Chapter 35

Mo Qingchen didn't express any opinion, took out a piece of silver and threw it to Liu Bo, "Two rooms are up."

Taking the money in a hurry, Liu Bo hurriedly ran to arrange the room, thinking while running, this man is too scary, his blood was frozen to death at the sight just now.I really don't know how the smiling and kind lady is not afraid of being frozen when she is with such an "iceman"?
The small town in the sunset is harmonious and peaceful, there are almost no pedestrians on the road, and the rising smoke from the roofs of every house adds a lot of popularity to the town.Usually at this time, although the town is not lively, it is not so deserted.The reason why such a scene happened today is because the residents of the small town were anxious to go home early for dinner, and in the evening, I went to Mr. Li's house to watch Taoist Qingsong catch ghosts.

The Golden Crow returns to its roost, the Moon Rabbit rises in the east, and time passes slowly as many people wait.The moonlight shines through the sparse trees, casting dots of mottled patches on the town's buildings and roads, adding a bit of nighttime mystery to the town.However, this mystery was soon destroyed. At one o'clock, two o'clock, one group and two groups..., the residents of the small town came out of their homes holding lanterns, walking in groups of two or two in the same direction. go.

"It's human nature to watch the excitement!" Luo Cheng said to Mo Qingchen, "Let's go too."

The two performed lightness kung fu and came to Li's residence in a short while.

"Why didn't you let us in?" At the gate of the Li Mansion, the residents of the small town asked the butler of the Li Mansion dissatisfied.It turned out that the housekeeper of Li's mansion and a group of servants blocked the town residents who were enthusiastically coming to watch the play, preventing them from entering Li's mansion.

"Where is Li's Mansion, how can you enter as you please?" the housekeeper of Li's Mansion said loudly.

"Master Li is no longer an official, why are you still putting on airs?" a big man shouted dissatisfied.

"They're all from the same town. We care about Master Li and Mr. Li, that's why we came here. Normally, I wouldn't come when your Li family invites me." Another bastard-looking person followed suit.

"Yes, yes." The others echoed.

"We want to go in, and we want to see Taoist Qingsong catch the ghost. This way we can rest assured. Otherwise, if Taoist Qingsong fails to catch the ghost, what will happen if the evil ghost becomes angry and makes trouble everywhere, attacking innocent people like us?" The middle-aged man wearing Confucian clothes and looking like a scholar said.

"Yes, it's about the peace of the town and our safety. We have to see the evil spirit captured with our own eyes, and we can't let him escape."

"What a good reason! He can even make up such a righteous reason to watch a show, which shows that he didn't study in vain." Luo Cheng sighed to Mo Qingchen, who remained expressionless.The two people mingled in the crowd and thought they would enter Li's Mansion directly, but unexpectedly they were blocked outside the door.

Seeing the excitement of the crowd, the butler of Li's house began to sweat on his forehead. He and his servants together only had about [-] people, how could they stop thousands of residents?

"Quickly, report the situation here to the master in detail, so that the master can give you an idea." The housekeeper of Li's house ordered a servant who ran fast to go to the inner courtyard to find Master Li.After a while, Master Li came to the gate in person.

"Everyone, please be calm and don't be impatient." As expected of an official, when Master Li spoke, the town residents who had never seen much in the world fell silent.

Master Li looked at the effect he had created with satisfaction, coughed, and said loudly, "I don't let everyone go in to watch Daoist Qingsong catch ghosts. Run away, endangering other people; second, I am afraid that the ghost will be cornered by Daoist Qingsong, and will counterattack and hurt everyone when dying."

Master Li's voice was like a bell, and the reasons were well-founded, all out of caring for everyone, so everyone was calm.

"Besides, my house is not big, and there are only a limited number of pretenders. If you all squeeze in together, don't you flatten Li's house?"

When everyone thought about it, it was indeed the case.Although Li's mansion is the largest mansion in the town, it can't accommodate everyone in the town.

"It's better like this," Master Li suggested, "Everyone choose a few representatives to follow me into the mansion. After the results are obtained, let them explain to everyone in detail tomorrow. How about it?"

Everyone looked at each other, who to choose?They all want to see Daoist Qingsong catching ghosts with their own eyes, so as to show off to others, they are unwilling to choose anyone.

"The time is coming soon, everyone please make a decision quickly." Master Li urged loudly.

So, after a period of chaos and commotion, the residents of the small town elected ten representatives to enter the Li Mansion. A big man, a gangster, a middle-aged scholar, and Liu Bo, the waiter of the Yunlai Inn.

If that ghost reveals something that is not good for him, he will spend more money to silence these ten people.Master Li thought as he walked.

"Didn't it mean that the Li family members were all overworked and too skinny? Why is Mr. Li so energetic?" Luo Cheng was very surprised. Except for the two thick dark circles under his eyes, where did he appear to be mentally exhausted?
"Good stuff, I made it up." Mo Qingchen said concisely.

Luo Cheng nodded. Indeed, the Li family is rich, and there must be no shortage of ginseng and ganoderma. "We will go in too."

Even if they couldn't enter Li's Mansion, the residents of the town didn't leave. Instead, they sat outside Li's Mansion, waiting for the first time to know what happened inside.

The two people sneaked into the Li Mansion quietly from the crowd without leaving a trace.

Li's Mansion is a big mansion with three entrances, the master and young master of the Li family live in the inner courtyard.Luo Cheng and Mo Qingchen didn't disturb anyone, they found a seat on the tallest locust tree in the inner courtyard and sat down, condescendingly, waiting to watch the play.

The Li family is worthy of being the richest man in Diyang Town, and the home's buildings are extremely luxurious, making Luo Cheng wonder if Master Li was a corrupt official when he was an official.

There is a table about one meter long in the yard, on which are commonly used equipment for hunting ghosts, such as joss sticks, yellow paper symbols, black dog blood, and glutinous rice.

"It's the same as what was shown on TV." Luo Cheng muttered in a low voice. Mo Qingchen's ears twitched, but he didn't understand what he heard.

Mr. Li is sitting on a stone bench in the yard. Next to him are a middle-aged woman of about 40 years old and a young woman of about 20 years old. The woman is holding a ten-year-old boy in her arms. The little boy Huddled in the woman's arms, her big black eyes showed fear and curiosity.Standing behind Master Li was a young man with a thin figure, handsome appearance, gentle and elegant appearance, he should be Master Li's nephew surnamed Zhang.

The housekeeper of Li's house brought his family guards two meters away from Master Li, and representatives from the small town gathered together.

"Daoist Qingsong has arrived." Following the announcement from the servant, a Taoist priest wearing an apricot-yellow Taoist robe walked in surrounded by several young Taoist priests wearing blue Taoist robes.
