Chapter 988: Encountering an Evil Spirit
"There is a family called Cui Shan in the city. According to the description, they have a three-eyed ghost child that has not yet become powerful. The ghost child's yin energy is not strong, so it can only appear at night to scare people for fun. This has caused panic among Cui Shan's family members, and the news has spread around the neighborhood, causing quite a stir."
"That ghost boy is quite smart. Whenever monks come to subdue the demon, he hides away and disappears without a trace."
"Would you please trouble the two benefactors to go and eliminate the ghost child?"
Originally, Master Duan Chen was thinking of sending a disciple there tonight. The three-eyed ghost boy was not a powerful ghost and could be dealt with by any Qi training cultivator who possessed a magic weapon.
The only difficulty is finding it.
Now is a good opportunity, so why not invite Donor Lu and Donor Meng to go.
"It's not difficult."
"Also, it's better if you two make a loud noise when you eliminate the three-eyed ghost boy so that the people around you can see it. Mortals don't understand magic and think that only those who make a huge noise are the strong ones." Master Duan Chen reminded.
"It's not difficult."
…
"Excuse me, is this the home of Mr. Cui?"
The servant opened the door and looked at the two people who didn't look like Buddhists in costume with confusion: "Who are you?"
"My name is Lu Jingzhou, and this is my junior fellow apprentice Meng Yang. We happened to pass by here and heard that there was a ghost haunting Cui Shan's house. We wanted to stay overnight and get rid of the ghost while we were there."
The servant was delighted to hear this. It would be great if these two people could eliminate the ghosts. He was worried all day and every night when he slept.
"Wait for me to report to the master." The servant ran to report to Mr. Cui.
Mr. Cui was a middle-aged man with a big belly. He was naturally very happy when he heard that there were monks willing to come and eliminate ghosts.
After verifying the forged identity credentials of the two people, Mr. Cui politely invited them into the Cui family.
"Two masters, you must eradicate that ghost. My family is so scared that we can't sleep all day and night."
"We should do our best." Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou sat upright drinking tea, their backs straight, one-third of their buttocks sitting on the chairs, acting like masters.
"Dad, look what I bought." A young girl ran into the lobby with a smile on her face. Seeing that there were customers, she stopped running and walked away, asking awkwardly, "Who are these two?"
Cui Shanren glared at the girl, then smiled and introduced: "These two are cultivators from Daxia Wenlu Sect. This one is Master Lu Jingzhou, and this one is Master Mengyang. They are both great cultivators who have reached the half-step Jindan stage."
"Two masters, this is my daughter Cui Que'er."
"It turned out to be Miss Cui."
"Are you from Daxia?" Cui Que'er blinked at the two of them and took out a lamp from behind her.
"You must know this, then?"
"Is this a solar lamp?" Lu Yang thought to himself, how could I not recognize it? I also have a share in it.
"Well, I just bought this from a traveling merchant. It is said that it can light up without lighting a fire."
Lu Yang nodded, showing a clean and chivalrous smile: "Indeed, this thing is quite popular in Daxia, and even many monsters in the Monster Domain are using it. Candles are rare."
"Dad, I'll go back first."
Cui Que'er couldn't wait to go back to the house to try out this magical lamp, so she left in a hurry.
"I'm sorry to have made you two laugh."
"Mr. Cui, that's not right. Miss Cui is playful by nature, which is a good thing."
"By the way, the news we hear from others is not very accurate after all. Mr. Cui, can you tell us about this ghost thing so that we can make some preparations."
When talking about ghosts and monsters, Mr. Cui couldn't stop sighing.
"I don't know how long the ghost has been in my house. Half a month ago, I got up to go to the bathroom. The room was pitch black with only a little moonlight shining in."
"I happened to glance at the bronze mirror hanging on the wall and found that there were actually two figures reflected in it!"
"I turned my head sharply, but saw nothing. When I looked at the bronze mirror again, the other figure in the bronze mirror had also disappeared."
"At the time I just thought it was an illusion and didn't think much about it."
"But then my wife also encountered a strange thing. Ten days ago, she couldn't sleep and wanted to sit in the yard. When she arrived in the yard, she suddenly found a man lying on the wall, craning his neck to look at her. The man had three eyes."
"But this is not the weirdest thing. The weirdest thing is that the wall of our house is three meters high."
"My wife screamed and everyone came out, but the man suddenly disappeared by the wall. When the servant climbed up the wall with a ladder to check, he found two large black handprints on the edge of the wall."
"Since then, people in our family have often seen evil spirits at night. We are so scared that we dare not open our eyes even when we wake up at night, for fear of seeing something we shouldn't see. Please, two masters, save our family from danger!"
Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou looked at each other. According to records, the three-eyed ghost child often appeared in mirrors and on walls. He liked to change into various forms to scare people and feed on fear. They all agreed.
"Don't worry, my good friend. We two brothers are experts in exorcising demons and monsters. We will eradicate this evil spirit tonight and bring peace to your family!"

Cui Shanren was moved by this and stood up and bowed: "Cui thanks the two masters!"
Lu Yang lifted up Mr. Cui's arm and said, "Tonight at midnight, the two of us will perform a ritual in the courtyard. Please clear a space for Mr. Cui."
"I'll send someone to clean up the yard right away."
Mr. Cui quickly asked the servant to clean the courtyard, and it was cleaned up in a short time.
Then Mr. Cui hosted a banquet to entertain the two masters. These two were great cultivators at the half-step golden elixir stage. Any evil spirit could be easily captured by them, right?
As night fell and it was midnight, Mr. Cui was nervously waiting for the result in the room.
Lu Yang inserted swords in the courtyard according to the order of the Eight Trigrams. These were ordinary spiritual swords used to form the Langhuan Sword Formation. The power of this sword formation was average, far inferior to the Immortal-Destroying Sword Formation, but it was quite gorgeous to use.
Meng Jingzhou was pretending to be doing this in the courtyard, but in fact he was releasing a strong energy of qi and blood.
"rise!"
Under the cover of night, Lu Yang shouted loudly, and the sword formation was activated, turning into a green light that enveloped the entire Cui family. Meng Jingzhou's blood and energy turned red, floating in wisps into the sky.
The green and red colors were rampant, illuminating the Cui family's home.
"Ah, the sword energy hurts so much!"
The three-eyed monk emerged from the ground, staring at the sword formation with a fierce look in his eyes: "How dare you, wild monk, interfere in my business!"
The monk had a very long neck and exuded an ominous aura, which was extremely strange.
"Whose blood and energy are so vigorous!"
The shadow on the ground squirmed and turned into a dark figure, with only empty holes where the eyes were.
Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou looked at the three-eyed monk and the empty shadow, feeling a little confused.
Who are you? Where is the three-eyed ghost boy? Cui Que'er heard the noise outside and rubbed her eyes to see what was going on.
Little did she know that a boy with three eyes was floating in front of her, almost touching her face, with a weird smile on his face, waiting for Cui Que'er to open her eyes! "Where's the light?" Cui Que'er fumbled for the solar light and finally found the switch.
Pop.
The solar light lit up, and the three-eyed boy screamed and turned into ashes.
Cui Que'er tried hard to open her eyes, but saw nothing. She was a little puzzled: "Why do I feel like I heard screams?"
