Become a disciple of Taoist Priest Four Eyes

Chapter 81 Past events in the haunted house

…

"Taoist Master Xu!"

Slightly surprised, Huang Yuanjia glanced at the seven handsome boys beside him. Huang Yuanjia looked respectful and bowed to the tall young Taoist standing opposite.

Xu Junming smiled and nodded.

"Jushi Huang is really not disappointed. He has finished the work in less than four days."

Huang Yuanjia waved his hand and signaled the servants who came with him to put the box down.

"The Taoist priest has been very kind to my Huang family, so I don't dare to neglect him." He opened the lid of the box and revealed the yellow gold bars inside.

"The jewelry that the Taoist Master gave to Zaixia has all been sold at the highest price in the market, earning a total of two thousand three thousand two hundred and fifty-two taels of silver. Zaixia made his own decision and exchanged one hundred and fifty taels of gold for the Taoist Master. send over."

"According to what you said, 3,252 taels of silver should be exchanged for 135.5 taels of gold. Why is there so much more here?"

Huang Yuanjia bowed again.

"The Taoist priest took the risk to save the child's soul. After that, he always remembered it for five seconds, so he took it upon himself to give the Taoist priest a round number."

Xu Junming smiled lightly and looked at his expression.

"Jushi Huang is treating others with courtesy, so he must ask for something, right?"

Huang Yuanjia is a typical businessman who pays attention to three in and seven out. He would not do a loss-making business.

Huang Yuanjia Lu smiled awkwardly in front of the opposite eyes, which were as clear as black and white and as deep as an abyss, as if they could penetrate to the bottom of his heart.

"Taoist Master's eyes are as bright as a torch, and his wisdom is as deep as the abyss. If I use this little trick, I can't hide it from your eyes."

As expected of a businessman, his flattery is direct and not offensive to anyone.

"If you have anything to say, Daoist Huang, just say it!"

"Yes!...Taoist Master Rong is endowed with a friend who is also a high-ranking family member in Tanzhou City. He has a house that has been haunted for many years. He has tried many monks and Taoists, but to no avail. A few days ago, I heard about Xiao'er The matter was brought to my head."

"...I couldn't resist, so I came to see the Taoist Master. If the Taoist Master can solve the problem, he is willing to pay a thousand taels of silver to thank the Taoist Master for his kindness!"

Xu Junming nodded.

Naturally, he would not refuse something that could both make money and earn merit, but only if it was within his ability.

"Don't worry about the money. I have to go to your friend's yard first to take a look!"

"Of course that's no problem. Then you...?"

"Nothing happens, let's go now!"

Huang Yuanjia looked happy.

"I'll drive the director there."

Xu Junming nodded and used the space compression technique to compress one hundred and fifty taels of gold into the size of an apricot kernel and put it into a magic bag.

As for smelting, it's not too late to wait until we get back.

After patting the bag, Xu Junming was about to leave when he saw Mao Tou next to him and stopped again.

Turn around.

"Old layman, would you like Maotou to accompany me for a walk this afternoon?"

"Of course it's no problem. I'm just afraid that this kid will be careless and ruin the Taoist priest's affairs." Father Ma said quickly.

"It's just some sweeping things, very simple!"

"Since Taoist Master doesn't mind, let's take him with us. ... Changshan, why don't you come over?"

Mao Tou came over reluctantly. If he had a choice, he would rather be with the little flower he misses so much.

"Follow the Taoist priest, be smart and don't cause trouble!"

"Got it, Grandpa!"

"You brat, let's go!"

Walking out of the house with Maotou looking back three times in one step.

Children are immature, and the novelty of riding in a car for the first time made him quickly forget about his little girlfriend.

Looking at Mao Tou, who was twisting around and looking here and there, Xu Junming's eyes were filled with scrutiny.

The reason why he brought this little guy out was not because he was a virgin for two generations and envied other people's kindergarten romance.

Instead, he deliberately investigated whether Mao Tou had the destiny to practice Taoism. If so, he would recommend it to Uncle Jiu.

Mao Tou, who is filial and filial, and also smart, is definitely several times better than A Xing and Xiao Yue.

If he can achieve something in the future, Jiu Shu Dao Tong will also have a successor, and he will be worthy of the favor he gave him as a gift of the 'Diyang Straw Mat'.

"Maotou, what do you want to do when you grow up?" Xu Junming asked.

"I want to be like Marshal Tang!"

Mao Tou said with longing.

"Shuai Tang?"

Xu Junming had a question mark on his face.

Huang Yuanjia, who was in the co-pilot, smiled and explained: "The Marshal Tang that Brother Ma mentioned should be Tang Zhuxin, the current Governor of Nanhu."

Mao Tou nodded vigorously and said in an envious tone.

"Every time Marshal Tang comes out, he brings more than a hundred guards with box cannons. He shouts in front of him and crowds behind him, which is very majestic. Everyone who sees him will nod and bow. He lives in a high-walled compound and eats delicacies from the mountains and seas. , wearing silk and satin... And I heard that he has an eighteenth-bedroom concubine!"

Seeing that he was distracted and drooling, Xu Junming's face turned as dark as water.

It was in vain that he wanted to help this bastard to become a Taoist. He did not expect that he was so attached to the world of mortals and had no trace of Taoism in his body. His good intentions were simply in vain.

"Look at how useless you are!"

Xu Junming slapped Mao Tou on the back of the head.

"Ouch!"

Covering his head, he glanced sideways and saw that Xu Junming's face was not good-looking, Mao Tou pouted, and did not dare to say anything more.

Xu Junming didn't speak, and the atmosphere in the car became quiet.

Seeing that he was a little angry, Huang Yuanjia was afraid of offending him, so he breathed a little lighter.

The car drove through the streets and alleys, and after about half a quarter of an hour, it stopped outside a large house with red walls and green tiles, a pair of stone lions in front of the house, and a closed vermilion door.

When a group of people got off the bus, the people who had been waiting here hurried over.

As a middleman, Huang Yuanjia naturally had to introduce both parties.

"Steward Zhang, this is Taoist Xu who I mentioned to Mr. Cen before."

The middle-aged man, who was short and fat, with a mustache and shrewd eyes, looked Xu Junming up and down.

Seeing how young he was, there was doubt in his eyes.

Huang Yuanjia, a sophisticated man, said quickly.

"Steward Zhang, although Taoist Xu is young, he is a senior disciple of Maoshan. He has strong magic power and can easily catch ghosts and subjugate demons."

Butler Zhang nodded, took two steps forward, cupped his fists and saluted.

"Next, Zhang Youliang, the steward of the Cen Mansion, has met Daochang Xu!"

Xu Junming, who had long heard the conversation between the two, raised his right palm with an indifferent expression.

"Honorable Master Zhang, Xu Junming, a disciple of Maoshan Nanzong, pays homage to you."

"Daozhang Xu, has Mr. Huang told you about the situation of our Cen Mansion's old courtyard?"

"No!"

Butler Zhang nodded clearly, after thinking about it for a while.

"This matter dates back to a year ago. My master bought a young lady named 'Yanniang' from Chunfang House as his concubine. He loved her very much. Later, this beautiful girl had an affair with the guard in the mansion and became pregnant. "

"...The master was furious and wanted to put her to death. Later, my wife begged for mercy and felt that we should first find out the situation before making a decision. As a result, the beautiful woman jumped into the lake and committed suicide that night, and her body was not recovered."

"...It was nothing at first. Unexpectedly, when Yan Niang was in her seventh year, something weird happened in the house. People often heard crying in the middle of the night. I invited mage and Taoist priests to perform salvation, but there was no result. The next half month One night, Madam's maid Chunxiang suddenly hanged herself on a willow tree by the lake."

At this point, Butler Zhang's tone began to tremble, and a look of fear appeared on his face.

Although a year has passed since the incident, I still can't help but feel fear when I bring it up again.
