Chapter 39: Ghost Hunting
I was excited for a moment, and the yang energy on my body emanated, and I was about to disperse Zhang Yuan's soul.
Zhang Yuan wailed and said hurriedly: "Quickly dodge." "
I didn't have time to think about it, so I hurriedly took a step back, and then quickly restrained the yang energy.
After a long while, Zhang Yuan's screams slowly stopped.
I stood far away and didn't dare to go over, and asked Zhang Yuan, "What now?" "
Zhang Yuan slowed down for a while and said slowly: "I can't live without a body. Otherwise, sooner or later, it will be swept away by yang energy. "
I nodded: "I'll find a way to get your body back." "
Zhang Yuan shook his head: "It's useless, you can't do it." The coffin shop was too evil, I just jumped in, and before I knew what was going on, my soul was knocked out, and if it wasn't for a little effort under my hands, I wouldn't have been able to escape at all. Last time, you and the abbot were fortunately just lying on the wall, otherwise, you would never have been able to get out again. Now that my body should be in a coffin, I can't think of any way to get it out. "
I anxiously asked, "What then?" "
Zhang Yuan was silent for a while, and then said, "Perhaps, there is someone who can help us." But I'm not sure, Xu You, you beg him well. "
I nodded and asked, "Who is it?" Who can help us? "
Zhang Yuan said: "The old man with three beds. I've been lying in a coffin for so many years, and all my former friends are gone. Although the old man of the third bed has not known each other for a long time, I can see that he is not a bad person, and he should agree to help us. "
I was puzzled and asked: "When we forced him to give up the blood contract, we are enemies with him, will he help us?" "
Zhang Yuan sighed: "This, I can only resign myself to fate." "
I asked, "How do I find him?" "
Zhang Yuan said: "Go to Li Xiaoxing's house." Li Xiaoxing's mother once engaged him to a blood contract. Clues, follow the vine, you look for it yourself. "
I nodded in agreement and hurried out: "I'll go right away." "
Over there, Zhang Yuan stopped me: "Wait." You find a place with a heavy yin qi and put me away, otherwise, before you come back, I will already be gone. "
I scratched my head: "Which yin qi is heavy?" "
Zhang Yuan said two words with difficulty: "Thatched house." "
If it weren't for the fact that things weren't going to be good right now, I would have wanted to be happy.
However, it's right to think about it. The thatched houses of the Great Sage Temple are low and small, and even if you go in the daytime, it is cold. It is indeed the place where the yin qi is the heaviest.
I picked up the basin of water and said to Zhang Yuan, "Master, bear with me, old man." "Then I put the water in the hut.
By the time I got back to the main hall, the lantern had already lit on its own. And the abbot was still snoring and sleeping.
I nudged him: "Abbot? Abbot? "
The abbot opened his eyes in a daze and asked, "Master Zhang is back?" "
I nodded, "It's back." "
The abbot opened his eyes blankly and looked around: "Why can't I see it?" "
I dragged him up from the futon: "The spirit has returned, but the man has not returned." "
The abbot was taken aback: "Then what to do?" "
I pulled him outside, and at the same time told him to lock the door: "Said on the way." "
The abbot and I flagged down a taxi and said casually, "Chengxi Paper Shop." "
Who knew that the taxi had not moved for a few minutes.
I couldn't help but wonder: "Master, why don't you leave?" "
The taxi driver turned around: "Dude, did you bring any money, let me see it first." "
I looked up and said, "Yo, didn't I play that driver twice?" "
I waved my hand: "I have money, who said I don't have money?" "I touched my pocket, oh no, I really didn't have any money.
I looked at the abbot: "Take the money." "
The abbot spread his hands: "I woke up just now and asked you to pull it out, how can I have time to get the money?" "
The driver's face immediately pulled down: "If you don't have any money, get out of here." "
At this time, I was so anxious that I hurried to Li Xiaoxing's house. I didn't care about anything, so I reached out and pulled out the peachwood sword in my arms, and then put it on the driver's neck: "Do you want to go?" "
The driver nodded.
I handed the mahogany sword to the abbot: "Look at him." Then I took out my mobile phone and called Li Xiaoxing.
After a while, Li Xiaoxing answered, and I asked Li Xiaoxing, "Where are you?" "
Li Xiaoxing's voice was confused and said, "At home." What's wrong? I'm sleeping. "
I said, "I'll go to your house now." Was your mom discharged from the hospital? "
Li Xiaoxing said: "I have been discharged from the hospital a long time ago. Are you coming now? They're all asleep, or tomorrow morning. "
I said, "It's good to be at home, I'll be there in ten minutes." "
On the way, I briefly talked to the abbot about Zhang Yuan.
The abbot was shocked when he heard this: "All your bodies are lost? Your master is so powerful that he is not the opponent of the coffin shop, Xu You, what should we do with the two of us? "
I sighed, "Let's get him back alive first." "
Soon, Li Xiaoxing's house arrived. This time, the abbot and I didn't have to run away, opened the car door, and walked down with a big. I believe that the driver did not have the guts to chase us.
However, I was wrong.
The driver got out of the car and shouted, "Wait. "
I flashed the peachwood sword in my hand: "How is it?" "
The driver obediently stood a few steps away, waved his hand and said, "Don't get me wrong, I heard you chatting just now, as if I heard you catching ghosts?" "
I looked at him, "What's wrong?" "
The driver scratched his head: "I've had something happen recently, it seems that I have encountered something dirty, can you two go there?" If you are willing to go, how about taking a car without money in the future? "
I waved my hand: "Busy, no time." Didn't you hear what we just said? I'm in a hurry to save people. "
The driver was about to cry: "Master, when are you done?" It's really not good, so it's good to leave a phone call. "
Impatiently, I pulled out a business card from my pocket, threw it to him, and left.
When the abbot and I rushed to Li Xiaoxing's house, we saw that the door was closed, so the two of us began to slam the door.
After a while, the lights came on inside. An aunt with unkempt hair came out of the door, pointed at me and the abbot and scolded: "What are you doing in the middle of the night? "
I was startled, took a closer look at her face, and said, "Ah, Auntie, are you discharged from the hospital?" "
It was none other than Li Xiaoxing's mother who opened the door.
Mama Li obviously recognized me, and couldn't help but be surprised: "Are you Xu You?" What are you doing here? Come on in. "
Obviously, Master and I helped her when we were in the hospital, and she was very grateful to us.
When the abbot and I followed Mama Li to the house, we saw Li Xiaoxing also walking out sleepy-eyed.
Li Xiaoxing yawned and asked, "Xu You, what's wrong?" In the middle of the night, you're tossing and turning. "
I sat down with the abbot and said, "We are both here for the ghost of your family from before. "
As soon as I said this, Li Ma and Li Xiaoxing instantly woke up from sleep, and the two of them shivered and asked in unison, "That old guy is back again?" "
I hurriedly waved my hand: "Don't worry, it's okay, he didn't come back." "
Mother Li breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Then who are you?" "
I said, "I have to find him, do you know where to find him?" "
Mother Li shook her head: "You can't find anyone who can catch ghosts, how can I find it?" "
I expected Mama Li to answer like this, so I asked her, "How did you make a blood contract with her?" "
Mother Li thought for a while and said, "That was many years ago, when Xiaoxing was still young. I was alone with him, and life was very difficult, and one night, I was crying alone. Crying and crying and falling asleep. Then in my dream, an old man told me that he was willing to help me. As long as I do what he says, I won't have to worry about money in the future. After I woke up, I did what he said, offering paper figures, dripping blood or something, and life really got better. "
The abbot was worried: "According to this, the old man came to the door by himself?" Xu You, how can we find it? "
I shook my head, "This is different from what Master said. Master has made it very clear that ghosts never harm people for no reason. Mama Li, think about it carefully, have you ever seen this old man before? Maybe you once owed him money or something. "
Mother Li shook her head: "No." I don't know him. "
For a time, the situation reached an impasse.
It was already early in the morning, and Li Xiaoxing and Li's mother were sitting in the living room with us, and the two of them yawned vigorously.
I sighed: "Auntie, otherwise you should sleep first, and then help us think about it when you wake up." "
Mother Li nodded and went back to sleep.
I couldn't sleep at all, and I sat in the room and thought with a sad face. The abbot had already slept before, and he was not sleepy for the time being. So accompany me to talk nonsense in the east and west.
When it was getting brighter, we both couldn't help but fall asleep on the couch.
I don't know how long I slept and then was woken up by Li's mother.
When I opened my eyes, I saw Mama Li and Li Xiaoxing holding cloth bags in their hands, looking like they were going out.
Li's mother said: "Xu You, Xiaoxing and I have to go out, you can wait at home for a while." "
I rubbed my eyes and sat up, "Oh, what are you going to do?" "
Li's mother said, "Hey, go to his father's grave." It's not too early, in case it's late, it's weird and scary. "
Li Xiaoxing nodded: "When I was a child, I went to the grave late, and I didn't burn the paper until midnight, but when I got home, I started to have nightmares, and I have been doing it for more than ten years." "
I nodded, and suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed through my mind: "Wait, why don't I feel right?" "
Seeing my solemn expression, Mama Li asked me, "What's wrong?" "
My mind was racing through the words "Nightmare, Grave, Nightmare, Blood Pact, Grave"
I suddenly opened my eyes and asked, "Auntie, did you just go to the grave the day you dreamed of the old man?" "
Mama Li thought about it and nodded.
I laughed loudly: "I know that the old man is in the cemetery." "
However, the abbot shook his head: "Xu You, have you forgotten?" That old man is out of body, he is not a real ghost, how can he be in the cemetery? "
