Transmigrated into ancient literature and killed the male protagonist to succeed

Chapter 217 Heaven is Unkind, I Will Take My Own Responsibility (13)

It was too late today, so the few of them had dinner at home, took a rest for the night, and then set off early in the morning.

Even if Mr. Fan was anxious, Master Feng calculated that Young Master Fan was still alive, so there was no point in being anxious.

It is better to have a good rest so that you will have more energy to eliminate monsters and save people.

Mr. Fan thought so too. His son had been missing for two or three months, and none of the people sent by the city lord had returned.

So they entertained them well.

As a result, Nan Yue got to know several colleagues.

The mortal world is often plagued by demons, innocent mortals become prey, and the immortals rarely care. So demon catchers were born, whose duty is to exorcise demons.

Hongye City, where Nan Yue lived before, was too remote, and Taoyuan Village was even more secluded, so naturally she had never heard of these things. It would be nice if she could live a stable life, which was why Yu Wu said that when she was about to leave the village.

That pair of siblings were serious monster catchers from Canglan Mountain. Their school was very famous and was considered one of the most prestigious schools in the world, having produced several great masters.

This is why, although these two people look very young, they are so respected by Mr. Fan.

The senior sister’s name is Fang Miaoyin. She is a straightforward and carefree person. As both of them are women, she quickly became familiar with Nan Yue.

According to Fang Miaoyin, the junior brother was picked up by the lake at the foot of the mountain. Since he was the master's nineteenth disciple, he took the master's surname and was called Ye Shijiu.

Ye Shijiu is a man of few words and somewhat shy. He looks like a teenager, about the same age as Nan Yue.

As for that monk, his Buddhist name is Duchen, and he is a very mysterious monk.

Compared with the arrogant Master Feng, his attitude was much friendlier. Even when facing Yun Ci, who had no magical power but insisted on joining the demon-hunting team, he did not show any disdain. Instead, he praised him for his kindness and said he was worthy of being a scholar.

Yun Ci was so moved that he burst into tears. Along the way, the most common thing he heard was that scholars are good for nothing.

He didn't expect that he, who was barely able to even tie a chicken, could receive recognition from the senior monk.

Du Chen just praised him a few words, and Yun Ci talked nonsense with him for a long time.

Du Chen seemed very patient, but the beads in his hand were spinning faster and faster...

After Nan Yue finished her meal, she left the house and went back to the inn where she had stayed to get her things while the scholar was not bothering her.

"Master, I have been in Sunset City for such a long time. Only when you saw me for the first time, you knew that I care about the world."

"To be honest, although I am just a scholar, I have the lofty ambition of exorcising demons. You are the real master. I only believe in you..."

The scholar looked like he had met a soulmate. He grabbed Du Chen's hand with an excited look on his face.

Du Chen smiled tolerantly, "Buddha is merciful. As long as you are kind-hearted, you will get what you want."

He withdrew his hand without leaving a trace, only to find that he and the scholar were the only ones left in the hall; the others had already left.

"I am a little tired, I will go to rest first."

After saying that, Du Chen left quickly.

Yun Ci seemed to remember something, and tapped his head with his folding fan, muttering to himself in annoyance: "Where is Miss Jiang? How could I forget about Miss Jiang?"

……

The next day.

A few people packed their things and set off.

The location of the big monster that the master had mentioned before was in the deep mountains in the southwest.

Because of this incident, the Lord of Sunset City ordered the road to the mountains to be closed, and the people were not allowed to pass through there.

The few of them took a carriage for most of the day before they reached the foot of the mountain. The servant who sent them here was from the Fan Mansion. He had no magical powers and would not follow them into the mountain.

Master Feng took out the compass. He was still some distance away from the big monster, but he felt something was wrong all over his body. He immediately started to circulate the spiritual power in his dantian.

Fortunately, most of them had magical powers to protect themselves. Only the scholar shook his body and sneezed, "It's a bit cold..."

"Be careful, this is evil energy. If it invades the body too much, it will lead to weakness, yang deficiency, illness, and premature death." Du Chen reminded.

"Ah? Yang deficiency?" The scholar was startled and quickly took out a coat from the bag behind him and wrapped it up. "I don't want Yang deficiency! I haven't gotten married yet! My future wife will dislike me!"

Fang Miaoyin rolled her eyes speechlessly. Is this the point?

Du Chen shook his head and said, "Evil spirits cannot be solved by keeping warm. If you can get an evil-repelling talisman, or have magic power to protect yourself, you won't be afraid of evil spirits entering your body."

He sighed, "It's a pity that I didn't prepare any talismans to ward off evil spirits, and the skills I practiced are even less suitable for protecting others."

Master Feng snorted coldly. Before they even saw the big monster, this scholar started to drag his feet. He said, what's the point of bringing them along.

"In my opinion, we should abandon this useless scholar to avoid trouble later. I'm leaving first, you can do whatever you want."

After saying this, he followed the compass and walked straight into the mountains...

Originally, the magic power of several people was reserved for dealing with the big monster. More magic power means more chances of winning. How could they use it to protect people at the beginning, and protect them throughout the whole process?

The talisman has many uses and not everyone has one. Giving it to a scholar to use it to ward off evil spirits and keep out the cold is a waste of talent.

Fang Miaoyin grabbed her junior brother's hand and was ready to chase after Master Feng...

Yun Ci blinked, and looked at Nan Yue pitifully with a pair of dark eyes, "Miss Jiang, please help me..."

Nan Yue pursed her lips, but finally she softened her heart. What if she left him here and he was captured by a monster?

And she promised the scholar that they would be together.

She always keeps her word and never breaks her promise.

So she took out the hundred-liang silver note from her sleeve pocket and handed it to Fang Miaoyin.

"I want to buy you a talisman to ward off evil spirits."

Fang Miaoyin hesitated for a moment and took out two talismans from her bag. "This is a talisman I drew myself. It's not worth a hundred taels at all. I'll give you two. I can't give you more."

If she were outside, she wouldn't be able to sell her talismans for fifty taels each.

Nan Yue handed the talisman to Yun Ci and said, "I know that when fighting against demons, the more things you have, the better. In this case, it's great that you can sell me two. Thank you."

She was so polite that Fang Miaoyin felt a little embarrassed. "Let's go quickly, or Master Feng will be angry again."

She glared at the scholar again and said, "You are lucky to have met someone as nice as Miss Jiang, otherwise we would not care about you."

Yun Ci carefully placed the two talismans in the pouch on her waist. Hearing this, she curled her lips and smiled, "Of course I know. Miss Jiang is the best. I will definitely repay Miss Jiang well."

"Let's go." Nan Yue's face was indifferent, and she whispered to the scholar beside her, "It's my bad luck to have the same notice as you."

Yun Ci's smile deepened, "But meeting Miss Jiang is the greatest fortune of my life."

Nan Yue ignored him and walked with Fang Miaoyin.

Yun Ci caught up in a few steps and seemed to be in a very good mood.

After this incident, the relationship between the few people became much closer, as they were all young people.

Du Chen continued to walk behind them, turning the Buddhist beads in his hand slowly.
