Chapter 273 Old Wise Woman (1/2)



And there was one detail she was not sure about: did her uncle's body return to normal before or after she got cold?

If he were to recover and then his own body started to feel strange...

Xiaorong simply didn't dare to think about the connection between them.

But Lin Xi spoke again at this time.

"What kind of thing did your grandmother ask you to worship? Please describe it in detail."

Xiaorong came back to her senses and tried hard to recall what her grandmother had asked her to worship.

"It's just an ordinary porcelain figurine, about the size of a palm, and looks like a paper figurine, all green and shiny."

It was obvious at first glance that Qi was related to ghosts and gods, and considering that her grandmother said it was a "god", Xiaorong didn't ask any more questions.

Anyway, she felt that those things must be fake. The porcelain figurine sold to her grandmother might have cost hundreds or thousands of dollars, but in fact the wholesale price in Yiwu market was only a few yuan each.

After hearing this, Lin Xi finally felt certain in his heart.

She said, "That's not a god, it's a ghost."

Who would use a porcelain figurine that looks like a "paper figurine" to replace a deity when inviting gods?

What's more, when you invite a god home, you must worship him properly. From what Xiaorong said, her grandmother just put the porcelain figure on a cabinet without any altar or offerings in front of it.

These are absolutely disrespectful to God.

It’s just that Xiaorong didn’t understand these things, so she was deceived.

"Ghost, that's a ghost? Why would my grandma let me worship a ghost?"

Xiaorong kept shaking her head, apparently unwilling to believe this fact.

Lin Xi had seen many such scenes where people were harmed by their loved ones and were unwilling to accept reality, so she could only continue to expose the truth indifferently.

"She asked you to worship the ghost because she wanted that frozen ghost to follow you. Otherwise, how could you be targeted by the frozen ghost?"

"As for where that frozen ghost came from, you'll have to ask your uncle how he got involved with this thing."

So that frozen ghost was really brought back by my uncle.

Originally, the frozen ghost followed her uncle, but her grandmother tricked her into "worshiping gods", and then it was transferred to her.

Xiao Rong's eyes instantly turned red, and she spoke with tears in her eyes.

"I'm her granddaughter, how could she do this...how could she do this!"

Although her grandmother had never liked her since she was a child, Xiaorong and her parents always felt that they and her grandmother were family after all. Since she didn't do anything particularly excessive, it was fine, after all, she was an elder.

But she never expected that her respect for her grandmother would be rewarded with such a result!

How could grandma do such a thing to her!

At that moment, blood ties seemed like a joke in Xiaorong's eyes.

After the grief, Xiaorong took a deep breath, wiped away her tears, and her eyes suddenly became determined.

Since her grandmother didn't treat her as her own granddaughter, there was no need for her to always remember to be filial to her.

She said to Lin Xi, "Master, is there any way to drive away the frozen ghost that's following me?"

Lin Xi nodded.

Of course there is a way.

The first is to simply destroy it.

This method is simple and convenient.

The second method is to let it go back to where it came from.

In other words, it means sending it back to Xiaorong's uncle.

Lin Xi told Xiaorong about both methods and would take action depending on which one she chose.

After hearing these two options, Xiaorong hesitated for a moment.

She hated her grandmother so much, hated her for being so cruel to her.

But she also thought that her uncle might be innocent and he might not know about this at all.

If the frozen ghost is brought back to him again, won’t my uncle be doomed to die?

Although their contact has not been as close as before since her uncle graduated and started working, Xiaorong still remembers how kind her uncle was to her.

If something really happened to him, she would definitely be sad.

Just when Xiaorong was hesitating, Lin Xi asked her again.

"Do you think your uncle is dumber than you?"

Xiaorong shook her head subconsciously.

Although she didn't like what her grandmother said, she was not wrong in some of the things she said.

For example, my uncle is indeed very smart and capable. He has always been at the top of his class in school since he was a child, and he scored many points above the first-tier score in the college entrance examination.

Although Xiaorong's grades were decent, they were not as good as her uncle's. She even needed him to help her with her homework.

Seeing her shake her head, Lin Xi looked at her calmly.

"So you know when you're in trouble and you seek help from a master. Don't you think your uncle won't?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Xiaorong's already pale face turned even paler.

Yes.

Even she could sense that her body was abnormally cold, so how could her uncle not realize it?

Even she, who never believed that these people would want to seek help from the master, now that her uncle and grandmother were taking care of them and reminding them, how could they not go to the master?

Therefore, in this matter, her uncle might not be as innocent as she thought.

Xiaorong clenched her fists and finally stopped hesitating.

She said to Lin Xi, "Master, let that frozen ghost go back to where he came from!"

Although she is not 100% sure whether her uncle knows that her grandmother has transferred the frozen ghost to her, since her grandmother does not understand these things, after the frozen ghost returns to her uncle, she will definitely continue to find ways to help her uncle solve the problem.

What's more, this frozen ghost was originally brought back by my uncle.

She didn't want to hurt anyone, she just wanted everything to go back to the original situation.

After Xiaorong made her decision, Lin Xi took action as she wished.

Although the frozen ghost is not around now, it is not easy to drive it away from Xiaorong.

Lin Xi first cleared Xiaorong of the connection with the frozen ghost, and then gave her a talisman.

Because the frozen ghost has been haunting her for a while, Xiaorong's yang energy is weak.

Therefore, even if she drove away the frozen ghost, she might still encounter other ghosts and evil creatures.

It will be much safer with an amulet.

As for the frozen ghost, after its connection with Xiaorong was severed, it could only go back to find Xiaorong's uncle.

The conditions for finding a scapegoat are different from those for just finding a random person to possess. Finding a scapegoat requires many conditions, the most important of which is that there is some kind of connection between the person and the ghost.

For example, when a water ghost is looking for a scapegoat, it will try to "seduce" people on the shore in the water, such as confusing them and making them willingly go into the water, thus achieving the scene of "dying in its place" to some extent.

If you don't kill the person who goes into the water casually, even if the water ghost is freed after finding a scapegoat, he will eventually escape the punishment of the underworld.

The frozen ghost died in the snow mountain. If no target was chosen as a scapegoat, it would have to return to the snow mountain and continue to be trapped there.

It wanted to escape so badly that it couldn't go back, so it could only go back to find Xiaorong's uncle who had had a previous connection with it and continue to attack.

Once the connection between Xiaorong and the frozen ghost was severed, she instantly felt a lot more relaxed, and even her depressed mood seemed to lighten up a bit.

The matter was resolved. Xiaorong quickly transferred the money to Lin Xi, then said goodbye to her and returned to school.

She was still a little nervous when she left the Feng Shui shop. Although Lin Xi said that she had broken off the connection with the frozen ghost and she still had the amulet in her hand, she was still worried that she might be scared of the frozen ghost.

Fortunately, from the time she returned to the school dormitory from Funeral Street, she no longer had the symptoms of feeling cold all over.

It seems that the frozen ghost has really left.

Xiaorong finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Thinking of her uncle and grandmother, Xiaorong's face darkened.

Finally she called her mother and told them what had happened to her.

After hearing this, my mother's first reaction was that she didn't quite believe it.

Putting aside their doubts about whether Xiaorong's grandmother and her uncle would do such a thing, the fact that their daughter was haunted by a ghost was enough to surprise them.

In fact, they were just like Xiaorong before, they had never encountered such things before, and it was hard to believe for a while.

Xiaorong also knew that her parents would not believe it at first, so she just said.

"Anyway, I won't be seeing them again. Also, if grandma lets you go over these two days and asks you to worship some gods or immortals, you must not agree!"

"Mom and Dad, just consider it as me begging you, you must not disobey, okay? I don't want to leave you!"

Hearing their daughter crying and begging them on the phone, the mother and daughter felt sad.

On one side is the old mother, and on the other side is the daughter.

If things were really as their daughter said, they would probably be in great pain.

However, at their daughter's pleading, they made her express her stance, saying that they would definitely remember what she said and would not listen to her grandmother and worship anything.

After hanging up the phone, the couple could no longer control their panic.

I remember that my daughter kept saying she was cold at home last weekend and kept wearing two layers of clothes. She looked a little pale when she left the house.

Xiaorong's mother said to her husband while suppressing her fear.

"Dad, I think what Xiaorong said might be true. She wouldn't joke with us about something like this."

Xiaorong's father frowned tightly and didn't say anything immediately.

In fact, he knew very well in his heart that his daughter would never lie to them about such a thing.

But even though he knew it clearly, he still didn't think her grandmother would do such a thing to her.

Xiaorong is her granddaughter after all!

Even though she had never been very kind to Xiaorong, and didn't even care half as much about her uncle, they were still blood relatives. No matter how cruel she was, she couldn't do anything to kill her own granddaughter.

If the son is the biological father, does that mean the granddaughter is not the biological father?

No, my mother wouldn't be so cruel.

Xiaorong's father kept comforting himself, but when he received a call from his mother at around 1:00 a.m., the only hope in his heart finally collapsed.

The couple had actually just fallen asleep when they received the call.

Because their daughter's phone call contained so much information, they were full of doubt and anxiety, their minds constantly torn between belief and doubt, so how could they possibly sleep?

Since they had to go to work tomorrow, they could only force themselves to go to sleep.

Not long after I lay down, I received a call from my mother.

When he got on the phone, the old man sounded more anxious and angry than ever before.

She questioned them.

"Why is Xiaorong's phone turned off? I can't contact her! Call me quickly! I have something to ask her. Hurry!"

Hearing this, the couple's hearts sank.

Xiaorong's father began to tremble unconsciously, but he still tried to calm down and asked.

"Mom, what's the matter with Xiaorong that you're looking for so late at night? She must be asleep already. I won't call her. She has to go to school tomorrow."
