Xiao Cunyu obediently went home and knelt in the ancestral hall. The next morning, Li Chu was secretly watching outside the Pan family.
He thought he would have to wait a long time, but at noon that day, Pan Mingtai ran out of the house in a particularly embarrassed manner, almost running away with his head in his hands, waving his hands constantly and saying, "Don't kill me, don't kill me..." The neighbors all saw it.
Pan's mother chased him out and wanted to take him back, but he resisted fiercely and pushed Pan's mother away and ran away in a short while.
Pan's mother burst into tears.
My son was normal when he came home yesterday, but when he went to bed at night, he started screaming!
I don’t know what he saw, but he always said that someone in the house was staring at him.
I couldn't sleep all night, and when I finally closed my eyes in the morning, I was woken up by a nightmare, and then I looked like this...
Pan's mother immediately paid someone to help bring her son back, and also asked a Taoist priest to perform a ritual.
However, it was of no use.
Not only that, the news that Pan's father was a murderer also spread, and the neighbors' eyes on their family changed. No one suspected Pan Mingtai at first, but one day, Pan Mingtai shouted and screamed, and sometimes when he went crazy he would mention those beggars. Everyone began to suspect that he was the real murderer.
But Pan Mingtai himself would not admit it, so even if the neighbors were dissatisfied, they could not arrest him.
Li Chu watched helplessly as a good man turned into a madman.
After Pan's father was arrested, the two sons-in-law of the Pan family came to the house and almost broke into the house. It didn't take long before they drove Pan Mingtai and his wife out.
Pan Mingtai's wife was also very afraid of her murderous husband. After driving him out, she immediately hid herself and did not dare to show up for fear that she would be killed. Pan's mother wanted to save her son, but her daughter and son-in-law did not let her get close to Pan Mingtai on the grounds of filial piety and fear that she would be harmed by Pan Mingtai.
This man soon ended up on the streets.
In just a few days, he almost looked like a beggar.
Li Chu found Xiao Cunyu again and asked in confusion, "Didn't you promise Father Pan that you wouldn't use magic anymore?"
"I didn't?" Xiao Cunyu said with a playful smile, "He was just in poor health, with a deficiency of yang and excess of yin, so he got possessed by evil spirits. What does it have to do with me?"
"But he always has nightmares, just like that day..." Li Chu asked suspiciously.
"It's just his subconscious mind. Under normal circumstances, I would give the guest talisman paper to calm his soul and ensure his safety, but for someone like him... I can't bear to do that, so let him be." Xiao Cunyu said indifferently.
Li Chu turned pale with fright.
Xiao Cunyu's ability is really terrifying. He can make a person... crazy so easily?
Moreover, he seemed to be very hard-hearted and had no reaction at all when he harmed others!
Xiao Cunyu knew what he was thinking from the trembling look in his eyes, and said with a smile, "Don't worry, this kind of thing will damage your virtue. I don't want to die. I had some karma that day before I dared to do that. Now he's getting this retribution, it's all his own fault. As for his father...you don't have to feel sorry for him. His father has been escorting for so many years, and his hands are not clean. He deserves to be sentenced. Besides, he knew very well how those beggars died, and he helped hide the murder weapon. According to the law, he is also an accomplice. Even if he doesn't die, he will be exiled."
"I, I don't sympathize with him..." Li Chu said quickly, and now he was as obedient as a rabbit.
"Behave yourself after you return to the academy. Do you know what you have to do from now on?" Xiao Cunyu looked at him, "If you don't do what you promised me..."
