Lucky Farmer Girl: I rely on metaphysics to support my family

Chapter 718 Suffering
After a long while, Mrs. Luo finally recovered from her shock and turned to Boss Wan, asking in a somewhat unsteady voice, "Then... what should we do now?"

"Come inside with me and take a look!" Boss Wan replied after thinking carefully for a moment.

The master didn't give any other instructions, just said that canceling the formation would allow others to enter, presumably to let them in.

Moreover, the Wu family's affairs also need to be dealt with.

Mrs. Luo nodded slightly in agreement when she heard what Mr. Wan said.

As the group stepped into the courtyard, they were met with a scene of utter chaos.

The aftershocks of the fierce battle were not limited to the entrance of the Buddhist hall; the courtyard was also affected.

At this moment, Tang Wan, leaning on her sword, struggled to her feet, her steps unsteady, clearly having expended a great deal of energy.

She glanced at the barely alive Wu Shi on the ground and said in a hoarse voice, "The source of the evil god has been destroyed. But this body has been deeply eroded by evil power, its essence and blood have been depleted, and its life force has been cut off."

She paused, her gaze sweeping over Madam Luo, who had just recovered her senses: "Originally, worshipping an evil god was an unforgivable sin, making her an enemy of the Xuanmen people. However, considering the past friendship between our two families, I will spare her life. Your Luo family can deal with this karma yourselves."

Madam Luo glanced at her daughter-in-law, who was lying on the ground barely alive, and then at her son, who had turned away, unable to bear looking at her any longer. She slowly said, "In that case, thank you, Master! Let Wu Shi fend for herself in the Buddhist hall!"

Madam Luo also realized that today's situation seemed extremely dangerous, and that the second young lady of the Tang family was a woman of great ability.

The two families were already having some disagreements because of the Wu family, and today the person was brought over by Boss Wan.

Since I invited them and they're so capable, I really have to treat them with utmost respect.

Looking back now, I understand why the Tang family made her the head of the family.

Tang Wan was unaware of what Madam Luo was thinking, and even if she had, she wouldn't have cared.

She nodded slightly to Mrs. Luo, clearly agreeing with her approach.

Then Tang Wan continued to instruct: "The resentment of the evil spirits remaining in this place is extremely strong. It needs to be exposed to the scorching sun for seven days, and then thoroughly sprinkled with quicklime mixed with cinnabar, in order to eliminate any future troubles! During this period, no one is allowed to approach! Otherwise, they will be haunted by the resentment."

Madam Luo quickly agreed and respectfully said, "Yes, I will immediately instruct someone to prepare quicklime and cinnabar!"

Madam Luo hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Mr. Wan just gave us some talismans. Could you spare a few more for us so that the people cleaning the Buddhist hall can do their job peacefully and avoid being disturbed by resentment?"

"Okay." Tang Wan didn't say anything more.

Seeing this, Boss Wan took out a few talismans from his pocket and handed them over, saying, "Here are a few peace talismans, all drawn by the master himself."

Mr. Wan always carried this amulet with him, thinking he might be able to sell a few later.

Surprisingly, he actually managed to sell it.

Mrs. Luo carefully accepted the amulet handed to her by Mr. Wan and asked, "Mr. Wan, thank you both for your hard work today. What is this fee for your trouble?"

With a polite smile on his face, Boss Wan calmly said, "Our fortune-telling shop's fees for exorcising evil spirits and setting up feng shui formations are always determined by the client's wishes. However, this 'upgraded' peace talisman is clearly priced at fifty taels each."

Madam Luo looked down at the three amulets in her hand, which cost one hundred and fifty taels of silver.

If we add the money we just gave to the family of five, that's four hundred taels of silver.

This is just the money for the talismans; the reward for eliminating the evil god hasn't even been calculated yet!

Upon entering the hospital, she clearly saw that Miss Tang's condition indicated she had expended a great deal of energy to catch her breath. The cost... must be staggering.

She saw it clearly when she entered the hospital; the second young lady of the Tang family looked like she had expended a great deal of energy.

However, their family was severely weakened when they were exiled, and their resources were limited. If they gave away too much, their future livelihood would be in jeopardy.

Tang Wan noticed Madam Luo's predicament, guessing that they probably couldn't take much money with them when they were exiled.

Tang Wan then looked at Boss Wan and said slowly, "I know a little about the Luo family's situation, so I won't take my share of the compensation."

When Boss Wan heard what Tang Wan said, he said to Madam Luo, "Since the master has said so, let's give the talisman for a total of two hundred and forty taels! As for the other expenses, Madam, it's up to you." Madam Luo hesitated for a long time, but still said, "How about six hundred taels in total? Our family is really not well-off."

Boss Wan was decisive and answered without hesitation: "No problem, six hundred taels it is."

Madam Luo hurriedly took out a silver note from her sleeve and handed it to Boss Wan.

Tang Wan said no more. Seeing that Boss Wan had finished talking, she signaled that he could leave.

Without hesitation, Mr. Wan bid farewell to Mrs. Luo.

Tang Wan, her steps a little unsteady, left the Luo residence with Boss Wan.

Tang Wan forced herself to maintain her composure and walked out of the Luo residence.

As soon as he stepped out, he headed towards his own carriage.

Seeing Tang Wan's appearance, Boss Wan asked with concern, "Master... are you alright?"

Tang Wan shook her head, signaling Boss Wan to be quiet.

Seeing that Tang Wan looked weak after leaving the Luo family, Ding Li was worried. He immediately turned around to get a car seat, placed it down, and helped Tang Wan up.

Tang Wan reluctantly boarded the carriage.

"Let's go back to the manor." Tang Wan's voice was low and hoarse. "After you've seen me off... please take Boss Wan back as well."

Ding Li quickly responded.

In the car, Tang Wan forced herself to stay alert. She took out a cup of spiritual spring water from her spatial storage and quickly drank it.

As the spiritual spring water went down, it gradually soothed the burning pain in my meridians, and a warm, gentle sensation began to nourish my parched dantian.

Although it could not fully restore her to its original state, the spiritual spring water gave her almost depleted body a little bit of new life.

The carriage finally stopped in front of her house. Tang Wan took a deep breath and tried to adjust her condition so as not to appear too weak.

She lifted the car curtain and stepped out of the car steadily.

Although my steps were still lighter than usual, they were no longer weak and feeble.

She said to Ding Li, "Take Boss Wan home, and be careful on the way."

"Yes!" Ding Li agreed with relief after seeing that Tang Wan was in better condition.

Boss Wan could tell that although Tang Wan's condition had improved, she still needed to rest quickly, so he didn't dare to delay any longer and left with Ding Li.

Tang Wan walked through the familiar courtyard and finally returned to her room.

Only after closing the door did his forced composure completely dissipate.

Just as I was about to lie down on the bed to rest for a while, I suddenly heard Er Ya calling out, "Is Master home?"

Tang Wan felt a chill run down her spine.

Worried that something might have happened to the War King, she quickly asked, "Er Ya, I'm here. Is something the matter?"

Er Ya replied in a very fast voice: "Master, yesterday the War King asked me to find the whereabouts of the High Priest of the Southern Desert. I found the High Priest's hiding place in a heavily guarded place in the northwest corner of the inner city of Haiyue City!"

"He's not really dead after all. Is he hiding there healing his wounds or what?" Tang Wan hurriedly asked.

She was worried that the high priest was still alive, which is why she was in a hurry to find a way to protect the War King. Fortunately, the "Seven Star Life-Protecting Array" should be able to protect the War King's life without any problems.
