Chi Qiangwei was puzzled when she saw the blood.
She went up to check and saw that the pool of blood was clearly visible, reflecting her pale and weak face.
Suddenly, his face in the blood changed, becoming Xu An's face.
It only appeared for a second before disappearing.
Chi Qiangwei opened her eyes, revealing a surprised expression.
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
Chi Qiangwei got up, opened the door, and there was Qiao Shize.
He brought her food every day at mealtimes.
"Rose, are you feeling better today?" Qiao Shize asked with some concern, looking at her still pale face.
Chi Qiangwei, afraid that Qiao Shize would worry, simply hummed in agreement.
Her health didn't improve; in fact, it got worse.
The injuries she sustained this time are simply impossible to heal.
Turning her head, she saw that the pool of blood on the floor was gone.
A question arose in her mind.
"Chi Qiangwei, what are you looking at?" Qiao Shize asked, peeking out from behind the screen.
Chi Qiangwei smiled and said, "I didn't see anything."
Qiao Shize placed the food he brought on the dining table, and Chi Qiangwei sat down, opened the lid, and began to eat.
Qiao Shize watched her eat, and after she finished, he packed up the lunchbox and prepared to go back.
Chi Qiangwei asked, "Can you stay tonight?" She thought of the pool of blood that had appeared earlier.
Qiao Shize was taken aback for a moment, then nodded, "Okay."
Chi Qiangwei's apartment has several bedrooms, and he slept in one of them.
Inside Qingyun Temple.
Bai Xi lay on the rocking chair, once again sensing the aura of the ancient artifact. She took out the Book of Fate.
She opened the book and found Chi Qiangwei's name. She looked at Chi Qiangwei's nine lives again and found that her fate was somewhat unusual.
After some quick calculations, the last point that had seemed odd to her became clear.
“…I see.” Bai Xi was not surprised after finally figuring it out.
Lin Xinxi floated over and said, "Sister Baixi, can Chi Qiangwei's tribulation be resolved? I hope she won't be reincarnated again."
When she was telling stories in the live stream, she and Yun Nuan, the two ghosts, knew that Sister Baixi was talking about Chi Qiangwei.
Bai Xi stood in front of the Taoist temple, looking at the towering mountains in the distance, and sighed, "The tribulation of nine lifetimes is not so easy to resolve."
Then, "However... I see a glimmer of an opportunity."
...
That night, as Chi Qiangwei lay in bed sleeping, she felt something approaching her.
Immediately, she heard a familiar voice.
“…Chi Qiangwei”.
“…Chi Qiangwei”.
Chi Qiangwei woke up, and suddenly, a black mist brushed past her face. The next second, a black hole appeared in the wall.
Why won't you let me live?!
A shrill scream reached Chi Qiangwei's ears.
"Even if I die, you won't have peace!"
Countless black wisps of energy crashed down, leaving numerous charred black holes on the walls surrounding the bedroom.
In the past, she would not have been afraid of these dark energies, but now she is exhausted and it is extremely difficult to eliminate them.
Just as the black mist attacked her again.
At that moment, Qiao Shize heard the commotion and rushed in.
The moment Qiao Shize entered, the black energy touched the merit light naturally emanating from his body and immediately vanished without a trace.
"Are you alright?" Qiao Shize asked, seeing Chi Qiangwei leaning against the bed, panting heavily.
Chi Qiangwei shook her head.
Qiao Shize: "What just happened?"
Chi Qiangwei: "Xu An has become a vengeful ghost to seek revenge."
Qiao Shize was taken aback.
He said, "Why don't we ask a master for help?"
Chi Qiangwei nodded, "Mm."
That evening, Bai Xi, who was staying at Qingyun Temple, received a message from Qiao Shize.
Master, help!
Upon seeing this, Bai Xi led Lin Xinxi and Yun Nuan to Chi Qiangwei's house.
Before leaving, she temporarily entrusted the management of the Taoist temple to Mo You.
Chi Qiangwei's apartment was pitch black.
No one was home, but there were signs of a struggle.
Bai Xi smelled a strong stench of blood in the air.
Lin Xinxi asked worriedly, "Sister Baixi! Could something have happened to Chi Qiangwei?"
Bai Xi took out her phone and dialed the police.
Lin Xinxi and Yun Nuan were somewhat bewildered by the master's actions.
Human police can't handle matters involving vengeful ghosts, right? Even if you want to call the police, you should contact the Bureau of Non-Natural Affairs.
After Bai Xi reported the incident to the police.
Lin Xinxi couldn't help but ask, "Sister Baixi, this is..."
Bai Xi said, "There are not only vengeful ghosts here, but also people."
Lin Xinxi was still scratching her head, somewhat bewildered.
Suddenly, a cloud of black mist attacked Bai Xi from outside the window.
Bai Xi didn't make a move, but Yun Nuan immediately came over and blocked the attack.
She leaped up and began fighting the black mist.
But in no time, the black mist was forced to retreat. Unable to defeat Yun Nuan, it turned and ran.
"Where are you going?" Yun Nuan quickly chased after her.
Her figure quickly disappeared into the darkness.
Seeing this, Lin Xinxi didn't know whether she should go after him or not.
Bai Xi said, "You should go too."
Lin Xinxi nodded, and then followed Yun Nuan in the direction she was going.
On the other side, Qiao Shize dragged Chi Qiangwei away as they fled.
In the darkness, the men in black behind them relentlessly pursued them.
As Chi Qiangwei ran, she suddenly coughed up a mouthful of blood.
"Chi Qiangwei!" Qiao Shize saw her and stopped.
Chi Qiangwei pushed him, "Don't worry about me, just run!"
Qiao Shize said, "No, we'll run together."
While the two of them hesitated, the men in black quickly caught up and surrounded them.
Then, a girl who looked only fourteen years old stepped out from a group of men in black.
She toyed with the dagger, smiling as she looked at them, "I've finally caught you."
Qiao Shize asked in bewilderment, "We have no grudge against you, why are you arresting us!"
Han Xiangxiang asked, "Why are you being arrested?"
"Of course, it's one of you who has an exceptionally long lifespan. As for you? I'd like to see how lucky you are, whether you can live forever."
Upon hearing her reason, Qiao Shize's eyes widened. "...Are you a pervert?"
Kill him simply to see if he could die?
Han Xiangxiang laughed and said, "No, I am a devil."
She looked at Chi Qiangwei, "Oh dear, with such a long lifespan, you're about to die?"
Chi Qiangwei glared at her fiercely, "Even if I'm about to die, I can still kill you."
Han Xiangxiang: "I'm so scared."
Qiao Shize: "How do you know she has a long lifespan? Do you also know she is...?"
He hesitated to utter the last word, "demon," still clinging to a sliver of hope.
Upon seeing this, Han Xiangxiang said, "What is it? She only knows that she must have a secret, otherwise, she would look like this when I saw her 25 years ago, and she still looks like this 25 years later."
Qiao Shize looked at Han Xiangxiang's face, which appeared to be only fourteen years old, with surprise and doubt in his eyes.
"You met Chi Qiangwei twenty-five years ago?"
