I wandered around the shop and noticed that the Cat-Faced Paper Man from yesterday was missing. 0
 
It must have been eaten by that Cat-Faced Monster! 0
 
I had crafted that Paper Man a month ago, intending it to serve as a guardian for the store. 0
 
However, recently, I had noticed something increasingly strange about it. 0
 
It could move on its own! 0
 
And every time it moved, bizarre things would happen in the shop! 0
 
I suspected that this Paper Man might be cursed. 0
 
So, I spent a long time studying it. 0
 
I discovered that its construction was identical to my grandfather's style! 0
 
Even the features of the Paper Man resembled my grandfather's exactly! 0
 
But… how could that be? 0
 
Grandpa had been dead for several years! 0
 
There was no way he could have made the Paper Man! 0
 
Some jerk must have impersonated Grandpa to create this Paper Man! 0
 
It was bad enough that this jerk made a Paper Man at all! 0
 
But why would he make one that looked just like Grandpa? 0
 
It was all so bizarre! 0
 
I pondered over it for a long time but couldn’t make sense of it. 0
 
 
Finally, I decided to stop pondering this strange question. 0
 
I walked in front of the Flower Shop and noticed a small tuft of yellow fur on the ground. 0
 
I pinched it with my fingers and realized it was animal hair. 0
 
Moreover, it emitted a foul odor! 0
 
It reminded me of the stench I caught when I encountered the Middle School Goddess at the KTV yesterday! 0
 
Could it be that the Middle School Goddess is actually a fox spirit? 0
 
A wave of nausea washed over me, and I quickly burned a Five Thunder Talisman to incinerate the tuft of fur. 0
 
As soon as the Five Thunder Talisman ignited, I heard a piercing scream! 0
 
The scream seemed to come from all directions, making my head throb! 0
 
I hurriedly covered my ears and shouted, "Stop screaming!" 0
 
"Stop screaming!" 0
 
But the sound persisted! 0
 
I could only draw out my Peach Wood Sword and swing it around, shouting, "Evil spirits, begone!" 0
 
"Monsters and demons, leave at once!" 0
 
Yet no matter how I swung the Peach Wood Sword, the scream remained. 0
 
I couldn't see what was attacking me! 0
 
I could only desperately wave my Peach Wood Sword in defense! 0
 
At that moment, the Five Thunder Talisman burned out completely! 0
 
 
The screams had finally ceased! 0
 
I let out a sigh of relief. 0
 
But at that moment, I noticed something strange— 0
 
The flames of the Five Thunder Talisman had extinguished! 0
 
Yet the Red Fragrance in the Eight Sections Incense was burning brighter and brighter! 0
 
I quickly took out my lighter to ignite the Red Fragrance. 0
 
But no matter what I did, the lighter wouldn’t catch fire! 0
 
Could it be that Ancestor was truly manifesting? 0
 
I dared not move recklessly and could only silently pray in my heart, “Ancestor Master, please bless me!” 0
 
Just then, the Western Clock on the wall struck eight o'clock! 0
 
It was time for me to open the door and do business! 0
 
The Flower Shop was quite dull; occasionally, villagers would come in to buy incense or make flower wreaths. 0
 
I placed the finished wreaths on the table and lay down to sleep. 0
 
I dreamt of my grandfather. 0
 
He murmured, “Don’t speak…” 0
 
“Don’t speak…” 0
 
I woke up with a start; it was already night. 0
 
Feeling a bit off, I closed my eyes to rest. 0
 
 
At that moment, I heard a woman's voice: "Is anyone there?" 0
 
I didn't want to respond, but the woman kept sobbing. 0
 
"Waah..." 0
 
I was afraid she would attract the neighbors, so I shouted, "Are you done yet?" 0
 
"Can you be quiet?" 0
 
The woman stopped crying. 0
 
I let out a sigh of relief, got up to turn off the lights, and went to bed. 0
 
Just then, I heard the woman's voice again: "I'm sorry, sir." 0
 
"My face is in trouble." 0
 
"Could you help me, please?" 0
 
I was furious: "Get out!" 0
 
In the next second, I felt a heavy weight on my shoulder. 0
 
It seemed like something was pressing down on me. 0
 
And I could feel something furry rubbing against my jaw! 0
