Chapter 22: I take care of myself and never give up!
Liu Chunling woke up that afternoon and heard some noise in the kitchen. Ye Zheng was cooking in the kitchen.
Seeing that she was awake, Ye Qingtong quickly took the water from the bedside table and handed it to her, "Grandma, drink some water."
Liu Chunling didn't dare to drink. Her back was covered in cold sweat and she couldn't help looking outside.
"That Gu Ji..."
"She's in her sister's room."
"You said she was our family's enemy, is that true or not..."
Of course it’s fake, but in order to let Jiji live at home, the fake has to be real.
Ye Qingtong's expression was solemn and serious. "Really, grandma, if you don't believe my dad, do you also not believe me? We met two Taoist priests at the Jun family. Their names were... Zhang Tianyuan and something or other—"
"Master Zhang, Master Gan?!"
"Do you know him?"
Liu Chunling was incredulous and muttered, "How could it be those two? Those two are very powerful masters, but the Jun family does have some influence, so it's not difficult to invite these two masters. If what they said is true, then it might be true."
Ye Qingtong frowned. What was grandma mumbling about?
Just as she was about to reach out her hand, Liu Chunling suddenly looked up and said, "I can let her live at home, but Qingtong, you have to stay away from her. She's here to collect debts and harm our family. Let me serve her. You've been on leave for quite a while, so you have to return to school tomorrow!"
"Have you agreed that Jiji can live at your house?!"
"Master Zhang is a very powerful master. The red string you and Lingyan use was obtained from their Taoist temple by me. It was also blessed by him. I believe what they say, but I still need to verify this matter with them in person."
Liu Chunling has been living in a state of confusion these years. Ever since Lingyan was abducted, she has been posting missing person notices outside during the day, looking for her everywhere. When she comes back at night, she prays to gods and Buddhas. She has prayed to all kinds of gods and Buddhas in those two years.
Ye Qingtong sighed and didn't stop her. Grandma has always been stubborn. If she can't verify it, Jiji will not feel at ease living at home.
Liu Chunling didn't even eat her meal and just went out with her bag.
Ye Qingtong told Gu Ji about this matter. Gu Ji nodded to show that he understood, and then sent a message to Zhang Tianyuan.
Her hand was still editing the conversation in the dialog box when a message came in.
Zhang Tianyuan, Sanqing Temple: [What instructions does Master Gu have? Hehe.]
There is also an emoticon of a little kitten below.
Imagining Zhang Tianyuan's wrinkled face and then looking at this little kitten, Gu Ji felt that it was a bit eye-catching.
She simply sent a voice message, "Master Zhang, are you an old acquaintance of Sister Qingtong's grandmother?"
Zhang Tianyuan, Sanqing Temple: [The Taoist temple is bustling with people, many pilgrims, could Master Gu give us some more tips?]
Gu Ji: [Her grandmother's name is Liu Chunling.]
Zhang Tianyuan, Sanqing Temple: [Ah! I remember her! She comes every year and donates money every year. She's very devout. A few years ago, when Ye Zheng's daughter went missing, she came to me and asked me to calculate her granddaughter's whereabouts. But this is a calamity destined for that child, so I can't provide the exact address, otherwise it would reveal the secret. What's wrong?]
Gu Ji: "We had some misunderstandings before. She now thinks I'm a debtor from a past life, which is why she agreed to let me move in. Grandma has come to you and asks you not to let anything slip. Of course, I wouldn't ask for your help in vain. Give me your address. I have some talismans here and I'll send them to you."
Zhang Tianyuan's hand on the other end of the phone trembled.
Gu Ji took a few more photos of the talismans. The first two were for exorcising evil spirits and for ghosts to appear.
He knows.
But when Zhang Tianyuan took just a glance at the third one, his head buzzed.
"This is... the Heaven Gate Opening Talisman!"
The Kaitianmen Talisman is usually used to open large-scale rituals and can communicate with gods!
There were records in ancient books that they also had similar talismans, but their effects were not half as good as the Kaitianmen Talisman.
He felt that his phone had become heavy.
Zhang Tianyuan, Sanqing Temple: [Such a valuable item, are you really giving it to us?]
Gu Ji: [Yes, there will be many more places where I can use your help in the future!]
Zhang Tianyuan, Sanqing Temple: [Leave it to me, Master Gu, don't worry!]
He shamelessly added Gu Ji's WeChat, which was the best decision he had ever made in his life!
Face means nothing in front of these talismans!
After lunch, Gu Ji closed the door on the pretext of taking a rest.
She first burned incense at Lingyan's urn. In fact, Lingyan had already entered the reincarnation cycle, so even if she burned incense, she would not be able to eat.
But usually the memorial tablets of the dead are kept for the living. She looked at the photo of Lingyan as a child and touched it, "How cute."
Suddenly, Gu Ji felt a force surging in his lower abdomen.
She subconsciously thought that she wanted to go to the bathroom, and just as she put her hand on the door handle, she was stopped by the Yama Slashing Knife.
[Holding onto the spiritual platform.] Do not speak without reason.
Gu Ji: [I need to go to the bathroom. My stomach feels uncomfortable.]
"Your stomach isn't uncomfortable; it's a collision of demonic energy. Killing the Thousand Skin Ghosts has improved your cultivation. The experience points represent the fruits of your hard work over time, but you haven't digested them yet. The demonic energy is accumulating in your body, with nowhere to go, causing discomfort in your Dantian."
[If a person wants to become a god, they must practice. Demons need demonic energy, and humans need spiritual energy. However, you are a judge, and the judges belong to the underworld. The demonic energy and spiritual energy in your body need to be balanced. What you need to do is widen your meridians and train your mind. This is not a difficult task for you, but widening the meridians will be a little painful.]
Gu Ji sat cross-legged on the bed, [I'm not afraid of pain!]
No matter how painful it was, it was proof that she had the strength to become powerful. It was not as painful as being locked in a pigsty and being beaten and abused.
She followed Wuwang's instructions and chanted the magic formula.
When two energies that should not exist together were running rampant in the body, Gu Ji realized how painful it was that Wu Wang said it was a little painful.
It hurts so much!!!!
She bit her lower lip, and drops of blood rolled down from the tips of her teeth to her chin. Just as they were about to fall onto the bed, Gu Ji immediately blocked them with her clothes.
The patchwork quilt must not be dirty!
It felt like a needle was poking into every pore, and every breath stimulated the meridians in her body. The pain, swelling, numbness, and all the senses were amplified in her body.
There was nothingness in front of my eyes.
She gritted her teeth and could feel the red and white colors biting each other.
Gu Ji's eyes turned golden again, her pupils stretched into vertical lines, and her forehead bulged slightly, as if something was moving under the skin of her forehead.
A voice whispered in her ear.
"Give up, give up, it's so hard, why bother?"
"You have been adopted by the Ye family. As long as you are content to be the adopted daughter of the Ye family, you will have a peaceful and smooth life. Why suffer so much?"
"Give up, give up——"
"Shut up!" Gu Ji shouted in a hoarse voice.
Her eyes were bloodshot, and even though the blood made her look embarrassed, sweat soaked the corners of her clothes. Gu Ji held on to the quilt tightly, holding on to her courage and everything.
"I only care about myself and I will never give up!!!"
