Li started by scolding, which made Mr. Luo a little confused.
But Gu Lingze was not afraid of these at all. Instead, he moved closer and asked, "You said you are not Li, then who are you?"
Others were puzzled to see that he was not afraid of this strange situation but even had a smile on his face.
Only Zhao Chengmo present knew that this man was just showing off his sword in front of Guan Gong, and now he just had to wait and see whether Guan Gong had the patience to continue reading.
Li glanced at Gu Lingze and saw the red mole on his forehead. She said with disdain, "I am teaching my descendants of the Luo family a lesson. Why are you, a little brother, butting in? Go away."
Gu Lingze raised his eyebrows and sat next to Zhao Chengmo. He wanted to see what this Li was up to.
When Li saw him leave, she immediately looked at Mr. Luo and said sternly, "Kneel down!"
"The Luo family has blessed you with successive generations and passed the imperial examination, but you married a young man as your principal wife. You are trying to end the inheritance of our Luo family!"
These words made County Magistrate Tan look unhappy, and Mr. Luo was at a loss.
"If you still recognize me as your great grandfather, divorce Tan Leming immediately, marry a woman, and expand the Luo family."
"Otherwise I will take your mother away and separate you and your son from each other!"
After saying this, Li's limbs twitched, and he fell on the bed with saliva spitting out.
Seeing this, the woman next to her rushed to the bedside, calling "Auntie".
Mr. Luo no longer dared to look directly at his father-in-law's expression. Apart from the woman's shouting, no one spoke. The scene was very awkward.
"Have you seen a doctor before?" Gu Lingze broke the silence and asked.
"After watching it, I said it was hysteria."
"Hysteria? I don't think so." Gu Lingze glanced at Li who was still pretending to sleep.
"Your mother is clearly possessed by a ghost."
Gu Lingze's words immediately shocked Mr. Luo, and County Magistrate Tan also looked at him.
"If he is really your great grandfather, how could he be so cruel as to take your mother's life just because of your marriage?"
After hearing this, Mr. Luo also became hesitant.
"I believe you have heard a little about Mr. Zhen's family affairs. I know a little bit about the mystical arts. Your mother has just encountered an evil spirit and is now in a state of confusion."
"If we delay any further, the consequences will be disastrous."
When Mrs. Li heard this, she quickly pinched the back of her niece's hand.
The woman felt pain and reacted immediately. She quickly jumped up and pointed at Gu Lingze and said, "You are talking nonsense. My aunt is clearly sick because of Tan Leming. What gods and ghosts? Stop exaggerating here."
After hearing this, Gu Lingze turned around and called Zhao Chengmo to leave, but Mr. Luo called out to stop the two of them.
"Please stay, gentlemen."
At this point, he could only give it a try, so he bowed to Gu Lingze with a sincere attitude.
"My cousin was anxious and said something she didn't think should be said. I hope you two can understand."
"If my mother is really possessed by the evil spirit, what should we do now?"
Gu Lingze showed a meaningful expression and said, "It's not difficult, but I'm afraid your mother will suffer some physical pain."
"Take a stick made of peach wood and hit your mother's body hard until she returns to normal."
Mr. Luo frowned in embarrassment, "This..."
"Tao Mu Zhen Xie, if you don't do this, I'm afraid your mother won't get better."
Upon hearing this, the woman hurried to Mr. Luo with a look of panic on her face.
"Cousin, don't listen to his nonsense. Auntie is just angry for a moment. As long as you get a divorce and marry a girl, all her illnesses will be cured."
When Mr. Luo heard about the divorce, his heart trembled. He would not be separated from Ming Ge'er no matter what.
So he looked at Magistrate Tan with determination.
"Father-in-law, please wait here for a moment. I will go find some peach wood now."
During this time, Mr. Luo's cousin sat anxiously beside the bed. Li was now in a dilemma and was waiting in fear.
About half an hour later, Mr. Luo came back carrying something.
"Mr. Gu, do you think this is okay?" Mr. Luo handed the stick in his hand to him to look at.
Gu Lingze pretended to look at it carefully and handed it to the other party again.
"It'll be fine if it's made of mahogany."
The tools have been found, but who to get to do the work is a problem.
"This needs to be done by someone close to you, either you or..."
Gu Lingze said as he looked at the woman sitting beside the bed.
"But men are stronger, so it's better to suffer a short pain than a long one, so why not--"
"I'll do it, I'll do it!"
The woman quickly took the stick and said to Mr. Luo with a fake smile: "Cousin, as a son, how can you do it yourself? Let me do it."
After that, he walked to the bed with a stick in his hand and said to Li on the bed, "Aunt, please don't blame Xin'er. This is all to exorcise the evil spirit for you."
Gu Lingze was trying to hold back his laughter until his stomach hurt. He cleared his throat and said, "Let's get started."
The woman looked back at Mr. Luo, raised the stick and hit the quilt that Li was covering herself with.
"How can this be effective?"
Gu Lingze personally stepped forward and lifted Li's quilt. After all, he was just a young man and had no taboos.
"You have to use force. Don't you want your aunt to get better soon?"
The woman and Li, who was lying on the bed, were both gritting their teeth in hatred, but at this point, they had no choice but to go on with the show.
The woman closed her eyes, raised the stick in her hand and smashed it down.
After being hit by the stick, Li let out a muffled groan, and it was her own sound that came out.
"It's already working, try harder."
Mr. Luo was reluctant at first, but seeing that it was indeed effective, he could only suppress it temporarily.
After a dozen or so blows, Li finally reacted.
"Um...what's wrong with me?" Mr. Luo hurried forward and helped her sit up.
Li looked at the woman beside her and asked in confusion, "Xin'er, why are you holding a stick?"
When the woman heard this, she quickly threw aside the stick in her hand and rushed over with tears in her eyes.
"Aunt, you're finally well. Xin'er was scared to death."
Mr. Luo asked anxiously, "Mom, how do you feel?"
Li touched the spot where he was hit and pretended to be puzzled and asked, "Why does my body hurt so much?"
"Mom, you were possessed by a wild ghost just now. Thanks to this Mr. Gu who came up with a way to help you exorcise the evil spirit."
"In that case, I would like to thank you, young master." Li said almost gritting her teeth.
Gu Lingze looked at the fire in the other person's eyes and smiled with relief.
"Ma'am, there's no need to be so polite."
After saying this, he stood up and said goodbye to Mr. Luo.
"Since Madam has seen better, we will take our leave."
Before Li and the woman could show any smug looks, Gu Lingze gave Mr. Luo some earnest advice.
