When the Wen family's true daughter was found, she turned out to be a little charlatan from the mountains, full of nonsense. The entire circle waited to see her make a fool of herself.
Wi...
Wen Xi shook his head, "This time, I don't want money!"
Song Shilin asked in surprise, "No money? Then what do you want? I can find anything within my ability for you."
Wen Xi's eyes lit up, "That's what you said, I want the Devil's Hand!"
The devil's hand?
Song Shilin was shocked and said helplessly, "I really didn't lie to you. The Devil's Hand is not mine. It was left with me by a friend, and I later returned it to him. If you want it back, you have to ask him."
Wen Xi's eyes were bright, and she said crisply, "Haven't you noticed? It was from the devil's hand that a series of strange things happened to the Song family. Do you think that such a powerful ghost would suddenly send a red invitation to you brothers?"
Song Shilin was feeling uneasy and asked in a deep voice, "I know what you mean. You mean, it was the devil's hand that brought misfortune to our Song family!"
“It’s more than that.”
Wen Xi said with a half-smile, "Why did your friend leave the Devil's Hand with you at this time? Everything has its cause and effect. They are also sharing the bad luck. Their family... was in trouble a long time ago!"
After these words were spoken, Song Shilin's expression was so ugly that it could no longer be described.
Song Shiming had been standing by and listening quietly. Now he couldn't help but pull Song Shilin and whispered, "Brother, it's already this late. If Wen Xi hadn't saved me, I might have died. He's your lifesaver, so why don't you speak up?"
Song Shilin's face turned bitter. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Miss Wen, I need to go back and ask about this matter. If the other party agrees, I might be able to get the Devil's Hand and give it to you."
Wen Xi affirmed, "Don't worry, as long as you tell them that the Devil's Hand was given to me, only then can the evil consequences brought by the Devil's Hand be stopped, they will naturally agree."
Song Shilin nodded, "Okay, I understand."
Wen Xi stretched and said, "Okay, I'll wait for your news. The ghost domain has disappeared. I'm tired and sleepy now. I'll go back and take a shower and sleep. We'll talk another day!"
"Let me take you back."
“…Well, that’s fine.”
Wen Xi glanced at the deserted ancient town. It seemed that there was no way to get a taxi at this time, so he could only agree reluctantly.
"Wait, you guys are just leaving like that?"
Qu Lingling stopped them and stared at Wen Xi and said, "Sister Wen Xi, you can drive away ghosts, but you need to go to the Special Management Bureau to register and file. You should come with me."
“No time!”
Wen Xi swung his arms, walked towards the car, and said without turning his head, "If you really want to explore my ghost, why not let your director come here in person."
After saying that, he got into the car with the Song brothers and left.
Dust flew up, and Qu Lingling stared gloomily at the direction they had left, saying hatefully, "This Wen Xi may look young, but he's acting so arrogantly. He has such a powerful ghost around him. He's a ticking time bomb for Changjing City. I must report this to the director at the bureau and have him conduct a thorough investigation."
Yao Qianqian yawned and laughed at her, "Come on, Captain Qu, it's like a time bomb. If it weren't for the ghosts around Wen Xi taking action, you would be buried in the ghost domain and no one would know. Do you want to be an ungrateful wolf and stab me back? Tsk, you can talk, and so can I. When the time comes, I will naturally help Wen Xi clear the air!"
"Oh, by the way, Wen Xi will be a member of our group sooner or later. If you insist on going against her, you are actually going against our group. Just wait and see."
There was a smile on Yao Qianqian's lips, but there was no smile in her eyes. She said something harsh, turned around and left with Chen Zhao, waving at her behind her back.
Qu Lingling was furious. "Yao Qianqian, are you just leaving like that? We haven't even finished the finishing work yet."
"The Fifth Department is vying for merit, so Captain Qu will naturally be responsible for such a small matter. I'm going back to rest first. Bye!"
Yao Qianqian said without turning her head.
Qu Lingling stamped her feet in anger, her eyes growing colder. "Humph, the First Division actually wants to recruit Wen Xi, and even think of commanding that ghost spirit. Tsk, if it can't be used by me, it's better to get rid of it."

After leaving a bunch of health talismans and evil-dispelling talismans for the Song brothers, Wen Xi went home and went straight to his room, threw himself on the bed and took a nap.
I slept until dusk when I was woken up by a knock on the door.
"Xiao Xi, it's almost evening, aren't you going to get up and eat?"
Wen Qinglian's gentle voice came from outside the door. Wen Xi got up sleepily and walked to the door of the room to open it for her.
Wen Qinglian noticed the obvious dark circles under her eyes and said with pity, "Little sister, what have you been doing recently? Dad contacted the school and said you were on leave. You even slept at a classmate's house last night. I don't mean to interfere with you, but Dad is afraid that you might be led astray, so I had to ask."
Wen Xi rubbed his eyes, and his sleepy face lost its coldness and became more cute and adorable.
"No, I just have some things to deal with with my classmates. No one can lead me astray."
It's almost like she's leading others astray.
"Xiao Xi, come down and have dinner."
Wen Qingshan's cautious voice came from downstairs. Wen Qinglian blinked at her and showed a helpless smile.
The two sisters went downstairs to have dinner together. Wen Xi's eyes swept over Wen Qinglian again and again, and his hesitant expression made Wen Qinglian laugh.
Wen Qinglian said gently, "If you have anything to say to me, just say it."
Wen Xi sighed softly, staring at her eyebrows and said, "I told you last time that you encountered something unclean. Now, the black energy between your eyebrows and eyes is getting thicker. I'm afraid you have encountered something unclean, but it was blocked by the exorcism talisman I gave you."
Snap!
The chopsticks in Wen Qinglian's hand fell to the ground. She pursed her red lips and looked at Wen Xi with a complicated look.
Wen Qingshan asked quickly, "Is there really something wrong with the hotel?"
Wen Qinglian sighed helplessly, "Yes, Dad. It's a four-star hotel in the suburbs of Changjing City. Recently, there have been frequent reports of ghost stories. Guests staying at the hotel always say they've been pranked in the middle of the night and angrily demand to check out and get a refund. At first, I had no idea what was going on. I thought it was a professional bad reviewer, until these two days..."
"The ghost stories are getting more and more intense. There's even a paranormal broadcaster who checked in and said he wanted to livestream the haunting. Doesn't that affect our hotel's reputation? I stayed there with him, and we actually encountered something incredible."
When talking about this incident, the color on Wen Qinglian's face faded a lot, and she was obviously frightened.
"Really? There really are such things as ghosts?"
Wen Qingshan opened his mouth so wide in surprise that an egg could fit in it.
