Having devoted myself to guiding souls, I was surrounded by them after my death.

Even without makeup, her features remained striking, with captivating eyes, a high, straight nose, and moist lips.

"Oh right, this glance counts too."

"Uh...four-eyes?" Chen Shi asked, holding his violin.

"Is it less than half?"

Jiang Liu smiled faintly and flicked Chen Shi's forehead:

"I'm keeping my inspiration in mind. There are eight eyes in total. I'll add six sets of practice and two sets of sparring later."

Experience is the best teacher, and Chen Shi, unable to outmaneuver Jiang Liu, had no choice but to accept defeat.

Jiang Liu's expression changed slightly, and her fingers touched the violin, gently rubbing the headstock:

"Let me see. This magical artifact has a very high potential, but it is also very easy to lose control."

“Yes, it’s related to the music. The better the performance, the easier it is to control,” Chen Shi said.

“Then you need to practice more. I also have a similar magical artifact, a bass guitar, and the way to use it is similar to this one.”

Jiang Liu understood immediately and brought out a musical score:

"Let's start with music theory."

For the next half hour, Chen Shi once again felt like he was dozing off in high school Chinese class.

He's not exactly lacking in musical talent, but he does get sleepy in class.

Nobody ever said you had to know music to exorcise a spirit.

However, the effects of the Soul-Guiding Harp are very strong, so it cannot be easily abandoned.

However, upon closer inspection, Jiang Liu is indeed exaggerated; it seems she knows everything and is proficient in everything.

"Come on, get into position."

After simplifying the basic theory, Jiang Liu stood up and went straight into practical application:

"The way you hold the violin is very important. If you hold it correctly, you can play the notes and press the strings accurately."

She came up behind him, wrapped her arms around him, and gently grasped Chen Shi's hands.

The fresh scent of shower gel wafted from behind. Jiang Liu had just finished showering and was still warm. As their arms touched, the heat transferred, causing a slight tingling sensation.

"Hold the violin steadily with your left hand, and don't raise it too high."

Jiang Liu stood behind him, her breath warm against the back of his neck as she spoke.

Chen Shi's eyes darted around for a moment, then he felt a soft touch on his back, and Jiang Liu held his hands.

Jiang Liu's hands were slender with long fingers, and also very strong.

"Senior Sister Jiang, are you feeling a little hot?" Chen Shi couldn't help but ask.

"Of course it's hot after a shower."

Jiang Liu narrowed her eyes, speaking in a tone as if teasing a child:

"What's wrong? Did you get a fever? Should I lower your temperature a bit, senior sister?"

"Senior sister, are you a robot? You can even lower your body temperature?" Chen Shi asked in surprise.

At the same time, he felt a slight pain in his left hand—Jiang Liu was adjusting his hand gestures, bending his four fingers toward the strings.

"Of course, to be precise, it's about controlling blood through inspiration. You can learn it once your inspiration reaches level three."

When Jiang Liu said that, Chen Shi remembered that blood was also one of Jiang Liu's weapons when she fought against the three evil spirits.

Wasn't that supposed to be some kind of secret technique? How could he learn it?

"Focus."

Jiang Liu pressed against his back, gently raising her elbow with one hand:

"Raise your elbows slightly so you can control the bow."

Inside the training room, heat emanated from the bathroom, and Jiang Liu was so close that he could hear her breathing against his ear.

"Remember, four strings, four notes, use your left hand to press the strings to change the notes."

Chen Shi took a deep breath, trying to focus on learning the violin as much as possible, rather than paying attention to the soft touch behind him and the heat blowing on his neck.

"Now, pull slowly."

Jiang Liu's voice was very soft, completely different from the sharp voice she used when she was ferrying spirits; she sounded more like a gentle and intellectual older sister next door.

Chen Shi's gaze drifted, and Jiang Liu's fair hands gently covered his hands, beginning to guide him in playing the violin slowly.

This time, instead of the creaking sound of sawing wood, there was a more melodious sound.

"That's the feeling. Don't pull too hard when you pull, or it will be like sawing wood. You have to find the right balance."

Jiang Liu's eyes darted around and she saw that Chen Shi's ears were red from being blown by her.

A faint smile appeared on her lips as she said:

"Speaking of which, someone rushed over to me in front of more than ten people and the dean to learn a special way of playing the zither. Are you referring to this kind?"

"Crunch~~~" Chen Shi's hand trembled, and he immediately started sawing the wood.

"Senior sister..."

Jiang Liu chuckled softly, like a mischievous older sister who had successfully amused a child:

"Alright, focus, keep practicing."

Chapter 96 still says they haven't talked!?

Nanhai City, early morning.

Inside a high-end villa in the suburbs, a man and a woman sat holding wine glasses, with two hound masks on the table.

He is the spirit weapon hunter who previously appeared at Qiushi Private Academy.

On the cart next to them lay Lu Jin's body.

“Lu Jin was quite strong. The fact that he died so tragically means that, just like the intelligence, his opponent must have been a powerful ferryman, most likely a level three,” the tall, muscular man said.

"Don't worry, Lao Zhang has a magical artifact that can read the memories of the dead, right? The faces of those ferrymen have already been read, and they're currently searching the dark web."

Wu Yan sat opposite her, wearing a fitted cheongsam and sexy makeup. Her long brown hair had slightly curled ends. She swirled her wine glass.

Suddenly, a person came running up and handed over several documents.

[First document: Chen Shi]

The information details Chen Shi's age, school, and various aspects of his life, making him appear to be an ordinary college student.

[Second document: Luo Xiaoyu]

[Third document: Song Qingmei]

These two documents are relatively vague, with only Luo Xiaoyu having a college entrance examination record and admission information from Nanhai City University.

[Fourth document: Su Yining]

This document is the most special.

"What's the deal with this Su Yining?" Wu Yan frowned.

The information is completely blank, with no identity information, no affiliation, and only a name.

Information was completely blocked, like a ghost whose existence had been erased.

"I don't know. Brother Zhang read the memories and displayed them using a magical artifact, but we really can't find anything about this girl. All the information, both overt and covert, has been erased," the man replied.

"It's ok."

The tall, muscular man said:

“Take them down one by one. Those two with less clear backgrounds are probably internal ferrymen. As for this Chen Shi… he’s most likely a ferryman recruited from the wild. It’s really strange that they’re so xenophobic, yet they would pull in a wild recruit at this critical juncture, and a college student at that.”

He pointed with his finger:

"Let's deal with him first and dampen the ferryman's spirits."

"No problem, these kinds of college students are the easiest to deal with."

Wu Yan smiled, her eyes narrowing.

"How do you plan to solve this? Will you just go to the university and find someone there?" the tall, muscular man asked curiously.

"Do not."

Wu Yan trailed off:

“That would be too boring. I prefer to target the people around my target. People have emotions. When they see someone important to them being killed, they lose their composure, and that’s when the best time to strike is.”

After saying that, she picked up Chen Shi's file and swayed her hips as she left the villa.

The documents contain several CCTV photos of Chen Shi and Wang Wei going to and from get out of class and eating.

……

……

Meanwhile, Jiang Lingqin's shop.

"Ouch!"

Inside the training room, Jiang Liu was on top of Chen Shi, her long, fair legs locked around his waist and abdomen, her chest pressed against his back, her slender arms locked around his throat, and her entire weight was on him.

"What? You can't do it anymore?"

Jiang Liu smiled, her beautiful eyes as black as ink, staring at Chen Shi beneath her, and even scratched his chin with her finger.

"We practiced before, so why can't you touch me?"

"Uh... doesn't this count as running into someone?" Chen Shi's eyes widened.

Jiang Liu is not only highly intuitive and skilled at transferring spiritual energy, but her physical combat skills are also top-tier. With the enhancement of her intuition, let alone encountering Jiang Liu, she could easily overturn him to the ground in the blink of an eye if she wanted to.

"Still being stubborn?"

Jiang Liu tightened her long legs slightly, making Chen Shi's waist even tighter.

"cough……"

Chen Shi quickly patted her thigh.

Jiang Liu then released the naked choke, her long legs stretched out and straightened, her toes drawing two curves in the air.

"Your stamina isn't good. Shouldn't your inspiration have improved after this exorcism? Why are you sweating so soon?"

She took a towel and tossed it to Chen Shi.

"Senior sister, you've been practicing the piano for three hours, doing combat training for two hours, plus two rounds of physical sparring... and you're calling me that long?"

Chen Shi took a towel and wiped the sweat from his face.

However, what Jiang Liu said was true; after this spiritual journey, he could clearly feel that his inspiration had been enhanced.

Jiang Liu opened the refrigerator, took out a bottle of coconut juice, and took a few sips, her throat making a "gurgling" sound.

"Let's stop here for today and stretch, otherwise my back will hurt tomorrow."

Just as Jiang Liu finished speaking, her phone suddenly vibrated.

"Ok?"

After reading the message, she gently bit her lip.

That's a sign of irritability.

"What's wrong, Senior Sister Jiang?" Chen Shi stood up.

"Last night, the logistics staff member in charge of handling the bodies from Qiushi Academy died."

After Jiang Liu finished speaking, her expression became slightly serious.

"Last night? Then why is the message only arriving today?" Chen Shi was taken aback. Was the Ferryman's information network really that slow? The person had been dead for a whole day.
