I shuddered. There was probably more than one dirty thing behind me. I didn't know who the owner of the faint voice behind me was, but her words made me stop myself from answering the question from the woman who had spoken first.

I gritted my teeth, started the car, turned the ignition to the maximum, and the electric car sped towards Mawu Village.

"Are you Ma Changming? Why are you ignoring me?" I could vaguely hear the woman's ethereal voice from behind, which seemed to carry a hint of resentment and anger.

I didn't dare to look back, but only now did I remember that my electric scooter had a rearview mirror. So I glanced at the rearview mirror, but that one glance almost made me drop the handlebars of the scooter.

Looking in my rearview mirror, I could vaguely see a figure in a red dress standing at the intersection, facing the direction I had left. Because of the distance, I couldn't see her face clearly.

I gasped, too scared to look. I was already driving the electric scooter at top speed, but I still thought it was too slow. Finally, when we reached the corner, I couldn't help but glance at the rearview mirror. Strangely, this time I didn't see the figure in the red dress at the traffic light.

Was I just nervous and hallucinating?

I shook my head vigorously, secretly relieved, and continued on my way to Mawu Village.

But then I remembered that there might be a woman in a white dress named Ma Jiajie on the back seat, and my heart started to race again.

The goosebumps on my back hadn't gone away yet. I swallowed hard and mustered my courage to ask, "Are you Ma Jiajie?"

After I asked that question, I listened intently. I really wanted to carry Ma Jiajie on my back, but I didn't want to carry her either. I was really torn.

After waiting for a while, I didn't get any answer, only the whooshing sound of the wind in my ears and the sound of my electric scooter's motor.

I received no response, and I couldn't see Ma Jiajie sitting in the back seat in the rearview mirror, but I didn't dare to relax at all. I had a feeling that Ma Jiajie had already followed me back, perhaps somewhere I couldn't see, or perhaps she was sitting in the back seat right now, but I just couldn't see her.

Time slipped away quietly amidst my tension and anxiety. Before I knew it, I was back at the front door of Ma Dajun's house. Seeing the bright lights inside, I gradually came to my senses and rode my electric bike over.

I parked my electric scooter at the front door of Ma Dajun's house and saw Hu Tudao, Ma Dajun, and others walking towards me. Only then did I breathe a long sigh of relief, and my tense heart finally calmed down.

Ma Dajun walked up to me first, glanced at my back seat with a tense expression, and then asked me, "Brother Zuo, I wonder if you've brought my daughter back yet?"

Now I have nothing to be afraid of anymore. I glanced at the back seat, and as I saw in the rearview mirror, there was no sign of Ma Jiajie. I turned around and slowly said to Ma Dajun, "I don't know if I brought her back or not. I did what Hu Tudao instructed. The flame of the egg lamp has also turned into a ghostly blue."

"Don't worry, she's already here." Just then, Hu Tudao stepped forward and said confidently.

Upon hearing this, Ma Dajun's family immediately became anxious, especially Pang Meilian, who started sobbing, her eyes darting around as she cried out, "Xiaojie, where are you? Mom misses you so much."

Ma Jiabao circled my electric scooter, his brow furrowed, and looked at Hu Tudao, asking in a deep voice, "You said my sister is back? Where is she? You're not just making this up, are you?"

"Xiao Bao, don't be rude to Master Hu." Ma Dajun shouted, pulled Ma Jiabao behind him, and apologized to Hu Tu, "Master Hu, my son was ignorant, please don't take offense."

Hu Tudao waved his hand and said slowly, "It's alright. Your daughter has indeed been brought back by Zuo Changming. The reason you can't see her is because your yang energy is too strong, and she is just a wandering soul, which is easily dispersed by your yang energy."

I also looked around curiously. Because of the presence of Hu Tudao and others, I didn't feel scared. On the contrary, I really wanted to see what Ma Jiajie looked like.

"Master Hu, what should we do now?" Ma Dajun now completely believed Hu Tudao's words and asked, bowing slightly.

“This is indeed a bit difficult. We originally thought she was a ghost, but it turns out she’s just a wandering spirit. She can’t even show herself in front of you.” Hu Tudao pinched his chin, his tone somewhat troubled.

"Please, Master Hu, grant my daughter's wish and send her to be reincarnated as soon as possible," Ma Dajun pleaded, bowing ninety degrees to Hu Tudao.

"Hu Tudao, if you have a way, please help them." I couldn't bear to see Ma Dajun's family like this, so I said to Hu Tudao.

"Don't worry, since I've taken this job, I'll definitely do it perfectly. It's just that it will harm my body. If I use a talisman to kill her wandering soul, then your daughter will also lose the chance to be reincarnated," Hu Tu said slowly, his face showing difficulty.

"How can you do it without hurting her?" I asked.

Ma Dajun and his wife also looked at Hu Tudao expectantly, their eyes filled with hope.

"Sigh, the only way to avoid hurting her is to have her possess my body, but that will leave me weak for two or three days," Hu Tudao sighed and said slowly.

"Please, Master Hu, help me out. I'll compensate you with 500 yuan afterwards so you can buy something to help you recover," Ma Dajun said hurriedly.

"Alright, seeing how sincere you are, I'll be fine even if I'm weak for a few days." Hu Tu hesitated for a moment, but still agreed.

When Ma Dajun saw that Hu Tudao had agreed, he thanked Hu Tudao profusely.

I had a strange feeling about him, as if Hu Tudao said those things solely for the sake of the 500 yuan.

"Zuo Changming, unload the things from the car. I'm about to begin the ritual," Hu Tudao instructed me.

I nodded, went to the back seat, took out the three items and other things from the box, and put them into the winnowing basket that Ma Dajun had prepared.

"Brother Zuo, what's wrong with this chicken's leg?" Ma Dajun asked in horror when he saw the chicken without legs.

"Alright, alright, what's the big deal? If you see through something, don't say it." Hu Tudao had already changed into his yellow Taoist robe, and he really did look like a master.

"Yes, yes, yes." Ma Dajun nodded repeatedly as if he had thought of something, and packed all the Sansheng into a cardboard box, which seemed to be for Hu Tudao to take home afterward.

Actually, these are all unwritten rules. After the ritual is performed, the three souls are taken home by the master.

"Hu Tu, why are these three incense sticks like this?" I looked at the three incense sticks on the glutinous rice in the back seat, my face was very ugly. At this time, the three incense sticks on the back seat were two short and one long. There is a saying among the people that people are most afraid of three long and two short, and incense is most afraid of two short and one long.
