Chapter Thirteen: Visit the City Lord.
When I asked Song Qi to stay at home, I calculated that it was half a lucky day today, and that was good and bad. With enough talisman paper, I went to the residence of Yuanwai of Benluo.
As a wealthy family in the city, you only need to find a street vendor to ask about the location of Luo Yuanwai’s mansion and know that we live in the east of the city, while Luo Yuanwai’s mansion is located in the southeast of the city, and it is only separated from our small courtyard by two rows of houses. This made me think that fate is destined to be true, and it is impossible to avoid it.
I didn't worry too much, so I came to the door with a yellow cloth bag. Although Mr. Luo was the richest mansion in the city, his mansion was not luxurious or luxurious. It was built very simply. There was a huge pine tree at the door, and the door was not guarded by the door. Unlike some wealthy families who only needed five or six servants to guard the door.
He walked up and knocked on the lion's head door knocker, making a dull blow. An old age sound immediately came from the door.
"Here, come,"
The door slowly opened, and an old man poked his head out, glanced at me with no turbidity at all. He looked at me wearing a monk's robe and begged for me, so he immediately said.
"Master, please wait a moment. I will go into the house and get some silver for you!"
"Old donor, I didn't come here because of begging for alms!"
"Oh? I don't know why the master came?"
He paused his body into the house, then turned around and asked in confusion. He always kept a distance of one meter from me, neither humble nor arrogant, and at first glance he was a well-educated person.
"I'm here today, just want to ask Yuanwai Luo to help!"
"Our master? Why did the master look for the master?"
He asked, his eyes emitting a little bit of defense. After all, a monk came to the house not to beg for alms. It was probably because the owner had some disaster or had ulterior motives. It was fake for a big family like them to say that they had no enemies.
"You just need to go in and tell your master just by saying that, it's time for the old donor."
"Okay, I'll go in and report to the master, Master, please wait a moment."
After saying that, I closed the door and went into the house. Although the door was just closed, I was very curious about it. However, when entering the house, I must keep my hands and feet. If I don’t invite myself and lose my etiquette, I will make people suspicious for nothing!
After waiting for a long time, Mr. Luo hurried out and opened the door himself. As soon as he saw me, he immediately came up to hold my hand and said in surprise.
"Master, you left angrily this morning, so I am really ashamed!"
"No need to say that to the donor. It was because I just entered the world and believed the bad guy's words, so I wrongly accused the donor. It was me who should apologize!"
"Where, where?" Mr. Luo quickly waved his hand, then pulled me into the house.
"The master cannot say that. He is not in good health. He also hopes that the master will stay in the humble house for a few days and let Mr. Luo express his feelings!"
"Donor, I came to you with a problem today. I will be spared if I stayed at you for a small stay. It is of great importance, so I hope the donor will forgive you."
"Oh?" Mr. Luo exclaimed in surprise, stopped to look at me, and then asked, "I don't know why the master is so upset?"
"Donor, I wonder how many people have died in this city inexplicably?"
"This, Master, now seven people have died inexplicably in the city, but the city lord's mansion cannot find out the reason, so he has to press it down. Could it be that Master thinks there is something strange about this matter?"
"It's not just something strange, but something is a big deal. I'm afraid that something in this city has become a spirit."
I said something, and at that time, Mr. Luo and the old man turned pale and took a breath of air conditioning.
"Master, is it a child's business?"
"Lingzi's affairs are accusing ghosts and have nothing to do with this matter. However, if the evil spirit in the city is successful in cultivation, then the city may encounter a disaster."
"What solution does the master have? I will report to the city lord and let him investigate the matter thoroughly!"
"It's hard to say more to you now. Now I'm helping me enter the City Lord's Mansion, because I just saw a corpse that should have been transported to the City Lord's Mansion. It was stained with evil spirits. I'm afraid that it will cause trouble if I release it for a long time."
"Uncle Fu, hurry up and prepare the carriage. Let's go to the city lord's mansion now!"
Mr. Luo immediately ordered, and the old man responded and hurriedly went down to prepare. Mr. Luo took me out of the mansion and hurriedly walked out of the man's man's carriage at the door.
Soon the old man grabbed a carriage that was so simple that it could not be more simple and walked out of the side door. Mr. Luo immediately called me and got in the car, driving all the way to the city lord's mansion.
"Master, what are strange spirits? There are really ghosts and monsters in the world?" Mr. Luo asked on the carriage.
"There is no matter whether there is or not. If there is or not, there is no. Some people will never meet once in their lifetime, while others will be common because they are born with yin and yang eyes and are common. The so-called strange spirit is a kind of spiritual body that possesses plants or people. When the spiritual body is cultivated and formed, it will be called strange, so it is called strange spirit!"
"So which kind of strange spirits in the city belongs to?"
"I don't know this yet. I have to check it out before I can figure it out, but it must have been formed, otherwise it would not have absorbed the human essence so clean. What I am afraid of now is that it can exist independently from the body. Such a strange spirit will be difficult to easily destroy it!"
"That master is..."
"Stop,"
I shouted, Uncle Fu heard what I said, and quickly grabbed the carriage. I jumped out of the carriage quickly, and a huge tree suddenly came into my eyes.
"Master, what's wrong?" Mr. Luo glanced at the direction I was looking at and said with a puzzled look on his face.
"That tree is so resentful!"
"Resentment? Mobilize the city tree?"
“How long has it been?”
"It's almost three hundred years old. It has existed since my great-grandfather's generation. The city lord's mansion has been built next to it in all dynasties. Although the city lord's mansion has been renovated, there is still no address."
"The huge resentment covers the tree. What can you do to get the city lord out? Let's talk outside."
I asked Mr. Luo that the place where the strange spirit borrowed it was actually an ancient tree. If I went in rashly now, I would have a chance to go without going back. After all, within its scope, it was his understanding. Once such a big tree moves, it would be so earth-shaking.
"That's easy to deal with, but the weather is too late now, so the city lord may not be able to come out!"
"It's okay, it's okay to see you tomorrow. Today I'll try the waters first and see how capable this tree is. You guys back down."
After hearing what I said, Mr. Luo and Uncle Fu stepped back involuntarily. When they retreated fifty meters behind me, I took out a handful of talisman paper and then used four small pieces of peach wood to form a square shape!
"The four directions are the skull, the talisman is the force, the spirit is the skull, and the blood is the formation, the north, south, east, west, and the four symbols are trapped. Start!"
With a light roar from my voice, the four images in front of me suddenly shone brightly. A golden light slowly flew out of the four images formation and then headed straight for the ancient tree. As soon as the material was halfway through, a black shadow quickly hit the light, and I immediately pinched a magic finger.
"change!"
The light narrowly avoided the black shadow, but before I could come, I suddenly felt the ground trembling, and a black shadow suddenly flew out from the ground and headed straight for me. When I looked at it, it turned out to be a huge tree root.
"Thunder Talisman, Heavenly Thunder Induction"
I threw out a piece of talisman paper, and then slashed out of thin air with lightning, directly splitting the tree root into two sections. The tree roots quickly disappeared after falling to the ground, and then a black shadow flew over. I immediately retreated, avoiding the attack of the tree roots, while controlling the light to fly towards the ancient tree.
When I left the roots of the tree, I saw that the light was about to hit the ancient tree, and I saw a charming figure slowly solidifying from the ancient tree. I pinched the light, and then my eyes became cold in the air. A spear suddenly solidified in my hand, and I threw it straight down at me.
The spear was inserted half a step away from me, and the solid stone slab was broken in an instant, which scared me so much that I quickly took a step back. When I looked up, she saw her green eyebrows jumping gently, and once again solidifying a spear. However, this time she did not throw it out, but made a spear throwing action, then smiled contemptuously and slowly disappeared in front of the ancient tree.
