Chapter 4 It's all a routine
Late at night, a lonely moon.
In the Nancheng Temple, candles are lit in the clean room.
Duranke looked at his apprentice with a depressed face, and sighed with hatred that iron could not become steel.
"Didn't go inside?" he asked.
"Got in. The apprentice snorted: "But I didn't try it......
"What do you mean?"
He ...... He's so deep! I can't feel the edge at all......"
"I threw the Juyin Pill into that well, and the strengthened ghost thing was killed by him with a sword before it could breathe. Then my invisibility talisman couldn't hide from his eyes, and I was caught. β
The disciple was still a little scared when he mentioned it.
"You were caught?" Duranke immediately looked at his apprentice worriedly, and asked with great concern, "You didn't confess to your teacher, did you?"
"Nope. The apprentice shook his head resolutely.
Duranke patted his apprentice's shoulder with satisfaction, "It's really worthy of being a teacher's beloved apprentice." β
The apprentice looked at the master's praise and silently swallowed back the words "because he didn't ask".
After a while, Du Daochang asked again, "Then they just let you back?"
"It's not that simple. The apprentice said, "He took away a gourd Juyin Pill from me, and said...... He also said that he would send two more gourds over tomorrow, and this matter would be over......"
"A few gourds gather yin pill ......"
Du Daochang twitched his cheek in pain.
Nancheng view of a small family and a small business, it is not easy to refine a few furnaces of Juyin Dan, that gourd has been used for many years, how many gourds can be promised this night?
"Since they didn't ask about your teacher, it must be okay if you don't send it back. β
Who knew that the apprentice Zhengse looked at him and said very seriously: "Master, how can you be a man of your word without trust?"
"Huh. Du Daochang looked surprised: "Why didn't I find that your kid's consciousness is so high before." β
The apprentice smiled wryly, "That...... I swore a poisonous oath to them before I left. β
"I can't count them. Du Daochang waved his hand: "As long as you are pious to the Dao Ancestor, no matter what poisonous oath he swears, his old man will block it for you." β
"I said that if I didn't deliver it as promised tomorrow, I would let my parents die, my teacher died violently, my classmates died, and I was left alone and disabled......"
"Open the furnace, alchemy. β
Du Daochang didn't say a word, and stood up.
"Hey, hey. The apprentice breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Then this matter is over." β
"It's over?" Du Daochang's face turned pale, "How can it be so easy!"
"Master......" The apprentice immediately became nervous again: "Although there are not many people in Deyunguan, that little Taoist priest is really a hard stubble, let's not ......"
"Needless to say. Du Daochang raised his hand: "This time our means are too direct, tentative...... Actually, there is no need to do it yourself. β
The apprentice looked at him silently, and said in his heart that it would be better if you had thought like this earlier.
Duranke was about to go out when he suddenly turned around and glared at his apprentice.
"Remember to swear next time not to involve anyone else. β
......
Deyun view.
Li Chu sat in the courtyard with his eyes closed, his sword in front of his knees.
The fox girl walked over and asked, "Master, why didn't you ask who sent that person just now?"
"When asked, he wouldn't necessarily tell the truth. Li Chu said: "Just let him pay some price." β
"But...... I don't know who the enemy is in the shadows, but it's always a little ......" The fox girl was still a little worried.
"Who said I didn't know?" Li Chu asked rhetorically.
"Well, you didn't have ...... just now," the fox girl didn't understand what he meant.
"I didn't know just now, but let him go? Li Chu opened his eyes, his eyes were clear.
Just now, he followed the disciple all the way back to Nanchengguan with his mind, and determined where this person came from.
In fact, before he went back, Li Chu guessed eight or nine. After all, if you are a newcomer, there is a reason to stumble on them?
There will be direct competition, that is, this one.
As he was talking, the yin qi was surging in the well ahead, and the second ghost creature came out tonight.
"It hurtsβ"
A bright red skinning ghost crawled up the edge of the well, and every time it climbed, a bright red blood mark was left on the ground.
Crawling out, it saw a man and a woman staring at it faintly.
There was anticipation in his eyes.
Is there something not right?
The skinning ghost was stunned, but it didn't care? It continued to complete the task diligently, and roared gloomily:
"Can you give me your skinsβ"
"Well, I'll give you something to eat. β
Li Chu raised his hand and threw out a cyan pill that exuded cold air, and the pill rolled in front of the skinning ghost.
Well?
The skinner was stunned again.
What a strong yin qi? I want to ......
But......
What does he mean by giving me this?
It was eager to take this elixir that would make it stronger, but ...... I feel very undignified.
Don't you hear that you will die of hunger and will not be fed with food?
But......
I'm already dead.
And......
It looked at Li Chu with those horrible eyeballs that bulged outward, and felt that he was quite good-looking.
This little Taoist priest may be thinking ...... Bribe me?
Well.
After a few changes of thought, the skin-peeling ghost did not hesitate to eat the yin-rich elixir.
Boom β
Is it that simple as that to increase the strength of the ghost thing? The yin qi around its body suddenly exploded, and its body size skyrocketed in an instant!
"Roarβ"
Even the roar became neutral!
It looked at the little Taoist priest again with its huge eyeballs, and decided that if he could take out a few more of these pills, he would not eat him.
But as soon as it had made its decision, it saw the little Taoist priest slowly draw his sword.
Wait a minute......
He's ......
Before it could think clearly, it saw a red dragon coming. Oh, it's hot.
It could never have imagined that the moment when it had just reached the peak of its ghost life was the last moment of its ghost life, and it had only one thought in its mind at this moment.
.
It's all a routine.
......
To Li Chu's surprise, business came to the door early the next morning.
As soon as the door opened in the morning, the fox girl happily welcomed people in.
It was a guy from the infirmary.
This young man looked left and right, his eyes hesitant, and he seemed to be a little uncertain about Deyun's strength.
But when he came to Li Chu, he still honestly told about his troubles.
"I'm an apprentice at the Nancheng Medical Center, and there's been an evil in our medical center in the past two days. β
The young man mentioned this incident, and there was still some fear on his face.
"My master is the famous Liu Yishou in Nancheng, he used to go to the Hanging Pot Villa as a registered disciple, and he was very good at treating external injuries, especially proficient in limb replacement. β
"My master is also very good, every winter, when the weather is cold, there are many beggars who suffer from frostbite on their hands and feet, and my master will take them in for free and help them treat their wounds. So at this time, there will be a lot of people in the hospital. β
"But a strange thing happened two days ago, that night, a patient in the hospital was inexplicably missing an arm!"
"Ask him what happened, and he didn't know what was going on. β
And then ...... The next night, another man was missing an arm!"
"My master arranged for a few of our brothers to keep vigil, and the result was ...... One of my brothers bumped into the man who took his arm......"
"No, it's not a human, it's a ghost!"
"It took my brother's arm away......"
"Now we don't dare to stay in the hospital at night, but this is not a long-term solution. β
"I've heard that a new Deyun Temple has opened here, and the Taoist chief in it is very powerful...... Chief, can you help us with this?"
"I'll do my best. Li Chu bowed his head slightly, and then asked with some doubts: "This ghost thing you are talking about never harms people's lives, but only takes people's arms?"
"Yes. The young man nodded, "And...... There were a few patients in the clinic who injured their left hand, and nothing happened. It doesn't seem to have a right hand, just a left hand!"
"Just the left hand?"
Li Chu frowned, not understanding why.
Clearly...... The right hand is better than the left hand.
