The girl had already prepared for the incense money and quickly took out a fifty-tael silver note.
"Um."
Master Xiangyun slowly put away the banknotes, nodded and said: "Go ahead."
Everyone went down the mountain.
Xu Yang frowned slightly.
He was a little puzzled.
If there is really a big demon causing trouble, can Master Xiangyun really feel relieved and let his apprentice go down the mountain? ?
Seemingly sensing Xu Yang's confusion, Master Xiangyun smiled and said, "Little friend Xu, do you have anything to ask?"
"Senior, are you so relieved to let Xiao Yi go down the mountain??"
Xu Yang asked a question.
Taoist Priest Xiangyun chuckled: "Young people must learn to grow up. Blindly protecting them will not make them stronger."
"But, what if the father of the woman's family is really sick??"
Taoist priest Xiangyun showed deep eyes, looked up to the sky, and sighed: "Although I have ten thousand ways to treat people, but you know, I never save people casually."
"Why?"
"Respecting the misfortunes of others is also a kind of practice. Besides, why should I save? Can you give me a reason?"
Xu Yang pondered and nodded slightly.
Yes, respect the misfortunes of others.
He and Lin Yu encountered many misfortunes along the way, but didn't they save anyone?
When he encountered a secret realm before, he didn't go in for safety reasons.
"But you and your wife are different." Taoist Master Xiangyun changed the topic, "You are just golden elixirs. You still need to walk more and see more. Besides, you must have another purpose when you come here and do some good deeds. It’s good for your practice.”
"Xu understands."
Xu Yang took a deep breath and felt that what Taoist Xiangyun said made sense.
Immediately, he and Lin Yu went down the mountain, preparing to go there with Mao Xiaoyi.
Looking at their backs, Taoist priest Xiangyun breathed a sigh of relief.
"Nima, it's so tiring to pretend to be superior every time."
Taoist priest Xiangyun couldn't help but wipe the sweat from his forehead.
In fact, the reason why he didn't go down the mountain was purely because what if there was really a demon there?
Last time the girl came over to ask for help, he just sold her a fake talisman, hoping to make a fortune, and the other party would die as well.
Unexpectedly, he was not dead, and the girl came over again.
He could only make excuses, her father must be sick.
After all, he doesn't save the sick.
But the girl didn't want to leave, so he had no choice but to ask his apprentice Mao Xiaoyi to go down the mountain.
Fortunately, he knew that Mao Xiaoyi was capable. Over the years, Mao Xiaoyi had helped him solve a lot of troubles.
"Hey, Mao Xiaoyi has really worked hard over the years! Let's reward him with some money later. Otherwise, if he runs away, I'm afraid I will have to close my shop."
Master Xiangyun shook his head and said.
…………
…………
After descending the mountain, we followed a winding path and soon came to an official road.
Mao Xiaoyi and the girl walked together, Xu Yang and Lin Yu walked aside, and the four of them chatted.
The girl's name is Huang Liuyan. Her father is in the wine-making business. The business is not large, but he is still considered a small boss in the town.
"Don't worry, Miss Huang. If it is really evil, the bronze sword in my hand will definitely kill the monster. Do you know the origin of the bronze sword in my hand?"
Mao Xiaoyi asked confidently.
Huang Liuyan glanced at the old and faded bronze sword in his hand, which was disgusted even if it was thrown on the ground. She frowned slightly and shook her head slightly: "What's the origin??"
"My master gave it to me."
Huang Liuyan said speechlessly: "I know it belongs to your master. What I mean is, what is so powerful about this sword??"
"Uh...usually when I go out to slay demons, I basically just use one sword."
Mao Xiaoyi puffed up his chest and said subconsciously.
"A sword?" Huang Liuyan curled her lips, not quite believing it.
In fact, when she came, the old housekeeper at home, as well as some relatives and friends, warned her that the Taoist priest of Deyun Temple might be a liar.
It seems that many people have been fooled.
Huang Liuyan didn't want to come at first, but she found everyone she could find.
All were helpless.
Now, when she seeks out the disciples of Deyunguan, she is treating a dead horse as a living horse doctor.
But now seeing Mao Xiaoyi acting so awesome, to be honest, Huang Liuyan looked disappointed.
Because it really sounds like bragging.
As he was walking, a woman in her forties walked towards her, with a sad look on her face, as if she had something on her mind.
She was holding a basket in her hand with some wild vegetables in it. When she left, some wild vegetables fell to the ground, but she didn't seem to care and was in a very bad state.
Xu Yang sensed some bad aura on her body.
Seems to be haunted by evil spirits.
The woman was passing by here, recognized Mao Xiaoyi, and said quickly: "Little Taoist Master, I'm going up the mountain to find you."
Mao Xiaoyi also recognized the other party: "Aunt Xu, what do you want from me?"
"I...I seem to have a problem. A few days ago, I went to the mountains to pick wild vegetables and accidentally dug up a nest of snake eggs. After that, snakes often appeared in my house, sometimes on the beams, sometimes on the roof. On the table, it was even more outrageous last night. It appeared directly on the bed. Now it makes me in a trance. I can’t sleep well. I don’t know what to do. Alas..."
Xu Yang didn't say anything when he heard this. He wanted to see how Mao Xiaoyi, a disciple of Master Xiangyun, could eliminate the demon.
Huang Liuyan had the same thought, and she thought, let's see how you pretend.
If you can't even solve such a small problem, then you must be a liar.
Unexpectedly, Mao Xiaoyi seemed very calm. He turned to Huang Liuyan and said, "Miss Huang, Aunt Xu's family lives nearby. Can I go to her house first to help solve the problem there."
"Of course, but what's the problem there?"
Mao Xiaoyi said: "Obviously, it's a snake demon. Aunt Xu accidentally broke a nest of snake eggs. She must be a descendant of the snake demon. That snake demon is taking revenge on Aunt Xu! However, in my opinion, the snake demon His strength should not be high. If it were a powerful snake demon, Aunt Xu, you might have been in trouble long ago."
Aunt Xu was startled and said quickly: "Little Taoist Priest, you have to save me."
"Don't worry, Master said, saving one life is better than building a seven-level pagoda!"
After that, he walked towards Aunt Xu's home.
He often goes down the mountain to perform religious duties, and he knows the residences of the villagers at the foot of the mountain very well.
Soon, I arrived at Aunt Xu’s home.
"Husband, there is indeed a demonic energy here, but it is very weak. It should be a little demon that has just become a spirit." Lin Yu saw the problem here at a glance.
Mao Xiaoyi took out a yellow talisman.
This is a talisman of mortal Taoism, completely different from the talisman of the immortal world.
The material is just made of yellow paper. The paper quality is very poor. To be honest, it is too thin to wipe your butt.
Especially the talisman in Mao Xiaoyi's hand, even if the paper is poor, the cinnabar on it has faded, making the talisman look very worn.
Xu Yang seriously doubted whether this talisman could be used.
The answer is that it works.
I saw Mao Xiaoyi sticking the talisman on the beam in front of Aunt Xu's house.
Suddenly, the evil spirit in the room was gone.
"Okay." Mao Xiaoyi clapped his hands: "Aunt Xu, fortunately you have a little snake demon here. I can solve it with the talisman I refined myself. Otherwise, I would have to use my master's talisman, which would be troublesome."
"Really?" Aunt Xu was a little confused.
She really wanted to ask, little Taoist priest, can you just put a talisman on it and it will be fine?
"Little Taoist, is the snake demon really gone? How about asking your master to check." Aunt Xu was still a little worried.
Mao Xiaoyi said helplessly: "My master makes a move, and the starting price is fifty taels, and I am cheaper, you can just pay it as you see."
Aunt Xu was startled and said with some embarrassment: "It's so expensive to ask your master to help."
They are just ordinary people, how can they afford so much money.
Mao Xiaoyi smiled and said: "Of course, that's why I said, I will help you solve it."
"That's fine, how much money do you want?"
Aunt Xu asked out of trust in Mao Xiaoyi.
Mao Xiaoyi said calmly: "Well, my master likes to eat braised pork. I think the bacon hanging at your door is quite good."
"OK!"
Aunt Xu smiled, took off the bacon and handed it to Mao Xiaoyi.
Xu Yang looked at this scene and nodded slightly: "As expected of the disciple of Master Huashen. He seems ordinary, but I didn't expect him to be so powerful."
He just noticed that when Mao Xiaoyi took out the ordinary talisman and placed it on the beam, a strong sword energy instantly penetrated the talisman.
Immediately, Fu Lu seemed to have eyes, and a force spread.
Then, a snake demon hiding in the backyard ran away in a panic.
"Mao Xiaoyi should have discovered the snake demon, but the snake demon was too weak and chose to let it go."
Xu Yang guessed.
This is in line with the philosophy of Master Xiangyun, who neither does good deeds nor kills easily.
"A great teacher produces a great disciple."
Finally, Xu Yang had to sigh.
As for Huang Liuyan, she was confused.
On the way to her house, she was still curious, had the snake demon in that house really been solved? ?
Unknowingly, I arrived at Huang Liuyan's home.
Her home was quite luxurious in the town, and there were three dejected doctors standing at the door.
Chatting with an old woman.
"Hey, Mrs. Huang, there's nothing we can do."
"This person is in good health, but he is unconscious. In my opinion, he must be possessed by evil spirits."
Mrs. Huang, who was Huang Liuyan's mother, said with a bitter face: "But we invited Master Xiangyun's talisman, but it's useless. It's an exorcism talisman, and it cost dozens of taels of silver."
"Oh, that Taoist priest from Deyun Temple is a liar."
"good."
Everyone around them nodded.
"You can't cure people, so you say my master is a liar. Hmm, what evidence is there to say that my master is a liar?"
Mao Xiaoyi shouted.
"Who are you……"
Mrs. Huang's old eyes were dim and she couldn't see Mao Xiaoyi's face clearly.
"Mom, this is Master Xiangyun's disciple. He said he has a way, so let him try it."
Huang Liuyan has no choice now.
Xu Yang stood outside and looked at the house.
There is no evil spirit here, and there is no evil spirit at all.
This shows that there are no evil spirits causing trouble here.
"Could it be that Mr. Huang is really sick?"
Xu Yang and Lin Yu entered the house together.
Entering a ward, Xu Yang saw Mr. Huang lying motionless and unconscious on the bed.
"Dad, I have invited the Taoist priest to come over for you. Dad, please open your eyes and take a look."
Huang Liuyan shook the patient on the bed.
Mao Xiaoyi patted Huang Liuyan on the shoulder: "Stop shaking me. If you keep shaking me, you will shake me out of trouble."
"Little Taoist Priest, tell me, what happened to my father?"
Mao Xiaoyi nodded and said, "Your father is missing something, it should be."
