Chapter 49: The Taoist Priest
The figure with the golden light was fierce, and because it was so close, I didn't have time to see it clearly, and Zhuo Ran shouted "Be careful!" He was in front of me, and the next second, I heard him shout "ouch" and was about to fall backwards.
I hurriedly caught him, and saw that it was a Taoist dressed in gold with black piping robes and holding a peachwood sword just now.
Seeing that the Taoist who had stabbed the wrong person hurriedly accepted the peachwood sword, he bowed to Zhuo Ran again and again and apologized: "I'm sorry...... Sorry ......"
"Son, are you alright?" Xu hurriedly came over to see his son.
Zhuo Ran covered his chest, stood up straight, and said, "Dao Leader is a cultivator, how can he hurt people at will!" ”
I broke Zhuo Ran's hand and touched the place where he was stabbed, but fortunately, the skin and flesh were not hurt.
Moving my eyes back to the Taoist priest, I said sharply: "Where did the Jianghu warlock come from, pretending to be a ghost here, and still wanting to hurt people, see if I don't teach you a lesson!" ”
The Taoist priest didn't speak, and suddenly felt out Zhang Fu from his chest, and instantly strung it on the peachwood sword. Interestingly, the talisman was still on fire.
He said something in his mouth, and suddenly pointed his peachwood sword at me.
Zhuo Ran behind me took a step back, I didn't understand why he was protecting me everywhere, did he already know my identity?
Before I could think about it, the Taoist priest suddenly threw the still burning talisman paper at me.
I raised my hand to remove the talisman paper, snatched the peachwood sword from the Taoist priest's hand, and raised my hand to draw it on himself.
The Taoist priest was beaten by me and jumped up, and shouted in his mouth: "This demon Dao is too high, and the poor Dao can't do anything, Miss Yi should ask another Gao Ming." ”
After saying that, the soles of his feet were smeared with oil and he ran away.
Yi Zhihua was so anxious that she jumped to her feet and shouted, "Alas, Dao Chief, you can't just leave......"
Looking at the Taoist priest in the distance, I secretly cursed, secretly pinched the trick, and cast a spell to mix him up, which was cheap for him.
"You see, he can't walk steadily, and he still collects demons. I'm telling you, it's useless to invite anyone, and I'm not a demon. I pointed to the Taoist priest who had just gotten up and said to Yi Zhihua.
"I don't believe it, I'll ask a more powerful mage to take you in." Yi Zhihua stomped her feet hatefully.
"Okay, I'll wait for you!" I say.
Yi Zhihua trembled and walked away from me from a distance with the help of the maid.
Throwing down the peachwood sword in my hand, I thought to myself, you still want to accept me at this level. The reason why I am not afraid of these things, this is thanks to Qianfan, after he took me to Cangshan, all the spells practiced are immortal methods, and over time, although they are not immortals, they are also integrated into them, so naturally they don't have to be afraid of these evil things.
"Xiao Li...... Ms. Yi...... Did you make all those strange things? ”
Behind me, Xu asked me.
I turned around and smiled gently: "Mother, do you really believe her, do you think I look like a demon?" ”
Xu's eyes looked me up and down several times, and then he said, "No, will the demon be so kind to help us?" ”
I looked at Zhuo Ran, who was still clutching his chest, and said, "How are you, do you have a lot of pain?" ”
"It's okay, it's okay."
After Zhuo Ran said that it was okay for two times, he put down the hand covering his chest.
"There's medicinal wine in the house, let's go in and wipe it off." Xu said.
"Then let's go in."
The three of them went to the gate one after another, and at the gate, I tore off a piece of talisman paper from the top of the gate. When I got inside, I couldn't laugh or cry, and there was one on almost every door.
Xu went to get the medicinal wine, I tore them off one by one, and said to Zhuo Ran: "This surnamed Yi is too good at making trouble, and he will treat it as his own home before he has passed the door." ”
"Isn't it sooner or later?"
Xu Shi came back from looking for medicine and wine, and just heard my words, and after speaking, he seemed to feel that he was speaking too straight, and said: "Daughter-in-law, this man should have three wives and four concubines, and you should get along well in the future." ”
I nodded, "Don't worry, I won't mind." ”
"That's good, the family and everything is prosperous, and then it will depend on you in the future." Xu finished smiling and began to help Zhuo Ran rub the medicinal wine.
At night, as soon as Zhuo Ran entered the room, I grabbed him and asked, "Do you know anything?" ”
Zhuo Ran was at a loss: "What do you know?" ”
"I know......" I almost said that I knew my identity, but after thinking about it, I changed the way I knocked on the corner: "Why do you block the sword for me?" ”
"Even though the sword is made of wood, it still hurts to stab it." Zhuo Ran said.
I see. Then I asked a realistic question: "What would happen to you if I were a real demon?" ”
"If it's really a demon, that's better than a human."
Zhuo Ran's answer was beyond my expectations, but could he really not be afraid? I haven't seen it, so I'm not afraid.
"What do you mean, you think I'm a demon!" I couldn't help but tease him.
"No, I'm just using an analogy." Zhuo Ran explained.
"Thank you for blocking that sword for me today." I sincerely thanked him, although nothing would happen if he couldn't stop it, but his heart really touched me at that time.
When the moon's bright light faded, dawn came. I got up early in the morning, made a breakfast with the ingredients I had, and finished eating, and went out with the silver ticket I borrowed yesterday.
When I came to the restaurant that was about to change hands, as soon as I entered the door, the owner recognized me as soon as he saw me.
"Girl, you're here."
"Eight hundred taels for you, but we have to prove it?" I took out eight hundred taels of silver tickets.
The owner looked at the silver ticket in my hand and said, "That's good." Then I saw him take out the paper, ink, pen, and inkstone from the counter, study the ink, spread the paper, dip it in ink, and write on the paper, and he wrote for a long time, and asked my name in the middle.
When the shopkeeper finished writing, I took it and looked at it, and it was about the same.
"Girl, you can put this away. I'll pack it up now and leave in a moment. Said the owner.
"Okay." I nodded, and walked around the building alone, planning in my heart.
Whether it is a box or a hall, this building is spacious and bright, the only regret is that there is no eye-catching scenery outside except for the street or street, but as a place to eat, these are not so important.
After walking around the building for a while, I felt that the layout of the first and second floors did not need to be moved, but the original tables here were all square, and he sat on a long bench. I need to replace the square table with a round one and the stool with a chair. In addition, you need to add some potted plants.
Seeing that the original owner of the house had left, I closed the door and fastened it, chanted spells, cast spells, and transformed the whole house into a new look, the square table became a round table, the stools were all turned into back chairs, and some potted plants were changed in the corners where they were needed.
I looked around again and was quite satisfied.
By the way, the owner said there was an ice cellar here, and I had to check it out. But where is the entrance?
After searching for a long time, I found the entrance to the ice cellar in the back kitchen. It's just that the cave is dark and feels eerie, so don't go down.
The interior has been done, everything else is done, the door is closed and locked, and I will go back to Zhuo's house.
"Xiao Li, where have you been, who hasn't seen you for most of the day?"
When I entered the door, Xu asked when he saw me.
"I just went outside for a spin." I say.
"Xiao Li, it's not my mother who said you, you're a woman's family, don't keep running outside to show your face......"
I'm speechless, how can I get married and even lose the most basic freedom, no wonder I say that marriage is a cage. Fortunately, Zhuo Ran and I are not real husband and wife, otherwise how would we live such a life. It was so horrible that I couldn't help but shrug my shoulders.
"What do you mean, isn't what my mother said wrong?" Xu's voice burst into my ears, and I realized that she seemed to be saying something when I was in the fugue just now, but I didn't hear it......
