I turned back to Master and said, "Master, I just saw a pair of yellow eyes in the forest. ”

At this time, the master had already walked to the square table, and he replied without raising his head: "Don't say it." ”

As he spoke, the master pressed his hand on the table, and the four legs that had been trembling instantly froze, and the yellow cloth stirred by the wind also stabilized.

Then the master took out one of the dozen rune papers, pinched the paper with two fingers and shook it violently, and the rune paper instantly caught fire out of thin air.

It was just a small flame, but the heat seemed to cover the whole yard, and I suddenly felt a warmth rise from all over my body, and even the impatient wind immediately stopped.

Master spread his fingers and let the burnt rune paper slowly fall, until the rune paper that had fallen to the ground was completely burned to ashes and the fire was extinguished, and he began to clean up the things on the table.

Stirred by the wind, the bowl that was originally placed behind the incense burner was also overturned, and the clear water was spread on the yellow cloth, and kept flowing down the corner of the table.

"There's still a small half bowl of water left, it's enough." As he spoke, the master shook his left hand, and the incense in his hand suddenly burst into flames, and with another shake, the flames disappeared, leaving only a thick cloud of smoke floating on the incense head.

The Master dipped the incense root in the bowl of water and put the incense in the censer.

At the moment when the incense stood firmly, I noticed that the aura on Master's body became extraordinarily quiet, and he stood there, as if he was one with the winter sun, which was unpredictable.

I could only look at Master's next move with a pair of naked eyes, and I saw him straighten the yellow cloth on the table again, place a dozen runes smoothly near the corner of the table, and then pick up the thin sword on the table, and his mouth opened and closed, as if he was chanting something, but I could not hear anything.

After a long time, the master's eyes suddenly widened, and he shouted: "Xun! At the same time, a strong force was released from his body, and I only felt a tightness in my heart, and I sat on the ground with a snort.

There was no wind in the courtyard, but the rune paper on the corner of the table seemed to be stirred by the wind, and it quickly tossed page by page, making a burst of "clattering" sounds.

No matter how much I tossed, the roots of the rune paper were still firmly pressed against the yellow cloth, and as they continued to churn, the yellow cloth seemed to suddenly become much larger, and in my sight, the edge of the yellow cloth almost fell to the ground.

"Rise!"

There was another shout, and as the master quickly shook the thin sword, the sword body immediately swung softly.

The sword seemed to be extremely gentle, but in the shaking again and again, it seemed to have infinite strength.

The sound of the wind rose again, and a swirling wind spread out with the master as the center, and the dust in the courtyard was also affected by this wind, and instantly rose from the ground, forming a thin flying sand barrier, the faster the master shook the thin sword, the faster the flying sand barrier circled.

Click!

At that moment, I heard a small noise behind me, and when I turned my head to look, I saw the old beehive on the eaves fall to the ground, breaking in half on the spot, and two round things gurgling out of the hive.

I was curious, and I wanted to see what those two round beads were, but Master suddenly shouted, "Don't go over!" I could only hold back my thoughts and dispel the thoughts just now.

I was about to turn my head to look at Master, but I heard him shout, "Close your eyes!" ”

I quickly closed it, and I felt a warm wind coming in my face, and at the same time, there was a lot of sand on my clothes, and I could feel the vibrations of my clothes, and I could hear the noise of broken sand hitting my clothes.

When I opened my eyes again, Master's big warm hands were already on my shoulders and slowly helped me up.

After I got up, Master first helped me dust off the sand on my body, and then squatted down and asked me, "Aren't you hurt?" ”

"I don't know, it's just that my stomach hurts a little." As I spoke, I became nervous: "Master, take a look, what if I break my ass in two!" ”

Originally, the master still looked very serious, but when he heard me say this, he couldn't help but laugh: "It's originally two petals." ”

With that, he reached out and picked up the two round beads on the ground.

I stood on tiptoe and looked at the crook of Master's arm, and I saw that what he was holding in his hand were two round balls of wax.

When I used to live in Tsukayama, I used to see my grandfather collect the melted candles and make them into wax balls, and if you put a straw thread on the wax ball, it would be a new candle.

It's just that the wax balls made by grandpa are all jet-white and translucent, but the wax balls in front of him are white and opaque.

Master pinched both sides of the wax ball, and when he broke it hard, the wax ball cracked in the middle, and I realized that inside the wax ball was a very large cavity, and there was a handful of black and yellow fluff inside.

I asked Master, "What is this?" ”

The master looked at the puff of fluff carefully, and his brows furrowed slightly: "It's cat hair, tanuki." ”

After that, the master muttered to himself, "Is it possible...... It's the spirit of the tanuki spirit who has come back to ask for his life. ”

Originally, I wanted to ask what a tanuki was and what a wronged soul was, but when I saw the serious look on the master's face and remembered the power that had just burst out from him, I swallowed my saliva and didn't dare to ask.

Later, Master took the initiative to turn his face and say to me, "Recently, don't go outside the yard to play. ”

"Why?"

The master was silent for a long time before replying: "It's not peaceful outside. ”

Later, I heard Master complain that when I was a child, I was literally a hundred thousand whys, and that a big fart could give rise to countless questions in my place, and he was annoyed enough by me, but every time I asked him, he was too embarrassed to discourage my curiosity, and he had to respond to me more or less.

However, Master also said that fortunately, I was more obedient, and I didn't make any trouble because of my curiosity.

That night, Qiao Sanye came back in a hurry to eat, because there were no ingredients at home, the master couldn't start the fire, or Qiao Sanye brought a few meat and vegetarian fires back to fill everyone's stomachs.

Qiao Sanye discussed with the master, and planned to make a cold cellar in the courtyard, and he would send some chickens, ducks, fish and grain over when he turned around.

At first, the master refused, but Qiao Sanye said that I was the time to make up for my body, and I could lack anything else, except food, even if he lent it to my master, my master saved money later, and then slowly repaid him, the master hesitated again and again, and finally nodded.
