I traverse America, using holy light to quell American terror!

The question slipped out, and then Li Yuan suddenly remembered that Grace couldn't speak.

He chuckled softly, handed the bathrobe to Grace, and then took the things from her hands.

Upon touching it, Li Yuan felt that the texture was like some kind of fabric.

After carefully examining it for a moment, I guessed that it was a folded, worn-out piece of linen.

Li Yuan looked up at Grace and asked curiously:

"Was this left behind by that monster?"

Grace was happily wearing her bathrobe.

Upon hearing Li Yuan's question, he quickly nodded at him.

Li Yuan frowned as he unfolded the linen cloth, discovering a mysterious emblem drawn on it.

Around the edge of the linen cloth were some unintelligible letters and numbers.

Recalling the plot of the movie, Li Yuan remembered the origin of this piece of linen:

"This is probably a sealing spell, right?"

As he spoke, Li Yuan folded the linen back into its original shape.

He vaguely remembered that in the movie, the linen was folded in half...

Two pieces of information about Grace appeared.

After the linen was folded twice, Li Yuan indeed found what was written on it.

He recited the text information written above, word by word.

Leviticus, 20:27, 1693.

Hearing Li Yuan's words, Grace's eyes dimmed.

That was the year and the charges against her when she was tried.

Li Yuan also recalled the meaning behind these messages.

The Book of Leviticus in the Bible is a judgment text for the church.

Many religious trials were judged based on this scripture.

And the content of Chapter 20, Section 27 is:

"Any man or woman who associates with spirits or sorcerers shall be put to death by stone; their sin shall be their own doing."

This means that Grace was considered a witch at the time, capable of communicating with the devil.

Therefore, the believers wanted to put her to death and give her the most vicious punishment.

This guilt was written on the sealing spell by fanatical believers.

They stuffed the linen along with the cloth into Grace's belly.

Li Yuan glanced at Grace, whose expression was filled with sorrow, and sighed inwardly:

No one knows whether Grace was a witch or not.

The witch hunts of that time killed many innocent women, and she may have been one of them.

Thinking of this, Li Yuan shook his head again:

"But judging from Grace's current abilities, she really does seem like a witch."

The film depicts a scenario where ordinary people are drawn into hallucinations and forced to kill each other.

Tommy and his son dissected Grace, and ultimately they died in the same way as Grace, who was being dissected.

This ability is somewhat like that of a voodoo doll.

Absorbing souls to repair one's own body is practically standard practice for demons of hell.

Thinking of this, Li Yuan couldn't help but laugh:

"Why think so much? Anyway, she's my servant now, what she was before doesn't matter."

Grace looked at Li Yuan with some confusion.

Seeing him shake his head and laugh intermittently, I had no idea what he was doing.

Noticing Grace staring at him, Li Yuan glanced at her bathrobe.

He said with a smile:

"You can press your hands against the clothes on your body and imagine what they look like in your mind, and they will become that way."

Grace nodded with a hint of disbelief.

He then placed his hands on his bathrobe, closed his eyes, and focused his mind in deep thought.

A moment later, Grace's bathrobe...

It transformed into a snow-white, 17th-century aristocratic-style corset dress!

When Grace opened her eyes, she found herself wearing the clothes she had imagined in her mind.

I happily spun around in place.

Li Yuan opened his mouth, intending to suggest she change into something simpler.

Seeing how happy the other person was, he ultimately had no choice but to shut his mouth.

Just as Li Yuan led Grace out of the bathroom,

They happened to run into Tommy and Sheriff Burke, who were waiting at the door.

The two were startled when they saw Grace behind Li Yuan.

Sheriff Burke even drew his pistol and aimed it at Grace behind Li Yuan!

"Mr. Li Yuan! There is something evil behind you!"

Li Yuan smiled and waved his hand, explaining to Sheriff Burke:

"Don't worry, Grace is not in danger. I've taken care of her."

Upon hearing this, Sheriff Burke exchanged a glance with Tommy beside him.

They both saw a hint of disbelief in each other's eyes.

However, looking at Grace standing behind Li Yuan, dressed in a white dress and resembling a lady from a noble family,

Sheriff Burke slowly holstered his pistol.

"Um... Mr. Li Yuan, while I acknowledge your abilities, I still feel I need an explanation."

"sure."

Li Yuan nodded, then asked Tommy:

"Is there anything to eat? I haven't eaten anything on the way here. Let's eat and chat."

"Oh! Yes, please wait a moment, Mr. Li Yuan."

A moment later, at Tommy's restaurant.

While eating, Li Yuan explained the matter to Sheriff Burke.

Li Yuan simply recounted Grace's origins and the various torments she suffered during her life.

When Li Yuan spoke of the various forms of torture Grace had suffered...

Tommy nodded in agreement.

Li Yuan answered all the questions that were discovered during the autopsy.

As Li Yuan finished speaking, the way Sheriff Burke and Tommy looked at Grace at the dinner table changed.

They were no longer afraid of the unfortunate woman; instead, they felt a sense of sympathy for her.

Grace didn't care about the stares of the crowd.

She swallowed the milk in the glass with difficulty.

At the same time, he felt a little envious as he watched Li Yuan eating heartily beside him.

Although Grace really wanted to taste the food,

But without a tongue, she couldn't chew food and could only watch.

Looking at Grace's eager expression, Li Yuan asked curiously:

"Is your tongue specially sealed?"

Normally, the power of holy light should be able to heal your tongue.

Grace shook her head helplessly, indicating that she didn't know either.

She asked Tommy to bring her paper and pen and wrote down a message.

Peter said I would never find the tongue; it was probably hidden by these people.

Li Yuan nodded and said:

"These guys are so boring, they even have to hide their tongues."

After finishing his meal, Li Yuan put down his utensils and prepared to say goodbye to Tommy and Burke.

But then he suddenly realized that Grace didn't have an identity yet, and taking a plane would be a hassle.

Li Yuan looked at Tommy beside him and asked somewhat embarrassedly:

"Tommy, could Grace and I stay here for the night?"

"Of course! You can stay as long as you like!"

I heard that Li Yuan seems to want to rest.

Officer Burke then said goodbye to Li Yuan.

"Then I'll head back now, Li Yuan. If you need anything in Grantham, just let me know anytime."

"I will, Sheriff Burke."

Li Yuan knew that in a place like Grantham, a county sheriff like Burke was practically a local tyrant.

He was not directly under the jurisdiction of his superiors and had independent power.

He decides entirely how to arrest people and how to handle cases.

Thinking of this, Li Yuan spoke up:

"If it's convenient, could you please get Grace some kind of identification?"

Otherwise, she wouldn't be able to fly back to Los Angeles with me.

Sheriff Burke smiled and nodded, agreeing in a relaxed tone:

"No problem, it's very simple. I'll bring the materials to you tomorrow after I'm done."

Li Yuan stood up, shook hands with Burke, and said with a smile:

"Thank you, Sheriff Burke, this has been a great help."

Burke shook his head and said:

"Li Yuan, this is nothing."

Without you, I might be one of those four corpses in the Douglas family today.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Li Yuan saw Burke off and then followed Tommy to the guest room.

Li Yuan glanced at the time on his watch and realized it was almost midnight.

His eyes lit up, he took out his phone, and dialed the number of the church's assistant bishop, Herman.

A mischievous smile crept across his face.
