Lin Fanghe glanced at him reproachfully, as if he was blaming Jincheng for making his own assertions. He said, "Old man, you don't have to worry, no one will do anything to you." We're just here to investigate the case, check out the traitors, and get rid of the ghosts around the village, so won't you live in peace?"

When the old man heard this, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed, as if he had received a living Bodhisattva: "Oh, old man, if you can drive away the ghosts and save my son, the little old man will be a cow and a horse for you, and he will be willing!"

"What, did they take your son too?" Lin Fanghe dusted off the soil and sat down on a broken stool.

"No, since there was a strange thing in the mountains, I couldn't rest assured, and repeatedly told him not to hunt anymore. The old man looked remorseful, "But this child is young and vigorous, and he is just dis......obedient."

"Old man, are you just this one son?"

"What, Xiao Lao'er gave birth to eight children in his life, and the land was wide and sparse, and in the end only two of them were saved. There is also a daughter who is married to the Kou family outside the mountain. ”

"What's your last name?"

"My surname is Yang, Yang Yonglin. ”

Lin Fanghe thought of the corpse on the threshing floor in front of the village, and his chest was broken, and his death was miserable. I felt strange in my heart, so I asked: "Old man Yang, let me ask, what happened to the dead man in front of the village, and why did no one collect the burial?"

Yang Laohan was taken aback when he heard this, and said in a trembling voice, "How do you know?"

"Tell me what you know, and then listen to me explain it slowly. ”

"That's a Taoist priest from Qingzhou. Yang Laohan settled down and began to say: "Since there are monsters in the mountains, captive the population, and harass the villagers, every household in this village has heard of the change of style. There are no more people who pick mushrooms and dig herbs, and those who go up the mountains to hunt do not dare to go out of the house. Alas, the fate is saved, but the livelihood cannot be maintained, sitting on the empty mountain, the family has no rice and grain, not to mention our small family, even the rich man Dadong can't stand it...... Everyone gathered together, pooled together three or twenty taels of silver, and sent a young man to the outside of the mountain to invite a mage to catch ghosts......"

"This Taoist priest is here to catch ghosts?"

"Hmm. ”

"Did he catch it?"

"Don't mention it, it's scared to death. Yang Laohan had palpitations.

Lin Fanghe shook his hand and comforted: "Don't be afraid, keep talking." ”

This Taoist said that he had studied in Laoshan Mountain, and was proficient in the Five Thunder Heavenly Heart Rectification Method, and the True Mantra of Forbidden Demons. The thirty-six roads of Tiangang, the seventy-two roads of the earth, the stars of the seventy-second road, the six dings and six jia, and the five night wandering gods, are all at their disposal at any time!

The old man sighed while saying: "Everyone brought out some wine, meat and vegetables to entertain the mage, he was full of wine and food, came to the threshing floor, lined up the table, and released arrows and paper charms, and recited words in his mouth. Then step on the sky, step on the Beidou, the long sword points to the sky, and in an instant, the demon wind rises everywhere......"

Tang Yu blinked in fright: "So powerful, it seems that the Taoist priest is really powerful?"

"Why, the wind is blowing by the goblins. ”

Xiang Jincheng's eyes widened, clenched his fists, and said loudly: "Our Ming Dynasty has the beginning of the world, and the four seas are leveled, but I don't believe it!"

"Many people were on the spot, and after the wind passed, they saw the monster flying down from the sky, with a huge mouth and fangs, white hair, and red eyes, and they threw the Taoist priest who drove away ghosts and monsters to the ground......"

Lin Fanghe frowned tightly and asked, "What happened later?"

Then everyone was frightened and fled in all directions, each running home and chaining the door to him. ”

"What about the Daoist?"

"Who knows, which one will dare to go back and see. Yang Laohan covered his face with his hands, and his voice was choked. I heard heart-rending screams from the threshing floor, and they kept going on and on, one louder than the other. The roar made people's hearts tremble. I don't know if the Taoist priest cast a spell to subdue the monster, or if the goblin devoured the Taoist instead?"

"People are kind enough to collect demons for you, you are good, you scatter in a hurry, and you don't care about the life or death of others!" Xiang Jincheng slapped the table and accused angrily.

"Can we be blamed for this?"

Yang Laohan let go of his hand, pitiful, "The Taoist priest is good at using a spell, using it slowly, and he can also pinch the trick and recite the spell, and mobilize the heavenly soldiers and generals." We are ordinary people, **mortals, what use can we do if we go? Besides, when he collected the cashier, he said it really well, and his words were conclusive, and he was ......sure of it!

Tang Yu sneered: "This god stick deserves it." Fool the village, covet gold and silver, otherwise you will not throw corpses into the wilderness. ”

"Is it really that Taoist priest who died?"

"Disemboweled, and the intestines flowed all over the ground. ”

"My Mom ......"

"Okay, don't fight. Lin Fanghe stopped the discussion, sighed, and asked, "Old man Yang, what are you going to do next?"

"What can I do, what else can I do? ”

"There's no other way. ”

"A Taoist priest with such a profound spell can't stop him, who else can we count on?"

Lin Fanghe smiled lightly, revealing a disdainful look: "A few clowns, how can they make waves?" Old man, if I can catch the ghosts for you, clear the demonic atmosphere, and return the villagers to a peaceful life?

Yang Laohan was stunned, and took two steps back: "Are you okay?" My lord, I see that your body is not as strong as a Taoist priest. He has such a big ability, and he has never done a goblin, so don't you send it to the tiger's mouth yourself?"

"Real people don't show their faces. Let me tell you, I can also spell, I am good at catching ghosts and collecting demons, and I also learned the 'Zhengyi' magic method from Zhang Tianshi of the Qing Palace on Longhu Mountain, Jiangxi. Lin Fanghe stood up, patted Yang Laohan on the shoulder, and said in an unusually calm tone: "Clean up these few little demons who are shallow and pretentious, and don't follow their words." ”

"However, the last time we invited that Qingzhou Taoist priest, we have already poured out our pockets, and now we have no money to honor you. Yang Laohan's eyes dodged, and the conversation was half spit and half swallowed.

Lin Fanghe nodded solemnly, with a serious attitude: "You guys can relax, I don't charge a penny, I completely fulfill my obligations, and catch demons for free." ”

"Really?"

"Why am I lying to you?"

"Thank goodness. Old man Yang clasped his hands together and said Mito, "With the boss coming forward, the official authority is prominent, the skills are high, and it is naturally easy to subdue the mountain demon." Now everyone finally has hope and can be safe......"

As he spoke, he lifted his crutches and limped towards the door: "You sit down first, and I'll hurry up and inform everyone, so that they can be happy too!"

Seeing the old man going out, Tang Yu turned around and faced Lin Fanghe, with a puzzled expression: "My lord, can you really catch ghosts and monsters?"

"Where there are demons, it's not people who are doing trouble. Lin Fanghe disagreed.

"Are people doing weird?" Xiang Jincheng was puzzled: "Didn't that old man Yang just say it, many of them obviously saw goblins descending from the sky......
