CH 108

The owner of the funeral parlour refused, “I taught your apprentice to be psychic, he is not my disciple yet, I won’t do it.”

Feng Li lifted his eyes from the bowl of tea, “If you don’t want to, then wait until the ‘psychic arts’ go out of existence.”

The undertaker did not speak for a long time and suddenly sighed, “Why did you say he was fit for a seance?”

“He has no yin in his eight characters, yet he attracts yin,” Feng Li said, “He has both yin and yang in his body, yet he has the right blend. Don’t you see that he has such a special constitution?”

The funeral shop owner said slowly, “My eyesight has never been as good as yours, not to mention the fact that I have only met your disciple a few times. It’s only natural that I can’t see it.”

Jiang Luo couldn’t help but give the funeral shop owner a deep look.

The funeral shop owner was completely full of shit.

When he tried to open the Yin-Yang Ring, the funeral shop owner himself said to him, “Your body has the energy of death and your soul has the energy of yang, a rare blend of yin and yang”. These two statements are much more elaborate than Feng Li’s.

He had clearly seen Jiang Luo’s physique was special, so why was he lying to Feng Li at this moment?

Was he not afraid that Jiang Luo would expose him?

The undertaker did not move under Jiang Luo’s gaze. Jiang Luo withdrew his eyes and did not poke holes in the undertaker’s lies, but listened quietly to the conversation.

Feng Li said, “All you have to do is take him for a walk around the hospital cemetery and you’ll see. Such a talent would be wasted if he didn’t learn ‘psychic’, Ji Harrier, will you teach him?”

The funeral shop owner played it off without panic, “It’s not something I can teach just because I say I can, I’ll decide after I’ve seen what he can do.”

Feng Li is not in a hurry as he nods slightly and sets down his tea bowl.

The undertaker looked at Jiang Luo again, “Do you know what ‘psychic magic’ is?”

Jiang Luo said, “I don’t know.”

The funeral shop owner said, “Then you understand understand.”

“……” Jiang Luo raised a kind smile, “Psychic, supposed to be dealing with the dead?”

He thought of the black aura of the boss’s wife that he had touched during his stay at Hotel 129.

As if possessed by a ghost, but not possessed by a ghost, is psychic magic similar to such a spell?

The funeral shop owner nodded and shook his head, “That’s all it takes to say that’s too narrow-minded.”

Jiang Luo is open-minded: “Please enlighten me.”

“There are spirits in all things, more than just dealing with the dead,” the funeral shop owner did not go on, but turned to another matter, “To learn psychic arts, it is best to maintain a child’s body. If you invite a spirit to your body, your body is clean and untainted, only then will you be liked by the right spirit and be at your disposal in times of crisis. But if you have already broken your body and are not a child, the spirit you invite will be an evil spirit, and if you invite an evil spirit to your body, it will be easier to invite the gods than to send them away, and if you are not careful, you will be controlled by the evil spirit, and eventually you will be injured and die.”

From the moment he said the first word, Jiang Luo stiffened without a trace.

Feng Li didn’t notice the difference, “He’s naturally a child.”

The funeral shop owner looked Jiang Luo up and down, “Don’t you have a boyfriend or girlfriend with such good looks?”

Jiang Luo looked at them both, his expression slowly becoming humiliated, his eyes slowly reddening.

If he holds out now, he will only pit himself afterwards, so he might as well come clean now.

Jiang Luo doesn’t trust Feng Li, who has Tian Shifu at heart, and he doesn’t think he’s important enough for Feng Li to take on the Qi and Chi families for him.

The facts are clear: Jiang Luo is Feng Li’s disciple, the Qi and Chi families dared to kill him, and the Chi family dared to drug him, either because they had Feng Li’s permission, thinking that Jiang Luo would not do anything to Feng Li even if he told him, or they were not afraid of Feng Li.

The latter can be ruled out if the Chi family is very cozy with Feng Li.

But seeing as Feng Li still thinks he’s a child today, I’m afraid that even if Feng Li knows that Qi and Chi are after him, he doesn’t know exactly what these two families have done.

Even if Feng Li won’t stand up for Jiang Luo, it will be worth it for Jiang Luo to sue because it will put Tian Shifu at odds with the Chi and Qi families.

His lips were pursed and vaguely white, and his fists were clenched in a manner of great insult.

The funeral shop owner was amazed as he sat up, “What’s going on here?”

Feng Li frowned and asked in a deep voice, “Speak.”

Jiang Luo wiped his tears and said stoically : “Sir, I was drugged by a group of people when I was on a mission on the ship. They seemed to be from the Chi family and said they wanted to use me to lure out Chi You. The drug was so brazen that I …… I lost my virginity that night.”

With a pained look that he could not bear to look back on, the dark-haired youth trivialised the matter, but the despair was evident.

As a young man with great talent and a promising future, his child body was forced to become an evil spirit because he was drugged by someone else.

The funeral shop owner’s jaw dropped, “You and Chi, Chi You–”

“There was a loud bang and the solid wood table in front of Feng Li’s body suddenly broke into pieces.

The contents of the table fell to the ground in a ding-dong, shattering tea bowls and spilling tea leaves all over the floor.

The ceramic tile rolled down in front of Jiang Luo’s feet.

The two men in the room hold their breath momentarily and look towards Feng Li in disbelief.

Feng Li’s face was moody, he didn’t seem to be angry, but his aura was extremely frightening and thick as if it were substance. The table shattered and froth fell on his robe, and the Heavenly Master in his Tang suit looked like a statue with deep emotions as he asked without a ripple, “They drugged you to break your virginity?”

Feng Li looks calm, but that calmness is frightening.

“Yes, I ……”

The floor cracked beneath Feng Li’s feet, the cracks splitting in half and spreading horribly around.

Feng Li’s eyes darkened as he silently turned the jade trigger finger in his hand, and Jiang Luo shut up in time.

The atmosphere was stagnant and breathing became oppressive. The funeral shop owner suddenly stood up and hurriedly approached Jiang Luo, saying sternly, “Lift the hem of your shirt and let me see the side of your waist!”

Jiang Luo is puzzled: “My waist side?”

The undertaker was too anxious to answer and reached out to roll up Jiang Luo’s shirt himself, only slightly, and saw three tiny moles in an unobtrusive spot on the side of the dark-haired youth’s waist.

The red mole appears as if drawn with a brush, low on the side of a white, strong, thin waist.

Jiang Luo followed his line of sight and realised how he had these three extra moles on his body, he touched the three small moles in surprise, “When did these appear?”

The three small moles appeared in a hidden location and should have hidden them when his body was covered in hickeys the other day. In the past few days Jiang Luo had taken a bath, and because he didn’t want to see the marks on his body, he didn’t even look closely at the changes on his body in the bath.

The funeral shop owner blushed hard and muttered, “Oh no, oh no ……”

The look on his face made Jiang Luo feel bad, Jiang Luo’s eyelids fluttered a few times, “What does this mole mean?”

Jiang Luo had just finished speaking when he felt a shadow approaching and he looked up to see Feng Li walking up to him.

The funeral shop owner stepped back from Jiang Luo and gruffly said to Feng Li, “Come and take a look.”

Feng Li reaches out and lifts the hem of Jiang Luo’s shirt with his cool fingers, looking down at it.

The three small moles were clearly distinguishable, and the chill in his body was sudden as he brushed his fingertips over the spot.

“He did sleep with Chi You,” the undertaker wrinkled his brow in distress, “and even the curse of the Chi family’s first line spread to him.”

Jiang Luo : “…… What did you say?”

The curse of the first line of the Chi family?

“Since you have that kind of relationship with Chi You, you must also know that the Chi family’s first line has never lived to the age of thirty,” the funeral shop owner looked at him with a complicated gaze, “The rumour is that it is because the first line’s spirit body is too powerful and the flesh cannot withstand the spirit body, that is why they all die young. But if you think about it, you can see that it doesn’t make sense. It’s not like the Chi family’s direct line is the only one with the surname Chi, they also have wives, but the foreign girls who marry into the Chi family’s direct line also die before they reach the age of thirty.”

“Only a few people know that this is the curse of the first line of the Chi family. No one knows who cast this curse and exactly what it is, but for every person who has been married to a member of the first line of the Chi family, three moles like this will appear on the side of their waist and then they will die before they are thirty.”

“The first line of the Chi family also has a rotten reputation in the dark because of this curse.”

Jiang Luo’s face was blue, but something flashed in his mind when he heard this.

Before he could catch it, he heard the funeral shop owner sigh, ” Chi You are dead, how can you still ……”

Jiang Luo’s anger rekindled as he thought of the three moles on the side of Chi You’s waist, which had been described three times in the original novel, and thought it was a simple physical feature, but he never imagined it would have such a meaning.

Shit.

Jiang Luo can’t help but curse in his mind, if he had known that having sex with Chi You came with a curse, Jiang Luo would not have slept with him even if he was suffocating.

He was so unlucky.

Jiang Luo took a deep breath and immediately asked the point that mattered most to him, “How can we break the curse?”

Jiang Luo doesn’t want to die.

He very, very much did not want to die.

Since the first day he entered this extremely dangerous world, Jiang Luo has been struggling to stay alive.

He has a strong desire to live, and although Jiang Luo is always on the edge of life and death, time and time again the danger is a powerful force for life. This sense of survival in the midst of danger is so addictive that Jiang Luo’s scalp trembles, but just because he enjoys the thrill of danger doesn’t mean he wants a certain death before he turns thirty.

This made Jiang Luo laugh.

At this moment, apart from cursing Chi You, his hostility and killing intent towards the Chi family reached an unprecedented new level.

The Chi family deserves to die.

The desire to destroy the Chi family and break the curse was high. Jiang Luo’s heart was heavy with anger, and he pushed down the violence, looking straight at the funeral shop owner, waiting for his answer.

The funeral shop owner laughed bitterly, “Even Chi You died before he was thirty …… who could have done anything about it.”

Jiang Luo’s expression is cold.

Feng Li dropped the hem of his shirt, turned around with a blank face and walked out, “Prepare the car, go to Lian’s house.”
