Chapter 132 Monster
The red string under the corridor was pulled by something, and the copper bells rang together. The sound was so sharp and piercing that it startled the birds perched under the eaves, which fluttered their wings and fled in all directions.
Wen Zhu drew her sword and wanted to cut the red ropes, but Jiang Fei glanced at her and told her to be patient.
Jiang Fei took a few steps forward, touched the talisman paper stuck on the corridor pillar, tore off a piece and threw it away lightly, "Who is playing tricks? If you don't come out, I will tear this damn place apart!"
The door of the main house suddenly opened to both sides, and two rows of Taoist priests in Taoist robes came out one after another and scattered in the corridor. The oldest one was only about twenty years old.
The last person to step out of the door was an old Taoist priest in a gray robe and white hair, holding a peach wood sword in his hand and pointing it at Jiang Fei.
"This woman's forehead is black, and she's surrounded by yin energy. She must be possessed by an evil spirit!" The old Taoist priest said hoarsely, "If we don't exorcise her in time, I'm afraid it will bring disaster to the entire mansion! Madam, do you want to capture this evil spirit now?"
"Collect! Collect her quickly!"
Jiang Fei looked in the direction of the sound and saw Yao and two maids hiding behind the window of the side room.
Jiang Fei suddenly staggered, her body swayed slightly, she held her forehead with her fingers, and showed a look of pain.
"Miss!" Wen Zhu exclaimed and hurried forward to support her.
The old Taoist priest was overjoyed when he saw this. He pointed his peach wood sword forward and said, "Look! The evildoer is about to reveal himself!"
The Taoists in the corridor suddenly became agitated. Some of them had already taken out ropes, and some were shaking copper bells, making a clanging sound.
Yao also leaned halfway out from behind the window, her eyes gleaming with excitement, "Is this so fast?"
She felt something was wrong. Was it too easy?
Just as everyone rushed forward, Jiang Fei suddenly stood up straight, the pain in his eyes disappeared, and he burst into laughter.
"That's what you wanted to see, right?" She laughed so hard she almost collapsed, brushing off her sleeves. "It's a shame it's useless. Now, do you think I'm a demon?"
The old Taoist's face changed drastically. "No, impossible... This evildoer is too powerful. We must use a large formation to subdue him! Set up the formation!"
At the old Taoist priest's command, all the Taoist priests quickly changed their positions.
"Miss!" Wen Zhu was so anxious that he wanted to draw his sword again.
Jiang Fei raised her hand to stop him, "Don't move."
A hint of interest flashed in her eyes, "I'd like to see what this 'grand formation' is all about."
Seeing Jiang Fei being so arrogant, the old Taoist sneered, "What a rampant evildoer!"
He bit his fingertip and quickly drew a blood rune on the peach wood sword. "The sky is clear and the earth is bright, the sun and the moon shine together, hurry and obey the command!"
It was the first time that Jiang Fei saw a Taoist priest cast a spell. She didn't know whether he was just pretending or if it would really work when encountering evil spirits.
She whispered to Wen Zhu, "I'll go in alone."
"No!" Wen Zhu immediately objected, "What if——"
"No one can ever knock on me." Jiang Fei whispered, "They don't dare to do anything to me. If I die suddenly, the one who fears the most is the Yao family. I knocked twice for safety. If I only knocked once or didn't knock for half a cup of tea, you barged in."
Wen Zhu gritted his teeth and nodded.
The crowd approached quickly, pointing the peach wood sword at Jiang Fei, forcing her to walk step by step towards the main room.
As soon as I entered, the door of the main room slammed shut again.
Wen Zhu subconsciously wanted to draw his sword, but he suppressed the urge.
"Miss Wenzhu." Seeing Jiang Rufei trapped, Yao ran out of the side room. "Miss Wenzhu, don't be fooled by her. The master said that Jiang Rufei is no longer my daughter. We must force the evil spirit out of her. Maybe the prince has also been bewitched by that evil spirit!"
Wen Zhu remembered what Jiang Fei said about turning the tables on them, and deliberately asked, "Really? What kind of formation do you have set up inside?"
Jiang Fei didn't understand the formation either, so after entering the room, she immediately covered her mouth and nose and looked around.
There was some dark red liquid on the wall that had not yet completely solidified, and blood beads were slowly dripping down. The smell was very pungent. Based on her years of experience reading novels, she thought it should be something like black dog blood.
There were also many talismans pasted on the windows, almost all of them that could be used, as if she was a thousand-year-old demon with profound Taoist skills.
She walked to the bed and knocked on the window twice.
The Taoist priests waiting outside pricked up their ears immediately, "There's movement! The evildoer is trapped in the formation."
Wen Zhu heaved a sigh of relief and began to negotiate with Yao, "Then the evil spirit in Miss Jiang's body has been removed, and she will be able to return to normal?"
"That's right." Yao said seriously, "She wasn't like this before. It was only in April this year when she woke up that her personality changed drastically. It seems that she was possessed by an evil spirit."
At this moment, the "dirty thing" Jiang Fei was sitting in the house planning. He rummaged through his body and took out a bottle of medicine from his purse. His eyes rolled and he immediately came up with a plan.
Wen Zhu was listening to Yao's nonsense when he suddenly heard a shrill scream from inside the house: "Ah——"
Wen Zhu's face changed drastically. Just as she was about to rush in, she heard two soft "thump" sounds at the end of the scream. She quickly stopped again.
Yao grabbed her and said excitedly, "Don't worry! This is the evil spirit being forced out of the body!"
Inside the house, Jiang Fei was sitting leisurely on a chair, continuing to scream in pain while weaving a rope with the torn yellow cloth.
Yao was listening to the screams from outside, and the more she listened, the more horrified she became. She couldn't help but shout, "Master, this person has truly been possessed. How come she's still so full of energy after being called for so long? Could it be that we can't subdue this evil creature? What if she breaks free from the formation and escapes to start a massacre?"
The Taoist priest was also suspicious. He had never seen anything like this before, so he must be very skilled in Taoism.
"Madam, rest assured. I will definitely take down this evildoer! I won't let her bring disaster to the world again."
Jiang Fei heard the conversation outside, thought for a moment, and suddenly shouted at the top of her lungs.
"Oh my God! My head hurts! I'm going to die! Let me go! Help—"
If Wen Zhu hadn't heard Jiang Fei shouting and knocking on the window, she might have actually believed it.
The old Taoist priest's gray eyes flashed, and he stepped forward with his sword raised, "Everyone, get out of the way!"
All the Taoists retreated in unison.
When the old Taoist priest walked to the door, the screams in the house stopped abruptly.
He carefully pushed open a door. The light in the room was very dim. Layers of talisman paper blocked the light from the window sill, casting patches of mottled light on the ground.
In the middle of the room, a person was lying flat on his back, his hands hanging peacefully by his side.
In order to prevent the evildoer from taking the opportunity to escape, the old Taoist priest closed the door and approached slowly and cautiously.
Seeing that the person on the ground had no reaction, he was delighted and quickly took out the cinnabar and dipped two fingers in it.
As the finger dipped in cinnabar just touched Jiang Fei's eyebrows, the tightly closed eyes suddenly opened, and a strange smile appeared at the corners of her bright red mouth.
