Metaphysics Reborn: My rules are rules

It was close to eleven o'clock when Ye Yuran arrived at Shen's house.Because a ritual was to be performed at twelve o'clock, the Shen family villa was still brightly lit.

All the servants have been sent out by Shen Shanjun, leaving only Shen Shanjun, Yao Ling, and Sun Zhifeng and Yu Wen who want to do some cooking.

Zhao Qian didn't stay long after sending Ye Yuran to him. He said hello to Shen Shanjun and returned to the Zhao family. After all, he was the mayor and still had many government affairs to deal with, so he didn't have much time to spend in the Shen family.

Children are afraid of light, so after 11:30, the Shen family turns off all the lights, and everyone only holds a very dim small lamp in their hand.

Sun Zhifeng and Yu Wen had already set up the formation in the baby's room before Ye Yuran arrived. They only had to wait until twelve o'clock to catch the little kid.

"tick tock"

The living room was very quiet, and the ancient clock in the hall made an unusually clear sound.

Yao Ling leaned in Shen Shanjun's arms and sat on the sofa, holding the lamp in her hand tightly with her fingers.

Shen Shanjun saw his wife's nervousness, hugged her tighter, and whispered comfort.

"Click - click -"

The clock passed twelve o'clock.

"Wow--"

The clear cry of a baby could be heard from the second floor. The sound was young and shrill, especially penetrating in the dead of night.

"It's time." Sun Zhifeng got up from the sofa, and Yu Wen followed him to the second floor.

Ye Yuran touched the Yin Bracelet on his wrist, recited the incantation, and followed him upstairs.

Shen Shanjun and Yao Ling were ordinary people after all, and they didn't dare to observe closely, so they fell slowly at the back.

"dong dong dong"

Even though the Shen family's floor was covered with thick carpets, the sound of everyone's footsteps was still very clear.

"Wow ah ah-"

The closer he got to the baby's room, the louder the screams became, even a little harsh.

Yao Ling covered her mouth, turned her face to Shen Shanjun's arms and cried silently.

Everyone walked quietly to the door of the baby's room, and Sun Zhifeng motioned for everyone to put out the lights in their hands.

In an instant, it was pitch black.

Sun Zhifeng slowly pushed the door open. The door was wide open, and the baby's cry became clearer, as if it was coming to his ears.

Ye Yuran signaled Shen Shanjun and his wife to stay at the stairs and not to follow them.

Shen Shanjun nodded, took his wife's hand and stayed at the top of the stairs.

It was also pitch dark in the nursery, and I couldn't see anything clearly.

Sun Zhifeng entered slowly with a wooden sword in hand, and Yu Wen followed suit.

Ye Yuran did not enter the house, but stood at the door and looked inside.

Because of the existence of the Yin Bracelet, she was able to see the scene inside.

The gray translucent ghost stood at the head of the crib, waving and making faces at the baby on the bed, and even reached out to touch the baby on the bed.

The baby's face was blue and purple. I don't know whether it was because he cried too hard or was frightened.

Ye Yuran frowned and watched this scene.

After entering, Sun Zhifeng lit the candle on the table at the end of the bed.

The dim candlelight illuminated a corner, but it was too dim to illuminate the bed.

Yu Wen took out several talismans from his chest. Sun Zhifeng took them and murmured a few incantations. In an instant, fire shot into the sky and the talismans spontaneously ignited.

Sun Zhifeng danced a few more times with his sword.

Ye Yuran could see clearly that she had learned a lot from following Gu Jinyu these days, and she even knew a little bit about talismans.

As for the talisman Yu Wen took out just now, she could see clearly that it was very ordinary and could even be described as crudely made.

The talisman used was extremely low-grade cinnabar, the color was wrong, and the yellow paper was also thin.

Runes are also the most common ghost-repelling runes, and they still drive away evil spirits.

Child ghosts are not considered evil ghosts. They are ghosts transformed into children who have not yet been born or died young. They have no thoughts and no concepts of good and evil, so they are not considered evil ghosts.They often appear next to newborn babies, and their purpose is not to scare them, but to play with them. However, the children do not know that doing so will kill the babies. Of course, they will be happy even if it kills them. After all, babies become their own kind after death.

Sure enough, even after Sun Zhifeng finished reciting the spell, Xingxing's crying still did not weaken.

Although the little ghost is not an evil ghost, it is still a kind of ghost and is still very sensitive to the talisman. After the spontaneous combustion of the talisman, the little ghost left the bedside slightly and grinned at the instigator.

Sun Zhifeng couldn't see the kid, but he could tell from Xingxing's cries that he had not taken him away.

what happened?

He was a little confused. In the past, when catching ghosts, he only needed to hold the talisman and recite the incantation. After the talisman burned spontaneously, he could drive away the ghosts. All he had to do was pretend to dance a few times with the sword to scare his employer. Get generous rewards.

Why did it fail today?

No... we can't just give up, this is 1000 million!My previous employer was not so generous!

Sun Zhifeng gritted his teeth, maybe it was just that the talisman was slower to take effect this time, so he had to wait a little longer!

Time passed little by little, and the crying in the baby room continued.

Perhaps because of crying for a long time, my throat felt uncomfortable and my crying became much hoarse.

Shen Shanjun frowned, a little anxious, why isn't it over yet?

Yao Ling was even more worried. Didn't Master Sun swear by this?He also said it was very simple. It has been almost half an hour. Why are Xingxing still crying?

Ye Yuran couldn't stand it anymore. Sun Zhifeng was just dancing around and it had no effect at all. She felt a little uncomfortable looking at the baby crying vigorously on the crib.

We can't wait any longer. At this rate, the stars will be taken away by the kid sooner or later.

Ye Yuran stepped into the room, and Yu Wen, who was guarding the door, said, "Get out."

Yu Wen lowered his voice and threatened: "Senior brother is doing something, do you want to go in and cause trouble?"

"Is he doing it or is he acting?" Ye Yuran sneered, "I've never seen anyone do anything but dance around with a sword!"

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Yu Wen was a little angry. He and his senior brother had been cheating for so long, and no one had ever seen through it. Moreover, most of their talismans were bought from the hands of the group of true Taoist priests, and the effect was still there, so they Most of the time, he relied on talismans. The senior brother's sword dance was indeed just for show, but how could he admit it?

Ye Yuran didn't want to argue with him anymore, so she raised her legs and walked to the room.

Of course, Yu Wen couldn't let Ye Yuran in. If she could really see something fishy, ​​he and his senior brother would definitely be in trouble.

If it's a small thing, their reputation becomes bad, but if it's a big thing, no one will come to them again.

Ye Yuran held Yu Wen's hand that stopped her, found an acupuncture point and clicked it.

Yu Wen's hands went numb for an instant and he exclaimed.

There was no light in the corridor. Shen Shanjun and Yao Ling had no idea what was happening at the door. Now when they heard Yu Wen's cry, they thought something had happened and quickly asked: "What's wrong?"

Ye Yuran snorted coldly: "Mr. Shen, the ugly words are ahead. If I don't go into the baby room, your child will be in trouble."

Hearing this, Shen Shanjun became anxious: "What's going on? Miss Ye?"

Yu Wen's forehead was sweating, and the numbness in his hands was so intense that he was speechless.

Ye Yuran pushed him away: "Mr. Shen, don't worry. I'll talk to you after I finish dealing with the brat."
