Quick Transmigration: Don't Let an Honest Man Become a Villainous Supporting Female Character

The eerie wind in the courtyard vanished instantly, as did the plaintive weeping.

Ji Chaoxi sat on the threshold, looking somewhat bewildered.

If Xie Qingyan can see her, why doesn't he pay attention to her during the day? Does he know that she has been following him all the way?

After a long time, sounds finally came from inside the house.

Ji Chaoxi tentatively touched the door, then floated inside.

Xie Qingyan was wearing only a thin shirt. When she saw Ji Chaoxi, she paused for a moment but didn't say anything.

Ji Chaoxi sat obediently in the corner: "Master Xie, do you know I've been following you all day?"

Xie Qingyan took a sip of tea and calmly said, "I know."

"Then why don't you kill me?" Ji Chaoxi asked, somewhat puzzled.

"This humble Taoist priest only slays evil spirits that indiscriminately kill the innocent and are bloodthirsty by nature."

Xie Qingyan is drawing talismans again.

"But I did a lot of bad things. I sucked a lot of meat from the old lady's house, and I always pretended to be a ghost to scare people. I even lay on top of them to scare them!"

Xie Qingyan finally put down his brush and calmly looked at Ji Chaoxi: "Does the young lady need this humble Taoist priest to help her pass on to the afterlife?"

Ji Chaoxi quickly shook her head: "I don't want to be saved. I just want to do bad things and die at your hands."

Xie Qingyan said calmly, "Then the young lady should find someone else."

Ji Chaoxi remained silent.

Ji Chaoxi was still sitting in the corner when Xie Qingyan turned off the light and prepared to go to bed.

Xie Qingyan looked at her quietly.

Ji Chaoxi said sincerely, "Humans and ghosts shouldn't have a gender distinction, right?"

These are no longer the same species.

Xie Qingyan didn't say anything, but silently went to sleep.

The next morning, Zhao the landlord woke up very early. He was terrified by the eerie wind he had heard the night before, and he could still faintly hear the female ghost crying.

"Master, you must catch that ghost! If you don't catch it, I won't be able to sleep a wink all day," Zhao the landlord said, wiping away his tears.

Xie Qingyan looked at him calmly: "Patriarch Zhao, there is no need to worry. I will do my best."

Upon hearing Xie Qingyan's words, Zhao the wealthy man was immediately relieved.

"Thank you, Master Xie. Let me take you to have breakfast."

Xie Qingyan nodded: "Please wait a moment, Patriarch Zhao."

Then Zhao the wealthy man watched as Xie Qingyan lit a talisman. He didn't know what it was, and he didn't dare to ask.

The more you know, the sooner you die.

Master Xie burned it, so he must have had his reasons.

Ji Chaoxi excitedly rushed over: "It's the power of last night's wish."

Xie Qingyan is such a kind person; he didn't forget her even when he went to eat.

Dying at Xie Qingyan's hands could be considered a peaceful end.

When Ji Chaoxi finished absorbing the power of the vow and found Xie Qingyan, the Zhao family head was introducing the dishes on the table to Xie Qingyan.

Ji Chaoxi didn't understand, she only knew that these dishes were too expensive for ordinary people.

"Thank you, Master Xie. You can try this dish first," said the Zhao family head with a smile.

Just as Ji Chaoxi was about to take a sip, Xie Qingyan stopped her with his chopsticks.

Ji Chaoxi paused for a moment, then sucked on the food on his chopsticks.

"It is too sweet."

Xie Qingyan ate it without changing his expression. The Zhao family head couldn't tell whether Xie Qingyan thought it was delicious or not. He felt that these things didn't seem to have any flavor to Xie Qingyan.

"Master Xie, what do you think?"

Xie Qingyan nodded: "Very good, thank you for your hospitality, Patriarch Zhao."

Patriarch Zhao quickly replied, "It's what I should do, thank you, Daoist Master."

Ji Chaoxi didn't dare to suck directly, because she was afraid that if Zhao Dahu picked up the dish she had sucked, he would faint from fright again.

Ji Chaoxi hesitated for a moment, then pointed to the dish in the middle and looked at Xie Qingyan expectantly.

Xie Qingyan paused for a moment, then picked up a piece. Ji Chaoxi immediately took a sip, her eyes lighting up.

"tasty!"

Looking at the dishes Xie Qingyan had picked up, Zhao Dahu gained some understanding of Xie Qingyan's preferences and planned to cook more next time.

Ji Chaoxi enjoyed her meal, but she suddenly realized that the food she had sucked on had no flavor, and Xie Qingyan had just eaten so much.

"Thank you, Master Xie, I think I'd better not eat it." Ji Chaoxi said with a worried look as she sat down next to him.

"It's nothing," Xie Qingyan said calmly.

Zhao, the wealthy man opposite, was stunned for a moment, then immediately became happy.

"Are you really alright, Master Xie? I can finally relax now."

"I asked someone to inquire, and Granny Wang will be back tomorrow. I'll need your help to talk to her then."

Xie Qingyan nodded: "Of course."

Ji Chaoxi complained in a low voice, "Wang the witch has so many little devils. They always steal my wish power. Master Xie, you have to teach her a good lesson."

Several times she managed to grab the wish power first, only to have it snatched away by those little devils.

"Master Zhao, I've heard there's a female ghost in the village," Xie Qingyan suddenly said.

When this was mentioned, the head of the Zhao family had a lot to say: "Master Xie, there is indeed a female ghost in the village, and she's an unlucky one at that."

"She was an orphan who had been alone since she was a child. One day, she tripped over a stone on the road and fell to her death."

"The Taoist priests who came before all said that she died too young, so her resentment was particularly strong. The villagers were very afraid of her, and from then on, she kept wandering around the village."

Xie Qingyan listened thoughtfully.

Ji Chaoxi proudly patted her chest: "That's me."

Xie Qingyan: ...

"Where is her body now?" Xie Qingyan frowned.

Zhao, the wealthy man, shook his head: "I heard it was carried away and eaten by wolves."

He couldn't help but remark, "I've never seen such an unlucky person in my life."

Ji Chaoxi sat down beside her with a melancholy expression: "When I woke up, I couldn't find my body."

Xie Qingyan pondered for a moment: "If the body was eaten by wolves, then there will be no ghosts in the village. The girl's body must be hidden somewhere."

Zhao, the wealthy man, looked at him in surprise: "Master Xie, are you going to find that female ghost's corpse?"

Xie Qingyan nodded: "Poor thing, this humble Taoist wishes to perform a ritual to help that young lady find peace."

Ji Chaoxi panicked: "I don't want to be saved, I don't want to be saved, I don't want to be reincarnated, I just want my soul to be scattered!"

What's wrong with Xie Qingyan? Why does she insist on helping every ghost she encounters to pass on to the afterlife?

But no matter what she said, Xie Qingyan ignored her and now wouldn't even look at her.

Ji Chaoxi was a little angry. She blew a few breaths on his back, and even the Zhao family head opposite her felt the chill, but Xie Qingyan didn't feel it at all.

She pressed herself directly onto his back.

A person being pressed down on by a ghost feels as if their entire body is filled with cement, experiencing a chilling, bone-deep sensation from head to toe.

As soon as the Zhao family head approached Xie Qingyan, he suddenly felt a chill. He shivered and immediately moved away from Xie Qingyan.

Xie Qingyan followed the Zhao family head towards the Linqin Garden. The person on his back kept fidgeting, so Xie Qingyan sighed helplessly and steadied her a little.

"Young lady, you're going to strangle me to death."
