The village chief calmed them down, preventing a more serious outcome.
Otherwise, judging by the villagers' resentful expressions of being deceived, if the village chief hadn't intervened, they would have definitely made that expert end up like an orphan...
The angry villagers were calmed down, but the matter still needed to be resolved.
Since the evil spirits haven't been eliminated, the solution is simple: just find another expert.
After hearing about the deeds of Mud Snail Village, those so-called experts who were only half-baked in the first place dared not come again. After all, the evil spirits in Mud Snail Village were really fierce and had even caused deaths. People without real skills would not dare to take on such a job.
Evil spirits capable of causing death...
They are usually extremely evil.
If you're no match for your opponent and end up getting yourself killed, that's no fun at all.
For a time, Mud Snail Village was in an awkward situation where no one was available. Everyone knew that the evil spirits in this place were very fierce, and life was more important than making money.
The village chief had no choice but to ask each household to contribute more money.
Nobody's coming?
Then add more money!
However, this time the villagers of Niluo Village were smarter. They worked first and then got paid, and they also observed the villagers for a period of time before paying them.
If the evil spirits are not eliminated in the end, then the money definitely cannot be given.
The generous reward did indeed produce a group of brave men, but after hearing the conditions offered by Mud Snail Village, some of them backed down, while others proposed to be paid first before working, only to be refused by the village chief. In the end, only a small group remained.
No……
Even a tiny fraction of them are gone.
There were three people in total, one of whom was Chu Yuying.
At that time, Chu Yuying had just debuted and had no fame in Jiang City at all. So, initially, the people of Niluo Village did not value Chu Yuying much and gave priority to the other two.
The first person was a monk, who failed right from the start. Before the day's rituals were even finished, a mischievous child from the village went swimming in the river and ended up in the deep water, nearly drowning.
If someone hadn't happened to be passing by, this would likely have been the second accidental death in Niluo Village in recent years.
After what happened, the monk was too ashamed to stay any longer. Damn it... the procedure wasn't even finished, and someone almost died. If he continued despite the opposition, the monk was really worried that the angry villagers might roast him on the spot.
I had a feeling that the villagers standing around me were starting to look unfriendly...
The monk shivered, muttered "Amitabha," and left.
The second one was a shaman, who was said to be a medium, and was qualified to exorcise evil spirits. However, perhaps because she had been in the spiritual profession for too long, she had come to believe in the existence of gods. She went to see the drowning child herself, and after learning what had happened from the people around her, she used the excuse of going out for a walk to run away without looking back.
By the time the villagers realized what was happening, the sorceress had already vanished without a trace.
—She took a taxi and ran away.
Now, the villagers of Niluo Village are truly at their wits' end.
There were only three spirit mediums in total. One failed and another ran away. Among the dwarfs, it seems that only Chu Yuying, this young girl, is left.
If not her, who else can we turn to?
So, like forcing a duck onto a shelf, the village chief of Mud Snail Village stepped forward and found Chu Yuying.
The other party was very unhappy that the villagers treated her like leftovers, but she still accepted the order. However, she had one request: Chu Yuying would not perform those rituals in person. She would deal with the evil spirits of Mud Snail Village herself. She was to be given an empty room, which would take about three days. During this time, no one else was allowed to disturb her. They should pretend that she did not exist in the village.
Apart from an empty room and three days, Mud Snail Village didn't need to prepare anything else; Chu Yuying could handle everything herself.
After hearing Chu Yuying's conditions, the village chief of Mud Snail Village felt even more uneasy, because he had never heard of such an exorcism method before...
There are no rituals or procedures; you just need to find an empty room and wait.
I've never heard of that...
What school or sect of thought does this belong to?
The village chief considered himself to have seen a fair share of the world over the years. He had also watched when spiritual masters or enlightened monks performed rituals. The scenes were incredibly grand, with altars set up and worshippers invited. Incense could be burned within a five-mile radius. Just looking at such a spectacle made one feel at ease.
But Chu Yuying...
I've never even heard of this method before!
Is it really reliable?
But there was no other choice. Apart from Chu Yuying, there was no one else in Mud Snail Village. Even if it was a last resort, they had to give it a try.
The village chief immediately agreed to Chu Yuying's conditions, adhering to the principle of "if you doubt someone, don't use them; if you use someone, don't doubt them." The village chief even spoke many good words for Chu Yuying to reassure the villagers.
After all, whether Chu Yuying can make it or not, they only need to wait three days.
This period of time is not long.
Three days passed in a flash. As Chu Yuying pushed open the door and walked out, the village chief looked at her confident smile and the village around her that hadn't changed at all, and asked in confusion, "Have you succeeded?"
Chu Yuying nodded affirmatively and assured the village chief that from now on, there would be no more evil spirits causing trouble in Mud Snail Village.
Furthermore, to please Village Chief Kuan, Chu Yuying immediately gave him her address, saying that if any accidents happened in Mud Snail Village in the future, he could go to her.
As for the reward, Chu Yuying declined it for the time being. After all, according to the conditions proposed by the village chief of Mud Snail Village, they needed to observe for a period of time and give it to her after the village was safe.
However, Chu Yuying still told the village chief that sometimes the villagers' accidents were not entirely due to evil spirits. After all, no one can completely avoid accidents, and no one can do that. After observing for a period of time and confirming that there are no evil spirits in Mud Snail Village, she would give her the money.
The village chief expressed his understanding.
Despite the conditions, Chu Yuying's initiative in bringing this matter to light was still in line with the village chief's wishes.
As Chu Yuying had promised, things did indeed develop as they did afterward. Mud Snail Village became completely peaceful, and no more accidents occurred to the villagers.
Two months have passed, and the village of Niluo remains calm and peaceful.
From then on, the village chief of Mud Snail Village was completely convinced of Chu Yuying's worth, took the initiative to settle the payment, and began to promote Chu Yuying for free without reservation.
Her name spread rapidly from the center of Niluo Village to the surrounding areas, and her reputation grew louder and louder, making her more and more famous.
Over time, he gradually became the Ultimate High School Level Psychic he is today.
Furthermore, since their debut, their success rate in exorcising evil spirits has reached an astonishing 100%.
Getting her to take action means success.
