Five million?!
When the amount came out, everyone was shocked.
After all, there is no first in literature and no second in martial arts, but in the field of Feng Shui and metaphysics, one million is indeed not a low amount.
If it multiplies five times...
"Little girl, can you make the decision on this matter?" The Taoist priest asked to confirm.
Zhu Jing on the side was still a little hesitant. After all, her husband's family were all educators and they never liked superstitious things. Now they had no choice but to invite so many people.
"I……"
Just as she was about to speak, Miao Lanying pulled her hand.
The latter shook his head slightly at her and gave her a firm look.
Zhu Jing swallowed the words that were on the tip of her tongue, and finally nodded slowly and said, "Well, five million. As long as it can save my son, I will write a check immediately."
She didn't believe Ye Lan, but believed her best friend.
The group of people who were originally noisy in the living room said they wanted to stay and participate in this matter after a few seconds of silence.
"The marriage certificate says that the ghost bride will come to our house in three days. Don't we have to wait here for three days?" The Taoist priest was a little dissatisfied. In fact, he also felt that this room was filled with gloomy air and was uncomfortable. He was a little scared.
The rest of the people had similar ideas.
At this time, Ye Lanxin walked into the house and said as he walked in, "It won't take three days. Let's solve it now."
ah?
Now? !
Everyone was confused and thought she was joking, but they saw that the girl was already walking up the stairs to the second floor. They didn't want to be left behind, so they all got up and chased after her.
"Xiao Jing, is this the master you invited back?" Chen Maoyuan also stood up from the sofa, walked to his wife, and asked with a serious face, "Is she an adult?"
Hearing this, Zhu Jing subconsciously avoided the other person's sight and whispered, "I don't know, but Yinglan said she is very powerful. She told me about Xiaozhe the first time she saw me. She seems very powerful."
She knew her husband had an occupational disease and was very traditional.
As expected, after all this talk, Chen Maoyuan still frowned, disapprovingly saying, "You should act according to your age. This kid can't even fulfill his duties as a student, so how can he accomplish anything great? Hey, I'll go up and take a look. I'll send him back later. Don't be so reckless next time."
After saying that, he turned around and strode upstairs.
Zhu Jing had no chance to get a word in, so she could only follow her friend up to the second floor.
Then Ye Lan led a group of nuns, Taoist priests and spirit mediums to the door of a room.
Chen Maoyuan was slightly stunned when he saw this.
"Hey, we must have come to the wrong place. When I came to see him yesterday, the young master of the Chen family was not in this room." The Taoist priest behind him reminded him, "He's over there."
Ye Lan did not move. He raised his hand and grasped the door handle. With a click, the entire door lock was removed on the spot.
Everyone: “!!!”
Damn, what kind of strength is this!
Just as everyone was shocked, Ye Lan had already pushed open the door and walked in.
Chen Maoyuan finally realized what was happening and hurriedly chased after him, saying, "I was worried that Xiaozhe wouldn't sleep well yesterday, so I temporarily changed his room. He finally fell asleep this morning. You guys shouldn't..."
Before he could finish the word "too loud", he saw the scene inside the house. His voice was choked in his throat and he opened his mouth in horror, "Xiaozhe!"
The scream seemed to wake up a person who was immersed in a nightmare. The boy who was standing on a stool and putting the rope around his neck opened his eyes hazily. After seeing what he was doing, he leaned back in fear and fell off the chair.
Bang.
Zhu Jing, who came in a few steps later, saw her son almost committing suicide in his sleep, and immediately broke down and cried.
"Xiaozhe, are you okay? Let mommy take a look. Was it that ghost bride who asked you to do this?"
She ran over and hugged her son, her fingers still trembling.
The young man, who had just walked through the gates of hell, was also terrified. After calming down for a while, he finally spoke: "I stayed up all night last night, and when the sun came up in the morning, I couldn't bear it anymore. My dad said the room here would be darker, so I came here. I did sleep quite well at first, but just now I heard her voice again..."
When he mentioned 'her', the boy's voice trembled and there was visible fear on his face.
"She said she missed me and wanted me to go downstairs to accompany her early, and then... I heard my father's voice, and when I woke up I found myself standing up there."
After narrating all this, the atmosphere in the room became a little more eerie.
The Taoist priests and the others spoke up, shaking their heads, saying, "The wronged spirit is seeking revenge. It seems we're here to exorcise the evil spirit, but the evil spirit is afraid we'll ruin her plans, so she's taking action ahead of time. She still dares to act with us here, truly lawless. Let's eliminate the evil spirit in the house and rid your young master of the disaster."
Chen Maoyuan was a little confused by this. He originally thought that these people were unreliable, but now he was willing to call them masters. "Please save my son. If you succeed, I will give you another million."
Add one more million, that’s six million!
This number immediately filled everyone with enthusiasm. They started spreading salt in the house, jumping rope, and busying themselves inside and outside the house.
"Sister Juan, please bring in a glass of water for Xiaozhe." Seeing that there was nothing else to do for the time being, Chen Maoyuan shouted outside the door.
Soon a woman in a white maid's uniform came in with a tray.
"Come, Master, drink some water and have some snacks to fill your stomach."
The woman personally fed the boy water and persuaded him to eat.
Unfortunately, after so many shocks, the boy had no appetite.
"How can this be done? If you keep dragging it on, your body will collapse." The woman looked at Chen Maoyuan anxiously.
Chen Maoyuan didn't look at her, but looked up at his wife Zhu Jing, patted her hands and comforted her: "Xiao Jing, don't be sad, the Heavenly Masters will find a way."
"Hmm..." Zhu Jing choked up and grabbed her husband's hand. The tears finally stopped. She helped her son onto the bed and stayed by his side. "Sister Juan, you can go and do your work. I'll just look after Xiaozhe here. You've been taking care of Xiaozhe for the past few days, thank you for your hard work."
"This is what I should do, ma'am. I'll go down first." Sister Juan shook her head with the tray and went out obediently.
However, just as she was about to step out of the door, a hand suddenly stopped her.
"Hmm?" Sister Juan was slightly startled. She turned her head and saw the beautiful girl leaning against the door. She said gently, "Excuse me, young lady, is there anything I can do for you?"
"I'm thirsty." Ye Lan stretched out her hand and pointed at the cup on her tray, "I want to drink some water."
Sister Juan suddenly realized, "Then I'll get it for you right away."
"No need." Ye Lan's hands did not move at all, and his eyebrows and eyes said calmly: "Just drink the cup in your hand."
"This..." Sister Juan was stunned and subconsciously put the tray back in her arms. "This is what the young master just drank. It's not clean. I'd better go and pour you another cup. It's not a big deal."
As she spoke, she was about to squeeze out of the door.
At this time, Ye Lan said in a cold tone: "If you spilled the water on purpose, then I will consider you the murderer."
