Xiao Lan took a step forward and pulled off the beard the youth had stuck to his face.

"Ouch!"

The young man immediately cried out in pain and quickly covered his face with his hand.

Xiao Lan ruthlessly gripped the beard in her hands. She thought about how many years it was that she, Xiao Lan, hadn't been tricked and had not been played by anyone. Today, she could be considered to have found it all.

She was still anxiously waiting to put it back on, her face still full of excitement and fantasies.

As for the result, what was she supposed to wear? She couldn't even think of passing through the wall!

People said that the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. Now, she had truly experienced it.

Xiao Lan looked fiercely at the youth. A swindler, a swindler!

Xiao Lan ruthlessly threw the fake moustache onto the ground and casually grabbed the youth from before. He then pulled out a variety of peach wood swords and ruthlessly whipped the youth.

"I let you lie, I let you lie!"

The youth immediately cried out in pain, "Big sister, stop it! I won't dare to do it again. I'm just making a living. Big sister, it hurts, big sister …"

In the courtyard, Xiao Lan was lashing out while chasing the young man.

Because they had retreated a little far, they could not hear clearly what was happening. They could only hear the faint sounds of someone calling for help.

"Did you hear anything?"

The old wet nurse said solemnly, "They've started a fight. They're probably trying to tame the evil spirit. The evil spirit should be powerful. I could even hear the painful cries of the Taoist."

The younger servant girl beside her muttered, "Momo, could it be that the Taoist is being beaten?"

Once she said that, she glared at the young maid and said, "Nonsense, this Taoist Nameless is the most famous Taoist in the capital."

The wet nurse stared back at the young maid in a flustered manner.

"What do you know at such a young age? Just stay put."

"Yes …" The young maid immediately lowered her head and stood quietly at the side. However, when she heard the cry for help, she couldn't help but wonder if it was really the Daoist …

At this moment, the youth within the courtyard was truly frightened by Xiao Lan's beating, and didn't even dare to flee. He grabbed onto Xiao Lan's thigh as he pleaded with tears in his eyes.

"Sister, please be lenient. I, your little brother, am really doing this for a living. Sister, I was wrong. Please forgive me for a bit, okay?"

Xiao Lan looked at the youth that tightly embraced her leg, then clenched the peach wood sword in her hand again and again.

In the end, he fiercely threw away the peach wood sword and kicked the youth who was hugging her to the side. "Let go!"

The youth saw that Xiao Lan had finally stopped and his entire body was sprawled on the ground.

Oh my god, it hurts like hell. Didn't they say all the young ladies in the officials' families are gentle and refined? Why is this guy even more ferocious than a female tiger? That actions just now really made me want to eat him.

The youth began to carefully lie motionless on the ground. After a long while, when he saw that Xiao Lan made no sound at all, he couldn't help but secretly glance at Xiao Lan. He saw that Xiao Lan still had an angry face, but didn't look at him.

The young man couldn't help but frown his delicate and pretty eyebrows. In the end, this big sister was truly strange. She was a person who was expelled from evil, so she should be happy if she knew that he was fake. Why was she so angry?

At this moment, Xiao Lan's eyes were filled with gloom. People all said not to be too stubborn about a particular matter. If one was too persistent, they would go insane.

She must be crazy to believe such a clumsy trick.

After a long time, Xiao Lan turned around and looked at the youth with a body covered in red marks. He forced himself to calm down and ordered with a cold voice.

"Come here, I have something to ask you."

Seeing that Xiao Lan had spoken, how could the youth dare to hesitate? Even though his entire body was in pain, he walked step by step towards her.

"Big sister, feel free to ask if you have anything to say."

Xiao Lan looked at the complete set of items the youth had. These items were not things a child like him could obtain.

"Where did you get all this stuff?"

The youth forcefully pursed his lips, and replied shyly a moment later.

"To tell you the truth, sister, I stole these things from master. Recently, Master went on a long trip, and the servants of the Wei family went to the temple to get Master to drive away some evil things. They really gave me a lot of fees, so I immediately pretended that Master came here."

Xiao Lan's eyes narrowed. Master?

"That is to say, your master is the nameless one, and he is the one who exorcises evil?"

The youth quickly nodded with a face full of pride. "Yes, Master's spell is indeed powerful, but …" Master has been doing very little in recent years, and has been travelling a bit more. "

Xiao Lan looked thoughtfully at the youth. "What sort of evil things did your master drive in the past?"

The youth thought for a moment, "In the end, what kind of evil thing is it that I can't see? Those who are infected with the evil thing all go insane. The moment I saw elder sister, I knew that elder sister wasn't some evil thing. She was just putting on an act here."

"Am I not an evil creature?" Xiao Lan asked in a strange voice.

The youth firmly shook his head, "Big sister is naturally not an evil being. It's normal for me to be like this."

Normal?

How was she normal!

It was just that they were too stupid to see clearly.

Xiao Lan reached out and casually pulled out a few pieces of talisman paper from the table, then carefully examined them from beginning to end.

He had originally thought that she would have a shortcut when she returned, but now it seemed that it was all empty.

"You can leave." Xiao Lan's voice contained a sense of loneliness.

When the youth heard this, he was stunned, "Elder sister, you're letting me go?"

Xiao Lan nodded. "Yes, but I have something to ask of you."

Hm?

Asking him? So polite, the youth suddenly smiled, "Elder sister, please speak."

Xiao Lan looked at the youth. "Can you tell me when your Master returns? I want to see him."

The young man hesitated for a few seconds and then nodded firmly, "Alright. When my master returns, I will tell my sister. My sister's name is Wu Yun, and Master said that whether or not I can comprehend the righteous path is all fate."

Xiao Lan's eyes were startled. All of them were fate?

But karma is also divided into good karma and bad karma …

The youth started to clean up the messy items on the ground. Xiao Lan put the few pieces of talisman paper he pulled out into his sleeve. "Wu Yun, I'll leave some of these talisman paper behind."

"Big sister, just stay behind."

Xiao Lan picked up the fake moustache that was thrown to the ground not far away and passed it over to Enlightenment Fate.

"Here, take it with you. After you go out, ask the people from the house of the Marquis for a different reward."

Wu Yun looked at Xiao Lan with slight disbelief. "Big Sister, you still want me to get the remuneration?"

Xiao Lan placed the fake beard into Wu Yun's hands. "You deserved it."

Didn't she beat him up? She still had to pay for the medical fees.

Wu Yun smiled brightly. "Elder sister, you're a good person."

Xiao Lan was stunned. A good person?

Does anyone still call her a good person today?

"Comprehension, there are no absolute villains in this world, nor are there any absolute good people."
