3239: Calm

Calm

When they looked up, they saw a woman who was dressed in rags but had a stunningly beautiful face lying on the soft couch with a crutch in one hand and a playful and devilish grin on her face.1

They were startled by the woman's cold eyes and instinctively wanted to flee. However, when they wanted to quickly float out of the room, the woman set the crutch in her hand on the ground after she finished speaking, and a soul array appeared, trapping them inside.

"Do you think you can get away now that you're here?" Feng Jiu squinted and looked at the ghosts.

"Aah! Let us out! Who are you? There's no enmity between us. Why do you want to harm us?"

Feng Jiu chuckled as she listened to the ghosts' cries. Her hand moved to the bottle gourd on her waist, which had been given to her by her sister Wanyan Qianhua. She unscrewed the lid and aimed the mouth of the gourd at the ghosts.

"Your only fault is that, as ghosts, you do not stay where you belong and instead come out to harm people. It is fine if I do not run into you. But now that we've crossed paths, is there any reason why I shouldn't collect you?"

As she spoke these words, the gourd's spirit energy surged, and a mighty vacuum sucked the ghosts inside. The room's chilly, desolate air dissipated as the ghosts vanished.

She shook the small gourd and hung it around her waist. After glancing at the soul array, she made a mark with both hands and the soul array on the ground was undone.

She completed all of these in less time than it took a column of incense to burn. She turned on the lamp in the room. When the lamp was on, she was surprised to see that the man who was supposed to be sleeping on the bed had woken up and was looking at her.

"Are you awake?" Feng Jiu arched her eyebrows in surprise.

"Did you save me? "Second Young Master Qin looked at the unfamiliar woman and wanted to get up, but found his body had no strength. He could only ask, "Who are you?"

"I am your saviour." Feng Jiu answered. She limped towards the bed, sat down beside it, and instinctively took his pulse.

"Hmm, your vital force has returned, your pulse became stronger, and most importantly, the aura of evil spirits in your body has dissipated. I believe you'll be fine after another medicated bath."

As she spoke, Feng Jiu withdrew her hand. Sensing his perplexed gaze, she asked, "What? Is there something else you'd like to ask?"

"Who, who are you?" Second Young Master Qin asked, thinking that the woman was very strange. She stayed calm despite being in the same room in the middle of the night. There was also the scene just now. Those were…

Feng Jiu rose to her feet, supporting herself on her crutch as she glanced at him. "You can call me Ghost Doctor," she said. As she spoke, she turned around, lay down on the couch, draped herself with a blanket, and closed her eyes.

"Sleep well! When you wake up tomorrow, your body will have recovered significantly." Feng Jiu said with her eyes squinted. She paid no more attention to him and went to sleep.

Obviously, she neglected to inform the Qin family, who were waiting and unable to sleep. So she kept them waiting all night until the next morning when Patriarch Qin rushed to the courtyard as soon as it was light…

"Ghost Doctor? Ghost Doctor?" Patriarch Qin called out from the doorway. Even though he heard nothing from inside, he didn't dare to open the door.
