Chapter 136: Within the Jiang Mansion 2
Immediately afterwards, Xiao Laodao said that the sixteen words written on the door, what is the content, what color, what look, and what is the meaning of the word.
At that time, the words on the gate had long been erased by the subordinates of the Jiang Mansion, and except for a few people in the Jiang family who saw it, the others didn't even know what was written.
Seeing this, Xiao Laodao took the opportunity to say again, your family, now there are a few flower thieves, these flower thieves are not long-sighted, and they have taken a virgin girl from the Bodhisattva's side to take them away, and the Bodhisattva was furious, so he sent a ghost monkey to burn your mansion, this is a warning, if you keep those flower thieves again, it will not be a house next time.
Xiao Laodao is skillful, and good at observing words and feelings, seeing the wind and rudder, a call, the Jiang family master is convinced, and then called the old man of the housekeeper over to ask, the old man of the housekeeper prevaricated, so he had to confess the three sons of the Gao family, saying that a few people always go out of the house at night, and come back late at night, and come back a few times, and carry a burlap bag, which seems to contain people......
After hearing this, the eldest master of the Jiang family was furious, but because of his younger brother's face, he just drove several children of the Gao family out of the house.
After Xiao Laodao finished speaking, the master thought about it before and after, and admired Xiao Laodao more and more, he was really strategizing, and everything was in his planning.
Back at the inn, Xiao Chujiu and a few people were worried about the master and Xiao Laodao, but they hadn't eaten lunch yet, and when they saw the grandfather and Xiao Laodao coming back, they were relieved.
The girl also complained about my grandfather, where to go in the future to tell others, so that others don't have to worry about you, the grandfather doesn't care, he is used to being alone, Xiao Laodao heard the girl say this, and smiled meaningfully.
In a blink of an eye, this came to night, Xiao Laodao instructed Xiao Chujiu and a few of them to stay in the inn, pack all the luggage, and leave here immediately after he and my grandfather came back from Jiang Mansion.
When the showgirl heard this, she asked Xiao Lao Dao suspiciously, why do we always leave in a hurry at night? Xiao Laodao said with a straight face, don't ask so much, just do it.
The master listened to it and didn't say a word, because at this time the master had completely understood, although Xiao Laodao seemed to act strangely, but in the end it was always in his planning, others didn't need to ask why, let alone question his decision, and now he said that leaving the inn in the middle of the night, it must be reasonable.
Xiao Laodao has just finished explaining here, and the old man of the Jiang Mansion's housekeeper came to the inn, which was specially sent by the Jiang family master to pick up my grandfather and Xiao Laodao.
This time, the old guy was really polite, swept away the previous arrogance, and nodded and flattered after seeing my grandfather and Xiao Laodao, which was closer than seeing my father.
Xiao Laodao looked at the old man's groveling servant appearance, with a look of disdain, and secretly said in my grandfather's ear: "Seeing that there is no brother, this is the material for being born to be a dog......"
After following the old man of the housekeeper to the door of the inn, my grandfather and Xiao Laodao suddenly showed a look of surprise, and saw that outside the door of the inn, there were two small sedan chairs carried by four people, and the old man of the housekeeper went over to open the sedan curtain with a smile, and invited my grandfather and Xiao Laodao to get on the sedan chair.
The grandfather and Xiao Laodao glanced at each other, the grandfather didn't like to sit in a sedan chair, he sat in it, and let others carry him, feeling uncomfortable, Xiao Laodao whispered to him, "Sit down, brother, don't sit in vain, don't sit in vain......"
Got on the sedan chair and came to Jiang's mansion, got off the sedan chair, and the old man of the housekeeper said to Xiao Laodao: "Xiao Shenxian, I have prepared everything you want, and the altar has also been placed for you. ”
It was still the room where the lunch was eaten, but the food on the table was much richer than at noon, and the eldest master of the Jiang family had been waiting at the dining table for a long time at this time.
However, before eating, the master and Xiao Laodao first went to the back room to look at the girl, the girl was still tied on the chair, but the cloth on her mouth was untied, and the whole person was quite energetic......
The grandfather ignored her, and seeing that there was nothing wrong, he came out of the back room with Xiao Laodao, accompanied by the eldest master of the Jiang family, and the two of them ate and drank.
At this time, the eldest master of the Jiang family, compared with noon, seems to have a very subtle change, the anger and arrogance on his face are not so heavy, it seems that Xiao Laodao's words at noon have played a role in him, and between the words, he is also a lot more humble, between the lines, vaguely, revealing the intention of wanting to do some good deeds for the town, and he wants to build a Taoist temple outside the town, and then take the whole family to the temple to burn incense and kowtow in the morning and evening.
When Xiao Laodao heard Master Jiang say this, he smiled knowingly, and said that if the eldest master can have such an awareness, he will definitely have great blessings in the future.
After dinner, led by the old man of the housekeeper, several housekeepers carried the girl tied to the chair, and the grandfather and others followed behind and came to the Jiangfu Garden.
Fatan is placed in the garden, because there are no buildings here, only some flowers and plants, when the ghost monkey set fire to the Jiang Mansion, he ignored it, compared to other places, the garden is the only intact place in the Jiang Mansion.
The girl was placed in front of Fatan by several family members, Xiao Laodao walked up to Fatan, picked up a gossip robe on the table, and put it on solemnly.
Subsequently, Xiao Laodao asked everyone to stay away, beckoning my grandfather to come over, and the grandfather walked over and looked at Fatan, and saw that there were incense burners, melons and fruits, chickens and fish, etc., which were nothing on Fatan, but the plates containing these offerings were actually silver, and the wine jugs and wine glasses next to them were all golden, and even this bronze incense burner looked unusual, full of ancient atmosphere, as if it was an old object.
The master couldn't help but ask Xiao Laodao, "Brother Xiao, if you let them put such a generous Fatan, can you really drive the peach blossom essence away from the girl?" ”
When Xiao Laodao heard this, he didn't answer in a hurry, he turned his head and looked at the Jiang family, at this time, the eldest master of the Jiang family, the woman, the housekeeper, and several family members all stood in the distance, and they couldn't hear what Fatan was saying here with a pair of ears, Xiao Laodao smiled and said to the master: "How can I get rid of her, I don't have to rely on you, brother." ”
The master asked again: "Then what's the use of you putting this Fatan?" ”
"Tsk." Xiao Laodao suddenly smacked his mouth, "Didn't I tell you a long time ago, don't come to a little fancy, then Master Jiang doesn't take the two of us lightly, you look at the objects on this table, the marigold silver plate, and the hundred-year-old incense burner, only if they let them prepare these objects, they will feel that our Dharma is precious!" ”
"Where did you do that?" The grandfather disagreed.
Xiao Laodao urged: "Come on, brother, don't talk nonsense, you see if there is anything you can use on the table, I will pretend to do something here, and you go over and drive the peach blossom essence away." ”
When the master heard this, he glanced at Fatan again, and saw that in addition to chicken, duck and fish, marigold and silver plates, there were many other objects on Fatan, such as peach wood swords, red cloth, wicker, scissors, yellow paper, incense, etc., as long as they were used to exorcise evil spirits, Fatan was basically there.
As soon as the master stretched out his hand, he was going to take the peachwood sword, because this peachwood sword looked particularly delicate in workmanship, whether it was the hilt or the sword body, it was carefully carved and polished, and the position of the sword grid was also engraved with a yin and yang gossip figure, the master liked it very much, but before he could get it in his hand, Xiao Laodao grabbed his arm, "Brother, you can't take this peachwood sword, you took it, what do I do." ”
The master immediately gave up, took a bundle of incense and a pile of yellow paper on the table, and then pulled out the Liangyi Yin and Yang Sword from his waist.
At this time, Xiao Laodao picked up the wooden sword, brushed and danced a few times, the master saw that he really had the appearance of a person who exorcised evil spirits, he himself took the Liangyi Yin Yang Sword and yellow paper incense, bypassed Fatan, and walked towards the girl.
However, at this moment, Xiao Laodao suddenly shouted, "Wait! "It made my grandfather's heart flutter, and when he looked back, he saw that Xiao Lao Dao and the old god were on the ground and closed his eyes, holding the peachwood sword upside down in his right hand, and quickly pinching it with his left hand.
Seeing this, the master wondered, what tricks is this old Taoist going to do? The master stood in place and didn't dare to make any more moves.
After a while, Xiao Laodao slowly opened his eyes, put his left hand down, ignored the master, turned around and walked towards the Jiang family's eldest master, the grandfather was puzzled, and followed over.
I saw Xiao Laodao walk up to the eldest master of the Jiang family, make a joke, and said to the eldest master of the Jiang family: "Master Jiang, the poor Taoist has a feeling, and he pinched his fingers and counted a hexagram, you now send a few reliable people to the mansion to check to see if there are any people in the mansion who left the mansion today, and they have not come back yet." ”
The eldest man of the Jiang family was stunned for a moment and said: "The house has just caught fire, and many families live outside the house, is this considered leaving the house?" ”
"This doesn't count, only those who haven't returned to their residences, or gone far away."
"This ......" the eldest man of the Jiang family showed a trace of embarrassment on his face, "I'm afraid this is not easy to check." ”
Xiao Lao Dao frowned, "It's about Ling Qianjin's life, and I hope that the eldest master will check it no matter what." ”
"What? This...... How can this Ding out of the mansion have anything to do with my daughter's life? ”
Xiao Laodao had a straight face and said: "Ling Qianjin's soul has been driven out of the body by the peach blossom essence at this time, but the soul will not go too far, it should be hiding next to someone in your house, be sure to check it out, and after the peach blossom essence is driven away, the poor road will do a trick to summon the soul, if there is a person who goes out of the house and takes away the soul of Ling Qianjin, then it will not be able to recruit it back!" ”
When the eldest man of the Jiang family heard this, his face changed suddenly, and he immediately turned his head and instructed the old man in charge of the housekeeper, "Did you hear it, quickly take a few people to investigate, no matter who it is, tell them all to go back to the house, and they are not allowed to leave the house for half a step!" ”
At this time, the master glanced at Xiao Laodao, and the grandfather knew that the girl's soul had not left her body at all, and she would not follow anyone, but what did Xiao Laodao mean by letting them check the people in the house? Thank you "still" for the 100 yuan red envelope.
