Chapter 34: Fortune Telling Stall Starts Off Successfully
When Qi Xu heard the voice, he looked up and saw Ms. Li's complex expression, a mixture of anxiety and relief.
She cleared her throat deliberately, "Ms. Li, what's wrong? Did something happen to Lili?"
"No, no, Master, Lili is studying well at home."
"I came here this time to ask Master Guiyuan to help my friend find out what's strange about the new house she moved into."
Qi Xu felt that it was fortunate that he reacted quickly, otherwise he would have almost exposed his original voice.
"Oh? Tell me about it."
She knew that since Ms. Li looked so serious, something must be wrong or very serious.
"Master, how about you go with me and have my friend explain it to you in detail?"
After Ms. Li finished speaking, she immediately stood up and put the herbs on the table into her backpack.
Just in case, she temporarily stored the backpack when she returned the tables, chairs and benches to the management office.
Ms. Li politely invited her to get into a car driven by a special driver.
This was the first time Qi Xu had ridden in a car since his rebirth. It was a vintage car with a multi-curved exterior design.
The car turned left and right and finally stopped at an open space in front of a detached villa.
Qi Xu and Ms. Li got out of the car and were led in by a middle-aged man who looked like a butler.
When she reached the garden, in addition to a couple and their son, she also saw a familiar figure - Jiang Hongyi.
Qi Xu never thought that someone who didn't go home last night would make her meet him in the same place by coincidence.
As she walked forward, she kept encouraging herself not to be afraid and be bolder, as she had her own disguise.
He walked up to the couple and nodded politely. Before he could ask anything, the couple took the initiative to tell him the details of what happened.
"Master, please help us see what's going on in this room."
"Every time we sleep and rest, we often see a woman in our dreams who keeps chasing us away, saying that we are taking up her space."
"Whether it's me and my wife, or the elderly and children, we all have the same dream at different times. Now the elderly and children can't resist the shock and have a fever for no reason."
When the couple saw Qi Xu dressed in a Zhongshan suit, their credibility immediately increased.
Jiang Hongyi stood next to the couple and looked her up and down. She looked familiar to him.
"Okay, I'll go inside and take a look at the details."
Qi Xu didn't dare to look Jiang Hongyi in the eye. After listening to the couple's story, he was afraid that any unnecessary action would expose himself, so he went into the house to check.
Without any hesitation, the moment she stepped into the house, she realized that there was indeed a spreading evil spirit in the house.
"Little ghost, go upstairs and see if there are any ghosts or other beings like you."
Qi Xu pulled the little baby spirit off his head and told it to float upstairs to take a look, while he checked on the first floor.
Before she could take a few steps, the little baby spirit was strangled by the neck by the ghost of a woman with long flowing hair and wearing red clothes and thrown down the stairs.
"Where did you come from, little brat? Who gave you the guts to sneak into my house?"
Qi Xu looked at the ghost floating at the stairs and tried to communicate with her, "Beauty? Little beauty? Look carefully, this is not your mansion."
"Who are you? Who said this isn't my house?"
The female ghost in red raised her head, her long hair still blocking her eyes, and the ghostly aura around her became increasingly thicker.
In the blink of an eye, the house in front of Qi Xu changed instantly and turned into an antique space.
It goes without saying that this house should be the mansion that the female ghost mentioned.
"Are you sure this is your mansion? Can you please stop lying to yourself?"
Qi Xu felt that this female ghost had been living in the past and didn't want to face reality, so he made seals with his palms, chanted some incantations, and with a "break!" the room returned to its original appearance.
"No, this is clearly my family's residence, why has it become like this?"
The mantra she just recited was the Huaxu Mantra, which was specifically used to break through illusions. It also broke the illusion that the female ghost had blinded her eyes.
The ghost girl couldn't believe what she saw. She walked down the stairs tremblingly, touching the wall, "No, no, no."
Qi Xu thought that he had broken the illusion and the female ghost would be able to recognize reality, but she was defeated in the next second.
"You! It's all your fault! It's you who made my family's house become nothing! I'm going to kill you!"
The female ghost who was just staggering down the stairs suddenly appeared in front of her in an instant. One hand appeared like a flash and grabbed Qi Xu's neck, gradually tightening its grip while Qi Xu's feet left the ground.
Qi Xu's breathing stagnated. He put his hand on the ghost girl's wrist and found that the ghost girl had condensed into a physical body because of her great resentment.
She was inconsiderate and thought it was just an ordinary ghost. When she felt her breath getting weaker and weaker and she was almost suffocating, she grabbed the little baby spirit with her other hand and threw it directly at the female ghost's face.
The little baby spirit was still sleeping. When she shook it, it opened its eyes in a daze. It felt as if its body was about to fall. Its arms and legs subconsciously spread out and tightly grasped the female ghost's hair.
The ghost girl's vision was blocked, and the strength in her hand loosened by half. Qi Xu turned around and took it out from the ghost girl's palm.
Tsk tsk tsk, it seems we can’t treat each other with courtesy.
Qi Xu muttered something, and then a transparent cover directly covered the female ghost.
The ghost girl's movements were temporarily restricted, and she turned her palms over and formed seals to begin the art of salvation.
Although the baby spirit was also inside, only the female ghost reacted.
The golden light of the salvation technique emerged and rotated 360 degrees around the female ghost. Every time it rotated, the black energy on the female ghost's body became less.
“Ahhhhhhhhh!”
"No, I can't forget!"
At the same time, Qi Xu seemed to have returned to the time when the female ghost was alive hundreds of years ago.
It turns out that the female ghost was a rich girl a hundred years ago. She was loved by her parents and lived a happy life. Suddenly one day a man broke into her life. He was her father's new scholar and looked very gentle.
The scholar often came to his father's house to receive lessons, and the two became familiar with each other over time.
The scholar learned very quickly and could apply almost all knowledge to other situations. His father was very fond of him.
The female ghost gradually fell in love with the scholar and often observed him secretly, and the scholar also responded to her.
With the consent of their parents, the two got married, thinking that their future life would be as happy as it is now.
But the scholar went to Beijing to take the imperial examination and became the top scholar and got an official position. He became more and more cold towards the female ghost and finally received a letter of divorce.
The female ghost did not believe that the divorce letter in her hand was written by the scholar himself, so she went to confront him, causing the scholar to become furious and kill her by mistake.
In order to avoid being discovered, the scholar asked a Taoist priest to burn her body into ashes and sealed it in a jar.
