With the head of the family having given his word, the rest of the family could only watch helplessly as Ji Xiaoxiao left the Xu residence.
The Zhenguo General's Mansion is not far from the Lu Mansion. The carriage travels slowly, taking only half an hour.
Half an hour later, the golden carriage stopped in front of the Lu residence.
Ji Xiaoxiao lifted the curtain and looked into the distance; the sky above the Lu residence was completely dark.
This is... an overwhelming evil aura?
"Is this Master Xu?" the gatekeeper of the Lu residence asked.
"yes."
"Master Xu, please come in quickly. The master has been waiting for you for a long time."
Even the best horse-drawn carriage is still a horse-drawn carriage; it's ultimately far inferior to modern transportation.
Ji Xiaoxiao got out of the carriage without hesitation and, led by a servant, arrived at the main hall of the Lu residence.
Many people were sitting in the main hall, including Liao Kongmin and Yun Riyue, whom they had met once before.
"My lords, what brings you here as well?" Ji Xiaoxiao asked.
Liao Kongmin bowed and said, "Of course, I've come to admire Master Xu's demeanor."
Ji Xiaoxiao smiled back and then looked at Yun Riyue.
Yun Riyue remained silent, quietly drinking his tea.
Ji Xiaoxiao's smile vanished, and she said expressionlessly to the distraught Lu Jingsheng, "Lord Lu, are you alright?"
Lu Jingsheng was plagued by nightmares for three months, unable to live and afraid to die, and became as thin as a skeleton.
Ji Xiaoxiao became Lu Jingsheng's last lifeline, and Lu Jingsheng wished he could worship her, so how could he dare to offend Ji Xiaoxiao?
Lu Jingsheng was pragmatic, but the young people of the Lu family were hot-blooded and used to being flattered. They glared angrily at Ji Xiaoxiao.
Lu Rantu, Lu Jingsheng's eldest grandson who was most favored, said indignantly, "We invited you here not so that you could curry favor with the powerful and wealthy. If you don't have any real skills, then get out of here!"
The host didn't offer any greetings, but instead greeted the unrelated outsiders first. If it weren't for Ji Xiaoxiao's pathetic skills, Lu Rantu would have torn Ji Xiaoxiao to pieces long ago.
Lu Rantu suddenly stood up, and Ji Xiaoxiao looked at him in surprise. The aura of blood was so strong!
"You must have killed a lot of people." Ji Xiaoxiao looked at Liao Kongmin and Yun Riyue with an unfriendly expression. If an official can't serve the people, he might as well go home and sell sweet potatoes.
“You…” Lu Rantu clenched his fists and jumped up in a rage.
Lu Jingsheng noticed his grandson's mood, coughed lightly, and tapped Lu Rantu.
No matter how unwilling Lu Rantu, as the representative of the young people of the Lu family, was, he could not swallow his anger and had to act like a grandson to Ji Xiaoxiao for the sake of Lu Jingsheng, this cash cow.
Yes, that's a very good realization.
Overjoyed, Ji Xiaoxiao began the exorcism.
"Tell me about what's been going on lately."
Upon hearing this, Lu Jingsheng recounted the details in detail.
Three months ago, Lu Jingsheng was only being devoured by a hundred ghosts in his nightmares. Now, Lu Jingsheng pulled up his trouser leg, and his thighs were covered with teeth marks, vaguely forming a ghost face.
"Master, please save me!" Lu Jingsheng cried, tears streaming down his face.
Having lived most of his life, Lu Jingsheng only suffered in his old age; his heart was filled with bitterness!
Ji Xiaoxiao squatted down and carefully examined the teeth marks on Lu Jingsheng's leg.
"Does it hurt?" Ji Xiaoxiao reached out and poked the slightly hardened thigh flesh.
"It doesn't hurt," Lu Jingsheng replied truthfully.
Ji Xiaoxiao took out the bag tied around her waist and took out a handful of glutinous rice.
"This is... ah...."
Taking advantage of Lu Jingsheng's heightened curiosity, Ji Xiaoxiao applied glutinous rice to the teeth marks on Lu Jingsheng's thigh. The glutinous rice sizzled upon contact with the teeth marks, and a foul stench filled the hall, turning the once white rice instantly black.
Lu Jingsheng was panting heavily, his forehead covered in sweat as if he had just washed his face.
"grandfather."
Lu Rantu shouted and forcefully shoved Ji Xiaoxiao aside, rushing to Lu Jingsheng's side.
"Grandpa, Grandpa, Grandpa..." Lu Rantu kept calling out to Lu Jingsheng.
"Don't worry, he's fine." Ji Xiaoxiao was pushed by Lu Rantu, and her palm was scraped.
"What did you do to my grandfather?" Lu Rantu didn't believe the person who had hurt his grandfather.
Ji Xiaoxiao stood up gracefully and glanced around at the Lu family members.
"Who among you has a wound similar to Lu Jingsheng's?" Ji Xiaoxiao asked gravely.
The members of the Lu family looked at each other, but their feet remained motionless.
"If you step forward now, you still have a chance to live. If you wait too long, even a celestial being wouldn't be able to help you." Ji Xiaoxiao wasn't bluffing.
Nobody wants to die if they can live.
"Me." A boy of eleven or twelve years old standing at the back raised his hand tremblingly.
"Come here." Ji Xiaoxiao beckoned to the boy, who came over. Ji Xiaoxiao asked, "Where is the wound?"
The boy pulled up his sleeve, revealing an arm covered in teeth marks.
"What is this?" The Lu family panicked.
The adults were no match for them, and the children were even more terrified. "Sister, something comes and bites me every night. I'm so scared."
Ji Xiaoxiao was the kindest to children, and after comforting the little boy, she asked, "Who else?"
Once the first person to try something new was identified, many others followed suit.
Ji Xiaoxiao counted, and among the people present, apart from Liao Kongmin, Yun Riyue, herself, and the unmoving Lu Rantu, everyone else had teeth marks.
Seeing Ji Xiaoxiao's expression, Liao Kongmin knew the situation was serious and asked, "Master Xu, what are those teeth marks? And what caused them?"
Ji Xiaoxiao sighed, looking worried, and said, "That's the death mark of the intelligent corpse."
What was originally thought to be a simple matter has now involved intelligent zombies, and Ji Xiaoxiao is in for a lot of trouble.
