8. Physics Exorcism
With ghost marriage!? Hearing this news, Shen Shu’s face changed slightly, but her tone was still cold and calm: “What ghost marriage?”
Lin Xiaotang was forced to have a ghost marriage, she never participated in it from beginning to end, and what did it have to do with her. At most, she just didn’t report what she knew and she had a bad relationship with the Lin family, which was beyond reproach.
“What are you still pretending to be here?” Hearing her say that, Xiao Chen just found it funny: “If it weren’t for you, the goddess would go to Lin Xiaotang?”
Xiao Chen and Shen Shu have known each other for two years, and they have an intimate relationship with each other so as soon as he heard it, he could tell that Shen Shu was lying. It’s not that Shen Shu didn’t lie before, but at that time, Xiao Chen would think she was very interesting, and that this cold-hearted Feng Shui master was still so cute. But now, when she heard that Shen Shu was still there pretending to not know anything, Xiao Chen only felt that she was acting in a pretentious manner, and her appearance was different.
Realizing that Xiao Chen’s attitude was not right, Shen Shu’s heart skipped a beat. She bit her lower lip and pretended to be calm: “I don’t understand what you’re talking about…”
“Do you think everyone is a fool?” Xiao Chen interrupted her directly, sneered, and asked back, ” Why do you think I told you about Lin Xiaotang’s birthday?”
If it wasn’t for her intentions, how could Xiao Chen be on the street talking about such private information for no reason? And the goddess too. It is estimated that from the moment Shen Shu opened her mouth, she could see Shen Shu’s purpose. She would use Lin Xiaotang’s birth date to match her son’s ghost marriage, but it was just a plan. After all, Lin Xiaotang came from a good background, and the Lin family only believed in science. If it happens, it will be the secret of the three of them. If it doesn’t work out… Xiao Chen thought of the various pressures from the Lin Group in the past few days, and his mood became more and more irritable. Without waiting for Shen Shu to say anything, he simply hung up the phone.
Dududu… Listening to the blind tone from the phone, Shen Shu’s fingers trembled slightly, and her face became extremely pale. Xiao Chen’s attitude clearly meant that he should put all the responsibility on her. As long as that goddess confesses her, she will be finished! No, she had to find a way. Shen Shu lowered her eyes and clenched her fists involuntarily, her nails deeply embedded in her palms. Do you want to do something to the Lin family yourself? No, everyone has an APP now, and the Lin family will definitely download it too. Moreover, Lin Xiaotang was able to use this app two months ago, which means that she is likely to be one of the developers. In this way, Lin Xiaotang must be protected by someone from the government. If she makes a rash move, it may not be of much use, and instead, she will be caught. But let them continue to investigate, she will definitely be involved. She wants to stop them, even if the goddess has confessed her now, she has to find a way to hold them back. Otherwise, her hard work over the past 20 years would be in vain… I don’t know what to think, Shen Shu’s eyes moved slightly. If she doesn’t do it, it doesn’t mean that others can’t do it. In the current metaphysics circle, she cannot be the only one who is dissatisfied with that APP. Even if they are unhappy in their hearts, they will not show it directly because of the face of the country. But those who have gone the wrong way, they themselves rely on the use of Taoism to harm people to seek wealth. For people who develop and research apps, they can be said to be abhorrent. And she just happened to know that there were so many feng shui masters of the evil way. She just needs to give them some information and operate them properly, even the country has no way to protect Lin Xiaotang.
Lin Xiaotang didn’t know the dispute between Shen Shu and Xiao Chen. She just stumbled across a piece of gossip while browsing the news once. It was reported in the news that three days ago, the female companion Xiao Chen brought to a certain banquet was no longer Shen Shu, but an unheard of young model. Many people relish this. This swinger, who is keen to have fun, has previously declared in front of the media that he has found true love, and decided to change his mind and “keep his body like a jade” for the person he loves. Now it seems that his nature is still unchanged, and the so-called prodigal son is just a joke. After noticing this gossip news, Lin Xiaotang was a little surprised. After all, in the original plot, after meeting Shen Shu, the male protagonist Xiao Chen did clean himself up and stayed away from those previous lives. Unexpectedly, this has happened now. Lin Xiaotang thought about it for a while, and really couldn’t figure out why this happened. It seems that after she crossed over, besides doing research, she didn’t do anything else?
Even the hero and heroine, she has only met once. Could it be that this is the butterfly effect? Lin Xiaotang, who doesn’t know love, doesn’t know the reason.
Shen Shu and Xiao Chen, who haven’t had time to die together, have not experienced the test of life and death, and their relationship is not strong. What Xiao Chen liked was just the mysterious, powerful, cold and beautiful Feng Shui master Shen Shu at the beginning. Once she lost that layer of filter, Shen Shu was just an ordinary woman. Playboy brother Xiao Chen has seen too many creatures like women. After the Lin Group gradually developed upwards and successfully promoted to the first-tier giants, the Xiao Group, as the party who had torn up the marriage, also suffered from the suppression and exclusion from the Lin Group.
Within half a year, the Xiao Group suffered heavy losses, and many branches were crumbling. It’s not that the Xiao family didn’t think about fighting back, but behind the Lin family, there is a state asylum. In order to save the situation, Xiao Chen has been in the company for three or four months, often staying up late until three or four o’clock in the evening before falling asleep.
In this regard, Xiao’s father and Xiao’s mother are even more regretful. They questioned Xiao Chen every day and asked him why he forcibly broke off the marriage in the first place. “If you like to play, then play outside. Why do you have to give up your marriage?” Father Xiao scolded Xiao Chen so many times. “If it weren’t for you, would our family be like this?”
The haggard mother Xiao stood aside, wiping her tears constantly, “Even if you wants to break off the marriage, you have to have a better attitude, don’t offend them, okay?”
After a long time, even though Xiao Chen still loves Shen Shu in his heart, those loves have long since disappeared under the torture day after day. However, the relationship between Xiao Chen and Shen Shu has nothing to do with Lin Xiaotang. After being slightly shocked, Lin Xiaotang put the matter behind her.
In the next time, in addition to continuing to do research, she went out to perform tasks with people from special departments. Although joining the special department of the state was just a temporary idea, it is also very interesting to go out to handle cases and see various stories between people and ghosts. On this day, after returning from handling the case, Lin Xiaotang received a text message from Lin’s father and Lin’s mother, asking her to come to the study quickly. After she passed it, she realized that it was the witch who had married the original owner to the ghost marriage.
After Lin Xiaotang crossed over and slapped the male ghost to death, the goddess suffered backlash and became extremely weak. In order to avoid the enemy and to restore her body, she hid, and was not found by the Lin family until a few months later. In order to find out the truth, before Lin Xiaotang came back, Lin’s father and Lin’s mother interrogated her. After some careful inquiries, they came to know that the goddess got Lin Xiaotang’s birthday because she heard someone on the street talking about it. And those two people, identified by the goddess, were Shen Shu and Xiao Chen.
“I really didn’t mean to hurt your young lady, it was them who wanted to hurt people!” Looking at the angry father and mother, the goddess argued vigorously: “I can feel that the woman is walking with me, and she looked at me before. After several glances, she definitely knew what I was doing, she was deliberately wanting… to…” Halfway through the sentence, the goddess suddenly widened her eyes, and her voice stopped. She opened her mouth wide, as if she was strangled by a pair of invisible hands, her old face flushed red, but she couldn’t say anything. “I…ah…help, help me…”
The goddess grabbed her neck in pain and made a difficult cry for help. When she uttered the last few words, her eyes were so terrifying that they almost fell out of their sockets.
“What’s going on?!” Lin’s parents and Lin’s mother had seen this battle before, and they were frightened on the spot. But by the time they reacted and took out their phones from their pockets tremblingly, it was already too late. After a few seconds, the goddess finally collapsed in front of them. She is dead. Upon examination, it was found that she had died of asphyxiation. Obviously, she was killed by metaphysical means.
Lin’s father and Lin’s mother looked at the godmother’s body and didn’t know what to do, so she could only send a text message to her daughter and ask her to come back and take a look. After that, they called the police and told the police what happened. Because there are multiple surveillance cameras in the study room, and the surveillance video can prove the innocence of Lin’s parents and Lin’s mother, they were not so embarrassed by the police. But seeing a person’s death with his own eyes, Lin’s father and Lin’s mother were still a little anxious.
“What to do, Xiaotang,” Mother Lin asked hesitantly, “what the hell is going on here, was she killed? Could it be Shen Shu’s hand?”
“Maybe it was her, too. Maybe not,” Lin Xiaotang said lightly, “you try to be more careful these days.”
When Lin Xiaotang came back, the goddess had already fallen. She looked at the corpse of the goddess, and the yin above it had almost dissipated. It seemed that the murderer had specially chosen a Taoist technique that was not easy to be traced. It’s not surprising that a witch would be silenced. It’s just that killing people in front of Lin’s father and Lin’s mother… Shen Shu, is she really so courageous? The person who harmed the original protagonist was the heroine Shen Shu. Lin Xiaotang was not very surprised, because the male and female protagonists were not necessarily good people, and she had met several male protagonists with bad characters before.
But after watching the plot, she can be regarded as a better understanding of the heroine Shen Shu. Such an arrogant method is not something that Shen Shu can do. According to Shen Shu’s character, she prefers to wait for everyone to disappear before starting secretly. Looking at the goddess’s painful expression, Lin Xiaotang frowned slightly. She always felt that the death of the goddess was probably just the beginning. There may be some conspiracy behind this. And this conspiracy is obviously aimed at her.
Sure enough, Lin Xiaotang guessed right. The day after the goddess died, three or four incidents of evil feng shui masters suddenly occurred in Huaihai City. The victims all died in the same way – in public, suffocating for no apparent reason and stopping breathing for just a few seconds. In this regard, the police immediately set up a task force to investigate. But the results of the investigation made many people silent. These victims, without exception, are all people who have had grudges with the Lin Group. And the evidence they left all pointed to the same person—the eldest lady of the Lin family, Lin Xiaotang.
