Wei Panyang’s familiar voice suddenly rang out. Chi Shuyan tilted her head and saw Wei Panyang, who ran over to her excitedly and repeated that Shi Ran had woken up. Next to him, a calmer Xiao Ningjin also looked excited.

Chi Shuyan wasn’t surprised and was also quite glad that Shi Ran was awake. She nodded at Wei Panyang and Xiao Ningjin. She was about to speak to Old Yu, when he said politely, “Shuyan, there’s no hurry. If you have something urgent on, go do that first.”

Chi Shuyan did want to completely resolve the matter of the ghost substitute, and couldn’t leave for a while. However, she was quite worried about what Teacher Yu had just said.

No matter how she listened to it, she felt that it was abnormal. Although she couldn’t be certain for the time being that Teacher Yu’s sister had been possessed or if it was due to some other ailment, she felt that there was something strange about this matter.

However urgent the matter was, however, she didn’t have time at the moment. Hearing Old Yu’s words, she relaxed in her heart. “Teacher Yu, I’ll contact you as soon as I’m done!”

Old Yu relaxed and hurriedly waved his hand. “It’s fine, it’s fine. Apart from the fact that her complexion doesn’t look too good, my sister is fine. The child in her stomach is fine too. It’s very healthy. There’s no hurry!”

Chi Shuyan nodded, but she wasn’t as relaxed as Old Yu. The child had yet to be born even after a year and two months. If it wasn’t Nezha, then what was it?

Before she met the person in question, Chi Shuyan couldn’t jump to conclusions, and a contemplative expression flashed in her eyes. After parting ways with Old Yu, Chi Shuyan had Wei Panyang and Xiao Ningjin lead the way.

Xiao Ningjin remained silent, but Wei Panyang couldn’t help but ask curiously, “Master Chi, why was that Teacher Yu looking for you just now? He isn’t haunted, is he?”

At the word “haunted,” Wei Panyang looked spooked, while a silent Xiao Ningjin looked curious.

Chi Shuyan looked at the dismayed Wei Panyang. This involved a personal family matter, so she didn’t mention it. She narrowed her eyes and asked, “Are you that curious about other people’s affairs?”

Wei Panyang had always been a gossip by nature. Master Chi wasn’t wearing a cold expression, but when Wei Panyang met those sharp eyes, he subconsciously cringed and hurriedly shook his head, indicating that he was just asking.

Before they knew it, the three of them reached the ordinary ward which Shi Ran had been transferred to a day or two ago. When they entered, a doctor and nurse were examining Shi Ran.

Chi Shuyan clearly saw that although the boy on the bed was awake, he was terrified and didn’t let anyone touch him. As soon as anyone got close, he screamed as if provoked.

It was only when Xiao Ningjin hurriedly walked over to stop him that Shi Ran’s expression improved, but the fear in his eyes didn’t diminish.

Xiao Ningjin knew what he was worried about, and he immediately said, “It’s fine, it’s fine. Master Chi has already subdued that ghost thing! Really, it’s fine. Master Chi subdued that thing!”

As soon as Xiao Ning said that, Wei Panyang also hurriedly said that Master Chi had taken care of everything. He said excitedly, “Shi Ran, Master Chi is here to see you!”

Chi Shuyan clearly sensed that as soon as Wei Panyang said that, the doctor and nurse looked at her strangely with some wariness in their eyes.

Chi Shuyan: …

Chi Shuyan saw them looking at her warily, as if she were a cultist. She then looked at Xiao Ningjin and Wei Panyang, who looked like believers whom she had brainwashed. To avoid complications, Chi Shuyan immediately interrupted Wei Panyang and greeted Shi Ran. “Long time no see. I’m Chi Shuyan, a student at Yanjing University!”

The doctor and nurse’s strange and guarded gazes improved. Chi Shuyan was afraid that Wei Panyang and Xiao Ningjin would mention “Master Chi” again, so she sat on the side, picked up a pear, and unhurriedly peeled it as she prattled on about ordinary things. The doctor and nurse took a few more looks to confirm that nothing was amiss before they left.

After the doctor and nurse left, Wei Panyang caught a clue and ran over to close the door. He then explained to an alarmed Shi Ran, “Really, Shi Ran, Master Chi really subdued that ghost thing. I saw it with my own eyes! Master Chi is awesome!”

Chi Shuyan was in awe of Wei Panyang’s ability to lie through his teeth.

In order to reduce the fear in Shi Ran’s eyes, Xiao Ningjin also echoed Wei Panyang. Shi Ran was skeptical, but at least his fluctuating emotions settled a little. He suddenly grabbed Xiao Ningjin’s hand. “Ningjin, is it true? Is it true?”

Xiao Ningjin immediately nodded.

The fear in Shi Ran’s eyes decreased slightly. He didn’t believe Wei Panyang, but he still trusted Xiao Ningjin very much. It was just that he still couldn’t believe that this young lady in front of him had really subdued that ghost thing.

There was a question in his eyes.

Chi Shuyan let him look at her calmly, and his complexion improved a little.

Xiao Ningjin suddenly thought of something and said, “By the way, Master Chi, you want us to go to Swan Lake with you in the afternoon. Shi Ran is still bedridden, though.”

As soon as Xiao Ningjin finished speaking, Shi Ran screamed in agitation. “You can’t go to Swan Lake, you can’t go! There’s a ghost, a ghost! I saw it with my own eyes!”

As he said the word “ghost,” he shrank back and screamed in horror, refusing to let them go to Swan Lake again.

Xiao Ningjin hurriedly said that Master Chi had already taken care of the ghost, so it was fine to go to Swan Lake.

Maybe it was because Shi Ran had been bitten once, so he was now twice shy, but when he heard the words “Swan Lake,” he was flustered and terrified. He kept shaking his head and repeatedly said that they couldn’t go there. He was completely beside himself when he heard the name.

Chi Shuyan was quite curious as to why Shi Ran had been able to see that ghost thing; she didn’t forget that the first person to sense that something was wrong had been Shi Ran.

How on earth had he known?

Perhaps the person in front of her had Yin Yang Eyes. There was a rare hint of interest in Chi Shuyan’s eyes as she looked at Shi Ran. At that moment, she said calmly, “It’s fine if one person doesn’t go. I have a way!”

While Xiao Ningjin and Wei Panyang wondered what method Master Chi was referring to, they saw her take out a talisman and fold it into a small paper man. She didn’t have a cinnabar pen in her pocket, so she simply drew with an ordinary pen infused with spiritual energy.

Then, Chi Shuyan indicated for Shi Ran to drip a few drops of blood on the talisman.

Seeing that he was still terrified and agitated, she simply helped him make the cut. Then, a few drops of bright red blood dripped onto the paper man. Only then did Shi Ran calm down a little, his expression startled.

Chi Shuyan didn’t pay attention to the others. She channeled her spiritual energy into the paper man. Then, everyone watched with round eyes as the paper man suddenly stood up, blinked at Chi Shuyan and said, “Hello, everyone, I’m Shi Ran!” It gave Shi Ran an intimate look, before it looked at the others curiously.

Shi Ran, Xiao Ningjin and Wei Panyang were given a fright at first, before they became excited. They froze in disbelief as they stared at the magical scene in front of them.

Wei Panyang was so shocked that he almost dropped the pear he had been eating.

Shi Ran stared at the paper man. Who knew if it was because he had dripped some blood on it earlier, but he felt close to this little paper man in front of him. He felt less afraid and looked at the young lady in front of him with more trust.

Wei Panyang looked at the paper man, who was still jumping around on the table, and was so shocked that he couldn’t even speak. He stuttered, “Master… Master Chi, what… what… what is this?”

Xiao Ningjin wasn’t any calmer than Wei Panyang. His lips trembled, and he couldn’t utter a word for a long time.

If Shi Ran hadn’t believed before that the young lady in front of him had subdued that ghost thing, he was now 80 to 90% convinced. His fear of Swan Lake also decreased a little. He bit his lip and didn’t say a word as he stared intently at the friendly little paper man in front of him.

Chi Shuyan stretched out her hand, and the little paper man jumped into her palm.

“Withdraw!”

Shi Ran, Wei Panyang and Xiao Ningjin saw the originally lively paper man fall motionless in Master Chi’s palm.

Chi Shuyan put the little paper man into her pocket.

The other three hadn’t had enough. Their eyes almost popped out of their sockets because of this paper man, and they looked at Master Chi with wide eyes.

In particular, Wei Panyang now felt that Master Chi was powerful no matter how he looked at her. She could simply be called a “living immortal.” Did she have to be so awesome? He had really been blind back then. He actually didn’t see at first glance that Master Chi was an extraordinary expert. What a shame!

Otherwise, he would have long befriended Master Chi and asked to be her disciple.

However, he had offended Master Chi too badly. Although Wei Panyang really wanted to be Master Chi’s disciple, he didn’t dare say anything.

Wei Panyang regretted it so much that his intestines turned green again. He had been blind back then.

Compared with Wei Panyang’s complicated feelings, Xiao Ningjin’s and Shi Ran’s were much simpler. The two were even more shocked, but didn’t think much of it. They looked at Master Chi in front of them with even more respect.

After this matter was completely resolved, the two of them had to treat Young Master Lu to a meal no matter what.

Without Young Master Lu, they would probably be dead now.

Chi Shuyan took in the boys’ admiration, awe and shock. She was amused. This little trick could only fool ordinary people. Those who were in the business would know that it was nothing much.

Chi Shuyan put the little paper man into her pocket, narrowed her eyes, and looked at Shi Ran curiously. “Can I ask you something? Of course, you can choose not to answer! I’m just curious!”

After a pause, Chi Shuyan asked bluntly, “How did you know something was wrong with Fang Yinglong back then?”

As soon as Chi Shuyan said that, the others were also curious.

Shi Ran was most likely an ordinary person like them, but how had he known that there was something wrong with Fang Yinglong?

Thinking of how he had seen that ghost thing on Fang Yinglong’s back, Shi Ran shuddered and gritted his teeth. “I saw it with my own eyes!”

Chi Shuyan had expected that answer. It also proved that Shi Ran might have accidentally opened his Yin Yang Eyes, which was why he was able to see that thing.

But Wei Panyang and Xiao Ningjin were dumbfounded at Shi Ran’s words. Wei Panyang even cursed in excitement. “Holy sh*t! Holy sh*t! Shi Ran, you’re f*cking awesome!”

The way Xiao Ningjin looked at Shi Ran immediately changed.
