Chapter 20: Spirits
Since he couldn't buy the kidney bean cake made by that Yun Niang, Lin Ye could only find a way to try his luck in an ordinary small shop in the end.
Fortunately, after shopping all over Huipu City, Lin Ye finally found a shop that made kidney bean cakes. Of course, this time, Lin Ye did not put things into the ring as openly as he had in the Nian Porcelain Workshop before, but asked people to send things to the inn he had booked in advance.
In the evening, Lin Ye returned to the inn with the last things on the two sacks list, and the shopkeeper seemed to be surprised by this, so he called a few other juniors and struggled to carry the sack to Lin Ye's house.
"Little two, the old rules, three meat and one vegetable, and another beef soup." Lin also handed the things on his body to Xiao Er, and greeted at the same time.
"Okay." When Xiao Er behind the counter heard it, he turned his head and walked towards the kitchen.
Lin Ye took down a jar of wine from the shelf, and pasted the words "bamboo leaf green" on the seal with a red slip of paper.
Although for a monk of Lin Ye's level, ordinary wine in the mortal world is like drinking white water, and there is not even a trace of feeling, but even so, a young man in a white shirt sits alone in a noisy restaurant and drinks a jar of bamboo leaves, but he also has a different feeling.
To put it simply, it is to pretend to be forced.
After a while, Xiao Er came over with plates and chopsticks, but with Xiao Er came over, there was also an old man in a vermilion coat.
The old man sat down on crutches and sat down opposite Lin Ye, and after Xiao Er finished putting the dishes and chopsticks, he waved his hand to signal Xiao Er to leave.
Lin also seemed to have known about the arrival of the old man, and picked up the chopsticks in front of him and ate them by himself.
This person is the old father-in-law of the previous county commander An Yuanlong-Du Gaohou, the shopkeeper of Linglong Pavilion.
Lin Ye buried his head and ate the food in the bowl, and when he saw Du Gaohou looking at him with a smile on his face, he pointed to the bowl and chopsticks in front of Du Gaohou with chopsticks, and said, "Since you are here, let's eat together!" β
Hearing this, Du Gaohou smiled even more, picked up the chopsticks, and picked up a piece of beef on the plate, "Since the immortal has spoken, then the old man is better than obeying his fate." β
Lin also ignored Du Gaohou, in fact, when he met Du Gaohou for the first time, Lin also knew that this old guy would definitely try to find a way to meet him. This is also the reason why Lin Ye finally chose to settle in the inn near Linglong Pavilion, which is close and trouble-free.
The two of them, old and young, sat opposite each other, without talking to each other, and ate the table full of dishes together. Of course, most of it was eaten by Lin Ye.
After Xiao Er cleaned up the leftovers on the table, Du Gaohou still had a kind smile.
At this time, it was close to night, and the shopkeeper and the back kitchen quietly left the inn together, and after a while, even the innkeeper smiled at the two and turned to leave.
The two sat quietly like this, silent to each other, knowing that the last hangover guest was picked up by the family, Du Gao Hou said: "Shangxian, you really let me find it!" β
Lin Ye picked up the teacup on the table, took a sip, and said disapprerovingly: "If Boss Du can't even find my residence, it will be in vain for me to choose such a good place." β
"Hahahaha!" When Du Gaohou heard this, he laughed loudly with the dragon head in his hand, and said with admiration: "It is worthy of being an immortal, and he can even count this step." β
In the face of Du Gaohou's praise, Lin also smiled indifferently, as if he was a master outside the world, "Since Boss Du is looking for me Lin, can the poor road be rude?" β
"The immortals are really not extraordinary." Du Gao Hou arched his hand.
"Boss Du doesn't have to be like this, if there is anything that needs Poor Dao's help, if he can help, Poor Dao will definitely do his best."
"Shangxian is happy, hahaha!" Du Gaohou slapped the table and said with a smile: "Since Shangxian knows that Du has asked for Shangxian, it is better for Shangxian to guess, why is Du looking for Shangxian?" β
Lin Ye put down the teacup in his hand, looked Du Gaohou up and down a few times, and replied: "Mortals are trapped in their lives, nothing more than birth, old age, sickness and death. β
"Since Mr. Du, you are fine, then I am afraid that only your family can make this person who is calling for wind and rain in Huipu be able to ask for it with a shy face in person."
"I heard that you have no children in your life, only two daughters under your knees, and the eldest daughter is already married to the county order, so don't worry, then ......"
Lin Ye looked at Du Gaohou with a surprised face indifferently, and said with a smile: "Is it because of the little girl in the family?" β
"Ask the fairy to save the little girl!" Du Gaohou got up abruptly and fell to his knees. Who would have thought that in Huipu, it can be said that the Du shopkeeper who covers the sky with his hands, would have a time to kneel and beg for help.
Lin Ye stepped forward and hurriedly held up Du Gaohou, "Mr. Du, you don't have to be like this, please get up quickly." What's the difficulty, sit down and say. β
Du Gaohou picked up the dragon head cane on the side, supported himself to sit on the chair, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and said: "The old man has helped countless people in his life, just to be able to have a safe family, and now the eldest daughter has married into a good family, which should be a good thing, but who would have thought that the little girl would suddenly suffer such a disaster!" β
"Don't worry, old man, you can explain in detail what it is, and then see if there is a way to help you."
"The old man is the little girl, thank you!" When Du Gaohou heard this, he was excited to kneel again, but was stopped by Lin Ye again.
Du Gaohou sat on the chair and sighed, and began to talk about what happened to his little daughter.
ββA dividing lineββ
Du Gaohou's youngest daughter is named Du Jin, who is sixteen years old this year, and she can be regarded as an old man. On weekdays, he has a lively personality and is very popular, and there is an endless stream of people who come to ask for relatives. But Du Gaohou felt that his daughter was still young, so he stayed by his side.
Just a few days ago, Du Jin followed a few good sisters in the city to play in the garden, when the osmanthus flowers were in full bloom, and the girls wrote poems and enjoyed the flowers in the garden together, which was also a pastime on weekdays.
Strange things began to appear after Du Jin returned home.
According to the people in the house, in recent days, Du Jin's personality has suddenly changed dramatically, and he has become very quiet, and he doesn't even eat his favorite dim sum on weekdays, but only likes to eat some meat food, not even staple food.
Moreover, what is even more strange is that the maids who are responsible for serving Du Jin, after Du Jin leaves the room, always have a feeling of being stared at, sometimes passing by Du Jin's door, they will even hear the cry of the young lady, but when everyone enters, it is empty.
Later, Du Gaohou also wondered if his daughter was entangled in some evil, and he also found a famous Taoist priest in the city to cast a spell, but after these Taoist priests finished doing the dharma, his daughter's state did not change at all.
Seeing Lin Ye's skills before, Du Gaohou wanted to pin his hopes on Lin Ye, so he found him.
After listening to Du Gaohou's introduction, Lin Ye frowned, thought for a while and said: "According to the poor road, Miss's symptoms seem to have been robbed of her body by spirits. β
"Spirits?" Du Gaohou asked a little confused.
"That's right, and it's probably something in the garden." Lin also explained.
Generally speaking, there are four types of evil, which are demons, demons, ghosts, and monsters.
Demons, it is not difficult to understand, it is the spiritual things such as grass, trees, insects, and beasts that have been transformed after cultivating enough Taoism. These demons and demons are related to people.
If someone dies and is angry, then the corpse may become a corpse demon, which is the so-called zombie, and the entire Tianwu Continent, the Shangqing faction of the eighth cave is the best at dealing with these immortal evil things.
As for ghosts, as long as a person dies and the soul is out of the body, it is called a ghost.
The last monster is similar to the demon, except that this kind of evil is incarnated by some inanimate things, and it is generally reborn by taking possession of the body of a mortal.
"I don't know if there's a way to crack it?!"
Lin also smiled and said, "This spirit is an inanimate thing contaminated with aura, and the best way to deal with it is to use the thunder method." To tell the truth, in the entire Tianwu Continent, except for the Zhengyi Sect, which is famous for its Lei Fa, only Lei Fa, who is famous for its Lei Fa, dares to be called second. β
When Du Gaohou heard this, he was overjoyed and said: "God bless Jin'er!" God forbid! Hahaha! β
"Shangxian, without further ado, we'll go ...... now"
Du Gaohou got up and was about to take Lin Ye to Du Mansion, but was stopped by Lin Ye.
Du Gaohou turned his head, seemed to suddenly realize, and said respectfully: "Shangxian rest assured, as long as Shangxian can save the little girl, the old man will be rewarded with a lot of money, even if he wants all my Du Gaohou's family property, the old man is willing." β
Hearing Du Gaohou's words, Lin also said with a little cry and laughter: "Mr. Du, what are you talking about, I am not one of those charlatans, how can I accept your money?" The reason why I am reluctant to go at this time is because when I am close to Zi at this time, it is the time of the day when the aura is the strongest, and the spirit is already transformed by the aura, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to deal with it when I go at this time. Tomorrow afternoon, when the aura is the thinnest, I will go to your mansion to remove the evil spirits for the young lady.
When Du Gaohou heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, as far as it seems that this Taoist chief is not a cheater of money, and he can still wait for one night.
