BXBX NOVEL Chapter 113
” So, where is she?” Liu Hui Ying asked as she turned to look at Zhai Chenguang and hitched one of her brows up, surely she found out where the ghost of this woman was, this was why she came to look for her right?
However, her hopes once again were set ablaze as Zhai Chenguang kneeled in front of her and said, ” Forgive me, I couldn’t find her even after looking for so long, it’s as if she has deliberately hidden herself away or maybe she might have just moved on to the next–”
She didn’t even finish when Liu Hui Ying banged her fist on the table and then snarled, ” So are you by any chance trying to say that I am stuck here forever? I hope you are not saying that because then I will get really mad.”
Zhai Chenguang immediately turned silent as she carefully thought over what she was going to say, at first she wanted to tell Liu Hui Ying to stop looking for the ghost of this woman whom she was searching for but seeing how desperately she wanted to escape from this world, Zhai Chenguang pursed her lips and changed the topic, ” I know that I can not find the soul of this woman since she does not want to be found out, which is why I am asking you to help me in exchange of something else.”
” You have something that you can also exchange?” Liu Hui Ying looked at Zhai Chenguang as far as she knew a ghost should not have anything that they could hand out to anyone else after all a person who died would have his or her property shared between their loved ones, for Zhai Chenguang to still have something that she can exchange was really a surprise for her.
” I do,” Zhai Chenguang nodded as she carefully thought over what she wanted to say and then closed her eyes and continued speaking, ” Before I died, my mother, she gifted me a mine ...its a gold mine, something that should never fall in the hands of the Liu family which was why I was hesitating to hand over to you or not. But now that I think about it, you wouldn’t hand that mine to the Liu family either which is why I am willing to have you take over it with the papers and everything attached to it as long as you help me out.”
She opened her webbed eyes and then looked at Liu Hui Ying before continuing, ” The gold mine is not something useless either, as long as you are willing, you will be able to make good use of it as well.”
Liu Hui Ying didn’t say anything instead she carefully pondered over what Zhai Chenguang was saying, seeing her think so carefully like that, Zhai Chenguang thought that she was still hesitating, so she hurriedly said, ” Don’t look down on the value of gold as long as you know how to make use of it you will be able to get a lot of money and more importantly the mountain where the mine is located is also full of lush herbs and a bunch of things that can be useful for alchemy if you want then you can use them as well.”
.....
Only then Liu Hui Ying raised her head and looked at Zhai Chenguang before straightening her spine and saying, ” And you are going to hand that to me as long as I help you without any attachments?”
At her question, Zhai Chenguang smiled mockingly as she answered, ” Of course, I have been in this world for so long even if I am angry that I have to part with the gift that my mother handed over to me, I have long reached the understanding where I know that it is of no importance to me even if I cling onto it, it wouldn’t be like I will be able to use it. It is useless to me, so clinging onto it would be pointless.”
Liu Hui Ying noticed the sincerity in Zhai Chenguang’s voice and knew that she was speaking the truth, she closed her eyes and then sighed heavily. ” Very well, if this is what you want then I will help you but...”
Just as Zhai Chenguang was going to smile in delight, she heard Liu Hui Ying’s but and then immediately paused as she looked at Liu Hui Ying with a wary and confused expression. ” But?” She handed everything that she could to Liu Hui Ying but the latter was still refusing why?
” Don’t mistake it for my refusal,” seeing the helpless expression on the face of Zhai Chenguang, Liu Hui Ying raised her hand and added in a hurry. ” I am not refusing nor am I saying that I will not help you but the thing is that you need to understand that even if I want to help you, I am bounded by the law of the celestial masters. If I want to disrupt the course of your existence then I will need a channel and that channel can only be a human, you understand that right?”
From the bewildered look on Zhai Chenguang’s expression, it was clear that she did not understand what she was saying so for the sake of her convenience, Liu Hui Ying immediately made it simple for her. “It’s like this if a ghost is to be exorcised then it will have to make disruption in the world of the humans only then a celestial master will harm it, similarly if a ghost wants the help of a human celestial master then it will have to ask it through the medium of a human that is to say someone has to come and ask for help instead of you .”
