The woman straightened her waist suddenly and struggled. The red thread tied to her body was instantly tightened by her, and it seemed to be broken by her.
Accompanied by screams, burn marks appeared in the places where the grapefruit leaves were splashed with water, but they returned to their original state in just a moment.
"lady!"
At this time, the man sitting behind everyone stood up suddenly and looked nervously at the painful-looking woman behind the altar.
Only then did Yu Jiuxu notice that this member Chen looked young, probably in his early thirties at most, and he was quite handsome.
Obviously, the woman tied to the chair with the red thread was Mrs. Chen. Recalling Xu Changliu's words, the recent deaths were all pregnant women who were about to give birth.
In demonic cultivation, there is indeed an extremely cruel practice method. Using a baby as a guide, the skill can be greatly increased in a short time. It is best for those who are eight or nine months old and have not yet given birth. This month of Mrs. Chen's is about the same. Obviously It fits the criteria.
Seeing Mr. Chen rushing up, the old Taoist hurriedly stepped forward to stop him. He said in a serious tone: "Mr. Chen, please be patient. As a poor Taoist, my wife must be haunted by evil spirits. Wait for the poor Taoist to cast a spell to catch her. Madam. It’s okay.”
Upon hearing this, he was probably eager to save his wife. Without thinking, Chen Yuanwai responded directly: "Then please take action quickly. Remuneration is not an issue. As long as my wife is fine, I will definitely not ask Dao Changbai to work." !”
"Okay!" The old Taoist agreed immediately, with great pride: "With Master Chen's words, I will definitely save my wife from the fire and water even if I go up the sword mountain or the sea of fire!"
As he spoke, he motioned for Chen to take a few steps back to a safe distance, then put down the gold platinum and grapefruit leaves in his hands, picked up the peach wood sword beside him, grabbed the paper money on the altar and threw it into the air.
He shouted: "Yin and Yang are divided into two paths. Humans and ghosts end up in different paths. Go back to your underworld. Don't be greedy for my underworld soul!"
Then he shouted, jumped onto the altar with a backflip, used his strength under his feet, and stabbed the peach wood sword in his hand at the woman. Everyone's hearts seemed to tighten.
Suddenly, there was a "boom" sound, and a human-shaped kid suddenly emerged from the woman's body and rushed towards the old man. The old man had no time to dodge and was directly knocked away by the kid. He fell heavily to the side. On the empty shelf, I couldn't get up for a long time.
The kid suddenly jumped onto the altar and overthrew all the fragrant wax talismans on the altar. He squatted on the altar and screamed at everyone, scaring the people in the yard to scream and run away.
Even Luo Mingxiu was so frightened that he couldn't help but draw his sword, but Fengyun Shu raised his hand to hold it down. He frowned and looked at the ferocious-looking kid squatting on the altar, but he had no intention of taking action.
"Senior brother!" Ye Qingyao frowned worriedly and asked Fengyun Shu for instructions if he should take action. Fengyun Shu remained silent as before, seeming to have noticed something was wrong, but for a moment he couldn't tell what was wrong.
Suddenly, the kid jumped down from the altar and ran straight towards the crowd nearby. The surrounding maids and servants were so frightened that they hid in all directions, and screams broke out one after another.
The kid was wreaking havoc in the yard, jumping on the table and overturning the tea, jumping on people's backs and pulling their hair, jumping up and scratching the maid's face...
Until he rushed towards Yu Jiuxu, grinning like this, which frightened everyone so much that they stepped back in fear. Only Yu Jiuxu stood where he was, looking up and making eye contact with him.
Her eyes were cold, and there was a trace of blood in her eyes. The kid was startled and fell to the ground suddenly. He couldn't control it. He couldn't keep his four claws steady and slid directly to Yu Jiuxu's feet.
He didn't waste a moment, stood up quickly, and took a few steps back. He cautiously distanced himself from her, curled up, and kept making "scare" sounds in his throat, but his body couldn't help but step back. , just like a demonstration that animals are ready to escape at any time when they are afraid.
At this time, the old Taoist who was knocked out had already recovered. He picked up the mahogany sword, rolled up his sleeves, and said to the kid: "Okay, if you don't drink the toast, you will have to drink as a penalty! Watch the sword!"
As he spoke, he flew up and struck the kid on the top of his head with a sword. He didn't know if he had no time to dodge, but the wooden sword fell down and hit the center of his eyebrow. The kid let out a tragic scream and instantly turned into a blue light.
The old Taoist quickly took out the Bagua Tips bag and put it in it. Then he stretched as if he was done and said to Mr. Chen: "Okay, okay, the evil spirit has been eliminated. Mr. Chen doesn't have to worry, Mrs. Ling is fine. "
As he said that, he raised his eyes and looked in the direction of Fengyunshu's people, with a hint of provocation and indifference in his eyes: "Young masters, it's better to go back quickly. The work here has been done. I'm really sorry to ask you all. The little master’s journey was in vain.”
Chen Yuanwai looked at the bag of tips in the old Taoist's hand, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and said quickly: "Quickly, Taoist Master, please stay. Chen has ordered people to prepare wine and food, so I must thank the Taoist Master."
When the old Taoist heard this, he immediately beamed with joy: "Mr. Chen, you're welcome. It is my duty as a Taoist to subjugate and eliminate demons."
Before he finished speaking, he saw a few boys coming out with two trays of shiny silver. Not only the old man, but also Yu Jiuxu immediately looked straight at it. According to a rough estimate, there were three or four hundred taels at least.
Oops, tsk tsk, you are really rich.
Raise a kid, be a great dancer, and act in a play, and you can earn so much?
I had known earlier that she would join this profession, but now it seems it’s not too late.
Just as Yu Jiuxu was thinking about it, he heard Chen Yuanwai say: "It's a small thought, but it's disrespectful. Please accept it, Taoist Priest. Don't think it's too little."
"I don't dislike it, I don't dislike it." The old Taoist said repeatedly, and he hurriedly walked to the pile of shining silver coins and looked at them, feeling sad for a while.
Looking at Yu Jiuxu, she felt like she was going to get jealous. If it were her, she wouldn't dislike it.
Thinking about it, she shamelessly approached and said with a smile: "Taoist Master, are you still accepting disciples? I can do everything..."
"Xian'er!" Before Yu Jiuxu could finish his words, Ye Qingyao grabbed him by the collar and pulled him back, throwing him among several people.
Luo Mingxiu glanced at her with some contempt: "You are really shameless." Even Xiao Xingzhou rolled his eyes at her, looking pretentious and disdainful of others.
Yu Jiuxu rolled his eyes unceremoniously and went back. Can his face be eaten? It's really hard for me to follow you. Every one of you is genuine. If it weren't for Su Luochen, I'd probably have starved to death.
"What's wrong with your nose?" Mu Wenlan looked at her and asked in confusion.
This question made Yu Jiuxu instantly think of the unpleasant memories. Although it was not as serious as before, there were still some red wounds on the bridge of his nose that had not subsided.
She laughed dryly: "It's nothing, it was an accident."
Just as he was talking, Mr. Chen stepped forward to check on Mrs. Chen. Seeing that she had no reaction, she was still staring ahead with blank eyes.
"Taoist Master," Chen Yuanwai was a little anxious and asked hurriedly: "My wife still doesn't respond no matter how I call her, what should I do?"
Hearing this, the old man hurriedly pulled away from the happiness of money, coughed twice, and said seriously: "Mr. Chen, don't worry, madam, this is normal, you need a buffer period, maybe a few days or a few hours. "
Hearing this, Officer Chen felt relieved and quickly asked someone to untie the red rope from Mrs. Chen's body, and then carried her back to her room to rest.
Yu Jiuxu just looked at it, squinting his eyes slightly, but of course he didn't react. The kid and the Taoist priest were in the same group, and they were just here to cheat money.
Thinking about it, she turned her head and glanced at Fengyun Shu, only to see him frowning. He obviously felt something, but his cultivation was still shallow, so he was probably not sure whether his feeling was correct.
