In the early morning of the second day, the master and apprentice got up early and set off.After they traveled eastward for a certain distance, they did not continue eastward, but headed south towards a place called Luohe Town.

When Gu Linshan asked the master why he went south, Yimu said: "The master was also entrusted by others to practice for his lady. I heard that there were ghosts haunting the family, which made the family restless. The family asked the master for help. I hope to be able to exorcise demons."

Yimu paused, as if he had thought of something, he suddenly approached Gu Linshan, his eyebrows and beard trembling, and he said: "Apprentice, I heard that the young lady is a girl who is about the same age as you, named Luo Yun Fei, isn’t it popular to give body favors now? Hehe, you said that if you help them as a teacher, why don’t you make a baby kiss for you, how about it, haha.”

Gu Linshan looked at Yimu with a gossip and smirk, very helpless, he made a righteous gesture, and said: "Master, you are a Taoist priest, and I am your apprentice, so naturally I am also a Taoist priest. Taoism follows nature and is boundless. My disciple is all about pursuing the Dao, so how can he get a wife?"

He thought for a while and continued: "Besides, Master, I believe that being able to learn the Tao from an expert like you will definitely benefit the disciples a lot. Master, don't you think so?"

Kazuki rubbed his nose embarrassingly, but he didn't expect to be dug a hole by his apprentice. His apprentice was devoted to Taoism, and even praised you as a master, what can you say.Haha, what a naughty little apprentice, he smiled and said, "Yes, yes, of course, hahaha."

The topic of baby-kissing ended happily, and then the master and apprentice rushed all the way, and finally arrived at Luohe Town at dusk.

Luoshui Town at dusk is filled with the afterglow of the setting sun. There are only a few pedestrians on the street. The place is surrounded by water, and the rivers meet in the city. You can especially see the boatman propping a bamboo stalk across the river.

Luohe Town is a typical southern town, and the shape of the town is completely different from that in the west.Seeing this scene, Gu Linshan realized that he had already traveled so far. Thinking of the distant Muliang Mountain, the dilapidated thatched hut at the foot of the mountain, Zhaoyan and the others, and Ah Shen, he felt a little dazed for a moment. Everything is like a dream.

He thought of Asan, he might still be sleeping somewhere in Muliang Mountain.Perhaps, the eight years for me were just a dream for Ah Can.Thinking about it this way, he felt a little lucky, at least in this way, Ah Shen would not forget him.

"Teacher, we're here."

When Gu Linshan came back to his senses, he realized that he had followed Master for a long time without knowing it.Gu Linshan looked up, and found a big house standing in front of him. The house was located at the edge of the town, and there were few people around here.

"Teacher, go and knock on the door."

Gu Linshan stepped forward as he said, and knocked on the door. After a while, someone gently opened the door.I saw a young man dressed like a servant looking at them through the crack of the door and asked, "Who are you? What are you doing here at Luo's house?"

Seeing his trembling look, Gu Linshan frowned, and said: "This is my master Daoist Yiki. We are entrusted by the Patriarch of the Gu family. I heard that your mansion has been in trouble recently, so we are here to help."

After hearing Gu Linshan's words, the servant invited them in pleasantly and eagerly, and bowed his head again and again: "So it's Daoist Yimu, but the master and the others have been looking forward to you all the time. I hope the two priests will forgive me. Come, please come with me."

Daoist Yimu stroked his beard and said with a smile, "It's all right." Then he followed him and walked in.

Logically speaking, a large family like this should have many servants in the house, but after the two masters and apprentices entered, they found that there were very few people in the house, and the whole house was very dull and depressing.

Kazuki asked: "Why are there so few people in this house?"

The servant's face seemed to be panicked, but maybe it was because of the presence of an expert invited by the master, which gave him a little courage.He sighed, and then whispered: "This Luo residence used to be considered lively, but now it's... well, it's all because of the haunting."

ghost?Gu Linshan recalled how he felt in the tea shop last time. The Luo family was indeed not clean, but he didn't know who was causing the trouble.

Before Kazuki asked when the haunting would start, he heard the servant say: "Master Dao, we are here." After speaking, the servant led them into the house and said, "You two, please wait for a while. Go call your master."

"Okay, you go." Daoist Yimu looked at the leaving figure of the servant, and looked around. He didn't expect this big family in Luoshui Town to fall into such a depression.

"Master, can you see something?" Gu Linshan asked, looking at the master who was drinking tea.

"Damn it." Daoist Yimu picked up the teacup on the table and poured himself a cup of tea with an extremely leisurely gesture.

Gu Linshan choked, shook his head helplessly, and stopped asking further questions.It wasn't that he wasn't curious, it was just that seeing his master's leisurely appearance, he expected that the evil thing wouldn't be able to cause any big disturbances, so he wouldn't be difficult to deal with, and then he would naturally know what was causing the trouble.

When the master and apprentice were looking around, the head of the Luo family hurried in from the door. As soon as he entered the door, he saw Daoist Yimu who was standing up.I saw him wearing an old tattered Taoist robe and a messy beard, which seemed to be impossible to straighten.

When the Patriarch of the Luo family saw that the image of this person was the same as the rumors, he guessed that this person must be some kind of expert.He looked at Daoist Yimu with a mournful expression on his face, stepped forward a few steps and wanted to kneel down to Yimu, crying, "Master Daoist, please save the little girl quickly."

Yimu quickly supported him, and said: "Master Luo, what are you doing, get up quickly. Please explain to me slowly what happened. Don't worry, Pindao will definitely help you."

The Patriarch of the Luo family gradually calmed down after listening to the words of the Taoist priest. He wiped his eyes and said, "Please sit down, Taoist priests, and let me speak to you slowly."

"My real name is Luo Donghe. I lost my wife in my early years. I only have one daughter under my knees. My name is Luo Yunfei. Now I am nine years old. My daughter is smart since she was a child. She is familiar with poetry and books and has a photographic memory. Yes. So I dote on her in every possible way, and Fei'er is also very well-behaved. When she was three years old, a traveling monk passed by here, saying that my Fei'er was born Quaker, and her future status will be extremely noble. But there will be a kalpa before the age of ten, if you pass it, your life will be smooth, if you don't pass it, you will be in danger of death."

"After hearing this, I was naturally terrified. Fortunately, the master felt that Fei'er's life was noble, and he should not have died early, so he left a string of Buddhist beads. He only said that wearing this string of Buddhist beads will make him cross the border safely." robbery."

"Since that's the case, what happened afterwards? Made the beads useless?" Gu Linshan asked.

Luo Donghe sighed slowly and said: "The little Taoist leader is right. Seeing that they have lived in peace for many years, Fei'er will be ten years old in a few months. But, in just two months A few days ago, my little girl saw a girl being bullied on the street. She couldn't bear it, so she took her home and became her maid. Unexpectedly, Fei'er was kind-hearted, but the other party was an ungrateful white-eyed wolf. Then The woman looked at Fei'er carrying that Buddhist bead every day, and thought it must be a treasure worth thousands of gold, so she had evil thoughts and stole it when Fei'er was not paying attention."

Gu Linshan frowned upon hearing this. According to how much the Luo family valued this string of beads, how could the beads be stolen so easily by a little maid?

Luo Donghe shook his head and continued: "The maid's name is Xiaolan. After stealing the Buddhist beads, she was quickly caught by the servants of my mansion. But who knows, when she knew that we were going to send her to the government mansion, She went crazy and tore off the beads, and all the beads fell on the ground. We spent a lot of time looking for them one by one, but finally found that one of the beads was missing, and that one, we did not care about it. , can't find it."

He picked up the teacup and poured a cup of tea with his head upside down, barely restraining his emotions, then he seemed to think of something terrible, his face showed a trace of panic, and he said to Daoist Yimu: "Daoist, we were originally I thought it was okay to be missing a Buddhist bead, but since that day, strange things have been happening in the house. Even though it did not rain tomorrow, there are often puddles of water everywhere in the house. It felt very cold. The little girl was lying on the bed all day long, her body was as cold as ice, and her face was pale. Until one day, I saw a circle of blackened fingerprints on the little girl's neck, and many people in the house also said that there was something wrong in the house. Ghost, I just realized that there might be ghosts behind this matter, so I asked the Taoist priest for help. Nowadays, there are fewer and fewer people in this mansion, and only Xiao He is still here."

Luo Donghe seemed to have aged a lot in an instant, and his face was full of vicissitudes.

Daoist Yimu listened to Luo Donghe's words silently, and then said: "Master Luo, don't worry, Pindao will definitely help with all his strength. I wonder if I can take Pindao to see your daughter now?"

Luo Donghe hurriedly said: "Of course, of course, Taoist priest, please come here."

The master and apprentice followed Luo Donghe and walked forward. At this moment, the sky was completely dark, and there were only a few people in the Luo house.Xiao He was holding the lamp in front of him alone, and in the dark corner, there seemed to be something about to move.

Gu Linshan walked at the back without saying a word, secretly observing the surroundings.This thing is very good at hiding, he and his master couldn't find his hiding place for a while, otherwise they would just take him in, why wait so long.

He looked at the two people in front, Master Luo and Xiao He, as if he wanted to find out something, but these two were indeed human beings, so he looked back and thought to himself.

Suddenly, he felt a chill behind his back, and something lay on his back.He raised his mouth slightly, lowered his eyes, concealed the thoughts in his eyes, and walked forward calmly.

Heh, it seems that this thing treats itself as a persimmon.That's fine, I'm not going to look for you, I'm here by myself.
