Ten days after they got married, the master and his wife gave them a long vacation, so Ji Yan and Ji Sheng went down the mountain to go sightseeing.

On the fifth day of the tenth lunar month, the two of them passed through Dongzhou and decided to stay here for a few days.

The inns in the town were full, and no matter what special time it happened, no matter which inn I went to, there were no vacancies.

Ji Yan found it strange, but when she and Ji Sheng were at a loss what to do, a man in a blue shirt found them and took the initiative to invite them to his house. The man in a green shirt was the housekeeper of the local wealthy businessman Mr. Liu's family, surnamed Zhou.

Butler Zhou said that Mr. Liu saw the two of them being very popular on the way back to the house and seemed to be encountering difficulties again, so he asked Butler Zhou to invite the two of them to stay in the house, so as to take this opportunity to make friends with them.

Ji Yan and Ji Sheng looked at each other and agreed.

It's just that they haven't been to Dongzhou for a long time, and there seems to be something weird here.

What Ji Yan is not afraid of the most is weirdness. This is the task of catching the demon master. It can be said that the soldiers will stop him and the water will cover him.

The Liu Mansion is very lavishly renovated, and Master Liu's financial resources can be seen from the outside.

Butler Zhou invited the two people into the house and ordered people to clean up the two guest rooms. Ji Yan interrupted: "One room is enough. We are husband and wife."

After hearing this, Butler Zhou's face looked a little strange. Ji Yan felt strange, but when she looked closely, the man returned to his original friendly and harmless face, and said with emotion: "I didn't expect that the girl is already married. I must have Are you newlyweds? Zhou doesn’t know what to say, so I’d like to congratulate you both on your wedding.”

Hearing this, the girl bent her eyes and smiled, her voice soft and harmless: "Thank you so much, Butler Zhou."

But the Liu family is also strange. Butler Zhou said that Mr. Liu wanted to make friends with her and Jisheng, but he never came to meet her. Butler Zhou only sent them to the guest room, and the food was delivered to the room on time, and rarely came back after that. There are even servants patrolling outside the courtyard.

This is nothing like entertaining guests, it's more like house arrest.

Ji Yan sighed, and asked her how could her master and his wife be so kind as to give her a year-long vacation to travel around the mountains and rivers. It turned out that she was waiting for her here. If a demon catcher encounters an evil spirit in the world, he should not just sit idly by and ignore it. She and Ji Yan In this journey of life, I'm afraid there are only a few days where I can truly relax and enjoy myself.

There is something weird about Liu Mansion, and even the entire Dongzhou is a bit weird.

The last time this happened was when Jisheng was a great demon.

Ji Sheng obviously noticed something was wrong. Ji Yan took out a talisman and said, "I plan to secretly follow Butler Zhou. Do you want to go?"

Ji Sheng nodded, and Ji Yan took out two more talismans, used the talisman paper to transform two stand-in puppets, placed them on the couch, and covered them with quilts. Even if someone came to check on them secretly, they would only think that they were sleeping.

Then they used the talisman to become invisible, and the two of them left the yard without anyone noticing.

Ji Yan held Ji Sheng's hand, sighed slightly and said, "I'm sorry, I should have been with you well, but this happened again."

Jisheng lowered his eyes and looked at the hands held by the two of them, and said: "This can be considered companionship."

Ji Yan couldn't help but raise her head and glance at him, thinking that it wasn't too miserable. She seemed to understand the painstaking efforts of the master and his wife. We shared hardships and overcame them together. Unforgettable experiences were far more inspiring than ordinary daily life. close distance between each other.

...

Ji Yan led Ji Sheng around the Liu Mansion for a long time before finally finding Butler Zhou.

Housekeeper Zhou seemed to be in the study, she and Ji Sheng opened the door and walked in.

In the eyes of others, the study door was suddenly opened, but there was nothing outside.

Butler Zhou had a ghost in his heart, his heart skipped a beat, and he comforted himself: "It should be that the door was not closed tightly and was blown open by the wind."

After saying that, he stepped forward and closed the door tightly.

In addition to Butler Zhou, there is another person in the study. This person is handsome. Although he is old, he can still tell that he must have been a handsome and elegant young man in his youth. He should be Mr. Liu.

When Butler Zhou came back from closing the door, he continued to say to Mr. Liu: "Master, that Miss Ji is as beautiful as a fairy. She is on par with the young lady. I believe the Lord God will like her. It's just..."

Master Liu frowned: "Just what?"

Butler Zhou said: "It's just that Miss Ji is already married and is not a perfect woman. I'm afraid the Lord God will mind."

Upon hearing this, Master Liu pondered for a moment before speaking, "The Lord of Gods only asked for a pair of boys and girls, and a beautiful woman, but did not say that she had to be a virgin. If she can help Ling'er avoid this disaster, the Liu family will set up a tablet for her after the success, and offer incense and offerings every day. They will also invite someone to perform a ritual so that she can be reborn into a wealthy family in the next life."

Ji Yan: "..." I thank you.

But who is the divine king that Master Liu calls? Ji Yan has never heard of an extra god in the world, but this process of requiring a boy and a girl to be a beautiful woman, she knows with her feet that it must be caused by an evil spirit. This evil spirit is also smart and knows how to use faith. It must be He has accumulated many believers in Dongzhou, and he uses both kindness and power to make the people of Dongzhou obey his orders and dare not or even want to ask for help from the outside world. Perhaps this monster has indeed brought benefits that cannot be refused to the believers.

After listening for a long time, Ji Yan almost understood the cause and effect.

This demon requires believers to hand in a tribute every month. As for how to select the tribute, it is decided by drawing lots. The young lady of the Liu family, Liu Qiuling, is very beautiful and has a beautiful face, so she was included in the list of draws. The luck of the Liu family is not very good. , even though Mr. Liu had taken care of it in advance, he still couldn't stop Liu Qiuling from being selected as a tribute.

If the person in charge of drawing lots did not intend to harm Miss Liu, then the Evil God himself chose Liu Qiuling himself, and the result of the lot was just the result of the Evil God choosing his concubine.

Master Liu was helpless, so he came up with a way to find someone to replace Liu Qiuling as a tribute. Ji Yan was also unlucky and was targeted by the Liu family.

After understanding the cause and effect, Ji Yan left the study with Jisheng.

The door to the study room opened inexplicably again. Mr. Liu and Butler Zhou felt horrified and uneasy. However, Ji Yan and Ji Sheng had already returned to the guest room, put away the puppets, and took off the invisibility talisman. Ji Yan looked up Asked Jisheng: "Asheng, what do you think about this matter?"

"Monsters are causing trouble, just kill them."

"That's true, but it's not clear where he is hiding."

When they stepped into Dongzhou, they felt that everything was weird, but they didn't feel the aura of the monster. They thought that this monster pretending to be a god should have some treasures on it that can cover up the aura.

"So, I plan to use the trick. We are bound by a heart spell and can sense each other's position. You will come to help me when the time comes."

"No." Jisheng said after careful consideration, "I will be the bait."
