Chapter Seventy-Three: The Old Taoist
There is no other reason, Li Lin has a powerful man sitting in that village, who dares to make trouble, wait to be blasted out by Grandpa Shen!
Unless it is a dean-level bigwig, the village guarded by Grandpa Shen will be safer than anywhere else!
And Li Lin also believes that no matter how the Liu family goes to heaven, it is impossible to invite dean-level bigwigs, they are all Confucians who are often more than five stars, who dares to invite them to do such a disgraceful thing?
Therefore, the Liu family's psychological offensive, under the protection of Grandpa Shen, was officially declared invalid against Li Lin!
Li Lin even had some expectations, the people of the Liu family really didn't know how to send them to the door, to practice their skills for Grandpa Shen, and at the same time, they could also tell him that the old man was having a hard time in the academy, and you saw that the enemies had come to the door......
"Okay, let's go!" Li Lin smiled slightly, and then said with a somewhat embarrassed expression: "That...... Miss Flyfeather, I don't know how to ride a horse......"
Sang Hong, who was about to turn over and get on the horse, almost fell down when he heard this, he couldn't help but roll his eyes, and said helplessly: "Then you can ride a horse with me!"
This test is a contest of time, at this time, there is no effort to let Li Lin learn horses slowly, Liu Changwen and Sang Hong Lichen have already set off for Chuanshangzhuang, if Sang Hong Feiyu and Li Lin don't hurry up, they are afraid that they will fall behind at the beginning.
If you don't get off to a good start, it won't have a good impact on the progress of the future.
So in desperation, Sang Hongfei had to let Li Lin share a horse with her.
Li Lin listened to Sang Hong's words, and was immediately a little flattered, but now there are too many entanglements that are meaningless, so after hesitating for a while, he still got on Sang Hongfei's horse.
If two people ride together, the speed must be much slower.
In addition, Li Lin and Sang Hongfeiyu were both a little unnatural about this, and their speed was much slower, and by the time they arrived at Xiaozhang Village, it was already close to evening.
If it was Shen Zhen, she would have been angry with Li Lin at this moment, and complained and scolded mercilessly, but Sang Hongyu was more mature and steady in her mind, and knew that there was no point in complaining about this, so under Li Lin's embarrassed gaze, she just smiled back and didn't say anything.
Finally, the two arrived at their destination.
Li Lin looked at this small village with few households, took out the map and checked the direction, and after making sure that it was correct, he went in side by side with Sang Hongfei.
Sang Hongfei led the horse, looking at the already dim sky, and for some reason there was a faint chill on his back......
Li Lin also had similar feelings, this Xiaozhang Village is located in the suburbs, sparsely populated, and at this moment when it is about to fall into the night, there is an inexplicable coldness...... It seems that the haunted theory is not groundless, and this village is really strange.
At that moment, the sound of horses' hooves came from far and near, from behind.
Li Lin turned his head to look, and saw an old Taoist priest in the distance, riding an old horse, slowly riding here, looking at his direction, the destination should also be Xiaozhang Village.
"Two little friends, don't stay here, there are unclean things in this village, please leave quickly. When the old Taoist priest rode to Li Lin and the others, he suddenly rolled off his horse and said lightly.
Li Lin looked at the old Taoist priest, and felt that he didn't have many immortal wind dao bones on his body, and the old Shen aura was quite strong, and he didn't know where he came from.
"Dare to ask the master, what happened in this village?" Li Lin rolled his eyes and followed the words of the old Taoist priest.
Sang Hongfeiyu blinked, not knowing what Li Lin was going to do.
The old Taoist priest shook his head, a little reluctant to explain, but still said: "This village has been haunted for a long time, and the poor road is invited to come to check, if the two little friends are fine, please leave as soon as possible, otherwise it will not be good if something happens to you." β
When Li Lin heard this, he said a little bitterly: "But master, the two of us got lost here, and finally found a village, and it is almost dark this day, we are afraid that it will be dangerous to walk around!"
The old Taoist priest was also a little embarrassed after hearing this, and there was a trace of impatience in his eyes, he thought about it and said: "Forget it, you come in with me, remember, don't touch what you shouldn't touch, don't touch what you shouldn't touch, otherwise the poor road won't be able to save you!"
After finishing speaking, the old Taoist priest directly led his old horse into the village, and he no longer paid attention to Li Lin and Sang Hongfei, and that demeanor could be said to completely regard Li Lin and the two as adding to the chaos.
"Who is that Taoist priest, will he take himself too seriously?" Sang Hongfei whispered behind him, a little dissatisfied.
Li Lin smiled and said: "It seems that he is another 'master of the Dao' who came to subdue demons and subdue demons, so let's follow him and take a look, if he really has the ability, it will be good to solve the trouble for us, but if he is just a half-ass, then let him play the striker for us and see what is strange in this village!"
"You're smart!" Sang Hongfeiyu said amusedly, and then said, "Okay, according to what you said, let's do this." I also think this village is very weird, so it's better to let that Taoist priest find out the bottom for us...... Anyway, the academy didn't say hello to this village, and they didn't know we were coming. β
"That's just right. Li Lin raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Then we will be two passing travelers, go to the village first to find out, if that Taoist priest is not good, it will not be too late for us to make a move." β
"I hope that Taoist priest really has some skills, I always feel that this village is not as simple as we thought......" Sang Hongyu suddenly showed a worried expression.
"It's a blessing or a curse, it's a disaster that can't be avoided!" Li Lin patted Sang Hongyu's shoulder and said, "Let's go, let's go in!"
"Hmm!"
The two followed the old Taoist priest into the village, and not long after they entered the village, the temperature in the air seemed to drop a few more points, and a sense of loneliness became more and more obvious as the sky gradually darkened......
Because there are not many residences in Xiaozhang Village, Li Lin originally thought that the population of this small village was also very small, but after entering, he found that there were about a dozen people in each household, and this base number was also quite considerable, and the whole village was about seventy or eighty people.
But at this time, it was only not long after nightfall, but the whole village seemed to be extremely quiet, and an inexplicable chill filled it, and even Li Lin and the others couldn't help but tighten their skin.
The old Taoist priest was very calm, and observed the environment in the village with a relaxed expression.
In this strange atmosphere, they met the village chief of Xiaozhang Village, a short old man with a slender figure, holding a cane, looking a little weak.
After Li Lin and the others expressed their intentions, the village chief's attitude towards them was also different
He was very respectful to the old Taoist priest, after all, Xiaozhang Village was haunted, although there were already many Taoist priests and monks who had come to see it, but the village chief obviously would not give up any hope.
And because Li Lin and Sang Hongyu did not show the relationship between the signboard of Hongsang Academy, the village chief was a little cold to the two of them, and completely regarded them as passers-by. In fact, this is normal, because at the moment of haunting, the traveler is definitely not as effective as the Taoist priest, and it may even cause chaos, so the village chief's attitude towards Li Lin and Sang Hong Feiyu is lukewarm, at least it can be seen that there is no welcome meaning.
Fortunately, in addition to being a little snubbed, the village chief also arranged accommodation for Li Lin and the others, and lived in the guest room on the second floor of the village chief's house.
There were only a few simple pieces of furniture in the room, but fortunately there were two beds, which made Li Lin and Sang Hongyu breathe a sigh of reliefβat least there would be no embarrassment of squeezing into one bed.
The old Taoist priest was also arranged in another room at the village chief's house, and they were called downstairs to eat together during dinner time.
When walking in the stairwell, the old Taoist priest saw that Li Lin and the two were also there, and he couldn't help but snort through his nose, and it could be seen that he didn't like Li Lin and Sang Hongyu very much.
Sang Hongfei was born noble, when was he put on a face like this?
But dissatisfaction is dissatisfaction, strong self-control still makes Sang Hong Feiyu not act impulsively, if it was Shen Zhen who was present, he would have rushed up and slapped that bull's nose face crookedly!
Li Lin smiled and looked disapproving, but seeing the sly color in his eyes, who knows what he was brewing......
γγγ
This meal was very joyful and stuffy.
