The Taoist priest is haunted by evil spirits

"Master, I'm in Yiyun these days, I feel a little sad when I see things and think about people, and I want to go to another place alone." After thinking about it for a long time, Yan Xiao made a small request when he was serving the meal.

Lu Jingyu's hand shook when he took the bowl, he used chopsticks to break up the steaming rice in the bowl, and said, "Okay, go back and pack up after eating, we'll leave in the afternoon."

"Yes." Yan Xiao didn't dare to push forward and emphasized that he wanted to go out alone and eat honestly with his head down.

They set off in the afternoon and arrived at a city in the evening. This city was called Panzhou City, and the city was very lively with people coming and going.

They were walking on the road and were going to find an inn to rest. From time to time, the voices of the people in the city could be heard around them.

"Today, an eagle actually came to our city of Panzhou!"

"Yeah, there is a gold ring in the eagle's beak, I don't know what it means."

"How about we give it to..."

"Don't dare! That eagle still has something in its mouth, who knows if it's a good omen or a bad omen!"

Hearing what the people around him said, Yan Xiao was a little puzzled, and a guess came into his mind.At this time, someone shouted: "Look at the sky!"

At this time, they walked near the inn, looked up, and saw an eagle in the sky with a golden collar dangling from its beak, turning around in the air not far from them, as if it wanted to fall.

Everyone dispersed quickly, Yan Xiao said: "Master, isn't that..." He was stopped by Lu Jingyu before he could finish speaking.

Isn't that... Uncle?

After listening to the description, Lu Jingyu knew that Ying Yi had followed. He clearly remembered that at the end of the day, he drove someone away, and that person also said he would get out.When he was packing up his things today, he saw the box on the table that had never been touched, and he put it in the bag by some strange and mysterious mistake, and this "person" followed.

Oh, sorcery.

"Let's go to the inn." Lu Jingyu didn't want to watch the bird show, so he turned and went into the inn.Yan Xiao saw that Lu Jingyu didn't watch the excitement at all, but was actually looking at his uncle's thoughts, so he followed him in.

They asked for a room on the top floor, and when they entered the room, Lu Jingyu put down his things and said "come out".

Immediately after they heard something knocking outside the window, Yan Xiao went to open the window, and the eagle outside just now nimbly pierced in, loosened the gold collar in its mouth and hung it on its claws, and transformed into a Ying Yi himself.

"What are you doing here?" Lu Jingyu asked him.

Ying Yi put on the gold collar, hesitated and said: "I... I'm worried about you, so I followed you to have a look, but I arrived a little early."

"Oh, didn't I say that I don't want to see you?" Lu Jingyu saw that he was wearing the collar she gave Yan Xiao. This adult dared to lie to the child, it was really audacious.

"I'm coming to see my nephew, don't follow him if you have the ability, I promise I won't bother you." Ying Yi sat down at the table, poured a cup of tea, and did not regard himself as an outsider at all.

"Oh." Lu Jingyu turned her head away from him.

Ying Yi seemed to have thought of something, and said: "On the way here, I saw that Panzhou City is famous for its birds. This city is adjacent to a mountain, but there is not even a single eagle. I found out by asking the eagles in another mountain. It is said that Many years ago, there was a riot in the city of Panzhou by my people, and the people in the city wanted to hunt and kill the eagles. For the sake of safety, the eagles left the mountains near Panzhou. But I didn’t see any records about the presence of people in Panzhou back then. Knowing which clansman is trying to deceive the sky and stir up trouble, I want to take a look."

"No wonder everyone was talking about it just now, as if they rarely saw eagles in these years." Yan Xiao said.

"Yes." Ying Yi took a sip of the tea, took another cup and washed it with tea, poured the water into the other cup, poured the tea into the cup and pushed it in front of Lu Jingyu.

The skillful movements and the smooth process made Yan Xiao, an apprentice, feel inferior, and he said: "Before I heard the people in the city say that the birds in Panzhou City are good, you might as well go and see them after dinner. look."

"Let's go, let's go eat, I'll treat you." Ying Yi glanced at them and walked out first.

"Yeah." Lu Jingyu took a sip of tea, covered the smile on his lips with a cup, and got up to go downstairs.

They went downstairs to find the innkeeper looking worried.

Seeing them coming down, the shopkeeper stepped forward and asked: "You three have come from a long way, do you know the identity of the eagle in the city today?"

"Why is the shopkeeper worried?" Lu Jingyu asked him.

The shopkeeper got closer, and said in a low voice: "Seven or eight years ago, there were monsters in Panzhou, and after that, monsters haunted and killed teenagers for three or four years. There are still claw marks on his face and body, and his death is horrific, and he is discovered every year on September [-]. It has been a few years of peace, but at this time, everyone is inevitably worried..." After finishing speaking, the shopkeeper said Long sigh.

Both Lu Jingyu and Yan Xiao were shocked, but Ying Yi was stunned.September [-]th was his birthday.

The shopkeeper said again: "Everyone thinks that the eagle demon is causing trouble, so they want to kill all the eagles in the mountain, so there are no more eagles in the mountain in recent years."

At this time, the waiter in the inn stepped forward to lead them to their seats, and saw that one of the young men in black was wearing what seemed to be the gold ring held by the eagle, and tentatively said: "Young master, can you be with the eagle in the city today..."

Ying Yi smiled and replied: "I am a bird trainer. I rescued that eagle some time ago. When it saw me in Panzhou City, it flew to repay its kindness. I didn't expect that the eagle gave me a gold medal." I can only wear the collar. Now that the eagle has repaid his favor, I will let the eagle go."

"It turns out that this is the case, the young master is really a strange person." Xiaoer smiled and complimented.

"It's just a small skill, not worth mentioning." Ying Yi said modestly.

"I'm not ashamed to even snatch my nephew's things." Lu Jingyu's voice was extremely low, but Ying Yi heard it clearly, and quietly tugged on his sleeve as a gesture of goodwill.

"My lord, there is a strange bird in this city, it is a mynah, and other mynahs can talk, but I haven't heard it talk since I came to this inn a few years ago when I was a waiter. You are a bird trainer, I must be very interested in this bird." Xiaoer said.

Xiao Er was right, Ying Yi was really interested.He asked Xiao Er: "Where is this Mynah?"

"It's at the bird market at Xijiekou Bird Market." Xiao Er replied.

"Let's go and have a look later, let's eat first." Ying Yi took the menu from Xiaoer and began to order.

Ying Yi ordered some dishes, coincidentally they were all Lu Jingyu's favorite, he took a look at Ying Yi, and met Ying Yi's gaze.He was suddenly a little embarrassed, coughed twice and lowered his head to drink tea, the teacup was also handed to him by Ying Yi flushed with tea, he almost choked on himself while drinking.

Seeing that Lu Jingyu was choking, Ying Yi stretched out his hand to pat Lu Jingyu's back, but as soon as he put his hand on Lu Jingyu's back, he felt that Lu Jingyu's whole body was stiff.

Sitting across from each other, Yan Xiao was silently relieved to see that they finally didn't speak harshly or ignore each other, and lowered his head to drink tea slowly.

They finished their meal in a leisurely manner, and after paying their bills, they strolled on the street until they reached the entrance of West Street.

There are many stalls in the bird market at Xijiekou, and there are hundreds of birdcages inside. There are various birds such as orioles, thrushes, mynahs and budgerigars. The chirping is quite gratifying.

When they walked to one of the stalls, they heard the phrase "Gong Xi Fa Cai, the house is full of gold and jade", and it was one of the mynahs who spoke, as if to welcome the three visitors.

There were dozens of cages in this stall, and the peddler was sitting in the middle weaving birdcages, but he was startled by the mynah's words just now and dropped his work.He quickly stood up and bowed his hands to the three of them: "Three, I have a heartfelt request."

"Tell me." Ying Yi didn't know why the hawker was so shocked just now, so he agreed out of curiosity.

"The three of you, can you go back for a while, and then go to my stall?" the peddler suggested.

"Okay." The three of them followed the peddler's words, walked back and came back again, this time the mynah spoke again, but the auspicious words in his mouth were replaced with "good luck, flowers bloom and wealth".

Ying Yi was in a good mood, and walked over to tease the mynah in the cage. He said to the peddler, "How much is your mynah? I want to buy it and keep it." It must be quite a lot. After buying it back, he just taught it something else. He liked it very much and decided to buy it.

He thought about what the waiter in the inn told him just now, and asked the peddler: "I heard from the waiter at the inn that there is a mynah in Panzhou City who can't talk. Which stall is it in? I want to see it."

The peddler saw the mynah talking again, and he didn't know what was going on, so he hesitated and said, "My lord, this is the one that can't talk. It's absolutely true! It's called Axu, and it's been back since I hit it." Here, this is the first time it has spoken."

"Oh?" The three said in unison, but they didn't believe the peddler's words.

Seeing that the three were puzzled, the peddler hurriedly explained: "If you don't believe me, I'll give you a try."

He cleared his throat and said loudly, "Happy New Year!"

"Happy New Year!" All the mynahs started chirping, but the one just now was silent.

"Happiness is like the East China Sea!" The peddler said loudly again.

"Blessings are like the East China Sea!" The mynahs chirped again, but the one just now was still silent.

"It's a success!" The peddler changed his sentence again.

"It's a success!" The mynahs continued to chatter, but the one just now was still silent.

The voices of the hill mynas kept coming and going, but the one who started talking didn't make any sound.

"Is there any other way for you to prove that what you said is true?" If you try again, it will probably not stop until night, Ying Yi plans to change the method.

"How about this, today I will close the stall early, please come to my house for a talk." The peddler picked up the cage that fell on the ground just now, and was about to close the stall.

"Okay." Ying Yi agreed.
