Chapter 44 Sending Away the Ghost
Song Miaozhu nodded. "That should be correct. But I suggest that you don't get too close to Grandpa Zhao when you're carving wood, especially not two people carving at the same time."

"Why?" Zhao Mumu asked in confusion.

"The spiritual energy has just revived and there is not much of it. The attraction from Grandpa Zhao's side is too great, and it will have some impact on you." Song Miaozhu said.

If Grandpa Zhao wasn't also doing wood carving, the spiritual energy that Zhao Mumu attracted wouldn't be so few, even if it hadn't reached the point where it could pass through the "layer" and come into reality for her.

Although Song Miaozhu only saw a spiritual light spot at the beginning, it was only because her third eye had not been fully opened at that time, and she could not see the spiritual light spot that had not actually passed through the "layer".

According to her observation, although the spiritual energy floating in the air is there, if the attraction does not reach a certain level, even if they gather around, they cannot be touched, let alone absorbed.

The light spots that can actually be absorbed are those that are closer to you and emit more obvious colored light.

It was as if it had broken through an invisible barrier and became more real.

Song Miaozhu calls the difference between before and after the breakthrough layer.

After hearing this, the old man put down his carving knife and said, "Then I won't do it for now. Mu girl, you try again!"

Zhao Mumu nodded. This time, she calmed down and stopped thinking about spiritual energy. She focused on the carving knife and wood in her hands and began to carve seriously.

After a while, the old man looked at Song Miaozhu inquiringly.

Song Miaozhu nodded slightly.

This time, it is indeed much better than before.

Ten spiritual light spots gathered on Zhao Mumu's side, but none of them showed any intention of breaking through the "layer".

Song Miaozhu looked at Zhao Mumu's skillful carving technique and felt a little strange.

Judging from her own paper-making and Grandpa Zhao's wood carving, the ability to attract spiritual energy should be related to the level of craftsmanship.

But she has only been learning paper-making for a short time, so how come her ability to attract spiritual energy is so much stronger than Zhao Mumu's?

Zhao Mumu has studied wood carving for several years, and the doll she carved is much more difficult than the ingots she folded.

It shouldn't be just this level.

But Song Miaozhu had been watching from the side for an hour or so, but no more spiritual light spots gathered.

The sky gradually darkened. Zhao Mumu carved the little doll almost perfectly before stopping to ask Song Miaozhu about the situation.

"It's much better than before." said Song Miaozhu.

"Then I will go to the studio to do wood carving in the future." Zhao Mumu said.

"It's dark, that ghost..." the old man hesitated.

"I'll go send him away!" Song Miaozhu took the rattan stick and went to the studio where Zhu Dagui was.

"I'm leaving now! I'm leaving now!" With such an evil spirit here, there's no benefit to be gained, so Zhu Dagui didn't dare to stay any longer.

He walked out the door and quickly floated away.

Now is not the time when the gates of hell open on July 7th, so he still needs to go to the place where his ashes are so that he can find the way back to the underworld.

If we don't hurry up, we won't get to the destination before dawn and will suffer during the day.

Although it is not like before, you can't hide anywhere else during the day unless you are in your own cemetery. If you show up, you will risk your soul being torn to pieces.

But the Yang energy restrains them after all, and the ghost bodies will still be damaged in the world of the living during the day.

Especially since his life span is short and his ghost power is not strong, the injury will only be more serious.

"Have they left?" Zhao Mumu asked Song Miaozhu, looking at the empty road.

"They left." Song Miaozhu said, "They probably don't dare to come again."

That slap was painful. "That's good! That's good!" Zhao Mumu's fear returned. "Until I reach the level of invulnerability, I'd better not encounter these things!"

Song Miaozhu nodded in agreement:

"Grandpa Zhao, Grandma Li has already been reincarnated. You don't need to buy paper products from me to worship her anymore. She won't receive them, and they will only benefit wandering ghosts like Zhu Dagui. They might even become greedy and follow them back home.

The spiritual energy has revived, and the restrictions on ghosts in the mortal world seem to be less severe than before. It would be a good thing to pay more attention to it."

The old man also knew how powerful it was, and he warned them in return:
"Let's keep today's events to ourselves! You two should be careful and don't tell anyone about it.

If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would never have believed what Huai Sui'er said.

It's no big deal if others think we're laughing at you, but it would be troublesome if they think we're mentally ill.

If just making wood carvings and paper-cuttings can attract spiritual energy, then there are still many people who can attract spiritual energy.

This matter will eventually be exposed, and when we bring it up again, it won’t be a big deal.”

"That's my plan too," said Song Miaozhu.

Even if she announced to the world that spiritual energy had revived at this time, no one would believe her!
The key point is that she couldn't make people who didn't have the third eye see ghosts, and there was no evidence to prove what she said.

Exposing the ghost shop would do her more harm than good.

After all, what is worrying is not the scarcity but the inequality.

"Master, Miaozhu, don't worry. If anything happens, my family should be able to help!" Zhao Mumu patted his chest and said confidently.

Song Miaozhu glanced at her. She spoke so confidently, it seemed that she had a rather powerful background!
But she was not worried. As long as she stayed ahead of others in cultivation, even if any problems arose in the future, she would not be completely powerless to resolve them.

The magical paper-making in "The Secret Art of Paper-making" is enough for her to protect herself.

The key now is to learn paper-making well and possess spiritual power.

Song Miaozhu stayed at the wood carving shop for dinner and chatted with Grandpa Zhao and Zhao Mumu about many speculations and fantasies about cultivation before leaving.

When I returned to the paper shop and opened the door, I saw the little white cat squatting at the door.

As soon as he saw her, he came over, wrapped himself around her legs, meowed and acted coquettishly.

The chubby little orange cat stood with its tail erect, anxious to lead her to the cat bowl in the corner, and its cry could be described as wailing.

Coal Ball hid in the darkness beside the counter and observed secretly.

Song Miaozhu skillfully picked up the coquettish Xuetuan and stroked her hard twice.

Then I went to the cat bowl and saw that it was empty.

Yuanbao is the king of eating in the family. Even if he is full, he can't stand the day when there is no food in his bowl for even a second.

Now there is not a single grain of cat food in the three bowls, no wonder it cries so miserably.

She put the snowball down, took the cat food from the cabinet, and filled all three cat bowls.

By the way, he also brought the little coal ball that was observing secretly to its small bowl.

While the three kittens were eating, Song Miaozhu took the opportunity to touch them.

Three kittens born from the same mother, even have three different styles of eating.

The ingots were swept away like clouds in the wind. If you didn't know, you would think it had been hungry for a few days. No matter how Song Miaozhu tried to feed it, it only had food in its eyes.

While eating, Xuetuan would respond to her touch with a soft hum.

Coal Ball ate very elegantly and slowly. When she touched its fur, it would eat even slower.
