Murong Danyan thought to himself, when Sister Xiaoyu encountered strange things in Lao Weng Mountain, she was just a seven or eight-year-old girl, and nine times out of ten, she was hallucinated under fear. But how could Wang Yuanwai and Steward Wang also see the night walk of a hundred ghosts? This thing is a bit strange.

She was thinking about it, only to hear Wang Xiaoyu continue: "I listened to Uncle Wang's words, and my heart was frightened. Uncle Wang comforted me and said that although the hundred ghosts killed people and killed Buddhas when they met Buddhas, as long as they didn't provoke those evil ghosts, they wouldn't run out to kill people. The reason why these demons refuse to be reincarnated is because they are too persistent and always want to seek revenge on the person who killed them. For example, Yang Jian, Yang Yong and others, they died at the hands of Yang Guang and Yang Su, and they are bound to find these two people for revenge. And these two people live in Chang'an, so these evil ghosts only haunt Chang'an. After Yang Su died at the hands of evil ghosts, Yang Guang went to Jiangdu under the pretext of watching Qionghua, but he actually wanted to leave Chang'an to avoid trouble. After he arrived in Jiangdu, the evil ghost really never appeared again. Li Shimin was entangled by the ghosts of Li Jiancheng, Li Yuanji and others, fortunately, there were generals Wei Chigong and Qin Shubao to deter the ghosts, and later invited the monks to do it, and set up a water and land dojo in Chang'an. It can be seen that in order to deal with the nocturnal movement of the hundred ghosts, you must either leave the place where these evil spirits haunt, or invite heroes who can suppress the evil spirits to suppress them. Of course, you can also ask the monks to do things to surpass these evil spirits.

Uncle Wang said that these evil spirits were burned to death in the unscrupulous temple because they would only do evil in the left and right of Lao Weng Mountain, and would not run to other places to do evil. My father has sent someone to the Qianshan Ancient Temple to invite the monks to come and forget their souls. Moreover, my father intended to build a large temple on Lao Weng Mountain to deter these ghosts. As long as I stay in Wangjiazhuang honestly and don't go to the left side of Lao Weng Mountain, those evil ghosts won't be able to hurt me.

"After listening to Uncle Wang's words, my heart was at ease. In those days, Uncle Wang often came to talk to me, and I realized that he had many stories in his stomach. What Tang Taizong traveled to the underworld at night, and Song Taizu sent Jingniang thousands of miles away, which is more interesting than those troupes who went to Zhuangzi to sing shadow puppets. After I recovered from my illness, I often pestered Uncle Wang to tell stories. It's just that after this incident, I no longer dare to approach Lao Weng Mountain. ”

Wang Xiaoyu said this, paused slightly, and then said: "In the past few years, I haven't heard of anything strange happening on Lao Weng Mountain, but Motianling is haunted again. Motianling is the throat road leading to Liaoyang Mansion in Dongliao County, and there were many great battles on the ridge in those years, with countless casualties, and it was originally a place with great resentment. The Yamen of Dongliao County made it a court again, and it would be strange if it was not haunted. ”

Murong Danyan shook his head and said, "The words of ghosts and gods are ultimately slim. When I first came out, I also encountered evil spirits that harmed people. It's just that in the end, you find out that someone is playing tricks and pretending to be ghosts to harm people! The more you believe that there are ghosts in this world, the more likely it will be for you to be fooled. Although I don't know why there are so many strange things happening in Lao Weng Mountain and Motianling, I don't believe that there are ghosts. Sister Xiaoyu, if you have free time these days, I can teach you some self-defense tricks, maybe if you encounter these strange things again, you won't be afraid. ”

Wang Xiaoyu's eyes lit up, he sat up from the bed all of a sudden, held Murong Danyan's hands, and said in a trembling voice, "Sister Murong, are you really willing to teach me martial arts?"

Seeing that she was so enthusiastic, Murong Danyan was amused, nodded, and said, "I can't talk about teaching or not." My little bit of martial arts isn't a big deal, but I'm just studying with my sister, and maybe I can use it. ”

Wang Xiaoyu shook Murong Danyan's hands vigorously and said with a smile: "Sister is too humble." That day, I saw that you had beaten away a few evil young men at the north gate of Dongliao County, and I admired my sister very much. Seeing you and the surnamed Xiao fighting swords again tonight, I was dumbfounded, and I was extremely envious in my heart. If I had learned from my sister Issei, I wouldn't have been so scared even if I encountered evil spirits again. ”

When she said this, she immediately knelt on the bed and said with a smile: "Master is above, please bow to the apprentice!"

After Wang Xiaoyu finished speaking, he wanted to kowtow to Murong Danyan. Murong Danyan hurriedly stretched out his hands to support Wang Xiaoyu's arm, and said angrily: "Sister Xiaoyu, what are you doing? We have a deep sisterhood, how can I afford such a big gift from my sister? Let's just learn martial arts, I don't dare to be your master." ”

The two laughed, and they heard the sound of bangs outside the house, and it was already the third watch. The two of them said a few more words, only to feel a wave of tiredness welling up, and before they knew it, they had fallen asleep.

Li Qiufeng followed the Zhuang Ding all the way to the entrance of the village, and did not encounter any obstacles. However, Li Qiufeng had already heard that there were many people in ambush on both sides of the road, and secretly thought that although these Zhuang Ding in Wangjiazhuang did not understand martial arts, they were so heavily guarded, which was somewhat similar to the military camp.

The Zhuang Ding sent Li Qiufeng to the entrance of the village, and said: "Gongzi walks forward half a mile from here to the official road, and then turns south, and you can reach the north gate of Dongliao County." It's just that the city gate has been locked now, and I'm afraid that Gongzi will have to sleep outside the city for one night. ”

Li Qiufeng said: "Thank you brother for reminding me to say goodbye." After he finished speaking, he left Wangjiazhuang and turned back to Dongliao County along the way he came. Outside the north gate of the county seat, I saw that the city gate was closed, and there were two lanterns hanging on the arrow tower at the head of the city, but I couldn't see the shadow of the officers and soldiers guarding the city. Li Qiufeng turned right along a small road outside the city gate, bypassed the west gate of the city, and reached the wharf on the south side of Dongliao County. This big circle went around, and Rao is feet were extremely fast, but he also walked for more than half an hour before he found Qin Lao Wu's big boat. A boatman was ordered by Qin Lao Wu to wait for Li Qiufeng at the bow of the boat, and when he saw him arrive, he hurriedly put down the plank. Li Qiufeng returned to the boat, thanked the boatman, and helped him retract the plank, and then returned to his cabin to rest.

Nothing was said all night. When I got up early the next morning, a boatman brought food. After Li Qiufeng finished breakfast, he sat cross-legged in the cabin and worked hard. When the true qi walked through the whole body, I only felt that my mind was clear, and my whole body was very comfortable. He thought to himself, according to what Qin Lao Wu said, it would only take two days at most to repair the mast. If you spend more silver, a money-greedy person like Wei Erbao may be able to repair the mast in one day. In this way, you can pull the anchor and set sail tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. Thinking of this, he remembered the appointment with Murong Danyan, and his heart tingled.

By this time, the sky was already bright. Li Qiufeng walked onto the deck, but saw Zhang Shi and Xiao Dong standing on the bow of the boat talking. Seeing Li Qiufeng come out, Zhang Shi hurriedly stepped forward and said, "I heard Lao Qin say that Brother Zhu showed his might last night, and everyone in Wangjiazhuang was defeated, and Brother Zhu worked hard. ”

Li Qiufeng shook his head again and again, and said, "Zhang Yuan's words are serious. There is an old man who happens to live in Wangjiazhuang, and he mediates from it, so the eldest lady of the Wang family does not embarrass us. What's more, it was Lord Xiao who used martial arts to deter the other party last night, otherwise things would be really troublesome. ”

Xiao Dong stood aside, and saw Zhang Shi praising Li Qiufeng, and he was quite disdainful in his heart. It wasn't until I heard Li Qiufeng praise himself that I calmed down a little, and secretly thought that this kid was quite sensible. I had intended to get rid of you when it was done, but if you had known each other and surrendered to me, perhaps I would have spared your life.

Zhang Shi knew that Xiao Dong was narrow-minded, and when he heard himself praise Li Qiufeng so much, he must not like it. It was because he changed his mind and said a few good words to Xiao Dong. Li Qiufeng said: "Zhang Yuanwai, can we leave today?"

Zhang Shi said: "Lao Qin led people to carry the wood to find Wei Erbao early in the morning. He said that if things were done well, the mast could be repaired in the evening. It's just that the boat at night is too dangerous, not to mention that we have to add some rice and water. It is the fastest time that it will be able to pull anchor early tomorrow morning before it can set sail. ”

Zhang Shi's voice fell, and he only heard Xiao Dong say: "Zhu Gongzi worked hard last night. You sent those two girls back to Wangjiazhuang, and those villagers didn't embarrass you, right?"

Li Qiufeng said: "The scale of Wangjiazhuang is really huge, but fortunately, with the help of Miss Wang and Miss Mu, no one is difficult for me." ”

Xiao Dong snorted and said, "This bastard rich man is so majestic, he has done a lot of illegal things. After we finish our business in Fusang, I will go back to the capital and write a letter to the governor of Liaodong, asking him to send someone to check on this bastard surnamed Wang. If he does something lawless, he will be bankrupt and will never be able to turn over!"
