Cai Cheng, the military commander, was extremely steady. The moment he discovered the ghost, he did not charge forward enthusiastically, but instead called on his comrades.
Zhou Yuan took the psychic liquid, dripped a drop into his eyes, then drew his bow and fired three arrows in a flash.
"Swoosh, whoosh, whoosh."
"Brother Cai, it won't work. Bows and arrows can't nail them."
Seeing that Plan B had been implemented, the Painted Skin Butler standing by quickly spoke up to give a reminder.
"Master, I heard that the blood of the evil spirit can kill evil spirits."
Upon hearing this, Cai Cheng cut his palm, covered the blade with blood, and swung the sword to attack.
Several ghosts dodged as if they had encountered something terrible.
But even so, they were unwilling to give up that perfect skin and kept circling around Zhang Manning's bed, seriously restricting Cai Cheng's performance.
"There's also this theory. I'll give it a try."
Zhou Yuan cut his arm, rubbed his palm with the blood, turning it red, then secretly pinched the Three Talents Seal and walked forward.
Since he did not take the blue drug, there was no blood flame special effect on his palms, and the blood clotting caused by the seal was also covered up by the blood on his hands.
Seeing Zhou Yuan approaching, the three 【Level 5 Yin Spirits】 continued to pretend and secretly provoked him.
【Level 15 Painted Skin Manning】 lying on the bed began to panic. It was not an ignorant ghost, it knew Zhou Yuan's battle record.
It was very worried about the young warrior and gave him a seal without saying a word.
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. Jing'an City's Zhou Yuan doesn't know my background. He should protect me and won't hurt me.
My skin is of the highest quality after some repairs. As long as he is still a human being, he will not dislike this charming and adorable figure."
"Brother, help me!"
Cai Cheng's shout interrupted the Painted Skin Manning's self-consolation and also made the three 【Level 5 Yin Spirits】 face a real threat.
The blood-stained red palm seemed to be sweeping with a knife, but in fact it was forming a seal to strike again.
"ah···"
It doesn't have the Three Elements Seal with the blue bar, nor the soul-devouring blood flame, but other than that it's still powerful.
The Yin spirit that was hit by Zhou Yuan's Three Talents Seal had its health bar instantly reduced to one third, and screamed in pain.
"Run, this guy has real skills."
The three evil spirits didn't dare to act around the bed anymore, nor did they dare to provoke the big ghost on the bed. They shouted and tried to escape.
The play has actually ended at this point. Next, the Painted Skin Manning suddenly wakes up, is attracted by the young man's bravery, and falls in love with him.
But Zhou Yuan is a person who doesn't understand romance and doesn't play by the rules.
"Don't leave, or I'll stab you again."
At this moment, ordinary people in Zhang's house admired Zhou Yuan's courage very much, but the painted skins secretly thought it was not good.
Sure enough, Zhou Yuan was extremely fast. In the blink of an eye, he rushed out of Painted Skin Manning's boudoir.
When Painted Skin Manning opened his eyes as promised, there was no young warrior there, but a group of burly soldiers, including Cai Cheng.
"Thank you so much, parents, for rescuing me."
"Good boy, lie down quickly. Has the ghost left? The fact that you are okay is the greatest blessing for our family."
"Father, although the ghost has left, I'm afraid it will come back. I am heartbroken and terrified by this disaster. I hope you have a brave man to protect me."
Although Zhou Yuanren is gone, the play of Painted Skin Manning still has to be performed.
After hearing these words, even Cai Cheng felt a little uneasy, not to mention the other personal guards.
But Mr. Zhang was a man of great character. Not only did he understand his daughter's implication, he also instantly ruled out Cai Cheng and his personal soldiers.
"My son, Dad has figured it out. No matter how good a family is, safety is more important.
That Jing'an captain, Zhou Yuan, is a brave warrior who dares to fight against vengeful ghosts. Father will talk to him later and ask him to stay and protect us for a while."
Ping-pang-clang, the hearts of all the big men were broken. This gentle girl was bound to ignite a flame in the hands of Zhou Yuan, that hot-blooded boy.
Cai Cheng's heart also trembled. Oh no, that kid got lucky. What a lucky guy.
Although there was a little accident in the first step of watching the love scene of Painted Skin in the courtyard, I was very relieved that the general direction was correct.
But the other three 【Level 5 Yin Spirits】 could not be relieved, or rather, they could not gather together.
After Zhou Yuan chased out of the yard, he used a bottle of Yuzhen Powder to activate the blue bar, avoiding the sight of several servants and killing three evil spirits.
This brutal behavior frightened the Painted Skin hidden among the servants.
"Uncle Zhou Du, my master invites you to the main hall to discuss matters."
The Painted Skin Butler suppressed his fear and stepped forward to ask the vicious man to move to another courtyard.
In fact, he did not approve of today's play. Although using the theory of vengeful ghosts would make things easier, it would also bring certain disasters.
But the plan had already been made, and it had no choice but to follow it. It could only try its best to patch it up to prevent Zhou Yuan from finding out.
"Butler, why is your house haunted? What's the reason? If the root cause is not removed, I'm afraid the resentful spirits will linger."
In response to Zhou Yuan's question, the Painted Skin Butler just smiled stiffly, indicating that servants should not discuss the master's affairs.
"Uncle Zhou Du, please come this way."
When Zhou Yuan returned to the main hall, the first thing he saw was the 【Level 15 Painted Skin Manning】 who was pretending to be weak.
"My dear nephew Zhou, my daughter was haunted by a vengeful ghost and nearly died. Fortunately, my son-in-law Cai Cheng and I came to her aid.
I should have given you a generous gift to express my gratitude, but my son Manning was frightened by the vengeful ghost and was unable to sleep.
Could you please ask my nephew Zhou to stay and look after my daughter for a few days to ensure her safety?"
"Me? Why not the military commander? He has the spiritual fluid and is a relative of the mansion, so he is much more suitable than an outsider like me."
The true intention of the Painted Skins is now revealed. I don’t know what the Painted Skins are planning. They actually want Zhou Yuan and 【Level 15 Painted Skin Manning】 to live together. Are they trying to raise a Gu?
"My dear nephew, you should know that when a girl grows up, she should be careful of her relatives. Although Cheng'er is a relative of my family, it is not appropriate for her to be with her unmarried wife and sister."
"If Cai Cheng has to be guarded against, then I'm even less suitable. Master Zhang, please find another way."
"You are such an ignorant young man. You are an official and my family is big, so we are a perfect match.
After this disaster, I no longer ask for anything else, I just hope my children are healthy.
You are unmarried, and my daughter is unmarried. You are extremely brave, and my daughter is extremely beautiful. If we can support each other, it will be a wonderful story. "
"Dad, don't say anymore."
An unnatural blush suddenly appeared on the pale cheeks of Painted Skin Manning, making her look shy, timid, and charming.
It turned its head to look at Zhou Yuan, and for some reason it suddenly burst into tears.
"Manning wants to live, Langjun, save me."
This sad and desolate lament, coupled with the tearful and expectant expression, broke the hearts of everyone present.
Only Zhou Yuan was as unmoved as a stone, even frowning as if he had encountered some difficulty.
"My dear nephew, why are you so cruel? My daughter is only fifteen years old now. How could she be killed for no reason at such a beautiful age?
If you have any difficulties, please tell me. If you really don't want to, I, Zhang, will definitely not force you."
"Yuan, thank you for your kindness, Master Zhang, but I have some military commitments, so I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to stay in the city and look after your daughter."
Zhou Yuan's answer left Cai Cheng dumbfounded, and he couldn't help but murmur in his heart.
Zhou Yuan must be stupid. There are only a few women as beautiful as Manning in the entire Jing'an County. Why would he refuse?
Could it be that he is so determined to participate in the spiritual awakening assessment? Indeed, his strength is not without reason, and this belief is worthy of his talent.
"My dear, you have such a cruel heart. Can Manning still wait for you?"
