However, Su Ruyi hid in the space, so naturally she couldn't see Lan Yu's method of dealing with demons and monsters.
Lan Yu strode quickly through the rooms, and was about to find the one where Qiao Tianyue was hiding.
Su Ruyi wasn't sure if she could subdue him, but she had to act now!
Golden needles instantly appeared in her palm and flew straight toward the back of Lan Yu's head.
Just then, Lan Yu opened Qiao Tianyue's door and saw the unfamiliar girl inside. He was stunned, and his expression froze for a moment—because Su Ruyi's golden needle had already pierced the Naohu acupoint at the back of his head.
Although Lan Yu was a Taoist priest with cultivation, he was still a mortal with flesh and blood. He couldn't withstand the blow and collapsed after swaying.
"Ah!" Qiao Tianyue screamed and quickly took a few steps back.
Taking advantage of the opening, Su Ruyi flashed out of the space and rushed over, saying to Qiao Tianyue, "Yue'er, turn around and close your eyes!"
Qiao Tianyue obediently turned around and closed her eyes tightly.
A few minutes later, when she heard no sound behind her, she turned around to check, only to find that there was nothing there—neither the middle-aged man who had just fallen to the ground nor Su Ruyi had been seen.
At this moment, Su Ruyi had already brought Lan Yu into the space.
Su Qiushi ran all the way from the study, panting, and asked, "Ruyi, what happened?"
Su Ruyi opened the pocket on her clothes and looked inside—seven or eight amulets, all of which had turned to ashes.
She stared blankly at the unconscious Lan Yu in front of her, her lips trembling slightly: "This person... came to kill me, he... is very powerful."
Su Qiushi hurriedly turned around and grabbed a rope: "Then hurry up and tie him up!"
So the grandfather and grandson worked together to tie Lan Yu tightly to the stool.
Unexpectedly, a burst of unrestrained laughter echoed throughout the space: "Hahahaha! There's actually such a hidden world within a sleeve? This old man has truly broadened his horizons! Ahahahaha!"
The voice was exceptionally deep and resonant, lingering in the space for a long time, which greatly surprised Su Ruyi and Su Qiushi.
"What, are you scared?" the voice asked again.
The echo reverberated through the space—
"Are you scared... are you scared...?"
It was repeated several times.
Su Ruyi looked up at the sky: "Comrade, it seems you have some skills. How can you be so unable to distinguish right from wrong? Qi Zhao sent you to harm me, and you came to do the same?"
Lan Yu remained seated in the chair, tightly bound, his head drooping on his chin, appearing unconscious. However, his voice continued to echo in the space: "What Qi Zhao? I'm clearly acting on behalf of Heaven to rid you of this scourge!"
Su Ruyi was greatly surprised: "How am I a menace?"
Lan Yu asked, "I'm asking you, do you have an older brother named Su Yin? How many brothers are you again?"
Su Ruyi was now completely certain. She gave a soft hum – it really was related to Su Yin again!
She replied, "Su Yin is my third brother."
"Very well. So you tampered with him and damaged his heart meridian?"
Su Ruyi said frankly, "It's me."
Lan Yu laughed: "Fine, you've got guts. Since you've done something so heinous, don't blame me."
Su Ruyi said, "I have my reasons for damaging his heart meridian. If I don't stop him, Su Yin will become a great villain in this life! Countless people will lose their lives at his hands!"
"Oh, so you, this so-called quack doctor, can also predict the future?" Lan Yu's tone was extremely sarcastic.
Su Ruyi said, "Comrade, I don't know who you are. But since you're trying to take my life, you're probably not a very upright person. I don't need to explain anything to you!"
As they were talking, Su Qiushi had already taken a sharp knife from the kitchen and pressed it hard against Lan Yu's chest while he was sitting on the chair.
He said, "My granddaughter has always done good deeds and has never done anything wrong. She has her reasons for dealing with Su Yin!"
Lan Yu sneered, "She has her reasons? A truly wicked person does indeed have their own reasons for acting, but those reasons are probably different from everyone else's. Little girl, just who are you?"
After observing for a while, Su Ruyi understood that Lan Yu was unconscious but could still speak, which must be some kind of strange and unusual magic.
But with Su Qiushi's dagger already pressed against his heart, he had no way to do anything, which meant that he had no other option but to speak!
Su Ruyi probed, "Since that's the case, and you've decided I'm a wicked person, what's wrong with me killing you with one blow now? After all, you've already tried to take my life!"
Lan Yu said frankly, "I am taking your life on behalf of Heaven. If you kill me... I'm afraid you won't be able to bear the consequences!"
"Oh," Su Ruyi asked curiously, "So you consider yourself a gentleman?"
Lan Yu coughed twice: "I have said before that I, Qingfeng Daoren Lan Yu, will never change my name or surname."
Su Ruyi looked at Su Qiushi: "Grandpa, have you heard of this person?"
Su Qiushi said blankly, "No, I've never heard of that."
Lan Yu was a little embarrassed: "Ahem! There's no one in the entire capital who doesn't know my name!"
Su Qiushi then looked up and asked, "Ruyi, have you arrived in Beijing?"
Su Ruyi said helplessly, "Yes, Grandpa, I've told you several times that I asked you if you wanted to come out for a walk, but you always said you wanted to read!"
Su Qiushi scratched his head: "This...it really is...there is such a thing."
After saying that, he quickly pressed the dagger back against Lan Yu's chest.
Su Ruyi looked up at the sky: "This Taoist Master Lan..."
Lan Yu corrected him, "If you want to call me Taoist Master, then call me Taoist Master Qingfeng! If you want to use my secular name, then call me Comrade Lan, or Director Lan, either is fine. Don't use both!"
It has quite a few problems!
Su Ruyi changed her words and said:
"Master Qingfeng, I will not kill you!"
I've said it before, I'm a doctor, practicing medicine to help people, not a murderer!
"And as I've already said, I'm punishing Su Yin because if I let him continue unchecked, he'll become a truly wicked and evil person in this life!"
Lan Yu interrupted her, saying, "How did you know?!"
Su Ruyi glanced at Su Qiushi, then steeled her resolve: "I know about his past life! I also experienced his past life!"
Lan Yu gasped, "You...you're here to undergo tribulation? You're...from over there?"
Su Ruyi nodded and said, "That's right."
Hearing their conversation, Su Qiushi was dumbfounded: "Ruyi... my little Ruyi, you actually—you've come here to undergo tribulation?!"
