Chapter 109

The Lian family is a family of witch doctors, and is also one of the Six Families. But unlike the other families, the Lian family is not involved in world affairs and is the most low-key of the Six.

Jiang Luo had also met the Lian family, the great disciple of the Witch Doctor school, Lian Xue, a close friend of Zhuo Zhongqiu.

Tian Shifus car was driven deep into the forest by Shen Ruma, and in addition to Jiang Luo and Feng Li, the owner of the funeral parlour was also in the car.

This time the journey was much longer, and it was only in the afternoon, as the sun was setting and the sky was getting dark, that they arrived at the Lian family home, built deep in the mountains.

Jiang Luo had regained his composure by this time.

No other reason, because even the funeral shop owner said that they did not know the details of the curse of the Chi family, and that the curse of the Chi familys direct descendants not living to the age of 30 was just a matter of speculation.

And Jiang Luo remembered something important, a secret that Chi You had told him.

Chi You says he carries a curse on his body, a curse that every full Chi family has, which restricts a full Chi family from harming a side Chi family.

The curse was to restrict the first line from harming the second line, not the first line of the Chi family would not live to be 30 years old.

Jiang Luo still trusts Chi You with this secret. It would be boring if a secret that was revealed in a losing encounter was not true.

If the curse on the first line of the Chi family is not the curse of certain death at the age of thirty, then the meaning of the three moles is intriguing. The end of the Ikari family lineage dying before the age of thirty is also all the more intriguing.

Jiang Luo, with his knowledge of Chi You, felt that the odds were that he was not under the curse of dying at thirty. But he was also prepared for the worst.

If it is true that he will die before he turns thirty, Jiang Luo will have to bring Chi You out and ask him all about the curse. If the curse can be lifted before he turns 30, he will have to follow Chi Yous path.

Death broke Chi You free and made him stronger. If only he could be like Chi You

Jiang Luos eyes are dark as he looks out of the window with a twinkle in his eye.

If I could only be as strong as him

His heart beat slightly faster.

When they arrived at the Lian family, they got out of the car. The people of the Lian family had long since learned of the arrival of the Heavenly Masters, and a disciple stood guard at the door and led them towards the hall.

The ancestral home of the Lian family is like a southern garden, with a long flowing stream, rockery and green bamboo, and even in late autumn, everywhere is lush and green, with the grasses and flowers arranged in a dense and extremely beautiful manner.

Jiang Luo was in a better mood as they walked around such a place. Soon, they met the Lian family.

The elders of the Lian family are now in the back of the mountain, recuperating, and only the younger members of the family are entertaining guests. The younger members of the Lian family who were at the ancestral home all rushed over, led by Lian Xue, who humbly greeted Feng Li.

Feng Li nodded slightly and asked, Where is Master Weihe Dao?

The Taoist Master is in retreat in the back of the mountain, Lian Xue smiled softly, speaking on behalf of the juniors, and will be out in seven more days.

Feng Li nodded and said, Let me know when Daoist Master Weihe comes out of the gate.

Lian Xue respectfully obliges.

The juniors behind Lian Xue were all eighteen or nineteen years old, the very age of vivacity. They peeked at the people the Master of Heaven had brought with him, their curious eyes sweeping over Jiang Luo many times.

Jiang Luo is lightly watched by them.

The funeral shop owner whispered beside Jiang Luo, Daoist Master Weihe is an able researcher of curses, so in his absence, dont tell anyone about the curse on you for the time being.

Jiang Luo was in a good mood and was not in a hurry to curse, he nodded.

Lian Xue asked, Is the Master of Heaven here?

Feng Li turns around and gestures for Jiang Luo to come forward.

Jiang Luo walked over and stood at Feng Lis side. Feng Li said, My disciple had the misfortune to have intercourse with an evil spirit, so look at his body and cleanse it from the defilement and do not let the spirit be tainted by the ghostly energy.

As expected, Feng Li did not say anything about a curse.

But he just spilled the beans about Jiang Luo rolling with the evil spirit, and the corners of Jiang Luos eyes twitched in conviction.

But none of the younger members of the Lian family showed any strange expressions, just as ordinary doctors do when they see a patient, the Lian family asked questions carefully, When did yin and yang meet? How many times did you have intercourse? And what discomfort did you have?

Feng Lis mouth pursed coldly and stiffly as he looked back at Jiang Luo.

Jiang Luos eyelashes drooped and a light sadness appeared on his face, Can I speak alone?

Lian Xue smiled and said, Of course, please follow me.

Jiang Luo followed her to the inner room, where Lian Xue asked her questions and then took Jiang Luos pulse. Her brow furrowed and after a long time she got up and brought a bowl of water for Jiang Luo to dip his left middle finger in.

The clear water soon became murky and Lian Xue was shocked, This ghost is so evil!

Jiang Luo looked down and saw that the bowl of water had gradually turned a pure black colour as they stared at it. It was so black that it seemed to absorb light, as if the ink had melted away, and it was eerie.

Lian Xue stood up so abruptly that chairs tripped over her, but she didnt even notice. Jiang Luo heard her mutter, I have never seen such

There was some panic and disbelief on her face for a moment, then she slowly composed herself again and asked Jiang Luo to pour out the black water after lifting her hand, Its all right, lets go out.

Lian Xue led him back to Feng Li. Feng Li was sitting in the lobby when he raised his head at the sound and looked towards them.

Feng Li, as the other main character in the original book, is naturally not bad looking. But apart from his handsome face and deep family roots, his own character is also interesting.

Seemingly emotionless, he is deeply involved in the mundane world. He seems to be deeply involved in the world, but he seems to care nothing about it.

Lian Xue could not help but feel nervous, even if she was not one of the Heavenly Masters disciples, when the pale look was cast. She steadied herself and stepped forward with a light smile, as if facing her own master, Master Tian, it would be best for Brother Jiang Luo to stay with us for a month to meditate and recuperate.

The water of the Tianbi Pond of the Lian Family can wash away the impurity that Brother Jiang Luo has been contaminated with, Lian Xue said, and after Brother has been cleansed with the water of the Tianbi Pond for one month, even if his Yuan Yang has been emitted and he has intercourse with evil spirits, it will not have much effect on the future.

Then stay here, Feng Li said after a long moment of contemplation, and when your Master Weihe comes out, take him to meet Jiang Luo.

Lian Xue smiled and said, Yes.

There was one more thing that Lian Xue thought about and did not tell Feng Li because she was afraid that Jiang Luo would be sad and scared.

The evil spirit has left a strong evil thought on Jiang Luos body, so Im afraid that its not enough to have sex with him once.

But with the Daoist Master and the holy water in the house, the Lian family is not afraid of ghosts and spirits, so it doesnt matter whether they talk about it or not.

Feng Li was ready to leave without staying with the others. Shen Ruma asked thoughtfully, Brother, I see you cant go back to school, which dormitory are you staying in? Ill help you pack your things and bring them to you.

Lian Xue smiled, Whats the need for such trouble? Zhong Qiu often comes to play with me during the holidays, so let Brother Jiang Luo just tell Zhong Qiu.

Jiang Luo also said, Yes, let Zhong Qiu come, so that you dont have to make a trip for nothing.

Shen Ruma said no more, waved to them and led the way out to the car.

As the younger members of the Lian family were saying their goodbyes to Feng Li, Jiang Luo took the opportunity to walk up to the funeral shop owner and said lightly, Lao Ji.

The funeral shop owner glared at him, No big deal.

Jiang Luo snickered, Some people tell lies without a word, too.

The funeral shop owner gave a look of dismay.

But in his heart he was actually very happy that Ji Harrier liked Jiang Luos personality. He remembered Jiang Luo after he chose to kill himself to activate the Yin Yang Ring, and more than once exclaimed in front of Dean Xu how this boy had been taken away by Feng Li as his disciple.

But he has always been able to hide things on his face, and he has kept many things inside, so even if he felt happy, he did not show it.

Jiang Luo did not care whether he was happy or unhappy, and continued in a four-way manner, Is your curse of not living past the age of thirty personally admitted by the first line of the Chi family, or is it your own guess.

The funeral shop owner said, Of course it was a crowd presumption.

A subtle smile flashed in Jiang Luos eyes as he relaxed and said slowly, Then why would anyone want to marry into the Chi family when they know they wont live to be thirty?

As soon as you marry in, you can become the main mother of the Chi family and give birth to extremely gifted children as heirs, some wont, but of course some will, the funeral shop owner said coldly, The Chi family gives enough benefits to enjoy a few years of glory and prosperity, there will always be people who are not afraid to die.

Jiang Luo narrowed his eyes, Lao Ji, I wont ask why you lied in front of my master. But you will tell me why you also have a Yuan Tianzhu.

This is strange, there are only four Yuan Tianzhu, the first place winner of the national competition will have one Yuan Tianzhu, and the Qi family also has one Yuan Tianzhu. The owner of the funeral parlour is a nobody, just a small shop owner, why does he have a Yuan Tianzhu too?

And when Yuan Tianzhu was lost, he didnt react much, just shooed them away and closed the door.

The undertaker glanced at him and headed out the door, Well talk later.

This is clearly a pretext, and should be feared that Jiang Luo will catch him asking further questions. The funeral shop owner takes a few quick steps to Feng Lis side and leisurely exits Lians house.

After seeing them off, Lian Xue introduced his siblings to Jiang Luo and led him to his room, Brothers room is near the back of the hill, where we have peace and quiet. It takes a few minutes to walk to where everyone lives, and we dont disturb each other. Brother can cultivate your body here at ease, and in a months time, even if you are not a child, it will have no effect except for certain harsh spells that must be maintained.

Jiang Luo pondered for a moment, Is that bowl of water cloudy because something is wrong with my body?

Lian Xue shook his head unexpectedly, Thats the strange point for me Its obvious that you are an evil spirit, but there is no damage to your body. Its just that evil spirits are too tainted, which will make your body and mind no longer clean.

Jiang Luo laughed, How is that considered clean?

Abandon all desires, spend your days in peace, and nurture your body and mind. One should not crave for food and drink, and one should not crave for human desires, or else the poison will last for a long time and defile everything from the spiritual body to the physical body.

Jiang Luo is silent.

He and the Lien family are at complete extremes of thought.

Whats the point of living without any desire? Jiang Luo loves excitement and anything that arouses his desire, except for Chi You, the dog.

He didnt like the idea of being clean without desire, but he didnt say so.

Jiang Luo felt that the bowl of water had become so dark because of his own evil thoughts.
