The abbot was a little nervous when he heard my voice, and hurriedly said, "Don't worry, I'll light the lamp, I'm a little scared." "

I grabbed him: "Don't, this matter has something to do with my master, you have a lamp, and when he sees the light on in this house, doesn't he suspect it?" "

The abbot struck a match and lit the candle: "Xu You, you are confused, if we don't light the lamp, we won't know what to do when your master comes." "

I quickly patted my head: "That's right, that's right. I'm confused. "

After the abbot lit the lamp, he looked around to make sure everything was safe, and then asked me, "What the hell is going on?" "

I thought about it and asked him, "Do you remember what the thin Taoist priest told us about the time when he met a water ghost by the river." "

The abbot touched his bald head: "Remember, what's wrong?" "

I looked out the window, it was pitch black, there was nothing unusual, and then I whispered, "At that time, the thin Taoist priest said that he saw the master walking over with a ghost. And the ghost had an iron chain tied to it. "

The abbot's eyes were blank: "What's wrong?" Ay? Your master is a Taoist priest, so it's normal to catch ghosts. "

I waved my hand: "But I heard another thing. This time, when I went to Li Xiaoxing's house, I met a driver who told me that he had seen Master hook his soul in the middle of the night. "

The abbot's eyes widened: "Hook the soul? "

I nodded: "That person's name is Mazi, it was good, the master hooked his soul away in the middle of the night, and the next day, Mazi died." "

The abbot seemed to understand what I meant, and began to tremble a little: "Black and white impermanence, bull head and horse face? "

I nodded, "Looks like it." "

The abbot's face was as dead as ashes: "Xu You, hurry up and get your master away from here, you have been with such a guy all day, and you can't live anymore?" "

I scratched my head, feeling like it was getting messy. I thought about it for a while, and said to my abbot: "There is no definite evidence for this matter, so we can't mess around." Zhang Yuan saved my life after all. Can't break his heart. In this way, the abbot will go and buy a shroud tomorrow. "

The abbot trembled all over: "What are you doing, who is buying it for?" "

I glared, "Buy it for the two of us." "

The abbot's face turned pale: "Xu You, don't scare me, are you going to prepare for the future?" "

I waved my hand: "This time, I learned a thing from Zhang Yuan. You prepare two sets of shrouds tomorrow, and then we'll talk about it when you come back. Okay, you go to sleep, I'll go back too. "

The abbot grabbed me: "Xu You, what are you kidding?" You told me in the middle of the night that there were so many gods and ghosts, did I dare to sleep? "

I said helplessly, "What else do you want to do?" "

The abbot gave way to the side: "Don't go, just sleep in my house, how about it?" "

I grinned, "In the same bed with you?" "

The abbot understood, and walked down from the bed with the quilt in his arms: "I sleep on the ground, do I sleep on the ground?" "

I sighed, "Okay. I fell headfirst on the abbot's bed and closed my eyes.

My mind flashed over and over again the past, how did I know Zhang Yuan, what he said and what he did. The more I think about it, the less solid I feel.

I rolled over and sat up, trying to consult with the abbot, but the abbot was already asleep and was lying on the ground snoring.

I smiled bitterly: "The abbot is really fat-hearted. That's it, still with me here? "

I sighed, listened to the abbot's snoring, and didn't sleep all night. Keep your eyes peeled white on the outside.

Then, I heard Zhang Yuan shouting in the courtyard: "Xu You, the rooster is crowing." Where did you go? "

I hurriedly put on my clothes and ran out. It was found that Zhang Yuan was standing in the courtyard in a monk's robe, looking around.

I felt a little uneasy in my heart, and called timidly, "Master." "

Zhang Yuan looked at me, and suddenly a mysterious smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Xu You, something is wrong with you kid." "

I chuckled in my heart, could I have seen it? I began to sweat on the door of my head, thinking: Zhang Yuan should not kill people and take my soul away.

While I was thinking nonsense, Zhang Yuan patted me on the shoulder, raised my chin, and looked at the abbot's room with a lewd smile: "What did you two do last night?" How did he get out of his room? Do you want to learn from that Mr. Ma and try something fresh? "

I was stunned: "Huh? "

Zhang Yuanha laughed and kicked at me: "Go and practice." "

I wiped the sweat from my head: "Fortunately, fortunately, it was a misunderstanding, it is better than doubting me." "

I sat on the ground and began to follow Zhang Yuan's teachings again, where I drew yin and yang. Cultivating Taoism. Actually, my mind was so full of chaos that I couldn't do anything at all.

During this period, the abbot once sneaked out of the house, and at noon he came back with a cloth bag, sneaky.

That same night, I went into the abbot's house again. I asked the abbot, "How's it going?" "

The abbot nodded: "No problem." Then he opened the cloth bag, and there were two shrouds inside.

The abbot handed me the shroud and said, "The clothes seller is too unauthentic, I told him my size, he didn't even measure, so he took two pieces and handed them to me." also said that a shroud can be put on. "

I took the shroud and put it on. Then he urged the abbot: "Put it on quickly." "

The abbot reluctantly put it on: "Xu You, what do you want to do?" "

I waved my hand, took out two incense sticks, lit them, one for each person. Then he led the abbot into the courtyard.

I whispered to my abbot: "This time I went out to learn from Zhang Yuan." Wearing a shroud and holding an incense stick in your hand, you can see ghosts. "

The abbot was terrified: "What are we going to do?" "

I pointed to Master's room: "If Master wants to hook the soul, he will definitely go out of his body, and when the time comes, the two of us will follow." "

The abbot nodded as if he didn't understand.

The two of us stayed on guard until the second half of the night, and found nothing.

Before dawn, the two of us went back in disgrace.

The second day, the third day, it was still the same. On the evening of the fourth day, the abbot was a little unhappy: "Xu You, you master and apprentice don't have any all day, one toss people during the day, and the other tosses people at night, are you playing with me?" You go by yourself tonight, I won't go. "

I waved my hand, "How can it?" Is it okay to stick to it for a day, one day at a time? "

The two of us were standing in the corner of the wall to discuss, and suddenly saw Zhang Yuan holding on to the door frame and shouting, "I won't eat dinner today, I'm a little sleepy." Then I saw him fall on the bed in a fainting position.

I was overjoyed, and hurriedly poked the abbot: "I guess it's today." You forgot? When he went to hook the soul two days ago, it was like this. "

The abbot followed me suspiciously, put on his shroud, and took incense in his hand.

By this time, it was already dark. The abbot and I looked into the courtyard. I saw a figure, just walking to the gate of the temple.

The abbot pointed to the figure and said, "Isn't that your master?" "

I nodded and whispered, "Keep up, keep up." "

The two of us tiptoed forward with incense in hand.

Zhang Yuan walked on the road like a late-night walk. When we passed the street lamp, the abbot and I could clearly see that there was no shadow of him.

Actually, it's not just Zhang Yuan who doesn't. Neither did me and the abbot. In the middle of the night, the yin qi is pervasive, wearing a shroud and twisting incense in your hands, which means that you are a ghost in the underworld, not a person from the world.

The two of us had walked for a while, and suddenly the abbot coughed softly in his throat, as if to alert me.

I was a little surprised, and looked at Zhang Yuan, it was normal, and he was still walking slowly along the river.

I looked at the abbot and asked with my eyes, "What's wrong?" "

The abbot winked at me, looking nervous.

It dawned on me that he wasn't looking at me, he was looking behind me.

My scalp was a little numb, and I tilted my head slightly, and swept it back with my peripheral vision.

With this scan, I found that a face was in the back of my head.

I was startled and was about to scream. But reason shut me up. At this time, I have to endure.

My legs started shaking and I couldn't walk at all. So I stood on the ground, slowly turned my head, and looked back.

An old lady was lying on my back, her face wrinkled and her body shrunk into a ball. She waited to look at me with curious eyes. I stared at her with nervous eyes.

Then the old lady grinned at me. Showing mutilated teeth.

I felt numb all over my body, and I almost fell.

After a few seconds, the old lady may not think I am interesting. He let me go and drifted away.

The abbot breathed a long sigh of relief and said to me, "It's terrible. Let's go. "

I looked back at him, and there was a small baby on the abbot's shoulder, and I felt a chill in my heart, and I couldn't help but take a step back.

The abbot whispered to me, "What's wrong?" "

I waved my hand: "It's nothing, it's nothing." "

The two of us continued to walk forward with incense.

Those little ghosts, did they climb on our shoulders and slip down from time to time. At the end of the day, we were finally surprised and able to face it calmly.

Sure enough, taking the first step is the most important thing. I think I'll be able to learn how to hunt ghosts next.

In the distance, Zhang Yuan stood at the door of a house, hovering here with his head down, and looking up at the sky from time to time.

The two of us didn't know what he was going to do. Far away in the corner.

After waiting for about half an hour, he finally walked into the house.

Five minutes later, he came out, followed by a woman. The woman followed him as if she were sleepwalking, staggering out.

The two of them had just walked to the middle of the street. Suddenly, I don't know whose dog it is, barked. Dogs and such a thing, all the calls, soon, the whole street was full of dog barking.

The woman who was originally groggy seemed to be awakened. Suddenly, he went crazy, rushed towards Zhang Yuan, and fought with him.

Zhang Yuan was empty-handed, and did not hold a peachwood sword, and tore with the woman for a while, the woman actually became more and more courageous, scolding and scratching, Zhang Yuan actually gradually fell behind.
