With Suning's cultivation level, he could tell at a glance that evil spirits had entered the young man's body.
What he was curious about was where did the other party get these ghosts from, and they were so strong.
Not only was the skin all over his body sore, but there were also black spiders hidden in his flesh and blood that were difficult to see with the naked eye.
If he didn't have an expert to remove the evil spirits and look for the maternal and fetal eggs, he would definitely be dead within half a year at most.
"Master Jingyue said it was a deficiency disease."
Faced with Suning's inquiry, the man's wife was vague.
Tang Jingyue said: "It's true that it's a deficiency disease, but everything must have a cause and effect. You have to explain clearly the ins and outs of the whole thing."
“Only by tracing the root cause can we prescribe the right medicine.”
"Kunlun can save your husband the first time, but there is no guarantee that there will be a second time."
The woman's beauty turned pale, and tears came to her eyes.
The man clenched his fists and gasped like a cow: "Say it, it's not something shameful."
"It's hard to tell whether the rumors passed down by the older generation are true or false."
"I made a mistake and deserve to be punished."
Tang Jingyue handed over the tissue and comforted the woman: "Don't worry, let's start from the beginning."
The woman turned sideways and sobbed, wiping her tears and said: "Three months ago, my husband's grandfather passed away. We rushed back to our hometown as soon as possible to pay our respects and take care of the funeral arrangements."
"We invited the most famous local Feng Shui master to view the cemetery and choose an auspicious day to break the ground for burial."
"Everything went smoothly until the first seven days."
"That night, my husband had a strange dream. He dreamed that a magnificent palace suddenly rose up in the backyard of his ancestral home, and standing at the door was a hunchbacked old woman wearing a floral coat."
"Eighty or ninety years old, kind-faced, kind-hearted, and approachable."
"She told my husband that Zheng Laogen is dead and he is the only one left in the Zheng family. The rest of the sacrifice will be inherited by my husband."
"On every first and fifteenth day of the lunar month, I offer three sticks of incense, three kinds of fruits, and five pieces of yellow paper."
"Offer small animals, chickens, fish, and pig heads during the New Year."
"Twenty years until the agreement expires."
Tang Jingyue interjected: "Zheng Laogen is your husband's deceased grandfather?"
The woman nodded and said, "Yes, my grandfather had a son when he gave birth. My husband's father died of liver cancer ten years ago."
Tang Jingyue said thoughtfully: "So, the old woman is not talking nonsense. Your husband is the only bloodline of the Zheng family."
The man endured the pain caused by the silver needle pricking the acupoint and said in a trembling voice: "I, I have a twin brother who committed suicide by jumping off a building eight years ago."
Suning went to the kitchen to check the chicken soup and added soaked mushrooms.
When I came back, I heard the woman say with dull eyes: "That dream has a beginning and no end, it's very weird."
"My husband didn't think much about it and thought it was a trance caused by lack of sleep."
"But the very next day, when we went to the backyard to sort out the debris, we actually found a small palace in the lower left corner of the courtyard wall."
"The appearance of the palace is exactly the same as in my husband's dream."
"The only thing missing is the hunchbacked old woman."
Suning listened with great interest and felt very curious: "What then?"
The woman lost her mind and said: "My husband and I are not superstitious people. We don't believe in these things at all."
"That afternoon, we drove back to Kyoto."
"Because we were too tired, we and I went to bed early at night."
"About twelve o'clock in the morning, I was woken up by my husband's scream."
"He knelt on the ground, kowtowed, and muttered, "I was wrong, I was wrong."
"I couldn't wake him up no matter what, and I was scared to death by him."
"The fuss lasted for more than half an hour. He climbed into bed in a daze and didn't know what to ask."
Tang Jingyue said calmly: "When something fishy happened, why didn't you find a knowledgeable expert to ask about the specific situation?"
The woman confessed: "I found it. At dawn, I went to South Street in person and found Li Benliang, a well-known evil-killing master in Kyoto."
"Master Li said that there is a demon occupying the ancestral home of the Zheng family, so he must open a altar to quell the demon and eliminate it."
