Hashing out an Agreement

Hearing the monk's words, Di Tou's heart jumped a beat as he felt a surge of excitement, but he carefully suppressed it before saying in a calm tone, raising his eyebrows, "Oh? A Yin Body, then? I happen to have some experience in dealing with such spirits. Shall we go together?"

Furrowing his eyebrows, the monk hesitated for a second before saying, "Benefactor, it's not that I doubt you, but these spirits are malicious and tricky. Should we run into a mishap… I'm afraid I won't be able to protect benefactor should anything go wrong."

Waving his hand, Di Tou let out a slightly bitter smile and said, "You have a point, but you don't have to worry about me. I'm confident in getting out alive should anything go wrong. It's just that if we wait for your fellow monks to come, how many of the poor souls in the village might suffer?"
