The gray-robed Taoist priest nodded: "I heard that this poor master is escorting a repeat offender into the provincial capital, I don't know where that repeat offender is?" ”

I hurriedly chimed in: "Yes, yes... He's been in the official's house all the time! ”

Arrest Kuai's face changed, and he immediately vetoed: "No, the official said that he is a repeat offender, and he is an extremely dangerous person, if he is released, what if he hurts someone?" ”

"I didn't tell you to untie your shackles and shackles, just rub blood on your forehead. Besides, with the official here, we are not afraid. The woman in white said with a smile.

"This..."Catcher's face was cloudy, and he could see that he still wanted to refute, but he couldn't. The others gradually looked at him suspiciously.

The gray-robed Taoist priest said: "I don't know what the official is embarrassed about?" ”

Catcher gritted his teeth: "Yes!" I'll take him out, but you can't play any tricks other than rubbing blood on his forehead. Hurry up and solve it, the official still has to hurry! After saying that, he was about to go to the backyard in a hurry, and the white-clothed Dao Gu also followed.

I hurriedly said, "I'll go catch a rooster in the shed!" "Lift your leg and leave.

"Not busy." The gray-robed Taoist priest said, "I'll talk about it when they come back." After saying that, he closed his eyes and rested his mind. The farmer also nodded: "Yes, yes, it's better not to act alone in this situation..."

The air was quiet again.

"I don't know—" The gray-robed Taoist priest suddenly said, "What kind of illness does Madame have?" ”

In an instant, the atmosphere became strange again. It's obviously broad daylight, but it makes people feel gloomy for no reason.

"It's just a cold occasional feeling, it doesn't matter, you just can't see the wind." The farmer smiled kindly.

The gray-robed Taoist priest didn't say anything more.

Soon, there was the sound of jagged footsteps. A lotus white hand opened the curtain, and the white-clothed Daogu took the lead to walk out, and then a person with a cloth bag appeared behind, only to see that his hands and feet were cuffed, he walked a little staggeringly, and there was a bright big knife around his neck, and then he followed quickly.

"Oh my God!" The farmer sighed: "Not to mention the handcuffs and feet, even the head must be covered." What kind of evil is this prisoner? The farmer quickly shut up after glaring at him.

"It's been said before. Just rub some chicken blood on his forehead, right? Come on, what about the blood? "Look at the gray-robed Taoist priest.

The gray-robed Taoist priest looked at me: "Let's go and get blood together." I nodded, and led him to the henshed, where he picked the most majestic rooster, and we went back to the antechamber.

At this time, the catcher had already removed the cloth bag from the prisoner's head. I saw that the prisoner's face was full of scars, his eyes were full of fear, and he even had a strip of cloth stuffed into his mouth.

"Is this necessary?" The white-clothed Dao Gu smiled and said: "The poor master is so domineering, it doesn't look like the official style at all!" ”

The prisoner whined and tried to say something, but the large knife around his neck moved twice, and his eyes became more frightened.

Everyone saw that something was wrong.

Catch quickly said sharply: "What are you talking about? Still wiping blood? ”

The gray-robed Taoist didn't say anything, he took out the dagger and cut off the cockscomb very neatly, and the bright red blood flowed into the porcelain bowl. Subsequently, the Taoist priest dipped the two fingers of the cockscomb in the food and quickly applied it to the prisoner's forehead.

The rest of the people's hearts hung in their throats.

However, nothing happened.

"How? It has nothing to do with me, right? Catch Kuai sneered: "Okay, you all hurry up and wipe some of it, and hurry up when you're done." ”

"Wait a minute!" The gray-robed Taoist priest suddenly said, "If a person possessed by an evil spirit receives the blood of a's comb, the evil ghost will escape from his mouth. So, you have to remove the strip of cloth from its mouth. ”

Catching Kuai's face turned ugly, and I saw beads of sweat spilling down his forehead, and the situation suddenly became tense. He then took the knife around the prisoner's neck and threw him down.

Seeing that the situation was not right, I hurriedly said, "Or, a priori others, right?" Catching Kuai was visibly relieved, and the Ash Cannon Daoist didn't speak, as if he was thinking about it.

But the farmer suddenly spoke: "Actually, I have always felt that something is wrong. There is no reason for anyone here to release evil spirits, and it is this Taoist priest who talks to himself from beginning to end. I've heard that there is a gang of bandits in the vicinity who specialize in robbing passing merchants. Perhaps..."He paused and looked directly at the gray-robed Taoist priest: "Maybe you are pretending to be a bandit at all, you just want to delay time and trap us all here." Then when it gets dark, your accomplices will come here and rob us! ”

Everyone was shocked, and what he said seemed to make sense. Catch quickly immediately pointed the knife at the Taoist priest, and said hatefully: "I have long thought that you Taoist priest is pretending to be a ghost, and it turns out that you are playing this abacus." Grab your official's head! Just surrender obediently today, if you dare to resist this official, you will do the right thing for heaven! ”

The gray-robed Taoist priest looked at him coldly and was unmoved. The atmosphere dropped to freezing point. He turned to look at the farmer: "Now it's not me who is delaying time, but you who are delaying time." If everyone cooperates, this method of verifying the evil spirit can be completed in the time of half a pillar of incense. If you are open, why do you need so many words? Speaking of which..."The Taoist priest suddenly turned to the peasant wife, "Mrs. Zun is not quite right, she always hides behind you, and she has never said anything to see her." As far as I know, people who are weak and sick have the weakest yang energy, and they are susceptible to evil spirits. Otherwise, let's verify what Mrs. Zun is? Please take off your headscarf and wipe it as you like, and it won't take much trouble. If everyone is okay, then take me for blame! ”

I looked at the farmer, and his eyes became more and more fierce. I couldn't help but take a few steps back. Caught up in his grip on the knife and looked at the door, as if thinking about something. The prisoner looked at the knife on the side of his head in horror, and from time to time looked at the Taoist priest with longing eyes.

When I was at a loss, the white-clothed Taoist suddenly looked at the gray-robed Taoist priest: "Why did you lie just now?" As soon as she said this, everyone was shocked. The white-clothed Dao Gu pointed to the strip of cloth in the prisoner's mouth: "The evil ghost does not come out of the mouth of the possessed person, why do you lie to him?" ”

Hearing this, he suddenly pushed the prisoner, the prisoner staggered two steps and almost fell, the gray-robed Taoist priest wanted to help him, but he was forced to retreat by the fast knife. Quickly escorted the prisoner to the table that blocked the gate, then turned around and raised his bright knife to the gray-robed Taoist priest and said, "You Taoist priest has bad intentions, this official almost won't accompany you to play this ghost hunting game." I'm going to leave now, and see who dares to stop me!" ”

The farmer rolled his eyes and said to everyone: "This Taoist priest is very problematic, he lied to everyone, he must be trying to help this prisoner, he is really likely to be an accomplice of the bandits!" I think everyone should stop listening to him and leave together during the day. ”

My sweat also came out and I didn't know what to do. Actually, I also think that the catcher and the farmer are weird, but their suspicions are not unreasonable. I looked at the white-clothed Dao Gu again, and there seemed to be a faint smile on her face.

The gray-robed Taoist priest looked at the sky and frowned. Half an afternoon has passed, and the power of the demon will become stronger and stronger, but now the form has become so complicated, what should I do?

He and the farmer glanced at each other, and the two seemed to have reached a tacit understanding, and at the same time went to move the table, wanting to open the door and leave. This will allow four people to leave the hostel at the same time, and the demon will have a good chance of escaping.

The gray-robed Taoist priest handed me the bowl containing chicken blood, and immediately stepped forward to stop it. He was so athletic that he tried to pull the prisoner away, and the four of them scuffled. I was at a loss for what to do, and I didn't know who to pull when I wanted to step forward. The white-clothed Dao Gu didn't move, she just looked at all this coldly.

Although the Taoist priest is good at catching ghosts, he is only against ghosts after all. Both the catcher and the farmer had the intention of targeting him, and after a while, the Taoist priest was defeated. I hurriedly went to help him, and the farmer took advantage of the chaos to push him, and the Taoist priest hit me and knocked over the bowl. Then he opened the door and escorted the prisoner out of the hostel, glaring at the Taoist priest fiercely before leaving.

The farmer watched him leave along the mountain path in front of the door, then turned around and held his wife, and went out in the other direction.

I watched the four of them leave, sighed and helped the Taoist priest up: "Master, they are all gone, what should I do?" ”

The gray-robed Taoist priest took a breath and looked at the white-clothed Taoist girl: "Evil qi, has the evil qi disappeared?" ”

The white-clothed Daoist girl turned her head to look at me and opened her mouth to answer.

…

The prisoner was dragged and pushed away, and walked straight for several miles before stopping. He pushed the prisoner to the ground and cursed against the tree panting. The prisoner whined, kicked him, tore off the strip of cloth from his mouth, and scolded: "No, what? It's so fucking unlucky, you can still meet ghosts in a store, and you're almost exposed! ”

The prisoner gasped and cried, "How long are you going to tie me up?" ”

"Official," said Kuai, "What's the hurry?" You can rest assured! As long as you can get to the border smoothly, I will let you go. ”

The prisoner pleaded: "You stole my identity, and I am not your opponent now, you will trouble me with me, so you might as well let me go!" ”

"That won't do! If I let you go, the government will soon know that I ran away, and when the sea catches papers, I can still leave? Zhu Kuai sneered, raised his knife and pointed at the prisoner: "Official, get up!" Hit the road! ”

…

At this time, the farmer was pulling his wife along another road. Not long after running away, his sick wife got alive, tore off her headscarf, and said in a rough voice: "Damn, it's really hanging!" Fortunately, I ran away, otherwise I would have let the official see me like this, so how could I explain it clearly! I saw that this "peasant woman" was full of scum and had an Adam's apple.

The farmer said as he ran: "It's all to blame on that Taoist priest, if it weren't for him, we would have been able to rest again tonight." Now I'm going to run away again! I didn't take the baggage, I didn't have anything, I don't know where to stay tonight! ”

"Forget it," said his companion, "Actually, I wanted to run when I saw the official last night, but it was too suspicious to walk in the middle of the night." Now that we've finally escaped, let's go to the next county first, it's really not possible, we have to find a way to escape outside the border, it's impossible to still want us there, right? ”

The two men glanced at each other, stopped talking, gritted their teeth and continued to run.

…

Sunset, hostel, doors closed.

I was tied hand and foot and crouched in the corner. The gray-robed Taoist priest fell next to the chicken shed, with blood stains on his head. The white-clothed Daoist girl stood across from me with a faint smile on her face.

"You're the accomplice? Why are you helping demons? I looked at her coldly.

"I didn't help it, I had already destroyed it when I opened the soul talisman, and there were no evil ghosts for a long time."

"It turns out that you are so powerful, but unfortunately it is useless on the right path!" I sighed.

"It's not that I'm good. The Taoist priest didn't have to be so troublesome, who made him have to surpass the evil ghost? Dao Gu smiled: "Now I just need to kill you, and then frame the Taoist priest and say that he is swaggering and cheating, and no one will know about everything." And all the money here belongs to me! ”

I suddenly ...

"In fact, the reason why the Taoist priest deceived and arrested quickly was because he was moved by compassion, and he saw that the prisoner was wronged, so... If not, you might not be able to do it," I sighed.

The white-clothed Daoist girl smiled: "I can't be blamed for this. Catch ghosts or save people, you can only choose one! ”

"Alright, it's time for you to hit the road." The white-clothed Taoist girl approached me.

"I have one more question," I said, looking her in the eye.

"Say it!"

"You have also seen that in this barren mountains and mountains, there are people from the rivers and lakes, and there is no shortage of rogue gods and sticks, which is extremely unsafe. I don't have bodyguards in this hostel, how can I survive if I don't have a little self-defense? I said lightly.

The white-clothed Daoist aunt frowned and looked at me, as if she was lost in thought.

"The sun has finally set!" I glanced up at the sky and sighed, a green light flashing out of the corner of my eye.
