"Mr. Xiao Li...I..." Zhu Xie's chest was rising and falling, and he still wanted to speak.
I interrupted him directly and said that if he wanted to tell me the background and abilities of that traveler, he could tell me.
If he wants to say anything else, it's better not to say it again.
Zhu Xie looked at me blankly for a long time before he put the wooden box back under the mourning hall.
He knelt down in front of the mourning hall again, and kowtowed three times to the memorial tablet!
What I didn't expect again was that he didn't stand up, just moved his knees while he was kneeling, turned around, and knelt in front of me!
Immediately afterwards, Zhu Xie slapped his head again, and his body fell to the ground.
"Zhu Xie, I didn't save you because I wanted you to kneel to me." I frowned and tried to help Zhu Xie up.
As a result, Zhu Xie's strength was quite strong, and even with my support, he could not move at all.
Zhu Xie didn't get up either, his forehead was close to the ground.
His tone was low and hoarse, and every word was extremely determined!
"Mr. Li, Zhu Xian should die today. That traveler is very capable and came here to kill me and get something."
"Sir, you are kind and righteous, please save my life. This life belongs to you." "That beheading knife will no longer behead people in the future, but only those who are harmful to you and want to kill you!"
"Zhu Xie, who is lucky enough to survive, should guard the hut until his death!"
After he said this, he kowtowed twice!
Then, Zhu Xian stood up, but the deep respect in his eyes was revealed!
The incense candles in the mourning hall seem to be more intense, and the white smoke is also lingering more!
I looked up at Master's spiritual tablet.
Is this also Master's arrangement?
If he accepts Zhu Xian, there will be one more guard in Dixianglu?
I let out a heavy breath and said nothing else to dissuade him.
If I had told him, Zhu Xian would probably leave directly, and Dixianglu indeed needs someone to guard it.
"Tell me about the background of those people." I made a gesture of invitation and walked towards the main room.
After sitting down in the house, Zhu Xie explained the origin of the group of people.
It turns out that the last evil person Zhu Xian executed was named Cao Jian, and he was the leader of a gang that specialized in digging graves!
The man was greedy. He not only dug graves and stole money, but also captured the guides in some villages he passed. Finally, in order to hide the news, he killed the people.
He led a group of gangsters, headed by several gentlemen who were proficient in Feng Shui, as well as Taoist priests who could fight vicious corpses.
On weekdays, when we go to dig graves and inquire about information, it is almost always the gentleman and Taoist priests who take the lead, while the rest are disguised as servants!
I immediately thought of the evil head brought by Zhu Xie!
Without interrupting him, I nodded to show that I was listening and motioned for him to continue.
Zhu Xie carefully took out something from his arms.
It was a slightly damaged sheepskin picture.
"When I beheaded Cao Jian, he begged me for mercy and threw this thing out. He said it was enough to save his life and let me do it with him."
"His head has been designated by the officials to be killed. On the execution ground, he has no chance of survival."
"After he died, I collected the parchment and took the head with me."
"After that, his people came to me and expressed that they wanted to take the head back, and they also paid a lot of money to buy back the sheepskin diagram."
"The officials figured out their methods when they arrested people. These people are cruel and ruthless. If I gave them the plot, I would definitely be silenced. They didn't achieve their goal, so they spoke to me nicely."
"After I delayed, I left quietly."
After a slight pause, Zhu Xian told me that he did not expect to be chased to Tang Town, and he had been very careful along the way.
I told him that it was useless for him to be careful. Since there was Mr. Yang in that group of people, as long as we knew some information about him, we could predict the direction in which he left. If a group of people like this were looking for him, they would be able to find him. Some clues!
After contemplating it for a moment, I took out the Golden Dividing Ruler.
During this period, in addition to the application of Onmyoji, I gained a deeper understanding of it, and I also confirmed another method in the handbooks of other Onmyoji masters.
This is the way I used to hit people and break their bones!
If the corresponding bone phase is broken, the corresponding destiny can be broken!
It's just that my onmyoji is far from being a perfect one, and I can't trigger the protection of destiny at all.
For that group of people, you must be careful.
I signaled Zhu Xie to make some medicine and take some rest. If anything happens, I will deal with it when the people come to the door.
Zhu Xie was obviously more convinced of me. He left the parchment on the table before getting up and leaving.
I sat in the main room for a while. After thinking about it, I really couldn't make any preliminary preparations. I could only wait for the group of people to arrive before making plans.
Just as he was about to go to his room to rest, there was another knock on the door.
I frowned. Who is coming at this time?
Gou Lv?
I got up and opened the courtyard door. What surprised me for a moment was that the person standing outside the courtyard door turned out to be Xu, a paper figure.
The paper man Xu's slender body stood upright. He was carrying a square backpack, and his empty arms and sleeves were tied to his body.
"Uncle Xu...why are you here?" After asking, I almost knew the reason.
"Gou Lu came over and said, someone has entered Tang Town and asked us to pay attention to our safety. I also found out about that pedestrian. They have murderous intentions and a strong smell of earth. They look like Taoist priests on the outside, but in fact they must be murderers and grave diggers. Act."
"Gou Lu doesn't want to say more, but your second uncle, me, and He Zhi all know that this matter should be related to you. If your second uncle and He Zhi don't interfere, I will be by your side and I can help you. "The paper man Xu looked cautious and serious.
He added that they didn't want to disturb my retreat, but they certainly wouldn't let me deal with this situation alone.
I gave the paper man Xu into the Dixiang house.
"What about the executioner?" Paperman Xu asked again.
Obviously, He Pheasant should have said a lot about Zhu Xian.
"He's fine, but Uncle Xu, if you and he don't do anything, I'll send the pedestrian away."
After a pause, I added, this is the Dixiang Lu after all.
The paper man Xu's face didn't relax too much, and he said that he would arrange something outside the Dixiang Lu later.
We sat in the main room for a while and discussed some things with Xu, the paper man, and he took out several paper bundles.
Among them are those of Lady He, mother and child blood demons, and even some paper bundles that I have never seen before.
But as soon as he took it out, a special atmosphere and atmosphere filled the Dixiang Lu, which made people feel extremely oppressive.
Even Lao Huang, who was resting at the courtyard wall, stood up and stared at the paper figure Xu with an evil eye.
Paperman Xu immediately put the paper away and headed outside the courtyard.
I watched the paper man Xu at the courtyard gate. He had pulled out a lot of wires from the rooftop opposite and from the treetops on both sides of the road.
Moreover, he arranged most of the paper bundles under the treetops and under the eaves opposite.
Especially He Niangzi's paper tie, he placed it among the leaves of the old tree next to Dixiang Lu...
It was late at night when everything was set up.
Xu Cai, the paper maker, told me that in fact, most paper makers play dirty tricks instead of using paper for the bright side.
It’s easy to dodge an open gun but hard to defend against a hidden arrow!
He is hiding in the dark. If those people come with bad intentions, don't blame him for being rude.
