Chapter 7 Use her as a sparring partner for you
"I'm ......," the female ghost paused and said, "I'm sorry! I didn't mean to! Originally, I just wanted the little master to know what I had suffered, but in the end, when I saw that the little master was incomplete and could communicate with ghosts, I had the evil intention to get out of here and avenge myself! Little master, I'm sorry! ”
Hearing the female ghost's apology, I hurriedly waved my hand, but thinking that she couldn't see my gesture in the jar, I quickly said, "It's okay, it's okay!" ”
"Master, I beg you, if you can't get the punishment that wicked person deserves, even if your soul is scattered, I will be unwilling!" The female ghost still begged unrelentingly. I couldn't bear it, and looked at Zhang Guanshan in the hope that he would release the female ghost. Zhang Guanshan sighed, "It's not that I won't let you go, but there is a terrible ghost in the ancestral training of the Zhang family that cannot be let go." But since my apprentices are interceding for you, I can stop you for the time being, take you with me, and when you find the enemy who killed you, I will release you out to take revenge!" ”
"Thank you, Master, thank you, Master! Only, Master, how can you find my enemy if you take me away? The female ghost was very grateful but also a little puzzled, after all, she didn't know where the person who killed her had gone!
"We don't know, but the owner of this shop must know!" As soon as I interjected, Zhang Guanshan glanced at me approvingly.
"Thank you, master, thank you, little master! Your great kindness and great virtue I Zhou Qianqian remember, as long as I use it in the future, even if I go to the sword mountain and go down to the sea of fire, I will not give up! The female ghost was grateful.
"Okay, you can practice well in the altar. It's not early, we still have to rest! After Zhang Guanshan finished speaking, he pinched out a handprint with his right hand and slapped it on the altar, and the jar that was still glowing with black gas just now immediately disappeared without a trace, and the jar became the most ordinary jar!
Zhang Guanshan dragged me back to our room, he closed the door and said to me, "Lin Xi, it is good to have a good heart, but Taoist people must also have their own principles!" Devils' hearts are as unpredictable as people's hearts, and you must not believe all what they say, or you will be the one who suffers! Of course, we must also do what we promised others, especially what we promised to ghosts, and the revenge of ghosts is terrible! You have to remember not to make promises to ghosts. Today, the master left this female ghost to see that her nature is pure and good, and she can use her to exercise your spiritual wisdom and Taoism in the future! ”
"I remember, master!" I nodded, understanding Zhang Guanshan's good intentions and grateful.
"Good boy! Go to sleep! "Zhang Guanshan touched my head and turned off the light!
"Master, since this female ghost is so easy to catch, then why do you still use the door sealing array to seal the gate?" Lying on the bed, I turned over twice and still said the doubts in my heart.
"Haha...... Zhang Guanshan smiled heartily, "Lin Xi, that's for the shopkeeper to see!" When we collect money from others, we want to make people feel at ease! If we don't do anything and catch ghosts directly, he won't believe it, and he won't be at ease! So, there are things you don't need but you have to do, not for your own convenience but for the convenience of others! ”
"Oh!" I still don't understand a little, but I take my master's words to heart.
The next morning, the innkeeper prepared a rich breakfast with hot white bread, peanut porridge and a few side dishes. In this era of scarcity of materials, it is the rich family who can eat fresh meat buns in the morning. I used to eat at home in the morning with a bowl of half-dried porridge. So, when I saw the meat buns, my eyes lit up with gold.
The innkeeper greeted us warmly, "Master, little master, come and have breakfast!" ”
"Thank you!" Even though I wanted to grab a big white bun and eat it, I held back! I walked slowly to the table, and when Zhang Guanshan sat down, I sat down again, and I didn't rush to move my chopsticks. Zhang Guanshan saw that I was able to control my desires, and nodded with satisfaction.
"Thank you boss!" Zhang Guanshan was polite to the innkeeper for a while before picking up the chopsticks, holding a bun and placing it on the plate in front of me.
"Thank you, master!" I picked up the bun and ate it in a big gulp. The innkeeper saw that there was only a small half of the bun left in my hand, so he put another one on my plate, "Little master, eat slowly!" Drink some porridge and don't choke! ”
"Thank you!" My mouth was stuffed with buns, and my speech was a little unclear. The innkeeper waved his hand politely, and asked carefully, "Master, how is that ghost?" ”
Zhang Guanshan took out the small jar containing the female ghost from his bag, "The female ghost has been put in this jar by me!" ”
The innkeeper looked at the small jar with a look of fear and suspicion on his face, "In this jar?" Zhang Guanshan saw the expression on the innkeeper's face and smiled faintly. Draw a sigil on the jar with your hand, and then take a bun and put it in front of the jar, "This bun tastes good, you taste it!" ”
"Thank you!" The voice of the female ghost was heard in the jar, and then the bun turned black and gray at a speed visible to the naked eye. The innkeeper fell off his stool in fright, and looked at the jar with a look of horror.
Zhang Guanshan drew a sigil on the jar with his finger and put the jar away. He didn't speak, just ate his breakfast in silence. It was only when we were almost finished with breakfast that the innkeeper reacted. He got up from the ground, ran into the house, and ran out again. He walked up to Zhang Guanshan and respectfully handed over three ten-yuan bills with both hands, "Master, thank you for helping me collect the ghosts in that house!" This is a little bit of my heart, please accept it! ”
Zhang Guanshan only took two bundles, "The boss originally said two hundred, I will only accept two hundred." I have a question for you, though! ”
The innkeeper immediately nodded and said, "If the master has any questions, just ask, as long as I know, I will tell them!" Zhang Guanshan stared at the innkeeper and asked, "What was the name of the previous owner of the inn?" Where has he gone now? ”
"The previous owner of this hotel was called Zheng Hongwei, and a while ago I heard his aunt say that one of his relatives opened a restaurant in southern Jiangsu, so he went over to help! However, I don't know where the specific is in southern Jiangsu! "The innkeeper has nothing to hide. Over there in southern Jiangsu? Isn't it just Zhang Guanshan's side? That's great! I was overjoyed.
"Good! I know! I helped you collect the female ghost, you must not spread it! Although the female ghost has been taken in by me, because the female ghost has stayed for too long and is resentful, it is easy to attract other lonely ghosts. As long as you don't tell anyone about female ghosts, you won't be known by ghosts. You only need to smoke the room with wormwood every day, and the yin will be dissipated after smoking for 7749 days! But if you talk too much, then I won't be able to control if a lonely ghost sneaks in! Zhang Guanshan said with a straight face, and the innkeeper quickly nodded when he heard this, "Master, don't worry, I remember!" ”
