Chapter 51: Becoming a Great Ambition
"You~ Are you a human or a ghost?"
Not far away, an old man and a young man came out of the col, the old man was over fifty years old, and the child was three or five years old. When the two of them first saw Lu Dongyang and the other three, they were so frightened that their legs and feet were weak, and they almost rolled down the col, but fortunately, the old man grabbed the branch, and the two stabilized themselves.
"Are we human beings or ghosts?Are you blind?Of course we are human~ Where did the ghosts come from in broad daylight?" Zhiqiu Yiye heard this, and he was angry, and it took a lot of strength to eradicate the ghosts here, but he was mistaken for a ghost by the villagers nearby, how could he not be angry.
"Don't be afraid, my senior brother and I are disciples of Duxiu Peak of the Fu Dao Sect, this is an exorcist, we heard that this area is haunted, so we came to eradicate the ghosts, after last night's battle, the ghosts and monsters here have been completely eradicated by the three of us, and they will no longer endanger the villagers here." Lu Dongyang saw that the two of them still had doubts about Zhiqiu Yiye's words, so he explained them in detail.
"What? The ghosts and monsters here are all dead? What you said is true? If it is true, it is really a blessing for me to seal the door village! Thank you three, please accept the little old man to bow on behalf of the entire Fengmen Village. Only then did the old man notice the clothes on the three of Lu Dongyang, although they were different from the robes of the Taoist priest who invited to exorcise the ghosts yesterday, but it could also be seen that the three of them were cultivators. Only then did he believe Lu Dongyang's words, bowed his legs, and knelt down, and the child near him also quickly knelt down in style.
"The old man doesn't have to make such a big gift, it is our job to subdue demons and eliminate demons, please hurry up. Deping hurried to the two and helped them up.
"This ghost plagues the township, I have been closed to the people for a long time, I have few men in the village, but they have specifically harmed men, eleven people have been killed, three can help us eradicate ghosts and demons, what is this kneeling? I just don't know if the three have seen a woman and a yellow-robed Taoist? Last night they summoned the soul of this baby's father, Cheng San'er, and there has been no news until now. "The old man was rickety, skinny, and his weather-beaten face was covered with deep wrinkles. He took the child into his arms and said worriedly.
"I saw it, but I saw it~" Lu Dongyang looked at the child in the old man's arms, his eyes were full of expectation, Chu Chu was pitiful, and finally couldn't bear to say anything about the woman.
"Say whatever you want, I can still carry this old bone. When the old man saw Lu Dongyang talking and spitting out the story, a bad premonition arose.
"The Taoist priest who did it for you yesterday was a charlatan, a man who cheated on eating and drinking, and was finally washed dry by the female ghost and died. Fortunately, we arrived in time and got off the woman. But later, the woman was taken by the ghost king and seriously injured the three of us, so in desperation, I had no choice but to sacrifice the woman. Lu Dongyang apologized and told the two of them about the matter.
"Mother~Mother's death~ I want my mother~"
When the boy heard this, his whole body was stunned, and then tears flowed down his face, and he cried loudly.
"Hey~" The old man sighed and wrapped the child in his arms, which was also full of tears.
"I'm sorry~ It's because we didn't get rid of your mother, and we blame my uncle for not being good. Deping looked at the tearful child and couldn't help but feel sad.
"Hey, we can't blame you, we still have to thank you, if it weren't for your appearance, I don't know how many people would die in the closed door village, but can you tell Xiao Lao'er, where is this child's mother's body? This child is pitiful, the child's father was hooked away by the female ghost, and his mother is ~ again ~ hey~ "The old man is still reasonable, and he knows that Lu Dongyang's people can't blame him, and he can only blame the hateful ghost.
"That," Zhiqiu Yiye pointed at the place where the woman was buried, and said expressionlessly with a slight finger.
"This child was on the body of the ghost king, the strength is too fierce, I have no choice but to cast a spell to break the mountain stone, seal her in the mountain stone, the ghost king attached to the woman, and tried to climb outward, but in the end failed to do so, only one arm was exposed, and was cut off by us. Lu Dongyang guided the old man and the child to the place where the woman was buried.
The old man looked at the mess in the vicinity, and could guess that there must have been a fierce battle here, and looking at the broken arm, the old man and the child immediately recognized that it was the arm of the child's mother. The boy rushed forward, took the severed arm into his arms, and wept bitterly.
"The dead rest in peace, the living are like this, and the mourning is smooth. Let's build a grave for her here, Brother Zhiqiu, and I'll trouble you. Lu Dongyang glanced at Zhiqiu Yiye and sighed.
"Excuse me, you all get out of the way. Heaven and earth are infinite, Qiankun borrows the law, open~"
Zhiqiu Yiye closed his eyes, pinched out his fingers, the ground under his feet suddenly roared, and in a blink of an eye, countless cracks appeared on the ground, and the rocks and soil began to roll towards the woman's burial, and in a moment, a small grave appeared in front of everyone's eyes, only to see that the grave was neat and angular, which was much more perfect than the craftsman's construction. All this suddenly frightened the old and young who had never seen the world, and the eyes that looked at Zhiqiu Yiye were changing, where is this looking at a benefactor, this is obviously an immortal, and he almost didn't worship it.
"Little one, are you willing to learn this spell?" Lu Dongyang asked with a smile as he approached the child.
When the child heard this, he looked at Lu Dongyang with wide eyes, but he just nodded slightly and did not answer.
"What's your name?" Lu Dongyang squatted down and stared at the child.
"Cheng ~ Cheng Dazhi, I~ Can I really learn spells from you?" Cheng Dazhi stared at Lu Dongyang with wide eyes, his small chest rose and fell, and he asked with some suspicion.
"Yes, do you see that uncle's spell just now is powerful, is it good to learn from him?" Lu Dongyang smiled slightly, pointing to Zhiqiu Yiye and said.
"Don't~ Don't, if you want to accept apprentices, you can accept them, I don't have time to teach. Zhiqiu Yiye refused.
"If you don't accept it, I will accept it, Dazhi knelt down and kowtowed and shouted Master, you will be my apprentice in the future." Lu Dongyang stood up and looked down at Cheng Dazhi. Cheng Dazhi hadn't come back to his senses, but he was pushed by the old man, so he quickly knelt down, kowtowed three times in a row, each time it was very real, and when he raised his head, his forehead was already bloody.
"Okay~Okay~ You will be my Lu Dongyang's apprentice in the future, this is your master, you don't have to worry about him, just call him Zhiqiu. Lu Dongyang gently patted Cheng Dazhi's shoulder with a smile on his face.
"Anyway, you have to call me an uncle, Dazhi can call me Uncle Zhiqiu in the future. Zhiqiu Yiye stopped doing it when he heard this, called this master, called that master, and called him by his name!
"Uncle Zhiqiu is good~" Cheng Dazhi is also clever, and he generally calls Uncle Sheng to flatter.
"This uncle is not called in vain, Dazhi, didn't your father be hooked by a female ghost? Let you know that Uncle Qiu will bring back your father's seven spirits. Your father will be fine. The corners of Lu Dongyang's mouth rose, revealing an expression of successful tricks.
"You~" Zhiqiu Yiye looked at Lu Dongyang angrily, but he couldn't say anything, so he could only admit that he was unlucky.
"Dazhi, take my uncle and me back to your house and see your father. Zhiqiu Yiye grabbed Cheng Dazhi's little arm and said.
"My house is in a col over there. Cheng Dazhi and the old man led the way, and Lu Dongyang and the other three followed. Before leaving, Cheng Dazhi did not forget to kowtow a few times in front of the woman's grave.
"Senior brother, we haven't been a teacher yet, why are we recklessly accepting apprentices? Isn't this a misguided disciple?" Deping was very puzzled by Lu Dongyang's ambition to become an apprentice, so he thought that Lu Dongyang was acting recklessly.
