Prologue The First Arrival Chapter 33 Soul Crushing Card
I felt the necklace on my chest, but I no longer had the feeling of being torn apart just now, and the original strange power in my body was gone, as if it had never existed between heaven and earth, so that Chai Xu even felt that it was not his own illusion.
Suddenly remembering something, Chai Xu blurted out and asked.
"I said, what's the taboo about this chain, can I bring it into the toilet?"
Chang Ziming showed a look of disgust.
"Tut-tut, also literate people, college students, can you not mention the toilet at the dinner table, who can still eat, but don't worry, this chain, as you toss. β
Thinking that Chang Ziming was still talking to himself about going to the toilet at the dinner table yesterday, Fu Lingxue glanced at him angrily, but Chang Ziming didn't see it, and he continued to explain.
"This is a meeting gift I gave you, hey, look at my brain, I forgot to say, you do things for me, don't advocate with others, I believe you also heard your colleagues, as well as those neighbors outside, it seems that there is a misunderstanding of my small shop, in fact, there is no one who cares more about them than me, but unfortunately this person, he likes to see some one-sided things, how, Officer Chai, how are you thinking about it? Are you willing to become my agent?"
Chai Xu scratched his head and tried to sort out his thoughts, he felt that he had been brought into some kind of pit, but as Chang Ziming said, many things in this world are not a coincidence, besides, Chang Ziming promised to give himself great benefits.
Thinking of his uncle and cousin who were still far away in the capital, Chai Xu felt guilty from the bottom of his heart, although being a police officer was a thankless job, but it would not be so high.
Thinking of the double blow of career and life, Chai Xu began to seriously consider Chang Ziming's words.
"What can I do if I encounter those things, and I can show my police ID and let them follow me?"
Hearing Chai Xu's intention, Chang Ziming immediately got up and rummaged through the shelves around him, making dust flying all over the sky, Fu Lingxue directly moved the induction cooker and hid behind the counter, and said dissatisfied.
"You're not going to be ready in advance?"
Chang Ziming almost stepped on the second layer of the shelf, and finally got something at the top of the fourth layer, he took it off and blew it, and it was even more dusty, and Chai Xu couldn't bear to look at it directly.
Finally, he smiled and handed the things in his hand to Chai Xu.
"I'm sorry, it's been so long since I've had a new joining, I've almost forgotten where I put this thing, come on, take this. β
Although Chai Xu was extremely disgusted, he still held it in his hand, and when he opened it, it was actually a silver brand, diamond-shaped, which looked very small, and the middle of the brand was engraved with a small seal with the word "Yuan".
"Is this...?"
"This brand is also called'Soul Pressing Card', it's worthless, it's a proof that you're doing things for me, alas, although it's not valuable, but don't underestimate him, if this ordinary mountain wilderness soul sees this brand, you have to kneel down and beg for mercy in fright, I pondered, the grade of these desolate souls is not high, you take this brand to threaten it, and then put it in it, and then bring it back to me, just do it." β
Chai Xu wiped the remaining dust on the brand again, at this time, Fu Lingxue's eyes showed a trace of puzzlement, but before she could speak, she saw Chang Ziming, who was facing away from her, hooked his finger backwards, and suddenly, she felt as if her throat was blocked by something, and she couldn't say a word.
She was a little angry, but she didn't say anything, just put the induction cooker on the counter and continued to eat, this girl seemed to never be able to eat, but her body was so delicate and slender, it seemed that the wind could break it, and the law of conservation of energy seemed to be nothing in her body.
β... I said, "Boss, are you really going to give me money?" You're not going to be a liar, are you?"
Tsuneko understood him, and said angrily.
"Do I look like a liar? Is it a fake that I saved your life yesterday? Joke, as long as you and I can reach a long-term relationship, I guarantee you to eat and drink spicy, rest assured, this is a profitable deal, but..."
Chang Ziming's eyes suddenly became solemn again, and he looked at Chai Xu, as if he wanted to confirm something.
β... Do you love money, which is important to you?"
Chai Xu put the brand into his clothes pocket and said after a moment of silence.
"I promised to help you, but just this time, there is no one in this world who does not love money. β
He didn't tell his uncle's situation and Chang Ziming, his uncle's situation, if there was no accident, he could barely get by, but now...
His uncle suffered from a strange blood disease, and in order to treat it, he almost spent all the family's savings, and in order to allow his daughter to go to college, he had quietly begun to take conservative treatment, which only Chai Xu knew, and his uncle asked him not to tell his sister, and he agreed.
But he also made up his mind deep down that he must share the difficulties of life for his uncle, and at this moment, if this matter can really make him earn so much money, then the situation of his uncle's family will definitely be redeemed.
So, this is the first time and the last time to make a deal with Chang Ziming.
Because in Chai Xu's heart, Chang Ziming is not like a fairy in a story, but like a demon in a fable who leads people astray and finally destroys himself.
If Chang Ziming could hear Chai Xu's inner thoughts at this time, he would definitely scold this little rabbit cub angrily while slapping the table, and he was really kind to treat it as a donkey's liver and lungs.
seems to have guessed that Chai Xu had something unspeakable, Chang Ziming didn't say anything, what should be explained, he has roughly explained, and he didn't say anything to Chai Xu's "just this once".
Because he understands that as long as this thing is done, there will be no last time, because it is like a puddle of mud, stuck in it and only gradually sinking, wanting to jump out?
It's hard.
After Chai Xu left, Chang Ziming untied the curse mark on Fu Lingxue's body, and the girl could speak again, and the first sentence was to ask.
"You're so irresponsible, you're lying to him about almost every word. β
Chang Ziming smiled, sat back at the counter, and said happily as he looked at the girl who was serving the bowl.
"Girl, you have to speak with your conscience, what did I lie to him, tell me, did the soul in this soul-nourishing porcelain run out and kill so many people?"
Ling Xue thought for a moment and nodded.
"Then let me ask you again, am I trapped in this C City, and I can't reach out with my hands?"
The girl nodded again, but shook her head suddenly.
"No, no, you haven't told the truth since here, although you can't take care of these souls, but obviously someone can replace them, why do you want to let an ordinary human take risks, even if you have a soul pressure card, you may not be able to get out of the way when dealing with these yin things. β
Chang Ziming stretched out his hand, looked at the girl a little inexplicably and asked.
"Tell me, who else can go?"
"Can't you just wait for them to come back?"
Chang Ziming shook his head and said earnestly.
"Those few melon goods, I encountered a little trouble outside, just called me, they are in the field, each of them stabbed a hornet's nest, and they can't come back in the short term, but I don't worry about a few of them, how to work hard for me Chang Ziming without any ability, but you, it's useless, you can't even live when you get out of this C city, alas, otherwise I wouldn't be looking for him." β
The girl said with some unconvinced.
"Then why does it have to be him? Just because he was born to see those things? No... It's really strange to know this, I've never seen an ordinary human who is born to see souls, and I happened to meet you, Ah Chang, what a coincidence. β
Chang Ziming smiled indifferently, looked at the corner of another brand exposed on the shelf, and suddenly a trace of melancholy flashed on his face, he let out a long sigh, and there seemed to be some sadness in his voice.
"In this world, where did it come from... Eh, how many times has Lao Tzu told you, you have to call me Boss Chang, I am your boss, no matter how bad it is, you have to call me Master, Lao Chang is your name??"
The girl bowed her head to eat and was silent.
And the diamond-shaped soul card printed with the word "wind" on the shelf was full of dust, motionless, lying quietly on the top of the shelf.

Chai Xu, who returned home, frowned, looking at the spotless room that had been cleaned up and the fragrant meals on the table, he was a little speechless, so he turned his puzzled eyes to the two figures standing at the table.
One of them, a white-dressed, pretty long-haired girl smiled slightly, and immediately lowered her head as if she was frightened after discovering that Chai Xu's face was wrong.
Fluttershy, the other girl who looks like a little girl but doesn't know how old she is, smiles happily.
β... Didn't I tell you not to stay with me?"
Chai Xu carefully bypassed the two of them, hung up his coat and then carefully moved to the door, he had to keep the best way to escape at all times.
β... The slave family's soul mirror was broken by the adults of the Chang family last night, and it was about to be scattered, but the master of the Chang family temporarily replenished the Horcrux for me, this house... It's my temporary place to send my soul, if I walk out of this room, not to mention whether my soul will be gone, then the thief who coerced me to kill my son will immediately crush my soul... Childe is gracious, the slave family will definitely not be an eyesore, and I beg Childe to allow me to stay in this house temporarily. β
Fluttershy says with some confidence.
β... You, you and I have an agreement, brother, I won't leave until you help me fulfill my wish, besides... I kind of saved you last night... If I hadn't told you the exercises for the restoration of ancient coins, you wouldn't have been able to insist that Sister Chang came here to save you. β
Chai Xu sighed, the two of them seemed to be affectionate and reasonable, one was pitiful and had nowhere to go, and the other owed her a favor, thinking that Fluttershy was desperate to hold the white-clothed ghost in spite of herself, and felt some pity in her heart.
But he suddenly remembered again... That night, when Fu Lingxue gave himself an ancient coin for the first time, he also gave himself a piece of the evil Buddha card... It seems to say that this brand can make the little girl's soul completely dissipate, and she will never be able to be reborn...
The reason is because this little girl seems to be assassinating herself when she fulfills her wish...
Thinking of this, Chai Xu suddenly swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
Looking at the two souls in front of him, he sighed silently, put his hand into his pocket, clenched the piece of soul pressing card that symbolized doing things for the Chang family, and made a silent decision in his heart.
