Lan Xiaoyuan brought Qin Yuesheng to an uninhabited room. Unlike the last one, this one was closer to the bamboo forest.
"Mr. Qin, do you like it? If not, I can take you to see the next one." Lan Xiaoyuan asked.
"No need to go to so much trouble, this is the one I'll take." Qin Yuesheng looked around and said, "Isn't your sister Azhu in Yixin Xiaoju?"
"Yes, my sister is out."
"Why is she out again? I feel like she's never in Yixin House every time I come here. It seems like it's easy for her to be a hands-off boss." Qin Yuesheng said casually.
Lan Xiaoyuan covered her mouth and laughed, "My sister is very busy. She opened Yixin Xiaoju just to have a place to live in Yangzhou Prefecture."
Qin Yuesheng nodded and asked no more questions.
Everyone in the world has their own secrets. If others don’t tell you, you shouldn’t ask. This is an unwritten rule.
…
Somewhere in Yangzhou Prefecture.
A pale-faced child sat on the bed with his eyes closed. There was no movement in his throat, and his limbs were very soft, without any straightness.
It looked like... a dead person.
Behind him sat a woman in white. It was this woman who supported the child's back with both hands, preventing him from falling on the bed.
Next to them, the child's grandmother and parents stood side by side at the door, blocking the door, staring at the bed with very nervous expressions, as if they were afraid of something.
The three men were all dressed in black and wore white paper hats with the words "Living People Can Pass" written on them.
If Qin Yue was born here, he would be surprised to find that the woman in white is actually Zhu Zhu, the absentee owner of Yi Xin Xiao Ju.
Zhu Zhu reached out and inserted black needles as thin as hair into the child's back, and at the same time inserted the talisman paper that had been folded earlier by the leg onto the black needles.
As more and more black needles and talisman papers appeared, black blood suddenly and slowly seeped out of the child's seven orifices, and the whole room suddenly became extremely foul-smelling.
"They're coming soon. You must guard the door well. No matter what you see, you must not move even a step." Zhu Zhu reminded.
"Yes, girl, we understand."
Zhu Zhu picked up a black needle with her two fingers and immediately inserted it into the child's crown.
Violent!
Suddenly, the dead child opened his eyes and was about to stand up and jump away.
Zhu Zhu had anticipated this kind of thing, so she picked up three black needles and threw them out. The black needles accurately pierced the child's instep, and wisps of black smoke floated out from the needle holes. The child suddenly staggered and fell on the bed.
"You bold evil spirit, get out of here quickly." Zhu Zhu shouted softly, and then she flicked her fingers, and all the talismans on the child's back began to combust.
Surprisingly, the flames were not the usual red-orange, but light blue.
"Ah!!!" The child suddenly let out a scream of surprise. The voice was hoarse and rough, and it was obviously not the voice of a child.
Under the burning flames, the child rolled on the bed and fell under the bed. Zhu Zhu swung the black needles and pierced the child's palms, neck, and legs one by one, making him unable to move.
Suddenly, a man with disheveled hair and a straw raincoat crawled out of the child's body, covered in blue flames, and ran towards the door.
Seeing such a strange sight, ordinary people would naturally feel terrified, but fortunately Zhu Zhu had given a warning, so the child's family just closed their eyes and stood there motionless, ignoring everything else.
The moment the man in the straw raincoat bumped into the three of them, he was bounced back with great force. Zhu Zhu took the opportunity to string all the talismans with black needles and threw them out.
Swish, swish, swish!
All the black needles pierced through the body of the man in the straw raincoat, but the talisman burst out with blue flames, wrapping the man up layer by layer.
In just a few breaths, the man in the straw raincoat disappeared from the spot, leaving only an irregularly shaped white bead.
"Auntie, girl, can my son be saved?" The child's mother couldn't help but open her eyes and asked.
"Yeah." Zhu Zhu got out of bed and walked over to pick up the white bead. She took the bead to the blue fire to roast it. As a black gas floated out of the bead, she stuffed the bead directly into the child's mouth.
As the black needles were pulled out one by one, the blue flame on the talisman began to go out.
"Don't let the child go to such unclean places in the future. If I hadn't arrived in time this time, there would be no way to save him." Zhu Zhu picked up the child, put him back on the bed and said.
After taking the beads, the child's originally pale face gradually began to regain its color, and it seemed that he was no longer in danger.
"Thank you, young lady. Thank you, young lady. I kowtow to you." The child's grandmother immediately knelt on the ground and pretended to kowtow to Zhu Zhu.
Zhu Zhu did not reach out to stop it, but accepted it with extraordinary calmness.
"Feed him a few more bowls of hot soup, he should wake up soon." Zhu Zhu took back all the black needles, said goodbye to the family, and left.
"I'm running low on spiritual paper these days. Let's go buy some more over there." Zhu Zhu suddenly muttered to herself while walking on the street, then turned in another direction and walked towards another intersection.
Lao Zhou's Vinegar Shop is a very inconspicuous shop in Yangzhou Prefecture. If it weren't for the people living nearby, basically no one would come here to buy vinegar.
Wu Fan sat in the store, playing with a rattle out of boredom, but his eyes kept looking outside the store, observing whether anyone wanted to come in.
This place was the base set up by the Seven Stars Guard in Yangzhou Prefecture. Following Yuwen Sanzui's orders, he had been waiting here for many days, hoping that some members of the Seven Stars Guard would show up.
