Chapter 52 Head

"But at that time, I just thought that her end was approaching, and what she said was all nonsense. Unexpectedly, less than a year later, my son had an accident while traveling by water while running errands."

Mrs. Huo was extremely remorseful, "After that, I invited a wandering immortal who passed by. He said that there was a water demon in our house who died in vain, and it was extremely vicious. Ordinary magic might not be able to catch it, so I dug the lotus pond."

"He also said that it would be a pity to kill that thing directly. It's better to let it soak first to remove the vicious aura... It's good for making elixirs and medicine."

At this point, Mrs. Huo seemed to pause for a moment, "That immortal is kind and gentle. Although his words are a bit weird and hard to understand, the method is still effective."

The corner of Yan Conling's mouth twitched slightly.

At this point, she was basically certain that it was her uncle who had been wandering around for many years.

In Xuanfenghe's eyes, there is nothing in this world that cannot be used as medicinal materials. Even if it doesn't, it can always ferment and turn into medicinal properties after soaking it for a while.

In the eyes of outsiders, Yunshan is a place where immortals gather and look up to them with misty admiration. In fact, it is a place where weird things get together.

Immortality is fake, poverty is real.

"An'er has suffered from the disease since she was born. In the past few years, her body and bones have become worse than before." Mrs. Huo clenched the crutches in her hands and closed her eyes.

"Ping'er didn't know what rumors he had heard. After offering incense at a new temple in the Imperial Capital that day, he came back and concluded that An'er's illness was caused by evil spirits caused by falling into the water. He also said that An'er would die sooner or later... No matter what we said, we didn't listen to the advice, we found an opportunity and went quietly..."

The only new temple built in the imperial capital was the one where she had smashed the jade statue.

Yan Conling's eyes darkened, "So he went to the place where his wife fell into the water?"

Mrs. Huo nodded, unable to hide her pain, "You know that this child will lose his life because of this. It is better to tie him up in the house at all costs than to give away a black-haired person to a white-haired person."

"What does that have to do with the daughter of the Bai family?" Yan Conling did not forget the most important point.

"The marriage of the daughter of the Bai family... was given by a lame monk who was passing by a few days ago. He suddenly came to the door in the middle of the night, wrapped tightly in gray robe, and all he could see was that he had no hair..."

"He said that Ping'er's actions angered the evil spirit, and his soul was still trapped under the water, suffering torture and unable to enter reincarnation. Only by finding a blind girl with the same horoscope and marrying her can the solution be solved."

In the past, Mrs. Huo might not believe this kind of rhetoric. But one after another something happened to his children and grandchildren, and now only Huo Changan's last single seedling is left, which may be destroyed at any time.

She was urgently ill and sought medical treatment, but she still sent someone to find the Bai family.

The Huo family spends a lot of money, so the money-hungry Bai family insists on marrying Bai Shu.

"A girl from the Bai family has been in her prime for twenty years. If she enters this deep house, won't she have to remain a widow for the rest of her life?"

The more Yan Conling thought about it, the more fortunate he became. He didn't expect that he would find out such a long list of things after hearing the news that day.

This also proves that Dazhao has not been peaceful in recent years, and evil spirits are running rampant secretly.

"An'er said the same thing."

Mrs. Huo smiled bitterly and sighed, "I originally wanted to compensate the girl more after she came in. But An'er said that although Ping'er's life is short, he is a gentleman and magnanimous. Sacrificing the freedom of a young girl will only make him tainted with filth. He wouldn’t want it.”

This was also the reason for the quarrel between ancestors and grandson that Yan Conling heard when he first came in.

The white fox in my arms was like a hot potato.

I don't know if it was an illusion, but Huo Changan always felt that its gaze fell on the girl, as if it wanted to burn out two holes.

But when the girl looked back, the tips of her ears would droop obediently, and her eyes would soften involuntarily.

This is not like the way a pet or animal looks at a person, but more like...

When the weirdness and unbelievable speculation came to his mind, Huo Changan could hardly control the expression on his face. Thinking of the recent rumors that Miss Yan has a family, the lump in her hand became even heavier.

Yan Conling is young, beautiful, and friendly. Therefore, her lifelong events have always been the focus of gossip among the people of the imperial capital.

But this matter cannot be drawn to random conclusions...

"Miss Yan, I heard that you got married?"

As soon as the words came out, Huo Changan wanted to slap himself.

This question sounded like she fell in love with her at first sight and hated meeting her so late... Paired with her panicked tone, knowing that her husband was probably a fox, it just made her lose her crotch.

Sure enough, that gaze instantly moved to him, cold and cold.

There is no doubt that if so many people were not present, the white fox could tear him apart in one bite.

Mr. Huo felt even more pressure.

But Mrs. Huo, who was sitting here, obviously misunderstood something. Anyway, he was not bad at all this time, so he just picked up a hoe and helped his grandson dig out the wall.

"Miss Yan, please stay and have dinner later before leaving. Remember, Miss Yan is also from the Water Village. It just so happens that the house has hired a new cook who can cook authentic hometown dishes."

Yan Conling finally realized something was wrong.

Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the fox's jealousy that was about to explode at any moment, and the words on his lips suddenly froze.

"I'll show it to Mr. Huo first."

A talisman was punched out, and the complex blue formations swirled into Huo Changan's chest. His eyes widened in surprise, and then he fell asleep with his head tilted.

Mrs. Huo had lived for most of her life. This was the first time she saw such a scene, and she was horrified in her heart.

The Demon Suppression Division tries its best to avoid them when performing tasks, but Yan Conngling doesn't insist on this. Only when they see it with their own eyes can they understand what is going on. Instead of going around praying to wild gods whose origins are unknown, it is better to come to them directly.

However, considering that Mrs. Huo was old, she still asked politely before taking action.

"Old madam, do you need to retreat?"

Mrs. Huo heard what Xian meant and said, "No, I will stay here. No matter what happens later, I won't disturb the girl."

After receiving the answer, Yan Congling retracted his hand and said, "Broken."

The talisman seal that had been buried in Huo Changan's chest sprung up like bamboo shoots.

Several slender spiritual power chains were condensed from obscure runes, and fell steadily into her palm.

Next, Mrs. Huo saw with her own eyes that the chain was shaking violently, and the end that was connected to her grandson's heart seemed to be hooked on something, struggling like a fish on the hook.

The young man fell into a deep dream, his brows were tangled, and he showed a painful expression.

Mrs. Huo was horrified, but she remembered her previous promise and did not dare to speak out. The white fox, which had always had a quiet look and arrogant eyes, suddenly expanded its furry tail behind it, as gorgeous as a velvet fan.

With the demon king's aura suppressing it, the chain's struggle was obviously not as violent as before.

Yan Conling was furious and took the opportunity to pull hard.

With a sharp and weird smile, a white skull was pulled out from Huo Changan's chest.

The candle flickers and goes out without wind.
