Chapter 195 Buy! No! Afford!
Gripping the baseball bat tightly, Meng Xi panted heavily and pushed the low cabinet next to her to the bedroom door to block it. On the low cabinet was pasted the talisman to ward off evil spirits that she had learned a few days ago.
Not only the low cabinets, but also the windows, door panels, bedside tables, walls, and all the places she could think of were covered with talismans.
At this moment, Meng Xi was full of regret. He had clearly pasted talismans on all sides of the house, but why did he forget about the sewer?
The noise outside the door continued, even louder than at first. She didn't know how many companions the two ghosts had called over. They could imitate human voices and attack her nerves with the stench of sewers.
Just as Meng Xi was biting her lip nervously, the door was knocked again.
"Meng Xi? It's okay. Sister-in-law has already caught the ghost. Open a crack and I'll show you the little ghost jumping through the fire ring~"
It was Teng An's voice.
Meng Xi swallowed his saliva, but instead of relaxing, he slammed the door with his stick, "Get out! Don't try to trick me!"
Don't try to fool her a second time with the same trick.
If she hadn't heard Teng An's voice outside the house in the morning, she wouldn't have opened the door and invited these ghosts in, let alone wet the talismans when pouring water for them, putting her in a passive position at this moment.
"Tsk. What did you do to scare others like this?"
Meng Xi couldn't recall who the owner of the clear male voice was, and the ghost howls almost pierced her eardrums.
"Ahhhhhhh! Sir, please spare me! Please spare me! I didn't do anything, I didn't do anything!"
"It was him! He was the one who said that this girl had too much Yin energy and that she needed to eat some tonic. It was all his fault. I was just an accomplice—ah!"
The howling of ghosts and wolves was accompanied by the smell of paper ashes, and Meng Xi's tense nerves suddenly relaxed a little.
"Master Qin?"
Could it be that Teng An really brought people here?
"Leave...leave the ghosts, sister-in-law! Just let them serve as underworld consultants for Meng Xi!"
So unreliable, maybe it really is Teng An?
With lips tightly pursed, Meng Xi's eyes were sharp. He swung the baseball bat again, and the door panel made a dull sound. "If you have the guts, come over and fight me one-on-one. Don't think that a few brats can fool me by putting on a show together."
Teng An outside the door had a headache. Meng Xi was smart and bold, but her only problem was her stubbornness - once she had made up her mind, it was basically impossible to change it.
Teng An was about to continue persuading when he was pulled by the person next to him. He looked down and saw a yellow talisman flying out from the crack in the door below, rising slowly with the sound of unclear chanting from inside.
"Sister-in-law, how do you think she is doing?"
Completely giving up on correcting Teng An's annoying name, Qin Qinsen pinched a corner of the talisman paper that took a minute to rise to his chest and said calmly, "Too slow, more training is needed."
After saying that, without waiting for the person inside to respond, he covered the door lock with his right hand, and with a click, the door opened a crack.
state--!
There was a louder collision than before. Just when Meng Xi was about to knock for the second time, he finally saw the person coming through the gap.
clang.
His grip loosened, and the baseball bat fell to the ground. Meng Xi's legs were sore, and he had to hold on to the low cabinet to stand steadily. His voice was a little weak, "Master Qin... wait a moment, I'll take my time."
Teng An let out a strange cry and said unconvincedly, "How come you believe it just because you see my sister-in-law? I almost made my lips break just now, and you are so stubborn!?"
Meng Xi pointed at the useless talisman paper held in someone's hand and said, "Abbey Master Su said that unless someone is Master Qin or a fierce and fierce ghost, no one else can do it."
If it was Master Qin, then she would naturally be saved. If not, it proved to be a fierce ghost, and no matter how much she resisted, it would be useless. It would be better to choose a more comfortable death.
Qin Qinsen shook his head, "Your killing ghost spell is too slow, Bu Fang can stop it."
"Who is Bufang?"
Teng An signaled Meng Xi to open the door quickly and come out. "Little monk, you are so cute and powerful. I will take you to see him next time."
When Meng Xi finally regained his strength, he pushed open the low cabinet and walked out of the bedroom, only to see the computer lying on the floor and the talisman paper stuck together into a ball of waste paper.
"Didn't you buy the yellow paper?" Qin Qinsen picked up the white paper under the coffee table.
He had used A4 paper to draw talismans before, but that didn't mean everyone could do it effectively. At least not Meng Xi.
"They're all used up." Pointing at the marks on the wall, Meng Xi was a little depressed. "Every wall has a talisman to ward off evil spirits, but the sewer was forgotten."
So the two ghosts took advantage of the time when Meng Xi was fully immersed in her creation, crawled in from the sewer, soaked the talisman paper with clean water from a distance, and asked other wild ghosts to change their shapes, pretend to be Teng An and knock on her door.
Hearing this, Qin Qinsen frowned.
Since he entered the door, he has only caught two ghosts.
"The other three should have been killed by the Ghost Killing Curse?" Meng Xi saw his doubt and said quickly, "I practiced with Master Su for hundreds of times before I drew four Ghost Killing Curses. The one in your hand is the last one..."
Teng An: "Why are you still painting it yourself? Why don't you buy a few more from him?"
Meng Xi said angrily, "After the discount, it's only 8,800. I can't afford it!"
After saying that, he picked up the cracked computer with a distressed look on his face. "I don't know if it can still be turned on. I have to quickly export the files inside."
So Qin Qinsen and Teng An watched helplessly as the man who had just escaped danger ran away with the computer in his arms.
"Hey! Meng Xi—" Teng An stretched out his arms towards the departing person, his face full of confusion, "What is she doing... us...?"
"Why are you standing there? Clean up." Qin Qinsen picked up a stack of white paper from the ground and stuffed it into Teng An's arms. He carefully examined the white paper talisman drawn by Meng Xi.
The strokes are clear and smooth, but it's a pity that the person who drew the talisman has too little skill, or has no foundation, so the talisman on the white paper has little effect. No wonder it can't even protect against wild ghosts.
After sending the hourly worker away, Teng An lay comfortably on the sofa. Before he had enough rest, the owner of the house came back.
"...Why are you here?"
Seeing Meng Xi's shocked expression, Teng An said unhappily, "You left us here and ran away. I was about to ask you why you ran away!"
Scratching the back of his head, Meng Xi's expression changed from confusion to realization, and he smiled embarrassedly.
"I forgot, haha."
What a great “Haha”.
Teng An rolled his eyes. "The people you asked me to find. Here, the consultant in the world of the living - Master Qin, the rising star of the Xuanmen sect. The consultant in the underworld - Sewer Ghost x2."
Turning his head as Teng An said, Meng Xi was horrified to find that the two wild ghosts were really jumping through a ring of fire.
Literally…jumping through hoops of fire.
Qin Qinsen made a hand gesture with his right hand and pointed at ghosts with his left hand, and whoever he pointed at would jump.
The wild ghost, who had teased humans that morning and treated Meng Xi like a meal, now looked aggrieved, his form constantly shifting as the flames expanded and contracted. He covered his mouth with his hands, as if afraid that if he made the slightest noise, some great demon would tear him apart.
Meng Xi involuntarily joined Qin Qinsen's team and watched the wild ghost jump through the fire ring carefully.
Teng An: "...you two, why don't we do something serious?"
