Chapter 19: The Faceless Ghost
When she first saw this face, Shen Yijin took a half step back in shock.
When did this ghost appear in the villa?
Why didn't she notice anything?
"What do you want from me?" Shen Yijin was confused and uncertain, but she did not look flustered, and asked the ghost calmly.
The face-faced ghost actually laughed in a low voice. Its voice was penetrating, and the sharp sound penetrated the eardrum. Shen Yijin had to temporarily block her hearing.
After laughing for a while, the expression on the ghost's face changed, from an old and aged face to a girl's face that was almost the same as Shen Yijin.
It urged the Yin Qi around it and wrapped Shen Yijin: "Didn't you want to find me just now? No need to bother, I'll come to find you."
As soon as Shen Yijin unlocked her blocked hearing, she heard these words.
The astonishment in her eyes could not be concealed. This ghost was actually the thing that was pestering the female white-collar worker just now?
This way, it can be explained.
It wasn't exactly a ghost, so she couldn't sense its ghostly aura and wasn't able to detect its presence in time.
Chen Yijin stretched out her hand and vaguely grasped a wisp of Yin Qi: "Are you willing to tell me the truth? What is going on with that company?"
The ghost didn't answer: "I thought you wanted to know more about my relationship with you."
Shen Yijin was silent. It seemed that this guy knew a lot.
"I have one of your emotions here, so I know you very well. Besides you, there are others." The face ghost was concise and to the point. Based on a single emotion, it could connect with Shen Yijin's other emotions, and then determine what Shen Yijin really wanted to know.
It eats "love" among Shen Yijin's seven emotions, or more precisely, the part of love that is about love.
As long as this emotion remains with the Face-Skinned Ghost, Shen Yijin will never understand how to love someone.
The ghost with this kind of emotion has more humanity.
It has experienced too many emotions, most of which are negative emotions such as "anger", "desire" and "hatred". The positive emotions like "love" that it feels the most come from Shen Yijin.
This time, when it chased after him, in addition to sensing that Shen Yijin wanted to find it, it also wanted to take in some of Shen Yijin's emotions.
It’s really uncomfortable to be surrounded by negative emotions all day long.
Shen Yijin felt the Yin energy in his hand drilling into his body, so he quickly let go of his hand.
She felt a surge of anger in her heart that the face-skin ghost actually wanted to take away her Yin energy.
The Face Ghost sensed Shen Yijin's emotions and was very puzzled: "Why, we have made a deal before."
Shen Yijin gave it emotions, and it did something for Shen Yijin.
It worked before, why doesn't it work this time?
Shen Yijin was stunned when he heard this. The original owner knew the Face Ghost before and had made a deal with it.
Shen Yijin searched through all the memories left by the original owner, but did not find this memory.
The original owner had lost too much memory and had very little useful information.
Without previous memories as a reference, Shen Yijin could only bite the bullet and bluff: "I made a deal with you before because I had something I wanted you to do. But now I can handle what I want to do by myself and don't need your help, so I don't want to make a deal with you."
The ghost made meaningless "gurgling" sounds from his mouth, as if expressing his dissatisfaction.
"You haven't done what you wanted to do yet, so why don't you need my help? It only requires a little bit of emotion." The Yin energy was surging around the face ghost, and Shen Yijin felt that it wanted to devour him.
If it weren't for the merits in Shen Yijin suppressing it, she might have been swallowed by the face ghost by now.
Shen Yijin was not frightened by the ghost. She asked calmly, "Do you know what my wish is? Can you really help me realize it?"
The negative energy calmed down, and the ghost became much calmer.
It thought Shen Yijin was unwilling to make a deal with it and was doubting its ability: "I don't know your wish, but I can help you realize it. I did what you asked me to do before. During that time, Nan Zichen loved you very much."
Chen Yijin was speechless. Why did the original owner use "love" to exchange for Nan Zichen's love for her? In this way, even if Nan Zichen fell in love with her, she could no longer love anyone. Isn't this a loss?
Could the original owner’s wish really be related to Nan Zichen?
But, if she gave up even "love", what connection would she still have with Nan Zichen?
Shen Yijin discovered that after seeing the face ghost, the doubts in her heart not only did not decrease, but increased.
After talking for a long time, she still didn't know what the original owner's wish was, and the ghost didn't answer the question she asked before.
No, she felt that she couldn't get the answer she wanted from the Face-Skinned Ghost, so she still had to go to that company.
"You're still unwilling to make a deal." The Face-Skinned Ghost sensed Shen Yijin's emotions and became extremely angry.
Its current mood is not very good. If it does not want to become a complete tool, it must consume more positive emotions.
No matter what, it must get Shen Yijin's emotions today!
The face of the face ghost kept changing, and the Yin energy turned into a solid entity, turning into thick tentacles and attacking Shen Yijin.
Shen Yijin's body was shining with golden light. Once the Yin energy approached, it would be burned by the golden light and gradually dissipated.
But the ghost with murderous intent didn't care at all. It kept releasing its negative energy, trying to break through the defense line of the golden light of merit, enter Shen Yijin's sea of consciousness and take away all her positive emotions.
Cold sweat broke out on Shen Yijin's forehead. After all, she had just arrived in this world, she hadn't established herself yet, and her cultivation was not enough.
The face ghost has too many and too complicated emotions, which can easily disturb her. If she is wrapped in negative emotions, she will not be able to escape today.
Shen Yijin formed seals with his hands and used the power of merit to continuously draw defensive formations.
This trick worked at first, but as the negative energy grew, cracks appeared in the formation, and finally it shattered and disappeared.
The Yin Qi tentacles wrapped around Shen Yijin's neck, waist and limbs. Shen Yijin was restrained and temporarily unable to move.
The ghost laughed again: "You are still so weak, you dare to reject me!"
Shen Yijin gasped with difficulty. At the critical moment of life and death, a similar scene appeared in her mind.
It turned out that the original owner was just like her, she was forced to make a deal with the Face-Skin Ghost. If she didn't make the deal, she would die.
That's why she chose to trade with "joy", choosing the emotion that was the least important to her.
What love-brain? The original owner never liked Nan Zichen from the beginning to the end!
No wonder, the original owner didn't hate Nan Zichen and Shen Yihe even though she lost her life after being framed by them. She didn't even love them, so how could she hate them?
But, wasn’t the original owner too calm when making the deal with the Face-Skinned Ghost?
Does she have a backup plan?
Before Shen Yijin could figure it out, she had double vision in front of her eyes, her brain was swollen and painful, her chest seemed to be cut open by something, and her heartbeat was no longer regular.
Before Shen Yijin completely lost consciousness, she had only one thought: she did not die in the thunder tribulation, and she was about to die at the hands of the face-skin ghost only a week after arriving in the alien world.
Shen Yijin didn't know that after she fell into a coma, the face ghost didn't get the positive emotions it wanted. Shen Yijin, who was originally restrained by it, released a powerful pressure, shattering the negative energy surrounding her.
"Get lost! I told you before, don't come looking for me again!" Shen Yijin's pupils turned into a seductive red, and the golden light of merit disappeared, replaced by extreme black.
