The Metaphysical Little Beggar's Rebirth: I'm an Unlucky Star

"Go get this." Shu Wanwan waved the jade in her hand and showed it to Bai Xuan.

"What are you going to do with this?" Bai Xuan didn't understand.

"The Soul-Soothing Pearl was given to A Jian. I made a fake one to make it look real." Shu Wanwan explained simply.

Then Shu Wanwan went upstairs to start polishing the jade. Bai Xuan followed her upstairs and watched quietly beside Shu Wanwan. After a while, a round bead appeared in front of Bai Xuan.

"It really does look a bit like it." Bai Xuan looked at the bead before him and saw that it was indeed somewhat similar to the Soul-Suppressing Bead. He took the bead from Shu Wanwan's hand and examined it carefully again, "But it seems to lack some spiritual energy."

"Well, the Soul-Calming Pearl has been nurtured in the deep pool for so long, so naturally it cannot be compared with ordinary jade." Shu Wanwan looked at the jade bead.

"But let's go to Fengshui Street and pick out a spiritual tool that can gather water, and then try to set up a formation."

"Isn't the dragon turtle from before okay?" Bai Xuan looked at the dragon turtle on the door frame.

"This has been used in the purification array. If two arrays share the same array center, the effectiveness will be compromised." Shu Wanwan explained to Bai Xuan.

After Shu Wanwan finished speaking, she stood up and left, preparing to go to Fengshui Street. Bai Xuan followed her.

Shu Wanwan saw Bai Xuan following behind and said jokingly, "What's wrong? Aren't you afraid of running into a kind Taoist priest and getting beaten up this time?"

"Of course I'm not afraid. My spiritual power has recovered a lot, and I can deal with one or two ordinary Taoists." Bai Xuan was telling the truth. Another point was that he had confronted the man in black robe before. The man in black robe was very powerful and elusive. The man in black robe might come out again at any time, and he was worried that Shu Wanwan was left alone.

The two drove to Fengshui Street, searching for a suitable spiritual weapon. Bai Xuan relied on his keen intuition and selected a kettle with an ancient appearance.

"This kettle looks a little special." Shu Wanwan picked up the kettle and looked at it carefully.

Bai Xuan nodded, "I can indeed sense some spiritual power."

"But it doesn't seem to be suitable. The jade and the soul-calming beads are both Ren water, and this kettle is all black, so it should be Gui water. It's not suitable." Shu Wanwan put the kettle down and continued to walk inside.

After walking for a while, Shu Wanwan stopped in front of a hydroponic plant, and Bai Xuan also stopped following Shu Wanwan.

"This is good." Shu Wanwan said to Bai Xuan.

"White Jade Tiger Piramid?" Bai Xuan looked at the plant in front of him, then turned to look at Shu Wanwan, and continued, "This thing doesn't seem to have much spiritual power. Will it work?"

"For Feng Shui ornaments, it doesn't matter whether they have spiritual power or not. It's better if they have spiritual power, but not having spiritual power doesn't mean they have no effect." Shu Wanwan said to Bai Xuan and walked into the store.

"Boss, please help me wrap this up." Shu Wanwan said to the boss, who quickly wrapped it for her and handed it to Shu Wanwan.

The two of them didn't delay any longer and went home.

As soon as they got home, Shu Wanwan and Bai Xuan went upstairs.

In the room on the second floor, Shu Wanwan set up a simple formation around her and placed the white jade tiger skin plant on the windowsill.

As the formation was activated, water spirits gradually gathered in the plants, and the originally ordinary jade beads began to emit a faint spiritual light.

"Success!" Bai Xuan watched the changes in the beads, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes. "Although it's not as good as the real Soul-Suppressing Pearl, it's good enough to be mistaken for the real thing."

Just when the two were happy about Yuzhu's changes, the phone suddenly rang. It was Ye Linfeng calling.

"What's wrong? Officer Ye." Shu Wanwan said.

"Master, there is a case at the Spirit Management Bureau and they may need your help." Ye Linfeng didn't hesitate and went straight to the point.

After Ye Linfeng explained the situation to Shu Wanwan, Shu Wanwan quickly drove to the destination.

Residents downstairs.

"Is this the place?" Bai Xuan raised his head and looked upstairs.

Shu Wanwan couldn't persuade Bai Xuan, so she brought Bai Xuan along.

"Yeah." Shu Wanwan also raised her head and looked upstairs.

This is a high-end apartment building. Looking up along the floors, you can vaguely see that the windows on the 13th floor are a little burnt, but it is too far away to see clearly.

"It seems like there is a ghostly aura." Bai Xuan saw it vaguely.

"Let's go and talk about it when we get upstairs." Shu Wanwan said.

The two took the elevator and went upstairs.

When they reached the 13th floor, there were two policemen standing at the door. When they saw Shu Wanwan coming, they saluted.

"Ms. Shu." said one of the policemen.

Shu Wanwan nodded. "Is the scene protected?"

"As you requested, it has been sealed off with a barrier," the police replied.

Shu Wanwan walked into the room where the crime occurred, and Bai Xuan followed. The room was filled with a burning smell. A body lay in the middle of the living room, burnt beyond recognition. Shu Wanwan squatted down and carefully examined the body.

"Was the cause of death a fire?" Bai Xuan asked.

Shu Wanwan shook her head. "No, he was dead before the fire." She stood up and looked around, her gaze finally settling on a painting on the wall. It was a portrait of a man with a hollow, eerie look in his eyes. She approached the painting and gently touched the canvas. Suddenly, a chill washed over her. She frowned, gazing at the portrait. She felt something strange about it, but couldn't quite put her finger on why.

At this moment, Bai Xuan discovered a line of small characters below the portrait, which read "Lin Wei". Could this be the name of the deceased?

Shu Wanwan looked at the portrait in front of her, holding a yellow talisman tightly in her hand. She took a deep breath and gently placed the talisman on the portrait.

Instantly, the portrait seemed to come alive and began to tremble slightly. The originally still image began to distort and deform, leaving one with a chilling chill.

Suddenly, a sinister laugh emanated from the portrait, and then a dark shadow suddenly emerged from the painting. The shadow was enormous, with a ferocious face, and it lunged towards Shu Wanwan with its fangs and claws bared.

Shu Wanwan silently chanted the spell in her heart, and at the same time, she concentrated all her spiritual power on the talisman in her hand. As she chanted the spell, the talisman emitted a dazzling light, forming a thin shield that blocked the attack of the black shadow.

However, the shadow did not give up, it continued to attack the shield frantically, trying to break through Shu Wanwan's defense. Shu Wanwan tried her best to maintain the strength of the shield, and beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.

As time passed, Shu Wanwan gradually felt exhausted. But she could not give up, because she knew that if the shadow escaped, it would bring unimaginable disaster.

"Bai Xuan!" Shu Wanwan called softly.

Bai Xuan quickly stood in front of Shu Wanwan and cast magic to fight with the black shadow.

Shu Wanwan concentrated her mind, mobilized the power deep within her body, and integrated it into the talisman.

Suddenly, the talisman's light grew stronger, and the shield became indestructible. Feeling threatened, the shadow began to retreat. Ultimately, under Shu Wanwan's immense power, the shadow was sealed back into the portrait.
