Searching for Treasures in the Clouds

Chapter 266: Exorcism

Seeing Yu Ru like this, Yun Jixing subconsciously wanted to go over to her to check on her. "Brother Yuan, no!" Shanren stopped him in time, "We don't know what's going on with my sister-in-law yet, don't go over there casually, if she's possessed by an evil spirit, she'll go berserk and you'll be dead. Let your bodyguard let my sister-in-law go and come back."

"Okay..." Yun Jixing didn't dare to delay and immediately called Sister Shan to let go of Yu Ru and walk back. At the same time, he bent down and held Gu Xian'an to prevent him from passing. "Woof woof! Woof woof!" Gu Xian'an struggled violently, his eyes fixed on where Yu Ru was.

Sister Shan looked down at Yu Ru, hesitated for a moment, took off her coat, rolled it into a ball and put it under Yu Ru's head, then gently laid her on the ground, letting her lie flat, and then left her side. "Madam, please wake up soon." She prayed silently.

"Sister Ping and Sister Yuan, the two of you hold Gu Xian'an down and don't let him get close to the Madam." Yun Jixing thought that he had to take care of Yu Ru and had no time to watch Gu Xian'an, so he asked Sister Ping and Sister Yuan to hold the dog down.

After a few minutes, Yu Ru, who was lying on the ground, woke up. She half opened her eyes and tried to look in front of her. She saw Yun Jixing, the three female bodyguards who were stationed at home, and an unfamiliar young man standing there looking at her about ten meters away.

The floor beneath her was very cold, and the chill made her body stiff. She tried hard to turn over, lying on her side, and with one hand on the ground, she stood up with difficulty. At the same time as she stood up, the wind suddenly blew around her. At first it was just a breeze, but soon it developed into a strong gale.

"Woo——"

"Woo——"

The strong wind howled across the yard, flowers and leaves fluttered like paper money thrown by ghosts, and the branches trembled as if they would break at any moment.

Except for Yu Ru, the others turned their heads to look at the sudden strange phenomenon in the yard in confusion. "Everyone, be ready to escape. If my sister-in-law looks abnormal, don't hesitate, run immediately. My sister-in-law's energy is thousands of times stronger than that of ordinary people. Don't even think about resisting!" Shanren reminded loudly.

After reminding this side, he shouted to Yu Ru, "Sister-in-law, don't leave that formation, just stay where you are! That formation can protect you."

Yu Ru stood up completely, and her eyes were fully open, but her eyes looked a little empty. She stood there blankly, like a wooden stake without a soul, as if she didn't hear what Shanren said just now. She just stood there, doing nothing, but Shanren didn't dare to let down his guard. He held a talisman in his left hand and a peach wood sword in his right hand, standing with his feet staggered, ready to sprint at any time.

He would not move until Yu Ru stopped moving. After all, even Zhu Yun could not remove the curse on Yu Ru for the time being, let alone him. He did not dare to act rashly for fear of hurting Yu Ru by mistake.

After Yu Ru stood up, the fierce wind gradually stopped and finally died down, and the world became quiet. The flowers, plants, and trees shattered the moonlight, and under the shadows, the sound of insect wings fluttering suddenly emerged from the darkness, and the moist breathing of some ground cover plants could be heard from various small gaps.

Yu Ru fainted again. She stood up for less than a minute before falling to the ground.

"Aru!" Yun Jixing saw her faint and ran towards her without caring anything.

Coming to her side, he knelt on the ground and carefully lifted her up, stretched out a hand to feel her breath, and pulled her hair to check if she had any bumps. Yu Ru looked fine, so he took up one of her hands and felt her pulse.

He was not a professional doctor, but he had learned how to feel a pulse and could make some simple judgments. As soon as he felt Yu Ru's pulse, his heart sank to the soles of his feet. Yu Ru's pulse was very weak. It was fine during the day, but now it suddenly became bad.

"Brother Yuan, let me see." Shanren came over in a hurry. He squatted on one knee, put down the sword in his hand, stretched out a hand to open Yu Ru's eyelids and check her pupils.

"It's bad. My sister-in-law has lost one of her souls. Hurry and take her back to her room. I will perform a ritual to protect the rest of her soul."

"Okay." Yun Jixing hurriedly picked up Yu Ru and ran into the house with her. Shanren followed him closely.

On the dark side of a mountain in Shuicheng,

Most of the mountain was pitch black, but in this quiet forest, a group of people were engaged in a fierce fight. Thirty-three lanterns were hung around the place where they were, and the lanterns glowed with a dark red blood light. Because the wicks were made of blood-stained menstrual cloth, the lanterns emitted an extremely greasy smell while shining. The earth seemed to crack, oozing out a faint blue light. Nine bronze coffins stood on the ground in the nine directions, and the talismans painted with corpse oil on the coffin lids were smoking and making a sound like an electric current.

"Zizzi-"

There were three men in black robes standing behind the coffins, one of them holding a white snake bone staff, waving it and chanting a spell. The head of the staff was carved into the shape of a skull, and there was something embedded in the two eyes that glowed. As the black-robed man chanted the spell, the light from the snake eyes became stronger and stronger.

At the same time, the bronze coffins began to tremble, and a frightening metal knocking sound came from inside. Densely packed red fly head symbols gradually appeared on the coffins.

"Tian Gang Bei Dou Formation, rise!" Zhu Yun's Taoist robe fluttered like clouds and mist, and the six Taoist friends behind him stepped on the Yu Step. The flames of the yellow talismans they threw out formed star tracks in the hazy night.

At this time, the bronze coffins opened their doors with a bang, and nine six-foot-tall strange creatures walked out. They looked like a random patchwork of mud, garbage, and blood. The most disgusting and terrifying thing was that they were covered with hideous human faces all over their bodies, as if they were made of dozens of human heads and kneaded like dough.

"Roar——" This thing was neither human nor ghost. The roar it made sounded like a wild beast, mixed with some sharp explosions.

When the monster roared, its mouth opened wide, a full eight inches in size, and countless translucent vengeful spirits glowing green gushed out of its mouth and rushed towards Zhu Yun and the others.

Zhu Yun and the other seven people who participated in setting up the formation immediately chanted the Tiangang Body Protection Spell together. A golden air shield suddenly appeared in front of them, blocking the vengeful spirits that were rushing over.

The other Taoist priests simultaneously shook the soul-calming bells engraved with talismans. When the multiple sound waves swept over the vengeful spirits, the vengeful spirits suddenly changed direction and fled in all directions. The two Taoist priests took the opportunity to throw more than a dozen thunder talismans into the open mouths of the nine monsters that were neither human nor ghost. "Kan water is used as a guide, and Li fire burns the evil!"

"Boom!" Half of the monster's face was blown off by the thunder talisman, and it immediately fell into a manic state, rushing forward like a headless fly.
