After Lin Weiyu saw that her colleagues has restrained him, she turned to look at An Rugu and said with a smile, “Because of you, our department’s performance has skyrocketed. Do you know what we call you now?”

“What?”

“Hahahaha, Lucky Star.”

Lin Weiyu chatted with her for a few more minutes and said, “His capture bonus is quite high. I’ll transfer it to your account later.”

“Okay.”

As they were leaving with Qian Weilai, his hand twitched as they passed by, causing a clinking sound on the ground.

The sound was immediately drowned out by the footsteps and went unnoticed by anyone.

After sending them off, An Rugu returned to her room and looked at her feet as if she had something on her mind. The glass test tube was open, and red threads were crawling on the floor like snakes. One of the threads was only inches away from her.

If she hadn’t looked down, it might have already climbed on top of her foot.

“My body is covered with golden light.”

After she finished chanting the incantation, a faint golden light appeared on her body, which served as armor against all evil.

She put on gloves, collected all the threads back into the test tube, and sealed it.

She immediately peered through the glass at the winding, red threads inside, filled with curiosity.

It seemed to have life; it must be a kind of gu grub.

She recalled Qian Weilai’s insincere manner, and her eyes changed. Could he have been trying to cast a gu spell on her?

The most powerful gu grubs were of two types: those that kill and those that manipulate people’s hearts.

She carefully put away the wriggling, red silk thread and decided to look it up tomorrow and see what it was used for.

………..

She was heading back to her room when she passed by the little jiangshi‘s room. Suddenly, she heard a noise and went inside to see what was happening. The little jiangshi had jumped into the coffin, groped around in the dark for a while, and finally picked up a piece of candy.

She slowly tore open the packaging, put the candy in her mouth, and then lay down in the coffin with her hands on her chest, looking peaceful.

If it weren’t for the fact that her eyes were still open and she was chewing, she would look like she was asleep.

“Thank you for today.”

Seeing that she has regained her self-awareness after advancing a level and didn’t seem to have gone mad, An Rugu felt slightly relieved.

She herself wouldn’t have been in trouble since she was not at the Daoist temple at the time, but if the little jiangshi hadn’t held off Qian Weilai and instead allowed him to wreak havoc on the temple and perhaps collapsed some structures, that would be bad.

The entire Cloud Rise Temple was antique; for example, if the tiles were broken, it would be very difficult to find a place to repair them.

The little jiangshi chewed on the candy, her face slightly flushed, and remained silent for a long time.

An Rugu assumed she wouldn’t answer and prepared to turn and leave.

After thinking for a moment, she said, “… I want more candy.”

“I’ll buy it for you tomorrow.”

An Rugu considerately closed the door and walked towards her room, passing by the room where the ever-burning lamp was.

A wisp of smoke drifted outside the door, entwining around her fingers, as if it had something to say to her.

She used to be a Buddhist, but now that she’s come to the Daoist temple, she’s adapted to local customs and started reading Daoist books. She read occasionally, and occasionally came out to see the worshippers, appearing every inch the hermit in quiet contemplation.

Today, a major mess has occurred at Cloud Rise Temple. She was powerless to help, so she could only send a puff of smoke to cheer An Rugu on.

An Rugu didn’t mind and offered a few words of comfort. 

Unexpectedly, the other person suddenly said, [The curse that person mentioned sounds familiar.]

She learned very quickly and could now speak vernacular Chinese, so she no longer used classical Chinese.

An Rugu: “?”

“What’s wrong?

[I’ve seen a curse before that sounds very similar to what he described; they seem to share the same origin.]

“Where did you hear that?”

[I had always been very curious about this, and at that time I was on good terms with Liu Xiang’s young apprentice, so he gave me a book.]

An Ruguo frowned slightly, sensing something strange about the situation. “What’s his name?”

When she went down into the ancient tomb, she brought out the ever-burning lamp. All the burial objects were cursed, and the mechanics of the curses had long been lost and were very difficult to break.

At that time, she asked who had cast these curses, and she said it was Liu Xiang’s apprentice.

[Su Qiao.]

“I understand, thank you.”

After exchanging a few words, An Ruguo returned to her room, made a phone call, and informed the Special Administration Bureau of the matter, asking them to investigate the source of Qian Weilai’s learning.

The other party immediately agreed.

She undressed and lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling, lost in thought.

Could a person from over four hundred years ago still be alive today?

Moreover, Qian Weilai was the leader’s son, young yet highly skilled. It was highly likely that he was taught by the leader.

Could it be that the leader was Su Qiao…?

…………

The next day, as dawn broke, Cloud Rise Temple was layered in the faint morning light, and the air, still damp with mist, was incredibly fresh.

An Rugu opened the livestreaming platform early and prepared to start her livestream.

As soon as the livestream started, countless viewers flooded in. Compared to the usual, the comments on the screen today were very different.

[Wow, this happened in the southern suburbs of the city last night. There was a golden lightning bolt in the sky, and I took a picture. Later I checked, and it was in the direction of Cloud Rise Temple. Even though it was just one flash of lightning, the news has already gone viral on local forums and trending topics.]

[Who are you, fellow Daoist, who’s undergoing tribulation there?]

[I know who it is, but I won’t say (dog emoji).]

[Host, did you secretly undergo tribulation behind my back?]

[Host, did you save the world behind my back?]

[Streamer: Sigh, it seems I can’t hide what happened hundreds of years ago from everyone anymore. I’ll just say it directly: after cultivating up to the Mahayana-stage for a hundred years, I underwent the ascension tribulation last night.]

An Rugu: “…
