Chapter 67: Can’t Say It’s Unlucky or Lucky
This is a women's boudoir.
When Yun Qingqing pushed the door open, she felt that the room was noticeably colder than the corridor, and the light was much dimmer.
"Hiss...Miss, this place is really dirty!" Qiao'er didn't wait outside. She bit her lip and followed her in, grabbing her arm and holding her close.
"I'm afraid you'll still come in." Yun Qingqing was a little amused.
Qiao'er felt a little embarrassed:
"Miss, I'm even more scared when you're not around..."
Her young lady is so powerful, so of course it would be safer to follow her, right?
Yun Qingqing glanced around the room and her eyes fell on a jade fan on the table.
She walked forward, took the fan in her hand, and lifted the white jade pendant underneath. A clear light flashed in her black eyes, and her face showed thought.
"Is this the thing causing trouble?"
"Princess, you are truly amazing." Mu Hongling paused for a moment and said, "Princess, I have something to ask you... Although this fan may be evil, it has never harmed anyone. Could you please not... not destroy the spirit attached to it?"
Yun Qingqing looked at her:
"The spirit in this fan is the girl from your building, right?"
Mu Hongling nodded and sighed softly:
"This jade-bone fan originally belonged to a sister in the building named Luo Chuling. Unfortunately, she had a tragic fate. She suddenly fell ill and passed away a few months ago. That's when the problems started..."
Her voice was soft and pleasant as she told the story.
This fan was Hongwei's most beloved thing, and she always held it in her hand and played with it. So when she was buried, Mu Hongling took the initiative to bury the jade bone fan with her.
Everything was normal at first, but on the seventh night after Luo Chuling's burial, the fan suddenly appeared in Tianxiang Pavilion. Many guests and girls in the building saw the fan moving around in the corridors on its own. Some guests also said that they heard a woman's voice ringing in their ears, but when they turned around, they saw nothing.
This incident scared many guests, but it did not cause a big fuss. The guests who had not seen the jade bone fan just treated it as a joke and did not take it too seriously.
However, the next day, the jade bone fan was found in Luo Zixi's room. From then on, Mu Hongling tried all kinds of ways, but could not get rid of the fan. It would always reappear in Luo Zixi's room the next day.
The room gradually became eerie, and every now and then the jade bone fan would swing around at night, scaring the guests.
Some guests even swore that they heard the woman's voice and begged him to take her away.
Some of the girls also said that they heard voices, and it really sounded like Luo Zixi's voice!
After a period of such trouble, people became panic-stricken, the number of customers decreased, and it seemed that the business was on the verge of collapse.
Mu Hongling said this and sighed softly:
"All of these sisters in Tianxiang Pavilion have miserable lives and are homeless. If I can't keep this business going, who knows where they will end up..."
"If Princess can truly appease Sister Zixi and send this jade bone fan away, you will have saved the sisters' shelter. On behalf of all the sisters here, I thank you for your great kindness."
After hearing what she said, Yun Qingqing couldn't help but ask:
"Have you been trying to get rid of this fan yourself? Didn't you go to a temple or a Taoist temple to ask for help?"
"Actually, I did look for it at first," Mu Hongling sighed, "but those monks and Taoist priests said that the fan was possessed by Luo Zixi's vengeful spirit, and that she must be eliminated to uphold justice. But Zixi was also a pitiful person. She had never harmed anyone, so why would she have to end up with her soul scattered after death? I really didn't want to do that, so I never looked for those people again."
Yun Qingqing nodded and smiled slightly:
"This is actually a good thing. Otherwise, they might not be able to deal with this fan, and they might even commit a sin."
"Is that so?" Mu Hongling asked in surprise, "Then Zi Xi..."
"It's hard to say whether her life is unlucky or lucky, because this fan obscured her soul, making it impossible for the ghost to find her and leading her to the underworld to reincarnate. It's also because of the spiritual energy of the fan that she didn't lose her nature and turn into a fierce ghost." Yun Qingqing said.
"But her condition is getting worse and worse. If we don't deal with it quickly, it's only a matter of time before she turns into a ghost."
When Mu Hongling heard her say this, she couldn't help but look worried.
"But now that I'm here, don't worry, she'll be fine."
As she spoke, Yun Qingqing put her two fingers together, and a talisman appeared out of thin air. A light flashed in her eyes, and she stuck the talisman on the jade bone fan.
"Congeal!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the jade bone fan suddenly rose into the air on its own and unfolded!
