"According to you, something unclean has come to our post station?"

"The reason he targeted Xiaoxue is probably because she's a girl, and it seems easier for him to make a move on her!"

After listening to his two apprentices' accounts, Li Chuandao made a rough guess.

Moreover, he had already sensed a faint demonic aura here when he returned.

In addition, the post station was covered with talismans to ward off evil spirits. Li Chuandao was pleased with the cleverness of his two disciples, who knew to protect themselves and wait for his return despite the disparity in strength.

"Heijiao, go to the warehouse and find those exorcism bells that I used to use, and hang them in various places in the post station!"

"Tianze, take the ink line and go to the back room to surround those coffins!"

"Xiaoxue, go and make me some food. I've been busy all night and I'm starving!"

After assigning tasks to his disciples, Li Chuandao took the silver and went to town.

Fortunately, with those 30 large yellow croakers, they not only replaced their ritual implements but also bought a horse.

He usually goes out alone with one apprentice. There is one horse, which is enough for the two of them to ride.

If it is a group trip, all that is needed is to hitch up a horse-drawn carriage.

So even if you go to town, it won't take long for a round trip, just in time for lunch.

"Yes, Master! Go and come back quickly!"

With Li Chuandao back, Lin Xue felt reassured.

In the previous world, the reason that demon was able to defeat Li Chuandao was because of the original owner of this body, who was an internal traitor.

If the original owner hadn't betrayed Li Chuandao and his two senior brothers, it wouldn't have been easy for that demon to succeed.

If they could defeat him through fair and square means, the devil wouldn't have resorted to such despicable methods.

Therefore, in his previous life, the original owner was a black sheep, a troublemaker in the team.

In this life, Lin Xue will not betray her master, so it will not be easy for that demon to succeed.

The chef worked hard all night last night, so we should make him something good to eat.

Lin Xue glanced at the bowl and saw that the dough had risen, so she decided to steam a pot of buns.

Soak some glass noodles, soak some pickled cabbage, chop some chili peppers, add some chopped shiitake mushrooms, and add plenty of minced garlic.

Add various seasonings, stir it, cut the dough into small balls, and start making buns.

Lin Xue glanced at the cured meat hanging on the stove, and knowing that things might get tough ahead, she readily cut off a large piece.

Slice the cured pork into thin slices, stir-fry it with potatoes and cabbage, then put water on the pot, place a steamer rack on top, and put in the buns.

This way, everything can be cooked in one pot.

After doing all that, I checked the firewood burning in the stove.

I went to the garden and picked some greens, along with some coriander and scallion leaves.

I stir-fried some greens and added some kimchi.

Just as the steamed buns were ready, Li Daochuan returned on horseback.

He returned home, threw his things into the living room, and began to sit down at the dining table to eat heartily.

Heijiao and Tianze had almost finished their work, and when they saw their master return, they quickly gathered around and ate together.

No matter what they face next, they will only have the strength to cope if they are well-fed.

No one knows if they'll be able to eat their next meal in time, so everyone cherishes the time they have to eat now!

After finishing the meal.

Li Chuandao assigned tasks to his apprentices again.

Hei Jiao followed him to set up the formation, Tian Ze continued the work he hadn't finished, and Lin Xue was assigned to go back and draw talismans.

"Ding ding ding..."

Just as she was drawing the talisman in peace, she suddenly heard a clanging sound coming from the direction of the wall.

That's the copper bell that the eldest brother hung outside.

This bronze bell is not like an ordinary bell that rings when the wind blows; it only makes a sound when evil spirits touch it.

Lin Xue frowned, calmly taking a talisman in her hand while continuing to draw talismans with her other hand.

If you dare harass me, I'll teach you a lesson you won't forget!

"well!"

As soon as a talisman was formed, Lin Xue felt that desolate sigh echo in her ears again.

Where did you hide?

Then, it changed to a dignified male voice.

Lin Xue put down the talisman brush and pretended to admire the talisman, but in fact she had already begun to silently recite the incantation in her mind.

"Xiaoxue..."

Just as the demon spoke again, Lin Xue spun around and slapped the activated talisman behind her.

Unfortunately, her attack missed its mark.

Instead, she felt a chill down the back of her neck, as if someone was about to attack her.

"master!"

Lin Xue shouted, and at the same time, the whip wrapped around her waist, like a serpent, encircled her entire body.

As a gentle breeze swept by, the whip seemed to have eyes, lashing out towards her right rear.

"Smack!"

Although the place was still empty, the sound of the whip striking the body was so dull.

This also confirmed Lin Xue's suspicion that her attack had definitely hit the opponent.

However, it doesn't seem to have caused much damage.

Although the results did not meet expectations, Lin Xue was now able to protect herself.

After striking once, the magical whip returned to Lin Xue's side, encircling her in circles.

"I thought I'd picked an easy target, but it turned out to be a spicy one!"

A dark figure appeared in the direction of the doorway. He was completely black and was constantly emitting smoke.

The extreme blackness made Lin Xue feel a headache just looking at it.

At this time, the demon had not yet harmed too many people here, so his magical power was not as strong as it was back then.
