Chapter 19



The first person to speak was Mr. Xu’s youngest daughter, Xu Zijun, who is 29 years old and is Mr. Xu’s late-born son.

She was tall and beautiful, standing out among the crowd. She didn't care when she was told to "get lost". Instead, she said softly, "Dad, you are injured. I'll call Dr. Wang and ask him to come over and see you."

The concern in her tone didn't sound fake, and her expression was equally impeccable.

Jing Cheng couldn't help but glance at her, thinking that this woman was really well-educated and her skills in cultivating her qi were truly amazing.

Old Xu took a few deep breaths in anger and was unable to speak.

At this time, the other members of the Xu family also reacted, and they gathered around, expressing their confusion in shock.

"Oh my god, what happened here?"

"Why are all the things broken? Be careful not to step on the broken glass."

"What's going on? Was there an earthquake just now? Why didn't I feel it at all?"

...

...

"Oh, Dad! What's wrong with your face?"

Finally, someone noticed the thin scratches on Mr. Xu's face, and the surprised tone made everyone's eyes fall on Mr. Xu's face.

Old Xu's lips trembled with anger. He was so angry that he couldn't vent his anger. His face had never looked so ugly as it did today.

Jing Cheng also saw the scars on Old Xu's face. After thinking for a while, he took out a few band-aids from his pocket, handed them to Old Xu, and comforted him, "Anger is harmful to the body. It is important to take care of yourself, old man."

Mr. Xu: “…” If all these things are stuck on your face, will your face still be visible?

"Do you want me to help you open it?" Jing Cheng lowered his head and frowned at the few band-aids in his hand, feeling reluctant.

After hesitating for a moment, he took back two more and put them into his trouser pocket, leaving only one in his hand.

"..." Mr. Xu originally thought that since it was a little gift from the master, he would take it first, regardless of whether he could use it or not. But now he watched him take back what he had taken out, and his heart was very complicated.

However, a member of the Xu family stopped Jing Cheng's action and said, "You can't use a band-aid. Your face hasn't been disinfected yet! Doctor Wang will be here soon. Let him treat you."

Hearing this, Jing Cheng felt as if he had been pardoned. Without thinking, he stuffed the remaining band-aid back into his trouser pocket, patted it, and his brows relaxed.

Mr. Xu: “…………” It turns out that they don’t even want to give you one!

As soon as Jing Cheng turned his head, he met Old Xu's resentful eyes. The resentment seemed to take shape. He was startled and thought, could there be another ghost in this room?

If you don't remove the roots of the grass, it will grow again when the spring breeze comes. This is not acceptable!

So Jing Cheng made a seal with one hand and chanted the spell "...please grant me the Dharma Eye to see Yin and Yang", then pointed at the center of his eyebrows. When he opened his eyes again, the whole room looked different in his eyes.

The furnishings in the room became dim and unclear. He looked around the room carefully and found that there was only a strong sense of vitality in the room. The yin energy had completely disappeared, and he felt relaxed.

He closed his Yin-Yang eyes and turned around to see that everyone was looking at him in a daze.

A member of the Xu family came over and asked him curiously, "What are you doing?"

Jing Cheng looked back at him, felt that it was too troublesome to explain, and kept silent.

"..." The Xu family member looked embarrassed, thinking that this child was so rude. Not only did he ignore them and didn't say hello, but he also didn't know what he did here to make such a mess in their home.

But after all, the other party was the one that Mr. Xu brought home, and they were used to not questioning anything Mr. Xu did. He could do nothing if the child ignored him.

I guess the other people in the Xu family thought the same way. Seeing someone hit a wall, no one would come over to cause trouble.

Knowing that there was no earthquake here, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Not long after, servants came to disturb and clean up the room. The Xu family also contacted several workers to replace the glass and furniture... All the aftermath work was carried out in a tense and orderly manner.

While Dr. Wang was treating Mr. Xu's wound, Jing Cheng's cell phone rang several times, but every time he picked up the phone, he saw "unknown number" on the screen and hung up.

He remembered that Assistant Wang had told him that calls from unfamiliar numbers were mostly scams and should not be answered.

When he hung up the phone, the little boy from the Xu family who admired him very much was still standing next to him. Seeing that he didn't answer the phone and hung up again and again, the little boy couldn't help but ask: "Brother, why don't you answer the phone?"

Jing Cheng put his phone back into his trouser pocket and said nonchalantly, "Don't answer a scammer's call. If you answer, you'll be fooled."

The little boy nodded, not quite understanding, and looked at him with admiration and said, "Brother, you know so much!"

Jing Cheng recalled that when he was in the hospital two days ago, he heard an old man say that his son received a fraudulent phone call and was defrauded of hundreds of thousands of yuan. After he realized what was happening, he was so angry that he had a cerebral hemorrhage and was admitted to the hospital. He almost lost his son and felt so miserable that he couldn't express it.

So the scammers nowadays are really rampant. They kept calling back even after the call was hung up. What else can they do with such perseverance? If they call again, he will teach them a lesson, Jing Cheng thought.

Unexpectedly, the phone remained safely in my trouser pocket and never rang again.

Maybe he was afraid of being "taught a lesson" by himself, Jing Cheng curled his lips and said, "I'll spare you this time."

Half an hour ago, in Jing’s house at the other end of the community.

Jing Zhensong was holding the phone in one hand when he heard a gentle female voice saying, "The number you dialed is currently unavailable. Please call again later." He was immediately furious.

He looked at the person next to him, pointed at the hung up phone, and said in disbelief: "This brat actually dared to hang up on me, and hung up again and again, who gave him the courage?!"

At the dinner table, Jing Zhensong, as the head of the family, sat at the first seat, with Lu Qingyi and Jing Yue sitting on either side of him.

The table was filled with a sumptuous breakfast, and the steaming beef bone soup dumplings gave off an enticing aroma. The servant standing in the distance sniffed and couldn't help but take a few steps forward.

Hearing Jing's father's angry scolding, Jing Yue snorted and pouted, "Who else could it be? You!"

Jing Zhensong asked suspiciously, "Tell me, where can he go so early in the morning? I remember he never got up early before."

Lu Qingyi put down her bowl and chopsticks, and said with a bitter face: "You ask me, who should I ask? I told this kid yesterday that you would come back early today, but who knew that he would be gone when he woke up so early in the morning?"

Could it be that this brat is afraid that I will settle the score with him later, so he is deliberately avoiding me?

Thinking of this, Jing's father's face became even uglier, and he said angrily: "What a disgrace! There's no need to wait for him, just eat first! Wait until he comes back and see how I deal with him!"

Hearing this, Lu Qingyi curled the corners of her mouth and quickly lowered her head to drink soup to cover it up.

Jing Yue glanced at her and thought, why are you so happy? Every time her father came back, he said he would punish her second brother, but when did he really do that?

After Dr. Wang left, everyone in the Xu family gathered in the hall.

Old Xu threw the puppet girl doll that Jing Cheng had just found in his house on the ground. He looked at everyone with sharp eyes and said in a deep voice, "I will only ask once, who put this thing in my house?"

Everyone looked at each other, and someone asked, "Dad, why are you asking this?"

"What is this? Is it a toy?"

"Dad, you haven't told me what happened in the room just now. We are very worried now!"

"Did this kid tell you something again?" Boss Xu looked at Jing Cheng suspiciously, "You believe everything other people say. Maybe this kid is deceiving you because he sees that you are old and easy to fool."

Jing Cheng: “…” He was shot even while lying down.

Old Xu glared at Boss Xu and said sternly, "Don't bother talking about other things. I know who did it! If it weren't for Master Jing, I would be dead now! I'm saying this here to give her a chance to come forward. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude!"

Who is Master Jing? Everyone wondered in their hearts.

After hearing what Old Xu said, they felt even more strange. Someone couldn't help but ask, "Dad, you're just standing here, why are you cursing yourself for no reason?"

Mr. Xu ignored him and said to himself, "I'll count to five. Five."

Everyone in the Xu family: "..."

"Four."

"three."

Old Xu stared at the woman standing at the back. Seeing that she looked calm and indifferent, he gave her a powerful tip: "I've already called the police station. I guess you don't want to spend the rest of your life in jail, do you?"

Sure enough, the woman's face changed.

Mr. Xu's heart suddenly felt like it had fallen into an icy cave. Even though the sun was shining brightly outside, he felt cold from the bottom of his heart, and his whole body was cold. Deep disappointment wrapped him tightly, and he was so depressed that he could hardly breathe. He sighed deeply in his heart. It turned out to be his good daughter!

Old Xu closed his eyes, and when he spoke again, his voice was hoarse: "Two."

Jing Cheng noticed the change in Mr. Xu and sighed silently in his heart. Everything in the world has cause and effect. If a son is not taught well, it is the father's fault.

If I had known this would happen, why did I do it in the first place?

"one."

Old Xu lowered his head and waved his hands weakly, saying, "Master Jing, please help me burn this thing!"

Jing Cheng had told him before that the method to break the curse was very simple. All you had to do was find the "talisman" and burn it. After burning it, the person who cast the curse would be seriously injured and suffer the consequences.

Mr. Xu had wanted to give the other party a chance to admit his mistake out of love for his daughter. But now it seems that the other party is determined to kill him and does not want to reconcile with him, so he will just pretend that he does not have this daughter.

Jing Cheng didn't have too many thoughts. Their Taoist sect has always been incompatible with evil sects. If Old Xu hadn't stopped him before, he would have wanted to burn it down long ago.

Hearing this, he almost couldn't wait to snap his fingers, and Samadhi True Fire emerged from his fingertips.

Everyone in the Xu family:!!!

Some people couldn't help but rub their eyes. Is this magic or a trick? Who is this kid?

The little boy also exclaimed, "Wow!" His voice was filled with amazement: "Patriarch Bodhi is about to use his ultimate move!"

Jing Cheng's fingers trembled, and he quickly steadied himself.

What a close call! The Samadhi True Fire almost went out.

Jing Cheng put his fingers together and chanted a spell. Just as he was about to burn the puppet on the ground, a panicked female voice suddenly rang out: "Don't, don't burn it——"
