Chapter 1129: Ghost Substitute, Recalling Something
Chi Shuyan was also quite curious about this. In fact, she had other ways of finding out what the boys had run into, but in the end, it was a matter of privacy. Without permission, she couldn’t rashly invade their privacy.
As for searching for Jin Ming and Fang Yinglong’s souls, that was fine, but that went against the heavens. Unless she had no other option, it was best to leave that until the last.
As the two chatted, the car stopped in front of the hospital.
Feng Yuanlin couldn’t help but shiver when he thought of what Shuyan had said about “ghost substitutes” and “ghost visitors.” Looking at the night sky outside, Feng Yuanlin shuddered for no reason and couldn’t help but say, “Shuyan, if that thing really is a ghost visitor, do you know where it is now? It won’t harm people again for now, right?”
Chi Shuyan took out a jade pendant from her pocket. This wasn’t a Level 1 magic weapon, but a rare Level 3 one. She gave it to Brother Feng and said, “That ghost thing was probably injured by the jade pendant around Jiang Duo’s neck. It should be fine for a day or two; it won’t harm anyone so soon. It’s just that I don’t know what this thing’s cultivation is like. If it is a little higher, I’m afraid the matter will be a little complicated and difficult.”
What worried her was that this thing could increase its cultivation by harming others.
“Then, what you said to Jiang Duo and the other boys before was just to comfort them?” Feng Yuanlin shivered and suddenly asked.
Chi Shuyan said, “As long as Jiang Duo is around, it’s unlikely that that thing will attack them. But now, I think they might not necessarily be the ones in the most danger.”
That thing had been tied down by water all this time. Once it came ashore, it could harm other people. This was what she was most worried about, and what she had yet to tell Brother Feng.
Chi Shuyan thought for a moment and felt that this matter was a little serious. She explained the possibility, and Feng Yuanlin’s face changed drastically. “Shuyan, are you saying that that thing can harm others?”
Chi Shuyan nodded. “Once it comes ashore, it can harm anyone it wants! It just depends on the other party’s luck!”
As for Jiang Duo, Xiao Ningjin and the others, they were just a little unluckier. That thing remembered them and treated them as ghost substitutes. If this thing wasn’t subdued, they would definitely die.
After listening to Shuyan, Feng Yuanlin realized that this matter was more serious than he thought. At the thought that this thing could harm people unscrupulously, Feng Yuanlin’s heart turned cold.
Before Brother Feng could come back to his senses, Chi Shuyan stuffed the pendant into Feng Yuanlin’s hand. “Brother Feng, let’s take advantage of when the other party is weak for the next day or two. If we can find that thing as soon as possible, we’ll get rid of it.”
Feng Yuanlin nodded. Since it had come to this, this was the only thing they could do. When he got out of the car, he realized that something was in his hand, and he was stunned when he saw the jade pendant.
He had seen the jade pendant around Jiang Duo’s neck before, and Feng Yuanlin had a vague guess. He heard Shuyan say, “Brother Feng, this jade pendant is good for the body and can exorcize evil spirits. Take it.”
Feng Yuanlin’s hand trembled and he was moved. Shuyan gave him such a big gift?
He now knew how good a thing this was! It was simply a life-saving treasure. Feng Yuanlin was moved. Zhenbai’s wife was really too good!
Afraid that Brother Feng would be polite with her, Chi Shuyan deliberately said, “Brother Feng, I’ve given this to other people, but I got to know you later. You won’t be angry if I make up for it today, right?”
Since she had already said that, Feng Yuanlin didn’t argue. Besides, he really coveted the jade pendant. He gratefully accepted it and put it in his pocket. He touched it again and again, and felt uneasy, so he directly put it around his neck.
Chi Shuyan had initially wanted to give Brother Feng’s mother a few bracelets infused with spiritual energy, but when she thought about how Brother Feng’s mother pressured him to marry Qin Qing, Chi Shuyan didn’t have a good impression of her at all. As for Father Feng, Chi Shuyan made up her mind to give him a gift at some point.
“By the way, Shuyan, didn’t you say before that you don’t have any more of these jade pendants?” Feng Yuanlin suddenly asked. Those boys had been begging Shuyan for the pendants before, and even said that it didn’t matter how much they cost. Shuyan wasn’t moved, which showed that this thing was a real treasure, and probably wasn’t cheap.
Because of the herbs in the Cosmos Ring, Chi Shuyan had pretty much used up all the magic weapon jade pendants infused with spiritual energy. Chi Shuyan said that these were the only jade pendants she had. Feng Yuanlin was even more moved. Did Shuyan have to be so good to him?
“Okay, Brother Feng, let’s go to the hospital first. We’ll talk as we go!”
Feng Yuanlin’s heavy feelings had been lightened a little by this jade pendant.
When the two entered Wei Panyang’s ward, Jiang Duo, Xiao Ningjin, Chang Hao and Xiong Luoying were sitting beside him, but Father and Mother Wei weren’t around.
When Jiang Duo and the others saw Chi Shuyan, they were enthusiastic and hurriedly called out, “Master Chi!”
The boys competed to be the loudest. It was only when Feng Yuanlin told them to be quiet that they became obedient and settled down.
On the side, Wei Panyang was a bit at a loss when he saw Jiang Duo and the others greet Chi Shuyan enthusiastically. Compared with his previous agitated appearance, however, he was calmer now, though there was still fear in his eyes.
Chi Shuyan glanced at him and saw that he was indeed scared out of his wits. Back when she first met Wei Panyang, this kid had been so arrogant, but now, he looked very docile.
Seeing that the other party’s condition had stabilized, Chi Shuyan curled her lip and said, “Can I ask you something?”
Wei Panyang’s face was very haggard. Hearing her words, his eyes subconsciously revealed fear and reluctance.
Chi Shuyan didn’t beat around the bush and got straight to the point. She asked him what happened at Swan Lake.
Who would have thought that although Wei Panyang’s face was haggard, he at least had some energy left. Who would have thought that as soon as she finished speaking, he suddenly screamed, and his eyes immediately rolled back. His breathing was rapid, and he looked like he would faint from lack of breath.
It was only when Feng Yuanlin hurriedly pinched Wei Panyang that he didn’t faint. He slumped onto the bed, his eyes filled with endless fear. Panting non-stop, he spat out, “I don’t know anything!”
Seeing Wei Panyang like this, Chi Shuyan couldn’t ask anymore. Seeing Wei Panyang’s tragic state, Feng Yuanlin could only give up.
Chi Shuyan’s eyes flashed. Seeing that Wei Panyang wasn’t cooperating, she planned to reach out and touch him to understand some things. However, just as she did so, Wei Panyang dodged her hand with a pale face and screamed non-stop. Not long after, Father and Mother Wei came in, and she could only give up.
Father and Mother Wei jumped in fright when they heard their son’s screams. As soon as the two came in, Feng Yuanlin was afraid that Father and Mother Wei would misunderstand Shuyan, so he explained on her behalf.
Father and Mother Wei also knew that their son had been stimulated by something and was especially cowardly now, so they didn’t think much of it.
Xiao Ningjin suddenly whispered, “Master Chi, I remembered something in the afternoon!”
