The houses on the outskirts of South City are ordinary in appearance and look like a commonplace.
A middle-aged man was running towards the house, panting. His eye sockets were sunken, dark circles were formed under his eyes, and he was skin and bones.
As soon as he entered the house, he shouted in fear: "Fang Ruoshui, those cops are coming to arrest me!"
Then, a young woman came out pushing a wheelchair.
She was probably about twenty-five or twenty-six years old, with a pretty face and gentle temperament. Even the simple room was brightened by her.
But her words were not so gentle.
She glared at the middle-aged man coldly: "Didn't I tell you not to look for me at this time? If you don't want to die, get as far away from me as possible!"
Then, she lowered her eyes, picked up the urn in her hand, and her eyebrows became gentle, as if she was talking to someone: "Sister, he is too noisy, and I don't want to scold him.
What? You said you can't curse?
Okay, I won't curse anymore, Ruoshui will always be your good baby…”
Seeing this, the middle-aged man took two steps back in fear.
Fang Ruoshui looks weak and harmless, physically disabled, and even in need of care, but in reality, she is as ferocious as a beast.
He almost forgot that every noon and evening, when the extreme yin and extreme yang changed, Fang Ruoshui would hold an urn and mutter to herself, as if trying to wake up the person inside.
Last time, he disturbed her for unknown reasons, so she put a looped rope inside the wall of the house where he lived - a symbol of a hung ghost.
That night, he got up involuntarily, picked up the rope, and hung himself on the chandelier. If the chandelier could not bear the weight, he would have been strangled to death.
Obviously, they both belonged to Youdu and were sent out to carry out the mission in Nancheng. They should have been close partners. But the other party attacked him without any scruples.
How crazy is this?
But the other party belongs to the middle level of Youdu and is likely to be promoted to the upper level in the future, which is completely different from him who is at the bottom level.
The middle-aged man was very angry, but he didn't dare to show it in front of Fang Ruoshui.
He thought of the policemen who were chasing him, and a deep fear emerged in his heart. He had done many bad things to make money over the years, such as buying the life of a terminally ill boss, and borrowing luck for a little star from a friend who had the same horoscope as her.
Those who do evil will eventually perish. He was targeted by the police and ran around like a rat in a gutter. He had no choice but to join Youdu and seek protection from Youdu.
With the help of Youdu, he hid very well, but for some reason, his address was suddenly discovered and his true identity was put on the wanted list of the Special Management Bureau.
If you are caught, even if you are not sentenced to death, you will probably have to spend the rest of your life in prison.
The middle-aged man gritted his teeth, mustered up his courage, and looked at Fang Ruoshui: "Miss Fang, I am also from Youdu, and I am your companion on this mission. You must help me."
As soon as he finished speaking, a cold look came towards him. Fang Ruoshui was disturbed, and her gentle mask was torn apart: "Who do you think you are? If I kill you today, they won't hold me accountable. What does it have to do with me whether you live or die?"
The middle-aged man was shocked when he heard this. He lost all his strength. He seemed to have thought of something and spoke of his own value with hope: "Miss Fang, this mission is difficult. Without my help, it will be difficult for you to complete this mission with your limited mobility."
Since friendship can't impress Fang Ruoshui, then let's use benefits.
The middle-aged man with the hooked nose looked at Fang Ruoshui's legs vaguely. Her legs were covered by the blanket, weak and twisted into a strange shape.
This is the consequence of learning Lu Ban's book.
The middle-aged man thought that if he appealed to Fang Ruoshui's emotions and reason, and explained the importance of the matter, Fang Ruoshui would definitely help him.
However, what he didn't expect was that when Fang Ruoshui saw him looking at her mutilated leg, she flew into a rage, her entire body as angry as boiling water.
When the middle-aged man saw her expression, he felt a strong fear in his heart and always felt that something bad was going to happen.
Under his horrified eyes, Fang Ruoshui took out a straw man from her pocket.
This doll is made of straw, with facial features painted on it and its name and birth date written on its body.
When he saw the straw man's appearance clearly, the middle-aged man's eyes were bloodshot and anger gushed out. He instantly forgot his fear of the other party Ruoshui and rushed forward like an arrow.
There was only one thought left in my mind.
Hurry up and grab that straw man!
However, Fang Ruoshui reacted faster than him. She took out a sharp metal nail and stabbed it into the straw man's leg.
“Ahhhhhh!”
A heart-wrenching scream was heard.
The middle-aged man's right leg seemed to be stabbed by something. His feet went soft, his body lost balance, and he fell down with a bang. Due to inertia, he knelt down next to Fang Ruoshui's wheelchair.
Although his right leg was still there, he had no feeling at all, as if it was not even on his body.
A faint smile appeared on Fang Ruoshui's face. She raised her hand and pulled out the nail from the straw man's right leg. She moved it slightly and pretended to place it on the straw man's left leg.
"No!" The middle-aged man shouted in fear and begged for mercy from Fang Ruoshui: "Miss Fang, I was wrong. I shouldn't have laughed at your legs!"
He was careless. He shouldn't have mocked the disabilities of disabled people.
The moment he saw the straw man, he knew it was the legendary eight-character witchcraft. Write the name and birth date on the straw man and then cast a spell on it.
The eyes of the straw man will be affected by the curse. If the caster is weak, the cursed person will be blind for a period of time. If the caster is strong, the cursed person will be blinded immediately.
Fang Ruoshui's ability should certainly not be underestimated. This time, his legs might be crippled.
Fortunately, after hearing his plea for mercy, Fang Ruoshui stopped what she was doing, as if she didn't intend to continue.
The middle-aged man lowered his eyes, feeling relieved but also deeply resentful.
He was not a good person to begin with, but a vicious one. Fang Ruoshui actually dared to treat him like this. She was already on his death list in his mind. He had to torture her to the point where she wanted to be neither alive nor dead, only then could he vent his hatred.
Fang Ruoshui has strong witchcraft skills, but she is weak and has to sit in a wheelchair, which makes it very inconvenient for her to move. As long as you take advantage of her unpreparedness and attack her by surprise, she will not be able to use any witchcraft.
Because the money for buying his life and the luck-borrowing talisman were all broken, he suffered extremely serious backlash and his internal organs were seriously injured.
Fang Ruoshui was unwilling to help him. It was only a matter of time before he was caught by the police. So, let them die together!
The middle-aged man with the hooked nose had a gleam in his eyes, and he saw Fang Ruoshui put down the straw man and picked up the urn that she treasured. Her eyes were glued to the urn, as if she was treating someone very close to her.
The opportunity has come!
He suddenly jumped up and swung his fist towards Fang Ruoshui's head. If Fang Ruoshui was hit, she would either die or faint.
However, Fang Ruoshui's reaction was faster than his. With lightning speed, she kicked the middle-aged man's heart with her sharp shoe, and the blanket on his knees fell to the ground.
The middle-aged man was kicked and fell to the ground with stars in his eyes. He felt a piercing pain in his heart. The scene just now flashed through his brain automatically, and deep horror flashed in his eyes.
Fang Ruoshui's twisted and broken leg...was not broken!
Why? Didn't she learn Lu Ban's book?
But he didn't have time to think about it. His head tilted and he fainted.
Fang Ruoshui leisurely retracted her foot, and when she looked at the middle-aged man, she felt a little disgusted: "Zhu Xiu is a fool, why do you stuff all the dirty and rotten things into my hands?"
Then he raised the urn that was protected by his elbow again and pressed his warm cheek against it.
Her fair skin pressed against the wooden urn, and a slight chill reached her face, causing a sickly blush to appear on her face, and she murmured.
"Sister, finally no one will disturb us now."
"The mission in South City is a bit complicated. A special person showed up. My talisman was found by her before it was buried for 49 days. As a result, the plan had to be postponed until the Ghost Festival. I will be careful now."
"…soon, we'll be together forever."
................................................................................. ....
To express their gratitude, Liang Jing and her agent wanted to treat An Rugu to a meal and then take her around the capital.
But An Rugu was not interested, so she declined politely and flew back to South City that day.
On the plane, she stared at the clouds outside the window, lost in thought. The capital was full of royal aura, spiritual energy, and excellent feng shui, but for some reason, she felt a little weird.
When the plane landed, she collected her thoughts.
During this period, the fortune-telling fees and gifts she received from live broadcasts totaled more than one million, plus the more than one million transferred to her by Liang Jing from the exorcism of bus No. 18.
She already has more than five million on hand.
After leaving the airport, she did not rush back to Tangchi Village immediately, but took a taxi to the Health and Welfare Institute in Nancheng.
This welfare house is located in a remote area with average conditions. When she was in college, the club arranged a volunteer activity at this welfare house.
The director of the welfare home still remembered her. When he saw her, his eyes lit up and he said enthusiastically, "Xiao An, long time no see. You have graduated from college, right? That's great. Did you come to see me this time?
Facing the kind-hearted dean, An Rugu smiled faintly: "That's right."
The director was a little emotional when he heard this. When others first saw An Rugu, they would easily think that she was a fairy who had never touched women and was very distant from everyone. Before, when she came to the welfare home to participate in volunteer activities, she also felt that the other party was not used to it, but she didn't expect that she was very diligent and quick.
More importantly, she has a very kind heart.
You really shouldn't judge a person's character based on appearance alone.
Then, the dean said enthusiastically: "Those children missed you so much that they asked when you would come back after you left."
An Rugu: "I came here mainly to donate some money."
Dean: “!!!”
The dean's eyes widened. "It's not easy for you to make money right after graduation. Auntie knows you have a good heart, but donate when you have the ability in the future. Do what you can."
She once curiously asked about An Rugu's family situation and knew that she was not from a wealthy family.
However, An Rugu shook her head gently: "It's okay, I made some money, I will donate one million to you. I remember there are a few children with congenital deficiencies, you can use this money to take them to the hospital for a good check-up."
Dean: “!!!”
Under the shocked gaze of the director, An Rugu looked at the children in the welfare home, and then transferred a full one million yuan to the welfare home in the name of donation.
The children in the welfare home are young and have no idea what one million is. They just happily circle around the beautiful sister in their hearts.
"Sister, this lollipop is delicious, do you want to eat it?"
"You haven't come to see us for a long time. I missed you so much."
An Rugu touched the faces of these children, and the corners of her mouth rose: "I will come when I have the chance in the future."
The dean looked at An Rugu with shock in his eyes - this child is really promising!
Then, An Rugu went to nursing homes and other places and donated a lot of money. Five million was reduced to half a million in an instant. Most people might find it difficult to accept it, but An Rugu didn't care.
She has no pursuit for luxury cars, mansions, and other food, clothing, and other necessities. Money is just an external thing to her. Instead of letting it depreciate, it is better to do good deeds and resist the backlash of leaking the secret.
....................................................
Tangchi Village
An Rugu had just returned to Izumo Temple when the dormitory WeChat group on her phone was flooded with messages from Yang Yang.
[Yang Yang: I saw a trending search saying that a star raised a ghost to harm people, and many fans' houses collapsed. I thought it was very funny and wanted to see the fun, but when I clicked on it, it turned out that it was my house that collapsed. How could Zhu Tingting raise a ghost to harm people, and even harm her good friend Liang Jing! I can't accept it...]
[Yang Yang: @An Rugu, my good master, please tell me that Zhu Tingting did not raise a ghost, nor did she harm her friends T﹏T. ]
[Zhang Xia: I can tell at a glance that you didn’t watch the video carefully. An Rugu was also there at the time. I recognized it as soon as I heard the voice.]
[Yang Yang: !!! Is this true? An Rugu met Zhu Tingting? Then my good master must know the situation. Tell me that Tingting didn't harm anyone! ]
【Zhang Xia: You should be mentally prepared.】
An Rugu: “…”
An Rugu was a little curious, so she opened Weibo and found that many people were discussing Zhu Tingting.
Many of Zhu Tingting’s fans were very angry when they saw someone slandering her and decided to fight back.
However, when they saw the live video footage of the day of the accident, some were speechless.
In the live broadcast, Zhu Tingting, who was dressed exquisitely, was yelling like a madman, making people think that someone had quarreled with her and made her so angry.
But then, Zhu Tingting in the video said even more weird words - "amulet", "master", "we will all die".
Later, Liang Jing asked An Rugu about the backlash. An Rugu's voice was very low, but it was all recorded.
A technician restored and amplified An Rugu's voice: "Don't have the intention to harm others. Her luck is not strong, but she stole the luck of others. Everything she once enjoyed must be paid back double. Not only that, but it also severely damaged her virtue. Her 'blessings' are still to come."
An Rugu's voice was very soft, like the breeze in the mountains, refreshing, but the amount of information contained in it was terrifying when one thought about it carefully.
Zhu Tingting has always been lazy but still became popular. It turns out that she stole other people’s luck?
Moreover, this matter is detrimental to one’s virtue. Will Zhu Tingting suffer retribution?
The fans were just about to scold An Rugu for her outrageous remarks, but they saw Zhu Tingting suddenly fall to the ground. Her fair skin suddenly turned pale, and she was barely able to breathe, and she kept twitching, looking as if she had been attacked back.
They were suddenly speechless.
Among the top dozens of hot searches, Zhu Tingting almost dominated the list. Several hot searches also included An Rugu.
# Zhu Tingting raised a ghost to harm Liang Jing, but was solved by a fortune teller #
#Popular star suspected of mental disorder#
#Zhu Tingting betrays her friend#
#Zhu Tingting suspected of taking drugs#
Many passers-by thought that Zhu Tingting was raising a ghost, or was taking drugs, or had a mental illness.
An Rugu closed her Weibo account and sent a message in the university dormitory group: [She herself is not a very lucky person, but she has very good luck. All this luck was stolen from her friends.]
[Yang Yang: Wow, I thought she was really sincere and kind, but I’m disappointed again.]
【Jiang Mianmian: If the old doesn’t go, the new won’t come. The next one will be better behaved.】
【Zhang Xia: Speaking of which, Yang Yang’s house has collapsed too many times. First it was Fang Yuan, then it was Zhu Tingting. Tell me who you are a fan of, I will never be a fan of him.】
[Yang Yang: Are you polite? ? ? ?]
[Yang Yang: Speaking of which, this borrowing luck thing is so scary. I’ve also had Mercury retrograde recently. Did someone borrow my luck?]
【Zhang Xia: Add one.】
An Rugu saw these messages and comforted them: [For borrowing luck to exchange for life, the right time, right place, and right people are all essential. First, you need an expert who can do this. Second, the borrower and the borrowed person often have the same four pillars and eight characters, that is, they were born on the same year, month, day, and time. Many people will never meet someone with the same eight characters as themselves in their lifetime, so there is no need to worry too much.]
[Yang Yang: Then I feel relieved. In my entire life, I have never met anyone who has the same birthday as me, let alone the same time.]
【Zhang Xia: By the way, this reminds me of twins. Many twins are born on the same day of the same month of the same year. Can they exchange their lives?】
An Rugu saw this message, thought about it, and replied: [This possibility does exist. ]
....................................................
The people in the dormitory group were busy discussing Zhu Tingting's matter. At this time, An Rugu's cell phone suddenly rang.
She opened it and saw that it was Lin Weiyu calling, so she answered it immediately.
Lin Weiyu's beaming voice came from the microphone: "Ms. An, the information you provided us is so accurate. Our branch has captured that evil cultivator."
When An Rugu saw the criminal being caught, a trace of joy flashed in his clear eyes: "Well, that's good."
Lin Weiyu talked about the criminal like a bamboo tube pouring beans: "This person was on our list before. We tried to catch him several times, but he ran away. Later, he joined Youdu and was very difficult to catch. Fortunately, you provided the location and appearance information. We immediately checked the surveillance and finally locked him.
We found him in a private house. Strangely, he had fainted and his right leg seemed to be disabled.
His magic was broken, causing severe backlash, and he will definitely die of old age in prison."
"Fainted?" An Rugu asked curiously.
Because An Rugu was the hero in catching the criminal, Lin Weiyu answered truthfully, her voice a little solemn: "He seemed to have had a fight with someone and was knocked unconscious. To be honest, we found Fang Ruoshui's fingerprints at the scene. We suspect that these two people are accomplices. For some reason, they had a disagreement and fought.
Fang Ruoshui has disappeared. This evil cultivator is an abandoned child. I am dying of laughter. "
Hearing the name Fang Ruoshui again, An Rugu was thoughtful: "Why are they still active in South City? What do they want to do here?"
Lin Weiyu on the other end shook her head: "We also want to know what happened, but we can only deal with it as it comes."
"By the way, I watched your live broadcast last time. Your fortune-telling skills are really amazing. It's not an exaggeration to call you the King of Nancheng." Lin Weiyu's tone was full of admiration.
As the name suggests, a physiognomist is a person who is very good at physiognomy. Many people, such as Yuan Tiangang and Zhuge Liang, are called physiognomists. There are also some female physiognomists, such as Xu Fu, who once predicted that Liu Bang would achieve great things.
An Rugu said modestly: "It's just a trivial skill."
Lin Weiyu was amazed in her heart. If this was just a trivial skill, then there was no great skill in the world.
She didn't ask An Rugu how he learned it. After all, in the world of metaphysics, knowledge is often monopolized by families and is the most confidential of secrets. Repeatedly asking for someone's secret may not make them willing to tell you, and it is easy to offend them.
In their eyes, Master An Rugu was full of mysteries, and the fog surrounding him was getting deeper and deeper.
They didn't think of suppressing them, but instead thought they could make friends with them.
Lin Weiyu seemed to have thought of something and said, "Oh, by the way, you cracked his method of buying his life and borrowing his luck, and also provided clues. The reward will be paid out soon."
An Rugu hummed, thinking of the rumors that were rampant on the Internet, and asked curiously: "Zhu Tingting's affairs have been exposed, and many people are speculating that she has a ghost. What are you going to do?"
Lin Weiyu thought of her superiors' arrangement and said, "Well... Zhu Tingting will be sentenced for using magic to harm people. As for the things on the Internet, we talked to Zhu Tingting and she said that she explained it as mental disorder."
An Rugu thought about it and felt that it was understandable. Zhu Tingting certainly didn't want to be known as someone who hurt others, so it would be better to attribute it to mental problems, which would give her the possibility of a comeback.
For the Special Management Bureau, this incident caused such a big stir and panic that the best explanation was mental disorder, which was a win-win situation.
The next day, An Rugu checked her phone and found that Zhu Tingting said on Weibo that she was mentally ill and needed to recuperate and would temporarily quit the entertainment industry.
Some people believed she was mentally ill and felt sorry for her, while others thought she was raising a ghost and did not believe her story at all.
There was a huge quarrel on Weibo, with people from all walks of life fighting each other.
But no one knows that Zhu Tingting herself is now in prison, singing Tears Behind Bars.
An Rugu calculated that Zhu Tingting's career luck had hit rock bottom, even worse than before, and there was no possibility of her making a comeback.
................................................................................. .....................
Time flies, and it is the Ghost Festival on the 15th day of the seventh lunar month. The Ghost Festival is the Ghost Festival. On this day, the gates of hell are wide open, and ghosts appear. Ghosts from the underworld will come to the human world to wander around and accept people's sacrifices.
That day, An Rugu carried some things and came to the small river near Izumo Temple.
Many people burn paper for their deceased relatives and friends as well as wandering ghosts on the road during the Ghost Festival. Burning paper in the mountains and forests can easily cause fires, but there will be no such trouble if you burn paper by the river.
She took out yellow paper from her bag, bent down, took out a pink banknote from her pocket, pressed the banknote on the yellow paper, picked it up, and put it back down...
Repeat this process many times, using the banknote to press the entire surface of the yellow paper. This is called printing money, and the printed paper is money that can be spent on the deceased.
She printed out stack after stack, one by one, her movements careful and graceful.
Then, she placed a stack of yellow paper on the ground, stretched out her right hand and drew circles on it, chanting her master's name in her heart while drawing circles.
If you don't draw a circle, the money will be taken away by ghosts and will not be received by your master.
Then, use a lighter to light the yellow paper. The yellow flame rises from the edge and gradually licks the yellow paper. The burned area gradually turns black.
Stacks of yellow paper were burned to ashes by the yellow flames, scattered on the ground and turned into ashes.
After the ashes were cleaned up, An Rugu looked towards the distance of the river, with a trace of melancholy in his eyes.
Things are different and people have changed, it's nothing more than this.
She hopes the master can receive her money and be reborn into a good family in the next life.
Oh, that's not right. I heard that it takes hundreds of years to be reincarnated in the underworld. I hope Master can get there sooner rather than later.
At this moment, her cell phone suddenly rang. She opened it and saw that it was a call from Lin Weiyu.
No one comes to see me for no reason. Why did she suddenly come to see me?
An Rugu picked up the phone curiously, and an anxious voice came from the receiver: "Miss An, something big has happened!"
An Rugu's eyes shone: "What's going on?"
"The talisman of the Xuanwu Tower in South City was stolen!"
The theory of Yin-Yang and the Five Elements is the crystallization of ancient philosophical thought, which gave rise to the Feng Shui culture. From the royal family to the common people, everyone believes in Feng Shui. To put it simply, a town object is something that guards the house.
Some people use Qilin, Bagua mirrors, Pixiu and other items as talismans in buildings to protect their homes.
Of course, cities also have talismans. The larger the city, the more advanced the talismans are, and they are related to the feng shui and fortune of the city.
It is said that Zhu Di invested a huge amount of money in the imperial city and summoned famous feng shui masters to design the Forbidden City.
All the people in the Xuanmen sect know that the talisman of South City is in the Xuanwu Tower of South City, but in order to keep it secret, no one knows the specific location of the talisman in the Xuanwu Tower.
An Rugu thought to herself that something was wrong: "Who stole it?"
"Fang Ruoshui stole it." Lin Weiyu sighed and gritted her teeth, "No wonder she has been active in South City. It turns out her target is the Xuanwu Tower!"
An Rugu lowered her eyes. No wonder she always felt that Fang Ruoshui was a bit strange. She was obviously very capable and her character was said to be very evil, but she only made the people in Changjiu Building fall into nightmares. This was not like her style. It felt like she was hiding something behind it.
So that's how it is...
She thought for a moment and said, "Lu Ban's magic is all about studying talismans. It's not surprising that she could find the talisman of the Xuanwu Tower. I suddenly figured out something."
"What is it?"
An Rugu looked up at the clear sky, but what she said shocked Lin Weiyu: "If there is a problem with the Feng Shui of South City, the talisman will be the first to react. She buried the talisman under the Changjiu Building last time. I'm afraid she wanted to use the artificial evil spirit to hold you back and sense the location of the talisman. Can you not sense the location of the talisman now?"
Lin Weiyu glanced at the superior next to her and nodded: "That's right, the aura of the talisman is completely obscured, and no aura can be seen at all."
An Rugu sighed faintly from the other end of the phone: "Today is the Ghost Festival. The gates of hell are wide open, and ghost spirits are everywhere. The natural evil spirit has temporarily turned South City into a ghost town, and the aura of the town has been obscured by the aura of the ghost town."
Lin Weiyu clenched her teeth when she heard this. It was actually like this, too cunning!
After chatting with the other party for a few words, An Rugu hung up the phone.
She was not the only one who was informed, and other people were also informed of this matter. After all, the town object was related to the feng shui of a city, and all the people in the Xuanmen of the South City took action.
There is even a bounty on the books now, offering a million dollars for the recovery of the stolen talisman.
An Rugu wanted to find the talisman, but she was not omnipotent. The last time she found the evil cultivator, it was because the other party left a contract, allowing her to track him.
Fang Ruoshui ran so fast that there was no trace left, leaving her completely clueless.
.................................................................
While thinking about how to solve the problem, she returned to Izumo Temple.
As soon as he entered the gate of Izumo Temple, Shang Yue came up to him with two people.
The man had a big belly and was probably in his fifties. He was strong and healthy, but he looked worried and kept looking back as if he was afraid of something.
When he saw An Rugu, he immediately complained: "You are the master, right? I have encountered a strange thing, can you help me?"
"What's wrong?"
An Rugu's eyes fell on him and she actually saw a hint of ghostliness, which made her frown slightly.
The man trembled with fear when he thought of his previous experience: "I encountered a ghost wedding."
