Jiang Zhan's words made Madam Feng furious, but with Fairy Liu present, she suppressed her anger and glared at Jiang Ancheng fiercely.
Jiang Ancheng touched his nose.
It's none of his business. He doesn't know the unlucky kid.
"Fairy, please start." Old Madam Feng said in a deep voice.
Fairy Liu nodded, glanced at the kettle, and began to walk around the incense table with her eyes closed.
Everyone concentrated and held their breath, and only heard the vague words coming from Liu Xiangu's mouth and the sound of wind blowing through the toon leaves in the corner of the wall.
Fairy Liu walked around the incense table again and again.
She was wearing a wide coat today, the corners of which fluttered as she walked. Her seemingly chaotic steps revealed a certain rhythm that made people feel a little solemn.
Jiang Zhan quietly pulled Jiang Si and said, "This witch is making me dizzy. Fourth sister, are you okay?"
Because the young people were all standing together, Jiang Cang and others looked over as soon as Jiang Zhan finished speaking.
"I'm fine." Jiang Si curled the corner of his mouth, and suddenly he had the urge to beat his brother up.
Suddenly, a loud shout was heard, followed by a series of crisp ringing sounds, which attracted everyone's attention.
Jiang Si took the opportunity to step on Jiang Zhan and said angrily, "Second brother, can't you stay quiet?"
"People are not allowed to speak." Jiang Zhan muttered.
"Because quiet beautiful boys are more likable."
"Ahem." Jiang Zhan put his fist to his lips and coughed, his tone deep, "Fourth sister, you don't know, I'm actually a person who values words like gold."
"Ah——" Suddenly a cry of surprise rang out.
Jiang Si no longer paid attention to Jiang Zhan and looked at the fairy Liu who was performing the ritual.
I don't know when the incense had been inserted into the incense table. Along with the sound of bells that sometimes sounded fast and sometimes slow, the white smoke above the burning incense suddenly turned into black smoke.
How come the white smoke changed color?
The bell in Liu Xiangu's hand rang more urgently. The rapid ringing sound and the black incense made everyone subconsciously nervous.
At this moment, the ringing stopped abruptly.
Everyone's heart seemed to skip a beat.
"Look——" Jiang Qiao said in a lost voice, pointing forward.
The black smoke above the offering burner on the long incense table seemed to have life, condensing into a beam and slanting in a certain direction.
That direction was exactly where Jiang Si and others were.
A shadow suddenly rose over the hearts of the young people standing here.
No one is stupid. The black smoke pointing in their direction is definitely not a good sign.
Jiang Si nodded secretly.
I have to say that Fairy Liu is quite capable.
Fairy Liu held the bell and looked at Old Madam Feng.
Madam Feng understood and said in a deep voice, "There are no outsiders here at the moment, so please feel free to speak your mind."
Liu Xiangu's lips trembled slightly: "Old Madam, the evil spirit that harms people is attached to one of these people!"
Except for Jiang Si, who had no expression on his face, everyone else looked stunned. Jiang Zhan couldn't help but yelled, "Stop talking nonsense!"
Among all the grandchildren, Jiang Zhan has the most straightforward personality, and therefore has never been liked by Old Madam Feng.
"Shut up!" Old Madam Feng wanted to kick Jiang Zhan out.
"Just shut up, this is ridiculous." Feeling that Jiang Si had gently pulled him, Jiang Zhan muttered to himself and stopped talking.
Old Madam Feng swept her deep gaze over Jiang Si and the others, and stayed on Jiang Qian for a moment.
Jiang Qian was so sensitive at this moment that she felt her face getting hot and she even felt that the way people looked at her had changed.
Don’t panic!
Jiang Qian took a deep breath.
Given that dream, it was normal for her grandmother to be suspicious of her.
Jiang Qian tilted her head slightly and looked at Xiao, who nodded slightly at her.
Jiang Qian felt relieved and looked calm.
Liu Xiangu was invited back by my mother. My mother had arranged everything for her. Once Liu Xiangu pointed out Jiang Zhan, she had nothing to do.
Jiang Qian turned her eyes to Jiang Zhan, and the disdain on his face made her secretly laugh.
She couldn't wait to see Jiang Zhan's expression when he found out that he was the culprit.
It must be exciting.
"Can you point out who the evil spirit is possessed by?" Old Madam Feng asked word by word.
No matter who this person is, even if it is her beloved granddaughter Jiang Qian, she can't tolerate it!
Fairy Liu walked slowly up to Jiang Si and the others, her eyes scanning everyone's faces one by one. Everyone who was scanned by her became nervous, especially the timid Fifth Miss Jiang Li, who couldn't help but tremble all over. Her frail body was like a dead leaf hanging on a branch in the autumn wind.
"In order to confirm who the evil spirit is possessed by, I need to ask a few young men and women to step forward individually, and let me cast a spell to verify one by one." Liu Xiangu said with the attitude of a hermit.
"Please cast your spell, Fairy. We must find out and eliminate the evil spirit no matter what!" Old Lady Feng said in an unquestionable tone.
"I'm sorry for the inconvenience." Fairy Liu bowed to Jiang Si and others.
Her salute happened to be aimed at Jiang Si, but naturally no one noticed it at this time.
Jiang Si looked at Liu Xiangu with some curiosity.
That day, she and Liu Xiangu only reached an agreement. What she wanted was for Jiang Qian to suffer bad luck. As for the process, she didn't understand the art of playing tricks, so she didn't get involved and left it to the professional fortune teller.
What will Xiangu Liu do now to point out Jiang Qian?
While Jiang Si was thinking, Liu Xiangu raised the bell in her hand.
The bell was made of copper, and judging from its color, it was quite old. The ancient patterns on the bell exuded a mysterious aura.
Fairy Liu rang the bell in her hand, and a clear ringing sound immediately rang out.
In the spacious courtyard, the only sound was the sound of the bells, except for the sound of the wind blowing the leaves.
Liu Xiangu took her hand back and looked at the bell lovingly: "I wonder if the old lady has heard that there is a kind of bell that is meant to be rung for living people to hear. If it encounters a ghost, evil spirit or other evil thing, it will not make any sound."
Old Madam Feng nodded slowly: "That's what the old saying says."
Liu Xiangu smiled and said, "My bell is that kind of bell, called the Soul-Fixing Bell."
As soon as the three words "Soul-Fixing Bell" came out, a gust of wind blew by, and goose bumps instantly appeared on everyone's exposed skin.
"Then I'll start." Liu Xiangu pointed at the fifth girl, Jiang Li, who was standing at the outermost side, and said, "Let's start with this girl."
Jiang Li's face turned pale instantly. She didn't dare to say a word in front of everyone and moved step by step to the front of Liu Xiangu.
Fairy Liu raised her hand, and the bell shook lightly in front of Jiang Li's eyebrows, and a clear ring tone immediately rang out.
Jiang Li breathed a sigh of relief and took two steps back in exhaustion.
Fairy Liu walked past Jiang Li and went to the next person.
The bell rang from time to time, and soon it was Jiang Zhan's turn.
Jiang Zhan said unhappily, "Please hurry up."
The bells began to ring.
Jingle Bells——
Fairy Liu walked past Jiang Zhan with a calm expression.
Jiang Qian couldn't hide her surprise and looked at Xiao.
Xiao showed the same expression.
The mother and daughter looked at each other hurriedly, and before they had time to think more, Fairy Liu had already come in front of Jiang Qian, raised the bell and shook it gently.
At that moment, the world was silent and the bell did not ring.
