I Wasn't Born Lucky

Chapter 71

The water ghost's head fell back and the mouth covered with dense fangs opened slightly, as if it was gasping with pain. Then the next second, it showed the ferocious nature of a ghost that wanted revenge.

The ghost born in water opened its mouth and the arc exceeded the limits of humanity. It was like a prehistoric giant crocodile that could swallow a person's upper body in one bite. A great deal of seawater poured from its mouth. The water ghost leaned down, green eyes flashing with a bitter light as it tried to swallow Xiao Li.

Xiao Li took a step back and threw away the hair stuck on the king crab. He pulled one of the claws and stuck it into the mouth of the incoming water ghost. It was too late for the water ghost to retreat. The claws directly punctured its mouth and it stepped back. It pulled the claws out of its mouth and covered its mouth with both hands.

The weakness of the ghost led Xie Zeqing to feel its emotions more deeply. The young man stared at it incredulously before expressing the thoughts he sensed.

"It...it hurts. It feels like its mouth is going to be broken and it doesn't want to come to this ship anymore."

Xie Zeqing finished translating and felt like a bit of his three views had been destroyed. Normally, if humans encountered ghosts then they would just cry out and say, "I don't want to come here anymore"

Why did he feel like he was translating the wrong person?

Xiao Li was unmoved. He looked at the crab claw soaked in seawater. It had been pulled out of the mouth of the water ghost and couldn't be eaten anymore. He turned his gaze to the water ghost. His usual indifferent or curious eyes were now carefully examining the water ghost from top to bottom, like it was a seafood feast.

Xiao Li's left hand held the king crab and he first looked around in a circle. Then his right hand pulled out a scalpel. It was the scalpel he received from the hospital and he pondered on where to start.

Xie Zeqing gulped. In this situation, he shouldn't have an appetite so he stopped Xiao Li. "Wait, you really want to eat it?"

Xiao Li raised the fat and beautiful king crab to Xie Zeqing, wondering, "Why can't I eat it?"

"It... it is a ghost. Won't there be germs?" Xie Zeqing nervously speculated. Then Xie Zeqing sensed that after his remark, the water ghost stared at him in a gloomy manner, making Xie Zeqing shrink back.

Xiao Li replied, "There are layers of shell. It shouldn't be infected."

He also had such concerns so he gave up on the octopus hot pot and chose the king crab. Xiao Li spoke while tapping on the shell of the king crab with a scalpel. He had just knocked on it three times when a shadow appeared.

The sudden appearance of the shadow caused even the water ghost to be startled. The ghost looked like a normal human apart from the long scarf that covered most of her face. She was the split mouthed woman from the hospital instance.

Xie Zeqing at first thought she was a reincarnator summoned by Xiao Li to this world but the large ghost energy accompanying her made him realize that she definitely wasn't human. His brain exploded and he subconsciously tried to hide.

The split mouthed woman raised her eyes to Xie Zeqing and slowly took off the scarf, revealing her torn mouth. "Do you think I'm beautiful?"

Xie Zeqing, "....."

He choked nervously and the tattoo on his arm moved up and down.

The split mouthed girl asked again, "Am I beautiful?"
