Chapter 134: Chapter 134: The Small Wooden Carving That Guards the House
Hua Jinyan was very talented in painting. He asked Tian Leran for paper and pencil and quickly sketched the appearance of the maid.
Seeing the portrait on the paper, Tao Mo and Tian Leran exclaimed in surprise.
Tao Shen’s eyes were dark and gloomy, “It’s her! Has she turned into an evil spirit?”
Tao Shen had only heard his grandfather briefly mention his sister’s abilities, which should be similar to Hua Jinyan’s, capable of seeing soul bodies that ordinary people couldn’t see.
He had known that Hua Jinyan could see them, but he hadn’t expected that his sister in this life would have the same ability.
As a reborn individual, he had no doubts about all this and believed it deeply.
Cheng Guodong looked at Tao Mo and asked, “Old master, is this maid the main culprit?”
Cheng Guodong and Qin Xin had investigated the past events and knew that Little Taotie was swapped and sold by the maid back then.
Tao Mo nodded with difficulty, his expression solemn, “She has already been punished by the law, but I never expected that she would cause trouble after death!”
Tian Leran took out her phone, busily making a call to an old friend, “Hey, sister, do you still have the contact information for the feng shui master you invited to our house last time? Quick, quick, quick, send it to me!”
Tian Leran didn’t stop there, calling another old friend, “Hey, sister, where is that very effective temple you mentioned? Quick, quick, quick, send me the address!”
She dialed yet another number, “Hey, sister, you said that there was a powerful Taoist temple, where is it? Send me the address, fast! Quick, quick, quick!”
Then she made another call, “Hey, sister, you went to Thailand last time, you said something about a powerful dragon, what, it’s gone? Then does he have any disciples, any contact information? Quick, quick, quick, send it to me!”
Tao Mo silently looked at his wife, wanting to say something but not daring to criticize her, only able to quietly watch her, hoping his gaze would convey his thoughts: You’re overdoing it, don’t go too far! Are you planning to have all the mysticism experts sit down together for tea in one room? Aren’t you afraid that they’ll fight due to their different sects?
Tian Leran pushed her glasses and glanced at him sideways, “Old man, do you have an opinion about me?”
The old master hurriedly lowered his head like a quail.
Tao Ti cocked her head to look at the grandma who silenced Grandpa Fensi, feeling a little scared, and instinctively hid behind Grandpa Fensi as she whispered, “Is that Grandma Fensi? She’s so fierce…”
Although her voice was small, Tian Leran, who studied music, had an especially keen ear and heard it all!
Panic struck the old lady’s heart.
All is lost, the first impression couldn’t be worse!
What if my granddaughter doesn’t like me, what should I do!
Seeing his wife’s anxiety, the old master hastily explained, “She was frightened by the evil spirit, that’s why she reacted this way.”
“Frightened?” Tao Ti tilted her head, not understanding what there was to fear about evil spirits. A slap from her could turn them into delicious chocolate; they weren’t scary at all!
Tao Ti took out the bulging object from her pocket, a small wooden carving.
In the Shaolin Temple, the old monks had lots of wood, and they loved to carve. Combined with the fact that in her dreams she was always with the War God and saw him carving, she had learned a bit of the craft herself.
When she had nothing better to do, she’d sit with the old monks and carve a small piece of wood along with them.
She had carved the image of the Little Beast Bai Bai. It wasn’t as exquisitely lifelike as the War God’s carvings and had a slightly crooked mouth, but she had tried her best.
She handed over the palm-sized wooden carving, her voice shy and tender, “Grandma Fensi, this is a gift for our first meeting. Put it by your bedside, and no evil spirits will disturb you! You don’t have to be afraid, I’ll go upstairs and catch that evil spirit to eat!”
