These punches were so powerful that Uncle Jiu staggered and almost fell to the ground.

Uncle Jiu was shocked and angry. He knew very well that Qiu Sheng had been bewitched by the female ghost, but the situation was critical. If he didn't fight back, he would probably be hurt by Qiu Sheng.

So, he gritted his teeth, made up his mind, decided not to show mercy, and used his strength to fight Qiu Sheng.

At this critical moment, Ren Yinyin, who had been watching, suddenly took action.

She quickly reached into the bag she was carrying and fumbled around for a while, and in the blink of an eye she pulled out an antique Bagua mirror.

Then, she rushed to the door, stood firmly, raised the Bagua mirror high, and shone it directly on the female ghost who was trying to escape!

In an instant, a dazzling light shot out from the Bagua mirror and hit the female ghost Xiaoyu directly.

"Ah—it hurts!" Accompanied by an extremely shrill scream, Xiaoyu was like being slapped by an invisible big hand. Her whole body flew backwards and fell heavily to the ground.

Xiaoyu was already overwhelmed by pain and anger. She stared at Ren Yinyin fiercely and roared, "You damned girl, I'm going to make sure you die without a burial place today!"

After saying that, she stretched out her pair of ghost claws that were as white as bones and extremely sharp, and with a sharp sound of wind, she pounced towards Ren Yinyin like lightning.

However, Ren Yinyin was only a half-baked Taoist after all, and the previous attack almost exhausted the magic power that the Bagua Mirror had nurtured for many years.

Seeing the female ghost coming at her aggressively, she was immediately frightened and turned pale. She cried out in horror, "Master, help!" and ran away in panic with her head in her hands.

Uncle Jiu, who was fighting with Qiu Sheng, heard his little apprentice's cry and thought to himself that something was wrong.

He kicked Qiu Sheng, who was pestering him, to the ground, and then shook his wrist, and the peach wood sword in his hand instantly emitted a dazzling red light.

With a wave of his arm, the peach wood sword shot towards Xiaoyu like an arrow.

Uncle Jiu himself was even more swift, and with a flash of his body, he leaped towards where Ren Yinyin was at lightning speed.

Seeing Uncle Jiu coming at her aggressively, Xiaoyu knew she would not be able to gain any advantage today. So she glared at Ren Yinyin fiercely, then turned around and turned into a puff of black smoke, quickly fleeing the scene.

When Uncle Jiu saw the female ghost running away, he did not chase after her immediately. Instead, he rushed to Ren Yinyin's side first, tore off his Taoist robe, and quickly covered the frightened Ren Yinyin tightly.

At this moment, there was a series of deafening "boom" noises, mixed with an extremely shrill scream...

"Oh no, Qiu Sheng!" Uncle Jiu lifted up his Taoist robe and felt embarrassed when he saw the messy and dusty room.

He said he seemed to have forgotten something...

"Help!" Qiu Sheng's voice came from under the collapsed wooden board.

"Qiu Sheng!" Uncle Jiu hurried to move the wood away.

"Pah," Ren Yinyin wiped the dust off his face, even the dust in his mouth, and looked around, exclaiming, "The decoy is gone!"

Qiu Sheng, who was dragged out, looked at his master and junior sister with resentment. They had agreed to be a loving family, so why did they leave him alone to suffer?

Ren Yinyin winked at Uncle Jiu from behind, signaling Qiu Sheng to look into his master's eyes.

I've been beaten black and blue by your rebellious disciple, what else do you want?

Qiu Sheng glanced at his master and his expression changed instantly, becoming sad and worried.

The master is very narrow-minded, and I don’t know how to deal with him!

"Hmph, none of them is worry-free!" Uncle Jiu glared at Qiu Sheng, turned around and walked away with his hands behind his back.

……

The next day

"Tell me, where did you go to provoke that female ghost?" Uncle Jiu grabbed Qiu Sheng and questioned him early in the morning.

They came back too late last night. Uncle Jiu brought his two apprentices back without saying much and went to rest.

Qiu Sheng looked a little better than yesterday. Fortunately, Uncle Jiu and Ren Yinyin arrived in time last night, and he and the female ghost hadn't gotten into trouble yet. Otherwise...

"Fortunately we discovered it early!" Wencai said from the side.

"It's a good thing we discovered it late!" Qiu Sheng said shockingly.

Uncle Jiu, Wencai, and Ren Yinyin all looked at Qiu Sheng at the same time, not knowing what he meant by that.

Qiu Sheng said in a dazed tone, "If I had known this earlier, wouldn't this good thing have happened?"

Uncle Jiu was furious when he heard this, and started hitting Qiu Sheng with a wooden stick, calling him a bastard who was "obsessed with lust and would never repent"!

"Master, Master, spare me!" Qiu Sheng ran around the room in pain.

Wencai and Ren Yinyin watched the excitement from a distance...

After a long while, when Uncle Jiu put down the stick panting, Qiu Sheng didn't know where to cover his body. His whole body was in pain, and he was grimacing, looking extremely embarrassed!

"Master, when I was going home..." Qiu Sheng said with a sad face that it was none of his business, but suddenly he seemed to think of something.

He remembered!

Xiaoyu!

Wasn't that the one he and Wencai met when they stayed at the cemetery to burn incense after Old Master Ren's coffin was taken to the charity cemetery?

At that time, Qiu Sheng was quick-witted. Seeing that the girl on the tombstone was only 20 years old, he said, "What a pity!"

Then I heard someone say “Thank you!”

Twice in a row!

The first time I could have said I misheard, but the second time...

Qiu Sheng knew at that moment that he had seen a ghost!

But later, because Old Master Ren turned into a zombie, he forgot about this matter!

Who would have thought that a few days later, while hiding from the rain, this would actually...

"Did you remember?" Uncle Jiu sat on the chair, took a sip of tea, looked at Qiu Sheng whose expression kept changing, and asked in a cold voice.

Qiu Sheng smiled awkwardly, "Master, she, that female ghost, seems to be the one we encountered in the cemetery when Old Master Ren was moving the coffin!"

After Qiu Sheng’s explanation, Uncle Jiu understood the situation!

"I told you all not to talk too much, especially when dealing with ghosts and gods. Look at you, you got into trouble this time because of your nonsense!" Uncle Jiu glared at Qiu Sheng unhappily.

"Master, what should we do?" Ren Yinyin was a little worried. The female ghost yesterday didn't seem like she would give up just like that.

"Yes, Master, I get scared when I think there's a female ghost staring at us outside the charity cemetery!" Wencai also said.

"What are you afraid of?" Qiu Sheng muttered recklessly, "Does Xiaoyu really like you?"

"Are you feeling proud?" Uncle Jiu scolded Qiu Sheng. "How can you still practice Taoism and martial arts if you're involved with ghosts?"

After being scolded by his master, Qiu Sheng didn't dare to speak!

"Go and copy books!" Uncle Jiu sent Qiu Sheng back to his room without any concern or annoyance.

"Master!" Ren Yinyin and Wencai were a little worried.

"Don't worry," Uncle Jiu said with a bad face and anger in his eyes, "If she doesn't dare to come, it's fine. If she dares to come again, I'll call her, humph!"

Uncle Jiu hadn’t finished speaking, but both of his disciples understood his meaning!

This time, the female ghost really offended Uncle Jiu!

If given the chance, Uncle Jiu will not let the female ghost go!

Wencai and Ren Yinyin looked at each other. Qiu Sheng didn’t seem to have no feelings for that female ghost!

"Wencai, Yinyin, when it gets dark, tie up Qiu Sheng!" Uncle Jiu thought for a while and was a little worried that Qiu Sheng would be deceived again!

"I understand, Master!" Wencai and Ren Yinyin agreed.
