Gu Xuan's eyes darkened, and he waved his hand to gather the evil spirit and open the talisman paper. Then more talismans flew over. Gu Xuan retreated at the speed of light and stood behind Qi Jing.
Qi Jing only felt a gust of wind blowing past him, and then there was no one around him.
He frowned, stood in front of him with one hand and made a hand gesture, and all the talismans fell. He turned around and asked, "Are you selling me out like this?!"
"You think I'm you? I have nothing on me. The evil spirit is still in that copper coin." Gu Xuan rolled his eyes at him and poked his waist with his hand, "Don't hesitate, come on!"
Qi Jing was pushed forward and grumbled unconvincedly, "You can't hide behind me, are you still a man?"
"I may not be a human, so why should I care whether he is a man or not!" Gu Xuanyi pushed his back, "Or do you want me to be knocked unconscious by the talisman so that he can come out?"
Qi Jing is speechless, and Gu Zhou's turn will only hinder him even more. It's heartbreaking.
When he came upstairs, Qi Jing saw the source of the evil spirit at a glance. It was not very heavy, but very scattered.
It looked like it was pieced together. Qi Jing took small steps over and just as he reached the door, the wooden door opened. An old lady with wrinkles all over her face and gray hair appeared in front of him with a strange smile on her lips.
"ah!"
Qi Jing was frightened and raised his hand and punched the old lady directly in the face.
The old lady then let out a scream and fell backwards, but the voice was not that of an old woman, but that of a young woman.
Qi Jing glanced back suspiciously, "What is this?"
"It's obviously a person!" Gu Xuanyi answered seriously and gave his evaluation, "Entry-level Taoism, one-punch knockout."
"KO?" Qi Jing tilted his head. "Where did you learn that weird word?"
Gu Xuanyi patted him on the head sympathetically and said, "You still have a lot to learn."
Qi Jing slapped it away in disdain, "You're relying on the fact that you and Gu Zhou can communicate with each other to feel superior to me."
Gu Xuan raised an eyebrow and said, "Stop talking nonsense and go in quickly."
Qi Jing snorted and turned to walk into the room. The old lady who was knocked down by him also got up. Her white hair hood had fallen off, revealing her black hair.
Qi Jing and Gu Xuanyi stood blocking the door, their two pairs of eyes examining the person opposite them.
Qi Jing said, "Take off your face, or I'll beat you again!"
The person shuddered with fear, but took it off reluctantly. She was a young and beautiful woman, but her face was too pale.
The woman wiped her bleeding nose silently, avoiding the gazes of the two people opposite her.
Qi Jing saw the woman's face clearly at a glance and it was hard to describe.
Gu Xuanyi put his hand on his shoulder and raised his chin slightly, "What's going on?"
"Can't you see for yourself?" Qi Jing glared at him. Even without the talisman paper props, the eyes were still there.
Gu Xuan said confidently, "You've already seen it, so why should I look at it? Why don't I just listen to you?"
"Why? I'm not your little brother!"
Gu Xuanyi didn't waste any words and directly took out two bills.
Qi Jing, blinded by money, immediately snatched it up and started blabbering, "She was an orphan, adopted by someone. She lived well for the first ten years, but when she was twelve, the person who adopted her died, and she became an orphan and grew up on her own.
She dropped out of high school and started working before graduating. At the age of 19, she found a boyfriend, who was a scumbag. He cheated her out of everything and made her owe a lot of money.
She worked day and night and fainted from overwork. She was diagnosed with a disease that should be curable. However, she had no money to pay off her debts, so this was the only solution.
Oh, and the person who adopted her is the descendant of a Xuanmen disciple. They left behind some secret manuals, and she learned them on her own. She didn't learn to read faces, but she did learn to attract evil spirits. But she's not that bad. Those evil spirits only bring a little bad luck to people, so she can use this skin to remove evil spirits and make money curing illnesses.
The woman opened her eyes wide after hearing Qi Jing's words, "How do you know?"
"I know a lot. I know your name is Yu Duoduo, which means longevity and happiness." Qi Jing collected the money and extended his hand to Yu Duoduo. "Five hundred for fortune-telling. No bargaining."
Yu Duoduo frowned and stepped back. "I don't have any money, and it's not my turn to calculate it. You broke into my house and beat me up. I can sue you!"
"If you sue me, I'll go to Xuanmen and say you're harming people with evil spirits, and I'll arrest you too!" Qi Jing said confidently, "Give me the money for fortune-telling, or I'll sue you."
Yu Duoduo turned around very reluctantly and took out 500 yuan from the drawer and gave it to him, whispering, "You have to rob me even if it's just money to save my life."
"What life-saving money? This is clearly a scam." Qi Jing counted out the five hundred yuan and found it was just right. He continued to hold out his hand, "Give me another five hundred and I'll tell you a fortune."
Yu Duoduo glared at him, "No money!"
Gu Xuan propped his elbow on Qi Jing's shoulder and glared at Yu Duoduo coldly, "Give it to him!"
The two words "Gu Xuanyi" did not express any emotion, but they were inexplicably oppressive. Yu Duoduo did as he was told for no reason and mechanically gave another five hundred to Qi Jing.
Yu Duoduo didn't react until the money was in Qi Jing's hands. She reached out to grab it, but Qi Jing dodged her.
Qi Jing counted the money and said to Wang Duoduo, "You got all this money by deception. It's immoral. Even if you collect enough to treat your illness, it won't work. Instead, you'll lose your life. The best thing to do now is to donate all the money to good causes to offset the immoral things you've done. Otherwise, you'll die."
"Bullshit! I'm not the only one making dirty money, why should I be the only one to suffer the consequences?"
Yu Duoduo almost shouted, and his face became paler due to his excessive excitement.
Qi Jing collected the money and sighed, "Because you are using Xuanmen's Taoist magic to harm others, your Xuanmen ancestors swore an oath that they would never use Taoist magic to harm others. Although you haven't officially joined the Xuanmen, you are still bound by this rule, so if you stop now, you still have a chance of saving yourself."
"Is there any hope?"
Yu Duoduo sneered, "How can I save him? I only have a year left. How can I raise the 500,000 yuan treatment fee?"
Yu Duoduo's smile was very sad. She had never hurt anyone in her life and lived with a clear conscience, but she was deceived and was heavily in debt.
She also believes in fate and believes that she will be rewarded with happiness after suffering, but how does fate treat her?
She just wanted to survive, what's wrong with her!
"He'll pay you!" Qi Jing pointed at Gu Xuanyi, "Don't even mention 500,000, even 5 million will do."
Gu Xuanyi frowned and stared at Qi Jing, "Why should I pay?"
"Just because she's half-Xuanmen, you don't care?"
Gu Xuan turned his face away and said, "No matter what!"
Qi Jing moved his shoulders and shook his arm down. "Do you want to eat the evil spirit she worked so hard to cultivate for nothing?"
"That's not worth five hundred thousand, I won't give it to you!" Gu Xuanyi insisted. After all, he was the ancestor of Xuanmen, so why couldn't Yu Duoduo be showing filial piety to him?
Qi Jing persuaded, "You can lend it to her."
"She can't pay it back."
Qi Jing was speechless for a moment, and glanced at Yu Duoduo out of the corner of his eye. Sure enough, he saw that her pale little face stiffened for a moment, and it seemed that she was hit hard.
