Chapter 82: Miss Liu Is Here
As soon as the door opened, the constable who came to invite Liu Sanniang entered the courtyard. Liu Erlang pushed him but couldn’t stop him from entering. He spoke up anxiously. “Miss Liu, something bad has happened. Go and take a look.”
When Liu Erlang heard that it had something to do with his sister, he immediately sobered up. “Whatever has happened, talk about it in the morning.”
How could a young girl leave her house in the middle of the night?
The constable was so anxious that his eyes turned red. “Something really happened. River Village is covered in fog. The people from the capital and Magistrate Wei are all trapped inside.”
Liu Erlang frowned. Was it really so serious?
Liu Sanniang had already put on her clothes and came out. “I’ll go with you.”
Liu Erlang immediately grabbed Liu Sanniang. “No, it’s already so late.”
Mr. Liu and Madam Wei also came out. They didn’t want Liu Sanniang to go over. They opened their mouths but couldn’t say anything to stop her.
Liu Sanniang patted Liu Erlang’s hand. “Second Brother, don’t worry. I’ll be fine.”
Liu Sanniang turned around and followed the constable out.
Madam Wei strode to the door and watched Liu Sanniang get into the carriage. Her heart tightened. “Sanniang, be careful.”
Liu Sanniang replied. “Yes.”
There was no time to waste. The constable had already driven the carriage away.
Although the carriage traveled fast, it was already dawn when they arrived at River Village.
Officer Zhou did not sleep. From time to time, he would reach out to touch the fog to see if he could feel the bridge, but he could not.
When he saw the carriage, he immediately got up and ran forward. When Liu Sanniang came down, he immediately said, “Miss Liu, you’re finally here.”
Not knowing what was going on inside, they were on tenterhooks.
If something happened to Su Yanyu, everyone would be in trouble.
Liu Sanniang looked at the fog and frowned. “Someone tried to hurt them.”
Officer Zhou didn’t know what Liu Sanniang meant. When he saw her frown, his heart tightened. “Miss Liu, is there any way?”
Liu Sanniang looked at the fog. “I won’t know until I go in.”
Officer Zhou was a little worried. “Miss Liu, the bridge is gone.”
If they wanted to enter the village, they would have to cross the bridge. Without the bridge, how could they enter? Although River Village was called River Village, the river was not small and the water was deep.
Liu Sanniang looked at Officer Zhou. “If we don’t come out in seven days, seal this village and build a temple at the entrance.”
Officer Zhou was shocked. “Miss Liu, this…”
Officer Zhou did not agree immediately. He was shocked by how serious the situation was.
Liu Sanniang smiled and walked in. When Officer Zhou came back to his senses, she was already gone.
Officer Zhou chased after her and shouted. “Miss Liu…”
Liu Sanniang had already walked into the fog and disappeared. Officer Zhou looked at the fog and couldn’t help but clench his fists. However, he couldn’t go in.
The constables present there had heard what Liu Sanniang said. They frowned and looked at the fog in front of them in awe.
There were still many things in this world that they didn’t know about.
Liu Sanniang walked into the village and heard some cries from afar.
That night, Kongyu and Kongling tried their best to walk out of the village again and again. However, no matter how they walked, they would circle around and return to the village.
Su Yanyu was afraid. He didn’t want to die yet.
The servants behind him were no longer in a mood to please him.
“Kongyu, there’s a figure over there.”
Kong Ling was already very tired. He rubbed his eyes and confirmed again before speaking.
Kongyu looked ahead and really saw a figure.
Su Yanyu was so frightened that he retreated to the back. Even though the hundreds of soldiers he brought were surrounding him, he still felt unsafe. “A human or a ghost?”
Kongyu said nothing.
“It’s Miss Liu.”
Lin Zheng lowered his voice and said to Wei Shilai.
“Who is Miss Liu? Who is she?”
Su Yanyu looked at Wei Shilai and Lin Zheng. Although Lin Zheng had lowered his voice, his voice was still audible as the surrounding was dead quiet.
Wei Shilai replied. “It’s the girl I was talking about. She’s the one who exorcized the seven daughters in Liu Laoda’s family.”
When Liu Sanniang walked out of the fog, Wei Shilai had already gone up to her and smiled. “Miss Liu, is that you?”
Liu Sanniang smiled at Wei Shilai. “Yes.”
Wei Shilai heaved a sigh of relief. Once Liu Sanniang arrived, he felt inexplicably at ease.
Both Kongyu and Kongling were sizing up Liu Sanniang and frowning. How could a little girl who had no spiritual power be able to exorcize a vengeful soul?
Su Yanyu’s eyes lit up. He said to Liu Sanniang, “Are you the master Magistrate Wei mentioned? Why don’t you look like one? Forget it, forget it. Hurry up and tackle these souls. I’ll reward you handsomely.”
Liu Sanniang glanced at Su Yanyu and looked away. She asked Kongyu and Kongling. “What did you do?”
Kongyu frowned and explained. “We are both psychics from the Mystic Sect. Of course we did what was right.”
“Do you believe that what you did was really right?”
Liu Sanniang walked towards the crowd and waved her hand. The vengeful souls who were riding on their father’s neck and had refused to come down jumped down, ran towards Liu Sanniang. When they reached her, they started crying.
They were all four or five years old, and some of them were even younger. They cried and felt extremely aggrieved. “Sis, Sis, it hurts…”
Some of them extended their hands and some showed their feet. They wanted Liu Sanniang to see that they were injured and in pain.
Looking at this scene, people who were guilty screamed in fear. “Ahhh, ghosts, ghosts…”
Kongyu frowned and his eyes widened. He could not believe what he was seeing.
Liu Sanniang touched their heads as she chanted scriptures softly. Slowly, the injured vengeful souls recovered.
