After the Master's reinstatement

He slammed the cabinet shut without thinking, he almost forgot to breathe, and chased out anxiously, scaring the old lady who had just entered the hospital.

Yu Yan: "..."

No imagined people came, only the neighbors from the next yard.

The old lady was kind, seeing that the two brothers hadn't come back for a long time, she was afraid that thieves would come in and steal things, so she would come over with her wife to help clean up every day.

The old lady misses the young man who will write her a letter home, plus she is old and confused, doesn't know how to read other people's faces, and keeps asking where your brother is.

Where did he go, Yu Yan also wanted to know.

Even if Shang Yingqiu didn't care about himself, he would always care about his master's legs.

But after leaving, the other party took it seriously and never came back.

If you didn't ask him, naturally, you shouldn't miss him.

The soul-condensing flower is still in his room. It has changed from a small and graceful flower when it was snatched to now that it is difficult to enclose it with both hands. Yu Yan is extremely careful with the flower, cleaning up all the snakes, insects, rats and ants within a five-mile radius every day. Clean, fertilize and trim branches and leaves by myself, for fear that something will happen to the "hostage". The cautiousness makes the disciples worry and panic.

From Nan Zhu's point of view, the boss is fine on the surface, he should eat instead of swearing, he is full of energy, walking, sitting and lying down, including eating, everything is as usual, except that he spends too much time in a daze with flowers every day, everything is right, and it seems that where Neither is right.

As for what was wrong, he couldn't say it out loud, and he didn't dare to ask, not because he was afraid of being scolded, but because he had a hunch that if he asked, it might make the boss even more unhappy.

He hates everything that makes the boss unhappy.

Another hidden guard, Chuan Qiong who ranked third, mentioned that the boss was abnormal recently, showing horror.

"Yesterday the cook put prickly ash in the dish again, but... the palace master didn't react at all after eating it, chewed it up and swallowed it, it's too strange, too weird, too unreasonable!"

"That's right, two days ago, the boss confuses the vine grass and the scorpion grass when refining the medicine for Tangmen, and then he forgot the heat, and almost burned a furnace. I have been with the boss for 13 years, but I have never seen him. Make this mistake."

"That flower, I think there must be something strange." The fourth son Gan Song said what Nan Zhu was thinking: "Didn't you realize that when the boss is facing that flower, something is not right?"

Everyone thought about it and nodded in agreement.

Gan Song: "I don't know the origin of this flower. It blooms so beautifully in winter. It may be possessed by spirits like the snail girl!"

"It's late at night... why don't we talk about something else?"

Nan Zhu will be on night patrol later, so goosebumps arose: "Sometimes it's a ghost, sometimes it's a girl, what nonsense are you talking about?"

Gan Song was very surprised, and said no, didn’t you all hear the story of the snail girl when you were young?

"A long time ago, there was a lonely farmer who picked up an extremely fat snail when he was plowing in the field. He took it home and wanted to cook it...

"Huh? Why do you eat snails? They are so sticky and disgusting."

"Where is it disgusting, the snails are delicious, whether they are stir-fried, braised, or stewed chicken, they are very fresh, you eat less and more strange, short-sighted—"

Gan Song said: "Okay, let's get back to business, let's continue—that man's family is poor and has never married a wife. One day when he came home, he found that there was already cooked rice and delicious fish on the stove. Tightly organized, as if someone has cleaned it every day, the man rushed home early one day, wanting to see which kind-hearted person helped him."

Several young people, including Nan Zhu, couldn't help pricking up their ears, and huddled together around the stove.

"He peeked out of the window, and he was lucky. He just happened to see smoke coming out of the snails in the tank. A young girl came out of the tank and started cleaning, cooking and cooking. The man rushed in to stop the girl. He asked again and again, and the girl admitted frankly that she was originally a ghost in the snail, and now she came to repay her kindness, and she hoped to be with her benefactor forever."

"Heavenly Daughter-in-law, of course the man will not say that he wanted to eat the snails, so he agreed."

"Everyone in the village is envious of a man who can marry such a virtuous and beautiful daughter-in-law. On the night of the wedding, the two of them knelt down three times and kowtowed nine times. A lump... is the thing in the snail, which burrowed into his body like a big worm."

"It turns out that evildoer has ulterior motives. It disguised itself as a snail, not to repay the favor, but to be able to completely take over the body of Li Daitao after invading the human body... But although the evildoer can change various forms, it must swallow people's heads. The man struggled desperately, and during the struggle, the evildoer was firmly restrained by the man, and sneaked into it by accident... Just then, the sky net was not leaking. There is no way to leave, and I will be trapped in a world from now on...the two of you have me, and I have you, and we can no longer separate."

Third child: "...Then, there? Where?"

Nan Zhu: "..."

**

The night was long, but unfortunately it was another sleepless night.

They specialize in martial arts, and these young people can fight and kill well, but they still don't know anything about slaying demons.

Together, several people secretly collected money and went down the mountain to invite Taoist priests.

This small town at the foot of the mountain is as big as a palm, and you can smell farts on the streets, and there are only a few shops on the main street.As the only shop in the town that sells incense, candles and paper money, the owner Huang Daoshi holds multiple jobs. He not only sells coffins, but also destroys demons. He contracted all the affairs of local weddings and funerals. of.

"Are you a few running around? Do you want to recite sutras after death, or buy straw mats for a coffin?"

Nan Zhu explained the purpose of his visit. After hearing this, Taoist Huang learned that there is a monster here, so he swept away his previous lazy posture and counted his fingers.

"Hmm... not good, not good, according to what you said, two of your master's seven souls and six souls have been sucked away by that demon flower."

Nan Zhu was in a hurry, and asked what should I do?This little Taoist is a little ghost, he is not in a hurry, he holds a mahogany sword calmly and calmly, with a squirt of shochu in his mouth, the yellow talisman in his hand will burn violently, and the eyes of several young men are straightened.At first, everyone felt that this small road was very unreliable, but they didn't expect that the real person had some skills without showing his face!

Seeing that the scene was calmed down, little Taoist Huang put away his sword, smiled complacently, and told them solemnly after laughing.

"That's right, it must be that your boss killed too much, was entangled by demons, and was dying. Has he recently turned black, his eyes are dull, his appetite is poor, and he doesn't talk to others much? You guys People in the Jianghu, fighting and killing are the most likely to provoke these dirty things, but don't be afraid, I have an evil spirit talisman here, a piece only costs a hundred taels of silver, you just need to burn it to ashes, add water, pour it into the soil, and it will help you Master breaks the mystery, but—”

This has a profound meaning, but after Nan Zhu questioned it, the Taoist priest barely revealed the secret.

"But this flower demon has practiced for a hundred years, I'm afraid it's not so easy to kill, and it will turn into revenge for the person who gave the talisman paper, but who made you lucky to meet me, Huang, now you only need 660 six taels, and I will give it to you A Nine-Heaven Profound Talisman, this Talisman is the uninherited magic weapon of my patriarch and grandfather, with divine blood on it, it can completely eliminate disasters and reduce power, and suppress all evil spirits..."

Nan Zhu hesitated for a moment, took out the money bag, and drained all the broken silver in it: "No need, just one."

The 100 taels of silver are the savings that several brothers have privately saved for many years, and they can't come up with more money.

This is for the boss to save his life, and the money must come from the right way.

No stealing, no robbing, no cheating.

As for who was going to place the talisman, Nan Zhu took the talisman paper into his arms on the grounds that he paid the most money and could only make decisions by himself, regardless of his brother's obstruction.

"I can eat and drink well and live to this day, is it all thanks to the boss?"

The young people were all silent. They used to belong to the same village. That village was at the foot of Buzhou Mountain. A big earthquake a year almost buried the whole village.

At that time they were catching fish by the river, when the rumble sounded, Nan Zhu thought it was thunder, then the ground trembled, the river was torn apart, the big trees were collapsing, the mountains were shaking, and the ground was ups and downs like dough, The gravel fell one by one, and it rained down like raindrops, almost burying the little kids alive in it.

They called for help, but a fire broke out in the village, and the fire spread rapidly. The burning roof fell to the ground in waves of aftershocks. People in the village ran around screaming, and no one heard their cries for help.

The rocks are intricately piled up to form a dead end, and the only breathing space is a crack, about half the width of a fingernail and the length of an elbow. Nanzhu and the others lie on the crack in turn, like frogs dying in a well .

Gan Song's father used to be a failed scholar, he listened to stories most of the time, and knew that there was a powerful sect on the mountain.

"I said that the adults said that the people inside will fly to the ground and flee to the ground. If we continue to shout, they will definitely hear our plea for help. My father will write a letter, and maybe he has already written to them."

"Really... But my parents said that the people there would kill anyone they saw, and they would capture and eat children who were disobedient, and they would walk around when they saw them. How could they come to rescue us?

Day after day, three of the trapped children were dying, their breathing was weak, and Nan Zhu was about to die. He guarded that gap, maybe there were gods and Buddhas who heard their prayers, that narrow field of vision A pair of people and horses really appeared here.

The leader was in his early twenties, with a white horse and golden saddle, a scarlet robe, and a light-colored golden lin belt around his waist.

Help--

help us-

Please, please look over here——

He wanted to call for help, but his throat was so dry that he couldn't make a sound, so he could only hiss desperately. The distance between the two sides was far away, and the wind was blowing all around. can be ignored.

The young man stopped for a while, and seemed to say something to his subordinates.

"Young master, let's go, this village was hit by an earthquake three days ago, more than half of them died, and those who could escape escaped, how could there be children? Let's go, if we go back late, the palace master will be angry..."

The young man seemed to have listened to the persuasion, looked around, and led the horse away.

Despair spread throughout his body, and he was paralyzed for an unknown amount of time. Suddenly, his head shook violently.

Is it an illusion?No, it wasn't an illusion. The gravel fell one after another, and the rocks pressing on it began to loosen, and a force was pushing the boulder away inch by inch.

Several other children also woke up, and the aftershocks came again. This time, everyone had no strength to panic, until a voice came from above.

"Look, the deity said that there is a child's voice." The triumphant voice belonged to that person just now.

"Come on, give me your hand."

There were more and more light spots on the top, the young man grabbed his arm, as if afraid of breaking him, pulled him out of the darkness little by little.Nan Zhu remembered that he hugged the other party tightly, the eyes that had been killed before came alive, and cried endlessly like opening the gate.

"Elder Qian, Elder Qian!" The young man's face was very hot, wishing to be far away from him: "Hurry up and get him away, this deity has a headache for the child, hurry up!"

Very fierce, but very fierce people are not necessarily bad people.

Nan Zhu cried harder, but not because of fear.

"The young master missed the time to return to the palace in order to save us. He went back and took the old lord's 66 lashes. His skin was torn and his flesh was bruised. He almost died. He doesn't like to tell us. We can't take it for granted——to give the boss today I'm happy to do something, don't argue with me, or I'll be a ghost and I won't let you go!"

In terms of martial arts, Nan Zhu knew that he was not as strong as the third and fourth, so keeping them would definitely help the boss better.

His life is not worth 600 taels of silver.

The eyes of the third and the fourth were red, a group of brothers hugged their heads and sobbed, the scene of a penny forcing the hero to death was so sad, seeing Huang Xiaodao hesitating to speak, he still swallowed back the sentence that if he really bought it, it would be half the price up.

That night when Lun Nanzhu was patrolling the road, he took advantage of the opportunity of taking a bath by the big stream, sneaked to the flowerpot, and dug out the bag of powder.

"Tai Shang Tai Xing... Unstoppable... Exorcising evil... Binding..."

What is it?

Nan Zhu silently recited the formulas taught by Taoists.

However, after all, it was the first time to do this kind of thing without telling the boss. He was nervous and had to forget the words halfway through the reading. , read word for word.

"Yuqing has an order to sue Sanyuan; Cao Zhi of the ten directions, ordered by order, is as urgent as a law... broken!"

Halfway through washing, Yu Yan realized that he had forgotten to bring his bath beans. Yu Yan, who turned back, saw this scene: "..."

Is there something wrong with his subordinates?

The author has something to say: Aww, I always feel very irritable when I write these two days, there seems to be a voice in my mind constantly reminding myself, be careful not to step on the red line, be careful...

Then the imagination accidentally flew crookedly...

I'm sorry for the snail girl and the parasite QAQ

And the snails are really delicious
