Then Su Ya coldly said, "I am not his apprentice."

When Master Changqing heard Su Ya say that, he felt a little wronged, as if he had been bullied. "Disciple, what do you not like about your master? I'll change it, okay?"

Suya: "I don't like any of them."

Master Changqing: "It's so hard to take on a disciple!"

Su Ya did it on purpose when she broke the formation. The date-sized rock would appear naturally if you stepped on it lightly, but if you stepped on it with force, it would be assumed that someone was attacking the temple and would trigger a self-destruct mechanism.

So, just now, after Ping An shouted that someone had broken through the formation...

The Taoist temple looked like it had been hit by an earthquake, and in the end, it was in the dilapidated state that Master Wang saw.

The Taoist temple is now almost completely destroyed.

Reconstruction will indeed require a significant amount of money.

Su Ya could pay for it, and she could even rebuild it in a magnificent style, provided that Master Changqing stopped bothering her.

Of the entire Taoist temple, only one guest room and the main hall remain intact. The rest has been almost completely destroyed.

"Disciple, let's talk inside. Don't let outsiders laugh at us."

Master Changqing said with a smile.

Su Ya was puzzled; it seemed that everyone she met after her rebirth was quite shameless.

Su Ya snorted coldly.

Master Wang then realized what was happening and suddenly knelt down on the ground, pleading, "Fairy, please save my daughter!"

Only then did Master Changqing notice that there was a middle-aged man and a girl of about fourteen or fifteen years old behind Su Ya.

But why does this girl look so dazed and confused?

After carefully examining the girl and taking her pulse, the Taoist priest blurted out, "Aphasia."

When Master Wang heard the Taoist priest and the girl say the same thing, he knew that his daughter could be saved.

"Master Daoist."

“Disciple, this girl’s illness is a bit complicated. Why don’t we go inside the Taoist temple to discuss it?”

After saying this, Master Changqing left first.

Only the apprentice is still alive and well.

Su Ya ignored Master Changqing.

Mr. Wang was getting a little anxious, so he called out, "Miss."

Seeing this, Su Ya sighed and said, "Lead the way."

Ping An led the group into the Taoist temple. Su Ya saw that the temple was in even worse condition than she had imagined. No, it was already quite dilapidated, and Su Ya's actions had made it even worse.

Ping An led the group to the main hall of the Taoist temple.

Master Changqing is already waiting.

As soon as Master Wang entered, he respectfully greeted, "Taoist Master."

Then I heard Master Changqing ask, "Tell me, when did your daughter start acting like this?"

Master Wang began to recall the scene at that time.

It happened about three years ago. My daughter had just started junior high school. The school required students to live on campus, but since we lived close to home, my daughter chose to commute instead of staying at the school.

Normally, the school lets us go home at 8 pm, and I usually pick up my daughter. That night, for some reason, they didn't let us go home until 10 pm. At 9:30 pm, I happened to get an urgent fare from a pregnant woman who needed to go to the hospital urgently. I didn't want to take her, but it was hard for her to get a taxi in that area, and I was worried about something happening, so I drove there anyway.

So I called my daughter and told her to wait for me at the security guard's office at the school gate after I finished this job, and that I would pick her up from school.

As a result, by the time I finished dropping off the pregnant woman, it was already past 10 o'clock.

When I arrived at the school, my daughter wasn't there either.

I called my wife, and she said our daughter hadn't come back.

Then I drove around looking for it.

They found it in the alley behind the school after midnight.

At that time, my daughter would stay there all by herself, pacing back and forth.

I quickly went up to her and called her name.

When my daughter saw it was me, she fainted right in front of me.

I thought she had been bullied, so I quickly took her to the hospital.

The doctor examined me and said I was fine.

So I took it home.

My daughter went home and went to sleep.

When I woke up the next day, this is what happened.

Every time Mr. Wang recalls this incident, he feels a pang of pain in his heart. He regrets not letting the pregnant woman take another taxi.

But there's no going back.

After listening to Master Wang's story, Master Changqing remained silent for a long time before asking, "Do you remember what time it was that day?"

“I remember it was July 15th. I saw people burning paper money in the street.”

"Ghost Festival?"

Suya said.

The Ghost Festival, according to legend, is the day when the gates of hell open wide, and the yin energy is at its heaviest. On this night, people slaughter chickens and ducks, burn incense and paper offerings to appease the hungry ghosts emerging from the underworld, hoping to appease their resentment and prevent them from harming the human world. The fields are filled with the smoke of incense and candles, where spirits, whether possessed or unclaimed, and wandering souls, feast and drink. Over time, this has become the custom of the Ghost Festival.

On Ghost Festival, it's best not to go out at night to avoid encountering ghosts. Also, it's best to avoid riverbanks or beaches to prevent accidentally falling and becoming a water ghost. In addition, it's best not to say anything unlucky or offensive to the spirit world to avoid attracting evil spirits.

"When you saw your daughter, you saw her pacing back and forth, right?"

Suya asked again.

"Yes, I saw her pacing back and forth, as if she wanted to be locked up and couldn't get out."

After hearing what Master Wang said, Su Ya knew that his daughter must have encountered the legendary "ghost wall".

This isn't the kind of "ghost wall" that's described in psychology; it's a real ghost wall. To be precise, the place where Master Wang's daughter walked was the place where the gates of hell were wide open.

She didn't know why she got there, and then one of her souls went with her into the gates of hell.

This is troublesome.

Although Su Ya had some knowledge of esoteric arts, it wasn't in-depth. She could break formations, but casting spells was out of the question.

Su Ya looked at Master Changqing with some difficulty. He was the only one here who knew mystical arts.

When Master Changqing saw Su Ya looking at him, he was secretly pleased. "Little brat, you've finally met someone you don't know! Why don't you become my disciple?"

However, despite his inner smugness, Master Changqing outwardly maintained a serious demeanor, stroking his beard before saying, "Right now, we can only use the Soul Summoning Technique to bring the child's soul back. But this technique damages my cultivation. What if I get injured, or if my Tianqing Sect's mortal enemies come? What will become of my temple? And what about Ping An? I haven't even had a chance to teach him anything yet."

Upon hearing Master Changqing's words, Su Ya knew that the old Taoist was deliberately saying them to her.

Suya initially didn't want to respond.

But looking at Master Wang beside her, who was running around trying to cure his daughter's illness, and his young daughter who had lost her soul, Su Ya suddenly felt a pang of pity. If they didn't summon back her soul, her life would just end like this.

Fine, let's just consider it a good deed.

This can also be considered as accumulating good karma for one's mother.

So Su Ya lowered her head and said to Daoist Changqing, "As long as you save this girl, I will keep an eye on the Tianqing Sect for you from now on. I guarantee there won't be any problems. Now you can rest assured."
