As soon as these words came out, everyone in the Huang family courtyard was stunned.

Everyone was silent.

Someone looked at her as if she were watching something.

Mr. Huang was obviously unhappy.

He walked forward slowly, holding his cane.

"Who is this, Xiao Dai? Is this your friend? Why are you so rude?"

Professor Dai lowered his head, obviously not knowing how to answer.

Ruan Xia did not show any stage fright and looked directly at Mr. Huang.

"What, you don't believe it? Then I'll say it again, your family is going to be in disaster."

She clearly saw that the so-called Taoist priest had no spiritual energy in his body and was not a cultivator at all.

Where is the theory of killing ghosts?

It's nothing more than a scam.

Forget it if he deceives other families. Professor Dai's family has obviously provoked an evil spirit. After all this trouble, if the evil spirit gets involved, everyone in the house will die.

And the Taoist priest was also observing her.

His eyes looked at Ruan Xia without hesitation, as if to say, why are you stealing my lines?

Usually when he goes out to do errands, he likes to start with this sentence.

Charlatans have been tried and tested for so many years. When those unlucky people heard this, they wanted as much as they wanted. He continued to talk nonsense, and soon the other party believed him.

This little girl seems to have less experience than herself, so what's the use of repeating this sentence.

He took the opportunity to cause trouble.

"oh?"

There was also a bit of contempt in his eyes.

"In that case, tell me, why did this disaster happen?"

Ruan Xia made some calculations and realized that the evil spirit was already angry.

"If you only want production money, forget it. At worst, the police will arrest you. But you just pretended that the evil spirit was killed and offended him. Believe it or not, he will come to find you soon."

The fake Taoist priest's face suddenly changed, and the others also looked a little confused.

"Liar? How do you prove it's a liar? We're all really watching."

When the fake Taoist priest saw that Mr. Huang was still on his side, he immediately became angry.

"You yellow-haired girl, don't be rude! Everyone here has seen it. Do you think it's fake?"

Ruan Xia sneered and paced, talking as he walked.

"I've had enough of this little trick of yours since I was a kid. It's just a portrait drawn with alum on white paper in advance, and it will appear when you put it in the water."

"This kind of charlatanism was a martial art that could not be put on the stage in ancient times. Do you think you are quite clever?"

Everyone looked shocked, and Professor Dai also frowned.

"I know, but I didn't expect that he would use it to deceive people."

As soon as Professor Dai spoke, the Huang family looked at the fake Taoist priest cautiously.

When the wall fell and everyone pushed it down, the false Taoist priest saw that he had been exposed, and he immediately grew evil.

"Okay, okay, whether you believe her or not, I will let you see how powerful I am today! My sect cannot be insulted!"

After saying that, the fake Taoist priest rushed over waving his fly whisk.

In the middle of the whisk is a sharp sword, which appears when the switch is pressed.

Ruan Xia didn't move at all, only dodged slightly, and at the same time gave the fake Taoist priest a hard push on the shoulder. The Taoist priest immediately threw him into a dog and gnawed on him.

He got up in disgrace.

The fly whisk fell right at Mo Tingye's feet.

The fake Taoist priest was in pain all over and sat on the ground, covering his shoulders and staring at her.

Mo Tingye parted the whisk's tail hair to reveal the dagger inside, which turned out to be bladed!

The Huang family all huddled together in fear. This Taoist priest really wanted to hurt someone!

Ruan Xia chuckled.

"As a Taoist priest, you have to rely on these mechanisms to defend yourself, but you have to know that ghosts are not afraid of swords."

Only then did Mr. Huang realize that the man sitting on the ground was really incompetent. He did so many weird things and they were all lying!

Mrs. Dai was so angry that she was shaking all over and said while hugging Dai Le tightly.

"Dad, don't talk nonsense to him, call the police! He took 100,000 from our family, which is enough to file a fraud case!"

Mr. Huang has been in business for many years and hates being deceived by villains.

Without saying a word, he turned on the phone, pressed speakerphone, and dialed two numbers before the call was connected.

Then there was the sound of whistling wind, and everyone listened nervously.

"You dare to tease me, you are seeking death!"

It was a rich baritone, and his voice seemed to be floating in from far away.

Mr. Huang was so frightened that he threw his phone away.

"There's a ghost! There's a ghost!"

Accompanied by several screams, the scene fell into extreme chaos!

At this moment, all the lights that were originally on in the yard flickered on and off. After a few seconds, all the lights went out.

More screams erupted.

Ruan Xia stood there and shouted loudly.

"Don't panic, turn on the flashlight on your phone!"

A light source is the fastest way to dispel fear.

"Listen to Master, don't panic!"

Several beams of light came on, and the originally panicked people immediately calmed down.

"Is everyone okay?"

Professor Dai looked around. Fortunately, everyone was there and no one was injured.

No near misses.

By this time the housekeeper had replaced the burned fuse and all the lights were back on.

Everyone let out a breath.

Mr. Huang nodded while looking at everyone.

"As long as it's okay, it'll be okay."

"Everyone is here, everyone is here."

Ruan Xia looked around coldly.

"No, the number of people is wrong."

Ruan Xia looked around again, "Look at the people around you, have you noticed anything?"

Everyone looked at each other, and someone said, "I didn't find anything."

Mr. Huang walked straight towards her.

"Girl, oh no, master, you have to say it directly."

Ruan Xia looked at him cautiously.

"Old man, haven't you noticed that there is an extra person between us?"

A kind of silent terror spread around. Everyone looked at themselves cautiously and then at the people around them. All they saw was the fear in each other's eyes.

In addition to family members, the Huang family also had several relatives present, plus the housekeeper and servants who came out, standing together.

Ruan Xia looked around and stopped at Mr. Huang.

"Old man, please tell me how many people are here today."

Mr. Huang looked around and said, "We have five daughters, sons-in-law and grandchildren, three relatives, and six servants at home, a total of fourteen people."

His eyes fell on Ruan Xia.

Counting the two newcomers, there are sixteen people.

"Sixteen, maybe."

Ruan Xia crossed his arms over his chest and shook his head.

"No, seventeen people."

"There are seventeen of us here now."

Everyone looked frightened.

"What?"

Everyone began to count heads in unison, but no matter how they counted, they couldn't get it right.

"It must be sixteen."

"No, it's seventeen."

"Huh? How could I count to fifteen?"

Everyone became more anxious as they counted, and finally looked at Ruan Xia in unison.

"Master, don't be so pretentious, just tell me directly. I'm going to be scared out of my mind."

Ruan Xia only knew two people here. She started from the left and observed everyone's expressions as she walked.

Without exception, everyone in the Huang family was very nervous. Dai Le even buried his head in his mother's arms and did not dare to look at her.

Some people lowered their heads after being stared at by her, not daring to look at each other at all.

After walking around like this, Ruan Xia stood in the middle and pointed at a person in the corner.

"Who knows him?"
