Yang Jian frowned slightly as he looked at Wang Shanshan.

Due to the last school supernatural incident, and then the Ghost Infant incident, he had become quite familiar with her.

He thought that everything should have been fine after he removed the Ghost Slave Mark left by that Ghost Infant on her, especially since Wang Shanshan’s father, Wang Bin, would definitely have called him if there was a problem.

However, this time,

when Yang Jian saw Wang Shanshan again, he found that she had almost become a different person.

Her skin was pale without a hint of blood, emitting an aura akin to that of a corpse, cold and bone-chilling, almost devoid of the vibe of a living person.

She appeared deathly and listless.

But because Wang Shanshan was a young girl, this deathly listlessness was somewhat camouflaged; after all, women tend to appear more yin and soft by nature, so people on the street just thought she was an icy girl, rather than associating her with corpses and death.

After all, she still looked very normal on the surface.

“Uncle Wang, how did Wang Shanshan become like this? If you don’t mind, could you tell me about it?” Yang Jian asked.

Wang Bin was stunned for a moment, then replied bitterly, “There’s nothing to mind, I had intended to discuss this with you for your opinion. At first, Shanshan seemed quite normal, so I thought there was nothing wrong and didn’t want to disturb you, but later I noticed something odd about her body and didn’t think of anything else, just took her to the hospital for a check-up.”

“After putting it off for a while, taking medicine and seeing no improvement, her mother and I started to feel that something might be seriously wrong with Shanshan, so during this class reunion, I brought Wang Shanshan here, taking the opportunity to ask you what exactly is happening to her.”

Yang Jian’s gaze returned from Wang Shanshan; although not a doctor, he couldn’t be sure exactly what changes were happening in her body, but if he wasn’t mistaken, the root of it all was probably the Ghost Slave Mark he left on Wang Shanshan.

Looking at the red eye pattern on her wrist.

It looked lifelike, like a 3D tattoo, as if there really was an eye on her wrist. The longer you stared, the more it seemed to send chills down your spine.

“Can you tell me in detail about Wang Shanshan’s physical condition?”

Yang Jian felt it necessary to know what changes this Ghost Slave Mark could bring to a normal person.

“At first, Shanshan was very normal without any problems, but then she started to behave oddly in just a few days. She would space out for no reason, mumbling and calling out your name,” Wang Bin recalled the past events with a sigh.

“Calling my name?” Yang Jian was somewhat puzzled.

“Yes, I don’t know the exact reason; I asked the doctor, who said that Shanshan had been greatly shocked, and perhaps because you saved her, she had a deep impression of you.”

Yang Jian said, “What happened after that?”

Wang Bin continued, “Not long after, Shanshan began to sleepwalk at night. I learned about it when coming home from work and heard her hitting her head against the door. I don’t know when it started, but around midnight, she would suddenly start sleepwalking, with her eyes closed, trying to leave her room.”

“At first, I locked the door tightly, fearing that Shanshan would wander off and get lost in her sleep. But one time, her mother and I tried to experiment by leaving the door open at night.”

“That time, Shanshan ended up sleepwalking out of the house, even making her way down the stairs and out of the community, almost walking along the road without a destination. I didn’t dare to continue and had to forcibly bring Shanshan back home.”

At this point, he paused, glanced at the pale-faced Wang Shanshan beside him, and went on, “I thought Shanshan must have been under some psychological stress, so I took her to the hospital for an examination.”

“And what the attending physician found was that Shanshan’s heart rate was constantly dropping.”

“A normal person’s heartbeat averages 75 beats per minute, but Shanshan’s heart rate was only in the forties when first measured. That’s a very dangerous state, with an imminent risk of sudden death, and it’s still declining every day. Just yesterday, her heart rate was only twenty beats per minute, and today it might be only in the teens.”

“The doctor in charge no longer dares to treat her. Such a heart rate, theoretically, is not possible for a living person. From a medical viewpoint, twenty beats per minute is a cold-blooded animal’s heartbeat. If this occurs in a human, there’s only one possibility—it’s a body that has just died.”

At these words, Yang Jian’s expression changed subtly.

He didn’t know much about medicine, but from what Wang Bin said, he could understand the situation.

A person whose vital signs indicated that they shouldn’t be alive, yet they were alive and well, able to walk and move.

This was indeed unfathomable.

A very low heart rate means a lowered body temperature, slower metabolism, and sluggish blood flow throughout the body.

No wonder Wang Shanshan looked so pale and had a coldness about her.

“Is there anything else besides this?” Yang Jian asked finally.

Wang Bin replied, “This situation is already very bad. If Shanshan’s condition continues like this, her heart will probably stop beating soon. If that happens, is my daughter still… human?”

After saying this, fear and apprehension appeared on the grown man’s face.

“`

A daughter without a heartbeat.

Is this a human, or a ghost?

“Uncle Wang should have considered this situation at the time,” Yang Jian said seriously, “To get rid of that Ghost Infant, a corresponding price had to be paid, and I had already mentioned the price in advance.”

“But this price is too high,” Wang Bin said with some regret.

Yang Jian replied, “It’s still better than being eaten by that Ghost Infant at the time. At least you still have a daughter, she’s still alive, just with a slightly complicated physical condition. But you can rest assured, Wang Shanshan is human… at least until I die.”

As long as he was alive, Wan Shanshan could live.

Once he died, Wang Shanshan would completely transform into a Ghost Slave.

Losing all life signs and consciousness as well.

Therefore, Yang Jian was certain that Wang Shanshan would continue living in this state in the future.

“Is this a Ghost Slave?”

He glanced at the pale-faced Wang Shanshan.

At this moment, Wang Shanshan gave Yang Jian a faint smile, which seemed normal.

“No, the transformation isn’t complete, not a Ghost Slave. Although the life signs are weak, the essence of being a human wouldn’t change,” Yang Jian thought to himself.

As for whether there would be other changes in the future, he wasn’t sure.

Further observation was needed.

Ghost Slave.

It seemed to be more than what it appeared on the surface.

Yang Jian had encountered Ghost Slaves at school before, like the Door Knocking Ghost’s Ghost Slave, which was almost indistinguishable from a fierce ghost.

“What are you guys chatting about for so long? Just now, I’ve booked a private room in the nearby hotel. Let’s go eat first, and later I’ll treat you to KTV. When night falls, you know what I mean,” Zhang Wei came over at this time, looking incredibly sleazy.

The shock of potentially having ghosts in his house seemed to have no impact on him whatsoever.

Yang Jian said, “We weren’t talking about much, just discussing some school matters with Uncle Wang. By the way, is everyone here? Just a few of us?”

Zhang Wei replied, “Miao Xiaoshan will be here in a bit. Sun Ren, that guy, dashed off five days ago, transferring to another province. He’s definitely not coming. That kid is such a thief, telling us now. Before, he kept saying he would definitely make it.”

“Liu Qi’s family had an emergency, he’s gone back to his hometown for the funeral. I heard his grandparents in the countryside had an accident, not sure if it’s true or not, but he doesn’t seem like someone who would joke about his family’s life and death. I’m going to give him the benefit of the doubt this time.”

“So, it’s just the five of us for this gathering. Uh, Uncle Wang, are you coming?”

Wang Bin smiled, “I’m here to accompany Shanshan. It’s not my place to interfere in the young people’s business. Shanshan isn’t feeling well, so call me immediately if anything happens, I’ll be right over.”

Although his wife didn’t want Wang Shanshan to come out, he felt that such a gathering was necessary.

Not to mingle with others, but to be with Yang Jian.

Because this person… was extraordinary.

“Yang Jian, could you take care of Shanshan for me?”

Yang Jian replied, “Uncle Wang, don’t worry, all of us are here, nothing untoward will happen to Shanshan.”

“With your word, I feel at ease. Then I’ll be off, Shanshan, you should talk more with your classmates, you’ve been too quiet lately, which isn’t good for your health,” Wang Bin added another word of caution, then drove off.

“Is Wang Shanshan sick?” As soon as he left, Zhang Wei asked curiously again.

“Didn’t you hear what was just said?” Yang Jian asked.

Zhang Wei replied, “I heard it.”

“Yet you still ask me.”

“I don’t quite understand it,” Zhang Wei said, “It feels like something’s up, but then again, it seems like nothing’s wrong, I’m not clear whether there’s an issue or not.”

After saying this, he spread his hands in a helpless gesture.

“Then there’s no issue,” Yang Jian said.
