Chapter 152 The Death Talisman

A cold glint appeared in Nan Yu's eyes, as if she were facing a jackal or a tiger.

"Throw it away right away."

Ren Xingzhou asked in confusion, "Nan Yu, this is a talisman that your mother specially got for you. Why did you throw it away?"

Nan Yu raised her head, her slightly moving eyes swirling with nameless emotions.
"Lend me your lighter."

Ren Xingzhou, puzzled, took out a lighter from his pocket and handed it to Nan Yu.

"What do you want to do?"

Nan Yu took the lighter, then took the amulet and lit it right in front of him.

Upon seeing this, Ren Xingzhou quickly snatched the amulet from her hand, dropped it on the ground, and extinguished it with sand.

"Nan Yu, if you don't want it, you don't want it. Why are you burning it? It's a talisman, after all!"

Nan Yu seems like a very well-behaved child, so why is she so rebellious when facing her mother?

Nan Yu met Ren Xingzhou's incomprehension with a disdainful smile.

"Brother Ren, can you smell something delicious?"

Ren Xingzhou sniffed the air, and a peculiar fragrance wafted into his nose.

He couldn't help but sniff it a couple more times and discovered that the fragrance was coming from the amulet on the ground.

It's alluring and seductive.

"I can smell it, but this fragrance is so strange."

Nan Yu picked up the burnt amulet from the ground, tore off the outer red cloth to reveal what was inside.

It wasn't a cinnabar and yellow talisman, but rather a piece of dried, strange grass wrapped in a piece of red paper.

The strange fragrance also came from that small piece of withered grass.

"This withered grass is not harmful to humans, but its fragrance can attract wild beasts, causing them to become excited and frenzied, and they will attack the person carrying it."

Ren Xingzhou frowned, quickly snatched the piece of withered grass, and brought it to his nose to smell it carefully.

"Are you sure? She's your mother, after all. How could she possibly harm you?"

Nan Yu looked down the mountain, her eyes filled with an even deeper chill, glistening with a layer of water.

She said in a hoarse voice, "I'm sure this isn't a talisman, it's a death warrant. We have to get rid of it immediately."

Ren Xingzhou hesitated. "But this is a talisman your mother got for you. You're her own daughter. She wouldn't possibly want to kill her own daughter, would she? What if you've made a mistake?"

Nan Yu looked at Ren Xingzhou, surprised that he was so naive.

"Brother Ren, if you don't believe me, give it to me, and I'll show you the truth."

Ren Xingzhou licked his dry lips and placed them in Nan Yu's palm.

Nan Yu took out a handkerchief from her pocket and wrapped the strange herb inside.

"Brother Ren, are you fast on your motorcycle?"

Ren Xingzhou looked at her with a puzzled expression. "It's alright."

Nan Yu smiled slightly, "Then, if you ride your motorcycle now, can you help me catch up with them?"

Ren Xingzhou was stunned. "You mean Miss Qingqing and the others?"

Nan Yu nodded, "Yes."

"Of course I can, I'm going to open the door for them anyway." Ren Xingzhou paused for two seconds, glancing at the thing in her hand. "But you're not thinking of giving this to Miss Qingqing, are you?"

Nan Yu shook her head. "I won't give it to her."

Ren Xingzhou pressed further, "Then what do you want to do with this?"

Nan Yu said, "You'll find out soon enough."

Ren Xingzhou frowned and pursed his lips, saying, "Let me take you there first."

After saying that, the two got on their motorcycles and went down the mountain to catch up with Sheng Ruomei and Nan Qingqing, who had gone ahead.

At this moment, Sheng Ruomei and Nan Qingqing asked the driver to stop the car on the side of the road.

Nan Qingqing sat in the back seat of the car, occasionally sticking her head out to look into the deep forest beside her.

"Mom, are those two people Dad found really reliable? They just went to feed a few chickens to the wild beasts, why haven't they come back yet?"

Sheng Ruomei took her hand and looked outside as well.

"It's absolutely reliable, so don't worry. The chickens were given the medicine according to the Ghost Doctor's dosage. Once those beasts eat it, they'll go crazy."

"Then we'll follow the scent to find Nan Yu. Even if Nan Yu doesn't die this time, she'll be severely injured!"
