Chapter 53: The Absurd Snake-Removal Operation
When Liu Yu heard the system issue a new task, his heart tightened immediately. "This system really doesn't give me any peace and quiet. I wonder what kind of trouble it will cause this time."
The system said, "Host, because Bai Suzhen revealed her true form on the Dragon Boat Festival, it caused panic among the surrounding people. They invited a strange man who claims to be a 'snake exorcism master' to carry out a snake exorcism operation against you. You must find a way to deal with it."
Liu Yu's eyes widened. "What? A snake-repelling operation? What is all this about?!"
Xu Xian, standing to the side, turned pale with fright. "What should we do?"
Xiaoqing, however, didn't care at all. "What's there to be afraid of? If one comes, we'll take it on; if two come, we'll take them both on!"
Bai Suzhen frowned. "We must not be rash. Let's think of a solution."
Just then, they heard the sound of gongs and drums outside, and someone was shouting loudly, "Drive away the snake! Drive away the snake!"
Liu Yu and the others quickly looked out the window and saw a large group of people walking towards them. The leader was a guy dressed in strange clothes and wearing an exaggerated hat. He was holding a long bamboo pole with all sorts of strange talismans hanging on it. This must be the "snake exorcism master".
"This master looks like a charlatan!" Liu Yu couldn't help but laugh.
The "snake-repelling master" walked to the door and shouted, "Snake demons inside, listen up! Come out and surrender now, or I will use my great magic to leave you nowhere to escape!"
Upon hearing this, Xiaoqing was furious. "Hmph, I'll go out and teach him a lesson!"
Bai Suzhen quickly stopped her, "Don't be impulsive."
Liu Yu's eyes lit up. "I have an idea."
He opened the door, went out, and said to the "snake-repelling master" with a grin, "Master, is your snake-repelling skill really that amazing?"
The "snake-repelling master" tilted his head back and said, "Of course, I am a renowned snake-repelling master. No snake demon can escape my grasp."
Liu Yu feigned surprise, "Then why don't you show us what you've got?"
The "snake-repelling master" said confidently, "No problem, watch me."
He picked up a bamboo pole and started waving it around on the ground, muttering incantations and occasionally letting out strange cries.
Liu Yu chuckled to herself, "This master looks like he's performing a shamanistic ritual."
After dancing for a while, the "snake-driving master" stopped and asked, "How was it? Did I scare the snake demon away?"
Liu Yu suppressed a laugh and said, "Master, it doesn't seem to be working."
The "snake-driving master's" expression changed. "Impossible, it must be that my magic power hasn't been used to its fullest extent yet."
As he spoke, he began to perform even more energetically.
At this moment, Xu Xian also came out and said, "Master, this won't do either."
The "snake-repelling master" got impatient, "What do you know? Repelling snakes takes time."
Xiaoqing couldn't help but burst out laughing inside the house.
The "snake exorcism master" heard laughter. "Who? Who's laughing?"
Liu Yu quickly said, "Master, it's probably because your voice is so funny that it made the birds around you laugh."
The "snake exorcism master" was enraged and said, "How dare you laugh at me! I'll teach you a lesson!"
He swung the bamboo pole at Liu Yu.
Liu Yu dodged in a flash. "Master, are you trying to drive away a snake or hit someone?"
Just then, someone in the crowd shouted, "This master doesn't seem to be any good. Could he be a fraud?"
"That's right, that's right, they didn't drive the snake demon away at all."
People began to question the "snake exorcism master".
The "snake exorcism master" panicked, "Don't talk nonsense, give me some more time."
Taking the opportunity, Liu Yu said, "Master, if you are really capable, catch all the snakes around here and let us see them."
The "snake exorcism master" stammered, "This...this..."
"It seems you're a fraud, everyone don't believe him!" Liu Yu shouted.
Upon hearing this, the crowd angrily surrounded the "snake exorcism master."
"Liar, give me my money back!"
"Give us our money back!"
Seeing that things were not going well, the "snake exorcism master" tried to escape, but was caught by everyone.
Liu Yu and the others watched from the sidelines, laughing so hard they were doubled over.
"This is hilarious. This conman thinks he can exorcise snakes?" Liu Yu said with a laugh.
Bai Suzhen said, "Alright, although this problem has been solved, we still need to be careful in the future."
Just as they were about to go back inside, the system spoke again: "Host, a new problem has arisen..."
