"Master, the little one and Niu Er searched in this city several times, and finally found a set of courtyards on the west side of the city. In line with the master's instructions, there is a vegetable field to grow vegetables, it turned out to be a second-grade house, and later this master offended the national teacher and was imprisoned by the whole family, and then the family disappeared, presumably long ago. This house was taken out by the government and sold, it was very cheap, covering an area of five acres, only 3,600 taels. Ma Yichun stood aside in a proper manner and reported to Lu Xihua.

After returning to the city that night, several people stayed in the inn, and since Lu Xihua had accepted the domestic servants, he didn't have to worry about finding a house, and arranged for Ma Yi Niu Er. In the past few days, Ma Yiniu and Er have been looking for houses everywhere in this city, leaving early and returning late, and Lu Xihua did not set a time limit, but only asked them to look carefully. This is the first errand after the two of them took refuge in Lu Xihua, and it is not a hurtful thing, so they naturally do their best, and they will come back and report to the master as soon as they have good news.

Before Ma Yichun's words fell, Niu Erhua couldn't help but say on the side, "Master, that house is haunted!"

Lu Xihua was happy when he heard this, and said with a smile, "The two of you are cultivating the ghost path, dealing with the ghosts of the dead every day, are you afraid of ghosts?"

Ma Yichun pulled Niu Erhua's sleeve, bent down and replied, "So that the master knows." The younger two knew that what they had learned before was an evil way. I don't dare to use it anymore, and I hope that the old man will teach me some self-defense skills. Niu Erhua followed behind Ma Yichun with a red face, obviously this was also what he said in his heart.

Lu Xihua shook his head, "A knife can kill people and save people." If you follow me, I will tell you the principles of my conduct and work. ”

Ma Yichun and Niu Erhua heard that Master Lu was going to give instructions, so they hurriedly leaned up and listened with their ears.

Lu Xihua said, "I have always acted to repay kindness and grievances, and you should act in the same way. However, there must be basic rules for behaving and acting, and the right and wrong in the world are not so clear, and good and evil are in an instant. You do things according to your own hearts, and you must not oppress the good, nor do you see evil and fail to get rid of it, but you must do everything to eliminate evil, and you cannot let go of the culprit because of a moment of softness. ”

"Master, what if that murderer begs for mercy and is willing to repent and reform himself?" Niu Erhua asked.

Lu Xihua said angrily, "The way of heaven is clear, and it has its own law, and it cannot be discussed in one way." Your master and ancestor begged me for mercy, but I didn't let them go. Where there is a unified standard for doing things in the world, it is just based on the original heart, but where this original heart is so easy to find, there is naturally more or less bias between them, and at this time, it is naturally the big fist that has the final say! Let's all slowly comprehend it in the future, and I am also slowly participating in it. Speaking of this, Lu Xihua smiled, revealing the two rows of snow-white teeth in his mouth.

Ma Yichun and Niu Erhua saw the old man's white teeth, their hearts trembled, and they remembered that the old man was also a master who killed people without blinking.

Lu Xihua continued, "Since humans, demons, and ghosts exist between this heaven and earth, they naturally have their own reasons, and they are all good and bad. We kill the evil and keep the good, and do our little bit. Your method of the ghost path is not an evil method, but only a manifestation of external forces, and as long as you do not persist in doing evil, then what is it? Cultivating to a high level can also prove that the asuras and yaksha are far better than your ancestors' nondescript heavenly ghosts. ”

Ma Yichun and Niu Er nodded as if they didn't understand, and Lu Xihua said, "Since that house is haunted, you two will go and take a look." The good spirits are kept, and the evil spirits are caught. The two of you, one eye and one hand, can complement each other, and there is no problem in thinking about it. As soon as he raised his hand, a stack of silver tickets fell in front of the two of them, "You can use this money to buy the courtyard first." ”

Lu Xihua thought about it again, "I'll give you another protective spell, which will be activated when you encounter damage, which is enough to protect yourself." After speaking, with a flick of his finger, two pale golden rays of light shot at the two of them respectively. Ma Yiniu Er's body suddenly flashed with eight-sided shield armor, rotated around his body, and after a while, he disappeared in his body, and he couldn't see it, it was the six vajra mantras that Lu Xihua used before.

Ma Yiniu Er's face was full of joy, this spell was used by the master, and the evil ghosts of the master and ancestor could not get close for a moment, how could the little ghost in the Ququ house succeed, and said in unison at the moment, "Thank you for the curse!" The master gave a protective spell, and now he was safe, and the two turned around and left.

"If that ghost is powerful, if you can't wait, you will retreat immediately, I will deal with my own master, you are the people of my Lu family, and the safety of your life is the first. Lu Xihua's voice came from far behind, Ma Niu and the two were so relieved, they were different from a good boss, they didn't have to work hard like before, they would have to worry about their lives if they didn't do well, the master didn't speak, they couldn't retreat without permission, if the master got angry, he and others would become nourishment.

At that moment, the two of them left the inn and went straight to Yaxing.

Seeing that the two of them were going and returning soon, Ya Xing Ya Lang was happy in his heart, this business can be successful! Hurriedly greeted him, "The two masters are optimistic? That house is really cheap, you don't buy it, but you missed this good thing in vain." ”

Niu Erhua said angrily, "Such a good thing, why do you have to wait five or six years for my two brothers to take their turn?

Yalang sneered, did not dare to answer, everyone in the city knew that there were ghosts in this house, several times bought and out, within two days, the residents hurriedly moved out, although no one died, but this reputation has long spread throughout the city, how can anyone dare to live in it. These two people came from other places, and they wanted to find a place to stay in this city, the house should be large, and there should be a garden in it, and they couldn't find a satisfactory place for a few days. These two people took a cursory look at the shape of the house during the day, and said that they would go back to report, and they came back soon, and I am afraid that they are still a little moved.

Thinking of this, Yalang opened his mouth and said with a smile, "The two masters are the people of Fuze Shenhou at first glance, and the auspicious stars shine brightly, and they will not be afraid of the little ghost in the house." As soon as the two masters went, the little ghost naturally fled, and wouldn't it be beautiful to buy such a big mansion for 3,600 taels?"

Ma Yichun waved his hand, "Yalang is a good skill, this dead can be said to be alive." My brothers and I don't say much to you, but I will ask you, and you will tell you the truth. ”

Yalang hurriedly shouted, "Master just ask, I Zhang Qiao Danfan has a lie, telling me to go out immediately and die on the street!"

Ma Yichun didn't care about this person's gambling curse and swearing, in his opinion, the heavens have their own fixed number, haven't you seen the image of the old man's gods?

Ma Yichun was upright and said, "Let me ask you, the house has been haunted for many years, but someone died because of it?" When Niu Erhua heard this, his eyes also glared at Yalang, hoping that he would understand.

Ya Lang's heart was plopping, nervous, and thought that these two masters were going to ask some questions, but as soon as Ma Yichun spoke, he knew that it was such a simple thing, and he slapped his chest loudly at the moment, "So that the two masters know that although this house has been haunted for five or six years, there has not been a single life, not even a skin injury." It's just that the people who came out were red-faced, bowed their heads and didn't say anything, and they couldn't answer everyone's questions, but they just moved out early. ”

As soon as Ma Yichun heard this, he understood in his heart that the ghost in this house was only afraid that he was a good ghost and would not hurt people's lives.

Niu Erhua couldn't bear it on the side and asked, "You haven't looked for a monk or Taoist priest to come to exorcise ghosts." ”

Yalang's face was cramped, "The national teacher is in power, and the whole country believes in Buddhism." We also found some monks to come to do things, but it was useless, this Taoist priest, I haven't seen one in the city, and the Taoist priest of Youfang is also rare, and I haven't met it. Could it be that the two masters are Taoist priests?!"

The national teacher Pudu Cihang has held the court for many years, and there are often Buddhism gods to show the world, attracting the whole country to worship the Buddha as the Lord, Taoist incense is scarce, not allowed to survive, it has long been deserted for a long time, I am afraid that there are still some Taoist priests in the deep mountains and old forests, in this rich and noble world, but one has not been seen.

Ma Yichun said, "What kind of Taoist priests are we, just businessmen." Okay, since the house is cheap, we will buy it, you can make a deed. ”

When Yalang heard this, he immediately smiled, "The two masters will let the villain for a while, and they will come when they go and prepare." ”

This house is an official sale, the procedure is naturally fast, the price is preferential, not long after, Ya Lang will come over with the deed in hand, the haunted house deed tax is naturally cheap, 3% also need one hundred and eight taels of silver, this money fell into the government, Ya Lang and then ten taels of intermediary fees, everyone is very happy, such a set of five acres of land house was Lu Xihua into the bag, Ma Niu and the two can naturally come and go at will. Our Master Lu naturally has to wait for the servants to collect the ghosts before moving in, otherwise he will not be demoted.

That night, two figures appeared in the middle hall of the mansion.
