Zhao Ci's wife lay quietly on the bed, seemingly not reacting to the arrival of the three people.

It wasn't until Zhao Ci stepped forward and patted her shoulder that she woke up.

"Xiaowan, the master is here..."

Xiaowan opened her eyes tiredly, glanced at Ruan Xia in front of her, and tried her best to sit up from the bed.

However, her belly was heavy and big. Even with Zhao Ci's help, she could only lean on the pillow diagonally, and a thin layer of sweat broke out on her forehead in just a few strokes.

She looked at Ruan Xia nervously, stroking her belly gently with both hands, with a worried look on her face, "Master, our child..."

As she was talking, she felt a sharp pain in her stomach, and she frowned, feeling very painful.

Seeing this, Ruan Xia reached out and pressed her belly gently.

Soon, the pain gradually dissipated, and Xiaowan's brows relaxed.

However, she was so tortured that she could no longer speak.

Seeing his wife in such pain, Zhao Ci's face was filled with distress.

He patted Xiaowan's hand and spoke slowly, telling the strange things that happened during this period.

He and Xiaowan got married a year ago, and half a year later they had the fruit of their love.

At first, everything works fine.

But as time goes by, Xiaowan's belly gets bigger and bigger, even scary.

They also went to the doctor, but nothing abnormal could be seen from the B-ultrasound.

They also thought it was caused by overnutrition during pregnancy.

The real weirdness started a few days ago...

Because her belly is getting bigger and bigger, Xiaowan has difficulty moving, so she stays in bed almost day and night.

As time went by, my mood began to slump, and I would even sleep all day long. Zhao Ci was worried about Xiaowan's health and stayed by his side almost day and night.

But a few days ago, Xiaowan suddenly started having nightmares. She dreamed of a bloody baby lying on her flat belly, looking up at her with a strange expression.

The surrounding area seemed to have been crawled by it, and there were bloody fingerprints everywhere.

She woke up from nightmares again and again, looking at her huge belly and starting to feel scared for no reason.

She told Zhao Ci about this thing that she dreamed about almost every night, and he immediately thought of Yuan Ruan Xia.

After much thought, although it was a bit embarrassing, for the sake of his wife and children, he decided to lower his head and ask Mo Tingye to bring Ruan Xia.

After listening to Zhao Ci's words, Ruan Xia pondered for a moment and then spoke decisively.

"What's in your belly is not your child at all, but a resentful spirit."

Hearing this, Xiaowan, who was originally very quiet, suddenly became emotional, "How is that possible!"

Zhao Ci also stared blankly at his stomach with a look of disbelief.

He subconsciously raised his head and looked at Ruan Xia angrily.

"I knew you were a charlatan. If I had known better, I wouldn't have asked you to come!"

"Our child is so healthy, how can he be a wraith!"

Ruan Xia chose to ignore Zhao Ci's anger.

She stared straight into Xiaowan's eyes and spoke slowly.

"Whether it is a wraith or not, I think a mother can feel it more intuitively."

After hearing this, Xiaowan was silent for a long time.

She looked up again, her face already covered with tears, "What should I do, Master!"

It's not that she hasn't been looking forward to the arrival of this child, but as her belly gets bigger and bigger, she always feels as if she is not the child's mother, but just a container.

Once the child is born, she will die soon.

Moreover, the dream she had been having during this period made her feel that all this was not a fantasy. The eyes of the resentful spirit in the dream were so terrifying that just thinking about it made her tremble all over.

Zhao Ci didn't expect his wife to confirm directly. He looked at his wife with tears on her face in shock. After a long time, he looked up again with firm eyes.

"Master, what should we do?"

Ruan Xia pursed her lips, took out a piece of talisman and stuck it on Xiaowan's belly.

Suddenly, Xiaowan felt her stomach relax, and the pressure seemed to disappear immediately.

She looked at Ruan Xia in shock and slowly sat up from the bed.

"If you want to deal with the resentful spirit in your belly, I'm afraid you have to show me the statues of gods you worship first."

One sentence immediately made Zhao Ci's face turn pale.

He didn't seem to want to mention it.

Seeing this, Ruan Xia said coldly, "Do you really think that the statue is a good thing? If you don't take me to see it, your whole family will die at the hands of the resentful spirit!"

After saying that, she stood quietly aside, waiting for the two of them to make a decision.

After listening to Ruan Xia's words, Zhao Ci frowned, seeming to be thinking about the truth or falsehood of her words.

However, Xiaowan tugged on his sleeves with a pleading look on his face.

Looking at Xiaowan's pale face, Zhao Ci made up his mind and nodded, "Let's go!"

As he spoke, he gently supported Xiaowan and walked in front, leading the way for the two of them.

All the way to the third floor, a few people walked to a small room at the end.

The door to the room in front of him was locked. Even so, Ruan Xia could feel the strong Yin energy seeping out from the crack in the door.

It seems that the yin energy of the whole house comes from here.

Zhao Ci took out the key and opened the door.

The moment it was opened, a strong yin energy rushed out of the room and attacked Ruan Xia's face.

Ruan Xia took a step back, smiled disdainfully, and took out the charm.

"The sky and the earth are dark and yellow, please ask the gods to drive away the evil and destroy it!"

She threw the talisman into the air fiercely. The next second, the talisman burned and the Yin energy dissipated automatically.

Then she walked in.

Zhao Ci supported Xiaowan and followed Ruan Xia into the room. This time, he didn't feel the same oppression and inability to breathe as usual.

He looked at Ruan Xia with some surprise. Even though he only saw Ruan Xia throwing the charm into the air just now, he could guess that the feeling of oppression disappeared because of her.

"It's this statue." Ruan Xia spoke slowly, but did not come closer.

The resentful spirit is still among the statues. If she approaches rashly, she will definitely start a fight.

When the Yin Qi hurts Xiaowan on the side, the gain outweighs the loss.

"Where did you get this idol?"

Hearing Ruan Xia's words, Zhao Ci replied respectfully, “I went abroad to ask for this before. They said there is a baby spirit in it, which can bless our family's wealth and prosperity."

After saying that, I thought that it was indeed easier for him to do business in these years than before, so I couldn't help but test it out.

"You're not going to take it away, are you? After it came to our house, my fortune was indeed better than before."

Ruan Xia snorted coldly. She always knew that people are greedy, so she explained patiently.

"If you continue to let it here, sooner or later its resentment will harm everyone around you, including you."

One sentence made Zhao Ci's face turn pale instantly.

He didn't expect the consequences to be so serious.

"This is not an infant spirit at all, but a sealed resentful spirit."

"Here is a baby who died at birth. He could have been reincarnated, but he was bound by a god's statue to attract wealth for you."

"The baby that died in infancy is very resentful. Now that it cannot be reincarnated and sees you living a happy life, it must be resentful."

"If it hadn't been a resentful spirit for a short time, you and Xiaowan would have died at home long ago!"

When Xiaowan and Zhao Ci heard this, their bodies softened and they immediately collapsed on the ground.

It was Zhao Ci who spoke first, "Then what should we do?"
