At dusk, in the wing in the backyard of Tongqing Temple.

"I...where is this?"

When Li Yanran woke up from the coma, her memory still stayed in her conversation with Zen Master Lingyou.

"you're awake?"

Under the nervous watch of the surrounding maids, Huiji, who stopped chanting sutras, slowly opened her eyes.

"This is the wing of Tongqing Temple."

"The evil spirit in your body has been expelled by my master. You only need to rest for two days and your body will recover."

"If you still feel uncomfortable in any way, you can tell me now."

Listening blankly to Hui Ji's story, Li Yanran's mind gradually recalled everything that happened before she fell into coma.

"Father... saved my life again."

There was unconcealable bitterness in her eyes, and Li Yanran seemed to have returned to the night when she went to the Lu Mansion to attend the memorial ceremony.

At that time, just like today, the moment the evil ghost showed up to hurt someone, he was knocked unconscious by a thundering roar of a tiger.

Although Li Yanran didn't know what was fishy in this, she had experienced the "Night at Mulian Temple" and could vaguely sense that it was her dead father who was protecting her.

After all, everyone who attended the memorial ceremony that night died, but he was the only one lying unharmed at the door of the Lu Mansion. This was a bit unbelievable no matter how you thought about it.

"It seems you are not ignorant."

Hearing Li Yanran's murmur, Hui Ji couldn't help but raise her head and said in surprise.

"I'm not a fool, so how could I not know anything?"

Back at Mulian Temple, in order to protect Li Yanran, the tiger knocked out the ghosts before they appeared.

Li Lifu, who showed up later, also focused on protecting Li Yanran. As a result, she didn't know what happened the night before until she woke up the next day.

However, as Li Yanran said herself, she was not a fool and naturally guessed some of the truth.

Especially after contacting Yuan De again, Li Yanran probably understood that her father might not be a mortal, and she had no choice but to live in seclusion in Mulian Temple.

"After experiencing the frightening night in Lu Mansion, I immediately went to Mulian Temple."

"My intuition tells me that my father's disciple, Master Yuande, may be able to solve the confusion in my heart."

Things developed exactly as Li Yanran expected. After hearing Li Yanran's description, Yuan De immediately got up and headed to Changsha County.

It was from that day that Li Yanran was shocked to realize that there really were "gods" in this world.

Use your own power to break into the Lu Mansion, and use magical means to force out the evil Taoist priests hiding in the Lu Mansion...

Even if Li Yanran was just watching from a distance, she could deeply feel the tragedy of the battle at that time, which was beyond the imagination of ordinary mortals.

At the last moment, at the cost of heavy damage to himself, Yuan De forcibly dispersed the hundred ghosts controlled by the magic Taoist priest, and won the final victory in the battle.

Unfortunately, the magic Taoist priest finally escaped, and Yuande, who was seriously injured, had to admit the reality and asked Li Yanran to come to Tongqing Temple for help.

Because what Yuan De cultivates is the way of an ascetic, he follows the path of a physical Arhat, and he is not good at healing and salvation at all.

Whether it is the special situation of Li Yanran or the mortals who are still trapped in the Lu Mansion, it is beyond Yuan De's ability.

Only Huiji, who we had met once before, or the legendary Buddhist master Lingyou Zen Master, had the possibility of completely eradicating the evil ghost in the Lu family.

…………………………………………………………………………………………………………

"You mean, behind the haunting in Lu Mansion, there is an unknown magic Taoist priest who is causing trouble?"

After listening to Li Yanran's entire story, Hui Ji realized that the matter this time was not as simple as she thought.

He originally thought that this was just a simple haunting incident. At best, the evil spirit possessing Li Yanran was a little more ferocious and the characters involved were a little special.

However, judging from the current situation, what happened in the Lu Mansion is so complicated that it may have gone beyond ordinary haunting incidents.

"Yes, I suspect that the reason why my sister-in-law turned into a ghost must have something to do with that evil Taoist priest."

He nodded understandingly, Hui Ji felt the same way.

Being able to successfully escape from Yuande's hands, that magic Taoist priest cannot be a simple person no matter how you think about it.

Even though Yuan De was defeated by Hui Ji, in fact, he was able to achieve such an achievement at this age, which is already a genius that has not been seen in Buddhism for hundreds of years.

Especially in terms of frontal combat and confrontation, Yuande, who practices asceticism, can be called the closest thing to a "Golden Arhat" in the world.

"What about Yuande?"

Thinking of this, Hui Ji suddenly asked again.

With Yuande's character, Huiji felt that it was impossible for him to let the magic Taoist go so easily.

In the previous conversation with Zen Master Lingyou, Li Yanran seemed to have intentionally or unintentionally ignored the situation on Yuande's side.

"Master Yuande has been tracking the magic Taoist priest since that day. It has been about half a month since today, right?"

There was a flash of worry in his eyes, Li Yanran was not an ungrateful person.

In addition to rescuing relatives who were trapped in the Lu Mansion and still unknown whether they were alive or dead, another reason why Li Yanran came to Weishan this time was to find a helper for Yuan De.

"Has it been half a month already?"

Huiji also heard the meaning of Li Yanran's words and couldn't help showing a thoughtful look.

Although Yuande is an ascetic and is not very good at tracking magical powers, the fact that the sorcerer Taoist priest can delay it till now is enough to show his ability.

"Master Yuande...he..."

To be honest, Li Yanran is actually very conflicted right now.

On the one hand, he is his uncle who treats him as his own and loves him infinitely; on the other hand, he is the monk Yuande who does not hesitate to risk his own life to help him.

No matter where an accident occurs between the two parties, it is not what Li Yanran wants to see.

However, now that things have come to this, Li Yanran still prefers to let Monk Huiji and Zen Master Lingyou go to Changsha County first to save her uncle.

Because in her opinion, since Master Yuande has not heard from him for half a month, the possibility of finding him quickly is very small.

Instead of wasting time looking for Yuande, it would be better to go to Lu Mansion to see the specific situation.

I have to say that Li Yanran's idea is very selfish, but in her own opinion, it is just human nature.

Under the premise that Yuan De was just a stranger, Li Yanran did not choose to hide it, but calmly handed over the choice to Hui Ji, which was already a very magnanimous performance.

"Well, I probably understand."

"Don't worry, just leave the rest to us."
