The Ninth Lady is a rebellious person.

Chapter 116 Today's disaster comes from under the water
He took them to the West Lake Warm Room to check for any abnormalities. Lang Jiuchuan waited until the acupuncture time was up, removed the needle, and drew a calming charm on her forehead.

"You will need to soak in the bath for no more than a quarter of an hour before you can get up. After that, you can continue your confinement as usual. Don't worry, there is nothing wrong with you."

Ning felt warm all over and her complexion became much better. She asked, "Miss Jiu, what about my son?"

"He's fine, just take care of him." Lang Jiuchuan said, "When he's one month old, go find a temple and donate some incense oil, or donate some money or other things to a charity, that will be a way to thank the gods and accumulate blessings."

Ning wrote it down and said solemnly, "Thank you very much for this. We, mother and son, will remember it in our hearts."

"It's just something that comes handy." Lang Jiuchuan looked at Madam Ou and said, "Let's go check out the West Lake Warm Pavilion. If there's nothing else, I'll go back home first. When you've made up your mind, come find me in the mansion."

Mrs. Ou felt a pang of pain in her heart and said "OK" with a lack of interest.

Seeing that her mother-in-law had a strange look on her face, Ning tactfully did not ask any more questions. She just looked at Nanny Wei, who nodded imperceptibly.

Lang Jiuchuan walked out of the bedroom. The imperial physician hired by the eldest son of the Ou family was already waiting. When Ou Luozhong and the others saw her coming out, they asked anxiously, "How is it?"

"It's okay. Let's wait a little longer to feel her pulse. She needs a bath." Lang Jiuchuan said, "Besides, I need to go to the warm room in your house..."

She had only said half of her words when Jiang Che shouted from the Lingtai: "Come here quickly, there is a strange thing here."

Lang Jiuchuan walked out immediately, and seeing this, Ou Luozhong and the others hurriedly followed. Even Ning Dashun did not say that he wanted to visit his daughter. Anyway, she still had to take a bath, so it was not a good idea to go. Why not see what other miracles this little girl in front of them could do?
Seeing the imperial physician's face turn green, the eldest son of the Ou family quickly smiled and said, "Doctor Chen, would you please have some tea first and sit for a while? This is the green tea from a hundred-year-old tree before the rain, and it's only found in my brother and sister's yard."

Doctor Chen: “…”

It's not surprising. General Ning has only one daughter. When she got married, she wanted to empty the entire general's mansion as her dowry. What good things wouldn't she send over?
But what was that young lady doing just now? I heard them say before that she was using a needle. How could she do that?

The Ou family must be so anxious that they dare to brag about anything.

Well, this tea is really good. Wait a minute and drink more.

The Ou family's warm room is a water pavilion. The environment is similar to that of Kaiping Marquis Mansion, with a quiet and peaceful scenery. Perhaps because of the Ou family's scholarly style, the layout is also more elegant.

It was already dusk, and the winter crescent moon had appeared early, looming in the sky above the lake. A thin layer of ice had formed on the lake surface, and a large amount of fog was rising, making the scene as dreamy as a fairyland.

The waterside pavilion is built on the water's edge and is enclosed with glazed windows. In winter, the windows can be closed and connected to the floor heating, turning it into a warm pavilion. In summer, it can be opened to enjoy the cool breeze and cold water, making it a great place to enjoy the scenery.

Lang Jiuchuan looked around the area and his sight fell under the water pavilion. There was something there and Jiang Che was squatting there, looking a little excited.

"Come quickly, come quickly, I found something good. Even though it's a little disgusting, it's definitely a good thing. I guarantee it with my hundreds of years of practice." The general spun around excitedly. He felt that the underwater breath was a little familiar.

Lang Jiuchuan looked at the location and structure of the water pavilion and asked Ou Luozhong, "Did you specially ask a yin-yang master to look at the feng shui and build this water pavilion?"

"Ah?" Ou Luozhong said, "I don't know. This is a reward from the Heavenly Family. I just drew a picture and sent it to them, and they rewarded me with this house. I have lived here for more than ten years. What's wrong with this waterside pavilion?"

No wonder, it turned out to be a royal gift. It must have been lived in by some nobleman who specially checked the feng shui.

"There is nothing wrong with that. The pavilion is built by the water. The location and orientation correspond to the five elements, which means prosperity." Lang Jiuchuan said. Ou Luozhong breathed a sigh of relief and said, "But I heard from Madam that today's disaster started from this pavilion. I plan to tear it down and rebuild it."

"Today's disaster is not the water pavilion, but the things underneath it." Lang Jiuchuan shook his head.

What?
Several people looked at the water pavilion in unison. What was the secret?
Lang Jiuchuan came to the edge of the water pavilion and watched the evil spirit flowing on the thin ice surface.

It was a pillar of the waterside pavilion. She said to Ning Dashun, "Old General, you are very skilled. Can you help me dig out the things under this pillar?"

"What's the difficulty?" Ning Dashun rolled up his sleeves, kicked off his shoes, and was about to go into the water, but was stopped by Lang Jiuchuan again. She pulled out a piece of yellow paper from her sleeve, and took out some cinnabar liquid, dipped the talisman pen in it, drew a talisman to ward off evil spirits such as thunder and fire, blew it dry, folded it, and handed it over.

"That thing carries evil spirits. This talisman can ward off evil spirits and keep out the cold. If you carry it with you, you won't be eroded by the evil spirits. Thank you for your help."

Ning Dashun exclaimed: "That's my profit."

He was afraid of getting wet, so he stuffed the talisman into the deerskin hat on his head. It was warm, so he went into the water immediately. The pavilion was built close to the water. Although the footrests were in the water, it was close to the shore, so the water was just above his knees.

As Lang Jiuchuan said, he groped in the cold lake water, only to feel an extremely yin energy rushing towards him and then spreading away.

It’s cold, but it doesn’t seem as cold as I imagined.

Ning Dashun's hand suddenly touched something, he paused, then grabbed the thing and looked at it in the remaining light of the sky. It was a small tower?
"Is it this one?"

Lang Jiuchuan saw the familiar evil spirit coming from the blackened little tower. It was the remaining breath of the mother and son ghosts, so he said, "It is this."

Ning Dashun went ashore, holding up the small tower, and asked, "What is this? How could there be such a thing in the water?"

Ou Luozhong's face changed: "What is this tower used for? When did this thing appear in the waterside pavilion? It looks eerie."

"do not move!"

Before Lang Jiuchuan could warn him, he touched her casually and the evil spirit swept over him. He let out a howl, took a few steps back, and shivered all over.

So cold.

Lang Jiuchuan had no choice but to use a yellow talisman to suppress evil spirits on him first, then took the small pagoda. The vicious and resentful aura wrapped around her hand, but she pinched a spell and hit it, and the aura dissipated.

"It's the Seven-Star Vajra Pagoda. If I'm not mistaken, it should have been the most precious treasure of the Wanluo Ancient Temple five hundred years ago." The general surrounded it and said excitedly, "Don't look at it as it is stained by evil spirits now, but its true body is a magical instrument that can calm and nourish the soul. It is the protective magical instrument of Master Luo Le of the Wanluo Ancient Temple. This master is a great master who practices both Buddhism and Taoism. After his death, his true body turned into relics."

It looked at the Vajra Pagoda with envy and said, "This is a real treasure. It has gone through many changes and ended up in the hands of ordinary people. I wonder who got it and used it to tame evil spirits instead of doing good things. It has polluted the artifact. If Master Basil were still alive, he would be so angry that he would come down to earth and kill that person."

"How did you recognize it?"

"When I was still a little tiger cub, I saw Master Basil use it to suppress evil spirits." Jiang Che said, "Langjiu, if you can wipe out its evil spirit and consecrate it again, it will be our soul-nourishing treasure."

Lang Jiuchuan was overjoyed, thinking that all his efforts were not wasted, this item was destined to be his, so it was mine.
