Chapter 358: Thick Cadaveric Qi
Chi Shuyan stayed in the hospital for two hours and became quite familiar with the little guy, Zhang Xiaoyang. He was quite reserved earlier, but was now chatting happily with her.
It was all about his hobbies. After he was done talking, the little guy asked in a childish voice, “Sister Chi, what do you like most?”
As Chi Shuyan answered the little guy, she saw that as time passed, the black qi on the forehead of Counselor Zhang’s wife, Teacher Huang, grew thicker and thicker.
She guessed that something would happen tonight.
But she was quite puzzled. Although the Protection and Safety Talisman she had given them might not be able to save Counselor Zhang’s family, it hadn’t devolved to the worst-case scenario, so she could still help resolve the danger and find a way out.
As long as Counselor Zhang’s family carried the Protection and Safety Talismans, it wouldn’t be a disaster, but at least the situation wouldn’t worsen. Now, except for the little guy, the situation with Counselor Zhang’s family was getting worse and still on track toward a disaster.
Chi Shuyan narrowed her eyes and pondered what went wrong.
At that moment, Zhang Xiaoyang suddenly said in Chi Shuyan’s ear, “Sister Chi, I’ll show you something especially beautiful!”
With that, Zhang Xiaoyang took out a talisman from around his neck. Chi Shuyan could tell at a glance that it was her talisman. Zhang Xiaoyang said excitedly, “Sister Chi, is it beautiful? My father gave it to me. My mother said that I won’t fall and hurt myself in the future if I have this!”
Chi Shuyan’s lips curved up. She stuffed the talisman back around the little guy’s neck and told him to always carry it on him.
Zhang Xiaoyang nodded. “My mother said the same thing, but Sister Chi, do you want it? I’ll give it to you!”
Zhang Xiaoyang felt that this sister was especially beautiful. He especially liked her and her smell.
Chi Shuyan wasn’t surprised that the child liked her. Ever since she started practicing the Mystic Yin Arts, she realized that not only was she loved by all kinds of animals, children loved her too. Of course, she hadn’t seen many children before, and it was only when she met Zhang Xiaoyang that she was sure.
When Chi Shuyan heard the little guy’s words, she stroked his little head and said, “Yangyang has one, and so do I! Don’t give this thing to anyone in the future.”
With that, Chi Shuyan took out a Safety Talisman and showed it to the little guy, who exclaimed, “Sister Chi, we’re really fated! I’ll listen to Sister Chi!”
On the side, Counselor Zhang’s wife was very happy when she saw how her husband’s student and her son got along. When Chi Shuyan was about to leave, Teacher Huang was a little reluctant to see her go.
When she sent Chi Shuyan out, Teacher Huang looked at her son’s reluctant expression, and couldn’t help but ask Chi Shuyan to come over to their place next time to try her cooking, and she didn’t need to bring anything with her.
Chi Shuyan smiled. “Okay, ma’am!” Before she left, Chi Shuyan said off-handedly, “Ma’am, do you have the exact same talisman as the one around Yangyang’s neck? Can I have a look?”
Chi Shuyan’s excuse was too lame. Fortunately, Counselor Zhang’s wife didn’t think much of it and didn’t mind. She smiled gently and said, “I did, but I accidentally lost it when I was out! I plan to get another one in the next few days! It might be superstitious of me, but it gives me peace of mind!”
Chi Shuyan nodded in agreement with Counselor Zhang’s wife.
After she returned to the university, Chi Shuyan had just stepped into the dorm, when Yang Lan said to Chi Shuyan, “Shuyan, did you know? That woman, Tang Ningbao, reported to Director Huang this morning that Counselor Zhang is feudalistic and superstitious! Say, how well does Counselor Zhang treat us normally? What does it have to do with Tang Ningbao if he carries a talisman on him?”
Yang Lan was very gossipy to begin with, and when she came back from the police station in the afternoon, she heard about this from someone else.
This matter had caused quite a stir. In fact, it was quite normal to believe in Buddhism and carry talismans. Ordinary people had their beliefs, but the university’s Director Huang hated feudal superstitions in particular, so Counselor Zhang was quite unlucky!
