The yellow talismans are located in the five directions of east, west, south, north and center, trapping the evil spirits tightly.
Chen Ling clenched the black thread in his hand and tried his best to pull the evil ghost away, but failed: "Wu Weiwei, come and help me."
Wu Weiwei hurriedly ran down the stairs, and with great effort, he finally dragged the evil ghost in front of him.
Looking at that disgusting face, Chen Ling began to worry, not knowing how to deal with it. With his current level, he was not yet at the point where he could summon the ghost messenger from the underworld to detain the evil ghost.
You still have to find a master to take care of the aftermath.
Zhao Xunchang had known that his apprentice would come to look for him, so he answered the phone as soon as it rang: "Open the door, I'm right at the door."
Chen Ling was afraid that the evil ghost would run away, so he kept holding the plumb line in his hand and did not dare to let go. In the end, it was Wu Weiwei who opened the door.
Zhao Xunchang was carrying the coolness of the early morning and the moisture of the dew. After entering the room, he stood there and looked at it for a while, then commented: "You are quite smart. You know that the talisman you drew is not effective enough, so you add more."
With the arrival of the master, Chen Ling became more confident.
He threw away the black ink line and chanted, "Heaven and earth have generals who will slay the evil and eradicate the wicked. If the gods are angry, they will grind the bones into ashes. Hurry up and obey the command."
The five talismans that suppress all evil spirits seemed to have eyes and were all pasted on the evil ghosts.
The shrill screams broke the silence of the village. Gao Qing's eyes were filled with tears and blood. Her face was covered in blood. Her arms, which had been tied behind her back, had broken free without anyone noticing.
There were deep wounds on her hands that could be seen to the bone, but she was like a walking corpse, not feeling any pain, and she kept shouting, "No one can hurt him, no one can hurt him..."
Wu Weiwei was the first to notice her: "Brother Chen, be careful of Gao Qing!"
Chen Ling glanced at the unconscious Mr. Gao, and it seemed that he had no choice but to do it himself. He grabbed Gao Qing, who was rushing towards the evil ghost, with one hand, and with his other hand, palm down, he chopped down with gravity.
Gao Qing's body stiffened and she collapsed to the ground.
The evil spirit suppression talisman lost its effect and turned into ashes. Zhao Xunchang walked over, picked up the ink line hanging on the ground, and tied up the evil spirit that was no longer able to struggle. Finally, he tightened the end of the line and pulled hard.
The ink line shrank into a ball, squeezing the evil spirit inside.
Chen Ling said to Wu Weiwei, "Go up and bring down the dead fetus."
When he thought of the face with a piece of flesh missing, Wu Weiwei shuddered and rushed upstairs with goose bumps all over his body. He ran downstairs holding the dead fetus squirming in his belly and put it at Chen Ling's feet.
Chen Ling picked up the dead fetus, touched his head with pity, and handed it to his master.
Zhao Xunchang held them with one hand, and with the other hand he weighed the ball of string that trapped the evil spirits, and told his apprentice: "I will take them back first and ask the Yin spirits to come up and take them away. You stay here to clean up the mess and collect the debt."
Chen Ling: "Okay, Master."
The door of the villa was opened and then closed again. Wu Weiwei then walked over from the coffee table in the distance and said, "Brother Chen, you are awesome."
Even though the master is not around, he still wants to flatter. Chen Ling corrected him: "I am not awesome, my master is the most awesome."
How could a younger brother refute his elder brother? Wu Weiwei agreed repeatedly and gave a thumbs up: "Master is like this, with a fairy-like appearance, hidden and profound, a model of a master."
Chen Ling felt happy after hearing this. Just as a smile appeared on his face, he heard a gurgling sound.
I lowered my eyes and looked at my stomach. I was hungry after being active all night.
Together with Wu Weiwei, Chen Ling moved Mr. Gao and Gao Qing to lie down on the sofa. Then he rolled up his sleeves and went to the kitchen to cook a pot of millet porridge and boiled some eggs. Just as he was pulling out a tissue to wipe his hands, a black figure flashed past him.
Thinking it was Wu Weiwei, Chen Ling said without even looking up: "It will be ready soon."
"Remember to clean every morning and evening, and burn three incense sticks." The deep, mellow male voice stuck to my ears along with my breathing.
Chen Ling: “…” Mr. Jiang really has a lot of requirements.
"Also," the man paused, put his hand on the back of the young man's neck, and suggested, "Next time before you go out, remember to print the Yellow God Yue Zhang seal on the talisman paper, and then recite the exorcism spell three times."
Chen Ling didn't say anything and turned around abruptly. The man had already left from behind him, and his tall and strong back, trimmed by a suit, flashed past the door.
You don't need to chase to know that Jiang Yu will disappear once he walks out of this door.
Chen Ling never expected that the ancestor would come to instruct him again. He felt very complicated for a moment and pressed his forehead against the wall in distress. The cold touch failed to calm his anxious heart, but instead reminded him of the breath that just passed by his ear.
The stove made a few hissing sounds and the millet porridge was about to overflow.
Chen Ling came to his senses, ran over to turn off the fire, and scooped up the thick millet porridge and eggs.
The mood affected by Jiang Yu was quickly dispelled by the delicious breakfast. Chen Ling took a sip from the bowl with satisfaction, and Wu Weiwei shamelessly sat over and ate with him.
Mr. Gao woke up to the temptation of breakfast, and the first person he saw when he opened his eyes was his wife.
Gao Qing's hand was badly injured, with a piece of bone exposed on the back of her wrist, which made people feel scared and distressed.
Not long after, she woke up and looked at her husband blankly. When she heard the noise, she turned to look at the two young men at the dinner table. Her blank brain could not find any information related to the current situation.
Chen Ling was full and brought the rest of the breakfast to the coffee table in the living room: "Eat something first."
Gao Qing's eyes watered with pain as soon as she moved her hand. Mr. Gao felt so distressed that he wiped the dried blood and tears from his wife's face with wet tissues and comforted her in a gentle voice, "Wipe your face first, I'll take you to the hospital right away."
Gao Qing was so hungry that her hands were in so much pain that she couldn't move them, so she just leaned over and drank the porridge with a pouty mouth.
Chen Ling sat down on the sofa next to him: "Ms. Gao, do you remember where you went on the first day of the tenth month of the lunar calendar last year, which was the night of November 28th?"
Gao Qing swallowed a mouthful of millet porridge and stared at the young man in a daze: "November 28th..."
The confusion of more than half a year was blown away by a cool breeze with the arrival of this moment.
The face that had just been wiped clean was soaked again.
Gao Qing sobbed and said, "I went to the hospital for a prenatal check-up on a whim that day, and the doctor told me...that my child..." She looked down at her belly, and the bulge disappeared.
Mr. Gao responded from his wife’s shocked and bewildered expression: “My wife doesn’t seem to remember.”
"Once a person is possessed by a ghost and the ghost dies, his mind is no longer controlled and his consciousness naturally recovers. But people with weak consciousness usually don't remember the period in between." Wu Weiwei was very satisfied after eating and sat down not far from Chen Ling.
Mr. Gao still disliked him, so he turned to look at Chen Ling. When he saw the young man nodded, he told his wife what had happened during this period.
After hearing this, Gao Qing showed a regretful expression.
"That day, I couldn't accept the fact that my fetus had stopped beating and that I was going to have to have my baby removed, so I wanted to go out for a walk in the middle of the night. Because of my mood, I didn't pay much attention to my surroundings, and unknowingly walked to a deserted road. I remember that there were many people burning paper on the road, some for their wives, and some for their dead children..."
The memory was already blurred. Gao Qing recalled for a moment and continued, "I was touched by those sad faces, so I sat down on the side of the road. I don't know how long I sat there. My mood calmed down a little, and I stood up to leave, and suddenly I felt someone holding my hand."
The hand was cold, the fingers were slender yet sticky, and it was hard to tell whether it was a man or a woman.
Gao Qing couldn't remember the man's face, she only remembered that man said to her: "I can bring your child back to life."
What a temptation this is for a mother who is about to lose her child completely.
Gao Qing said without thinking: "As long as you can save him, I'm willing to do anything."
The man's face was pale under the street light, his features were blurred, and then he gently put his hand on Gao Qing's shoulder and kept leaning his face closer...
The memory stops abruptly.
Gao Qing covered her face: "I shouldn't have agreed to him."
She thought the other person was a life-saving Bodhisattva, but she didn't expect that under the mask of disguise, there was a man-eating evil ghost.
The evil ghost used the "child" as a rope and treated her as a puppet, manipulating her to seek nutrients for him to survive in the world of the living.
Not only that, but her family was in turmoil. If her husband had not refused to give up and asked a master to come, she could not imagine whether she was in the human world or hell at this moment.
Mr. Gao was very grateful for Chen Ling's professional ability and service attitude, and offered him a remuneration three times that of Wu Weiwei.
Chen Ling happily put away the check and advised: "Ms. Gao's foundation has been damaged by the evil spirit. It is best for her to recuperate for a few more years before having a child."
Gao Qing felt uneasy when she recalled that the evil spirit had entered her stomach and had to be removed by surgery. Mr. Gao hurriedly held his wife's hand to comfort her and nodded to Chen Ling to indicate that he would do as he was told.
Having said what needed to be said, Chen Ling stood up to say goodbye. He looked at Gao Qing, who was pale and melancholy.
"Ms. Gao, do you have anything else to say?"
"I..." Gao Qing lowered her eyelashes, her dark eyes flickering across the smooth floor, "Mr. Chen, what are you going to do with that child?"
Chen Ling waited quietly for her next words.
Gao Qing said: "After all, it is the flesh that fell from my body. If possible, can I rebury him?"
"Of course, but that can only be done after the soul of the baby trapped in the body is freed." At this point, Chen Ling thought of Zhang Xiaoxia, who was also a poor mother who doted on her children.
Chen Ling slapped his forehead, thinking that he should have reminded his master to send away those infant spirits a little later.
"Mr. Gao, Mrs. Gao, I have something to do, so I'll leave first." After saying that, he ran away, took out his cell phone and asked his master how the matter was handled.
Zhao Xunchang must have been busy on the other end and didn't answer the call.
Chen Ling ran all the way to the courtyard, and before he had time to catch his breath, the moment he pushed open the door, he heard a whimpering sound.
Zhang Xiaoxia came out crying, clutching the clothes on her chest, and knelt down as soon as she saw Chen Ling.
Chen Ling hurriedly supported her and glanced at the master at the door. He estimated that Zhang Xiaoxia should have seen Xiaobao, so he comforted her softly: "Sister Zhang, Xiaobao has just come to the world and has not had any karma, let alone committed any evil. He will be reincarnated soon in the netherworld, and he will be happy and healthy in the next life."
Zhang Xiaoxia was choked with sobs and couldn't speak.
Chen Ling patted her shoulder, thought for a moment, gestured to his master, and personally sent her home.
Coming back, Zhao Xunchang handed something wrapped in white cloth to his apprentice. When he opened it, he saw the body of a very thin baby.
Three days later, Zhang Xiaoxia and Gao Qing's children were buried together in Yuhe Cemetery. Because they were cremated in the middle of the process, they were buried in a temporary urn.
Two black marble urns were placed in the tomb and covered not far from each other. Although the grass and trees around them were withered and yellow, there were blue sky and white clouds in the distance.
Chen Ling did not follow the others down the mountain. Instead, he squatted on the ground and used his fingers to pull away the dead grass.
Beneath the shriveled weeds, there is a bit of green hidden in the yellow soil, which is the newly sprouted grass.
The lake water at the foot of the mountain is still pitch black, but if you smell it carefully, you will find that the smell is no longer as disgusting as before.
Chen Ling ran down the mountain again and went around to the side of the courtyard. The small tree bud that had grown earlier had grown nearly an inch taller.
It stretched its delicate arms hard towards the bright sunshine.
Maybe one day, Yuhe Mountain can really return to what my mother described, surrounded by lush greenery and lush grass.
Chen Ling's heart was filled with hope. This hope turned into strength, giving him unlimited energy to do anything.
The first thing to do is to go to the Jiang family and see if you can dig up some old gossip about the Jiang domain.
