The evil cultivator who was hiding in a video store next door probably didn't expect to be discovered. When Qiqi rushed into the store, he hadn't even put away the altar he was using for his rituals.
When the shop door was pushed open, the wind chimes hanging above the door made a clear and pleasant tinkling sound.
The evil cultivator turned around and saw an angry child standing at the door, staring at him with icy, murderous eyes.
The middle-aged man in the black windbreaker paused for a moment, his sinister eyes under the brim of his baseball cap narrowed slightly, and he raised his hand to flick a black talisman, heading straight for Qiqi.
He remembered this girl; she was the one who had used a talisman to disrupt his attack with evil energy.
And the fact that she found this place so quickly means this girl is definitely not simple.
Therefore, when the middle-aged man made his move, he held nothing back.
Regardless of whether he held back or not, Qiqi wasn't afraid at all.
With a cold snort, she stomped her foot, dodged the opponent's talisman with a half-spin to the side, and at the same time quickly pulled out a talisman from her bag and threw it at the opponent.
Fighting her with talismans is suicide!
"Fire!" Qiqi made a hand seal and uttered two clear words in her sweet, childlike voice.
The middle-aged man was about to hide when he saw the talisman, but he stopped when he heard Qiqi's strange incantation.
Does this girl even know how to use talismans? With just two words, she wants to use a fire talisman? That's just wishful thinking!
In that moment of distraction, the talisman appeared before them.
The middle-aged man raised his hand and threw out a water talisman, trying to suppress Qiqi's fire talisman.
Before he could even cast the talisman and chant the incantation, a scorching flame swept over him.
The extremely high temperature made him realize instantly that this flame was no ordinary thing, but it was too late to dodge.
boom!
"Ah!" The middle-aged man screamed as he was burned by the flames.
The flames swept across, instantly engulfing the man completely.
Qiqi: ……
That's it?
She thought this person was really something, but it turned out... boring!
We can't hit them at all!
Qiqi originally wanted to burn him to ashes, but suddenly heard Huo Yuwei call her, "Qiqi, it's time to go."
All right.
Qiqi sighed with regret, raised her hand, and extinguished the flames.
The middle-aged man may not be burned to a crisp yet, but he's not far off.
His face was blackened, and his hair and clothes smelled burnt.
Qiqi disdainfully stuck a talisman on his forehead, then grabbed one of his legs and dragged him out of the jewelry store.
He only cared about walking forward, completely ignoring the people behind him who were bumped and bruised all over.
Huo Yuwei, who was waiting at the store entrance, felt his teeth ache from listening.
"This is……"
"The evil cultivator who attacked you earlier got a lesson from me!" Qi Qi casually tossed him to the ground and looked up at Huo Yuwei.
Her eyes sparkled, and she looked like she was waiting to be praised, which made Huo Yuwei's heart soften and he reached out to pat her head.
He then added a compliment, "Qiqi is amazing!"
Qiqi's lips suddenly stretched to behind her ears, revealing a bright smile and a set of clean, white teeth. She shook her head and pointed at the man on the ground, "What about that guy? He was the one who controlled the car that crashed into us!"
Huo Yuwei narrowed his eyes, his face turning cold.
He just checked and there was no driver in the vehicle involved in the accident; it was an unmanned vehicle that was temporarily parked on the side of the road.
If it weren't for the manipulation of evil energy, it would have been impossible for it to crash into them.
"Tie him up, and when the police arrive, someone will naturally investigate him."
Thinking of the Xuanmen Association in Jiangcheng, Qiqi suddenly understood.
It seems that there is a Xuanmen Association in Beijing as well, which makes things simpler.
Qiqi grabbed Huo Yuwei's hand. "Then, Brother Huo, please take me home!"
“Okay,” Huo Yuwei bent down and lifted the little girl up, “Where do you live?”
"Your home!"
Huo Yuwei: ...
“Qiqi, Brother Huo isn’t joking with you. Brother Huo has very important things to do next and won’t be able to take care of you, so…”
"I'm not kidding you, I really am staying at your house!"
The little girl looked at him and explained earnestly, "I came to Beijing with Brother Xiao Jiu. Grandma Huo invited me to visit Beijing! Then at the airport, I saw that you were in danger, so I left Mom and Brother Xiao Jiu behind and ran to find you! Mom and Brother Xiao Jiu should be waiting for me at your house right now!"
"You know Xiao Jiu?" Huo Yuwei was stunned. "And you know my grandma?"
"Yes!" Qiqi nodded proudly, "I also healed Brother Jiu's leg!"
"Heal Xiao Jiu's leg?" Huo Yuwei's heart jumped. "What happened to Xiao Jiu's leg?"
"Little Nine's leg is a lingering injury from the car accident, and someone has also cast a curse on it, making him lame!"
"What happened? How could there be a car accident?"
"Well... it's a long story!" Qiqi reached out and wrapped her arms around Huo Yuwei's neck, pressing her face against his and rubbing it against his. "Big brother, so many things have happened in your family these past few years while you were away on missions!"
***
On the way home, Qiqi told Huo Yuwei everything that had happened to the Huo family over the years.
Huo Yuwei clenched his fists at his sides, his eyes bloodshot with rage.
"How could this be? How could this happen!"
Mom and Dad, and seven younger siblings...
"Big brother, concentrate!"
Seeing that Huo Yuwei was not in a good state, Qiqi quickly pinched his brow with her fingers to help him calm down.
"Big brother, what's done is done, no one can undo it, and it's not any of your faults." Qiqi comforted him like a little adult, "Uncle, aunt, and the other brothers and sisters have all been reincarnated."
"Moreover, because they are all good people, their families in the next life are all harmonious and happy."
Hearing this, Huo Yuwei finally felt a little better.
After a long pause, she choked up and said, "Thank you, Qiqi."
You're welcome!
"Let's go, I'll take you home!"
Originally, he wanted to return to his unit first to report on his mission.
But now, he must go home first to see his grandmother and Xiao Jiu.
He had to apologize to his grandmother!
Over the years, she has single-handedly supported the Huo family.
Half an hour later, Huo Yuwei stood outside the Huo family villa, holding Qiqi in his arms.
The maid opened the door, paused for a moment when she saw Huo Yuwei, then burst into tears of joy, "Young Master? It really is Young Master! That's wonderful, Young Master, you're not dead, you're back!"
"Uncle Sun!" Huo Yuwei's voice choked with emotion, "Thank you for your hard work!"
As Uncle Sun opened the door, he shouted into the room, "Quick, quick, inform the old lady that the eldest young master is back! The eldest young master is back!"
Huo Yuwei carried Qiqi inside, when suddenly a large group of people came out.
The person in the lead was an elderly woman wearing a black silk cheongsam; who else could it be but Madam Huo?
Old Madam Huo walked hurriedly, leaning on her cane. When she saw Huo Yuwei holding Qiqi in the distance, her eyes welled up with tears.
"Oh my, Grandma's darling, you're finally back!"
