7: The wind wants to be quiet but the trees do not stop
Entered the backyard and came to a closed wing room, there were a few strong servants guarding the outer door, and when they saw that the comer had saluted, they were sent out to look at the courtyard, but Yi Fan found that there were a few yellow paper talismans pasted around the door.
"What is this?"
Master Chen smiled awkwardly and explained: "Recently, the city has not been peaceful, and demons have troubled it, so I invited some mages to draw some talismans to guard the house. ”
Yi Fan was stunned, but he smiled and didn't say anything, he didn't feel the slightest mana fluctuation on these talismans, I am afraid that it is the means of some charlatans, but it is still okay to ask for peace of mind.
Pushing open the door, there was a strong smell of Chinese medicine, Yi Fan frowned, looked inside, and found that the windows of the room were tightly sealed, impermeable to wind and light, the air in the room was turbid, and if he stayed in it for a long time, normal people would be depressed and panic.
"Master Chen, please open the window, the patient's condition will only deteriorate in such a closed environment, and there is no benefit. ”
"I see, I'm going to let people open the windows. ”
Master Chen asked the servant to open the window, and then led a few people into the inner room, where he saw two pretty maids guarding a bedside, and from time to time using a cloth towel dipped in water to wipe the sweat of the fish lying on the bed.
After half a month, Yu Bao's eyes were thinner, his face was pale, his lips were purple, he felt that someone was coming, he opened his eyes and found that it was Yi Fan, and a trace of surprise flashed in his cloudy eyes.
"Brother Yi, save me. ”
Yi Fan was stunned, conscious, not like he was haunted by ghosts, and after a closer look, he instantly understood.
Seeing that Yi Fan didn't speak, Yu Baoyan cried: "Brother Yi, am I going to die?"
After speaking, he said to Master Chen: "Dad, I don't want to die." ”
As soon as he said this, Old Man Chen burst into tears, and he also panicked, and stepped forward to grab Yi Fan: "Daochang Yi, please save my son, he is still young." ”
"Master Chen, don't panic, Chen Lei is not haunted by demons, it's just that he is overindulged and his vitality is broken, as long as he is treated properly and recuperates for a few months, he will naturally recover. ”
Yi Fan smiled bitterly, he checked carefully just now, and found that there was no trace of demon invasion on Yu Baoyan's body, and he was getting thinner and weaker, but he was overindulgent, and then he scared himself and scared himself out.
Presumably Lang Zhong also said it, but if he cared, he was chaotic, and Master Chen didn't listen to it.
Everyone was stunned, and Yu Bubble was surprised: "I'm not haunted by ghosts? Great, I'll just say how I have full strength, and I don't look like I'm haunted by ghosts." ”
Yi Fan was speechless, this product is cheap again.
As soon as Master Chen's tears were collected, his face fell, he was angry, he was really embarrassed and thrown dozens of miles away, so in a fit of anger, he picked up the teacup next to him and smashed it.
"Ouch, Daddy, you're going to kill someone. ”
Old Man Chen was so angry that he stepped forward and struck: "Kill someone, I'll kill you, a brute, so that you don't usually study well, fool around outside all day long, and see how I clean you up." ”
Chen Yi hurriedly grabbed it, and the maid next to him persuaded him, and it took a while for Old Man Chen to calm down his anger, and his face was ashamed: "The family is unfortunate, which makes Yi Dao smile when he sees it." ”
Yi Fan waved his hand, said some polite words, and said at the end: "If Master Chen is really good for Brother Chen Lei, in the next half a year, don't let him go out to mess with flowers and grass again, so as not to hurt his vitality again." ”
Master Chen snorted coldly: "If he dares to go out again, see that I don't break his legs." ”
Yu Baoyan wailed, didn't dare to resist, only looked at Yi Fan with resentment, blaming him for being too talkative, otherwise he wouldn't have been grounded for half a year.
Without a woman, how can he live, Yu Bubble only feels that the world is dark.
"Brother Chen Lei, these days, do you often go to Zihualou to see Miss Simeng?"
"Huh, how do you know?"
Yi Fan was silent, interrupted the topic, and asked something else.
This busy work, it was already evening, the lights were on, the lanterns were lit in the courtyard, a few people sat down in the living room, the maid brought tea, and Master Chen spoke first.
"Yi Daochang, I wonder if the yamen has sent you an invitation?"
Yi Fan was stunned for a moment, and even asked about the situation, only then did he learn that Guobei County was haunted by demons, to what extent did it go?
In recent days, although ordinary people only know that many people have died, they do not know that those people have died, let alone the extent of the situation.
As a local clan, the Chen family naturally has the channels and qualifications to know about these things, and they also participate in them.
It turned out that Guobei County had a lot of evil a long time ago, but it was suppressed by the government and concealed the news, but the ultimate paper couldn't contain the fire, and as the demons became more and more unscrupulous, they even killed people in the daytime, and completely lost control of the situation.
What's even more frightening is that on the main road of Guobei County, the businessmen who come and go also encountered strange things and died a lot of people, so some businessmen are willing to walk more and bypass Guobei County, and even some go directly by water, without passing through the territory of Guobei County.
If it goes on for such a long time, Guobei County will sooner or later turn into a ghost, and the local clans are even more panicked, if Guobei County is deserted, the biggest loss is their local gentry.
So many clans found the county order, and the county order was also worried about this matter, if it was not handled properly, it would be a trivial matter for the black yarn hat to fall, and he was afraid that the court would want his head.
As for asking for help from the imperial court, how can we say it, can it be reported that the demons are haunting and killing the living? That will only make Shilin laugh, and the imperial court will think that he is incapable of making excuses, and if it is more serious, it will directly reprimand him for beleading the people.
Since it is not possible to ask for help, you can only solve it yourself, so you can pay for it, and you can help it, Lanruo Temple, as a local temple, is of course the first choice, but unfortunately Lanruo Temple suddenly closed the mountain, which caught everyone off guard.
What makes everyone even more frightened is that the demons began to target the big family, a few days ago, a clan in the north of the city was wiped out overnight, a family of fifty-eight people, chickens and dogs were not left, and they died cleanly.
In order not to panic the people, they could only suppress the news, so they began to invite other mages in the county, whether they were Taoist priests or monks, regardless of whether they were true or not, to be invited over to discuss countermeasures.
As for not receiving the invitation, Yi Fan is not surprised, his reputation is not obvious, he rarely goes down the mountain, and others only know the Lanruo Temple in front of the mountain, where would he have thought that there would be a Taoist temple behind the mountain?
may have heard of the old Taoist, but the old Taoist died for half a year, and he faded out of everyone's field of vision and was no longer remembered.
In the evening, after a rich dinner and a few glasses of good wine, he followed the maid back to the room.
As soon as he returned to the room, Yi Fan's face sank, he took out the evil sword from the package, and checked the 'Little Evil Punishment Talisman', he has really saved a lot these days, and there are more than fifty talismans.
No matter how powerful the demon is, there are so many 'little evil talismans', and they can be piled up to kill it.
Thinking of this, Yi Fan's heart was slightly settled, but he didn't dare to be careless, closed his eyes and recuperated, so that his spirit and spirit could reach perfection.
It's not going to be too peaceful tonight.
