After becoming an animal, I also have to farm

Xixi Pearl Gu's Residence

The luxurious villa was lit up with lights all around, illuminating the entire yard.

Behind the layers of artistically maintained green plants, a mahogany altar was abruptly placed in a spacious courtyard.

There were five kinds of offerings placed on the altar: incense, flowers, lanterns, and fruits. In addition, there were eight lamps of various grains.

In front of the altar was a white-haired Taoist priest wearing a Taoist robe and holding a whisk, who was performing a spell with great confidence.

Sitting upright on a mahogany chair behind the altar was a young woman wearing a plain white cheongsam, with her eyes closed and her hands clasped together.

There was a circle of people surrounding the girl, but the two middle-aged people leading them, a man and a woman, were obviously very nervous.

After the gray-robed Taoist priest finished his ritual and put his whisk on his arm, a middle-aged woman with a nervous and anxious look on her face immediately stepped forward to ask,

"Master Cui, how is it going? Can it be done?"

The Taoist priest Xu, who was called, twisted two fingers and counted, then his face became happy and he said to the middle-aged couple and the girl,

"It's done! The Impermanence is on its way. Don't be afraid. Just wait and see what I do."

The middle-aged woman smoothed her hair at ease after hearing this, and walked up to the girl to comfort her.

"Xinxin, don't be afraid. Mom and Dad are with you. Taoist Cui is also here and will definitely protect you."

Comforted by her family, the girl suddenly opened her eyes, revealing her sparkling eyes.

She smiled and comforted the middle-aged woman.

"Mom, don't worry, I'm not scared at all.

It was Master Wuchang who brought me back yesterday and even helped me cut the red string on my foot."

When Gu Jiaxin thought about the thrilling scene last night and her family's shocked reactions after she returned home safely, she felt as if she was living in a dream.

She knew that she had a weak constitution and was extremely unlucky. From childhood to adulthood, she had experienced countless embarrassing incidents such as soul separation.

Fortunately, her family is well-off and her parents love her very much.

Her family would go to Taoist temples and Buddhist temples all over the country to seek amulets for her.

When she was ten years old, Gu Jiaxin was able to live safely until she was 18 because her mother obtained the soul-locking jade pendant from the hermit Taoist priest on Mount Hua.

Perhaps because of exhaustion of spiritual power, at Gu Jiaxin’s 18th birthday party last month, the Soul-Locking Jade suddenly fell to the ground and shattered into pieces.

Mother Gu was so frightened that her whole body went limp and she almost fell to the ground.

If Mr. Gu had not been quick to pull both of them up, they would have made a fool of themselves at the banquet.

After all, this banquet was Gu Jiaxin's 18th-year-old coming-of-age ceremony, but it was also a meeting event for the heirs of the Gu and Xu families.

The Xu Group has suddenly become rich in recent years by relying on medical devices such as masks.

In comparison, the Gu family is an old-established enterprise that has been operating in Hangzhou for nearly a hundred years, so the Xu family is naturally far behind.

But Xu Mingcheng, the eldest son of the Xu family, was born with a connection to Buddhism and saved Gu Jiaxin several times when her soul left her body.

After a few interactions, the Xu family and the Gu family got in touch and started talking because of the life-saving grace.

After mobilizing all his connections and searching for more than a month, Mr. Gu still couldn't find a way to prevent his daughter's soul from leaving her body, so he set his sights on Xu Mingcheng.

He thought that if this guy was with his daughter, no matter when Gu Jiaxin's soul left her body, he would be able to help bring his daughter back.

Mr. Gu's concerns were also the same as Mrs. Gu's. After the two discussed it, they felt that this method was feasible.

Although Xu Mingcheng is four years older than Gu Jiaxin, he is also mature, and most importantly, he has the Buddhist affinity to help their daughter.

In addition, in the past week, Gu Jiaxin's soul has been leaving her body frequently, which really scared Gu's parents. They planned to urge their daughter Gu Jiaxin and Xu Mingcheng to get married as soon as possible.

Maybe Xu Mingcheng's horoscope can just suppress Gu Jiaxin's flaws, so they don't have to worry all day about their daughter suddenly dying because her soul leaves her body.

But after the two families met, Gu Jiaxin refused to agree.

Ning said that even if she died because her soul left her body, she would not marry Xu Mingcheng and live in vain.

Mother Gu was quite angry about Gu Jiaxin's willfulness, but when she heard her daughter say that she felt inexplicably uncomfortable when she saw Xu Mingcheng, she was very angry.

He also said that he always felt that the Xu family had other intentions, and he was unwilling to let his father and mother take the risk of marrying into the Xu family because of him.

So the matter came to a standstill, I wonder if it was because Xu Mingcheng no longer had any help.

Gu Jiaxin has been in a dangerous situation these days, with her soul leaving her body every night.

A few days ago, thanks to the protection of Taoist Cui, Gu Jiaxin's soul was not too far away from her body and was soon brought back by the soul-calling team.

But yesterday's sudden incident almost scared Gu's father and mother to death, because this time Gu Jiaxin almost didn't return to her physical body before the rooster crowed three times.

But no one expected that the turning point would come so quickly.

Just as the Gu family was anxiously waiting for Taoist Cui to call Gu Jiaxin's soul back.

Then a golden chain carrying Gu Jiaxin's soul flew rapidly towards the bedroom.

Under the expectant gaze of Gu's father and mother, Gu Jiaxin suddenly woke up and started talking nonsense.

"Dad! Mom! Guess what? It was Wuchang who sent me back this time?!"

Not only were Gu's father and mother frightened, even Taoist Cui, who was shaking the bell next to them, almost trembled and dropped the bell to the ground.

Taoist Cui's knowledge is still broader than that of Gu's father and mother. He calmed down first and asked Gu Jiaxin carefully what was going on.

Why would the God of Death send her back?

You know, Wuchang’s job is to capture people’s souls, how could he possibly do the opposite?

Gu Jiaxin had no idea that she would unexpectedly get help from an intern Wuchang by mistake.

He told Master Cui and Mr. and Mrs. Gu everything that had just happened.
