Chapter 75 - Possessed Men



Chapter 75: Possessed Men

Wei Shilai waved his hand. “No need. I know what to do. Don’t worry about these people.”

They were just suffering from the karma they deserved.

Wei Shilai already understood what Liu Sanniang meant when she said she was saving people.

Those children who needed justice were now looking for it themselves.

“Sir, is it really okay to leave them alone?”

All the men in the village seemed to have been possessed.

It was hard to imagine such a scene if they didn’t see it with their own eyes.

Wei Shilai smiled. “Nothing will happen. Just keep an eye on them. Don’t enter the village without my orders.”

No one in that village was innocent, and every one of them had to experience the karma they deserved.

Hearing Wei Shilai’s instructions, the officer left to pass down the order.

Other than going crazy at night, the men in River Village were normal during the day.

Only at night would they become a different person. They would eat pig food and do whatever animals did.

It was as if they were possessed. They could not control themselves. The most terrifying thing was that they were crying for help. They were conscious and even knew what they were doing, but they could not control themselves.

At night, they seemed to lose control of their bodies.

After one night, every family in River Village started to hire Daoist priests to help them exorcize the evil.

Granny Li was hired by several families. Other than her, there were also some other Daoists.

When they met, they smiled and greeted each other politely. After greeting each other, they went to look for the family that recruited them.

Whether it was drawing talismans, ringing bells, dancing, or singing, each of them did their own ritual.

The frightened men did whatever they were told.

Granny Li burnt the talisman into water and watched as the man drank it eagerly while thinking to herself. ‘Ignorant man.’

When it came to exorcizing the evil, there was no need to drink any talisman water at all. However, these people felt that after drinking it, there would be a layer of magic power protecting their bodies. They would fight to drink it, and would be unhappy if they were not given the water to drink.

Granny Li finished her ritual seriously before cautioning. “As the saying goes, if you don’t do anything wrong, you won’t be afraid of ghosts knocking on your door. If you sincerely admit your mistake, you will be safe after seven days of fasting.”

Granny Li could faintly sense resentment surrounding the village. Since she had taken the money from the families, she had to show them a way out.

She visited several families and realized that the situation was the same everywhere. She did the same thing and instructed them to fast and sincerely repent.

After leaving River Village, Granny Li couldn’t stop smiling. She had really earned a lot this time. However, she was also surprised by how weird the village was.

In addition to the ritual, she also sold some Peace Talismans, which amounted to quite a substantial income.

Just thinking about it made her happy.

Granny Li returned to the town and thought for a while before going to look for Liu Sanniang.

Initially, she felt that Liu Sanniang would definitely get married. But now, for some reason, she had a reputation for being arrogant and apparently was not going to get married anytime soon.

Liu Sanniang was very capable, so Granny Li thought it was necessary to build a good relationship with her.

Liu Sanniang opened the door and saw that it was Granny Li. She smiled. “Granny Li, please come in.”

Granny Li smiled. “Sanniang, what are you doing at home?”

Liu Sanniang returned to the courtyard. “Embroidery.”

Granny Li walked over to take a look. “How wonderful.”

She thought that Liu Sanniang’s embroidery skills were exaggerated. Now that she took a closer look at it, she was awe-stricken. From a distance, the patterns looked almost life-like.

Granny Li was even more convinced that Liu Sanniang was serious about not becoming a daoist. With such embroidery skills, she could easily make a living.

However, for some reason, Granny Li felt sorry for Liu Sanniang.

Granny Li had been married before, but Liu Sanniang probably wouldn’t have the chance.

“What can I do for you, Granny Li?”

Liu Sanniang asked. Because Granny Li was a psychic, Liu Sanniang would not be able to hear her thoughts without touching her.

Most people were wary of strangers. Only by breaking through this layer of defense could Liu Sanniang hear people’s thoughts.

Granny Li smiled. “Sanniang, something strange has happened in River Village recently. Do you want to go and take a look and make a name for yourself?”

Liu Sanniang smiled. “Thank you for your kindness, Granny Li. I’ve already been there.”

Granny Li was shocked. “You’ve been there??”

Liu Sanniang nodded.

Granny Li smiled. “Sanniang, you’re very talented. If I ever offended you in the past, please forgive me.”

Liu Sanniang smiled. “Granny Li, don’t worry. I won’t get famous and I won’t take away your job.”

She didn’t want to be famous either. Her best chance was to become an assistant for Wei Shilai and help him investigate the cases. Most of the time, she would continue improving her embroidery skills and potentially open a shop or something in the future.

Granny Li looked at Liu Sanniang. She couldn’t understand what Liu Sanniang was thinking at all. If she was so capable, why didn’t she use her power to get famous? If she was famous, she would be rich.

However, everyone made their own choice. Granny Li smiled. “It’s good that you know what you want. I just want to be on good terms with you.”

Liu Sanniang smiled. “Sure. There are many things I don’t understand. I hope you can guide me sometimes.”

Granny Li smiled. “Of course, of course.”

After Granny Li left, Liu Sanniang rested for a while before continuing her embroidery. She was embroidering clusters of peonies for Liu Ju’er. The blanket was spread out, and the lifelike peonies were blooming.

After embroidering Liu Ju’er’s, she embroidered one for her brother.

There was still time.

In two years, when she saved up some money, she would open a shop and make clothes.

Knock, knock, knock.

Someone knocked on the door. Liu Sanniang stood up, feeling a little disconcerted. Who was it?
