Chapter 89 - Master Chi, You Cant Leave Someone to Die!

Chi Shuyan frowned. She felt a gloomy and cold gaze like a snake slithering over her back which made her twitchy. It wasn’t until they got in the car that the feeling disappeared.

“Did you say you need help?” Chi Shuyan asked. “Your complexion looks pretty good; it doesn’t look like you’re in trouble.”

“It’s not me. It’s my aunt’s son, who is also my cousin. He was supposed to be getting married during this period, but my cousin’s girlfriend insisted on going to the amusement park. In the end, he was frightened by a worker at the haunted house and fainted. He collapsed and has yet to wake up. The hospital examined him for a long time, and can only conclude that my cousin is in a coma,” Yang Hongsheng quickly explained.

“My cousin is my Third Aunt and her husband’s only son. We’ve hired many experts both local and from abroad, but they still haven’t found anything.” Yang Hongsheng sighed.

“In a coma? Wait, Young Master Yang, are you mistaken? I’m a Celestial Master, not a doctor. Shouldn’t you be looking for a doctor now that he’s in a coma? It’s not like I know how to treat illnesses.” Chi Shuyan spread her hands and pointed at a bus stop up ahead. “It looks like I can’t help you. Stop at the bus stop in front.”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Yang Hongsheng slammed on the brake at the traffic light and panicked when he heard that Chi Shuyan refused to help. If they weren’t in the car, he would have hugged her thigh. He quickly turned his head and wailed pleadingly, “Master Chi, don’t be like this. You can’t leave him to die. My cousin is my aunt and uncle’s only lifeline. Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. Master Chi, you can’t leave him to die. If you refuse to help, my cousin is finished.”

Chi Shuyan had a bad premonition when Yang Hongsheng turned his head. Looking at Yang Hongsheng howling, the corners of her mouth twitched and she facepalmed. “Stop howling, I’ll go. But let me say this first: If your cousin is just sick, then I can’t be of any help.”

“Master Chi, I knew you wouldn’t leave me in the lurch.” Yang Hongsheng wiped the nonexistent tears from the corners of his eyes and beamed in the next second. “Don’t worry, you’ll definitely be able to help this time.”

“Why do you have so much confidence in me?” Chi Shuyan didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

“Do you still remember how I fought with Yeran a few days ago to buy talismans and magic weapons from your Taobao shop? I gave one to my mother and she scolded me. Later, my father found out that I bought a lot of your talismans and scolded me for being a wastrel and engaging in feudal superstitions, and beat me up again.” Yang Hongsheng felt bitter just thinking about those days. “My father even burned almost all the talismans I bought.”

Yang Hongsheng’s heart throbbed in pain when he thought of how those talismans had suffered at his father’s hands.

“My parents felt that you tricked me and brainwashed me, so they almost sued your shop.” Yang Hongsheng was a bit embarrassed at this point. “I defended myself desperately to them. They no longer planned to sue, but when they saw how hopeless I was, they froze my allowance.”

“Huh? Then won’t I be kicked out if I go to your Third Aunt’s house?” Chi Shuyan was a bit worried.

“No, of course not.” Yang Hongsheng seemed afraid that Chi Shuyan would turn around, and immediately said, “My mother saw how miserable I was, and since I was being filial to her, she carried the talisman on her.

“She then met my Third Aunt and couldn’t stand seeing her cry all day long. Using the excuse I gave her, she claimed that the talisman was blessed by a Master, just so that my aunt could have some hope. She didn’t expect my aunt to instantly bring the talisman to my cousin. Once it was placed on him, heh, it really was useful. The golden lines on the Peace Talisman turned black and it turned into powder. My cousin woke up too, but he lost consciousness again soon after.”

Yang Hongsheng was also stirred up when he said this. He slapped his thigh fiercely. “You didn’t see how excited my aunt was at that time. She straightaway took away the other two talismans that I had risked my life to protect.”

Yang Hongsheng raised his head and heaved a sigh of relief. He chuckled and proudly recalled his parents’ stunned faces when they heard the news. He did say he had good taste.

Originally, his parents didn’t believe him and thought that their son had been cheated by a charlatan and was spending money recklessly. Who would have thought that this talisman was really useful; his father’s pained and reluctant expression in particular was still fresh in Yang Hongsheng’s mind.

“Since this talisman was of some use to your cousin, it seems that he isn’t just sick,” Chi Shuyan said lightly.
