Chapter 072: Looking for the Book Monster
Coming to the view of fortune, Tao Ziyun and Liu Liuga went straight to the main hall, the hall was full of pilgrims, and there were several Taoist priests there to guide the pilgrims to offer incense, but there was no trace of the head of the Fucai Dao.
Tao Ziyun asked one of the Taoist priests, and the Taoist priest replied, "The Taoist chief went to hunt demons for others." ”
"When did he go, and how long will he have to wait to come back?" Tao Ziyun had something on his mind, hoping that the Taoist would come back soon.
The Taoist priest patiently replied to him, "I went yesterday evening, and I haven't come back yet, so I may have encountered a demon that is difficult to catch." ”
"Why don't you take us to the house of the Taoist to catch demons, and we can help him. Tao Ziyun asked the Taoist priest to say.
The Taoist priest looked at Liu Liuga carefully before he said to Tao Ziyun: "Although I have never seen your companion, I know that you and the Lord are friends, so I will take you there." ”
Liu Liuga was overjoyed when he saw this: "This is the best! Brother Tao really has face!"
The Taoist priest then shouted to another Taoist priest in the main hall: "Sit and forget! You are so good that you take care of the Taoist temple, and I and these two donors will go to help the master!"
"Brother Cunsi, go with confidence, I will do my best to take care of it!" replied Zao, who was still guiding the pilgrims in front of the statue.
Tao Ziyun asked the Taoist priest to sit in front of him, and the two of them and a horse led Liu Liuga forward.
The Taoist priest told Tao Ziyun and said: "My surname is Ji, Dao number: Cunsi, my junior brother's surname is Shi just now, Dao number: sit and forget, when you come to Guanli in the future, you will call me Ji Cunsi, call me my junior brother Shi sit and forget, remember?"
"Remembered. Tao Ziyun should inherit the Taoist priest Ji Cunsi, and said to him with a little compliment: "It depends on the situation, you two are the most trusted disciples of the master!"
"Of course! Shi Zao forgot that my junior brother and I entered the Fucai Guan to learn the Tao at the age of three, and it has been sixteen years! At that time, the Fucai Guan had just been built! I was the earliest disciple of the Guan Lord!"
Tao Ziyun did not think about the Taoist priest's thoughts, but praised him: "You are the first son of the concept of fortune, you have a great future, congratulations!"
The road was lonely, Tao Ziyun asked Taoist Cunsi about his growth experience, and Ji Cunsi told Tao Ziyun and Liu Liuga about his past from memory, interesting and uninteresting, so that there was laughter from time to time on the way, and unconsciously, they arrived in Shanyin City.
During this period, the Taoist priest asked the pedestrians on the street for directions several times, and only then did he find the "Liang Mansion" where the Taoist chief of fortune went to catch demons.
I heard that it was the eldest disciple and friend of the Fortune Daoist, so the gatekeeper of the Liang Mansion let them in.
"It's you who came, okay! You came just in time!"
"Fortune Chief, what's so good? I'm scared to death!" Tao Ziyun said to Fortune Governor with a sad face.
"I'm short of manpower here, so of course you're here just in time. The chief of fortune said without changing his original intention.
Tao Ziyun whispered to him in the ear of the chief of fortune and wealth: "Luo Shangke's ghost daughter-in-law has left him, she is looking for the "Book of Music" from him! Because he really doesn't, she has already left! What's worse is that the "Book of Music" is my book, how can I be good?"
"In this way, I remember that you talked to me in the concept of fortune, you are based on the "Book of Music" to cultivate immortals with music, you just told me about it, and did not let me see that book, which shows that you cherish that book. The ghosts and demons are looking for that book, and I think it's a treasure in the fairy world, so you need to keep it safe. Fucai Daoist said softly to Tao Ziyun.
"I also think that the Book of Music is a treasure, it is one of the 'Four Books and Six Classics', it is a classic in the Confucian classics, and now there are only 'Four Books and Five Classics' in the world in addition to the "Book of Music", and in the eyes of readers, "The Book of Music" is also a treasure. The first half of the "Book of Music" is the same scripture as the "Four Books and Five Classics", and the second part is the immortal book of "cultivating immortals with music"! This thick "Book of Music" is a treasure among the readers and the fairy world! You have to help me eradicate the ghosts and demons that covet the "Book of Music", so that I can keep my "Book of Music" well!" Tao Ziyun discussed softly with the chief of fortune.
"Okay, when I get rid of the ghost and demon who is still haunting the Liang Mansion, I will help you get rid of the ghost and demon who covets the Book of Music, so as to prevent future troubles. Fucai Dao said softly but firmly to Tao Ziyun.
"What are you talking about, why is this demon so difficult to deal with!" an old man walked out of the inner house.
"It's Liang Yuan who has gone out!" "Fu Cai Dao Chang got up and greeted the old man who had just come out and said, "We are discussing how to catch the ghosts and demons, this little Taoist priest is my apprentice, these two are my friends, and they are here to help me." ”
"Oh, that's good! you're going to do everything you can to catch the demons for me. I think I have been an official for more than 30 years, and my son died in battle at the border in the early years, and I didn't feel good in my heart, but now that I have returned to my hometown, there are ghosts and demons coming in to make trouble, oh my God! Give me some peace!" Liang shouted frantically.
"What is the situation of the ghosts and demons here?" Liu Liuga interjected.
Liang Yuanwai asked, calmed down his mood, and told them from the beginning: "After I returned to my hometown, there were more than one million books stored in the study, and I went out to play during the day every day, and read in the study at night, so as to enjoy the time and fun of reading back then." Every night after dark, he went into the study to read a book for more than an hour, one day he may have forgotten to blow the candle in the study, the servant who patrols the night saw the figure flickering inside, thinking that I was still reading in it, so he wanted to tell me to rest on time, he had not yet arrived at the door of the study, so he looked inside from the window, and it turned out to be a monster dressed in gray clothes, fangs and claws, and the servant was immediately frightened and fainted next to the window. The next day, when the servant was pointing at me, and from time to time he was privately counting me down on the other servants, and I asked them what they were talking about behind their backs, and a bold servant said that someone had seen me in the form of a monster, and that I was a black-faced monster with fangs and claws. ”
Liang Yuanwai saw that the people who listened to him were not afraid of him, so he continued: "I was furious at that time, caught the servant who originally said that I was a monster, convicted him of spreading rumors, and used family law to beat a hundred boards fiercely. The servant even shouted that he was wronged, and he really saw a monster in the study, even if it wasn't the master or me, or someone else. Anyway, the board has already been beaten, and I don't bother to pay attention to the servant's claim that he is wronged. In the evening, I lit the candles as usual and went in to read, but that day I did not read long before I came out, and called the servant who had been beaten, and led a few sturdy servants with my wounds, and waited with me for the appearance of the demon, and if not, I would cure the servant who said I was a monster. In the candlelit study, there was a terrible sound of grinding teeth, and there were really human figures flashing inside, and I asked the servants to come forward to take a look, and inside the window, a black-faced monster with fangs and claws was looking for books one by one in front of the bookshelf in the study! All of us immediately fainted outside the window. ”
