The atmosphere seemed to freeze for a moment, and no one spoke.
Bi Hong was a little angry, but he controlled it well. If it were his soldiers, he might have cursed, but the person in front of him was his son's friend, a person who wanted to help with good intentions. He couldn't curse, as this would Discourteous.
He turned his head and said to Bi Hui: "I have sent someone to ask for a doctor with excellent medical skills. The imperial doctor can't find out the cause. Maybe other doctors can..." He didn't even believe this. .
Just as Zhu Yuanyu was about to say something, his expression suddenly changed drastically, "General, please obey the authority in urgent matters. I've offended you!"
When he just passed Bi Hong, the other party didn't react slowly and immediately turned around and tried to stop him.
How could Bi Hong let a gibbering boy break into his wife's ward? Zhu Yuanyu's behavior now completely angered him. He cursed: "How can you learn nonsense at such a young age!"
A grapple failed to capture anyone. Bi Hong was extremely surprised, so he sped up his movements.
Just as the two were entangled, the door of the house suddenly opened, and a maid stumbled out in a panic, shouting: "It's not good! It's not good! Madam, she, she is out of breath——" After shouting, he fell to his knees on the ground.
"What!" Bi Hong was shocked, leaving Zhu Yuanyu behind and ran into the room.
Bi Hui's face was pale, his hand on crutches was trembling slightly, and he followed Bi Hong into the room.
The butler was so anxious that he was sweating and murmuring to himself: "What can we do...what can we do..."
Wang Jinyi was stunned by the news. When he came to his senses, he realized that his cousin was missing.
Zhu Yuanyu suddenly saw that the black smoke covering the house suddenly turned like ink, and felt bad, so he risked offending Bi Hong and wanted to stop it. As a result, Bi Hong's reaction was also quick, and when the two got entangled, He wasted time and followed Bi Hui into the room.
Entering the room, he found the monster's identity at a glance - a blue-grey vase placed on the ancient shelf.
He did not immediately take care of the monster, but walked to Bi Hui's side.
Bi Hui looked sad and shocked. He couldn't believe that his mother, who was fine before going out today, would suddenly leave him like this. When he noticed Zhu Yuanyu's approach, he looked over with red eyes.
Zhu Yuanyu didn't look at him, not even Bi Hong, who was kneeling beside the bed and calling the general's wife by her name in grief. He focused his eyes on the general's wife, or her soul.
The scene in front of him made him extremely angry: a female ghost was biting the soul of the general's wife. The general's wife's soul looked like she was in pain, but she had no ability to resist. The female ghost was much more powerful than her.
The general's wife is not yet a real ghost. The legs of her soul are still connected to the physical body and have not completely separated.
"There is still hope." Zhu Yuanyu said.
Then, before the father and son could react, he took action.
He took out the soul-fixing talismans from Yuperii. Fortunately, after his cousin's last incident, he often prepared some special talismans in Yuperii, so that they could be used at any time in critical moments.
He held the talisman between his index and middle fingers and shot towards the body of the general's wife. Then when the female ghost found that the soul in her hand was gone, she finally noticed the threat of Zhu Yuanyu.
He didn't give the female ghost a chance to counterattack. He always struck quickly and accurately. He took out the talisman from his jade pendant to deal with the female ghost. When the female ghost rushed to him, he raised his hand and the talisman turned into an iron chain with thunder light. Locking the female ghost tightly, the female ghost struggled in fear, but the more she struggled, the tighter she contracted.
As soon as Zhu Yuanyu said "There is still hope", the Bi family's father and son cast their eyes on him, so they could clearly see all his weird actions.
Bi Hong was completely shocked and speechless by the light emitted by the talisman. Only now did he realize that he might have misunderstood.
After Zhu Yuanyu locked the female ghost, he turned his attention to the general's wife again, and the father and son also followed his line of sight.
The general's wife lying on the bed had resumed breathing, and her chest was rising and falling.
Bi Hong looked in disbelief. What happened at the scene could simply subvert his outlook on life, values, and world view. His life creed was crumbling.
Bi Hui also had a complicated look on his face, but it was not as hard as his father's. He had always had hopes for Zhu Yuanyu. He felt that Zhu Yuanyu had an unusual power, and today he finally saw it.
"...Yuanyu, thank you..." It's really great to have you here...
Zhu Yuanyu heard this and smiled encouragingly at Bi Hui.
…
The main hall of the "Fuqu Pavilion" of the General's Mansion.
"...That's probably what happened. The female ghost has been trapped by me, and she has no ability to come out to harm others for the time being. As for this vase -" Zhu Yuanyu looked at the vase sealed with a talisman, "I'd better give it to you first. I'll keep it safe for now, I want to understand why the female ghost wants to harm people."
After investigation, it was found that the vase appeared in the general's mansion for no reason, and it was most likely the vase rumored to have killed three people.
Bi Hong looked frightened. If it weren't for Zhu Yuanyu's presence, his wife would have died long ago. He had heard about the strange thing in the capital, but he didn't expect it to happen to him.
"It's my fault this time, if not..."
Bi Hong sincerely apologized to Zhu Yuanyu and expressed his gratitude.
Zhu Yuanyu accepted it, and he deserved it.
At the same time, he hoped that after this lesson, Bi Hong could change his character. If he had been willing to listen to other people's opinions at that time and not be stubborn and eager to deny everything, maybe the general's wife would not have to suffer so much. The injury to the soul is the most painful. It's awesome, the taste is like breaking bones and peeling skin.
Now that the general's wife's soul has been immobilized by Zhu Yuanyu with the talisman, she still needs to slowly recover her vitality. This process is also long.
"You will be our Bi family's great benefactor from now on. Our Bi family always repays kindness. If there is any need for our help, just say it. You're welcome!" Bi Hong, the head of the Bi family, solemnly said to Zhu Yuanyu promised, "As long as it is something that is not harmful to nature and is unreasonable, I will do what I say!"
Zhu Yuanyu smiled and said: "Brother Bi treats me well. I am just trying my best. General, you are serious!"
Bi Hong waved his hand, "Hey, don't call a general so unfamiliar. Just call me uncle!"
"uncle."
Wang Jinyi and Bi Hui looked at each other and smiled.
After that, Zhu Yuanyu and Wang Jinyi stayed at the General's Mansion for dinner, and everyone got along well. Then Bi Hong left due to something, and the three young people became more relaxed.
Wang Jinyi asked Zhu Yuanyu curiously, "Yuanyu, what are you going to do with that... female ghost?"
Bi Hui also looked at Zhu Yuanyu.
Zhu Yuanyu pondered for a moment and said: "There is something fishy about it. I need to verify it carefully. I'm afraid that female ghost..."
"Afraid of what?" Wang Jinyi asked.
"I'm afraid I have other reasons."
