The Taoist chief wanted to say something comforting, but suddenly straightened up and looked out the window, and then said, "Shendi, come here, something seems to be wrong over there." ”

When he leaned on the windowsill to look, he saw a place that looked like a private house not far away, and there was a black gas on it, although it was dark under the night sky, and it was indistinguishable, but the immortal cultivators in that place knew at a glance that it was unusual.

Shen Di's eyes lit up, and he said excitedly to the Dao Chief: "It's Yin Qi!"

When this young man saw Yin Qi, he was as kind as seeing his own family. The Taoist chief glanced at him, and the latter understood, and one after the other gently and skillfully climbed down from the window, and ran on the roof of someone else's house.

Dao Chang ran silently, but he still felt like he was a thief. Shen Di directly turned his head in the air and landed firmly on the ground, and at the same time, he was startled and took a step back: "Master, look, isn't this the Zhao Mansion?

Before he finished speaking, the Taoist chief couldn't wait to jump over the wall without looking, and shouted no matter where he jumped: "Yun is free!"

"Master!" came an anxious response from a courtyard not far away. The red thread in Yun Xian's hand was entangled in a dark black thing, which looked fierce and abnormal, and was constantly letting out a low cry, trying to break free from the red thread. She pulled back the other end of the red thread with both hands, and squeezed out a few words from between her teeth: "I can't hold on to it!"

Without further ado, he pulled out the sword in his hand and rushed straight towards the mass of things. Seeing that the situation was not good, it actually directly "turned against the guest", turned around and wanted to crash directly into Yun Shu's face. The Taoist was afraid of hurting her, so he put away his sword in an instant, she let out an "ah-oh", fell back and sat on the ground, and the mass of things jumped to where it went, and disappeared in an instant.

All this happened only between the lightning and flint, so fast that before Shen Tu could react, he only had time to shout "Senior Sister!" and hurriedly ran over to help her up. Yun casually patted the dust on his body and his aching buttocks, and said in annoyance, "This thing hates it to death!

It turned out that not long after the Taoist and Shen Tu set off for Jinling, people from the Zhao Mansion came to the gate of Ling Xuguan. Zhao Yuanwai "admired the name of Xuanqing Daoist for a long time", so he personally went up the mountain to invite, but he didn't expect to pounce, and only Yun was alone. She flew five thousand paper cranes to the Taoist chief, and she followed Zhao Yuanwai and his family first.

"You'll have to wait until I'm back next time, you know!" the Taoist chief reproached, but his eyes couldn't help but look her up and down several times, and found that she was not missing arms or legs before relieving his heart.

"But Uncle Zhao is in a hurry, he looks so anxious," Yun casually whispered more and more: "He said that Aunt Xue was dying, so I just ran over......"

The Taoist chief inexplicably felt that the three words "Zhao Yuanwai" were somewhat familiar, as if he had heard them somewhere, but he just couldn't say them.

"Dying? Is that the mess just done?"

"Possibly, it just wanted to get into Aunt Xue's house. She was pregnant with a baby, but when I went to see her before, her face was very bad, as if she was dying. The bell rang as soon as I slept at night, and I ran out and saw it just in time, so I tied it up. ”

"If only you could let me take another look, let me see it again, I'll know what it is," Shen Tu said with a serious face, "This place is very yin, either a ghost or a little ghost." But whatever it is, I'm responsible for it!"

As soon as the Taoist chief wanted to say that not every ghost harms people is your fault, there are voices outside the wall from far and near, and the footsteps are still very urgent. Zhao Yuanwai and a few family members with torches hurriedly appeared at the door, he must have hurriedly got up from the bed, and rushed over before the clothes on his body were neatly dressed, just glaring at the Taoist chief, and asked hesitantly for a long time: "But Xuanqing Dao Chief?"

The Dao Leader nodded at him, and added, "This one next to him is also my apprentice, Li Hua." ”

"I don't call—"

"Li Hua, come and meet Zhao Yuanwai. ”

Shen Tu glanced at him very suspiciously, but still stepped forward and said, "Meet Zhao Yuanwai." ”

He had just changed into a black robe when he had just fallen down from the window of the inn, and now the whole person was gloomy, although he tried his best to create a peaceful expression on his face, Zhao Yuanwai still shivered inexplicably. Although he didn't know how these two people came in, he still said politely: "The two Taoist chiefs came from other places, presumably they were also tired of traveling, so Zhao ordered his subordinates to prepare two good wings for the three of them to rest." ”

"Feel free, are you sleepy?" asked the Taoist in a whisper, bending down to her.

"Not sleepy. ”

"Then there's no need," the Taoist chief rejected his kindness, "I think it's better for us to take a look at Madame Zun first." ”

"Then please. Zhao Yuanwai seemed to have been waiting for this sentence for a long time, and at the same time he gestured to his subordinates to open the door, and walked in quickly to see the person lying on the bed, looking very concerned. The woman lying on the bed had a delicate and soft face, but her eyes were closed, and she seemed to be sleeping, but cold sweat broke out on her forehead, and her lips were very pale, as if she was suffering from something. Even the Taoist Leader didn't react when they walked in.

"Ying'er, what do you think?" Zhao Yuanwai sat on the edge of the bed and called her gently, but she didn't expect her to let out a few painful moans and cover her stomach with her hands.

"No, it won't work. Shen Tu said suddenly, motioning for the others to get out of the way. He didn't know what he was reading, it was obviously summer, and it was very cold all of a sudden, and the cracks and corners of the windows and walls actually began to slowly condense a thick layer of frost, which made Zhao Yuanwai shiver from the cold. Yin Qi began to swirl around him, as if the whole person had fallen into boundless darkness. Then he reached out and gently stroked Xue Ying's belly.

Zhao Yuanwai didn't know what had happened in Shen Di, he believed the few people in front of him for no reason, so he swallowed the "what is this doing" that came to his mouth. Unexpectedly, Xue Ying's brows gradually relaxed, and her breathing changed from rapid to steady, and finally fell into a deep sleep.

"Master!" Shen Tu cried softly, "Look, look!

The Dao Leader knocked him lightly, and there was a little smile in his tone: "Put away the yin qi in your body, and see if your senior sister is cold!"

Zhao Yuanwai looked at all this dumbfounded, he looked at this and that, and finally walked gently to the side of the bed and looked at her for a while, bowed gratefully to the gods, and whispered: "Let's go out and talk and let her rest for a while." I've never seen her sleep so soundly. ”

Zhao Yuanwai walked out of the door and retired from the family, before he sighed slowly: "Somehow, since my wife became pregnant, she said every day that she dreamed of a little ghost with teeth and claws and said that she was going to ask for her life, and since then she has been losing weight day by day, and she can't sleep well." I don't know how many masters have been invited to practice before, but it has never been good. Seeing that the day of childbirth was approaching, he had no choice but to disturb the chief. ”

The Taoist had a faint thought in his heart: "May I ask if you have been to the Taoist temple of Taiyi Tianzun at the foot of the mountain before your wife is pregnant?"

"That's right, Daoist, how do you know?" Zhao Yuanwai said in surprise: "Tianzun is very effective, my wife can get pregnant this time, or we went to the Taoist temple to ask for it." ”

"It turns out that you two are the ones who treat me as a child Guanyin! The one who came to ask for a son on the first day was pregnant on the second day!" the Taoist roared in his heart, but he still looked calm on the surface: "We encountered a mess of things at the door of Mrs. Zun before, and it is estimated that it is that little ghost. There's no hurry, it's almost dawn now, and we'll catch it as soon as it comes tomorrow. ”

The Dao Leader said, glancing at the Shen Di who was eager to try and Yun Xian, who was actually sleepy, and continued: "My two apprentices are very reliable. ”

Zhao Yuanwai had seen the power of the gods, so he was convinced of the words of the Taoist chief. The next day they were all instructed to be hospitable. During this period, they also visited Xue Ying once. She had some strength compared to yesterday, and leaned on the edge of the bed haggardly, only smiling at them reluctantly.

"Dao Chief," Xue Ying suddenly called softly, motioning for him to stay: "Dao Chief, I'm ......"

He had never been with anyone who was pregnant, so he was more than a foot away, folded his hands over his chest and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"That ghost baby, can you ......" her voice was soft and weak, with a hint of pleading, "Can you let me meet it?" I want to talk to it......

This request was simply strange, but the Taoist chief didn't like to get to the bottom of it, so he agreed: "Okay, I'll catch it for you tonight." ”

This ghost hunt was unusual from the past, because the Taoist chief had no intention of participating. He wanted to leave this task to Yun Zhi and Shen Tu to do. It's been a few days now, and Shen Tu still doesn't get very close to Yun Casual, and he won't stand by her side unless he encounters something important. The Taoist chief thought that maybe it was a good opportunity for the two of them to get acquainted, and at night he deliberately said that he was too tired and wanted to rest, but in fact, he secretly stayed on the roof and secretly observed.

Yun Shu and Shen Tu stood stiffly for a while, and in order to break the silence, suddenly Shen Tu said, "Senior sister, I listen to you." ”

In fact, catching a ghost baby is easy for him, but he wants to experience the process of doing something with someone else more than the result, which should be much more interesting than "it comes - I jump out - I catch it".
