Heaven's Path

Chapter 23 Ghost Shadow

"Are you just sitting there waiting to die like this, didn't you invite a mage?" Liu Xiaoshan asked with raised eyebrows.

"The place where the town is located is extremely remote, and most of the townspeople don't have much knowledge. How can they know any mages. But yesterday, Aunt Liu next door found a Taoist master who is said to be able to exorcise ghosts and demons. She has already stayed in this shop. He said that the day after tomorrow is an auspicious day for the zodiac, and he plans to open the altar that day to try to catch monsters." Shopkeeper Gao said that his originally sad face seemed a little more relaxed.

"Do you want me and the Taoist priest to help you exorcise ghosts?" Chen Yunsheng asked.

"What the monk said is true. I am worried that the ghost is fierce. If the Taoist master makes a slight mistake and the monster fails to harvest and provokes it, then our town may not be able to escape the evil hands. So I dare to invite you two Let's catch monsters together, so we can gain more confidence." Shopkeeper Gao finally spoke out all the entrustments in his heart.

"Are you afraid of ghosts?" Chen Yunsheng suddenly asked Liu Xiaoshan.

The woman didn't know why he asked herself, hesitated for a moment, and nodded.

"Okay, since I scared my maid, I will naturally kill him." Chen Yunsheng said quite boldly.

Liu Xiaoshan even has the heart to die, it seems that he will never be able to take off the title of servant in this life.What made him even more depressed was that in addition to his gratitude, shopkeeper Gao also praised Chen Yunsheng for caring for his servants, and he was quite a celebrity.

Since it was late tonight, the shopkeeper did not arrange for them to meet the Taoist priest, but prepared a suite for Chen Yunsheng.And free of money for the evening meal.Looking at the big bed in the inner room, Liu Xiaoshan couldn't help frowning slightly.

Chen Yunsheng came to her side, reached out and patted her on the shoulder, and then pointed to the bed.

Liu Xiaoshan subconsciously jumped aside, looking at this handsome young man with vigilance.The woman's natural sense made her frown, and she folded her hands on her chest.

Chen Yunsheng was a little puzzled, back then Xiaoyue would make the bed soft without being told.Although he is used to sleeping on bluestone slabs, since there is a bed, no one would want to sleep on it.Seeing the woman's increasingly nervous expression, he said suspiciously: "Shouldn't the maid make the bed? It was cold that year, and my servant warmed the quilt for me."

What Chen Yunsheng said was very natural, but in Liu Xiaoshan's ears, the taste changed completely.She has already determined that Chen Yunsheng is a dandy, and all the things he practiced in the mountains before are all made up.He still has unreasonable thoughts about a woman with his face, which only shows that this person's taste is extremely bad, and he may be a little perverted.Her face turned green when she thought of the rumors about the abuse of women that she overheard over the years.

The more she thought about it, the more angry she became, thinking that tonight might be destroyed by the devil, Liu Xiaoshan somehow got so much strength, she shouted loudly: "I am not your maid!"

The voice was as sharp as a knife, and it spread far away in the silent night.Looking at the woman with a black face, hands on her chest, chest heaving and unsteady, and a fierce look in her eyes, Chen Yunsheng sighed quietly, "It really is true that clothes are not as good as new, and people are not as good as old." The old here refers to It was Xiaoyue, the close girl from back then.

Chen Yunsheng turned around and walked out of the inner room.There was also a bed in the outer room, but it was much smaller. He quickly spread the bedding and fell asleep.Liu Xiaoshan still maintained that movement for a long time, full of doubts in his heart, which song is it singing?

The shopkeeper sighed in the yard, and said brokenly: "A monk is a monk, and even he does things differently from ordinary people. This woman is probably so happy that she doesn't even remember her identity as a servant. Being a mother? The taste is really unusual!"

The next day, when the sky was bright, Chen Yunsheng woke up early and finished washing.Seeing Liu Xiaoshan's big bloodshot eyes, he couldn't help asking strangely: "Did you not sleep well last night? Is it because you are afraid of ghosts?"

Liu Xiaoshan tossed and turned last night, just worried that Chen Yunsheng would break in suddenly, he was really not sure about this man's mentality.She said angrily, "That's right, it's because I'm worried about the evil spirits that I can't sleep all night."

Chen Yunsheng didn't know what a seductive ghost was, and didn't bother to think about it, so he patted her on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, Xiaoshan, I'll kill that seductive ghost tonight." Seeing the sincerity of what he said, Liu Xiaoshan vomited at him. He stuck out his tongue and made a grimace.

Since Liu Xiaoshan's seizure last night, Chen Yunsheng is no longer addressed as a maid, which made the woman feel much better.The shopkeeper took the two of them to meet the Taoist.Seeing Liu Xiaoshan's red eyes, the shopkeeper covered his mouth and smiled lowly, which made the woman very embarrassed, and it was inconvenient to attack, so she could only hold back her breath and glared at Chen Yunsheng several times.

The shopkeeper came to the door and knocked lightly twice. There was a dull "hum" sound from inside the room, and several people stood in front of the door and waited.After a long time, Chen Yunsheng became a little impatient, and a slightly shrill voice came from inside: "Come in."

The three of them filed into the west wing.The room was spacious and bright, bigger than the suite Chen Yunsheng lived in, and it was probably the best room in the inn.Sitting on a grand teacher's chair was a thin Taoist priest, about forty years old, wearing a khaki Taoist robe, and tied his hair into a bun with a wooden hairpin.

There is not much flesh on the face, which looks thin and thin, but a pair of small yellow eyes are very lively.There is a cluster of inch-long mustaches on the chin, which are yellow and sparse.Behind him stood a pair of little Taoist boys, a boy and a girl, the boy was about ten years old, and the girl was seven or eight years old, and she was beautiful.

Shopkeeper Gao didn't dare to be negligent, he made a bow to the Taoist, and told the reason for his visit.After the Taoist listened, his eyes, which were opened at the beginning, closed at some point, noncommittal to what the shopkeeper Gao said.Shopkeeper Gao felt a little embarrassed, laughed dryly, and asked repeatedly: "Old Immortal, you always tell me whether it's okay or not."

Hearing this, the Taoist opened his eyes and said impatiently: "As long as this person promises not to hinder me from casting spells, I have no problem, but he has to take care of himself. If he is bitten off by a monster I am not responsible for half body and one head."

Shopkeeper Gao's expression was rather awkward. He looked at Chen Yunsheng shyly, feeling a little hot on his face, and said to himself, this old man is too fastidious in his speech. I'll find him a helper. I can't afford to offend this one.

Chen Yunsheng was not angry when he heard the Taoist's disrespectful words.In his world, a knife will not stab him because the other party speaks. If he needs to do it, it is a battle of life and death.It is far safer to leave a body behind than an enemy.

After some bargaining, Chen Yunsheng and the Taoist agreed that at night, the Taoist would set up an altar under an old willow tree at the entrance of the village to drive away the demons, while Chen Yunsheng would stand aside to protect the Taoist.After discussing the matter, Chen Yunsheng and Liu Xiaoshan came out of the Taoist room, followed by the two boys politely.

The boy blinked at Chen Yunsheng, and said with a smile, "Brother Chen, don't take offense. My master has a weird temper. What he said just now offended me so much. Don't be as knowledgeable as him."

Chen Yunsheng responded with a smile and said: "It's easy to say, when you hunt monsters at night, you have to rely on your mentor more." This is not a polite word, in his heart, any power that can help things is worthy of respect of.

"Brother Chen doesn't need to worry about this. Master has rich experience in exorcising ghosts and catching monsters. As long as Brother Chen is careful to protect the Dharma, he will be able to catch this time." He said as he touched his two small fists together, looking full of confidence.

Chen Yunsheng saw that he looked cute, so he asked a little more: "What's your name?"

"My teacher's name is Li Tiezui, my name is He Wangchuan, and my junior sister's name is Fang Minglan." He Wangchuan not only reported his own name, but also his master's, very straightforward.

Hearing the name of the Taoist, Liu Xiaoshan felt amused, and asked, "Could it be that the respected master is doing fortune-telling and eliminating disasters for others? Otherwise, how could he get such an elegant name."

Seeing Liu Xiaoshan laughing, He Wangchuan was not angry, and still said straightforwardly: "Sister Liu's guess is right, my master's main business is divination, and this business of catching demons and exorcising ghosts is originally a side business. But this business makes money quickly. In the future, we plan to Take this as your main business.”

The young Tonger wanted to say something more, but the girl named Fang Minglan felt something was wrong and pulled his sleeve, He Wangchuan blushed and realized that he had talked too much, so he didn't continue.

The four parted at this point, and Chen Yunsheng and Liu Xiaoshan returned to their residences, and began to use the Qi Containing Art to recover their spiritual energy.Along the way, there was no time to meditate to recover, and Chen Yunsheng's spirit energy was only [-]%.After a day of meditation and carrying, he has recovered to his best condition.

When it was close to Zi, there was a slow and fast shifting sound outside the door. The shopkeeper Gao led the way, and Chen Yunsheng, the Taoist and two boys came to the agreed place in the east of the village.Shopkeeper Gao left in a hurry. Before leaving, Chen Yunsheng told him to take good care of Liu Xiaoshan and not to neglect.This exorcism is very likely to be a vicious fight, so Chen Yunsheng left Liu Xiaoshan in the shop.

When he came to a table full of tributes, Li Tiezui took out a yellow talisman from his waist pocket, spewed out a ball of flames to ignite it, and muttered something, not knowing what he was talking about.Holding a shining sword in his right hand, he waved it aimlessly, bringing out gusts of cold wind.

Looking at Li Tiezui's posture, Chen Yunsheng thought to himself, this Taoist really has a lot of skills, at least breathing fireballs is real kung fu, and he really can't light that talisman without the middle stage of Qi training.About half an hour later, there was no movement at the entrance of the village, only two blind-eyed wild dogs barking at the moon.
