When the eight trigrams mirror was pressed against her, the pig hair on Wu Lianhua's body quickly receded.
Her emotions gradually stabilized.
Her struggling limbs also slowly ceased their struggle.
Only her breathing became more rapid.
Wu Lian Yong and Madam Wu, standing nearby, saw this.
Although quite frightened, they saw that Lao Mo and I had managed to subdue Wu Lianhua, and were quite impressed with our skills.
After a while, Wu Lianhua calmed down.
Lao Mo and I also released our grip.
Wu Lian Yong and Madam Wu hurried forward and spoke to me:
"Daoist Priest Qin, what, what should we do? Will my sister really turn into a pig?"
"Yes, Daoist Priest, you must save my daughter, she hasn't even gotten married yet!"
I glanced at Wu Lianhua. Given her current state, being alive was good enough, let alone thinking about marriage.
However, Wu Lianhua appeared drowsy.
Sighing, I said to Wu Lian Yong and Madam Wu:
"The problem is a bit tricky.
That female ghost attached to Sister Wu is stubborn and difficult to deal with.
And she's more powerful than we imagined.
There's no other way now.
We can only resort to force and drive that female ghost out."
"Then, then Daoist Priest Qin, please act quickly!"
"Yes! As long as you can save my daughter, any method is acceptable!"
Wu Lian Yong and Madam Wu replied.
They were extremely worried about Wu Lianhua's safety.
It had to be said, despite Wu Lianhua's harshness, her family treated her quite well.
I nodded;
"Alright! We'll make our move at ten o'clock tonight, during the hour of Hai."
Wu Lian Yong, upon hearing this, seemed confused:
"Daoist Priest Qin, why wait until tonight? Can't we perform the ritual now?"
Before I could answer, Lao Mo added:
"That female ghost has strong obsessions; she's not an ordinary minor ghost.
She is unwilling to come out.
During the daytime, forcing her out would be even more difficult.
If she controls your sister's body and acts erratically,
your sister will be the one to suffer..."
Only then did Wu Lian Yong understand.
He nodded in agreement.
After all, we were the professionals in this field.
With Wu Lianhua subdued by the eight trigrams mirror, there wouldn't be any immediate problems.
So, we withdrew.
Madam Wu's face had a piece of flesh bitten off.
I asked Wu Lian Yong to take his mother outside for treatment first.
After Wu Lian Yong and Madam Wu left,
the villa was left with just Lao Mo, me, the little fox, and two maids, with Wu Lianhua lying on the bed.
At this moment, Lao Mo and I left Wu Lianhua's room and went to the adjacent one.
We were preparing to discuss the details and plan for tonight's exorcism.
As soon as we entered the room, we closed the door.
Seeing us return, the little fox poked its little head out.
Upon seeing the little fox, Lao Mo exclaimed with surprise:
"Little Mei is here too?"
Seeing that we had closed the door, Little Mei directly darted out.
She transformed, becoming a charming and seductive long-legged beauty in black stockings.
Lao Mo's eyes widened, almost drooling.
I coughed, and Lao Mo snapped back to attention.
Feeling a bit embarrassed, he said:
"Hehehe, Little Mei, you've gotten even prettier?"
Little Mei let out a chuckle.
Even her laughter was alluring; truly a vixen.
I directly sat on a nearby chair, paying little attention, and calmly said:
"Lao Mo, what do you think of that female ghost?"
Hearing my question, Lao Mo finally shifted his gaze.
"What else can I think?
With the two of us, the Demon Exorcism Duo, she's nothing but trash.
After all, I am the Son of Light, the Arbiter of Fate..."
Hearing this, I rolled my eyes.
His chuunibyou had flared up again, so I quickly stopped him:
"Alright, alright, I know your title.
I just want to ask if you have any good methods for exorcism?"
Lao Mo scratched his head:
"This, this, not at the moment..."
Asking him was as good as asking nothing.
I took a deep breath and then explained my plan:
"Lao Mo, this female ghost seems to have strong obsessions,
to the point where communication is impossible.
We can only rely on talismans for now.
Later, I'll first use an exorcism talisman to force out the female ghost.
Once the female ghost leaves the host's body, Lao Mo, you will use your ensnaring technique to lock her down.
Then pull her out.
Once the female ghost is out of the human body, dealing with her will be much easier."
Lao Mo nodded directly after hearing my words:
"Okay, we'll do just that then!
However, you saw what happened earlier; it was truly bizarre.
A perfectly normal person suddenly grew pig hair on their body.
That female ghost might not be that simple either..."
I agreed with this point very much.
Even if the female ghost continuously controlled Sister Wu to eat,
it would only make her fat.
But growing pig hair and wild boar tusks on her body was very strange...
Just as Lao Mo and I were wondering why this was happening,
Little Mei suddenly spoke up to add:
"Could that person have Gu in their body?"
Upon hearing this, Lao Mo and I simultaneously turned to look at Little Mei.
We exclaimed in surprise:
"Gu?"
Gu, both Lao Mo and I had heard about it from our masters, and had read about it in books at the shop.
It was even featured in many TV shows.
It was a unique art of sorcery from the Miao region.
The existence forms of Gu were numerous.
The most common and well-known was the Gu insect.
When my master was alive, he said we humans were spirits of heaven and earth, while Gu was the essence of heaven and earth.
The functions of Gu were also diverse.
There were poison Gu that could kill people, longevity Gu that coexisted with humans, and spirit Gu that controlled people's minds, among others.
The types were numerous and varied.
And Wu Lianhua, covered in pig hair, besides being possessed by a ghost, could she really have been afflicted by some kind of Gu?
Therefore, causing her body to undergo such strange changes?
