Chapter 283: When Did Li Yan Get Married?
Professor Tang saw that Eldest Master Sun’s expression wasn’t right and subconsciously looked at him. He quickly reminded him, “Oxygen no longer works on Old Master Sun.”
Eldest Master Sun’s body trembled. After taking a deep look at Chu Luo, he quickly opened the door and shouted at the person outside, “Go and find a black dog immediately. The sooner, the better!”
There was a response from outside the door, followed by the sound of running feet.
Chu Luo quickly took out a few silver needles and sealed a few of Old Master Sun’s major acupoints. She said to Eldest Master Sun, “All of you, go out later. It’s best if all of you leave this house… If anyone’s birthday is close to Old Master Sun’s, you can leave one such person to keep guard outside the room. Remember, don’t let anyone enter your house.”
Eldest Master Sun opened his mouth to say something, but in the end, he nodded at her without saying anything.
The Sun family quickly brought over a black dog. It was a German shepherd.
When Chu Luo saw this huge dog, she was silent.
“Won’t this type do?” Seeing that Chu Luo was silent, Eldest Master Sun frowned and prepared to get someone to look for one again.
Chu Luo stopped him. “It’s too late. This one will have to do.”
After saying that, she added, “Can you guarantee that it won’t scream?”
Eldest Master Sun paused. “This dog is being raised by Tianhao. If you only want blood, I’ll let him in.”
Chu Luo thought for a moment and nodded.
Eldest Master Sun quickly called Sun Tianhao in.
Sun Tianhao and the German shepherd obviously had a good relations.h.i.+p. The German shepherd whimpered at the sight of him.
Sun Tianhao’s eyes revealed the pain of parting with his beloved. He quickly placed his gaze on the dying Old Master Sun’s face. His gaze instantly became firm, but his voice was choked with sobs. “What do you want me to do?”
Chu Luo glanced at him with bright eyes. She took out an empty syringe from the medicine box and handed it to him. “Draw me a tube of its blood.”
Sun Tianhao’s eyes, which had turned gray, suddenly lit up. He confirmed in disbelief, “You really only need one tube of blood?”
“You think it’s too little?”
“No, no. I’ll draw the blood immediately.”
After saying that, Sun Tianhao gestured to the German shepherd. “Blackie, come here.”
The German shepherd obediently ran to his side and rubbed its big head against him.
Sun Tianhao raised his hand to stroke its head and said, “Grandpa needs your blood now. Be obedient. I’ll draw only a tube of your blood.”
Blackie’s head rubbed against his hand and it whimpered.
Sun Tianhao drew a tube of blood from its body. Blackie really stood beside him without making a sound.
After Sun Tianhao finished drawing its blood, he quickly asked Chu Luo, “Can I take Blackie away now?” His expression seemed to be saying that he was afraid that she would suddenly say that she wanted Blackie’s life.
“There’s no hurry,” Chu Luo said when Sun Tianhao’s expression changed slightly. “Let it guard the living room with the person I mentioned.”
“Okay, then. Blackie and I will keep guard together.”
Chu Luo glanced at Sun Tianhao, who had a glint in his eyes. She guessed that he had been born in the same month as the Old Master.
She then said to Eldest Master Sun, “No matter what happens later, don’t panic. Remember, before I inform you to come in, no one is to come in. Otherwise, even a G.o.d won’t be able to save Old Master Sun.”
“Okay.”
Soon, Eldest Master Sun made everyone go out.
At this moment, it was still raining. He made arrangements. “Second and Third Brother, immediately bring people to surround the entire outer courtyard. Remember, no matter who it is, no one is allowed to enter. Fourth Brother, bring people to patrol inside.”
At this point, he looked at the youngsters. “You guys guard the courtyard. No one is allowed to enter. If anything happens inside, tell me immediately.”
“Okay.”
Everyone immediately split up.
After a while, Second Brother Sun strode in and said to Eldest Master Sun, “Big Brother, Li Yan’s car is parked outside our house.”
Eldest Master Sun frowned. “Why is that person here?”
He asked Second Master Sun, “Did he say why he came over?”
“No. He brought some people here too, but it looks like he has no intention of coming in. I went to ask and he said that he’s waiting for his wife.”
“Why is he waiting for his wife outside our house?”
“When did Li Yan get married?”
“Could he be here to cause trouble?”
“How dare he!”
The Sun family had never paid much attention to Li Yan, so they didn’t know about his relations.h.i.+p with Chu Luo. Anger appeared on the faces of the youngsters.
“Stop arguing.” Eldest Master Sun thought for a while and said to Second Master Sun with a straight face, “Send someone to watch him. If he dares to do anything rash, just kill him.”
“Okay.”
Second Master Sun turned around and left.
…
After everyone left, Chu Luo said to Professor Tang, “Professor Tang, go prepare some herbs. It’s best if you keep a close eye on them yourself.”
She told him the herbs she needed, and Professor Tang nodded and left.
After everyone had left, Chu Luo closed the door and strode back to Old Master Sun. She said to him, “Old Master Sun, someone wants to forcefully take away your soul. You have to be mentally strong at this time. I’ll do my best to help you.”
After saying that, she quickly took out a few yellow paper talismans from her Heaven-and-Earth pouch and spurted the black dog’s blood around the bed. At the same time, she used her internal energy to say to Sun Tianhao, who was guarding outside the door:
“When the black dog barks later, stop anyone you see. Even if it’s your parents, you don’t have to be polite. They’re just your hallucination. If they attack, you must attack too. Remember, once they enter, your grandfather will die.”
Sun Tianhao’s voice came from outside. “Got it.”
Chu Luo drew a few talismans in a row and quickly stuck them around the bed. The corners of her lips curled up. “It’s been a long time since I’ve dealt with such a person. Let me see how powerful such people in this world is.”
Half an hour later, the Sun residence was suddenly covered by a black cloud. The entire courtyard fell into darkness.
The younger generation of the Sun family panicked a little. Eldest Master Sun shouted, “Everyone, calm down.”
Everyone immediately came back to their senses and quickly raised their vigilance.
Li Yan, who was sitting in the car, looked at the Sun residence. The Buddha beads in his hand kept rotating.
Qin Ming, who was sitting in the front pa.s.senger seat, said to him, “Master, the Sun family has sent some people to watch us.”
Li Yan looked at the dark clouds above the Sun residence and nodded. After a while, he said, “Get someone to control the few roads here. If anyone barges in, report immediately.”
“Yes.”
…
Sun Tianhao, who had been waiting in the living room with Blackie, saw that the sky outside the house had instantly darkened. His heart sank, but he still maintained his calm.
After some time, Blackie suddenly shouted at the door.
Sun Tianhao stared at the door and subconsciously clenched his fists.
At this moment, the door was pushed open and his mother and aunt walked in.
Blackie was still barking at the two of them as if he didn’t know them at all.
Sun Tianhao’s heart beat faster subconsciously. Recalling Chu Luo’s words, he quickly said, “Go out. Don’t disturb Chu Luo from saving Grandfather.”
“Tianhao, your aunt and I are here to see how your grandfather is. We’ll stand by the door and take a look. We won’t go in.”
“Woof, woof, woof…”
“Tianhao, stop your dog. What’s wrong with it today? It looks like it wants to bite us as soon as it saw us.”
“Blackie won’t bite Mommy and Aunt. That is, unless you’re not…”
After Sun Tianhao finished speaking, he shouted at Blackie, “Blackie, bite them!”
“Woof, woof, woof…”
Blackie rushed over.
“Ah…”
The two women turned pale when they saw Blackie rus.h.i.+ng over. In the next second, their bodies turned into a black mist and disappeared.
This was the first time Sun Tianhao had seen such a situation. His expression changed, but he heaved a sigh of relief.
He patted Blackie’s head. “Blackie, thank G.o.d you’re here. Otherwise, I would have made a huge mistake today.”
“Boohoo…”
Chu Luo knew what was going on outside the door. When the two women entered, the lights in the room were extinguished.
She took out a lamp from her Heaven-and-Earth pouch and used magic to make a lampshade.
The sound of the wind suddenly came from the room, and the wind blew towards the lamp.
“Pfft!” Chu Luo sneered. “If you want to blow out my lamp, you’ll have to see if you have the ability.”
After saying that, she said to Phoenix, “Phoenix, protect Old Master Sun well.”
Phoenix appeared and hovered above Old Master Sun’s bed.
A red light flashed and Chu Luo disappeared from the room.
In the next second, she had already arrived at a corridor that led to the bas.e.m.e.nt.
There was a candle burning at a certain distance in the corridor. The flickering candlelight elongated Chu Luo’s shadow.
She walked towards the end of the corridor.
After she’d been walking for about two to three minutes, a thick stone door appeared in front of her.
At this moment, the stone door opened automatically. There was a huge room inside. There were 81 white candles lit on the ground. A white-bearded old man wearing a Daoist robe and holding a horsetail whisk sat in the middle. There were more than ten middle-aged men who were also wearing Daoist robes sitting around him.
These people were obviously doing a ritual.
When they saw Chu Luo standing by the door, they were surprised.
The white-bearded old man shouted in a low voice, “Capture the trespa.s.ser.”
“Hmph! So many of you actually ganged up to harm an old man. Don’t you know shame?”
“Arrogant brat, you actually dare to come and teach us a lesson? Then let us see how powerful you are.”
The people sitting outside suddenly moved. They instantly jumped in front of Chu Luo and cast spells on her.
