Master touched my head again: "Okay, go take a shower and go to bed."
I responded and walked towards the kitchen.
At this time, I discovered that my mother and sister had left at some point and disappeared into the main room.
When I came to the kitchen, I carried a water bottle to the yard, took a big wooden basin, and started taking a bath in the yard.
That was the way it was in rural areas at that time. There were no bathrooms at home.
After the shower, I dried myself off, put on my underwear and went back to my room to sleep.
I slept on a small bed, and Master slept on a big bed.
Under the whirring sound of the electric fan, I quickly fell asleep.
Drowsily, I was woken up by the sound of talking.
When I opened my eyes, it was already day and night outside.
It was the voice of the master, and the voice of his best friend, the old Taoist priest Li Ergou.
I pricked up my ears and started listening.
Just listen to the master saying to Li Ergou: "If I didn't use the locust tree to suppress Zhao Ziting, she would become a fierce ghost, and everyone in this village would suffer."
Li Ergou chuckled: "But God's calculations are not as good as those of humans. You definitely didn't expect that the locust tree would be struck down by lightning."
The master sighed: "Yes, I really didn't calculate this.
But what I can't figure out is why Zhao Ziting's soul only turned into a trace of regret?
If it was just a trace of regret, how could it kill its younger brother?
And you also know that Cannian's existence only lasts for a quarter of an hour at most. "
Li Ergou coughed lightly: "Could it be that you think Jianfei did it?"
My master replied: "I'm not sure. I asked him and he said that when he saw Zhao Ziting's soul, Zhao Ziting's soul had already become a remnant."
"So someone else interfered?" Li Ergou's voice was obviously a little softer, but I could still hear it clearly.
I finally understand that Master is still wondering why Zhao Ziting's ghost has only turned into a trace of remnant.
If I told them the truth, they wouldn't believe it.
Because they can't see my sister at all, they won't believe it even more if they say that my sister eats ghosts.
The master said at this time: "Maybe the ghost-expelling charm I posted on the door of the hall worked."
Li Ergou was happy: "Hahaha, Zhao Laosan, I'm not telling you, just your broken talisman can be avoided by wandering spirits."
I thought that Zhao Ergou was right. Zhao Ziting's soul entered my master's house last night very easily. The talisman on the door of the main room had no effect at all.
I got out of bed and came to the main room.
I saw the master saying to Li Ergou with an unconvinced face: "Don't underestimate the talismans I drew. There are many people who want them."
Li Ergou sneered: "You are just fooling the rich people in the city."
As he said that, he looked at me: "Jianfei, go get me a cup of tea when you wake up."
The master glared at him: "I don't have any hands? Why should my apprentice pour it for you?"
As soon as he finished speaking, dense footsteps sounded in the yard.
Judging from the voices, there were at least several people.
I quickly looked towards the yard.
The big iron gate of the front yard was pushed open, and Zhao Youlong, the village chief's brother, entered the yard with six fierce-looking young men.
They came straight to the main room.
Although I was young at the time, I also knew that Zhao Youlong was not a good person and was known as the village bully in the village.
Usually, he relies on his brother Zhao Dahai as the village chief, and does a lot of evil in the village.
One of the two wooden doors in the main room is open and the other is ajar.
Zhao Youlong raised his foot and kicked open a door that was ajar, and then walked into the main room.
My master's face turned a little ugly for a moment, and he said indifferently: "What's the matter?"
Zhao Youlong was gearing up, and he actually reached out and pointed directly at me, and said sternly: "This kid, follow me!"
My master stood up suddenly: "What do you mean?"
I ran quickly to Master, feeling extremely scared.
I don't understand why Zhao Youlong wants me to go with him.
Zhao Youlong said to my master fiercely: "Old Zhao is superstitious, don't you like to engage in superstition?
Now many people in the village say that my nephew Zhao Dong was killed by this little beast Wang Jianfei. "
My eyes widened. What do you mean I defeated Zhao Dong to death? Isn't this nonsense?
My master's face was expressionless and his voice was very calm: "Do you believe what those talkative women say?"
Zhao Youlong roared: "I don't care! My nephew died because he met Wang Jianfei!"
"Shut up! Just let me do whatever I have to do!"
A voice came from the yard.
It was the voice of village chief Zhao Dahai.
Zhao Youlong said anxiously: "Brother, I must make Wang Jianfei disabled so that I can comfort Xiaodong's spirit in heaven!"
Zhao Dahai had already entered the main room at this time.
He looked at Zhao Youlong with a cold face: "Get back here!"
As he said that, he raised his foot and kicked Zhao Youlong.
Zhao Youlong dodged while shouting: "I don't care! Even if I don't cripple this little brat like Wang Jianfei today, I will cripple him in the future!"
My master said: "Zhao Youlong, let me put my ugly words here. If you dare to touch my apprentice Wang Jianfei, I will make your life worse than death!"
Zhao Youlong scolded: "What a fool, Mr. Zhao is superstitious, do you really think you are a Feng Shui master? I can kick you to death with one kick, you old liar!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Dahai gave him a crisp slap: "Go back! I don't want to repeat it a third time."
Zhao Youlong was so angry that he smiled back: "Okay, fine!"
As he said that, he pointed at my master, then at me, and then left with the others.
After Zhao Youlong left, Zhao Dahai said with a livid face: "Third Master, I made you laugh. I will definitely discipline him well when I go back."
My master waved his hand and said nothing.
Zhao Dahai continued: "Third Master, you said you would help my Xiaodong to be saved, but I don't know..."
My master pointed at Li Ergou.
Li Ergou stood up and said, "I am a poor Taoist who is the Chengfeng Celestial Master of Jiutian Temple on Qingyue Mountain. He is here to save your son."
Zhao Dahai seemed to be shocked by Li Ergou's name, and said in a trembling voice: "Thank you, master, thank you, third master! Then let's leave now."
Master looked at me: "Just stay at home and don't go anywhere. Do you understand?"
As he said that, he winked at me and told me not to run around and be careful of Zhao Youlong.
I nodded. I originally wanted to go with Master and the others, but I didn’t want to see Zhao Dong’s dead look, so I gave up the idea.
After Master and others left, I went to the yard to wash up.
This time, Master only locked the big iron gate in the front yard, leaving the main room door unlocked.
After I washed up, I went to the kitchen to find some pastries to eat.
While eating, the sound of voices suddenly came from the main room.
"Dad, don't stop me, I have to go!"
I knew who it was by the sound of the voice.
I came to the main room and saw my grandfather and father pulling something together at a glance.
The father said with a cold face: "If you want to destroy my son, then I will destroy him first!"
I whispered: "Grandpa, Dad, why are you here?"
