Calling back Shi Shaojian, Shi Jian looked Ye Xuan up and down with a ruthless look again. Then, a stiff smile appeared on his face, and he said to Ye Xuan with a fake smile, "My unworthy disciple was indeed too rash just now. My friend, you are right. I am Shi Jian, the chief disciple of the Maoshan Sect. May I know who your master is …"
"My surname is Ye, and my first name is Xuan. I belong to no sect, and am just an unaffiliated cultivator in the Jianghu!" Seeing Shi Jian's expression, Ye Xuan pursed his lips and said with a cold smile.
"So it's you, Fellow Ye!" Hearing that Ye Xuan belonged to no sect, Shi Jian's eyes flashed with anger. He cupped his hands at Ye Xuan, and then said to his fellow disciples who had stood up because of what had just happened, "Junior Brothers, it was all a misunderstanding. Please sit down!"
Everyone sat down again, except for Lin Fengjiao and her disciple, who stood in the middle because their seats were taken by Shi Jian.
After sitting down, Shi Jian looked at Lin Fengjiao and said, "Junior Brother Lin, since this matter was caused by your two disciples, as their Master, you should take responsibility for it. Did you ask us to help you shoulder this burden by asking us to come here today?"
"Eldest Senior Brother, I have already discussed with the other disciples. We are going to use the Eight Trigrams Formation to subdue these ghosts." Lin Fengjiao's eyes flashed as she said.
"Since you have already discussed it, why did you invite me here?" Hearing Lin Fengjiao's words, Shi Jian was displeased. As the Eldest Senior Brother, they had already discussed it before he arrived. Were they looking down on him as the Eldest Senior Brother?
Lin Fengjiao had no choice but to ask, "What do you think, Eldest Senior Brother?"
In fact, these people were all from the same sect. Even though Shi Jian was the Eldest Senior Brother, he had basically learned nothing different from them except for the Rushing Lightning Fist and the Great Wooden Stake Technique. After thinking for a while, he still could not think of a better idea, so he nodded and said, "Okay, the Eight Trigrams Formation is fine. But the ghosts can't run into the formation by themselves. Who will lead them into the formation?"
Hearing this, no one dared to say anything.
Why? Because these days were the Ghost Festival, the time of the year when the Yin Qi was the heaviest. If they wanted to lead the ghosts, it was impossible for the Sect Masters to do it. They were all powerful cultivators, and once they went out, the ghosts would run away as soon as they saw them. Therefore, only their disciples could go.
As mentioned before, these days were the heaviest times of the year, which was quite beneficial to lone souls and wild ghosts. Moreover, there were not many people who would lead the ghosts. In this way, it could be assumed that the person who led the ghosts would be in great danger. If he was not careful, he might even be swallowed by thousands of ghosts before he could lead the ghosts. No one wanted to let their disciples die for nothing.
Seeing that no one dared to say anything, Shi Shaojian, who was standing behind Shi Jian, wanted to save some face that he had lost before. He stood up and said, "Since no one dares to go, as the Eldest Senior Brother, I will do my duty. I think you can leave this task to me."
"Taoist Priest Shi's disciple is really brave. It seems that I misunderstood just now. Your disciple is so considerate of his fellow disciples. Congratulations!" Seeing Shi Shaojian running out, Ye Xuan suddenly said with a smile.
"That's great, that's great!" Wen Cai and Qiu Sheng had thought that the task would fall to them. They did not expect Shi Shaojian to step up himself. Naturally, they cheered happily.
"Huh?!" Shi Jian turned his head and looked at Shi Shaojian with dissatisfaction. He then looked at Ye Xuan and Lin Fengjiao with a smile. "I'm naturally happy that my disciple is the first to step up at a time like this. This proves that my years of teaching have not been in vain. He deserves to be the next chief disciple of the Maoshan Sect. However, since this matter was caused by someone, as a disciple of the Maoshan Sect, it's best to take responsibility for it alone. That way, the name of the Maoshan Sect will not be tarnished! "
"It's better to be realistic!" Seeing that Shi Jian had spoken, if his two disciples still did not step up, the other disciples present would probably be displeased. They were the ones who caused the trouble, and they were here to clean up after them. They were the ones who took the risk, and they were the ones who hid in the corner. How could there be such a good deal in this world?
"Yes, Master!" Hearing Lin Fengjiao's words, Wen Cai and Qiu Sheng had no choice but to accept their fate.
"Alright, if that's the case, let's get ready. Brothers, come with me to find a place to set up the formation. We'll take care of these ghosts at night. Otherwise, the longer we drag this out, the worse the situation will be for us." Seeing that the discussion was over, Shi Jian was a decisive person, so he stood up and gave the order.
"Yes, Eldest Brother!" The others stood up as well, then began to lead their disciples out of Lin Fengjiao's house to find a place to set up the formation.
"Junior Brother Lin, with so many brothers helping out, please make sure nothing happens to your disciple!" Shi Jian said to Lin Fengjiao in a strange tone, then left the Lin Mansion with Shi Shaojian.
On the other hand, Shi Shaojian wanted to help out in this matter, but he had never been on good terms with Lin Fengjiao in the sect. Moreover, in order to show his prestige, he had to go and disturb some of his fellow brothers to plan for the position of the Sect Leader in the future.
"Looks like Daoist Shi has some prejudice against you, Ninth Uncle!" Ye Xuan, who had seen everything clearly, walked over and smiled.
"Hehe, I've embarrassed myself in front of you." Lin Fengjiao did not explain anything, she just smiled, then turned to Wen Cai and Qiu Sheng and said, "Qiu Sheng, you and Wen Cai go to the tofu shop in town and ask them to make some tofu for you."
"Ma-Master, why do we need tofu?" Wen Cai asked curiously.
"Idiot, of course it's because I suddenly want to eat tofu," Qiu Sheng scolded, thinking that he was smart.
"You're the idiot!" Lin Fengjiao slapped the back of Qiu Sheng's head and scolded him, then explained, "This tofu is not for me, it's for ghosts."
"For ghosts to eat? Master, do ghosts like to eat tofu? "Qiu Sheng touched the back of his head and said.
"Of course, haven't you heard of deceiving ghosts to eat tofu? But this tofu is different from the tofu we eat. When you go to the tofu shop, tell the tofu chef to add some red beans in addition to soybeans! "Lin Fengjiao said.
"Why, why red beans? Ma-Master?" Wen Cai asked.
"Because after adding red beans, ghosts will tremble when they eat it. This way, it'll be much safer for you to attract ghosts," Lin Fengjiao explained to her two disciples.
"Okay, Master, we'll get someone to make tofu for us immediately."
