It was a kind of movement that was difficult to describe in words.
At first glance, it sounds like ghosts wailing and wolves howling, but upon closer listening, it is actually the sound of something being driven away from the room.
The three masters of metaphysics became alert.
There really was something in the room, but they hadn't noticed it at all.
Nie Yuchen frowned deeply. He wasn't sure if it was just his imagination, but he felt like he could hear those things talking.
They seemed to be saying, "Don't eat me!"
"..."
Nie Yuchen felt that this must be his own hallucination. He could never have heard these things. It must be because he was too tired.
Mingluo calmly watched as the talisman paper swept across the entire room. She occasionally formed a few hand seals, directing the spiritual energy to fly to the missed areas.
A moment later.
All sounds fell silent.
The atmosphere in the room was different; the gloom, stuffiness, gloom, and staleness were gone, replaced by a fresh and free breeze.
Not only did Master Gu and his two companions feel it, but Fan's parents and Fan Wensi also clearly felt the surging, vibrant energy that contained life force. This kind of house is the kind of place where people can truly live.
Mr. and Mrs. Fan exchanged excited glances, wishing they could immediately ask Mingluo to help them dispel the bad luck. However, since the three masters were still there, they were afraid of offending these people from the Xuanmen sect, so they held back and decided to wait a while.
Minglu smiled slightly and said calmly, "How do you feel now that the exorcism is complete?"
Master Lin's face turned ashen, and he stared at Mingluo in disbelief. "What... what exactly happened just now?"
Minglu chuckled softly.
These things are called bad luck in this world, but in her world they are called evil spirits, a kind of extremely low-level resentment that rarely develops its own intelligence.
Such things are insignificant in the realm of gods; they can be reduced to ashes with a mere wave of the hand.
Upon arriving in this world, she had to painstakingly exorcise the evil spirits; she had truly become weaker...
“Where there is spiritual energy, people can cultivate. Where there is resentment, resentment can also transform into spirits. The reason you couldn’t turn the inauspicious location into auspicious one was because these things can move. If you had used a severing formation or a immobilizing talisman to immobilize them, these things would have been easier to get rid of.”
"So that's how it is!" Master Gu sighed. It turned out that the bad luck in this house was so great that it could even generate spirits. It was truly unexpected.
He felt it necessary to explain to Mr. and Mrs. Fan, so he said, "Mr. Fan, it's not that we didn't try our best, but such dangerous eight ominous positions are extremely rare, and there are almost no ones that can transform into spirits."
"Thank you so much, Master Gu, Master Lin, and Master Zhao. I understand. I am already extremely grateful that you three came. Thank you!" Mr. Fan said hurriedly.
Minglu sat on the sofa in a lazy and comfortable posture, her beautiful eyes glancing sideways at the three old men.
She said casually, "So? Are you ready to accept the loss?"
Master Lin instinctively clutched his pocket, looking distressed.
Why did he feel that this girl was plotting against them from the very beginning?
She's setting a trap for them to fall into!
Who would have thought that a young girl in her early twenties with blond hair would be so powerful, able to draw talismans and exorcise the four evil spirits without even having to rearrange the formation?
He said, "Little girl, is there any need to be so serious? How about you change your condition? As long as you don't want anything, I can agree to anything you ask for."
Minglu scoffed, her gaze sweeping disdainfully over Master Lin before turning to Master Gu. "Master Gu, what do you think?"
Master Gu remained silent for a moment.
He didn't intend to renege on his debt; he did indeed plan to give Mingluo something, but he couldn't be in charge of the other two, otherwise, he would inevitably incur jealousy.
He glanced at Nie Yuchen subconsciously and saw that the other man had a smile on his lips, but the light in his eyes revealed hostility.
He instantly knew what was going on today and that they wouldn't be allowed to act recklessly.
Nie Yuchen was very protective of this little girl.
He gave Master Lin and Master Zhao a meaningful look and decided to play the villain himself. Offending these two colleagues was a little better than offending Nie Yuchen.
He sighed deeply, "Old Lin, a bet is a bet. It's only right for the three of us seniors to give a gift to the juniors. Besides, we've witnessed such a warding-off-bad-luck technique today, so it's all worth it."
As he spoke, he took a compass out of his pocket.
It was an obsidian compass, engraved with the eight trigrams, with the Tai Chi symbol in the center, a golden tassel below, and black beads strung together to form a necklace above.
You can wear this compass around your neck on ordinary days, and it's convenient to take it out and use it.
Moreover, this compass was an item he had carefully and properly kept, and he figured it would suit Mingluo well.
Mingluo's eyes brightened slightly. It was rare for her to discover that this thing contained a trace of spiritual power. If she could use this spiritual power, would she be able to cultivate in this world?
She reached out and took the item, then solemnly thanked him, saying, "Thank you, Master Gu."
Without saying a word, Master Zhao took out a green jade thumb ring from his pocket, handed it to Mingluo, and said, "This thing can moisturize the skin and beautify the complexion."
Minglu smiled slightly and casually accepted it.
This jade thumb ring might be alright, but it's just a thumb ring, far inferior to an obsidian compass; it's merely a common item.
Her gaze shifted to Master Lin, a half-smile playing on her lips. "Only Master Lin remains. If you don't want to give it, then forget it… However, the mysteries are profound, the gates to all wonders. For those in the Xuanmen sect, if the bet fails, I wonder if retribution will come knocking?"
Master Lin's expression changed drastically. People in the Xuanmen sect naturally believe in these mysterious things and are very convinced of the concept of retribution.
"Why do you have to be so rude, girl? I'll give it to you, sigh, really..."
He was filled with regret; he had shot himself in the foot today, never expecting to lose money.
He's a stingy old man by nature; you can ask him to bring things in, but asking him to take things out is like asking him to die.
He thought about it carefully. Everything in his pocket had special meaning to him. He had worked hard to find it. If he gave it all to Mingluo, he would feel the pain of losing every single one of them.
Suddenly—
He suddenly remembered that he had just received a small gift last time, which he was going to give to his grandson, so he decided to use it to fool Mingluo.
Soon, he pulled something out of his pocket: an extremely small figure.
The little figure is carved from wood and exudes a faint fragrance. The eyes, eyebrows, and nose of the little figure are carved lifelike and very exquisite. Most importantly, the joints and limbs can move, just like a real person.
Master Lin said, "Here, take this. Don't be put off by the fact that it's made of wood. Anything I like is a good thing. You can have it."
