Taoist temple that will cross

Chapter 427 Xia Dongqing

A few minutes later, in the Taoist temple.

Cao Yi met Zhao Li.

He was wearing a black sleeveless windbreaker, with a soul-killing gun pinned to his leg, and was extremely thin.

"Daozhang, can you help me see the elixir in this bottle?"

Zhao Li took out a small white porcelain bottle from the handbag he was carrying, with hope in his eyes.

Cao Yi reached out to take it, opened the plug, and a gust of cold wind rushed towards his face.It's like there's a ghost inside.

With a thought, the elixir inside floated out.

This is a pale white pill, reminiscent of the pale face of a zombie, and the gray gas surrounding the pill is mixed with the power of soul and resentment, making it even more uncomfortable.

"Where did it come from?"

Cao Yi looked at Zhao Li.

"The ghost elixir I asked someone to refine is said to be able to give birth to a new soul to those who have lost their souls."

Zhao Li explained.

Cao Yi remembered the origin of this thing as soon as he recalled it. In the later plot, there is a soul ferryman named Murong who helps Zhao Li to make alchemy and is wanted by Hades.

Later, Zhao Li and Jiutian Xuannu joined forces to make Murong escape by feigning death.

"You ghost pill?"

Cao Yi returned his gaze to the pill, frowning slightly.

"how?"

Zhao Li, who didn't really believe in this ghost pill, saw Cao Yi, a professional, frown, and his heart suddenly sank.

"How long have you been eating?"

Cao Yi asked.

"hundreds of years"

Zhao Li replied.

"However, because the ghosts needed for alchemy are difficult to get together, the number of times to eat is very small, and there are only a few times in total."

He continued.

"is that useful?"

Cao Yi asked again.

Zhao Li's expression became very strange, "I can't tell. Every time after taking the ghost pill, I always feel that it is close, but it is always a little bit worse."

"Don't take this pill"

Cao Yi said.

Zhao Li took a deep look at Cao Yi and nodded, "Listen to you."

"The elixir that Pindao told you about last time needs something more."

Cao Yi said.

"what?"

Zhao Li asked eagerly.

"I need a soul." Cao Yi paused, and continued: "It must be the kind of soul that is extremely sinful and has a certain climate."

"Living soul or dead soul?"

Zhao Li asked.

"Live soul is better"

Cao Yi replied.

"Heinous crimes, and a soul with a certain climate"

Zhao Li was pacing and chewing on these few words.

Gradually, his brows were deeply frowned, such existences he knew were not easy to mess with.

Well, to be precise, either the cultivation base is strong, or there is a big backer.Easy, not to be provoked.

"Isn't it okay to be ordinary? There are also many ordinary people who have been doing evil all their lives?"

he said subconsciously.

"It must be a soul with a heinous crime and a certain climate"

Cao Yi said firmly.

"Besides, ordinary people, aren't you afraid of being discovered by Hades?"

Then he said another sentence.

Zhao Li was silent for a while, then nodded in agreement.

"Take Pindao to your soul station, Pindao has a hunch that you will find out tonight"

Cao Yi said.

"Soul station?" Zhao Li was taken aback for a moment, then suddenly said: "You are talking about convenience store No. 444."

Cao Yi hummed.

……

In a district of Suzhou, in front of convenience store No. 444.

Cao Yi's eyes flickered with fire, and the convenience store in front of him was distorted.

It turned into a huge city gate as black as ink, with a plaque hanging on it, with two big bloody characters written on it - the gate of ghosts, with ghost energy gushing out from it.

Unsurprisingly, the 444 Convenience Store was just a front.The passage to the underworld is what it really is.

No wonder there are always ghosts gathering here in the original plot.

"This ghost gate is an extension of the ghost gate, like a branch of a large mountain range."

Zhao Li explained.

"The waiter inside looks a little familiar, as if he has seen it in the dog-beating stick."

Xiaotian who came with him spoke.

"Stop mentioning the dog-beating stick"

Zhao Li stared.

The second girl inside caused too much psychological shadow on him, and now he can't listen to the words "beating a dog stick" at all.

Xiaotian curled his lips and said nothing.

"Master please"

Zhao Li leads the way.

Cao Yi and Xiao Tian followed.

Entering the ghost gate, or convenience store No. 444, the first thing you see is Xia Dongqing, the night shift attendant behind the cashier, dozing off.

Zhao Li, who was walking in front, quickly walked to the cashier counter in three steps, stretched out his big hand, and slapped the cashier counter.

Xia Dongqing stood up suddenly.

"Sleeping during working hours, believe it or not, I will deduct your salary?"

Zhao Li pretended to be out of breath.

Xia Dongqing, who was skinny and about to lose her appearance, was quite nervous at first, but when she heard the words deduction of wages, she said anxiously: "Deducted again, you will almost deduct all my wages."

"Sleeping during working hours, shouldn't it be deducted?"

Zhao Li sneered.

"There are no guests, what's wrong with me dozing off? Why are you so impersonal?"

Xia Dongqing was aggrieved and angry.

"I'm not human, what kind of human touch do I want?"

Zhao official sneered.

Xia Dongqing was so choked that she couldn't speak.

"cough cough"

Cao Yi coughed twice.

Zhao Li turned his head, and in an instant, his face changed from that of a widow to that of a bustard: "Master, please come inside?"

"Taoist priest?"

Only then did he notice Cao Yi's Xia Dongqing, with a look of surprise on his face.

Cao Yi smiled at Xia Dongqing.

Xia Dongqing also smiled at Cao Yi.

Cao Yi followed Zhao Li and walked a few steps towards the door of the warehouse, when he suddenly heard the grunting of hungry people.

Turning her head, she saw Xia Dongqing clutching her stomach.

"Are you hungry?"

Cao Yi asked.

“I only had one meal today”

Xia Dongqing looked embarrassed.

A college student who is so messed up that he can't even afford to eat.

He was ashamed himself.

"You can eat whatever you want here, and it will be on my account."

Cao Yi said.

After watching this drama, he was very aware of Xia Dongqing's situation.

Because of having a pair of dark eyes, he can often come into contact with ghosts.

Ghosts are ominous things, integrating poverty, sorrow, decline, disaster, shame, misery, mildew, pain, illness and death... 18 kinds of disasters in one body.

Let alone looking for a job, Xia Dongqing should be thankful to the heavens if she doesn't stop walking on the street.

Xia Dongqing was overjoyed at first, and then waved her hand to refuse: "No, no, I've only met you for the first time, how can I let you invite me."

Still a man of principle.

Cao Yi didn't force himself, smiled and entered the warehouse.

Well, the warehouse is certainly not a real warehouse.

It is an antique courtyard, a stone table is placed in the center, and two jujube trees are miraculously planted on both sides.

"Master, please sit down"

Zhao Li raised his hand.

Cao Yi walked over and sat aside.

Zhao Li sat down and clapped his hands.

With the effort of breathing, a young girl dressed as a person in the court of the Qing Dynasty walked out of a room with a red lacquer plate on her flowerpot shoes.

"Ghosts of the Qing Dynasty"

The sky roared.

"crack"

Zhao Li explained with a smile.

Cao Yi was speechless.

Zhao Li is very good at enjoying himself, and he can take care of his daily life in a way.

The girl came to the table, poured the tea with a pair of plain white hands, and returned to the room with a red lacquer plate.

"Could it be Yoshiko Kawashima?"

Xiaotian said suddenly.

Zhao Li, who had just taken a sip of tea, sprayed it directly.

"No"

He went on to explain.
