Chapter 12 There Are People Outside the People
Xiao Wu followed these people unhurriedly, wanting to see what they would do.
I saw these villagers follow the man along the road in the village and walk around the village, beating gongs and drums as they walked.
Xiao Wu felt that this person was very problematic, but he didn't know how to expose him, these villagers walked around and around for the last time, and then returned to the soaphorn tree, the Taoist priest waved a few times on the soaphorn tree with a whisk, and waved a few times at the ancient well: "Okay, the evil is gone." ”
Xiao Wu couldn't help but ask: "What did you say the female ghost in the well went to the sea, and where is there any evil?" ”
The Taoist priest sneered: "That evil cult has been here for twenty-two years, and it has already accumulated a lot of difficulties to return, even if the main body is gone, the evil left behind is still there." Young man, what's the matter with you here? ”
Xiao Wu is a lay disciple, he used to wear Taoist robes in Wudang, and he had never been to the land temple, so this Taoist did not recognize him.
"Now that the ghost is gone, what kind of evil is left here?" Xiao Wu did not give up.
"Naturally...... Pestilence. The Taoist priest said the word plague, and began to close his eyes slightly and mumble to himself, with a look of no one bothering me.
At this time, a villager whispered in the man's ear: "This is a lay disciple of Wudang. ”
The Taoist priest pretended to be light and still kept his eyes closed, but his slightly fluttering eyelids and suddenly raised eyebrows already showed that he was not at peace in his heart.
The Taoist priest ignored Xiao Wu and chanted words to Gu Jing, Xiao Wu observed for a long time, but he still didn't understand the essentials
The Taoist priest muttered to himself for a long time, and finally the group dispersed, leaving only Xiao Wu.
The Taoist priest turned around and saw Xiao Wu, didn't say anything, turned around and left, Xiao Wu shouted: "Wait, what did you mean by what direction you just said to the sea?" How do you know where the female ghost went? ”
As he spoke, he ran forward and blocked the way of the Taoist priest.
The Taoist priest looked at Xiao Wu and said in a low voice, "Everyone is a cultivator, so it's convenient for each other." ”
"You make it clear." Xiao Wu stubbornly asked, "How do you know that the female ghost is gone?" Do you know which direction you went? ”
The Taoist priest squinted at Xiao Wu and smiled gloomily: "Young man, I think you are a disciple of Wudang to tolerate you again and again, you must know that there are people outside the world, you don't want to toast and don't eat and drink." Saying that, Xiao Wu only felt that his arms were sore, and he hung down weakly, and the Taoist priest actually floated away.
Xiao Wu stared at the figure of the man in astonishment. He knew that his ability was insufficient, but he never imagined that such a small earth-shattering temple could have such a profound spell, his whole body seemed to be tied by a rope, he couldn't move, and his arm seemed to be dislocated. He returned to the Taoist temple full of depression, came to the door of Yuan Shou and knocked on the door.
"Come in."
Pushing open the door, I saw Yuan Shou sitting on the side, and there was a pile of weeds on the table.
Xiao Wu walked over and reached out to pinch the weed: "Senior brother, what is this?" ”
"A straw mouse."
"Rats? Hahaha, it's ugly, who made this up? This kind of craft, I'm afraid I will starve to death. ”
Xiao Wu also liked to make things out of grass when he was a child, and seeing this weaving so ugly at the moment, he knew that Yuan Shou never fiddled with these things, so he dared to laugh at it.
"Gadgets aren't worth anything." Yuan Shouyuqin was indifferent, took the straw weaving, found a box and put it aside.
Xiao Wu looked at all this and asked, "Senior brother, this kind of thing to coax children ......?"
"What are you doing?"
Yuan Shou directly changed the topic.
"Oh, that's right. Today we had dinner at the inn of Sister-in-law Osmanthus and ......"
"Idiot."
Yuan Shou suddenly slapped the table, looking excited.
Xiao Wu was startled, looked at Yuan Shou's face, and said in a low voice: "Senior brother...... You ......"
"Don't you suspect that the water in that shop is poisonous?"
Yuan Shou asked.
Xiao Wu nodded, and suddenly thought that something was wrong: "Senior brother, did Senior Brother Akiba tell you?" ”
"In that case, how can you still live there and eat food there? Don't want to die? Xiao Wu patted his head and understood, and said with a slight smile, "Senior brother, don't worry, there are two people who are invincible to poison, and I am not afraid." ”
Yuan Shou snorted coldly, noncommittal.
"Miss Ye used the agitation method to stimulate the osmanthus sister-in-law and brother, there should be some action tonight, I see the osmanthus sister-in-law's face is white and scary, he knows that Lao Jia is poisoned, this is called deep affection, and he began to pretend to be something, reprimanding Lao Jia for driving him away, but as soon as he heard that Uncle Lao Jia was poisoned, he almost fainted in a hurry, and said that the woman's heart was needled, hehe, it's true." Xiao Wu said and secretly glanced at Yuan Shou, and when he saw Yuan Shou's expressionless face, he added, "How deep her feelings for Uncle Jia are, I'm afraid I don't know it, right?" ”
"Wordy, and then what? Have you decided to act tonight? ”
"That depends on whether the Agen siblings will really make trouble, I don't think it's far from ten. However, when I came back, I found that there was something wrong with the temple in the back mountain. ”
Yuan Shou frowned: "What temple wishes?" ”
"It's the one in the Land Temple, looking at an inconspicuous person, but he can clearly tell the direction of Ling'er's soul going to the sea, senior brother, don't you think it's strange?"
"Maybe it's just nonsense, deliberately defrauding people of money."
Yuan Shou disagreed.
"And that person's mana is very strong, and I can't stop him with a wave of dust."
"Haha, that's your own low mana, you never want to study hard, now you know that there are people outside the world, right?"
Yuan Shou laughed at him.
When Xiao Wu first started, his master was old, and he had to manage all kinds of things, so he threw Xiao Wu to Yuan Shou, although Yuan Shou was only fifteen or sixteen years old at that time, but since he was a child, it can be said that Xiao Wu's skills are basically taught by this senior brother, Xiao Wu has always respected this senior brother and obeyed his orders, listening to Yuan Shou say this, think about if that person really has some advanced skills, how can he live in the land temple, maybe he is too worried. He smiled and reported to Yuan Shou about his work in Shanghai.
Yuan Shou nodded and praised: "Yes, I didn't expect you to do so well, and inherit your uncle's mantle and be a good official in the future." “
Xiao Wu was a little bad: "Actually, I was confused at first, I didn't know what to do at all, or Miss Ye...... They're really capable people. ”
Yuan Shou heard him mention Ye Quan, and said indifferently: "Yes, Ye Yuan has some skills, so I used her last time." ”
Xiao Wu really wanted to ask if the last sentence was really just a use, but he still swallowed the words to his mouth, and then said: "Senior brother, I'll go back and prepare, and then go down the mountain after dark, and I must find out the poisoned camel, senior brother...... Do you want to ......?"
"You can do these mundane things alone." Yuan Shou's voice was cold.
