Linghu Lan quickly reached out to help her up, "What's wrong?"
The woman opened her mouth, seemingly wanting to confide, but seeing Linghu Lan's young and innocent face, she shook her head, her eyes filled with fear and despair. "What's the use of telling you? You can't help me."
"How do you know I can't help you if you don't tell me?"
"You... what is your relationship with Master Ku? What are you doing at her house?" The woman seemed to remember something, and hope rekindled in her eyes.
Linghu Lan thought for a moment and said, "I am her friend, do you... want to exorcise the ghost?"
The words "exorcising ghosts" seemed to give the woman immense courage. She gripped Linghu Lan's arm tightly and nodded vigorously: "It's not exorcising ghosts, it's a cat!"
cat! !
Linghu Lan's heart skipped a beat, but she remained calm as she looked at the woman and asked softly, "What's wrong with your cat?"
“My cat…” The woman suddenly covered her face and cried, her voice filled with fear and sadness.
After she had finished crying, she began to tell Linghu Lan the story of a spirit cat, albeit in fits and starts.
"I have a male cat that I've had for several years. I raised him from a kitten to adulthood, and we have a very deep bond. However, my cat is a bit wild and often plays outside and doesn't come home very often."
Hearing this, Linghu Lan nodded. Having raised an orange cat for the female lead in another world, she was all too familiar with her feline overlord's habit of spending the night out and flirting with other women. "Hmm, and then?"
“One night, it didn’t come back, but I didn’t think much of it. This has happened quite often before. Anyway, it always comes out to sleep in during the day. I thought that day would be the same, but the next day, the cat still didn’t come back. I started to panic, so I printed out a picture of the cat and went downstairs to look for it. Then someone told me…”
The woman started crying again, and Linghu Lan patted her shoulder to comfort her.
The woman nodded, rubbing her eyes as she continued, "Then, the people in the neighborhood told me that my cat seemed to have been stolen. To be honest, I was heartbroken to hear that my cat was missing, after all, I raised it from a kitten!"
"Yes, I can understand, after all, so much emotion was invested."
"Later, I forgot about it, but yesterday when I got home from get off work, I found my child playing with that cat's fur..."
The woman seemed extremely frightened as she spoke, and she probably would have fallen if Linghu Lan hadn't been supporting her.
Linghu Lan hurriedly asked, "How can you be sure it's cat skin, and not that the cat isn't dead?"
"No, dead! I'm sure it's dead." The woman grabbed Linghu Lan's arm suddenly, squeezing it painfully. "Because the cat that played with my baby really was a dead cat. Besides appearing in cat form, it mostly appeared as a skin, jumping from one end to the other, sometimes even wrapping its skin around the baby..."
The woman trembled violently and could no longer continue. She bowed deeply to Linghu Lan and said desperately, "You are Master Ku's friend, you must know the magic of exorcising ghosts. Please, save my child."
Linghu Lan's heart sank immediately; the plot of Wenmo Ghost Story had actually come to life.
