Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
When everyone saw that Master Chi and Ruan Shenglin had come out not long after entering, they heaved sighs of relief. They then noticed that Master Chi and Ruan Shenglin’s faces were very strange. Their expressions were both pale and unsightly.
If it was just Ruan Shenglin, no one would think much of it. However, Master Chi’s face was pale and unsightly at that moment. Everyone’s hearts thumped. Could it be that something had happened when Master Chi followed Film Emperor Ruan inside?
Feng Yuanlin took in Shuyan’s grim and unsightly expression and went over to ask Ruan Shenglin what had happened. When he asked the question, he looked worriedly at Shuyan.
Chi Shuyan suppressed her emotions for the time being. She didn’t want Brother Feng to worry, and would rather that the calendar date just now was a coincidence or an accident. However, thinking about it carefully, it wasn’t that simple. For a moment, she couldn’t think of anything she might have overlooked. She looked up at Brother Feng expectantly. “Brother Feng, what day is it today?”
Before Feng Yuanlin could speak, Wu Haoming and Xiao Shan answered Master Chi first. They had no idea why Master Chi was asking such a simple question with a heavy expression. The two rushed to say, “It’s 29 October. Sister-in-law, if you don’t believe me, I can show you my phone?”
!!
Wu Haoming really took out his phone as he spoke. The signal in the village wasn’t very good, but the calendar app was still fine.
Chi Shuyan glanced at the screen and stared fixedly at the date ’29 October.’ She was stumped.
Xiao Shan thought that Master Chi didn’t believe him, so he immediately turned to Ruan Shenglin and the others. “Manager Yang, Film Emperor Ruan, is it 29 October today? Old Wu and I aren’t wrong, right?”
Yang Kun and Xu Tong subconsciously nodded. Ruan Shenglin was also puzzled as to why Master Chi was asking this question again. He had clearly replied to Master Chi earlier, and from the moment he said the date, “29 October,” Master Chi’s expression had immediately seemed very off.
In the end, Feng Yuanlin echoed, “Shuyan, it’s indeed 29 October today. What’s wrong?”
Chi Shuyan had too many guesses and distracting thoughts, but she couldn’t make sense of things for the moment, so she couldn’t say anything at all. Afraid that the others would think too much because of her, she gritted her teeth and forcefully suppressed the trace of uneasiness in the depths of her heart. She regained her composure and glanced at the others, then at Ruan Shenglin. “Come, let’s go back and resolve Film Emperor Ruan’s problem first.”
Except for Feng Yuanlin, the others had no idea at all that anything was wrong with Ruan Shenglin. They were curious, but tactfully didn’t say much. In any case, they would know when they arrived at Master Chi’s place.
Not long after, the group returned. Ruan Shenglin, Yang Kun and Xu Tong also followed them into the living room.
As soon as they entered the living room, Ruan Shenglin, Yang Kun and Xu Tong wanted to say something, but hesitated, mainly because they were still worried that something had happened to Shenglin. On the way here, the two of them studied Shenglin’s face very seriously. Seeing that he looked good and was in good spirits, Yang Kun and Xu Tong relaxed.
At that moment, Master Chi arranged for Shenglin to sit next to her, and had someone bring over a candle. As soon as it was lit, Xu Tong couldn’t wait any longer. She immediately asked Chi Shuyan carefully and concernedly, “Master Chi, what’s wrong with my Shenglin? Is he okay?”
Yang Kun also looked at Master Chi seriously.
Ruan Shenglin also knew that his wife was worried about him, so he hurriedly waved his hand and said, “I’m fine, I’m really fine. Don’t I look like I’m okay?” After a pause, Ruan Shenglin specially asked Master Chi, “Master Chi, tell me, am I fine?”
“Where’s the thing I told you to bring back? Put it on the table!” Chi Shuyan didn’t reply to Ruan Shenglin, but had him put the s.h.i.+rt containing the Buddha statue on the table. The others looked at each other in confusion, not knowing what Master Chi was up to.
For a moment, no one dared to disturb Master Chi’s thoughts, and they remained silent.
Ruan Shenglin immediately untied the knot and carefully handed over the Buddha statue. “Master Chi, do you want this?”
“Did you really pick this up and stick it back together? When did you stick it back together?” Wu Haoming was the first to ask the question when he noticed the oddity about the Buddha statue. He was staring at Master Chi, so he didn’t see Ruan Shenglin’s expression freeze on the side.
Feng Yuanlin took in Ruan Shenglin’s stiff expression and his eyes flashed. He didn’t ask much. In any case, there had to be a reason Shuyan had told Ruan Shenglin to bring the thing back.
When Xiao Shan, Yang Kun and Xu Tong saw that Master Chi had really gotten Ruan Shenglin to bring the Buddha statue back and had even glued it back together, they were all extremely curious. Apart from curiosity, there was also some fear in their eyes.
Everyone knew that this Buddha statue wasn’t anything good, and they wanted to stay as far away as possible.
But why did Master Chi get Film Emperor Ruan to pick up this thing again?
Chi Shuyan took the Buddha statue and took a few glances at it. She explained casually and succinctly that it was useful, then looked at Ruan Shenglin and said, “Let me know immediately if you feel anything!”
After saying that, Chi Shuyan didn’t waste time talking nonsense and directly placed the hand of the Buddha statue over the candle. The others looked at Master Chi in confusion.
Chi Shuyan tried her best to control the distance, but Ruan Shenglin still covered his hand and yelled. He almost jumped up in confusion and horror. “It’s… it’s hot, it’s hot!”
When Ruan Shenglin cried out, stupefied at the heat, everyone else was just as stupefied and at a loss, and had no idea at all what was going on.
When Chi Shuyan put down the Buddha statue, Ruan Shenglin no longer felt the heat. Just as he sighed with relief, he saw Master Chi gently knock the head of the Buddha statue on the table. Ruan Shenglin felt dizzy and yelled frantically, “Stop knocking.” When Chi Shuyan stopped, he hurriedly asked in horror, “What’s going on? Master Chi, what on earth is going on?”
Chi Shuyan’s eyes swept over everyone’s stupefied faces, but she wasn’t in a hurry to explain. Instead, she took out an Exorcism Talisman and a Pure Yang Talisman, and stuck them both on the Buddha that was on Ruan Shenglin’s back. Soon, a mournful and terrifying howl rang out in the air, before it was abruptly cut off. Not only that, everyone saw thick black mist suddenly rise from Ruan Shenglin’s back, and it quickly turned into black water that dripped onto the floor.
Seeing the cadaveric qi around Ruan Shenglin dissipate, Chi Shuyan sighed with relief. “Done!”
