Chapter 92: Visiting the City God Temple Again

One hour later, the acupuncture session ended.

"How is it? Do you feel anything?" Lin’s Mother asked impatiently.

"It just feels warm around my waist." Lin Wan carefully sensed it.

"It’s only the first day, no need to rush. I estimate it’ll take five days to see effects. Expect to stand up, maybe two months later."

"Two months?"

"Two months!"

Lin Wan and Lin’s Mother were stunned, not because two months was too long, but because it was too short.

Lin Wan couldn’t help but ask, "In two months, my waist fracture won’t be completely healed, will it?"

"Tsk—" Lu Zheng chuckled, "You’re underestimating my True Qi too much. I just used True Qi to clear the Qi Vein in your waist and left a thread of True Qi in your body to slowly help your nerves recover.

With the aid of my True Qi, both nerve recovery speed and bone healing speed will greatly accelerate."

Lin’s Mother licked her lips, "Why does that sound like a martial arts novel?"

Lin Wan shook her head, "Martial arts novels aren’t this magical, this is the advanced version, Xianxia novels."

Lu Zheng laughed heartily, "Alright, I’ll come over every morning from now on, let’s wait one or two months to see the results."

Lin Wan nodded with a smile, "Okay!"

Anyway, in the future, she would let Lu Zheng take liberties.

...

Things on Lin Wan’s side are on track.

Lu Zheng turned his gaze to the East, Liu Yifan’s matter needed ongoing attention.

Today happened to be the fifth day since he returned home from Qing’an Temple, it was time for him to watch horror movies again.

...

In less than ten days, after experiencing three ghost sightings, Liu Yifan was almost scared to death.

However, ever since he asked the master at Qing’an Temple to perform a ritual to drive away evil, the Ghost Infant indeed stopped bothering him.

"I didn’t expect that the monk at Qing’an Temple who looked chubby and big-eared would actually have true abilities." Liu Yifan muttered to himself, "He’s more reliable than those psychological spirit professors.

What’s up with the past experiences? Damn, I have psychological pressure?

Damn, it’s obvious that someone was messing around at the hotel, resulting in a death, and that Ghost Baby targeted me!

Damn! So unlucky!"

In the spacious room, Liu Yifan left the lights on for several days, inviting friends to smoke, play cards, play games, and when tired, he slept in the hallway, never letting himself out of others’ sight.

Until this noon, when nothing happened, Liu Yifan was sure the master from Qing’an Temple had sent the Ghost Infant into reincarnation, and then he sent those rowdy friends away.

"I haven’t had any meat for five days, I’m dying here, I’ll call two this time."

Liu Yifan scrolled through the contacts on his phone, swiping randomly.

He made calls, summoned people.

Left the house, drove, went on a date, came back home.

Liu Yifan led in front, two women followed behind.

And when Liu Yifan opened the door, about to reach for the light switch.

The corridor lights outside shone in from behind, illuminating Liu Yifan clearly enough to see the Ghost Infant standing just one meter in front of him!

Grinning at him!

Showing a mouthful of inhuman sharp teeth!

"Ah!!!!!!!"

...

Liu Yifan fainted again.

This time, Lu Zheng even had Ghost Child amplify it a bit, leaving some Yin Qi in his body, enough for him to feel chills all over during the day and suffer impotence at night.

Forget about leaving traces or anything, let others think he’s going crazy instead.

...

"Lin Wan, I’m telling you, Liu Yifan must be getting his comeuppance!"

On the phone, Huang Xiumin excitedly reported to Lin Wan.

"This guy has run into ghosts four times in less than ten days! The Hai City tycoon circle is buzzing with it, he’s completely become the laughingstock!"

"What’s going on?"

"The first time was at the Waldorf Hotel, a hotel run by foreigners. Don’t know if it’s some hundred-year-old vengeful spirit, but it appeared, and the first time it showed, it happened to be Liu Yifan."

On the phone, Huang Xiumin vividly narrated Liu Yifan’s several ghost encounters to Lin Wan.

No choice, whether visiting doctors or going to the temple, to ensure effectiveness, Liu Yifan had to honestly recount his ghost experiences.

As a result, it’s not just the police who know the whole story, basically, the entire Hai City tycoon circle knows.

"They say the Waldorf Hotel even invited a priest to perform what they call, oh, Mass!

At that time, Liu Yifan was still present, and that very night he went back and saw a ghost!

Hahaha!

Turns out, our country’s experts are still better, they say after he went to Qing’an Temple, he was peaceful for a full five days! So early this morning, he left the hospital and headed straight to Qing’an Temple."

After hanging up the phone, Lin Wan smiled and said to Lu Zheng, "Do you think there’s really retribution in this world?"

"There is." Lu Zheng nodded, "The will of heaven is evident, acting through people."

"Sounds like someone wants to harm Liu Yifan." Lin Wan shook her head.

"Discipline, discipline, you don’t have evidence now!" Lu Zheng tapped Lin Wan’s forehead.

Lin Wan covered her head, as she was still a police officer, hadn’t resigned.

Lu Zheng had discussed with Li Jinglin, giving Lin Wan some recovery time, if it’s confirmed she can’t stand up, then talk about arranging other work.

"Want to know what’s really going on with Liu Yifan’s situation?"

"Of course I want to!" Lin Wan pouted.

"Then wait until you’re better, investigate yourself, and put him away!"

Lin Wan smiled at this, tilted her head, and asked Lu Zheng, "Can I really get well?"

Lu Zheng smirked mischievously, made a "snap" sound.

Then he raised his hand and rubbed his fingers under his nose, "Ah, you know what, the feeling’s really nice."

"What are you doing!" Lin Wan was embarrassed and angry.

"Feel anything?"

"Eh?" Lin Wan was suddenly dazed, "Good...seems like a little bit?"

"I’m leaving! Continuing tomorrow!"

Taking advantage of Lin Wan not reacting, Lu Zheng decisively fled.

...

Returning home, teleporting, he had a purely natural dinner made by Aunt Liu.

It’s already mid-September now, the weather is gradually getting cooler, and at the same time, it’s getting darker earlier and earlier.

Lu Zheng thought about it, then teleported to get two bottles of Wuliangye, swapped them for porcelain bottles, and waited until it was completely dark, before he headed out with the wine.

Swayingly, he arrived at the City God Temple, only to find the surrounding area was quiet within a hundred meters, and the temple itself was pitch dark, only the sound of the wind rustling.

Lu Zheng stood at the door and softly called out.

"Is Lord City God here?"

In the next moment, two figures suddenly appeared.

"Greetings, Young Master Lu!"

Lu Zheng looked around, recognizing them as the personal guards of City God Xin Zhanting.

"The lord requests you!"

As soon as Lu Zheng entered the main hall of the City God Temple with the guards, he saw Xin Zhanting sniffing the air madly, staring intently at the wine bottle in Lu Zheng’s hand.

"The wine is here, is there any food to go with it?"

Xin Zhanting hurriedly waved his hand, ordering the guards to prepare some dishes to go with the wine.

"Sit down, Younger Brother Lu, what made you think of having a drink with me?"

Lu Zheng laughed, "These days I’ve been practicing the ’Tiger Roar Saber’ you gave me, learned a bit, isn’t it only right to come and ask for your advice? Visiting empty-handed wouldn’t be proper, surely Brother Xin wouldn’t mind me bringing only wine and not food, right?"

Xin Zhanting laughed heartily, "Not at all, not at all, brother here has braised meat and roast goose, all delicious offerings from the temple, was just worrying about not having someone to share them."

"Then I won’t be polite!"
