The Dead Burn Incense, Puppets Sit in the Hall

In our long-standing and historically rich land of China, many professions have their own rules and taboos. This is especially true for ancient and mysterious crafts.

For instance, when engag...

Chapter 149 You're rude, you lack martial ethics

After hearing the prisoner's words, Zhao Youliang realized that the big yellow dog cared about him so much.

Touched, I decided to bring Dog Brother some extra barbecue when I go back tonight.

In those few short words, Li Sao and her family of three walked straight toward the barbecue stall, their faces full of sinister smiles.

As mentioned earlier, this family rarely interacted with their neighbors, so the guests who were eating and drinking didn't pay much attention to them.

Only a few people gave a perfunctory greeting.

Li's family ignored everyone, simply holding their child and standing opposite Zhao Youliang, about a few meters away.

Just as Zhao Youliang was wondering what they were planning to do, he saw Li Sao suddenly lift the baby in her arms high.

At the same time, the ghost face on the baby's chest was revealed.

"Hehehe, you like to meddle in other people's business, don't you?"

"I'll smash her to death right now!"

After saying this, to everyone's astonishment, he slammed the baby he was holding high down onto the ground.

Everyone was shocked to see this, and Zhao Youliang shouted "Holy crap!" before rushing over.

Unfortunately, she was taken by Sister Li's husband, whom we'll call Big Li.

But Da Li held him tightly, grinning maliciously as he said, "Kid, don't you like meddling in other people's business?"

"Then we'll let you watch these three people die!"

After saying this, Zhao Youliang looked on in shock and bit down on his own tongue.

Zhao Youliang was now tightly held and unable to stop Da Li's actions.

Fortunately, Chang Jie intervened in time, or rather, he spat the smoke from his mouth into Da Li's mouth with a "poof".

When a ghost possesses a person, their feelings are interconnected.

Therefore, the burning cigarette butt immediately burned Da Li, causing him to scream and jump around, making it impossible for him to bite his tongue and commit suicide.

After stopping Da Li from committing suicide, Chang Jie slowly floated up, landed on Da Li's head, and then fell down with a thud.

He lit a cigarette and continued puffing away, muttering to himself as he went.

"My parents are dragons, but I am a maggot. How can this be justified?"

"We're out of cigarettes, Quantum, remember to buy some..."

Surprisingly, the originally extremely violent Da Li instantly calmed down after Chang Jie pinned him down.

Despite struggling desperately, his body twitching, he couldn't move or speak.

At the same time all of the above happened, Sister Yingchun rushed to Sister Li's side and caught the baby at the last second.

Because Sister-in-law Yingchun couldn't see ghosts, she started cursing loudly.

"Are you two crazy?! How could you throw the child...?"

Before Yingchun's sister-in-law could finish speaking, Li's sister-in-law grinned maliciously and grabbed her and the child together.

And then it opened its mouth and bit at Yingchun's fair and slender neck.

"Go to hell! You all have to die!!"

By now, all the diners had realized what was happening.

Seeing that Sister Li was actually trying to bite Sister Yingchun, several burly men quickly stepped in to stop her.

They grabbed each other by the neck and forcefully separated the two.

While helping, he also scolded, "You two are really crazy!"

"Let go! Let go now!!"

Just as everyone's attention was focused on Li Sao and her husband, the baby being held in Yingchun's arms suddenly revealed a sinister smile.

He then bit down hard on the arm that Yingchun's sister-in-law was holding him.

At the same time, the ghostly face on the baby rapidly moved towards Yingchun's sister-in-law, clearly trying to possess her.

Others, lacking the ability to see ghosts, naturally couldn't see any of this.

Upon discovering this, Zhao Youliang shouted urgently, "Sister, quickly give me the child!"

"What?" So much happened in that instant, and it happened so fast that Sister Yingchun couldn't react at all, her face full of blankness.

At this critical moment, a black light emanated from Sister Yingchun, transforming into a giant hand invisible to ordinary people, which slapped Ghost Face hard across the face.

Ghost Face screamed as he was sent flying, and after falling to the ground, he couldn't get up for a long time.

The black light emanating from it was the "token" that Zhao Youliang had previously instructed Yingchun's sister-in-law to carry with her at all times—the token given to her by the ghost messenger.

It's no wonder that Ghost-Faced Marquis is so unlucky; of all people to possess, he had to choose Sister-in-law Yingchun, who wears the Ghost Messenger's token...

On the other side, the Ghost-Faced Hou, who was possessing Li Sao's body, saw that his two companions had failed and immediately screamed and flew up, rushing towards Chang Jie, who was suppressing Da Li.

Seeing this, Chang Jie looked helpless and slowly spoke.

"You want two against one? You're rude and lack martial ethics."

"Sigh, my parents are both dragons, why am I a maggot...?"

As Egg Boy muttered to himself, the already enraged prisoner suddenly attacked, slamming a heavy punch into the ghost's face as it lunged at him.

Seeing this, Ghost Face quickly dodged, and with a sinister laugh, he picked up his companion who had been sent flying by the token and flew out of the town with a whoosh.

"You wait, we will be back."

"You all must die!"

Zhao Youliang wanted to chase after them when he saw this, but suddenly he heard all the dogs in the town start barking wildly.

Then, led by their own rogue dog, they all chased after the fleeing Ghost-Faced Marquis.

Zhao Youliang even saw the two little paper figures, which were the two lackeys he was talking about, kneeling on the big yellow dog's neck and kowtowing to the hooligan dog.

While banging on the door, he excitedly shouted in his childish voice, "Master Huang is mighty! Master Huang is invincible!"

"Master Huang is the best in the world!"

Seeing this, Zhao Youliang felt both helpless and amused, and at the same time said to the prisoner in his heart.

"Big brother, I'm a little worried about the hooligan dog."

"Yes!" The prisoner nodded deeply, then transformed into a wisp of black smoke and drifted away: "Don't worry, Quantum, I'll go help Big Yellow right now!"

......

At the barbecue stall, without the Ghost-Faced Marquis's possession, Sister Li was just an ordinary woman, and therefore naturally she was firmly controlled by several burly men.

However, her face was full of confusion and fear: "What are you going to do?"

"How did I get here? What happened to my husband? Where are my children?!"

The baby, now free from the evil spirit's possession, burst into tears upon hearing its mother's voice.

Upon seeing this, Sister-in-law Yingchun immediately looked at Zhao Youliang.

After Zhao Youliang nodded, he signaled everyone to release Li Sao and handed the child over.

"Sister-in-law, don't be afraid. Your whole family was just entangled by something evil. The monsters were just trying to help you."

"Dirty thing?" Upon hearing Yingchun's words, Li Sao seemed to recall something and hurriedly hugged the child, thanking everyone around her repeatedly.

At the same time, she cried and asked Zhao Youliang, "Quantum, what happened to my brother?"

"Can you cure him?"

Zhao Youliang nodded gently upon hearing this: "Don't worry, Sister Li, I'll do my best!"

No sooner had he finished speaking than a cold laugh rang out. It was the fat monk who had arrived at the barbecue stall accompanied by Guo Zhengde.

"You brat, you dare to claim you've completely rid yourself of the Ghost-Faced Marquis?"

"Don't you know that once someone has been possessed by Ghost-Faced Marquis, it's like being 'homeless'?!"
