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

The Renault quickly drove into a neighborhood with a large Mexican population.

At this point in time, the largest source of immigrants to the United States was neighboring Mexico.

At that time, the border wall between the United States and Mexico had not yet been built.

Countless Mexicans illegally immigrate to the United States each year, accounting for more than half of the total immigrant population.

They all longed to gain a foothold in this "paradise".

The person Renault brought Li Yuan to find this time was a Mexican shaman.

"His name is Raphael, and he's a very nice person."

Renault, wearing sunglasses, glanced at Li Yuan with a smile:

"Just like you, I have a kind heart."

Li Yuan shrugged noncommittally; he didn't consider himself a particularly kind person.

The Renault soon stopped in a residential area.

"This is him. I haven't seen him in a long time."

Renault kept talking as he got out of the car.

Li Yuan followed Renault in silence.

We entered this building, which is full of Mexican style.

The green-painted gate was slowly opened, and a clear, crisp sound of wind chimes rang out in response.

Li Yuan looked curiously into the room, where various bottles and jars were displayed.

And those burning white candles.

A middle-aged Mexican man frowned at Renault and asked in confusion:

"Renault, you lucky guy, are you in trouble?"

"Long time no see, Raphael. I'd rather trouble find me."

Renault greeted everyone warmly, then waved behind him and introduced:

"This is Li Yuan, also a fantastic exorcist!"

"My name is Raphael, it's nice to meet you."

Raphael smiled and greeted his colleague, Li Yuan.

Li Yuan smiled and nodded, then stated his purpose:

"I heard you have mandrake here, could you sell me some?"

Raphael frowned again upon hearing that the other party wanted mandrake.

He said somewhat awkwardly:

"To be honest, I don't have much here either, and I need to keep some for use as materials."

Seeing that the other party seemed somewhat embarrassed, Li Yuan quickly explained:

"I only need one."

Li Yuan didn't have high needs for it; he just wanted to see how effective this demon-slaying potion was.

If it performs well, it can be sold as another profitable item.

Upon hearing that Li Yuan only wanted one plant, Raphael finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"One plant is fine, do you want it alive or dried?"

Then, he kindly reminded Li Yuan:

"If there are no special requirements, the dried version is cheaper."

Li Yuan wasn't sure what kind was suitable either.

But judging from Raphael's words, he seemed to be living a better life.

He then said, "I still want one that's alive."

"Okay, wait a moment, I'll go get it for you."

Raphael said no more, nodded, and turned to walk back into his room.

Seeing the deal go through, Renault, standing to the side, happily showed off to Li Yuan:

"Am I right? Raphael is very easy to talk to."

Li Yuan smiled and nodded, agreeing with the other party's statement.

However, Raphael's appearance looked somewhat familiar to Li Yuan.

I guess he's an exorcist who appeared in some movie.

Ever since I learned that this world is somewhat special,

Li Yuan had already gotten used to seeing these familiar faces appearing one after another.

Just then, the wind chimes at the door rang again.

A pale-faced Mexican woman rushed in, pulling two little boys with her.

The woman asked anxiously as soon as she entered the room:

"Excuse me, which one of you is Master Raphael?"

Hearing the commotion at the door, Raphael, carrying a mandrake still covered in mud, quickly came out.

"Madam, is there anything I can help you with?"

He casually handed the mandrake to Li Yuan and stated the price:

"I'll take your $200."

"Thank you. Since you have other things to do, we won't bother you any longer."

Li Yuan took the mandrake, pulled out two hundred US dollars and handed it to the other person, then smiled and said goodbye.

Seeing that the two had completed the transaction, the woman spoke again:

"Master Raphael, my child is possessed by an evil spirit!"

As the woman spoke, she pulled up the sleeves of both children.

Raphael held up the child's two thin arms.

Li Yuan, who was about to turn and leave, paused upon hearing this.

He looked at the child next to the woman with a curious expression.

On the inside of both boys' wrists, there were several scabs, resembling burns.

Raphael was taken aback when he heard this, but when he looked at the mark on the boy's hand, his face darkened.

"Larona's Mark..."

The woman seemed to know what it was; upon hearing Raphael's words, she pleaded in terror:

"Master Raphael, do you have a way? Please save the child..."

Raphael was about to say something when he turned around and saw that Li Yuan was still there, so he gave him a questioning look.

Li Yuan sensed the other person's gaze and quickly explained:

"Mr. Raphael, would you mind if I listened in for a moment? I'm quite interested in this as well."

Even if there's no money to be made, the experience is still valuable.

Li Yuan didn't mind accepting it.

After all, dealing with some ghosts or evil spirits...

For Li Yuan, it was a piece of cake, a task he handled with ease.

"Sure, no problem."

Raphael nodded, then said to the woman:

"You know, Larona is a tough nut to crack."

The woman nodded, crying and pleading:

"I'm willing to give anything to save my child's life."

"No, it's not about how much you sacrifice."

Raphael paused for a moment before speaking:

"Because I'm not confident I can beat it, I can only do my best."

"Master Raphael, I'm at my wit's end. The church doesn't care about me at all..."

The woman suddenly knelt down before Raphael:

"Just do your best, I don't want to watch my child die without doing anything..."

Seeing this, Raphael quickly helped the woman up and sighed:

"Okay, wait a moment."

Raphael then returned to the house to prepare his exorcism equipment.

"Larona..."

Li Yuan slowly uttered the name, while recalling the movies associated with it in his mind.

At this moment, the woman beside him seemed to have heard the name Li Yuan had called out.

Her voice trembled slightly as she explained to Li Yuan:

"La Rona... the curse of the weeping woman... Mexico's most famous ghost legend... being targeted by her brings misfortune..."

The woman opened her arms and hugged the two well-behaved boys tightly, saying in a fit of emotion:

"Until the children were cursed, I always thought it was just a legend..."

Upon hearing these words from the woman,

Li Yuan finally remembered which movie it was.

He looked at the mother and her two children kneeling on the ground, and their corresponding identities in the drama flashed through his mind.

They were the ones who were betrayed by the unsuspecting female protagonist at the very beginning of the movie.

In the end, the two little boys who received their boxed lunches, along with their mother Patricia, were the ones who got their meals.

Renault, who had overheard the gist of the conversation, asked, somewhat eager to try:

"This time... I can go with you, right?"

Li Yuan turned to look at Renault and gave him a speechless glare.
