The weather in late autumn was neither cold nor hot, and it was comfortable to sleep at night.
Zhang Yan didn't sleep for a whole night until the rooster's roar woke her up.
She was going to the market today, so she had to see if Uncle Lin had finished making the cart. After all, there were still many herbs waiting to be sold in the house.
The moment he opened the door, Song Qi was already standing outside with his hands behind his back. No one knew what he was thinking.
However, just as she was about to ask him properly, that guy suddenly pulled her behind him, blocking her line of sight. Zhang Yan's eyes could only see his broad shoulders, and a few strands of hair were scattered on his arms.
"What's wrong?"
As soon as she said that, she heard the sound of footsteps coming from outside. They were coming in one by one.
Before she could see anyone, she heard Old Madam Zhang shout loudly,"Taoist priest, that girl here is a ghost. You must treat her well. It's best if you take her in!”
The corners of Zhang Yan's mouth curled up. She did not expect him to come so early.
But she didn't think it was a big deal. As long as Old Madam Zhang didn't find it bad luck, it was fine.
Now that he saw Song Qi standing in front of him, his tone was very light."It's okay. It might not be the end today.”
As soon as he shouted, a large group of people came outside.
Leading them were Jiang Lizheng and a Taoist priest in a long robe. Behind them were dark villagers. The scene was very grand.
Old Madam Zhang had looked energetic just now, but when she saw Zhang Yan, she was so frightened that she immediately shrank her neck and stopped looking at her.
"What's wrong? Are you calling me a ghost again?”
Zhang Yan walked out from behind Song Qi and stared at Old Madam Zhang.
Now that Old Madam Zhang did not dare to look at her, she felt a little refreshed.
This time, it really scared her.
"Zhang Yan, your grandmother said that you were a ghost. The villagers were all frightened, so I found a Taoist priest.”
Jiang Lizheng had already talked to Zhang Yan, so he naturally knew what to do now. Zhang Yan did not refute and only turned her attention to Old Madam Zhang.
"Old Madam Zhang, you said I'm a ghost. Do you have any proof?" she asked with a smile.”
"After all, I'm standing here in broad daylight.”
Old Madam Zhang still did not dare to look at her, but the anger in her tone did not diminish at all. When she heard this, she immediately stretched her neck and shouted at her.
"I saw it with my own eyes! I saw your true face on the roof that night! Zhang Yan, no, you female ghost, stop denying it here! Daoist priest, quickly burn her."
The smile on Zhang Yan's face widened.
"You keep saying that I'm a female ghost. Since that's the case, do I still have to deny you here? Since I'm a ghost, why are you still standing here? Why don't I come for your life?”
"Besides, what do you want to do by coming to my house so late at night? And you climbed onto my roof.”
Old Madam Zhang's mouth twitched. She didn't know what to say for a long time. After a while, she shouted again.
"I've long guessed that you're not clean, so I wanted to find the black dog's blood to force you to show yourself! But I didn't expect you to reveal your true colors without doing anything!”
"If I'm not a ghost, what would you do?”
Hearing Zhang Yan's words, Old Madam Zhang immediately jumped up and swore to God,"I, Old Madam Zhang, swear on my life that if you're not a ghost, I'll let you do whatever you want with my old life!”
Zhang Yan smiled. Hearing her speak so frankly, she was afraid that she would regret it faster than anyone else.
"Alright, since that's the case, I'll have to trouble Uncle Jiang to testify for me. If the words I say to Old Madam Zhang later are biased, then her life will be mine.”
"Alright, I'll make the decision for you. Taoist priest, go and do the ritual.”
