"If it weren't for your Li Family breaking the rules, would so many problems have arisen in the village?"
"Did you Li Family do this on purpose?"
"Are you trying to harm us?"
As these words were spoken, the Li Family became anxious.
"What do you mean by that, Village Chief?"
"Are you accusing us of deliberately breaking the rules?"
"Do I look like that kind of person to you?"
"You are the one who looks like that kind of person!"
"You Ma Family are the ones!"
"You Ma Family are being unreasonable!"
"You are the ones breaking the rules!"
"You don't follow the rules yourselves, yet blame others!"
"You are all in cahoots!"
"You bully people!"
The Village Chief waved his hand impatiently. "Enough! Stop arguing!"
"Is this really the time to fight?"
"Can we not make a scene?"
"Can we have a moment of peace?"
"Can you stop causing me trouble?"
"Let's get things done according to the rules!"
But the Li Family was still unwilling to back down.
"You need to give us an explanation, Village Chief!"
"Yes! You have to give us an explanation!"
"You can't be so biased!"
The Village Chief's face turned red with anger. "What the hell are you talking about?"
"Try saying that again!"
"Do you believe I won't beat you to death?"
The Li Family immediately fell silent.
With a helpless sigh, the Village Chief said, "Ah! You all are truly impossible!"
"Are you all stupid?"
"Is this really the time to be arguing about this?"
"Can't you think for a moment?"
At that moment, the Eight Immortals suddenly spoke up, "Village Chief, it's getting late."
"The evil spirits have already appeared; if we don't handle this soon, it will be too late."
He pointed at the shaman's corpse. "If she starts to stir, she will turn into a vengeful ghost."
Upon hearing this, the Li Family was instantly terrified.
They no longer dared to argue.
The villagers began to blame the Li Family as well.
"You Li Family are going too far!"
"How can you be so selfish?"
"It's bad enough that you don't follow the rules; now you're trying to ruin ours!"
"What are you really up to?"
"What do you want to do?"
The Li Family lowered their heads in silence.
The Village Chief sighed helplessly, "Sigh! Fine! Let's proceed according to tradition!"
This year's sacrificial ceremony was held on the fifteenth of July.
On this day, a crowd gathered beneath the Old Huai Tree.
Everyone looked tense and remained silent.
The ceremony was presided over by the Village Chief.
Everything proceeded as usual.
Just when I thought things would go smoothly, a sudden chill swept through the air.
The gust came quickly and left just as fast.
Except for me, no one else seemed to notice.
But then, a dark shadow emerged from the trunk of the Old Huai Tree.
It exuded a thick black mist, accompanied by a chilling wail.
The hole in the trunk of the Old Huai Tree resembled an eye.
This eye fixed its gaze upon us.
It sent shivers down our spines!
Then, a gigantic Black Cat crawled out from the hollow.
It radiated an eerie crimson glow, like a lantern.
It stared at us coldly, its gaze too intimidating to meet.
At that moment, the Eight Immortals quickly reacted.
They took out the Yin Yang Flag and set up a formation.
They enclosed the villagers and the corpses within the array.
Then, they shot the last Yin Yang Flag towards the Black Cat.
Just then, a woman suddenly rushed out!
She desperately ran towards the Old Huai Tree and knelt beneath it, bowing her head!
It was Li Chunlan from the Li Family!
"Don't!"
"Don't kill it!"
"It's innocent!"
Upon hearing this, everyone was enraged!
"The Li Family is back!"
"Here comes Li Chunlan again!"
"She wouldn't let us cremate the shaman before, and now she won't let us exorcise the ghost cat!"
"What does she want?"
"Is she out of her mind?"
The Village Chief hurried over to pull her away: "Li Chunlan, have you lost your mind?"
