The sedan chair bearers carried Linghu Lan through the darkness.

I witnessed ghosts firsthand today. They were always terrified when walking through the night, and they walked extremely slowly.

Thinking back to today at the Meng family home, when the Meng family was about to become violent towards her great-aunt, it was fortunate that they stood in front of her and prevented her from being offended too badly. Otherwise, she would probably be in the same predicament as that Ning lady!

In these small villages, the village chief, clan head, and village head all play a significant role, and it is common for them to invoke ancestral family laws. Even if the county magistrate finds out, he will simply say that it is the local custom and will not interfere.

In Baihua Village, there is a local custom of drowning unchaste women in pig cages. In other places, witches use peach wood ash to exorcise demons.

That Lady Ning is now insane, possessed by a ghost, and has taken over someone else's body. I'm afraid her future will not be pleasant.

The night was dark, and the wind was refreshing!

Linghu Lan lifted the sedan curtain and veil, letting the cool breeze dispel the slight irritation in her heart.

The sedan chair bearers carried the sedan chair and soon passed Qin Ya's territory, that patch of lonely graves.

The two men lifted the sedan chair and started running. Strangely, they seemed to be under a spell; their feet were moving, but their bodies remained in place.

The large mansion they had seen during the day reappeared before them. The white lanterns were already eerie enough during the day, but at night they were even more terrifying.

The maid in green slowly opened the door and walked out, carrying a white lantern in her hand. She walked slowly and swayed to the sedan chair and smiled at Linghu Lan, saying, "This servant greets the honored guest. I apologize for the intrusion that I have kept your sedan chair here."

"It's alright!" Linghu Lan smiled, glanced at the sedan bearers who were running around in circles as if they had lost their souls, and realized that this little maid in green had a good relationship with the five concubines of the Prince's mansion, so she deliberately teased the sedan bearers.

The maid in green breathed a sigh of relief, seemingly realizing that she had been somewhat presumptuous.

She quickly bowed and said, "Thank you for your kindness, esteemed guest. My master has sent word that we will visit your residence tomorrow. In addition, my master ordered me to go to the Prince's residence today. I saw that the gates of the Prince's residence were closed, and several Taoist priests from Baiyun Temple were waiting for you inside. They were waiting to attack you when you arrived. Please be careful."

Linghu Lan smiled. This was expected. Master Wang and Tu San Niang were the kind of people who wouldn't admit their mistakes until they were faced with a desperate situation. They wouldn't give up any opportunity to use someone else's power.

"Thanks for reminding me, I understand!"

The maid in green took out a mirror from her bosom and said with a smile, "This is a small mirror that my master often uses. He instructed me to give it to you, esteemed guest. If you encounter any Taoist talismans, you can use this mirror to fight back. This mirror is an antique that is hundreds of years old. It is more than enough to deal with ordinary Taoists. Please do not find it offensive and accept it!"

Linghu Lan reached out and took the mirror. This mirror was carved with a circle of intertwined flowers, inlaid with turquoise and agate, and gilded with gold powder, making it look extremely luxurious.

However, the human hand exuded a chilling aura, clearly indicating that it came from underground.

Linghu Lan held the mirror in her hand, feeling Qin Ya's goodwill. After thinking for a moment, she put it away. Although she had many talismans, she didn't have a particularly handy weapon. If this mirror could immediately reflect the Taoist's talismans back, it would indeed be much more useful than hers.
