The courtyard is just ahead.
The yard is well-maintained, and the flowers and plants are quite beautiful, although some of them sway pitifully in the strong wind.
Ruan Qiao walked ahead, the wind blowing her hair into disarray, which then clung to her face, obscuring her features.
She turned around: "Is it okay to just insert it like this?"
Jiang Si nodded.
"Okay." Ruan Qiao responded very softly, almost inaudibly.
Ruan Qiao inserted the needles slowly, one by one, silently reciting the words Jiang Si had told her to say. She kept it a secret, and no one saw the tears that had dried on her face.
Jiang Si was very decisive and efficient.
After Jiang Si placed the incense sticks, the wind mysteriously stopped.
The incense, which was originally burning slowly, started burning very quickly, and soon burned to the bottom, leaving only a small piece of ash that gently fell to the ground.
No one dared to utter a sound as they watched this scene unfold.
Lu Xingquan, the second uncle of the Lu family, glanced at Jiang Si with a hint of resentment, and finally spoke up: "How could you treat your mother like this?"
Jiang Si chuckled and glanced at him sideways: "What gives you the right to speak to me? As an elder?"
"You!" Lu Xingquan was speechless for a moment before saying, "You have no idea what happened back then!"
Ruan Qiao pulled Lu Xingquan back and shook her head slightly: "Don't say anymore. I was the one who wronged her back then." As she spoke, she looked at Jiang Si with sad eyes.
Jiang Si was too lazy to pay attention to their feigned affection and said in a lukewarm tone, "Are you leaving or not? If you don't leave soon, someone will die."
The two were hurt by these words again.
Lu Bier is currently staying in a top-tier private ward, and various high-end medical instruments are attached to her body to barely keep her alive.
Jiang Si walked over.
Even while unconscious, Lu Bier's brows were furrowed, showing that she was in considerable pain.
Jiang Si gently touched it; if the temperature continued to rise, even if he recovered, he would become an idiot.
Ruan Qiao wanted to go forward but hesitated, and asked anxiously, "How is she?"
“I said I would save you, and I will,” Jiang Si’s lips curled slightly. “What’s your rush?”
Ruan Qiao and Lu Xingquan shut up with his casual words.
The old lady of the Lu family was still unaware of what was going on. Upon hearing this, she frowned and was somewhat dissatisfied with Jiang Si's attitude, but since her granddaughter's life was in Jiang Si's hands, she couldn't say anything.
Lu Bier is possessed by an evil spirit.
This evil spirit died in a fire; it was burned alive after a car accident.
It's pitiful, really. He was abandoned there and left to die without anyone helping him. After he died, he was filled with resentment and never wanted to go to hell, so he secretly escaped to the human world.
His resentment was so great that he was constantly tormented by flames.
Lu Bier was unlucky; she was down on her luck and encountered him, which led to her being possessed. To make matters worse, this person shared the same birth chart as Lu Bier, and having the same birth chart meant their auras were compatible, which is why it was difficult for others to detect.
Jiang Si took out a talisman from her bosom, held it in her palm and flipped it a few times. The talisman spontaneously combusted without wind, and when the ash fell on Lu Bier, it slowly dissipated into her body.
Guan Qingchen and Li Jianshan, who had come to witness the event, clearly heard a very shrill and sharp wail. A blurry figure was pulled out of Lu Bier's body. He wanted to stay, but he couldn't resist Jiang Si's magic power. In the end, the entire ghost was pulled out.
Guan Qingchen and Li Jianshan both swallowed hard.
This was the scariest ghost they had ever seen.
His entire body was torn open and charred black. His eyelids were gone, but his eyes were still staring at Jiang Si. The fire may have also burned his throat and tongue, so he could only make "hoarse" noises.
His resentment remained, and he remained in the same state as when he died.
Old Mrs. Li was adept at reading people's expressions. Seeing Guan Qingchen and Li Jianshan's faces, she knew that things had probably gone well. She asked, "Have you found out the culprit?"
There was a hint of disgust in his eyes.
How dare they harm the Lu family! They'll be punished to the death!
Jiang Si put the evil spirit in her palm and said, "She will be alright."
Ruan Qiao immediately rushed forward, so fast that she knocked Jiang Si back half a step.
Ruan Qiao touched Lu Bi'er's little hand and felt her body temperature drop, which reassured her. "Bi'er, my baby, Mommy is here. You'll be alright."
Lu Xingquan, who was behind him, frowned slightly when he saw this.
Jiang Si didn't care much; she wanted to leave as soon as she had accomplished her mission and not disturb the Lu family's reunion.
Grandma Lu stared intently at Jiang Si's hand. "You took that thing?"
"What else?" Jiang Si didn't have a good impression of the Lu family, especially the old woman. "You keep her, and then wait for her to possess you?"
"Miss Jiang, why speak like that?" Old Madam Lu's expression changed slightly: "This thing has harmed my Lu family deeply; we can't possibly let it go so easily, can we?"
"So what do you want to do?"
"I know that your Taoists can prevent people from ever being reborn. This evil spirit has committed many evil deeds and should be reduced to ashes and never be reborn." The old woman's voice was not loud, but the chill in it made Guan Qingchen and Li Jianshan, two well-informed people, change their expressions.
That old lady is indeed sharp.
Jiang Si then seriously looked up at the old lady.
It's possible that she harbored such deep hatred because of her granddaughter; she simply felt that the Lu family's reputation had been damaged.
How dare a little devil target the Lu family? He's asking for trouble.
"Grandma Lu, I sincerely advise you: when you receive kindness, you must turn back. How can you be sure there's no cause and effect involved?"
"Do you know who he is? He's Cui You, who went on a trip with your precious grandson. Do you remember that car accident?" Jiang Si sighed and shook her head, clicking her tongue in amazement: "That car accident was so tragic. Your grandson was lucky to escape the disaster, but has he forgotten about Cui You, whom he left to die? It's a vicious cycle."
These words caused the old woman's expression to change drastically. "How did you know?"
They covered this up very well, and she even sent her beloved grandson abroad to keep him away from these things in China.
“I can know many things, including your secrets, old lady,” Jiang Si said softly. “I hope you can enjoy wealth and honor in your next life, for thousands of years to come.”
Jiang Si's words sounded like a blessing, but they were full of eeriness and malice, making the old lady so angry that she almost had a heart attack.
Lu Xingquan quickly came over to support his mother, saying, "Fan," but as soon as he uttered the word, Jiang Si gave him a cold look.
“Master Jiang, why make things difficult for an old man? Besides…” Jiang Si dismissed his unfinished words as mere nonsense.
Jiang Si was too lazy to talk to him and turned to leave.
Guan Qingchen hurriedly chased after him, leaving Li Jianshan to clean up the mess.
Li Jianshan cursed Guan Qingchen inwardly for being disloyal, while politely saying, "My master has a rather quick temper, Second Uncle, please don't take it to heart."
Lu Xingquan watched Jiang Si's retreating figure, a hint of something unsettling in his eyes: "Is your master really that powerful?"
