Chen Meilin's Cry for Help (2)

Chi Shuyan immediately asked Chen Meilin what happened.2

Chen Meilin immediately recounted the entire incident. She was originally very happy that she had gotten the talismans. Although she still had lingering fears about that evil spirit when she returned home, she felt quite at ease when she thought of the talismans. As soon as she got home, she immediately gave them to her family. Afraid that the evil spirit would harm her daughter, she tied two of the talismans on a red string for her daughter.

She also gave Father Meng and Jiang Xue some talismans.

When she first went back, she had been worried about what Master Chi said about the evil spirit coming to her door that night. Who would have thought that would really be the case? It was a good thing she found Master Chi in time. With these talismans, the evil spirit wasn't able to retaliate against her family.

Chen Meilin originally thought that she would just wait for Master Chi to deal with the evil spirit, but who would have thought that something would happen to Father Meng first? She didn't think much of it at first, but Father Meng's behavior had become increasingly strange over the past few days. In the past, the two of them slept in the same bed as husband and wife.

Recently, however, Father Meng suddenly offered to move to another room. If it was just this, Chen Meilin wouldn't think too much about it and at most might wonder if her husband had a mistress.

One night, however, Father Meng suddenly suggested that she not bring the talismans to bed, and just place them next to the bed, which should still keep the evil spirit away. Chen Meilin had the sense that something wasn't right, but she couldn't say exactly why.

At that time, she was perplexed and didn't dwell on it. She almost heeded Father Meng, but she still had lingering fears about that evil spirit; how could she dare be parted from the life-saving talismans? She naturally shot him down.

Of course, Father Meng was sleeping in another room. The more she thought about it, the more uneasy she became. It wasn't until last night that she was roused from her sleep by a noise at the door.

At that time, she woke up, but didn't make a sound. Hearing the constant noise, she was a little curious but terrified. Fortunately, she was clutching a talisman, which reassured her slightly.

She secretly opened her eyes, and when she did, her heart almost jumped out of her chest in fright. She saw Father Meng standing at the door and staring fixedly at her in the dark bedroom.

Chen Meilin was so frightened that she broke out in a cold sweat. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that she was scared out of her wits. Her heart turned cold and she almost screamed. However, she gritted her teeth and held it in as she closed her eyes and pretended not to know anything.

As Chen Meilin related this, her voice kept trembling. She suppressed it and continued, "Master Chi, I… I wonder if… my Old Meng… was possessed by that thing?"

Chi Shuyan's face was a bit grave as she let Chen Meilin go on.

"Master Chi, my heart was especially cold and scared at that time. I had some suspicions. Following that, I realized that as long as I got close to Old Meng, the talismans I was carrying would turn black. I even specially looked for the talismans on Old Meng, but I didn't see a single one!"

At that point, Chen Meilin choked. "Master Chi, I really wonder now… I really wonder if my Old Meng…" was possessed by the ghost.

"It's best that you don't say those words at home!" Chi Shuyan's words immediately silenced Chen Meilin. She thought of how she had discovered last night that the girl's soul had inexplicably disappeared. It was clear that she had underestimated these evil spirits.

Chi Shuyan was afraid that the talismans she gave Chen Meilin wouldn't be able to suppress the evil spirit. She told Chen Meilin to be careful and that she would rush over immediately that afternoon!

Only then did Chen Meilin cry tears of joy. "Thank you, Master Chi. Thank you, Master Chi!"

Chi Shuyan said, "Don't say the words 'Master Chi' at home. When the time comes, I'll go over as a relative. Don't anger that thing!"
