Chapter 18: Gone

Brother Cheng saw my doubts, he opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something to me, but when the words came to his mouth, he swallowed them again, he just sighed helplessly and said to me, "Let's go." ”

I nodded lightly and followed closely behind Brother Cheng, walking towards the depths of this grass and trees.

This road did not take long, a few minutes later, I saw a farmhouse wooden house standing not far away, the door of the wooden house was slightly hidden, after approaching, Brother Cheng gently pushed the door open, and we walked in together.

The room was simply furnished, and an old man with gray hair and a wrinkled face sat in a rocking chair, reading a heavy book intently, and only looked up at us when he heard the movement.

He casually swept over my face, and when he saw Brother Cheng, a hint of surprise flashed across his wrinkled face.

"Master. Brother Cheng stepped forward and saluted.

The old man withdrew his gaze and looked at the book without making a sound, but Brother Cheng did not have a trace of anger, his attitude was humble, and he still maintained a saluting posture.

When I thought of the female ghost, I didn't care about the relationship between them, so I went straight to the point and said: "Dao Chief, we have something to ask you for this time, in a villa in the rich area of M City, we found a female ghost left in the world, and we want to ask you to take action to overtake it." ”

The old man glanced up at me, and then looked at Brother Cheng beside me: "This is why you came to me?"

"Master, please. Brother Cheng's attitude was even more respectful.

"Hmph!" the old man snorted coldly, ignoring Brother Cheng's request.

Seeing the two of them continue to stalemate like this, I can't help but feel a little anxious. The energy shield can only last for three hours, and once the time passes, the female ghost can easily escape, and now time is the most precious.

"Dao Chief, can you come with us?" I asked, hurrying up.

"It stands to reason that I should go, but ......" Speaking of this, the old man glanced at Brother Cheng, "This traitor's business has nothing to do with me, he is no longer my apprentice now, and I have no obligation to help him." ”

With that, the old man quickly turned around and raised his feet to prepare to leave the wooden house. Brother Cheng walked quickly to the old man's side and anxiously grabbed the old man's robe.

"In my heart, you have always been my master. Brother Cheng's gaze at the old man was sincere and eager.

"Since that's the case, then why did you betray your master and worship another master?"

"Master, in fact, there are reasons for this, and I will explain it to you slowly when the time comes, and I believe that after you listen to my words, you will definitely not blame me again. Now, please help me get past that female ghost first......"

"I'm waiting!" the old man brushed away.

Seeing the old man leaving, I was immediately anxious, and was about to catch up, but I was pulled by Brother Cheng, I turned my head to look at him suspiciously, and saw him show me a reassuring smile.

"Don't worry, master, he agreed. ”

Boss Cheng's words reassured me a little, and I nodded lightly, looking at him, waiting for his instructions. Although the middle-aged uncle who suddenly appeared next to me was not good-looking, he was not weaker than me in the slightest when it came to exorcism and demon avoidance.

"Let's go, let's go back to the villa. With that, Boss Cheng raised his legs and walked out.

I followed Boss Cheng and left the humble cabin. Outside, I turned my head and looked around, trying to find the old man, but the old man seemed to have suddenly evaporated, and no trace could be found.

"Xiaofeng, are you looking for my master?" Cheng Qian looked at me with a smile.

"yes," I said with a wry smile, stopping to look inquiring, "I'm a little worried, it's not close to that villa, and your master hasn't fully understood the location from us. ”

Cheng Qian was not worried at all: "You underestimate my master too much, perhaps, from the moment we entered the door, he had already sensed something, although I couldn't say it completely, but I trusted my intuition." ”

When he said this, Cheng Qian showed a look of admiration on his face, and he could see how highly respected the old man was in his heart. This is the first time I've seen this expression on his face.

I nodded my head suspiciously, and my worries lessened considerably, and at the same time, I became more and more curious about their relationship, for the old man had not been kind to him when we first came to visit.

Cheng Qian is a clerk in my shop, not an outsider, and I don't have much concern, so I asked the doubts in my heart: "Brother Cheng, do you have a conflict with your master? Looking at his attitude just now, he seems to be very angry with you, and said that you betrayed him, what is going on?"

Cheng Qian didn't answer me immediately, but walked forward silently side by side with me, maybe he was thinking about how to answer my question, and the two of us shuttled slowly and silently through a piece of grass and trees.

After a long time, when I thought he would not answer me, he suddenly spoke, and there was a rare sadness in his voice. "Xiao Feng, I can't say it clearly for a while now, and when this matter is resolved, I'll be talking to you. ”

This seems to be a heavy secret for him, and I am not a strong man, so I nodded and said yes. Cheng Qian didn't bother with me about this matter, he took out his mobile phone and called a taxi.

After a few minutes, a blue taxi came into view, and we got into the car and headed back.

Sitting in the car, I took out my mobile phone from time to time to check the time, more than two hours have passed, the distance between the two roads is not short, and when we get there, the time will definitely exceed three hours, but the worst thing is that the aging of that layer of energy cover will weaken over time.

If the female ghost is allowed to escape, the consequences will ......

Thinking of this, I feel a little apprehensive in my heart, as a ghost doctor, I definitely can't let the female ghost escape my control and harm the innocent citizens.

"Master, please drive faster. "I was a little uneasy urging.

Where can the driver understand my feelings, the potholed road conditions here have made him unhappy, and in the face of my urging, he just said a few perfunctory sentences lukewarmly.

The car was driving at a constant speed, maybe it was the master who went out of the mountain, Cheng Qi and I were in a completely different state, with our eyes slightly closed all the way, recuperating.

As the sun began to set in the west, I looked out the window into the distant sky, the clouds seemed to be stained with blood, indescribably bewitching, and as the distance shortened, the light gradually faded, and by the time the two of us arrived at the villa, the sky had completely darkened.

The two of us paid and got out of the car, and soon came to the gate of the villa again, through the window, the house was pitch black, and it seemed that the owner of the house and Master Cheng Qian were not there. This delicate villa stood quietly in the darkness, exuding a vague yin aura, and it was obvious that the yin qi oozing out now was not at all as strong as when we had just left.
