Guo Zhengde is a hypocrite, the kind who wants to be a prostitute while also maintaining a virtuous image.

Therefore, Li Sao and her husband were "warmly" received and introduced to the fat lama.

With the high level of spiritual attainment, the lama was able to determine at a glance that the child's soul had left his body, and the only way to cure it was to summon back the soul.

And he is confident that he can summon back the lost soul.

However, the conditions for helping were so harsh that Li Sao and her husband simply couldn't meet them—they needed to offer him and their child gold equal to their own weight!

You know, a one-year-old baby weighs at least 20 pounds, which is 10 kilograms or 10,000 grams.

If one gram of gold is worth 400 yuan, it would cost the fat lama four million yuan to donate it!

Not only could Li's family not afford such a large sum of money, but even if you included the entire nation, how many families could come up with four million yuan in cash at once?

We're talking about cash, not the kind where you have to go bankrupt or sell your house and land.

Moreover, even if Sister Li wanted to sell the house and land, the houses in the small town weren't worth that much money.

In utter desperation, he could only kneel down and beg desperately.

Unfortunately, as soon as the fat lama heard that they had no money, he immediately turned around and left.

There was absolutely no pity or sympathy whatsoever!

After Guo Zhengde politely saw Li Sao and her husband out, they felt like the sky had fallen.

Just when they were at their most desperate, a voice suddenly rang in the couple's ears, telling them to come and find Zhao Youliang.

So the couple, like drowning people grasping at a last straw, went straight to the paper-making shop without thinking.

After Li Sao and her husband finished explaining what had happened, they were about to kneel down to Zhao Youliang again.

At the same time, he took out 60,000 yuan from his pocket and put it all in front of Zhao Youliang.

"Quantum, this is all the savings we have, we've withdrawn it all!"

"If it's not enough, we can take out a loan or borrow!"

"Just give us some time! We beg you, please save the child first!"

Although Zhao Youliang was poor, so poor that even beggars felt sorry for him, he deeply understood the principle of "a gentleman loves money, but he acquires it in a proper way" under the education of his adoptive father.

Therefore, it's simply impossible for them to accept money from this couple.

He nodded in agreement as he pulled them up from the ground.

"Sister-in-law Li, brother, get up quickly!"

"I absolutely don't want the money, I'll do everything I can to save the child!"

"I'm just afraid that my abilities are limited and I won't be able to help you!"

Hearing Zhao Youliang agree, Li Sao and her husband were deeply moved and insisted on giving Zhao Youliang the money again.

In the end, Zhao Youliang pretended to be angry, and Li Sao and her husband nervously took the money back.

Alas, the hearts of parents are always full of love and worry.

After calming the couple down for the time being, Zhao Youliang didn't even have time to ask who sent them to find him before asking the prisoner in his mind.

"Brother, do you know how to summon spirits? Are you confident you can save this child?"

The prisoner nodded slightly upon hearing this: "Quantum, summoning a spirit is not a profound magic. There are even many folk methods for summoning spirits."

"But this family said that they had consulted several different shamanic practices before, but none of them could solve the problem. There must be some hidden reason that we don't know about."

“Quantum, let them come in through the back door and into our main hall.”

"I'll give the child a proper check-up."

After Li Sao and her husband came in with the child, Zhao Youliang took the child and placed him on the bed.

When I opened the child's clothes, I was shocked to find a hideous ghost face growing on his chest!

The demon's face resembled a burly man, with an iron-blue color and sharp teeth, as if it might burst out of the child's chest at any moment!

Upon seeing this, Zhao Youliang was startled.

The Li couple were equally startled: "What...what is this?!"

"It wasn't there when I woke up this morning, how did it suddenly appear on the child's body?!"

"Quantum, sister-in-law, please, please save my poor child!"

Seeing that the prisoner was about to kneel down to him again, Zhao Youliang could only stop him while silently asking himself the same question.

"Brother Qiu, do you recognize this?"

"Why do I feel like this thing is so eerie? It's like it's been staring at me the whole time!"

The prisoner was also surprised: "Ghost-Faced Marquis, it's actually Ghost-Faced Marquis!"

"How could such a bizarre thing appear here!"

The book implies that the Ghost-Faced Marquis mostly appears in the Xiangxi area and rarely causes trouble in other places.

Due to the climate, mosquitoes are rampant in western Hunan, which often leads to outbreaks of plague.

In ancient times, people believed that this was the work of plague demons, so they came up with all sorts of ways to drive them away.

This exorcism technique is roughly divided into two paths: Yin and Yang.

To put it simply: Yang magic is about praying for blessings, while Yin magic is more interesting, it's about summoning ghosts.

Fight poison with poison, use ghosts to drive away ghosts.

This ghost-faced ghost is a kind of "technique" that can summon ghosts, but this "technique" is too evil.

If the sorcerer loses control of the spell, he will be devoured by the Ghost-Faced Marquis.

After turning against its master, this thing becomes completely free and can harm people everywhere.

After listening to the prisoner's explanation, Zhao Youliang immediately understood how terrifying this thing was.

Then he suddenly thought of something: "Brother Prisoner, do you think this thing has anything to do with that big jar that ran away from our house?"

The prisoner suddenly realized: "Quantum, you're right, it must be that guy!"

“I didn’t recognize him at the time, but now that I think about it… no wonder even the Soul-Locking Chains you gave me couldn’t subdue him, and it required Brother Chang Jie’s true form to suppress him.”

Zhao Youliang, who was in a hurry to save lives, did not think carefully about what the prisoner said, and therefore did not understand why Ghost Face Hou, who could not be suppressed by the Soul-Locking Chains, was easily controlled by his Egg Brother.
