Chapter 114 Big Brother Shaoyang Fell into a Trap

Ye Shaoyang quietly sighed . The arctic silkworm originated from the northmost region of the Underworld . In ancient times, a Miaojiang supreme witch brought one to the mortal world . However, the arctic silkworm could only survive if the witch cultivated it into a Gu . It could spit out silk that completely isolated spirit and demon Qi . That was why the paG.o.da tree demon had failed to kill Tan Xiaohui; the silk could even defend against a supreme demon . But the arctic silkworm’s silk feared fire . So, the silk would melt once a fire heated it up .

“As far as I know, there are very few arctic silkworms, so they are consecrated as the holy beings of Miaojiang witches . The arctic silkworms are relics pa.s.sed down through the supreme white witch family . So, are you from the supreme white witch family?” Ye Shaoyang asked as his eyes glittered .

Tan Xiaohui’s eyes flickered . She hung her head, “I have to admit that I’m from the supreme white witch family . But I can’t tell you any more, as it is a family secret . I’m sorry . I can’t tell you more even though you saved my life . ”

Ye Shaoyang nodded, “Understood . I won’t ask any further . But why did none of your family members search for you after the incident?”

Tan Xiaohui bitterly smiled, “I’m sorry again . It is part of my family’s secret . I can’t divulge the answer to your question . ”

Ye Shaoyang shrugged his shoulders, “Alright, then tell me about that spirit . Don’t tell me it is also related to your family’s secret?”

Terror instantly filled Tan Xiaohui’s eyes; she muttered, “It’s horrifying! It has a skull for a face . Rice straw-like things filled its head, and it wore a black cloak . b.l.o.o.d.y crusts covered its upper body, and its lower body had multiple tentacles that resembled the tree demon . It looked like a blood form spirit .

“When we fought, blood kept spilling out from its body . After each droplet of blood fell onto the ground, it would transform into another blood form spirit . Through my observation, I think it was at least a supreme spirit . But this creature had both spirit Qi and demon Qi, which piqued my curiosity . I had no choice but to use Blood Witchcraft to escape from the temple . In the end, the spirit and the paG.o.da tree demon still managed to corner me… . ”

Ye Shaoyang felt internally shocked . This was the first time he had heard of a spirit that contained both spirit Qi and demon Qi . Was it a combination of a spirit and a demon? In all likelihood, he felt that this spirit was Madam Chee’s spirit servant . If a spirit servant had so much power, how great was Madam Chee?

“I heard from Jingru . She said that you want to subdue that old demon—Madam Chee?” Tan Xiaohui asked as she looked at Ye Shaoyang .

“Since I took up this matter, I’ll finish her off . Do you want to join me?”

Tan Xiaohui nodded, “Madam Chee trapped me in the paG.o.da tree for three years . I want to take revenge on her . Furthermore, my female cousin’s corpse still lies in that well . I must find a way to bring up her corpse . I can’t let her stay in that place forever . ”

Ye Shaoyang happily replied, “That’s great . I plan to go down the well to survey it . You can a.s.sist me . Nope, I should say that we can help each other . ”

Zhou Jingru immediately cut in, “She can’t go with you tomorrow . She is weak now . She needs to rest for at least a few days . ”

Ye Shaoyang scratched his head, “Alright, I need to go back and make some preparations too . ”

Then, the three of them returned to their bedrooms and tidied up their belongings . After that, Zhou Jingru drove them back to Stone City .

On the way back, Zhou Jingru asked Tan Xiaohui, “Is there any place that you want to visit? Or is there anyone you need to meet up with?”

Tan Xiaohui shook her head, “I don’t have any close friends in Stone City . I’ve lost contact with my friends from those days . I don’t want to go anywhere, and I’ve no place to go . ”

Zhou Jingru replied, “You can stay at my house . My father has gone outstation . He won’t come back for a few weeks . I feel bored staying alone in the house . I can get you some nutritious food to help you recover faster . ”

Tan Xiaohui smiled, “Thank you very much . I’m so glad to meet such a good sister after I just woke up . ”

Zhou Jingru smiled in return, “You’re welcome . I feel that we can get along very well . We can surely become a pair of good sisters . ”

Ye Shaoyang shrugged his shoulders . He could not understand why girls could become as close as sisters after they just got to know each other . After the meeting with Tan Xiaohui, Ye Shaoyang went back to the apartment . When he opened the door, he saw Xiao Ma, who laid stomach-first on the tea table . His left hand held a book, and his right hand held a Chinese brush . He slowly drew on a sheet of yellow talisman paper . He looked up and saw Ye Shaoyang . Surprisingly, he exclaimed, “Little Ye, you’re still alive . Come and comment on my h.e.l.lfire Talisman Paper!”

“h.e.l.lfire Talisman Paper?” Ye Shaoyang walked toward Xiao Ma and saw a stack of yellow talisman papers beside his foot . Ye Shaoyang frowned, “What’re you doing?”

“I’m practicing drawing talisman papers . I feel you look cool when you capture spirits . I want to learn the Dao craft too . Old Guo sold me this book, and I’ve been practicing for the whole night . ” Xiao Ma closed the book and pa.s.sed it to Ye Shaoyang .

‘The Comprehensive Textbook of Maoshan’s Dao Craft’—drawing of talisman papers was the beginner art of the Dao craft . This was a basic skill that all Maoshan Sect disciples must acquire . Old Guo did not lie to Xiao Ma, but the charges… .

Ye Shaoyang coldly smiled . He did not show any interest in Xiao Ma’s actions, “The path to becoming a Daoist is dull and dry . I don’t think you can persist till the end . ”

Xiao Ma rolled his eyes, “You don’t even encourage me . I’ve made a firm resolution . I’ll learn it and prove you wrong . ”

“I’ll admit my mistake if you can continue for one week . ” Although Ye Shaoyang tried to discourage Xiao Ma, he still corrected some of the errors in Xiao Ma’s drawing . Xiao Ma drew a h.e.l.lfire Talisman Paper after Ye Shaoyang’s correction . Then, he recited the chant stated in the book . However, nothing happened even after he said it a few times . Ye Shaoyang coldly smiled, “It’s impossible to walk if you don’t learn how to crawl . If you want to master it, you’ve to draw for at least three months . ”

Xiao Ma frowned when he heard Ye Shaoyang’s words . He said nothing and continued to draw on talisman papers . Then, Ye Shaoyang returned to his bedroom . He took out a small book from his luggage . The book had messy papers that were randomly stapled and had blurred words . It could not even count as a proper book . However, this book fascinated Ye Shaoyang . He involuntarily extended his right hand and formed a few hand seals . Sometimes, he dropped the book to form a hand seal with both of his hands .

Suddenly, the room door opened; Ye Shaoyang reflexively hid the book and looked up—it was Xiao Ma .

“Whoops, Little Ye, are you reading p.o.r.n? Why are you so nervous? Let me have a look . ” Xiao Ma raised his eyebrows .

“Shoo! Shoo!” Ye Shaoyang stored the book in his backpack and glared at Xiao Ma, “Why are you here?”

Xiao Ma answered, “Chen Yu has invited me for dinner tonight . Do you want to join us?”

“Chen Yu? Who’s Chen Yu?” The name sounded familiar to Ye Shaoyang, but he could not recall this person offhand .

“He is our dorm roommate . We drank beer together on the first day you moved in . ”

Finally, Ye Shaoyang recalled Chen Yu—the handsome guy . Previously, Xiao Ma said this person had found a job . However, the job was located far away from the university, so he had moved out . Ye Shaoyang only had a meal with him once and had never met him again .

“I’m not close to him . Why would he suddenly invite me to dinner?” Ye Shaoyang wondered out loud .

“He said it is his birthday today . He does not have many friends in the university, so he invited us to have fun tonight . Are you going to come along?”

“Well, let’s go . ” Ye Shaoyang agreed to go along, as he did not have any plans for tonight . He wanted to relax too . Besides, he thought he should show his due respect for Chen Yu’s generosity . After all, Chen Yu had purposely invited him even though they were not close friends . Then, Ye Shaoyang and Xiao Ma took a cab to the restaurant that Chen Yu had booked . Once they entered a private room, Chen Yu warmly welcomed them . After some small talk, Chen Yu took out a bottle of wine . A few ginseng- root-like objects were soaked in the yellowish wine .

“This is a tonic liquor I brought back from a business trip—the liquor of a hundred flowers . It’s made up of five herbs and is perfect for health . Big brother Shaoyang, let’s drink up this today!”

Ye Shaoyang took a sip of the liquor . Although it tasted a bit weird, it was not unpleasant to drink . He did not think much and freely and joyfully drank . The three of them ate and chit-chatted . They talked about work and pretty girls . They made toast after toast to each other . Soon, nine o’clock had pa.s.sed . All of them were drunk . Chen Yu hurriedly left, as he needed to fetch his girlfriend after she finished work .

When Ye Shaoyang and Xiao Ma went back to the apartment, Xiao Ma sighed, “One will change after work . Chen Yu has become so generous now . Previously, he was such a stingy guy . ”

Ye Shaoyang replied, “Then, you should find a job too . ”

Xiao Ma let out a mischievous laugh, “My job is to become your apprentice . I’ll work harder on my Dao craft . No one can stop me . ”

Ye Shaoyang shook his head . He returned to his bedroom to sleep . After an unknown amount of time, Ye Shaoyang woke up with a start because of a sudden gastric pain . He vomited at the edge of his bed . Xiao Ma was playing with his phone . He immediately approached Ye Shaoyang when he heard the sound of vomiting . He patted Ye Shaoyang’s back, “Little Ye, speak up if you can’t drink so much liquor . Will it hurt your stomach?”

After Ye Shaoyang finished vomiting the digested food, he started to vomit mouthfuls of blood .

“Do -do you need to go to a hospital?” Xiao Ma was at a loss . He did not know what to do .

“Quick, pa.s.s me my backpack…” Ye Shaoyang weakly said to Xiao Ma in between moments of vomiting .
