Liaozhai Great Sage

"It's not that Lei Gong didn't notice it, it's that there is no demonic aura on this paper crane. Lei Gong is most sensitive to demonic and ghostly aura. If there is no demonic or ghostly aura, if it's just an ordinary paper crane flying over, it won't attract Leigong's attention. , did the person who cast the spell even consider this? Or is it that her practice has reached an extremely high level, and even her own evil spirit can fade away?"

Li Xiuyuan looked at the big red rooster wandering in the yard, and thought for a while.

Follow the trail of the paper crane and investigate all the way.

Li Xiuyuan saw the origami crane wandering around the capital for several times, flying chaotically, sometimes landed on someone's courtyard, sometimes landed on the roof of a temple, and sometimes landed on the eaves of ordinary people's houses.

He knew that Zhihe did this on purpose.

The more complicated the whereabouts, the more difficult it would be for a cultivator to calculate them using the method of reckoning. It can be said that traces like paper cranes cannot be calculated at all.

Because there are so many things involved.

For example, the courtyard of a certain family is the residence of a high-ranking court official. Isn't it difficult for you to calculate?

Another example is the roof of the temple. There may be gods and Buddhas there. If you calculate that the gods and Buddhas are not causing trouble for yourself?

But there is always a source for this paper crane.

Finally, when the picture stopped, Li Xiuyuan saw a painting boat moored on the river appear there.

This painted boat is one of the many painted boats on the river, and there is nothing special about it.

But there was a paper crane flying out of the window of the painting boat, and then there was another evil spirit rushing away. Li Xiuyuan recognized that evil spirit as the clone of the lotus essence.

"There must be a master of the Wutong Sect in the boat, and the lotus essence went to that person for help, but the mirror is not omnipotent, so I can't see the scene in the cabin..." Li Xiuyuan lost his clue when he searched here.

He knew that the thieves were so cautious, so it was obvious that they would not show up easily if asked by Zhihe to investigate.

And the spell was broken in the night, and the expert who came to the Wutong Sect also knew his own ability.

It is estimated that the idea of ​​​​giving up the lotus essence has already been given up.

"If I go to Huachuan to look for people now, I probably won't find anything. I've already scared the snake, and it's a waste of time to go any further." Li Xiuyuan shook his head and decided not to think about the Wutong Sect.

If this sect is really entrenched in the capital, it will still show its feet.

As for the lotus essence, continue fishing here.

See how many thieves are still biting the hook.

"Eldest young master, are you awake? The young one just has something to report." At this time, a voice sounded from the gate of the courtyard, interrupting Li Xiuyuan's thoughts.

Li Xiuyuan looked away from the white lotus in the water tank: "It's Han Meng, what's the matter?"

"A young man from a rich family came to the Escort Bureau and said he wanted to visit the Eldest Young Master. He heard from Sha Jin that the man was Du Wen, and he was a well-known yamen in the capital. The head of the Escort who went out with the Eldest Young Master last time was worried that this man was here to cause trouble. I dare not be careless, so I came here to report to the young master." Han Meng said.

Du Wen?

Li Xiuyuan thought of the dandy student who was frightened by the goblin yesterday, and said with a smile: "Just treat him as looking for trouble, but it's okay, he's just a dandy student, so don't take it too seriously, but I really have to show my face about it." , we can't let this place be constantly disturbed by this dude."

now.

Inside the lobby of the Escort.

Du Wen was no longer as frightened as yesterday, and returned to his usual posture. He sat there drinking tea, and tilted his head to look at the escorts inside and outside.

"It's really easy for me to find. I didn't expect that Li Xiuyuan would live in the bodyguard bureau. It's no wonder that none of the people under my command are useless. It took me a long time to find out a little bit of information."

Although his face was calm, his heart was a little impatient.

Picking up the teacup and taking a sip, Du Wen hastily said, "Don't you have a tea-making servant here? How do you drink the hot tea? Hurry up and change it."

The head of a bodyguard's face darkened, but he didn't want to offend the yamen servant. After all, his master hadn't come yet, so he said, "I made this tea. I'm a rough man, and I don't know how to do such fine work. Why should I invite this yamen servant?" Forgive me, young master, I will replace the younger one for young master."

After speaking, he took some tea and left.

But he didn't go to the back kitchen, he just walked around outside, spat a few mouthfuls of saliva on the tea, then stirred it up with his fingers and brought it back.

After Du Wen took it, he took a sip and said with satisfaction: "This is about the same hot and cold, but the tea is not as good, not as good as the tribute tea from my house."

The escort leader looked at his nose, nose, nose, and heart, but he didn't answer. He only saw Du Wen eating his own saliva and felt happy in his heart.

After a while, Li Xiuyuan strode in.

"It's Du Wen, Mr. Du? I just met yesterday. Why is Mr. Du so anxious to visit today? Is there something you want to ask me for advice? Although I have a visitor, I should be happy, but Today I can’t be happy no matter what, please tell me, Mr. Du Wen, what’s going on here?”

His attitude was not friendly.

After all, Du Wen had a bad attitude towards him before.

Du Wendao: "Mr. Li, what happened last time was something I offended, but you also threw me a little bit. This matter should be evened out. We are all scholars, so we should be more open-minded. We shouldn't put some small frictions on the table. In your heart, don’t you care about everything?”

Li Xiuyuan was surprised and said: "So Mr. Du is here to plead guilty and make an apology?"

Du Wen said with a serious face: "The last time between you and me has been evened out. I'm not here to plead guilty. I'm here to learn from you the spells of catching ghosts and eliminating demons. I hope you can teach me."

Teach you to catch ghosts and eliminate demons?

Li Xiuyuan was stunned for a moment, and finally smiled dumbly: "I can't teach you, and I don't know how to teach, and I don't want to teach. If Mr. Du has nothing to do, please go back. I'm embarrassed to speak bad words to you when you visit today. I thought my family was not polite enough to make people laugh, so please don't make things difficult for me, Mr. Du."

This Du Wen is really whimsical.

Yesterday I saw myself casting spells, but today I came to ask myself to teach him spells.

Who does he think he is?

If you want to learn, do you have to teach yourself?

And I don't think about myself, if I can learn this spell easily, what's the matter with me that day?

There are masters who can cast spells everywhere, and there are no ghosts and spirits making trouble.

Du Wen didn't leave in a fit of anger, but stood up and said, "Li Xiuyuan, I know you don't want to teach me, so I thought of a way. I'll buy a spell from you, teach me a spell, and I'll give it to you." 1000 taels, if you teach me two spells, I will give you 2000 taels...Come here, bring the silver in."

After speaking, he called out.

Immediately, several servants brought in a box.

The box was opened, and it was full of white silver.

"This is 1 taels of silver. If it's fake, I only need ten spells." Du Wen said quite complacently, pointing to a box of silver.

In his opinion, there is no one in this world who cannot be moved by 1 taels of silver.

Even if he went to the temple to burn incense, and he gave dozens of taels of silver to him, why don't he obediently give the incense to himself?

This is true for a monk with pure six roots, let alone this Li Xiuyuan.
