to visit him in the morning and evening, and all major decisions are made by the grandfather.My dad's generation is now the backbone of society, almost all of them working hard outside their hometown...The Shen family may not be entirely devoted to me, but they worship the deity who is my child's father. They wouldn't dare to be disrespectful.
When I called Shen Qingrui, she answered with anger, “What do you want”
There was a hint of resistance in her voice, which I found rather amusing: "…I told you to bring ten inner disciples, where are they"
"Didn't you send someone over already!" Shen Qingrui shouted.
I really did see ten disciples in Chinese clothing standing before me, but Shen Qingrui wasn't there.
"I'm asking, 'Where is Shen Qingrui' Don't play dumb with me. I asked you to bring your disciples here, not send them as a mere formality. We have one hour before the operation begins. If you can't make it in time, don't expect to show your face at the Shen family ever again."
"What do you think you are! The Shen family is mine! You—"
"As the acting head of the Shen family, I tell you, Old Madam Shen hasn't passed away yet! You dare defy me Come or don't come, the choice is yours!"
I frowned and hung up the phone. In front of me, ten disciples looked at each other in bewilderment. They used to follow Shen Qingrui's lead, but now they seemed lost without her.
"Don't panic, there might be magic formations and barriers inside, along with some vengeful spirits possessing living people. These spirits have been wandering for four hundred years. If you encounter them, the first thing to do is protect yourselves—"
"Huh" Ge Kun widened his eyes.
I frowned. "What Did I say something wrong"
"No, no, it's just that we've never heard of the first rule being self-preservation... It's always been about striking first and being strong, you know..." she explained to me.
I waved my hand: "First, protect yourselves. I don't want to see any losses among our own people; these ghosts are numerous, each one hundreds of years old. Be careful and don't take risks."
They nodded, and the tension in their eyes seemed to lessen.
I don't know how skilled these inner disciples are, and I'm worried they might get into an accident. To be honest, I only "trust" Shen Qingrui's Taoist skills because I've seen them with my own eyes.
If she doesn't come, won't that mean she's not taking my orders seriously
Actually, I don't care how she sees me. I mainly called her in to increase our combat power.
Officer Lu called us aside and said, "That short-haired woman is definitely not ordinary. We'll focus on her later, leave the rest to others."
My brother flexed his fists and said, “Alright, I’m going to find out what this woman is all about!”
"Be careful, she has a gun." I reminded her, frowning.
Officer Lu beckoned with his finger, and someone fitted us with bulletproof vests. "As soon as they dare to draw their guns, I'll shoot without hesitation," he said. "I was a king of soldiers in the army. I don't believe she can be faster than me!"
Seeing the police break down doors and windows for the first time up close, their movements swift and fluid, made my heart race. It felt like I was watching an action movie in real life.
The officers rushed upstairs to the second and third floors, while I led the Shen family along the stairs to block the basement.
Little Ni was hiding in my satchel, and it couldn't contain itself. It poked its head out and reminded me, “The energy here is really chaotic!”
"It smells so bad, right I can already smell the stench!"
This basement has only one corridor, and on both sides are many small rooms. It looks like a red-light district that provides special services.
Officer Lu wanted to rush down the stairs, but my brother grabbed him. "You're crazy! We need to go upstairs first during this!"
My brother casually tossed a tattered exorcism talisman and, with the flick of his hand, ignited it with the Five Elements Fire Technique.
The talisman burned with an eerie green light, and the disciples of the Shen family immediately raised their hands, forming sword seals. They held their familiar talismans and magical artifacts in readiness.
Jian Jue is the use of widespread Taoist finger techniques, representing wielding a sword to exorcise evil.
The thumb presses against the ring finger, and the tip of the thumb pinches between the second and third joints of the little finger at the Yǔwén acupoint. The index finger and middle finger are straightened side by side.
Sword tactics are indispensable when performing sword movements. Jiang Qiyun pinched a sword tactic in the air while drawing symbols with his hand.
Because I didn't know how powerful that ghost princess was, I brought both the Zi Xiao Ruyi and Xia Nie. However, I didn't dare let Xia Nie run around, for fear that the police would discover it was a protected animal and take it away.
So at this moment, Little Ni can only bear the two little stars and hide in my satchel as a military advisor.
The talisman, a tattered scroll crackling with emerald flames, drifted slowly downward. In the instant before it touched the ground and the flames died, the barrier it held back shattered, unleashing a surge of evil energy that soared into the sky —
The dark, icy evil slashed across our faces like blades, making our eyes unable to open!
Screams of tormented spirits ripped through the darkness, a maddening frenzy assaulting eardrums. These were the anguished cries of souls brutally murdered four hundred years ago.
They lived by righteousness, resisting enemies like butchers. After being brutally slaughtered, their vengeful spirits surged and surrounded their "master".
They do not seek transcendence or reincarnation. After being suppressed in Zhu Wei's cave tomb for four hundred years, their current madness is understandable.
Zhu Weiti ultimately failed to pacify the resentment of these ghosts, she herself hadn't been able to dispel her own resentment, let alone attain enlightenment!
These ghosts have long since become oppressed and twisted evil spirits.
Thinking this over, I squinted and took a step forward.
"Little Qiao!"
My brother's voice was anxious, but I couldn't bring myself to answer him.
The left little finger crosses over the ring finger, hooking onto the thumb. The middle and index fingers are bent and pinch the horizontal lines on the palm. The second finger points upwards, while the ring finger is extended.
The thumb is pressed down by the index finger, middle finger, and ring finger. The index and little fingers point upward.
Purple Micro Demon Subduing Seal.
It's very difficult to pinch out the seal with both hands, and it’s a different seal altogether. It’s even more difficult to pinch it out in an instant, but this seal is extremely powerful, causing the Purple Cloud如意瑞光 hidden in my lower back to appear!
A purple glow pressed down, overwhelming the sinister energy. The ghastly shrieks came to an abrupt halt.
Don't be careless, these old ghosts just barely escaped the earth pit, there's no way they'll just quiet down so easily!
As the radiance of Ruyi gradually converged, I curled my second and third fingers, pinching the middle joint of my ring finger with my thumb, practicing the "Liuyu" technique to dispel evil.
The Ghost Gate surged up from the ground beside me, suddenly opening wide to face the darkness below the staircase.
Everything ceased, a chilling stillness permeated the air, laced with malice and the echoes of savage roars.
Until a low sob broke the silence.
The sound was like dewdrops on flower petals in the dark, falling with the wind.
"Wail... Was it him who sent you Does he want you to act as justice and take us, these unfortunate souls" Zhu Weiti's voice drifted in the darkness.
"...He is a god, mind your words." The ghost princess referred to Jiang Qiyun with "he," which inexplicably made me feel uneasy.
"Honorable God... hahaha... yes, truly 'a god of his word', aren't you" she sneered.
"He has already given you compassion, but you cannot see the right path." I said with a frown.
"The right path... the world changes so much, what is the right path I finally saw the changes of the world with my own eyes..." Her voice grew closer, accompanied by the sound of high heels tapping lightly on the floor.
Officer Lu raised his gun, one hand holding a tactical flashlight, aiming with both hands crossed.
In that beam of white light, a snow-white woman's face appeared.
Shoulder-length short hair, smooth forehead, sharp and intelligent eyebrows, a high and delicate nose.
...lips and chin stained with blood.
"Mu Xiaoqiao... we meet again." She gave me a playful smile. "You probably don't remember me, do you"
Uhy brother patted my head: "Right, the Pan Yangjiao, Uncle Liu, did any of your ancestors believe in Buddhism Tibetan Buddhism."This thing is very common in the Tibetan areas, Tibetans often hang it ab...
