Chapter 54 Blue Hyacinth I will always be by your side from now on.
Wang Xiaolian and Fang Wenwen both became blind in car accidents.
Fang Wenruo, who was extremely concerned about Fang Wenwen's blindness and death, naturally treated Wang Xiaolian as Fang Wenwen, and took care of Wang Xiaolian as patiently and carefully as if she were his sister.
The trainee spiritualists finished their breakfast at Jiang Zhilan and Wang Xiaolian's home. To prevent Fang Wenruo from overhearing their conversation and potentially upsetting the ghost, they opened the security door, went downstairs, and held their meeting in the car.
"Fang Wenruo's ghost looks very peaceful."
Shi Chan unwrapped a candy wrapped in paper and shared it with his companions in the car, saying,
"But judging by the fact that she mistook a stranger for Fang Wenwen, she's incredibly obsessed with her. Obsession can be like a landmine: calm on the surface, but in reality, it only takes the slightest step to explode."
"Taking Fang Wenruo's soul away from Wang Xiaolian is likely to lead to a landmine."
Lin Zhuyue opened the candy and asked:
"But, we must make sure Fang Wenruo's ghost leaves Wang Xiaolian, right?"
"Yes, it's the duty of a spiritual master to prevent the wandering of the dead and to prevent them from haunting the living."
Wen Miyan turned back from the passenger seat and said,
"Although Fang Wenruo has no ill intentions, it's wrong for the dead to have prolonged contact with the living. Over time, no matter how careful Fang Wenruo is, Wang Xiaolian will be in trouble."
"Whether it's roundabout or forceful, we have to separate them."
Ye Yangjia reminded:
"With our strength, we can definitely try to forcibly separate Fang Wenruo and Wang Xiaolian."
Fang Wenruo's ghost might be very powerful, but the four apprentice spiritual masters present are not to be trifled with in terms of fighting strength. As long as there is no ghost cultivator like Minghui, there is basically no possibility of them losing in a fight.
"But none of us want to do that."
Shi Can took the phone and sent the location to Ye Yangjia.
"Before things develop to the point where we have to take drastic action, let's try a roundabout way. This is where Fang Wenruo used to live, and it's also where Fang Wenwen jumped off the building. Let's go over and take a look. Maybe we can find some useful clues."
The four of them informed Jiang Zhilan and set off in the car.
Fang Wenruo and Fang Wenwen once lived in the Biguanyuan residential complex, which is quite far from where Jiang Zhilan and Wang Xiaolian live. Biguanyuan is a long-established residential complex, and the buildings are older, but it has an elevator, making it more accessible to the visually impaired.
There are many small supermarkets on the first floor of the community.
There were not enough tissues in the car, so Lin Zhuyue and Shi Can went into a small supermarket to replenish their supplies.
The small supermarket also serves as a real estate agency. On the wall as soon as you enter the door, there are notices of houses for rent.
Shi Can went to buy some tissue paper, and Lin Zhuyue was standing at the entrance reading the rental notice. As she was looking, she realized something. Shi Can had just paid the supermarket owner when Lin Zhuyue grabbed his sleeve and pulled him over.
Room 1001, Unit 1, Building 3, Biguanyuan is for rent. It has two bedrooms, one living room and one bathroom. It is equipped with air conditioning, water heater and internet, and is fully furnished and ready for move-in.
Isn't this just a coincidence? Fang Wenruo and Fang Wenwen used to live in Room 1002, Unit 1, Building 3, right across from Room 1001.
At this moment, an aunt in her fifties came over and calmly pinched Lin Zhuyue's arm.
Lin Zhuyue gasped in pain and looked up at the aunt.
The aunt turned her back to the supermarket owner and said in a whisper:
"Let's talk outside."
Lin Zhuyue and Shi Can followed their aunt out.
Shi Can rolled up Lin Zhuyue's sleeves, leaving red marks on the girl's fair arms.
"If you have any problem, just pinch me."
Shi Can frowned and put his sleeve back to its original shape, saying,
"Why pinch her? She looks like she can't stand being pinched."
"Whoever pinches someone doesn't pick on the weak. Look at how tall and strong you are. If I slap you back, I'll be hospitalized."
Auntie said to Lin Zhuyue and Shi Can,
"I want to tell you two that you can't rent that house. There are two sisters living in the house across from it. One of them became blind and jumped off the building, and the other was in a car accident. I live downstairs from them, and there's always that... oh, blind cane in the hallway. There's always that sound of a blind cane knocking on the stairs, and it's quite loud."
"The family who rented the house also often heard noises. A while ago, they came home in the middle of the night after drinking and seemed to see something. They immediately moved out."
Auntie advised earnestly:
"That house is quite cheap, but it's in the school district, so it's easy to rent out. It's cheap for a reason. You two must not be fooled. If you rent a house like this, anyone with a weak horoscope will have a rough life."
She pinched Lin Zhuyue hard and called him out of the small supermarket just to tell Lin Zhuyue and Shi Can not to rent this house just for the sake of cheapness.
Lin Zhuyue and Shi Can certainly didn't want to rent a house.
But Auntie also told them what they wanted to know -
There were probably supernatural phenomena in the places where Fang Wenu and Fang Wenwen used to live.
Lin Zhuyue tried to get more information:
"Auntie, you live downstairs, aren't you afraid?"
"I haven't done anything wrong to anyone, so why should I be afraid?"
Auntie shook her head and couldn't help but blame the neighbor upstairs.
"The family that moved away had a naughty child who once snatched the blind stick of a girl with poor eyesight while she was squatting to tie her shoelaces. When the girl's sister came to the house to ask for an explanation, the family said it was too much to bother with a child. It was quite unpleasant."
"You have something to hide, so you worry that others will harm you."
Lin Zhuyue, Shi Can and the aunt chatted for a while before saying goodbye to each other and returning to the car with the tissues.
Shi Can opened the trunk, put the tissue back, and chatted with Wen Miyan and Ye Yangjia about what the aunt he had just met had said.
"I have to go up and take a look."
Lin Zhuyue took out the basic configuration tool kit and said,
"Fang Wenwen's ghost might still be around. I remember you and Teacher Fu both said that it's very difficult for the soul of someone who died by jumping from a building to leave the place where they jumped."
Wen Miyan nodded and replied, "That's indeed the case."
"Don't worry, apply some medicine first."
Shi Can grabbed Lin Zhuyue's hand, took out a spray bottle of medicinal wine, and sprayed it on the red skin that was pinched, saying,
"You seem to have gained a bit of weight. Come to think of it, I haven't really trained you properly lately. Are you still shooting accurately?"
This medicinal wine is brewed by Yunze Medical Clinic itself. It is very effective in reducing swelling and relieving pain. Apart from the fact that it has a strong smell and is too yellow in color, which can easily stain clothes, it has no disadvantages.
After spraying the medicine, Lin Zhuyue let her arms air dry. After the medicine had dried, she rolled up her sleeves.
The four of them did not all bring the basic configuration tool kits. Lin Zhuyue and Ye Yangjia brought bags, while Wen Miyan and Shi Can only brought some simple tools. The four of them entered the building together.
The walls were a brilliant white, freshly sprayed, and still had a distinct smell of lime. The building was lined with various pipes that had been added later, and the workers hadn't avoided them when spraying the walls, leaving them covered in a layer of white.
Lin Zhuyue squatted beside the pipe.
There was a faint fingerprint on the pipe.
Wen Miyan moved the compass closer, and the red agate needle trembled slightly, indicating that there was a slight supernatural reaction here.
Ye Yangjia had already called the elevator down.
After the four people got on the elevator, Shi Can deliberately placed the compass close to the button for the 10th floor. As expected, the compass also responded, and the response was stronger than the fingerprint on the pipe in the corridor.
Shi Chan pressed the button for the tenth floor, the elevator doors closed, and the elevator car carried them up to the tenth floor. When the elevator doors opened again, the compass needle had begun to slowly move, which meant that this floor had a strong supernatural reaction and it was likely that ghosts often moved here.
They walked out of the elevator and found that the closer they got to the door of Room 1002, the stronger the supernatural reaction became.
"There seems to be a smell..."
Lin Zhuyue sniffed carefully and said,
"It smells a bit like a sewer with a lot of hair. Is this the result of someone not taking care of the house for a long time?"
"It's the smell of death."
Shi Can took out the master key from Lin Zhuyue's bag.
"This smell is common at mortuaries, even in the best-kept corpses in freezers. People call it the stench of death, but it's actually the smell of death itself."
Shi Can said to the old door in front of him:
"Excuse me, I need to open the door."
Lin Zhuyue summoned the golden amber fire.
Wen Miyan and Ye Yangjia also took Lingwu Fangtian and Yinshuang in their hands.
If any emergency occurs after Shican opens the door, they will take action immediately.
Shi Chan inserted the master key into the keyhole. He put his ear close to the keyhole, turning the key while listening to the sound inside the keyhole. After a long while, there was a "click" and the door lock was opened.
Many pieces of furniture in the room were covered with white dust sheets, and the thin, transparent curtains were closed, allowing only a gentle light to filter in, with dust floating in the light.
Shi Can walked in cautiously, holding the Lingwu Jueren in one hand and the compass in the other.
The interior of the house looked very quiet, but the compass was very responsive and the needle was moving quite rapidly, as if to indicate that ghosts were often active in this house.
Just as the four of them were searching everywhere for supernatural reactions, they suddenly heard a sound of something falling from the direction of the balcony.
The four of them quickly rushed to the balcony.
There was only a blue basin upside down on the ground. Apart from that, there was nothing else strange on the balcony.
Shi Can held the compass, whose needle was turning extremely fast, gritted his teeth, and said in a low voice:
"Fang Wenwen, I know you are here. Come out and let's talk. I know it's rude of us to break into your house, but we wouldn't be here if your sister didn't need you."
Shi Can had no intention of attacking his elder sister Fang Wenruo, nor did he want to cause any unpleasantness with his younger sister Fang Wenwen. After he made his announcement, he stood on the balcony, holding a compass and waiting.
About ten minutes later, just when the four of them had given up hope that Fang Wenwen would show up on her own initiative, Yin Qi gathered and a skinny and slender figure appeared before them.
The girl leaned on a cane, her eyes dim, and stammered:
"Sister...Sister needs me?"
She seemed very timid, but because Shican mentioned her sister, even though she was extremely reluctant, she still appeared in front of the four people in front of her who made her feel very dangerous.
"Where is my sister?"
The girl asked expectantly,
"I haven't seen her in a long time."
She didn't know when it started, but it became so hard for her to see her sister. She had to wait a very long time for her sister to come visit her. Although she felt a little regretful, she was happy that her sister finally had her own life and no longer had to be tied to her every day.
"She mistook you for a girl who had also lost her sight in a car accident. She stayed with that girl and took good care of her."
Lin Zhuyue gently held Fang Wenwen's hand.
"You have to help your sister and let her know that the girl is not you. You and your sister should both leave. Staying in this world forever is not good for either of you."
Fang Wenwen was stunned for a long time, as if trying to digest Lin Zhuyue's words.
"I don't seem to understand what you are saying..."
Fang Wenwen touched her heart with the hand that was not held.
"But I can feel that you are doing this for my sister and me. I am willing to do anything to help my sister. Please, take me to see my sister."
Lin Zhuyue felt a little sad when she saw Fang Wenwen's reaction.
Fang Wenwen was indeed willing to do anything to help Fang Wenruo, including sacrificing her own life.
But did she ever think about how heartbroken Fang Wenruo must have felt when she flew down from the tenth floor like a butterfly? Fang Wenruo would not have found an easy life because of her departure, but would only be filled with regrets and scars from then on.
Fang Wenwen, you are a very stupid person.
"Wait a moment, I'll find something to possess."
Ye Yangjia put down the basic configuration tool kit, quickly left the house, and went downstairs to look for something in the car.
Not long after, he returned with a flowery umbrella dripping with water. It was daytime, and the yang energy outside the house was stronger, which was not good for the ghosts, who were only carrying yin energy. However, as long as the ghosts could hide under the umbrella, they would be safe from harm.
Fang Wenwen was a little scared, but she cooperated very well. She lowered her head when Ye Yangjia chanted the spell and was obediently put into the umbrella.
The four people took Fang Wenwen's soul out of Room 1002, carefully helped Fang Wenwen lock the door, and took the elevator downstairs.
Shi Can did not drive the car directly back to the residential area where Jiang Zhilan and Wang Xiaolian lived. Instead, he located the nearby flower market and drove there with his companions.
The flower market was warm, and many flowers were in full bloom. The trainee spiritualists picked out a pot of blue hyacinths that were in full bloom.
“It smells so good.”
Lin Zhuyue sniffed the hyacinth and said,
"The flowers themselves are beautiful, no wonder Fang Wenwen likes them."
After paying, he walked around the flower market with the hyacinths.
Shi Can whispered to Lin Zhuyue, "What kind of flowers do you like?"
Lin Zhuyue replied, "I usually plant two rows of big-mouthed flowers. They can eat a lot of zombies."
Shi Can: “…”
What's the difference between you and the random replies?
They walked around the flower market but didn't see any flowers that particularly excited Lin Zhuyue.
On the contrary, Shican himself was so attracted by the fish sold in the tropical fish shop in the flower market that he couldn't walk. He picked a few fish and asked the shop to ask SF Express to send the fish to the Tiancheng Express Collection Office in Linhai City.
By the way, after Shi Can entered the flower market, the mobile phone signal was very poor and he couldn’t open the payment interface for a long time. Lin Zhuyue paid for the fish for him.
Shican used a lot of effort to keep his expression straight.
When Lin Zhuyue went to the bathroom, Shi Can couldn't help laughing.
"Look at you, you're such a fool."
Ye Yangjia turned on the camera function on his phone, switched to the front camera, handed the phone to Shi Can, and said,
"It's just five tropical fish, isn't it? It's not that expensive. Why are you so happy?"
Shi Can held the phone and said in surprise:
"Who is this? So handsome."
Ye Yangjia rolled his eyes and snatched the phone back.
"You've never eaten soft rice, so you don't know how delicious it is."
Wen Miyan patted Ye Yangjia's shoulder and said to Shi Can,
"Take it easy. Don't get crow's feet from laughing at such a young age. You're such a jerk. Your face is one of your few assets. You must protect your beauty."
Shi Can turned his head away and said:
"We immortal men will never get crow's feet."
Lin Zhuyue came out of the bathroom quickly.
Shi Can once again held his face in check, managing his expression and not showing a trace of joy.
"Are you in a bad mood?"
Lin Zhuyue walked beside Shi Can holding a blue hyacinth and couldn't help asking,
"Why do you look like that? It's like someone owes you money."
"Yeah, I'm in a bad mood."
Shi Chan lowered his head and said,
"Please find a way to coax her."
Wen Miyan and Ye Yangjia, who were walking behind, turned their heads to the sides silently, thinking:
This bastard is really shameless.
Lin Zhuyue handed the blue hyacinth to Shi Can, took out his cell phone, transferred 100,000 yuan to Shi Can, and asked:
"Is this okay? Will it make you feel better?"
Shi Can: “…”
Although he didn't say that living a life of luxury wasn't tasty, he didn't really want to live a life of luxury. He thought Lin Zhuyue was really weird sometimes. How did she develop this habit of sending money whenever she disagreed with him?
Four people walked out of the flower market.
Shi Can drove, humming a little tune, and followed the navigation system back to Jiang Zhilan and Wang Xiaolian's residence. During the daytime on weekdays, there were still plenty of parking spaces in the community, and Shi Can easily found a parking space and parked his car.
Lin Zhuyue held the blue hyacinth, Ye Yangjia held an umbrella, Shi Can and Wen Miyan brought their respective basic configuration tool kits, went upstairs and knocked on Jiang Zhilan's door.
Jiang Zhilan asked who it was, and Lin Zhuyue answered. Soon, footsteps were heard from inside the door, and Jiang Zhilan walked quickly over to open the door for them.
Wang Xiaolian had already gotten up. She was holding a cup, groping for water as she stood in front of the water dispenser. A shadowy figure stood beside her. When the cup was almost full, the figure reached out, and the dispenser's button snapped back, cutting off the flow of water.
When Ye Yangjia entered the room, the black shadow seemed to sense a familiar breath, slowly floated over, and circled around Ye Yangjia twice.
Ye Yangjia couldn't see the black shadow clearly, but he could feel a strong sense of coldness around him.
Ye Yangjia used his spiritual power to isolate the black shadow from the umbrella in his hand.
Of course they would reunite Fang Wenruo and Fang Wenwen, but the time was not right yet. They hadn't made any preparations yet and couldn't let the two souls meet. If one of them got angry and attacked, it would likely hurt everyone present.
However, perhaps sensing Fang Wenwen's presence within the umbrella, Ye Yangjia's act of applying spiritual power to the umbrella was mistaken by Fang Wenruo as an attempt to harm Fang Wenwen. The shadow suddenly sprang up and viciously pounced upon Ye Yangjia.
Ye Yangjia dodged to the side, leaving a bloody scratch on his face.
The agate needle on the compass spun rapidly, just like when it encountered an evil spirit in the past, almost spinning out.
Shi Can and Wen Miyan immediately summoned their spiritual weapons. Lin Zhuyue's reaction was even faster. With her excellent inspiration, she sensed something before the black shadow suddenly appeared. She placed the hyacinth in her hand on the table as quickly as possible and pressed Fang Wenruo's ghost to the ground.
Fang Wenruo naturally refused to be controlled. She resisted fiercely, but Lin Zhuyue's spiritual power was too strong. No matter how she struggled, she had no way to escape from Lin Zhuyue's grip.
"No! Don't hurt her..."
Wang Xiaolian threw away the water cup and rushed over.
"Please, don't do this to her..."
Wen Miyan stopped Wang Xiaolian.
Jiang Zhilan couldn't see Fang Wenruo's soul, nor did she know what had just happened, but she just felt a strong sense of unease.
"It's okay, don't be afraid."
Wen Miyan said to Jiang Zhilan,
"Just leave it to us, we will take care of it."
Shi Can took the umbrella from Ye Yangjia, squatted in front of the struggling black shadow, and said:
"Fang Wenruo, we have no ill intentions. We only brought her here because we wanted you to meet your real sister. She's safe inside the umbrella, and she wants to see you too."
Shi Chan only tried to comfort her tentatively.
He didn't know the extent to which Fang Wenruo's spirit had been damaged since his death. Perhaps Fang Wenruo could understand him, but it was also possible that he couldn't. If Fang Wenruo couldn't calm down enough for a proper conversation, he would use his absolute blade to shatter Fang Wenruo's spirit into pieces.
Lin Zhuyue felt that the souls of his men gradually stopped struggling.
Wen Miyan handed the compass to Shi Can. Judging from the speed at which the needle turned, the yin energy here was still a little agitated, but it was much calmer than before.
Lin Zhuyue looked at Shi Can silently.
Shi Can nodded, and Lin Zhuyue carefully let go of Fang Wenruo and stood up.
Shi Can used red thread and talisman paper to create a small barrier, enclosing Fang Wenruo inside the barrier.
Ye Yangjia opened his umbrella and chanted a spell.
After a while, Fang Wenwen's figure appeared in the barrier.
Fang Wenwen's eyes were dim, without any luster in them. But she still felt Fang Wenruo's presence. She raised her head and called out in confusion:
"elder sister……"
“Wenwen…Wenwen…”
The shadow called out stutteringly,
"Wenwen..."
There was a tearful tone in her voice: "Wenwen..."
The dark mist that shrouded Fang Wenruo gradually faded, revealing her true soul. She was only twenty-seven years old, her hair tied in a ponytail, with clean, beautiful makeup. Her eyes were gentle and watery, reflecting the lives of her loved ones.
"Sister, I'm here."
Fang Wenwen groped and hugged Fang Wenruo,
"From now on I will always be by your side and will never leave."
