Name:The Wife of a Ghost Author:
Uncle Shen's gaze towards me was filled with reverence, making me unaccustomed to it. I couldn't help but look away. "That … Uncle Shen, even if my blood has that ability, it should be because I'm pregnant …"

"There's no need to say anymore. Yan Nuo, since you have already recovered, you should continue practicing the sealing technique. Today is already the third day. There's not much time left in the seven days you mentioned earlier."

Uncle Shen suddenly brought the topic back on track. I was shocked and cursed myself for being careless and almost forgot the time.

I am now able to recite the incantation and fully grasp its meaning. Although my movements are a bit unfamiliar, but I must have had some effect during last night's practice, so I plan to finish learning everything I didn't learn today and then return tomorrow morning.

However, there was a saying that goes: plans cannot keep up with change, much less special changes.

At this moment, I was in the courtyard practicing the art of sealing. After disappearing for two days, Little Han, who should have turned into a Blood Corpse, and the Skinner Butcher unexpectedly walked in from outside with their arms around each other's shoulders.

The moment my eyes landed on Little Han, the images of him being trampled to death came back to me, the eyeballs popping out of his eye sockets and the flesh that had sprayed all over my face. Sensory memories welled up in my head.

My whole body was instantly drenched in cold sweat.

"Yo, boss, are you busy?" Little Han actually greeted Uncle Shen in a very natural manner. Her movements were smooth, and it was impossible to tell that she was a dead person.

At this moment, I was already blocked by Uncle Shen behind me. Little Han's figure was a little indiscernible, so she stealthily stuck her head out behind Uncle Shen to see what he looked like.

However, just as my gaze landed on him, he naturally took off his shirt as if it was extremely hot. I looked up and saw his collarbone.

As expected, a cat head had already sunk into his bones.

I gasped, and my body began to tremble.

"Boss, where's my girlfriend?" Little Han was still talking to Uncle Shen when I suddenly remembered that I hadn't seen Little Juan since I saw her yesterday and Auntie Shen as well.

"Little Juan has already left. You all don't need to look for her anymore."

Uncle Shen said in a deep voice. His hand that was always behind his back had already formed a seal before my eyes. He held the peach wood sword tightly in his hand.

"He left? Why did he leave? How could my girlfriend leave me behind? Boss, are you lying to me? Or did you hide her? "

In the hot summer, he had already taken off his shirt. As he walked a short distance away, a strong stench of rot came from all directions, making my vision blur. It was as if I could see countless flies circling around his body, as well as a large number of fat maggots lying on his body.

Just as my vision cleared, Uncle Shen suddenly unsheathed his peach wood sword and thrusted it forward. Little Han, who had just reached me, was unable to dodge, and was immediately struck squarely in the face. It was as if the peach wood sword had placed a bomb on her, causing her to explode on the spot.

The minced meat that filled the sky fell like a rain of blood, instantly turning the entire courtyard into a small field of Shura.

It was fortunate that I had been standing behind Uncle Chen the entire time. He had already set up a small barrier around me, preventing the "bloody rain" from landing on my body.

The butcher, who had been standing behind Little Han without a word, looked at the name that he had registered in his room — Tong Zhan. At this moment, he finally opened his mouth, "Old thing, your methods aren't bad!"

Uncle Shen straightened his back and replied, "Against evil spirits, it's like this all the time."

If this had been on the screen, with me as an audience, I would have been so excited that I would have covered my eyes and left a slit between my fingers to finish watching the movie.

But that is not the case. I am a participant in this war!

Tong Zhan grabbed Little Han's flesh and placed it into his mouth to suck, "Old thing, don't meddle in other people's business. I want that woman, tell me where she is!"

"Depends on your own ability."

Just as Uncle Shen finished speaking, my vision blurred, and not far away, Tong Zhan and Uncle Shen started to fight nervously.

He saw that the two of them were attacking each other's weak points, but were unable to break through due to a moment of anxiety.

At this moment, I was standing on one side, feeling extremely anxious. There was absolutely nothing that could be of use to me.

"Seal Array!" Just as I was sweating profusely from anxiety, Uncle Shen suddenly shouted.

The confusion in my head was like a twine that had been found, and it was quick and direct to find what I was supposed to do.

Sometimes I really hate my poor sense and reflexes when I'm in trouble! If I could be smarter and more predictable, would I be able to stop making others feel confused and anxious because of me?

I quickly set up the array and the peach wood sword in my hand flew up and down. The incantation that was already imprinted in my mind recited word by word along with my actions.

I had just learned how to move last night, and this is the first time I have used this kind of combination of movement and chant.

The candles and the yellow paper had been placed on the stone table since morning. Although it wasn't as easy as staying in a place with dense yin energy like the one in the cove, I felt that as long as I could calm Tong Zhan down for a while, it would be alright.

I closed my eyes and tried my best to calm my heart. I ignored the two people who were fighting in front of me, so that I could use my utmost concentration to deal with all of this.

The clouds in the sky have quickly gathered together, and the yellow paper's circle to hexagram has also appeared in the sky. Just as I was about to begin the next step of sealing, Auntie Shen's room suddenly moved. A woman's figure suddenly appeared in the courtyard.

Why is Little Juan there?

Startled, I made a mistake in my movements. However, I quickly controlled my emotions.

Uncle Shen was extremely angry. He swung the peach wood sword and was prepared to cut both her and Tong Zhan to pieces. Of course, if Auntie Shen hadn't rushed out to protect her, she would have done the same thing …

Auntie Shen had been following Uncle Shen for so many years. She was well aware of the personality of her man. This Little Juan had crawled out from her confinement to disrupt his plans to catch ghosts. According to Uncle Shen's temper, he would definitely not stop his actions just because of her.

Skinner was a ghost. He deserved to die, but this girl was still young. She didn't deserve to die.

Thus, Auntie Shen carried Little Juan into the room and dragged her along. However, when Little Juan saw Tong Zhan, it was as if she saw a murderer. She did not listen to Auntie Shen's persuasion at all.

I was terrified that the seal would affect the two of them, so I didn't dare to do anything to them. Uncle Shen was obviously flustered and exasperated. When he fought against Tong, he was always timid.

"Seal!" Uncle Shen suddenly let out an angry roar. I was startled. My hands stiffened and a gap appeared in the seal.

Tong Zhan, who had been stiff and dispirited under the sealing spell, found an opening in the next instant and charged towards Little Juan with a screech.

"No!" She actually hugged Little Juan and turned around, putting her behind him. He saw Tong Zhan wave a hand that had been chopped into a bone by a peach wood sword and suddenly stab into Auntie Shen's back. When he retracted his hand, he was tightly grabbing onto a struggling heart.

Uncle Shen's eyes immediately turned blood-red, and his peach wood sword became even colder. He actually chopped off Tong Zhan's hand that was grabbing his heart before he could even stuff his heart into his mouth, catching his already weak beating heart.

At this moment, Tong Zhan made a beak that cut off its tail and quickly disappeared.

I don't even have the strength to maintain the formation! Although the peach wood sword was in his hand, his heart was already in his throat.

"Auntie Shen!" I pushed Little Juan, who had fainted in Aunt Shen's arms, away and hugged the breathless Aunt Shen. Uncle Shen, on the other hand, quickly stepped on his disjointed prosthesis and returned to his room to call the ambulance.

Humans were like this. Sometimes, they could take down demons and exterminate demons, but sometimes, they were also helpless and anxious.

Just like Uncle Shen, who everyone thought was an expert in cultivation.

Fortunately, the nearest ambulance station was not far from this small farmhouse. In just a few minutes, the shrill siren of the ambulance could be heard from afar.

While I was waiting, I felt as if a seed, or rather, a seed of reason, had sunk into the depths of my heart and quickly taken root.

If I hadn't been emotional and merciless and sealed off that barrier, would the two outsiders only have been slightly injured, but not have been so life-threatening?

I always think about the big picture and don't let anyone take any damage, but how can there be such a cheap thing in this world. Besides, my ability is not enough to "demand" justice from this world.

Looking at the bigger picture and looking at everyone else, my strength isn't enough. Furthermore, my heart is truly too emotional. This isn't a good thing for me.

I watched Auntie Shen's face gradually turn pale as she was escorted into the ambulance. Then, I turned around to look at the unconscious Little Juan. The disgust in my heart was practically bursting out.

But I also know that my mood is just a matter of venting my anger.

After thinking about it carefully, compared to this lady who had already fainted, the panicked me really looked as though I was in an even more sorry state.
