"This tree looks like it's been hundreds of years!"

Luo Qian came to the tree and looked up at the canopy.

"I don't know, but it should be the same."

Wu You shook his head and walked back and forth around the tree trunk.

"Master Wu, what are you doing?"

Luo Qian saw this and said in confusion.

"Do you know why locust trees are planted in temples?"

Wu You stopped, turned his head and looked at Luo Qian.

"Locust trees have the meaning of longevity and blessings, and good luck. The temple should plant this for good luck."

Luo Qian frowned, not knowing why the other party suddenly asked about this, but he still thought.

"The locust tree has indeed said this since ancient times, but in Feng Shui, the locust tree belongs to Yin and has a good nourishing effect on ghosts."

Wu You nodded and said, "Therefore, the locust tree often attracts the surrounding ghosts, and over time, a ghost creature will form here!"

"What?!"

Luo Qian was shocked and figured out the meaning of the other party's words, "What the master means is that there is a ghost hidden in the locust tree in front of him, which is the source of the supernatural incident in Qingshan Temple!"

He used his light skills to retreat dozens of meters away, drew out the long sword from his waist, and the silver-white sword body shone coldly in the sunlight.

Luo Qian looked at the huge locust tree opposite with a serious expression.

"What are you doing?"

Wu You looked at Luo Qian opposite him with a confused look.

"I'm guarding against this ghost tree!"

Luo Qian said with a serious expression: "Master, come here too quickly, so as not to be hurt by the ghosts in it."

When Wu You heard this, his expression became more confused, "When did I say there was a ghost inside?"

Luo Qian's eyes widened, "Then you just said that the locust tree has the effect of gathering ghosts."

"The locust tree does have the effect of gathering ghosts, but I didn't say there are ghosts hidden in it."

Wu You was speechless, "What's more, now in broad daylight, will it dare to show up even if there is a ghost?"

“That’s right.”

Luo Qian silently took back the sword and came to Wu You, "Then what are you doing?"

"It's okay, just take a look."

Wu You shook his head, then turned around and left the temple.

They want to build an altar before dark, or they can only come back tomorrow.

Wu You chose the altar location not in the temple. He was worried that the temple was a ghost territory, so he encountered an accident during his practice.

After some busy schedule, a simple altar was finally built.

Wu You was wearing a floral robes, sitting cross-legged on the cushion, with magic swords, Sanqing bells, Zhentan wood, Yinpan, Chaoshu, Five-colored Order Flag, Wood Fish, Tianpeng Ruler, Token, Jade Bottle, etc. in front of him.

Around the altar, four disciples of Wu You were wearing robes and holding magic swords in all directions.

Luo Qian and a group of soldiers, the Gu Mansion guards also changed their makeup at this time, wearing armor and wearing a dictatorial flag on their backs, and dressed up as Taoist guardians and magic weapons.

When the sun sets in the sky, the snow-white moon appears.

On the altar, Wu You, who had been meditating, suddenly opened his eyes.

"The sky has eyes, and the heavenly court will see it clearly! Today, Yunluo's disciple Wu You practiced here to subdue ghosts and resolve the sufferings of one side! Please help me!"

Wu You immediately stood up, picked up the magic sword, and a little talisman paper on the sword body, shaking gently, and the talisman paper spontaneously ignited without fire.

He muttered something and bowed three times to the east.

Then he stood up with a serious expression, "Open the hall!"

A light shout echoed in the uninhabited mountains.

As Wu You began to practice, a strong wind blew around the altar and the leaves rustled.

The torches around them were unstable and shaking violently, as if they would be extinguished in the next moment.

Luo Qian held the long sword in his hand, his eyes were alert and his expression was extremely solemn.

"A bold evil spirit, haven't appeared yet!"

Wu You opened his eyes and glared in a certain direction, and a loud shout seemed to be thunder.

...

Ning Xuan was very efficient in his work and had results on the third day after Li Yu issued his mission.

In the Li family's living room, three young men in plain clothes sat on the chair with a somewhat restrained expression.

Mr. Ning, who brought them to the house at this moment, was not there, except for a few servants from the Li family.

The three scholars were all quite nervous and introduced each other while no one came.

"In the next Zhouqing, I will meet two brothers in Zhoujia Village, Wuling."

"Wu Xuechen, from Zhangjia Village, Wuling, has met two."

"In Xia He Jin, a native of Baihe Village, Wuling, I have met two brothers."

The three of them are almost the same age as they are about twenty years old.

Among them, Zhou Qing has the most handsome appearance and a slender figure. Although she is simple and white in clothes, she still looks calm.

Wu Xuechen is mature and serious, and has said something from the moment he entered the door.

He Jin is the youngest and most nervous among the three.

His average appearance and his youngest age meant the least reading.

There is no advantage over the other two.

This time, the young master of the Li family recruited a teacher. The salary was very generous and he could get five taels of silver a month.

In order to support him in his studies, his family has long been penniless.

Now my mother relies on her family alone, and she earns some money to help others wash clothes to subsidize the family income.

As for himself, although he also helped others copy books, the money he earned was spent on pen and ink.

Life at home is very difficult. My mother didn't dare to take medicine when she was sick. As she delayed, her physical condition has gotten worse every day.

Although he didn't say it, he felt extremely painful.

So yesterday when Mr. Ning sent someone to find him, he heard that he would take care of food every day and still have five or two months of money to get it.

He agreed without thinking.

But he didn't expect that there were two people who had the same purpose as his.

This puts a lot of pressure on him.

On the other side, Li Yu sat in the next room.

He could see all the actions of the three people next to him through the dark window.

As for the exchanges between the three, there are also reports from servants.

"He Jin, 23 years old this year, is a scholar, from Baihe Village, Wuling. He has a mother in her family, has a disease, is a good person and has a sense of justice."

Li Yu looked at the information of the three of them and nodded slightly in his heart.

At the age of twenty-three, the scholar shows that he has certain knowledge and ability and good talent.

The locals, whose mother is sick, means they are worried, lack money, and are easy to control.

A good character and righteousness mean that he is bright in his mind and will not do anything that violates the law and morality.

After all, Li Yu didn't want to recruit an ungrateful and dark-minded person to come in.

The other two people have almost the same information, and their knowledge, character and family have met the standards.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "The three of them can stay, but they still need to be investigated."

Having knowledge does not mean you can teach.

Whether the three of them can stay in the future needs to be observed.

Li Yu looked up and looked at the side.

My brother-in-law Ning Xuan has put down the book in his hand.

"After reading it? How do you feel?"

Ning Xuan heard this and said in surprise: "Brother-in-law, you wrote this book very detailed, and every inference is reasonable and well-founded."

"Especially, there are many taboos for catching ghosts and ways to deal with ghosts. Even ordinary people can do it."
