Ju Hua Zai Liu Lang

Chapter 86 The Charlatan

The Daoist Huang was still preparing yellow talismans when Li Se's voice startled him, causing his hand to shake. He immediately became angry and looked at Li Se coldly, saying, "Who are you? You're disturbing my ritual here. If anything unexpected happens, can you bear the responsibility?"

Liang Yingzhuo also looked displeased and said, "Junhao, have your friend leave. If he interferes with Daoist Huang's ritual and something happens to my child, even you won't be spared!"

Lin Junhao was puzzled. This Daoist Huang looked like a charlatan to him, so why would Liang Yingzhuo believe him?

Li Se said earnestly, "Daoist Huang, isn't it? What you're holding is clearly a soul-summoning talisman. I don't know how you got this yellow talisman, but using it on Dongdong will only worsen his condition!"

Dongdong already had Yin-Yang eyes, often seeing things invisible to ordinary people. Now, with the soul-summoning talisman, wasn't Daoist Huang just attracting spirits to Dongdong?

As expected, after the soul-summoning talisman was used, quite a few spirits had already gathered.

"There are so many brothers and sisters," Dongdong said at this moment, his expression becoming much more vacant and listless than before.

Liang Yingzhuo's face changed slightly upon seeing this. "Daoist Huang, what's going on?"

Daoist Huang smiled and said, "Don't worry, watch me break the spirits!"

As he spoke, Daoist Huang produced a bronze coin sword and a compass. He waved them, chanting something. Dongdong's body began to tremble, and he seemed to be in great pain.

"Bad!" Daoist Huang's expression shifted. He flew backward and crashed heavily against the wall behind him. Clutching his chest, he said, "Because my ritual was disturbed earlier, the ghost has become powerful!"

Upon hearing this, Liang Yingzhuo yelled at Li Se, "Kid, if anything happens to my son, I'll make you pay!"

"What are you shouting about?" Old Master Liang was displeased. He had a good impression of Li Se. "Are you so sure this Daoist Huang isn't a charlatan?"

Daoist Huang raised an eyebrow, quite unhappy, but outwardly showed respect to Old Master Liang. He said weakly, "Master Liang, if I were a charlatan, would I be injured?"

He then pointed at Li Se and said sternly, "It's all because this kid interfered with me. Now, not only is the child getting worse, but I'm also seriously injured."

Madam Liang quickly hugged her son and cried, "Daoist Huang, you must save my son!"

"No matter the cost, I'll pay!" Liang Yingzhuo immediately said.

Daoist Huang was waiting for this. He had merely staged a feigned injury to get more money. Now that his goal was achieved, he put on a brave face and said, "Alright, I'll have to use my ultimate technique, but this will be very draining for me..."

"Don't worry, whatever Daoist Huang needs, I will provide!" Liang Yingzhuo quickly said.

Daoist Huang nodded and was about to perform the ritual when Li Se spoke again, "You're using a child for profit!"

"Who is this? Interfering with me time and time again?" Daoist Huang was somewhat annoyed.

Liang Yingzhuo's face also turned grim. "Junhao, please have your friend leave immediately, or don't blame me for being impolite!"

"Uncle Liang, Li Shenyi's medical skills are absolutely trustworthy. Instead of believing this charlatan, why not..." Lin Junhao tried to say something.

Liang Yingzhuo interrupted him coldly, "No need!"

Old Master Liang snorted, "I think what young friend Li said might not be wrong. Let him stay. If anything truly happens later, young friend Li can provide immediate assistance!"

"Dad, he..."

"Enough. Are you not listening to me anymore?"

Liang Yingzhuo had no choice but to say no more. He glared fiercely at Li Se, then asked Daoist Huang to proceed.

If not for the fact that Daoist Huang's methods could potentially harm the child, Li Se would have already left. But as a doctor, he couldn't stand by and watch.

"Mr. Liang, he keeps disturbing me!" Daoist Huang said with great displeasure.

Liang Yingzhuo looked at Li Se. Out of respect for his father, he couldn't directly expel him. He simply said in a deep voice, "I hope you won't speak again!"

Seeing that Li Se seemed to have stopped speaking, Daoist Huang didn't hesitate. He grabbed a handful of powder from his pocket and sprinkled it on Dongdong, chanting something.

After a while, Dongdong fell asleep.

Daoist Huang, with a pale face, said to Liang Yingzhuo, "He'll be fine after a sleep."

"Thank you, Daoist Huang," Liang Yingzhuo said gratefully and immediately handed over a bank card. "There are twenty million here as remuneration."

"Thank you, Mr. Liang," Daoist Huang said, accepting the bank card. He then glanced at Li Se somewhat triumphantly. In his opinion, this fellow was trying to steal his business, but unfortunately, he was clearly more skilled.

"The powder you sprinkled just now had a hypnotic effect, didn't it?" Li Se interjected unexpectedly.

Daoist Huang was no longer angry. After all, with twenty million in hand, his mood was good. He didn't bother to explain anything to Li Se. Even if it had a hypnotic effect, so what? As long as Liang Yingzhuo believed him, it was fine.

"Ah!"

But at this moment, Dongdong, who had been asleep, suddenly screamed. His body trembled again, his tender face contorted in pain, as if being tormented by something.

"Dongdong, what's wrong? Dongdong, don't scare Mommy," Madam Liang cried out.

But Dongdong couldn't wake up. He remained in great pain, his body trembling even more violently. His arms flailed continuously as he cried out, "Don't come near... Don't come near..."

"What's going on?" Old Master Liang's aged face changed.

Liang Yingzhuo immediately looked at Daoist Huang, "Daoist Huang, what's happening? Didn't you say he'd be fine after a sleep?"

Daoist Huang also began to panic. He shook his head and said, "I don't know."

In his view, concepts like Yin-Yang eyes and seeing ghosts were nonsense. Therefore, he had merely employed a small trick. Even if he slept, things would return to normal. The money in hand was real. With these twenty million, he could just run away.

Who knew that this situation would arise? It made no sense. Could the yellow talisman in his hand really be a soul-summoning talisman?

Thinking of something, Daoist Huang immediately pointed at Li Se and angrily said, "It was him who disturbed my ritual just now. It must be!"

Li Se sneered, "Daoist Huang, you must be joking. From beginning to end, I only said a few words, and that disturbed your ritual?"
