584 plotting

old woman's face twitched. "Little girl, your family is a renowned practitioner of esoteric medicine. You must know the origin of the Soul-Seeking Bird.""I've never seen anything like this up close be...The argument was very loud, Lao Qi's voice penetrated the door panel, I could hear it clearly even in the living room.

"You think I don't know you've been慫恿ing her to eat all that weird stuff, things you provided her with, right!" Lao Qi roared.

"It wasn't me! I just took her to the bar! It was her who made contact! I just wanted to ask her to pay, so I could look better in front of my friends... What can I do if she has a problem with her orientation She likes to act like a man in front of me, you know! Someone instigated her and even dragged me to the restroom. Do you think I wanted to My friends all think I'm gay! I was just messing around!" The third-party girl shouted defiantly.

"Play You play Play until my family is ruined, you're happy!"

“Slap!” a crisp sound of a slap, Little Three cried and scolded: “Are you timid You're as timid as a rabbit in front of your wife! When you were with me, you were so perverse! Now you blame me Have you tightened your belt”

Good girl...

These three chaotic people...

Suddenly, the third party's tone changed. She spoke in a low voice, "Anyway, things have come to this...besides properly sending her off, what else can we do You're not going to help at all, it's me doing all the funeral arrangements."

Lao Qi is an artist, I think he's a painter

He said impatiently, "What use is a mourning ceremony now that everyone's gone! What difference does it make anyway Everyone's already dead!"

They were arguing inside, I frowned and raised my hand to knock. The sounds from within stopped abruptly.

"Both of you, can't you wait until after the seventh day to fight Please don't break any taboos, okay" I said to the door.

"Do you know how many taboos you've broken! If you really didn't care, why would you call a shaman Do whatever you want, I don't care."

"I'm truly quite angry," the young woman immediately pulled open the door and said, "Forgive me, forgive me! Master, please don't be angry. What taboo have we committed Please tell me quickly, and I'll correct it immediately!"

"First, family members should commemorate the deceased during the seventh day, rather than locking themselves in a room and ignoring everything; second, that dish of beef should be removed immediately; third, have you prepared paper money, gold ingots, and other offerings for the various deities Sending someone off with just your mouth Fourth, avoid arguments and loud noises at the mourning hall entrance… Reflect on yourselves, how many things have you done wrong" I asked, frowning.

Little Three was terrified. She felt guilty about this relationship; she probably had nightmares every night. When I said that, she immediately ran out to tidy up the offerings on the altar.

I turned and looked out the door at the two ghost messengers standing there. The bigger one had a forced smile plastered on his face, while the smaller one…

The little demon's eyes, surprisingly, had no pupils.

Only the whites of his eyes, a sickly pale blue, were visible. He was silent, as if he were a statue of clay.

I've never seen such a ghost clerk before. The most common ones I see are the adorable duo of little ghost clerks. Jiang Qiyun saw that I liked them, so he allowed these two silly fools to run errands for me full-time.

I've also seen other ghosts and demons, previously when we were besieged by heads outside the side gate of Dingguo Temple, many little ghosts came to help us hold down the flying heads.

Although each of those minor officials wore plain white robes and had pale or dark faces, they were all lively and animated. None of them resembled a statue made of clay.

And this little imp, its physique and appearance are that of a child. Its eyes lack pupils...this is very abnormal.

"Do you two often come out to escort the souls of the departed" I asked toward the person behind the door.

The Great Ghost Attendant laughed and said, “Indeed, we’re always busy running around. There are too many people in this imperial capital, but there aren't enough ghost attendants, so we often have to run everywhere.”

The little imp was still as silent as a statue.

I'm not going to let him get away. I stared at him and asked, "What about that little errand boy He looks like a child. Could such a young child be an errand boy"

The hulking ghost attendant froze for a moment, putting on a fake smile: "To Your Highness, he's different by nature. He became a ghost attendant before me, and he's a silent, useless drum... I don't know why he died so young, nor how he became a ghost attendant."

This left the clerk speechless, and even though I had my doubts, I couldn't find a way to ask questions.

A crashing sound of broken glass suddenly came from the study. Xiao San was in the kitchen, pouring out a bowl of braised beef, when I immediately rushed to the edge of the study door. At a glance, I saw the floor-to-ceiling glass shattered and a blood-red robe fluttering outside on the balcony.

Blood clothes fluttered high, only the lower half remained. Lao Qi muttered, "…How come you're not wearing shoes I'll get you slippers…"

He is weak-willed and easily susceptible to being bewitched or possessed by spirits.

He walked out onto the balcony, dragging his slippers behind him with one hand, slumping his shoulders.

like a gorilla with its arms drooping and hunched over.

"Be careful! Don't go over there!" I raised my hand and formed the Ghost-Binding Seal. The blood-cloaked ghost on the balcony disappeared with a whoosh.

Such a clever ghost, it must be here to harm people!

In my heart, I quietly categorized the ghosts as ghosts, evil ghosts, vengeful spirits, fierce ghosts, and a few hundred-year-old fairies. The more powerful the ghost, the clearer its consciousness. This mistress has twice flinched at the slightest breeze and fled from before my eyes! She must be very accomplished—because she could quickly sense danger.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAh——!!" Fearful screams and the sound of shattering bowls echoed once again from the kitchen.

That little girl fell to the ground, her hands covered in glass shards, drawing a trail of blood on the floor.

"Qi Ge, Qi Ge save me! I I I saw heads! Sorcerer! Sorcerer come quickly and save me! Come and look! She's here, right here!!" Xiao San screamed hysterically.

Her hands slapped out bloodstains on the floor tiles one after another.

I was caught between a rock and a hard place, worried that Lao Qi might suddenly jump from the building. So I quickly pulled out a talisman, dispelled the sinister evil spirits, and Lao Qi trembled all over before collapsing to the ground.

I immediately went to the kitchen, clutching a talisman in one hand and performing the Yin Lei Seal with the other. If the Blood-Clad Ghost tried to harm me, I would subdue her.

Suddenly, I glanced at the two small ghosts standing outside the door.

The senior ghost official wore a face of a fake smile, watching the scene as if it were a play. The junior ghost official standing behind him, however, looked terrifying. A wisp of black qi oozed from his eye sockets!

Is this a ghost

I reflexively drew out the Zijiao RuYi and slashed at him—

Two ghost attendants dodged the purple lightning sword qi, and the lead ghost attendant looked surprised: "Little Lady, why did you attack us! We are—"

My heart pounded: "Who are you What are you"

"We are the ghost messengers under Old King's command, we—"

Before he could finish his words, a sharp "ding" echoed through the heavy darkness behind them.

Jiang Qiyun, wearing a simple shirt and trousers, came silently from the darkness.

"Ghost messenger You're really audacious…"rom his embrace, turning to cup his face."What do you want to do" His deep gaze locked onto mine.I didn't intend to lie, though the child did speak to me in hushed tones, I know that Mu Wanchen must h...
