Traveling through various miniature worlds with a small restaurant

Chapter 142 The World of Ghosts and Monsters 9

Liu Sheng was shocked by Yun Gu's words. Just as he was about to ask something, Yun Gu suddenly stood up from the ground, almost bumping her head on him.

Yun Gu stared wide-eyed at Liu Sheng, trying to convince him, repeatedly saying, "There are evil spirits on this street, and someone is raising them! No, no, no, it's the underworld, it's the underworld!"

Liu Sheng's heart tightened at Yun Gu's reaction, and he quickly helped her up, trying to calm her down.

"Senior sister, don't panic, tell me slowly. What exactly happened?"

Suddenly, Yun Gu looked behind Liu Sheng, pointed, and shouted, "It's you!"

He then clutched his head, his face contorted in pain, and squatted down before fainting.

Liu Sheng hurriedly looked in the direction Yun Gu pointed, but only saw an empty street with no one around.

He looked at the suffering Yun Gu with a mixture of doubt and worry.

Xiao Tong skipped out carrying the packaged roast duck. Seeing the two people at the door, she immediately asked, "Master, what happened?"

Before Liu Sheng could speak, Hong Jie's voice came from the side: "Oh dear, what's wrong with Aunt Yun?"

Liu Sheng picked up Yun Gu in his arms and glanced at Hong Jie.

Sister Hong looked worried, but still asked curiously, "What are your relationships with Aunt Yun?"

Liu Sheng noticed that she was the owner of the shop next door, and that he had bought roast duck from the roast duck shop at noon, so they had met once before. He also wanted to know what had happened to his senior sister in the past three years.

So he politely said, "I am her family."

Sister Hong nodded, then frowned and said, "Why are you so late?"

Liu Sheng looked at Hong Jie in confusion. Hong Jie waved her hand and pointed to Yun Gu's shop, saying, "Let's take Yun Gu inside first and let her lie down and rest."

Liu Sheng nodded, and Xiao Tong, being perceptive, opened the door so that her master could carry her aunt inside.

The shop was filled with various statues of gods, but they were all covered in a layer of dust, indicating that the owner had not cleaned them for a long time.

Further inside, there is a room simply furnished with a bed, a set of table and chairs, and a black wardrobe.

The window in the room was tightly closed, the light was dim, and there was an indescribable strange smell.

Sister Hong frowned slightly, covered the tip of her nose with her handkerchief, and seeing that Liu Sheng had put Yun Gu down, she said to him, "Let Yun Gu rest well, let's go outside to talk."

Liu Sheng nodded and followed Hong Jie to the hall where the statue of the god was kept.

“Aunt Yun’s mental state started to deteriorate three years ago, and I even advised her to see a doctor back then. But I don’t know why she didn’t go, and her mental state got worse and worse afterward. She would occasionally run out and say things that I couldn’t understand. But this time, I don’t know what happened, Aunt Yun suddenly fainted.”

Liu Sheng felt a little guilty, wishing he had come to see his senior sister sooner.

Sister Hong comforted him for a few words and then left.

Xiao Tong walked over angrily and said to Liu Sheng, "Master, this is outrageous! I just called for a car, but neither an ambulance nor a ride-hailing service wanted to come to Mingyi Lane. I'm going to file a complaint against them!"

She even said that Mingyi Lane's name was more like a funeral home than a ride-hailing service. It infuriated her.

Liu Sheng sighed. With his senior sister in this condition, he and his disciple couldn't leave for the time being. They had to wait until Yun Gu recovered before making any plans.

I'll call the Celestial Masters' Association later and explain the situation here.

Seeing Xiaotong standing to the side, puffing up her cheeks and clutching her phone tightly, Liu Sheng shook his head helplessly.

“Mingyi Alley is eerie, so it’s normal that those people don’t dare to come here. I’ll carry your aunt out of this street later, and then we’ll take a taxi to the hospital.”

After Liu Sheng called the Celestial Master's Office to explain the situation, he hung up and put the phone away.

Back in Yun Gu's bedroom, they picked her up, with Xiao Tong following behind.

As soon as she stepped out of the shop, Yun Gu's body suddenly began to convulse.

Liu Sheng was startled and quickly hugged Yun Gu tightly.

Xiao Tong turned pale with fright. "Master, what should we do? What happened to Aunt?"

Liu Sheng tried his best to calm himself down and observed Yun Gu's condition.

Yun Gu's eyes were tightly closed, her face was pale, and her body was convulsing as if she was enduring great pain.

Liu Sheng made a quick decision, turned around and carried her back to the shop. As a result, Yun Gu's body miraculously returned to normal.

Yagyu and Kotomi exchanged a glance, their hearts filled with doubt.

Liu Sheng gently put Yun Gu down and carefully examined her body again, but still found nothing unusual.

"Master, what exactly is going on?" Xiao Tong asked softly.

Liu Sheng frowned and pondered for a moment before slowly saying, "Your aunt may have been bewitched."

Xiao Tong's eyes widened in shock: "Poisoned? Master, what should we do now?"

Liu Sheng's expression was grave: "We need to find the person who cast the curse."

But where can I find it?

Xiao Tong frowned and said worriedly, "But Master, where are we going to find the person who cast the Gu poison?"

Liu Sheng remained silent for a long time before sighing, "The person who casts the Gu poison is ruthless, and there aren't many people skilled in casting such Gu poison. I'll ask an old friend who is skilled in Gu poison to see if there are any other methods."

Leaving aside the anxiety of the master and disciple, on Lin Xiaoqian's side, Mo Ying was already eager to find the evil spirit, after all, who wouldn't want to recover their full strength as soon as possible?

Mo Ying glanced at the map on his phone and suddenly said with some surprise, "The places where these ghosts are located seem to form a formation when connected together."

The more Mo Ying looked, the deeper her brows furrowed, and the others curiously gathered around.

Mo Ying stared at it for a while, then suddenly understood. He clicked his tongue and said, "Adding the place we're in now, it all makes sense. What a vicious formation."

He zoomed out on the map and pointed to the places where evil spirits were: "Look, wherever there are evil spirits in these places, they must be barren mountains and treacherous waters. The energy of the surrounding mountain ranges will be cut off, and the dragon veins will be on their last legs! And the hexagram formed by connecting these places where evil spirits are located points directly to the Kunlun Mountains, which is about to sever the largest dragon vein."

Lin Xiaoqian frowned and pondered for a moment before asking, "Such a formation couldn't have formed naturally, could it?"

Mo Ying gave her an approving look: "That's natural. No matter how ruthless Heaven is, it will not sever all life. Once all the dragon veins are destroyed, the entire country will be barren, filled with evil spirits, and become a living hell."

Lin Xiaoqian and the others broke out in a cold sweat upon hearing this.

"However, fortunately, I am here now, and I will definitely eliminate these evil spirits." Mo Ying seemed to be excitedly licking his lips, thinking that his lost power was about to return.

This place is very similar to the Flower Kingdom. Lin Xiaoqian and the others naturally don't want the country to suffer such a thing. If Mo Ying can handle it, that would be even better.

Mo Ying couldn't wait to step outside: "The matter of selling roast duck is up to you. I have the most important thing to do now."

Lin Xiaoqian called out from behind, "Be mindful of the time!"

Don't think the person has returned by now.

Mo Ying raised his hand and left with a flourish.
