Chapter 127 Girl, Spare Me!
Chapter 127 Girl, Spare Me!
Madam He's shop had close ties with the embroidery workshop in their village, and Madam Peng was brought into Zhao Family Village by Madam He.
"Yes, my cousin almost lost her life because she got engaged to Young Master Lang. She almost used her own essence to support Young Master Lang."
We still need to go to the Lang residence to demand an explanation. Since the embroidery has already been delivered, we won't stay any longer.
After saying that, Zhao Taohua led about ten people out together.
Although Zhao Taohua never mentioned her, Madam He still felt uneasy, since Jingya was the one she brought to Zhao Family Village.
Although she only had business dealings with Zhao Taohua in the area of embroidery, she had seen the five spirits that accompanied Zhao Taohua.
She believed in Zhao Taohua's ability to tame five different kinds of spirits.
She thought about how she hadn't seen Lang Yuan recently, and how Jing Ya had suddenly become so attentive, wanting to go to Zhao Family Village with her, and then immediately taking a liking to a village girl.
Connecting these dots, Mrs. He quickly found her answer.
As Zhao Taohua took her second step, she immediately spoke up:
"Miss Zhao, I'll go with you!"
She treated Jingya like a sister and brought her to Zhao Family Village without any suspicion. She never expected that Jingya would play tricks on her and cause such a mess!
Zhao Taohua stopped in her tracks, a fleeting smile playing on her lips, but beneath her lowered eyelashes, she couldn't hide the smugness in her eyes.
As she expected, the matter eventually turned into Madam He and the people from Zhao Family Village going to the Lang Mansion together!
Lang Mansion.
Since Lang Yuan fell into a coma, Madam Peng summoned Master Wei and asked him to find a way to wake Lang Yuan up, no matter what.
Master Wei held a whisk and cast a spell on Lang Yuan before finally finding the reason.
Let alone reviving him, Lang Yuan lay there like a dead man, his breath so weak that he seemed about to die at any moment.
After a long while, Master Wei finally found the reason and said:
"Madam Peng, the connection between Miss Zhao and Young Master Lang's vital essence has been severed, and the vital essence that Young Master Lang once obtained has also been taken back."
That's why Young Master Lang has become like this.
"How could this happen? Is there any way to take it back?" Madam Peng asked anxiously.
Master Wei, dumbfounded, explained, "Madam Peng, the connection between them has been severed, how could they possibly have taken it?"
Immediately, Madam Peng, who had been all smiles at him, turned fierce:
“Master Wei, I gave you a thousand taels to save my son, and you’re telling me you can’t save him?”
Do you think the Lang family's money is so easy to earn?
Madam Peng's brows were furrowed into a tight knot, her eyes wide open, her pupils seemingly holding two clusters of will-o'-the-wisps, as if she wanted to burn a hole through Master Wei.
As soon as she finished speaking, all the servants in the room stepped forward, implying that if he couldn't save the person today, he shouldn't even think about leaving.
Master Wei was shocked. He never expected that the Lang family would act in this way.
He explained to Madam Peng, "I have spent a lot of effort performing many rituals so that Young Master Lang can share in the essence of the body."
Furthermore, helping others steal their vital essence is an immoral act. If I were to aid and abet evil, do you think I would keep all the 1,000 taels for myself?
"Can I perform rituals to cleanse myself of my sins, and buy offerings and incense to worship the gods and spirits of heaven and earth? Wouldn't that cost money?"
Madam Peng said impatiently, "Stop talking nonsense. I'll give you ten thousand taels of silver, and I'll just ask you if you can save my son?"
"!!!"
When Master Wei saw the 10,000 taels of silver notes placed in front of him, he was so shocked that his pupils dilated and he swallowed hard.
"Can, can, can!"
Master Wei's voice trembled with excitement.
Heinous crimes and grave sins are things to say to the dead; for the living, having money is more important!
After putting all the silver notes into his pocket, Master Wei took the sachet that Zhao Xinghua had embroidered by hand from Lang Yuan and muttered incantations to it.
After a long while, Lang Yuan on the bed did not change in any way.
Master Wei, who was originally extremely confident, began to gradually doubt himself.
"How could this be? How could my spell fail?"
He couldn't believe it.
Madam Peng was furious: "You took ten thousand taels of silver from me, and this is what you call being able to save my son?"
She had barely finished speaking when a report came from outside:
"Madam, Madam He has arrived."
What's she doing here so late?
Madam Peng was somewhat surprised, but she ordered a servant to take the person to the front hall, saying she would come immediately.
The servant hesitated for a moment and said, "Madam, Madam He has already come in."
The next moment, Madam He and Zhao Taohua walked in, followed by a dozen or so villagers from Zhao Family Village, as well as the Five Spirits!
"!!! This, this... this is menstrual fluid? Durian fluid? Argumentative fluid? Snail fluid? And fungal fluid?"
Master Wei recognized the five spirits at a glance and accurately called out their names.
At a glance, none of them had a cultivation level of less than a hundred years.
Zhao Taohua's gaze fell on him, and a slight smile appeared on her lips:
"This Taoist priest has a keen eye. It must be you who helped Young Master Lang and my cousin share their vital essence, right?"
Although Zhao Taohua's voice was calm, Master Wei trembled slightly upon hearing it.
His gaze shifted back and forth between her and Shen Ming. The girl exuded a rich spiritual aura and radiated golden light of merit.
She must be a kindred spirit, either because she has done many good deeds in this life, or because it was brought from a previous life.
The other white-haired youth, however, exuded an overwhelming ferocity. Such a person must have committed many evil deeds in his past life or in his previous one.
But the two of them were standing together, a combination that frightened Master Wei.
It seems that they severed the connection between Miss Zhao and Young Master Lang's vital essence, which is why he couldn't reconnect no matter what he did.
Although the other party is young, their cultivation level is above his own!
Master Wei quickly analyzed the situation and pleaded with Zhao Taohua:
"Girl, spare me! I was forced into this. You can see how many servants are here. If I don't obey, they won't let me leave!"
"is it?"
Zhao Taohua countered with a question.
With just a glance from her, Shen Ming immediately stepped forward and lifted her up with one hand. After only a couple of shakes, many silver notes fell out, all of them worth a hundred taels.
"It is your evil ways that cause innocent ordinary people to lose their lives."
"You've committed countless evil deeds, aren't you afraid of going to the eighteen levels of hell after you die?"
Zhao Taohua said coldly, her eyes filled with disgust and contempt for Master Wei.
She walked slowly toward him, each step bringing fear to Master Wei.
He asked in terror, "What are you going to do?"
He knew that Zhao Taohua possessed spiritual energy and must be a fellow practitioner. Looking at the five spirit monsters, he knew that Zhao Taohua's cultivation level must be very high.
Zhao Taohua didn't waste any words with him, but in the next instant, he heard Zhao Taohua chanting a spell.
This is a spell that can abolish someone else's cultivation.
