I became an immortal in the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 173 Evil Spirit, Beautiful Face
Yuan Danqiu also stared intently.

He could feel the wind and snow blowing in from outside, smell the alcohol in his nose and mouth, and hear Pei Ze's shouts and panic below. He also saw Pei Ze knock Tai Bai over.

Yuan Danqiu had studied Taoist scriptures for many years.

Regarding the current situation... he could only recall Zhuangzi's "Free and Easy Wandering," which evoked a sense of wandering the world and forgetting worldly concerns.

Riding the wind and plucking the moon, across mountains and rivers for thousands of miles, there are many places to go.

Jiang She waited until the excitement on their faces subsided.

He had just opened his mouth:
"No name, just some clever tricks."

Li Bai was surprised.

They drifted out of the main hall, away from their own bodies, away from Pei Ze who was sitting nervously among three dead men, and away from the several noble young men who were watching the snow under the eaves with their servants.

Walking through the falling snow.

Snowflakes fall from them, bringing both the chill and the fragrance of plum blossoms. Yet, they cannot hold back the falling petals or stop the snow from falling.

After a while, Li Bai remembered something.

"Are you looking for Wang Sanlang, sir?"

"Yes."

Jiang She walked in the snow.

The snow falling from the sky did not wet his clothes, nor did it linger on his blue robe. There were many servants in the courtyard, but none of them could be seen.

Jiang She caught sight of two maids talking under a plum tree. He paused, flicked his fingers slightly, and continued on his way.

"Wake up, wake up!"

A servant woman in brown pushed another one, saying, "My lord, you are hosting a banquet today. Do not let our distinguished guests see this."

The person had snow falling on their head.

I opened my eyes groggily, and for some reason, even after dozing off outside for a short while, I didn't feel cold.

"I just closed my eyes for a moment..."

The brown-clad maid nudged her again, saying, "Get up quickly. You're lucky to be taking a nap outside in this cold weather. Some unlucky people would have frozen to death long ago."

"I'll go cut a few branches of white plum blossoms and bring them inside. You need to wake up first."

The man paused for a moment before nodding.

He thanked them again.

"Why so sour?"

The brown-clad maid's face was a little red from the cold, and she was busy with her master's work, so she didn't have time to linger and left in a hurry.

After a while, the woman stood up from under the tree. She patted the snow off her body, stomped her feet to shake herself off, and continued sweeping the snow with her broom, her face still somewhat dazed, recalling the dream she had just had.

It seemed like there were several people walking in the snow, talking about the master of the house getting married.

The man rubbed his head.

She looked towards the place where the group had walked in her dream.

But where are the footprints on the ski slope?
He's really obsessed.

……

……

Jiang She had already gone far away.

Li Bai and Yuan Danqiu followed beside them. For some reason, as they drifted through the world, they seemed to have exceptionally sharp hearing and eyesight, and could hear arguments and quarrels from afar.

Madam Chen sat in a chair, clutching a handkerchief in her hand, her eyes slightly red.

"I only found out today that you told Pei Shiyi and the others that you wanted a divorce from me. What do you take me for? Someone who tramples on my dignity and lets others humiliate me? You just have to marry her?"

Wang Sheng's face was pale as his servants applied medicine to him.

His expression was unpleasant.

He pointed to the bruise on his forehead.

This was what the lady had just knocked out with the vase. Wang Sheng said angrily, "Pei Shi and Zhang Wu are still waiting for me at the banquet. How am I supposed to face them now?"

The servants outside dared not breathe, and no one dared to speak. The servant who was applying the medicine also went out, leaving only the couple inside.

Wang Sheng gathered his strength, raised his hand, and smashed the other vase on the ground.

"Crack-!"

Broken porcelain scattered all over the ground.

Wang Sheng coldly replied:

"The friendship between us yesterday is like this bottle."

Her husband smashed the vase, and shards of porcelain splattered out, tearing her robe.

Madam Chen did not avoid it.

This was her dowry from home. Land, estates, houses, shops, servants, gold, silver, money, daily utensils, jewelry, and silk—like all daughters of officials, the Chen family had prepared everything she needed for a lifetime. Those vases were just one of many vases and cups in her dowry.

She stared blankly at the broken porcelain on the ground, tears streaming down her face.

Wang Sheng ignored him and turned to leave.

He left behind a sentence.

"I've said everything I could to you. Think about it yourself."

After a while, the personal maid dared to come in.

Ask carefully.

"lady?"

Mrs. Chen sat quietly for a while, then looked at her. "Where did he go?"

The maid whispered, "I just saw that they were heading towards the study..."

Madam Chen gave a cold laugh.

"He won't let the servants in, and he won't let me ask. Does he think I'm stupid? Who's hiding in the study?"

……

Jiang She was standing outside the study.

Having overheard half of the argument, Jiang She politely stopped eavesdropping on their domestic affairs, turned and left, arriving at the study with Li Bai and Yuan Danqiu.

The door was tightly shut, and servants guarded the outside.

Li Bai felt that Wang Sheng's forehead looked a little darker than before.

The deathly aura is probably even stronger now.

"Is that woman here?"

Yuan Danqiu asked curiously, "Why is Wang Sheng hiding her here? And why is he keeping such a close watch on her?"

As they were talking, the two of them frowned.

Now my hearing is exceptionally good, and I can hear many different sounds.

It was extremely painful, like the sound of teeth biting together, and the soft sound of ink being dipped into paper and a brush tracing lines on paper.

The servants outside remained motionless, as if they hadn't heard anything.

Jiang Shedao.

"It's obvious at a glance."

The study door was locked, but that didn't stop him. Li Bai and Yuan Danqiu followed Jiang She and floated inside.

"this……!"

Yuan Danqiu was horrified, so frightened that he was speechless.

Li Bai followed behind him, and before he could even raise his eyes, he laughed and said, "Why is Danqiu Zi behaving like this...!"

He couldn't speak either.

The two were terrified.

Before them stood a hideous, blue-faced demon with jagged, saw-like teeth, holding a brush and drawing on something as thin as a cicada's wing.

Li Bai was horrified as he watched the green-faced demon paint, his heart pounding.

After a long time.

Only then did he dare to look closely.

Upon seeing that thing as thin as a cicada's wing, which vaguely resembled a human figure, the evil spirit had a beautiful face painted on its head.

Yuan Danqiu remained silent for a long while.

"This is human skin..."

Li Bai guessed.

"Could it be that this evil spirit ate the woman Wang Sheng was hiding?"

Yuan Danqiu: "Maybe so."

They were filled with fear, and their voices were very low. The hideous green-faced demon was right in front of them, painting with human skin. It was a horrifying sight that made them uneasy.

Li Bai's heart pounded, and he was about to ask the master a question.

Suddenly, a series of servants bowed and greeted him outside the study.

"My lord has arrived..."

"I hope you are well, Ah Lang."

Wang Sheng waved his hand, signaling them to leave.

He lightly rubbed the bruise on his forehead, not daring to actually touch it. His face had been extremely grim the whole way, but when he arrived at the study door, his expression suddenly softened considerably.

Wang Sheng pushed open the door, only to find that the study door was locked.

"Li Niang, are you inside?"

In the room.

Li Yuan and his companion were horrified to see the blue-faced demon open its mouth, revealing its menacing teeth.

The voice that came out was a light and gentle woman's voice, still somewhat sleepy.

"I took a short nap, and you've arrived?"

Wang Sheng nodded from outside the door.

"Yes, I came to find you..."

The emerald-green demon smiled slightly: "Let me change my clothes."

As it spoke, it hummed a tune and gradually picked up the skin of the person painting.

It's like a person wearing clothes, with their skin glued to their body.

Its shape gradually changed.

In the blink of an eye, a beautiful young woman with a silver hairpin in her hair and a cool, aloof expression slowly gathered the writing brushes and ink on the couch and placed them on the table.

opened the door.

He pulled Wang Sheng inside and asked with concern, "Have you been waiting long?"
