Section 2: Ghost blows the lamp

At noon the next day, the king of Runing was at his house. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoEverything is as usual, the sun is in full bloom, but it can't hide the haze of these days. The servants swept the "snow in front of the door" by themselves, and although they said that they were not caring about the "frost on the tiles" of others, they all secretly snickered in their stomachs. Only one person outside of Wang Dayuan was "dumb and ate coptis, and he couldn't say anything about his bitterness", and he only drank stuffy tea in the hall by himself.

There are two big Ru kiln flower bags on the left and right of the hall, full of white chrysanthemums, the left wall is hung with Mi Fu's "smoke and rain map", and there are several calligraphy and paintings of Zhao Mengfu next to it. On the right hand side of the red sandalwood shelf is placed a large official kiln plate, which contains dozens of delicate yellow and exquisite Buddha hands, and at a glance it is the decoration of the rich and noble home.

"Master, master, great joy, great joy——!" This "great joy" made the old elder happy, Wang Shande shook his left hand, and the teacup in his hand accidentally fell and shattered. He looked unhappy and gently rubbed his ears.

The sound of "joy" did not stop, and a person rushed in from the outside, but he didn't pay attention to the threshold, and fell to the ground all of a sudden, hitting the ground with his forehead, and the word "happy" was replaced by an "ouch".

Wang Yuanwai put down the saucer, stood up, and reprimanded: "Get rich! Is it a death to be so shocked?" I saw that this person was quite tall and had a fair face, but he was only in his forties, but he was already the richest man in Runing.

The housekeeper named Decai hurriedly got up: "Old ...... "I saw that he had short eyebrows and ratish eyes, and his face was very obscene. Wang Yuanwai slapped the table and said, "Hmph, why are you happy?"

"Master, there is a Taoist chief outside the door, who claims to be able to catch demons, and he really has some magic power!" When Wang Shande heard this, he thought: "This is the third one, can it really work?" Although he was worried in his heart, he hurriedly said: "What nonsense is that? Please come in!"

After a while, the housekeeper Decai led one in, and the old man Shande was looking at it, only to see that the man was dressed in green cloth, and his body was almost the same as his own, and he was also white-skinned, with two small beards, and his appearance was very delicate. He wondered in his heart: "This damned rich, without finding out, brought people into the house." This little Taoist priest is only in his twenties, what kind of mana can he have, worthy of that female ghost?" he arched his hand at the moment, but did not speak.

The little mage observed the words and looks, and knew that the other party had contempt, so he said: "Man is the law of the earth, the earth is the law of the sky, the heaven is the law, the Tao is natural, the Tao is always inactive, and nothing is done, and the good is like water." Water is good for all things without fighting, and it is evil for everyone,

Therefore, it is more than the Tao. He paused for a moment, and then said: "The poor Taoist mansion is quite yin, I am afraid that there are sneaky inside, and the staff must be guarded against!"

This Taoist priest is none other than Luo Cailing. She heard the story of the Wang family on the road, and wanted to find out, but when she saw that the Wang family was recruiting magicians, she wanted to pretend to be a Taoist priest.

She is the eldest lady who has been raised in the boudoir since she was a child, and her time is running out of time, and the real Taoist priests have never seen a few, and she wants to pretend at the moment, but she has no way to start. Suddenly, I remembered that when I watched the play "Eight Immortals Across the Sea", I saw that Lu Dongbin was a Taoist priest, so I might as well make a set like him. She was originally petite, so she put wood in her shoes, and she grew a few inches taller out of thin air, and put on a wide robe to hide her breasts. Sticky with a fake beard and carrying a peachwood sword on his back, it looks like it.

It looks like it, but if you are not careful with your words, you are afraid that you will show your feet again. She doesn't like to read since she was a child, but she remembers it very well, so she memorizes a few sentences in the "Tao Te Ching" to it, and doesn't care if the meaning matches or not.

That Wang Shande's face immediately changed, and he said with a smile on his face: "Oh, if you are really a master of the Dao, dare to ask the Fa number?

"Poor Road Law No....... Belch...... That, Dao Okiko, well, Michi Okiko. ”

"Oh! It turned out to be Master Dao Chong!

Cai Ling smiled secretly: "I have admired you for a long time, you are a big-headed ghost, I have heard this name for the first time!" and then tightened his throat and said a few perfunctory words. She only put the book in: "Tao Chong, and use it or not." The first two words of the sentence were truncated, but I didn't know that Dao Chongzi was the name of the seventh generation head of the Wudang faction, although it had been feathered for many years, it still had a reputation in the martial arts. At that time, Luo Cailing had not yet been born, and Luo Sigong and Luo Yangxing rarely talked to her about the affairs of the rivers and lakes, which she had never heard of. Yang Ling or the Wudang Sect are here, they are bound to cry and laugh.

"Xiaodao Chief, please take a seat, get rich, and watch tea!" Wang Shande bowed and said. Cai Ling was not polite, sat down on the upper seat, touched two fake beards, and saw if it was sticky by the way.

Cai Ling took a sip of tea, and said kindly: "This is Yuelu Maojian, what does the Taoist chief think it tastes like?" Luo Cailing saw that he still had the leisure to ask these trivial things at the moment, and laughed secretly in his heart, and unconsciously remembered that when Luo Sigong was still an official in the court, whenever a guest came to the door to watch the tea and chat, he also picked up some irrelevant things, and he had to wait until the tea passed the five flavors before he got down to business.

Wang Shande shook his head when he saw Luo Cailing, and only said that she didn't think the tea was good, and shouted: "Get rich! Don't you go and change the Taoist chief with better tea! Go and go, take the big red robe that I treasure in my study!" Cai Ling sighed: "This kind of grinding and chirping, I don't look like a man anymore, and as an official in the court, there must be so many messy rules? If this is the case, it is better to be inappropriate!"

Luo Cailing was talking to himself, but Wang Shande thought he was trying to ridicule, and hurriedly said: "What the Taoist chief taught is that! Alas, don't hide it from the Taoist, but the luck is not good, there is a harmful demon hidden in the mansion, and I hope that the Taoist will do well, and he will cast a spell and surrender, which must be a merit." Cai Ling came back to his senses: "Ah? exactly. ”

At that moment, Wang Shande briefly described the supernatural things that happened a few days ago, which was not much different from what the old farmer of the tea house said, and only added a few words of hatred from time to time. Cai Ling bowed slightly, Wang Shande took out the third black letter and handed it to her, and the remaining three had been burned by him.

Cai Ling read: "If you don't do evil, you will be punished again and again, and it is good to donate the rich to the poor." She saw that the black letter was ordinary letterhead, and smelled the ink, and was even more sure that this "female ghost" must be disguised by someone else, and the original little worry was also swept away, and said with a smile: "This 'ghost' is not like a few days ago, writing down specific things." ”

Wang Shande said: "That's right! This is even more of a headache, obviously, this female ghost is afraid that Xiao Ke can be prepared for this." Cai Ling smiled secretly: "If it's really a female ghost, how can you guard against it? You must have offended some martial arts person, but it's not easy to ask you openly." She coughed and said, "Where did this letter come from?"

"This letter was found on the table of Xiao Ke's study, and I had not seen it the day before yesterday, but it was available early yesterday morning. Wang Yuanwai put his hands together, obviously a little nervous, for fear that the little Taoist priest would say: "Alas, this matter is difficult to do." "If he doesn't have the mana to subdue demons, how will he spend the next few days?

Cai Ling rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "It's not difficult for outsiders to break this black letter, there is a method in the trail, and it will definitely work." Wang Shande hurriedly asked: "Please also ask the Taoist chief for advice!"

"And according to what was said in the first letter, take a thousand taels of silver from the treasury, and build a rice barn and an embankment, so as to ensure that the calamity is eliminated, and the fifth black letter will never be seen. ”

Wang Yuanwai was displeased: "Is this a pastime?" Cai Ling saw him flick his sleeves, and obviously said: "If you have no other way, I will invite you out." ”

She had to put down the teacup, snorted, and said with a smile: "Since the staff is unwilling, then Xiaodao can only linger in your mansion for a few days, and cast a spell to catch this demon." "If the Taoist is willing to cast a spell, he will catch this demon, and the reward of gold and silver will definitely be expensive!" Wang Shande immediately turned his smile.

Cai Ling got up and went to the mansion to patrol the mansion, and Wang Shande ordered the steward to get money with him.

"Dao Chief, I don't know what magic weapon you want for the old demon hunter? Decai smiled all over his face, and only one slit was revealed in a pair of rat eyes.

"What is that?"

Decai was stunned for a moment and said: "It's the Taoist Chief's talisman, like your wooden sword, and the black dog's blood, could it be that the Taoist doesn't need a magic weapon to catch that monster?"

Luo Cailing hurriedly said: "Ah, ah, that's it, it's these things, what you want!" She saw that Cai was still listening to the instructions on her side, and hurriedly gestured and said: "What magic weapons are used by the first few mages, you can get me a copy according to their examples." Decai said, "Okay! The little ones will do it." Then he went out immediately. Cai Ling exhaled and said in his heart: "It's so dangerous, I almost broke the diorama." ”

She looked around the palace, but found nothing unusual. Dinner was eaten at Wang's house, and the fish abalone and swallow fin were extremely rich. After everyone had eaten, Wang Yuanwai invited Cai Ling to go to Mrs. Wang's room to exorcise demons. Mrs. Wang was still bedridden at the moment, Cai Lingzhi was overly frightened, and she didn't say anything, and her mouth was "as urgent as a law", and she waved the peach wood sword twice at will, and let her recuperate with the prescription prescribed by the previous doctor. Young Master Wang's leg bone was broken, but it was a wound. After the "practice" was completed, Shande asked her to go to the backyard to cast a spell to catch the demon, Luo Cailing knew that she couldn't push it off, so she could only bite the bullet.

Decai prepared the table and incense candles, and Wang Yuanwai also worked with four or five family members to see the "Dao Chong" master cast spells and take demons. After the spirit bath, put on the robe, it was almost the hour, the night was slightly dark, and the backyard only heard the sound of rustling footsteps, and from time to time you could hear sporadic insect chirping.

Luo Cailing stood on the stage, only to see that Decai had prepared three plates of fruits, three teas, and wine, and put them on the shrine, which lit incense candles on the left and right, and put pen and ink, cinnabar, yellow paper and other things. There were two or three buckets of dog blood on the left and right of the table. Cai Ling covered his nose, and saw that there was a gossip mirror and a big gourd on the table, so he couldn't help but pick it up and shake it, and asked, "Hey, what's in this gourd?"

Shande and the others were stunned: "The gourd is naturally filled with water, can it be that your yellow rune paper doesn't need to be dipped in water to cast spells?" Cai Ling saw their expressions, and knew that he had asked something that he shouldn't have asked again, so he hurriedly changed the topic: "Ahem, everything is ready, so don't talk too much, wait for Xiaodao to draw the talisman." ”

Everyone saw her holding the pen and staying in the air for a while, as if she didn't know how to get down, and when the ink on the tip of the pen dripped onto the yellow paper, the corners of her mouth were slightly upturned, and then she brushed and brushed straight to the ground, and said in her heart: "At a glance, it is more powerful! The pen is skillful, and it is not as slow as the previous ones." "How do they know how Luo Cailing can draw talismans? She just dipped in ink and scribbled at random, crossed a few strokes, and put it up a few vertically, and it became a sheet. She drew three pictures, smiled "hee-hee", and unconsciously drew a big turtle on the fourth one, and wrote the word "Cui Duo" on the turtle shell.

This Cui Duo is the only son of Cui Chengxiu, the secretary of the Ministry of War, and it is said that he is Luo Cailing's "fiancé", but his husband did not do it, but first became Miss Luo's little turtle.

Luo Cailing was about to paint again, when suddenly there were a few soft sounds, and the lanterns in the hands of several family members and the red candles on the table were all extinguished. Decai knocked over the barrel and cried out, "The ghost is coming!!!" and the crowd scattered and fled back to their rooms.

After all, Cai Ling is only a sixteen-year-old young girl, although she was sure that this "female ghost" must be a martial arts person disguised, but she has never seen it with her own eyes, at this time, the surroundings are dim, everyone is scattered, and there seem to be a few extremely subtle yin laughter left and right, and her heart is pounding unconsciously.

Tonight, the moon did not rise, only a faint starlight, she took out the fire fold from her arms, prepared to light the red candle on the case, and suddenly caught a glimpse of her shadow on the ground, and there was a shadow on the side of the shadow! Cai Ling was always from a martial arts background, and immediately turned around, just waiting for a palm. When I turned around, I saw that the shadow was dressed in white and hung on the ground, with a cloak spread out, and was slowly raising its head......

"Ahh It wasn't a human face, it was definitely a ghost face, that face was full of scars, and a line of blood flowed from each of the two pupils, and the most terrible thing was that the grimace was actually smiling and laughing at her!
