"Girl, this is it."
"It's just that few people live in this house recently, so don't dislike it, girl."
While talking. The old man had already led everyone to a house. When he opened the door, he could see the intertwined cobwebs and dust inside. "The other houses are all occupied, so I can only feel sorry for you."
Li Lan looked around, then turned back to look at several Taoist priests of Xuanyun Temple. Everyone nodded.
The old uncle himself didn't know it. Just like in Bagua Village, this old man might have become a ghost - the place was so dark that the so-called inhabited houses might also contain some dead people.
"Old uncle, we are staying in this room." Li Lan was not in a hurry to hand over the money to the old man, but arranged for everyone to take a rest.
The old uncle was not in a hurry to collect the money. He walked out the door with a smile and closed the door gently.
"Li Lan, this is not the haunted village mentioned in Tai Chi Palace!" Putting aside Yueying's doubts about the existence of ghosts and gods, Yueying is still smart. Even though he didn't have a map in his hand, he could tell by calculating his footsteps that this place was not a haunted village.
However, Yueying couldn't understand what Li Lan meant for a while. The old man showed signs of abnormality in every aspect. Even though he was already stooped, he was quiet when he was close to others. There should be no ghosts in this world, but the old man seemed strangely like that... ghost. .
If she hadn't been conflicted from the bottom of her heart, Yueying would have wanted to say: This village is probably haunted by the group of ghosts.
"It's not true." Li Lan looked at Yueying's awkward look and said with a smile, "But I'm afraid the source of the haunting is here."
If he hadn't encountered the dead man's skull that had been enchanted by magic before and passed through this village again, Li Lan would actually be more suspicious of someone pretending to be a ghost than there really was a ghost.
But now, Li Lan had to wonder if he had caused the haunting.
"It couldn't have been done by that thing claiming to be God again, could it?"
Yueying said that she was really convinced by the old man who claimed to be the evil god. The gods that the common people believed in always did good things for the common people, but that thing, on the other hand, knew that he was evil and not righteous, but he had no repentance and understanding, so he still behaved completely. What a good thing to do!
"Even if it's not the evil god, I'm afraid it's inseparable from him." Li Lan nodded. He had been so worried before coming here, but he didn't expect that the evil god really didn't intend to stop.
"If you ruin his practice, he will naturally be dissatisfied."
"Although everyone must be punished for such an act, as long as he does what he wants, there will always be people who worship him."
Taoist Master Xuanyunguan's analysis couldn't be more thorough, "The righteous gods will not accept gold and silver just because people who have done evil things come to them, but the evil gods may not consider the virtues of those who seek wealth just because they offer incense." .”
Seeing the sky getting darker and darker. The sun sets early in this small village surrounded by mountains on three sides, which suddenly makes the Yin Qi in the courtyard even heavier.
"I wonder what the girl needs?" The old uncle was knocking on the door from across the room, holding something in his hand, probably some food.
Not to mention that the people in the room didn't have much appetite at the moment, they clearly knew that there were ghosts in this village. Although college students like Li Lan and Yueying usually put food first besides their studies, at this time There will be no one who doesn’t care about life and only wants to show off his rice...
Until the moon climbed to the top of the mountain, the courtyard was also peaceful.
Even after she had braced herself up, it was time to fall asleep, and Yueying took the lead and began to feel drowsy.
"Wake up, wake up!"
When Yueying was woken up, it was already bright. She looked at Li Lan who woke her up in a daze. Yueying had not yet realized what was happening.
"It's time to go. You fell into that ghost's trap last night. If we hadn't discovered it in time, we still don't know if you would still be alive."
"Tao? How could it be..." Yueying subconsciously touched the magic fan used to save her life, but found that it was not on her body. Her mind stopped wandering, and she made a judgment immediately.
"Just let me go. I have to do something with you. Otherwise, if the yin energy stays in you, it will harm you."
Yueying didn't have the courage. Perhaps because of the few spells taught by Li Lan, she decided to follow and see what kind of medicine was sold in the gourd.
"Where to go?"
The yin energy in the room was getting heavier and heavier. Seeing that the ghosts all around were gathering together, and everyone was waiting for him, Yueying stood up straight and was about to walk out of the house.
Taking out a piece of talisman, Li Lan recited a spell, "The Five Elements and Five Mountains are protected by all gods. People follow the path of humanity, and ghosts follow their own paths. Subdue demons and drive them away, and ghosts are doomed. Wherever you go, humans and ghosts are everywhere."
She put the talisman on Yueying and called her a few more times. Seeing that Yueying returned to normal, Li Lan felt relieved.
Who would have thought that Yueying could calm down and ask directly: "Are you a human or a ghost?"
"There's a ghost behind you."
