Chapter 56

“The ‘evil’ magical instrument has to be extracted as soon as possible, but…”

Bai Yunzi kept staring at the locked door of the Patriarch’s house, with a particularly solemn tone. “Before extracting the ‘evil’ magical instrument, we have to put down the female ghost outside town. Her agonizing breath is too strong. Along with her possessing her kin’s body recently, her spiritual power has gotten more powerful. Once she combines with the other spirit in the body, the consequences will be undesirable.”

Li Yan’s hatred for Zhang Clan villagers has been increasing each day, but she could not enter Zhang Clan Town to hurt them due to the presence of the ‘evil’ magical instrument.

Until the film crew’s arrival, these outsiders did not possess an aura that could intimidate the ghostly spirits, and thus they became easy targets to be possessed. Li Yan had tried to possess Qin Su’s body the other day.

Later on, she possessed Zhang Yan’s body in the river.

Because Zhang Yan was Zhang Yunshu’s daughter and was related to Li Yan by blood, Li Yan could possess her body and use it to enter Zhang Clan Town.

Now that Li Yan and Zhang Yan’s spirits were in the same body, Li Yan suppressed the latter’s spirit. Zhang Yan’s spirit might be even assimilated.

“Taoist Master, you have to help Zhang Yan. Besides… Li Yan is actually a pitiful person.”

Ning Huanxin sighed.

“If Taoist Master has a chance, please perform a religious ceremony to help her soul find peace, and let her reincarnate.”

One person was not responsible for Li Yan’s tragedy. She was initially a good girl who harbored hope and looked forward to expecting a good life.

Regrettably, fate turned out unexpectedly, fooling humans.

Bai Yunzi decided to find the Patriarch to know more about the situation, so he asked Ning Huanxin and Jiang Lixing to bring Yang Ah Nuan back.

Yang Ah Nuan was a small child with much mischief. She stood straight beside Ning Huanxin and Jiang Lixing, eyes shining as she looked at the duo.

“Little Girl, what’re you looking at?”

Jiang Lixing asked with a smiling face. Hearing his question, Yang Ah Nuan blinked and pouted lightly at Ning Huanxin, who was standing at the side. “This sister is a little weird.”

“Huh?”

Jiang Lixing could not help but take another glance at Ning Huanxin while Ning Huanxin’s eyes shone. She looked at Yang Ah Nuan with a surprised expression. “What did you see? What’s weird about me?”

“Well, I don’t know.”

Yang Ah Nuan then shook her head subconsciously. “I don’t know what’s wrong, but I just find you weird. Your spirit… is peculiar.”

Ning Huanxin did not belong to that era. Naturally, she was different from the ordinary person.

She did not expect Yang Ah Nuan to feel that.

If so, did Bai Yunzi feel it too?

Ning Huanxin did not speak further. Jiang Lixing looked at her a few more times but did not probe further.

The duo brought Yang Ah Nuan back to Siheyuan. The moment they entered the compound, they saw Qin Su standing there with a grim expression.

“Brother Qin.”

Jiang Lixing greeted Qin Su, but Qin Su merely nodded his head faintly, not looking well.

“I’ll accompany Brother Qin and chat with him for a while. You can bring Ah Nuan in first,”

Jiang Lixing muttered to Ning Huanxin in a soft voice as he turned his head to her.

“Okay.”

Ning Huanxin brought Yang Ah Nuan to her room, but the thought of Zhang Yan’s room being next door dampened her mood immediately.

“Your room is so small.”

Yang Ah Nuan could not help but complain as soon as she entered.

Ning Huanxin did not care much. “This place is indeed a little small. You can sit on the bed.”

Yang Ah Nuan did not reply. Instead, she walked to the bookshelf, and her big eyes stared at the row of books with much curiosity. Without realizing, she had already walked to the window side.
