Chapter 194 So this thing doesn't like me?
Upon hearing this, Shen Yuepo abruptly turned to look at Feng Jin.
His gaze was fixed firmly on the short sword.
"This can't be... another one of my magical artifacts, can it?" Shen Yuepo asked.
Feng Jin finally shifted his gaze from the sword to Shen Yuepo's face. "This is a magical artifact forged by Yun Jingyan using your blood."
Shen Yuepo's pupils suddenly contracted.
Feng Jin's voice was chilling as he continued:
"Back then, he exhausted all his energy, using the methods of weapon forging, and incorporated divine materials to forge this sword."
"This sword contains your blood and is incredibly powerful. However... before he could make the sword recognize him as its master, I severely injured and captured him."
"This sword was thrown into the mortal world by him before he was captured, using his last bit of divine power to forcibly tear through space. Perhaps he wanted to use this sword to connect with you in the future."
Feng Jin glanced at the bewildered Lu Jin, "He probably never expected that in this life, before he could even find the sword, it would fall into the hands of an ordinary person with no connection to him."
Lu Jin, listening from the side, was completely bewildered, her mouth agape: "Blood? Recognition of master? Yun Jingyan?"
"No... Master Shen, Mr. Feng, what are you talking about? I don't understand a word you're saying. What does this sword... have to do with my bad luck?"
Feng Jin glanced at him, his tone carrying a barely perceptible hint of sarcasm:
"Although this sword has no evil or resentment, it has already developed a trace of nascent intelligence and has its own pride."
He pointed to the short sword, "It fell into your hands and sensed that you were not its master, nor a capable person, so naturally it was unwilling to submit."
"It instinctively rejects connection with you, and this rejection transforms into misfortune that surrounds you. It's not that it intends to harm you, but its very existence is a calamity to those who are not of God."
Lu Jin suddenly realized, and excitedly slapped her thigh, "So that's how it is! No wonder! No wonder I get water stuck in my teeth and trip over things when I walk, it turns out this thing doesn't like me!"
His gaze toward the sword was immediately filled with disgust.
After hearing Feng Jin's explanation, Shen Yuepo looked at the short sword in her hand with extremely mixed feelings.
She paused for a moment, not immediately following Feng Jin's instructions to bind the sword to her owner with blood. Instead, she raised her head, looked at Lu Jin, and asked calmly, "Lu Jin, can I buy this sword?"
She paused, then added, "I'll offer double the price you bid."
Lu Jin was stunned for a moment, then shook her head vigorously, looking like she couldn't wait to get rid of him:
"What are you selling! Master Shen, I'd be more than happy to have you take it! I'd even give it to you for free! This thing is just a nuisance to me, so please take it away! Just don't let it bother me anymore!"
He was genuinely scared.
Antiques and art value are worthless in the face of bad luck that can even send you to the hospital choking on water!
Seeing his resolute attitude, Shen Yuepo didn't mince words and nodded, "Thank you."
With a flick of her wrist, the short sword and its scabbard vanished into thin air and were stored in her Reincarnation Ring.
After doing all this, she thought for a moment and took out a yellow amulet folded into a triangle shape.
The talisman emitted a faint fluctuation of spiritual energy.
"Here, take this."
Shen Yuepo handed the talisman to Lu Jin, "Keep it with you. It's stronger than the last peace talisman. Evil spirits won't dare to get close, and it can also improve your aura and luck to some extent."
This can be considered compensation for the loss of his sword.
Lu Jin took the amulet with both hands and immediately felt refreshed, as if the gloom that had shrouded him for many days had dissipated considerably.
He was overwhelmed with gratitude, "Thank you so much, Master Shen! I've hit the jackpot!"
He carefully put the talisman close to his body.
All told, he already has three talismans with him! He can walk around with his head held high from now on!
As soon as Shen Yuepo and Feng Jin stepped out of Lu Jin's house, Shen Yuepo's phone rang.
It's Xiao Yizhou.
"Moon Soul".
Xiao Yizhou's voice carried a hint of seriousness, "Are you free now? Could you come to my house? My cousin Yulan's matter... has some twists and turns, and I may need to explain it to you in person."
Shen Yuepo glanced at Feng Jin beside him, who nodded slightly.
She replied into the phone, "Okay, I'm coming over now."
The two took a taxi again to the Xiao family's house.
Upon entering the Xiao family's living room, Shen Yuepo noticed that besides Zhou Wanqing, Xiao Yizhou, and Zhou Yulan, there was also a middle-aged couple with worried expressions, presumably Zhou Yulan's parents.
When Xiao Yizhou saw Feng Jin following behind Shen Yuepo, he was clearly taken aback for a moment, but quickly recovered and greeted him politely.
Zhou Wanqing also quickly got up.
"Master Shen, Mr. Feng, please have a seat," Zhou Wanqing greeted them, and a servant immediately served hot tea.
Zhou's parents also stood up awkwardly, looking at Shen Yuepo with hope and unease in their eyes.
Zhou Yulan kept her head down, her hands clasped nervously, and her face was deathly pale.
The presence of the two infant spirits on her shoulder seemed stronger than in the restaurant. After seeing Feng Jin and Shen Yuepo, they quickly hid behind Zhou Yulan.
After a brief introduction and pleasantries, Xiao Yizhou rubbed his temples and cut straight to the point, his tone serious:
"Moon Spirit, to be honest, Yu Lan had a boyfriend she had been dating for many years. They had a very good relationship and were even at the point of discussing marriage."
"But during the wedding preparations, Yu Lan discovered that... her husband was cheating on her with her best friend."
He glanced at Zhou Yulan, who had her head down, and said angrily, "Yulan couldn't accept it and immediately chose to break up."
He paused, then looked at Shen Yuepo, "Not long after the breakup, Yu Lan discovered she was pregnant. She was devastated. After much deliberation, she decided to have an abortion."
He spoke the last few words with great difficulty.
Upon hearing this, Zhou Yulan's shoulders trembled violently, and she sobbed silently. Zhou's mother also couldn't help but wipe away her tears.
Xiao Yizhou took a deep breath and continued, "However, my aunt heard from some older people that if the unborn child does not agree to an abortion, it may become a spirit that haunts the mother."
"She was worried about Yu Lan, so... she asked someone to find a Master Anning who was said to be very effective..."
At this moment, Zhou Yulan, who had been silent all along, raised her head, her face still wet with tears, and took over the conversation: "That Master Anning said he could communicate with the child in my belly, and then he performed a spiritual ritual for me."
“After the ritual, he told me… he said there were two sensible spirits inside my stomach.” Her voice trembled slightly as she repeated the master’s words.
He said, 'The babies know your predicament. They don't resent you, and they want to leave.'"
Zhou Yulan paused for a moment, as if trying to convince herself:
"The master also said that all you need to do is prepare three sets of clothes for the child for all four seasons, burn plenty of paper money and ingots, and have someone sincerely chant sutras for him to help him smoothly enter the next cycle of reincarnation..."
"That way, he can leave in peace, and neither of them will owe each other anything, and they can both live in peace."
Zhou's mother nodded repeatedly, her voice urgent: "Yes, yes! That's what the master said! We followed the master's instructions, burned the clothes and paper money, and performed the rituals..."
“But recently, Yulan’s health has been getting worse and worse, and she keeps having nightmares at night. We also wonder if we’ve done something wrong and angered her.” As she spoke, she couldn’t help but cry again.
"Just as we were about to contact that master, Yizhou called."
