Chapter 156 The Dire Situation of the Dark Underworld
Just like now, she looks exactly like Shi Kong. If she doesn't speak, Shi Kong will keep looking at her like this until she tells him.
Helpless, Feng Qingge could only sigh and compromise, "Both ox tears and willow branches are used to ward off ghosts. I can't see anything related to ghosts right now, so I can only use these two to verify it." The fact that she needed so many ox tears was naturally meaningful; she wanted to pair them with something else to use on Mo Linyuan.
"I heard that the Third Young Master has been a disciple of Master Shikong at Fanyin Temple since childhood. Is this skill of exorcising ghosts passed down by the Master?" Qilin asked again, seemingly harboring many doubts.
“Exactly.” Feng Qingge nodded without explaining anything. Many people don’t believe in ghosts and gods, and she couldn’t force others to believe.
"I don't know..."
"Qilin, you talk too much." Just as Qilin was about to ask something, Mo Linyuan suddenly raised his eyes and glanced at him, and Qilin immediately fell silent.
"Yes," the Qilin replied, then walked to the side and indeed remained silent.
The three of them didn't wait long in the house before Hei Ming returned with a group of people. They all looked rather disheveled, their faces covered in dirt and grime.
Hei Ming was carrying a leather bag, which rattled as he walked.
"Hey, Black Nether, did you guys go underground?" As the group entered the room, Feng Qingge immediately noticed their filthy appearance and faces, which looked as if they had rolled around on the ground several times.
"Third Young Master." Hei Ming's expression turned slightly awkward, then he handed her the leather bag and stepped aside.
"Tsk tsk, if I hadn't gotten my hands on these ox tears, I would have really thought you guys went to roll around in the wild." After clicking her tongue a few times, Feng Qingge even circled around Hei Ming twice, then stroked her chin, looked up at him, and teased him relentlessly.
Hearing this, Hei Ming became even more embarrassed. Then, even Mo Linyuan looked over curiously, so he had no choice but to speak, "Your Highness, just now, my subordinate and several guards went to find a farmer's cowshed, but no matter what we tried, the cow wouldn't shed tears. We had no choice but to work together with the guards to build a fire and use the smoke to induce tears." In the end, they even compensated the farmer with several taels of silver, and when they left, the farmer was heartbroken.
"Pfft!" Feng Qingge burst out laughing after hearing this. How could these people even come up with something like using smoke? Haha, that's hilarious.
Seeing Feng Qingge laughing heartily, it seemed like she would collapse from laughing for a while.
"That's definitely a method, hahahaha!" He laughed until tears streamed down his face. He never expected that Hei Ming, who was usually so dull, would do something so funny.
"..." Hei Ming was speechless, but he couldn't hide his embarrassment. He, the regent's personal guard, was actually doing such a thing.
Although the ox tears have arrived, the willow branches are hard to find. It is said that each tree has different branches, but the willow branches, which only have five leaves at the top, are extremely difficult to find.
Fortunately, the guards were quick enough to search all the willow trees in the suburbs. At this time, the willow branches did not have many leaves, so they were relatively easy to find.
By the time the pair of guards returned, it was almost dark, but thankfully they had finally found it.
At this moment, Feng Qingge poured out the cow tears from the leather bag. A fist-sized blue-and-white porcelain cup, just the right size to hold the cow tears, was placed on the table.
He filled a cup with pale yellow cow tears, and before he finished pouring, he put down the leather bag and took the five-leaf willow branch handed to him by the guard.
