1093 Begged for help

" Never!" Cai Wu looked at Ji Ziyi like she was a stranger and then said, " Have you forgotten what your brother said? The master of the Heavenly Moon sect said that he was going to help you but in return, he will need a human sacrifice! Do you even know what it means? It means that he will kill someone in exchange for protecting you. Your brother and your entire family have always been under public scrutiny and you want to create such a big mess?"

She then covered her face and then said, "And what about you? You are going to be a celebrity with such a liability on your head, do you think that you will be able to stay without being thrown into prison?" 

Ji Ziyi's expression was really ugly and anxious when she heard this. Although she did not care about what happened to someone else, she did care about herself and her family because only they could give her this level of comfort. 

But she was really desperate! Though nothing happened for the past few days given that she was carrying the talisman handed to her by Song Yan, she still heard strange growling noises, some times she would hear the sound of something churning every night outside the ward. In addition, the talisman was getting blacker and blacker with each passing day. Ji Ziyi was really scared, she knew that once the talisman turned completely black there was nothing that was going to protect her. 

She was afraid that one night the talisman would stop working and she would be skinned alive. 

 Ji Ziyi did not want to experience the pain of that night ever again! Her wounds were yet to heal as well. 

Ji Ziyi looked at the half-black talisman and then turned to look at Cai Wu before saying, " Sister Cai, can you buy some more talismans from that Madam Song? Tell her that I need them urgently, so she should put her work aside and then draw some for me!" 

Cai Wu wanted to tell Ji Ziyi that she needed to be respectful towards Song Yan. She had been staying with Ji Ziyi when the Ji family members were busy and every night she stayed with Ji Ziyi, she would hear strange noises. Sometimes the sound of dogs growling outside the door would echo inside the room and sometimes there would be strange churning noise like meat being minced in a machine that was stuck. 

She had not been able to sleep for the past few days if not for the talisman that she was carrying, she would have really passed out. 

But when she thought about how much Ji Ziyi was anxious these days, she decided to not scold her for the time being. 

She agreed with her words and then called Song Yan. She told the latter that she wanted to buy some more talismans from her. 

Song Yan was not going to refuse someone who came to offer her money from the front. But she did not forget to raise the price several times higher than usual. Who asked Ji Ziyi to be such an unreasonable brat? Since that woman liked to be unreasonable then there was no need for her to sell the talismans at a reasonable price. Also, the Ji family had probably too much money to waste anyway. 

However, Song Yan sold them a grade E grade talisman and not an A one. 

She knew that there was something that Ji Ziyi was hiding and she was not willing to leave the matter at rest like this. 

That woman must have done something evil for a malicious spirit to latch onto her and what was more the dark yin energy that was oozing out of Ji Ziyi's wounds was way more twisted than any malicious ghosts she had seen which told Song Yan that Ji Ziyi must have done something to provoke such an evil. 

Since this was a karmic haunting Song Yan was not willing to pay much attention to it, as for Ji Ziyi who was acting stubborn she was sure that she would sooner or later come begging again like before. 

Before Cai Wu left, Song Yan looked at her with a profound gaze and then said, " Manager Cai, I will let you know something. For your benefit, it's better if you stay away from Ji Ziyi and the malicious ghost that is haunting her. In case you stay with them then there is nothing I will be able to do for you. When a malicious ghost latches onto someone it's impossible for it to let go without spilling blood." 

She then looked at the eyes of the terrified Cai Wu and then added subtly, " Manager Cai, a malicious spirit is a being that would never rest at ease without tasting blood. This is the reason why I am advising you to move away from Ji Ziyi." 

Cai Wu did not used to believe in such things, in the past she used to think that it was better to stay away from things that she did not know about but ever since what happened to Ji Ziyi, she started to believe even more firmly that there were some things that were best left unprovoked. Her worldview changed bit by bit. 

Thus when she heard Song Yan's warning, she could not help but shudder. And when she heard that the malicious ghosts do not let go of a person without spilling blood, she became even more scared as she trembled. She turned to look at Song Yan and hurriedly pleaded, " Master Song, I know that Ji Ziyi was really arrogant and she offended you but you need to keep a bigger heart. She is childish and rude but she has a good heart, she really did not do anything bad. I have watched her grow up, how can she do anything that would provoke a malicious spirit? She is a child whom I raised." 

" Master Song please save Ziyi, she will not be able to withstand such a tragedy!"
