Forbidden City

Chapter 68 Intimidation

This woman in yellow, I think she is the woman who came out of the toy store.Could it be that she took Xinxin away?I wanted to ask her now, but I didn't see her face clearly at the time, I was afraid that my question would be too abrupt, so I had to give up.

I followed Mu Yi into the house. There are several ghosts and gods enshrined in the house, including Zhong Kui, Tathagata Buddha and so on. There is also an old man with white hair and a childish face with white hair. I thought it was Zhang Guolao, but later I found out that it was Mai Patriarch.

And the red candles were lit under the altar, but the lights were not turned on, making it look gloomy.

I thought I was in a ghost town.Walking through a long corridor like a road to hell, I came to a living room, and saw an old man sitting in front of a tea set, concentrating on making tea.

The room was spacious, and the incandescent lights were much brighter.There are also pictures of a few old men hanging on the wall of the house. I don't know what their origins are, but they seem to be quite kind.

Mu Yi glanced at me, beckoning me to be respectful, then came to the old man, bent down, and said respectfully: "Master Li, we are here."

I took a closer look and was secretly taken aback. Isn't this the old fortune-teller who was under the streetlight when I was going to see Yinger?
The old man glanced at me and Mu Yi each, and when he saw me, he smiled slightly, then nodded and said, "Please sit down."

Mu Yi and I both sat down, doubts arose in our hearts, how could this old man be here?Looking at him like this, he seems to be very dignified, and he wouldn't go to the bus station to tell someone's fortune.And Muyi brought me here, obviously Xinxin was caught here, could it be that the old man has been secretly paying attention to me for a long time?And he had premeditated to capture Xinxin?
The ghost guessed that the old man had already brewed a pair of tea. He put two small porcelain cups in front of Mu Yi and me with a tong, and poured tea for us. I looked into the cups and saw that the tea was red and crystal clear.

The fortune teller saw that I was the same as Mu Yi, he laughed and said, "Please drink tea."

Mu Yi and I took a small sip each of our teacups. When we first entered our mouths, the taste was a bit astringent, but when the tea slowly penetrated into our throats, we felt a refreshing aftertaste, sweet, with a A sense of enlightenment.

The ghostly old man picked up the teacup, blew into the teacup, and asked, "How does it taste?"

Mu Yi praised: "Good tea!"

I said: "It's okay."

The old ghost ghost took a sip, put down the teacup, and said slowly: "This tea is like tasting wine. If you blend in with it, you will get drunk..."

I think the old man is Rosso!Concerned about Xinxin's safety, but also thinking about Ling Ziyao, how could he have the heart to drink tea and listen to his nonsense?It was like sitting on pins and needles for a while.

Seeing my absent-minded look, the old man asked, "Young man, do you have something on your mind?"

I said straightforwardly, "Give Xinxin back to me."

"You're talking about that little ghost?" The old ghost fortune teller said unhurriedly: "It's a ghost fetus, if it is allowed to stay in the world, it will be a disaster." I hurriedly said: "Xinxin is not a ghost, she is a ghost." Besides, she never harms anyone, so give her back to me."

The old man Guisuan glanced at me, smiled and did not speak, and drank tea on his own.

With his careless appearance, I was so anxious that I wanted to blow the cup of tea in his hand away.But, I hold back.If I can't bear it, it will lead to chaos and big plans. If I get angry now, not only will I not be able to save Xinxin, but it will also make it difficult for me to do anything.

At this time, the woman in the yellow skirt came over and sat beside the old man Guisuan, and continued to make tea for us without saying a word.

I took a closer look at her this time, and I saw that she has a goose face, willow eyebrows, almond eyes and a cherry mouth. She is quite temperamental, and she has double eyelids. She has a white neck and large breasts. , flowing clouds and flowing water, in one go, just like Xiaojiabiyu, dignified and elegant.

The ghost old man looked at me with a pair of thief eyes, and said with a half-smile: "This girl is Yanxi, boy, if you are interested in her, just talk to her directly, don't watch it secretly, it's very rude .”

"..." I was speechless for a moment.

Mu Yi coughed lightly, with a straight face, as if I had embarrassed him.

"I'm not interested in anyone." I controlled the anger in my heart and said, "I only want Xinxin, please return her to me."

After hearing this, Yan Xi was neither angry nor angry, she was still making tea with a smile, as if what we were talking to her had nothing to do with her.I really doubt she is a ghost.

The old fortune-teller stared at me with a judgmental look, and asked arrogantly: "Boy, don't you know that is a little ghost? Do you think that an ordinary person like you can keep that little ghost?"

"Xinxin is not a ghost, but a human being!" I said loudly, "She is my child, you have no right to take her away!"

The old fortune-teller was neither angry nor angry, and still said unhurriedly: "She is a human or a ghost. In fact, you know it well in your heart, so why deceive yourself? May I ask how long has she been born? Why is she only four or five days old like a four or five-year-old child?" What about it? Also, has she felt dizzy these days?"

"Dizziness..." Yes, Xinxin has been a little dizzy for the past two days, but what does this mean?I wanted to admit this fact, but I couldn't say it, I was dissatisfied, but I couldn't find anything to refute, so I just lowered my head, feeling uneasy for a while.

"Young man, don't be impulsive, and consider the consequences in everything." The old fortune-teller knocked on the coffee table and said, "The reason why I brought the little devil back is that I can't let her fall into the hands of people with evil intentions, because once she falls into that In the hands of such people, this little ghost not only can't change a person, but also can become a ghost controlled by people; second, as an ordinary person, you can't afford to raise a little ghost, and you can't keep a little ghost alive. If you let her If she stays by your side for more than four days, she will either lose her soul or turn into a lonely ghost. Think about it, is this the result you want to see?"

I was taken aback, and subconsciously looked at Mu Yi, wanting to ask her if this is true, the old fortune teller is not trying to scare me, right?However, Mu Yi nodded his head.I gasped, looked at the fortune-teller and said sincerely, "Master, please save Xinxin."

"Hey, tell me to save her, didn't you want to accuse me just now?" The old fortune-teller remained calm.

I felt ashamed for a moment, and hurriedly apologized: "I'm sorry, I was impulsive just now."

At this moment, Mu Yi said: "Mr. Li, before Xin Xin becomes a ghost, you can help him."

"Help him?" The old fortune-teller said calmly, "That's a ghost. It's not easy to help him? You think it's a patient who prescribes a medicine and drinks it and he'll be fine."

It just occurred to me that the old fortune-teller had a purpose in arresting Xinxin, so I asked as politely as possible: "Mr. Li, if you can save Xinxin, just tell me what you want me to do."

"I want you to deal with ghosts, can you do it?" The old fortune-teller looked at me with a half-smile.I thought to myself, what kind of business is dealing with ghosts?The old man also said just now, I am just an ordinary person, how can I deal with ghosts?Could it be that every ghost is as easy to get along with as Ling Ziyao?I think the fortune-teller is trying to embarrass me.

"I don't know how to deal with ghosts at all." I said truthfully, "I can't catch ghosts, and I can't tell ghosts. Besides, I heard that ghosts can't be seen easily. I don't have yin and yang eyes, so ..."

"If you want, I can teach you." The old fortune-teller said, "I think you are a talent, and you are talented. You can join our sect."

I thought I heard it wrong, and looked at Muyi again, she still just nodded slightly.I think this is weird. The purpose of the old fortune-teller is obviously to get me to join their sect. Could it be that it is really my innate ability?Could this be a trap?However, Mu Yi is here, if this is a trap, there is no reason why Mu Yi can't find it, and it is even more impossible for Mu Yi to be in collusion with the old fortune teller.

Based on my knowledge of Mu Yi, she will not harm me.

I said calmly: "Master thinks highly of me, I am very honored, but, where is my talent? This ability, you mean—"

The old fortune-teller took a sip of his tea and said slowly, "You have to join our sect first, and I'll tell you later."

I asked, "What sect are you? It can't be the Sun Moon God sect, right?"

"Hey, no," said the ghost-calculator old man, "We are ghostbusters."

Interesting, but I don't know how to catch ghosts.

The old head of ghost calculation understood what I was thinking, and said to me: "As long as you take me as your teacher, I will teach you how to catch ghosts. Moreover, you can learn how to catch ghosts from me while working."
