Chapter Ninety-Eight: Rather Believe It

Mother Li went out to spread the word, and soon the fifth aunt came in crying, the fifth aunt was tall and in her early twenties, at this time the goose egg face was covered with tears, and as soon as she came in, she knelt in front of the old lady, "The sixth young master of the old lady is missing, and the concubine is really helpless, so she came to ask the old lady." ”

When the old lady heard this, her hand on the small table was shaking, as if she had thought of something, and said to Mother Li: "Invite that Taoist priest into the mansion." ”

The corners of Qingyan's mouth were hooked, she had never seen the ancient Taoist priest who was abducted and deceived by the ancient pit and danced the great god, this Taoist priest knew as soon as he heard it, someone paid to hire him to talk nonsense, but this time he could see it for a long time.

After a long time, the Taoist priest was invited into Songtao Garden, and the Taoist priest reluctantly muttered while walking: "Don't push the old way, there is a lonely star in your Hou Mansion, and you will break the old way to cultivate, let the old way out of the house." ”

Qingyan heard this, and the old lady naturally heard it, Qingyan glanced at the old lady's expression, and saw that her expression was nervous, and she couldn't help but feel sad for the ancient Chinese people.

How many countries in history have been tragically destroyed because of listening to the words of the so-called heavenly masters, how many ministers have been beheaded because they have been killed by warlocks, how many mansions have fallen apart because of a word from a Taoist priest, and how many families have been separated because of feudal superstition, those people are deeply poisoned by feudal superstition, and they are convinced of superstition.

After the Taoist priest entered the main house, he saw that the old lady's attitude was faintly arrogant, and he said in his mouth: "The old lady should not embarrass the old man, the old man can't bear to see the Hou Mansion being harmed by the Heavenly Demon Lone Star, so he made a warning, what does the old lady mean by the old lady who wants the old man to enter the house?" ”

The old lady was displeased and reprimanded, "Who made you treat the Taoist chief like this? ”

Seeing that the old lady was displeased, Steward Lin arched his hand and said: "The old lady forgives the sins, this Taoist priest refuses to enter the mansion, and the old slave is also out of helplessness......"

Seeing this, the old lady waved her hand, signaled to let go of the Taoist priest, and then asked: "The Taoist chief said that there is a Heavenly Evil Lone Star in the mansion, can you know who this Heavenly Evil Lone Star is?" ”

After the old Taoist priest was let go, he raised his hand and stroked his beard, revealing an unfathomable expression, and said with Guan Zi: "This ...... The old way needs to open the altar to be determined. ”

When the old lady heard this, she was convinced, and a look of worry appeared on her face, and she instructed Steward Lin: "Steward Lin assists the Taoist to open the altar, and the Taoist must meet any needs." ”

About half an hour later, the little maid came, and the Taoist was ready, and the altar would be opened immediately.

How could the matter of clear face and lips be without the presence of the old lady? Immediately, he and Lin Qingwan helped the old lady to go to the Houfu Garden.

When Qingyan and his party arrived, the old Taoist priest had just started to do it.

Facing the sun, there is a desk, a yellow cloth embroidered with gossip diagrams, spread on the desk, an incense burner is placed in the center on the yellow cloth, two candlesticks are placed on the left and right, white candles are burned on the candlesticks, several tokens are neatly placed, and a copper coin sword is lying quietly on the side of the desk.

The Taoist priest was in the middle of the desk, and there were words in his mouth, and he opened his eyes and waved the copper coin sword in his hand, looking like it was really like that.

Suddenly, he shouted, grabbed the incense ash on the desk, and threw it into the air, and a flame burned in the air, which frightened the maids and women on the side to retreat in surprise.

After a while, everyone tended to be quiet, the old Taoist priest picked up a piece of rune paper, his eyes flashed brightly, and his mouth was still chanting, the old Taoist priest shouted and left, and the rune paper flew in one direction.

The old Taoist priest's eyes were calm, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and he accepted the copper coin sword in his hand.

Seeing this, the old lady hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Can the Dao Chief calculate where the Heavenly Evil Lone Star is?" ”

The old Taoist priest touched his beard, his face was unfathomable, "The spirit rune has already guided the way, and the Heavenly Demon Lone Star is in that corner of the Hou Mansion." ”

Following the direction of the old Taoist's finger, everyone looked at it together, and that direction was coincidentally the direction where Qingyan's Qianyun Pavilion was located.

Everyone's eyes looked at Qingyan in unison, but they didn't see the slightest panic on her face, only to see that she was unhurried, looked at the old Taoist priest with a light smile, and asked, "I don't know what the basis is?" ”

When the old Taoist priest saw that he was questioned, he was displeased, and said angrily: "What the spirit rune refers to is the basis." ”

Qing Yan was disapproving, still smiling lightly, "If what the Dao Chief said is true, Qing Yan can make the spirit rune point in any direction." ”

The old Taoist priest was a little weak-hearted, but he was angry to cover up, "Since Fuzhong doesn't believe in Lao Dao, Lao Dao will leave." ”

Seeing that the old lady hadn't said a solution yet, the old Taoist priest was about to leave, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop her, "The Taoist chief is angry, the child speaks without proportion, and I ask the Taoist chief for forgiveness, and dare to ask the Taoist chief how to resolve it." ”

The old Taoist snorted angrily, glanced at Qingyan and said angrily: "The method of dissolution has already been said by the old Taoist before, if it is just in case, that person can be directly executed." ”

Qingyan chuckled lightly and sneered at each other, "The Taoist is a cultivator, and he should be merciful, but in the Taoist chief's heart, a person is like a mustard, and I don't know where the Taoist temple is practicing?" ”

The old Taoist priest was speechless by sarcasm, and said angrily: "Since the government doesn't believe it, the old Taoist will leave." ”

"Daoist, please stay." A woman's urgent cry came from outside the crowd, and everyone followed the voice, and it was the eldest lady, with Lin Qingyun and Lin Qingxin beside her.

The eldest lady stepped forward a few steps, "Mother, I would rather believe that there is something or not, it is a matter of the heirs of the Hou Mansion, there is only one courtyard in the direction pointed by the spirit rune, which is Yan'er's Qianyun Pavilion, in order to avoid the disaster, please send Yan'er out of the house." ”

The old lady didn't speak, her eyes looked at Qingyan with unbearable eyes, of course she knew that the spirit rune was referring to Qingyan, but after all, she was her granddaughter, how could she bear it.

At this time, Qingyan took over and said: "Mother would rather believe that she has something than believe it, so she will drive Qingyan out of the house indiscriminately?" ”

Lin Qingxin said with some momentum: "How can the third sister say that your mother drove you away?" The facts are in front of you, since you returned home, your grandmother was sick, your father was in prison, my fourth sister and I were poisoned, and now my sixth brother is also missing. ”

"My father was imprisoned because the envoy presented a letter of collaboration with the enemy, what does it have to do with Qingyan? When my grandmother is sick, she is worried about her father, and what does it have to do with Qingyan? As for whether the sixth brother is missing, he has not been found, how can the fifth sister be sure that the sixth brother is missing? And if the fourth and fifth sisters hadn't stolen the rouge gouache from Qingyan, how could they be poisoned? ”

As soon as Lin Qingxin heard the word stealing, she became angry, "This girl is a concubine, the things in this house, you can use anything you like, how can you say stealing?" ”

Qingyan glanced at her coldly, "If you don't ask, you steal, your mother and fifth sister count these things on Qingyan's head, is it because Qingyan gave the fifth sister the opportunity to steal?" ”

Lin Qingxin pointed at Qingyan angrily, "You ......"
