Chapter 16: The Strange Man (Ask for Collection, Ask for Recommendation)
At this time, it was already evening, and there were almost no pilgrims in the temple, and Jiang Liu saw that there was still this meal around him, and it was estimated that it was the disciples below, and he didn't have a meal at noon and handed it to him.
Jiang Liu really didn't expect the other party to sit down and sit here for so long, and turned back to Chisong and asked.
"Did the other party behave strangely, what did he say, did he say that he needed any help?"
"No, I asked before, he just didn't speak, he belonged to the donkey, yes, he didn't say a word. Just sit there. Akamatsu said helplessly.
Jiang Liu didn't eat the food next to the strange man, he sat like this almost all day, not a drop of rice, not a drop of water, and sitting on the side of the mountain, it was very windy and easy to blow his body, this is a show talent, could it be that he was hurt by falling off the list?
Jiang Liu stepped forward directly, saw that his expression was full of trance, and directly recited the heart mantra to him, hoping to calm the other party down a little.
Jiang Liu saw that the other party's expression had eased, and said to him: "This benefactor, our temple is about to close, and a curfew will be imposed outside, if you go back to the city now, you can go back." ”
When the man heard that Jiang Liu was going to drive him away, his face suddenly changed greatly, and his eyes were wide and full of fear.
"No, don't drive me away, please. The man's face was pale without a trace of blood, and he grabbed Jiang Liu's thigh, also trembling with extreme fear.
This scene was unexpected and unexpected to everyone.
The strange man who had been sitting there all day suddenly pounced on the river and hugged his thighs tightly. Akamatsu and several monks behind him were immediately furious, thinking that they were plotting against the abbot.
"What are you doing? Hurry up and let go, you are trying to be disrespectful to the Buddha?" Akamatsu was about to rush up and pull the man away.
"It's okay, stand down. ”
Jiang Liu waved his hand and motioned for everyone to stand back.
Jiang Liu looked at the man, he had no ill will towards him, and he was an ordinary talent. In the realm of quenching his body 6 times, even if he stood here and let him kill, he would not be able to hurt himself.
The man looked at Jiang Liu and said pleadingly, "Master, you must not twist me away, I won't cause trouble to the temple, just let me sit outside the temple for one night." ”
"What's the problem with you, let's see if I can help you?" Jiang Liu asked suspiciously.
"Mage, I can't leave here, I should be haunted by a ghost, save me, I'll die if I leave here. ”
Jiang Liu didn't speak, and carefully examined the man again, but still didn't find any demonic energy, but found a trace of luck. However, it is only a few inches high, and it is estimated that he obtained it by showing his talent, which is far worse than himself.
You can observe the size of the power of luck, which Jiang Liu studied overnight yesterday, and anyone who has a little cultivation can basically see it. What's more, after Jiang Liu was conferred, he also had the power of luck and an edict for him to study.
"So, you tell me in detail from the beginning, what the hell is going on, I can see if I can help you. ”
This man, named Li Qing, is a jinshi, and he is still a top three, and the position of Tanhua is also a good official position. The mansion has everything, and the small life is not bad, but the day before yesterday, when I woke up, the whole family was missing except for him, and there was no trace of him.
In the end, the government Ying Longwei was dispatched, but nothing was investigated in the end. Until now, he was so scared, he had been having nightmares for the past two days, as if there was something terrible haunting him. Until now, he has a home and can't go back, and he doesn't dare to go back.
Ying Longwei, this is a department that specializes in dealing with monsters and filthy things, at least the realm of quenching the body can be hired, Liu Hong was once a Ying Longwei.
Jiang Liu showed a dignified expression, if Ying Longwei was not dispatched in this matter, it would be a bizarre disappearance case at most, but if Ying Longwei was dispatched, it would be absolutely unusual. It seems that he used the power of Confucianism and the power of imperial luck to survive, no wonder there is so little luck.
What kind of monster dares to do it to the court officials who have the power of luck in Chang'an City.
"Tell me, are there any anomalies lately?"
"Recently, when I went to sleep, I always felt that someone was around me, my whole body was cold, I always felt that someone was pestering me, and I had an extra mark on my hand. Li Qing said with fear.
Jiang Liu carefully stared at the mark on the man's hand, a mysterious black symbol, revealing an evil aura, Jiang Liu's face changed suddenly: "This... It's a curse!"
Some of the timid monks were already frightened enough and a little panicked.
At first glance, Chisong is a person who has seen the world, his face has changed, and Jiang Liu has nothing to do with it, he has fought a monster before, and he has killed a monster, and it is not impossible to defeat, and there are many Buddhist sects, it dares to come and definitely kill it.
Jiang Liu was most concerned about this mark, he didn't even feel anything abnormal, and he even avoided his spiritual sense, which already explained something.
After checking the mark with Akamatsu several times, they finally confirmed that it was something similar to a mark, and the two of them guessed that they might come to him later. But he didn't say anything, for fear of causing Li Qing's panic.
Jiang Liu finally asked again, but he didn't ask anything of much value, and finally Jiang Liu decided to take Li Qing to the temple.
It was too late to move around too much to go to the other party's house, and he wanted to see what was so filthy that it was haunting.
Li Qing was arranged to rest in a room, very close to the river and the red pine, if there was any wind and grass, they could both hear it.
Jiang Liu returned to his room, took out his robe and Zen staff, and stood in the courtyard. Jiang Liu has a hunch that there may be something filthy to haunt it tonight.
Jiang Liu was quietly in the courtyard, constantly practicing boxing, practicing for a while and resting, and then drinking a little soaked orange peel tea. A third of the orange peel in the river is gone, and it will be gone after soaking it once at most.
Time passed little by little, and the monster had not yet come, and the time was close to 12 o'clock in the evening.
Tonight, many monks who had cultivated fairly well were not allowed to sleep and were cultivating in their respective rooms. They knew something big might happen tonight.
Suddenly, the moon seemed to be obscured by a black cloud, the light dimmed, and the wind gradually rose.
Jiang Liu, who was sitting quietly drinking tea, raised his head suddenly, drank the tea in the pot directly in one gulp, picked up the Zen staff inserted in the ground, and rushed towards Li Qing's position.
On the other side, the red pine also moved at the first time, but it was still full of water.
