The water ghost used to be a social elite that everyone envied.
His name was Wang Xian. Not only did he have a well-educated, beautiful, and virtuous wife, but he also had a successful career and was worth millions at a young age.
After two years of marriage, his wife gave birth to a cute baby.
But what others did not know was that Wang Xian's wife did not love him, but she needed his money.
This was a very old-fashioned love triangle story. Under Wang Xian's deliberate manipulation and the high cost of living, his wife was forced to marry him, who was very wealthy at the time.
But Wang Xian had a problem. Every time he drank, he had to find something to vent.
The first time, Wang Xian smashed a vase at home.
Later, Wang Xian began to smash his phone, throw his books, and chop the table. In the end, he started to beat his wife, who he always thought didn't love him.
During the peak of the company's business season, Wang Xian's wife was always covered in bruises.
When she found out that she was pregnant, Wang Xian came to his senses and vowed to treat her well. From then on, he never laid a hand on her again.
The short period after his wife gave birth to a cute baby was the sweetest for Wang Xian.
It was as if the child was a bond that could allow the relationship between the two to improve and his wife would stay by his side.
It was because of this mentality that one night after Wang Xian was drunk, he could not help but beat his wife again.

This time, his wife did not resist and did not cry. She walked ten kilometers and jumped off a bridge far away from home.
The next night, Wang Xian also jumped off the bridge with his child.

He thought he could catch up with his wife and child, but he did not.
He became an ugly and disgusting water ghost stuck in the stinky mud at the bottom of the river.
"So, do you understand now?"
However, the water ghost didn't answer. He was still staring at the little skeleton in his arms in a daze, thinking about something.
When his figure began to fade, his evil energy surged out of his body. He seemed to want to take the little skeleton with him. His hands were flailing in panic, but he couldn't catch anything.
"That doesn't belong to you," Yun Qin said indifferently.
As the last trace of the fishy smell disappeared, the underwood gained another wandering soul that was ready for reincarnation.

Yun Qin frowned when she remembered what she found in Wang Xian's memories.
The sudden change in Wang Xian's temperament as well as suddenly getting rich reminded her of an extremely fierce ghost: the fortune-seeking ghost.
In Wang Xian's memories, there seemed to be a shrine in his house. More than likely, the shrine was raising a fortune-seeking ghost.
In the upper-class circles of some economically developed regions, they were also known as "ash ghosts" or "godsons.".
Fortune-seeking ghosts do attract and amass wealth, and the requirements to raise it were very simple. A small pot of incense ash and a drop of blood from the host's fingertips every week would do.
However, what most didn't know was that the source of the fortune-seeking ghost's ability was not incense ash, but the lifespan of the host. Not only would it suck the vitality of the living, but it would also affect the aura of the living.
When the aura of a person did not fit with the surroundings, extremely violent emotions would arise. Presumably, the tragedy of Wang Xian and his wife was because of this.
However, Wang Xian did not seem to know that he was raising a fortune-seeking ghost. He never changed the incense ashes in time and he never dripped blood from his fingertips.
This caused the fortune-seeking ghost in Wang Xian's house to become more and more out of control. In the end, it evolved into a situation where it indirectly killed people.
The reason why Wang Xian became a ghost was that over the years, under the influence of the fortune-seeking ghost, he became a vessel that stored evil energy.
Therefore, through all sorts of coincidences, Wang Xian became a water ghost that possessed the gold watch in the river. He was originally trapped near the watch and couldn't go find his child. Then Mr. Liu brought him home, making it even harder for him to find his child. That was why he was so angry that he was strangling the old man every night and sucking his vitality.
"Ji Ji Ji?" The greedy ghost jumped into Yun Qin's arms and danced around as if he wanted to attract Yun Qin's attention.
"Are you asking why? Because the child isn't his. His wife took revenge on him."
2
The water ghost's wish was to find the child, not to know the truth about the child, so she did not expose it.
Just as Yun Qin was lamenting that karma was good in this world, the greedy ghost scratched its head and started thinking after hearing Yun Qin's explanation.
Suddenly, it raised its head again and bared its teeth as it gestured at Yun Qin.
"What? Yun Rou? What's wrong with her?" Yun Qin was very confused.
