There were nearly three thousand people in this town, including the outsiders and businessmen.
Other than the children, almost everyone had gathered.
Everyone was indignant and felt that Hang Hang’s mother deserved to die.
“Master said that women should not go to the mourning hall at night. Hang Hang died suddenly , and he will easily become a malicious ghost. She doesn’t listen to the master and even fights with her mother-in-law in the ancestral hall. This kind of woman should die with her son.”
“I think it’s a good idea to knock her out and put her in a coffin.”
…
Hearing these cold and heartless words, Qi Yihan turned to look at Tang Li.
Tang Li looked at the door of the ancestral hall and frowned.
Qi Yihan asked, “What did you see?”
“Someone set up a most sinister killing formation here. When I came over yesterday, the formation was not activated. I didn’t expect it to be activated last night.”
The master shouldn’t have the ability to activate this formation.
“What will happen?”
“Both mother and son will become malicious ghosts at the same time, and they will be extremely resentful. When the time comes, they will be manipulated to do all the bad things.”
Hearing that, Qi Yihan frowned.
At this moment, an ear-piercing wail came from the ancestral hall.
Su Cuie’s mother-in-law was crying. “Cuie, you’re the one who brought this upon yourself ~ Don’t blame us for being so cruel. If you don’t die with Hang Hang, all the children in Liu Town will suffer. Don’t worry. Go with Hang Hang. We’ll definitely put a lot of money in your tomb for you to use in your after-life.”
Hearing that, Tang Li frowned even more.
She said, “That master must have asked her to do that.”
“Is the malicious ghost coming out?”
“Not yet. The killing formation that the master set requires dead children. Unless…”
Tang Li stopped talking and suddenly turned to look at the street.
Qi Yihan looked over as well.
A middle-aged woman was supporting an old woman with a walking stick as she walked over from the street.
The old woman should be in her seventies. Her eye sockets were deep, and there was a black aura in them, looking very scary.
“Here they are,” Tang Li said in a low voice. “These two are the family who sells the talisman. That old woman carries the evil spirit gathered from more than ten children.”
Qi Yihan’s expression darkened. “Can you handle them?”
“Yes, I can. I’ll get the Kylins to consume the evil spirit later, but…”
At this point, Tang Li looked in the direction of the town. “Two real masters are here. They’ll handle this for us.”
Qi Yihan nodded and the two of them quickly retreated to the side.
When the middle-aged woman and the old woman walked into the street, someone saw them.
One of them quickly shouted, “Grandma Liu is here.”
As soon as the person finished speaking, the master said from inside. “Quick, invite her in.”
The people around the ancestral hall quickly made their way. Then, the master and the head of the family went out to welcome the old woman.
The master was actually very respectful to Grandma Liu. “Grandma Liu, we’ve been expecting you. I’m about to nail the Soul Locking Spike on the coffin.”
Grandma Liu nodded and said, “I brought you some talismans. This can also prevent the child inside from turning into a malicious ghost after you nail the Soul Locking Spike.”
“That’s great.”
The two of them walked in.
The head of the Liu family also followed suit.
It was obvious that her status here was very high in this town.
Just as they were about to walk in, a young female voice suddenly came from the street. “Don’t believe them. They’re all liars!”
Tang Li looked at the girl who came rushing over angrily and said to Qi Yihan in surprise, “That girl is the old woman’s granddaughter.
Ever since Liu Xiaowen started studying, she knew that her grandmother and mother were spreading feudal superstitions and would be arrested and put in jail, so she had always wanted to stop them. However, the two of them earned a lot of money from spreading feudal superstitions and did not want to stop.
“My grandma is in cahoots with that person who calls himself Master.” Liu Xiaowen pointed at Granny Liu and that master and shouted, “That master is from a cult…”
“Xiaowen, shut up!” Liu Xiaowen’s mother walked towards her and gave her a slap to stop her from continuing.
Liu Xiaowen was stunned by the slap. She covered her face and looked at the woman who was glaring at her. She begged, “Mom, you and Grandma are helping the wicked. You will suffer.”
The middle-aged raised her hand again, but it stopped midair.
When Liu Xiaowen saw her raise her hand, she quickly retreated.
As soon as she retreated, two middle-aged men rushed over from the street.
One could tell at a glance that these two people were not ordinary people. One of them was holding a compass while the other was holding a bell.
After they strode over, they looked at the master standing by the door and said, “Looks like you set up a killing formation here to turn the people inside into malicious ghosts.”
The expression of the master by the door changed and he said sternly, “Where did these two scammers come from? How dare they spout nonsense here.”
Then, he said to the head of the Liu family anxiously, “Hurry up and chase them out of the town. They can turn your grandson into a ghost!”
When the head heard this, he was shocked and ordered everyone to chase the two away.
The onlookers were furious. They shouted at the two masters to leave the town immediately.
The two masters did not expect the people here to be so brainwashed by this fake master. They looked at each other and showed the thing in their hands.
The fake master beside the door also showed his artifact.
The three of them started fighting.
Old Madam Liu narrowed her eyes and looked at them while clenching her walking stick.
With a talisman, a strong wind blew around them, making everyone retreat in fear.
Tang Li looked at Granny Liu, who was standing there, and sneered. Then, she threw a talisman at her.
Granny Liu, who was about to attack, froze.
The middle-aged woman standing beside her panicked when she saw that the fake master was about to lose. “Mom, do something.”
However, Granny Liu did not answer. Getting no reply, the middle-aged woman quickly looked at her mom in a shock. When she saw her standing there like a tree, her expression changed drastically and she yelled, “Mom!”
