Super détecteur de fantômes

Chapitre 66

Shen Zhili glanced at Su Chenche and couldn't help but point at his head, saying, "Why hasn't that tuft of hair on the back of your head gone yet..."

"A cowlick?" Su Chenche touched his head, feeling the stubborn strand of hair sticking up. "Uh... I don't know, when did it stick up?"

An iron flute reached over and poked a tuft of hair at Su Chenche's head.

Hua Jiuye said casually, "It's been a day or two... I thought it was another product of your terrible taste, deliberately sticking one out like a chicken feather."

Su Chenche looked at Shen Zhili with a wronged expression: "Qingxing is gone... no one will comb my hair anymore..."

Before Shen Zhili could answer, Hua Jiuye interrupted, "Can't you do it yourself? You really are a young master who grew up with a silver spoon in his mouth." His tone was sarcastic.

Su Chenche ignored him and blinked: "Zhi Li... can you help me comb my hair?"

Shen Zhili: "I didn't comb my hair..."

A comb was shoved into her hand.

Holding the comb, Shen Zhili hesitated for a moment, but looking at that unusually protruding tuft of hair, the urge to suppress it was incredibly strong...

Finally, she pressed down on Su Chenche's shoulders and combed his hair forcefully.

The ahoge (cowlick) trembled in the wind and then flattened down.

Shen Zhili released his hand with satisfaction, only to see that the tuft of hair stubbornly stand up again.

...We must overpower it!

Shen Zhili struggled repeatedly with that tuft of hair, completely unaware that Su was getting closer and closer to her.

"Ouch...it hurts..." Su Chenche clutched his head and abruptly stepped back.

Hua Jiuye held a strand of hair that had been forcibly pulled out, and said with a faint smile, "Alright, it's gone now."

Shen Zhili: "..." What a great idea! Why didn't she think of that before?

Su Chenche's face darkened: "Give me back my fur..."

Hua Jiuye grinned, leaping back and tossing a lock of hair in her hand: "No way! Want it? Come and take it, come and take it!"

Su Chenche turned his head dismissively: "How childish."

Hana Kuya's expression also darkened immediately: "Want to fight?"

...This kind of dialogue happens at least three or four times a day, and I'm really tired of hearing it.

Shen Zhili turned to go back, but suddenly felt a pain in the back of her head, which prompted her to slap the person in the back.

With a crisp "smack," it hit Su Chenche's pretty little face right on the cheek.

Su Chenche touched his flushed cheeks, then frowned and plucked a few strands of hair from his head, mixing them with the hair in his hand.

Shen Zhili: "...What are you doing?"

Su Chenche's fingers were exceptionally skillful, and he quickly tied the hair knot. He even took a tassel from the jade pendant at his waist and tied it together before smilingly lifting it up and asking Shen Zhili, "Does it look good?"

The black hair was tied together so tightly that it was impossible to tell them apart, and the tassels hanging from the bottom swayed gently in the wind... Actually, it was quite strange.

But a word unconsciously flashed through Shen Zhili's mind.

A married couple.

Su Chenche took Shen Zhili's hand and placed the knotted item on it.

"Zhi Li...please let me marry you."

He still had five finger marks on his face from Shen Zhili's slap, bright red and almost dripping, which looked somewhat ridiculous... but his expression was serious when he spoke.

The strands of hair felt light and airy in my hand; they weren't heavy at all, but rather gave me a slightly itchy feeling.

This feeling travels through my heart... it's like my heart has been gently touched by something soft and delicate.

A slight itch, a subtle emotion.

Don't you want to marry him?

Shen Zhili looked down at the strand of hair that was intertwined, so similar that they were inseparable.

"You think you can marry my junior sister just because of a few strands of hair... Are you kidding me?"

Hua Jiuye pulled the strand of hair from Shen Zhili's hand and threw it far into the bushes nearby, then looked coldly at Su Chenche.

Shen Zhili's gaze followed that strand of hair and froze for a moment.

Su Chenche's expression turned cold: "Of course not... If Zhili is willing to marry me, I would give her everything I have."

Hana Kuya: "Including the Twelve Nights?"

Su Chenche answered without hesitation: "Including Twelve Nights."

Hua Jiuye curled her lips: "Does that include your life?"

Su Chenche paused for a moment, and Hua Jiuye chuckled.

Looking calmly at Hua Jiuye, Su Chenche smiled and said, "Yes, not including my life for now... because I want to keep it to marry Zhili. I won't let myself die before I marry Zhili."

"I don't believe it at all." Hua Jiuye said, "Why do you want to marry my junior sister?"

Su Chenche answered faster than ever before: "Because I love her."

Hana Kuya suddenly burst into laughter.

After a while, he stopped smiling, grabbed Su Chenche's collar, his expression still smiling, but his eyes were full of chilling coldness: "Don't worry, I will never marry my junior sister to you... a second Ye Qianqian? Don't even think about it."

After Su Chenche walked away, Hua Jiuye went to look at Shen Zhili, who hadn't spoken since he interrupted.

Shen Zhili lowered her head slightly, seemingly lost in thought.

A pang of heartache flashed in Hua Jiuye's eyes. He reached out and ruffled her hair, asking softly, "What's wrong? Are you unhappy with your senior brother's attitude?"

Shen Zhili looked up, slowly shook her head, and smiled: "No... I never intended to marry him anyway."

Hua Jiuye: "But you're still very sad." As she rubbed his skin, Hua Jiuye's voice was mixed with an emotion that was hard to tell whether it was nostalgia or something else. "Just like when we were kids, you didn't know how to hide your emotions at all. How did you manage to deceive me back then..."

Shen Zhili: "Hey, hey... I'm already taking care of you, let's not talk about those things."

Hua Jiuye chuckled and sighed, "That's true. I'll go get two more outfits made first... Anyway, it's your money, so I don't feel any pain at all."

Shen Zhili: "..."

It hurts me even though you don't!

Hua Jiuye ruffled Shen Zhili's already messy hair, put something in her hand, and turned to walk away.

She looked into her palm, where the lock of hair she thought he had thrown away was lying peacefully.

******************************************************************************

Less than half a month later, Spring Valley welcomed a second batch of wounded.

Clearly not content with just one elder from Mount Hua, the Demonic Cult extended its reach to other major sects. The leaders of Mount Heng and Mount Qi were both ambushed when they left the mountain. The leader of Mount Qi was alright, but the leader of Mount Heng was caught off guard and was struck in a vital spot by the Demonic Cult's thieves.

Shen Zhili would naturally not refuse money offered to him, especially since this time it was someone Shen Zhili could barely recognize.

Du Yizhi, the chief disciple of Hengshan.

She had almost forgotten the name, but when she saw that face, Shen Zhili couldn't help but recall how he had been beaten up by Su Chenche at the martial arts tournament and couldn't get out of bed for days, yet he still kept thanking him... He really was a kind-hearted fool.

Just as Shen Zhili was feeling sentimental, the ingredients for the Seven Emotions Pill had been gathered and were personally delivered to the Valley of Rejuvenation by Lei Ying.

Chapter 54

There are seven medicinal herbs in total, all of which exist only in legends and are extremely difficult to find.

In fact, the Seven Emotions Pill itself is a legend.

In the pharmacy of Rejuvenation Valley, Lei Ying carefully took out the medicinal herbs from the treasure box and arranged them one by one.

The □ of the Heaven-Swallowing Dragon of the North Sea, the Purple Wolf Grass of the South Mountain... one by one, the last thing is that ancient prescription.

Shen Zhili picked up the prescription, examined it carefully, and pursed her lips: "Some parts of this prescription are not clearly written. I need to experiment with it. Give me seven days. I should be able to prepare the antidote within seven days."

Lei Ying breathed a sigh of relief upon receiving Shen Zhili's assurance.

But then Shen Zhili suddenly asked, "Is it really true that you'll completely forget everything in half a month?"

Raikage nodded: "If what Gu Fang said is correct, then that's how it is."

That means there are only two weeks left.

For no reason, the image of Su Chenche's tuft of hair sticking up appeared in my mind, twitching back and forth, just like its owner, who was indomitable and liked to push his luck.

But once it's removed, it's gone forever.

Shen Zhili put the medicinal herbs back into the box and looked up to find Lei Ying still watching her.

She touched her cheek, puzzled, "Is there something on my face?"

A strange expression appeared on Lei Ying's cold face: "Aren't you sad?"

Shen Zhili lowered her head and folded the ancient prescription: "If I'm sad... then can I not take this antidote?"

Raikage remained silent.

Shen Zhili washed her hands and said, "I know what you want to say... It's nothing more than that the feelings that come from the medicine are too fake and unreal, or that Su Chenche shouldn't be wasting his time with me in Huichun Valley because he has the heavy responsibility of destroying the Demonic Sect..." She turned to Lei Ying and smiled, "Don't worry, I won't deliberately make the wrong antidote for this. I've already said I'm a doctor with medical ethics..."

Shen Zhili interrupted everything Lei Ying was about to say, leaving Lei Ying speechless.

Shen Zhili suddenly let out a long breath and laughed: "Commander Lei, it's just that you've been forgotten. I've been in Rejuvenation Valley for so many years, I've seen plenty of life and death... and besides..."

******************************************************************************

As Shen Zhili walked out of the pharmacy, she felt a sense of relief.

...Once you've made up your mind, let it go completely and stop thinking about it.

Dieyi jogged over: "Miss, phew, I've been looking for you for ages... that strange man has woken up."

wack?

When Shen Zhili rushed over, she saw the grotesque-looking man she had rescued from the Southern Frontier dungeon, who appeared to be the former king of Southern Frontier, grinning horribly. His mostly naked body was submerged in the bathtub, and he seemed embarrassed as he said, "Little girls, could you get me some clothes first? I don't mind, but it wouldn't be good if you had any bad memories of what I saw..."

...He actually didn't die.

His body was already exhausted from rescuing the man from the dungeon, but due to his awkward status, he couldn't abandon him in the Southern Frontier. So Shen Zhili had no choice but to carry him back, enduring the bumpy journey. The man remained unconscious until they arrived at Huichun Valley. Shen Zhili then put him in the medicinal spring and didn't bother with him anymore...

Surprisingly, the wound recovered by 70-80% just from the medicinal bath.

Their vitality is truly terrifyingly tenacious.
