Chapter 14 Grimace

The car drove all the way out of the city, passed through several towns, and then turned into the mountains.

As the mountains get higher, there are fewer people and the sky gets darker.

Looking through the car window, I could see only mountains and woods along the way.

If it weren't for the car he was riding in, Li Changan would have thought he had returned to that ancient world.

He was bored after sitting for a long time, so he lay back on his seat, beat the time with his fingers, and softly hummed a tune.

"The bright moon shines, the gloomy wind blows in the willow alley... Wandering souls walk all over the lonely road. Looking for a substitute, the gloomy wind blows the cold moonlight..."

Along with the singing, the black umbrella placed on the car seat also swayed slightly, seemingly in time with the beat.

"Mr. Li." Liu Zhugan's voice was trembling, "Can you change the song?"

"What?" Li Changan asked knowingly.

"It's so scary." Liu Zhugan's eyes avoided the black umbrella, and the tip of his tongue was trembling.

"Okay." He happily changed the song.

"In July and a half, there is no boundary between life and death. There is a lot of excitement, lonely souls and wild ghosts, Xiao Ruan's life is full of dreams..."

Now, Black Umbrella dances more joyfully, and Liu Zhugan's expression becomes even more miserable. If it was a bitter melon just now, it can be said to be a coptis now.

Fortunately, when the car turned a mountain pass, Li Changan stopped humming because he had arrived at his destination. He stood up and rolled down the window, and a bright light came into his eyes.

It was a gate in the style of an archway, decorated with gorgeous and complicated reliefs and cornices, and lights stretched out behind the gate.

What kind of farmhouse is this? It's clearly a farm.

Li Changan rubbed the stubble on his chin. The price he asked was too low, so he lost money!

………………

After entering the farm, Liu Zhugan led Li Changan into the visitor hall.

Li Changan paid attention to his surroundings along the way. Although the lights were brightly lit everywhere, there was no one around. There were only two reception girls in the huge hall. When the two girls saw Li Changan and the two, their faces were obviously relieved.

"I thought you had gone out of business."

"No, the haunting is only in the back mountain. The front area is fine." Liu Zhugan pointed out the window and whispered.

Li Changan looked in the direction he pointed, and saw the shadowy outlines of buildings hidden in the night in the mountains.

"However." Liu Zhugan's voice changed, "I usually don't dare to open for fear of accidents. Today, I decided to open temporarily in order to receive Mr. Li."

"Receive me?" Li Changan said with a playful smile on his face, "Then the guest has arrived, where is the master?"

"This..." Liu Zhugan was so embarrassed that he couldn't speak.

There was no need for him to say more. When Cao Cao and Cao Cao arrived, two cars parked at the entrance of the hall. Boss Liu got out of the leading car. He glanced at Li Changan and the two people who had been waiting for a long time, but he didn't even stop.

I walked to the second car and greeted an old man and a young man.

Li Changan was a little surprised when he saw the young and old's clothes.

The young and old had their hair tied into a bun and were wearing Taoist robes.

Have you met a colleague?

Including the drivers and bodyguards of the two cars, Boss Liu and his party of five walked into the hall. Liu Zhugan had already walked in, but Boss Liu seemed to have just discovered Li Changan.

"Oh, Mr. Li, you're here too. I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for so long." Boss Liu said he was sorry, but there was no sign of apology on his face. It was obvious that he was just perfunctory.

After saying that, he couldn't wait to retreat to the old Taoist priest and introduced: "You must have heard of this Taoist priest. The sixty-fifth generation successor of Longhu Mountain Tianshi Mansion and the vice president of the Yangcheng Taoist Association, Zhang Suxuan, Taoist Zhang."

Have I heard of it? Li Changan blinked, I really haven’t heard of it!

However, Li Changan also understood why Mr. Liu suddenly changed his face. It turned out that he thought he had found someone more reliable.

Li Changan took a serious look at Taoist Priest Suxuan. He was thin and slender, wearing a white Taoist robe that was slightly blowing in the night wind in the mountains. His silver-white hair was tied up with a wooden hairpin, and his complexion was rosy and healthy.

Look at Li Changan himself, wearing big sandals, jeans and a T-shirt, with a small document package and paper charms slung across his body, a long sword wrapped in a black bag behind him, and a large black umbrella in his hand at an inappropriate time.

Li Chang'an himself is not a serious practitioner, and he cannot see the huge difference between Taoist Su Xuan and his own cultivation level. However, in terms of appearance, it can be said that they are worlds apart!

"Taoist Priest Su Xuan." At this moment, Boss Liu also pointed at Li Changan and introduced, "This is..."

"Incredible, so amazing..." Taoist priest Su Xuan suddenly said.

Boss Liu, who was planning to introduce Li Changan, was suddenly stunned. He asked anxiously: "What's wrong? What's wrong?"

"Look at the trend of the mountains and rivers..." Taoist priest Su Xuan pointed to the back mountain, and his fingers seemed to rise and fall along the mountain. "There are evil spirits hidden in the wind and poison in the water. It's like an evil dragon fighting a hungry tiger!"

Evil hidden in the wind? Poison in the water?

Li Changan didn't understand a word, but this routine...he rubbed his chin...it was very familiar!

"Then...this...what should we do?" Boss Liu was already panicked. He didn't see the philistine shrewdness in front of Li Changan. It seems that appearance and reputation are indeed very important in the profession of magic gun.

"Mr. Liu, don't panic." Taoist Priest Su Xuan reassured him, "The specific situation still needs to be carefully investigated by Pindao at the scene, but judging from the situation described before, the situation has not yet reached an irreversible level."

After hearing these words, Boss Liu's expression brightened slightly. But as soon as he turned his head, Taoist Master Su Xuan ordered his apprentice: "Take down the magic weapon from the car."

"Those magic weapons?"

"all!"

As soon as he finished speaking, both the apprentice and Boss Liu looked bitter.

……………………

"This is it."

Seven people were standing in front of a building with flashlights. This was already the back hill, and buildings and various facilities were still under construction. The street lights had stopped abruptly halfway. The clouds were deep and the moonlight was dim. The group had no choice but to use flashlights in front of the building.

OK.

"This was the first haunted place. At first, the workers heard a woman's voice. I thought it was a female employee slacking here and didn't pay attention. Later, I gradually saw the shadow of a woman at night, and I still

I didn’t pay attention, but later the workers stopped work and said there was a ghost. I didn’t believe it and thought it was a prank, so I led people to guard here at night..." As he said this, Boss Liu started to tremble.

Taoist priest Suxuan walked up to him, stroked Boss Liu's back, and said with a smile: "Mr. Liu, don't be afraid. I think I have some abilities."

Boss Liu nodded gratefully and continued.

"Then, I really encountered..." His voice was dry, "I didn't believe in these things before, but now..."

"It doesn't matter." Taoist Priest Su Xuan said with a smile, "After all, seeing is believing. Let me let the poor Taoist come and meet this evil ghost for a while today."

After saying that, he took the lead and walked into the building. Boss Liu hesitated for a while, then gritted his teeth and followed. Liu Zhugan, the Taoist's apprentice and two bodyguards worked together to lift a cart with a Bagua mirror and peach wood on it.

Magical weapons such as swords were piled up into a hill.

Li Changan, who was last, swept the building with his flashlight.

This is a three-story building. The construction was stopped halfway. The first floor has been paved with tiles and doors and windows have been installed. However, the upper two floors only have empty "skeletons". The night wind shuttles through the "skeletons", leaving a whine.

The sound of wind.

Li Changan took out a yellow talisman from his bag, clasped it in his hand, and stepped in.

As soon as you enter the door, you will see a hall with several flashlights swinging around in the hall.

Li Changan grabbed Liu Zhugan.

"What are you doing?"

"Look for the switch."

Lights have been installed on this floor, and the electricity was specially turned on when we came here. However, no one here is familiar with it, and now they are all hurriedly looking for the switch.

"ah!"

Suddenly, the bodyguard screamed.

Several flashlights suddenly focused their light, illuminating the rough man's face as white as snow.

"Yes, yes, yes..."

His lips were trembling and he couldn't utter the next word. He just pointed his hand in the direction where his flashlight was shining.

All six flashlights turned around.

Suddenly, there was an eerie silence in the room.

On the window, a pale ghost face looked coldly at the people in the house.
