Chapter 428 The Unlucky Female Supporting Character in a Metaphysical Novel 5
Madam Pei knew he didn't believe her, so she squeezed his hand and said, "I saw it with my own eyes. Your aunt was almost strangled to death by that ghost. It was all thanks to that master."
"But that ghost was too powerful. The master coughed up a lot of blood before he could temporarily seal it off."
"The master said that we must find an even more powerful master within three days to completely eliminate that ghost, otherwise... our family will be destroyed..."
With tears in her eyes and her face full of worry and fear, Madam Pei said urgently, "Ah Lin, believe your grandmother. I saw it with my own eyes. Your aunt still has dark bruises on her neck from being strangled."
Pei Lin patted her hand and comforted her, "Okay, Grandma, don't worry, I'll go to Aunt's house first."
Madam Pei calmed down, clearly trusting Pei Lin quite a bit. "Wait a moment."
After saying that, she went back to her room, took out the amulet she had obtained from the temple, and handed it to Pei Lin.
"Although the ghost is temporarily sealed, it's still better to be careful. Wear the amulet."
Pei Lin did not refuse, and took the amulet, saying, "Grandma, you should rest well. Don't worry, I'm here."
Madam Pei nodded and watched him leave the house.
She felt much better, but she was still worried about her daughter's affairs and couldn't sleep, so she simply sat downstairs and waited for Pei Lin to come back.
The Jiang family is now shrouded in gloom and despair.
When something happened at home, Jiang Yao rushed back from the hospital.
Influenced by Pei Lin, he was also someone who did not believe in metaphysics, but looking at the clear bruises on his mother's neck, he really didn't know how to explain it scientifically.
Moreover, his father was also present at the time, and it is said that in his haste, when he tried to pry the ghost away, his hand even passed through the ghost's body.
His parents aren't easily fooled either; now that they're saying there are ghosts, he simply can't believe in science anymore.
Jiang Yao's worldview has completely collapsed!
There really are ghosts in this world!
He said he couldn't have fallen flat on his face and broken his leg. It turns out it was all the work of a ghost!
Just as he was cautiously glancing around, afraid that a ghost might suddenly appear from some corner, Pei Lin arrived.
Pei Wanning was frightened and injured by the ghost, and is now somewhat weak. However, she did not go back to her room to rest, but stayed in the living room with her husband and son, feeling safer with more people around.
And that master, because the Jiang family spent a lot of money to let him stay at the Jiang family's house for the next few days, is also in the living room now.
He had actually done his best. Now that the ghost was sealed and couldn't cause trouble for the time being, there was no point in him staying here. It was just that the Jiang family wanted to have peace of mind.
Pei Wanning asked when she saw Pei Lin, "Lin, you're here? How's your grandmother?"
The old lady had been greatly frightened and almost fainted. Now that there was a ticking time bomb in the house, Pei Wanning dared not keep the old lady there and insisted that someone send her back.
"Grandma is fine, she's just a little worried about you."
He glanced at the strangulation marks on Pei Wanning's neck; the fingerprints were clear and bluish-black, indicating that she had been strangled with great force.
Pei Lin frowned, sat down on the sofa, asked a few questions, and then chatted with the master to find out what was going on.
Jiang Yao, dragging his injured leg, squeezed his way to sit down next to Pei Lin and asked with some anticipation, "Cousin, what are your thoughts?"
He knew that Pei Lin didn't believe in these supernatural and superstitious things at all, but now that the facts were right in front of him, he really wanted to see Pei Lin's reaction.
We can't let him be the only one whose values have collapsed!
Pei Lin pondered for a moment and said, "I want to see that ghost."
Jiang Yao: ...You're amazing! You're not afraid at all!
After hearing his words, the master said, "Mr. Pei, the ghost is now sealed and cannot come out to cause trouble, nor can you see it."
"Moreover, it's not a good thing for ordinary people to see ghosts. If they get tainted by ghostly energy, they'll either have bad luck or get sick."
Jiang Yao asked in a low voice, "Cousin, don't you believe me?"
Pei Lin did not answer his question, but instead asked the master, "The master said that we must find a more powerful master within three days to deal with that ghost. Could you recommend a master?"
The master frowned and thought for a moment, then said, "Most of the people in the Xuanmen I know are at about the same level as me, but I do know a promising young talent. Although she is young, she is quite capable. However, there are too many people looking for her, and it is said that the waiting list is usually a month long."
“If you really can’t find any other masters, you can try asking her to see if you can cut in line, since this is a matter of life and death for you.”
Pei Lin nodded. "Could you please provide me with your contact information, Master?"
"I don't have her contact information either, but I can ask her for you."
Although all signs now indicate that an evil spirit is causing trouble, and Pei Lin believes that his grandmother, aunt, and uncle are not easily fooled, he still cautiously maintains a degree of skepticism until he has seen the ghost with his own eyes.
He decided to see how that supposedly very powerful master would handle the matter.

Yun Qing experienced the most abnormal day since birth.
She lived in constant fear, but nothing ever happened.
Even when she deliberately squeezed into crowded areas when she went to get food in the cafeteria, no one stepped on her feet.
She specifically ordered a braised fish, and the auntie not only didn't make a shaky hand gesture, but also gave her two extra pieces because she looked malnourished, telling her to eat properly.
She finished eating the fish without getting a fishbone stuck in her throat.
Unconvinced, she went and bought a few more oranges, specifically choosing the ones that looked sour, but they all turned out to be very sweet.
Finally, she went all out and deliberately threw ten yuan on the ground, determined to have some bad luck and put her mind at ease.
Surprisingly, a female student picked it up and chased after her to return it.
Yun Qing: ...
No kidding! Yun Qing even started thinking about leaving a will when she went to sleep last night.
After falling asleep, she dreamed of being hit by a car, vomiting blood, unable to breathe, and about to die.
She was still shaken when she woke up early in the morning.
She listlessly washed up and prepared to buy breakfast.
Before leaving the house, I poured myself a glass of water and then suddenly choked.
Yun Qing: !!!
Is it normal now?!
Will this kill her?
Her heart, which had been pounding, slowly calmed down a bit. Remembering that Wen Qi and Lin Ranran had both mentioned that the steamed buns outside the school were delicious, she decided to go a little further and buy breakfast outside the school.
She even tripped and fell on the way, and then she was completely relieved.
Although she was having bad luck again, she felt like she had been reborn and couldn't resist buying a few skewers of oden to celebrate.
Then she realized how naive she had been!
Yunqing was so tempted by the smell of oden that she grabbed a skewer and ate it as she walked.
As soon as she reached the school gate, an electric scooter sped past her, almost hitting her.
Yun Qing was startled, and then choked on the meatball.
When she felt the suffocating sensation, Yun Qing was filled with terror. It was indeed aimed at her life!
At that moment, a Maybach slowly stopped at the school gate. Pei Lin, who was inside the car, looked towards the school gate and immediately spotted a somewhat familiar figure.
At this moment, Yun Qing was carrying breakfast in one hand and pounding her chest with the other, her face already flushed.
Pei Lin noticed something was wrong, immediately opened the car door, got out, and ran over.
The driver hadn't even reacted yet, "Eh? Mr. Pei..."
After Yun Qing realized she couldn't cough up the foreign object stuck in her throat, she was about to ask someone for help when someone pinched her shoulder.
"Don't be afraid."
Before she could react, the person had already quickly moved behind her.
Pei Lin had her sit on his bent thighs, leaned forward, and then hugged her from behind. He made a fist with his left hand, pressed the base of his thumb against her upper abdomen, wrapped his right hand around his left hand, tightened his arms and applied pressure, then relaxed, then tightened again. After repeating this several times, Yun Qing finally spat out the pill.
Yun Qing, her legs a little weak, was supported by him. After catching her breath, she turned to look at him, still somewhat shaken, and hesitated for a moment before saying, "Thank you..."
Unexpectedly, it was this person who saved her again. He is such a kind person!
