Sir, your ghost is gone [Entertainment]

The car stopped outside a winding alley, and Gu Weisheng stepped on the small road paved with bluestone slabs, feeling like he had lived hundreds of years back in a trance.

"The ghost alley in S city, any supernatural event can be answered here," Lou Xiao briefly introduced, "The Lou family's old house is at the innermost part of the alley."

Hearing the name "Ghost Alley", Gu Weisheng couldn't help but burst out laughing: "How could the alley where the Heavenly Master is located have such a name? 'Ghost Alley' sounds more like a stronghold of the undead than 'Mountain City'."

The mountain city is the "mirage in the mountains", also known as the ghost market. If the origin is discussed, it probably can be traced back to an article called "Mountain City" in Pu Songling's "Strange Tales from a Liaozhai Studio".

The mountain city opens every March, and every city has an entrance to the mountain city. As long as there is an old ghost to guide the way, it is not difficult to enter the mountain city.

Although Gu Weisheng is a man who is obsessed with cultivating in the deep mountains, he has participated in this kind of gathering in the undead world more or less, because he has a good cultivation base, and the administrator at the entrance of the mountain city kindly sent him a nationwide pass Soul Lamp.

Different from the misty mountain city, there are single-family, quaint courtyards on both sides of the ghost alley. Occasionally, there are a few stall owners who set up stalls on the street, and they all sit lazily on the small horses. It doesn't mean to greet the guests at all.

Even if Gu Weisheng was a newcomer to Ghost Alley for the first time, these people did not show the slightest curiosity about him.

This is really different from Shanshi.

If a human being suddenly appeared in the mountain city, the whole street would be in turmoil, right?

Gu Weisheng looked at the surrounding environment with great interest, and at this time Lou Xiao also began to answer Gu Weisheng's questions.

"Probably because most of the people who come here are related to ghosts." Lou Xiao led Gu Weisheng to the depths of the alley, "I haven't been to the mountain city, because I don't have a ghost to guide me."

Gu Weisheng came back to his senses: "I always hear you talking about accompanying ghosts and ghosts, what does accompanying ghosts mean?"

"It's not easy to define," Lou Xiao frowned, "If you have to give an explanation, the companion ghost is probably the ghost who traded blood with the Lou family."

Blood deal?Gu Weisheng was taken aback: "Is the blood of the Lou family all the same smell as yours?"

"What do you think I smell like?" Lou Xiao asked suddenly.

"A very cold aroma..." Gu Weisheng was not very sensitive to aromas other than food. He lowered his eyes and searched carefully for the smells he had smelled before.

"Like a cedar," Gu Weisheng affirmed after a few seconds, "like the cedar on the mountain where I practiced."

Snow pressed green pine, that kind of clear and light fragrance has always been his favorite, but he has been away from that nameless mountain for too long, and this smell has been left behind by him as time goes by.

"That's right," Lou Xiao nodded, "My flesh and blood itself has no smell, whether you smell it or taste it, what you feel is just what you want to feel."

There is no one flavor that can be liked by everyone. It is precisely because of this characteristic that Lou Xiao dares to say that his blood is "kill all ghosts".

"So it's like this," Gu Weisheng chuckled after being surprised, "Then I think what I smell should be the smell of sweet and sour short ribs."

"That depends on your heart," Lou Xiao replied inscrutablely, and then he continued the previous topic, "The flesh and blood of the Lou family has always contained a strong and stable aura. The confidence and reason of the ghost, but in a special situation like mine, I have only appeared in the Lou family for hundreds of years."

"Even the Golden Talisman Real Fire cultivated by the Lou family for generations has turned into the Red Lotus Karmic Fire in my place."

When Lou Xiao said this, his tone was not low, but Gu Weisheng still felt the other party's self-mockery. He has a transparent mind and is born with no karma, so he can't understand how painful Lou Xiao is who is always fighting with karma.

But Gu Weisheng really saw Lou Xiao's pale face, so he changed the subject with a light cough: "So the difference between a ghost companion and a ghost servant is whether the blood of Lou's family is used for trading?"

"It's not just that," Lou Xiao shook his head, "ghost servants are servants, and most of them are fierce ghosts who have been caught by the celestial master and have to submit; while the companion ghosts of the Lou family are companions, they are generally peaceful and have the blood of the Lou family. It’s just a partnership of equals.”

"The Taoism of the Lou family is to cultivate the yang energy into a harmonious spirit of yin and yang, and the ghost is yin, so the blood of the Lou family will look for a companion ghost to help them practice after they grow up, and the Taoism of the Lou family will follow suit. This phenomenon has changed quite a bit.”

"But you are different." Gu Weisheng raised his ghost pupils, Lou Xiao's body was neither yang nor spiritual, and the other party's aura contained a clear sense of righteousness.

Haoran upright.

This doesn't match the character of the little celestial master.

"Righteousness is not my own thing, it was brought to me by Yehuo," Lou Xiao explained patiently as if seeing Gu Weisheng's subtext, "Because of Yehuo, I leapfrogged to become The president of the Tianshi Association in S City; but also because of the karma, my cultivation has grown slowly, until it completely entered the bottleneck period five years ago."

Everything has animism, whether it is yin or yang, in the final analysis, they are all inseparable from everything in this world.

Especially human beings who stand at the top of all things, their behavior will have a great impact on Yin and Yang.

But as Lou Xiao said, people are born with seven emotions and six desires, ten evils and eight evils, so it is rare to find the purest and purest yin and yang in this world.

With the improvement of Lou Xiao's cultivation base, the karmic fire in his body has become more and more "provocative". Lou Xiao, who could barely cultivate, completely stopped his breakthrough five years ago, and because of this, he gained an extra Five-year period of weakness.

Gu Weisheng has been obsessed with cultivating for hundreds of years, so he knows everything about Lou Xiao's situation - the Lou family's Daoist cultivation requires both yin and yang qi, and Lou Xiao not only mutated yang qi into meritorious qi, but he also couldn't absorb and utilize it at all. If the yin and yang qi in the world can be cultivated smoothly, then the patriarch of the Lou family would have written such a book | Taoism in vain.

In the early years, Gu Weisheng also relied on yin energy to cultivate, but since he cultivated into a ghost fairy, his yin energy has become the purest spiritual energy, and this kind of spiritual energy without impurities is just suitable for Lou Xiao's cultivation.

That's why Lou Xiao came to Gu Weisheng.

"So how can I help you?" Gu Weisheng asked, "Just stand by your side?"

Lou Xiao nodded: "Stay by my side, or take the initiative to give me some spiritual energy."

"You can safely use my blood to make up for your lost aura," Lou Xiao said earnestly, "The Lou family has had this rule since ancient times. This is not harm, it's just a transaction."

It was the first time Gu Weisheng saw a celestial master who would take the initiative to feed ghosts with his body. He lightly bumped Lou Xiao's arm, and said sincerely: "You are very special."

"So are you relieved?" Lou Xiao said in a soft voice, "Although I'm not a good person, I really have no ill intentions towards you."

Maybe it's because of his high position for a long time. Except when he is not serious, Lou Xiao's speech is often short and forceful with a sense of command. Suddenly being treated so gently, Gu Weisheng is still a little uncomfortable.

"Don't worry," Gu Weisheng blinked, "but you'd better put the blood in a bottle for me, so that I can imagine that it's a bottle of drink."

"Fresh ones are useful." Lou Xiao vetoed Gu Weisheng's proposal, then he stopped and pointed to an ordinary small courtyard next to him, "Here we are."

Gu Weisheng followed Lou Xiao's hand to see that it was a single courtyard built of blue bricks, it stood quietly in the depths of the ghost alley, it was quite mysterious and simple.

Lou Xiao glanced at Gu Weisheng: "Are you sure you want to go in?"

"Of course," Gu Weisheng raised the corners of his lips, "Little Heavenly Master, don't you want to renege on your debt?"

"I will renege on my debt?" Lou Xiao skillfully pulled Gu Weisheng's wrist, "It is a bit difficult for non-human beings to enter Lou's old house. Although you have drunk my blood, it is safer to draw another talisman on you."

Gu Weisheng: "...." Drink?

He just licked it okay!

Lou Xiao has often pulled his wrists since we met, anyway, he got used to pulling and pulling. Gu Weisheng spread out his palm cooperatively and let Lou Xiao draw a spell on his hand.

With the movement of Lou Xiao's fingers, Gu Weisheng's palm gradually showed a few faint golden traces.

A little itchy, Gu Weisheng moved his fingers uncomfortably. This spell drawing method has a unique and gentle breath, and it should be a protection spell created by the Lou family.

I want to learn a bit.

After you go back, you can draw one on Lao Bai's forehead.

Just as Gu Weisheng was carefully appreciating the lines of the spell, Lou Xiao suddenly let go of Gu Weisheng's hand: "Okay."

At the moment when the spell was completed, the gate of Lou's courtyard opened with a "creak".

Gu Weisheng: "...." Are automatic doors very popular now?

But with the spell in his hand, Gu Weisheng clearly felt the difference in this house.

It was like brushing away the layer of mud that covered the beautiful jade in an instant. After the ordinary camouflage faded away, Gu Weisheng noticed the looming and ubiquitous nicks in the yard at a glance.

Interesting, how many layers of spells are stacked in this yard?

"Go in," Lou Xiao pushed Gu Weisheng uselessly, "all the Lou family's books are inside."

"They're all yours now."
