is fate; alas!"Seeing Xiao Yu get into the car, since Zhong Jianguo was older, he glanced at Xiao Yu without speaking while Zhong Tao glared fiercely at Xiao Yu as if wanting to eat him alive.Xiao Yu...Chapter 197: Resolution
"Doctor, can you take a look" At this moment, the teacher came out of the fortune-teller's house with some papers and walked up to Xiao Yu.
The parents of those students were also looking at Xiao Yu nervously. If Xiao Yu said it couldn't be done, they wouldn't know what to do next.
Xiao Yu looked at the pictures held by the teacher. Although these pictures were drawn with ballpoint pens, each one was vividly lifelike. Watching them, Xiao Yu nodded and said, "It's possible. Hold onto these drawings and start placing them here one by one until you reach the zoo entrance!"
Despite their apprehension, when they heard what Xiao Yu had to say, the parents of those girls gritted their teeth, picked up the pictures, and began laying them out one by one. Due to a light breeze outside, they initially used some stones to hold down the drawings before arranging them along the roadside all the way to the zoo entrance.
"The four of you should stand here!" Xiao Yu pointed to where the girls' fathers were standing beside their pictures.
"Once I say start, light up the first picture. After lighting it, quickly run to the second one and wait for my command before proceeding in sequence; don't make any mistakes!"
Seeing that each of the girls' fathers had taken a position next to their respective pictures, Xiao Yu began explaining the steps.
Xiao Yu glanced at the several girls in the courtyard and said to the parents, "Ready."
As his words echoed out, he stood in darkness with one hand making intricate gestures to form an arcane seal. As this seal took shape, an invisible force began swirling around Xiao Yu's palm.
"Begin."
After forming the seal, Xiao Yu called out to the parents of the girls.
The parents quickly crouched down and used lighters to ignite the papers on the ground. Upon being lit, a small flame slowly burned at one corner of each drawing.
The fathers, after lighting their respective drawings, swiftly ran away towards the second picture, standing there awaiting Xiao Yu's command!
Seeing these flames burning, Xiao Yu pushed forward with the seal in his hand, causing an invisible energy wave to blow onto the burning papers on the ground.
"Boom!"
When this intangible wave blew across the drawing papers, the paper that had only been partially burned suddenly let out a loud roaring sound. Immediately after, flames erupted fiercely, and in no time at all, the entire sheet of paper turned to ashes.
The teachers and parents watching from the courtyard did not see anything unusual about this pile of ashes, but they were puzzled as to why Xiao Yu had yet to prompt them to light the second drawing despite the first one being reduced to ashes.
Xiao Yu opened his Yin-Yang eyes and watched several piles of ashes. Suddenly, a gentle breeze blew through, scattering the ashes of those drawings.
Instantly when the ashes were blown apart by the wind, four items—formed from black mist: peaches, sheep, beehives, and chickens—suddenly appeared at the spot where the papers had turned to ashes.
In Xiao Yu's Yin-Yang vision, the sheep and chicken seemed like living creatures, standing still but constantly moving around. Looking at these four items that looked so real, a slightly satisfied smile curled up on the corners of his mouth.
As soon as these things appeared, the four girls who had previously been jumping about lay motionless on the ground, staring intently with shining eyes and drooling mouths at what was before them.
"Snap snap snap"
The medium saw that the girls were lying still on the ground and started cracking her whip more urgently. The sound of the whip hitting the air could be heard more frequently.
Regardless of how hard she whipped, those girls did not move at all; they stared ahead with saliva dripping from their mouths but didn't bother to wipe it away.
The parents and teachers watching these girls shuddered as if they had been electrified. Wang Fang and several male students were already hiding in a corner, trembling while watching everything unfold.
Xiao Yu observed the girls and saw that the yin qi on their bodies was surging chaotically when those things appeared.
Gradually, as the four girls lay on the ground staring at what was before them for longer periods of time, they grew more entranced. Soon after, the thick yin qi on their bodies slowly started to separate from them.
The moment these yin qi separated from the girls' bodies, those girls who had been staring ahead with unblinking eyes suddenly shuddered and fainted.
The yin qi that had separated from the girls twisted and transformed in front of the girls, quickly forming into shapes resembling animals: a wolf, bear, fox, and monkey. The spirits of these four creatures pounced onto the items before them on the ashes of the drawings with great appetite.
"Don't move! You guys help carry them to the car!
When Xiao Yu saw the parents standing by the paper trying to run over, he quickly stopped them and turned to address these girls' teachers, parents, and classmates.
"Oh... Oh..."
The mothers, teachers, and classmates of the girls were standing in a corner, dazed. Upon hearing Xiao Yu's words, they responded nervously in succession.
When these people approached the girls and saw them fainted on the ground, pushing them did not elicit any response. So they carried the girls to the minibus.
"Take them to my clinic first. Come back for us later."
As these people carried the girls past Xiao Yu, he said calmly to them.
"Yes, doctor!" They quickly responded and hurriedly helped the girls onto the minibus which sped away instantly.
"Keep going..."
Xiao Yu saw that the souls of these animals were about to finish what was in front of them. He shouted at the fathers of those girls.
When Xiao Yu saw that several people had lit the papers placed there, he gently pushed his hand seals toward the direction of the papers. An invisible wave surged out from Xiao Yu's push and headed towards the papers.
The moment this invisible wave passed through these drawings, they seemed to have been suddenly doused with gasoline as flames shot up skyward, reducing them to ashes in an instant.
These animal souls appeared to lack any intelligence. After finishing what was before them, they saw a sheep, chicken, beehive, and peach right ahead of them. They lunged forward to eat without hesitation.
Xiao Yu directed the parents of these girls one by one to light the drawings. The four animal souls seemed insatiable; after finishing what was before them, they fiercely pounced on another item.
Following their favorite food, these four animal souls gradually walked onto the street.
The medium stood in the courtyard and whipped the air furiously while emitting piercing shrieks. However, it did not have any effect. These animal souls continued to follow the food step by step toward the street.
Seeing that she could not control these animal souls, the medium's face twisted in anger. Suddenly, her body was enveloped by a tremor of yin煞qi (malevolent energy), and a black ghost figure emerged from her body.
This black shadow appeared and rushed towards the spirits of those animals.
The moment the black ghost emerged from the shaman's body, there was a loud clang as she fell stiffly to the ground.
"Support her into the house. Then light up an incense burner at the entrance and keep it burning all night until dawn."
Upon seeing the ghost emerge from the shaman’s body, Xiao Yu instructed the shaman's family members who were rushing to help her. Whether they would heed his advice was beyond his control.
"Thank you! Thank you!"
The shaman's relatives thanked Xiao Yu repeatedly upon hearing his instructions.
“Oh, by the way, remind her when she wakes up to stop doing spirit-summoning rituals in the future. Otherwise, she won't have a peaceful end."
A person with no cultivation background might control weak spirits if they were summoned, provided some compensation was offered. However, if powerful evil spirits were brought forth, it wouldn’t be resolved by just offering small compensations.
If such malevolent entities appeared, the most fortunate outcome would involve them merely absorbing the summoner's vital energy.
Furthermore, individuals like this shaman, who frequently summoned ghosts and spirits, accumulated residual yin煞energy on their bodies. Unlike practitioners of Qimen (a branch of Chinese metaphysics), they lacked methods to regulate and eliminate such residues.
If left unchecked for a long time, the accumulated residual yin煞energy could cause blood coagulation issues. While this might not be apparent when one is young due to abundant vital energy, it could lead to sudden heart attacks upon reaching middle age.
Upon hearing Xiao Yu’s words, the shaman's family members halted in their tracks momentarily but didn't respond and continued walking towards the house.
They dared not agree with Xiao Yu; his appearance indicated he was likely a professional like them. Who knew if he intended to stop operations here and monopolize this market
One must understand that these shamans made substantial profits, earning hundreds of yuan daily at minimum, sometimes even thousands. Meeting a wealthy patron could result in tens of thousands in income within a day. Hence, despite knowing the risks involved, they would likely continue their practices.
Faced with this attitude from the shaman's family, Xiao Yu shook his head helplessly; he had done all that was possible on his part. Whether or not they chose to heed his advice wasn’t within his control anymore.
The parents of those girls followed Xiao Yu’s instructions and lit up these drawings one by one. With the burning of these drawings, the spirits of the animals started heading towards the zoo, while that human ghost trailed behind them with a fierce gaze but powerless to intervene, following the animals into the zoo.hen they could give it a try, this way even if someone else cured him, it wouldn’t be considered embarrassing or damaging Elder Yue's reputation since he was outmatched and thus not to blame.After hea...
