Xia Xin often posts interesting stories about her time at the hospital online, and she has a considerable following.
Her words attracted a lot of attention.
Of course, the most vocal critics are Jiang Si's haters. Although she hasn't been in the entertainment industry for a long time, she may still pose a threat to their sister, and they occasionally have to drag her out for a fight.
[My God, how much money did Jiang Si give you? We can crowdfund it for you, okay? Can you please say something on her behalf?]
[Jiang Si always boasts about being helpful and having boundless magical powers, yet she remains silent when she sees poor people. Isn't it all because of the money?]
[Haha, didn't Jiang Si already hook up with that CEO Li? Someone even photographed them going out together. Tsk tsk, you guys don't understand the ways of the wealthy.]
Some people refuted these people's claims.
[If you don't know, please don't spout nonsense. Does Jiang Si need this? Where did these trolls even come from?]
[Jiang Si helped so much, so in your eyes she was completely useless?]
What, helping someone once or twice is a get-out-of-jail-free card? Who knows if it was just a show?
Hey, enjoy this while you can, or your account might get lost!
Guan Qingchen saw these comments online and spoke out directly.
Who exactly hired an online troll team to smear my master?
Guan Qingchen didn't say who it was, but only gave a vague answer.
But with just this one sentence, a large portion of the critics' comments disappeared.
There's no other reason than that Guan Qingchen's status in the industry is practically unparalleled; if you really offend him, you're practically done for.
The very next day, news broke that a certain actress had been rejected by a director.
Now, most of the haters have disappeared.
“If she dares to come again, I’m afraid she’ll find out why the flowers are so red,” Guan Qingchen said.
His agent said, "Chen Qisi is still crying outside."
Why didn't she cry when she did it?
He didn't care about professional competition, but he couldn't stand that Jiang Si hadn't done anything wrong and was being unfairly accused.
It's just a return, right?
Being rejected because one's virtue does not match one's position is a responsible act towards the audience.
The agent said nothing more.
He realized that whoever dared to offend Guan Qingchen's master was doomed.
If this guy doesn't step in, there's still Young Master Li, isn't there?
The news made the story, and then it disappeared very quickly.
Even ordinary people could sense that something unusual was going on.
Jiang Si, however, was still in the Special Affairs Department; she had come to collect her reward.
Although the course of events was somewhat convoluted, if someone commits a crime, even if the law no longer pursues it decades later, they still have to suffer the consequences they deserve.
The higher-ups were actually slightly dissatisfied, believing that it had caused some social unrest.
Guan Qian asked, "What's bothering you?"
"Isn't this exactly what has the deterrent effect? It lets them know that no matter how much time passes, they will pay the price for their crimes."
He casually browsed his phone, then handed it to the screen, saying, "A lot of people are saying that karma is a cycle."
"Fine, this won't happen again."
Guan Qian gave the reward to Jiang Si.
Three thousand coins and a pill made by the Spirit Medicine Sect, which can quickly restore a person's energy and is a good medicine for traveling the martial arts world.
Jiang Si: "..."
She accepted the three thousand yuan, but as for the pills, she said, "Why don't you keep them, or give them to someone else?"
Guan Qian sensed a faint hint of disdain from it.
Jiang Si was genuinely disgusted; the effects of this medicine weren't even as good as any random pill she took.
As for the three thousand yuan, consider it as a memorial service for those dozen or so poor people.
The entire Jiling Village is almost deserted.
The injured are lying in the hospital, while the uninjured have either fled or rushed to take care of others.
This time, Guan Qingchen drove his big SUV, carrying some items, and arrived at Jiling Village with Jiang Si.
They came to the locust tree.
This time, the yin energy is quite strong.
Jiang Si poured some wine under the locust tree, saying, "I've come to pay my respects to you, sir."
The locust tree swayed without wind, as if thanking Jiang Si.
Jiang Si smiled. "Aren't you going to show yourselves?"
The locust tree stopped moving.
After a while, a pair of wise eyes, as if they could see through everything, opened on the tree trunk.
"You can hide anything from me."
Guan Qingchen had a premonition when Jiang Si toasted a tree, and sure enough, it turned out to be a tree that had become sentient and had eyes.
There's nothing strange about it.
"Thank you for protecting them for so long."
The locust tree spirit sighed, "But I am powerless to help them, all I can do is give them a place of refuge."
I don't know if the people in this village are really disrespectful to gods and Buddhas, that they would actually throw a trafficked woman who died unjustly here and bury her.
The locust tree is a ghost tree, which loves yin energy the most. This locust tree is the kind that has become a spirit by its old age. When it encounters this kind of thing, it is like encountering a perfect tonic. It directly absorbs all the resentment of these poor women and becomes a monster.
However, it is not easy for plants to cultivate into spirits. The locust tree just happened to receive the resentment of these people and gained consciousness. It is still far from being able to cause earth-shattering changes. At most, it can be whipped by a nearby person with a branch, which will not cause much damage.
The demonic aura was so faint that even the people from the Special Affairs Department couldn't sense it when they arrived.
After all, Jiang Si wouldn't be surprised if an ant walked by her.
The locust tree spirit couldn't help these people, but they were all trafficked and their relatives were nowhere to be found. Their grievances were too deep, and they lingered in the human world as ownerless wandering souls.
Perhaps after many years, it will all disappear, but the locust tree spirit, grateful that these poor women helped him gain consciousness, gave them his willow trunk as a place to live, so that they would not be homeless.
