Li Mazi and the other two were hiding in the bathroom, looking at me. They didn’t know that, behind them, inside the full-length mirror, a cluster of dark hair was dangling and reaching out like blades of seaweed. It was hovering, looking like it could attack any minute! 

I took a deep breath. This otherworldly item had intelligence. It was threatening me to stop me from intervening. Once I continued my deed, it’d attack my friends.

Even though it was a critical moment, I wasn’t flustered. I took a deep breath before taking out my phone. 

When Li Mazi saw me standing still and gazing at the spot behind them, he recognized that something must be there. Instantly, his face turned pale and he wanted to turn his head around to check.

I immediately shook my head, signaling him not to check. Once he saw the hair, it would attack him for sure! 

I prepared a short message to text to Li Mazi. “Bite the tip of your tongue and keep the blood in your mouth. Next, walk forward…”

Li Mazi checked his mobile phone, gawking. Then, he showed the phone to the other two nearby, so that they could see the text.

Upon seeing the text, Wang Shaocong and Yin Xinyue became scared. However, they did well and they didn’t disappoint me. They were still frightened, yet in just a blink, they did as I’d asked. 

However, the moment Yin Xinyue bit the tip of her tongue, she felt so much pain that tears rolled down her cheeks. 

Then, the three of them held the blood in their mouths and walked toward me. 

When they were about to leave the bathroom, the cluster of hair began to move. It separated into three parts, each section aiming for their hearts! 

Right at this moment. 

I bellow angrily and move forward, tossing the blood of the evil people toward it. 

When the wicked blood hit the black hair, it reacted like a patch of skin that had corrosive acid poured on it, sizzling and emitting white smoke. The cluster of hair instantly curled up in pain before hurriedly retreating into the mirror. 

“Quick, take Qingqing out of here…” I yelled at the three still lying on the ground.  

Li Mazi finally reacted. He grabbed Yin Xinyue and stormed out of the place. Wang Shaocong scooped up the unconscious Qingqing, quickly leaving the apartment.  

As the front door closed, I was very tense. I knew that the hair cluster was just gone for a while. It’ll show up again soon. 

I didn’t blink as I stared at the mirror in the bathroom, my shaking hand holding the bottle of evil people’s blood. 

However, the bathroom’s mirror was strangely calm. I’d been waiting for around ten minutes, and there was still no reaction. I was surprised, and wondered if the Coagulated Gold had been dealt with that easily? 

While thinking about it, sounds of a collision suddenly arose behind me. I took a deep breath before turning around to check.

I could never have imagined that the mirror in the living room now contained a soot black figure. All of a sudden, that black figure shot a large amount of hair toward me, trying to attack me. 

This time, the hair didn’t gather into a big bunch, but divided into many smaller ‘braids’, reaching toward me from every direction. 

I wasn’t prepared for such an abrupt attack. So, I was wrapped up by the hair like a leaf steamed bun.

Immediately, I felt an evil chill creeping along my body, which made me nauseous. It was the hair from a dead head, how could I not feel disgusted? 

The hair forcefully pulled my body, dragging me toward the mirror and attempting to suck me in. 

I knew that once I was in there, it’d be game over. My soul would be taken away and I couldn’t do anything. 

I didn’t have much time to consider. I lifted the coke bottle and poured the blood of the wicked people over my head as if it was water.

The stench of the blood made me feel a little suffocated. However, I couldn’t be picky right now, and I wished I could have more blood like this. 

After the hair was covered in blood, it retracted again.

But, how could I let it run away? I snorted, then smeared blood all over my hands before grabbing a tuft of hair, and hitting my head fiercely onto the mirror!

Before the hair could retreat into the mirror, the mirror shattered.

Then, I pulled. I grabbed a shadow and tugged it out of the mirror. 

I didn’t have time to check the shadow carefully as I hurriedly splashed all of the wicked blood onto it. It quickly began to sizzle and emit white smoke. It staggered toward me, reaching for my heart with its claws. 

I sprinkled more of the wicked blood onto my body for defence while using the same blood to attack the shadow. 

Under my efforts, the dark shadow began to fade. Shortly after, it disappeared. I finally exhaled in relief. I picked up the golden necklace and soaked it in the remaining amount of wicked blood. Then, I opened the front door. 

At this moment, I felt extremely dizzy, and I heard a horrible buzzing sound inside my ears. I couldn’t believe that Qingqing’s mirror was of such high quality. I’d hit it with my head, and I now thought I had a concussion. 

Seeing my bloody appearance, the others were scared. They hurriedly helped me to stand as they asked me what the situation was. 

I smiled. “I’m okay. Take me to the hospital, please.” 

After saying that, I felt a great dizziness before I blacked out…

When I opened my eyes, I didn’t know how long it had been, but I was now so thirsty that my throat was burning. Someone then passed me a cup of water after my mumbled requests. 

I tried my best to open my eyes wide and clear my vision. I thought that Yin Xinyue would’ve stayed to take care of me, but I never could’ve imagined that it was Qingqing instead. 

Seeing that I was waking up, she hurriedly asked me, “How do you feel now? Still have a headache? Does it hurt somewhere else?” 

Compared to the previous Qingqing, the gentle, mild girl standing in front of me was completely different. 

I smiled at her. “You’re finally all right.” 

Qingqing sighed, and put a soft pillow behind my back so I could sit up. “Brother Zhang, thank you so much. If it weren’t for you, sigh… I don't know how worse I could’ve become!”

My bad impression of Qingqing’s previous character vanished instantly. She was a well-educated and grateful girl. Immediately, I had a good feeling about her. 

“It was nothing much. Just a little help. Oh, right, where are Yin Xinyue and Li Mazi?” I asked.

“Yin Xinyue went back to work. Li Mazi’s buying you food,” answered Qingqing. 

“Why isn't your boyfriend here with you?” I asked. “You don’t look okay. Go home and rest! Li Mazi will stay with me.” 

“Boyfriend? You mean Wang Shaocong?” When I mentioned Wang Shaocong, Qingqing was enraged. “Don’t talk about him to me. He’s worse than filthy animals!” 

I looked at Qingqing with surprise. “What happened? He helped you a lot, and he got hurt because of you.” 

Qingqing forced a smile. “You don’t know everything, so I’m going to tell you the truth. Actually, he gave me that golden necklace. I asked a master, and that golden necklace has Wang Shaocong’s blood in it, which he could use to subdue me and make me follow him. To get me, he used such a low and despicable trick… Sigh, tell me, why do women have to bear such harsh destiny…?” 

I was startled, and looked at Qingqing disbelievingly. 

I knew that Qingqing wasn’t joking. However, I couldn’t believe it. To claim a woman, Wang Shaocong had used such contemptible deeds.

At this moment, Qingqing must be extremely disappointed. 

“All right, no more talking.” Qingqing smiled at me. “You should rest more. I’m going to get more water for you.”

Then, Qingqing lifted the thermal bottle and left the room. Watching her back as she walked away, I felt a little pitiful for her. 

That girl was really pathetic. I didn’t know what Wang Shaocong was thinking. She was a good girl, and she was troubled to this degree. 

Li Mazi soon returned. Seeing that I was awake, he came closer, lowering his voice as he asked, “Where’s Qingqing?” 

Looking at Li Mazi’s thief-like eyes, I knew the man was up to no good. I couldn’t help but ask, “Are you planning to hit on Qingqing?” 

Li Mazi smiled. “I’m just going to normally chase after her. I’m not like Wang Shaocong, I won’t use despicable tricks.”

I patted Li Mazi’s shoulder. “It’s a good opportunity. You’d better not miss it.” 

Li Mazi grinned. “You should let Yin Xinyue help me style my appearance as I need a better outward look. With my current state, don’t I look a bit bad?” 

I smiled. “You’re right. You’re completely outdated. How about you let Yin Xinyue wrap you up and make you a new star?” 

A long period later, I still hadn’t heard from Wang Shaocong. After half a year had passed, Li Mazi came to me and showed me a newspaper column. It was an article titled ‘A rich young man goes bankrupt, commits suicide under mental pressure.’. 

And, the main character of this article was someone called ‘Mr Wang’.

Immediately, I recognized that it was Wang Shaocong. Later on, Li Mazi told me that Qingqing’s father was the one behind Wang Shaocong’s bankruptcy. No matter what, his daughter was enchanted. Which father could hold back his rage? 

One shouldn’t have harmful intentions, and one should have the awareness to protect himself. It was a teaching from the ancestors. Through thousands of years, it was proven true. Although it was rough and shallow, many people understood, but still deliberately committed crimes. 

Money could provoke a calamity!
