Chapter 386: Staying Overnight

Yoshiyuki was invited to spend the night at the couple's home.

The couple loves their pets so much.

There are several dogs and cats in the house.

Several of them were very enthusiastic, and when they saw Yi Xing, they ran over excitedly to play with him.

You have to rub them one by one to satisfy them.

He ate warm oatmeal, creamy stew, and fruit and felt suddenly full of energy.

When they saw that he was going to eat the fruit directly, the couple advised him not to do so.

They were going to skewer the fruits with iron skewers and roast them over the fire before letting him eat them, saying that eating them this way would make them less likely to catch the cold.

This is very similar to the thinking of some Europeans during a certain period in the Middle Ages.

It seems that fruit is a cooling food, so it must be cooked so as not to affect the body.

Vegetables, in turn, are considered to be of the thermal nature.

So for the sake of your health, it’s best to eat it raw.

Yoshiyuki thought it would be nice to bake fruits and eat them occasionally, so he accepted it.

In fact, baked apples coated with honey and golden in color are really delicious.

The soft and sweet taste will make you addicted after one bite!

Later, he also ate stewed plums.

The taste of this dish is not bad either. It's just that Yoshiyuki feels that the taste of plums is not as good as eating it normally.

As a rare opportunity, he washed all the clothes and prepared to dry them on the stove.

Both of them completely mistook Yoshiyuki for a woman.

Yoshiyuki wasn't sure of this at first. Because when they call him, they just say "Maekawa-san", so it's not clear how they know him.

It wasn't until they were discussing how to sleep at night that he figured out what they were thinking.

Since they only had one bed, they wanted to invite Yi Xing to squeeze in too. Let him sleep next to the woman and let her be responsible for separating Yi Xing and her husband.

Yoshiyuki felt that clarifying gender now would easily cause unnecessary trouble, so he simply declined the kindness.

He said he planned to sleep on a blanket near the fireplace tonight. Just cover the bed.

In this way, even if you still can't sleep on a bed, it will be much more comfortable than sleeping in the open.

The temperature in the forest is much lower than in the plains. Especially at night, it gives people a feeling that their souls are about to freeze.

Yoshiyuki felt that this might have something to do with the forest outside.

He couldn't help but look out the window - he didn't know whether he was hoping to see something terrible or hoping nothing would happen.

The moonlight is very dim tonight. The dark forest outside also adds a touch of mystery.

The treetops outside the window were dancing gently with the wind.

He was holding a calico cat in his arms, listening to the rustling of leaves, thinking whether everyone was safe now, and taking a sip of the black tea handed to him by the hostess.

Then almost vomited it out.

"Cough, cough." Yi Xing choked and coughed several times before he recovered: "Uh, this smell is...!"

"It contains herbs to treat colds." The hostess said gently, "Does it taste a bit unpleasant? Do you want to add some sugar?"

"Ah, no, thank you... I was scared because it was too sweet." Yi Xing smiled bitterly: "Can you give me some more tea to dilute it?"

"Uh-huh, okay—honey? Bring the teapot!"

"okay!"

As a result, more than just teapots were brought.

And desserts.

It is a kind of food made by rolling flour into rings, deep-frying them and then coating them with honey frosting.

After one sip, Yi Xing felt that his throat was about to burn.

This level of sweetness...is simply a lethal dose!

terrible.

Yi Xing was embarrassed to say that it was not delicious, and felt that he had to finish at least one, so he had to drink a lot of black tea without sugar.

During this period, they chatted a lot with Yoshiyuki about what they had experienced during the journey - of course, since Yoshiyuki had only been in this world for a few days and had to conceal his identity as a person from another world, he made up a lot of his experiences. .

He's pretty good at making up stories.

What was said made both the couple listen with concentration and excitement.

Among the few true stories Yi Xing told, the one that resonated most with them was the Maomao stop sign.

When the couple heard this, they were very happy and said that they also knew about this thing and it was really fun to masturbate. Occasionally I would go there and masturbate.

When Yoshiyuki heard this, he thought it probably meant that there was also a cat bus passing by in this forest.

So, he had a question - where did such a cute stop sign come from? Who is running the Cat Bus?

The couple is not very clear either.

All they know is that Kuon Township is full of cat buses.

It provides convenience for many people to travel, and both the stop sign and the car are so cute, so it is very popular.

There have even been cases where someone kidnapped a cat sign and took it home.

The main reason is that I think it's too cute.

"There are actually people who do such things..." Yi Xing clicked his tongue, feeling deeply.

Then, he asked again.

"Speaking of which. Are there many ghosts in this forest at night?"

Man: "Yes. It's always been like this here. That's why we call it the Forest of Ghosts."

Woman: "But there are many ghost forests in Jiuyuan Township! Have you heard of them in other places?"

Yoshiyuki: "Yeah... indeed."

Yoshiyuki: "Do ghosts indiscriminately attack people wandering outside late at night?"

Man: "Yes."

Woman: "We have been told since childhood that we cannot stay outside late at night. It is best to go inside as soon as it gets dark. If anything happens, we cannot go out again!"

Woman: "Otherwise, you might be taken away by a ghost and never come back. It's very scary!"

Yoshiyuki: "...That's it."

Yoshiyuki: "Does anyone always pass by this forest?"

Yoshiyuki: "Do people appear from time to time who don't know the details and are taken away by ghosts?"

Woman: "It happens occasionally...but most travelers know this taboo."

Man: "Yes. There are very few people who are as unclear as you are."

Man: "It is to prevent people like you from being killed that we put up notice boards everywhere in the forest. Even if you can't find a place to stay at night, hiding in a cave for a night is better than sleeping in the open."

Yoshiyuki: "Thank you very much...but I really didn't notice the sign before. Maybe I had already decided where to stay before I had time to see it."

Yoshiyuki: "Speaking of which, I'm worried about whether Yukikaze Maru is okay now..."

Woman: "It must be okay! Dogs won't be captured by ghosts."

Yoshiyuki: "This may be true for ordinary dogs. But if it has the same mind as a human, is it possible for its soul to be taken away?"

What Yoshiyuki said made both the host and hostess look at each other.

They didn't seem to know how to answer, and seemed extremely confused.
