My Lady Always Lacks Ambition-Chapter 989 - 962: This Trick for Squeezing Incense Oil Seems So Familiar!

Chapter 989: Chapter 962: This Trick for Squeezing Incense Oil Seems So Familiar!

Although Qin Liuxi seemed like a God Stick, when she said Luo Qi was entangled by a female ghost, it startled both master and servant.

"Master, what do you mean by this? Is my young master haunted by something filthy?"

Qin Liuxi gestured for Luo Qi to sit down and said to him, "You should know best yourself, otherwise why would your body be like this?"

Luo Qi was taken aback, his face turning red again.

Steward Zhang was bewildered. Was there something he didn’t know?

Qin Liuxi asked Luo Qi to extend his hand, placed her two fingers on it, and said, "The female ghost has been following you all this time, but because of the City God Temple and the presence of the City God, she dared not enter. Otherwise, how come you show such relief now?"

Luo Qi’s heart skipped a beat. Indeed, upon entering the City God Temple, he felt the heaviness vanish, and the coldness from these past days seemed to warm up.

So, was he really haunted by a female ghost?

Luo Qi got goosebumps all over, "How could this be?"

Qin Liuxi checked his pulse, "Slow and sluggish pulse, depleted essence and yang, pallor with a greenish hue, Qi deficiency and sluggish blood, good sir, your midnight dreams are quite colorful."

This teasing made Steward Zhang glance at Luo Qi, while the latter’s face turned purple.

"Speak up, what’s going on? Clearly, you’re a Child Boy, yet showing signs of overindulgence. There must be an external cause. You seem upright and not the type to indulge in such wantson behavior, not even in self-indulgence resulting in such continuous loss of essence."

Luo Qi’s expression was somewhat unnatural, seemingly difficult to disclose, his lips moved but he couldn’t utter a word.

Seeing this, Steward Zhang got anxious, stomping his foot, "Young master, this concerns your health. Since the doctor has already diagnosed it, speak freely, your health is most important."

After all, there are not many people here, and it’s already socially awkward, what’s the point of hiding? Moreover, she’s just a female crown and speaks openly.

How could he be inferior to a woman?

Luo Qi pinched the web between his thumb and index finger, took a deep breath, and said, "What Master said is true. My loss of essence is not due to self-indulgence. Each night, I dream of intimacy with a woman, wantonly disgraceful. Each time I wake up, the bedsheet is sticky, and I feel sore and mentally unclear, as though I really had a wild night."

The first time he dreamt such scenes, Luo Qi was a bit shy, but as a man, he could tolerate it. After all, he’s at an age with strong desires, having heard similar stories from classmates.

However, it persisted the next day, and dreaming led to sleepless nights. As the saying goes, there are no barren lands, only overworked bulls. After a few indulgent days, even a man of steel couldn’t handle it, soon becoming lethargic with poor spirits. His normally sharp mind grew muddled.

The key thing was his physical state began to deteriorate, feeling weak and heavy, with dark circles under his eyes, just as Qin Liuxi had described as signs of overindulgence.

But he was wrongly accused, still a pure Child Boy!

Well, if the dreams counted, he was "impure." After all, in dreams, he was led to unlocking the legendary twenty-four positions.

Listening to him, Qin Liuxi recalled a past case involving a Pillow Ghost, only it was a male ghost enchanting innocent girls. Similar to what Luo Qi experienced.

Could Luo Qi also have encountered a Pillow Ghost?

Remembering the fleeting ghost figure, Qin Liuxi asked, "In your dream, was the woman wearing a sheer water-red gown?"

Luo Qi’s hairs stood on end, "How did you know?"

"The female ghost entangling you is dressed like that, but she doesn’t seem like a proper lady," Qin Liuxi asked, "What did you think of her in the dream?"

Luo Qi, having no time for embarrassment, said, "She seems like a brothel woman, very forward and bold about men and women matters, very..." He touched his burning face, "very skilled."

As for the variety, he didn’t feel like mentioning it. After all, the doctor shows concern for the patients, and the one before him was a girl.

Qin Liuxi nodded, "One naturally carries righteousness and wouldn’t be haunted for no reason. Either bad luck or cause and effect."

Luo Qi immediately clarified, "I’ve never visited such places."

"Indeed, my young master always conducts himself well and studies at the academy; he wouldn’t frequent such places." Steward Zhang added.

Qin Liuxi said, "Then it’s another cause or effect. Perhaps you’re using something of hers or have something of hers."

Luo Qi widened his eyes, "How possible?"

"Previously, I encountered a case of a Pillow Ghost, but it was a male ghost luring girls into nights of pleasure just like you experienced," Qin Liuxi said.

"Even women can encounter such things?" Luo Qi was stunned.

Qin Liuxi chuckled, "Ghost attachment can happen to anyone, it’s just about what kind of ghost you encounter."

Luo Qi then said, "My pillow was made by my mother, using cassia seeds for the filling. It’s for clarity of hearing and vision and for sleep, not something bought outside."

So that was definitely not the female ghost’s item.

Steward Zhang said, "This is very difficult, Master, could you come with us and help us check? My young master is even afraid to go to the academy these days."

Luo Qi’s expression turned somewhat gloomy.

With this problem, rumors at the academy suggested he was mingling in places of pleasure, indulging freely, and even the teachers subtly advised against it. Though the innocent would remain innocent, such a reputation would greatly impact his future and marriage, bringing infamy to his character.

Who would want to associate with someone obsessed with places of pleasure?

Therefore, he sought medical help, but the doctors prescribed medicines to nourish the kidneys and hinted against excessive bedroom activities, which was utterly unjust.

The most important part was that even after taking medicine for waist and kidney nourishment, the same dreams would occur after falling asleep. It made him fearful of sleeping, forcing himself awake. Yet, when exhausted, the same ordeal would happen, day or night.

This disturbed his daily life significantly.

Now, Qin Liuxi told him it was due to being entangled by a female ghost, causing such dreams. Although absurd, he believed it.

He had to believe; otherwise, why else would he dream of such amorous scenes while asleep?

"Follow you?" Qin Liuxi looked at the City God statue, seemingly hesitant.

Steward Zhang followed her gaze, wondering if expelling the ghost needed the City God’s approval?

As he looked, he noticed the ink not yet dried on the Merit Box, suddenly inspired, he blurted out, "Master, if you can rid my young master of the Evil Ghost, we will enhance the merit oil extensively."

To show sincerity, he untied the wallet from his waist and placed some broken silver into the Merit Box.

Qin Liuxi smiled, "Alright, with enough offerings to the gods comes divine protection; the City God authorizes me to battle and exorcise evil."

City God: "..."

This incense oil ploy seemed familiar!
