When Bei Yutang and Mrs. Xie walked aside to talk, Xie Shiming asked questions to the housekeeper and soon learned Bei Yutang's identity from the housekeeper.
"Master Shangqing." She murmured.
She had no memory of a Shangqing Zhenren ever coming to Yunzhou Prefecture.
This guy must be a liar.
At this moment, Madam Xie, who had been pulled aside by Bei Yutang to talk, asked nervously and anxiously, "Where is the evil spirit? Please tell me, Taoist priest."
Bei Yutang didn't speak directly, but instead warned, "Madam, I'm afraid what I'm about to say will be difficult for you to accept. When you hear it, I hope you won't show any shock, and definitely not make any sound, so as not to alert the evil spirit."
After hearing Bei Yutang's instructions, Mrs. Xie nodded solemnly.
"The evil spirit is in your adopted daughter."
"Ah?!" Mrs. Xie was shocked. She was originally surprised by the evil spirit, but it took on a different meaning.
"Master, you must have made a mistake."
Before Mrs. Xie could finish her words, she was interrupted by Bei Yutang.
"There was a thick black aura on her body. When she approached the compass, the compass reacted violently." Bei Yutang said solemnly.
"No, what I mean is that the woman is not my adopted daughter, but my biological daughter." Mrs. Xie corrected, but she couldn't help feeling a little strange.
He is a powerful Taoist priest, but he actually misjudged such a thing, which makes people begin to doubt his ability.
Bei Yutang frowned and said solemnly, "Madam, you are the one who made the mistake. From the way I look at your face, I can see that this girl doesn't look like your biological child. Instead, there's a subtle sense of gratitude towards you."
"How is that possible!" Mrs. Xie didn't believe it.
"Although I can't say I'm an expert in face reading, I've never made a mistake." Bei Yutang said with a Taoist air, stroking his gray beard.
Mrs. Xie was so shocked that she completely forgot about the evil spirit.
Bei Yutang continued, "This woman's fate is unlucky for the whole family. She is born with bad luck. Living with her for a long time will definitely lead to misfortune."
"Master, you mean that she is not my daughter, and that she has brought misfortune to my Gu family, and that she has no offspring, thus hindering the master's future?" Mrs. Xie's body trembled slightly.
"Exactly."
"This, how is this possible." Mrs. Xie didn't believe it, but when she met Bei Yutang's deep and calm eyes, a voice in her heart told her that what he said was true.
"I don't know why Madam doesn't know about this. If you have any questions, you can investigate secretly. Then you will know whether what I said is nonsense or not."
"Okay, I understand."
Seeing this, Bei Yutang knew that she had successfully taken the second step. The next step was to see what Madam Xie would do.
At this time, Xie Shiming walked towards them, "Mother, I just heard from the housekeeper that there is an evil spirit in my yard. I think this Taoist priest must have seen it wrong. My yard is clean, how could there be an evil spirit?"
Although Madam Xie was kind-hearted, she was not stupid. After agreeing to Bei Yutang, she naturally kept it a secret, let alone told her.
"Ming'er, don't talk nonsense. Wait for the Taoist priest to perform a ritual in a few days to exorcise the evil spirits in your courtyard. Don't worry."
Xie Shiming was very filial, so he naturally wouldn't refute her words.
In her opinion, the old Taoist priest dressed by Bei Yutang was nothing but a charlatan.
