Chapter 209: Looking for a Taoist Priest
In her opinion, Lin Yuelan, who had been resurrected from the dead, was a demon. Therefore, a priest was needed to exorcise her. That was why she gave this suggestion.
As soon as she finished speaking, the others fell silent.
Liu Dongmei pointed out sharply, “Hmph, that girl’s divine power and abilities were bestowed by the King of Hell. Do you think that a priest can take away those things so easily?”
Mao Er’s mother continued, “But are those really gifts from the King of Hell?”
“Liu Sanxiu, what do you mean by that?” Lin Chong’s wife immediately asked, “Hasn’t the jinx proven that she has come back from the King of Hell’s palace?”
Liu Sanxiu said fearfully, “I ... I heard that there’s a kind of demon who specializes in catching people’s souls and even controlling them. So, I think the jinx is...”
“So, you’re saying she’s this kind of demon. She has captured Da Mao’s father’s spirit and controlled him?”
Liu Sanxie didn’t reply.
The others also seemed to have fallen into deep thought.
Did Lin Yuelan know about this?
Of course, she knew. Every grass and rock was her ears and eyes, so how could she not know?
Lin Yuelan, who was sitting on the tiger’s back, gently stroked Little Green. The corners of her mouth curled up in a mocking arc as she sneered, “Liu Sanxiu? Fine. I’ll see what kind of Taoist priest you’d find to exorcise me!”
It was almost dark when Lin Yuelan got home.
Guo Bing and the others had already returned home. From afar, they saw a young woman riding on an awe-inspiring big white tiger, and their worries from the past few days were immediately dispelled.
He raised his hand and waved at them. “Little White, I haven’t seen you for a few days. Why have you gained weight again?”
Guo Bing seemed to have gotten into a friendly competition with Little White.
Every time little white saw Guo Bing, it would cast a look of disdain at him. Guo Bing felt defeated at first, but then after he regained his morale, he started to retort with his own verbal jabs. For example, he’d say that Little White’s fur was not white enough, it was not tall and strong enough, and so on.
When little white heard this, it picked up its pace.
It came to Guo Bing and roared at him, giving him a disdainful look. Then, it sent Lin Yuelan home.
When Jiang Zhennan passed by Guo Bing, he also gave Guo Bing a look of disdain. ‘Isn’t it embarrassing for a man to argue with a tiger?’
Guo Bing touched the bridge of his nose and then chuckled, “Boss, you look so cute carrying that small basket on your back. Haha...”
Jiang Zhennan turned a deaf ear to Guo Bing’s mockery.
In the yard, he first put down the cloth bag, then put the pheasants and rabbits in the chicken shed and the rabbit nest. It was obvious that he did this every day. Finally, he put down the small basket.
Guo Bing walked in and saw Lin Yuelan standing next to the chicken shed. She seemed to be thinking about catching a chicken. He immediately went up and asked carefully, “Miss Lin, what are you cooking tonight?”
Lin Yuelan glanced at him and said indifferently, “Chicken Mushroom stew!”
“Chicken Mushroom stew?” Guo Bing already wanted to drool when he heard the name of the dish. Back then, they had spent one tael of silver on buying a mushroom. But now, they could eat Chicken Mushroom stew. Just thinking about the delicious taste made them drool.
Guo Bing stepped forward to flatter her. “Miss Lin, did you know? During the few days when you weren’t home, we had terrible meals. We only had hard buns with plain water and salted vegetables. It’s a good thing that you’re back now, Miss Lin. We miss you so much.”
These were Guo Bing’s true feelings. As soldiers, they were used to tasteless food. They often needed to rely on dry food on the battlefield. However, after eating Lin Yuelan’s dishes, they finally understood the meaning of good cooking.
