Outside the ordinary thatched house, a slightly winding dirt road connects to the foot of the mountain. Because few people come here, the originally solid road surface has been invaded by stubborn weeds.

The sun rises three poles high, and the hot sun shines down in the morning, making the mountains full of life in early summer.

"Second brother, I heard that Taoist Master Long in Yizhuang has a straight face all day long, is cold, and is a bit unhuman. We have prepared these two dollars, will he help us?"

The speaker was a man wearing a patched green cloth shorts. He was quite strong, but his exposed skin was extremely dark. He was obviously a farm man who was often exposed and did manual labor.

In front of him was a young man wearing a shabby blue gown and a somewhat bookish look on his body.

This gentleman also has a worried look on his face now.

"Uncle Liu's house was haunted the year before last. Wasn't it Taoist Master Long who saved it? And it only cost him one liter of rice, which is much cheaper than that of Goddess Liu in Wujia Town, thirty miles away."

The strong black man nodded in agreement, and then sighed.

"In recent years, there have been more and more evil people in our village."

The scholar's face showed anger.

"The traitorous party in the DPRK deceived the saints and controlled the country's affairs, so that the officialdom was dark, hungry people were everywhere, and the local area was in chaos. As a result, the dead were countless. In this way, the place was infested with ghosts and demons, and the common people like us suffered a lot. suffering."

The dark, muscular man has never read a book and does not care about national affairs.

"Oh, I don't know when this kind of day will end."

"As long as the emperor is still here, I believe there will be a day when chaos can be brought back to order." The scholar affirmed.

While the two were talking, they had already walked around the foot of the mountain and walked up the dirt road up the mountain, one step deeper and one step shallower.

The mountain is not high, and we reached the top of the mountain in less than half an hour.

Looking at the word 'Yi Zhuang' written in black handwriting on the rough plaque above the wooden door in front of him, with a faint mottled look, the man from Heizhuang showed joy on his face.

"Second brother, we are here."

He quickly grabbed him and said, "Third brother, Taoist Master Long is an outsider and cannot make mistakes."

After that, he sorted out the green gown with three patches piled up, walked to the door, cupped his fists in salute, and said respectfully.

"Liu Shigui of Qinghe Village asks to see Taoist Master Long."

The three huts were quiet and half-silent.

"Second brother, is the Taoist priest not at home?" The strong black man stepped forward and whispered.

Liu Shigui frowned slightly and looked subconsciously into the courtyard.

Just when he was hesitating to go into the yard and call closer, there was a "squeak" and the originally closed wood door opened.

A Taoist priest, about fourteen or fifteen years old, wearing a black Taoist robe and wearing a green gourd, with a cold expression, opened the door and walked out.

This person is the ‘Dragon Emperor’, the incarnation of Xu Junming’s fuya soul.

Following Xu Junming's instructions, he stayed in seclusion in the mountains behind Tianmen Mountain outside Zhongzhou City. Feeling that there were many dead people and ghosts in this mass grave, he built this charity village. While suppressing the place, he also accumulated some merits.

Over the years, although he did not become more prominent, he still accumulated quite a reputation in the surrounding villages and towns.

The number of people who encountered dirty things today and begged him to rescue them became more and more as the situation in Dayong Dynasty became chaotic.

"Second brother, Master Long is so young!" The strong black man said subconsciously.

"It's not surprising that most cultivators are good at keeping their appearance. But when you meet for a while, remember not to be rude."

After saying that, the young scholar quickly passed through the opened courtyard door and came to the courtyard. He walked to a stand three feet away from the Dragon Emperor, rolled up his sleeves and bowed.

"Liu Shigui pays homage to the Taoist priest, Taoist priest Jin An."

"Liu Sanlang pays homage to the Taoist Priest." The strong black man followed Liu Shigui awkwardly and saluted.

After nodding slightly.

"No need to be polite, you came to see Pindao, why are you here?"

"Replying to the Taoist priest, Zhuo Jing returned to her parents' home three days ago. She was a little late when she came home. As a result, she encountered something dirty. She yelled all day long and didn't think about food and drink. She was getting thinner and thinner. Her life was in danger. Liu had no choice but to come here specially. Please, Taoist Priest, come down from the mountain and save the life of my clumsy thorn!"

After speaking, his face looked miserable, with faint tears, as if he was extremely sad.

However, this person's little thoughts cannot be hidden from him. He just wants to spend less money.

The Dragon Emperor didn't take it seriously either, he was just too poor to make a fuss.

"Pindao agreed to what you said."

With a casual wave of their hands, Liu Shigui and Liu Sanlang felt a lightness under their feet, and the wind whistled in their ears. Only when the scenery before them became real and their feet stepped firmly again did they realize that they had arrived at the entrance of the village.

Looking at the familiar village in front of them, the two of them wiped their eyes vigorously in disbelief. After repeated confirmation, their mouths opened in unison.

Seeing that the Dragon Emperor had already walked along the road into the village, the two of them came to their senses and quickly caught up with him.

"The Taoist Master really has magical powers."

After looking at him, the Dragon Emperor stretched out his hand.

"Is that your home?"

Looking in the direction of his finger, Liu Shigui shook his head.

"No, that is the family of Liu Xian, the head of the village."

The Dragon Emperor frowned slightly. Just now he activated the bronze mirror phantom in his dantian, and the Liu Xian family was enveloped by a strong ghostly aura.

"It turns out it's a ghost. Let's pick it up again when we get back."

Without stopping, the group of three people soon arrived at the entrance of the village.

Several village elders were sitting under a large locust tree at the entrance of the village, enjoying the cool air and looking after their children. Seeing the three people coming, they all looked over in unison.

The village is so big, news like Liu Shigui's mother-in-law having an affair is earth-shattering, and the whole village has long been aware of it.

Now that they have invited the Taoist priest back, their purpose is self-evident.

"This Taoist Priest looks young, younger than my eldest grandson. Is he really capable of getting rid of evil spirits?" A skinny old man with most of his teeth missing said.

"As the old saying goes, you shouldn't judge a person by his appearance. Maybe this young man really has great abilities."

The speaker was an old woman with a flat mouth.

"If you have a hairless mouth, you can't do things well. I think this is... Xuan!"

A short, fat old man stretched out his hand to wipe away the snot from his grandson's mouth. He wiped his feet on the dirty soles of his shoes, clapped his hands and interjected nonchalantly.

The skinny old man rolled his eyes.

"Why don't we follow up and take a look?"

The two old guys next to them suddenly moved. There was nothing going on here anyway, so they might as well go over and have a look.

Soon, the three old guys and two children followed Xu Junming and the others, walking towards the village.

Moreover, as more and more people saw Liu Xiangui, the crowd of spectators quickly grew.

The Dragon Emperor didn't care either. This world was originally an era of demons and monsters. Even the lowest level people knew about the cultivation of immortals and Buddhas, so there was no need to hide it.

"Is this the Liu Xian family?"

The Dragon Emperor pointed to the green brick house next to him. It could be seen that as the head of a village, the Liu Xian family's wealth was obviously higher than that of his brothers from the same clan who lived in thatched houses next to them.

"Exactly."

Liu Xiangui nodded quickly.

"It's true that Liu Xianshi keeps the door closed in broad daylight, for fear of others stealing his things or something?" Liu Sanlang muttered.

There is no lack of envy in the words.

He does have reason to be envious. To ordinary villagers, the allure of a brick house is comparable to that of a Chinese garden villa in the 21st century and a young man moving bricks.

However, the door of Liu Xian's family was locked not because he cherished money, but because there was a ghost living in his house.

Moreover, he is also a fierce ghost in the late stage of Golden Core.

After looking at it twice, the Dragon Emperor did not immediately remove it.

A small village with only two to three hundred people actually had a golden elixir-level ghost come to it. This fact itself was very strange.

"Let's settle the affairs of Liu Xiangui's family first, and then we can catch this evil spirit and go back to make some trouble."

Under the leadership of Liu Xiangui, the group quickly arrived at a courtyard on the east side of the village.

In this Dayong Dynasty, which was very similar to ancient China, those who could afford to read had relatively well-off families.

The same is obviously true for Liu Xiangui's family.

Although it is not as deep as the courtyard of the Liu Xian family, it is still a well-to-do family built with blue bricks, rammed earth as the courtyard wall, and two thick wooden doors dividing the inside and outside.

"Taoist Master, this is my home."

He quickly opened the iron rope on the door, pushed open the courtyard door, and let the Dragon Emperor walk in.

I turned around and was about to close the door, but the crowd of spectators snowballed and swelled more than ten times. How could I let it go?

The two sides quarreled for a while, but Liu Xiangui couldn't stop so many people, and was afraid of making the Taoist priest wait too long, so he had no choice but to give up.

Bypassing the already mottled screen wall, there are some dug wild vegetables drying in the relatively clean yard, but because they have not been cleaned for many days, a lot of dust has accumulated on them.

Hearing the noise, an old man wearing a gray cloth came out of the main room holding two children, one large and one small.

After glancing at Xu Junming first, his eyes turned to Liu Xiangui, and the meaning of the inquiry was self-evident.

"Dad, this is Taoist Master Long who I invited back from the Heavenly Gate."

"Well done, old layman." The Dragon Emperor saluted him.

"Hello, Chief Taoist!"

The old man hurriedly returned the gift.

Then he waved, pulled his son over and whispered.

"Taoist Master Long is so young, can he really get rid of the evil spirits in Xiufang?"

"Dad, don't worry, Taoist Master Long is a man of real ability."

After experiencing the fact that he arrived at the village entrance from Tianmen Mountain dozens of miles away in an instant, Liu Xiangui was convinced of Dragon Emperor's abilities.

Seeing that his son was full of confidence, although the old man was a little suspicious, he didn't ask any more questions.

"Taoist Priest, my thorn is in the left wing."

With that said, Liu Xiangui took Xu Junming towards the side room on the left side of the main room.

Before he could walk in, a woman's voice could be heard inside.

Open the door and go in. In a room of about thirty square meters, there is a bed placed in the back, surrounded by a few old chairs and some sundries.

On that bed, a woman was tied tightly with a rope and a coarse cloth was stuffed in her mouth. If you didn't know better, you would have thought it was a woman bought from there who specialized in giving birth to babies.

Liu Xiangui was also afraid that the Dragon Emperor would misunderstand, so he quickly explained.

"Taoist Priest, I had no other choice, so I came up with this trick. As soon as I let her go, she would either jump or make a fuss, which would make the whole family uneasy."

After saying that, a look of dejection appeared on his face.
