Chapter 36: People Don't Offend Me, I Don't Offend People

Madam Audrey Hill (now named Audrey Hill Chen) is indeed in a somewhat unfavorable situation at present, disturbed by a Mirror Ghost, with that ghost's evil qi still clinging to her.

However, as long as she does not look into that mirror again for now, there is no danger to her life.

But as long as that Mirror Ghost remains unresolved for a single day, eventually it will consume a person's essence, qi, and spirit; as its cultivation deepens it will break free of its cage and roam among all mirrors in the world without obstruction.

When that time comes it will remember this prey that once escaped; on that day, Madam's probability of death approaches infinitely close to certain doom! Resolution method: Based on the ghostly evil qi currently contaminating Madam, this ghost object already has a hundred-odd years of cultivation, except it has only just awakened from its seal, and its current strength is not even one-tenth of what it was; wanting to resolve it is actually still very easy.

You are rather lazy; your daily practice of the Five Animals Guiding Technique falls short of four hours, so although your strength is somewhat greater than ordinary people's, you still possess only mortal strength.

Therefore you can only rely on external objects to destroy this demonic ghost evil spirit.

Then the information further listed the following categories of objects that can subdue demonic ghosts, to resolve this crisis.

【Black Dog Blood: The most yang-filled exorcism object; one must find a black dog without any mixed hairs, take its blood, and splash it when luring it out — like pouring hot water on snow!

But finding a black dog without mixed hairs is comparatively difficult; although its effect is strongest, it is also the hardest to find.

If a mixed-hair-free black dog cannot be found, another exorcism object may be used instead.

Rooster Comb Blood: A rooster of five years or older; the older and sturdier the rooster, the fuller its yang qi.

Take its comb blood, grind it together with Cinnabar to make ink, dip a brush in it as a demon-subduing instrument — destroying evil objects and wicked ghosts is no difficult task! Or use this as ink to write talismans and draw spells, the effect is even better.

But observing this world, roosters of five years or older are likewise hard to find; the exorcism objects currently suitable for you now leave only the last two kinds.

Tiankui Blood Menstrual Cloth: If the two above are the utmost-yang treasures suitable for mortals to drive away ghosts and exorcise evil, then Tiankui Blood is an utmost-yin, utmost-filthy object that can directly contaminate the soul.

Evil spirits and ghosts are mostly souls of dead people or beasts who died with unwillingness or resentment, failing to enter reincarnation; Tiankui touching them is like a person touching extremely acidic liquid — they will suffer immensely.

Menstrual Cloth is the object used by women when their Tiankui arrives; stained with Tiankui, washed, stained again, repeated back and forth, filthy to the extreme. If this object is used to bind an evil spirit or ghost demon, that ghost demon will be like a person falling into a pool of extremely acidic liquid, thoroughly dissolving into the world, never to return for ten thousand kalpas.

Alternatively, find a virgin boy who has not lost his virginity; the boy must not be too young, for if too young his yang qi is insufficient, and he must absolutely not have lost his virginity, for losing it means his yang qi is no longer complete.

Therefore the boy's age should be twelve full years or older — the complete number of the Earthly Branches; at this time a boy whose essence and qi are complete and who has not lost his virginity, take that day's urine, named Virgin Boy Urine.

Splashing this on a ghost demon or evil spirit is like pouring boiling water on snow, like extreme acid dissolving a person, like Aqua Regia dissolving gold — all take immediate effect! Both of these are ordinary objects, easier for mortals to obtain, to hold against wicked ghosts.

They are even more than sufficient to deal with the Mirror Ghost that has just broken its seal at present.】

Reasonably speaking, a Western couple receiving such a huge fright would definitely embrace upon meeting, then comfort each other and so on.

But this is a fake marriage, isn't it? A fake marriage? Seeing him, Audrey merely explained in a low voice: "I'm home, but my mom seems to have gone to work, there's no one at home, so I...

I'm really scared...

I didn't have hallucinations, I didn't touch Marijuana, I didn't touch any hallucinogenic drugs.

But I just saw that terrifying Elizabeth in the mirror..."

Chen Yaozu naturally knew she hadn't touched those things; he reached out and lightly patted the other's shoulder, comforting her very seriously: "I know, I believe you!"

Audrey had prepared a thousand words, wanting to do her utmost to persuade this nominal husband to believe what she had seen.

Because she had indeed seen it, yet others couldn't see it and all denied her; actually by now she was even starting to doubt herself a little.

But unexpectedly, without using any of the bellyful of words she had prepared, she got back a single sentence: I know, I believe you.

This feeling of being doubted by everyone, then finding validation, is really wonderful.

This sense of trust nearly made her break down in tears.

So her bellyful of words, at the moment of speaking, turned into a choked sob: "I've already called Mom; she said she's wrapped up her work and will come right over!" The words had just fallen when they saw an Old Car driving over from afar — that was Olivia's car.

The two hurried to meet it.

"Audrey, did you touch Marijuana?"

Olivia had just stopped the car and opened the door, anxiously shouting the question loudly.

"Listen, I don't care if Marijuana is legal in Los Angeles, but I've told you, don't touch that stuff, don't touch that stuff, it will ruin you..."

"Mom, I didn't!"

Olivia's questioning hadn't finished before it was blocked by Audrey's one short answer.

"Ms. Hill, Audrey did not touch those things, I can guarantee it! After all, her name is now Audrey Hill Chen, I will guarantee my own family doesn't touch that stuff either!"

That's right!

Now Audrey's name is Audrey Hill Chen; it's hard to imagine, perhaps only a few countries in the whole world, or rather only the East this one country, where a woman doesn't change her surname after marriage.

America, after Audrey married Chen Yaozu, she had to change her surname, no longer surnamed Hill but Chen.

Hearing it wasn't from touching Marijuana, Olivia visibly breathed a sigh of relief: "Good that it's not a hallucination from touching Marijuana!"

But immediately she grew tense again; if not a hallucination from touching Marijuana, then what reason caused the hallucination: "Has the School Doctor given you a diagnosis?"

Audrey shook her head: "The School Doctor said it might be that my study and life are too tense, suggested the school give me a few days off.

So I came back!

But I'm telling the truth, I really saw a ghost in the mirror, another bizarre Elizabeth."

Chen Yaozu also nodded along: "I can also guarantee, what Audrey says is true, she saw a real ghost, a ghost sealed inside a mirror.

For some reason it was just unsealed, but because it was sealed for too long its strength has dropped severely, so it can only move within that mirror.

But very regrettably, Audrey has the other party's planted coordinate on her; when that ghost's strength recovers to where it can walk among all mirrors in the world, it will cross over via the coordinate to any reflective mirror surface near Audrey and kill her!"

Only then did Olivia recall that this cheap son-in-law of hers wasn't a Wizard? So there really are ghosts in this world? These months she had been helping this cheap son-in-law drum up business, and had also witnessed that this son-in-law indeed had the ability to help people resolve possible disasters and difficulties.

This Wizard, or Medium, or Prophet, truly has genuine skill, living up to the name.

Then now, this son-in-law says there really are ghosts in this world, so there really are ghosts.

Since each profession has its specialty, let the son-in-law make the call.

"Then what do we do now?"

She asked.

Chen Yaozu wore a confident smile: "We Eastern people have a saying: 'If people don't offend me, I don't offend them; if people offend me, I exterminate their whole clan!'

At any rate, Audrey is now this Eastern Wizard's wife, so naturally she cannot suffer this grievance.

Since that ghost dared plant a coordinate on Audrey, don't blame me for destroying it while it hasn't recovered its strength!

After all, we Easterners have another saying: 'Strike while he's sick, take his life!'"
