Chapter 169 . Solo Mission
Motherf*cker! Ambushing me while Little Ye is not around, yeah? Well, I’m not afraid! I’m also a Daoist! I should be fine since Ye Shaoyang said there would only be weak spirits or demons .
Xiao Ma was trying to think of things to comfort himself . He took a deep breath and finally turned around . There was nothing behind him . Then, a strange noise came from the cabin .
Was it a spirit or a demon? What does it look like?
Thoughts raced through his mind, but he still went to the cabin and flipped over a straw mat .
A triangular-faced thing looked at Xiao Ma . Its mouth was wide open as if smiling at him . It had a body like a toad with long legs, and it was squatting on the floor .
Before Xiao Ma could clearly see all of its features, the creature launched itself up and tackled Xiao Ma . It put its hands around Xiao Ma’s neck and began to strangle him .
Fortunately, a ray of purple light shot out from his pocket . The light hit the creature, and it was pushed away . Xiao Ma got up but tripped over something and fell onto the creature . The weight of Xiao Ma was so unbearable that the creature yelled in pain . It wanted to run away, but every time it moved, the purple ray of light shot it .
Xiao Ma touched his pocket and felt the coin Ye Shaoyang gave him . He then remembered its protective qualities .
When Xiao Ma looked at the creature's face, he was not terrified anymore .
He laughed and said, “Scared of a little coin? You little sh*t, see how I’ll deal with you . ”
With one hand holding it down, Xiao Ma reached into his back pocket and took out a bunch of yellow talisman papers . Recently, Xiao Ma had been training on how to draw talisman papers . He had always wanted to give them a try and now was the perfect chance .
“Come, brother! Today’s your lucky day!” Xiao Ma put the bunch of talisman paper beside the creature and picked one to stick onto its head . Then, he closed his eyes . He chanted to activate it, but nothing happened . Never mind, he thought and tore it off . He stuck another one on and tried again . He repeated this seven times, but nothing worked .
The creature was afraid of being shot by the purple light again, so it didn’t dare move . It stared, puzzled at Xiao Ma as he tried his talisman papers . If that creature had known it would be used as a lab rat, it probably would have bit its tongue and ended its life .
“I can’t believe none of them work!” Xiao Ma angrily took the rest of the talisman papers and stuck them all on the head of the creature . He chanted and then a ‘bang’ sounded . He opened his eyes and saw that three or four of the talisman papers had burst into flames .
Finally after so much hard work and f*cking drawing!
The areas that were burned by the fire immediately retracted . Black blood flowed out . Soon after, the whole creature was on fire and it was completely burned away .
“Not bad for the first time?” Xiao Ma looked at the puddle of black blood and scratched his head .
Meanwhile, inside the lair of the girl spirit, Ye Shaoyang threw out a handful of coins . They flew and hit a bunch of spirits that immediately became primordial spirits .
“I’m a Maoshan Heavenly Master . Show yourselves now!”
Immediately, a few spirits came before him and begged him for mercy .
“Please, great sorcerer, we’re just villagers who have been killed by the spirit . We were turned into slaves, but we never killed anyone . Please transcend us, mister . ”
Ye Shaoyang asked, “Where is the female spirit?”
“She’s inside . She’s very powerful and has killed a few sorcerers, so please be careful!”
Ye Shaoyang didn’t say anything more, he drew out some talisman papers and threw them into the air .
“Go now . ”
The spirits thanked him and swiftly fused with the talisman papers as they flew out of the lair .
Ye Shaoyang walked to the end of a hallway and reached a door that seemed ancient . Above the door hung a pearl curtain, which was also ancient . Ye Shaoyang frowned as he pushed aside the curtain and walked into the room .
Inside was a dressing table, a closet, and an ancient Chinese bed . All of the items were made of wood . Ye Shaoyang immediately knew that it was the room of a woman from ancient China .
There was another door on the other side with a pearl curtain . Ye Shaoyang did not go through it .
Instead, he dared to sit on the bed and said, “Come out! Let’s have a little talk . ”
Soon, the curtain moved and a woman walked through it . She wore ancient Chinese clothing and a jade hairpin . Her hand held a handkerchief, which was usual for ancient people . She slowly walked toward Ye Shaoyang . Ye Shaoyang looked up . The woman was in her early twenties, and she was beautiful .
When she walked in, the room was immediately filled with Spirit Qi . Ye Shaoyang’s heart sank . As he figured, this was no simple spirit!
The woman used her handkerchief to cover her mouth, then giggled and said to Ye Shaoyang, “Master Sorcerer, how dare you enter into a woman’s private room? Not only that, you’re sitting on her bed . How is this appropriate?”
Ye Shaoyang looked at her and said, “Heji? The river spirits from the underworld’s west rivers?”
The girl smiled and said, “You know your stuff, Master Sorcerer . Please call me Hua Mei . ”
Ye Shaoyang let out a humph and said, “I never understand why all female spirits want to turn young and beautiful . Aren’t you like a few hundred years old in human years? Why is an old granny like you here in the human realm?”
The female spirit was immediately irritated, “I only turned into what I was in my past life . ”
Ye Shaoyang let out another humph and said, “You’re a spirit from the underworld . How do you have a past life?”
“I was in the mortal realm two hundred years ago . Back then, I was called Hua Mei . ”
From this, Ye Shaoyang understood why the room had an ancient decorum, and why she was in ancient Chinese clothing . They were all things that she had liked in her ‘past life’ .
“I don’t care about your past,” Ye Shaoyang said, “Who summoned you into the mortal realm this time?”
Hua Mei squinted, smiled and said, “I won’t tell you anything, Master Sorcerer, but I can tell you this: you’re no match for him let alone the demon that is under him . ”
“Madam Chee?”
Hua Mei giggled and said, “Scared, Master Sorcerer?”
Ye Shaoyang said calmly, “Scared or not, it’s got nothing to do with you; you won’t be able to see it anyway . ”
Hua Mei’s expression swiftly got nervous . She let out a sigh and went to her dressing table . She pulled open one of the drawers and a golden glow came out of it .
Ye Shaoyang looked into it and saw that the drawer was filled with treasure .
“This was all found around the river . Are they enough to buy a life?”
Hua Mei then continued, “If you don’t like treasure, I have another thing you might like . ”
Ye Shaoyang gulped the saliva in his mouth and thought, Is she going to use her body to…
That was not the case . Hua Mei opened another drawer and took out a wooden plank that was the shape and size of a smartphone . Engraved on the wood was a golden--
Leaf?
“A Heavenly Master Tablet!” Ye Shaoyang exclaimed in awe .
Hua Mei smiled and said, “You know your stuff, Master Sorcerer . ”
