Chapter 25: Devil 2
◎It’s over, the Immortal Master is going to be killed! ◎
Of course, these are all legends Zhou Lin heard while wandering around.
Yan Yue had no idea whether the ghost demon was really that powerful, and whether there were the Five Ghost Emperors, the Ten Kings of Hell, the Six Case Officials, and the Ten Yin Marshals in the world, and Zhou Lin had never actually seen one.
But the evil ghost before him actually appeared.
Yan Yue has never seen an evil ghost. Previously, Liu Jie almost turned into a demon, but she patted him to regain his sanity and he did not actually transform. She was quite curious about what evil ghosts looked like and what caused them to become evil ghosts.
While following the evil ghost, Yan Yue learned the identity of the evil ghost from Zhou Lin.
No one knew where the woman came from, and she had never been betrothed because she had a large black birthmark on her face. On weekdays, he would carry a shoulder pole to the market to sell his steamed sugar buns and baked sugar cakes.
Her sugar buns were white, plump and soft, and her baked sugar cakes were also sweet and delicious. Zhou Lin liked them very much, so he would always buy some when he saw them when he was young.
Zhou Lin said that she was a very shy woman who always covered the half of her face with the birthmark with a headscarf and spoke in a soft voice for fear of scaring others.
He didn't understand why such a gentle woman would turn into an evil ghost? What has happened to her in recent years?
Although Zhou Lin wanted to find out more, he was worried that the evil ghost would hurt people and might hurt Yan Yue.
I wanted to dissuade him, but Yan Yue was very interested and was eager to go and watch the fun. Thinking about how Liu Jie was injured the last time she touched him, she thought it probably wouldn't be too dangerous, so she let her go.
The two followed him all the way to the gate of a magnificent mansion. On the plaque was written two large characters: "Feng Mansion".
Yan Yue Zhou Lin asked: "Isn't Qi Zhaoyang entrusted by the Feng family to exorcise evil spirits?"
Zhou Lin frowned: "Then she is the one who was eliminated?"
The gate of Feng Mansion was closed, and Yan Yue was allowed in only after he claimed to be Master Qi's assistant.
Everything was normal in the front yard, but there seemed to be a wind in the back yard, and the whistling sound was terrifying. The doorman pointed at the moon-shaped door tremblingly and said, "I can only send the girl here! Master Qi has ordered that no one is allowed to enter the backyard!"
The doorman abandoned her and ran away. Yan Yue suppressed her inner fear, hid behind Zhou Lin, and walked into the Moon Gate quietly.
Only after stepping into the Moon Gate did Yan Yue hear clearly that it was not the sound of the wind, but the evil ghost's shrill screams!
There was an altar in the middle of the yard, behind which stood two elegantly dressed men and women, tightly guarding a child in the middle who was about eight years old.
Qi Zhaoyang was standing in front of the altar, holding his sword high and muttering something.
The evil ghost was standing not far in front of him, as if trapped by invisible ropes, and was screaming like a ghost or a wolf.
Yan Yue was shocked, thinking, "Don't beat him to death like this!"
"Qi Zhaoyang! Wait!"
Qi Zhaoyang suddenly heard Yan Yue's voice and opened his eyes abruptly, only to see her running straight towards him, messing up the formation he had set up with her feet!
The evil ghost was no longer restrained and instantly jumped up.
Qi Zhaoyang didn't care about anything else. He pulled Yan Yue behind him, and slashed the long sword from the palm of his hand. The blood-stained long sword emitted a faint glow and stabbed straight at the female ghost!
The female ghost floated backwards to avoid Qi Zhaoyang's attack, and the man and the ghost started fighting.
Yan Yue was so anxious that she kept jumping up and down: "Hey, stop fighting, let's talk it over nicely!"
Her noise alerted the female ghost, and she suddenly changed direction and attacked her!
Yan Yue stepped back in shock, "I'm here to help you!"
"There's no point in reasoning with a demon!"
Qi Zhaoyang rushed to Yan Yue’s side in time and stabbed with his sword!
"Don't!"
Yan Yue saw that the sword was about to pierce the female ghost, and in a hurry she stretched out her arm to block it. The sword changed direction as she raised it, and missed the target, but her arm was also pierced by Qi Zhaoyang's sword, and blood gushed out!
"Yan Yue!"
Qi Zhaoyang quickly withdrew his sword, but the female ghost took the opportunity to make her five fingers into claws and attacked his throat!
Yan Yue endured the great pain and stood in front of Qi Zhaoyang, but was slapped on the shoulder by the female ghost with such force that the two of them were pushed down!
"Ms. Moon!"
Zhou Lin's scream and the female ghost's shrill scream rang out at the same time.
Yan Yue fell on Qi Zhaoyang, and a drop of blood from her arm flew directly into Qi Zhaoyang's eyes due to the impact.
Qi Zhaoyang only felt a piercing pain in his left eye, as if someone had put a piece of burning charcoal in his eye, and he could not help but scream in pain.
"Qi Zhaoyang!"
Yan Yue saw Qi Zhaoyang covering his left eye with a look of unbearable pain, and didn't know what had happened.
However, after black smoke came out of the female ghost's palm, her expression became even more angry and she attacked again!
"Stop!" Zhou Lin came over without hesitation and stood in front of Yan Yue. But the ghost was of a lower level than the evil ghost and was no match for the ghost. He was blown away by the female ghost with just one claw.
In front of Yan Yue was the painful Qi Zhaoyang. Turning back, she saw Zhou Lin thrown five meters away. She was so angry that she yelled at the female ghost, "Be quiet!"
The female ghost suddenly felt her body sink and she fell to her knees, looking at Yan Yue in astonishment.
Yan Yue didn't care about her at all, because Qi Zhaoyang was rolling on the ground in pain!
"Qi Zhaoyang? Qi Zhaoyang, what's wrong with you? Don't scare me! Where are you injured? Where does it hurt?"
Qi Zhaoyang was in so much pain that he could not hear any sound at all. The burning pain in his eyes was like red-hot iron slurry, spreading from his left eye to his entire body, rolling through every meridian in his limbs!
It was no longer a burning pain, but a feeling that my whole body was burning from the inside out!
He just felt that his whole body was on fire, and his flesh, blood, and meridians had all become fuel, burning every inch of his spirit and will!
Yan Yue felt that Qi Zhaoyang's body was burning hot, like a fireball! He quickly shouted to the couple, "Quick! Send someone to bring some water!"
The couple didn't dare to move at all and said, "Immortal, the Immortal Master said that no one can come in..."
"Why are you not letting me go? Someone's going to die!" Yan Yue said angrily. However, she saw the female ghost slip away out of the corner of her eye. She could only say angrily, "The evil ghost has already escaped! Go get a doctor!"
"Oh oh!" The couple, one of them carried the sleeping child into the house, and the other asked the servant to bring some water.
Qi Zhaoyang's whole body was so scalded that he could hardly be touched. Yan Yue took the water and poured it directly on him. She didn't know if it was an illusion, but she actually felt white smoke coming out of Qi Zhaoyang's body?
The temperature improved slightly, but it only took a moment before it rose again.
This was not a solution, Yan Yue asked anxiously: "Is there a well in the mansion?"
The Feng family master quickly pointed in a direction and said, "Over there, there is a pond!"
Yan Yue hurriedly carried Qi Zhaoyang over with the Feng family servants, tied a rope under his armpits, and lowered him into the pond.
She sat by the pond, panting, and finally breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Qi Zhaoyang's expression, which was trying hard to endure, relax.
Zhou Lin squatted beside Yan Yue, rubbing his arm.
Yan Yue asked: "Are you okay?"
Zhou Lin took his hand back and said, "It's okay! I just didn't expect that a woman like her would be so strong." He looked at Qi Zhaoyang and asked, "What happened to him?"
Yan Yue said: "How should I know? He is like a burning ball of fire! Is he possessed by a ghost?"
Zhou Lin floated out, circling around Qi Zhaoyang, "No way! The evil ghost never touched him at all!"
Yan Yue asked again: "Could it be that I interrupted him and he failed, and was attacked by some secret technique?"
Zhou Lin was confused and asked, "Is there such a saying? Why haven't I heard of it?"
Yan Yue shrugged and said, "I also heard this from the storyteller in the teahouse."
As the two were chatting, Mr. Feng came hurriedly with his doctor.
The doctor wanted to feel Qi Zhaoyang's pulse, but was shocked by his body temperature! "This person is still alive? How can a living person have such a temperature? I'm afraid he's cooked."
Yan Yue didn't like what he said: "What nonsense are you talking about? Isn't he still breathing? If you haven't seen it, it means you are ignorant. How can you doubt that he is going to die?"
The doctor looked at the two fish floating beside Qi Zhaoyang with their bellies turned upside down and thought: Aren’t these fish cooked?
Mr. Feng said, "Master Qi is a cultivator, so it is naturally not something that ordinary people like us can understand. Please treat the fairy's injury first!"
The doctor could not hide his displeasure, and bandaged Yan Yue's arm in silence. He claimed that he was not capable of treating a hermit, and left with his medicine box.
Master Feng asked Yan Yue tentatively, "Is Master Qi Xianshi all right?"
Yan Yuexin said: The doctor doesn’t know, and you ask me? He could only perfunctorily say, "I'm afraid the Immortal Master can't leave this pool for a while. I'll have to bother you until his body temperature drops."
"No problem, no problem! If you need anything, just tell me!"
Mr. Feng was really afraid that Qi Zhaoyang would die here with him. What would he say if people from Qingxu Temple came to ask about it? It's really a bad year. The evil ghost has not been eliminated yet, and the immortal master of Qingxu Temple has suddenly met with a disaster and his life or death is uncertain.
"May I ask the fairy lady, if that evil ghost comes again..."
Yan Yue had no confidence that he could subdue the evil spirit. Fortunately, when the evil ghost pushed her today, she didn't feel anything except a little force, and the evil ghost was injured instead. Although she had no confidence in being able to control the ghost, she could at least keep them safe, so she said, "I am here."
"Yes, yes, yes! Thank you very much, Fairy! Thank you very much, Fairy!"
Master Feng was very grateful and asked the servants to bring a recliner and blanket so that Yan Yue could watch over Qi Zhaoyang by the pond.
Yan Yue fell asleep while waiting, and when she opened her eyes again it was already daybreak.
She sat up suddenly and was surprised to find that there were dozens of fish floating belly up in the pond!
She quickly touched Qi Zhaoyang and exclaimed, "Oh my God! Why is it cold again?!"
The servants hurriedly pulled Qi Zhaoyang out, changed him into clean clothes, and sent him to a tidy guest room.
When Yan Yue entered the room, Qi Zhaoyang looked like he was asleep. If it weren't for the hand that was exposed from the quilt and was wrinkled by water, the picture would have been perfect!
The Feng family invited another doctor, who took the patient's pulse again and again but could not tell what was wrong. He just said that the patient might have caught a cold and asked them to take good care of himself.
Mr. Feng and Yan Yue both breathed a sigh of relief.
Mr. Feng was thankful that Master Qi was finally safe. Yan Yue was cursing inwardly, thinking that the guy last night was indeed ignorant. Isn't this just a fever? It's just a little bit higher than the average human temperature! She was so frightened that she lost her mind and thought she had accidentally killed Qi Zhaoyang!
Qi Zhaoyang was fine. Yan Yue finally came to her senses and asked about the Feng family.
Mr. Feng said that their youngest son Feng Jian suddenly started to have a high fever, convulsions, and cried all day long half a month ago. Not only did he cry himself to sleep and wake up from crying, he couldn't even eat. In just half a month, he lost a lot of weight!
They saw many doctors and visited temples, but their condition did not improve. Hearing that the Zheng family had invited the immortal master from Qingxu Temple, he asked the Zheng family to introduce Master Qi to him.
After a few days of inspection, Master Qi said that there was an evil ghost causing trouble, so he drew talismans and set up formations in an attempt to drive away the evil spirit.
Three days ago, we were close to catching the evil ghost.
But the evil ghost was so vicious that it frightened the little boy Feng Jian so much that he overturned the altar, interrupting the ritual and causing the evil ghost to flee.
Yesterday was the second time they caught ghosts. They gave Feng Jian some tranquilizing medicine and coaxed him to sleep, but an accident still happened.
