Chapter 34
Yes, I did say I don’t want you to die, but I also didn’t want you to give up on yourself and abuse yourself!
Man, can you please pull yourself together? Quickly accept the fact that you can't control yourself and will kill me, then stand up again, preferably straighten your back and break free from Qu Yesi's control!
In the end, this matter seems too difficult. I doubt whether he can live a decent life now. Without external intervention, this will not work.
Calm down. Since I have decided to stay for a while, I must change this situation.
The level of brain pressure now is comparable to my senior high school exams, and even more urgent.
During the days I accompanied Chu Yingyu back to Taohua Village, seeing him like a beggar, I felt distressed and tried to find a way to integrate all the information I had experienced and knew here.
Sometimes reason makes people more clear-headed. Gradually, I figured out the current situation.
The one most likely to make a breakthrough is Zhang Shan. The moment she saw me, it could be because of her necromancy, or it could be because she was near death, so she was able to feel more.
Combining the two times Chu Yingyu seemed to hear what I said, both times his life was hanging by a thread and he was about to lose.
When you are close to death, you can only see me?
Maybe, I can not only make dying people see, but also possess them.
I can't return to my own body for now. I need a chance. I can choose someone else's body to try. I have tried to enter Chu Yingyu's body and passed through it completely!
The young man who worked hard but shed no tears returned to Taohua Village crying these days. After entering the house, he wanted to rush directly to the room where the ice coffin was placed, but he stopped and obediently chopped wood to boil water.
After cleaning himself up, Chu Yingyu walked into the house. If the ice coffin was not so wide that only one person could lie in it, he would probably lie in it with me.
Someone is holding my hand, not knowing that my soul is floating above his head.
Chu Yingyu had completely calmed down and no longer had any unnecessary or strange behavior. I felt relieved and flew to the old doctor's clinic to see the key person now.
Zhang Shan, you must hold on!
After entering the room through the wall, Zhang Shan's weak cough could be heard from time to time. Xiao Ruoyin stayed by the bedside without leaving, and he looked a little sad and regretful.
The young man held Zhang Shan's hand tightly, not letting go for a moment. His situation was a bit like Chu Yingyu's, but he was obviously much more normal.
The old doctor called Xiao Ruoyin outside the door, probably to discuss the treatment plan, or to prepare for the funeral?
Zhang Shan seemed to have heard it too. She opened her eyelids tiredly, pushed her junior brother beside the bed, and urged him to hurry up in a low voice.
The only people left in the room were me, a ghost, and Zhang Shan, who was about to die.
Landing myself, I slowly approached the head of her bed, trying to approach in a friendly manner. If I scared her to death, it would really not be worth it.
"I seem to have seen a ghost again."
There was a flicker in Zhang Shan's eyes. She raised her head slightly and tried to reach out and touch me.
This time I was extremely calm and didn't say anything immediately. Instead, I waited for her to adapt on her own.
"It seems that I am really dying, and I can even have this kind of hallucination."
"Alas, I will not be able to take responsibility for the rest of my junior brother's life."
She spoke with some self-mockery and regret, then lowered her hands and stared blankly into the void.
"Zhang Shan?"
“…”
"Zhang Shan!"
"It's over. I even saw a ghost talking to me."
Ah! I'm talking to Zhang Shan, and she can hear me! I'm not in single-player mode anymore!
"Yes, I'm talking to you, I'm..."
"It seems that I am about to die."
"Not really. I'm Qin Xiao'e! Do you remember?"
Restraining my excitement, I leaned over the head of her bed and asked in a low voice. Zhang Shan blinked, and with all her remaining strength, she pulled the quilt over her head, like an ostrich, intending to fall asleep.
No! What's with your evasive attitude?
"Hey! Look at me! Don't stay stuck under the covers!"
"The Soul Catcher is here to take souls away."
"No! I'm Qin Xiao'e! I exchanged clothes with your junior brother, was forced to help you, and you also gave me the Lost Soul Powder!"
The ball covered in the quilt moved, and after a moment, half of the woman's face popped out from inside, like some small animal on guard near its nest, pitiful and cute.
"Yes, I am Qin Xiao'e. Think about it carefully. I am not a ghost, nor a soul-catcher. I will not hurt you!"
"I think I remember something."
"You and your junior brother were hiding from the Xuanyin Cult at that time! After changing clothes, you stopped my horse? It was probably last winter!"
As her memories came back, Zhang Shan felt a sense of familiarity when she looked at me, no longer avoiding or fearing me.
"But, isn't your name Li Si?"
“…”
Oops, I forgot my settings in the excitement.
I scratched my head and smiled innocently: "Haha, I lied to you at that time. My name is Qin Xiao'e, and the pseudonym I used is Li Si."
"Then you look like you're dead?"
“…Uh, yes.”
"It seems that I am about to die, and you are going to take away my soul."
"No! I'm really not the Black and White Impermanence of the Underworld! I'm not the Ox-Headed and Horse-Faced Impermanence either. I'm indeed dead, but my soul has been wandering around the world!"
"Hey, Xiao'e, you look like you died a violent death, which is why your soul is stuck in the world of the living. In my current state, I can't avenge you. I'll let my junior brother do justice for you."
"Don't avenge me. It was Chu Yingyu who killed me."
"...You can't kill him. Wait, what is your relationship with Chu Yingyu?" Zhang Shan looked at me in shock and confusion, and didn't quite understand the connection.
"I was his wife. He was bewitched and killed me. Then he went to the Xuanyin Sect to get the Ice Jade and met you. I know all this."
Zhang Shan's expression was indescribable. She was stunned for a moment and said, "Bewitched? Is there something wrong with Chu Yingyu?"
"He was bewitched by the Lord of the Eightfold Palace a long time ago, so his mind is a little unclear."
Zhang Shan: "I feel like I've heard a lot of things that are hard to digest. I'm tired."
Me: “Hold on a little longer!”
"It's too difficult. I was hit by the Flame Frost Palm. The old doctor Yao Baicao was able to keep me alive for so long, but it was stolen time. I know I'm dying soon."
"No! I haven't seen Wu Yunran yet. You still have a chance!"
"The Medicine King's last disciple? The world is so vast, where can I find him?"
"I know! I have a plan now. Let's work together! Zhang Shan, you don't want to die, and I have unfulfilled wishes too. Plus, you said before that you wanted to repay me, so let's do it now!"
"You're really good at calculating. I'm about to die, how can I help you?"
"Perhaps, if my soul were to possess you, it would be able to alleviate your injuries."
"real?"
"It's just a guess, but it's better than doing nothing. After all, what else can you do now? Sisters, just trust me!"
"That's right. I'm going to die anyway, so I still owe you one. By the way, be more tolerant of my junior brother. He has a bad temper, but he actually has a kind heart. I'll leave it to you then."
At first, I didn’t understand why Zhang Shan told me this. I was suddenly hit by a dizziness, a feeling of heaviness that I hadn’t felt in a long time.
All the limbs and bones seemed to be injected with plaster, and the light spirit gradually felt the reality of touch, and the uncomfortable pain dominated the mind.
The white light that had been flashing in front of my eyes disappeared. I opened my eyes, looked at my hands dully, and touched my body.
"What's wrong! Zhang Shan!"
Xiao Ruoyin rushed in anxiously, as if sensing something. He anxiously strode to the bed, held my shoulders and asked.
I coughed twice and said with a weak breath, "Get a mirror."
“…”
"go."
Although very surprised, Xiao Ruo endured it and turned around to take a mirror to show me.
My spirit has taken possession of Zhang Shan's body. Her presence is still there, not gone, but very faint. If she were to perish, I might just take over her body like a ghost in a horror movie.
Half surprised and half nervous. Since she could possess someone, the first thing she had to do was to solve the health condition of Zhang Shan's body.
My ultimate goal is to restore Chu Yingyu's freedom. Once everything is settled, I can leave with peace of mind!
I can't be unlucky all the time. I clearly start with a trump card in my hand!
I'm still considering whether I should tell Xiao Ruoyin the truth about the resurrection. If he's deeply in love with Zhang Shan, he'll definitely realize that I'm not her. Then, for the sake of internal stability, I'll have to tell the truth.
As for whether or not to recognize Chu Yingyu, his condition was not very good, so he stayed put for the time being.
His body wasn't in good condition due to the serious injury, but thanks to my arrival, with the support of two souls, he looked better.
"Help me up, let me get out of bed and walk around!"
I want to feel grounded, alive, and breathe some fresh air!
Xiao Ruoyin was stunned by my words. When he saw me struggling to get out of bed, he put down the mirror and hurried over to help me.
He usually seems to be sullen and arrogant, but when it comes to serving Zhang Shan, he is impeccable, just a little bit worse than my widower.
When the old doctor saw that I was able to get out of bed, he almost called me a "last breath of life." I bravely told him, "I will follow the doctor's orders and take my medicine on time."
"Okay, okay, Miss Zhang, this is a blessing from heaven!"
I feel like I can drink three bowls of medicine now and I’m not afraid.
"Zhang Shan, are you really not trying to be brave?"
With a trembling voice, Xiao Ruoyin looked at me with worry, but there was hope in his eyes.
I smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will make you, cough, I will survive."
As soon as I finished speaking, the young man embraced me. He embraced me very gently, afraid that he would crush me with a little force. Since I had borrowed his body, and he had specifically instructed me to treat my junior brother well, I naturally couldn't push him away.
Zhang Shan, do you feel that your junior brother cares about you very much, so you must hold on.
I said I wanted to sit outside for a while to get some fresh air. Although Xiao Ruoyin disagreed, he still helped me sit down in the lobby of the clinic. The old doctor saw my condition and took my pulse, saying that the turbulent qi in my body had stabilized.
The old man stroked his beard and thought, could it be that his medical skills were so superb?
No matter what, my possession did delay Zhang Shan's physical problems.
After taking a sip of cold boiled water to moisten my throat, I saw a figure walking into the clinic.
"puff--"
The water sprayed out like a shower, and the farthest drop splashed onto the boy's shoe.
Chu Yingyu, unconcerned, walked up to the old doctor and tore open the gauze tied around his right palm. This was the wound he had sustained on his way back, punctured by the red tassel spear.
I just bandaged it casually along the way, and even took a shower when I came back and got wet. Now it has become inflamed and infected, so I came here to deal with it.
I have been staring at him since he appeared. I really want to hug him and tell him that I have been resurrected temporarily.
After re-bandaging the wound, the old doctor prescribed some external medicine and a medicine pack. Chu Yingyu paid the bill and was about to leave.
"Chu Yingyu."
Seeing his dejected figure disappearing at the door, I couldn't help but shout. Everyone in the room was stunned, and Xiao Ruoyin was even more amazed.
The author has something to say:
So, whose wife are you? [Shut up and drag her away]
