Chapter 498

~8 min read 1,496 words

After Zhang Jiusheng died.

Yu Rang disappeared silently, not knowing when.

It seems he did not intend to discuss the matter of Zhang Jiusheng with Wu Xian and the others.

Additionally, before Zhang Jiusheng died, Yu Rang asked for the name of the Lotus Juanren who had used the Immortal Talisman without authorization. Perhaps something would happen to that person later, or perhaps nothing would happen at all.

The abandoned building's signal was restored, and the people from the Chenghuangsuo found this place. At Wu Xian's request, these corpses would be cremated and buried together.

It is worth mentioning.

The employees of the Chenghuangsuo found the car wheels that Wu Xian and the others had lost in the building, causing Wu Xian to lose the chance to get free replacements.

There was still a lot of cleanup work to do.

But Wu Xian and Shi Ji were truly too tired.

They had just been subjected to torture and then went through such an ordeal; their spirits were already strained and exhausted. They had no mind to handle any affairs, so they hailed a taxi and rushed back to Wu Xian's house.

At the villa entrance.

Hei Gu was baring her teeth, her eyes fierce.

Fatty Pei Dasen stood side by side with Hei Gu, trying hard to show the ferocity of a wild beast.

Usually, when Wu Xian went to a Fudi, Hei Gu was very worried.

But this time Wu Xian went for a trip, to enjoy himself, and Hei Gu couldn't follow to enjoy it, so she was extremely unhappy.

What made her even more unhappy was that Wu Xian not only went on a trip but also came home late, and the food she had prepared had gone cold, which made her even angrier.

When Wu Xian got home, she was going to bite him on the butt ten times, no matter what!

If his attitude in admitting his mistake was good and he was willing to take her to the amusement park, then she would just bite him lightly once.

But when Hei Gu saw the extremely exhausted expression on Wu Xian's face after he got out of the car, the dissatisfaction in her heart vanished instantly, and she even felt a bit of heartache.

Wu Xian had never shown such an expression when returning from any previous trip.

"Awoo... woo!"

Fatty Pei Dasen roared angrily at Wu Xian according to the previous rehearsal, but he was swatted away by Hei Gu with a paw as soon as he made a sound.

After crawling up from the ground, Fatty Pei Dasen walked to the corner and buried his head in his little white paws, sulking.

Wu Xian didn't pay attention to the pets' little drama.

He arranged a guest room for Shi Ji and returned to his own room. He suddenly felt infinite exhaustion surging over him; the world spun before his eyes, and he collapsed onto the bed and fell into a deep sleep.

After leaving the Jin Mu Building.

Wu Xian was able to remain calm and composed when facing the bizarre taxi and the Malevolent Entity.

But that didn't mean he had forgotten the experience at the Jin Mu Building; it was just because he could distinguish between what was urgent and what was not, and had extremely strong emotional control.

But when he returned home and finally reached a safe place, he relaxed completely. The scenes of dying eighteen times appeared in his dreams one after another, each time startling him awake. Even though he had been sleeping the whole time, he was still exhausted.

Wu Xian hid in his room like this for two days.

It wasn't until the third day that he crawled out of the room, looking haggard.

When Hei Gu saw Wu Xian come out, she barked excitedly and hurriedly brought out a bowl of steaming millet porridge.

Wu Xian had been hungry for two days, and his stomach was growling. After finishing the bowl of millet porridge, his strength returned, as if he had been reborn.

He hugged Hei Gu and Fatty Pei Dasen, rubbing their cat and dog heads, and his mood gradually recovered.

Just at this moment.

Shi Ji walked out of the guest room with dark circles under his eyes; his state actually looked much better than Wu Xian's.

But Wu Xian didn't envy him at all; it was normal for Shi Ji to have an extremely resilient spirit, as he dealt with those kinds of things every day.

"It smells so good. I'm starving too; could you serve me a bowl?"

This wasn't Shi Ji's first time as a guest at Wu Xian's house, so he had long known Hei Gu's secret, and he didn't dislike Hei Gu at all.

Hei Gu climbed up very dissatisfied, took a bowl of white porridge cooked yesterday from the refrigerator, and shoved it into the microwave.

Shi Ji smiled awkwardly...

After that, another two days passed.

Liao Yifang found her way to Wu Xian's house and had a heart-to-heart talk with Shi Ji. The next morning, the two of them left Wu Xian's house holding hands.

They ultimately gave up on getting married, but their relationship was a step closer than before. They planned to find a good place to buy a house, live together for a while, and then consider future matters.

After the two of them left, Wu Xian turned to look at Hei Gu, took a deep breath, and shouted.

"Let's go out and play!!"

Hei Gu's tail stood up immediately.

Over the next few days, Wu Xian took the cat and dog to a farmhouse near Fuyuan City.

They enjoyed the pastoral life to the fullest. Hei Gu and Fatty Pei Dasen went crazy in the rural environment; the two little ones became the overlords of the local animal world, and even the water buffaloes submitted under the cat's claws.

Wu Xian enjoyed the tranquility of the countryside to his heart's content.

After several days of playing, the experience was excellent. They weren't scammed, didn't encounter bad people, and there were no rural supernatural events for them to deal with.

They were just like ordinary tourists, playing in an ordinary way.

The trip ended.

Wu Xian still felt that his mental state was not very good.

So he ultimately went to the Rebirth Mental Clinic recommended by Yu Rang. This clinic was in a remote location and not very large, but the decoration clearly showed effort. As soon as Wu Xian stepped inside, he relaxed subconsciously.

There were several doctors in total.

One of them was Xu Bailian, who had entered the Bliss City with Wu Xian.

Wu Xian read the information about these doctors, judged their professionalism from between the lines, and finally chose a female doctor with glasses who had a broad mind and high attractiveness.

Her name was Mei Miaoyin.

Pushing open the door.

The female doctor turned her chair around and gave Wu Xian a bright smile.

Wu Xian's cheeks flushed slightly, and he lowered his head shyly: "Hello, I am Wu Xian, I was introduced by Yu Rang..."

Mei Miaoyin waved at Wu Xian: "You're here, brother, why are you still standing there? Come over here and sit down, tell sister, what have you encountered recently?"

Wu Xian's expression was stunned.

The thick, rustic accent that hit him made him feel a sense of disillusionment with life.

But since he was already here, it wasn't easy for him to change doctors.

"It's like this, I've been having nightmares recently, because..."

For the next period of time, Wu Xian received multiple treatments from Dr. Mei.

Although her accent was strange, strangely enough, every time it made Wu Xian calm down quickly and be drawn into her rhythm.

Every treatment from Dr. Mei was equivalent to giving Wu Xian a strong psychological suggestion.

Wu Xian gradually forgot the details of those eighteen deaths. Without remembering the details, he naturally wouldn't have nightmares whenever he thought about them.

The problem of subconsciously ignoring his own life was also cured by her.

But after several treatments.

Wu Xian began to feel a bit troubled.

Her treatment effect was a bit too good, to the point that his spirit, which had become somewhat numb due to frequently seeing malevolent entities, had revived, and his ability to withstand fear had decreased.

But Dr. Mei said it this way.

Fear is not a bad thing; danger and fear are often a pair. Becoming numb to fear means becoming numb to danger.

Many capable Lotus Juanren have fallen into traps they could have easily handled because they became numb to fear.

Therefore, being able to feel fear is a good thing! Just like that, time passed bit by bit.

Wu Xian finished a course of five psychological treatments.

He had already rested for a long enough time; it was time to find another Fudi and restore his state!
