Whether he sensed her reluctance to speak or felt something else, the Taoist priest did not continue to ask.
He simply gave Qi Ruyu a talisman and told her to carry it with her so that she could avoid encountering unclean things.
Qi Ruyu replied, "I understand."
Actually, she didn't understand why she helped Wan Ge cover it up. She didn't know if it was because she thought it was impossible for her to be Wan Ge, or if the other person was really too good-looking. Anyway, Qi Ruyu didn't say it directly.
She didn't know if her cousin knew about this, but she needed to go to him to confirm.
…
"By the way, Xiaoyu, did you come to see me?" Madam Zishu asked Qi Ruyu with a puzzled look.
Qi Ruyu smiled and replied, "It's been a long time since I last visited my aunt, so I wanted to come and see her. But I didn't expect to find her praying for blessings. In that case, I won't disturb you any longer. I'll leave now and visit you another day."
After Qi Ruyu finished speaking, she ran away immediately, without giving anyone else a chance to speak.
"Daoist Master..." Madam Zishu was actually a little worried, but she wondered if her niece might really encounter a fox demon and something bad might happen to her.
"Madam, there's no need to worry. The talisman I gave her is very powerful; she won't be in any danger."
"Thank you so much, Daoist Master." Madam Zishu bowed to the Daoist Master again.
The Taoist priest shook his head: "Madam, you are too kind. It is fate that brings us together, and it is all I should do."
However, the Taoist priest has yet to see the son the woman mentioned. But when he first visited her home, he sensed that this time the situation might be different.
…
The cousin who had run out of Zishu Mansion finally breathed a sigh of relief. Looking at the main road in front of her, she ran straight towards the restaurant.
Just as I arrived at the restaurant entrance, I saw two people who had finished lunch and were about to leave.
Qi Ruyu stopped Zishu Yan directly and asked, "Are you planning to go home? You can't go back now!"
Zishu Yan did indeed consider taking people home, but not to the Zishu Mansion; rather, he wanted to take them back to the area around the bamboo house.
"What's it to you?" Zishu Yan didn't answer the other party directly, but instead said this.
Qi Ruyu said again, "We can't go back. Your family has a Taoist priest now, and he seems to be quite powerful."
Wan Ge looked at the two people in front of her with a face full of doubt, not quite understanding what they were talking about. What was a Taoist priest? What would happen after they met a Taoist priest? Why did they say they couldn't go back?
Zishu Yan frowned slightly, but then quickly remembered something: "I'm not going back there. Besides, what does it matter if the Taoist priest is there? It's alright."
When Zishu Yan said this, he subconsciously glanced at Wan Ge, but she didn't seem to react.
Perhaps Wan Ge has no idea what a Taoist priest is.
At this moment, Wan Ge asked him in a low voice, "Who is this Taoist priest you're talking about?"
Zi Shuyan explained softly, "You can think of them as demon hunters."
Upon hearing this, Wan Ge froze. What?! She'd already encountered a demon hunter so soon? In the story, these kinds of things only happen after the female lead becomes pregnant. How come she's already met a demon hunter?
I've moved way too fast!
