Dong Yuanxiang was dumbfounded: "When did a fertility goddess appear in this neighborhood?"

How could she not know?

"You didn't know?" The fashionable woman was somewhat surprised: "The elevator floor you just pressed is the floor where the Goddess of Fertility lives."

"This goddess who grants children is very popular online. People who come to her seeking children say she is very effective. As long as you sincerely pray, you can get pregnant within a month!"

Once the fashionable woman starts talking, she can't stop: "My husband and I have been trying to conceive for three years and we still haven't gotten pregnant. We went to the hospital for a checkup, and the doctors said there was nothing wrong with our bodies."

"I have no physical problems but I just can't conceive. So when I came across a post about the Goddess of Fertility, I thought I'd give it a shot, no matter what."

Who knows, she might get pregnant after asking for it?

The old lady standing behind the fashionable woman couldn't help but exclaim, "Young lady, you've really come to the right place! Let me tell you, this Goddess of Fertility is truly powerful!"

"My wife's child was conceived through prayer to the Goddess of Fertility, and the due date is next month!"

The fashionable woman looked delighted: "Really? Auntie, tell me, what taboos should we observe when visiting the Goddess of Fertility..."

The two started chatting in the elevator.

Besides them, another young couple also showed some joy on their faces and couldn't help but chime in with a few words.

These women all came seeking children.

Meng Qingwan had already taken out her phone and was searching for posts about the Goddess of Fertility on Xiaohongshu (Little Red Book).

This search did indeed find a post praising and recommending a very effective master. The poster said that her husband had oligospermia and would have a hard time conceiving in his lifetime.

But her family was pressuring her to have a child, especially since her husband's grandmother was getting sick and her only wish was to hold her grandson before she passed away.

Her parents were particularly ignorant, believing that the inability to have children was mostly the woman's fault, so all the pressure was placed on her.

Feeling frustrated and helpless, the poster posted online for help. Unexpectedly, a master contacted her and said he could help her get pregnant. She went to the address the master gave her, and a month later, she really got pregnant!

Most of the comments were skeptical, and the poster's latest post was a response to those skeptics.

In addition to the text, the post also included a photo: a half-body shot of a woman with a large pregnant belly. In the photo, Meng Qingwan saw a red cloth doll placed on the table behind her.

This red rag doll is exactly the same as the evil spirit doll that Yuanman just subdued!

Meng Qingwan was startled and quickly handed her the phone: "Yuanman, look!"

Nan Yuanman tiptoed and took a look. In that instant, he noticed something was off about the woman in the photo.

The child in her womb wasn't a legitimately reincarnated child at all! It was a wicked ghost that had sneaked in through improper means of reincarnation and committed countless evil deeds!

The woman in the photo has had her luck almost completely drained by the evil spirit in her womb—no, the evil baby. When the evil baby is born, that will be the time of her death!

Nan Yuanman's round face instantly darkened. She had thought that the goddess of fertility they were talking about was something like a guardian spirit, but now it seemed that this goddess of fertility was not a good thing at all!

While Meng Qingwan and Nan Yuanman were reading the post, the elevator stopped.

Dong Yuanxiang hurriedly got out of the elevator and ran straight to Gao Jingjing's house.

When they arrived at Gao Jingjing's door, Dong Yuanxiang belatedly realized that the fashionable woman and the young couple had also followed her and were standing at the door with her.

Dong Yuanxiang was stunned. Pointing to the door, she asked the fashionable woman, her voice hoarse, "You...you said this is where the Goddess of Fertility lives?"

The fashionable woman took out her phone, glanced at the address, and nodded affirmatively: "Yes."

"Aren't you all here to see the Goddess of Fertility too?"

Dong Yuanxiang's vision went black. When did her best friend become a goddess who grants children? How come she didn't know?!

Could it be... that my best friend was already harmed by that eerie doll? Or is she possessed by a ghost?!

Thinking about this, Dong Yuanxiang panicked. She didn't even bother ringing the doorbell, and instead pounded on the door: "Jingjing! Jingjing! Open the door! It's me, Yuanxiang! Open the door quickly! I need to talk to you urgently!"

The fashionable woman called out twice, frowned, and stepped forward to stop Dong Yuanxiang, telling her not to be so impolite. What if she angered the Goddess of Fertility and she stopped giving them children?

She was stopped by Lou Yuqi as soon as she stepped forward: "Auntie, don't worry, my mom and Aunt Jingjing are friends, she won't be angry."

Just then, the sound of rustling footsteps came from inside, accompanied by an impatient, hoarse female voice: "Coming, stop taking pictures."

The door creaked open from the inside, and Gao Jingjing, wearing a beige nightgown and holding a red plush toy, appeared in the doorway, rubbing her eyes.

Before she could ask Dong Yuanxiang why she had suddenly come to her door, the red-clothed doll she was holding suddenly screamed, "Danger! Danger! Danger! Run!"

The scream, carrying a powerful sonic wave, knocked the fashionable woman and the young couple unconscious.

Dong Yuanxiang and Meng Qingwan were also feeling unwell, their faces pale and their heads buzzing. Lou Yuqi couldn't bear it any longer and covered his ears.

Nan Yuanman took out a talisman, flicked her wrist to ignite it, and the talisman transformed into a light golden shield that protected Dong Yuanxiang and the others.

Then she pulled out the copper coin sword and stared menacingly at Gao Jingjing and the red cloth doll in her hand.

Gao Jingjing was horrified: "!!!"

She instinctively closed the open door and hurriedly ran inside.

Just as the door was about to close, it was stopped by a small, chubby, white hand. Nan Yuanman kicked off with her foot and shot like a cannonball directly at the red-clothed doll that Gao Jingjing was holding: "You bad guy! Die!"

The red-clad rag doll unleashed a powerful ghostly aura, blocking Nan Yuanman's copper coin sword.

Gao Jingjing was thrown back by the sudden burst of ghostly energy and landed awkwardly on the sofa.

The two little ones started fighting right there in the room. While fighting, Nan Yuanman also summoned Zhuangzhuang, Xiaocao, Baiyi, and a few others to gang up on her!

The red-clad doll was stunned by the blow, and she screamed angrily, "Who are you?! Why did you come to ruin my plans?!"

Nan Yuanman retorted loudly, "Stop talking nonsense! What kind of good deed have you done! You're clearly doing bad things! Throwing evil spirits into the stomachs of innocent people, you're wicked!"

The red-clad doll choked. Could the good things she talked about be the same as the good things this little brat was talking about?!

Nanmanyuan's attack became even more swift, but Zhou Jingchuan and his group were not to be outdone.

The red-clothed doll gritted her teeth in hatred. "Damn it, where did these perverts come from?!"

As she was sent flying again, the red-clad doll couldn't take it anymore and turned to shout at Gao Jingjing, who was struggling to sit up from the sofa, "Mommy, save me!!"

Gao Jingjing covered her head and looked over, only to see Nan Yuanman about to stab the red-clothed doll in the chest with the copper coin sword in his hand.

"Lingling!" Gao Jingjing was terrified. She screamed and rushed over, using her back to shield the red-clothed doll.

Nanmanyuan: "!!"
