Lin Xiaodong spread his hands, his big sleeves fluttering, and was enveloped in seven-color brilliance, but it was not taken away by the eight-sided crystal gourd.
Shi Liang's spell didn't respond, he put down the gourd, stared at Lin Xiaodong.
Lin Xiaodong said indifferently: "You and your Taoist brother can meet again in the world of Baoyan Light Lantern."
Throw the Open Sky Seal into the air and hit it on top of Shi Liang.
Shi Liang hurriedly raised the Bafang crystal gourd to shine, and took away the Seal of Opening Heaven.
Shi Liang was about to say something sarcastic, but suddenly he felt a cold feeling in his heart. A hole had already penetrated his heart and dissipated into a wisp of black wind.
Lin Xiaodong took away the souls of Jin Kui, Yu Fei, Shi Liang, Lu Tongfang, and Peng Guwen and disappeared.
On the morning of the second day, Lin Xiaodong arrived at Huailin Mountain.
The gatekeeper disciple came to pay his respects: "Taoist Master Lin is here. Please invite me soon."
Invite people to sit down in the hall.
Not long after, Yang Zhuhan, Meng Anqing, and Xu Ruizhu came in.
Yang Zhuhan asked: "Did Taoist Lin subdue the ghost?"
Lin Xiaodong nodded: "I have sent it to a good place."
Yang Zhuhan sighed: "Taoist Master Lin's Taoist and magical powers are really enviable."
Lin Xiaodong said: "It is a good deed to cure diseases and save people, and to drive away ghosts and evil spirits. If Dr. Zhu encounters similar things again in the future, he can come to Lin."
Say goodbye and go back to the mountain.
On this day, Liu Gui of Zhengtong Bank, Yuan Hong, Fan Chengpei, Hou Zhaoxun, Jia Chen and Huang Nianyan of Cheng Escort Bureau, together transported 500 taels of silver back to Jicheng.
As the carriage arrived at Qingyun Ridge, a gust of red wind suddenly blew, and five people appeared, all dressed in night clothes and wearing masks.
Yuan Hong reacted and shouted: "There is someone!"
Pick up the knife.
The thief said: "I only rob money but not my life. If you don't want to die, just get out of the way!"
Yuan Hong bowed his hands and said: "Yuan Hong from Zhicheng Escort Bureau, the escort is here, please show your respect."
The thief said fiercely: "Stop talking nonsense, get out of here if you don't want to die!"
Yuan Hong waved after hearing this: "Do it!"
Together with Fan Chengpei, Hou Zhaoxun, Jia Chen and Huang Nianyan, they attacked the opposite side.
The thieves also raided the guys and fought with Yuan Hong and others, which made Liu Gui tremble.
All the escorts in the escort agency are very skilled, and the thief is no match for him. He retreated in defeat and surrounded one of them: "Brother, take action quickly!"
Yuan Hong said: "The road is facing the sky, so everyone goes to one side. If we go back to report to the official, you will wait on the ground in Luhun County and it will be difficult to move around."
The eldest brother who was the leader of the thieves slowly stepped forward and said, "If you retreat, you can avoid this physical pain."
Fan Chengpei held the knife and glared: "Come up if you have the guts!"
The thief brother did not take action and took off the oil-paper umbrella he was carrying.
Fan Chengpei was puzzled: "What are you doing?"
Yuan Hong was even more vigilant and shouted: "Run!"
The thief brother opened the umbrella, and flames suddenly burst out, setting Yuan Hong, Fan Cheng, Pei's clothes, hair, and eyebrows on fire. Liu Gui was so frightened that he ran away with his head in his hands.
The thief sneered: "You're asking for trouble!"
He threw away the umbrella and disappeared together with the golden carriage pulled by the man.
Yuan Hong and others were burnt to ashes. After extinguishing the fire, they realized that the gold had been stolen. They all lost their composure and said, "It's broken!"
Liu Gui suddenly collapsed on the ground: "How should I explain to my master?"
At dusk, Liu Gui, Yuan Hong and others returned to Zhengtong Bank empty-handed.
Hu Chen came to greet him. When he saw the posture, his expression changed: "Where is the goods?"
Liu Gui was dejected: "Sir, a group of thieves came. One of them used some magic trick to start a fire. By the time we reacted, the truck pulling the goods was gone!"
When Hu Chen heard this, he looked up, opened his mouth, and staggered two steps: "That's five hundred taels of gold!"
Yuan Hong cupped his hands and tilted his head: "Master Hu, I was the one who failed in my escort, please punish me!"
Hu Chen shook his head: "Do you know who did it?"
Yuan Hong said: "They all wear masks. I don't know who they are, but the person called Big Brother can cast spells."
Hu Chen sighed: "Okay, Master Yuan, you go back first, Liu Gui and I will discuss it later."
Yuan Hong and others returned to the escort office, while Hu Chen and Liu Gui went to the hall.
Hu Chen said: "Fortunately, we transported the two thousand taels of gold in batches. If these were put in one basket, our Zhengtong Bank would be closed!"
Liu Guidao: "The thief knows some Taoism. Why don't you ask Taoist Master Lin to help?"
Hu Chen nodded: "I'll go tomorrow. You can go to Zhengxing Escort Agency instead of Zhicheng Escort Agency."
On the morning of the second day, Hu Chen took a carriage to Qiongchang Mountain.
Lin Xiaodong came to see him: "Member Hu is here."
Hu Chen sighed: "Taoist Master Lin, I have five hundred taels of gold, but others have robbed me of it!"
Lin Xiaodong frowned: "Who is so brave?"
Hu Chen shook his head: "The thieves were all wearing masks, so they couldn't see clearly. The leader knew some magic and set fire to it, and then the carriage disappeared."
After hearing this, Lin Xiaodong said: "This is undoubtedly Taoism. It's unbelievable that after learning Taoism, you still fall into trouble. It's really abominable."
Hu Chen said: "Taoist Lin, my batch of goods contains a total of two thousand taels of gold. I have lost five hundred taels. I dare not transport the rest, so I have to come to you. Please help me. How much does Taoist Lin want to be paid?"
Just ask."
Lin Xiaodong said: "If there are thieves in Luhun County again, Lin will not dare to ignore them."
Hu Chen thanked him profusely and left.
Early the next morning, Lin Xiaodong arrived at Zhengtong Bank. Liu Gui came out and took his hand: "Daozhang Lin, you are here. Five hundred taels of gold were robbed from the bank yesterday!"
Lin Xiaodong nodded: "Hu Yuanwai has already told me about this matter. I am here today specifically for this group of thieves."
Liu Gui took people to the hall and saw Hu Chen.
Hu Chen said: "I have invited the escorts from the Zhengxing Escort Agency to come, and with Taoist Lin accompanying me, there will be nothing wrong with me."
Not long after, Li Zhong from the Zhengxing Escort arrived. He was seven feet tall, dark and fat, with a red face and bright eyes.
Hu Chen and Liu Gui both saluted: "Master Li is here."
Li Zhong spoke, and the tea cup on the table shook: "Don't worry, Mr. Hu, Li will definitely be able to transport the goods back in full!"
Hu Chen stretched out his hand to Lin Xiaodong and said: "Master Li, this is Taoist Lin Xiaodong of Zhixu Temple in Qiongchang Mountain. I specially invited him to go with Master Li."
Li Zhong looked at Lin Xiaodong up and down and asked Hu Chen: "Exceptor Hu, why did you arrange for such a white-faced Taoist to be a burden?"
Hu Chen said hurriedly: "Master Li, Taoist Master Lin is a very human being with great supernatural powers. He has saved the lives of my Hu family many times. He is here just in case."
Li Zhongdao: "With me here, what can happen?"
Liu Guidao said: "Master Li, the gang of thieves who robbed me had a Taoist master who set fire to his umbrella as soon as he opened it. Before I and the escorts from the Zhicheng Escort Agency could react, the carriage and the people were gone."
Li Zhong snorted: "What can those trash from Zhicheng Escort Agency accomplish?"
Liu Guidao: "This Taoist Master Lin also has Taoist skills. He will also be a helper when he encounters those thieves."
Hu Chen said: "Master Li, this batch of goods is really valuable and you should not be careless. Please go with Taoist Lin."
