Chapter 204: The Earth Soul Bound by the Heart Knot
"Your mother's background is a mystery, but it is certain that she has brothers and sisters. It seems that your mother was kicked out of the house for some reason in her early years, and she has been out of touch with the family ever since. When your father married your mother, your mother was already a widow. She never told me her background when asked, and I only know that she has family members."
It was lunchtime, and the little monk invited them to eat: "Let's eat first and try the vegetarian food from Zhongnan Mountain."
This temple is very small, with only one abbot, a young monk who rings the bell, and a chef who prepares vegetarian meals.
The vegetarian meals in the temple are very simple, but the light porridge and side dishes somehow suit Shen Xia Xia's current appetite.
You know, she was a meat lover some time ago, and all the egret chickens were almost slaughtered.
Shen Xiaxia showed off tens of thousands of dollars in a row, and Master Xuanyi stopped her: "Eating too much will hurt your stomach."
Shen Xia Xia was indeed a little full, so she could only sit and watch Lu Jingchen and Master Xuanyi eat.
Lu Jingchen put a mouthful of pickled vegetables into his mouth: "You said that the entire Lu family is part of the contract? What did the Lu family exchange for what?"
Master Xuanyi raised his chopsticks in his hand and raised his cloudy eyes slightly: "My descendants will be endless."
"You mean, all generations of the Lu family have been signed into the contract." Lu Jingchen's eyes darkened slightly: "Who signed the contract with the Lu family?"
Master Xuanyi shook his head: "There is no definite evidence, but I suspect that it is more likely that it was Old Lady Lu. The Lu family's destiny is not a destiny of wealth and honor. Logically, they should be in a state of poverty and destitution, but the Lu family changed their destiny against the will of heaven and directly changed from a poor destiny to a wealthy destiny. Their descendants even produced an emperor like Lu Jingchen. This major change must have been made at the cost of great sacrifice."
Shen Xia Xia questioned: "But the Lu family had already started when Grandpa was alive."
"Is it possible that when Old Lady Lu first married into the family, she had already started to change her fate? Old Lady Lu is not an ordinary person. You should already know this."
Shen Xia Xia couldn't help but admire him: "You live in seclusion in this deep mountain forest, but you know everything about the world. You pay so much attention to these things, which also shows that there are people or things in the world that you care about."
"Are you worried about me?"
Master Xuanyi: "It is not surprising that monks are compassionate and care about the people of the world."
Lu Jingchen continued to ask: "Then what do the descendants of the Lu family need as a bargaining chip?"
Master Xuanyi took a sip of tea and said, "I'll have to ask your Lu family. This is a contract signed by your Lu family. How could others know about it?"
Master Xuanyi caught sight of the fetal spirit beside Shen Xiaxia from the corner of his eye: "This little guy looks familiar, have we seen him somewhere before?"
The fetal spirit hid timidly behind Shen Xia Xia and shook his head.
Shen Xia Xia protected the fetus' spirit: "You must have recognized the wrong child. This is the child I found in the West Mountain. It has gone through six reincarnations and reincarnated to me. It has completely forgotten everything in its previous life."
Master Xuanyi warned: "Better safe than sorry, Xia Xia, you should be more careful in everything."
Shen Xia Xia's cell phone rang. Her social circle was very small, and most of her contacts were with the underworld. Not many people knew her cell phone number.
As expected, you are Song Yaqian.
Song Yaqian was very anxious: "Xia Xia, where are you? I went to the metaphysics studio to look for you, but I didn't see you."
"I'm in Zhongnan Mountain. What can I do for you?"
"Something happened to my new house. Can you come and help me take a look? It's pretty creepy. By the way, let's get together. We haven't talked together for a long time."
"Okay, send me the address and I'll be there soon." Shen Xia Xia hung up the phone. For her, it was just a matter of taking one more look. It was a good opportunity to visit an old friend.
"Grandpa, I have something to do and I'll leave first. I'll come to see you next time when I have time."
After dinner, Shen Xia Xia prepared to leave using the ferry door, and Lu Jingchen would also go to Mingyi Technology to handle work matters.
Shen Xia Xia appeared in the metaphysics studio, and Song Yaqian was already waiting for her there.
"Xia Xia, I finally see you. I missed you so much after not seeing you for a long time." Song Yaqian put her arm around Shen Xia Xia's shoulders.
Shen Xia Xia smiled and scratched her nose: "Why, what happened to your newly bought house?"
"Have you moved out of the Qin family now? Why?" Shen Xia Xia suddenly thought of something: "Did Qin Ming bully you? I'm going to teach him a lesson."
The secretion of hormones during pregnancy is indeed more vigorous, and Shen Xia Xia doesn't indulge anyone now.
Song Yaqian held her back: "It has nothing to do with the Qin family. I just wanted to move out."
"why?"
"I have also adopted Nana. Qin Ming and I are already a family of three. It's not appropriate for a large family to live together all the time, so I want to move out and live on my own so I can be more free."
Shen Xia Xia was puzzled: "The Qin family villa is so big, and the Qin family's parents are also very open-minded and never interfere in your affairs. Besides, the Qin family only has one son, Qin Ming, so where would so many people come from?"
Song Yaqian explained: "Anyway, I feel more free living on my own. Don't you want to move out of the Lu family? I heard from Feifei that you have been living with your master for some time."
Shen Xia Xia ate a cookie and said, "As long as you are happy, where is the house? Take me to see it."
Song Yaqian told the address of the house. Shen Xiaxia packed up her things and used the ferry door to appear in her new villa with Song Yaqian.
Song Yaqian’s new villa is a small villa, just right for a family of three.
This villa is very retro and shows signs of age. It would be difficult to buy it now even if you have money.
The three of them have already moved in, and Qin Ming is helping Nana with her homework.
Everything is very peaceful.
The lighting in the villa is also very good, and the feng shui in front and back is also fine. Shen Xiaxia looked around the house and said, "There's nothing wrong here. Maybe you're just being suspicious and overthinking."
Song Yaqian said firmly: "There is something wrong with this house. If you don't believe me, you can ask Nana and Qin Ming. They have seen it too."
Song Yaqian called Nana and Qin Ming.
Qin Ming pointed in the direction of the kitchen: "Around seven o'clock every evening, a doctor and a nurse will appear here. They perform surgery here, and then they disappear."
Nana also nodded: "Really, Aunt Xia Xia, I have seen it several times. The doctor uncle would cry every time after the operation, and then the nurse aunt would comfort him, and then the two of them would disappear."
The three members of the family all saw it, which means that Song Yaqian was not just seeing the flowers.
Shen Xia Xia carefully measured it with a ruler: "Strange, I really didn't find any evil things, not even a trace of smell."
Song Yaqian tried to persuade Shen Xia Xia to stay: "Xia Xia, stay here for dinner today. You can see them when they appear again at 7 o'clock in the evening."
Shen Xia Xia nodded: "I'm hungry, why don't we start from lunch."
Song Yaqian frowned: "Xia Xia, are you okay? Why do you always seem hungry? Every time I see you, you're either eating or on your way to eat."
Shen Xia Xia's appetite was indeed ridiculously good. The closer she got to the late stage of pregnancy, the better her appetite became, and she drank the drinks that Lu Jingchen gave her more and more frequently.
Despite this, Shen Xia Xia's body is still thin and she only has a belly.
Shen Xia Xia tried her best to cover it up, but it was still visible as she was already seven months pregnant.
Song Yaqian glanced at Shen Xiaxia's belly: "You must be pregnant."
Seeing that she could no longer hide it, Shen Xia Xia made a "hush" gesture: "Don't say anything."
Song Yaqian was puzzled: "Being pregnant is a good thing. Mrs. Lu will be so happy if she knows. Why are you acting like a thief?"
"Ah! No way," Song Yaqian widened her eyes, "Could it be that the child is not Lu Jingchen's? I can't tell, Xia Xia, you played well."
"What nonsense are you talking about? The fortune teller just said that my fetus is weak and I can't let anyone know, otherwise it will affect the fetal spirit." Shen Xia Xia could only take the blame for the fetal spirit.
Knowing that Xia Xia was pregnant, Song Yaqian specially asked the nanny to prepare a table full of fish, meat and supplements.
Shen Xiaxia ate with gusto. Song Yaqian couldn't help but said distressedly: "The Lu family treated you badly. Why do you look like you escaped from the Gaza refugee camp?"
Shen Xia Xia said as she ate: "The best thing I ate in the Daoguan Temple was the Luhua chicken. Besides the Luhua chicken, there were also porridge and side dishes. I haven't eaten such a good meal in a long time."
Song Yaqian picked up some food for her and scolded her, "Eat slowly. Why are you going to the mountains to suffer when you are pregnant?"
Shen Xia Xia wolfed down the meal, eating the amount that a family of three could eat by themselves, which left them dumbfounded.
Just an hour later, Shen Xia Xia was hungry again, and it seemed as if the food she had just eaten had not been eaten.
The body develops a crazy craving for blood.
Would a pregnant woman really get hungry so quickly? Shen Xiaxia was worried.
No pregnant woman would crave blood, right? She was pregnant with...
This was the first time Shen Xia Xia doubted the baby in her belly.
After lunch and dinner, Song Yaqian asked someone to prepare a table of snacks and fruits for Shen Xia Xia. The family sat on the sofa watching TV, waiting for the strange scene to appear.
Shen Xiaxia was absorbed in watching the movie when Nana suddenly called out in a low voice, her eyes full of fear: "That weird uncle is coming out."
Shen Xia Xia put down the popcorn in her hand and looked in the direction of Nana's finger.
A man in a white coat who looked like a doctor walked out from the bathroom and headed towards the kitchen.
A lot of surgical tools suddenly appeared in the kitchen, and a patient was lying on the operating table, being prepared for surgery.
The man who looked like a doctor started the tense operation with a scalpel, while the nurse wiped his sweat.
Suddenly, the electrocardiogram on the instrument next to him turned into a straight line.
"Beep, beep, beep..." The desperate sound of the instrument announced the death of the patient on the bed.
The doctor collapsed instantly, slumped to the ground, and fell into deep self-blame.
The nurse nearby hurried over to comfort him, and after a while, the nurse helped the doctor leave.
Everything here disappeared in an instant, and the kitchen returned to its original appearance. The whole process did not have any evil atmosphere, it was very natural.
It was like a movie was being shown.
Song Yaqian was still in shock: "See, they show up on time at 7 o'clock every night and leave on time."
Qin Ming: "We have thought about leaving here, but it is difficult to find such a desirable house. Both the location and the surrounding environment are excellent. Moreover, Yaqian likes the retro style of this villa very much. It is difficult to buy a similar one. Moreover, although they come every day, they have never hurt us. They leave after performing their surgery, as if they did not see us."
The environment and feng shui around this small villa are really good.
Shen Xia Xia: "People have three souls and seven spirits. After death, the soul returns home. This doctor's soul is obsessed, so he is trapped in the same place, and he replays what happened before his death every day."
"According to the image just now, he should have caused the accidental death of a patient during an operation. He fell into deep self-blame, which became an obsession in his heart. He replayed the scene before his death every day. The ghost on the bed should be the patient he accidentally killed."
"Heart disease needs to be treated with heart medicine. If you want to save them, you have to untie their heart knots."
Song Yaqian: "I asked the real estate agent. This villa used to belong to a doctor. Later, the doctor died of a heart attack after performing an operation, leaving the house vacant. The family encountered financial problems some time ago, so they thought of selling it."
Shen Xia Xia: "Can you ask your landlord's doctor's name?"
"Sure." Qin Ming called the landlord and said, "Auntie, there is something wrong with the villa you sold me. A doctor and a nurse in white coats appear every night."
The villa was originally sold at a price much lower than the market price.
Song Yaqian and Qin Ming have always been embarrassed to disturb the landlord.
The landlord on the other end of the phone said, "It's okay. That's my dead husband. Although he comes back every day, he won't do anything to hurt anyone. You can live here without worry."
Shen Xiaxia motioned Qin Ming to give her the phone: "Auntie, we are not scared, but your husband seems to have some unfulfilled wishes, so he has been trapped here and cannot leave. Can you tell me what happened before he died? Maybe I can help him to transcend."
Hearing that it could be saved, the landlord sighed and said, "My husband is such a good doctor. Back then, a man was shot in the heart and was rushed to the hospital for emergency treatment. My husband happened to be the attending physician for the operation."
"My husband's mistake caused the patient to bleed profusely, faint and lose vital signs. My husband thought it was his own mistake that killed the patient, and he fell into deep self-blame and eventually died of a heart attack in the hospital corridor."
Shen Xia Xia asked: "What about this nurse?"
Landlord: "I don't know either, but she has been following my husband since he appeared. Maybe she is a ghost with the same obsession and they are like-minded. No one in the hospital has died. It would be great if you can find the reason."
"In fact, the patient did not die at the time. After my husband had a heart attack, another doctor took over his surgery and saved the patient."
"But my husband's heart beat violently because of self-blame, and he died of a heart attack."
"He has spent his entire life saving lives and healing the wounded. He can't bear to see any patient die, let alone because of his own mistakes. He blames himself and suffers, trapping himself in the same place and refusing to leave."
"But don't worry, I asked someone to check it out. There is no evil spirit or anything like that here. It's just a trace of soul and obsession left by my husband."
