Early the next morning, Lu Yi wanted to go out as usual and continue to be his own "Qing Yi Zhenren".
Just as he was about to go out, he heard Ye Ming ask:
"Busy man, where are you going today?"
"I want you to take care of it!"
Luyi would never look good on someone and didn't want to pay attention to him.
"Are you going to Hongli County today?"
"how do you know?"
"I can count, I know everything."
"So what if you know?"
"I'll go with you."
"No, what's the matter with you!"
Naturally, Lu Yi disagreed, she didn't want to be with someone.
Seeing that Ye Ming looked indifferent on the surface, Miss Wen expected that he would not do anything meaningless, so she said:
"Lv Yi, since Mr. Ye is interested, take him with you."
"Miss~~This guy definitely has no good intentions. I don't want to go with him!"
Green clothes took Miss Wen's delicate hand and shook it gently, refusing to agree.
Miss Wen tried to persuade her again and again, but Luyi didn't want Miss Wen to be disappointed, so she reluctantly agreed to take Ye Ming with her.
"Let's make an agreement first. You can go, but you are not allowed to talk and don't interrupt my work."
Lu Yi, who had just smiled at Miss Wen, turned around and his expression became fierce again.
Ye Ming did not answer, but made a gesture of sewing his mouth with his hands, indicating that he would not speak from now on.
I didn't expect this guy to be so cooperative today. Lu Yi was a little surprised, but still didn't have a good look on him.
Green clothes always walk when going out, and fly at low altitude in uninhabited places, so as to save time on the road.
It's just that she has a partner today, so her actions are different.
I saw Ye Ming cast a spell, and a bird came over and carried him flying.
This is exactly the technique of regulating birds in "The Seventy-two Transformations of Disha".
(The names of the seventy-two techniques are mentioned in the previous article. I will not repeat them again unless necessary.)
As long as Ye Ming himself does not reveal himself, mortals cannot see him, so it is convenient to ride on a bird.
Well, it's mainly for convenience, not for laziness.
As Green Clothes walked, the bird was chirping and flying around above her head, making a lot of noise.
She was flying in green clothes, and the bird was circling around her body with its feathers flying, which was very annoying.
"What on earth are you going to do!"
The very impatient masked girl glared at Asuka.
Ye Ming, who had become much smaller on the bird's back, pointed to his mouth, indicating that he could not speak.
Luyi was very angry when he saw this, but he would never let the other party speak.
Otherwise it would definitely be more annoying than it is now.
The two of them walked along and saw many beggars, dead bodies, etc. on the road.
Although he was used to seeing these scenes, Lu Yi still felt a little uncomfortable, frowned, and continued on his way.
When I was feeling bored, I suddenly smelled a refreshing fragrance, which was refreshing and swept away the gloom.
Green Yi looked back and found that the annoying guy was holding a Ganoderma lucidum in his hand. The fragrance was emitted from the Ganoderma lucidum.
The Ganoderma lucidum looked to be hundreds of years old at least, so it was extremely precious.
Lu Yi still has a clear vision now, and he was very surprised when he saw this Ganoderma lucidum.
Is this guy using such a good thing to freshen the air?
What a waste!
However, I do feel better.
Just a little bit.
...
Hongli County is a major pear-producing county, with dozens of fine pear orchards in the county.
Most families in the county rely on the sale of these pears to make a living for a year.
Among them, Wan Yuanwai is the largest household, occupying half of the troupes, and a large number of people in the county are his parents' part-time workers.
Wan Yuanwai has two worries, one is long-term worries and the other is immediate worries.
Let’s not mention long-term worries for now, let’s talk about immediate worries first.
In recent days, many pear orchard trees in the county have died, and even the best gardeners who keep watch day and night cannot stop them.
Wan Yuanwai suspected that someone was sabotaging it, so he personally led people to stay in the opera house all night, but found nothing.
The next day, the pear tree was still dead.
Now everyone in Hongli County is worried.
Everyone gathered together to discuss. Some people thought that the pear tree died for no reason, which must be some taboo, and suggested asking an expert to help.
Ten thousand people outside believed in the theory of ghosts and gods, and they took it seriously. After consulting with others, they invited nearby capable people and strangers to come and have a look. If they could solve the problem, they would be willing to thank them with a lot of money.
There are two celebrities nearby, one is Taoist Priest Jin Guang who has been quite famous over the years, and the other is Zhenren Qingyi who came in and became famous.
Someone suggested that just ask Qingyi Zhenren, this one is cheaper.
But when Wan Yuanwai heard that this was a woman, they felt it was inappropriate and decided to invite Taoist Priest Jin Guang to come with them. This was only safe.
Everyone thought it was reasonable, so they sent out invitations and invited the two of them to come here.
When they arrived, they heard someone reporting that it was the real man in Qingyi who had arrived together with a god.
Thousands of people were astonished, wondering who this divine man was.
The servants couldn't explain clearly, but they could only tell that this person was different from a mortal, and must be a god.
Wan Yuanwai, who originally didn't want to go out to greet Qingyi because he was a woman, decided to go out and have a look in person.
He led a group of people out to greet him, and saw the gauze-covered real man in Tsing Yi arriving together with a handsome, handsome young man with extraordinary bearing.
Seeing this person, Wan Yuanwai's eyes lit up, he quickly stepped forward, took the person's hand, and said with a smile:
"The master is here, and the humble house will be filled with splendor. Please come in quickly, please come in quickly."
As he said that, he pulled the man of god inside, but he was not very enthusiastic about the real man in Qingyi.
Luyi saw thousands of people dragging Ye Ming away from him, but his attitude towards him was cold and he was very dissatisfied.
Mainly aimed at a certain sanctimonious guy.
Son of a bitch!
After cursing secretly in his heart, Lu Yi still followed in.
Even though she was treated coldly, it did not stop her from helping people solve their problems.
The only thing that pleased her was that the bad guy actually didn't speak. No matter how enthusiastic Wan Yuanwai pulled him, he didn't utter a word.
Wan Yuanwai talked for a long time and found that this person just smiled at him, a smile that made people feel comfortable and respectful, but said nothing.
Just as I was wondering, I saw this man pointing at the real person in Qingyi, and he meant something.
Seeing this, Wan Yuanwai realized that this person was either speechless or inconvenient to speak.
Only then did he face up to the real man in Qing Yi who was a woman.
After the two parties formally got to know each other, Wan Yuanwai invited the two to sit down, and a servant offered preserved fruits and the like for them to enjoy.
Wan Yuanwai was not in a hurry to talk, but asked Master Qingyi for some advice.
They are all related to supernatural things. It can be seen that this person respects ghosts and gods very much.
After chatting for a while, Wan Yuanwai's impression of this Qingyi master slightly changed.
He thinks that although the other party is a woman, she is also extraordinary.
Later, another servant came to report that Taoist Master Jin Guang had arrived.
Wan Yuanwai had already heard the name of Taoist Master Jin Guang. Hearing this, he stood up and led the crowd to greet him.
Master Qing Yi, also known as Green Yi, did not go with them.
After all, she also wanted to lose face. If she followed this group of people out like this, wouldn't it make her look inferior?
Ye Ming heard that it was Taoist Priest Jin Guang who came, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, waiting here peacefully...
Not long after, Wan Yuanwai and others were seen coming in accompanied by Taoist Master Jin Guang, who was dressed in Taoist attire.
He was still the same as before, looking like a Taoist master, holding a fly whisk, followed by two Taoist boys, each holding a sword and Ruyi.
Taoist Priest Jin Guang seemed to be confident, but in fact, when he entered the room, he was already observing the surroundings secretly.
After seeing that there were actually two "companions", his eyes narrowed slightly.
Especially among these two people, one has a gauze-covered face and is quite mysterious, while the other has an extraordinary look, unlike ordinary people.
Such two people, whether they are real or fake, are not easy to deal with.
No matter what he thought in his heart, Taoist Priest Jin Guang remained calm on the surface and sat down surrounded by Wan Yuanwai and others.
After the guests and hosts were seated, Wan Yuanwai smiled and cupped his hands on both sides, and then said:
"Three experts are invited here this time. I believe they all know something about what they are about to do, right?"
"I have indeed heard about this matter, and I am here to resolve the matter for other members!"
Taoist Master Jin Guang stroked his beard and smiled, looking very mature.
Green Yi also said:
"Please also ask a member of staff to tell you in detail what happened."
Wan Yuanwai cleared his throat and detailed the incident, including the date of the incident, the person who discovered the problem, and the solutions they used.
After Wan Yuanwai finished speaking, Taoist Master Jin Guang was sure that this was a problem that he could not solve.
Since it can't be solved, then...
"So that's it. Whatever happened to your place must be caused by something evil. I'll do something about it later, and it will definitely be effective!"
When Wan Yuanwai heard this, his face lit up with joy, and he immediately began to compliment Taoist Priest Jin Guang.
Luyi had different opinions on this and said:
"Things are a little strange. We haven't gone to the scene to check. Wouldn't it be rash to draw a conclusion like this?"
"What the real person said makes sense. Since we have invited everyone over, we must go to the Liyuan to have a look."
Wan Yuanwai smiled and nodded, feeling that inviting two groups of people to come together today was a very correct decision.
Since the other party said so, Taoist Priest Jin Guang naturally would not object and stood up and said with a smile:
"That's very good. I can help you get rid of the evil thing as soon as possible, so you can save less losses."
Lu Yi looked at Taoist Priest Jin Guang a little strangely. He had heard of this person's reputation a long time ago.
It's just that I don't know why I can't see any charm of a monk in this person, and his actions seem to be extraordinary, but there is a feeling of pretentiousness.
It feels less mysterious than a sanctimonious guy.
Although he was confused in his heart, Lu Yi still knew how to respect people. He didn't say anything and just followed Wan Yuanwai and others to the Liyuan.
The pear orchard is very large, and half of the pear trees are under Wan Yuanwai's name. It was also in Wan Yuanwai's pear orchard that the pear trees were found dead.
Pear trees all die together in clusters. One day they are dead here, and tomorrow they are all dead there. There is no pattern to follow.
It is midsummer in May, and hundreds of trees are in full bloom in the pear orchard. The pear blossoms look quite beautiful, and there is a charm of their own when you are among them.
The crowd followed Wan Yuan outside to a place that was not in bloom, and saw that the pear branches here were withered and fallen, and the leaves had long fallen off. Although the tree body was intact, it had no life at all and was dead.
"This is the first time that dead trees have been found, five in total."
Wan Yuanwai pointed to a few trees and reached out to knock on the tree. Sure enough, it made a hollow sound.
It was obviously dry inside.
Seeing this, Green Yi said directly:
"Can you split it open and take a look?"
This is a matter of course, and Wan Yuanwai ordered people to bring an ax and chop it.
The trunk of the tree was split open, and you could see that the inside was dry and there was no heart at all.
Green clothes also let him split several other trees, and it was the same.
Seeing this, Luyi couldn't figure out the reason for a while, and began to think about various possibilities...
Taoist Priest Jin Guang was the best at taking advantage of loopholes. Seeing that Lu Yi couldn't distinguish between true and false for a moment, he immediately laughed and said:
"Hahaha~~ What did the poor man say? It turned out to be a 'tree-eating ghost'. This ghost feeds on the heart of trees. Every time it eats a tree, its magic power increases by one point. When the magic power increases and it transforms into a human, it will He will eat people, which is extremely dangerous..."
Under the description of Taoist Master Jin Guang, the "Tree Heart Ghost" was born.
Everyone was surprised to hear that this ghost was so powerful, especially Wan Yuanwai, who was even more frightened and quickly asked how to subdue this ghost.
Taoist Master Jin Guang stroked his beard and said:
"Simply, it was discovered early. This ghost has not yet become a phenomenon. When the poor Taoist opens the altar, he will be captured and killed, and this evil spirit will be eliminated!"
Everyone was overjoyed when they heard this, and quickly ordered people to prepare ritual instruments and asked Taoist Master Jin Guang to perform rituals to eliminate evil spirits.
