Lin Xiang immediately suppressed the yawn she had just let out, clutching her stomach and letting out a cry of pain as cold sweat beaded on her forehead.
The baby inside seemed to sense some unease. This small black handprint was just the beginning; it was eager and impatient to break free.
It was as if being even a second slower would mean losing the chance to be born.
Lin Xiang cried out in pain from the commotion, placing her hand on her belly and gently coaxing, "Good baby, good baby, be good, don't make Mommy suffer..."
Before she could finish speaking, she felt a wetness in her lower body, and her stomach pain intensified.
Lin Xiang's face turned pale, and she screamed in panic, "Mom—! Mom!! My water broke!"
Hearing Lin Xiang's voice, Aunt Zhang, who was cooking, rushed out and was shocked to see cloudy liquid seeping from the chair Lin Xiang was sitting on: "Isn't the due date next month?! How come her water broke now?!"
"Oh my God!" Aunt Zhang frantically pulled out her phone to dial 120, and then called her son, telling him to take leave and come home immediately, because his wife was about to give birth!
After making arrangements, she helped Lin Xiang sit on the sofa to prevent her from falling off the chair due to the pain. She was flustered, but she did not forget to comfort Lin Xiang: "It's okay, it's okay. It will take some time after the baby is born. We still have time to go to the hospital."
"You sit here and wait for me, I'll go pack your maternity bag!"
As Aunt Zhang was speaking, she got up to go to the bedroom to pack the maternity bag her son had bought earlier, which she would take to the hospital later. Just as she stood up, Lin Xiang grabbed her hand and said intermittently, "No, I can't, Mom."
"The baby, the baby is coming out..."
Aunt Zhang exclaimed in shock: "What?!"
How long has it been? How come the baby is about to be born?!
"Ah! It hurts! It hurts so much! Mom, save me! I'm not having any more babies, I never want to have any more babies!"
Lin Xiang collapsed onto the sofa, clutching her stomach and screaming in pain. Underneath her clothes, black threads gradually emerged from her belly.
Tiny black claws clung to the black silk threads, as if trying to tear open the belly and crawl out.
Aunt Zhang broke out in a cold sweat, knowing she couldn't carry Lin Xiang downstairs by herself and couldn't wait for the ambulance to arrive. She got up and rushed to the door, intending to ask her neighbors for help.
Suddenly the door was opened from the outside. Aunt Zhang was startled. Before she could speak, a yellow talisman was slapped onto her forehead.
"You..." Aunt Zhang's eyes rolled back and she fainted.
Zhong Xueliu caught Zhang Da Niang and exclaimed urgently, "Yuan Yuan! Quick! She's about to give birth!"
Nan Yuanman darted through the crack in the open door and immediately saw a woman lying on the sofa with a large, dark belly.
The woman was very thin, with sunken cheeks, yellow hair, and so thin that you could almost see her bones. She looked like a tiny blob, but her belly was ridiculously large, which looked extremely strange.
At that time, her stomach, which was covered by her clothes, had been torn open.
If Nan Yuanman and the others had arrived any later, the evil spirit, no, the evil infant, inside her would have burst out of her womb!
Lin Xiang was in so much pain that she was delirious. In her dazed state, she seemed to see a small figure radiating golden light, and instinctively reached out her hand to her: "Save me...save me..."
The baby in her womb seemed to sense the danger and began to thrash even more violently.
Countless handprints and footprints appeared on Lin Xiang's high, protruding belly, as if they would burst out of her belly at any moment.
Without hesitation, Nan Yuanman decisively took out a talisman from his small handbag, lifted her clothes, and stuck it on her stomach.
The vicious baby, which had been struggling violently and trying to get out of Lin Xiang's belly, was instantly brought under control.
Bai Yi took a medicinal talisman and put it into Lin Xiang's mouth to protect and repair her essence.
After taking a picture of a talisman, Nan Yuanman didn't stop. She grabbed a stack of talismans and pasted them in the four directions of the room: east, south, west, and north. Finally, she pasted a soul-stabilizing talisman on Lin Xiang's forehead to protect her soul.
Then the little figure rapidly formed hand seals while chanting: "Supreme Lord Laozi, your decree is as firm as a mountain; Heavenly soldiers and generals, slay countless ghosts; I obey the Dao's decree, my sword points to the Ghost Abyss; if the ghosts do not disperse, I will behead them on the spot; so be it!"
As soon as the Demon-Slaying Incantation was cast, Nan Yuanman bit his fingertip and smeared the blood on Lin Xiang's belly.
The talisman stuck to Lin Xiang's belly flashed with golden light, and a shrill, mournful wail instantly echoed throughout the room.
The unconscious Lin Xiang was in so much pain that her limbs spasmed and twitched. Her soul, which was about to leave her body, was pressed back in by the soul-fixing talisman that Nan Yuanman had placed on her beforehand.
The evil infant was unwilling to let all its efforts and long-term hard work go to waste. Enduring the pain of its soul being torn apart, it used its last strength to control Lin Xiang.
Lin Xiang suddenly opened her tightly closed eyes, and her withered, claw-like hand lashed out at the talisman stuck to her stomach.
"Sister Baiyi! Stop her!" Nan Yuanman shouted urgently.
Bai Yipiao stepped forward and restrained Lin Xiang's hands, while Zhong Xueliu, who arrived just in time, also hugged Lin Xiang's legs.
"Damn it! Damn it!" The evil spirit, whose power had been greatly weakened, was furious. Seeing that he could not control Lin Xiang's body, he gave up and tried to break away from the body he had finally obtained. His soul escaped again.
Nan Yuanman was prepared. The moment the hideous ghost head emerged from Lin Xiang's belly, she gripped the copper coin sword and stabbed fiercely.
The evil spirit let out a miserable scream, and its weakened soul was instantly annihilated by Nan Yuanman's attack.
Lin Xiang's body convulsed violently a few times before collapsing limply. Her abnormally large belly shrank slightly, and the dense black lines on her skin gradually faded away due to the power of the talisman.
Nan Yuanman wiped her forehead, let out a soft breath, and said to Zhong Xueliu, "Sister Xueliu, the evil spirit has been exorcised, but there is still a dead baby in her belly. That baby needs to be taken care of, and this aunt still needs to go to the hospital."
Zhong Xueliu looked at Lin Xiang, who was so thin she was just skin and bones in her arms, and sighed softly: "Alright, go to the next place. Leave the rest to me."
Nan Yuanman nodded emphatically, put away the copper coin sword, and continued on to the next house with Bai Yi.
Perhaps because they arrested Gao Jingjing, the women who were not due to give birth suddenly went into labor and miscarried.
Despite their best efforts, Nan Yuanman and Miao Shaohua could only kill twenty-eight evil spirits. The remaining twenty-two evil spirits abandoned the hard-won physical body and escaped after the woman miscarried.
Nanmanyuan tried to subdue them, but these evil spirits were extremely fierce. Seeing that there was no chance of escape, they tore their souls apart and exploded.
They gave her absolutely no chance to capture him alive.
This made Miao Shaohua, who originally wanted to capture the evil spirit alive for interrogation, extremely sullen. He said with a nasty tongue, "A genius of the Xuanmen sect? He can't even catch a single evil spirit."
Nan Yuanman didn't give him any face and retorted directly: "What kind of captain are you? You can't even catch a single evil spirit. What a disgrace."
Miao Shaohua was furious: "You, you! You little brat, you have no respect for your elders at all!"
Nanman slammed his fist on the table: "You're the one who doesn't love the young ones!"
The two, one big and one small, glared at each other, then simultaneously turned their faces away and snorted coldly.
The rest of the 908 team members: "..."
I dare not speak, I dare not speak at all.
Despite their bickering, the two were surprisingly quick at dealing with the evil spirits.
Miao Shaohua initially thought that the foreign ghost Nan Yuanman was talking about would be an old ghost with blond hair and blue eyes. He never expected that the twenty-eight evil ghosts he killed were all from an old rival.
This made him very angry, and he stopped arguing with Nan Yuanman. After realizing that he couldn't capture him alive, he led his team back to report immediately.
After a busy day, the little dumpling was finally able to rest. Instead of going home, she went to Gao Jingjing's house.
Aunt Qingwan is still waiting for her there!
When Nan Yuanman returned, Dong Yuanxiang had already woken up. She learned about Gao Jingjing's actions from Meng Qingwan, and her mind went blank. Almost instinctively, she grabbed Meng Qingwan's hand to ask for confirmation: "This...this can't be true, right?"
Lou Haoyu, her husband who loved her so much, how could he have cheated on her?
