Chapter Forty-Eight: The Li Mansion
Ban Qing and Wu Tian came straight to the Li Mansion side by side, and only when they arrived in front of the 'Li Mansion' did they know what the shock was, just the plaque that needed to be seen by looking up had already made many people daunted.
"Stop, who are you waiting for? This is the Li Mansion, the living people leave quickly!"
A man at the head of the ten-person squad, armed with a spear and wearing armor, looked fully armed, and scolded Wu Tian and the others.
"My senior brother and sister are disciples of Huaqing Sect in Xihua Mountain, and they received a task from the door to come here to exorcise evil spirits for Miss Li!"
Ban Qing saw that the ten-person team was all mortals, so he couldn't help but straighten his waist, put on a high-ranking appearance, and reported his name without being humble or arrogant.
"It turned out to be the immortal master of Huaqing Gate! The head of the family has been waiting for a long time! Please come in!"
When the first soldier heard that Ban Qing was famous, he immediately changed his respectful attitude, took the spear and made a gesture, and led the two into the Li Mansion.
Stepping into the gate of the Li Mansion, it is a relief of the whole white jade carving of the 'Tiger Earthquake Mountain', the tiger is carved lifelike, as if it may jump out of the relief at any time to hurt people.
What a rich family!
Wu Tian exclaimed, and followed the soldiers around the relief and entered the courtyard.
Wu Tian and the others have just entered the courtyard, a wide stone staircase completely paved with green jade, above the stone steps stands a magnificent and luxurious hall, although it is a few points smaller than the Xianzang Palace, but the whole hall is decorated with golden brilliance, and different forms of gold-inlaid reliefs can be seen everywhere.
"The high-ranking disciples of Huaqing Sect are here!
Suddenly, a majestic voice sounded from the main hall, thinking that the head of the Li family already knew that the two of them were coming.
"The head of the house is waiting in the hall, please come in!"
The soldier made a welcome gesture and respectfully exited the compound.
Wu Tian and Ban Qing glanced at each other, and they both saw shock in each other's eyes.
The two of them climbed the stairs, and when they entered the main hall, Ban Qing's straight waist was faintly bent.
On the main seat of the main hall sat a white man who was not angry and self-assured, his face was white and beardless, his black hair was coiled on his head, and he was restrained by a hosta at will, and a precious brocade robe showed the identity of this person.
"Meet the head of the Li family! My name is Ban Qing, and I and my junior brother Wu Tian received a mission from the sect and came to the Li Mansion, hoping to do a little bit!"
Ban Qing and the others stepped forward, made a gesture, and politely reported to their homes.
"Well, there is a high-ranking disciple of Lao Huaqing! It's just ...... The two of them are just cultivating for ?...... during the foundation building period."
The white man replied politely, but then asked suspiciously.
"The sect issued a task, and the cultivation required the peak of the foundation building period, is there anything wrong?"
Ban Qing was a little displeased, the two of them came from afar, and the Li family didn't let the two of them sit down, let alone serve tea.
"There's nothing wrong with that...... It's just that the girl's illness is a little strange, and I can't help anything with my cultivation in the god transformation period, and I even came forward to ask the city lord to take action in person, but it didn't have any effect, and I didn't even find the cause, so I cheekily begged your family, but your family sent two disciples in the foundation building period......"
The head of the Li family explained the situation with some disappointment, but out of fear of Huaqingmen, he did not say excessive words in words.
"Uh...... This ......"
Ban Qing was a little speechless for a while, looking at the task description, he thought it was an evil act by ordinary people, and it was easy to get it, and the task was also very clear about the cultivation requirements, and the foundation building period was at its peak, but I never thought that things would be like this.
How can the city lord of Yunzhou Mansion cultivate and refine the power of the void period!
Even refining the power of the void period can't solve it, why would the sect issue the task of cultivating to be the pinnacle of the foundation building period?
Wu Tian saw that Ban Qing was stunned in place, and he didn't know how to explain, so he said:
"The sect assigned the two of us to come, presumably there are also considerations from the sect, why don't you ask the head of the Li family to let the two of us see the young lady before making a conclusion?"
"Hmm......
If you want to come to the dignified Huaqing Gate, you won't deceive me, and you will have a deep meaning when you appoint two people to come!
Come with me, both of you!"
The head of the Li family pondered for a moment, and finally made up his mind to agree to Wu Tian's request.
After all, the two of them were assigned by Huaqingmen, so they couldn't even let the two of them take a look at them and send them away, and it was difficult to explain the situation; moreover, the head of the Li family also had a slight illusion in his heart, what if the two of them could really cure their daughter?
Soon the two followed the head of the Li family through the layers of courtyards, and stopped at the deepest part of the Li Mansion, a courtyard full of flowers, among which there was a camellia, which grew exceptionally tall and bright.
Sure enough, it's a big family, and it's a deep daughter!
The head of the Li family stopped in front of the courtyard gate for a moment, his eyes full of doting and sadness.
"Let's go!
The head of the Li family led the two into the courtyard, walked to a plainly decorated house, and pushed the door in.
"There are two Lao!"
The head of the Li family waved his hand, brushed away the maids in the house, turned around and said politely to Wu Tian and the others.
"My brother must do his best!"
Wu Tian responded, and walked straight to the bed covered by the light veil, and there was a faintly dressed woman with a beautiful face, lying on the bed with her eyes closed, her chest rising and falling slightly, but her breathing was much weaker than that of ordinary people.
Ban Qing also carefully checked the surrounding environment, and did not find any evil aura, so he turned his head and glanced at Wu Tian.
"Dare to ask the head of the Li family, did anything happen to the young lady before she fell into a coma?"
Wu Tian also found that there was no evil aura in the house, and there was not even a trace of the evil spirit, so he turned his head to the Li family master and asked.
"Hey...... It's a long story!"
The head of the Li family sighed a little lonely, and slowly talked about what happened before.
"The little girl has always been raised by me in the boudoir, and has never met outsiders, and she has been knowledgeable and sensible since she was a child. Although she is not a seedling of cultivation, as a woman, I don't want her to embark on the path of cultivation and fight and kill all day long.
This situation lasted until three months ago, one night three months ago, I happened to pass by the little girl's yard, and found that there was a strong demonic aura hovering over the yard, at that time I thought it was a monster, and rushed directly into the little girl's yard.
When I came in, I found a little girl and a man painting under the pavilion, and the man saw me come in, turned into a puff of smoke and wanted to run away. That monster was transformed by a camellia, and because of the shallow cultivation, it was quickly captured by me.
But the little girl cried and begged me to release the monster, saying that if I killed the monster, she would not live alone.
And where can I listen to this, since ancient times, demons have not been separated!
Ignoring the little girl's crying, I beat the monster back to its original form in front of her, and my soul was scattered. ”
When the head of the Li family said this, he rubbed his head with some remorse, and continued:
Since then, the little girl has not eaten or drunk, and has been alone in the house, and no one is allowed to come close. Within a few days, the little girl passed out in a coma, which has continued to this day, during which she can only rely on spiritual power to maintain her life. I have tried all means, and even came forward to beg the city lord to come, but I didn't wake up the little girl......"
Ban Qing and Wu Tian listened quietly to the Li family master's story, and couldn't help frowning.
