Chapter 7: Carp Essence
When the water ghosts dispersed, Li Yuan left the river and walked on the mountain road back to the Taoist temple, recalling what the water ghosts had just said in his mind.
They are asking for help from themselves, or warning themselves, trying to convey some message through themselves.
There must be something wrong with this Sanhuajiang, but I don't know if it's evil or someone is secretly doing it.
While thinking, Li Yuan quickened his pace and quickly returned to the Taoist temple.
When he returned to the Taoist temple, it was already a child, and Li Yuan, who had something in his heart, went straight back to the single room where Lin Yingying was resting.
Using a spell to clean the pink flesh and limbs that had turned gray, Li Yuan jumped onto Lin Yingying's bed through the open window.
Lin Yingying is young, she doesn't sleep honestly, at this moment her whole body is lying on the bed, her head is lying on her side, her mouth is slightly open, and there is a little saliva dripping, like a cute little insect with meat, and the dark blue quilt was also kicked to the side of the bed by her, and she drooped to the ground.
Li Yuan carefully crossed Lin Yingying, walked to the side of the bed, lowered his head and bit the quilt, and pulled it up little by little.
Holding the quilt in his mouth, he covered Lin Yingying's body again, stretched out his paws against her soft little arms, and gently used force to help her adjust her sleeping position to lie on her side to prevent her from falling into a pillow after sleeping for a long time.
After doing all this, feeling like an old father, Li Yuan sighed, walked to the pillow, lay down and curled up, resting his head on the pillow, and was ready to rest.
Waiting until early the next morning, the rooster crowed, and Li Yuan rarely didn't lie in bed and got up early.
Stretched out his paws, patted Lin Yingying's baby fat little face, and in her complaint, the little confused ghost screamed.
Perhaps because of this reason, Lin Yingying's expression when she looked at Li Yuan in the morning was puffed up, but it was even more cute.
Although he had something in his heart, Li Yuan still accompanied Lin Yingying to finish the morning exercise and morning class as usual.
When the task in the morning was completed, Li Yuan did not accompany Lin Yingying to play, but took advantage of the two of them not paying attention and slipped into the hut dedicated to the patriarch.
On the left side of the hut was a wooden table, and in the drawers of the wooden table were some charms that the old Taoist priest usually prepared.
Jumping on the wooden table, Li Yuan looked at the door of the hut again, and after making sure that no one was approaching, he stretched out his paw and opened the drawer.
There were a lot of charms in the drawer, and Li Yuan didn't know much, but he could rely on his natural powers to identify them.
"Charms, charms, which of you are the ones who exorcise evil spirits and demons!"
"Me!" "Me!" "And me!" ...
Immediately, there were a few charms to tell Li Yuan that they were exorcism.
Taking out three exorcism talismans, Li Yuan closed the drawer, folded the talisman on the table again, grabbed the talisman with his claws, and Li Yuan jumped off the wooden table.
Li Yuan was going to make a bold move today, sneaking out of the Taoist temple with a charm, going down the mountain to the town, and taking advantage of the daylight to explore the cause of the water ghosts in the river.
In fact, the safest way to solve this matter should be to tell the old Taoist priest and let him go down the mountain to solve it, but Li Yuan didn't want to expose himself to open his spiritual wisdom and have a matter of cultivation, so he was ready to rely on his supernatural powers first to search for some clues.
If you can find some evidence, Li Yuan can bring it back to the Taoist temple and warn the old Taoist priest!
Walking out of the house carefully, Li Yuan confirmed that Lin Yingying and the old Taoist priest were in the backyard, so he quickly ran out of the Taoist temple.
The morning in the town is very lively, with stalls, shopping, and work, and people have their own things to do, all of them are running for life.
There are only some children, whose families have no money to go to private schools, and at this time they play together on the street, enjoying the rare happy times in their lives.
With the help of the wind control technique, let the charm stick to his abdomen, Li Yuan walked on the most prosperous and lively riverside street in the town.
The streets of Binjiang Street are all paved with bluestone slabs, which are quite clean and tidy.
Maintaining his innate supernatural powers to a limited extent, Li Yuan listened to the voices around him.
The voices around him were chaotic, and Li Yuan had to meditate and sift through useful information.
Walking to the middle of the street, Li Yuan came to a bluestone on the side of the road, squatted on it, basking in the warm sun while searching for useful sounds.
After listening like this for more than ten minutes, Li Yuan opened his eyes with a hint of tiredness in his eyes.
After receiving the supernatural powers, Li Yuan jumped off the bluestone and ran to the right, which was the direction leading to the dock.
Shuttling through the crowd, walking through the doors of the six shops, Li Yuan, who was walking very fast, stopped in front of the seventh shop.
The shop is a fishing shop, it is called Pan's fishing shop, the owner is a young couple, the man fishes and collects fish in the morning, and the wife watches the shop to sell fish, and the business is not bad.
The couple has a daughter, who is not very old, just 4 years old, very obedient, and when her parents are busy, she will obediently sit on the steps in front of the store.
The girl only has a nickname, called Yaya, Yaya likes to laugh very much, and she sits on the steps every day, watching the adults come and go, always smiling.
Li Yuan thinks that the business of this shop is good, and a big reason is that the girl who loves to laugh is really popular.
Just finished being busy, the man who was cleaning up saw Li Yuan standing at the door of the store.
The male owner is kind, and once gave Li Yuan a lot of small fish, and the relationship between one person and one cat is good.
"Blackie, you're here!" The male owner also recognized Li Yuan, with a warm smile on his face, "Wait!" ”
After speaking, the man walked to the pool where the live fish were kept, and in the corner of the pool hung a small basket made of bamboo, and took the small basket from the pool.
Li Yuan came over this time, not to beg for food, but to hear a special voice from here.
While the man was getting him a small fish, Li Yuan stepped forward and walked to a large wooden basin half a person wide.
There is a carp in the wooden basin, the carp has a red body, crystal scales, and is in excellent condition, which is quite rare.
The head poked out and came to the top of the water basin, where Li Yuan and the red carp looked at each other.
"Grunt... (Ahh There's a cat going to eat fish, I'm going to die, woo.... )”
The girl's delicate voice sounded, making Li Yuan's face a little strange.
"Little Black, that fish can't be eaten!"
Just as Li Yuan was about to take further action, the man of the fishing shop walked out with a small wooden bowl containing several small fish.
Looking apologetically at the owner of the fishing shop, Li Yuan swooped forward like lightning, grabbed the red carp with his mouth, turned his head and ran.
"Puff puff! Puff puff... (Help!) Woo woo... A little crying, the girl's voice full of fear sounded again.
"Blackie, stop me! You thief cat...."
At the same time, the male owner of the fishing shop also chased after Li Yuan with a wooden bowl.
Enhancing the Wind Resisting Technique, Li Yuan ran to the river as fast as if he had flown up, and soon disappeared without a trace.
Got rid of the kind-hearted shopkeeper and came to the river, Li Yuan released the red carp back into the river.
"Purr Purr (Thank you Cat!) Hee-hee! Swimming happily in the water, the red carp did not leave, but floated on the surface of the water, thanking Li Yuan.
