Chapter 17: The Strange House
Song Shuyang came back to his senses for a long time, he smiled awkwardly, and also gave Jiang Li a salute.
"Dao friendly, I am Maoshan Song Shuyang. ”
Jiang Li grinned, walked straight to Song Shuyang's side and sat down, "Daoyou is also going down the mountain to practice?"
"Exactly, Daoist friends don't know, my cultivation is not as good as that of my senior brothers and sisters, so my master naturally pays less attention to me. No, I found a reason to drive away this female ghost, and went down the mountain. Fortunately, this female ghost can't leave this house, otherwise Qinghe County is afraid that it will be chaotic. Song Shuyang said, thinking of his own situation, and looked helpless, "Even if there is no female ghost, I will find an excuse to go down the mountain." I knew very well that I couldn't learn anything in the gate, so I simply traveled down the mountain, and maybe I could improve my cultivation. I just didn't expect this female ghost to be so strong, I'm not an opponent, after all, we are good at zombies in Maoshan. ”
In fact, it is the same in any sect, and those who are masters naturally pay a lot of attention to outstanding disciples.
However, Taiyiguan does not exist in these ways, who let them have only one lone seedling Jiang Li as a successor?
Jiang Li could instantly understand Song Shuyang's status in Maoshan, and it seemed that his status was indeed not high. The sword he used before was just an ordinary magic weapon, slightly rough.
"I see, then this terrible ghost has been solved, and Daoyou can go back to his life. ”
"That's right. Song Shuyang stood up, suddenly remembered something, and he asked again, "I saw Daoyou's move before, and I found that Daoyou's skills are not bad, and the Dao methods used are all things I have never seen before, I don't know where You's teacher is?"
Jiang Li nodded and smiled slightly, but he didn't hide it.
"That is indeed the gate of the underworld, as for the door of my teacher, please forgive me for not being able to tell you, this is the door rule of this gate. ”
Song Shuyang nodded in understanding. Many sects are hidden in the world and act in a low-key manner, but they have a deep background and many rules, and no one usually knows about them.
Song Shuyang waved his hand, "It's okay, you don't have to mind, the time is almost up, I have to go back to my life, and there will be a period later." ”
"There will be a period later. Jiang Li also got up to say goodbye.
The two went out from the old mansion, one left and one right, and no one looked back, they only thought it was an episode.
......
Jiang Li went all the way south, and after more than ten days, the broken silver he got from Jia Lin was almost used.
It seems that you have to make a living.
Just when Jiang Li didn't know what to do, a notice on the side of the street caught his attention.
The above content is very simple, there is a strange thing in the family of a rich man, and they want to ask a Taoist priest to help deal with it.
The specific content was not said, but an address was left for people to go.
Jiang Li thought about it, he was completely suitable to deal with things, he was originally an onmyoji and a Taoist priest, and he just ran out of money.
It's better to act than to be moved, Jiang Li determined the address, and asked all the way.
When he arrived at the location on the notice, Jiang Li found that the family was quite rich, and the house was quite large.
However, compared to the Taishi Mansion, it is still a little worse, after all, people are the Taishi of the Dynasty, and the level is different.
"This big brother, I read the notice to solve the problem. Jiang Li walked to the door and said to the nursing courtyard standing in front of the door.
The nurse looked at Jiang Li, saw that he was young, and thought that he was taking over the work for the master, so he led him in.
"Little Daoist, let me tell you, there are too many Taoist priests who have come these days, and none of them have solved the problem in the end, and they are all injured and go back, you have to be careful. ”
If it weren't for Jiang Li's young age, the nursing home wouldn't have said such a word.
Jiang Li smiled and nodded, "Thank you, big brother." ”
After leading the person to the front hall, the nursing courtyard introduced, "Master, this is the Taoist who has come to deal with things." ”
"Okay, you go down first, and I'll talk to this Taoist leader. The middle-aged fat man walked over from above and waved his hand.
"Yes, sir. "The Guardian was ordered to go down.
The middle-aged fat man circled around Jiang Li several times, looked at Jiang Li seriously, and then spoke.
"Little Taoist, the contemptible surname is Liu, you can call me Master Liu, I don't know what you are capable of, after all, a Taoist like you has come a lot these days. Simply, I won't say much, explain the reason to you, if you can solve it, I will be grateful. ”
Jiang Li bowed slightly, "I would like to hear the details." ”
Seeing that Jiang Li was talking extraordinary, Master Liu had some expectations for him in his heart, so he said slowly.
"Here's the thing, a few days ago I bought a house and took my whole family to a mountain villa to escape the heat. Unexpectedly, there were a few screams in the night, and several people died. Their death was terrible, with all the blood drained from all over their bodies, and there were two bloody holes in their necks, and their whole bodies were shriveled.
Later, during the day, the subordinates were more bold, and they searched everywhere for deliberate places, and found a well in the backyard, full of blood.
I was worried about something dirty, so I asked a few Taoist priests to look at it, hoping to solve this trouble.
I knew that after the taxi went, he was either seriously injured or didn't come back, and I was a little scared.
Originally, I was going to seal the courtyard, but I still hoped that it could be solved, so I sent a notice, guessing that someone could solve it. ”
After listening to Master Liu's narration, Jiang Xuan already had a general understanding.
"Master Liu, did the movement in the well in the backyard a few days ago stop after the rooster crows?"
Master Liu's expression became serious after brushing it, it seems that this little Taoist priest is young, but he has some skills.
"What the Taoist chief said is true, this strange thing is strange here, but whenever the rooster crows, all the movement stops. ”
"I know, please ask Master Liu to send someone to take me to have a look. "There is already a spectrum in the river centrifugation.
After agreeing, Jiang Li had dinner in Liu's mansion and went to the strange mansion.
It was already approaching dusk, and the afterglow stretched the shadow of the willow tree behind the courtyard of the yard.
Jiang Li is alone in this courtyard, no matter what he does, no one cares about him, but he is very comfortable.
He looked around, walked to the willow tree at the back of the yard, circled the willow tree three times, and then returned to the yard, looking at the dead poplar tree in the yard, frowning slightly.
"Who built this place, and why is there no common sense at all, and such a tree is planted behind the yard?"
When people plant trees in their residences, they are very particular about tree species, as the saying goes: "Don't plant mulberry in front, don't plant willows in the back, and don't plant ghosts and clap hands in the courtyard."
"Mulberry" is connected with "mourning", and planting mulberry in front of the house will be "mourning" in advance; if the willow tree does not bear seeds, there will be no male offspring when the willow tree is planted behind the house.
The poplar tree will run out of wealth when it encounters the wind, and the leaves of the poplar tree will rattle like a "ghost" clapping their hands.
These trees, planted incorrectly, are unlucky. Dead trees are not allowed in the courtyard, believing that dead trees are a sign of the death of a family member.
Therefore, when the tree in the garden is dead, it must be immediately uprooted and planted with a new tree.
