Ghost husband and domineering: waiting for you to be reincarnated

Chapter 488 Concealment
Just like that, the man once again invited us, master and apprentice, to come in.

However, this time the attitude was somewhat better.

I followed old man Zhou into the room, thinking that there might not be any cheaper Taoist priests, and there would be nothing good in that pile of tattered old books, right?

But I have no room to refute what old man Zhou has decided.I had no choice but to follow in dully, and felt strange when I saw that the man's kitchen had already prepared a meal.

"I said, brother, why do you want to live here by yourself? It's not like you don't know, here..."

Having said that, I subconsciously shut up.

The last time I mentioned ghosts, this man kicked us out.

The man glanced at me, but this time he didn't react much. Instead, he turned on the light and poured a cup of hot water for Old Man Zhou and me.

"I don't want to live here, I have no choice." The man sighed, "My shop was originally bought with a loan. I planned to start a small business, but I did it for a while. When I found out that I was not that material, I had to resell it and rent it out, relying on the rent, I added a little money myself, so I could repay the loan anyway, who knew that such a thing would happen!"

When he said this, his eyes were red, it was an emotion between anger and resentment.

"Then you didn't live here before?" I asked.

The man spread his hands, "Originally, my salary, plus the rent of this shop, rented a house outside, and repayed the loan, it was almost enough to use. But the shop has not been rented out for a long time, and I want to rent it out again. Paying the rent and paying the loan, I can’t afford it!”

After I heard it, I understood that he was not joking when he said he had no money.

It's just a pity, if we had come a few days earlier, maybe he wouldn't have been cheated out of some more money by the scammer.

The man saw that I stopped talking, and suddenly said to old man Zhou, "Master, I know you have real guys. Just now you said you would help me, so don't go back on your word. I really have no money now. But if you must pay, I can write you an IOU."

It sounds funny to me, Taoism is merciful to help the world, but it doesn't actually say that it doesn't help if you don't give money.If it is really rejected, it is often because the matter is contrary to cause and effect and has to be rejected.

For example, if you killed someone and the ghost of that person came to take revenge, at this time, what Taoism can do is limited.If instead he beat the suffering master to death with a stick, I'm afraid the Taoist priest would not live long.This is karma.

As for this man, he was an innocent victim, and old man Zhou would definitely not ignore it.

"Let's talk about this later, how do you know we are real Taoist priests?" Old man Zhou said with a smile.

I'm also a bit surprised by this, that man kicked us out with vicious words in the morning!
"Hey, I've seen a few of those liars before. They explained exactly what happened in my store and how to resolve it, and then asked me for money. In fact, what they said was just looking for neighbors like me. We inquired about it. It was because I had never seen the world before that I was deceived. Otherwise, what would happen?" The man became even angrier when he mentioned this, "These people actually cheated money by this, and sooner or later there will be retribution of!"

What he said is true, true Taoist priests are afraid of causing karma by doing wrong things, no matter where they are like fake Taoist priests, they will go wherever there is something wrong.

But then again, most of the people they encountered were just suspicious ghosts, trying to scare themselves.If you encounter a real ghost, it can only be said that retribution has arrived.

Old man Zhou sat aside, just listening to him, but not answering.The man waited for a while, and asked nervously, "Master, tell me, what should I do with the things in this store? I'm just a landlord, and those things have nothing to do with me..."

I saw that he was afraid, so I asked, "You are so panicked, must you have seen that thing?"

The man subconsciously glanced at old man Zhou first, "This... I've seen it before."

"How?" I asked.

In fact, he felt a little strange. Since he was anxious to find the Taoist priest, naturally the Taoist priest came to ask what happened.

But judging by his appearance, why is he still hesitating?
He is a landlord, so this matter should indeed have nothing to do with him!So what is he trying to hide?
When the man was asked by me, he dodged his eyes, "What's the matter? I heard you were at the door just now, didn't you analyze it well? Why do you ask me the other way around?"

"Your words are wrong. What we said just now are all speculations and have no basis. I am asking you now to see if these speculations are correct. Catching ghosts is not a play. Just rely on those speculations. Mistake, isn’t it going to be a bad thing?”

I frowned, a little displeased.Catching ghosts is a dangerous thing, and others are eager to tell the Taoist everything they know, for fear of missing something.Why is that?It is because catching ghosts is a matter of life and death.

If one is not careful, it is easy to kill someone.

It's good for this man, he just pushed the matter to us, but he wants to stay out of it?

"I... I... In short, I only saw that ghost once, and I don't know anything else. What do you want to ask?"

The man faltered, he seemed afraid that we would ask something, and he was afraid that we would stand up and leave if we were upset, so sitting on the stool seemed very awkward.

But I was very anxious, this man tried his best to hide something, and often this is the crux of the matter.If he doesn't tell, how can we catch ghosts for him?

At times like this, it must be said that old man Zhou has experience, and he didn't say that the man has something to hide from us.Instead, he comforted, "Don't worry. Since you've seen a ghost, tell me how you saw it. You know, it's hidden in your shop. If we want to catch it, we have to find it first. "

Old man Zhou is not serious, but he is very good at pretending when he is fooling around.Even I felt very kind after listening to him, and couldn't help but trust him a little more.

That man was even more so, he hesitated to speak after being coaxed by old man Zhou.He said that he had seen the ghost himself, and it was the stepfather of the girl in that family, as old man Zhou had speculated.

The Taoist priests who came in front all said that all three members of this family had become evil spirits, and each one was more serious than the other.Nor did the man take the opportunity to say which one he had seen.Old man Zhou and I sat outside and speculated casually, but it was consistent with what he saw, so he believed me and old man Zhou very much.

But I still don't think he's telling the truth, at least, not the whole truth.
