Chapter One Hundred and Sixty-Four: Hometown From Travel
Upon seeing this, Xiao Yu hurriedly stepped forward to help, put Monk Zhiming on the bed, and then began to check. As for the little monk, he had already ran out of the room to report the news.
"Hey...it's really unlucky that another one has left," Taoist Master Shi stood aside and sighed.
Yu Shiqing stood beside the old Taoist and looked at Xiao Yu curiously. At this time, he wanted to ask how Xiao Yu knew that the monk was dead, even his master didn't find out.
At this time, Zhiming's eyes were wide open with anger, and there was still blood in his eyes, as if he had discovered something terrifying. There were two black marks on his arm, which must have been left by something very powerful grabbing his arm.
Seeing the other party like this, Xiao Yu couldn't help but think of the ghost corpse Taoist Master Shi said. The ghost corpse was undoubtedly like a normal person, and it was extremely powerful and extremely fast. Could it be that the ghost corpse had come back to take revenge?
Xiao Yu thought this in his heart, but did not say it out loud, but waited for the monk from the temple to arrive.
The bell rang in the temple, and all the disciples ran towards the main hall at this moment. There, the body of monk Zhiming was placed, and the abbot of the temple stood beside it, muttering something.
"Amitabha, Junior Brother Zhiming has been studying Buddhism all his life, but he did not expect to encounter such a misfortune. If a few Taoist priests had not discovered it, no one would have known about it. I would like to express my thanks to this poor monk."
The old abbot was wearing a red cassock and had an awe-inspiring aura. He stood like a Buddha, making people feel awe.
"The abbot is serious, we just happened by chance." Taoist Master Shi said with a smile, then looked at Xiao Yu and said, "Xiao Yu, if you find anything, just tell me, we are not outsiders here."
When the old abbot saw that Taoist Master Shi recommended Xiao Yu, he hurriedly said, "This young master is very spiritual. He must not be an ordinary person. I wonder if he is a disciple of that mountain sect?"
Xiao Yu smiled, took a step forward and said, "Maoshan disciples are not from that mountain sect."
"Maoshan disappeared for hundreds of years. I also heard that I didn't expect to meet a descendant of Maoshan today. It's such a pleasure to meet him." The old abbot clasped his hands together, making people feel very comfortable and not at all condescending.
Although Buddhism and Taoism are two different systems, they both have the concept of conquering demons and supporting justice. In the context of the great integration of the country, Buddhism and Taoism develop peacefully, support each other, and have close contacts. There is no difference between sects! What's more?
Some would enshrine the statues of Buddha and Taoist immortals in a temple for people to worship.
Xiao Yu pondered for a moment and then said, "I checked Master Zhiming's body before and found that he was killed by some evil thing that sucked away his yang energy. I wonder if Master Zhiming has provoked any evil spirits?"
"Evil?"
The old abbot was stunned for a moment, then his expression changed and he said, "The Taoist priest reminded me that such a thing really happened! Half a year ago, my junior brother came to me and said that he had found the evil spirit that had escaped before, and said that he could use the Buddhist Vajra Seal to defeat the devil. I was
I thought it was just an ordinary evil thing, so I didn't pay much attention to it! It's just that half a month after my junior brother went out, he came back and was seriously injured. Since then, he has been living in seclusion and rarely goes outside."
When the Taoist priest next to him heard this, he immediately said, "Is it a ghost corpse?"
"Well, I heard that it was a ghost corpse. This matter has something to do with the Taoist priest! The ghost corpse that you jointly hunted back then entered a tomb after escaping. There was also an evil ghost and two ghosts in the tomb.
Even if we join forces, my junior brother is no match, so he was seriously injured."
After hearing this, Xiao Yu's eyes lit up and he immediately asked, "Does the abbot know where the cemetery is?"
The old abbot nodded, turned around and walked to the body of Monk Zhiming, as if weighing the pros and cons. After a while, he turned around and looked at Xiao Yu.
"Junior brother often mentions that place. I know a little bit about it! It's in a cemetery near Bailong Village. That cemetery is called the General's Tomb. I heard that a general was buried there. I don't know if it's true or not."
"General's grave?"
Xiao Yu muttered something in a low voice, but he was a little more afraid of the evil ghost in his heart! If there was only one evil ghost, he could still resist it, but now there is another ghost corpse. The ghost corpse was already very difficult to deal with.
Now that you are together with evil spirits, it will be even more difficult to deal with!
The old abbot seemed to have noticed Xiao Yu's worries, and immediately said, "Is the little Taoist priest also here for the general's tomb?"
"The abbot is really discerning. We are looking for an evil ghost this time. It should be the general's grave you mentioned! But now the ghost corpses and ghosts are walking together. It is not easy to deal with them. I wonder what the abbot can do?"
Taoist Master Shi was smiling all over his face at this time. He was not stupid either. The ghost corpse was just taking shape back then. He and the great monk were both able to escape from each other, let alone walking with an evil ghost now! So if we can make him
If you follow the abbot, your chances of winning will be much greater.
"The old abbot has escaped into Buddhism and no longer cares about worldly affairs. I can't help with this matter of conquering demons." The old abbot said with shame, but then he looked at Xiao Yu and said, "This little master
, if you are willing to take this trip, the poor monk is willing to give you a Buddhist treasure, which will be very helpful for you to subdue the zombie monster."
The old abbot is an old man. If his junior brother dies, if he doesn't care about it, others might laugh at him. But he really doesn't have the energy to take care of this matter, so he might as well get some benefits and let Xiao Yu and the others do the trouble himself.
Also trying to be clean.
"Since the abbot has spoken, I will obey your arrangement," Xiao Yu nodded with a smile.
No matter how dangerous this general's tomb is, he must go there. Even if the old abbot doesn't bring out anything, he won't stand idly by.
Moreover, Xiao Yu is very interested in the yin and yang beads in the ghost corpse. If he gets it, it will be very helpful to his cultivation, so he will not let go of this opportunity.
It was already getting late, so Xiao Yu and the others could only stay here for the night. The old abbot also gave Xiao Yu a string of Buddhist beads, saying they were Buddhist treasures. Xiao Yu also discovered that this thing was indeed something extraordinary, as it was full of Buddhist charms.
, and there was a faint spiritual light coming out, looking mysterious and abnormal.
On the afternoon of the next day, Xiao Yu and others finally arrived at their destination, Bailong Village. They had not been back for more than ten years. When they set foot on this land again, Xiao Yu couldn't help but be a little excited. The main streets of the village were still the same, with no changes, but the streets on both sides
The house has changed from the original mud house to red bricks and black tiles. Although the house has changed, Xiao Yu still feels very familiar with the people here.
"Grandpa, I'm back."
Xiao Yu said with a chuckle, and then walked forward, walking along the street, as if reminiscing, but also feeling sad.
Standing in the place where he and his grandfather lived, looking at the red brick house in front of him, Xiao Yu felt that he was back in time, back to the time when he and his grandfather were reading fortunes for others, and everything was clearly visible.
"Next, Li Xiulian".
"Hey, Master Xiao Yu, I'm here."
"Grandpa, if you say you are rich, you are not poor, right? You make so much money and you are reluctant to spend it, so why are you leaving it there? Are you planning to marry me a wife?"
"What do you know, kid? The world is not peaceful. Of course you have to save some money. Don't fight that day. You still want to marry a wife. You are marrying a piece of shit. You won't even have food to eat. Why are you still marrying a wife?"
...........
Just when Xiao Yu was reminiscing about these past events, the originally closed door was suddenly opened, and then a middle-aged man walked out. When the other man saw Xiao Yu, he couldn't help being stunned, and then said, "Little master, who are you looking for?"
?”
When the other party shouted, Xiao Yu woke up immediately, looked up at the man, and then smiled and said, "Uncle Li, I haven't seen you for many years, how are you?"
Xiao Yu knew this man. He was Uncle Li in the village. At that time, Xiao Yu was still young and the man was only in his twenties. Xiao Yu still remembered that he bought a candied haws for himself when he came back. But now, more than ten years later, he
He has grown up, and the other person is middle-aged.
