Her spirit was almost completely consumed by bad luck, and her life force was so weak that only a tiny spark remained. Perhaps she would have to meet the King of Hell in less than three days.
"Even if I die, that's my business. What's it to you? Go, go, go, my hotel doesn't welcome you." Afang's expression was ferocious as she glared at Song Tianshan.
"Senior brother, don't bother with her, just knock her out and get to work." Song Tianshan's junior sister was a little impatient. She had been catching ghosts for half her life and was always praised wherever she went. This was the first time she had encountered someone who didn't take them seriously at all.
Hmph, do they really think they want to meddle in other people's business? They'd be better off using that time to practice their skills instead of catching ghosts. If it weren't for the task assigned to the Qing Sect by their superiors, they wouldn't bother with it at all.
Cultivators in China have their own system. Missions to subdue demons and monsters are generally assigned by the Special Security Bureau, and each sect must complete at least thirty missions each year. This particular mission was assigned this year.
It is said that this mission was initiated by someone who had an accident and went to the Special Security Bureau to file a complaint.
To put it bluntly, they're doing these kinds of tasks for free. It's one thing if the employer doesn't cover the costs, but if they get injured, they'll have to pay for their own medical expenses.
Forget about money, they might even have to pay for their own travel expenses. They were practically offering themselves up for a service, but now, the landlady is not only ungrateful but also trying to kick them out.
Ugh, this is infuriating!
"No, no, let's talk this out. No, don't knock her out, let me talk to her, let me talk to her." Ah Hui, who had followed them in, pulled Ah Fang aside after hearing their purpose: "Ah Fang, since there are kind people here to handle this, don't be stubborn. If the hotel is clean, you can make money, right? You may not be afraid of death, but what about your brother? You have to think about your brother, what will happen to him if you die?"
Ah Hui pleaded earnestly; he genuinely hoped the three Taoist priests would quickly capture the ghost in the hotel. Although it had been haunted for two years without anyone dying, who isn't afraid of ghosts?
In the past, people had asked Afang to hire a Taoist priest to exorcise ghosts, but Afang always made excuses that she didn't have the money and didn't know where to find a Taoist priest... Now that someone has volunteered to come to her door, she should hurry up and get rid of the ghost before the New Year.
Moreover... judging from Afang's reaction, she probably knows who that ghost is.
As if he had just thought of something, Ahui suddenly shuddered and thought with some fear: Could that ghost be Afang's parents?
What happened downstairs is still unknown. Their noise did wake up several demons cultivating upstairs.
Yin Huan rolled over in bed: "What's all that yelling downstairs?"
Hei Xiong said irritably, "Who knows?" Being woken up halfway through cultivation is unbearable even for a demon.
The green python stood up and glanced at the door: "I'll go take a look."
Silver Ring buried her little head under the pillow and waved her hand impatiently: "Go away, go away!"
The green python came and went like the wind, and returned in no time. As soon as he entered the house, he said with a stern face, "Those Taoist priests we met on the mountain have also come. Keep an eye on Silver Ring and don't let them find her."
What a small world! We've only been apart for less than two hours and we've already bumped into each other again.
This is such incredible luck!
Yin Huan looked up, somewhat puzzled, and asked, "Why can't they find me?" Was she really that shameful? Aunt Zhang in the parking lot had said that she was the cutest girl she had ever met.
Since those Taoist priests already knew that the green python was a demon, what was so bad about seeing her?
The green python was speechless: Master, your identity is special. If you show yourself, your identity will be exposed!
Silver Ring: "What are they doing here?"
Green Python: "I overheard someone in the stairwell saying that this hotel is haunted and that they've come to catch the ghost."
Silver Ring's tail twitched: "Ghost, where is it? I can't see it!"
Su Yi chimed in, "There must be a ghost here. We haven't seen it yet because the time hasn't come. When the time comes, it will naturally come out."
Silver Ring tilted her head: "You know?"
Su Yi flicked a wolf's tail: "I used to have an old ghost friend who knew a bit about their habits."
Silver Ring gave a thumbs up: "You're amazing, you can even be friends with ghosts."
The green python interrupted them: "Stop talking nonsense. I'm going down to meet them. You guys keep an eye on Silver Ring." After saying that, he looked at Su Yi and the other two demons, his eyes flashing as they exchanged information in an instant.
Silver Ring's identity must not be revealed. Not only must it not be revealed, but not even the slightest clue can be leaked. Therefore, Silver Ring must be hidden well.
Yin Huan had no idea what the three were wary of. She jumped out of bed and said excitedly, "I want to go too!"
Having lived for three hundred years, she had never seen a ghost. Now that she was also a demon, she should at least see what her kind looked like.
“Those guys just spent three million in one go, they must be rich. Silver Ring, didn’t you want some good food? You wait here, I’ll go get you the money.” Seeing Silver Ring’s eagerness, Black Bear stretched out his leopard paw, transformed into human form, and spoke to divert Silver Ring’s attention.
Silver Ring blinked: "What are you going to do?"
Hei Xiong smirked, "They have plenty of money, we don't. What else can we do? Rob them, of course. They're Taoist priests, we're demons. If we rob them, we'll definitely fight. You're all skin and bones, what if you get hurt? You shouldn't go. I'll go with Qing Mang."
Upon hearing that they were robbing people, and specifically robbing demon slayers, Yin Huan's eyes lit up. She nodded vigorously, "Go quickly, go quickly, and rob them all! Didn't Qing Mang say he wanted to buy a carriage? We don't have much money, so we can buy a carriage with the stolen money."
