Without waiting for the master to speak, Village Chief Niu reprimanded sternly, "What are you afraid of? With Mr. Yang here, what goblins are you afraid of?! By the way, Mr. Yang, how many people do you need, I'll go to the village and call a few more, how many people are easy to do, hehe! Saying that, Village Chief Niu smiled and walked out, but was stopped by the master, and the village chief Niu trembled......

Master said, "Village Chief Niu doesn't have to go, you and these people are enough, but not everyone is suitable to go, and going too much is not a good thing." If you are a frail and sick person, it will be more accidental, so those who are sick and have been taking drugs for a long time can now leave. ”

As soon as they heard this, two sick young men and a middle-aged man immediately turned around and ran out. I'm afraid that the master will change his hexagram again. But there are still more than a dozen young and middle-aged men left, and it seems that they don't want to use this excuse to quit, maybe this excuse will make them unable to raise their heads and be human beings in the future, so they are silent one by one, and they are stunned and do not take half a step back. However, the village chief Niu said with a trembling smile: "Mr. Yang, my body is also ......."

"It's okay." Master smiled and said: "Go into the mountains to search for the whereabouts of that demon, Village Chief Niu can follow me all the way, you don't have to do it yourself, take Village Chief Niu with you, it is also to restrain these villagers in time and obey your command." ”

As soon as the village chief Niu heard this, he came to his senses, his chest was tall, he first nodded to the master excitedly, and then pointed to the young men and said solemnly: "Well, Mr. Yang is right, you will enter the mountain one by one like a calf, I'm afraid you won't obey Mr. Yang's arrangement, I'll go to command you in a unified manner, if any one is disobedient, I will let the whole village know about it, this shameful thing, I guess you don't want to participate, right?!" ”

After listening to the words of the village chief Niu, those young and middle-aged men immediately smiled and nodded, and promised to listen to the command one by one and never come nonsense.

In this way, the master took a few steps forward and said, "Those whose yang qi is too weak should not enter the mountain, and those who have touched their wives in the last seven days can also go home, and the rest of the people will listen to my next arrangement." ”

There are people who have touched their wives, as soon as they said this, several old men turned red, but since the master said this, they couldn't continue to stay, so they had to turn around and walk out. It immediately caused the rest of the people to laugh. Now, there are still nine young men left in the courtyard, plus the village chief Niu is ten people, and Master and me, that is to say, the number of people who will enter the mountain next is twelve.

The master nodded, and then then ordered: "The nine of you each find a killing blade to carry on your body, the so-called killing blade, that is, the knife that has killed pigs and sheep, or killed chickens, ducks, geese and other poultry animals. In addition, the demon was severely damaged by my talisman last night, and it will definitely dodge what threatens it first, and the killing blade I asked you to find is this thing. ”

But seeing that these nine young adults listened to Master's words, they were suddenly full of energy, and it seemed that they could defend themselves with this thing, and they were full of confidence.

But I know very well that although the killing blade can ward off evil spirits, it can only deal with ordinary ghosts and evil things, and the master who has a little Taoism is also helpless, not to mention that what we are looking for is a sable essence, I don't know how many hundred years of cultivation it is, just a killing blade is used for a fart, maybe the master has such an arrangement, but also to make them feel at ease. But at least with the killing blade, you can avoid some other ghosts and evil things, so that they can concentrate on finding the demon, once even the killing blade can't resist the demon, there will be a sable essence among them, then this arrangement, also greatly shortened the scope of our search.

When Village Chief Niu saw that those young and middle-aged men were still talking to each other excitedly, he couldn't help frowning: "What are you still doing in a daze?" Hurry up and go home to find it, the guy who kills the pig and the sheep can take it with him, by the way, by the way, get me a hand, the thin camel who lives in the south of the village is a pig killer, he should have a few sinister pig killing knives at home, remember to leave one for me! ”

Hearing this, those young adults hurriedly ran out, and after a while, there were only three of us left in the courtyard, and the others ran out to find the killing blade.

The master looked up at the sky, it was mid-noon, and it was estimated that by the time everyone gathered and rushed to the deep mountains and old forests of Wuling Mountain, it would already be afternoon. Frowning, the master turned around and walked into the big house of the confused uncle, comforted the old woman, and the master walked to the god case and lit the three pillars of incense. I asked curiously, "Master, aren't we going to the mountains to look for that demon right away?" What else do you have to do? ”

Master ignored me, lit three pillars of incense, inserted it into the incense burner, and stared at the incense quietly. It's strange to say, I saw that the burning incense ash did not fall, but slowly bent up, and it was bent outward, this, what does this mean?

About half a pillar of incense, the courtyard had already gathered the nine young and middle-aged men, and I saw that they all had a killing blade pinned to their waists, all of them looked like a living Wu Song, and they wanted to enter the mountain to fight the rhythm of tigers. But the master was still staring in front of the incense, and after a long time, he shook his head and said, "It's really strange......

I hurriedly asked, "Master, what's strange?" ”

Master sighed lightly and said, "What color do you think this incense ash is?" The so-called yellow gods, white immortals, and black are ghosts, and this fragrant ash is curved outward, and the gray is pitch black, which is clearly a sign that evil ghosts have entered the house. That demon is a sable spirit, not some evil ghost, this is the strange thing about making a teacher. Alas, no matter what these things are now, since the people outside have arrived, we might as well go into the mountains to search for the cattle of the foolish uncle's family, and get rid of the evil thing first! ”

But when I saw the master leaving, I couldn't help but take another look at the incense, and sure enough, as the master said, the incense ash turned outward, and the ash was black, and I looked at the corpse of the confused uncle again, my heart beat wildly, and I hurriedly followed the master to the courtyard.

Glancing at everyone, the master nodded and said, "It's past noon now, and you have to come back before dark, whether you find it or not, and at night the demon is even more fierce than you." Let's go! ”

As soon as they heard this, the nine people suddenly wilted again, and under the command of Village Chief Niu, they walked out one after another. Master and I walked behind, while the other villagers in the village looked at the nine young adults with sympathetic glances. At this time, the village chief Niu came to the master's side with a pig-killing knife, and said, "Presumably, Mr. Yang doesn't know much about the mountainous areas of our generation, so I can give Mr. Yang a general introduction." ”

Master shook his head and said, "It's useless to understand, we have to choose the deep mountains and old forests with the sun behind us to look for this trip, the darker and damp the place, the more likely the cow is to exist in it." Village Chief Niu, if you recall how many such places there are in the mountains, we will line them up and search them one by one, and don't miss a single place! ”

When Village Chief Niu heard this, he thought for a while before he spoke: "Mr. Yang said this, I can name a few places, which are places where there is no sunlight all year round, and it is very dark and damp. Among them, there are Yingyue Ridge, Yinfeng Cave, and Da Tan Gou, and the big places are these three places, and there are also some scattered small ravines and wild forests and other places. ”

"In that case, we might as well search the three larger places first, and then clean up the trivial places. But try to have everyone search before dark, and after dark you have to go back to the village! Master nodded, and turned to me and said, "Ergou, you are looking for it in front with the Spirit Whisker Whip and the nine of them, and I and Village Chief Niu are following behind you, and if you find anything, you must inform us in time!" ”

I knew that Master's injuries had not yet healed, and that he could not overexert himself now, so he immediately nodded and said with concern: "Master, your injuries are not healed yet, don't go so fast, just look at us from a distance." ”

When Village Chief Niu heard this, he hurriedly nodded and said, "Since Mr. Yang is still injured, he can't be too tired, let's just find a higher ground and watch them later." Besides, there is a big echo in this mountainous area, and if something happens, you can know by shouting at each other. ”

Master thought for a while, so he had to nod: "Okay, if my injury becomes a burden to everyone, it will be inappropriate." ”

More than half an hour later, we entered the mountain one after another, I walked in front with nine people, and there were three young men of the same age as me, who were strong and dark-skinned, and they were solid young men at a glance, one of them smiled and said to me: "Brother Ergou, my name is Niu Wazi, you are Mr. Yang's apprentice, and you must also be a capable person, if there is something later, you have to take care of me......"

A thin face next to him also smiled and said: "Brother Ergou, my name is Dawang!" The other also followed up to introduce himself...... "My name is Niu Dan'er, Brother Ergou, our brothers are messing with you!"

I glanced at the sharp knife on Niu Dan'er's waist, and saw that it was still stained with blood, so I hurriedly asked, "Niu Dan'er, why is your knife still bloody?" ”

Niu Dan'er smiled and said embarrassedly: "I'm afraid that my knife is not strong enough, so I slaughtered two chickens before I went out, and increased the evil spirit of this knife, hehe!" As soon as I heard Niu Dan'er say this, Dawang and Niu Wazi were suddenly unhappy, and each pushed Niu Dan'er, saying that Niu Dan'er was not interesting enough, why didn't they tell them to make their ready-made slaughtered chickens a little more evil, I couldn't help laughing, these young men are really funny.
