Chapter 260: Rescue and Doubt (5)
Shen Yu looked at him with guilt and said, "Donor Song is a person involved in karma, so he will be innocently affected if he sets foot here! Alas... it is also my negligence. It seems that the descendants here have a close relationship with your master..." Shen Yu sighed.
Guyu also assisted, "I didn't expect that this master would be schemed against by the person next to him, it's really..."
"Junior sister, don't talk too much and don't forget the precepts." Wu Liu interrupted, but they had said everything they needed to say.
When the followers heard this, they realized it was indeed a plot! !
He looked up at the wooden signs in front of him and suddenly felt a chilly wind, like an icy knife piercing his bones. Every breath made him feel cold to the bone.
"Master, please save my master!" The follower knelt down and kowtowed. No, he had to send someone back to report to the old lady immediately! !
"My benefactor, this is the karma from past lives, and it is also entangled with the cycle of cause and effect. It is not something that human power can easily interfere with. Although I cannot go against the will of heaven, since I promised to set up a protective formation here, I will not break my promise. Whether you can hold out... it all depends on your luck."
After she finished speaking, she took out nine stones and continued, "One gives birth to two, two gives birth to three, three gives birth to all things, all things change, everything returns to one, and the cycle repeats... Forget it, benefactor, please ask the nine adult men around you to help me set up the formation."
Seeing the confusion on his followers' faces, Guyu reminded them again "kindly", "First, let your people maintain order at the door. There are already some residents here to watch. For today's incident, just say that your master is looking for someone to help exorcise the evil spirits! Then, Master needs to find someone from your family to place these formation stones in the corresponding positions. My senior brother will explain it to you later. Remember, it must be someone from your... family, understand?"
She deliberately divided the Song family and the Ou family. Anyway, Mr. Wu had already sent people to investigate the matter of selling people, so none of them could escape! !
This was also the plan that Shen Yu and the others had discussed in advance. Although the Ou family’s mansion was very low-key, there should be someone guarding it nearby.
The bet is that they won't be able to show up during the day, but even if they really do meet, they are in the same group as the Song family who are suspected of being used, so they are not afraid of being driven out. Shen Yu wants to take advantage of this time difference.
"Thank you, Taoist Priest, thank you, Master! I will make arrangements right away, but... there are only eleven of us today, Master, you..." The follower was a little embarrassed, the Master could not be neglectful.
"Donor, just go and do your thing. I have to wait until the formation stones are placed before we can start. Go ahead! Now that you have entered the game, I hope you can all get out of it safely. Take care!"
"I, I, I... I'll go right away!" Ah, join the game? Am I also joining the game? Oh my God! So scary! !
Seeing him running out without looking back, Shen Dahuyou Yu finally breathed a sigh of relief!
Although she had played many roles in order to complete tasks in her previous life, this was the first time she pretended to be a Taoist priest. If she continued, she would have no lines left!
The other servants of the Song family were so scared that they just stood outside the door tacitly. Anyway, the courtyard was clearly visible and there were only the Taoist priest and his disciples in the courtyard.
Shen Yu made hand gestures with both hands, and took the three people to check each room one by one. Unfortunately, she found nothing unusual. She even asked Wu Liu to step on every floor in the three rooms, but there was no sign of looseness...
Could it be that she guessed wrong?
Returning to the center of the courtyard again, she closed her eyes and recalled the note with the explosive information: Every day, there were servants responsible for offering incense. In the middle of the night, screams were heard, which alarmed the neighbors to go inside to investigate. The offerings on the altar were eaten, and the servants who stayed behind disappeared. There was no sign of fighting in the house. The door was locked from the inside, and the aunt's family sent servants to take care of it again...
Servant? I didn't see any.
There were indeed no signs of a fight.
……fruit?
Shen Yu walked directly to the altar and lit the incense stick beside it. She found that the surface of the fruit on the altar had begun to dry up. It must have been there for a few days and no one had come to replace it...
Did he not come? Or could he not come?
She was an atheist before she traveled through the book. Although she did not believe in ghosts and gods, she had become more cautious after the experience of traveling through time happened to her.
Kneeling on the mat and sincerely apologizing, they were thinking that they were also forced to do so, that the descendants of the Ou family were being used by bad people, and that even the ancestral house of the Ou family might have been dug up, etc. They also asked the ancestors of the Ou family to forgive them, and it would be best if they could show up and give them guidance...
Finally, she kowtowed three times sincerely. She didn't rush to get up after the last kowtow. Suddenly, the strands of hair on her forehead were blown by the breeze. She wondered where the strange wind came from in the room?
Hmm? Wind?
She raised her head slightly, and her sight happened to meet a piece of floor that was slightly raised in the corner. Without thinking, she crawled directly under the altar, reached out and pushed the floor away. Sure enough, a passage leading downwards was revealed.
Found it!!!!
Shen Yu immediately waved and called a few people to come and see. Mu Yi was the first one who wanted to jump down, but she held him back and signaled him with her eyes not to be impulsive. Let's go out and get some help to check it out!
The mansion is not big, and even if one of them disappears, it will be too conspicuous.
Suddenly, someone outside the door shouted "Master". Shen Yu and the others looked at each other. Wu Liu hid behind the pillar of the hall and got ready. As a result, three people walked in from outside the door. As soon as they saw her, they opened their mouths and said, "Master!"
Shen Yu, "………………"
You guys just have to COS, right? If I don't play with you, you'll play on your own, right?
The follower from before also appeared again, "Master, these people... said they are your disciples?"
Shen Yu rolled her eyes in her heart. How could I deny it after all this? The Taoist outfits of Wu Chen and the other two were obviously not in the modern style. That scarf was obviously copied from her idea!!! Humph!
But she could only smile and answer, "Yes! I have found the location where the formation is loose, so I asked a few disciples to help..."
But her eyes swept across the faces of the three people one by one. Her expression was as warm as spring breeze, but it made the three people's backs cold.
"Is it... is it the voice transmission from a thousand miles away? Taoist priest!" The follower looked at her with sparkling eyes. He had followed her all the way before she entered the room, and the Taoist priest didn't even call out to anyone! !
Shen Yu, "…………" "Well! Are the people who set up the formation stones ready?" I really don't want to continue discussing supernatural issues with him.
"Okay, okay! Everyone is waiting outside the door." The follower replied.
"Then let's get started!" She pointed at Wu Liu and said, "First disciple, go and help."
Without paying any attention, he nodded and left.
The stone slab had been put back in place before Shen Yu came out. She was not worried about being seen. Then the group began to chant scriptures with confidence.
.........
On the other side, Wu Liu found the right opportunity to escape, and returned to Wu Zhong's house nearby and said hurriedly, "Sir, we found an entrance to a tunnel in the house, and the princess asked me to come back and report!"
