He was still sitting in his original position. When he saw the second master coming back, he raised his eyelids and said, "What? You look like this, you seem to be in trouble?"
The second master pressed his eyebrows and couldn't help but sigh again: "That bastard Sixth is causing trouble."
He said quietly: "The biggest thing is that he has already caused trouble, what else can happen?"
The second master hesitated to speak, but finally said: "He was drunk and confused, and he actually wanted to do something to Xiao Qi..."
"What?" It was only then that his expression fluctuated and his face turned angry, "Absurd! How did he become an uncle? Where is Xiaoqi? How is it now?"
"Nothing happened yet. The child was frightened. A hairpin poked Lao Liu in the lower abdomen. Mrs. Ma said that she might not lift it again in the future."
Hearing what he said, the man softened his expression: "Just save your life. If you don't want to do it, don't do it. Anyway, he has a wife, so you don't have to be ridiculous anymore."
The second master also thought the same way: "Since you said so, then I will make arrangements."
He was about to go out when he was stopped again: "You said, Xiao Qi's hairpin poked into Lao Liu's lower abdomen, and it happened to damage that place?"
"yes!"
"What does that hairpin look like?"
"It's the gold hairpin that her mother wears every day."
Seeing the other party frowning and saying nothing, the second master asked: "What's the problem?"
"Although the gold hairpin is sharp, it is not a sharp weapon after all. If it were to damage that place, it would have to penetrate deeply."
The second master didn't take it seriously: "When people are in crisis, they are stronger than usual. The child was so frightened that she was in a daze. Her mother thought she was going to be stupid again, so she cried hard."
This person's brows were not relaxed: "It's strange how well she is recovering from her illness. The fourth child said before that she really knows mystical arts."
"Didn't you say that her lost soul was taken in by Empress Xuannv? It's a bit weird, but there's nothing strange about it, right?"
He still shook his head: "What a coincidence."
"Do you suspect that there is something wrong with Xiao Qi?" The second master thought about it for a moment, "I think it's quite normal."
"I hope I'm overthinking it." He waved his hand, "Go ahead."
After the second master left, the room became silent.
I don't know how long it took, but the candle flame "peeled off".
He whispered: "Return to the soul? Or... seize the soul?"
…
The next day, Mingwei became "sick".
She stayed in bed for two whole days before she looked like she had recovered.
Duofu walked with her in the garden while talking about what happened in the past two days.
"...I heard that Mr. Six had a dispute with someone outside and was injured. The east courtyard has been in chaos these past few days. The old lady lost her temper and made everyone in their courtyard depressed."
Mingwei nodded, she knew all this.
The second master handled it very cleanly, and everyone in the Ming Dynasty thought that the sixth master was sleeping outside.
Unknowingly, they came near the willow tree.
"How blessed you are, try opening your heavenly eyes." Mingwei said suddenly.
"Ah? Little Miss..." Duofu was a little timid.
"Why, don't you dare?"
Duofu gritted his teeth and said, "If the lady asks me to watch it, I will watch it!"
Mingwei raised his hand to stop him again.
Duofu was puzzled: "Miss?" Didn't you let her see it?
Mingwei looked at her intently.
Duofu is actually very pretty, but half of her face is covered with dark spots, so no one pays attention to her appearance.
In addition, she always lowered her head, fearing that others would see her face, which made her even more timid.
People in the world only look at her appearance and don't know how good a girl she is.
Skillful, diligent and kind.
Although he is timid, he can bravely rush forward to protect others.
"Duofu, do you want to be a Xuanshi?"
Duofu was stunned for a moment, then stammered for a long time: "How can I be a Xuanshi? I heard that Xuanshi masters are so powerful..."
"Why not?" Mingwei asked softly, "If you knew mystical arts, would you be able to protect others and drive away monsters and ghosts?"
"Of course!" Duofu did not hesitate.
Ming smiled: "Isn't that enough? If you can follow this belief throughout your life, you are a qualified metaphysician."
"Really?" Duofu's eyes were bright, but he quickly lowered his head, "But I'm stupid..."
"Where are you stupid? Aren't you already able to open the Heavenly Eye? Do you know that disciples of the authentic Xuanmen have to go through a whole year of practice before they can open the Heavenly Eye?"
Duofu was stunned. Is this actually the case? So she can also become a Xuanshi? Her heart beat violently.
"Come." Mingwei pointed to the willow tree, "open your eyes and see what this vicious thing looks like."
"Yes." Duofu suppressed the excitement in his heart, untied the red knot on his wrist, and tried to focus on the center of his eyebrows.
Soon, she entered that wonderful world again, and everything around her turned black and white.
She mustered up the courage to look at the evil creature in the willow tree.
This gray-white shadow has a layer of blood on it.
The lady said it was a blood evil, and the thicker the blood, the more ferocious the thing.
Strange, I didn’t see any other colors today, what about the living soul?
Duofu glanced around and suddenly shouted: "Miss!"
"how?"
Duofu pointed to the bottom of the tree: "I found that there is a line on this thing, which is connected to the soil."
"oh?"
Mingwei also opened his own eyes.
Sure enough, I saw a vague line connecting to the soil.
Ming frowned slightly.
This vicious thing was definitely not brought in from outside.
It was bred by Yu Fong Yuan itself!
The thing that gave birth to it is buried under the willow tree!
"Miss?"
Mingwei took a deep breath: "Let's go back." She smiled slightly, "You discovered something very important."
"Really?" Although Duofu didn't understand, he was very happy.
After returning home, Mingwei asked Aunt Tong for yellow paper and cinnabar.
Aunt Tong smiled and said, "Miss, are you going to draw a talisman?"
"Yes, I am also idle when I am free. I draw a few talismans and provide them to Empress Xuannv."
Mother Tong said: "This also means that the yellow paper is ready-made, but the cinnabar is missing, so I will ask someone to go out and buy it."
"It's time for you, grandma."
Grandma Tong went out to ask people to buy things.
Mingwei took out a piece of paper, picked up the pen, dipped his hand in water and tried it.
It’s been a long time since I’ve drawn a talisman, I’m so ungrateful!
Since her magic power entered the door, there is no need to use magic charms to ward off evil spirits.
Nowadays, my magic power is weak, so if I want to do something, I have to resort to external forces.
If you don't restrain the evil creatures on the trees, you won't be able to dig the soil under the trees.
If you don't dig up the soil under the tree, you won't know where the root is.
She had a hunch that if she dug out that thing, the reason why Yu Fangyuan was haunted would come to light.
…
Just after the first watch, Mrs. Mingsan had just changed out of her clothes, and Mother Tong came in with a note.
"lady."
Mrs. Ming San took one look and ordered: "Prepare water for bathing! Ask Su Jie Bingxin to come and serve."
Mother Tong sighed and whispered, "I know."
Hot water was quickly brought in, the little girls were sent out, and the atmosphere in the room was dull.
Not long after, Mrs. Mingsan came out with a wet look on her face and sat in front of the mirror, drawing her eyebrows and licking her lips.
The night is dark, and the face under the candlelight is beautifully decorated.
