Chapter 90 The Man Behind the Scenes
Seeing that the little ghosts in the jar had almost eaten all the food, the Taoist priest slowly stood up and summoned a green ghost:
"Go tell them that my magical power is limited. Ask them to come back tomorrow!"
"Yes, master!" The green ghost quickly floated away.
Chu Ruanruan and Chu Qi quickly set up a magic circle to hide their human breath.
The green ghost stopped as soon as it walked out of the door, and looked around with its pupilless eyes. It seemed to sense some human presence, but only a trace of it, which quickly disappeared.
Qing Gui went out without thinking much.
"Ruanruan, this guy is a demon, we can't let him go like this!" Chu Qi said angrily.
"Such a thing happened here, but there was no movement in the underworld. I'm afraid something happened to the ghost soldiers responsible for this area. Let's not alert them first!" Chu Runrun said.
"What should we do now?" Ge Hanlin asked.
Seeing that the Taoist priest had left, Chu Runrun took out a paper man, bit his fingertip and dripped his own blood on it, and let the paper man quietly follow him.
"Let's go back first and let the paper man follow him to see what he is going to do!"
After saying that, Chu Ruanruan took everyone away.
When they arrived at a safe place, the first thing Chu Ruanruan did was to communicate with the paper man.
Strangely, what Chu Ruanruan saw through the paper man was actually her home.
Chu Ruanruan was suddenly shocked.
"Ruanruan, what's wrong?"
"That Taoist priest went to my house!"
After Chu Ruanruan finished speaking, she hurried home.
Why did this Taoist priest go to her house? Is it related to her?
Dad, Mom, brother, please don’t get into any trouble!
"Ruanruan, get in the car!"
Chu Qi chased after them in her car, and Chu Runrun quickly climbed into the car.
Ten minutes later, the car stopped in front of Ning's house, and the lights in the villa were still on.
Chu Ruanruan hurried in: "Dad, Mom, Brother!"
Chu Runrun pushed the door open breathlessly and saw Ning Youwei, Han Lixue and Ning Xuan eating.
"Ruanruan, you're back. Have you eaten?" Han Lixue asked.
Seeing that they were all fine, Chu Runrun breathed a sigh of relief.
Ning Xuan looked at the sweat on Chu Ruanruan's forehead and quickly took a tissue to wipe it off for her:
"What happened?"
Chu Ruanruan shook her head: "Nothing!"
Chu Qi, Ge Hanlin and Tian Yuyuan also walked in.
"Xiaoqi, Xiaotaozi, Xiaotian, you are all here!" Ning Youwei and Han Lixue hurriedly invited them in to sit down.
"Uncle, aunt, just eat your meal and don't worry about us!"
Chu Qi finished speaking with a smile, then quickly pulled Chu Ruanruan over and whispered:
"I'm going to go outside and take a look around to prevent that stinky Taoist priest from really doing anything bad!"
"Sister, be careful!" Chu Runrun said.
"Uncle, aunt, I think the peaches in your garden are good. Can I pick some?" Chu Qi made up an excuse.
"Of course you can! Xiaoqi, you are Ruanruan's biological sister, just like our child. Just take whatever you want!" Han Lixue said with a smile.
"Thank you, Auntie!" Chu Qi said and ran out quickly.
"Xiaoqi and Ruanruan have really different personalities. She's very impetuous!" Ning Youwei said with a smile.
About half an hour later, Chu Qi came back.
Ning Youwei was working in the office, Han Lixue was reading in the study, Chu Runrun, Ning Xuan, Chu Qi, Ge Hanlin and Tian Yuyuan all gathered in Chu Runrun's room.
"Sister, how is it? Have you found anything?" Chu Runrun asked hurriedly.
Chu Qi took out a few peach wood nails and a mirror from his pocket:
"Guess where I found this."
"Peach wood nails? Mirror? These are used to scare away ghosts!" Chu Runrun frowned.
"That's right! I found it under the window of your room. These mahogany nails form a ghost-locking formation. This mirror is facing your window diagonally. When the sun rises tomorrow, the mirror will become a reflective evil spirit, projecting the ghost-locking formation directly into your room."
Chu Ruanruan thought for a moment, then quickly took out the jade bone flute:
"He's targeting Sister Zhiyin! This Ghost Locking Formation is different from the Ghost Binding Formation. The Ghost Binding Formation can only bind ghosts without causing any harm, but the Ghost Locking Formation will drain the ghosts' power!"
"The core of this ghost-locking formation is a drop of ghost blood. I guess it belongs to the little ghost raised by the Taoist priest. He did this to absorb all of Wei Zhiyin's power and give it to the little ghost!" Chu Qi said.
"I don't know that Taoist priest at all. How did he know Sister Zhiyin?"
Chu Ruanruan just finished speaking when she suddenly remembered: "Jia Chengyu!"
"Yes! Apart from you, he is the only one who knows about Sister Zhiyin's existence. Could it be that he was the one who found this Taoist priest?" Chu Runrun frowned.
"Huaming Company has completely gone bankrupt. Jia Chengyu was detained on suspicion of tax evasion. If you want to know if it is him, you will find out tomorrow!" Ning Xuan said.
"This Taoist priest not only raises little ghosts but also wants to harm Sister Zhiyin. We must not let him go!" Ge Hanlin said angrily.
Tian Yuyuan stretched lazily: "Alright! If we don't let him go, it will be tomorrow. If we don't go back now, your grandfather will be worried!"
"Ruanruan, Chuqi, I'm going to take Xiao Taozi back first!"
Chu Ruanruan: "Okay! Be careful on the road!"
It was already half past nine. Chu Qi's home was far away, so Chu Runrun didn't let her go back. Instead, she prepared a guest room for her.
After taking a shower, Chu Qi looked at Ning Xuan who was teaching Chu Runrun to build Lego in the living room, and a sly smile flashed in her eyes.
"Ruanruan, it's already late, hurry up and take a shower and go to bed!"
"Sister, can I ride with you for a while?"
"No! It's too late now. Building with Legos hurts your eyes and your brain!"
Chu Qi pushed and pulled Chu Ruanruan into the bathroom, then looked at Ning Xuan with a weird look.
Ning Xuan felt his back crawl under Chu Qi's gaze and couldn't help but ask, "Why are you looking at me like that?"
"Hey, how are things going between you and Ruanruan?" Chu Qi asked without beating around the bush.
Ning Xuan couldn't help but coughed lightly and said, "What are you developing?"
"It's... um~hmm~that kind of relationship!" Chu Qi raised an eyebrow.
Ning Xuan glanced in the direction of the bathroom: "Ruanruan is still young, I'm afraid she will be scared by me!"
"She is already eighteen years old, not young anymore. She can fall in love when she goes to college. College is a place full of handsome guys. Someone like Ruanruan is no different from Tang Monk entering a den of monsters. If you don't act early, if Ruanruan is deceived by some bad boy, you won't even have time to cry!" Chu Qi said excitedly.
Ning Xuan frowned slightly. Although he also had this worry, there were countless boys pursuing Ruanruan since she entered puberty, but none of them was more handsome or outstanding than him.
Those boys are not as good as him, why would Ruanruan like them?
"No rush! Let's wait until Ruanruan grows a little bigger!" Ning Xuan said.
Chu Qi sighed in frustration, "You, you've wasted my efforts. You really took my kindness for granted!"
After saying that, Chu Qi went into her room and slammed the door.
