Chapter 64: Crossing the Clear Road
"So what are you going to do with this thing?"
Seeing that her mood had improved, Chu Tingbai let go of the hand that was comforting her, and stared at the evil spirit in her hand without blinking, his eyes full of murderous intent.
"Speaking of which, wasn't this thing here to bite me? Why is it targeting you again?"
Qing Yanrou, who had calmed down, said in confusion.
The two of them were puzzled, while Qing Yun, who was watching the variety show, slandered in his heart: Why else? Of course, the other person's soul is more attractive.
"Grandmaster, do you have any way to make this evil spirit work for me?"
"Hey, why are you setting up a barrier?"
She was just turning around to seek the advice of her ancestor when she saw that she had set up a barrier in the middle of the master bedroom and asked in confusion.
"When I encounter this kind of thing, I usually kill it directly. There's no other way. Furthermore, it's been nurtured by someone with evil thoughts for nearly a hundred years. The bond with the host is very deep and not easy to remove."
Remove the barrier, Qingyun said slowly.
"If I take it, will the person who raised it be harmed?"
"Yes, everything has a cause and an effect. The evil spirit and the person who feeds it are one and the same to a certain extent. Moreover, this evil spirit has been fed for nearly a hundred years, and it can be said that it has been passed down from generation to generation like a family heirloom."
"Tsk tsk tsk, the Bai family is quite impressive."
Qing Yanrou lowered her eyes and looked at the evil spirit struggling in her hands. Her face was expressionless as she opened her lips slightly and said, "Give me your gourd."
The evil spirit had already regained some consciousness, and upon hearing her words, it struggled even harder in her hands.
He took Qingyun's gourd, removed the stopper, and sucked the evil spirit into the gourd with suction. He put the stopper back on, shook the gourd, and handed it to Qingyun.
At this time, in the old house of the Bai family, Bai Wenzhang, who had been sitting in the study waiting for the evil spirit to come back, suddenly vomited a mouthful of blood.
He clutched the clothes on his chest tightly and opened his mouth to call out, but after a long time, no sound came out. His pupils constricted and he fainted in the chair.
-
Chu Tingbai returned downstairs from Room 117 and took out his cell phone to make a call as soon as he got back to the house.
"Check the Lingshan Bai family. Well, don't be too anxious. Take it one step at a time."
Since she still wants to know more from the Bai family, there is no need to kill the Bai family all at once. In the end, it will still be left to her.
Now let him give the Bai family some appetizers. After all, watching one's things being eaten away bit by bit is more despairing than losing them all at once.
There is nothing more cruel than killing someone and destroying their heart.
The night was as cold as water. Not long after Chu Tingbai lay down, a red and a white figure appeared outside his window again.
Looking from the outside, you can only see one red and one white hanging in the air in the dark night. They look particularly creepy in the silent night. Fortunately, no one can see them.
"Tsk tsk tsk, the Lord is still so considerate."
Gu Ze showed off by taking out a fan, opened it with a snap and fanned himself while shaking his head.
"Didn't you say you couldn't come? If the Lord finds out, you'll be in trouble."
Ziyin frowned and said coldly.
"Alas, the Lord is just an ordinary mortal now, he won't find us. We are going back soon, let's take one last look..."
Before Gu Ze could finish his words, Ziyin took him away.
Chu Tingbai opened his beautiful eyes and looked out the window with a frown. Apart from the occasional whistling of the north wind, there was nothing else.
"Hoohoo, that was a close call."
Gu Ze, who had been brought back to the upper realm by Zi Yin, was breathing heavily, his slender hands with distinct joints tightly holding the fan, and spoke as if he had survived a disaster.
"As expected of you, Lord. Even with a mortal body, your acuity is quite impressive."
Ziyin no longer cared about him and used his magic power to walk towards the palace.
"Hey, you're not waiting for me. Wait until the Lord comes back. I'll have to ask him to help me find a new partner!"
Seeing that he had gone far away, Gu Ze stood up and quickly caught up with him.
......
The next morning, Chu Tingbai bought breakfast and knocked on Qing Yanrou's door. When Xiao Yan saw that it was him holding a bag of food, he couldn't wait to take it and ran to Qing Yanrou to take credit.
"Okay, okay, go and see. You don't have to do it anymore."
She knew that it had seen that it had breakfast, so she wanted to be lazy and continue watching cartoons, so she let it go.
"Grandpa, here are your favorite Xuji Shengjianbao and soy milk."
Chu Tingbai opened the bag, took out the contents and placed them on the table, while greeting the Taoist priest.
It was clear what a clever person the Taoist priest was. Ever since Chu Tingbai entered Yantai Temple, he had always called him Grandpa Qing, but today he suddenly dropped the prefix.
This is not right.
He glanced at his granddaughter who was enjoying the service as if it were her duty. She did not touch the food on the table. He narrowed his eyes slightly, looked back and forth between the two of them, and said quietly:
"Do all disciples serve their masters like this now?"
When Qing Yanrou heard this, she paused while sipping soy milk. Her sparkling peach blossom eyes glanced at the calm Chu Tingbai, then she became inexplicably nervous and asked cautiously:
"Um, Grandpa, what do you think of a mentor-disciple relationship?"
With a "pa" sound, the Taoist priest put the chopsticks that Chu Tingbai had just handed to him on the table, and then stared at Chu Tingbai with a critical look for a long time.
It was so long that Qing Yanrou thought he was about to say something disapproving, but then she saw him pick up the chopsticks again and pick up a pan-fried bun, which was delicious and juicy, leaving a lingering fragrance on his lips and teeth.
"This pan-fried bun is delicious, and you have good taste."
The Taoist priest looked at Chu Tingbai with eyes full of approval and his tone was full of pride.
When Chu Tingbai heard this, the smile on his face widened and he bowed deeply to him.
"thank you."
"Humph, but I must remind you that the girl has just come of age."
He didn't reply and ate his breakfast gloomily. No matter how reluctant he was, he would grow up eventually. At least he had me to look after him this time.
He is not an old scholar. It seems that seniority and other things are just like this now. The most important thing is that the child likes it.
Their relationship was settled here. After that, Chu Tingbai always had a smile on his face and stared at Qing Yanrou from time to time. She blushed at his gaze.
"What's this for?"
Looking at the bank card he handed to her, she was stunned for a moment, not knowing what it meant.
"Hand over the financial power."
Hearing what he meant, she couldn't help but raise her eyebrows, took the card from his hand, and said jokingly:
"Aren't you afraid that I might take all your money?"
"No."
Chu Tingbai stared at her seriously. This was the treasure he had finally found again. How could he let her leave him?
No matter how far he went, he would never let her disappear in front of him again.
Chu Tingbai's possessiveness was about to overflow from his eyes. Afraid of scaring her, he stretched out his slender arms and held her in his arms.
Qing Yanrou felt that something was wrong with him, but seeing that he didn't say anything and just hugged her, she raised her arms and hugged his thin waist.
A touch of warmth.
