Quickly wear a life of peace
Chapter 52: Liao Zhai White Lotus 3
Du Juan is truly grateful to God for letting her have such good friends. When she is confused, she still has friends to accompany her.
"This is what friends should do." Bai Lian said gently.
"Yes, we will always be good friends." Xiyan also said.
Du Juan nodded slightly, feeling warm in her heart.
"Let's practice hard together and ascend to become immortals together in the future." Du Juan said firmly.
"Okay!" Xiyan and Bailian answered in unison.
From then on, the three demons practiced more diligently, and their magic power improved day by day. Xiyan felt that she was about to touch the edge of transformation.
Dujuan would also come down the mountain from time to time to secretly visit Mudan and care about her life.
That day, Dujuan went down the mountain to see the peonies as usual.
However, when she arrived at Mudan's house, she found it empty.
Dujuan felt uneasy and looked around for Mudan.
After some inquiries, she learned that Feng Sheng's family had already moved away.
It turned out that a Taoist priest with profound Taoist skills passed by here and discovered that Peony, whose power had been greatly reduced, was actually a flower demon.
The Taoist priest wanted to take Peony away, but Feng Sheng learned that Peony was a demon. He was so scared that he didn't even want the child anymore and hurriedly moved away with his parents.
In order to protect her child, Mudan was seriously injured by the Taoist priest and could not even escape. She was finally captured by the Taoist priest. Fortunately, the child escaped in the chaos and is now missing.
Dujuan was scared and worried, so she hurried back to the mountain and told Bai Lian and Xi Yan the unfortunate news.
The three flower demons were extremely anxious, but now only Dujuan had successfully transformed and could run around. Xiyan and Bailian could only stay rooted in the soil and could not move.
"What should I do..." Xiyan said anxiously.
"We have to think of a way to find Mudan and her child," said Dujuan, who was best friends with Mudan and was extremely worried.
"But how do we find it? The world is so big..." Xiyan said helplessly.
"No matter what, I have to go down the mountain to find Mudan and Ling'er." Dujuan decided, "Mudan's power has greatly decreased, and I don't know what's happened to Ling'er. I have to bring them back."
"It's too dangerous! You may not be a match for that Taoist priest." Bai Lian was worried, and the leaves were drooping.
But Dujuan was determined to save Mudan and completely ignored Bai Lian's advice.
"Then you must be careful, Dujuan." Bai Lian and Xi Yan had no choice but to remind him again and again.
Dujuan nodded and went down the mountain. She asked around for the whereabouts of Mudan and the child, but she could not get any definite news.
Just when she felt desperate, she met a wounded bird by chance. Dujuan kindly healed the bird's wound, and the bird helped her find Peony's child in return.
It turned out that the child escaped into the mountains, fell into a trap, and was rescued by a hunter.
Dujuan was overjoyed and wanted to take the child back to the valley immediately. But the child didn't want to go with Dujuan, he cried and hugged the hunter's thigh tightly.
"Wuwuwu, I won't leave. I want to stay with my uncle."
Dujuan was stunned. She didn't expect the child would refuse to go back with her.
"Ling'er, come with me, I will take good care of you." Dujuan squatted down and tried to persuade the child.
"I don't know you. I want to stay with my uncle." The child still refused to let go.
Dujuan looked at the hunter helplessly, and the hunter gave an awkward smile.
"This kid has been with me for a while and is familiar with me. Why don't you wait a little longer and take him away after he is familiar with you."
Dujuan thought for a moment, but gave up. The child was safe now, but Mudan's safety was more important.
Dujuan took out some money and placed it in the hunter's rough hands, her eyes filled with endless gratitude and entrustment.
Asking the hunter to take care of the child temporarily, the hunter nodded silently. He liked Ling'er very much, and there would be compensation, so he agreed.
Du Juan turned and left, her heart becoming heavier. Mudan's situation made her extremely anxious, and she had to find her as soon as possible.
After making inquiries from many sources, Du Juan learned that the soldier was ordered to go to the neighboring town of Yunshan to capture the rumored man-eating wolf monster.
Du Juan rushed to Yunshan Town without stopping. She searched for clues everywhere and finally found out the whereabouts of the Taoist priest. It was said that the Taoist priest had gone into the mountains to deal with the wolf demon.
Du Juan's heart tightened and she quickened her pace. She went deep into the forest and moved forward cautiously.
She heard a fight in the distance, and approached quietly, only to see the Taoist priest fighting fiercely with a giant wolf demon.
The wolf demon was extremely ferocious, and the Taoist priest gradually lost the upper hand. Du Juan looked around secretly, but could not find Mudan.
Dujuan knew that the wolf demon was ferocious and if the Taoist priest was defeated, he would die. For Mudan's sake, she could only help the Taoist priest capture the wolf demon.
Du Juan rushed forward without hesitation and started a fierce battle with the wolf demon. She used all her skills to deal with the wolf demon.
Seeing this, the Taoist priest took the opportunity to cast a spell and finally subdued the wolf demon. The Taoist priest looked at Du Juan with a flash of surprise in his eyes. He didn't expect that there would be a demon who would help him deal with demons.
"Why do you want to help me?" asked the Taoist priest.
Dujuan was covered in blood and weak, so she told the Taoist priest about Peony.
The Taoist was silent for a moment, then said, "I see. But her marriage to a human is against the will of heaven. It is harmful to her husband's family. However, your courage and loyalty are admirable."
Dujuan asked hurriedly: "What about Peony? Where is she?"
The Taoist pointed down the mountain and said, "She was bound by my Taoist magic and placed in the government office at the foot of the mountain."
Dujuan quickly begged the Taoist priest to take her to find Mudan, and promised to bring Mudan back to the mountain and never come out again.
The Taoist thought about it and agreed, "I believe you are a good demon. You don't have blood in your body, but humans and demons are different. Living together will only harm both sides."
Dujuan just realized this was happening and found it unbelievable, but she was worried about Mudan and didn't want to think too much about it.
The Taoist priest brought Dujuan to the gate of the yamen and asked her to wait for a while, as places like the yamen would be harmful to monsters.
After a while, the Taoist priest came out holding a flowerpot containing the peony.
At this time, the peony leaves were yellow and the petals were withered. It looked like it was dying and looked very pitiful.
Du Juan anxiously stepped forward to take Peony and pleaded with the Taoist priest, "Please, Taoist priest, unseal Peony. I will definitely take her back and never let her out again."
The Taoist nodded and soothed her, "Don't worry, it's not very convenient here with so many people coming and going. Besides, she has damaged her essence, so keeping her original form will help her recover. Take her back and take her out of the flowerpot, and the seal will be lifted naturally."
Dujuan felt relieved after hearing this. She thanked the Taoist priest and took Mudan back to the mountains.
