Although this evil spirit is indeed much more dangerous than Le Ling, if it's Chen Shi, there shouldn't be any problem, right?
She had a lot of confidence in her junior brother.
However, just to be on the safe side, they still asked Zhang Chengkang to be their bodyguard.
Her instructions to Zhang Chengkang were: "Do not interfere with the removal of the evil spirit. Just keep a general eye on it. Leave the rest to Chen Shi and Su Yining. But if Wu Hui's accomplices are discovered, take action immediately if Chen Shi cannot handle them."
Sometimes, people are more ferocious than spirits.
This is her experience as someone who has been through it.
Moreover, there's a bet involved this time...
If Chen Shi can exorcise the evil spirit, he can secure his own safety.
If removal fails...
Jiang Liu raised her head, rested it against the back of the sofa, and gently exhaled:
"Junior brother, you mustn't let your senior sister's efforts go to waste."
Suddenly, in Jiang Liu's field of vision, a dotted line broke!
"The Ling Cage has disappeared?"
Jiang Liu sat up, her beautiful eyes widening slightly.
"Chen Shi succeeded? No... The evil spirit will also come into contact with the spirit cage when it kills its prey."
She paced back and forth in the room, unconsciously biting her lip.
Realizing her lapse in composure, Jiang Liu coughed lightly before sitting back down on the sofa.
She never expected that she, who was so adept at dealing with high-risk evil spirits, would show such a flustered side.
"That's why I didn't want to take on any apprentices... I should have known better than to bet with this junior brother."
A few minutes later, Jiang Liu's groin trembled:
"Om-"
"Om-"
is a cell phone.
She immediately took out her phone, and upon seeing the signature, answered the call:
"Hello, Chen Shi?"
"Senior Sister Jiang, I'm done here," Chen Shi's voice came.
Wow, that sounds good. Looks like you've made some progress.
Jiang Liu smiled faintly, not asking about the evil spirit or clues, but instead asking:
"Are you alright?"
"I wasn't seriously injured, but the elite man's health bar is probably almost empty."
"Zhang Chengkang?" Jiang Liu was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said, "Did he lose his temper and make a move, or did you see through it?"
“Hmm… Elite male actors need to improve their acting skills,” Chen Shi replied.
"Heh, junior brother is quite clever. Alright, it's good that you're all alright."
Jiang Liu was in a good mood and asked:
"So, did you find anything?"
Chen Shi immediately recounted the existing findings.
The Flourishing Blossoms...bring forth a malevolent spirit in preparation for the resurgence of a top-tier malevolent spirit...and is directly related to the Three-Faced Malevolent Spirit...
And the mystery surrounding Su Yining's background.
"Just as I guessed, the recent changes in Nanhai City are indeed related to them. What's their name... the Prosperous Blossom Society? It sounds like an old-fashioned villain's name from an old-fashioned novel."
"Add one."
“I understand the situation. You guys take a break and head to the music store. Take that ghost senior with you. It seems her memories are very important now. We need to try to help her recall them again, using the key locations in her memory as a starting point.”
"Understood, I'll hang up now."
“Oh right…” Jiang Liu called out to him.
"Hmm? What's wrong, Senior Sister Jiang?" Chen Shi asked, puzzled.
Jiang Liu smiled faintly, a hint of pride appearing on her bright and charming face:
"Well done, Chen Shi."
He then hung up the phone.
She got up, pushed open the door and went to the balcony. The bright sun of Nanhai City shone down, so bright that it was hard to open one's eyes.
A few minutes later, a crow landed on the balcony.
"Gah..."
"Looks like someone lost the bet." Jiang Liu raised an eyebrow.
"It really exceeded my expectations... You were able to deal with that level of evil spirit in such a short time after becoming a ferryman. No wonder you took a liking to you." A human voice came out as the crow's sharp beak opened and closed.
"Stop talking nonsense, remember the bet?"
Jiang Liu got straight to the point:
"You'll handle those old relics at Lingyi Temple, and you'll act as guarantor for my disciple."
“Jiang Liu, as you know, most ferrymen are trained from childhood and their skills are passed down through their families. As the core training ground for ferrymen, it’s very difficult to get them to accept a ‘wild’ candidate,” the crow said helplessly.
"Of course I know, otherwise why would I make a bet with you? Your bet is quite big too, but it's all thanks to my junior brother's awesomeness."
Jiang Liu chuckled and leaned against the railing, looking smug.
"I understand. I'll vouch for him and make sure no one will cause him any trouble."
The crow accepted its loss, but then said:
“But Jiang Liu, things aren’t that simple with your father. We can try to mediate, but you should at least step in and resolve this yourself.”
"Ha, what's there to solve?"
Jiang Liu didn't take it seriously at all, her face full of disdain:
"Isn't he just eyeing my exceptional talent and inspiration, wanting me to team up with another ferryman he doesn't know but who is also highly inspired?"
She rolled her eyes and waved her hand:
"I'm not going. It's not going to happen. If you're not happy about it, send someone to find me in person."
Her voice turned cold: "Do you have the guts?"
Upon hearing this, the crow flapped its wings and couldn't help but take a few steps back.
He only spoke after Jiang Liu looked away:
“Jiang Liu, your strength as a top-level ferryman is beyond doubt, but the reason you can be so free is because you have no ties. I know that is also one of the reasons why you don’t want to take on apprentices and always act alone.”
The crow is not a threat, but a reminder:
"But now, you have something to worry about."
"..."
Jiang Liu turned her head and smiled:
"First, do you think I'm just a decoration? Second, you don't really think my junior brother is easy to manipulate, do you?"
The crow flapped its wings, as if it wanted to say something, but suddenly paused and abruptly turned its head to look ahead.
At the same time, Jiang Liu's pupils widened slightly, her aura became sharp, and she stared straight in a certain direction—the direction of the Dimu Private Hospital.
"There's the aura of a top-tier malevolent spirit!" The crow flapped its wings and took flight.
"I found it, at the hospital!"
Jiang Liu's heart sank—it was aimed at Chen Shi and Su Yining!
"go!"
Without hesitation, she shouldered the violin case, changed into a pair of easy-to-move boots, and rushed out, with the crow close behind.
……
……
Meanwhile, inside the Jimu Private Hospital.
Chen Shi hung up the phone and breathed a sigh of relief.
Next, let's take Su Yining to the music store.
Jiang Liu knew more than they did, not only about Su Yining's memories, but he also had something he wanted to ask—about that forgotten memory from the time in Corridor No. 2.
XX Temple, its name seems to have been blurred out, and that bracelet, why does he have no recollection of it at all?
Lost in thought, he returned to the ward:
"Senior, I've already spoken to Senior Sister Jiang, and she told us to go to the music store to find her."
"Should I go too?" Su Yining was still a little conflicted.
The aura of the top-tier ferryman is still too strong; even spirits would feel fear.
No wonder Jiang Liu said back then that Le Ling wouldn't appear in front of her.
"Don't worry, Senior Sister Jiang is still trustworthy."
After being persuaded by Chen Shi, Su Yining finally shrugged:
"Alright, alright, since you've put it that way, junior."
The two left the ward and returned to the corridor, where they saw that Zhang Chengkang was able to stand up and his complexion had recovered well.
Dude, isn't your health bar a bit too high?
Wenjie's body was still there beside her.
"Elite guy, we're going to find Senior Sister Jiang, what do you say?"
"Junior, I'll stay here and handle the funeral arrangements. You guys go ahead." Zhang Chengkang said calmly, genuinely addressing Chen Shi, not jokingly.
"Hesitating, then..."
However, before Chen Shi could finish speaking, he looked ahead in horror.
Wenjie's body was twitching!
"What's going on?! She's not quite dead yet?" Su Yining stared intently at the corpse, her hands clenching into fists.
Zhang Chengkang frowned slightly and took out the brass knuckles again and put them on.
Then, a bizarre scene unfolded...
Wenjie's body suddenly began to twist and tremble, her limbs twisting in mid-air as if being pinched by an invisible force, and she slowly floated into the air on her toes.
"What are you doing..."
Chen Shi took out the suspending rope, only to see that Wenjie's back suddenly split open, the opening filled with blood, like a pool of blood.
"Click...click..."
Immediately, the bones snapped, and a figure emerged from the crack.
"!"
In an instant, Chen Shi's ears rang, and memories from six years ago, the scene that appeared in his nightmares every night, flooded back into his mind, as if the blood in his body was boiling.
The first thing to emerge was a head.
A three-faced head with a face on the left, center, and right.
It is a top-tier malevolent spirit.
That three-faced evil spirit!
