Ghostly Fragrance [COMPLETED] [UNEDITED]

Two Spirits; One Love

The Pixiu could only lay down on the floor completely injured from the fight beforehand, completely docile like a lonely dog, "Wah! Is this suppose to be the guardian of this place?" Three sets of feet stood in front of the copper Pixiu who was pathetically laying on the ground, "It looks so..." Sim Siu didn't use the last words seeing the copper pixiu looking so sad. But, the Pixiu was prideful being did not seem to like knowing that humans pitied it, however, any sudden movement could only cause the pain of injuries to intensify. Being so helpless the Pixiu could only lay on the ground in pain hoping for his wounds to heal quickly.

A hand touched the muzzle of the Pixiu delivering a small stream of spiritual energy which was warm and comforting, "Sim Siu you shouldn't insult the pixiu," The young man who looked similar to the girl who pitied the pixiu gently scolded her.

But, the girl stood in disbelief as she didn't say anything, "I didn't insult it," She could only pouted as she turned her head away as her mood had soured.

The young man chuckled at the young girl, seemingly his younger sister, "Even if you didn't say anything a divine being like a Pixiu can sense anything that could be insulting, " He went to pat the girl's head wanting to ease her mood. The girl released her breathe and anger, apologizing to the the Pixiu who only kept quiet. This only seem to cause Sim Siu's mood to worsen, "Pixiu have you seen a girl with ash grey hair and eyes; about this height, come through here?" The young man describe the girl's features and placing a hand at his shoulder to show the girl's height. This time is was the Pixiu's turn to have his mood worsen at the memory of a human beating him especially the spirit that was possessing her. But, he felt the slight tremors from the ground from under his feet. The Pixiu quickly rushed to the next room where the plants that were last line of defense meant to protect the treasure from being taken had completely swallowed up the girl.

A small Qilin barely reaching maturity was trying to claw its way and dig through the vine with its hooves to no avail, making little to no progress. The young man, the little girl and the middle age man that was accompanied them was using every method to dig the girl out. But, eventually the young man created magical spear to pierce through the vine, revealing the unconscious bloodied girl.

Ang Siu carefully pulled out Fabgsu from the clutches of the vines which could only weakly try to grab at the girl's ankle, "Fangsu, please wake up," Gently tapping on Fangsu's cheek in an attempt to wake her up, however, this not caused the girl to wince in pain as she had wounds littered across her body.

Fangsu's small hands barely wrapped around Ang Siu's wrist stopping him from continuing to hurt her any further, "Continue anymore and you will infect my wounds," She could only lay in Ang Siu's arms that were supporting her, "Can you take me to the tree?" Clutching on the man's cloths who heeded her request walking up to the tree where the statue and the bone remain lay isolated and still in time forevermore. As Fangsu summoned out a small incense holder and filling it with some rice, sticking in some incense. Ang Siu lit the incense and they both prayed in silence until he noticed a greyish jade hairpin.

But, a sudden burst of spiritual energy bursted from the jade hairpin and what erupted from it was a male spirit, Ren Mosheng, "Why is it that the Unending Suffering Illness always have the worst?" Despite the other presence of a human nearby the male spirit ignored as if he hadn't realised, "Little One, you already at the later stages of the illness," Mosheng pinched his chin in thought as he clicked his finger.

Fangsu tilted her head the the rapid switch of personality with Mosheng, "What is it?" She asked curiously. A gentle squeeze from Ang Siu's hand reminded her that they didn't know who the spirit was and they needed answers, "This spirit is my benefactor," She quickly answer who instantly cleared the doubt of the spirit's identity and intentions towards Fangsu.
