Chapter 231 The Cold Buddhist Girl and the Sinister Young City Lord 27
Incense sticks were lit around the altar.
The sound of wooden fish and chanting of sutras rang out simultaneously, indicating a peaceful and quiet mind.
Cha Jiu sat cross-legged, holding the relic in his left hand and making the demon-subduing seal with his right hand over his knee.
"My spirit will enter your innermost consciousness and use the power of the relic to remove the evil spirit. So if you see me in your dream, don't resist me. Let me lead you out."
She reminded Shen Suyuan in advance.
After all, the deepest part of anyone's heart is set as an absolute forbidden area that only the self can enter.
And the evil spirit is buried there.
Only with Shen Suyuan's complete trust could Cha Jiu go in and remove the evil spirit.
Shen Suyuan nodded: "Okay, let's get started."
The two of them closed their eyes and slowly entered a state of meditation guided by the burning incense.
I don’t know how long it had passed, but the sound of raindrops could be heard in Cha Jiu’s ears.
She looked up and found herself in the Shen family corridor on a rainy afternoon.
The raindrops hit the tiled roofs softly and densely, and the cool wind blew past with moisture.
Suddenly, a young man as tall as her knees ran past her and accidentally fell to the ground.
"Ouch." He cried out in pain in a baby voice, then climbed up and sat on the ground.
Cha Jiu hurried forward to help him, but was stunned by the pair of eyes he looked back at her.
Narrow, translucent phoenix eyes, and dark jade-like pupils.
Cha Jiu was stunned: "Su Yuan"
The young version of Shen Suyuan had tears in his eyes. He tilted his head to look at her. His chubby face looked silly and innocent: "Who are you? Why have I never seen you before?"
I didn't hear my father say that there were any guests at home today.
Cha Jiu rubbed his knee, which was hurt from the fall, and said, "Oh, I am a fairy sent from heaven to check if you have finished writing the 1,000-word calligraphy copybook today."
During the time she lived in the Shen Mansion, Cha Jiu occasionally heard from Shen Zhong some embarrassing stories about Shen Suyuan's childhood.
For example, he didn't like practicing calligraphy, and in order to avoid writing calligraphy, he deliberately ate croton seeds to cause diarrhea.
At that time, Cha Jiu was very skeptical. After all, such a stupid image did not match the cold and quiet Shen Suyuan at all.
But now it seems...
Xiao Suyuan's face turned pale, his eyes were darting, and he obviously believed what Cha Jiu said. He stammered, "I, I didn't write today... for a good reason, please don't blame me, Immortal!"
Cha Jiu: “Oh, what’s the reason?”
Xiao Suyuan explained, "My mother's birthday is coming up soon, and I was in a hurry to make a gift for her, so I delayed writing."
After saying that, he looked at Cha Jiu eagerly and begged, "Please don't tell my father, or other immortals, okay?"
Cha Jiu noticed that his attitude towards Li at this time was still close and loving.
"good."
Xiao Suyuan finally breathed a sigh of relief, got up, picked up the lotus lantern on the ground, and walked forward while explaining to Cha Jiu:
"It took me two days and two nights to make this lotus lantern. My mother has been weak since she was young, and I wanted to make this lotus lantern to pray for her."
"There are also handwritten scriptures in it. When I go to the river with her and release them, the Buddha will see them and bless her with a long and healthy life."
Xiao Suyuan was in high spirits when he talked about this.
He took Cha Jiu through the long winding corridor. When they passed by the stone steps with accumulated water, he would stop, stretch out his chubby little hands to support Cha Jiu, worried that she would slip.
"Be careful." His brows were bright and sunny, completely different from the gloomy look he had when he grew up.
Cha Jiu held Xiao Suyuan's hand and came to Li's yard.
Thunder roared, the sky suddenly became darker, and the courtyard was very gloomy.
Xiao Suyuan made a "huh" gesture to Chajiu, then tiptoed to the small Buddhist temple in the corner of the courtyard and quietly opened the door a little.
He wanted to see if Li was inside.
However, the scene inside made his clear eyes widen slowly, and then fear welled up in his eyes.
In the dark Buddhist temple, Li was pinning his eldest son, Shen Suyuan's elder brother, in an evil formation.
Purple light from lightning occasionally shone through the window, illuminating the eldest son's miserable condition.
He was barely ten years old when his limbs were pierced by thick bronze nails with ghost heads and nailed into the floor. He cried and begged, "Mother! It hurts so much! Please..."
Li remained unmoved, with a sinister look on her face, and pried open his mouth to feed him a slippery black parasite.
The worm swam under the skin, leaving mottled black lines. The young master struggled desperately, and blood flowed from his limbs.
Xiao Suyuan was frightened and pulled his hand back, but he accidentally knocked the door open, making a noise.
Li turned around suddenly, his eyes as vicious as a poisonous snake.
"Su Yuan, you're here." She forced out a ghostly smile, "It's just right, you and your brother can be my 'feed' together."
Having said that, she strode over, her claws grabbing at me like a devil.
Tears as big as beans welled up in Xiao Suyuan's eyes. He was frightened and at a loss, stumbling back.
The lotus lantern that fell to the ground was crushed.
He fell into an embrace that exuded a pure and clean aura.
Cha Jiu picked up the little boy and calmly waved the Buddhist beads in his hand towards Li who was rushing towards him.
“Pah—”
Li's beautiful face was immediately covered with several deep bloodstains, and she seemed to have been knocked to the ground by an invisible force.
She screamed, covered her face and looked at Cha Jiu, feeling both fear and hatred: "Who are you?"
Cha Jiu ignored her and said softly to the little Su Yuan in her arms: "Close your eyes and hold me tight, okay?"
Xiao Suyuan was so scared that he was shaking all over. He put his soft arms around Cha Jiu's neck and buried his head in her neck. He cried and begged, "Save my brother, please."
She is a fairy from heaven, there must be a way!
Cha Jiu patted his head and said, "Okay."
Li did not dare to underestimate it and threw out a few pieces of corpse oil talismans.
The talisman paper spontaneously combusted in the air and turned into a blue-green ghost-faced flame, which rushed towards Cha Jiu with its fangs and claws bared.
The relic in Cha Jiu's arms suddenly glowed and dispersed the will-o'-the-wisp fire.
Li suffered a severe backlash, vomiting blood, and hurriedly jumped out of the window to leave.
The young master on the ground was already breathing out, but no longer breathing in.
Cha Jiu pulled out the four copper nails.
Xiao Suyuan jumped out of Cha Jiu's arms, hugged his bleeding brother helplessly, and cried heartbreakingly.
Cha Jiu hugged his small shoulders and sighed in his heart.
This is a memory deep in Shen Suyuan's heart.
In other words, everything that is happening before our eyes really happened.
When he was young, he witnessed his mother cruelly sacrificing his brother to the Circle of Justice.
At the same time, he himself was not spared.
How desperate this is
Finally, Cha Jiu carefully picked up the weak eldest son, and took Xiao Suyuan with him, walked out of this nightmarish Buddhist temple and headed towards a bright and crowded place.
When the servants saw the eldest son's appearance, they were all frightened and quickly looked for a doctor to treat him.
Strangely, they did not question Cha Jiu's identity.
The system explained: "Your existence in Shen Suyuan's consciousness has been set to be absolutely reasonable."
so it is.
…
The young Shen Zhong hurried over to check on his eldest son.
Fortunately, the appearance of Cha Jiu interrupted Li's spell. Apart from losing too much blood and being frightened, the eldest son had no other problems and was not cursed.
When he regained consciousness, he told Shen Zhong about Li's evil deeds. Shen Zhong was furious and immediately ordered the city to be sealed off and the vicious woman Li to be executed.
The eldest son was frightened and weak, but when he saw his younger brother lying on the bed crying miserably, he turned around and comforted him softly, "Brother is fine, don't be afraid."
After saying that, he looked around and said, "Where is the sister who saved us? Please thank her for me."
Xiao Suyuan poked his head around and saw Cha Jiu standing in the courtyard not far away through the crowd.
He ran over quickly.
"Sister Fairy, thank you for saving me and my brother." He raised his head, his moist eyes filled with gratitude.
Cha Jiu couldn't help but pinch his chubby little face: "You're welcome."
"Will you stay in the Shen family?" Xiao Suyuan looked at her eagerly, "If you stay, my brother and I will feel at ease."
Cha Jiu squatted down and looked him in the eye: "I can't stay here for now, but I will always be by your side."
Xiao Suyuan didn't understand what this meant, but he thought about it, took off the black dragon jade pendant from his waist and put it in Cha Jiu's hand.
"I give you this jade pendant. No matter what you look like in the future, as long as I see it, I can recognize you immediately."
The moment Cha Jiu took the jade pendant, the scene in front of him began to distort and change.
A grand feast with singing and dancing.
Cha Jiu was among the crowd of guests, and from a distance he saw Shen Suyuan sitting alone in the bustle.
He sat on one knee at the table, casually and carefree, his fingertips nonchalantly playing with the small wine glass in his hand.
Many noble ladies or officials wanted to approach and chat with her.
But when his bloodshot eyes glanced at them, they were frightened again.
