6 min read1,507 words

This old lady, named Tian, lives at the market in Fenghua County. Her

husband died young, leaving only a small residence and a son.

His son Tian Sangen served as a soldier in Anshen City and could only return

home once every two months. In addition to her, there is also a daughter-in-

law Ruqiu who lives in the house. Ruqiu has been pregnant for seven months.

Due to his poor health, he spends most of his time in bed for recuperation.

The source of income depends entirely on Tian Sangen's monthly money. Although

the family is in a mediocre family, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law get

along well and have a good life.

I can hug my grandson right away. Naturally, Mrs. Tian pays more attention to

her daughter-in-law. In her free time, she will do some manual work and go to

the market to sell her, hoping to make Ruqiu eat better. But what she didn't

expect was that something happened at home half a month ago.

At first it was just a sound-in the middle of the night, there will be strange

sounds of da and da, sometimes like on the beams of the house, and sometimes

in front of the window sill, and even occasionally from the two of you There

was a cold sweat.

After , the situation gradually became more serious. Crock pots and rice bowls

would inexplicably shatter, window papers were drilled with holes, and the

sound began to affect reality a little bit.

Even if the two people light up candles in the room, they cannot stop the

appearance of this vision.

Tian's wife needs to be in peace. After such a tossing, the whole person

becomes haggard. Not only has she lost a lot of weight, but her mental state

has become more unstable. If this continues, let alone a safe delivery, there

is a possibility that the children in her belly cannot be kept.

Tian Tian did not think of ways, such as moving out for a while. However, the

family is not rich, and neither renting a house nor an inn can last too long.

She also bought divine water and ghost-expelling charms from nearby temples,

but the strange noise remained, and she seemed to be getting closer and

closer.

In desperation, she begged Zhao Dahai.

When he first arrived in Fenghua County, Zhao Dahai had dealt with "spiritual

problems" several times under the banner of "Making the Demons", and he had

gained a bit of fame. Of course, in Xia Fan's eyes, most of those spiritual

phenomena were just villagers’ Conjecture or heart disease, and the so-called

fame, at best, is the degree to which neighbors in the street will talk so

much. Unexpectedly, Mrs. Tian not only heard it, but also wrote it down, so

that when she was helpless, she found Zhao Dahai.

At that time, the master had gotten rid of the predicament of arrears, and

naturally responded. It is a pity that he failed to flicker this time, and

after several "destroying demons", he couldn't make the strange noise

disappear, so he could only thank the guests behind closed doors. But Mrs.

Tian obviously didn't give up. She just thought that Daochang Zhao didn't

exert all her strength, and she came to beg once every one or two days. It was

not until Xia Fan returned to Fenghua County that she had the first scene.

"Zhao Daochang said that if even his apprentice can't solve it, it is

impossible for a second person in Fenghua County to solve it." The old lady

looked at Xia Fan eagerly, "Little Dao Master...Little Fairy Master, please

Save my family!"

I really found a good master. Xia Fan rolled his eyes silently, he was not

looking for something for himself, but simply shirking responsibility. I don't

want to think that all the things my apprentice has learned come from the

master, and the evil that the master can't handle, can his apprentice become

it?

Wait... It seems to be really possible. If there is a thunder in the house

directly, no matter what evil is hidden, it is estimated that it will be wiped

out. The problem is that with such a thunderstorm, it is estimated that half

of the old man's house will be destroyed. Doesn't it mean that if you help,

you will not help?

This method does not work.

But refused... Honestly, Xia Fan couldn't let this heart down.

The old lady in front of her was in her fifties and her hair was all gray.

Judging from her face full of wrinkles and sun marks, she knew that she had

suffered a lot in her life. For her, seeing her children and grandchildren

landed is probably the greatest comfort in this life, so she did everything

possible to lie down in front of a young man who was less than one-third of

her age.

If it was a miscarriage, the frail and sickly Tian's wife would be more ill-

fortuned. Even if the family is still there, it will definitely be fragmented

and no longer.

The education Xia Fan received from an early age was to help others, but his

ability was limited in the past. At most, helping others stayed at the level

of collecting money and giving directions to strangers. Now that he has the

ability to save lives, it is difficult for him to pretend to be blind.

After thinking, Xia Fan's eyes suddenly stopped in the shadow of the back

room.

By the way, isn’t there a personal disciple of the Privy Council Qingjian

here?

If she was asked to take a look at the scene, she might find some clues!

The fox demon is injured and cannot do it, but this is not the key. The key is

to find a countermeasure. He can do things like doing it.

Xia Fan thought about it for a moment, and found that this idea was

unexpectedly feasible.

First of all, from the news from Mrs. Tian, the "weird" in her house is not

a vicious monster, otherwise the master would never go to the second or third

time if the opponent is a little more dangerous. I ran far away long ago.

Secondly, county towns are not as tightly controlled as in large cities. There

is no curfew or night patrol, and the risk of fox demon exposure is very low.

The only problem is whether Li is willing to intervene in this matter.

But when it comes to the ability to persuade, Xia Fan thinks he has full

confidence.

"I can try, but there are a few conditions that must be stated in advance."

"Don't hesitate to say that the leader, as long as I can do it—"

"You can do what I mentioned." He interrupted, "First, you can't keep people

in the house when I practice, you can only wait outside; second, don't promote

this, I don't want others to know about it. It has something to do with me;

thirdly, there is no guarantee of results. UU reading www.uukanshu.com has a

lot of strange things, I can only say do my best."

"I understand, I understand..." The old lady nodded repeatedly.

"And the fourth point...I need a set of your daughter-in-law's clothes, which

are looser." Xia Fan slowly said, "I also have a pair of hats and clothes. I

will pay."

"Money is unnecessary! But...what does the trail leader want these for?"

"Just in case the sky changes late at night."

……

After Mrs. Tian left, Li poked her head out of the inner room, "Who told you

that I agreed to help her? I am a demon, she is a human. I have no reason to

help an irrelevant human being, just as people would not help. Like a demon."

deserves to be a fox demon, he hasn't said anything yet, the other party

already knows his intentions well.

Li's tone was rather unpleasant, and he seemed to be very dissatisfied with

Xia Fan's self-assertive behavior, "Say it first, I promise to cooperate with

you, it does not mean that everything is listened to you. We are not

subordinate, and cooperation should be sufficient. Make a decision after

negotiation—"

"You are right, but this matter is about life after all, and I didn't have the

opportunity to discuss it with you just now." Xia Fan calmed down, "As for the

first point you said, I feel biased."

"Partial? It's good if people don't shout at the demon."

"Have I helped you?" Xia Fan asked back.

"Have."

"Am I human?"

Li got stuck for a while, "This, you are different..."

"Then you don't help her, can you help me?" He took advantage of the

situation, "The other party is not an alchemist in the Privy Council, and has

no direct interest in the demon. You will not have any bad consequences if you

help me. It was not just right before. Speaking of the classification of evil

spirits? You can treat it as an on-site teaching."
