System: The Path of a Mortal Being Stronger Through Being a Mother
Chapter 89 My Mother is a Taoist Priest Part 25
Lin Miao and his companions entered the capital.
The imperial examination was approaching and all the inns were fully booked. Lin Miao and his companions looked for several inns but couldn't find a place to stay, so they were very worried.
Lin Miao thought, come on, buy a house!
The few of them had lunch first and then went to the largest pawnshop in Kyoto. This pawnshop did a lot of business, including buying and selling human beings, reselling real estate, shops, and land, etc.
When the broker saw the clothes of several people, he guessed that they were candidates from other places who came to take the imperial examination, and he was not interested in them.
The profit margin in this house rental business is too small, and their clothes look ordinary, so it is estimated that they may not be able to make business.
Lin Miao said that she wanted to buy a house and was eager to move in. She only wanted a good location, no matter how expensive or cheap it was.
The broker looked at the Taoist woman and really wanted to scold her: You are so arrogant and don't care about the rich and the poor. Do you think this Kyoto is your remote mountain village?
But since he was a guest, he still smiled and said, "Please come in, Taoist nun. I have a few yards to sell, I wonder if you can take them."
Lin Miao: "Okay, I'll pick a suitable one for you if you can move in right away."
Wang Yaren provided 5 houses.
Lin Miao selected three places with good locations and said she would go and take a look.
Wang Yashang saw that she really wanted to buy it, and he became excited. He immediately followed them on the mule to look around.
Lin Miao finally chose a house with the best location and the largest yard.
Wang Yaren thought about it again and again, although he was tempted by the high agency fees.
But he still told the truth: "Look, everyone, this place has the best location, the largest yard, but the price is the cheapest. Haven't you ever wondered why? The people in Beijing are not stupid."
Lin Miao smiled softly and said, "You are a very honest person. I know it's just a ghost, what are you afraid of? Don't you see what I do? I am a ghost catcher. I am a professional."
Wang Yaren felt a little toothache: "I say, Taoist nun, this is true... This courtyard is famous in Kyoto, and it can't be solved by a few packets of poison from you Taoist nuns. Don't be greedy and disregard your own life."
"If you ask me, you should consider the first yard we saw. Although the location is a bit remote, it is clean after all."
Lin Miao curled her lips slightly: "In my opinion, humans are cleaner than ghosts."
"The yard you mentioned may not be clean. Let's take this one. Find the owner and sign the contract and get the deed immediately."
The broker's heart skipped a beat. There are some secrets that those in this line of work must know.
This Taoist woman seems to have some skills.
Although Zhang Jinyan, Bai Ya and others knew Lin Miao's abilities, they were still a little unsure.
Zhang Jinyan pulled Lin Miao's sleeve.
Lin Miao glanced at him, and he shut up and followed behind her obediently.
The transaction was completed quickly and cost 3000 taels of silver.
Compared to other houses, it is indeed cheap. Normally, a house in such a location and with such a large yard in Kyoto would cost at least 5000 taels, and there is no guarantee that anyone would buy it.
After completing the formalities, Lin Miao asked Zhang Jinyan to take Bai Ya and ride a mule cart to buy some urgent necessities.
The mule cart driver was already familiar with the horse team owner. He had been following Lin Miao during his time in Kyoto, and would follow him back to the capital next time.
Lin Miao walked into the new house.
In fact, this house was built with great care, and it can be seen that the owner also wants to live here himself.
There are more than a dozen rooms, divided into two parts, front and back, with a small garden and a well at the back, making it perfect for a family to live in.
Something shady must have happened to make them quit here.
Lin Miao walked inside. It was a desolate place as no one took care of it.
Lin Miao strengthened his spiritual power and shouted, "Come out! Don't play tricks on me! I'll beat you to pieces!"
It is almost evening now, and it is generally not the time for ghosts to come out.
This house was filled with ghostly aura. When Lin Miao shouted with his spiritual power, he saw the yin energy swirling, as if something was angry.
A green-faced male ghost slowly rose from the main house.
He roared with a bloodthirsty expression: "Where did you come from, female Taoist priest, to disturb my peace? Hehe, you can stay and be my ghost wife."
Lin Miao: Nowadays, ghosts have started teasing Taoist priests?
How can an old woman like this?
She scolded him, "You evil ghost, you have committed too many sins and have taken too many lives. Why don't you die quickly?"
She took out her peach wood sword.
The green-faced male ghost was surprised to see her take out a sword out of thin air.
However, ghosts have also heard about some stories about monks.
Legend has it that a powerful cultivator can use specific spirit stones to create a meson space through space arrays.
However, the spiritual energy in this world is low, and it is unlikely that a powerful person will appear.
Maybe this female Taoist priest was just lucky and found a treasure.
It laughed and said, "It seems that you are a female Taoist priest with great skills. This is rare in the world. It just so happens that I don't mind your age. If you follow me, there will be countless ghosts for you to practice with, which will greatly increase your power. In this world of the living, the spiritual power is low. How many years can you live?"
Lin Miao was too lazy to listen to its nonsense, so she gathered her spiritual power in her hands and attacked it through the air.
The ghost was hit on the face, making a crackling sound.
It's not very harmful, it's very insulting.
Lin Miao cursed: "You evil creature, you don't mind my age, but I mind your ugliness. Shut up and get ready to die."
Unexpectedly, this unintentional sentence touched the nerves of the ghost.
I only heard it laughing miserably and strangely: "Ahhh, you all despise me for being ugly, and you all don't like me. Slut, I will kill you all, so that you can find another gigolo, and so that you can plot against me with others. This is my home, and you actually live in my house, ahhh, I will kill you..."
Lin Miao was confused: What the hell is this? Is he crazy? But she didn't dare to take it lightly.
This ghost was stronger than any she had encountered before.
It devoured more ghosts and started killing. Its ghostly aura increased greatly, and its eyes glowed red, making it obvious that it had become an evil ghost.
Lin Miao pierced her fingertips, and after the peach sword was stained with blood, a faint light appeared.
"This ghost hunting, apart from anything else, is very laborious."
Lin Miao thought with a smile on her face.
A man and a ghost fought together.
Compared with the evil spirit's ghost energy, Lin Miao's spiritual power is still slightly insufficient, after all, she has been practicing for a short time.
Although there is the help of the golden finger, this practice also requires a little bit of accumulation.
Fortunately, she has extraordinary strength and is as fast as the wind.
The ghost fought her to a draw.
The evil ghost ran out of patience and began to feel more resentful, attracting more little ghosts. It devoured the little ghosts while increasing its own strength.
When Lin Miao saw this, she felt something was wrong and her spiritual power began to become unstable.
She thought about it, and pinched a thunder talisman in her palm, and threw it at the evil ghost as she passed by.
The evil ghost only felt a burning sensation on his body, and with a loud bang, his shoulder and half of his head were blown off.
The ghostly aura faded instantly.
The evil spirit reappeared, still intact, but the red light in its eyes had disappeared.
Lin Miao took a look and thought it was okay. She threw two more thunder talismans at it, feeling very sad. She ended up drawing just a few of them.
The evil ghost howled in anger.
After practicing for so long, the Yin energy that I had absorbed with great difficulty was destroyed by this woman.
If I had known this earlier, why would I have flirted with her, an old woman?
However, if the ghost can merge with a cultivator, its abilities will increase greatly, and it will be even better if it is eaten.
His teasing was fake, he really wanted to eat Lin Miao.
Although Lin Miao is not young, she has a really good appearance.
Lin Miao had no idea what the green-faced male ghost was thinking. When she saw it trying to run away, was it okay?
If we let it go, this guy will continue to harm people. Once a ghost starts killing, it can no longer be kept.
They have lost the qualifications to be reincarnated and can only go down this path till the end.
She rushed towards the evil spirit while chanting the soul-binding spell.
The green-faced male ghost wanted to run, but he was not as fast as Lin Miao. His soul was bound, so he struggled desperately.
Lin Miao put spiritual power into her hands and punched it repeatedly.
The ghost was beaten smaller and smaller, and its ghost energy dissipated, turning into an ugly man.
Lin Miao: Really,... so ugly that it enrages heaven and man.
When the man saw Lin Miao's expression, he knew that she was making fun of himself for being ugly.
He was so angry that he cursed in his heart: They are all superficial women, they only know how to look at faces!
It whimpered and cried, "Why, why do you all dislike my ugliness? I don't want to be ugly."
Lin Miao:...What should I do? It's so pitiful.
The ghost continued to cry: "Xiao Qian refused to marry me just because she disliked my ugliness and insisted on marrying my half-brother!"
"I wanted to kill them all, all of them...but that adulterous couple killed me first. My death was so unjust."
Lin Miao said: "Were you killed by your half-brother and his wife?"
The green-faced ghost said: "They killed me and said that I left my hometown to seek immortals..."
Lin Miao: "Then what about the life you have?"
