Chapter 164 The Female Ghost
Zhou Jingru and Xiao Ma were the only two in the room with calm expressions . They sat on the couches and enjoyed their tea . Xiao Ma was busy fiddling with his phone and had not even looked at Ye Shaoyang once . He had been chatting with w.a.n.g Ping the entire time!
Li Ansheng sat beside Xiao Ma with sweat pouring from his body . He loosened his tie and said to Xiao Ma, “I’m so nervous!”
Xiao Ma finally turned his face away from his phone . He looked at Li Ansheng with a confused look, “Little Ye is here . What’s there to be nervous about?”
“Well, yeah . I know he is powerful, but this is my brother . I can’t imagine if he fails . ”
Xiao Ma smiled and looked at his phone again, “Relax, man . This is a piece of cake for Little Ye . No way it will fail . ”
Soon, Li Leqing’s face became red and his breath quickened . Ye Shaoyang waited a little longer before he pushed Li Leqing to the side of the bed . He ma.s.saged the latter’s back with his knuckles as Li Leqing puked black blood into the dustbin .
Xiao Ling could smell the stench of the black blood . Her face blushed in embarra.s.sment . It was the same smell emitted by the undead fish . Obviously, the black blood was the ‘toxin’ that had been piling up in Li Leqing’s body from the soup she fed him . Ye Shaoyang had flushed it all out from Li Leqing’s body, hence he vomited black blood .
Li Leqing puked up all the black blood in one breath and fell back onto his back motionless again .
“Mr . Ye, what is going on?” Xiao Ling asked with a troubled face .
“I cleaned up all the corpse toxin in his body . Now, with his body in a better condition, I can start summoning his Hun,” Ye Shaoyang explained as he looked at Li Leqing . “He fell into a coma because he was missing one Hun . I will summon it for him now . ”
He then proceeded and instructed Xiao Ling to close all the windows and doors in the room . Even the curtains were pulled down . Ye Shaoyang then lit a Lamp of Eternity on the table and gathered everyone in one corner to make some s.p.a.ce . He set up an altar and drew a Soul Binding Circle . Finally, he wrote down Li Leqing’s name and his Ba Zi on a talisman paper .
He chanted an incantation and a black silhouette appeared in the middle of the Soul Binding Circle . Everyone’s eyes widened and they held their breath in fear .
Xiao Ma was the only one who had already witnessed this before . He looked up once at the silhouette and continued swiping across his phone’s screen while he told Li Ansheng, “See? What did I tell you? This is a piece of cake . He can even bring back a dead person not to mention a person missing just one Hun . ”
Li Ansheng wiped the sweat from his forehead and mumbled, “Impressive!”
Ye Shaoyang pressed the silhouette’s forehead with his right thumb and with that he lifted up the silhouette . He drew the silhouette to Li Leqing’s body and opened the man’s mouth so the silhouette could enter . Then, he scribbled a Soul Binding Talisman Paper and affixed it to Li Leqing’s forehead .
Li Leqing’s face began to regain color . In less than a minute, Li Leqing opened his eyes slowly .
“He woke up! He woke up!” Everyone screamed in excitement . Li Ansheng was especially thrilled . Once Ye Shaoyang approved, Li Ansheng rushed to the bed and held his brother’s hand .
“Leqing, do you recognize me?”
Li Leqing frowned as he looked at him with a blank face . Everyone froze . Their eyes were fixated on Li Leqing . Had he lost his memory?
Li Leqing pushed away his brother’s hand, “Brother, are you crazy? How would I not recognize you?” Everyone let out their breaths in relief . That was when Li Leqing noticed that there were a group of people staring at him .
He sat up, “Who are you? What is going on?”
Li Ansheng held his brother’s hand and recounted the story to him . Then, Li Leqing tried to recall the incident, and after a while, he yelled, “I remember now! That old spirit! It did this to me!”
Xiao Ling wiped away her tears as she said to her husband, “It’s okay now . We are all just glad that you woke up thanks to Mr . Ye . ”
Li Leqing turned to Ye Shaoyang, “Mr . Ye, thank you so much for saving my life . I’ll surely repay you with a big red packet . ”
Li Ansheng glared at his brother as he corrected him, “Nonsense! Mr . Ye is Miss Zhou’s close friend . Don’t insult him like he wants your money!”
Ye Shaoyang could hear the sound of his heart shattering into a million pieces . That additional money was supposed to be in his pocket, and it flew away just like that .
He secretly sighed, “Let’s get to the point . What about this old spirit you mentioned? Tell me everything about the encounter . ”
Li Leqing took a deep breath before he started his story, “I b.u.mped into a female ghost…”
The village council members’ faces turned pale when they heard “female ghost” . Fear could be seen in Li Leqing’s eyes too . He continued, “I was checking on the plantation just above the dam on the day of the incident . It was almost sunset when I went to the dam to wash the dirt off my hands . However, my phone fell out of my pocket and into the water . It floated…”
Li Ansheng chipped in as he heard this, “You moron! How could a phone float on water?”
Li Leqing nodded, “You are right, but that did not occur to me at that time . I tried to grab my phone, but a wave of water sent it further away from me, and it was still floating . The water wasn’t deep where I was standing . I must have been hypnotized . I did not even think . I walked through the water trying to pick up my phone, but it floated even further away .
“When I finally regained my composure, the water was almost up to my neck . I could feel that my feet were stuck in the mud, and there was something pulling me down . That was when I realized that I had been hypnotized by a water spirit . Luckily, I was calm . I purposely called a random name on the hill, but n.o.body responded . Then, I acted . I mumbled that I should forget about retrieving my phone and ask for my nephew’s help since it was easier to get the phone with a person’s help . Just when I finished talking, I could feel my legs being released…”
Xiao Ma was a little doubtful of the story . He could not help but interrupt at this point, “Well, if what you are saying is true, then the spirit had captured you . Why would it let you go?”
Before Li Leqing could answer, the village head explained, “Young man, obviously you have never heard of this . This is called the Water Spirit’s Entanglement . Luckily, Leqing did not struggle in an attempt to escape; otherwise, the spirit would have dragged him into the water immediately . When he mumbled about getting another person’s help to retrieve the phone, the water spirit believed that it could kill two people, hence it let go of him . ”
Xiao Ma nodded in understanding, “Well, then, the water spirit is not a smart one it seems . ”
“A spirit can not read a person’s mind unless it possesses the person,” Ye Shaoyang gave him a look . Then, he turned back to Li Leqing, “Continue your story . ”
Li Leqing said, “Once my legs were both released, I pretended like I was calling out for someone until I managed to get to land . Then, I started running . However, before I ran far, I saw a little girl around twelve to thirteen years old . She was kneeling by the side of the dam . She was as thin as a matchstick . Her hair was messy, and she was wearing dirty old clothes . ”
Xiao ma interrupted again, “I thought you mentioned an old spirit, why is it a little girl?”
Ye Shaoyang glared at him with a stern expression before gesturing Li Leqing to continue with the story .
Li Leqing gulped before he started again,
“She was sitting by the dam on a rock . Both of her legs were in the water . She was washing vegetables in a basin . I had heard rumors before about the spirit of a little girl, but I was careless . I only felt it a little weird that a girl would wash vegetables by the dam . ”
