Qingli waited patiently for the mother and her two children to chat.
I don’t know how much time passed, until she yawned, then she looked up at the moon outside.
It was already midnight, Qingli looked at the mother and her two children. Mrs. Chu was much calmer now, and she looked at the two little ghosts with loving care.
Qingli said, "Mrs. Chu, you'd better not stay in contact with Dabai and Xiaobai for a long time. After all, humans and ghosts are different. If their aura is contaminated on you, it will cause harm to your body."
Hearing this, Dabai and Xiaobai left their mother's arms and looked at Qingli worriedly, "Sister, is mother sick? She just held us for so long."
Seeing her two sons worried about her, Madam Chu smiled and said gently, "Dabai and Xiaobai, mother is fine. She is in good health now. You don't have to worry."
In Mrs. Chu's opinion, as long as she could be with her two sons, she would not be afraid of death. She owed her two children too much and just wanted to hold them forever. Even if they were cold at this moment, she was reluctant to let go.
Qingli said to the two little ghosts, "It's okay. I'll help your mother get rid of the ghost energy from her body later. It won't have much impact, but you'd better not have any contact with her."
The two little kids nodded. They were already big kids and didn't need their mother to hold them. Although their mother's arms were very warm, they couldn't do anything that would hurt her body.
Qingli glanced at Shopkeeper Zhao lying on the ground, and then said, "Madam Chu, it's late now. I will go back to the inn to rest. You can take care of this woman yourselves. As for Dabai and Xiaobai, I will give you and your family one day to say goodbye. I will come again at night tomorrow to send you two to reincarnation."
Mrs. Chu was reluctant, her eyes full of pain.
Qingli saw her reluctance and said, "Madam Chu, Dabai and Xiaobai have wasted a lot of time. If this woman hadn't hired someone to cast a spell to trap our souls, we would have been reincarnated as humans and started a new life. If we don't reincarnate, we can only be lonely ghosts. It's not easy for us to survive in the ghost world. We will either be eaten by more powerful ghosts to increase our cultivation, or be beaten to death by some hypocritical masters. In short, reincarnation is the best way out for us."
Hearing this, Mrs. Chu's desire to keep them disappeared instantly. Although she was reluctant, she had no choice but to hold back.
"Okay, thank you for your hard work, girl. I don't even know your name."
Qingli smiled slightly, and her originally indifferent face suddenly became gentle and no longer so distant.
"Dou Qingli is a master of the mystical arts. He is proficient in fortune-telling, exorcism, and catching ghosts. He also has some medical skills. Madam Chu can find him if she needs him in the future."
Mrs. Chu was a little surprised, "Are you a mysterious master?"
In the Southern Kingdom, the most famous Xuanshi is Li Hua, the abbot of the Li Temple. It is also because of Li Temple that many ordinary people know about the profession of Xuanshi and have some understanding of Xuanshi.
However, although everyone has heard of it, not many people truly believe it. Many people think it is just a hoax and that there are no such things as ghosts and gods in this world.
Only those who truly believe will know that many things really exist.
For example, the current Mrs. Chu.
If someone had told her before that there were ghosts in this world and that people could see those souls, she would never have believed it. But now, she firmly believed it and even had awe for the word "Xuanshi".
Qingli nodded slightly.
Madam Chu knelt down towards Qingli and said, "Thank you very much, Miss Qingli. Your kindness will never be forgotten by the Chu family."
Qingli didn't dare to accept her kneeling, so she quickly moved away and helped Mrs. Chu up.
"Madam Chu, you don't have to kneel down. You and these two little ghosts have a destiny. Doing good deeds is also the earnest teaching of your master. You will remember it in your heart and dare not forget it."
Mrs. Chu was very grateful, "Your master must be a very kind person."
Qingli smiled, took out an exorcism talisman and handed it to Madam Chu, saying, "Madam Chu, take this. Wear it with you for one night, and the evil spirit in you will dissipate."
Mrs. Chu took it hesitantly, then hurriedly said, "Ms. Qingli, I will prepare the money for the talisman for you tomorrow. I have something to ask of you."
Qingli asked, "What's the matter?"
Madam Chu said, "I want my husband and mother-in-law to see Dabai and Xiaobai. Miss Qingli, do you have a way?"
Qingli hesitated and said, "After all, humans and ghosts are different. I'm afraid it will have an impact on both of you if you meet."
After seeing ghosts, those who are mentally fragile will have a hard time in the future. Because of their suspicion, they will become psychologically fearful and have frequent hallucinations.
Madam Chu's eyes were red, and her tone was a little cold, "We must see each other. No one can forget our child. Miss Qingli, please help us. I will prepare a big gift tomorrow to thank you for your kindness."
Qingli hesitated for a moment, and seeing that Mrs. Chu's eyes were full of determination, she finally nodded in agreement.
"Okay! Wait a minute, the talisman is gone, and we have to draw it again."
Mrs. Chu was just about to ask someone to prepare the pen, ink, paper and inkstone when she saw Qingli Xiaojing take out a pen and yellow talisman paper from somewhere.
Mrs. Chu then realized that talismans could not be drawn with ordinary paper and pen.
Qingli sat at the table beside her, dipped the tip of her pen into cinnabar, and began to draw talismans.
Mrs. Chu didn't dare to disturb them and just watched quietly.
Qingli only drew two. This most common talisman was effortless to draw, and she finished it quickly. Finally, she added spiritual power to the talisman and it was done.
Mrs. Chu watched her operation with great admiration, and felt even more that Qingli was a capable master.
After putting away the things, Qingli handed the talisman to Madam Chu, and then said, "Here, you take this. When the time comes, dip it in some clean water, wet the talisman, and cover your eyes. After a breath, take it off, then open your eyes and you will be able to see Dabai and Xiaobai."
Mrs. Chu took it carefully and put it in her arms.
Qingli left, and Mrs. Chu wanted to send someone to see her off, but she refused.
I went back to the inn and had a good sleep. When I woke up the next day, the sun was already high in the sky.
Qingli went downstairs to eat, but found the lobby of the inn in a mess, and there were yamen runners.
After standing at the stairs and listening for a few words, Qingli finally understood that it was the shop assistant who reported to the authorities that their shopkeeper was missing.
That was the shopkeeper Zhao who was taken to the Chu family by her last night.
The bailiffs wanted to check everyone in the store. Qingli frowned, thinking this was too troublesome.
She simply went upstairs and escaped through the window, not wanting to waste time dealing with the bailiffs.
After leaving the inn and walking onto the street, Qingli felt several strong gazes seeming to fall on her.
At this time, Nangong Yan's subordinates were looking for the person in the portrait. Qingli's outstanding appearance unconsciously attracted their attention.
But the woman in the portrait was wearing a veil, revealing only a pair of eyes, which were exceptionally bright and fox-like, very special.
Just as they were about to walk closer to take a closer look, Qingli had already spotted them and started running quickly.
They were stunned for a moment, not knowing whether to give chase or not.
In a moment of distraction, Qingli's figure had disappeared, and there was no way to find her even if she wanted to chase her.
After getting rid of those people, Qingli saw that they didn't chase her. She thought about it carefully and felt that she didn't offend anyone. Those people had steady breaths, and each of them was a martial artist, not an ordinary person.
After thinking about it, she suddenly thought of the man who was forced by her the day before. The man with purple aura was not an ordinary person. Even if he was not an emperor now, he would be a hegemon in the future. Could it be that the man was looking for her?
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but touch her belly, not knowing whether she was pregnant or not. That man was so strong, she must be pregnant!
But no matter whether she is pregnant or not, she can't let that person find her, otherwise she will get into trouble.
Thinking of this, Qingli took out a human skin mask and put it on herself.
This was made by her herself. It is as thin as a cicada's wing, breathable and not stuffy. It feels like a different person after putting it on.
After tidying up her appearance, Qingli appeared on the street again. The inn she stayed in last night was no longer available, so she had to find a new one.
In just two days since she came down the mountain, she had already changed two inns. What a hassle!
