“Qin.”
“Please go ahead, Granny.”
“Close your eyes.”
“Yes.”
Qin Chu completely trusted her and closed his eyes. Then, he sat cross-legged on a mat on the living room floor.
The mat was filled with densely packed runes and symbols.
“Ling, bring me some water.”
Granny instructed, and then Ling brought out a bowl of clear water.
Granny held a talisman in her hand. She did not light it with any kind of tool. The yellow talisman burned itself in her hand.
Then Granny simply poured the ashes of the talisman into the clear water.
Strangely, the water did not look dirty at all. It was still a bowl of clear water.
Ling had seen her grandmother casting spells before, so she was not surprised.
She just watched from the side without looking away…
“Ling, go into the room.”
“Grandma, I should learn from you too… After so many years, this is the first time I’ve seen the Connected Hearts spell…” The little girl seemed to be very interested in these metaphysics.
“No, go inside. It’s enough to have me as the only witch in the family… Ling, don’t take the same path as grandma.”
The old woman scolded sternly.
Ling pouted and returned to her room unwillingly.
“Qin, drink this bowl of water.”
The old woman handed Qin Chu a bowl of water.
Qin Chu closed his eyes and drank the water without hesitation.
At this point, Qin Chu knew better than anyone that he shouldn’t use people he did not trust.
Since he had chosen to believe in Granny, he must not hesitate anymore.
The old lady liked Qin Chu’s courage.
After Qin Chu drank the water, his body began to change subtly.
His entire body was emitting a kind of heat. In an instant, it rose to reach a high temperature.
It was as his body was having a high fever of 38.9 degrees celsius.
However, he remained silent and waited with his eyes closed.
The old lady slowly opened the small black box.
As she chanted, she took out a dagger and slit Qin Chu’s left wrist.
Blood immediately flowed out…
Five seconds later, a little red worm crawled out of the black box.
Its body was transparent, as if the red liquid inside was swaying along with it. It was extremely creepy.
The old lady continued chanting…
Qin Chu remained still…
The little red worm crawled towards Qin Chu’s wrist following the blood trail.
Then, it crawled into the wound that had just been cut by the dagger.
In that instant, the pain was excruciating…
Qin Chu felt a heart-wrenching pain in his arm, but he didn’t move. He kept Granny’s words in mind.
After the spiritual worm entered, the old lady took out a yellow talisman and sealed the wound.
Then, she continued chanting… Qin Chu could even feel something crawling up his left arm.
Every step was an unforgettable pain…
Gradually, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead…
The entire process lasted about 20 minutes…
Just as Qin Chu thought he was about to pass out from the pain, the pain miraculously disappeared…
“Qin, you can open your eyes now.”
Upon hearing Granny’s words, Qin Chu slowly opened his eyes.
He instinctively looked at his left wrist, which had just been cut by a knife.
He could not believe his own eyes…
The wound had disappeared as if nothing had happened…
As for his body, it was no longer burning with high temperature… it had returned to its normal state.
“Granny, this…”
“The spiritual worm has already entered… I’ll cast the spell to find your wife… You might have to suffer a little longer.”
“It’s okay, I’m not scared.” Qin Chu nodded firmly.
“Ling, come out…” Granny called out to her granddaughter again.
