Chapter 154 I am dead, not me
Qin Qinsen moved quickly. As the golden light fell on the tip of the sword, he pulled the sword out.
A large hole suddenly appeared where the long sword had been inserted. For a moment, the ward was filled with gasps. Bai's mother clutched her chest and closed her eyes, leaning on Bai Muqing's shoulder as if nothing existed unless she looked.
Bai Muqing supported her mother and asked in a trembling voice, "Are you really okay?"
It’s not quite accurate to call it a hole. To be honest, it should be a light source.
Tao Huali was very curious about the hole that appeared on his body, and even tried to reach his hand in, but was slapped away by Qin Qinsen.
"Naughty boy, can you touch this casually?"
As he spoke, he brought a basin of water and threw the talisman paper he had prepared into the basin. Unlike the previous action of lighting the talisman and placing it into the cup of water, this time the talisman paper was not lit. Instead, he let go of his hand and let it fall slowly and evenly.
When it touched the water surface, the entire talisman paper instantly turned into water waves and merged with the clear water.
Qin Qinsen gathered his hands together, scooped up some water, and poured it into the hollow space in Tao Huali's chest. At the same time, Qingzhu came to her side and leaned forward with her.
As Tao Huali moved, water flowed down from the cave, and it was as black as ink.
Bai's mother, who had just adjusted her mood, saw this scene as soon as she opened her eyes. Her heartbeat began to become irregular again. She held Bai Muqing's hand tightly, but was no longer impulsive. She just let Bai Muqing take her back and not disturb Qin Qinsen.
"... Comfort the body. The disciple's soul, the five internal organs..." Qin Qinsen's movements were smooth, and his voice was steady and calm, giving people a sense of solemnity for no reason.
With the purification mantra and the cleansing of clear water, the water flowing out of the cave was finally no longer pitch black, but gradually became lighter. Qin Qinsen only stopped when clear water flowed out of the cave.
Using yellow talismans as hand towels, Qin Qinsen threw a few to Tao Huali, indicating that she should wipe her hands dry.
When the two of them finished cleaning, the hole on Tao Huali's chest had been closed, and even the fabric of his clothes was not damaged. He was as neat and clean as if he had just taken it back from the dry cleaners.
"How does it feel?"
Tao Huali touched and pinched himself here and there, and finally sighed, "I didn't think it was strange at first, but after removing the death-substitution technique, I really feel refreshed."
It's like the sudden relief of rhinitis for patients with years of rhinitis, which is what Tao Huali felt.
Several people looked down at the black water that had formed a pool of mud, and they all sighed in unison - the human body is so great that it can actually hide such a large mass.
"The result of the spell being materialized doesn't mean that this thing can actually be put into the body."
The longsword completed its final mission, burning along with the black dirt. The moment the ward door was pushed open, it completely disappeared.
"There was no response from my knocks, so I asked Lu Zhi to knock it open. Are you all right?"
Anxi spoke in a hurried tone, obviously really anxious.
"It's okay. It's just over. Come in." Qin Qinsen picked up the basin and walked towards the bathroom. When he passed Lu Zhi, he met Bai's father's eyes behind him. "Really."
The battle-damaged Father Bai was a little confused. He didn't know what the handsome young man meant and could only stand there at a loss.
"Come and sit down quickly. Have you seen a doctor? Why is it so serious?"
Seeing her husband's pitiful appearance, Bai's mother quickly helped him to the hospital bed - he obviously needed rest more than her.
"It's okay. Xiao Lu has already asked someone to bandage me. It just looks a bit exaggerated."
"Yes, if the island had been five minutes later, you would have been able to collect his body." Lu Zhi smiled with a fake smile, looking quite villainous. "The news came from Luofeng Island that someone was intercepted and killed on the way. The original plan was to fake a car accident, but the taxi driver was very skilled and managed to avoid it, but was forced to stop."
So a group of ferocious-looking young men took machetes and steel bars and started smashing the car without saying a word.
When the people Anxi sent arrived, the taxi driver had already knocked down three thugs and was covered in wounds.
"What about your injury..." After listening for a long time, Bai's mother only heard the taxi driver's bravery and fearlessness, but how to explain Bai's father's bandages all over his head and face?
"He got scratched on the head by a steel pipe smashing through the car window, and on the face by someone stabbing the glass because he was too close."
Lu Zhi's explanation was simple, but it also made Bai's mother feel relieved. It was good that she was not hit on the head with a stick.
"I think the driver is good, so I might as well bring him back with me. Now Fang Qing is taking him to the emergency room." After Lu Zhi finished speaking, Qin Qinsen had just finished dealing with the final details and returned to the ward. For a moment, everyone's eyes were focused on him.
"Why are you looking at me? It's a great day for your family to get together, why don't you hurry up and chat more."
Father Bai then realized that the voice of the handsome boy in front of him was the same as the guy who was suspected to be the kidnapper on the phone.
"Oh, yes, you found it? It's..." His eyes swept over the unfamiliar faces in the room, and everyone looked like it. Finally, he stopped at Qingzhu's face and hesitated, "This one...?"
"I am dead, not me." Qingzhu said casually, floating up and landing on Tao Huali's shoulder, and actually merged into Tao Huali's body in front of everyone.
"T-This—you—!"
The hand pointing at Qingzhu kept shaking. Father Bai was obviously frightened by Qingzhu. His eyes rolled back and he fainted.
"dad!"
"Zhiyuan!"
Bai Muqing hurried out to find a doctor, while Bai's mother struggled to get the patient to lie down on the bed.
After giving Tao Huali a look, Qin Qinsen and Lu Zhi worked together to straighten Mr. Bai's limp body on the bed and waited for the doctor to come and check.
Tao Huali stuck out her tongue, a little embarrassed, but she refused to admit it, "I'm a ghost master. There are ghosts and monsters coming and going around me. If... then I still have to get used to it sooner."
"Mom knows you are capable, don't worry, it's your father who has been timid since he was a child. He is afraid of the dark and ghosts. He will be fine after fainting a few more times." Mother Bai patted Tao Huali's baby face lovingly, and it was obvious that she was very accepting.
"I didn't even have time to ask, which of you two is the older sister?"
Tao Huali and Shangguan Yue looked at each other in confusion. This was the second day since they met, so who knew who was who?
"Tao Huali was born ten minutes earlier."
Hearing Qin Qinsen's answer, Bai's mother smiled and said, "Then Yueyue is still Yueyue. Both are the names given by your father. The younger one is Yueyue, and the older one is Xingxing."
Tao Huali was somewhat unaccustomed to such intimacy with her elders, her neck stiff and nodding silently. Shangguan Yue, who was standing beside her, was not much better, smiling awkwardly, clearly not used to it.
Seeing this, Qin Qinsen was at a loss for words. The two had different upbringings, yet both had faced many hardships. Tao Huali was fine, with Qingzhu by her side, and at best, a bit of a personality quirk. But Shangguan Yue was different. Living in the countryside, she hadn't been treated well.
Qin Qinsen can catch ghosts and exorcise evil spirits, but he can't help them resolve their emotional knots.
