A few days later, I finally recovered, and Locke's Village returned to normalcy. After that day, Luo Hongxuan returned to the purple jade box, and I also went to see Luo Qiaoyu and learned the final fate of the witch mother-in-law. A qiē dust returns to dust, and soil returns to earth.

I looked at the villagers who worked at sunrise and rested at sunset.

They didn't know that Luojia Village had ushered in a century-old catastrophe before, and they didn't know that the wandering spirits that had been floating in the mountains and forests behind them disappeared overnight, and they didn't know that the witch who had been guarding their village had disappeared overnight and disappeared between the heavens and the earth.

I feel emotional, but I don't want to spread the word about it, so let's let it end with the departure of the shrine maiden!

On this day, at the entrance of Luojia Village, on the road leading to the outside world, a pair of traveling people ushered in. One big and one small, one old and one young, the old man was dressed in a shabby robe, and his gray hair was tied in a bun on the top of his head, which was raised with a thin wooden branch.

He held a rattle bell in one hand and shook it as he went, leaving a crisp sound on the empty mountain road. The other hand holds a flag, and the eight characters on it are written "for the heavens, catch ghosts and eliminate demons", which has the taste of a warlock swaggering through the market.

Lao Dao was carrying a blanket on his back, followed by a little Taoist boy, walking slowly on the mountain road, leisurely, and did not look like he was in a hurry.

The little Taoist boy behind him was not as relaxed as him, carrying a big burden on his back, panting and walking, stopping from time to time to rest.

"Master, the front is Luojia Village, right?" Xiao Daotong asked the old Tao in front.

"Well, yes, it's almost there! Alas, I haven't been here for 30 years, and it still hasn't changed much! Lao Dao looked at the lush mountains and forests and the layers of mountains, and couldn't help but sigh.

Xiao Daotong didn't care about Lao Dao's emotion, and continued to ask: "Master, why did we come here over the mountains and mountains?" ”

He wiped the sweat from his head and helped the bag on his back, and was very resentful of walking such a long mountain road.

"Bang", Xiao Daotong's head was rewarded with a shudder, "Didn't I tell you that I was going to visit an old friend as a teacher?" ”

"Master, you're beating me again!" Xiao Daotong immediately hugged his little head that was hurt and shouted in a strange voice.

"Hmph, who called you so stupid, I have to ask about you after telling sù!" Lao Dao said with a grim face.

At this moment, a woodcutter with a load of firewood on his shoulder was coming towards them.

When Lao Dao saw someone coming, he greeted him, "This little brother, please wait a minute!" ”

Luo Hongyan stopped, looked at the old way, and saw that the old way was dusty, as if he had come from afar.

Luo Hongyan wondered in his heart, Luojia Village is located in the middle of nowhere, and in the mountains, it is very rare for outsiders to come here. Besides, he was still a wandering Taoist priest, which made him even more puzzled, but although he was puzzled, he obediently stopped and looked at the old Tao.

"Little brother, dare to ask if the front is Luojia Village?" Lao Dao saw Luo Hongyan stop, so he asked politely.

Luo Hongyan smiled honestly and said, "Exactly, may I ask where the chief came from?" ”

Lao Dao nodded and said: "Lao Dao is a Taoist priest who travels to the square, taking the little apprentices through your place, and wants to find a family to rest!" ”

"Hehe, then you are the right one, our mountain people are very hospitable, you will be invited to rest when you knock on any door in the village!" Luo Hongyan said.

"That's great, thank you little brother!" Thank you.

"Where, the Taoist chief is invited!" Luo Hongyan said, turned sideways to make way for the old road, and said: "I still have to rush out of the mountain to trade, so I won't accompany the Taoist to go in!" ”

"Okay, little brother, you're busy!" Lao Dao said, and walked towards Luojia Village with his apprentice.

Luo Hongyan looked at the backs of the two of them in the distance, thoughtful. After a moment, he shook his head and put away his doubts and walked down the mountain.

After a while, the two of them had already walked to the east of Luojia Village.

"Master, it's finally here!" Xiao Daotong wiped his sweat.

"Well, let's take a break!" Lao Tao said.

Under the old locust tree, the door of the small courtyard squeaked at this time, opened, and I walked out. I came out to see when I heard them talking.

When the two masters and apprentices saw me coming out, they hurriedly greeted me.

"Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable, this female benefactor, the poor road is so polite!" The old road stepped forward and saluted.

"The Taoist is polite!" When I saw that the visitor was so polite, I returned the courtesy.

"Female donor, the poor Taoist master and apprentice are passing here, and their mouths are dry, I don't know if I can go in and ask for a bowl of water to drink?" After the two of them finished saluting, Lao Dao asked.

"Heh, of course you can, the two Taoist elders hurry up and please!" I hurriedly turned sideways, opened the fence door wider, and invited them in.

As soon as the two of them stepped into the courtyard, I invited them to sit down at the stone table, and I turned back to the house to prepare tea.

Lao Dao put down the rattle in his hand, leaned the flag against the stone table again, and then turned his head to look around, looking at the surrounding environment.

The little Taoist priest put down the big burden he was carrying, stretched out his hand to make a fan, fanned the wind a few times, and saw his master looking around and asked curiously: "Master, what are you looking at?" ”

"Shh Lao Dao stretched out his hand and made a silent movement, "Apprentice, do you feel that the yin qi here is very heavy?" He asked the little Taoist priest softly.

"No, no!" When Xiao Daotong saw that the master suddenly said this, he couldn't help but be a little scared in his heart.

"Smack!" Another burst of chestnuts hit him on the head, "Make you not study weekdays!" When the book is used, there is less hatred, just like you, how to stand alone in the future! Lao Dao rebuked in a deep voice.

"Master!" Xiao Daotong covered his head that was knocked and screamed infinitely aggrieved: "Isn't there still you here?" ”

Lao Dao didn't care about his complaints, and snorted and said: "Look at this old locust tree, the shade is luxuriant, although there is a slight chill under the scorching sun, the locust tree is originally yin-loving, and the locust tree with such a growth will know that it is a hundred-year-old tree at a glance, and it is the favorite thing of ghosts." The yin energy of this tree is condensed, and there must be yin spirits gathered! ”

Xiao Daotong's face changed greatly when he heard this, he was still in the shade of the tree, but he had already fled at this moment, looking at the old locust tree in fear.

Lao Dao pointed to the main house and said: "There is also this main house, the house is too dark, the yin qi is too heavy, and it is easy to attract evil spirits; The house that is still dark in the house with the windows open during the day is a place where the yin energy is too strong and the yang energy is insufficient. If you look closely at this house, the yin atmosphere is so strong, there must be ghosts hiding in it. ”

Seeing that the master said this, Xiao Daotong's look of fear became heavier, and he came over and pulled Lao Dao's sleeve and said, "Master, then, let's go quickly." ”

"What are you afraid of!" Lao Dao raised his hand and slapped him on the head again, "I'm still afraid of a promising teacher!" ”

"It's you, so you have to be afraid!" Xiao Daotong covered his head and muttered softly.
