I'm catching monsters in Liaozhai

somewhere.

In a magnificent palace.

A middle-aged man in white clothes, with a white face and no beard, sits cross-legged on a white lotus platform.

In front of him, kneeling was a pale man.

"Altar Master, I realize my mistake, please give me another chance."

He kept kowtowing.

There was a bang bang.

His forehead was bruised and bleeding.

But he was completely unaware of it.

"If you do something wrong, you have to accept punishment. This is the rule."

The man in white said expressionlessly.

As he reached for his hand, a palm-sized white lotus flower appeared in his hand.

The lotus is white and flawless.

But in the eyes of the man kneeling on the ground, it was as if he had seen a demon, and his face was filled with fear. His expression changed drastically, and he quickly stood up, turned around, and ran out the door.

"go--!"

The man in white raised his hand gently, and a white lotus suddenly flew out of his hand.

When flying out.

It gets bigger quickly.

As big as a human head.

The petals are also expanding rapidly...

Before the man could reach the door, the next second, a white lotus fell from his head, and its long petals instantly enveloped his head.

It's like wearing a big hat.

The man wanted to remove the lotus flower from his head, but the white petals seemed to be firmly rooted on it, piercing into his skull.

Suck his brains, his blood...

He let out a shrill scream.

But as his body shriveled up quickly, he soon became silent.

The white lotus gathered up again, returned to normal, fell off from his head, and flew out of the hands of the man in white.

at the same time.

The man's body seemed to have no bones, swaying and falling to the ground.

It's like a snake taking off its skin.

In fact.

All he has left is this piece of skin.

Everything else, everything in the body becomes nutrients for the white lotus.

The man in white had just put away the white lotus in his hand when footsteps sounded outside the door. Immediately afterwards, a subordinate came in, knelt down on one knee, cupped his hand towards the man in white and said: "Altar Master, Water Taoist's lotus lantern is extinguished. ”

"Oh!"

The man in white still had no expression on his face, and then said, "The Water Taoist has the cultivation level of the third realm, and the person who can kill him must be extraordinary. Aren't his three sworn brothers also there? Then... Let them have a go.”

"Yes, Altar Master!"

The subordinate responded.

-

Time flickers.

Another few days passed.

On this day, Tan Ming came to visit Xu Lang at Shenxianju.

Also coming with him was He Zian.

"Brother Tan, are you back from a private visit with Mr. Bao in disguise? Oh, Brother He is here too. Sit down quickly."

Xu Lang asked the two of them to sit down.

Just as he was about to pour tea for the two of them, he realized that there was no hot water in the teapot.

He said: "I'm going to get some hot water, you guys sit down for a while first."

Because Shenxianju did not invite servants, Xu Lang would do it himself when guests came.

soon.

The hot water came back.

After making tea, Xu Lang poured a cup of tea for each of them.

After chatting a few words.

He Zian then took out a big red post from his arms.

Xu Lang took it and took a look.

It's actually a wedding sticker.

Xu Lang looked at He Zian and said, "Congratulations, Brother He. I will definitely drink this wine when the time comes, but I don't know which family the bride is from?"

"Brother Xu, you have actually met her, Miss Ruiyun. This is all thanks to Brother Xu's marriage charm, otherwise, I wouldn't be able to marry Ruiyun." He Zian said.

"Oh, so Brother He has saved enough three hundred taels of silver?" Xu Lang asked in surprise.

He Zian shook his head and said, "I redeemed Ruiyun for only thirty taels."

"Originally, it was three hundred taels, so why did Mrs. Wang only have thirty taels and let you take the person away?" Xu Lang asked again.

"Brother Xu, this is all because of your marriage talisman. However, Brother Xu, I want to ask, do you know that a person's appearance will change after using this marriage talisman?" He Zian said.

Xu Lang shook his head and said: "But the expert who gave me the marriage talisman told me that after using the marriage talisman, what happens to it, including whether there is a marriage between the two, depends on each person. By the way, Brother He, why do you ask like this?"

He Zian sorted out his words and said: "Brother Xu, I am dissatisfied with you for saying that after Ruiyun took the marriage talisman, her whole appearance changed a lot. Because of this appearance problem, Ruiyun can no longer replace her. Mother Wang makes money.

So Mother Wang asked Ruiyun to do the rough work. Only then can I redeem Ruiyun's life with thirty taels of silver. "

"Brother Xu, you are so capable. Is there any way you can help your siblings restore their appearance?"

At this time, Tan Ming asked.

He had gone to see what Ruiyun looked like now.

It was a huge difference from before.

His whole face was dark.

Just like birthmarks.

People who often do farm work are not that black.

Xu Lang did not answer his words, but looked at He Zian and asked: "Since Miss Ruiyun's appearance has changed so much now, why do you still marry Miss Ruiyun?"

He Zian said without hesitation: "I like Ruiyun, never because of her appearance. Even if she stays like this all her life, I will still love her forever."

"Perhaps, you will get tired of it after a while." Xu Lang said.

"No. I swear to God, I will never let Ruiyun down in my life. If one day I really change my heart, then I will die badly." He Zian said firmly.

"Brother He, then remember what you said today."

Xu Lang smiled and then said, "In that case, Brother He, I believe you will get married tomorrow and you will definitely want to see a beautiful bride, right? How about this, I will accompany you and give you a beautiful bride .”

"Brother Xu, what you said is true. Do you really have a way to help Ruiyun restore his previous appearance?"

He Zian said excitedly.

Although he doesn't mind Ruiyun's current appearance, who doesn't like his bride to be pretty?

Xu Lang did not answer him, but stood up and walked towards the door, saying, "Let's go."

"Brother Xu, do you really have any idea?"

"Zian, you are confused. If Brother Xu says so, there must be a solution."

"That's great......"

......

The He family's house was left over from the past.

Although it is very dilapidated after so many years, it is not difficult to see from the towering courtyard wall how rich the He family was back then.

Nowadays, apart from He Zian, mother and son, the He family only has one old housekeeper.

of course.

There will be one more person soon.

Ruiyun's parents died when he was young. In order to have enough food, he entered the Red Sleeve Recruitment.

After Ruiyun left Hongxiuzhao, he was homeless and lived directly at He's house.

at this time.

Ruiyun, wearing a gauze scarf, was embroidering in the room.

She learned embroidery.

He Zian didn't dislike her now that she was like this, and she also wanted to do her best to save more money for He Zian.

He Zian suddenly opened the door and walked in, his face full of joy:

"Ruiyun, Brother Xu said there is a way to help you change back to your previous appearance..."
