Outside the door, Ruan Shenglin, Yang Kun, and Xu Tong finally heaved sighs of relief when they saw Master Chi co out not long after. Yang Kun walked up to Master Chi first and couldn’t help but murmur, “Master, I now feel that the people in this village are each stranger than the last! How can such a strange person raise such a soft and cute child?”
Ruan Shenglin and Xu Tong told Brother Kun not to talk nonsense. They were still outside the door. It would be very awkward if the other party heard them badmouthing her.
Chi Shuyan’s face softened a little. She glanced at Yang Kun, who imdiately shut up obediently.
“Let’s go!” Chi Shuyan said. She paused and glanced at the linint in Yang Kun’s hand, then asked to take a look at it.
Yang Kun imdiately gave the bottle to Master Chi and said that he just had minor injuries; if Master Chi needed it, he would give it to her.
Chi Shuyan didn’t reply imdiately. Instead, she unscrewed the cap and took a sniff. She realized that the sll of dicinal alcohol was very strong. This ant that the dicinal effects of this linint were probably very good. It wasn’t sothing ordinary doctors who knew herbs could concoct.
In particular, she thought of the variety of herbs in Aunt Miao’s courtyard just now. Her skills were simply too good. She felt that Aunt Miao’s identity was probably not simple, and this person knew a lot in particular about herbs.
She had once heard that so minority clans had skills which were passed down through the generations. For example, so were very good at using poison, dicine, and the Gu bug. Although she didn’t know which particular clan Aunt Miao belonged to, Chi Shuyan had so guesses. However, she was more curious about how Aunt Miao, who was so skilled with herbs, had entered Dashan village and married into the Xu family.
Just from the way Aunt Miao spat out the words “the afterlife” as she swept Chi Shuyan out the door, she probably knew a lot. Chi Shuyan felt that if she wanted to know the secrets behind the village, the only breakthrough would be with Aunt Miao.
Moreover, from what Aunt Miao said, she didn’t believe much in the True Buddha in this village, and even seed to know so of the specific secrets related to it.
It wasn’t strange that Aunt Miao would know sothing of what happened in the Xu family back then, but Chi Shuyan was surprised that Aunt Miao didn’t believe in the True Buddha like the rest of the village.
The biggest breakthrough now would be with Aunt Miao, but thinking of her strange temperant, Chi Shuyan couldn’t help but sigh.
“Master, what are you thinking?” Ruan Shenglin and his wife couldn’t help but ask when they saw Master Chi sigh repeatedly.
Chi Shuyan replied, “In the future, be careful not to call ‘Master’ in front of everybody else in the village. You can use my na!”
Ruan Shenglin, Xu Tong and Yang Kun hurriedly waved their hands in shock.
Chi Shuyan explained, “This village is too strange. I can’t say for sure what will happen in the next second, so if we can keep so things quiet for now, we should. By the way, apart from being a Master, I’m also a freshman at Yanjing University this year.”
Chi Shuyan also wanted to get closer to Ruan Shenglin and the others.
Sure enough!
When Chi Shuyan ntioned how she was a freshman at Yanjing University, she closed the distance slightly with Ruan Shenglin and the others, so they were able to better accept calling her by na. Xu Tong and Chi Shuyan got along well to begin with, so the forr was the first to get used to it. She giggled and asked her how old Chi Shuyan was, and the two drew close and talked in low voices together.
Just before they got back to their accommodations, Chi Shuyan returned the linint to Yang Kun and told him to use it on his injuries. Afraid that Yang Kun wouldn’t take it seriously, she confird the effect of the linint and said, “This bottle is indeed good. It’s probably very difficult to buy such good quality linint in the world.”
Yang Kun was convinced by Master Chi’s words. As soon as he heard that, he imdiately took the linint and stuffed it into his pocket. He nodded and said, “Master Chi, I understand. I’ll definitely use it later.”
Chi Shuyan nodded. Before she returned to her accommodation, she thought of sothing and said, “By the way, tomorrow should be the three-day deadline. If you don’t do anything today, I’m afraid the village chief will ask you to invite in the True Buddha tomorrow. Rember, don’t do it for real. Delay it if you can.”
As soon as they heard about the Buddha statue, Ruan Shenglin and Yang Kun were indeed terrified. Xu Tong had yet to see the Buddha statue and didn’t know what was going on at all. She looked at Ruan Shenglin and Yang Kun in bewildernt.
However, their attention was on Master Chi.
Chi Shuyan continued, “Although I don’t know how harmful it is to invite in that so-called True Buddha, I’m sure of one thing: There’s no benefit in doing so. Find an excuse to delay it for a few more days. Even if the village chief forces you to do so, don’t give in. As for those who have already done so, you can try and persuade them to throw it out as soon as possible. Wait.” Chi Shuyan thought of how that thing wasn’t sothing that could be thrown away so easily, and said, “If any of your friends want to throw out that Buddha statue, co and buy a few Exorcism Talismans from first.”
Ruan Shenglin and Yang Kun were overjoyed when they heard this. It couldn’t be any better that Master Chi was willing to help. As for those Exorcism Talismans, the two made up their minds to get their friends to imdiately co and buy so, for fear that Master Chi would change her mind later.
Yang Kun’s eyes darted around and he suddenly asked, “Master Chi… no, Shuyan, can we invite in that True Buddha before we ask you to help deal with it?”
This village was really obsessed with this thing. Previously, they hadn’t been willing to invite it in. The village chief had been unhappy and his face unsightly. It would probably be difficult to delay it this ti.
Chi Shuyan looked at him indifferently. “Try it if you want!”
“Sister… Sister-in-law, Brother Feng is awake!” Xiao Shan ca out of the door and imdiately shouted excitedly when he saw Master Chi.
