Chapter 182 Sir, shall we go back to our room now?
"Lu Xiang!"
Li Ye reacted quickly, grabbing Lu Xiang's arm and pulling her back.
At the same time, the talisman fire, which had only been wrapped around the arm, suddenly twisted.
"Ah!" A scream suddenly rang out in the night sky.
Then this arm turned to ashes and vanished into thin air.
But it was too late; the ghostly energy had already entered Lu Xiang's chest.
With just a gentle twist of her heart, she would surely die.
Even Li Ye's expression changed drastically. Tang Xi stared blankly at the scene, her eyes quickly reddening and tears welling up.
"I told you, I have no manners and I like to hit women."
Si Xingran and Yu Cinian, who arrived later, only had time to see the woman who should have fainted jump up like a zombie and forcefully push Lu Xiang out of the barrier.
Si Xingran grabbed Aunt Tian's collar and, gritting his teeth, punched her hard in the stomach.
"Pfft!" Tian's sister-in-law, not knowing where she got the strength from, spat out a mouthful of blood and completely fainted.
Enraged, Si Xing threw her aside and yelled at Lu Xiang, "You think you're so tough? You can't even dodge this?!"
"Ha, Si Xingran, I'm about to die and you're still arguing with me?" Lu Xiang gave a bitter laugh, feeling a burning pain in her chest.
She thought she was probably going to die.
But she didn't even get to see Sui Sui one last time.
Sui Sui had just promised to make her a sleep-inducing aromatherapy diffuser for life, but now she won't need it anymore.
I'm so unwilling to accept this.
When Lin Sui arrived, she was met with a desolate and bleak atmosphere.
She tilted her head, puzzled. "What's wrong?"
Everyone turned their faces away, not daring to look at her.
Yu Cinian looked at her, hesitant to speak, unsure whether he should tell her or not.
He belatedly realized that this was probably the kind of dilemma one would feel if they cared about someone.
In particular, he clearly saw that Lin Sui's face was abnormally pale.
Tangxi also noticed, so she couldn't bring herself to ask Lin Sui to save Lu Xiang.
She thought that Sui Sui must be even more upset than she was right now.
No one spoke, so Lin Sui walked towards Lu Xiang on her own.
Lu Xiang was staring at her intently, his gaze greedily tracing every inch of her skin, as if he wanted to etch that face into his heart until the day he died.
Lin Sui stood motionless in front of her, letting her look at him.
A minute passed.
Lu Xiang stared at Lin Sui.
Lin Sui remained unmoved.
Everyone was at a loss.
Five minutes passed.
Lu Xiang blinked blankly, her eyes starting to ache from staring for too long.
Lin Sui's expression remained calm.
Everyone was silent.
Ten minutes passed.
Tangxi's eyes were no longer red, while the others remained expressionless.
Under Lin Sui's calm gaze, Lu Xiang felt a rare moment of embarrassment and lowered her head.
Lin Sui sighed and reached out to untie the bow tie of her JK uniform.
"Ouch!" Lu Xiang exclaimed in alarm, grabbing Lin Sui's hand as if she had been teased. "Why are you being so indecent?"
She glanced at her shyly and said sweetly, "No matter how urgent it is, we have to wait until tonight. It's not like I'm being unreasonable."
Lin Sui: "...It's evening now."
"Oh, is that so?" Lu Xiang raised an eyebrow, exuding charm, and said, "Then, my lord, shall we go back to our room now?"
"..." Lin Sui was truly helpless. "Alright, stop fooling around. Let me see your talisman."
Lu Xiang was taken aback.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Lin Sui untied her bow tie and pulled a red string from under her collar.
The amulet tied to the bottom of the red rope had long since turned into a handful of black ash.
Lin Sui subconsciously tightened his grip on the rope.
She closed her eyes, her throat felt choked, and a bitter, indescribable feeling welled up inside her.
fortunately.
fortunately.
Fortunately, Lu Xiang always cherished what she gave her. As early as after returning from the first episode, she tied a talisman with a red string and wore it around her neck.
Lin Sui was well aware of this, which is why he felt comfortable letting them participate in breaking the formation.
But that doesn't mean she isn't worried.
When she discovered that the silencing spell she had placed on Sister Tian had been forcibly lifted.
When she discovered that someone had left the protective barrier she had set up—she certainly wasn't foolish enough to assume they had left on their own.
Then they can only be pushed out.
So Lin Sui, who is always slow, came running.
Only when she saw that all five of them were standing there safely did she retreat to the wall and silently swallow a pill.
At that moment, she felt only gratitude.
The evil gods are not powerful enough to break free of their limitations and kill them directly.
His power comes from the resentment of vengeful spirits, and he feeds on the resentment of ghosts and monsters.
He especially liked it after it became a demon.
Therefore, this Yin-gathering and ghost-nurturing formation had to be broken.
Lin Sui thought for a moment, then took out another amulet and slowly tied it to Lu Xiang's red string.
While Lin Sui was doing these things, Lu Xiang watched her quietly, remaining silent for a long time.
After tying the amulet on, Lin Sui opened his palm, and the copper coins scattered in all directions automatically returned to him.
Other body parts that were entangled in the talisman fire also flew over.
They coalesced outside the barrier, transforming into a figure in red.
It was Zou Yiming.
He appeared last night with all his limbs intact, but now he only has one arm left.
He glared venomously at Lin Sui: "You actually ruined my arm...you actually ruined my arm!"
"So what if I kill you, just because you dared to kill Lu Xiang?" Lin Sui's tone was icy, and his brows were filled with murderous intent.
Perhaps her appearance was too frightening, for Zou Yiming dared not utter a sound for a moment.
Lin Sui added, "Besides, you've already missed your chance to be reincarnated, so what difference does it make whether you have this arm or not?"
There's a reason why many people fear dying without a complete corpse.
Because their incomplete bodies could potentially cause them to be born with a congenital disability after being reborn as humans.
Of course, those who have made contributions, such as those who died on the battlefield defending their country, have no need to worry about this issue at all.
"Why do you say he has no chance?" Si Xingran asked, cracking open a pistachio.
He was tired and desperately needed to eat something to replenish his energy.
Tangxi saw him eating heartily, and with a serious little face, she reached out her hand to him.
Si Xingran initially didn't want to give it to her, but then she remembered that Si Xingran knew how to lift weights, so she reluctantly shared some with her.
As a result, the little potato turned around and gave it to Li Ye, and then reached out to him.
Si Xingran had no choice but to grab another handful for her, then tightly clutched the last bit left in her pocket: "It's all gone, really all gone."
"mean!"
Tangxi muttered to herself, but didn't ask him for more. Instead, she shared the handful with Lin Sui and Lu Xiang.
Just as Li Ye, who had been hoarding a piece, was wondering whether he should share some, he saw Yu Cinian smiling at him... the pistachio in his hand.
Li Ye: "...You're not a germaphobe?"
Yu Cinian continued to smile at him without saying a word.
Li Ye's brow twitched, and he tentatively handed over half of it.
"Thank you." Yu Cinian reached out and took it, then stopped looking at him.
Li Ye: "..."
Seeing these people happily eating pistachios, Zou Yiming's face twisted in disgust.
These people really don't take him seriously.
He's a vengeful ghost!
Unfortunately, the talisman fire bound him, rendering him unable to move. Zou Yiming could only continue glaring at Lin Sui and asking, "Why do you say I can't be reincarnated?"
Lin Sui peeled a pistachio and slowly retorted, "Why should I? Don't you know why?"
She lifted her long, raven-feather-like eyelashes, her eyes deep and unfathomable: "Do I need to tell you exactly how your father died?"
At this moment, Xu Haize's team also gathered around.
Upon hearing Lin Sui's words, An Yiming's eyes turned wary: "His father said it himself, that he accidentally discovered that his wife was having an affair with a doctor, and in a fit of anger, he locked her at home, wanting to give her a chance to reflect and admit her mistake."
"As a result, she not only refused to admit her mistake, but also dismembered him. He was so resentful that he specifically targeted women who had cheated on him after he died."
"And before he died, he witnessed his son being slit in the bathtub."
As he spoke, he questioned Lin Sui: "The truth is crystal clear. What do you mean by saying this now? Are you going to distort the facts just to win... Hiss!"
Before he could finish speaking, a pistachio, like a pea shooter from Plants vs. Zombies, was fired from Si Xingran's mouth and hit him squarely on the forehead.
An Yiming covered his forehead and glared angrily: "What are you doing?!"
"It's nothing." Si Xingran withdrew her pouting lips and said lazily, "I just suddenly saw a brainless zombie, which was quite rare, and my DNA couldn't help but move."
Those who say he got into Peking University based on his own merit are brainless?
An Yiming laughed angrily: "What, you can't stand losing because I hit the nail on the head, and you're trying to distort the truth, so you've lost your temper?"
"You're the one who broke down?" Lin Sui glanced at him lightly. "If you think what you believe is the truth, then just wait patiently."
"Why are you in such a hurry to jump out? What are you afraid of? Are you afraid that if you don't get the prize money, you won't have the money to bribe the professor to give you a government-funded study abroad spot?"
Upon hearing this, An Yiming's expression suddenly changed.
"Master Lin, tell me, how exactly did Zou Qiang die?"
Tan Huizhen was also very concerned about the reward money, so she was somewhat indignant: "Didn't they say that the police found Hu Liyun's fingerprints on the murder weapon? If she didn't kill him, then who else could it be?"
At this point, she subconsciously glanced at Zou Yiming: "If it really was done by a ghost, there would be no need for a murder weapon, especially since he is his biological father."
In her mind, a son who beats his father deserves to be struck by lightning.
What's more, killing?
"That's why Miss Lin said he has no chance of being reincarnated." Mao Yang also walked over, his expression serious.
The furry creature followed behind him dejectedly, not daring to lift its head.
"There are two kinds of people who cannot be reincarnated. One is those who are extremely wicked and must go to the eighteenth level of hell and never be reincarnated."
Mao Yang explained, "There is another one, which is patricide and matricide. This is a crime against human ethics, which is unforgivable and will also send you to hell."
"Furthermore, children are brought into this world by their parents, and their parents' blood flows in their veins."
“If a child is willing to risk his parents’ lives to kill them, he will be judged as unwilling to come into this world, and naturally he will not be given the chance to be reincarnated.”
Fang Lu, who was hiding behind An Yiming, trembled upon hearing this.
Lin Sui, who had just witnessed this scene, ignored her for the time being and looked at Zou Yiming: "You didn't dare to resist when you were alive, and you only dared to use your mother's hand when you died. Now you don't even have the courage to admit it?"
"Who said I didn't!" Zou Yiming's eyes instantly turned bloodshot. "Yes, I killed that man. I killed him after I died, by possessing that woman's body!"
"While he was conscious, I made him watch as I sliced off pieces of his flesh, one by one. It felt so good to dismember him myself."
"His blood sprayed onto me, and it was warm! Hahahaha... It's so funny, someone like him, his blood is warm! Hahahaha..."
Zou Yiming laughed maniacally, his ghostly aura surging as he tried to break free from the shackles of the talisman fire.
Upon seeing this, everyone, both on and off screen, was shocked.
[Oh my god, it really was him who killed him. How could he be so heartless?]
This must be the blessing of having sons; they deserve it.
[Yes, raising children to provide for old age is indeed a good way to do it; once they die, they stop getting old, right?]
[The person upstairs doesn't need to be so harsh. If his mother wasn't a terrible person, would he have been driven insane?]
That's his mother's problem, what does it have to do with his father?
So, yes, his mother was treated as a murderer and locked up in a mental hospital. She wasn't much better off than his father, was she?
Tan Huizhen and Li Jianping, both parents, were devastated.
"No matter what, they are still your parents. They raised you with so much hardship, and instead of being grateful, you killed him in such a cruel way. You are such a scoundrel!"
"They're worse than animals."
"Who can argue with that? His mother risked her life to give birth to him, and in the end, she was framed as a murderer by her son. What a misfortune for the family."
The two spoke in unison, their voices filled with indignation and resentment.
Hearing this, Zou Yiming's expression turned ferocious, his hatred intensifying: "What do you know? What do you understand? That's their retribution, they deserved it!"
If he had a choice, he would rather not have been born.
From the time he could speak, his mother forced him to memorize ancient poems, simply because his father hoped that he could learn 300 Tang poems by the age of two.
After he was able to walk, his mother forced him to sit on the piano bench and practice all day long.
Just because my father said he liked it and wanted to hear it.
His mother couldn't accept even the slightest failure from him; if he didn't reach his goals, she would go crazy and make a scene.
He was terrified, but dared not even cry, because his father disliked it. He could only obediently comply, which only resulted in his mother tormenting him even more severely.
From childhood to adulthood, apart from going to school, he rarely went out. He had no entertainment and no friends.
Even when he was at school, his mother didn't give him a moment's respite, always coming to the school to keep an eye on him, causing him to be ridiculed by his classmates.
He did nothing but study every day, which made him doubt whether he was even human.
He was like a prisoner with no days left, locked in that dark and gloomy study. Even though he studied desperately and tried his best to meet his parents' expectations, he still couldn't get a pardon or a reduced sentence.
They barely get any sleep.
As a result, even when he was very tired or sleepy, he found it difficult to fall asleep.
He didn't even dare to take sleeping pills because he was afraid he wouldn't be able to get up at four o'clock, and if he did, he would definitely be punished by his mother with a bucket of ice water.
Even if he gets sick because of this, and is so sick that he has to go to the hospital, he still has to bring a backpack full of exercise books with him.
The nurse couldn't stand it anymore and said a few words, but the mother still argued, "I'm doing this for his own good!"
Zou Yiming sneered: "What do you mean by doing this for my own good? She's clearly doing it for herself, for her own wealth and status!"
"But you may not be unaware of why your mother is like this."
Lin Sui said calmly, "Otherwise, you wouldn't have only killed your father but spared her, would you?"
