"Grandma Hua, my nephew is here."
Here's what he needs to do!
Let's get it arranged quickly!
Li Hehua spoke to the sorceress while giving her a meaningful look.
Yu Chengyuan pretended not to see it, but in fact he had already taken in the exchange of glances between the two of them.
"You're this old lady's grandson?"
The sorceress asked, feigning concern.
"yes!
Are you a fortune teller?
The old woman Li Hehua invited, was she someone who specialized in exorcising evil spirits?
Yu Chengyuan nodded, then asked in return.
"Yes, that's me."
Your grandmother is now possessed by evil spirits and needs to be exorcised as soon as possible.
Otherwise, if this continues, your grandmother won't live much longer!
The shaman had a very sacred expression.
"Is it that serious?"
He's not going to live much longer!
I want to ask you what you need us to do to save my grandma?
Yu Chengyuan asked directly, wanting to see what they had been discussing.
He didn't hear the whole whispered conversation they had just had, because the later parts were spoken too softly to be heard clearly.
"First, as the grandson, the first thing you should do is kneel down next to your grandmother and take the beating for her—thirty lashes."
The person holding the whip must be a blood relative of yours, such as your uncle or aunt.
Let's take the first step now!
"You'll carry it out!"
The fortune teller pointed to Yu Sanzhu.
Yu Sanzhu said hypocritically, "Grandma Hua, thirty lashes are too much, aren't they?"
Could you make it less?
"No, this kind of deception is disrespectful to the gods. If we anger the gods, that evil spirit will keep possessing your grandmother."
Anyway, I've already told you all, so you can decide what to do!
Granny Hua shook her head, her expression one of utmost reverence as she said in a certain direction: "Gods, please forgive me! Gods, please forgive me!"
"Oh, so the first step is that I have to get beaten up?"
"Those two are her son and daughter-in-law, shouldn't she hit them?"
Yu Chengyuan pointed at the third brother and his wife and asked.
They don't need it.
It has to be someone of the grandchildren's generation!
Granny Hua shook her head firmly.
So it was all a setup to make himself get beaten up!
What a vicious scheme.
It's obvious they're using this as an opportunity for revenge, settling personal scores!
"Then what makes you say she's possessed by an evil spirit?"
Where can I prove this with scallions?
If you can prove she's really possessed, I'll take the beating.
Yu Chengyuan did not kneel down, but pointed to Wang Shi who was kneeling there.
"Wasn't it your third uncle and aunt who said it?"
"Call me over to exorcise the evil spirits for her!"
This young man talks way too much, doesn't he?
He's so long-winded and doesn't seem easy to fool. Am I going to fall for this brat today?
Granny Hua had a vague sense of unease, though she wasn't sure if it was just her imagination.
"My third uncle and aunt said that the old lady was possessed by an evil spirit, and she really is?"
Yu Chengyuan asked with a half-smile.
"No... I've already checked, your grandmother is indeed possessed by an evil spirit."
Didn't you see she was delirious and talking nonsense? She was clearly possessed by evil spirits.
Also, as soon as I entered the courtyard, I noticed that it was unclean.
Your grandma is possessed by something evil, so I made her kneel here and pray silently!
Then you kneel down next to her and take the whipping for her; only then can you drive away that evil spirit!
"Hurry up and kneel down to accept your punishment, or you'll be late."
The sorceress urged him on from the side and handed the whip in her hand to Yu Sanzhu.
This brat isn't cooperating; this old lady won't be able to stand kneeling here any longer.
Why should I take the punishment for her? Wouldn't it be better to let my third uncle take the punishment for her?
He's her biological son; they're much closer than I am.
Moreover, they are close relatives, so why should his grandson be punished in his place?
And what does it matter to me whether this old lady is good or bad?
Even if she died right now, I wouldn't give her a second glance.
Yu Chengyuan simply refused to kneel. They wanted him to kneel and take the beating? Dream on!
"Chengyuan, she's your grandmother, how can you talk to her like that?"
Yu Sanzhu couldn't help but rebuke him.
"Yu Sanzhu, stop talking to me like an elder."
Because you don't deserve it!
Hurry up and tell me about the second step. Anyway, the first step requires me to kneel down and get beaten, which is something I can't possibly do.
"Or, Uncle, you can do it!"
Yu Chengyuan shrugged indifferently, as if to say, "That's just how I am, so what?"
Actually, he knew that the most crucial thing for them was that pot of dog blood!
Because they firmly believed he was possessed by an evil spirit, and only dog blood could restore him to his former state.
So they would endure it for the sake of that bowl of dog blood.
"Li Hehua, your nephew isn't cooperating. What am I supposed to do?"
It's all that woman's fault for coming up with such a terrible idea. How could anyone possibly obediently kneel there and be whipped 30 times?
It's obvious that this young man doesn't get along with that old woman.
Wang, who was kneeling there, almost got up, but her daughter-in-law secretly pressed her down, preventing her from getting up.
If she jumps up, wouldn't all her efforts be wasted?
"Mother, please bear with it a little longer!"
Hearing her daughter-in-law whispering in her ear, she could only endure it.
Yu Sanzhu wouldn't be so foolish as to go and get whipped for nothing.
So he went to the sorceress and hinted that she should use the dog's blood he had prepared.
Who knew her daughter-in-law would say, "Sanzhu, why don't you take those thirty lashes for your mother!"
Even for Mother's sake...
If you don't get beaten up, you can smoothly use the dog blood technique in the next step!
