Old Yan noticed my questioning look and immediately put a finger to his lips as if to keep quiet. I suddenly felt an eerie chill all around me. Damn it, there’s an evil spirit coming. The aura of this evil spirit is quite powerful.
Soon after, Lu Fei, Wang Zijun and Shan Mingshan also realized something was wrong. They all picked up the peach wood sword, copper coin sword and yellow talisman from the ground. Even Old Yan took out the Qilin handkerchief.
As I reached into my bag to touch the copper coin, I saw three ghost shadows faintly appear in front of me.
Shit, it was the Seventh Master and the Eighth Master who came. The Eighth Master was holding an iron chain to tie up the ghost of Lao Qian. I was shocked. The two masters were hooking ghosts who had died of old age. This meant that Lao Qian was doomed. But there was no need for iron chains, unless the ghosts refused to go to the underworld, they would be tortured. Why did they make such a fuss just after Lao Qian died
Qiye smiled at me and said, "Mr. Xi, nice to see you again. When are you in the store? We can pick up something when we pass by."
Oh, I’ve been wandering outside for some time, and the offerings I promised to them have not been delivered yet.
I was about to speak when I saw Old Yan and Lu Fei about to start a fight, so I quickly reached out to stop them. It seemed that the Seventh Master and the Eighth Master only showed up to me to ask for offerings, and no one else could see it.
"Masters Seventh and Eighth, it's a pleasure to meet you. I'm afraid I can't go back." I said to them with a sad face.
When everyone heard that it was the Seventh Master and the Eighth Master, except for Su Yao, they were all shocked. No matter who it was, who would not be afraid of the two brothers, especially those who were in the profession of heavenly masters, who were even more afraid of offending the two ghosts of impermanence. They were originally eating the food of the underworld, and they had more contact with them. If they were to make them unhappy, they would whisper to the judge, change the book of life and death, and take your soul away without any discussion.
Master Qi turned his head to look at the blocked hole over there, and laughed, "Is this a difficult thing for you, Mr. Xi?"
I coughed twice and said embarrassedly, "This is really difficult. We are always waiting for the Seventh Master and the Eighth Master to come and take us away."
The Seventh Master said, "Let me ask you when your life span will end." As he spoke, he raised his head, stared at the ceiling of the cave for a while, and then said to me, "Your life span has not yet ended. Those with the surname Yan should report to the underworld after the New Year. However, your life span has been shortened. What's going on?" He frowned as he spoke.
My heart sank. If he said that, then it was certain that we would be punished by the gods. I sighed and said, "Because we knew the secret of the sky lantern, we were punished by the gods."
"Oh, so, then we can't help you. By the way, when we came here, your ancestor asked me to bring you a message, asking you to meet him on New Year's Eve after you return home."
While Master Qi was talking, Master Ba had tied up Old Qian. He turned around and gave me a sinister smile, then he and Master Qi suddenly disappeared, dragging the dazed Old Qian.
"Eh..." I wanted to ask about Lao Qian, but they left too fast.
