Chapter 15: Kill this beast!
Shen Shilang quickly backed away with a red face, "You... don't do this outside."
Shen Shilang blushed and ran home quickly.
He was afraid that Su Jinshi would touch him again outside.
As soon as Mrs. Wei and Wei Ruyan returned home, they heard Butler Zhou report that a ghost had appeared in the accounting office today.
"What kind of ghost is this in broad daylight?" Mrs. Wei had never heard of a ghost appearing in the daytime. "Tell him not to be suspicious."
Steward Zhou bent his waist and lowered his head and said, "That's what the servant said, but he was really scared. He said there was no wind in the room at the time, but the account book was being turned page by page, as if someone was reading it."
Wei Ruyan whispered, "Mom, maybe it's a powerful ghost? My second brother and I really saw one that night."
"Mom, didn't you say that we would ask a Taoist priest to take a look after Dad left?" Wei Ruyan said, "Why not ask a Taoist priest to come and take a look? If there is, we can drive it away. If not, we can rest assured. There is no loss anyway."
Madam Wei thought about it, and then said to Butler Zhou: "Butler Zhou, please go to Baiyun Temple and ask Taoist Li to come and have a look."
"yes."
Butler Zhou was about to leave when he heard Wei Ruyan ask, "By the way, Butler Zhou, is Shen Shilang back?"
Butler Zhou was stunned for a moment. Normally, no one in the mansion would pay attention to when Shen Shilang went out or when he came back.
He really didn't know the answer to Wei Ruyan's question, so he said, "I'll ask someone to go and take a look."
"You go to Baiyun Temple and ask someone to keep an eye on it. If Shen Shilang comes back, tell me." Wei Ruyan said.
"yes."
After Butler Zhou left, Madam Wei warned Wei Ruyan, "Don't always cause trouble for Shen Shilang. You beat him up before and your father almost found out."
"It will take a long time for my father to come back, so I won't let him know." Wei Ruyan didn't care at all.
After Shen Shilang came back, a servant immediately came to tell Wei Ruyan.
Wei Ruyan brought her men and came to Shen Shilang's courtyard in a threatening manner.
Today, because of Shen Shilang, she was unable to buy the hairpin she liked.
That hairpin might have been bought by Cheng Ruoyu.
Who knows how the shopkeeper would laugh at her behind her back!
Wei Ruyan has always believed that she is unique among the noble ladies in Chong'an, so how could she tolerate such humiliation?
At the gate of the courtyard, the servant reminded Wei Ruyan, "Miss, I heard that Shen Shilang has a vicious dog in his yard, and it's very ferocious."
"Then kill the dog too." Wei Ruyan said nonchalantly, "Don't you all have sticks?"
"yes."
"Open the door!" Wei Ruyan ordered impatiently.
The servant kicked open the door of the courtyard, and a brown shadow flashed before his eyes.
Youmi rushed over and stood guard inside the door, barking a warning at the intruders and taking a defensive stance to ward off the enemy.
"If I can't kill Shen Shilang, how can I kill one of Shen Shilang's dogs?" Wei Ruyan waved her hand, "Beat him to death with a stick!"
Shen Shilang heard the noise outside the house and rushed out.
But he was still not as close to Youmi as the servants standing at the door with sticks.
It seemed that the stick was about to fall on Youmi.
If these sticks hit him, Shen Shilang could endure it.
But it won’t work if you hit Youmi!
With the company of Su Jinshi and Youmi, Shen Shilang felt no longer alone for the first time.
He can't do without any of them now.
"Stop!" Shen Shilang rushed forward with red eyes, but unfortunately he was still a step too slow.
Seeing Shen Shilang losing his composure like this, Wei Ruyan laughed heartily.
That day, when Shen Shilang was forced to kneel on the ground by servants and whipped by Wei Jianming himself, Shen Shilang did not act like this.
Shen Shilang said nothing at the time, not even a word of begging for mercy.
But now Shen Shilang has changed his appearance just for a dog.
"Beat him!" Wei Ruyan shouted, "Beat this beast to death!"
"Youmi, come back!" Shen Shilang couldn't catch up, so he could only shout to Youmi.
Unfortunately, Youmi was loyal to his master and refused to come back.
Just when the stick was about to fall on Youmi, Su Jinshi clicked the stick hard on the screen.
When the servants took the sticks and smashed them down, they felt a huge resistance that prevented them from falling.
Su Jinshi pressed the sticks and slid them to the side.
The servants holding sticks watched helplessly as all the sticks in their hands were thrown away as if by an invisible hand.
Please...collect 6...9...books...!
Unfortunately, there was no one in front of them.
Shen Shilang hurried forward and pulled Youmi back.
"Miss...Miss..." The servant was so frightened that his legs were shaking, his face was ashen, and he stammered.
Now rumors of ghosts are spreading throughout the mansion.
Now it was broad daylight and they ran into us.
Wei Ruyan had already seen it. Her pupils were dilated, and she pointed at Shen Shilang with a pale face, "Sure enough...Sure enough it was you! You summoned the ghost!"
Shen Shilang said in a deep voice: "A gentleman should not speak of strange things, so Miss Wei, please be careful with your words."
"You've seen it all, and you still want me to be careful with my words?" Wei Ruyan felt more and more that this ghost was closely related to Shen Shilang.
Wei Ruyan turned around and ran towards Mrs. Wei's yard.
Servant, look at me and I look at you.
The ladies have all left, so they... shouldn't stay here, right? They all ran away one by one.
Shen Shilang bent down and touched Youmi's head, saying, "Youmi, when someone comes in the future, you don't need to guard the door. If they want to come in, just let them in."
Youmi tilted his head with a confused look in his eyes, and his tail kept wagging.
"I know you are loyal, but they are holding sticks, which is too dangerous for you." Shen Shilang said, "You have to protect yourself first, understand?"
"Woo woo..." Youmi wagged his tail and whimpered, as if he understood.
Wei Ruyan hurried over to Madam Wei, "Mother! Mother!"
"Why are you so reckless? Do you still behave like a lady?" Madam Wei asked Wei Ruyan to sit over and said, "What's the matter? Tell me slowly."
"Just now I took people to Shen Shilang's yard, and there was a ghost in his yard!" Wei Ruyan said, "That ghost was summoned by Shen Shilang!"
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Mrs. Wei scolded.
“I’m not talking nonsense!” Wei Ruyan said anxiously, “The servants I brought with me saw it. The wooden sticks in their hands were thrown away out of thin air!”
"I remember..." Wei Ruyan grabbed Madam Wei's hand. Madam Wei felt that Wei Ruyan's hand was actually cold. "My second brother and I encountered a ghost that night. It was on the path not far from Shen Shilang Courtyard."
"Today, just after Shen Shilang left, the account office encountered a ghost." Wei Ruyan said, "Every time it is related to Shen Shilang!"
"Mom, this has happened to so many people, it's definitely not groundless!"
"Mom, mom!" Wei Jianming rushed in, "I heard Ruyan encountered a ghost again?"
