Chapter 417 This is really a slap in the face!
Xi Jingyue's mouth twitched slightly. This development could only be described as unexpected yet reasonable. He sighed and wished he could just give up right there.
Mrs. Xi and the others didn't know the inside story, and looked at Xi Jingyue with some concern: "Jingyue, An An..."
Xi Jingyue looked at them helplessly and said soothingly, "It's okay, she won't let herself suffer any loss."
Du Anrao would indeed not let herself suffer any loss, but she had no interest in disciplining other people's younger generations. After thinking about it, she decided to let these elderly people who were worried about their future generations do it themselves.
It’s not that she can really call the deceased back to the world of the living. This is not in line with the rules of heaven, and she doesn’t have that ability.
But now she is still able to let these people see the resentment of her ancestors.
"Mr. Xi, can you lend me your finger?"
"Lend me... my finger?" Xi Jingyue's face froze slightly, and he almost thought that someone wanted to chop off his fingers to vent his anger, but he still instinctively stretched out his hand.
"Give it to you." Du Anrao grabbed Xi Jingyue's hand, then took out an embroidery needle from his pocket and pricked his finger.
Xi Jingyue: “???” Wait, why would you carry this thing with you? Is this scientific?
It turns out that even more unscientific things are yet to come.
Du Anrao carefully collected the drop of blood from Xi Jingyue's finger into a transparent disposable bowl, poured in some clean water and stirred it, then began to chant a spell.
"The Mysterious Sect of Heaven and Earth follows the laws of nature. The Void Emperor has commanded me to reach the truth. All the gods will gather and blend into my body. It will connect to the nine heavens above and the underworld below. I am your blood relative, so show your true form quickly and leave!"
After Du Anrao finished speaking, he suddenly opened his eyes and sprinkled the light red blood in his hand towards the Xi family's ancestral grave.
Xi Yanqi and the others looked at him with disdain, not disguising their contempt and malice towards Du Anrao: "You are playing tricks."
However, what happened in the next second made everyone change their expression.
The blood that should have fallen to the ground in a parabola, as if guided by something, turned into countless drops of water the moment it left the transparent plastic bowl, and fell onto all the graves in the mountains.
Afterwards, everyone felt a chill all over their bodies. Although it was ten o'clock in the morning, the sun was high in the sky and the sun was shining brightly, they inexplicably felt the biting cold wind and cold limbs.
Many people shivered on the spot and instinctively wanted to hug themselves with their arms to keep warm.
Before they could think about it, a cry of surprise successfully attracted everyone's attention.
"Smoke, black smoke, look over there, there is real smoke, what she said is actually true!"
What?!
Everyone in the Xi family subconsciously turned their heads and looked in the direction of the sound, and discovered that the grave mound, which was bathed in sunlight not long ago, was now covered with black air, just as Duanrao had just said.
Especially the grave of the ancestor of the young man who was specifically mentioned by Du Anrao and had had illegal transactions with Jia Yunxiao. The black smoke was so dark that it covered the sun and directly blocked the grave. From a distance, it looked like a mosaic.
Du Anrao naturally also noticed the strangeness of this grave. After a closer look, he discovered that this family not only had a son who was an outlaw, but also a daughter who was an outlaw. The parents were not good people either. Like parents, like children. When he returned, he would find an opportunity to report them all and get rid of this harm to the people!
Xi Jingyue's eyes were slightly cold. He glanced at the family Duanrao mentioned inconspicuously and quickly confirmed their identities.
No wonder their family's company has been so strong in recent years, and has even surpassed the second cousin's family, who are the most adept at scheming. It turns out that they touched something they shouldn't have touched.
Everyone was shocked by the scene before their eyes. After a long while, Xi Yanqi gritted his teeth and said stubbornly, "It's a trick. This must be a trick that the woman deliberately used. It's all fake, fake!"
Just as he finished speaking, the black smoke above the grave mound nearest to him seemed to have awakened its self-awareness, and it floated towards Xi Yanqi with its fangs and claws bared, carried along by the spring breeze.
Xi Yanqi's face changed drastically and he instinctively wanted to escape, but his legs were out of control.
Seeing that the black smoke was approaching in the blink of an eye, Xi Yanqi could only try to comfort himself: It was just a bluff. How could such an unlucky thing that could not be seen or touched possibly hurt me?
As soon as this idea came to mind, it was slapped in the face by reality.
Snap——
Everyone clearly heard a loud slap and someone's painful cry.
"Ghost, there's a ghost, help, there's a ghost, there's a ghost!"
Everyone: "..." We all saw it. Didn't you just say it was all an illusion? Now you're being slapped in the face? This is a real slap in the face!
Several of the little followers who followed Xi Yanqi and fanned the flames were a little panicked, and those who disliked Xi Yanqi were not much better off.
Because they soon discovered that the eldest brother didn't need to laugh at the second brother, because it would soon be their turn to receive the slap, and no one would escape, one by one.
So, in the next half hour, the ancestor worship scene was in chaos, with slaps and screams flying everywhere, ears and heads being pulled, it was like hell on earth.
The few survivors all gathered around Duanrao at this moment, watching this scene with both emotion and fear.
"This is... too tragic, isn't it? What evil things did they do to force their ancestors to crawl out from underground and slap them like this?"
The third cousin looked at a few of her sworn enemies in the crowd who had always been at odds with her and were now fleeing frantically. She felt a little complicated. Besides feeling relieved, she also felt a little bit of sympathy, although if you put them together, the feeling was probably only the size of a fingernail.
My third uncle pushed the gold-rimmed glasses on his nose and said the most heartless words in the gentlest tone.
"It must be some immoral and evil things. It's all retribution."
Mr. Xi and others had never expected that such a dramatic scene would occur during a proper ancestor worship ceremony.
After being surprised, he couldn't help but ask tentatively: "An An, is there any way you can help them? I know that what they just said was indeed a bit excessive and offended you, but... we can't let them keep making trouble like this, right?"
Duan Rao blinked and said innocently: "I want to help them, but I'm afraid this...is not a good idea."
"Why... not good?"
"It's only natural for a father to beat his son, not to mention that this ancestor who is several generations apart finally got the chance to teach the younger generation a lesson. Do you really want to stop him? Besides, this is your family affair after all. As an outsider, it's not right for me to interfere."
Everyone in the Xi family: “…” What you said makes a lot of sense, we are speechless.
Xi Jingyue's mouth twitched slightly, and he seriously suspected that Duanrao did it on purpose, with ulterior motives and deliberate revenge.
But if she thought about it carefully, if these ignorant guys hadn't come to pick on her, she wouldn't have done anything to them, so it was all their own fault, and she couldn't blame others.
The most important thing right now is...
