Chapter 169: A Ghost Comes to Visit in the Middle of the Night

By the time I left this place, it was nearly three watches.

Wu Nuxia led the horse, played the lantern, was very vigilant, often looked left and right, for fear that there would be hidden arrows in the grass at night, or there would be villains behind her.

But until I walked back to the village, nothing happened.

"It's all right!"

The woman seemed a little surprised.

"Heroine vigilance."

"It's not that I'm vigilant, it's that something is wrong today."

"What's wrong?"

"When I walked in the ghost market today, I found several obscure eyes, aiming at me, my divine horse, you, behind you, and Sanhua Niangniang, hiding deep but not hiding from me. Most of the surviving Jianghu people in Beiqin Mountain passed the news and talked about our characteristics. Wu Nuxia said and paused, "I thought they were coming to us, but now that I think about it, most of those people in the rivers and lakes have also reported the tragic situation and death, and these people don't dare to act rashly." ”

When the Taoist heard this, what he thought in his heart was: "Then won't there be trouble for the heroine to go out of the city in the future?" ”

"Don't think about it."

Wu Nuxia walked to the door of the shop, waved her hand, and explained casually: "I rarely ride horses when I go out of the city, they don't recognize me, and I don't care about these little miscellaneous hairs at all." ”

She paused as she spoke:

"What's more, I don't go out of the city every day, most of the time I don't go out of the city alone, no one dares to come to me for trouble, you still have to worry about yourself, don't be cold, don't be stolen."

"That's good."

Only then did the Taoist put his mind at ease.

The group had already walked to the door of the shop.

The thatched shop is simple, with a wooden fence outside and a yard inside.

"There's an adult."

The little girl approached the fence and looked inside through the crack.

The Taoist and the woman looked over, but they could only see that it was dark inside, and when they raised the lantern, they could only illuminate a small area in front of them.

Footsteps could be heard quickly.

It's audible.

A dark shadow stepped out quickly, into the faint glow of the lantern, and came to open the door for them.

She was a rural woman.

"I'm back......"

"Good work."

"Not hard ......"

The group walked into the courtyard.

The woman hurriedly led the horse and tied it.

Song You lived in the thatched hut on the left, and Wu Nuxia was next to him, and there were only a few such thatched huts in the yard, but at this time, other horses had stopped here, and they should be other residents, who came back earlier than them.

This woman was the mother of the siblings whom she had met during the day, and she had met at dinner this evening, and had heard that the men in the family were soldiers in the north, leaving them to live at home with the old man.

There are many people in the ghost market, and there are countless people who steal chickens and dogs, but whenever a guest brings a horse, as long as he stays in the store, the owner has to guard it all night.

It's hard money.

Song You didn't say anything, went back to the house to wash up a little, put away the paintings and bags, sat cross-legged on the bed, and continued to feel the spirit of the season while the summer solstice had not yet ended.

The cat took on its original form and nested beside him.

Summer solstice spiritual power, to yang to rigidity, although Sanhua Niangniang is a monster, but the practice of yin and yang can also benefit from it.

……

Halfway through the long night, a ghost visited.

This ghost was a slender scholar, his face was as white as paper, half floating and half walking, aiming at these thatched shops in the west of the village, and went straight over to investigate them one by one.

The first is a few scattered thatched huts, and the scholars and ghosts look at each other from left to right, and there are all kinds of people living there, but none of them have their own goals. The second was a courtyard, the walls of which were made of small pieces of gravel, and he touched his toes a little on the ground, and then floated over the walls and into the courtyard, still checking them one by one.

There are a lot of merchants living in this house, and looking at the appearance of their bags, they should have brought a lot of money.

Although the money is heavy to the ghost, it can be practiced by him, but it is not impossible to take it. Although these merchants have their bags under their heads and hold them in their arms, with his ability, it is not impossible to take them out.

It's just that today there are more important goals.

The third thatched shop is still a rural thatched hut, and there is also a courtyard, but it is a bamboo fence, and the courtyard gate is also a wooden fence. The scholar didn't even need to jump, he just walked over and squeezed, and his body squeezed through the gap in the fence, and then walked into the courtyard.

Still looking at them one by one.

While watching, he habitually whispered.

The first room is occupied by a few people from the rivers and lakes, and the three of them sleep together, the yang energy is very heavy, the blood is vigorous, and ordinary little ghosts are afraid that they can't get close at all.

"Oh, three people in one ......"

The scholar muttered and walked to the second house.

"Oh, the yang energy is so weak, oh, at such an old age, I'm afraid that if you're lucky in two years, you can come to me......"

Grinning as he walked to the third room.

The scholar ghost leaned close to the wall, peering through the window and with one eye.

"Huh!"

This time there was a bit of a surprise.

There was a woman lying in the room, but her blood was stronger than the three strong martial artists in the first room combined, and she was afraid that she was the best martial artist in the rivers and lakes. The ghost is not too afraid of the martial artists of the rivers and lakes, and he is even less afraid of those who have the way to do it, but this person is too strong, and today is the summer solstice, and the scholar ghost does not dare to provoke her, so he quickly retracted his gaze and walked away with his mouth closed.

It's not that I'm afraid that I can't beat her, it's mainly that the martial artist is keen, and after watching it for a long time, I'm afraid of waking her up and affecting myself to steal the treasure.

Walk up to the fourth room and lean in to the window.

There was a Taoist inside, sitting cross-legged, I don't know if I was asleep, and a cat next to me was nesting, with its ears up, and I didn't know if I was asleep.

All in all, the room was quiet.

Turning his gaze again, there was a bag and a long oilcloth-wrapped box on the bed.

This is the box!

“……”

The scholar ghost gasped.

In fact, he doesn't know what is in this box, but he was a thief during his lifetime, and he died because of stealing, I don't know if it was because of the obsession with stealing and turning into a ghost, in short, after turning into a ghost, he also loved stealing very much, and gradually evolved a lot of skills.

It's like a treasure in the world, and he knows its value at a glance. It is as if he walks at night, and even the most sensitive dog can hardly detect his arrival, and sometimes even walks in front of the temple statue.

Wandering in the ghost market tonight, looking for a target, I saw this Taoist with a long box on his back, and I felt that the Taoist rhyme in the box was endless, and it was extremely mysterious, and I was very surprised.

Later, when I inquired, I learned some news from the people of the rivers and lakes, and I was scared and excited at the same time.

Finally, the excitement overcame the fear, so I followed.

Following from afar, watching them live here, and have been patient, and when this time comes, the person is sleeping the deepest, even if this person is a cultivator, he is a little sure.

The remaining few points are exciting.

It's exciting! It's exciting!

It's been a long time since I've seen this excitement......

The scholar ghost glanced at the door with one eye open for a while, feeling a little strange, and couldn't say why, but seeing that the Taoist and the cat were not moving, time gradually passed, and the dawn was getting closer and closer, he didn't dare to delay, gritted his teeth, and made up his mind.

“……”

Silently, the whole ghost turned into a wisp of green smoke and went straight through the window.

"Brush!"

The curled up cats raised their heads in an instant, staring at the wisps of green smoke.

The green smoke fell to the ground and turned into a human form.

The scholar ghost came in and realized that something was wrong-

In this room, the yang energy is so strong!

It's even a little richer than noon today, but it hasn't leaked out at all.

The whole room was filled with the spiritual power of the most yang and the strongest, which was undoubtedly purgatory for the Yin Soul and the wild ghost, and entering it was like a normal person walking into a furnace.

“!!”

The scholar's face suddenly distorted, and his whole body curled up, wanting to cry out in pain, but he didn't dare to make a sound.

Glancing forward, he was meeting the three-flowered cat.

The cat's eyes at night reflect the light, which is really terrifying.

"Not good!"

The scholar ghost said secretly, turned around and wanted to run.

But I found that I couldn't move.

After another glance, the Taoist also opened his eyes.

Those eyes were calm.

"Hoo ......"

The oil lamp in the room lit up and filled the room.

In this room full of yang energy, the scholar ghost seems to feel the feeling of being scorched by the scorching sun when he first became a ghost, ignorant and ignorant, and even more painful.

But he couldn't move, so he had to look at the Taoist in front of him hard, and almost gritted his teeth and said:

"The Immortal Master Spends His Life......"

The Taoist didn't speak, but the three-flowered cat next to him stood up, shook his head, stared at him curiously, and said, "What are you doing in the house where we live?" Is it trying to steal our money? ”

"No offense ......"

"No offense~"

The scholar ghost was really tormented, but the three-flowered cat still learned to speak in his tone, and it was painful and angry for a while.

The Taoist lowered his head and touched the cat's tail, then looked up at him, and finally spoke:

"I don't know what happened here?"

"Under just passing by......"

“……”

After hearing this, the Taoist pursed his lips, turned his head to the cat next to him and said, "Sanhua Niangniang, he lied to us." ”

“!”

Sanhua Cat's expression suddenly froze, raised his head and glanced at the Taoist, after confirmation, when he turned his head again, he already had a bit of a fierce look, and he breathed at the little ghost:

"Hoo ......"

Exhale into fire.

"Ahh

Although it was just a fire, the little ghost also screamed in pain.

"Sanhua Niangniang has achieved success in cultivation, and the flames she spits out have a bit of spirituality." The Taoist praised it, then looked at the scholar ghost and asked again, "Can you talk about it now?" Why did it come about? ”

"The Immortal Master Spends His Life......"

Only then did the scholar ghost endure the pain and said: "I often wander in the ghost market, and tonight I saw that the fairy master had a bag on his back and was quite mysterious, so I wanted to steal ......."

After speaking, he immediately added: "Please remember that the immortal master is the first offense in the next place, and he will be in the next life!" ”

“!”

Sanhua Cat's eyes suddenly froze.

Sure enough, they came to steal something.

What's the difference between that and a mouse?

It's just that......

Sanhua Cat was a little angry just now, and suddenly a little more confused, staring at the scholar ghost, tilting his head: "Why did you talk when you stole something?" ”

“……”

It turned out that she was talking and was discovered.

The scholar's face was extremely wonderful for a while, and he regretted it, was ashamed, and a little embarrassed, and finally had to grit his teeth and reply: "This is the habit before the next life, and after becoming a ghost after death, I can't change this habit of talking to myself when stealing......"

"Oh......"

"It's magical."

"Please spare your life from the immortal master and the cat fairy!"

“!”

A cat fairy screamed very comfortably.

But she was in a happy mood, and she didn't speak, but only turned her head to look at the Taoist.
