With Liu Dong's talisman protecting them, the rice dumplings were temporarily unable to enter the group.

But there were too many villagers, and no one could escape the encirclement of the rice dumplings.

At that moment, a swarm of bats suddenly flew into the village and attacked the rice dumplings.

Qin Yi, along with the Qin family's employees, driver, and secretary, were dumbfounded.

What's going on with these bats?
They actually attacked rice dumplings?

They completely ignored these living people?!

Could it be that these bats specialize in eating human flesh?

Liu Di smiled with relief when she saw the group of bats.

His beloved came to save him!
A bat flew and landed on Liu Di's shoulder.

Liu Di reached out and touched the bat's head, a gentle smile on her lips.

Qin Yi shuddered when he saw it. Why did Liu Di look at the bats so strangely?

Qin Yi: "Do you keep these bats?"

Liu Di: "No, I just think this bat is cute. Don't you think so?"

I don't think so at all.

Qin Yi: "These bats are very strange."

Liu Di: "Even if it's strange, it's still the one who saved us, so it's like our savior."

Qin Yi: "Uh, you're right."

As the yin energy in the village was absorbed by the formation, the zongzi no longer had the power to support their movements.

The rice dumplings stopped moving and fell to the ground one by one.

Seeing that the crisis had temporarily passed, the lead bat opened its mouth wide.

Humans cannot hear its voice, but the bats all hear the command.

They all flew into the air and flew away into the distance, leaving only the one on Liu Di's shoulder.

Qin Yi glanced at the bat again and sensed that Liu Di's relationship with the bat was not simple.

Perhaps these bats were raised by Liu Di.

With such a group of bats around, even if he and Liu Tong hadn't come to the ghost village, Liu Di would have been able to escape, right?

Qin Yi stepped forward and kicked the completely stiff rice dumpling, saying, "Liu Dong should have succeeded. Let's go find him."

Liu Di was very concerned about her younger brother's safety, and immediately agreed and followed Qin Yi.

The poor Qin family's servants were slow-moving and could only slowly make their way to the center of the village.

Liu Dong has already finished work.

Erniu is a vengeful ghost, but he can only obediently lie down in the face of Maoshan Taoist magic.

Liu Dong dispersed Er Niu's malevolent aura, collected Er Niu's soul, and allowed him to stay with his wife and daughter.

Qin Yi and Liu Di walked over and saw that Liu Tong was holding five small balls of light in her hand.

Qin Yi: "What is this?"

Liu Di: "One of your buddies' souls."

Once the men had moved over, Liu Dong inserted the orbs of light into their bodies one by one.

After a while, the five men moved their hands and feet and regained their agility.

The five men immediately knelt down to thank Liu Dong.

If it weren't for Liu Dong, they would have been dead.

Liu Tong told them to get up and then reassigned tasks to them.

This time, it was still about setting up an array, but it was an array for the deceased.

Because she disliked the villagers, Liu Dong did not set up a sophisticated formation.

All he needed to do was send the villagers' souls into the underworld; he didn't care whether their souls would suffer from the pulling of the formation.

The formation was quickly set up, and Liu Dong activated it, beginning to chant scriptures for the deceased.

The crowd stood aside and saw souls emerge from the bodies of the rice dumplings, only to be quickly sucked into the ground.

As the souls disappeared, all the rice dumplings vanished into ashes.

Everyone breathed a long sigh of relief. After the villagers' souls had all been sent to the afterlife, Liu Dong took out the wooden plaque.

They began to perform a ritual to help Erniu's family pass on to the afterlife.

This time it was much gentler.

Erniu's family even had time to thank Liu Dong before they disappeared from everyone's sight, hand in hand.

After the big boss left, the buildings in the entire village began to crumble and decay.

The group now stood in the desolate wilderness.

A cold wind blew, and Liu Di's secretary couldn't help but sneeze.

Fortunately, Qin Yi and his group were well-prepared and brought a lot of equipment for outdoor accommodation.

Soon, the Qin family set up several tents, giving one to the driver, secretary, and two others.

Liu Di didn't stay in the tent; instead, she took the bat on her shoulder and went to rest in the car.

Liu Tong knew he wanted to talk to Catherine.

Liu Tong's ears twitched, and she snapped out of her reverie, having no interest in listening to the couple's intimate conversation.

He was unaware that the focus of their conversation was him.

Bat Catherine: "Darling, your brother is amazing!"

Liu Di: "This is the first time I've realized how amazing he is. I always thought that the things passed down in my family were all lies, and that my grandfather, father, and Ah Qiu were all charlatans."

Catherine: "Your brother's abilities are comparable to those of an archbishop of the Holy See, and you still think he's a charlatan. My dear, I must say, you know far too little about your own family."

Liu Di felt guilty; he really knew too little about his family.

Catherine: "I'll have to be more careful from now on, lest your brother discover my identity. With his power, he could easily harm me."

"Don't worry," Liu Di quickly reassured Catherine. "Ah Qiu won't hurt you. Besides, he already knows your identity."

"What?" Catherine exclaimed in surprise.

Liu Di continued to reassure him: "It's alright. Ah Qiu said that as long as you don't kill anyone, he won't lay a hand on you and will accept you as his sister-in-law."

Catherine asked incredulously, "How did he know? Did you tell him?"

Liu Di: "No, he discovered your identity on the very first day we returned. He said he knew a foreign priest and thus knew about the Western paranormal world."

Catherine remained silent for a long time.

"Thank goodness he's your brother!"

Catherine really didn't want to make enemies with such a powerful person.

Liu Di embraced Catherine, who had transformed into human form, in his arms.

"Although I don't have A-Lian's abilities, I will do my best to protect you. If anyone tries to hurt you, I will take them down with me."

Catherine was deeply moved and hugged Liu tightly.

The next day, Liu Heng and his party returned to the city.

The news about the ghost village was spread by the driver, secretary, and Qin family's employees.

Liu Dong's reputation in the underworld grew louder and louder.

More people came to the Liu family to buy the talismans drawn by Liu Dong.

In the end, Liu Dong had no choice but to implement purchase limits.

Qin Yi is not on the list of those subject to purchase restrictions. The Qin family is a major customer and should be given some preferential treatment.

That day, Qin Yi invited Liu Dong again.

It wasn't a request for Liu Dong's help, but rather an invitation for him to go sightseeing together.

"play?"

Qin Yi: "Yes, my maternal grandfather is celebrating his 70th birthday, and he has invited Mr. Feng Laiyi, a famous opera singer from Beiping, to perform."

Feng Laiyi is a nationally renowned Peking Opera star.

His portrayal of Yu Ji amazed many people.

It is said that before the previous dynasty fell, people in the Forbidden City invited him to perform.

Later, a warlord in Northeast China offered him a large sum of money to go to the Northeast, but Feng Laiyi refused.

Many people were quite surprised that Qin Yi's maternal grandfather was able to invite Feng Laiyi this time. (End of Chapter)
