I use the fox fairy to suppress all ghosts

Chapter 4210 Snake wrapped around the waist

I've noticed that every time I come to Tang Shangning's place, I never get anything out of it. This time, I lost two bottles of good wine and they even arranged work for me for the next time. The worst part is that there's no extra money involved. It's really frustrating.

Fortunately, they didn't assign me any work this time, so I'm not at too much of a disadvantage.

Frustrated, I left the Special Investigation Team headquarters and returned home. In my spare time, I studied the methods of setting up magic arrays that Li Banxian had just taught me, and also practiced the skill of drawing talismans in the void that Old Li had taught me.

Several days passed in the blink of an eye.

Recently, the people of Yiguandao seem to have quieted down a lot. Ever since they ambushed the Taoist Academy at the foot of Maoshan Sect, they haven't made any big moves, and there's been no news about the Nine Cauldrons.

I'm still a little worried that Guan Dao might quietly take away the Nine Provinces Cauldron.

I think that after Bai Mile's clone was killed by Ge Yu and Wu Jiuyin last time, it was probably seriously injured. Even if it was a clone, it must have caused damage to Bai Mile's main body. At this time, Bai Mile may be recuperating and possibly plotting a big conspiracy.

The matter of Bai Mile is not something I can consider. I should think about how to keep the money I have first.

I've saved up another small fortune, and whenever I have money, word of it will quickly leak out.

Who knows when, Old Li will come over, drawn by the smell.

I didn't manage to swindle many talismans from Tang Shangning, so I took out 50 million to buy some invisibility talismans and gold talismans to keep on my person for emergencies.

These things can be easily obtained from Sister Hua without much effort.

Business has been tough lately, the overall economic climate isn't great, and many big bosses in Yanbei don't really care about feng shui anymore. Relying on shady dealings isn't a sustainable solution.

I then asked Uncle Hu to contact some old clients to see if he could introduce me to some business, since feng shui is my main job and I can't neglect it.

Unexpectedly, this approach actually had some effect. A big boss's company was opening, and he asked me to go to the site. He gave me a commission of 300,000 yuan, so I did a simple feng shui layout for him to earn some hard-earned money.

So, after staying in Yanbei for about a week, one afternoon, as I was studying the feng shui formation that Li Banxian had taught me, Zhang Qingan suddenly called me.

I thought Zhang Qing'an was bored at home and wanted to ask me if I had any big jobs lately.

As soon as the call connected, I said with a smile, "Senior Zhang, I've been feeling rather bored lately. There haven't been any big business opportunities, and even the Special Investigations Team hasn't asked me to do anything. What do you need me for?"

Before I could finish speaking, Zhang Qing'an said in a panic, "Xiao Jie, my eldest grandson and my son are both sick. They have many red spots on their waists, like snakes wrapped around their bodies, and they are spreading. Their condition is getting worse and worse, and they look like they are not going to live."

"Oh my god, how could this happen? Don't you have a medicine packet made from the leaves of the 'Zhaoyaomu' tree? That stuff can bring the dead back to life. Didn't you try giving them some or applying some to their bodies?" I said quickly.

“I’ve tried it, and it works, but the next day my body started to develop red spots like snakes coiling around my waist, and my condition has worsened. I think I might have been messed with by someone. I’ve also been feeling very unwell lately, weak and listless. Can you come and take a look at me…” Zhang Qing’an said in a very panicked tone.

When I heard Zhang Qing'an say that, I was slightly taken aback. In recent years, Zhang Qing'an had done a lot of big jobs with us, and he must have made enemies with a lot of people.

Since we are all safe, and Little Fatty and I are in Yanbei, naturally no one dares to touch us.

The slovenly Taoist priest and Chilang were both at the Maoshan Sect, so no one dared to touch them anymore.

Yuan Kong's master was once retaliated against by Liu Hao and is now dead. It seems that the most unsafe person now is Zhang Qing'an, who lives in a small village with his whole family. If the people who are dealing with him are not confident in killing Zhang Qing'an, they will probably do it in secret.

Thinking about this, I suddenly became a little unsettled.

"Senior Zhang, please wait here. Little Fatty and I will go over and take a look right now."

"Please come quickly, I'm so panicked. My grandson can't even talk yet. If he dies, it'll kill me!" Zhang Qing'an's voice was already trembling with tears.

Hearing him say that made me feel terrible. I shouldn't have let him come with us to wander the world. He was actually doing quite well in the village, with no one bothering him. But after he came with us, he made too many enemies, to the point that now, I can't even imagine who would lay a hand on him.

However, this also reminded me that once this matter is resolved, we must find a safe place for Zhang Qing'an's family, either to Maoshan Sect or to Yanbei.

With the money Zhang Qing'an has, he could easily buy a courtyard house here.

Now is not the time to think about these things. I called out to Little Fatty and told him to hurry up and book tickets to visit Elder Zhang's house.

Little Fatty asked me what was wrong, but I wasn't in the mood to explain. I told him I'd find out when I got there.

Fortunately, Zhang Qing'an's home is not far from Yanbei; it only takes a few hours to drive there.

Little Fatty and I set off immediately, and arrived at Zhang Qingan's village around four or five in the afternoon.

As soon as I arrived in the village, I called Zhang Qing'an because I had forgotten where he lived in the village.

“Our family owns a newly built villa in the middle of the village. It’s easy to find. Otherwise, I’ll come pick you up,” Zhang Qing’an said anxiously.

"No need, I'll be there soon. You wait at home." I called to Little Fatty and glanced around the village. Soon I saw the small villa that Zhang Qing'an had mentioned. Zhang Qing'an was rich now and had built the most impressive three-story villa in the village. It looked quite grand.

When Little Fatty and I got close to that little villa, we saw Zhang Qing'an waiting for us at the door.

I took a closer look at Zhang Qing'an and saw that his face was a little pale and he seemed a bit listless.

"Comrade Zhang, even someone as powerful as you fell victim to this?" I walked towards him.

“Xiao Jie, I suspect there’s something wrong with our family’s feng shui, but I don’t know anything about this, so I had to call you over. Go check on my grandson and son; they look like they’re about to die.” Zhang Qing’an grabbed my arm and pulled me into the yard.

As soon as I entered the courtyard, I smelled a foul, fishy odor emanating from the house.
