The useless second daughter of the Hua family

Ge Qinglan picked out a bunch of things that could be used and not used, and stuffed them all into the Qiankun bag.

Hua Miaomiao had lost her ginseng, so she had to settle for the next best thing and asked him to take some healing and nourishing things.

As soon as she got home, Hua Miaomiao said she was tired and wanted to go back to her room to rest. As soon as she entered the room, Pi Fu jumped out and was eager to study the wooden box. Hiding in Hua Miaomiao's sleeves just now, she saw everything outside clearly. When she saw the wooden box that the old monk took out, her eyes lit up with excitement.

Hua Miaomiao didn’t feel anything unusual about the wooden box, but Pi Fu felt that the box was special, so it must be something extraordinary.

"Master Pifu, could you help me solve my puzzle? What's so special about this box?"

Pi Fu was so happy that she generously explained to her: "Have you heard of '藏'? This is it."

Hidden? The artifact that is said to be made by a great monk, which can gather the spiritual energy of the world for the demons to practice in, and can completely cover up the demonic energy? No wonder the old monk said just now that this is just right for me, he must have seen through everything a long time ago, he is really a great man.

"But why can't I feel any spiritual power at all?" Hua Miaomiao was a little confused.

"That's why it's called 'hiding'. If you don't practice enough, you won't be able to feel it at all."

“……”There was some implication.

"Okay, I have to go in and heal my wounds. You guys are leaving soon, I'll try to get out as soon as possible."

"Okay. Just focus on healing your wounds. Don't worry. Ge Qinglan is here."

Pi Fu curled her lips and muttered quietly: "He is the one I am most worried about."

Hua Miaomiao found it a little funny. She didn't know why, but Pi Fu always disliked Ge Qinglan and would play tricks on him whenever she got the chance.

They chose a sunny day to set off. It was an ordinary carriage, but the interior was extremely luxurious. The entire inner wall of the carriage was covered with a layer of velvet and covered with soft and smooth satin. The bottom of the carriage was covered with thick mink, and there were several cushions and a small coffee table on it.

Hua Miaomiao leaned on the cushion while Ge Qinglan leisurely peeled peanuts and fed them to her one by one. Xiaoyu, who was standing by, watched this scene and felt very happy for her young lady. In order not to disturb them, she decided to stay in the front seat of the carriage for a while.

The person driving the carriage was Ge Qingcheng's most capable subordinate Zhao Xiaowu. Ge Qingcheng met this man when he was in trouble. The two hit it off immediately and appreciated each other. After helping Ge Qingcheng to subdue the Ge family, Zhao Xiaowu stayed by his side. Over the years, Zhao Xiaowu has become a capable butler. He followed a wandering master since he was a child and learned a lot of martial arts. This time when Ge Qinglan came out, he took the initiative to come and protect him. One is to take care of the food and clothing of several people, and the other is to help Ge Qinglan deal with the accounts of various branches, and to protect their safety by the way.

Seeing Xiaoyu coming out, he scratched his head shyly and asked, "Why did Miss Xiaoyu come out? But what do the young master and the others want?"

"It's okay, I just want to come out and see the scenery. Brother Xiao Wu, how long will it take us to reach our next stop?"

"At our current speed, we should be able to reach the town ahead before dinner."

Zhao Xiaowu is usually good at dealing with business situations, but for some reason, he is always at a loss and embarrassed in front of Xiaoyu.

Seeing how uneasy he looked, Xiaoyu didn't feel like talking to him anymore. They both sat there in silence, one driving while the other was in a daze.

They didn't know how much time had passed, the sun was already setting, and they were still driving on the empty lane.

Xiaoyu suddenly pointed to a spot on the side of the road and asked in horror: "Brother Xiaowu, do you see that kid over there?"

Zhao Xiaowu looked in the direction of her hand and found that there was indeed a child over there. He had his back to them, his shoulders shaking, and he seemed to be crying. "I saw it. What's wrong?"

Xiaoyu's face turned pale, tears welled up in her eyes. She said tremblingly: "This is the third time I have seen him. It has been several hours since I saw him in the afternoon, and he has been in the same posture. Brother Xiaowu, we may have met..." She did not dare to say anything more, tears were already falling.

Zhao Xiaowu's heart tightened, but he didn't show it on his face. When he was traveling around, he heard people say that when walking on a mountain road, they encountered ghosts blocking the road. He guessed that he was probably possessed. But he didn't want to scare Xiaoyu, so he just said that he might have lost his way.

"Hold on tight." He whipped the horse and increased the speed.

The two people in the car were drowsy and were jolted by the sudden acceleration.

Ge Qinglan stood up and was about to stick his head out, but the carriage suddenly stopped and he fell back.

"What's going on?" He asked as he lifted the curtain, and saw that the two people's faces were pale and they were looking straight ahead in horror.

Following their gaze, I saw a little boy in white clothes, with his back to the carriage, seemingly crying.

"Whose child is this? Why don't you go home so late at night? It's so dangerous to squat in the middle of the road." He was about to get out of the car, but as soon as he moved, he found that he couldn't move. It turned out that Hua Miaomiao in the car grabbed his clothes.

"Don't go over there." Hua Miaomiao said weakly. She felt a chill all around her, so cold that her whole body was shivering and even her breath was covered with white mist when she spoke.

Ge Qinglan knew something was wrong when he saw this, and he quickly pulled out the blanket and wrapped her up in his arms. It was summer now, and Miaomiao's abnormal behavior only meant one thing: the thing in front was not a human.

Seeing Hua Miaomiao in pain, Ge Qinglan was furious. Damn it! You bully me, and you don't even look at who's sitting in the carriage!

He took out his Qiankun bag, pulled out a Guanyin statue carved from warm jade and hung it around Hua Miaomiao's neck, then took out a bunch of ghost-exorcising talismans and handed them to Xiaoyu. "Come in! Stick them all around the inner wall of the carriage!"

Then he took out a Bagua mirror and handed it to Zhao Xiaowu, and took a demon-killing blade. "Today, I will show him who he shouldn't mess with! Brother Xiaowu, let's go!"

With the help of weapons, the two of them walked towards the little ghost with great momentum.

The little ghost was probably really scared and started crying.

The two of them didn't know what to do now. They were all scared just now, so they acted so violently. This kid was just a child after all, and now that he was crying, they suddenly felt like they were bullying the weak?

Hua Miaomiao felt better. She wrapped herself in a quilt and got off the carriage with the help of Xiaoyu, who did not dare to get too close.

"Don't cry first, tell us, who are you?" she asked softly, hoping to comfort the other person.

"I don't remember," the child sobbed. "I don't know why. I just couldn't leave your carriage. I didn't mean to scare you."

After saying that, he started crying again, looking so aggrieved that his crying made everyone feel guilty.
