Chapter 304: The Widow of the Ghost Master
"I just want a home that truly belongs to me, why is it so difficult?"
With her hopes dashed, Sang Manxi was devastated and became a little confused.
Shuang Ling couldn't bear it, so she comforted him, "There's nothing you can do about this kind of thing. You can't ask someone to love you, even if they are your parents, your blood relatives who gave birth to you. It's most important for you to love yourself and have your own family, and to break away from them, but you don't have to give up your body."
"You said they took your house, but as long as it's in your name, you can get it back. At least it's better than my parents. They wanted my life. They bled me since I was a child. The most dangerous time I almost became a corpse."
Shuang Ling's parents were both well-hidden cultists. Later on, they developed to the point of fanaticism and perversion, trying to gain the qualification to enter Xiao Xitian by sacrificing the lives of their loved ones.
Although he grew up in such a depressing and perverted atmosphere, Shuang Ling is still cheerful and optimistic because of the company of cats.
She didn't care much about these past events. In the three years in the Special Department, she had seen too many unfortunate things. She wanted to use her own experience to tell Sang Manxi that no one was worth giving up her body and life.
Lin Zhi glanced around the room. He didn't understand Gu Xing, but he and his lover didn't really have a happy family.
Not to mention the identity of his lover, Lian Qing's family was tragically dead, with both parents dead, and his family relationships were not healthy.
Even the original owner was raised by an old Taoist priest in a dilapidated temple.
Gu Xing's idea was similar to Lin Zhi's. He didn't understand Lin Zhi, but he knew his senior brother's situation. His own family was not that good. His parents were from a remote mountain village. They had too many children but couldn't afford to raise them, so they took the initiative to sell him to human traffickers. His master took pity on him and saw that he had good physique, so he saved him and brought him to a Taoist temple to practice.
It’s just that they are not twin spirits, and are not used to exposing their sufferings to others in order to comfort them.
Sang Manxi was a little surprised after hearing Shuang Ling's words.
She didn't expect that there were such parents in the world. To call them parents was an exaggeration for them. They were simply beasts.
In comparison, it seemed that her parents were not so inhumane, they just didn't love her enough.
In the first half of her life, she actually didn't feel that she was living in a world that favored boys over girls.
Her parents would not belittle her just because they valued her younger brother. They would give her double the food and toys. She would scold her younger brother if he made mistakes. They would even treat her better with small favors.
But it was not until her interests were involved that she realized what it meant to reveal the real purpose.
In order to buy a house in a good location for her younger brother, her parents used up all their savings and took out a loan and asked her to help support them. At that time, she had just started working and was still brainwashed by the idea of paying for her parents.
Later, when she felt tired and didn't want to contribute to the family anymore, she was accused of being unfilial, cold-blooded and selfish, and of how good they were to her.
It's really strange. She doesn't want to subsidize her younger brother, and her younger brother is not her responsibility. Why is she the unfilial one?
And the younger brother who had followed her since childhood, also looked at her with guilt yet peace of mind due to this huge conflict of interest.
She seemed to have no place to stay. There was no place for her in that exquisite bridal chamber. The room where she had lived since she was a child was also converted into her brother's study because she had been away from home for so long.
She began to desperately want to have a home, a home that truly belonged to her, a home where she could have the final say and which would not be changed by anyone.
She took out all her savings and even took out a loan to buy the second-hand house she lived in. This matter was not kept secret for long, as a fierce quarrel broke out between her and her family.
One day three years ago, her parents found her and announced that they had sold their house to pay off the loan and now had nowhere to live, so they wanted to move into her house.
This was simply suffocating, and she didn't want her parents to bring out the same old excuses again, saying it was cold-blooded and unfilial to watch her parents live on the streets.
When her parents first said they were going to move the luggage, she felt a great sense of powerlessness.
She accidentally fell down while she was distracted. During her blurred consciousness, she saw her first doll. If only she could be a doll, maybe she wouldn't have so many worries.
But she didn't expect that when she opened her eyes again, she actually appeared in the doll's body, unable to move, and could only look at her body lying there.
She watched the police break in the door, watched her parents move into the house, and listened to them mumbling as they packed her things.
——We said we wanted to move in and take care of her, but she refused. She’s such a grown-up, but she can’t even take care of herself, and she makes us worry so much. If something really happens to her, what will we do?
The neighbors hurried to comfort her, saying that it was pitiful to see the love of parents in the world.
——What a weird thing, it’s been staring at us. How old are you, but still playing with this broken doll? I have so much money to burn, so I’ll throw it away quickly.
Lying on top of the trash can and looking at the sky, Sang Manxi thought she would meet her final death and be burned to ashes, but a hand took her out and brushed the dust off her body.
——Mom, she is so beautiful, can we take her home?
——Mom, I want her to be my sister, let’s give her a name!
——I am Da Yu, she is Xiao Yu, and I also have a younger sister! My sister is prettier than all of them!
She was taken back to their home and stayed there for a while. Sang Manxi heard the couple talking about having a second child. She was a little worried at first, but then she heard them say that if they didn't have enough savings, they could pay a down payment for each child and leave the rest to the children themselves.
Why couldn't her parents be like this?
She doesn't need to be partial, she just needs to be fair.
Gu Xing looked at Sang Manxi, who seemed lost in her memories, and chanted a soul-calling spell.
This time Sang Manxi did not resist and returned to her body.
She moved her fingers and opened her eyes weakly.
Shuang Ling said at her bedside: "You have to do your rehabilitation training well, so that you can return to your previous state."
Sang Manxi blinked to indicate that she understood.
Shuang Ling whispered in her ear: "There will be an agreement in a while. If you don't join us, you will have an organization to back you up, and no one will bully you."
Gu Xing tapped her on the head and began the routine, asking Sang Manxi to choose to become an employee of the Special Department or forget the memory.
Even without the reminder from the two spirits, Sang Manxi would have chosen one, not because she had an organization to back her up, but because she had people and things she didn't want to forget.
Sang Manxi is an adult. After the initial blow, she quickly accepted the current situation and made up her mind.
Gu Xing: "How did you get your soul into the doll?"
Sang Manxi shook her head. She hadn't spoken for three years and was unable to make any sound. She could only use her mouth shapes to indicate that she didn't know either.
"That's very strange. Your horoscope isn't so weak that your soul can leave your body at will."
Gu Xing was puzzled and couldn't figure out the cause.
Everyone's eyes fell on Lian Qing. A certain mysterious master who had transformed into a ghost was playing with his lover's fingers. He looked up only after Lin Zhi gently pinched his hand.
"What you said before is also true. This doll has indeed given birth to a spirit."
Lian Qing looked at Gu Xing, confirming his first inference when he saw the doll.
Humans are the most intelligent creatures on earth. Their language and words contain power. In addition, their thoughts have the same effect.
Objects that are charged with emotions are more likely to give birth to spirits.
Lian Qing's eyes fell on Sang Manxi and asked, "When you were dying, did you have any very strong thoughts?"
Sang Manxi was stunned and nodded.
The answer came to light. The doll's faint inspiration was inspired by its owner's wish and disappeared silently after fulfilling her wish.
Sang Manxi became a new spirit and guarded Wu Yutong.
Today, dolls are just dolls.
Sang Manxi felt a sore nose, but suddenly she felt relieved.
In the silent atmosphere of the room, Lin Zhi picked up the dirty doll from the box and thought about what to use to clean it.
It has become an ordinary doll, and items such as alcohol will cause damage to it.
The black cat walked over gracefully, motioned Lin Zhi to lower his head, swept its tail across Lin Zhi's palm, and used its magical power to restore the doll to its original state.
"Thanks."
Lin Zhi touched its head, and his hand was grabbed by a jealous ghost.
"Uncle San, you are awesome!"
Shuangling suddenly picked up the cat and kissed it on the cheek several times.
“Meow meow!”
The black cat dodged left and right, pressed its claws against Shuangling's face, and jumped away proudly.
"I have also contributed."
Lian Qing rested his head on Lin Zhi's shoulder and rubbed his cheek.
Lin Zhi chuckled: "I'll light an extra stick of incense for you when I get home?"
Lian Qing responded softly, saying that he would deal with the issue of going home when he got home, and by then it would take more than just one stick of incense.
His body was finally going to be complete.
The matter was resolved perfectly. Gu Xing stayed to explain Sang Manxi's situation and some follow-up matters to the division. The division was a little short of staff, so Shuang Ling and Third Uncle were seconded to temporarily handle a more difficult case. The task of returning the doll fell into Lin Zhi's hands.
Lin Zhi changed the box to put the doll in. It was Wu Yutong he had promised before, so naturally he had to return it now.
When he arrived, Qian Mengyuan and the others were still awake.
Qian Mengyuan and the others breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the brand new doll.
Although what they looked up didn't seem to be helpful, they didn't feel like they were wasting their time because at least they had done a little more homework.
Qian Mengyuan asked worriedly, "Is there really no chemical residue left?"
"Absolutely not. I'm sorry to scare you."
Qian Mengyuan waved his hands: "It's nothing, it's nothing. Those scumbags just don't do good things. You have worked hard to protect our lives and safety."
Wu Yutong held the doll that she had found again, but she felt a little absent-minded.
She asked in a low voice: "Brother, where is Xiaoyu?"
Wu Zhengrong was puzzled: "Isn't she in your hands?"
Lin Zhi smiled at her, squatted in front of her, and whispered in her ear: "Xiaoyu has returned to where she should be. One day you will meet again."
Wu Yutong nodded and smiled.
She said, "It's good if Xiaoyu stops crying."
Lin Zhi touched her hair and stood up to say goodbye.
Knowing that everything was fine and the antisocial person had been arrested, Qian Mengyuan's family relaxed.
She laughed and said, "Don't tell me, are the police so good-looking nowadays?"
"Mom, the brother next to the policeman is also very handsome."
Qian Mengyuan: "Ah? Didn't he come alone?"
Wu Zhengrong echoed his wife's words and said, "He came alone."
"Oh no, could it be that some chemical has affected the child and caused her to have hallucinations? Haven't I been hearing voices all the time these past two days?"
Wu Zhengrong said seriously: "Let's go to the hospital for a check-up tomorrow."
"Then you can do one too. I'll book one for all three of us online. Health is the most important thing."
Wu Yutong held the baby and listened to her parents mumbling, shaking her head in her heart. There was indeed another brother next to her brother just now.
The next day, the whole family took a day off and were busy at the hospital.
Wu Yutong followed her parents up and down, biting a lollipop. Her father went to buy some water, and she sat on a bench in the garden with her mother.
Qian Mengyuan was wiping the sweat off the child and fanning him when she saw from afar a girl in a wheelchair being pushed over by a nurse.
"Miss Sang, after basking in the sun for a while today, do you feel better?"
"Um."
Wu Yutong looked at her as she went over, and the moment they looked at each other, the elder sister smiled at her, and Wu Yutong also smiled.
It seemed familiar, but she didn't know where the feeling came from.
Qian Mengyuan sighed: "It's so pitiful. He is so sick at such a young age. Although I don't know what the condition is, I hope he can recover."
Wu Yutong ate the candy and nodded in agreement with her mother.
The summer sun is so bright that it illuminates the roads on both sides.
When the destined reunion occurs, the past that needs no words will melt away in the same smile.
