Chapter 14: The Red Clothed Taoist
He exclaimed in fright, and instinctively looked down, and after his eyes adjusted to the darkness, he could clearly see what was holding him.
It was a man who had been skinned and was dripping with blood!
The faceless head was raised and met Jia Ren's grandfather's eyes, and the latter was immediately frightened and fainted!
When I closed the notebook, the cold hairs on my whole body stood up, and the more I experienced all kinds of evil things, the more I believed what Mr. Jia wrote in the notebook.
As for what happened to his master, and how he finally escaped from the humanoid monster that seemed to have been skinned, the notebook did not mention a word.
However, the description of the corpse that induced this ghost thing caught my attention, and it said that the old man in Mazi's family also turned into a purple corpse after his death, which is somewhat similar to the tragic situation of Old Man Jia and Lan Daoshi.
The signs are inextricably linked, but they are like a mess that I can't figure out, and all I can think of so far is the jade pendant.
"By the way, what did your old man do with Yu Pei in the end?" I asked.
Jia Ren pondered for a moment and said, "After he confiscated the jade pendant that night, he locked himself in the bedroom when he returned home, although I didn't know what he was doing, but I quietly went outside his house and heard him chanting for a while, and his voice was too small to hear clearly.
After that, I sorted out the relics and turned the house upside down, but I didn't find the jade pendant, and I have to look for it after I go back, you also think that jade pendant is very important, right? ”
"Well, of course the key, I didn't have a way before, but now I have, as long as you can find that jade pendant, I will definitely be able to investigate it for you."
"That Mo Daoist?" After Jia Ren finished speaking, he nodded to himself, "Yes, that Mo Daoist can tell me about the affairs of my family at once, it seems that there are two brushes, go back and introduce me, I just have something I want to ask." ”
"That's fine." I said and raised my chin at him, "Isn't it good to hear your family say that you are not in the right mental state?" I think you'll be able to go back with me tomorrow. ”
"Pretty good? What a fart! Jia Ren said angrily, "Don't you know, since the old man left, Lao Tzu has had nightmares every day!" I almost didn't let the old man in the family send me for psychological counseling.
My mom said that maybe there will be a change in the environment, but I didn't expect it to be really useful after I came, as for the phone, the broken phone was changed, and the signal has been bad. ”
I see.
"Go back and find that Mo Daoist to show you, maybe I can help you exorcise those evil spirits."
After eating the meal heartily, Jia Ren and I blew the cow for a while and went to sleep.
Nothing strange happened that night, but I don't know if it was because I drank too much or because of some kind of chemistry from the previous conversation with Jia Ren, and when I was in a daze, I even dreamed that Mrs. Jia said something to me.
The content is a little vague, and the general meaning is similar to what Jia Ren said before, that is, let's be careful and don't be curious about everything.
Before I got up the next day, I heard a noise outside the yard, and when I got dressed, I walked out to see that Jia Ren was busy moving things inside and out.
"What are you doing, you're going to take away all the things in this old house? I'm not driving a truck to carry you back. ”
I lit a cigarette, and the guy got up and twisted his waist and said to me, "How much do you think, don't you see that this is something from outside?" You don't have a handle to help me move in. ”
I was a little confused and asked, "Aren't you going to go back with me?" Could it be that you are planning to move here for a long time? ”
"What's so bad about moving here, it's very comfortable to live here." He clapped his hands and continued, "Isn't renting a house over there also an expense?" If you move in with me, you can save a lot, and the rent will not be charged to you, so we can share the food expenses evenly. ”
"I'm crazy to move in with you." I hastened to refuse.
Jia Ren walked over in two steps and smiled awkwardly, "Let's move over, we also have a companion, to be honest, I was very scared after the old man left, if something happened, I wouldn't even have someone to call an ambulance for me." ”
I frowned, my intuition told me that this guy still had something to hide from me, and I stared at him and asked seriously, "What else do you have to explain?" ”
"This, this..."
Jia Ren was speechless, and I said with a straight face: "If you don't treat me as a brother, then don't blame me for not being interesting enough in the future." ”
"Hey, it's not a big deal, it's just that after I moved here, a Taoist priest came, this person is very magical, I didn't mention him to know what happened to the two of us, and then told me, I'd better stay with you and have a care.
I didn't expect to bother you before, but didn't you come to me this time, so I thought you were here, and it's nothing to live with me, not to mention saving you money on rent. ”
Strangely, my nose smelled the smell of conspiracy, Jia Ren was a little embarrassed, and I asked in a low voice, "What is the name of the Taoist priest and what does he look like?" Isn't it a young man? What else was told to you? ”
He scratched his head and thought for a while before he came up with a clue and said, "An old man, I don't know what it's called, and I don't remember what else he said, anyway, it's safer for the two of us to stay together." ”
"Pig brain, I can't remember it for just a few days?" I didn't have the heart to say it.
His eyes widened like a cow, "Look at what you say!" Am I not in a bad state? Besides, that day, the Taoist priest came to talk to me without a word of thought, my brain was dizzy, and I woke up after a night's rest. ”
"You can't have been drugged with sweat, right?" I raised my eyebrows, and Jia Ren's face also changed, "This can't be, right?" It's not a martial arts master who can drug invisibly. ”
When he said this, he tilted his neck and thought for a moment and said to me: "But that Taoist priest is indeed strange, where do you say there is a Taoist priest who wears the same clothes as the groom?" ”
"Dressed like the bridegroom?"
"Well, a red robe, it's the kind in the Ming and Qing dynasties."
I gasped, Jia Ren's lack of understanding of things outside of the world does not mean that I don't know anything about it either.
The Taoist robe is a robe worn by Taoists outside, which can be divided into six types: gown, deluo, ring clothes, magic clothes, flower clothes, and robes, but which one has never heard of the color is bright red all over, or am I shallow and don't know?
This possibility is very small, I thought for a while and nodded: "There are many strange things every year, I will accompany you here for a few days, and by the way, contact that Mo Daoist." ”
As soon as I went back and packed my things, I called Mo Daoshi, and as soon as I opened my mouth, the guy surprised me.
