Don't talk nonsense, this is the Emperor's Banner

Chapter 49 Courage
My daughter Hongxia:

Time flies, and before I knew it, more than 30 years have passed. Back then, when I was a father, I was out there working, my heart was like a weed, and I just wanted to be free and easy, so I neglected you and your daughter, and our relationship broke down, and we eventually separated.

Over the years, I have missed you very much. I still remember the day you were born. I was ecstatic. You were lying in my arms, so small, with sparse hair. At that moment, I had a feeling I had never had before, like drinking ice in the summer, spreading all over my body...

Having written this, Shen Siyuan stopped writing and looked at Lu Guanchang, not knowing how much sincerity there was in what he said.

Maybe what he said was true, but why did it change later? He abandoned them and ignored them for many years...

Only when you feel pain, you will realize your regret.

If Shen Siyuan hadn't wanted to try and see if there was any merit in helping someone like him, he would never have helped him.

"What's wrong?" Seeing Shen Siyuan stop writing, Lu Guanchang came back to his senses.

"Nothing, just continue talking." Shen Siyuan said.

Lu Guanchang then continued to organize his language.

He began by reminiscing about some interesting things that happened between father and daughter when they were young. He then expressed his guilt towards his daughter. Finally, he talked about himself. He felt unwilling to see all his life's efforts go to waste. He believed that all this should belong to her. He hoped that she could come to Binhai to meet him.

From beginning to end, he never said that he was dead, he only said that he didn't have much time left.

It is understandable that Lu Guanchang said this. If he said that he was dead, many things would be unclear.

"That's all. Thank you for your help, Master." Lu Guanchang said respectfully.

"I'll send it to you tomorrow by express delivery. Ci'en is nearby, so you should be able to receive it the day after tomorrow..."

"Okay, okay, thank you Master, thank you~" Upon hearing this, Lu Guanchang thanked him repeatedly, his face full of joy.

Shen Siyuan waved his hand and said, "You go out, I need to rest too."

"Okay, then Master, I'll... I'll go to Ci'en first." He said after thinking for a while.

"That's fine." Shen Siyuan nodded.

In this way, he would know in advance whether his daughter would come to Binhai.

After Lu Guanchang went out, Yin Xingyue and Doudou came in from the window riding on the gloomy wind.

"You two don't have to stay here with me, especially Doudou. Go home and be with your parents."

Shen Siyuan picked up his phone, which contained many messages from Jiang Wenxin. It seemed that she was talking to him about a blind date the day after tomorrow, but in fact she was asking if Doudou was with him or if she was lost.

"Oh? Do Mom and Dad miss me? I miss them a little bit too."

Doudou, who had forgotten about playing, finally remembered his parents after Shen Siyuan reminded him.

"Goodbye Sweet Potato, goodbye Sister Xiaoyue..."

She waved her little hand to the two of them, then rode on the cold wind and flew out of the window in a hurry.

“This little thing…”

Shen Siyuan shook his head helplessly, then looked at Yin Xingyue next to him and said, "If you have nowhere to go, just stay here."

Yin Xingyue shook her head and said, "I'll go see if the police have found him..."

Shen Siyuan knew who she was talking about, so he nodded in agreement.

So Yin Xingyue also rode the cold wind and left. She looked at the time and it was almost half past ten.

So I picked up my change of clothes, went to the bathroom, and decided to take a shower and go to bed.

But when he finished taking a shower and came out of the bathroom, he found that Yin Xingyue had returned at some point and was sitting obediently on the sofa, as if waiting for him to come out.

"What's wrong?" Shen Siyuan asked in surprise.

"He's dead." Yin Xingyue said calmly.

His incoherent words made Shen Siyuan stunned for a moment, then he reacted and asked hurriedly, "You mean, your stepfather is dead?"

"He is not my father." Yin Xingyue corrected seriously.

"Okay, I said the wrong thing. Fang Yunlou is dead? How did he die?"

Yin Xingyue nodded, then shook her head, and then said timidly: "I saw him and came back. I don't know how he died."

Shen Siyuan walked forward and touched her head.

"Don't be afraid. He should be afraid of you now. Didn't you say that to Doudou?"

Yin Xingyue's fear of Fang Yunlou was due to the control and mental intimidation that Fang Yunlou had exerted on her when she was alive. She was just a little girl in elementary school, and she was still full of unknowns and confusions about the world. Her mother didn't support her, she was bullied at school, and her teacher didn't like her...

Eventually she collapsed completely and chose to commit suicide.

But her death doesn't mean that the fear of Fang Yunlou will disappear.

However, she has to get out of this situation by herself; Shen Siyuan can't help her.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here. You are my protector now, and I won't let anyone else hurt you..."

Shen Siyuan's words seemed to give Yin Xingyue great courage. A light blue light began to emerge around her body. This was the light of the Nether Fire that she had gathered in her body.

Yin Xingyue raised her head, looked at Shen Siyuan, and said softly: "Thank you, brother."

Shen Siyuan smiled slightly, patted her head and said, "Go, do what you want to do."

Yin Xingyue nodded, then turned into a gust of cold wind and disappeared into the house.

Fang Yunlou died a miserable death, suffering great torture.

He died so unwillingly. His career was about to reach a new level, he still had a lot of money to spend, and countless wonderful things waiting for him to enjoy. How could he die like this?
But dead is dead, no matter how furious he was, no matter how he roared at the murderer and pounced on him to fight for his life, it was of no use.

In the end, he could only choose to go home sadly. Home is the final destination of the soul. Even if he becomes a ghost, home still gives him enough sense of security.

Along the way, he also saw all kinds of ghosts, few of which could maintain a complete human form. Most of them were weird and twisted, like himself.

The upper body is human, but the lower body is like an octopus, covered with slimy tentacles. These tentacles are very short and disgusting.

As a new ghost, after seeing the other side of the world, he was completely in the dark and was very cautious, trying to avoid contact with other ghosts.

He finally breathed a sigh of relief when he returned home cautiously, but when he saw his still beautiful wife, he couldn't help feeling resentful.

If I die, why should she still be alive? Moreover, all my property will belong to her.

When he thought of her taking his property with her and moaning under some man in the future, his eyes turned red with hatred, and his heart was filled with hatred. Countless tentacles began to grow, eventually spreading throughout the house, and he completely turned into an octopus monster.

He used his tentacles to wrap around Yang Xuejiao and took her away with him.

Even though he was being burned by the three fires on her body, he was still unwilling to give up.

Through his unremitting efforts, the three fires in Yang Xuejiao's body became weaker and weaker, like a candle in the wind.

But at this moment, a gust of cold wind suddenly blew into the house, and a small figure appeared in front of Fang Yunlou.

When Fang Yunlou saw the person coming, his eyes showed evil and a terrifying smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"I...I'm not afraid of you anymore."

Blue flames rose up.

PS: Let me explain, ghosts cannot harm people, but being haunted by ghosts will bring bad luck, decline in fortune, misfortune, financial loss or serious illness.

I mentioned this in Chapter 7, and the setting has not been changed.
