Living Funeral
As those words fell, I was instantly taken aback, a gut feeling telling me that something terrible was about to happen.
What exactly is a Yin Fetus? I quickly found a term in my mind; perhaps describing it as a Ghost Fetus would be more accurate.
Yue's Parents were momentarily stunned for a few seconds after hearing this, and then Yue's Mother asked in a tentative yet nervous tone, "Master, what is a Yin Fetus?"
Gao Qing sighed and slowly stood up, saying, "It’s the child of your daughter and Chen Jian."
Upon hearing this, Yue's Mother immediately questioned the meaning of the Master’s words. She seemed somewhat unwilling to believe it.
Gao Ling bluntly stated, "It means your daughter is going to have a child with a ghost."
At this point, Yue's Mother fell silent, unable to catch her breath, and fainted.
Uncle Cao was also extremely anxious and shouted angrily, "Are you crazy? What’s wrong with your head? How can she have a child with a ghost!" His anger escalated to the point where he looked ready to strike someone.
In the midst of this chaos, Yu was panicking as well, calling out for his mother but receiving no response.
I grabbed Uncle Cao, as the scene became increasingly chaotic.
With tears in his voice, Yu called out for his mother. Seeing no reaction, he urgently turned to the aunt and said, "Quick, get the medicine!"
At this moment, Gao Qing told Uncle Cao, "Stop! Even if you beat her to death, it won’t help."
Uncle Cao slowly lowered his raised hand and then plopped down onto the sofa, lamenting, "What kind of misfortune have I brought upon myself?"
After taking her medication, Yue's Mother regained her composure and looked at me with a weary gaze. "Can you help me get Mom to her room?" she asked.
I nodded and assisted Yue in supporting her mother.
At that moment, Yue's Mother seemed very weak, unable to speak, yet she still pushed Yue away.
Yue stepped forward to help, tears already brimming in her eyes. "Mom, it's my fault, but please let me take you to your room."
However, Yue's Mother pushed her away again. At that moment, Yue looked like a neglected child, and it was heart-wrenching to see.
An aunt came over to support Yue's Mother and said to Yue, "You should sit down and rest. I'll take care of your mother; you don't need to worry."
After the aunt and I helped Yue's Mother to her room, the aunt told me, "You can go now."
I nodded and left.
Yue was still standing there. After I went downstairs, I said to her, "Don't be too upset. Your mother still loves you; otherwise, she wouldn't be so angry."
Yue asked me how her mother was doing. I reassured her that with the aunt taking care of her, there shouldn't be any problems.
Gao Qing was still comforting Uncle Cao.
I said to Yue, "Stop standing around. Let's figure out how to resolve this situation."
Yue nodded and then asked me if I could make sure that woman wouldn't hurt Jian.
I was momentarily speechless. Even at this point, Yue still wanted to protect Jian. Was it true that women really lost their minds when they fell in love?
I glanced at Yu and shook my head. Humans and ghosts were destined to be on different paths; it was ultimately impossible for them to be together.
However, the situation had become more complicated since Yu was now pregnant with Jian's child. Earning money wouldn't be easy!
After I rejected her, Yu's eyes welled up with tears again, looking quite aggrieved.
I had nothing more to say, so I walked over to Gao Ling and the others.
Yu followed me.
Once the five of us sat down, Uncle Cao looked at Yu, but she didn't dare meet his gaze. She resembled a child who had done something wrong, keeping her head down.
Uncle Cao took a deep breath and said, "Master, what should we do now?" His brows were furrowed in worry, looking helpless. No matter how things developed, Yu was still his daughter!
Gao Qing thought for a moment and said, "Let her give birth."
At this statement, Gao Ling couldn't help but exclaim, "Gao Qing, are you crazy? How can a Demon Child be born?"
Gao Qing shot a glare at Gao Ling and asked, "Do you have a better solution?"
Gao Ling's arrogance deflated in an instant as he mumbled about not knowing what to do.
Gao Qing showed no mercy and said directly, "If you don't have a better idea, just sit down quietly and don't say anything."
Gao Ling felt embarrassed and I stepped in to ease the tension by handing him a cigarette.
At that moment, Uncle Cao interjected, "Master, this isn't appropriate. My daughter... What if a Demon Child is born? How will we live with that in the future?"
Gao Qing remained polite to Uncle Cao and explained, "Demon Children are different from human children. Human children need to be carried for eight or nine months, while a Demon Child only requires two to three months. However, I have a way to make it be born quickly, then seal it, or even eliminate it."
After hearing this, Yu's face turned pale.
That girl Yu was really foolish! No matter how much she loved Jian, Jian was a ghost; how could she possibly have a child with him?
Uncle Cao asked, "Won't this harm Yu's body? Will she still be able to have normal children in the future?"
Gao Qing replied, "Yu is not only under the pressure of Yin Qi; she is practically carrying 'Yin' within her. If this continues, not only could it harm her body, but she might even become a ghost herself. As for whether she can have normal children in the future, that depends on how you all manage her condition."
Uncle Cao said, "Please enlighten us, Master."
Gao Qing glanced at Uncle Cao and said, "Let's focus on getting the Demon Child born first. Additionally, you should ask him for help."
Gao Qing's gaze turned towards me, and Uncle Cao followed her gaze.
This left me confused, so I asked Gao Qing, "What can I do to help?" After I spoke, I suddenly realized—it must be my blood they needed.
Gao Qing quickly confirmed that they indeed wanted my blood.
At that moment, Uncle Cao also spoke up, pleading with me to help when the time came.
I thought about it briefly and agreed.
Gao Ling took the opportunity to sarcastically remark at Gao Qing, "In the end, it seems like it's still up to my Brother Fei to step in."
Gao Qing shot a glance at Gao Ling, contemplating something but ultimately chose not to respond.
I watched from the side as the two siblings bickered, wondering if they were enemies from a past life; otherwise, why would they constantly argue?
After discussing these matters, Gao Qing called out to Yu, saying, "You need to listen to me from now on. If you do, there’s still hope for you."
Yu seemed somewhat afraid of Gao Qing but still hesitated.
Uncle Cao noticed Yu's hesitation and quickly said, "Master, I’ll take charge of this. Yu will definitely cooperate fully with you."
Gao Qing continued to stare at Yu for a moment before saying that one must cherish their own life.
Yu pursed her lips and remained silent.
Gao Qing then turned to Uncle Cao and instructed, "Uncle Cao, go buy some Cinnabar and also get some things that children love to eat and play with."
Uncle Cao hurriedly responded, "Okay, okay! I’ll definitely bring them back."
Gao Qing added, "Make sure to buy the fun stuff from the Paper Offering Shop." Uncle Cao was momentarily speechless but agreed nonetheless.
Once Gao Qing finished giving instructions, he turned to Yu and said, "Tonight, soak some Glutinous Rice in water for a bath. Also, take this coin; string it on a rope and wear it around your neck."
Yu weakly extended her hand, and Gao Qing placed the coin directly into her palm.
I could see that Yu was clearly reluctant. There was still a fear that something unexpected might happen.
Gao Qing then told Uncle Cao, "Let’s head back for now. We’ll come by tomorrow night."
Upon hearing this, both Gao Ling and I stood up.
Uncle Cao tried to persuade us to stay here, saying there were some matters he could help with, but Gao Qing refused.
After the three of us left, Gao Ling turned to Gao Qing and said, "Can't you at least give your brother some face in front of others?"
Gao Qing replied directly, "What you've done over the years that deserves me giving you face?"
With that one sentence, Gao Ling was left speechless.
Gao Qing got into the car, and Gao Ling complained to me, "Fei, you tell me, where is there a sister who treats her brother like this? She'll never get married at this rate."
I was just about to respond to Gao Ling when I suddenly felt a chill run down my back. I turned around and heard someone say, "I mean no harm."
