The old woman sat up straight and said seriously, "He wasn't like this before. I can assure you. He used to be a very filial man who loved his wife and children very much. But he went on a business trip half a year ago, and he changed a lot after he came back. Especially in the past two or three months, he suddenly had a ghostly aura. I used the magic tool I left with me to drive him away, but it didn't work. He even found me, and in a rage, he drove me back to this old house."
Having said this, the old woman suddenly knelt down in front of the couple.
Zhang Meng and Gu Mingtai were shocked when they saw this, and they quickly stepped forward to help her up.
Zhang Meng looked at her puzzledly and asked, "Auntie, what are you doing? Get up quickly."
The old woman slowly stood up with the help of the two men and sat back in her original chair. Suddenly, she sighed, "It's all my fault for my half-baked magic. If I were more powerful, that R-country ghost would have died at my hands."
Zhang Meng immediately looked towards Gu Mingtai, and the couple's expressions changed at the same time.
"You just said that was a ghost from Country R?"
Gu Mingtai half-closed his eyes and looked towards the old woman.
The old woman nodded. "It was a ghost from R country. I accidentally heard him speak R language once. Although I have never spoken to R people, I can still recognize their words. When those R people bullied us Chinese, I will never forget the way they spoke in my life."
"Gu Mingtai." Zhang Meng glanced at him worriedly. Gu Mingtai stood up and said, "Auntie, can you please meet your daughter? If we want to get rid of this r country monster, we may need your daughter's help."
The old woman hesitated for a moment, then quickly nodded. "I can do that. The ghost from Country R goes out every day, and I can sneak over there."
Gu Mingtai nodded and said, "Okay, we'll go with you tomorrow morning."
The old woman quickly agreed to the plan.
After leaving the old woman's house, the couple walked on the street where there were no people.
At this moment, they were the only couple walking on the quiet street. The moonlight above their heads cast their figures into two long figures leaning on each other.
"Gu Mingtai, is what the old woman said just now true?" Zhang Meng leaned on his shoulder as they walked.
Gu Mingtai pursed his lips and said, "I guess it's true. She has no reason to lie to us!"
Zhang Meng thought about it and felt that what he said was quite right. At this moment, her shoulders were firmly embraced and she said, "Go back to sleep."
The couple returned to the guesthouse and had a good sleep.
The next morning, the two had a simple breakfast near the guesthouse and went to wait downstairs of the old woman's residence where she had lived the previous night.
The two waited downstairs for nearly ten minutes, and finally the old woman came down slowly.
"Let's go." The old woman saw the two of them and didn't say much, just these two words.
Zhang Meng and Gu Mingtai quickly followed in their footsteps. This time, with the old woman leading the way, they quickly found the residence of Chen Zhenchang.
The person who opened the door was a young woman with a haggard face.
The young woman opened the door and saw the old woman standing at the door. Her eyes immediately became moist and she called out to her with a choked voice, "Mom."
When the old woman saw her daughter like this, her heart skipped a beat. She walked in immediately, looked around, and immediately asked the young woman, "Did that man go to work?"
Mrs. Chen wiped her tears and nodded slightly, "I'm going to work. Mom, do you have any way to save Dongsheng?"
The old woman immediately looked towards Zhang Meng and Gu Mingtai who followed them in.
Mrs. Chen immediately noticed her mother's action and quickly looked over. Only then did she realize that her mother had brought two strangers to her house today.
"Mom, who are these two?" Mrs. Chen asked Zhang Meng and Gu Mingtai.
The old woman immediately explained to her, "These two are here to help us. Their magic is many times more powerful than your mother's. This time Dongsheng can be saved. They can help us drive out the R-country demon in Dongsheng's body."
Mrs. Chen looked at the couple, hesitation flashed in her eyes, and she whispered in the old woman's ear, "Mom, is this okay? They are so young, I'm afraid they don't have the ability to do this."
The old woman slapped Mrs. Chen's arm vigorously and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? Don't say anything nonsense. They are willing to help us out of kindness. You are not allowed to doubt their abilities. Do you understand?"
Mrs. Chen groaned from being hit. When she looked up and saw her mother's grim expression, she immediately changed her tone and said, "I know, Mom. I don't doubt that they are."
Zhang Meng and Gu Mingtai looked at each other, and a helpless smile flashed in the eyes of both of them.
It's not their fault that they are too young.
Gu Mingtai immediately said to Mrs. Chen, "Mrs. Chen, can I go and take a look at the room where you and Mayor Chen live?"
Mrs. Chen frowned subconsciously, "Why do you want to go to my room?"
Although there was nothing shameful in their room, she really didn't want to show it to strangers.
Seeing her daughter still distrustful, the old woman immediately stood up angrily, snorted, and grabbed Zhang Meng and Gu Mingtai's hands and said, "Let's go. Since this little girl doesn't need our help, let's leave here immediately."
Mrs. Chen was startled when she saw her mother standing up and about to leave. She quickly came to her senses and ran forward to block the old woman's way. "Mom, what are you doing? Please stop making trouble."
The old woman glanced at her and snorted, "Who told you to make trouble, you little bitch? The master came here with good intentions to help us, what do you want to do with your attitude now?"
Seeing this, Mrs. Chen looked a little embarrassed. She secretly glanced at Zhang Meng and Gu Mingtai, then lowered her head embarrassedly and apologized to them in a low voice.
"Mrs. Chen, we accept your apology, but if you still want my husband and I to drive the evil spirit out of Chen Zhenchang's body, you must listen to us. Otherwise, we can't help you even if we want to, don't you think?" Zhang Meng looked at her and said.
Mrs. Chen smiled awkwardly and nodded, "Yes, you are right. It's me who didn't understand it. You want to go see our room, right? I'll take you in now."
As soon as she finished speaking, Mrs. Chen immediately sat up from the sofa.
When Zhang Meng and Gu Mingtai stood up, the old woman suddenly said to them, "My daughter is indecisive. Please don't be angry with her. Please help her."
