me—"Bang!!" A massive shockwave burst through the door, sending the middle-aged woman flying. She slammed into the earthen wall, and I heard the sickening crunch of bone breaking.As the smoke cleared,...I had noticed before that the thing hanging on that signpost was a little strange.
Like the treasure cover of a summoning banner, it was wrapped with plastic paper in black and white and hung on the signpost.
But I don't understand what this means. The Land God said that he saw two "lanterns".
It resembles a small lantern, but what special meaning it holds, I can't quite figure out.
If not for my brother asking an extra question, Bai Wu Chang wouldn't have noticed this either.
"Yo~~ Is this a coincidence, or a secret code ~~~" Bai Wuchang drifted away. He took the bus just out of whim, he didn't plan on staying put at all.
"A signal I leaned against the driver's seat, watching Qiji flutter to the signpost and check it, then float back."
He slid into the car, tilting his head and smiling at Jiang Qiyun: "Your Majesty, I haven't seen these black and white round emblems in years~~~~"
"Mmm." Jiang Qiyun nodded faintly, seeming not at all surprised.
"Who hung this up..." Bai Wu Chang frowned slightly and chuckled a few times: "Forget it, forget it, we'll encounter them eventually... Little Empress, from now on, when you see such a sign, be careful."
"What symbol Black and white" I asked.
Bai Wuchang nodded, being serious for not even a minute before he started grinning and said: "But maybe it's just a coincidence~~"
I looked at Jiang Qiyun. He said lightly, "In the future, when you walk, if you see similar signs, be more careful. It's best to report to me as early as today."
"Okay." I nodded.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
The car jolted along for a while before coming to a rough cement road.
As long as it was a normal road, the passing wind would dissipate the heavy atmosphere. When my brother saw that his phone had two bars of signal, he pulled over to the side of the road and called home.
It is said that Liu student's family is still waiting at Mu's house for news, and Liu student's father has already come looking with people.
"Either you truly understand the Dao, or you don't. What I fear are those who pretend to understand but merely use it as a topic of conversation or to show off." My brother was looking at his phone, and just then he got a signal. He received many messages.
He quickly skimmed through it and said to me, "Xiao Qiao, I'm going back to the capital early today. I want to see Auntie Qin and her family, and also report to my mother-in-law about Lin Yanhua's progress. Otherwise, people will be so worried they go crazy, and we haven't given them any news here..."
I nodded, that's right. My brother probably hasn't gone back to see his wife and kids in about half a month.
“About this little bronze Buddha amulet, I think it’s okay for me to talk about it, right” My brother asked for my opinion.
"No problem, we haven't figured out the copper amulet and the mark of a living person yet, but it's definitely related to the Shen family. Let's report it first and let the Lin family feel at ease." I said softly.
Jiang Qiyun said Lin Yanhuan was fine, and I believe there wouldn't be anything wrong. But being in such a coma, the family must be extremely worried.
Chen Yan is a disciple of the Shen family, and she's also an orphan. This pressure is still manageable, after all, she's family. And Taoist families are more accepting of things that are mysterious and esoteric.
But Lin Yanhuan is different, his father is the Grand Elder. He's busy all the time but still makes time to care about his family. Luckily we're relatives, the Grand Elder really values my brother as his son-in-law.
Otherwise, I would have been taken to a special department long ago to be questioned and explain the situation.
Headlights appeared in the distance, a car sped up and braked hard behind us.
A piercing shout echoed down the deserted road as a rather well-dressed man jumped out of his car and barked at us, "Which one of you is young master Mu!"
The sound startled us. Jiang Qiyun, sitting in the car, seemed to be in his palanquin, motionless as a mountain, too lazy to pay attention to these worldly affairs.
My brother put his phone away and asked, "Who are you"
A wealthy man claiming to be a Daoist surnamed Liu said he was searching the area and rushed over after receiving location information from his family.
It should be Liu's father, right
My brother gave a brief account of the situation, omitting the details about the bronze talisman and the small Buddha statue. He only said that he estimated that several girls encountered ghost-stricken eyes after entering the mountain, their car overturned, and they were then blocked in a cave by a wandering old charlatan.
"We don't know the details, but we've cleaned this place up here and found those three girls. You should go get your daughter as soon as possible. It would be best to bring three camping sleeping bags to take them back, otherwise it will be hard to carry them down the mountain." My brother said.
"Well, then why didn't you bring my daughter down first!" Liu Dao Ren complained.
"Tsk, your daughter is naked, I wouldn't even want to look at her, let alone touch her. With your family's skills of being a burden, I'm afraid I'll have to pay compensation later." My brother scoffed and spoke plainly.
Liu Dao's face turned pale as he asked, "My daughter has been bullied"
"You need to ask your daughter. They're all in a coma right now, showing signs of dehydration. You've wasted so much time already, if you wait any longer, it might be too late." My brother clapped his hands.
Liu Dao grabbed my brother's sleeve and whispered, "You, you have to go in with us. Lead the way, or we won't be able to find our way through all this wilderness."
Bai Wu Chang was idly munching on melons, watching Liu Dao's persistent and shameless act. He let out a cold snort and pulled out a summoning paper from his sleeve.
"Seven Lords, Seven Lords, go easy," my older brother quickly stopped him.
Bai Wuchang merely tapped the summoning paper, and a small ghost attendant wearing a hat appeared, bowing respectfully.
"Go, lure those fools to the outskirts of the territory," Bai Wu Chang arched an eyebrow and smirked, "And remember, don't make it too easy for them~~~~"
The little ghost, understanding what the spirit meant, raised his hand and lit a lantern.
What the heck, the lantern's light wouldn't be warm and cozy, but a cluster of eerie green flames.
Just then, a cluster of ghostly flames ignited beside my brother. Liu Dao was startled and immediately let go, no longer daring to touch my brother.
My brother shrugged and said, "You guys are cultivators too, you can see this thing, right Follow me. Consider this my act of kindness. If you try to involve the Mu family or the Shen family again, don't blame me for turning on you."
It is already the end of Zi Shi, and the fifteenth day of the seventh lunar month has passed.
When Jiang Qiyun saw Liu Dao Ren talking to his brother, he gave me a displeased look: "… Let's go first. It's past the time for evening practice and Bai Wu Chang will be with your brother."
Is this guy thinking of going home to see Yu Gui and You Nan
"At this time, the children had already gone to bed." I whispered back into the car.
He glared at me. "You should go to sleep too."
The Celestial Emperor, when he decided to leave, no one could stop him. He gave Bai Wuchang a look and then opened the magical gate to take me home.
Everything at home was as usual. Four maids, dressed in red and black, guarded the door to my room. When Jiang Qiyun and I appeared inside, they quietly withdrew.
After washing up late at night, I hurried back to bed and snuggled in. I clutched the edge of the blanket and pulled it up to cover my mouth, pretending to be asleep.
The Heavenly Emperor clearly wasn't planning on letting me go easily. Even though we now had a child, and our intimacy had become more tender and gentle, when he narrowed his eyes... it was like he wanted to devour me...
>s, and such a threat cannot exist there.Therefore, his and Rahu's constellations were excluded.This makes sense, but it's also a bit frustrating. Maybe that's why Jiang Qiyun is willing to fight with...
