The sound of rustling papers could be heard, and Wei Mian's eyes had been fixed on the coffee table where the portrait was placed.
The portrait, which had previously only faintly exuded an evil aura, suddenly became much darker, and a black figure slowly emerged from the portrait.
It was a little hesitant at first, but when it saw the tempting offerings on the altar in front of it, the sweet smell of blood all around, and the devout believers kneeling there, it finally let down its guard and poked its head out of the painting.
More and more parts of it came out, and Wei Mian remained motionless. This thing was like an earthworm. If a little bit of it fell, a whole new one would quickly emerge, so it was difficult to completely eliminate it.
Soon Wei Mian saw the whole picture of the thing.
It really looks like the picture in the portrait, with a big head and a body about the size of a one or two year old child. The big head and small body look very weird just by looking at the surface.
What's more, it has four protruding eyes and eight ears on its face.
When Wei Mian saw the thing coming out, she couldn't wait to eat the sacrifice. Taking advantage of this opportunity, she quickly threw a piece of talisman paper over to completely seal the painting.
When the Four Eyes and Eight Ears heard the noise, they rushed to get into the scroll, but were waved away by Wei Mian's fan.
She flipped her wrist and attacked again.
"ah!"
A sharp and piercing howl was heard. It wanted to escape but was reluctant to leave the sacrifice uneaten. It hesitated for a long time before choosing to run away.
Wei Mian didn't care about that. Even though she hit the target, she didn't dare to be careless at all and chased in the direction the thing left.
Seeing what was happening, Four Eyes and Eight Ears quickly lay on the ground, curled up his limbs and prepared to roll to the side.
Jiang Sanchuan couldn't see but could hear, and knew that Wei Mian was already fighting with that thing. He hurriedly hugged Meng Yun and moved to the side, leaving the living room to Wei Mian.
As a result, it bumped into the four-eyed and eight-eared creature rolling over.
Jiang Sanchuan: “Ahhhhhh——”
After being blocked by him, Wei Mian caught up again and swung the jade bone fan directly at the thing.
"Squeak--" A sound a bit like a mouse, but much more shrill, was heard. The black shadow, who had been hugging his limbs tightly, loosened his limbs in pain.
It hadn't been worshipped for a long time, so it had been hungry in the past few years. Now it was unable to fight with Wei Mian, so it wanted to find something to replenish itself.
Just as he was thinking this, Jiang Sanchuan bumped into him. He suddenly stretched out his hand, and his originally short and fat fingers suddenly grew larger and grabbed Jiang Sanchuan's neck.
Jiang Sanchuan felt as if a pair of hairy hands suddenly grabbed his neck, pinching him so hard that it seemed to dig into his flesh. In an instant, his face was pinched until it lost all color.
At this time, Four Eyes and Eight Ears was also in a bad situation, because Jiang Sanchuan was carrying a talisman. It could be said that he hurt the enemy a thousand times but hurt himself eight hundred times, and Four Eyes and Eight Ears didn't have much strength left.
It originally wanted to get Jiang Sanchuan to make a tonic for itself, but the amulet caused great damage to it, and it could only barely make up for it by digesting the two people in front of it. The four-eyed and eight-eared beast couldn't help but feel a little regretful.
Wei Mian was a firm believer in "killing you while you're sick", so he took the opportunity to bite his finger and draw talismans on the jade fan.
Jiang Sanchuan's face turned increasingly pale. He could no longer feel the pain in his neck, but instead felt an discomfort he had never felt before, as if someone was pulling him hard, trying to pull him out of this body.
Jiang Sanchuan was not completely confused at this moment. He subconsciously wanted to resist, but his consciousness became more and more blurred. The second before he lost consciousness, he seemed to see a huge golden arrow stabbing towards his chest.
…
Wei Mian breathed a sigh of relief. She leaned back on the sofa in Jiang's house and felt as if all her strength had been drained from her body.
Fortunately, that thing has completely disappeared.
She paused for a moment, then slowly stood up, turned on the light, and looked at the scroll on the table.
The monster originally drawn in the painting disappeared, but the people who were kneeling around it were still there.
The fear revealed in the scroll seemed to be much weaker than before, but the despair remained. Wei Mian suspected that the person in the painting was a real soul, but was sucked into the painting by some secret method and was driven and oppressed by the monster.
Meng Yun was also quite frightened. The golden sword that Wei Mian had just stabbed at her illuminated the entire room, and even revealed some things hidden in the darkness.
Naturally, she also saw the true appearance of the creature with four eyes and eight ears, which was even more bizarre than the portrait.
Moreover, the other party opened his mouth wide as if trying to suck something from Jiang Sanchuan, and his expression looked even more ferocious.
So after the thing was broken apart, Meng Yun was unable to recover for a long time. It was Wei Mian's action of packing up that woke her up.
Meng Yun hurriedly helped Jiang Sanchuan up from the ground and checked his breathing. He still had a faint breath, "Dachuan! Dachuan!"
"He's fine, he just passed out."
The four-eyed and eight-eared creature failed to absorb Jiang Sanchuan's soul just now. In addition to the reason of the Wei Mian talisman paper, another reason was that Jiang Sanchuan had enough willpower.
That's why the monster didn't succeed.
Wei Mian just checked and found out that he fell into a coma due to excessive mental exertion. He will wake up tomorrow.
Meng Yun felt relieved when she heard that Jiang Sanchuan was fine, and she finally had the mind to check on her family.
The floor tiles in the living room were covered with chicken blood, which was dark in color and had even dried up. But when Meng Yun looked at it again, she no longer felt the fear she had before. What was more obvious was the temperature in the house. She always felt that it was a few degrees higher than before.
Wei Mian packed up his things and picked up the chicken that had almost bled out. "This—"
Meng Yun waved her hands with a pale face. She thought Wei Mian was asking her if she wanted to eat it. Meng Yun decisively refused. She didn't want to eat chicken for a few years.
Wei Mian: “…”
She took the garbage bag handed to her by Meng Yun and put the beheaded chicken in it. She would need to throw the things away later.
Meng Yun also saw the large blank space on the scroll at this time. She gasped in fear. No matter whether it was an evil god or not, in her opinion, the painting had become a spirit. It was too scary.
Wei Mian stepped forward and pointed at the little figure on the scroll. "I suspect these people were all sucked in by the monster. They must be its previous worshippers. I just need to think of a way to send them to reincarnation."
When she heard that the worshippers had all become the little people in the painting, Meng Yun was even more relieved. She quickly told Wei Mian to do whatever he wanted with the scroll, as long as it was not in her house.
It was already past three o'clock. Wei Mian packed up and was about to leave. Meng Yun pulled her aside and thanked her profusely. "I wonder if you usually take orders, Master? I heard from Jin Ling that your fortune-telling is very accurate."
Before Wei Mian could speak, Meng Yun continued,
"I work at a TV station in Qingping City, and I can talk to a lot of celebrities. There are even more people in the circle who believe in these things. If you usually take orders, I can introduce you to a few people I know well and have less work to do."
Wei Mian nodded and thanked him, leaving his card number to the other party before leaving.
After the people had left for a long time, Meng Yun suddenly remembered that she had been so busy talking that she forgot to buy two more amulets.
