The young couple looked at each other, and then the woman asked, "Brother, what are you going to do to make our business better?"
I looked around, then lowered my voice and said to the young couple, "My method is very simple. Remove the Zhong Kui statue from your house and demolish the wall that was previously expanded."
"What? You want to tear down the wall?"
"Brother, you are not mistaken, are you? We just built that wall a few months ago, and now you want to tear it down, and you even say that it will help our business. Why do I listen to your mysterious words? Brother, you are not deliberately playing tricks on us, are you?"
The woman said unhappily.
I didn't get angry, and said frankly: "I'm telling the truth. Do you know why your business is so quiet during this period?"
"That's because of the wall you built to expand your home. That wall blocked the ghost gate between the underworld and the living world, so ghosts couldn't enter the underworld. That's why they brought their resentment into your store."
"If you want your business to prosper and return to the way it was before, you must tear down that wall. Otherwise, your business will continue to be bleak. And over time, I'm afraid you two will also be affected by the ghost."
Who would have thought that after hearing what I said, the young man's face suddenly drooped.
With a gloomy face, he angrily said, "Big Brother, what on earth are you doing? Why are you here to tear down our wall? The wall is there perfectly fine and has not caused any trouble for you. There is no need for you to curse our family like this!!"
See, my kindness has been taken for granted!
I frowned unhappily and said in a serious tone, "What I said is true. If you don't follow my instructions, something bad will happen sooner or later."
But the young man didn't believe it at all.
He rolled up his sleeves, showing his tattooed arm, and threatened me, "Hey, big brother, if you come to my restaurant to eat barbecue, I welcome you. But if you come here to make trouble, don't blame me for being rude."
"I, Zhou Jiang, am not someone you can easily mess with!!"
The woman on the side also said coldly: "Yes, our business is not good, but it has not reached the point where we have attracted any ghosts, right? Just look at the way you two are dressed, and I know you are not good people. If you want to eat barbecue, eat it quickly. If not, leave here quickly. Otherwise, we will call the police."
Damn it, this young couple is so difficult and stubborn.
The young monk Yuquan looked at the couple and his eyes fell on me again.
After a while, Yuquan whispered to me, "Brother Yang, let's eat first, otherwise the skewers and kidneys will get cold. As for their family affairs, let's not worry about them for now."
I glared at Yuquan and shouted, "Shut up! What nonsense are you talking about? Even eating can't shut your mouth!"
Yuquan was so scolded by me that he stopped talking.
I faced the young couple and said unhappily, "Well, since you two don't believe me, I'll make you believe me. But don't blame us if we scare you later."
The young man's name is Zhou Jiang, and his wife's name is Lingling.
Zhou Jiang snorted coldly and said unhappily, "What do you mean by saying that? You are so mysterious! You will scare us later. I, Zhou Jiang, was not brought up to be scared."
I have no other choice. Since they won't listen to my kind words, I have to take real action.
At this time, the eyes of the guests from the other two tables also fell on us, with curiosity in their eyes.
In order to avoid misunderstanding, I stood up and reached out to hold Zhou Jiang's arm, "Come with me, I will prove my words to you now.
It’s not fake.”
Then, with Zhou Jiang reluctantly, I dragged him to the open space next to me.
Zhou Jiang's wife Lingling also followed.
Seeing that no one was paying attention to us, I took out the Crow's Tears from my cloth bag.
Seeing me take out a porcelain bottle, Zhou Jiang asked angrily, "What do you want to do now? Do you have no money to eat and want to default on your debt?!"
I curled my lips and sneered rudely: "Don't worry! I have money and I won't default on my debts! I'm helping you. Otherwise, do you think I'd be willing to meddle in your business?"
Then, I raised my finger and used the "acupoint tapping method", pressing on the Dingshen point and the Ya point on Zhou Jiang's body.
Just as Zhou Jiang was about to shake off my arm, his body was fixed there.
Seeing this, Lingling, the female boss at the side, showed a look of horror on her face, "You, you, you...what did you do to my husband?"
Worried that the female boss Lingling would scream out, I quickly used the acupoint tapping method to stabilize the female boss's body and seal her mute point.
After being frozen, both of them looked stunned.
They don't know what I did to them.
As for the ghosts of the dead in their bodies, they did not attack me, because the "acupoint tapping method" did not touch their souls, so it did not pose a threat to them.
Without hesitation, I poured out a few drops of crow's tears from the porcelain bottle, dipped my hands in them, and smeared them on the eyelids of the young couple.
When they saw the changes around them clearly, the faces of the two people suddenly changed and turned as pale as paper.
The ghosts were floating in front of the empty round tables, flying back and forth. Many of the ghosts looked very scary. One bloody ghost had its stomach ruptured, and its body was still very fat, with blood gushing down from its soul.
In addition to the blood, you can also see the white fat in its belly!
Of course, these are just the appearances of the ghosts when they died, and what is revealed are just their illusory images before they died.
Despite this, the young couple was still frightened.
The woman Lingling's pants were wet, obviously she was scared to pee.
I raised the corner of my mouth slightly, sneered, and said softly to the young couple: "This time you should believe what I say, right!?"
The young couple could not move their bodies, nor could they utter a sound. They could only blink their eyelids.
Seeing that the couple understood what was going on, I quickly went behind them and helped them unblock the fixed and mute points on their bodies.
The acupuncture points were released, and the woman's body softened, and she collapsed to the ground. Sweat was pouring down her forehead and white neck.
Her eyes were somewhat dull and her body was shaking as if it were being sieved.
As for Zhou Jiang, his upper and lower jaws kept trembling.
He faced me and asked me stutteringly, "How... How could this happen? Why are there so many monsters in our barbecue restaurant? Why is this happening? ... We haven't done anything against the law, why are they gathering here?"
Many people in the distance noticed the young couple's actions.
I lowered my voice and said to them, "Don't panic. I am a Taoist priest who catches ghosts. We will help you. Don't worry, the problem at your home is easy to solve. I will help you later."
Then I didn't say anything more, and walked around the young couple and went towards the young monk Yuquan.
When Yuquan saw me coming back, he asked me, "Brother Yang, what is going on? Have you figured out the cause of the incident? Otherwise, you wouldn't have given those two
People wipe away the crow's tears. "
I smiled and said, "Of course I figured out the cause of the incident!"
"Brother Yang, why did these ghosts appear here? Tell me quickly, you are making me feel as anxious as a cat scratching me!?"
I nodded and then told Yuquan all my findings.
Yuquan was also surprised, and he muttered, "... I wonder why these ghosts gathered here and refused to leave. It turns out that the expansion of this barbecue restaurant has blocked the ghosts' door."
"Now that we know the cause of the incident, it will be easy to resolve!"
I nodded and said, "Indeed, these ghosts are not difficult to deal with. However, we have to wait until all the people in the food stalls here have left before we can take action."
Yuquan nodded but said nothing.
Then Yuquan and I sat down at the table and started to feast.
After knowing the whole story, the young couple treated Yuquan and I differently this time. We didn't ask for tea, but they took the initiative to bring it up, along with some other barbecued food.
Yuquan and I didn't hesitate to help them exorcise the ghosts and eat some of their food.
By the time Yuquan and I finished our meal, it was already past eleven o'clock in the evening, almost twelve o'clock.
At this time, most of the customers in the food stall had already left.
The customers at the young couple's barbecue stall have all left.
After a while, Yuquan and I stood up and walked directly towards the young couple who were standing in the distance and watching us.
The two of them were standing there trembling. The Crow's Tears had not yet lost their effect, so they could still see the ghosts flying around.
It’s no wonder they are scared. If it were me, I would also be scared if I encountered such a thing for the first time.
Seeing us coming towards them, the young couple hurried over to greet us.
However, at this moment, their faces looked as if they were seriously ill and had lost all color.
"Master, you have to save us, otherwise my husband and I will be completely finished. Both of our families are single-line descendants, and they rely on us two to carry on the family line. If we die, our Zhou and Wang families will be completely cut off from the incense!"
The woman, Lingling, cried and grabbed my arm and said she would not let go no matter what.
Zhou Jiang on the side was also full of excitement and sincerity, and pleaded: "Two masters, I know you are all masters, you must save us. We want to survive, even if we don't have this barbecue stall. As long as those ghosts stop bothering us, it will be fine."
When talking about ghosts haunting them, the dead ghost lying on Zhou Jiang's back suddenly opened his eyes. A bit of death appeared in the eyes of its soul, and it seemed that it had noticed our intentions.
The dead ghost stretched out his tongue and probed towards Zhou Jiang's eyebrows.
It seems that this dead ghost wants to kill Zhou Jiang directly so that he can completely devour Zhou Jiang's brain.
I can't just sit there and do nothing. No one's paying attention to this place anymore.
I directly took out the ghost-exorcising talisman from my cloth bag.
When the incantation is recited, the good energy is infused into the talisman and the exorcist talisman burns instantly.
With a "puff" sound, the ghost-exorcising talisman hit the soul of the unjustly dead ghost hard.
The dead ghost was so frightened that he left Zhou Jiang's body.
The dead ghost in the body of the female boss Lingling on the side also realized how powerful I was. It screamed "Ga Ga Ga" and quickly left her body.
I waved my hands at Zhou Jiang and the others and said quickly, "Let's go to your little house. Once we get there, I'll help you get rid of these ghosts."
