Liaozhai Great Sage

"It's not good, this coffin is escorted by ghosts and gods, Tian Qi will suffer now."

The head coffin bearer immediately felt his heart sink when he smelled it.

Sure enough, Tian Qi's hand had just stretched in, and before he had time to grab the piece of gold, he screamed suddenly, and his arm felt a sharp pain in an instant, as if someone had cut it off with a steel knife, and it hurt immediately He retracted and fell backwards, just holding his arm and howling, but there was no wound at all on his arm, nor was it cut off, but he just felt extremely painful.

"Quick, get down on your knees and beg ghosts and gods to forgive you."

Seeing this scene, the leading coffin bearer confirmed his guess even more, greeted hurriedly, and then knelt down with a plop.

The few remaining people turned pale with fright and hurriedly knelt down and begged for mercy.

"Touch~!"

But there was no voice from the surroundings to answer them. They just felt a few gusts of wind blowing from nearby, came to the vicinity of the coffin, and then saw that the coffin lid that had slid down was unintentionally jumped up by itself, and then Quickly closed.

The bullock cart also seemed to be driven by someone, and started to walk, and continued on its way towards the county town.

The remaining coffin bearers looked at each other in blank dismay, not knowing what to do.

Only after the bullock cart had gone far away and there was no movement around, everyone was relieved from the panic just now.

"Now, what should we do now?" Everyone looked at the leader of the coffin bearer.

The dark man sighed: "It's your fate, the ghosts and gods who escorted the coffin didn't punish you, otherwise Tian Qi was not the only one who suffered just now. I should have thought of it a long time ago. It was so peaceful along the way, even the ghosts We didn’t even see a single one of them, it seems that it’s not because of our luck, but because there are ghosts and gods secretly escorting them, and all the little ghosts on the road were scared away.”

"Since the ghosts and gods didn't blame the previous incident, we should quickly follow up and finish this matter. We will worship the gods and pray later, and hold a banquet to calm the anger in the hearts of ghosts and gods."

After finishing speaking, everyone else nodded in agreement.

But when they helped up Tian Qi who was crying in pain, they saw that his arm was intact, but there was a bruise on his arm.

The bruise was like a thin line going around the arm, and under this thin line, the entire arm had lost the ability to move, and even the fingers could not move.

The leading coffin bearer was well-informed and sighed: "This is retribution. Tian Qi was greedy for the money in the coffin, and now he got a knife from a ghost and a god. This arm will be considered useless in the future. I told you a long time ago. There are many taboos in one line of work, which is originally a good thing to accumulate yin and virtue, but it will become a bad thing because of greed, so it has been passed down from generation to generation. Not many coffin bearers can keep their duty, most of them are like Tian Qi was so greedy that he suffered retribution, you must take it seriously in the future."

The other generals who carried the coffin were terrified when they heard the words, and they all kept these words firmly in mind, and never dared to have any thoughts about the things in the coffin in the future.

After all, the living example is here.

Several coffin bearers led Tian Qi to the county town after chasing the ox cart.

And not long after they left, on the road they passed by, the moonlight fell, and a huge tiger shadow appeared here out of thin air. The tiger shadow shook its head, and first looked in the direction of Guobei County. Then he looked in the direction of Lanruo Temple.

Finally, Huying started to move, and disappeared towards Lanruo Temple in a flash.

At this moment, inside Lanruo Temple.

Li Xiuyuan stayed in the same courtyard with Yan Chixia and Xia Houwu, and they all rested in the meditation room.

Rather than resting, it would be better to say waiting for news.

When Li Xiuyuan's Yin soldiers and ghost messengers received the exact news of the tree demon's grandmother, they wiped her out in one fell swoop.

Seeing the night fall, the night is getting darker.

Li Xiuyuan's face was calm, and he stood with his hands behind his back, standing at the door of the Zen room, looking up at the bright moon.

"The moon in Lanruo Temple is hazy no matter when you look at it, as if it is shrouded in a layer of haze, and you can't see it clearly enough." He thought secretly in his heart.

However, Li Xiuyuan knew that the reason for this situation was that Lanruo Temple was very evil.

This evil spirit soared into the sky, condensed and did not disperse, it blocked the sight just now, and even the moonlight was not bright.

Therefore, this seemingly bright moon in the sky is actually not a good sign.

Sometimes the moon doesn't have to be dark and the wind high, but dark clouds are the time for ghosts and evil spirits to come out.

"Hoohoo~!"

A gust of strange wind blew up, and several lanterns in the Zen courtyard were swayed by the blowing, and the candlelight kept shaking, as if it was going to be extinguished at any moment.

But in the end it has not been extinguished.

"Husband~!"

A shy and clear voice sounded out, but Qingmei actually appeared and came in front of her.

Li Xiuyuan immediately smiled and said: "Xiaomei, why don't you go back to the house and catch up with Xiaodie, what are you still doing here?"

"I miss my husband in my body and mind, so I never left Lanruo Temple. Now it's late at night, so I dare to come out to meet my husband." Qingmei said shyly.

She got a title during her lifetime, but she didn't continue this unfinished love affair. After death, she finally repeated it, and she was willing to part immediately.

"Don't worry, I'll be fine, but I don't pay attention to what the tree demon grandma said." Li Xiuyuan said.

Qingmei responded softly; "Your dryad's face changes when you hear your husband's prestige. It can be seen that the tree demon is jealous of your husband. It's just that I want to spend more time with my husband, so that my husband will not be lonely and boring here alone."

"You are very considerate. It is my blessing to marry you home." Li Xiuyuan said with a smile.

"It's a concubine's blessing to be able to renew her relationship with my husband." Qingmei said coquettishly.

While the two were talking, Ning Caichen in the nearby meditation room heard a woman's voice outside, and it was impossible for there to be other women in the temple at such a late hour.

Immediately, he thought it was Nie Xiaoqian who had appeared, and hurriedly ran out of the house, "Xiaoqian, is that you, Xiaoqian?"

Ning Caichen held the ashes urn in his hands, he didn't know where the courage came from, and he didn't shy away from it.

But when he rushed out of the meditation room, he saw a strange woman. This strange woman also had a beautiful face, and her pretty and charming appearance was different from Nie Xiaoqian.

"Li, Mr. Li, this, this woman is..."

"This is my family member, not your Nie Xiaoqian." Li Xiuyuan said.

"My wife?" Ning Caichen opened his eyes and said in surprise, "Mr. Li, is your wife a human or a ghost? Why did she suddenly appear here?"

"If you don't care about Nie Xiaoqian's identity and like a female ghost, can't I have a ghost wife?" Li Xiuyuan said.

Ning Caichen was stunned: "Yes, but Mr. Li, you said during the day that people and ghosts cannot stay together, otherwise it will be bad for everyone."

"Yeah, this is a fact that I can't change, that's why Xiaomei and I are so far apart, I hope you can remember my words, even if you like Nie Xiaoqian, you have to restrain yourself, I won't be by your side every day Remind you." Li Xiuyuan said.

Ning Caichen blushed and said, "Me, Xiaoqian and I, it's okay, we're innocent."

"Innocent?" Li Xiuyuan smiled and said, "I still heard you talking about her during the day. You and Nie Xiaoqian stayed in the room for so long last night, and there were bursts of charming smiles from time to time, and Nie Xiaoqian blamed you Take off her clothes."

"Huh, nonsense, we were just discussing poetry, and we didn't do anything against ethics." Ning Caichen was thin-skinned, blushing at this moment and said: "Mr. Li, you can't insult people's innocence."

"Then tell me why Nie Xiaoqian blamed you for taking off her clothes?"
