Chapter 26 It's better to knock on the door than to climb over the wall
My master Ma Hongji looked indifferent and said, "It's okay, it's just that the corpse qi on the female corpse is too heavy and was ignited by the heavenly fire...... However, this courtyard should be the hiding place of the ghost baby. ”
He didn't explain much, and I didn't ask much.
"Master, what should I do next?" I asked, in a low voice.
Ma Hongji thought for a while and said, "We'd better not alarm the ghost baby, you just knock on the door and pretend to ask for directions." ”
Asking for directions?
Thanks to my master Ma Hongji, he can figure out how to ask for directions this big night. Even if you do ask for directions, people will be wary and will not open the door.
Seeing me standing there hesitating, my master urged again, "Go, knock on the door!" ”
Forehead! All right.
I went knocking on the door.
"Knock knock!"
After knocking on the wooden door a few times, there was a "creak" sound from inside, the sound of opening the door, and then an old voice came out: "Who?" ”
It's an old lady's voice.
I hurriedly raised my voice and shouted boldly: "Auntie, I'm asking for directions, my friend and I got lost here, can you tell us how to find the car and get out of here?" ”
The old lady really didn't eat this, and said dissatisfiedly: "Ask for directions? I don't know what the way is, you go to someone else's house and ask, don't knock on our courtyard door. My little grandson is asleep, don't stand at the door and scream, we still have to rest. ”
Alas! It didn't work.
"Smack!"
A door slammed. Then the old woman's voice was gone.
I leaned against the crack in the door and looked inside. But the lights were still on in the room.
In other words, that lady, she didn't sleep at all.
Seeing that I failed to knock on the door and ask for directions, my master Ma Hongji said to me, "Yuyang, you stand back first, and I'll come." ”
My master's voice was serious, and I thought he was going to kick in the door.
Unexpectedly, he went to the courtyard gate and knocked on the door "bang".
After all, it's normal for people to not open the door on this big night. I said to my master, "Master, if you don't go over the wall and go in, it's not a good idea to knock on the door." ”
Unexpectedly, my master said seriously: "No! How can our Lushan Taoist priests break into private houses and climb over the wall to enter the house, this kind of thing can't be done!! ”
He's pretty well-behaved.
"But, Master, you won't open the door when you ask passers-by."
My master Ma Hongji frowned slightly: "This time it's not to ask for directions, it's to spend the night!" ”
Forehead!
Well, he won.
After knocking on the door for a few minutes, the door in the courtyard "creaked" open again.
It was still the old lady's voice: "Didn't you say we didn't know, why did you still knock on the door?" ”
My master's voice slowed down, and he said inside: "Auntie, you misunderstood, we don't mean anything else, it's completely dark now, we can't ask for directions, we can't find the car, and we can't leave." So, we thought if we could spend the night with you...... We can give money! ”
The old lady hardly hesitated: "No! We don't have anyone to stay overnight, so let's go. Otherwise, I'll call the police. ”
"Bang dang!"
As before, the door was slammed shut.
My master, Ma Hongji, looked at me with some embarrassment.
I shrunk my neck helplessly: "Master, it's still not good." People don't want to open the door at all. If it were me, I wouldn't have opened the door. How is it possible to let strangers enter the hospital casually...... It's night! Moreover, the ghost baby is in this house, and they will not be unaware. ”
And my master's next sentence almost didn't me off.
He tugged at his hairless chin and said righteously: "Since this is the case, it can only be ...... Climb over the wall and get in! ”
Forehead!
His words stunned me. Did I think he was here to be funny? He didn't climb over the wall just now, but now he wants to climb over the wall, and just now he clearly said seriously that he can't do this kind of thing by climbing over the wall and entering the room.
It's going to change your face too quickly.
may have seen my thoughts, Ma Hongji was a little embarrassed.
His words changed again, and he said: "Yuyang, rules are dead, people are alive, our Lushan sect does have many fragmentary rules, but our new generation of Lushan Taoist priests naturally want to break the rules, take their essence, and remove their dross......"
These words came out of the mouth of my master Ma Hongji, and they really made me look confused.
I have no doubt that he is capable of twisting the truth into heresy.
It seems that my master Ma Hongji is not only handsome and handsome, but also has this kind of cold humor.
"Alright, Master, if you are happy!" I said.
My master nodded, and then said, "Okay, then you can turn off the flashlight first." ”
I turned off my flashlight.
My master, Ma Hongji, told me, "When you go to the courtyard, don't keep quiet, just follow as a teacher." He was getting serious again.
Before I could reply, Ma Hongji reached out and grabbed my arm, and then, his toes touched the ground lightly. Two yellowish clumps of gas appeared on his legs and feet.
Directly, just like the light skills in the martial arts TV series, he actually jumped directly into the courtyard with me.
West Eight!
It was that simple. I couldn't help but slander my master Ma Hongji for a while. If we had known it was so simple, we wouldn't have had to knock twice just now.
Now it's a bit of a surprise.
There are three rooms in the courtyard, which are tiled houses, divided into the east house and the west house, each with a door.
The lights in the east room were on, and the old woman had just come out of the east room.
"Let's go, let's go over there and have a look."
My master, Ma Hongji, raised his hand and pointed to the East House.
I followed him, and I always felt like a thief. But when I think about that hateful ghost baby, I can't get angry in my heart.
I took the cane from my waist, held it in my hand, and walked cautiously.
After all, I'm here to find a ghost baby, and I also know that ghost babies are not simple, so I'm still very nervous.
The palms of my hands were covered with cool sweat.
My master, Ma Hongji, didn't care, and walked quickly towards the east house.
As he got closer, he pulled a disc out of his sleeve.
The disc is the compass, and I've seen it on TV. However, the compass in my master's hand, Ma Hongji, is very complicated, with some strange characters written on it in a mess, as well as various symbols and patterns.
I know those lines are runes.
It seems that this compass is also a magic weapon of the Lushan sect.
Someone was talking in the east room, but not loudly.
My master approached first, and I followed. Lying in front of the window glass of the east room, I saw two people lying on the kang in the house, an old man and an old grandmother.
The old man and the old lady were very old, and they were talking. It's not loud, but it's probably because of the changes in my body.
So their voices, I can still hear them very clearly.
The old man casually asked the old lady, "Who knocked on the door just now?" How endless! ”
The old lady replied, "They are still the ones who ask for directions, but they seem to be two people who want to stay at our house, and I sent them away." ”
"Oh, that's right." The old man didn't pay much attention to it.
As if he had thought of something, the old man asked the old lady again: "Yes! Xiufen, what's wrong with our grandson? You don't need to look for the Taoist chief, don't do anything else. The day before yesterday, you also saw that our grandson vomited so much blood, and I don't know how he got it? ”
The old lady was a little reluctant to answer the old man's words, she pouted and said, "Don't worry about your grandson's affairs, our son will take care of it himself." It's a miracle that your grandson survived, and you should be content, don't worry about it. ”
The old man didn't think so: "But I always feel that something is wrong here." Before our daughter-in-law died, she was only pregnant for more than half a year, and the fetus was not fully developed, so how could she survive. ”
"Otherwise, let's take our grandson to the hospital one day, so that nothing will happen to him."
The old lady sat up from the fire pit and said with some complaint, "What kind of hospital!" Didn't the Taoist chief say, our grandson's life is thin, and he can't see the light of day yet, and he can't take it to a crowded place. Don't you still believe the words of the Dao Chief, if there is no Dao Chief, the roots of our Wang family will be broken!! ”
The old man was blushing when the old lady said it, and his temper came up: "Okay, okay, I don't care, I don't care...... Let you do it. Are you and Dongzi both demonic, you only believe the words of the Taoist chief, if you want me to see, that Taoist chief doesn't even want to show his face, maybe, he is not a good person at all. ”
The old lady was very unhappy with the old man's words, and shouted angrily: "I don't want to say bad things about you, if you are a dead old man and chew your tongue again, we will not be able to get by....... When the time comes, Dongzi and I will move out with our little grandson. You just stay at home and live your life. ”
When the old man saw that the old lady was angry, he said a few words of persuasion.
The old lady turned off the light, and the room was quiet.
After thinking about the words of the old man and the old lady, it is not difficult to think that the "Dao Chief" they are talking about should refer to Jia Xuelin, a traitor of the Three Mountains Sect. And the funny thing is that a ghost baby is actually regarded by them as their grandson.
Seeing that the lights were turned off in the East House, my master waved at me.
His gaze never took off the compass.
Because there is mana poured into the compass, at this time there is a little light on the compass.
The hands shook slightly.
"Let's go, go to the Westinghouse, that ghost baby is not in the East House, but in the Westinghouse." My master Ma Hongji whispered.
I nodded and followed.
Westinghouse turned off the lights, but as I got closer, I smelled blood, fishy.
Although there was moonlight outside, the curtains were drawn in the Westinghouse, so I couldn't see the inside of the house.
"You stay at the door, I'll go in and have a look."
My master, Ma Hongji, told me.
I crouched honestly in the doorway, clutching the wand in my hand. Although I now have the Cursed Eye and the Yuanyang Hand, I have no bottom in my heart when I face the ferocious ghost baby again.
Moreover, my master Ma Hongji had already told me on the way, saying that only if I cultivated mana could I trigger the cursed eye. In other words, the cursed eye is equal to nothing for me now.
However, Yuan Yang's hand can touch the ghost body of the ghost, and there is some great damage to the ghost.
After that, for some reason, my master opened the door of the West House and walked in slowly.
However, just as my master entered the Westinghouse.
Suddenly, inside the house, a bell rang.
"Damn it, you hung a bell in the house!"
I heard my master, Ma Hongji, complaining.
Apparently he touched the bell, causing it to shake.
After that, I saw the lights come on inside the Westroom.
In addition, the sound of another man cursing and the howling of a wolf came from inside the house.
The lights flickered on and off.
I was afraid that my master Ma Hongji would be in trouble, so I hurriedly leaned down in front of the gap in the curtain and looked inside the house from the outside.
I saw a scene that shocked me.
