As he spoke, Uncle Zhang, the old farmer, put the repaired farm tools back in their place. Shi Yijian handed over another cigarette and asked him if he could take him to see where the black shadow came out of it and hurt people. After Uncle Zhang took the cigarette, he stood up and took the three of them directly to the scene of the crime.

He pointed to a dilapidated hut not far away: "It was dark, I was far away, I couldn't see clearly, and that black thing seemed to have come out of that place all at once." ”

The fat man interjected, "What is that place for, it's all broken like this." ”

"You young people from big cities, it's rare and weird, that place used to be used to raise pigs, but now no one raises them, so it's naturally like this."

Zhang Bo lit a cigarette and swallowed the smoke on the side with a full aftertaste.

Shi Yijian followed the direction of Uncle Zhang's finger, walked to the door of the pigsty, and looked at it, only to see that it was full of messy things, rotten tables and chairs, broken jars, old bowls and basins, and some cement and sand powder piled up at random.

Shi Yijian took out a dragon-seeking ruler that was some years old from his shoulder bag and held it in his hand, only to see that after the ruler needle shook twice, the pointer fell on the side of the pigsty.

Although this dragon ruler is not as tall as the golden compass, it is very sensitive to some abnormal things, in ancient times, the ancestors often used it to find ore veins, find water sources, point tombs, and even divination, find lost property, break good luck and so on.

At that time, in Lao Zhang's house, Shi Yijian also used the characteristics of the dragon ruler to measure every corner of the room one by one, and only then did he dare to conclude that the house where the old couple lived did not hide dirty things, and now that they think about it, this dirty thing is hidden in the abandoned pigsty outside their house. So he asked the fat man to take out the contents one by one and inspect them to see what was hidden inside.

The fat man looked at the debris piled up like a hill, and his face changed instantly, but under Shi Yijian's obscenity, he had no choice but to start doing hard work in despair.

Shi Yijian saw that the scorching sun on the horizon had sunset, so he walked to Uncle Zhang's side, took out five hundred-yuan bills and two packs of cigarettes from his satchel, and handed them to Uncle Zhang: "Uncle Zhang, there is some money here, I want to have a light meal with you tonight, I don't know if it's okay?" ”

Uncle Zhang, the old farmer, is an honest man, he saw that so much money was enough for several meals, so he hurriedly excused himself: "Eh, how can this be, you are Mr. Yin and Yang, come to catch ghosts and exorcise evil spirits for us, let alone a meal, it is Tiantian hand over, it's too late for me to welcome, how can I collect your money, this is going to be passed out, people will definitely laugh at the old man and I am obsessed with money." ”

Just when the two of you pushed me, Li Tong grabbed the money and cigarettes in Shi Yijian's hand, and stuffed them into Uncle Zhang's hand without saying anything, saying: "Uncle Zhang, just take it, these are your lost work expenses, if you don't collect it, we will go out to eat tonight, which will delay the work." ”

"You Nizi, that's okay, if you don't dislike me for being sloppy, then you will have a light meal." As he spoke, Uncle Zhang stuffed the money and cigarettes into his trouser pocket, and said happily: "Then I'll go buy some vegetables first, and then I'll cook it myself, make a few specialty dishes, let you taste them, and then I'll call you later." ”

Looking at the back of Uncle Zhang's departure, Shi Yijian gave a thumbs up to Li Damei, and then joined in the hard work.

Just as the two of them were sweating profusely and moving the sundries one by one to the open space, Shi Yijian suddenly saw a dusty porcelain handicraft with simple workmanship being packed in a cardboard box and discarded in a corner of the pigsty at random.

Shi Yijian's heart moved, as excited as if he had discovered a new continent, and he could finally stop suffering and being tired. He placed the porcelain about half a meter high in the open space of the pigsty, wiped the dust off its body, lit a cigarette, and carefully observed what was in front of him.

At first, Shi Yijian thought that this gray-red porcelain, pot-bellied poop, sitting upright and half-squatting on the ground was a lucky cat. Later, I felt that this thing had sharp-beaked monkey gills, and the more I looked at it, the more I thought it was a mouse, and he was squatting on the ground and was puzzled.

At this time, the fat man also came over to join in the fun, he poured a cardboard box filled with sundries, and then sat on top of the cardboard box, and followed Shi Yijian to look at it in style.

Looking at the dust raised by the fat man and some fragrant feet that fell on the wall, Shi Yijian suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and remembered the gray fairy, one of the five great immortals in the Northeast, that is, the mouse, otherwise how could there be so many incense burner ashes and incense feet in the same cardboard box?

For the rat can become one of the five immortals, because it is day and night, its whereabouts are secretive, it is believed that the rat can predict the future, can make people rich, and bring treasures to the master's house in the dark, and some places regard it as a warehouse god, and sacrifice it during the folk warehouse filling festival.

However, among the five immortals, fox, yellow, white, willow, gray, the gray family is the most unpopular, it can also be said that the gray fairy is a lone ranger, no one worships it, so why does the old house of the Zhang family have these things? It's just a matter of worship, why throw away this porcelain object that has been around for some years?

When Li Tong dialed the phone number of the old couple of the Zhang family, through intermittent and back and forth communication, after Shi Yijian's judgment and speculation, he finally restored the whole story.

The predecessor of this courtyard house was originally a landlord's house, and later after the founding of New China, the landlord's house was quickly divided by the peasants.

Uncle Zhang's parents were divided into three bungalows according to population, and although many of the furniture, tables and chairs in it were moved away when they moved in, the shrine in one of the bungalows was intact and no one dared to touch it.

In the hearts of the older generation, most of them are in awe of ghosts and gods, and what they see inside is not the statue of Fu Lushou, Guan Erye and Bodhisattva, but an animal statue with a sharp beak and monkey gills, for fear that it is an evil god worshiped by the landlord's family, and no one dares to destroy it wantonly.

The parents of the old couple of the Zhang family are naturally no exception, they put the shrine and the porcelain gray fairy again, and put on the pillar incense every New Year's festival to worship it, this day is still stable, and there is nothing strange happening.

Until the death of Uncle Zhang's parents, there was no one to worship the gray fairy in the shrine.

However, as one of the five immortals, this rat was originally a solitary cultivator, and no one worshiped him and would not come out to make trouble, but the bad thing was that when the old couple was repairing the house, they accidentally broke a hole in the porcelain rat.

Although it is an old object, it has been around for some years, but it has collapsed a small hole, and it cannot be passed down from generation to generation as an antique. But it's a pity to throw it away, so I put it in the pigsty of the pile of miscellaneous items for the time being, maybe I can meet a stupid antique dealer with a lot of money, just this kind of thing, and it is not impossible to sell it for a good price.

Shi Yijian saw some introductions to the five immortals in the handwritten notes of the third prince, saying that these immortals who have become immortals are also good and evil. Although the yin qi is very heavy, there is very little anger, unlike the little ghost that Shi Yijian met in the Zhou family before, and he was full of resentment.

They often regard themselves as immortals, and when they are enshrined on the altar, they generally do not disturb the daily life of ordinary people. In the eyes of their immortal families, if they interfered with mortal dust, it would be against the way of heaven and would do no harm to their own cultivation.

And the profound family immortals can understand human nature and even talk to people. It stands to reason that in such a densely populated village, he should have been discovered by the ghost a long time ago, and caught in the underworld to be reincarnated by the six realms.

But that's okay, firstly, Shi Yijian can see the gray immortal, one of the five immortals, and secondly, it just so happens that there is still a lack of a host in the ghost eye shrine in his hand, maybe there will be an unexpected gain.

After dinner, Shi Yijian prepared to let them stay at the old farmer Uncle Zhang's house and act alone. However, this Li Dayu girl is stalking, so she has to come to the scene to supervise and see through his tricks.

Shi Yi couldn't help it, so he had to let the fat man take out the work suitcase from the trunk and take them to the pigsty again, which had been cleaned by them before, and the porcelain fairy statue had been put back on an old table.

Shi Yijian took out two candles and three sticks of incense from the work box, lit them, bowed, and then inserted them into a rice ball that was still warm.

After doing this, Shi Yijian took out a soul-attracting talisman, looked stunned, and read: "The sky is clear, the earth is spiritual, tonight with three incense, turned into auspicious clouds, please, ranked among the five immortal classes, the first of the twenty zodiac signs, the gray fairy is coming, the rune opens the way, and the Tao is long." ”

After that, he lit the soul charm in his hand, threw it into the air, and shouted with full anger: "Quickly ask the gray fairy to show his true body, as urgent as the law!" ”

Suddenly, the candlelight flickered, a gust of wind rose flatly, and then a black shadow slowly condensed on the table, and finally turned into a gray-black mouse, which startled Li Dayunu, who was watching the excitement on the side, almost screamed in shock. Fortunately, the fat man was prepared and covered her mouth, so that he did not alarm the surroundings.

The rat that condensed into an entity made two clicks, and then spat out: "Hmph, it can actually summon the immortals, it seems that the Tao is not shallow." ”

Shi Yijian was also slightly startled when he heard the rat speak, it seems that this rat has a hundred years of cultivation, and he has to deal with it carefully.

He arched his hand and said, "The Great Immortal is serious, my cultivation is still shallow, and I can't compare with you at all, I hope you will forgive me for disturbing me tonight." ”

The so-called reaching out and not hitting the smiling person, and the young man in front of him can show his true body with a spell, and he is not a good stubble.

The mouse's tone softened slightly: "Say, what's the matter with calling this great immortal out?" ”

Shi Yijian motioned to let the two people who were watching the excitement behind him leave first, after all, if they couldn't get along, if they started to move, they would definitely suffer a loss if they were to bring two burdens by their side.

Watching the two drift apart, Shi Yijian said: "That's the case, the old couple of the Zhang family offended you Daxian, they asked me to come over to talk to you, I hope you will raise your noble hand and let them go." ”

"Hmph, that kid from the old Zhang family, he hasn't come back for a long time, and as soon as he comes back, he will break the Dharma body of this great immortal, do you know that there is no Dharma body to hide traces, once you encounter a parade ghost, it will be more than lucky. If it weren't for the face of his dead parents, do you think Ben Daxian would just be as simple as catching these two people? ”

Shi Yijian knew that the rat spirit was telling the truth, thought about it, and discussed: "See if you can do this, I have a ghost-eyed shrine here, if you don't dislike it, you can stay here temporarily, wait for you to find a good place, and then leave, how about it?" ”

As soon as the words fell, Shi Yijian took out an egg-sized bead from his shoulder bag and shook it in front of the mouse fairy.
