I'm catching monsters in Liaozhai

Tianwang Mountain?

I saw the female ghost going away.

Xu Lang was suspicious.

Then his expression suddenly brightened.

Isn't the appearance of that female ghost the same as one of the statues in the Temple of the Heavenly King?

"I didn't expect it to be related to the Tianwang Temple. Then why can't I see it during the day?"

Xu Lang was surprised.

But there was no pause at all.

really.

He followed closely behind him and saw the female ghost entering the Temple of the Heavenly King.

Xu Lang held a sword in one hand and a talisman in the other, and carefully walked into the Tianwang Temple.

There is still a lingering ghostly energy in front of me.

However, Xu Lang's eyes were fixed on the short and fat statue on the left.

Although he didn't know what method the female ghost used to hide her figure, he was certain that the other party was inside the statue.

So he said: "I know you are hiding in the statue. You'd better show up by yourself. It would be bad if I did it myself."

A good while.

A figure floated out of the statue.

It was the female ghost.

She looked at Xu Lang, who was holding a yellow talisman, with a flash of vigilance in her eyes.

"Stare at me?"

"boom--!"

Xu Lang directly threw out a thunder talisman, blowing the female ghost away, with white smoke rising all over her body.

"Ahhh-!"

The female ghost fell in the corner, looking at Xu Lang innocently with her big eyes open.

"Ah ah ah..."

"Mad, you're still glaring at me, looking for a beating!"

Without any explanation, Xu Lang threw out another thunder talisman.

high speed.

The female ghost didn't even have a chance to get up before she was smashed against the wall.

The solid figure swayed for a while.

"Can you speak? Speak in human language!"

"Ah ah ah..."

"Still following me..."

Xu Lang held a thunder talisman in his hand and was about to throw it out. At this moment, the female ghost was so frightened that she fell to her knees with a thud and pointed at her open mouth with one hand.

"..."

Xu Lang saw it clearly.

This ghost...has no tongue.

"Ah, it turns out you are mute!"

Xu Lang looked at the big dark and fat face and the big watery eyes of the other party, and asked without any embarrassment: "Where is your tongue?"

"Ah ah ah..."

The female ghost kept shaking her head.

Ah, ah, I don’t know what you are talking about. Xu Lang asked, “Can you write?”

The female ghost nodded.

Xu Lang broke off a dead branch nearby and threw it to her.

Pointing to the thick sand on the ground, he said, "I said, you...write."

The female ghost nodded and picked up the dead branches on the ground.

Xu Lang asked: "Why did you want to harm Li Chengjun?"

The female ghost wrote: "I just want to teach him a lesson."

Xu Lang asked: "Why?"

The female ghost wrote: "His cousin tore off my tongue?"

Xu Lang asked: "Since it was his cousin who ripped off your tongue, why did you teach Li Chengjun a lesson? Go find his cousin."

The female ghost wrote: "My cultivation is too weak. His cousin has the aura of a saint and I can't get close to him."

?

The spirit of a sage?

What is this again?

This was the first time Xu Lang heard about it.

Seeing the doubts on Xu Lang's face, the female ghost said: "A person with the spirit of a sage is destined to be extraordinary. In the future, he will be an upright official or a big shot, and his future prospects are limitless."

Xu Lang asked: "What kind of ghost are you? Why do you live in this statue, and why can you hide your own ghost energy?"

The space on the ground was limited, so the female ghost erased the handwriting and continued to write: "I am a ghost, but I am not actually a ghost because I am not a human being.

I was born with a special spiritual body due to people's worship, so after entering the statue, I can completely hide my own aura. "

oh?

When worshiped by people, the statues in the temple can produce spiritual bodies. Is this what people often call "spiritual manifestations"?

No wonder some people say.

The spiders in the Monk Temple will become spirits if they listen to Buddhist scriptures and receive enough incense.

It turns out that this is really the case.

Xu Lang asked: "Since you are a spirit worshiped by humans, you can't blame the innocent Li Chengjun for missing a tongue, right?"

The female ghost wrote: "I didn't kill him, I just taught him a lesson. If it weren't for him, why would I be speechless and unable to speak. Also, this is just one of the reasons why I taught him a lesson." "

Xu Lang asked: "Then there is another reason?"

The female ghost wrote: "Another reason is that the reason why this temple is abandoned is because of Li Chengjun's grandfather. He built a new temple in the village, worshiped a statue of the Master, and then completely abandoned us. "

Xu Lang said: "Then you can't blame others? If they worship you and you don't get what they ask for, then they will definitely change the object of worship."

The female ghost was silent.

It seemed that Xu Lang was right.

Xu Lang asked: "Why does your statue produce spiritual bodies, but the other two statues do not?"

The female ghost wrote: "I don't know."

"Oh, I have another question. You said you can sense the aura of the saints. Can you help me see if I have the aura of the saints in my body?"

Xu Lang finished speaking.

Looking at her expectantly.

The female ghost wrote: "I can't tell."

"If you can't tell, then you don't have it?"

Xu Lang asked.

The female ghost nodded.

After getting this answer, Xu Lang was still a little disappointed.

Why is he also a time traveler?

"Thousands of miles" traveled across the country.

Why don't you have the aura of a sage? This is too sorry for your status as a time traveler.

Xu Lang asked: "Your tongue is broken, is there any way to recover?"

A strange look flashed in the female ghost's eyes, and she wrote: "Yes, but it will be more troublesome. Can you help me? I will thank you very much."

"I can help you as long as it doesn't violate my principles." Xu Lang said.

The female ghost wrote: "Thank you. You need to find my severed tongue first. After it is reattached, the Li family will worship me for three years so that I can speak."

"The Li family should agree to this."

Xu Lang said, "Then why didn't you tell them directly before? Oh, by the way, forget that you can't speak, but you can also write it."

The female ghost shook her head and wrote: "They are all ordinary people and will not believe what I say. They must think that I am a ghost. They can only rest assured if they find a way to get rid of me."

If I tell them, they will destroy my statue, and then I will never be able to practice again. Now I still need the statue to maintain. "

Oh, so it is.

"Chong--!"

Xu Lang suddenly swung his sword at the female ghost.

No sign.

The female ghost's round eyes opened even wider. She was innocent yet angry. She was very fast and quickly moved aside.

But still too late.

Sword falls.

An arm fell to the ground.

Then quickly dissipated.

The female ghost's dark, fat face was horribly distorted: "You, you, you want to kill me?"
