The moment I looked out the window, the sun had completely set, and the last rays of sunlight disappeared with it.

"Xiao Ming, it's okay, right?" The master helped me out of bed, and his expression was full of concern. I felt warm in my heart and very moved. For me, the master is actually my father.

The old monk with a string of prayer beads around his neck and eating chicken legs while drinking wine said in a puff: "Old man Jiang, you are too unkind. The background of this little apprentice you accepted is known to the old man Gao and the people who have passed through the yin, but I was kept in the dark. What's the matter, are you afraid that I will do the right thing for heaven? ”

The old monk seemed a little unhappy, but I could hear it from his words. My life experience, obviously, should be more than what the master told me to pick up in the broken temple, there should be a hidden secret, but the master didn't tell me.

In my heart, the master is the sky, and since he didn't tell me, it means that there must be his considerations and reasons, and I don't plan to ask. What's more, I still have a vague premonition that once my life experience is completely revealed, something bad will happen.

The master smiled bitterly: "Old bald donkey, don't talk about these things now." One of my enemies is about to be killed, you should have heard me say before, this person's name is Jiang Xuan, and he is my fellow disciple. More than ten years ago, I controlled the blood demon and devoured it, but I don't know what special reason not only did he not die, but he also fused with the blood demon. I guess it's become a half-human, half-ghost thing, and now it's coming to me for revenge. ”

The Yin Man, who was wrapped in a black robe and couldn't see his face clearly, spoke sullenly, and his voice was cold and hoarse: "Bloody...... It's a very powerful ghost.,I've only heard my predecessor mention it.,I've never seen it.,It's good to see it this time.。 ”

The atmosphere in the room was very solemn, and the master seemed reluctant to talk to them about my background in front of me now. The most important thing now is to deal with Jiang Xuan's revenge, but unfortunately I am too young and I don't have too strong ability, so in this room, I can only listen to the four elders discussing with each other, but I can't help much. I sat on the side, closed my eyes, emptied my head, and entered a state of quiet rest.

The master once told me that because the designer of the dark banknote needs to deal with yin and yang things, it is inevitable that he will be contaminated with some yin and evil qi that does not belong to the living. If these yin and evil qi accumulate in small amounts, they will cause very serious harm to a person. Therefore, it is necessary to meditate from time to time, and through some special means, the yin energy contaminated in one's body is dissipated. Even if there is none, such meditation is very good for one's soul.

The night was getting deeper and deeper, and through the window, I could already see the moon rising and hanging high in the night sky, blooming with a cold light. Looking at the thick darkness of the night outside, I couldn't hold my breath and was nervous, so I couldn't sit and meditate anymore. When I opened my eyes, I found that the master and the four of them were also sitting in four different directions with their eyes closed, obviously waiting for Jiang Xuan's arrival.

At this moment, I suddenly noticed that just outside the window, a white figure was hanging!

The figure was dressed in white linen, and its long black hair hung down, fluttering out of the window. It reminds me of the shadow puppet show I used to watch in the theater above town. That's right, the woman in white hung out of the window as if she were a white shadow puppet.

I was taken aback, quickly took a few steps back, and shouted loudly: "Master, master, there is ...... Something is coming in! ”

As soon as these words came out, all four people in the room opened their eyes at the same time. The master nodded calmly: "Don't worry, we have a yin and ghost difference here, and it has a natural deterrent effect on this kind of yin ghost thing, she doesn't dare to do anything." ”

Sure enough, the female ghost in white who looked like a shadow puppet was suspended motionless outside the window, without any next move. Then, the female ghost suddenly looked up, and through the gap in the black hair, a pair of blood-red eyes could be seen, and then a voice was heard.

"Hehe, senior brother, we meet again."

It was obviously coming from the mouth of this female ghost, but it was the voice of a gloomy middle-aged man. This voice alone makes people feel that this should be a ruthless and unscrupulous ruthless person. Yes, this is my uncle, Jiang Xuan!

"Amitabha, good, good. I didn't expect to be able to see the magic of manipulating ghosts in such a small place, which was really beyond the expectations of the poor monks. The old monk folded his hands, lowered his eyes, and said lightly. Speaking directly, I felt a strange invisible fluctuation spreading out of his body.

I didn't expect that this wine and meat monk, who likes to drink wine and eat meat, really has a bit of the demeanor of a monk at this time, and the master's friends are really not ordinary people!

"Senior brother, I haven't seen you for more than ten years. Are you getting less and less courageous, or are you saying that you don't dare to face me alone, but you need to find such a big room of helpers? Passing through the yin, monk...... There's one more, the ghost chap! The female ghost spat out Jiang Xuan's voice again.

This time, after finishing speaking, the female ghost suddenly opened her mouth, and spit out a mouthful of black gas, as if it was an arrow, and went straight to the master, and the master raised his hands upward, and a large amount of yellow paper money flew up. The black breath collided with the paper money, making a soft pop. The black gas dissipated, and the yellow paper money suddenly turned black and rotten, turning into a pile of powder.

I was short of breath, it was the first time I had really seen such a tense fight! When I was eight years old in Reservoir Village, the confrontation with the starving man was a bit anticlimactic, and somehow it ended after I entered his memory, far less exciting and shocking than today's close-up observation.

"I said Old Man Jiang, is this guy really your junior brother? I don't think it's like a means of a designer of the banknote, but it's a bit like the ...... over there in Maoshan."

The master shook his head: "I haven't seen you for more than ten years, and I don't know what Jiang Xuan's experience is, I think it's because I have long turned my back on the master and learned the spells of other families, and it's all some ruthless things." ”

"But if that's all there is, there's no need for all four of us to come. Don't be sneaky, show your true identity, and manipulate a low-level ghost to come over, just adding to the joke. The person who couldn't see his face clearly said lightly, his voice was hoarse.

"Hehe, what, senior brother, do you really think I'm a reckless man like you? He came straight to you to seek revenge. I'm just here tonight. Four people, very good, worthy of my shot, your souls and corpses are treasures. ”

As she spoke, the blood-red female ghost stretched out her tongue and licked her lips, her expression was very hideous, staring at us as if a poisonous snake was staring at its prey. This feeling made me feel uncomfortable all over my body, and my back was cold. During the whole process, Jiang Xuan never looked at me, or in his opinion, I was like an ant, he could pinch me to death with one finger, which was not worth noting at all.

"Noise!"

The Yin Man snorted coldly, and with a wave of his sleeves, there seemed to be a ripple spreading in the air, and at the same time, I sensed a force flying towards the Yin Man! This strange power has a feeling that makes me feel a little familiar, but I don't know why it feels so familiar.

The force that suddenly appeared out of nowhere suddenly burrowed into the body of the Yin Man, and the air around him seemed to freeze for a moment, and then I saw an incredible scene.

The Yin Man had been sitting on the bench, but suddenly he stood up, took a few steps forward, and then spoke. But when he opened his mouth, I was startled, because he actually made a woman's voice!

This is strange, this person who has passed the yin is obviously a man, why is he talking like a woman in her fifties now?

"Daughter, daughter...... I'm your mother. Your soul is still wandering, come to Mom, come with me to the underground, that's where we should go. Daughter, daughter ......"

As soon as this voice appeared, the body of the long-haired female ghost who was originally controlled by Jiang Xuan suddenly trembled violently, as if something unusual had happened.

"Daughter, let's go......"

A woman's voice continued from the black-robed man's mouth, calling out to the long-haired female ghost. At this time, I suddenly woke up, and the master once explained to me that the Yin Man is the ability to directly communicate with the souls of the dead without the help of ghosts or some existing rules in the underworld. Therefore, this is his targeting of this female ghost, and he directly invited this female ghost to, wanting to directly calm the resentment of this female ghost, and then it will dissipate directly and no longer be controlled by Jiang Xuan.

Sure enough, the female ghost trembled a few times, and then regained her composure, but instead of making a man's voice, she lowered her head and let out a muffled cry, which was obviously the female ghost's soul itself. Then approached the Yin Man, and when I was about to approach him, I saw a transparent shadow suddenly fly out of the Yin Man's body, as if it was the outline of a slightly chubby middle-aged woman, and the brush collided with the white-clothed long-haired female ghost, and disappeared without a trace at the same time, leaving only a faint thank you that seemed to echo in the room.

"Amitabha, our Buddhists say that everything has a cause and effect, but I didn't expect you people to be so proficient in the use of the law of cause and effect. Admire, admire, admire. ”

"To eat this meal, you need to know a little bit of craftsmanship." The Yin Man said lightly.

"Haha, it's amazing, it seems that there are some good players near these two river towns. But don't worry, the show has just begun, and when the sun rises tomorrow, you will find some interesting things, this game, play slowly! ”

The sound was made by a toad folded out of white paper money lying on top of the window. Its two eyes are dotted with red cinnabar, and it is unknown when it appeared on the windowsill. After Jiang Xuan's words came out of the toad's mouth, it exploded with a thud, and a stream of red smoke spread out.

"Corpse poison! Xiao Ming, come here! ”

The master reminded loudly, apparently he was most worried about me. The other three people are very powerful, and the corpse poison produced by the self-explosion of this paper money toad should not have much impact on them, but it is estimated that it will cause some damage to me. So as soon as the master spoke, I quickly retreated, and with a whoosh retreated to a place close to the door.

The red corpse poison flew everywhere like dust, and was finally absorbed by the master with the divine money, and then dissipated along with those divine money.

Silence returned to the room. After a long time, the old man sighed: "I said old man Jiang, your junior brother is a little difficult." In such a confrontation, the four of us did not have much advantage, and we were psychologically pressed by him. I see, he's not just trying to trouble you, but he's probably going to do something to the whole of Two Rivers. It's a big deal, it's troublesome! If this kind of person dies, he will definitely be able to toss it too, and I hope that when the time comes, he will either lose his soul or not die in the realm under my control. ”

The old monk clasped his hands together and said lightly: "Amitabha, it seems that these two river towns are not going to be peaceful. My Buddha, with compassion, seems to have to plan well to get rid of this scourge. ”

Obviously, it was Jiang Xuan's last message through the paper money toad that made the master and several of them feel heavy in their hearts. I almost understood what he meant, that Jiang Xuan was using the people of the entire Lianghe Town as a threat, and wanted to have an unfair fight with the master!

If he wants to involve the ordinary people of the entire Two Rivers Town, then he may have to attack the ordinary people in the town. A demon like him, who knows all kinds of evil arts, is easy to deal with ordinary people who are defenseless and defenseless in this regard.

"Guys, it's not my business anymore. We should go out immediately now and patrol the entire Lianghe Town, in case Jiang Xuan suddenly attacks the ordinary people in the town. The master said with some anxiety, he was not afraid that Jiang Xuan would fight with them, but he was worried that Jiang Xuan would anger the residents of the entire Lianghe Town.

"However, in this case, if we go separately to inspect the entire Lianghe Town, will we fall for your junior brother's plan again and be defeated by each other? Although I'm not afraid of him, since he can fuse the extremely rare fierce ghost of the Blood Demon and learn the ruthless spells of other Taoist sects, I'm afraid it will be more troublesome. The Yin Man calmly analyzed.

He does have a point. Unexpectedly, before the real fighting method began, Jiang Xuan used his own unscrupulous advantage to create a dilemma for us that was difficult to handle at both ends.

Should you go out and pay close attention to the wind and grass in the town, or stay in the house and wait until dawn to see what Jiang Xuan means? Both options can be a bit difficult to decide.

In the end, the master decided to wait until dawn to see what was going on. After all, Jiang Xuan must have been prepared for a long time, but we were forced to fight, and the time was very urgent, so it was better to wait and see what happened.

So, that night, all five of us didn't go out in the shop. As soon as it dawned the next day, the master and the others immediately opened the door and walked out into the street, wanting to see what Jiang Xuan was going to do!

Because it was just dawn, there were still very few pedestrians on the street, and only occasionally some self-employed businesses opened up to welcome customers. In the early 90s, self-employed people in the town were still very rare, so when you walked down the street, you only saw two or three shops with the lights on, and everyone else was still asleep.

Four of us adults and one child walked down the foggy streets in the morning, which gave it a very quirky feeling. Especially the identity of these people, a master and apprentice of a banknote shop, a monk, a ghost, and a yin. If this is known by ordinary people, it is estimated that they will be directly scared to death.

After walking around the town of the two rivers a few times, I didn't find anything out of the ordinary.

"It's strange, it can't be that Jiang Xuan didn't start, right?" I scratched my head and asked a little strangely. But I don't know why, I just felt a little uneasy in my heart, as if something big must have happened. I have had such a keen sixth sense since I was a child, and I will have a certain sense before something bad happens, and now I have this feeling.

The master frowned, and then the short, fat old man with the white beard said, "Old man Gao, you are also a part-time ghost. You should be very sensitive to the breath of someone dying in vain, hurry up and use your ability to see if there are any grievances from people who have just died near these two river towns. ”

The white-bearded ghost almost nodded, then closed his eyes, as if silently and earnestly. But after a while, he still opened his eyes, looked very tired and shook his head suspiciously: "No, I don't feel the smell of people who died in vain, which means that last night, no one died in the town of Two Rivers. This is strange, didn't Jiang Xuan put down his cruel words and attack the residents of the entire Lianghe Town? ”

"No, no, Jiang Xuan won't give up so easily, there must be something we haven't considered, in these two river towns, is there a place where the yin qi is heavier or more special, let's think about it."

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in my head, and I thought of a place. The legend of that place is more evil, and the little babies in the town don't dare to go when they play!
