A passerby in a horror movie

Chapter 18 The Holy Grail: Have the ability to get a reward from Wong Tai Sin?

"Okay, I'll help you look for it."

Seeing her younger brother's pleading look, Cissy softened.

Seeing this, Jack also started mobilizing the other members to help.

The news agency had many phone numbers and was in contact with many reporters. Cissy had her colleagues call Li Haotian while she contacted others to inquire about the news.

"The phone rang again. Looks like they believed me."

On the other side, Li Haotian, who had already arrived at Wong Tai Sin Temple, did not hang up the phone again, but answered it.

Actually, Li Haotian heard Xiaoming call him for the first time, but he didn't answer.

Firstly, he couldn't possibly get there that night, and secondly, he wanted to give the group a break. After all, you can't expect something for nothing; you'll only realize how capable he is when you're in a hurry.

"Hello, this is Li Haotian."

The call connected, and a woman's voice came from the other end.

Soon, the person on the other end of the phone was someone else.

“Mr. Li, I am Xiaoming. We met yesterday.”

“Mr. Li, you were right. I saw a female ghost in blue, and someone has already died. I know Rubbish and his gang were rude yesterday, and I apologize on their behalf. Could you please meet with us and help us?”

Xiao Ming pleaded.

Li Haotian's words came true, and Xiaoming and the others naturally wanted to ask him for help immediately.

"I have something to do right now. You'll have to come find me here this afternoon."

Li Haotian gave Xiaoming an address and told him to remember it before hanging up the phone.

He will definitely meet with Xiaoming and the others, but not now.

These people are now being targeted by Chu Renmei. If Li Haotian is not prepared, he might not only fail to save them, but he himself could also be implicated.

In the movie, Chu Renmei's killings are completely random.

Anyone who drinks water contaminated by her yin energy and is targeted by her will die. Even her nephew, Xiaoqiang, was killed because he revealed her past and was held in her hatred.

This kind of vengeful ghost is beyond communication and will not listen to advice.

Therefore, Li Haotian needs to seek help.

Upon entering Wong Tai Sin Temple, Li Haotian headed straight for the main hall.

It was still early morning, and there weren't many people coming to offer incense or visit. There was only one old Taoist priest in the main hall responsible for receiving visitors.

When Li Haotian entered the main hall, he looked up and saw the statue of Wong Tai Sin. Suddenly, he felt a strange sensation in his heart.

"Hello, if you want to offer incense, please come this way."

Upon seeing Li Haotian arrive at the statue, assuming he was a believer coming to offer incense, the Taoist priest Li Fude, who was in charge of receiving him, came over and said something.

Li Haotian followed him and offered a stick of incense respectfully before kneeling on the prayer mat.

“By the Great Immortal Wong, your disciple Li Haotian has inadvertently learned of a vengeful ghost harming people. I wish to stop it but am powerless to do so. I beg you, Great Immortal, to have mercy and guide me through this confusion.”

Li Haotian prayed softly to Wong Tai Sin, then knelt down to await a response.

However, after a while, Li Haotian did not notice anything unusual.

"Is it no use? Didn't you promise to grant every request?"

Li Haotian felt uneasy, wondering if his "divine communication" was not working, or if Huang Daxian simply didn't want to respond to him.

To show his sincerity, Li Haotian kowtowed several times and prayed repeatedly, but still received no response.

Li Haotian was somewhat disappointed and was about to get up and leave when he suddenly caught sight of the Holy Grail on the table. An idea struck him, and he went over and picked it up.

"try again."

Li Haotian prayed silently.

"Great Immortal, if you are willing to respond to me, please give me a reply."

"Clap."

As the Holy Grail fell, Li Haotian suddenly felt a gust of wind. The Holy Grail jumped up from the ground and spun several times before stopping.

"The Yin-Yang Cup, this is wonderful!"

Upon seeing the results, Li Haotian became excited.

The Yin-Yang Cup, also known as the Holy Cup, signifies that a request has been approved, indicating that Wong Tai Sin has responded to him.

Li Haotian tossed the divination cup twice more, and the result was the same: Yin-Yang Cup.

Having received a positive result, Li Haotian put down the Holy Grail and prepared to pray again.

At this moment, Li Fude, who had heard the commotion, came over.

"The Holy Grail? What are you asking about?"

Seeing Li Haotian throw out the Holy Grail, Li Fude also became interested.

This young man is quite fortunate to have received Wong Tai Sin's approval.

"This layman, if you have any questions, you can draw a divination stick. I am most skilled at interpreting divination sticks."

Li Fude said to Li Haotian.

He had been observing Li Haotian for a while. This young man had been kneeling for so long and had even cast the Holy Grail; something must have happened to him.

For the sake of the Holy Grail, he was willing to kindly help out.

Upon hearing Li Fude's words, Li Haotian's eyes lit up.

He was just thinking of finding help when the Taoist priest came over on his own.

"Taoist priest, do you know how to exorcise ghosts?"

Li Haotian got straight to the point.

Upon hearing Li Haotian's words, Li Fude was both amused and exasperated. He looked Li Haotian up and down, thinking to himself that this young man was too direct and had probably watched too many movies.

"Young man, don't tell me you've encountered a ghost. There's not a trace of yin energy on you."

Li Fude has been studying Taoism for decades. Although he hasn't learned any great skills, he can still detect whether a person has any yin energy.

"It wasn't me, it was some of my friends. They encountered a female ghost while playing a psychic game, and one of them has already died. I'm afraid something will happen to them too."

Li Haotian briefly explained the situation.

“Spiritual games? Sigh, you young people don’t believe in ghosts and gods normally, and you dare to do anything. Only when you encounter trouble do you know to come and worship gods.”

Li Fude shook his head and complained.

Based on Li Haotian's description, although he didn't see Xiaoming and the others, he could be fairly certain from the description that they were being haunted by ghosts.

Li Fude couldn't just stand by and watch someone die, so after thinking for a moment, he spoke up.

"Here's what I'll do. I'll give you a few exorcism talismans. Have them carry them with them and keep them dry. If everything is normal by tomorrow, then it's fine. If the talismans get hot or spontaneously combust, it's best to have them come over in person tomorrow."

As he spoke, Li Fude turned around and took out a box from behind the main hall, which contained some pre-made talismans.

"This is a really good thing, passed down from the old Taoist master. There are very few people who can draw this kind of talisman now."

Li Fude took out five talismans and handed them to Li Haotian without asking him for money.

However, Li Haotian also knew the rules. After accepting the talisman, he took out some banknotes from his backpack and put them into the donation box.

"Taoist Master, do you have any other magical artifacts? Ten or eight pieces would be fine, or even two or three..."

Li Haotian was still a little worried. Talismans alone were not enough. He had to face Chu Renmei, and one or two talismans might not be enough.

"Magic artifacts? Ten or eight of them? Do you think magic artifacts are made casually? If I had that many magic artifacts, I'd probably laugh myself to death."

Li Fude rolled his eyes at Li Haotian.

Ordinary people don't understand the intricacies of this, but Li Fude, who has cultivated for decades, knows it perfectly well.

Nowadays, there are not many people who can enter the Taoist path and cultivate themselves. Even drawing a talisman is ineffective, let alone making ritual implements.

Even someone as talented as him only managed to grasp the basics of the Dao after ten years of cultivation, and he hasn't made much progress since then. He gets exhausted just drawing ten or eight talismans a day.

That's already considered expert level.

The magical artifacts he possessed were passed down from the older generation; he could count them on one hand. He had used up a few in previous years, and kept the rest as treasures, unwilling to take them out.

"Aren't there quite a few on the offering table?"

Li Haotian pointed to some ritual implements on the offering table and asked.

"Those things are all newly placed there, they don't have much effect. I'm not lying to you. If you just want peace of mind or to ward off bad luck, they might be of some use, but when it comes to dealing with vengeful ghosts, they're no different from scrap metal."

Li Fude shook his head.

He was an honest man. If Li Haotian were just an ordinary worshipper, it wouldn't have mattered if he sold him a few "magical artifacts." But since the man had encountered a vengeful ghost, Li Fude didn't want to cheat him.

Seeing that Li Haotian was still not giving up, Li Fude pointed to the statue and said.

"If you're capable, it's not impossible to get Wong Tai Sin to bestow a few things upon you."

After saying that, he took the box and left.

Upon hearing this, Li Haotian's eyes lit up.
