Chapter 63 - Entrusted By a Soul
“I…”
Her eyes darted around before she said, “I’m actually entrusted by someone, no, a soul.”
“Entrusted by a soul?”
Chu Sihan’s eyes narrowed. “Whose soul entrusted you to do this?”
Lu Sheng pursed her lips and said in a low voice, “Lord, it doesn’t matter if you believe me or not. Actually, I can see the dead.”
Chu Sihan did not speak. He watched her calmly for a while and saw the serious expression on her clean face. It did not seem like she was lying.
“Oh?” he replied skeptically. “Tell me more.”
“I was actually entrusted by Miss Deng,” Lu Sheng said. “Miss Deng told me that the county magistrate colluded with Zhao Wei to frame Ah Ming for the Deng family’s demise and divide the Deng family’s assets equally.”
“She also said that this journey of shipping the valuables would definitely not be smooth sailing for the Lord. That’s why she asked me to secretly help you.”
Everyone knew that Zhao Wei wanted to frame Li Ming.
However, not a lot of people knew that Magistrate Shangguan had colluded with Zhao Wei to divide the Deng family’s assets equally.
Could Lu Sheng be telling the truth?
Could she really see the souls of the dead?
He had heard of the State Minister being able to forecast the past and the future, and even travel in the sky. However, to be able to see the souls of the dead…
Did such a fantasy really exist in this world?
“You don’t believe me?”
Seeing his frown and doubtful look, her eyes widened and she looked unhappy.
Chu Sihan looked at her and did not nod or shake his head.
Lu Sheng could not tell if he believed her or not.
“Of course, I can show you if you want to see it.”
To prove that the soul really existed, she did not mind letting him take a look.
Anyway, it was not a big taboo.
“I can see it too?” Chu Sihan was in doubt.
“Of course!”
Lu Sheng took out a talisman and burnt it right in front of him.
A few black figures floated out and stood in a line obediently.
Lu Sheng glanced suspiciously at the souls who had instantly become obedient.
She had not given the order yet. Logically speaking, they should not have been so obedient.
Could it be that they were intimidated by Chu Sihan’s authority?
Yes, that was highly possible!
Chu Sihan could feel the temperature in the room plummeting. He frowned and scanned his surroundings, but there was nothing.
Lu Sheng took out another talisman and bit her finger to draw on it. She murmured.
“Close your eyes.”
Once she finished speaking, Chu Sihan cooperated and closed his eyes.
The yellow talisman stained with blood in Lu Sheng’s hand brushed past his eyes, and a golden light lit up. At the same time, the yellow talisman in her hand combusted spontaneously.
Lu Sheng threw the yellow talisman on the ground and said, “You can open your eyes now.”
The moment Chu Sihan opened his eyes, he realized that there were more people in the room. No, black figures.
Their eyes were red and their bodies were wrapped in black mist. Their feet did not touch the ground and they floated in front of him.
This stunned him, who did not believe in ghosts at all.
As the saying goes, what one hears may be false, but what one sees is true. At that moment, he suddenly felt that this thing existed.
He did not believe it because he could not see.
Afraid that she would scare him silly, Lu Sheng hurriedly took out the talisman and kept the black souls away.
“You should believe me now, right?”
She raised an eyebrow and asked Chu Sihan, who was still silent.
Chu Sihan’s eyeballs moved and he stared at her for a long time. With a calm expression, he asked, “How do you know these?”
“I learned it from my master!” Lu Sheng said with a smile.
“Your master… is the State Minister?”
He could not think of anyone else in Xuan Yue Country who possessed such capabilities other than the State Minister.
