Yin Shou Shu

Chapter 103: Not a family, don’t enter the same family
The honest-looking man looked panicked.

The old woman quickly disowned herself: "I don't know what happened to her. She was fine just now, but suddenly she's crying out in pain."

"I must have eaten something outside during the day and it upset my stomach!"

"She only drank that bowl of talisman water for more than ten minutes, and she's already in so much pain... Even poison can't take effect this quickly!"

As she spoke, the old woman started cursing again.

The honest man hugged his wife, panicking and shouting anxiously, "What should we do now? I told you, don't believe in those feudal superstitions."

"That Hu Laowu, he has no skills at all, he's just a liar!"

"No, I need to take Chunlan to the hospital immediately."

The man hurriedly hugged his wife and was about to leave, but at this moment, the old man next to him suddenly discovered something and said with some horror.

"Xiao...Xiao Jincai! Take a quick look at Xiao Chunlan, is she dead?"

The bloody red blood suddenly flowed out from the corners of the woman's eyes, nose, and mouth.

The scene of blood gushing from all seven orifices was extremely creepy.

The man was also shocked when he saw the miserable state of his wife in his arms. He quickly reached out and touched his wife's nose.

Then, the man's face turned into one of extreme horror.

At this moment, a vulgar laugh suddenly came from outside the door.

"Haha... Third Aunt, I forgot to give you the vanishing cream you asked for."

Hu Laowu, who had been here once before, came back again.

He stood cheerfully at the door of the tile-roofed house and said, "Luckily I remembered halfway through. Now...eh? What's going on at your house?"

Hu Laowu was halfway through his words, looking surprised.

When the old woman saw Hu Laowu appear, she immediately rushed over and grabbed Hu Laowu.

Full of anger.

"Hu Laowu! What kind of talisman did you feed my daughter-in-law? How come she died after being fed the talisman water?"

"You have to pay for my daughter-in-law's life!"

The old woman grabbed Hu Laowu tightly, angry and terrified.

But Hu Laowu, who was caught, was stunned: "Xiao Chunlan is dead?"

The middle-aged man with a rat-like face suddenly pulled the old woman's hand away and rushed into the house with a serious face.

He squatted beside the woman's body, holding the lame woman's wrist with one hand, as if taking her pulse.

He then used his finger to probe the woman's nose to check her breath.

After a few seconds, Hu Laowu said seriously, "Oh no, Aunt San, your daughter-in-law is not a good person."

"People who drink this magical talisman I obtained will be blessed with good fortune and their illness will be cured immediately."

"If someone without good fortune drinks it, it will have no effect at best."

"Only demons and monsters will be in danger of death if they drink this talisman water."

"Your daughter-in-law is possessed by a ghost!"

As Hu Laowu spoke, he pressed the woman's temple hard, then took out a sachet from his pocket and shook it between the woman's noses for a long time.

The next second, the woman who had stopped breathing suddenly twitched.

She closed her eyes tightly and groaned. Although she was still unconscious, her breathing had resumed.

But a strange bluish-gray color appeared on the woman's face.

It looks like the evil ghost with green face and fangs in the temple murals.

This scene frightened everyone in the room.

The honest and simple-minded man was so frightened that he stepped back repeatedly, and his wife, who was originally in his arms, fell to the ground.

"Ghost... ghost..."

The honest and simple-looking man looked at his wife with horror, her face covered in bruises, his lips trembling. When Hu Laowu saw this scene, the corners of his mouth rose for a moment, then he coughed and his expression became serious.

"In short, the situation is very bad, and your daughter-in-law must be dealt with immediately."

"She drank the water made from the immortal talisman. The ghost in her body is going to die, and she will die with it soon."

"It must be because you scolded her every day that she harbored resentment, which led to the evil spirit possessing her and wanting to harm your entire family."

"I didn't expect to be killed by this magical talisman by accident..."

"But it's okay. It's better for her to die than for your whole family to die. If I had come back two days later, maybe your whole family would have been harmed by this ghost."

Hu Laowu said, looking at the elderly woman, "But if you say this to others, no one will believe it."

"Other people will only say that you, Third Aunt, are a poison queen who hated your daughter-in-law so you poisoned her to death."

"And murder is punishable by death!"

"When the police come, they'll arrest you and beat you up. I'm afraid your whole family will be in trouble."

Hu Laowu's words frightened the old woman silly.

She collapsed to the ground instantly, and said in fear: "What should I do?"

"I always said not to marry a lame man into the family, not to marry a lame man into the family."

"If a lame person enters the house, it will bring bad luck and unrest to the family!"

"Now it's come true... What should I do? What should I do?"

The old woman cried and screamed, collapsed on the ground, slapped the ground with her hands and kicked her legs.

At this time, the honest-looking man suddenly walked over and picked up his wife, whose face had turned pale, again.

He said in a panic: "I'll carry Xiao Chunlan to the hospital! Maybe the hospital can cure her!"

"Gastric lavage! Yes! Gastric lavage! Gastric lavage can wash out the talisman water in her stomach!"

The man seemed to have found a life-saving straw and was about to go out with his wife in his arms.

But at this moment, the shrewd-looking Hu Laowu grabbed him, stared at him sternly, and scolded him: "Are you crazy?"

"Your wife is dying! How long will it take to get to the hospital from here? Will we make it in time?"

"Besides, how many doctors are at work during Chinese New Year?"

"Your wife died before you even got to the hospital!"

"What will you say when people ask you about it? Will you tell them that your wife died from poisoning by your mother?"

"Who in this town doesn't know that your mother hates your wife?"

"If your mother wants you to be shot in the head, would you like that?"

Hu Laowu spoke in a ferocious tone and had a serious expression.

His unquestionable scolding tone made the man even more trembling and uneasy.

"Then...what should we do? If Chunlan dies, my mother will take her to the police station..."

The family of three in the room were in a panic, all terrified.

I completely forgot that the culprit was the talisman given by the man in front of me.

Seeing this situation, Hu Laowu coughed, looked outside vigilantly, and then lowered his voice.

"The best way is to carry Xiao Chunlan out now before anyone knows about this!"

"The magic talisman is just talisman water, it's not poisonous. It just killed the ghost in Xiao Chunlan and harmed her in the process."

"But the forensic autopsy couldn't detect any poison."

"Now, don't talk. Quickly and secretly carry Chunlan's body to the river and throw it in. Pretend she drowned."

"That way no one will come to trouble your family."
