Sun Xianling of Zhuxiang County is a skinny old man, with charitable eyebrows and a gentle temper, any family will come to him for help if they are in trouble, and he will stand up for justice as soon as there is anything wrong in the county.

In short, this Sun County Order (shēn) is worn by the people (ài).

Although Sun Mansion is a house, it is not much bigger than ordinary people's houses, the reason why it is said to be a house, that is, it sounds good, and it seems that Sun County's order is superior, but Sun Zhenglin never cares about these haves or not, and being a good official is the reason.

The servant soon came to a pavilion with Hua Wenxiang and the others, and in the pavilion sat a slender old man with furrowed brows, as if thinking about something (qíng), and did not notice Hua Wenxiang's arrival.

The servant stepped forward and said softly: "Master, there are a few little immortals in our house, saying that they can help our Zhuxiang County solve that strange matter." ”

While the servant was speaking, Sun Zhenglin had already walked out of his thoughts, and then while listening to the servant's words, he looked at the flowers and fragrance. After the servant finished speaking, Sun Zhenglin hurriedly got up (shēn) and came to Hua Wenxiang and the others.

Among this crowd, only Ruluo looks like some supernatural people, and the rest are men and women, who can only be said to be good-looking, and they can't see any ability.

Sun Zhenglin faced Ruluo, "Little Master can really solve that strange thing?"

The flower Wenxiang and Tu Yuelian, who were ignored on the side, were a little embarrassed.

Ruluo said with a smile: "We only know part of this matter, and we have to ask Sun County Ling to tell us in detail." ”

Sun Zhenglin said: "Yes, yes, please sit down." ”

So saying, he led the people into the pavilion, and then let the servant go about himself.

The people he sent out only today (rì) went to Taishou to ask for help, if you count according to the footsteps, the short is three (rì), the long is half a decade before those people can come, during this period he can wait, but the girls in the county can't wait, if this continues, these girls in the county who are about twenty years old will become old women.

Sun Zhenglin observed Hua Wenxiang and a few people, and felt that the face was all (tǐng) kind, that is, the fat cat (tǐng) wearing clothes was strange, and there were even people dressing a cat, what a strange thing, and asked, "How many of them are cultivators?"

Hua Wenxiang agreed.

Sun Zhenglin was afraid that a few people would not have enough kung fu, so he asked again: "The realm is not low, right? Don't misunderstand, I don't mean anything else when I say this, but I'm afraid that I will encounter some danger when the time comes, and it will affect a few of you." ”

Hua Wenxiang said: "We have been dedicated to subduing demons and eliminating demons all the way, and there is nothing that is not involved, it is all our duty." ”

Sun Zhenglin was a little surprised, he had obviously been talking to the monk all along, why did this young man keep rushing to answer.

Hua Wenxiang also seemed to notice this, pointed to Ruluo, and said embarrassedly: "My friend is very capable, although Sun Xianling can rest assured, there will be no accidents." ”

After that, Sun Zhenglin told a few people in detail about the strange things about the woman getting old, in fact, it was not much worse than what I heard from those men in the restaurant before.

This strange incident has never happened before, and Sun Zhenglin, who has been the county magistrate in Zhuxiang County for decades, is also the first time he has encountered such a difficult matter (qíng).

According to Sun Zhenglin, there were more than 20 officers and soldiers guarding more than 30 young women at that time, and afterwards they heard from those officers and soldiers that their consciousness suddenly disappeared that night, and when they woke up again, they didn't remember anything, which was even more complete than waking up the next day when they were drunk.

Sun Zhenglin at first thought that these officers and soldiers had been drugged with sweat, but it was not until later that an officer and soldier found him, saying that he was in a hurry to urinate that night, during which he went to the thatched house, and escaped by luck, he hid in the shadows, and clearly saw the black smoke coming out of everyone's heads, and the black smoke finally merged into one and turned into a person, who was full of white hair, and his face was black and blue like a dead man.

Sun Zhenglin said: "The reason why I didn't spread this matter is because I am afraid that people will be afraid. Alas, our Zhuxiang County is located in a remote area, and there is not a single monk in the county, so when you encounter this kind of ghost, you can only find help from above, and you have to delay a lot of things (qíng) when you come and go. ”

Ruluo said: "It seems that this dirty thing is a nightmare." ”

Hua Wenxiang asked, "Is this kind of thing difficult to deal with?"

Ruluo thought back to what the master had said to him before, and said after a while: "This kind of thing is average in strength, but it is cunning and ruthless, and it will flee immediately when it is in danger, and it is difficult to arrest. ”

Sun Zhenglin listened to the word nightmare, and felt more and more that this tall monk was well-informed, and he really came all the way to subdue demons and eliminate demons, and all ghosts knew it.

Tu Yuelian said: "Then you can put up a formation or something, and when the time comes, block its retreat and catch turtles in an urn." ”

Ruluo nodded and said, "I'll set up a barrier in advance, and when I attract it, we'll close the door and beat the dog." ”

Hua Wenxiang praised: "It's a good way." ”

He hadn't seen a nightmare since he was so old, and he was very interested in this interesting ghost.

Sun Zhenglin was excited, "How many people can really subdue this monster?"

Ruluo nodded and said: "Sun County Order, you help us gather more than a dozen women tonight, let's lead the snake out of the hole, and then Yuelian, you will also join the ranks of those women, and strive to seriously injure that nightmare, and Xiaohua and I will pretend to be soldiers, ready to capture this ghost." ”

Sun Zhenglin stood up directly, clenched his fists, "Thank you a few little immortals, thank you a few little immortals, I'm going to find someone to gather women." Agui, help me take care of these distinguished guests. ”

So saying, he called the servant again, and then he went to find someone to help gather the woman of about twenty years old.

Hei Qiu'er asked Tu Yuelian in a whisper, "You all went to hunt ghosts, what should I do?"

Tu Yuelian also muttered: "When the time comes, you can find a place where no one is there to hide, and when it comes to the evening, I will ask Sun County Ling to get you some food, let's help him, he will definitely eat and drink well to entertain us." ”

Black Ball nodded, "This can be there." ”

Sun Zhenglin's movements were very neat, and soon more than a dozen women gathered, all of them with sad faces, like lambs waiting to be slaughtered, with no hope of life, and then they could only wait for the bad news of getting old, which was worse than death.

Sun Zhenglin suddenly felt a sense of relief, as if there was really hope that the problem that had plagued him (rì) could be solved. The old county magistrate was in a lot of spirits, and he didn't know where the motivation came from, and he decided to see the brute who had been harming women tonight.

In the evening, Tu Yuelian asked Sun Zhenglin to make some food for Hei Qiu'er, and specially instructed her to make more, and then put Hei Qiu'er and many meals in a room, telling it not to come out if it had nothing to do.

More than a dozen women gathered at Sun Zhenglin's house, and in order to behave more naturally, everyone endured the fear in their hearts, or chatted about embroidery, or read books and play music. Tu Yuelian joined in and kept holding her breath and concentrating, doing nothing, only occasionally looking at the warm fragrance and falling of the flowers dressed as officers and soldiers not far away.

More than a dozen officers and soldiers stood guard around the courtyard.

Sun Zhenglin also ignored the danger, sitting alone at the stone table and flipping through a book.

This condition lasted until the time of the child, when the night suddenly became cold, and Ruluo told Hua Wenxiang and Tu Yuelian in a heartfelt voice, "Be vigilant and try to take care of the people on the side of the (shēn)." ”

He has painted the formation around the Sun Mansion, and in the temple, they all say that Ruluo doesn't know anything about the formation, but that is compared to his masters and uncles, in the Ruzi generation, Ruluo is the youngest, but the study of the formation is not shallow, and many senior brothers are not comparable to him, as for the next generation, let alone say.

If you fall in the temple, it seems cynical, but you can learn everything quickly.

A faint black smoke suddenly appeared from the sky, and then dispersed into dozens of tiny wisps of black smoke, rushing towards the unaware women.

Against the backdrop of the night, the black smoke is difficult for ordinary people to detect.

Ruluo said: "It's coming!"

His mind moved slightly, and the formation words up and down the Sun Mansion shone with golden light, and then, the entire Sun Mansion was suddenly shrouded in a barrier.
