Liaozhai Great Sage

"The young master finished martial arts and went down the mountain? Is this going back to the house?"
As soon as he entered the village, a villager named Liu Laogen greeted him warmly and respectfully.
"Exactly, I went back to the mansion to study essays today. By the way, last time I went down the mountain, I brought back a pile of dirty clothes. Who helped me wash them? After washing them, I will send them over as soon as possible. Don't delay." Li Xiuyuan said.
Liu Laogen said; "Last time it was Widow Du in the village who helped the young master wash his clothes. I saw her washing clothes by the river this morning. I guess she can dry them well today. I'll go and urge Widow Du right now. "
"No hurry, I'm going back to the mansion for ten days, and it's enough to send it up the mountain within these ten days." Li Xiuyuan said.
"It's still the young master who is kind."
A woman passing by heard her complimented with a smile: "Washing the clothes for the young master for a month is worth doing embroidery for three months. Next time, the young master will also take care of me."
Liu Laogen said: "Go, go, Aunt Wang, what are you messing around with? I really think that the young master lacks a servant who can wash clothes. It's not that the young master is kind-hearted. He wants to take care of a few families in the village who are living in difficulties. Your Wang family can't help it." Life is not difficult, if you rob other people's jobs, you will make Widow Du and several other villagers unable to survive, let's see if you have any face."
"I'm just saying, just talking." Aunt Wang said with a sneer.
"It's not good, it's not good, Widow Du who was washing clothes by the river was kidnapped by a mandrill."
At this time, a young woman fled towards the village while exclaiming.
Chapter 3 Mandrill kidnaps people.
"What, mandrill?"
Liu Laogen and Aunt Wang were shocked immediately, and fear appeared on their faces instantly.
Li Xiuyuan, who happened to hear the news, frowned, showing a trace of dignity.
He has lived in Guobei County for more than ten years. Although he often listened to the cheap master talking about all kinds of ghosts and ghosts, he has never encountered any ghosts, which made him doubt whether he came to Taoism or demons. In the world of Liaozhai, I didn't expect to be lucky today, and heard the existence of mandrill.
The mandrill, Li Xiuyuan learned from the cheap master, is a kind of ape that has become refined in the mountains.
Because apes are naturally active and full of wildness, once this beast becomes smart and wise, it will probably do a lot of evil and harm one party, and the folks call this spirit monster that harms one party a mandrill, and its status is equivalent to that of a ghost in the grave.
It's no wonder that the faces of the villagers changed drastically when they heard the news of the mandrill, with frightened eyes.
The village woman ran back to the village as if fleeing for her life, not even caring about the laundry by the river, but at this moment Li Xiuyuan strode up to meet her and stopped her.
"Mandrill? What's going on here, please tell me in detail." Li Xiuyuan asked calmly.
Perhaps Li Xiuyuan's composure infected the village woman. She took a breath and said with some lingering fear: "Master, young master, just now I was washing clothes by the river with other women in the village, and suddenly I rushed out of the forest by the river. A monster with a face like an evil ghost took away Widow Du in a single stroke. It must be the mandrill. The Wang family’s daughter-in-law, who was newly married to Xiahe Village more than ten years ago, was taken away by the mandrill... ..."
Having said that, the village woman looked at Aunt Wang next to her.
Aunt Wang's face became more and more frightened, because the Wang family's daughter-in-law who was kidnapped more than ten years ago was his husband's first wife, and she married into the Wang family only because of this incident.
"That's it..."
Li Xiuyuan frowned. It seemed that the villagers were also frightened by the situation at that time, and they knew only one-sided things.
I don't even know if it's a mandrill or not.
"I can't ignore the serious matter of mandrill abduction. I'll go to the river to see the situation. Liu Laogen, go up the mountain and inform my master about it. Aunt Wang, go and inform the village head about it. Let the village head tell the people around the village. Call them all back, try not to go out, maybe the mandrill is still wandering around here and has not gone far."
Li Xiuyuan ordered, and at the same time, he was carrying the golden gun and preparing to go to the river to see the situation.
Liu Laogen hurriedly said: "Master, that's a mandrill, if it encounters a mandrill, I'm afraid it will kill someone, so I'd better not go there, Master."
"It's okay, just do as I tell you. It's just a beast designed to take women away. If you encounter it, you'll kill it."
Li Xiuyuan strode away without saying a word.
He has practiced martial arts with cheap master for so many years, and he also hates those gods, gods and ghosts who harm one side very much, if he encounters them today, he will not give up.
Even if it's a little dangerous, it's nothing. The master said that his martial arts lack of experience, if he has some experience, he will definitely become a martial arts master. It's better to hit the sun than to choose a day, and the experience is today.
Li Xiuyuan is the young master of the Li family, and the villagers in Xiahe Village are all farm laborers of the Li family. His words are like orders, and these honest villagers have to obey them honestly, but Liu Laogen is also worried about him as the young master. He was killed by a mandrill, and he ran towards the Taoist temple on the mountain immediately after he left. In the eyes of these villagers, Li Xiuyuan's master, the blind Taoist, is a godly figure with Taoism, and he must solve this problem.
"Isn't that Young Master? Young Master, hurry up, a mandrill appeared by the river and took Widow Du captive. Don't go to the river right now."
On the way, another villager who fled back was stunned for a moment after seeing Li Xiuyuan, and then hurriedly shouted.
Li Xiuyuan did not respond, and still strode towards the river.
After the villager yelled kindly, he stopped persuading him and left as if fleeing.
"Young master, don't go there. I heard that a mandrill will kill people, so please stay away from there quickly. Let's go."
Another farmer, who seemed to have heard the news about the mandrill, also ran towards the village as if fleeing, and shouted hurriedly when he saw Li Xiuyuan.
Li Xiuyuan smiled and said, "If the mandrill was so powerful, it would have rushed into the village long ago, so why stealthily abduct people."
The three became tigers, those villagers who were by the river were scared away, and those who were not by the river were also scared away, but the more this happened, the more interested he was in that mandrill.
He quickened his pace, and he came to the river in a short while. The river was not big, only about three feet wide, and there were large pebbles all over the river. There were a lot of unwashed clothes scattered on these stones. The village woman who ran was left behind.
On the other side of the river, in the shade near the woods, there is a basin of clothes that are about to be washed among a few pebbles. The clothes are brightly colored, and they are all brocade, which is completely different from the burlap clothes of other villagers. Needless to say, these clothes are It was the dirty clothes that Li Xiuyuan invited the villagers of Xiahe Village to wash.
"Don't even dare to cross the river bank, this mandrill is really careful enough, the more so, the more it proves that even if the beast becomes a spirit, its morality will never be too high." Li Xiuyuan secretly said.
If it was really a spirit with profound Taoism, it would have turned into a human body and hibernated into the county town long ago. Didn't the thousand-year-old centipede spirit in the Liaozhai movie turned into a national teacher and teased the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty?
"Look over there."
Li Xiuyuan looked at the scattered huge footprints beside the river, which didn't look like human beings, and disappeared into the forest along the river.
He was also not afraid, and strode into the forest with a golden gun in his hand.
The mountain forest next to Xiahe Village is not a deep mountain forest. Usually, there are villagers going up the mountain to hunt and chop firewood, and the mountain forest is not big. It stands to reason that such a place would not be able to give birth to spirit monsters. Who would have thought that a dozen years ago A mandrill appeared here, and I had never heard of it.
Li Xiuyuan thought to himself.
In fact, what he doesn't know is that the villagers here are not as good as people in the 21st century. They like to make the big things known to everyone.
Just like the people in Guobei County in the movie, they knew that the female ghost of Lanruo Temple had killed them, but they all kept it from outside Ning Caichen.
"The footprints are lost, did the mandrill climb a tree?"
Suddenly, after tracking for a while, Li Xiuyuan immediately lost the mandrill's footprints.
Although this is not an ancient forest deep in the mountains, the ancient environment is too natural. A small forest is covered by trees and dense vegetation, making it difficult to track.
"Look around and see if you can find any clues."
Li Xiuyuan did not give up, he was not worried about encountering any ghosts in the forest, because the cheap master said that he had a seven-orifice exquisite heart, although the ghosts wanted to eat him, they were also afraid of him, as long as he was careful about the monsters in the forest. Beasts, poisonous snakes will not be dangerous.
After searching for a while, he suddenly saw a small piece of red cloth hanging on a small tree. He took it off and saw that the red cloth was very new, as if it had been torn off not long ago.
