Chapter 42: The Soul of the Three Sons

Mu Bangxiang suddenly had a very bad premonition, don't look at Li Yan is not serious on weekdays, but it is still quite reliable to do things, it is the first time she has seen Li Yan show such an expression, it seems that this matter is much more tricky than imagined.

On the other side, Li Yan heard that the Taoist priest was invited by the Rong family, so he secretly sneaked into the courtyard where the Rong family was.

The lights in Rong's house were still on, and occasionally some fragmentary words could be heard coming out of it, Li Yan lay on the roof, looked down secretly, and really saw a Taoist priest wearing a gray Taoist robe, he waved the peachwood sword in his hand, and there were words in his mouth.

As for the Rong family, he knelt on the ground with a group of maids and grandmothers reverently, and kept chanting: "Heavenly Spirit, Heavenly Spirit, I ask the gods of heaven to bless my son to be reincarnated in the next life, find a good family, and don't suffer like this again." ”

After chattering for half a night, the Taoist priest lit a lamp and handed it to Rong, instructing her to make sure that the lamp was on, and then quietly left the house through the west gate.

Li Yan came back to his senses at this time, this Taoist priest quietly entered and quietly came out, no wonder he was not discovered.

The Taoist priest swept the heavy silver in his hand, smiled and walked towards the Qinglou restaurant near Qingyu Street.

Li Yan quietly followed, waiting for the right time to start.

Suddenly, the Taoist priest sat on a noodle stall at the mouth of the alley and shouted to the boss, "Bring me a Yangchun noodle." ”

"Okay!" The boss answered, and then quickly put the noodles into the boiling water.

At this moment, Li Yan walked to the Taoist priest's table, and the dagger he carried with him was against the neck of the Taoist priest: "Don't move, you will answer whatever I ask." ”

The Taoist priest immediately panicked: "Good man, take whatever you want, don't kill me." ”

"Tell me, what exactly did you do in the Wu Mansion?" Li Yan asked.

"The third young master of the Wu family was poisoned to death, and Mrs. Rong asked me to do it and pray for the third young master." The Taoist priest hurriedly replied.

Li Yan moved the dagger slightly, and the sharp blade slashed through the skin, cutting out a bloodstain, and the slight stinging pain made the Taoist priest's face change.

"I'll give you one last chance, hurry up and tell me what the hell is going on?"

The wound on his neck reminded the Taoist priest that the man in front of him was very cruel.

"Alright! I'm just a charlatan, I want to eat in Wu's mansion, but I cheated Mrs. Rong out of a little money, and I really didn't do anything. ”

"Old slippery head, it seems that he can't ask. I'll be honest with you, I know that you have collected all the souls of the Wu Mansion in one place. Li Yan was deceiving him, so he deliberately said this, wanting to see the Taoist priest's expression.

Sure enough, when the Taoist priest heard Li Yan say this, his face immediately changed greatly, and his face was full of stunned expressions: "How do you know?" ”

The bet was right, Li Yan said with a smile: "I was born with yin and yang eyes, and when I was in Wu Mansion, I didn't see a ghost, so I suspected that something was wrong." It just so happened that a Taoist priest like you appeared again, and after thinking about it, I felt that it must have something to do with you, so I followed you all the way. Say, what the hell do you know? ”

Providence! The Taoist priest originally thought that this kind of thing was very secretive, but he never expected to meet someone with yin and yang eyes, and it seems that he couldn't hide this time.

"That's right, I did catch all the ghosts."

Li Yan asked, "Who instructed you to do this?" ”

"I don't know." The Taoist priest replied.

"It seems that you are even more dishonest than I thought." Li Yan waved his dagger, and when he stopped, pieces of clothes fell to the ground, and the robes on the Taoist priest were already tattered, "If you don't say it again, I don't mind cutting off the flesh on your body piece by piece." ”

"I say, I'll say anything." Where had the Taoist priest seen this kind of posture, he immediately spit out everything he knew, "There is a woman who didn't know where she heard that I could lock the soul of the spell, she specially found me and asked me to go to the Wu Mansion to catch all the ghosts, especially the ghosts of the three young masters. Then nail their souls with soul nails, and they will not be able to live forever. ”

Woman? Li Yan frowned, and continued to ask, "Can you draw that woman's face?" ”

The Taoist priest shook his head: "That woman is very cautious, every time she sees me, it is at night, and she is dressed in black clothes all over, and she can't see her face clearly at all." ”

didn't even let go of death, can you imagine how much this woman hates Wu Jiayou?

It seems that this murderer is undoubtedly the enemy of the Wu family, but I don't know who caused the trouble.

Li Yan glanced at the noodle stall owner who was standing not far away, shaking like chaff: "Bring the noodles up." ”

The boss walked over tremblingly with the noodles in his hand, and ran away after putting them down.

Li Yan sat on the bench, crossed Erlang's legs, and snorted and ate noodles.

The Taoist priest standing on the side saw that there was an opportunity, he turned around and ran quickly, and after running a few steps, he saw a chopstick flying sideways and hitting his knee directly.

With a "plop", the Taoist priest knelt on the ground firmly, and the severe pain made his facial features become hideous.

The Taoist priest didn't dare to run away after being killed, so he could only staggered back: "Hero, I have told you everything I know, just let me go!" ”

Li Yan didn't pay attention, but ate the noodles to his heart's content, and in a moment, the coarse porcelain bowl had bottomed out, and he stretched out his hand to the Taoist priest.

After hesitating for a moment, the Taoist priest still obediently took out the money bag he had just received, Li Yan accepted it, opened it and took out a piece of broken silver from it and gave it to the stall owner, and then left with the Taoist priest.

The Taoist priest had a bitter face: "What else do you want me to do?" ”

"Tomorrow I will go to Mrs. Rong to recite the scriptures as usual, and pretend that nothing happened, and I can still save your life. If you can't figure it out, go to that woman and scare the snake, then I guarantee that you won't be able to get along in Wudong Mansion. Li Yan was relieved to hide the money bag in his wide sleeves to make sure that Mu Bangxiang would not find it.

The Taoist priest looked at Li Yan with a frightened face: "Who are you?" ”

"This is not your business, do what I say obediently, and keep you fine." Li Yan said again, "Hurry up and release all the ghosts in the Wu Mansion." ”

You can't beat it, you can't run away.

The Taoist priest gave up the struggle completely, he took out a small black jar from his arms, uncovered the yellow rune paper on it, and recited many incantations.

After a burst of green smoke, many ghosts came out, among them was Wu Ze's, and the souls of the other two young masters of the Wu family were very thin.

Li Yan glared at the Taoist priest: "What the hell is going on?" ”

The Taoist priest hurriedly explained: "The souls of the two sons were already very weak, and then they were nailed for a period of time, which hurt the roots, and it took a while to recover. ”

It seems that he can only believe him, Li Yan doesn't understand these spells, he glanced at Wu Ze's soul: "Third Young Master, do you remember how you died?" ”

Wu Ze shook his head: "After I was drunk that day, I went to the barbecue restaurant to eat barbecue, and then I went home, and as soon as I entered the courtyard gate, I felt a cramping pain in my heart, and then I lost consciousness, and then I didn't know what happened." ”
