Chapter 99
She was talking when she almost heard someone knocking on the door.

Sheng Jinmo looked at the door vigilantly, frowned and said in a low voice, "You stay here, I'll go and have a look."

When he went out alone, he saw someone who surprised him.

Patriarch Zhang!
"What's the matter?" Sheng Jinmo's face was dark, and he didn't have a good temper at all.

Patriarch Zhang looked Sheng Jinmo up and down, and then said: "Young man, are you a passing merchant?"

"Say something quickly." Sheng Jinmo felt that this old thing had no good intentions.

"That..." The patriarch probably didn't expect this young man to be so hot-tempered, and he said after a moment of embarrassment: "Our village has prepared a banquet for foreign merchants, and tonight..."

Without giving the patriarch a chance to finish his speech, Sheng Jinmo coldly refused: "No need."

He raised his hand to close the door, but his big hand was held down by a small white hand, which was young Xi.

She hid behind Sheng Jinmo, only showing a small head, and looked at the patriarch with a smile: "Is there any wine?"

"We will definitely be there tonight." Young Xi looked at the patriarch with black eyes.

His face was blue, his cheeks were thin, and he was full of Yin Qi.

If it weren't for people who have been with ghosts for a long time, they would not have this kind of breath on their bodies.

Hearing that she agreed, the patriarch showed a hint of joy: "That's good, that's good, I'll send someone to invite you tonight."

Afraid that they were going back on their word, the patriarch slipped away after finishing speaking.

"Why did you agree to him?" Sheng Jinmo looked at Nianyouxi in confusion.

Knowing that this is a Hongmen banquet, you still want to go?

Nianyouxi raised her eyebrows and smiled coquettishly: "As the saying goes, if you don't enter the tiger's den, you won't catch a tiger's cub."

I can't bear you, how can I catch a hooligan?
"We are always in the dark, we can't see clearly, so we might as well get involved."

Sheng Jinmo smiled: "So, what do you think he wants to do?"

"There is a high probability..." Nian Youxi swept Sheng Jinmo up and down, and smiled one last time: "He should have taken a fancy to your body."

"Ahem!" Sheng Jinmo was almost pissed off by her.

"Oh, don't be afraid, his son has been dead for a year, how can there be flesh to resurrect his son?"

"Unless he also has my ability, the yellow paper villain makes the body, but, after all, it is not a real human body."

"Even if it's resurrected, it's just a wisp of ghost stored on the yellow paper."

"So, he needs a real body to carry his son's soul."

"Understand?"

Youyouxi is not worried at all, there are still people who will use her yellow paper skills.

Sheng Jinmo frowned displeased, he probably felt that he was offended.

There are unscrupulous people coveting his body?
"So what do I do?" he asked.

Nian Youxi suddenly stretched out her hand, touched his abdomen, and raised her eyebrows: "Yo, eight-pack abs."

Sheng Jin's Mo Junyan suddenly sank, and the reddish ears revealed his emotions.

"You, don't move." His Adam's apple rolled, as if he was suppressing something.

But Nian Youxi laughed loudly: "What are you afraid of, I won't eat you again."

"However, you have to cooperate well with Patriarch Zhang tonight and play a good show with him!"

Sheng Jinmo was puzzled: "How to act?"

"You take whatever he gives you."

"It's enough to pass out on the table before sub-hours to cooperate with him."

Nian Youxi had already calculated the time when Patriarch Zhang would act, so she was so relieved.

"Okay." He hardly hesitated, depending on his trust in her.

As she expected, after sunset, Patriarch Zhang came to invite everyone to drink.

After some politeness, Sheng Jinmo was given several glasses of wine by Patriarch Zhang.

He glanced at Young Youxi, and then he lay down on the table cooperatively.

Nian Youxi fell on his arm and began to pretend to be drunk.

"How many people is he going to kill?" Sheng Jinmo whispered.

Nianyouxi narrowed her eyes, glanced at Patriarch Zhang, and whispered: "Seven."

"But there is one less?" Sheng Jinmo calculated, and there are only seven at present.

Nian Youxi whispered: "After sacrificing your soul, leaving your body is enough."

The patriarch's calculations were sound, not only did he take a fancy to Sheng Jinmo's body, but he didn't even want to let go of his soul.

"This boy drank too much, you guys send him back to rest."

Patriarch Zhang has been paying attention to the situation here. Seeing Sheng Jinmo lying on the table, he knew that his plan had succeeded.

Although the bodies of so many people in the village could be used by his son, they were all poor peasants.

But this man is not an ordinary person at first glance, he has an outstanding temperament and a handsome face.

Patriarch Zhang fell in love with Sheng Jinmo at a glance, such a person is too suitable to be his son!

He probably never imagined in his dreams that the one he took a fancy to was the emperor's son.

Sheng Jinmo was carried away by several people, but instead of sending him back to the inn, he went directly to the direction of the back mountain.

Patriarch Zhang found a reason and followed him to leave secretly.

Nianyouxi lay on the table and waited for a while before following.

Sheng Zishu caught up with her eagerly: "What are they going to do with Jinmo?"

"You can only watch for a while, you can't make trouble, you know?" Nian Youxi warned him.

Sheng Zishu nodded obediently, and Bai Yue joined them.

He brought with him the findings of the patriarch.

It didn't surprise Nianyouxi at all.

"This patriarch Zhang was disliked by the old patriarch because of mystical skills a few years ago."

"It seems that he was kicked out because he used sorcery to harm people in the village."

"I only returned to the village two years ago. I don't know what happened. After the old patriarch died, he became the patriarch."

"He still had a paper-making shop in the next county, but after he came back, he closed it."

Nian Youxi narrowed her eyes slightly, watching Patriarch Zhang and others carry Sheng Jinmo to the river.

She whispered: "That's right, if it wasn't someone from the Taoist sect, how could there be such crooked methods."

Just as they were talking, they saw Patriarch Zhang take out a small paper man taller than a person, and spun it around Sheng Jinmo's body three times.

"Princess, is your lord alright?" Bai Yue was a little anxious.

"It's okay." There was a sneer at the corner of her lips: "What could be the matter!"

Patriarch Zhang sank the little paper figurine into the river, and asked Sheng Jinmo to be carried back to his backyard.

He himself went to the ancestral hall, and after a while, he returned with Zhang Lianzhi's memorial tablet.

Patriarch Zhang hurried home and placed the tablet in the middle.

Surrounded by a few small paper figurines that had been prepared long ago, he was chanting something.

With a 'swipe', the little paper figurine ignited.

"Didn't he sink the little paper figurines in the river before?" Sheng Zishu wondered.

"One soul sinks into the river, seven souls sink into the river."

"There are seven souls hidden among the seven villains. Only those seven villains sinking into the river can hook out his son's soul."

"Burning these seven villains again, we can gather one soul, and then find a living body, one soul and one soul return to their place."

Youyouxi can understand the principle of summoning seven dragon balls to make a wish. I don't know if she explained it this way, do they understand?
