Heavenly Dao Formula

The old lady, surnamed Tian, ​​lived near the market in Fenghua County. Her husband died young, leaving only a small house and a son.

His son Tian Sangen served as a soldier in Anshen City and could only return home every two months. Apart from her, there is also a daughter-in-law, Ru Qiu, living in the family. Ruqiu has been pregnant for seven months. Due to her poor health, she spends most of the time in bed for recuperation, and her source of income is entirely supported by Tian Sangen's monthly money. Although the family background is mediocre, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law get along well, and they live a pretty good life as a child.

Seeing that she will soon have her grandson in her arms, Granny Tian naturally cares more about her daughter-in-law. In her spare time, she will do some handicrafts and sell them in the market, hoping to make Ruqiu eat better. But what she didn't expect was that something happened suddenly at home half a month ago.

First of all, it’s just a sound——when the night is quiet, there will be strange noises in the house, sometimes it seems to be on the beams of the house, and sometimes it seems to be in front of the window sill, and occasionally it will sound from the two of them, making mother-in-law and daughter-in-law A cold sweat broke out in shock.

Afterwards, the situation gradually became more serious. Crock pots and rice bowls would break for no reason, holes would be drilled in the window paper, and the sound began to affect reality little by little.

Even if the two of them lit candles all over the room, they couldn't stop the vision from appearing.

Tian's wife needed to be taken care of, but after such a toss, she became emaciated. Not only did she lose a lot of weight, but her mental state became more unstable.

It's not that Mrs. Tian hasn't thought of a way, such as moving out for a while. However, the family is not well-off at all, and neither the rented house nor the inn can last for too long.

She also went to a nearby temple to buy magic water and exorcism charms, but the strange noise was still there, and it seemed to be getting closer and closer to people.

In desperation, she begged Zhao Dahai.

When he first arrived in Fenghua County, Zhao Dahai had dealt with "spiritual problems" several times under the banner of Jiang Mo Daoist, and he had gained a bit of fame. Illusion or heart disease, and the so-called fame, at most, is the level that neighbors in the street will mention when chatting. Unexpectedly, Mrs. Tian not only heard about it, but also memorized it, so that she found Zhao Dahai when she was at a loss.

At that time, Master had already gotten rid of the predicament of owed money, so he agreed immediately. It's a pity that he failed to fool him this time, and after several times of "surrendering the devil", he couldn't make the strange noise disappear, so he could only thank the guests behind closed doors. But Mrs. Tian obviously didn't give up. She just thought that Daoist Zhao didn't try his best, so she came to beg every other day or two. It wasn't until Xia Fan returned to Fenghua County that the opening scene started.

"Zhao Daochang said that if even his apprentice can't solve it, there will be no second person in Fenghua County who can solve it." The old lady looked at Xia Fan eagerly, "Little Daoist...Little Immortal Master, please Save my family!"

I really found a good master. Xia Fan rolled his eyes silently, he was not looking for something to do for himself, but purely shirking responsibility. I don't even think about it, all the things my apprentice learns come from the master. If the master can't handle the evil spirits, can his apprentice still become a master?

Wait...it seems to be possible. If there is a thunderstorm from the shock technique directly in the house, no matter what evil things are hidden, they will probably be wiped out. The problem is that if such a thunderbolt strikes, half of the old man's house will be destroyed. Doesn't it mean that if you help, you won't help?

This method will not work.

But refuse... To be honest, Xia Fan couldn't bear it.

The old lady Tian in front of me was about fifty years old, her hair was already gray, and from her wrinkled and sunburned face, it was clear that she had suffered a lot in her life. For her, being able to see her children and grandchildren landed is probably the greatest comfort in her life, so she did not hesitate to lay down in front of a young man who was less than a third of her age.

If there is a miscarriage, the frail and sick Tian's wife is probably in danger. Even if the family is still there, it must be fragmented and no longer the same.

Xia Fan has been educated since he was a child to help others, but his ability in the past was limited, and his ability to help others was at most at the level of collecting money and giving directions to strangers. Now that he has the ability to save lives, it is difficult for him to pretend to turn a blind eye.

While thinking, Xia Fan's eyes suddenly stopped in the shadow of the back room.

By the way, isn't there a direct disciple of the Privy Council Qingjian here?

If you let her go to the scene to take a look, maybe you can find some clues!

The fox demon is injured and can't do anything, but that's not the point. The key is to find a countermeasure, and he can do it for him.

Xia Fan thought about it for a while, and found that this idea was unexpectedly feasible.

First of all, from the information heard from Mrs. Tian, ​​it is known that the "weirdness" in her family is not a vicious monster, otherwise the master will not go to the second or third time if the opponent is a little bit more dangerous. Already ran far away.

Secondly, the control of the county seat is not as strict as that of a big city. There is neither a curfew nor a night patrol, and the risk of fox demon exposure is very low.

The only question is whether Li is willing to intervene in this matter.

But when it comes to the ability of persuasion, Xia Fan thinks he has full confidence.

"I can give it a try, but there are a few conditions that must be stated in advance."

"The little Daoist said, as long as I can do it—"

"You can do what I mentioned." He interrupted, "First, you can't keep anyone in the house when I practice the method, you can only wait outside; second, don't publicize this matter, I don't want others to know about it It has something to do with me; third, there is no guarantee of results, Xie Chong is full of strange things, I can only say that I will do my best."

"I understand, I understand..." The old lady nodded repeatedly.

"And the fourth point... I need a set of your wife's clothes, which are looser." Xia Fan said slowly, "The bamboo hat and coir raincoat are also matched, and I will pay for it."

"There's no need for money! But... why does the Taoist chief want these?"

"Just in case the sky changes in the middle of the night."

...

After Mrs. Tian left, Li poked his head out from the back room, "Who told you that I agreed to help her? I am a demon, and she is a human. I have no reason to help an irrelevant human being, just as humans cannot help Like a demon."

As expected of a fox demon, he didn't say anything, but the other party already knew his intentions.

Li's tone was quite unhappy, as if he was very dissatisfied with Xia Fan's self-assertive behavior, "Let's say it first, I agree to cooperate with you, but it doesn't mean that I will listen to you in everything. We are not in an affiliation relationship, and cooperation should be full." Let's discuss and make a decision—”

"You're right, but this is a matter of life after all, and I didn't have the chance to discuss it with you just now." Xia Fan comforted him with a gentle tone, "As for the first point you said, I think it's biased."

"Bias? It's fine if people don't yell at monsters."

"Did I help you?" Xia Fan asked back.

"have."

"Am I human?"

Li Yi was stuck, "This, you are different..."

"Then if you don't help her, you can help me, right?" He took advantage of the situation and said, "The other party is not an alchemist from the Privy Council, and has no direct interest in the demon, so you won't have any bad consequences if you help me. It wasn't just right before. Talking about the classification of evil? You can treat it as a live teaching."
