062: Poisoned or poisoned
Nan Li was startled: "Is that Mr. Song?"
Her fifth brother was shy and only interacted with one person in the academy, named Song Zihan.
Song Zihan came to Anyang as a guest at the Marquis Mansion. He was only sixteen years old. Although he came from a poor family, he was knowledgeable and talented, and his temperament was humble and polite.
Chu Yan nodded hurriedly, "Yes, he has been possessed. Master has ordered people to tie him up."
He knew that his sixth sister had the ability to exorcise evil spirits, so he immediately went back to his house to call for help.
As soon as Nan Li heard that something was serious, he took the bag and put it on his back, "Then let's go quickly."
On the carriage, Chu Yan calmed down a little and then seemed a little embarrassed, "Sixth sister, how much money do you charge for exorcising evil spirits?"
He had seen the sign in the front yard and knew that Sixth Sister's charges were not low, and it was a lot of money to hire someone to visit her.
He doesn't have much money, and Brother Song spent a lot of money from his family to study in Kyoto. No matter how hard the two of them scrape together, they can't even make a hundred taels now.
Nan Li said: "Fifth brother finally troubled me once, how could I accept your money?"
The fifth brother was born in a pitiable background, so she didn't care about the money.
Chu Yan was stunned for a moment, his eyes were slightly hot, and he said: "No way, the sixth sister already spends a lot of time drawing talismans on weekdays, how can she not charge money?"
Nan Li rolled her eyes and said with a smile: "Then just one tael of silver."
Chu Yan still wanted to say no, but Nan Li changed the topic and asked what happened.
It turned out that Egret Academy was about to hold a debate, and Song Zihan was a scholar and had some reputation, so he also received an invitation from Egret Academy.
Song Zihan was going to leave tomorrow, but something suddenly happened today.
He fell into a coma in school in the morning, and when he woke up he started biting people like crazy, looking completely possessed.
Just as Chu Yan finished speaking, the carriage arrived at Ivy Academy.
This Ivy Academy is the largest academy in Kyoto. The students it accepts do not care about wealth, but only about talent and learning. It is not expensive to study, so there are also many children from poor families studying in the academy.
Because of Song Zihan's madness, there were no classes in the academy at this time.
When Chu Yan asked, he learned that the masters had invited a Taoist priest to come to the house and asked them to exorcise Song Zihan from evil spirits, and everyone had gone to the backyard.
When they arrived in the backyard, they saw Song Zihan tied to a wooden stake. He was still grinning and staring fiercely at people.
The Taoist priest was wearing a gray robe, holding a bell in one hand, making fingerprints with the other hand, and chanting incantations in his mouth, so humming that it was impossible to hear what he was saying.
Then, he put down the bell, sprinkled the talisman water first, then took out a cane, and said slowly, "Now, I am going to beat out the evil spirit."
A gray-haired master said: "This...will this hurt someone?"
Song Zihan is a student with outstanding knowledge and cannot be beaten to the point where he cannot pick up a pen.
"This evil spirit is very powerful, and everything is uncertain." The Taoist priest stroked his beard, "He is now haunted by the evil spirit, and it is not easy to save his life. Don't worry about whether he will be injured or not."
The masters looked at each other and finally could only nod.
If Song Zihan was injured in this way, it would also be his life. Who allowed him to be possessed by evil spirits?
Some of the onlookers looked intolerable, some were gloating over the misfortune, and some even shouted to be beaten quickly.
The Taoist priest had already attached the talisman to the rattan and raised his hand to swipe it away from Song Zihan.
Just as he was about to pull it out, a young girl came over and pinched the Taoist priest's hand: "You are not trying to pull out the evil spirits by pulling out the cane, but you are trying to kill people, right?"
The Taoist priest was stunned.
Seeing that Nan Li was a few points shorter than him, he didn't pay attention to her. He narrowed his eyes and shouted: "You're in the way, little girl. This person will break free of the rope later. Why don't you retreat?"
Down!"
He wanted to withdraw his hand, but Nan Li held it tightly and didn't move at all.
"Is the Taoist priest's talisman so useless? It can't suppress evil spirits?" Nan Li mocked.
Everyone looked at each other and started talking about it.
The Taoist priest lost his composure and became a little angry: "It's not that the poor Taoist's talisman is useless, it's that this evil spirit is extremely ferocious and is no small matter!"
The gray-haired master frowned, dissatisfied with Nan Li coming out to cause trouble, "Girl, you are not an academy student, please leave as soon as possible."
"Young Master Song is not haunted by evil spirits. This Taoist priest has no skills at all and just wants to cheat here?" Nan Li's voice was sonorous and every word was crisp.
The Taoist priest snorted coldly, "You are a little girl, can you see the evil spirit?! Get out of the way. If the time is delayed, the evil spirit will be difficult to deal with."
Nan Li raised her lips, "I can still tell whether it's evil or poisoning."
The Taoist priest's expression changed, but he quickly regained his composure and said angrily: "The poor Taoist misunderstood, it turns out that you are also haunted by evil spirits!"
He shouted and asked someone to quickly bring a rope and tie Nan Li up, otherwise she would go crazy later and it would be difficult to deal with her.
Chu Yan, who was always taciturn, rushed out, opened his hands to protect Nan Li, and said with sharp eyes, "My sister is very powerful. No evil spirit can get close to her. If any of you dare to touch her, I will fight with you!"
Everyone had never thought of Chu Yan like this, and they were so frightened that they did not dare to step forward for a while.
But a student stepped forward and said: "Chu Yan, your sister is just a little girl, why can't evil spirits get close to her? Come back soon, or she will bite you later."
This statement was echoed by many people, who all asked Chu Yan to retreat quickly.
When the student saw this, he raised the corner of his mouth and said, "Just now you saw Song Zihan going crazy. He even bit off other people's flesh. We have to take a preemptive strike and tie them up together!"
Even the master's expression changed, and he was obviously frightened, and said: "Tie them up, and let the Taoist priest exorcise Zihan first."
Nan Li had already waited for what she wanted to wait for, so she was too lazy to be polite and just crushed the Taoist priest's hand bones.
As he screamed, she had already snatched away the cane, and with one movement, she had already pulled out the student who had just spoken.
She smiled and said: "I think you are also possessed by an evil spirit and are talking nonsense. Let me exorcise the evil spirit for you too."
She controlled her strength and pulled out the cane. No blood was seen, but it made the students scream in pain.
"Chu Yan!" The student burst into tears, "Let your sister stop! Let her stop!"
"Li Cheng, my sister is helping you exorcise evil spirits. Why are you shouting?" Chu Yan said.
Li Cheng panicked and tried to climb out in a hurry, but Nan Li stepped on his clothes again.
Seeing that the cane in Nan Li's hand was about to be pulled out again, he was so frightened that he panicked, "Master! Master! She wants to beat me to a disability, please save me! Save me!"
"I only hit you twice, how could I make you disabled?" Nan Li hit you again and her eyes widened, "Yeah, you're bleeding like this."
