Chapter 8 Respecting the Law and Taoism
Three days later, Li Ji returned from Shuangcheng and saw that the people in the town were in turmoil, and they were all rumors about it. However, he was a non-believer, and his materialist education in his previous life was deeply rooted in nearly 40 years, so how could he believe in such an ethereal story of gods and monsters? I think it was just someone who used a trick to scare people into covering up the truth.
If you don't believe it, Li Ji doesn't have the brains to find out the truth, this is his principle of being a man, how much appetite he eats, how much ability he has to do how much great things, unless there is no other way, he will never do anything unpredictable beyond his own strength.
This is the foundation of Li Ji's ability to survive in this strange world, this is a real world, you can't be like in the online article, you can't not have a long brain, you can't control your curiosity, how many lives are not enough. Just like the people and things in Cixi Town, he is not without enemies, and there are many opponents with malicious intentions, but he is still forbearant enough, one is to accumulate his own strength, and the other is to wait for an opportunity to kill and fly away with one blow.
Therefore, after arranging for people to block the road to the manor, Li Ji was also happy to practice swordsmanship at home. The only thing that made him strange was that whether it was Qiang Fu Xujihai, who was always standing on the moral high ground, or Xiao Ziming, an old official who wanted him to be unlucky, and Wang Dahu, who was always domineering, they had no objection to his indifferent attitude. Maybe ~ they think this thing is far beyond my ability?
Is it because of the so-called Taoist master? Li Ji thought in his heart... It seems that the whole town of Cixi is full of confidence in Daoye, and they are waiting with confidence, preparing all kinds of receptions, as if they are preparing for a grand festival... It seems that compared with the aborigines of this world, I still lack a certain cultural and historical understanding...
Undecided, Li Ji hurried back to the town office, but was told that Qiang Fu and others had rushed to the mansion in Wang Dahu Town, so he went to Wang Dahu's mansion in the west of the town. This old way seems to be a person who will enjoy, in Cixi, Wang Dahu's mansion is undoubtedly the most extensive and luxurious place, Li Ji is also the first time to come in, there is something in his heart, and he has no intention of appreciating those carved beams and painted columns, under the guidance of the subordinate, he went straight to the small living room.
Seven or eight people stood respectfully in the hall, Xu Jihai, Xiao Ziming, Wang Dahu, and a few village elders, only a thin and dry white-haired old Taoist sat on the Taishi chair, his eyes slightly closed, and he crossed his legs.
Li Ji sang a fat song, "I'm sorry everyone, I just knew that the master was here in person, so I didn't delay the business, right?"
A few people looked at it, there was kindness and disdain in their eyes, Xiao Ziming yin-yang weird and said: "You have a good face, but let the master wait, you dance at home with a knife and a stick?"
Li Ji didn't pay attention to him, the Taoist didn't move, and his eyes didn't open, Xu Jihai saw this, and hurriedly said: "We have just arrived, and the master has already made up his mind on this matter, why don't you share a thing or two with you?"
"There is a husband...... Li Ji saw that everyone was standing, and he was not embarrassed to sit.
"For the sake of Cixi, after hearing about it, Master Chongfa immediately rushed from Shuangcheng, more than 200 miles, and arrived in one night, he is really compassionate and morally noble..."
After a sycophant first, Xu Jihai turned to the topic,
"Before the master entered the town, he had already gone to the murderous house to observe the spirit, and he returned with some gains. The guru said that such a demonic spirit is at the time when the foundation of his womb is changing, and it is urgent to go to the murderous house to open the altar at noon tomorrow.
The Guru has a Dharma weapon, which is a mysterious and mysterious thing, but we mortals have no way to raise it, and the Guru has his own preparations, but there is one thing, in order to prevent the monster from escaping, there must be four people who are full of blood and energy, and have great courage, each holding a Taoist object, in order to set the eyes of the array... After thinking about it, these four people still need to be the consul general..."
After that, his eyes seemed to inadvertently glance at Xiao Ziming beside him, Li Ji still didn't understand, it must be Xiao Ziming, the old horseman, who took advantage of his absence to make himself disgusting, and he didn't answer, but who knew that the chair was heavy: "The blood is strong, but!"
Li Ji didn't say a word, and was blocked back, it seems that this errand can't be avoided. So far, he is still half-skeptical of the so-called monster, looking at this person, he is more like a swaggering liar, so he is not too worried, anyway, there is a Taoist in front, and there are three other people in the array, even if there is really a powerful monster, with his skills, it is better than those few gangsters who escaped, so that there is no chance to escape.
As a wanderer, he has to be supported by Cixi people, and now that he has difficulties, he must always take responsibility, so he does not shirk:
"The master has an order, and An dares not to obey, but there are three others, but which one is it?"
Xujihai said: "The brave people in the town, if they are not swimming, they can't argue clearly, why don't you recommend one or two from San Lang?"
Secretly scolded the old fox, refusing to offend people in vain, Li Ji glanced at Xiao Ziming, thinking about finding someone who had a close relationship with the old horseman, and took revenge, but after thinking about it, he couldn't find a strong man who was close to the old horseman, and secretly called bad luck, so he had to put the abacus on the side of the richest man Wang, this Wang Dahu, who is used to dominating the township, has no reason to be out of the people, so he faced Wang Dahu, and said slightly:
"Shi Dawu, the leader of your family's nursing home, is in the prime of life, skilled in martial arts, and courageous, so he can be one of the people who set up the formation. ”
