"All the young girls in our Yanjiadi Town have become fools and will not live to be thirty-six years old. Since you say you are a psychic, can you cure this strange disease?" the old mayor asked me.
"As long as the evil spirit can be uncovered, I can't guarantee that all girls can be cured, but as long as they haven't been stupid for more than three years, I'm 80% sure that they can be cured." I nodded.
Hearing my words, Yan Guang turned around and looked at me fiercely, his lips closed for a long time, and then he asked me excitedly: "You mean, you can cure the girl's disease every year?"
I nodded and said, "As long as she hasn't been stupid for more than three years, I can cure her!"
"No, no, I went to college outside every year, and I came back in June to be my godmother. She has been stupid for less than a year."
Yan Guang said while holding the New Year's hand and said: "This child has been smart since she was a child. In order to make her a fairy messenger, I spent a lot of money to let her study. She only studied at the University for six years and she is already a Ph.D. in Kyoto B University.
, who would have thought that you have become stupid now, as long as you can cure your illness every year, I will kowtow to you and apologize in front of the whole town."
When he said these words, Yan Guang's voice trembled slightly with excitement.
After hearing these words, I looked at Nian Nian with some surprise. I didn't expect that she, a highly educated person, would worship that Immortal Liu Yun as my godmother.
Every year she sees me looking at her, grinning happily at me, her saliva turns into white mucus and drips down from the toffee in her mouth.
"Don't worry, I will definitely try my best!" I nodded towards Yan Guang.
"Everyone, please disperse now. Let's have a detailed discussion with Master Hu Ling first. We will inform everyone of the specific situation later!" the old mayor raised his hand and waved to everyone.
As he said that, the old mayor raised his hand towards me, making a gesture of invitation and said: "Master Hu Ling, please come in!"
I smiled and said: "Old mayor, you are the elder, just call me Hu Ling!"
After entering the ancestral hall, I looked back and saw that the villagers had not dispersed. Instead, they gathered in groups of twos and threes and squatted in the open space outside the ancestral hall, chatting quietly.
The old mayor led Dongzi and I into a meeting hall at the side entrance.
The hall is not big, but four people are already sitting inside.
Yan Erzhu, who came back with us before, and Yan Zigui, who almost fell off the cliff, had also come in early. There was also a middle-aged man wearing glasses and a slender-looking man in his fifties.
Needless to say, that man with a slender appearance must be Yan Erzhu's second uncle Yan Na.
Judging from the aura on his body, his cultivation level is not low, at least he has a cultivation level of first or second level.
The moment he saw Dongzi and I, a flash of surprise flashed across Yan Na's face, and then he stood up, cupped his hands towards us and said, "I didn't expect you two to have such a high level of cultivation at such a young age. It's really rude of us.
Got it!"
"Master Yan, I've admired you for a long time!" I smiled, and Dongzi and I raised our hands and returned the greeting to Yan Na at the same time.
"In front of you two, I cannot be called a master!"
Yan Na's face turned slightly red and he said: "Actually, I have noticed what happened in our village a long time ago, but I don't have enough skills. My ancestors are all from the Yan family town, so it's not easy for me to interfere too much."
What he said was both an explanation and an acknowledgment of us.
After the old mayor and Yan Na's eyes met for a moment, he immediately raised his finger politely and pointed at the middle-aged man wearing glasses: "This is the secretary of our Yanjia Di Town, Liu Dong!"
Liu Dong stood up, stretched out his hand to me and Dongzi, and said, "I don't understand what Master Yan and the old mayor said, but the Yan family town is the first place I have ever visited since I became secretary, and I have the most persistent beliefs."
This is not a good thing for the town, so if you two can make the masses stop being overly superstitious, I will cooperate with you."
I smiled, nodded towards Liu Dong and said, "Understood! Isn't Secretary Liu from the Yan family town?"
"no!"
Liu Dong shook his head and said: "Yanjiadi Town is a relatively backward village. The mayor has always been elected by the masses. I am the only secretary who is sent from above. Recently, the national highway section in Yanjiadi Town has been very uneven at night.
, the higher-ups also put a lot of pressure on me.”
The old mayor smiled and said, "Hu Ling, you must be wondering why my attitude changed so quickly, right?"
I smiled, glanced at Yan Erzhu, and said nothing.
"It is indeed Erzhu who called Secretary Liu before he went out to stop you. He was afraid that something might happen, so he followed us here to wait.
I didn't expect you guys to come back and save Zigui.
In fact, I have thought about what you said in the morning, but I didn’t dare to think about it deeply. When I came back today, I had a long chat with Master Yan Na, and we realized that what you said is probably true."
After speaking, the old mayor stared into my eyes and asked: "Miss Hu Ling, you just said that all the girls in the town can be saved, is it true?"
I did not avoid the old mayor's gaze, looked at him and replied sincerely: "I will definitely try my best, because this matter is also related to the life and death of my family. As long as I can get rid of the evil spirit and save the girl in the town, we can
Save my family."
The old mayor was stunned for a moment, looked at me with some confusion and said, "The events in our town are actually related to the girl's family?"
I shook my head and said, "It's not that the things in your town are related to my family, but that we need great merit now."
The old mayor still looked a little confused and looked back at Yan Na.
Yan Na nodded and said to the old mayor: "Cause and effect!"
After saying these two words, Yan Na looked at me and said: "Since the two friends are determined to win this matter, I will go out of my way to help you. As a native of the Yan family, I need some skills, but I can't.
If I do something for my own people, I won’t be able to face the master who taught me these skills in the future.”
"Thank you!" I bowed to Yan Na.
He is a well-known local Feng Shui master and has some influence in this area. With his help, this matter should not be a big problem.
"It should be thank you!" Yan Na returned the favor to me.
"By the way, Miss Hu, do you have any specific plans for this matter?" Yan Na asked me again: "When do you plan to take action?"
"Let's do it tonight!"
I spoke, stood up, closed the door and curtains, and signaled Dongzi to give me the package containing the spiritual Buddha.
The room instantly became dark.
After taking the package, I gently placed it on the ground, opened the package, took out a spiritual Buddha wrapped in black cloth and handed it to Yan Na and said: "Master Yan, please take a look and see if the soul inside is that of your Yan family.
The people of the town."
"Is this the spiritual Buddha you brought out from Liuyun Temple?"
Yan Na reached out and took it, and said with some doubts: "I have never been to Liuyun Temple, and I have never seen what the spiritual Buddha that everyone invites home to worship looks like. It turns out that it is just a stone statue with no breath at all.
