Feng Yingying stood up. She thought about the dance steps she saw, and then she began to dance.
Yu Xian was flabbergasted.
She thoughtâ¦
The dance was very beautiful. After all, Feng Yingying was also quite beautiful, and the dance steps she performed should be pleasing to the eye, butâ¦
It was completely different from what she thought!
Feng Yingying took a step forward, and her movements were exaggerated like a manâs. Her hands swung in an exaggerated arc, just like the drunken soldiers in the navy camp when Yu Xian was a child!
âCan this⦠really ward off evil spirits?â Yu Xian was a little uncertain.
Such dance steps were even more frightening in the dark night.
âI donât know either. The witch danced like this.â Feng Yingying looked serious. âIf this really doesnât work⦠Master Yu, can you recite scriptures?â
âTao Te Ching or Diamond Sutra? I only know these two.â Yu Xian was quite embarrassed.
Initially, she did not know how to recite any of them, but her grandparents and uncles had locked her up for three years. During these three years, she could not even leave the courtyard. They forced her to embroider flowers and read the Lessons for Women, or she would copy scriptures and pray.
âIt should be fine, but since Young Lady Xie is reciting the Taoist scriptures, you can recite Tao Te Ching. Itâs better this way,â Feng Yingying suggested.
Yu Xian nodded.
She glanced at Xie Qiao who was sitting cross-legged. She copied her blindly.
She followed Xie Qiaoâs posture. She was a little conflicted as she watched Xie Qiaoâs fingers.
âYoung Lady Xie, are your fingers made of noodles? They must be soft. I canât do it.â
Her fingers were almost intertwined together, but there was an indescribable beauty to it. It looked very intimidating.
Yu Xian gave up and began to recite the incantation obediently.
Xie Qiao listened to the conversation between the two people beside her, and she almost collapsed.
Fortunately, they did not continue to talk nonsense after they were done discussing it. Otherwise, she would not be able to continue chanting the incantation.
When Xie Qiao was chanting, the ghoul that was approaching them looked in their direction with fear, not daring to come any closer.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
However, now that they had been discovered, coupled with the unique aura of the incantation that had suddenly appeared, it slowly attracted the attention of the other ghouls.
They began to fly over.
The leaves rustled, sounding like a drum that was pressing for death, making people uncomfortable.
âThese three have been following us during the day!â One of them jumped out from among the ghouls and pointed at Xie Qiao and the rest.
These ghouls excitedly circled around Xie Qiao.
An arm quietly crawled over, bit by bit, it approached like a snake.
Slowly, it reached Xie Qiaoâs side.
It tentatively touched her.
Then, it was gone in an instant.
The masterâs talisman and the incantation were no joke.
âMy arm is goneâ¦â the ghoul was instantly furious and hovered in the air, shouting at Xie Qiao non-stop, âGive me back my hand⦠Thatâs my hand, my hand!â
Xie Qiao pretended not to hear it.
âItâs useless even if we shout. This personâs talisman is very powerful! She must be a master who captures spirits.â
âBut she doesnât look like a Taoist master!â
âWhat do we do now?â
âEven though we canât get close, it will be a different story for the living creatures! Tsk,tskâ¦â
The group of ghouls grinned sinisterly, and there were many bats hovering in the air.
âWhy do I feel that itâs getting darker around here?â Yu Xian could not help but feel nervous. Just now, she could see two to three meters away, but now, she could not even see Feng Yingyingâs face clearly.
Xie Qiaoâs incantation suddenly stopped..
