Chapter 56: 56 Impulse
Chapter Fifty-Five
Long Xiaoshan had not believed in ghosts and deities before.
But ever since he acquired the Jade Purifying Bottle and saw Chun Tao's soul during her treatment, he knew for certain that ghosts existed in this world.
Afterward, he became very curious, deliberately looking for books and searching online.
This search indeed yielded some results.
He learned that many bizarre incidents were not unfounded rumors.
Now, seeing the black handprint on Shen Yuerong's neck, he made some connections, as there were similar accounts in certain strange cases, akin to signs of being haunted by spirits.
Of course, he could not be one hundred percent certain right now.
After all, he had not witnessed it with his own eyes.
However, although it was only their second meeting, he felt a sense of friendship with Shen Yuerong; the chat on the bus had been quite enjoyable. A haunting could either be a trifling matter, leading to a serious illness, or it could be fatal.
He didn't want anything to happen to Shen Yuerong.
So he asked, "Sister Shen, have you been sleeping poorly recently, often having nightmares, and feeling quite unwell?"
Shen Yuerong looked at Long Xiaoshan in surprise and asked, "How do you know?"
"I am a barefoot doctor," Long Xiaoshan said without revealing the truth, because such matters were too metaphysical to discuss in front of many people, and she was also the village head.
Shen Yuerong knew Long Xiaoshan was skilled in medicine, as he had previously cured a baby suffering from food poisoning on the bus.
Therefore, she said trustingly, "I haven't been getting better even with medication. Do you have a way?"
After arriving at the farm, Long Xiaoshan unloaded the purchases. Couple Long Dashan was thrilled to receive many new clothes and shoes, scolding him for spending recklessly while still showing satisfaction on their faces.
Long Xiaoshan then took a litter of puppies down to a room.
The puppies were recently born, and Long Xiaoshan brought a box of milk, opened it, poured it into bottles, and mixed in some Silver Spiritual Liquid from the Jade Purifying Bottle.
He fed a bit to each puppy.
After doing these things, Long Xiaoshan pondered how to help Shen Yuerong.
While he was not completely sure that she was haunted, there was a high probability. However, Long Xiaoshan had never banished a ghost and was not very knowledgeable about it, so he had to rely on the internet.
He took out his phone, connected to the internet, and started searching online.
With the internet being so advanced today, his search indeed turned up many methods.
However, a lot of them were fabrications or invented in novels.
After looking through them, although he did not understand talismans, there were some generally accepted items said to expel ghosts, such as a Peach Wood Sword, Black Dog Blood, a live rooster, and Child's Urine.
These were not hard to find.
After considering, he went to make preparations.
The afternoon quickly passed, and with the farm workers gone home with their provisions, Couple Long Dashan also stayed for dinner. Finishing their meal, they said, "Xiaoshan, aren't you going back to sleep today?"
"Not going back, I'll stay here and watch," Long Xiaoshan answered.
"Indeed, you should watch. There are surely those envious," He Xiangyue spoke up, "Old man, you stay here with Xiaoshan and take turns."
"Alright," Long Dashan agreed.
"No need, no need," Long Xiaoshan thought of that beautiful silhouette and quickly said, "I'll be fine alone. Dad is not well; he needs more time to recover."
