Chapter 40 Chaoxian Taoist Temple

"Old man, but it doesn't hurt to say. Liang Shiming said with an open mind.

"These people are all victimized by water ghosts. The old man said angrily, "Just now you asked why no one took the burial? You must know that all those who have a living mouth in the family have already carried the corpse away, and now those who remain on the shore are all the family members who died tragically in the river! Originally, the official family also came to put the ownerless body into Yizhuang, but later it was rumored that Yizhuang was also haunted, saying that the body was salvaged and had committed a water ghost, and it was going to be haunted, and if it was carried to Yizhuang, it would be even more angry. Now no one dares to send it to Yizhuang, even the value of Yizhuang has escaped early. Alas, I don't know how long it will take for this grievance to settle down!"

Hearing the old man in front of him say this, Liang Shiming couldn't help but be secretly afraid, and he didn't know when he saw Lu Yezi also put his ear to him.

"What kind of water ghost is so powerful!?" Lu Yezi suddenly screamed, startling the old man.

Seeing the old man staring at him with displeasure on his face, Lu Yezi said again: "What are you looking at? Master Dao, I'm here to hunt ghosts and monsters!"

Seeing that Lu Yezi was dressed in a tattered cloth robe, the old man asked puzzledly, "Are you a Taoist priest?"

"Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable!" Lu Yezi saluted with one hand and said, "What, it's not like that?"

The old man put down his flat burden, looked at Lu Yezi with a melancholy face, and sighed for a moment: "It doesn't matter if it's like, it's better to advise you to leave it alone." ”

"What?"

The old man smiled bitterly and said, "I think you came for the fifty taels of silver, right? No one asked about you before? Many mages invited to the place were useless, crazy and dead, and one of them died tragically in the river, and in the end he didn't even float up his body." That's why I advise you to leave it alone, it's not worth risking your life for fifty taels of silver!"

Lu Yezi pursed his lips slightly after hearing this, showing that he didn't care, but he was secretly scolding the innkeeper in his heart for not being well-intentioned, and then pulled Liang Shiming and hurriedly walked towards the city.

"Dao Chief, how is it now?" Liang Shiming asked as he looked at Lu Yezi with a sad face.

"Now ......," Lu Yezi pondered, "This water ghost, I am not afraid of Dao Ye, but it will take a lot of time to think of catching it, so after thinking about it, it is better to change the reason." Lu Yezi said that he should take the first step and walk away, and at the same time dropped a sentence, "Don't worry, you and I are friends of life and death, Dao Ye, I will definitely help you ask for the law and save your father!"

It was expected that Lu Yezi deliberately excused himself because he was not sure, but Liang Shiming was a little happy at this time.

Although the waterside of the fishing village was confused to see him get rid of the water ghost, but when he encountered the ghost hitting the wall last night, he couldn't even drive the magic weapon he carried.

After losing Buhong and witnessing a lot of tragedy, Liang Shiming now feels that life is more important than anything else, and the solution is still figured out by people.

Looking at Lu Yezi, who was shaking his head and walking in front, his body was calm and uninhibited at the moment, as if he had not experienced all kinds of tragic circumstances, Liang Shiming felt that the Maoshan Daoist who was greedy for life and afraid of death at this time, and sometimes righteous and awe-inspiring, was no longer so unpredictable at this time, as he said, the two were friends of life and death!

Raising his head, the sun was dazzling, but he didn't feel annoying, but felt warm and overflowing, Liang Shiming let out a sigh of relief, and quickly followed, leaving everything behind him that was caged under the haze.

"Liang Gongzi, there you have it!" At this time, Lu Yezi turned his head with a happy face and said, "Dao Ye, I have thought about it again and again, doing other things always hinders my identity, after all, Dao Ye and I are also Maoshan Dao Sect." Just now I suddenly remembered that the old man outside the city said that the value of the Yizhuang had run away, and no one dared to accept it, why don't we try it?"

"Yizhuang is worth more?" Liang Shiming asked rhetorically, although he didn't want to deny Lu Yezi's idea, he also knew that he couldn't make much money.

As if he understood what Liang Shiming meant, Lu Yezi took out a few big coins and flipped them in his hand, and said: "With these alone, you and I can't last a long time, if we don't find a reason today, will we have to come to the door to beg in a few days? You must know that I was going to get rid of the water ghost and earn fifty taels of silver, but I was afraid of hurting you, so I had to find another way." The value of Yizhuang is a good reason, where it is far away from the water, the water ghost will not be able to get up the wind and waves, and it is always a lot safer. ”

Seeing that Liang Shiming seemed to understand his "hard work", Lu Yezi smiled slightly and comforted: "You don't have to worry about how much you are paid, Master Dao, I will take advantage of the value to find the person in charge of the local government, just by virtue of my identity as a famous family in Maoshan Mountain, I will not dare to slack off, I will definitely entertain Zhou Xiang, and a meal is always indispensable." At that time, Dao Ye and I will look for an opportunity, or to hexagram, or to ask for some spiritual talismans to drive away evil spirits, presumably those ordinary people must be very happy, and finally ask them for some more money before leaving, enough for us to use on the road. ”

Seeing that Lu Yezi couldn't hide his complacent look, and finished talking about his plan in one breath, Liang Shiming couldn't help but be stunned, and felt that if he hadn't seen the supreme divine law of Maoshan Dao Sect with his own eyes, he would definitely regard him as a charlatan who was deceived and drunk at this moment. But after thinking about it, he had no other way but to nod.

After many inquiries, the two came to the township hall of Baishui Town and met with the land protection.

Because Lu Yezi did not have a certificate on him, he told him for a long time before the other party believed that he was a Maoshan Taoist priest, but he did not show the slightest intention of worship, but it was Lu Yezi who jumped up and down, spitting and posing the righteousness of the Dao, and the other party reluctantly offered a daily reward of 100 Wen.

After thinking about it again and again, Lu Yezi finally made a document to undertake the errand, and after asking where the Yizhuang fifteen miles east of Ming Town was, he and Liang Shiming left the township hall.

At the moment when he walked out of the village hall, Liang Shiming was stunned, and he suddenly realized a serious problem: Yizhuang is worth more, and he wants to live with the dead!

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a panic in his heart, and said hesitantly: "Daoist Lu, I ......"

As if he understood Liang Shiming's panicked face, Lu Yezi immediately asked, "What's the matter? You don't want to go with me? Besides, where can you sleep tonight?"

Although Liang Shiming also knew that he had nowhere to go, even if he slept on the streets, it was better to go to Yizhuang to live with the dead.

Seeing Liang Shiming's worries, Lu Yezi comforted: "Don't worry, Yizhuang has a value changing room, you sleep in the changing room, and I will deal with the rest!" Lu Yezi was talking, as if he suddenly remembered something, and couldn't help but say loudly, "It's not good!"

"What's the matter?" asked Liang Shiming nervously.

Lu Yezi pointed to the shabby robe on his body, and frowned: "How can this outfit be made now? And Dao Ye I don't even have a paper talisman on my body, if it is really as the old man said, if I encounter something unclean, how should I deal with it?"

"Why don't you go buy some. Liang Shiming said tightly.

"No, no, no, where do you know so much. Lu Yezi waved his hand again and again, and after thinking for a while, he turned to say happily, "Yes! All the Taoist doors in the world are of the same origin! And inquire about the location of the Taoist temple here, the Taoist master I personally worship the door, and go to borrow some magic clothes and magic weapons." ”

Hearing Lu Yezi say this, Liang Shiming couldn't help but secretly admire his bright mind, so not only can he borrow what he needs, but he may also be able to eat vegetarian food in the view.

The discussion was decided, and the two of them asked around about the location of the Taoist temple here.

The two of them originally found a Sanqingmen person casually and asked for some paper horse incense to practice the French style, but they didn't think about it, but they asked an unborn master here.

This person's common surname is Jia Mingneng, known as Baishui Half-Immortal, cultivating the law in the Zhennan Dynasty Immortal Temple, getting this news, not only Lu Yezi, but also Liang Shiming was overjoyed, hoping that this Taoist immortal can not only guide the two of them, but also look at the love with Lu Yezi, and help the two to go to Xiangji Temple.

The two traced to the Chaoxian Temple in the south of the town, and found that this Taoist temple is not as grand as the name, there are only three courtyards before and after, each entry is only three rooms side by side, a main hall in the middle, and there is an ear room on the left and right.

The door of this Taoist temple is not big, the three words "Chaoxian Temple" on the door plaque have faded, even the plaque is a little crooked, the green mud on the eaves is withered, the weeds are overgrown, and it looks dilapidated.

"Do all the masters practice in such places?" Liang Shiming asked suspiciously.

Lu Yezi didn't answer, stepped forward and knocked on the door, shouting non-stop.

After a while, the door opened, and out of a teenage boy came out, with a pair of big watery eyes, and turned around the two of them, bowed slightly, and said with a little disgust: "Two donors, are you here to pray for blessings, or to make wishes?"

Lu Yezi saluted respectfully and said, "Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable! Lu Yezi of Maoshan Mountain, I have come to visit the Lord Baishui Half-Immortal, Jia Immortal." ”

Xiao Daotong raised his head when he heard this, and said impatiently: "The family teacher is far away, not in the view." Pray for blessings and vows, the trail can be received on your behalf, if you want to see my immortal chief, you must send a prayer post early, and you can only see it when the immortal chief agrees. ”

Hearing Xiao Daotong say this, the two of them were convinced that the rumors in the market were true, and it seemed that this Baishui Half-Immortal was indeed a profound master.

Lu Yezi hurriedly smiled at Xiaodao Tong and said, "Don't worry, don't worry." If Jia Xianchang is not there, he will talk to you. Since you and I are under the Sanqing Sect, there is something to ask for in the poor road today, and I hope that the fairy child will answer. ”

Xiaodao Tong glanced at Lu Yezi and said, "I can't be the master!"

"Fairy boy later!" Lu Yezi hurriedly stopped, "Poor Dao traveled here from Maoshan Mountain, and heard that this place was tragically plagued by demons and evils, and Poor Dao couldn't bear it, so he wanted to practice the Fa to drive him, but he was in a hurry, and his body was incomplete, so he came here to ask some incense table paper money to go back, and he returned it with Bi Dingdang......

"Don't borrow, don't borrow! You can go quickly!" Without waiting for Lu Yezi to say any more, Xiao Daotong hurriedly retreated and closed the door.

Before the meeting, Xiao Daotong was so unreasonable, Liang Shiming was also dissatisfied, how could he ask someone to do something now, so he had to persuade him with good words, at this time he was about to step forward and ask again, but saw that Lu Yezi had already rushed up with a strong step, pushed Xiao Daotong away, and scolded: "You give me a side!" Before the words fell, the person had already broken into the temple.

"Hey, you are so unreasonable, how can you break into my house!" Xiao Daotong shouted and stepped forward to drag Lu Yezi.

At this time, Lu Yezi just ran a few steps, and felt that the little Taoist boy behind him was chasing, he leaned back suddenly, only to hear the sound of "ahhhhhh

Liang Shiming helped Xiaodao Tong up, said with concern, "Xiaodao Chief, are you okay?"

At this time, Xiao Daotong lost all his arrogant momentum, his face was ugly, and he looked anxious about to cry.

"Hurry, hurry, help me stop him, or the master will kill me!" said Xiao Daotong as he chased after him to the backyard.

Liang Shiming followed Xiaodaotong all the way to Sandao Courtyard, at this moment he just entered the courtyard gate, almost bumped into a woman running towards him, although Liang Shiming did not see the appearance of this woman clearly, but felt a burst of strong fragrance, which caused dizziness and swelling, and at this time, he heard a cry of ghosts in the courtyard.
