In Nan Yuanman's eyes, the room she was referring to was already submerged by a strange, malevolent aura that was black with wisps of pink.
The room temperature is low, which is also due to a problem with the room itself.
Qiao Jin followed Nan Yuanman's chubby little hand and looked over. When she realized which room Nan Yuanman was referring to, she was completely stunned.
The master bedroom is where she usually lives.
Qiao Jin swallowed hard and moved closer to Nan Yuanman: "Is there a problem with that master bedroom?"
“There should be a medium in that room where the spell that drained my sister’s luck was cast,” Nan Yuanman said, toddling over with her short legs, placing her hand on the door, and politely asking, “Sister, may I come in?”
Qiao Jin nodded quickly and stepped forward to open the door for Nan Yuanman: "Of course! I'll open it for you."
Feng Langqing hesitated for a moment, then mustered his courage and silently followed behind Nan Yuanman.
Nan Yuanman seemed to sense Feng Langqing's nervousness, turned her head and patted his leg to comfort him: "Third brother, don't be afraid, Yuanman will protect you, no ghost or monster can hurt you!"
Feng Langqing felt a warmth in his heart, but also a bit amused and exasperated. He hummed in agreement and clung to Nan Yuanman with a tense expression.
As soon as the door opened, a cozy and girly room appeared before Nan Yuanman's eyes. She glanced at the decorations in the room and her gaze fell on a string of beads casually placed on the dressing table.
The bracelet is made of pink beads, with a white fox carved from jade hanging in the middle. It looks pink and tender, fresh and beautiful.
The white jade fox, meant only as an embellishment, was continuously releasing malevolent energy. The moment Qiao Jin appeared, the malevolent energy rushed towards her, attempting to penetrate her seven orifices and cut off her luck.
A faint golden light emanated from Qiao Jin's body, keeping the malevolent energy at bay.
Unable to see any malevolent aura, she only felt a chill on her face, causing her to shiver involuntarily. She looked around in fear and confusion, completely too afraid to enter the room.
Nan Yuanman's face turned serious, and she quickly walked to the dressing table and picked up the bracelet.
Qiao Jin stared nervously at Nan Yuanman's movements. When she saw the bracelet Nan Yuanman picked up, she froze, her eyes filled with disbelief: "This bracelet... is the medium through which the magic was cast?"
Nan Yuanman nodded: "Yes, that's it."
Nan Yuanman took out a talisman from her small handbag and wrapped the bracelet inside. Qiao Jin couldn't help but ask, "Could there be a mistake? This bracelet wasn't given to me by that medium; it was a birthday gift from my friend."
Her best friend is someone she's known since they debuted together; they've been friends for almost eight years.
She bought the materials and made the bracelet herself for her.
“I’m not mistaken, there are traces of magic on this bracelet.” Nan Yuanman brought the bracelet, which was wrapped in talismans, to her nose and smelled it. A faint scent of incense mixed with the smell of foxes appeared at the tip of her nose.
"She must have had it used for a ritual before giving it to you; the scent of incense still lingers on it!"
As Nan Yuanman spoke, he handed the bracelet in his hand to Qiao Jinwen.
Qiao Jin couldn't wait to take a sniff, and sure enough, she could smell a faint scent of incense. This discovery stunned her: "How could... how could it be her..."
When Qiao Jin first told Nan Yuanman that her friend had found a medium for her, she was able to comfort herself. Her friend didn't know that the medium was a bad person; she was just trying to help because she saw that Qiao Jin was too anxious.
But now... this bracelet has completely shattered her hopes.
Feng Langqing glanced at Qiao Jin with sympathy. Qiao Jin's hands were trembling as she held the bracelet. She felt angry, but also wronged and saddened by the betrayal.
Nan Yuanman took the bracelet wrapped with talismans from Qiao Jin's hand and skillfully took out an incense burner, a bowl of rice, and a red incense stick.
She placed the incense burner and the bowl of rice directly on the dressing table, lit the incense, and handed it to Qiao Jin: "Come and offer your prayers."
Qiao Jin took the incense in a daze and mechanically bowed three times as Nan Yuanman requested.
The moment she bowed down, red threads gradually appeared in Nan Yuanman's eyes. One end of the red thread disappeared into the void, and the other end was connected to Qiao Jin's back, greedily devouring the luck and vitality in her body.
Nan Yuanman's face turned serious. She took out a pair of red scissors, came behind Qiao Jin, and snip-snip-cut the red thread.
In Feng Langqing's eyes, it was as if his younger sister had suddenly pulled out a pair of red scissors and was randomly cutting behind Qiao Jin's back.
The scene was both magical and eerie.
As soon as the red thread broke, Qiao Jin felt her body, which had been feeling very heavy for the past few days, become lighter, and her muddled mind gradually cleared up.
Nan Yuanman huffed and puffed as he cut all the red threads, then smeared the ash from the incense that Qiao Jin had just inserted onto the bracelet.
The pink bracelet turned black instantly before the three people's eyes, and the cute white jade fox became ferocious and terrifying.
Qiao Jin: "!!!"
She felt a chill run down her spine. Was this the thing she had been wearing on her hand?!
The white jade fox, oblivious to Nan Yuanman's attempt to break the spell, roared angrily at her, trying to break free of the rope and pounce on her, but its body was gradually engulfed by incense ash and eventually dissipated.
Meanwhile, Meng Xi, who had finished filming early and returned to her room to rest, was about to take a bath to relax when she tripped over a table leg and fell forward uncontrollably.
"Hiss—!" Meng Xi hurriedly braced herself with her hands, but a sharp pain shot through her ankle, causing her to gasp involuntarily.
Meng Xi sat on the ground and quickly checked the injury on her ankle. She had twisted her foot, and a large lump had swelled up.
Meng Xi looked at the large bag with alarm and asked anxiously, "What happened? Why did I fall?"
Since she worshipped the Fox Spirit and invited it into her home, she hasn't had any mishaps for a very long time.
Even if she accidentally bumps into something or someone, something or someone will catch her and she will never get hurt.
Now, however, she is injured.
A phantom white figure gradually appeared before Meng Xi, its aura extremely cold and imposing: "Someone stole my tribute!"
Just now, she sensed that her connection to an offering had been severed.
Fox Fairy frowned, her expression turning slightly grim. Could it be that some Taoist priest had discovered her existence? Impossible! She had been keeping a low profile and remaining secretive lately, and with Meng Xi as her shield, those stinking Taoist priests could never have discovered her!
She had to find a way to obtain more vital energy; she didn't want to be sealed in that dark and sunless place again!
Meng Xi's face paled, and she was completely at a loss: "What should we do?"
The loss of the offerings is a minor issue; what's worse is if she gets exposed...
Meng Xi clenched his fists and said anxiously, "Think of something quickly!"
"What can I do? It's all because you're useless. You can only trick me into giving me one tribute a month. The most important thing now is to quickly give me the next tribute!"
The fox spirit said coldly and irritably, "Otherwise, the fewer offerings you receive, the greater the impact on you will be, and your luck won't be so good afterward."
Meng Xi bit her lip tightly: "Give me three more days. After three days, I will present you with new tribute!"
She had barely finished speaking when her cell phone, which she had placed on the table, rang.
Meng Xi struggled to her feet and answered the phone. A panicked, questioning female voice came from the other end: "Master! Didn't you say before that the lucky charm bracelet would never be discovered? Now she's found the lucky charm bracelet I gave her! What should I do?"
Will the luck I stole from her be returned? Master, I bought this luck-changing bracelet from you! You have to take responsibility for me!
