Chapter 39 Chapter 39 Demon Centipede (I)

"Grandpa." Ning Helan placed the soy milk and fried dough sticks on the bedside, "How do you feel today?"

"Oh, basically fine, the doctor said I can be discharged after completing the formalities." Ning Guohua said, he took a few sips of soy milk before remembering to introduce the woman next to him, "This is Miss Liu Ting, she came to see me today."

Ning Helan glanced at Liu Ting indifferently, retracted his gaze and said: "Grandpa, you are not well yet, and you are busy helping others solve problems?"

Ning Guohua took a bite of the fried dough stick and said: "I'm not going, you two go."

"Huh?" Before Ning Helan could answer, Fang Hui spoke first, "Grandpa Ning, What's the matter?"

"Oh, nothing, it's just that Miss Liu can't sleep." Ning Guohua said.

Liu Ting stood up and showed a tired smile to the two of them: "Hello, it's just that I can always hear my ex-husband talking in my ear at night, and it has lasted for more than half a year."

"Your ex-husband?" Ning Helan looked at her.

Liu Ting sighed and said: "He has been dead for five years."

"What you think about during the day, you dream about at night." Ning Helan said, "Miss Liu, if you can't sleep, I think you'd better see a psychiatrist, instead of..."

He glanced at Ning Guohua and didn't dare to finish.

"I've seen a doctor... and I've taken a lot of medicine, but it's useless." Liu Ting sighed, with a worried look in her eyes. "Last time, I invited a Taoist priest to come and see me. He said there was something unclean in the house. After looking everywhere in the house, he gave me a few talismans and asked me to stick them on the head of the bed, but it didn't work at all."

"Xiao Lan, you and Fang go back and take a look. It would be best if you can solve it." Ning Guohua said.

"But the matter of your discharge from the hospital..." Ning Helan's main business today was to pick up his grandfather.

"It's okay. I know the doctors here and I can handle it myself." Ning Guohua turned to look at Liu Ting and smiled kindly, "Miss Liu, my fee here is 1688. Of course, I will only charge you if it works. What do you think?"

Liu Ting nodded: "Master Ning, money is not a problem, as long as it works."

Ning Guohua sighed: "Miss Liu, this is not money. You come to entrust me to help you solve the problem. What I charge is called 'fate'."

Fang Hui secretly complained beside him.

Liu Ting said: "Hey, Master, I know, 1688's 'fate', I understand."

The price is not expensive, but it is definitely not cheap.

Fang Hui whispered in Ning Helan's ear curiously: "What is the charging standard?"

"There is no standard. It depends on grandpa's mood." Ning Helan then sighed and pursed his lips, "Okay, then let's go and take a look."

Fang Hui followed the two of them out of the ward, and suddenly thought of something and walked back. He walked up to Ning Guohua and said mysteriously: "Grandpa Ning, if you don't go, what if some ghost or monster appears, and your precious grandson can't see it, what if the ghost wants to eat me..."

Ning Guohua laughed: "Don't worry, I've seen it, there is no ghost on her. This time it really may be a psychological problem."

"..." Fang Hui smacked his lips. Okay, Ning Pangpang said so, and there is nothing he can do if he doesn't believe it now.

"Two guys, how should I address you?" Liu Ting asked them on the way to the parking lot.

"My last name is Ning, his last name is Fang, you can address me by whatever you want."

Liu Ting looked at the two of them, with worry and doubt in her eyes.

These two people looked to be no more than 20 years old, could they really solve her problems?

But Master Ning was introduced by her friend, who said he was a master hidden in the city, and used to be a Taoist who practiced Taoism. Everyone who had seen him said he was very powerful.

His grandson shouldn't be too bad, right?

Thinking of this, Liu Ting forced a smile: "Then I'll just address you by your names."

Following Liu Ting to drive her car, Fang Hui glanced at it, the car was quite expensive, and it seemed that Liu Ting's family was quite rich.

Soon, Liu Ting drove Ning Helan and Fang Hui to a high-end apartment.

"My home is upstairs, on the thirteenth floor." Liu Ting said, "My husband went on a business trip this morning and will be back in the evening. Now it's just me and my sister at home." They

didn't find anything along the way. Fang Hui didn't see any ghosts or spirits. Ning Helan was yawning from lack of sleep.

After pressing the combination lock, a crisp voice came from the house: "Sister, are you back?"

Along with the voice, a person who looks exactly like Liu Ting came out.

Liu Ting smiled and said, "This is my sister, Liu Yu, we are twins."

Ning Helan narrowed her eyes. Although Liu Yu looked the same as Liu Ting, she gave people a different feeling.

If Liu Ting is dressed exquisitely, then Liu Yu looks very plain, and she would avoid looking at strangers and not meet their eyes.

"Xiao Yu, these are the two young Taoist priests I invited." Liu Ting introduced.

Liu Yu looked at the two of them, pulled Liu Ting aside and whispered, "Sister, I told you not to look for these charlatans. Isn't it enough that you were cheated of more than 3,000 last time? I think it's better for us to find a psychologist."

Liu Ting quickly signaled her to shut up. She looked at Ning Helan embarrassedly, then whispered to Liu Yu, "Don't talk nonsense. This is the grandson of Master Ning, the Taoist priest of Ning, not some charlatan."

Liu Yu obviously didn't believe it, and her eyes were full of suspicion when she looked at Ning Helan and Fang Hui.

If she said she didn't believe it, others might not believe it when they saw the two of them for the first time.

Judging from the way they looked and dressed, Ning Helan looked more like a celebrity model, while Fang Hui looked very white-skinned, like a sickly gigolo kept by a rich woman.

"Excuse me, both of you, please come in." Liu Ting took out shoe covers for the two of them.

"Miss Liu, can I have a look around?" Ning Helan asked.

"Please... look around." Liu Ting said.

Ning Helan looked around the room and then walked towards the bedroom.

The two bedrooms were facing each other, with a corridor more than one meter wide in the middle.

Fang Hui didn't know what he should do now, but he couldn't just stand there, so he pretended to look around in the living room.

When passing by Liu Yu, Fang Hui suddenly saw a faint purple aura surrounding her.

Being stared at by Fang Hui, Liu Yu dodged his gaze, lowered his head and hurried to the side.

Ning Helan went to the bedroom and looked around, but didn't see anything unusual, but from the moment he entered the room, he felt an indescribable smell in the air.

The house was very clean, and the trash cans and waste paper baskets were all filled with newly changed garbage bags.

So where did this smell come from?

It can't be said to be ugly, but it doesn't smell good either.

Fang Hui followed and looked up to see several talisman papers stuck to the head of the bed.

"Here, little Taoist priest, look over there."

Ning Helan followed his line of sight and saw red characters on a yellow background, which was a standard talisman.

But...

he narrowed his eyes, and Fang Hui next to him said: "Is this the kind of talisman that Grandpa Ning drew?"

"No." Ning Helan said.

Fang Hui was a little surprised: "Huh? They all look the same to me."

"People who don't understand it look the same indeed," Ning Helan raised her chin slightly, "Take a close look at what is written on it?"

Fang Hui couldn't enter the house, so he could only stand at the door and try to poke his head inside: "It says... to bring in wealth and treasure... peace and security?"

Ning Helan chuckled: "How can these be written on the talisman... How can such a scribbled talisman be effective? The 'Taoist priest' that Miss Liu met last time is probably a charlatan."

Fang Hui nodded as if he understood: "Hey, little Taoist priest, don't you not believe these?"

"Belief or not is one thing, professionalism is another."

After throwing down a pair of specious words, Ning Helan walked to the living room.

Liu Ting made some tea and asked the two to sit down. Liu Yu leaned against her sister, resting her hands on her legs, secretly looking at the two people in front of her.

Ning Helan didn't care, but Fang Hui felt uncomfortable when she looked at him, and glared back impatiently.
