It was all gone, and I asked around, and finally contacted Xiao Xiao through the relationship of another boss, and then invited the master and apprentice, hoping that he could think of a way out.

"So it is."

Xiao Xiao took a sip of jasmine tea, put down the cup, with an inscrutable smile on her face, showing a superior demeanor.

Looking at his expression now, Ruan Mudeng knew that he probably had a plan in mind, and he was just holding back the bad things, "We will live at the construction site tonight, and see what'thing' is doing the trick."

Chapter 25, 02, Picking up Gold [-]

The villa had just started construction and stopped within half a month. The only places where people could live were a few tin houses.

Boss Xie specially vacated the foreman's office and used it as a temporary residence for the master and apprentice to "work" more conveniently.

But of course, this kind of room cannot be furnished so comfortably. There are only two iron canopy beds on the left and one on the right, and two bedside tables. There is also a folding table and two chairs against the wall.

Before moving in, Xiao Xiao specially changed into a Taoist outfit with long robes and high crowns, burned a handful of incense at the door of the house, bowed in all directions three times, and then held a mahogany sword in her hand, and played a trick of exorcising ghosts in front of the door of the residence Gangbu, who warded off evil spirits, babbled and muttered words, and after attracting all the people on the construction site to watch, he scattered the burnt incense ash in front of the door, crackled and burned ten or eight strings of firecrackers, and put two The yellow talismans were pasted on both sides of the door frame, one on the left and one on the right.

Ruan Mudeng watched from the side, and felt that his master was really a swindler, so exaggerated that he couldn't look directly at him.

After tossing about these things, Xiao Xiao called everyone else to go back to her room, and she must not come out no matter what noise she heard tonight, then she also dragged her apprentice into the room, closed the door, and isolated everyone Curious glance.

"What are you doing?"

Ruan Mudeng was driven by Xiao Xiao to a bunk on the inner side, and told not to get down, watching his master sprinkle flour inch by inch on the entire floor, he couldn't help asking strangely.

"Hehe, you'll know after a while."

Xiao Xiao smiled slyly at him, "Judging from what Boss Xie told us, this construction site is indeed tricky, but the 'something' that is causing the trouble is obviously just trying to drive these people away, and has no intention of hurting others, so our methods can't It's too rough."

"Is this just plain white flour?"

Ruan Mudeng leaned out from the bed, twisted a pinch of powder on the ground, rubbed it, put it under his nose and smelled it, "I've never heard that flour can exorcise evil spirits..."

"Hey, hey, don't move your hands, you!"

Xiao Xiao turned around and added another layer of flour to Ruan Mudeng's finger prints on the ground.

After confirming that the floor of the whole room was covered with flour except for the bed next to the wall, he sealed the flour bag and put it on the bedside table, kicked off two shoes carefully, swished onto the bed, and put Ruan Mudeng squeezed against the wall.

"Turn off the lights and go to sleep, you can rest assured and wait."

"Hey, wait a minute..."

Ruan Mudeng struggled to turn his head, opened his eyes wide, and stared at Xiao Xiao who got into his bed in shock, "Are you going to sleep in the same bed with me tonight?"

You must know that the canopy bed is only 1.2 meters wide, and two big men are squeezed on it, and they can't even stretch out the quilt, and there is no way to turn over, besides...

Ruan Mudeng's earlobes turned red silently again.

Asking him to sleep with his master so close to flesh always made him feel inexplicably embarrassed—just imagining another body temperature beside him in the dark, and Xiao Xiao's pair of always smiling The peach blossom eyes made him panic so much that he didn't know where to put his hands and feet.

"Don't move!"

Xiao Xiao stretched out her hand under the quilt, and pinched her apprentice's thigh hard.

"If I don't sleep with you, if 'that thing' comes to trouble you in the middle of the night, and you won't be able to deal with it, if you get up in a panic and mess around and ruin my plan, wouldn't that be troublesome?"

"...I won't panic..."

Ruan Mudeng tried his best to stick himself against the wall, and retorted softly.

"Why do you feel wronged by sleeping with me!"

Xiao Xiao pulled the quilt to cover the two of them tightly, and stretched out a hand from under the quilt to turn off the only lamp left.

"Don't move around, sleep well!"

He adjusted his posture sideways, put his chest against the half of Ruan Mudeng's body, patted the young man's thin and powerful waist, put his lips close to the apprentice's ear, and softly told him: "No matter what movement you hear in the middle of the night, don't let it go!" Afraid, don't make a sound, believe me, you know?"

&&&&&&&&&

Ruan Mudeng slept restlessly that night.

He was thinking about what Xiao Xiao told him, always waiting for the movement in the middle of the night, and because his master was sleeping next to him, rubbing his arms against his chest, his chest against his back, and even the sound of breathing was close He was so close that he slept like a wooden puppet, not daring to move.

After finally staying up until midnight, he finally passed in a daze.

While half asleep and half awake, Ruan Mudeng vaguely heard a rustling sound, as if someone was fiddling with metal products.The young man was shocked immediately, and suddenly woke up.

It was almost dark all around, except for the little light from the cold light on the construction site outside through the gaps in the iron sheet.

Ruan Mudeng met Xiao Xiao's eyes at a very close distance. He saw his master bend his eyes, and a small mole at the corner of his eye moved slightly. gesture.

At this time, there was a clear "click" sound from the window, and then a slit opened automatically, and a gust of cold wind poured into the room. In such a hot summer night, it was so abnormal to a weird degree.

At the moment when he realized the danger, Ruan Mudeng opened his eyes.

There is a "figure" in the room.

Unlike the black shadows who were staring up at him in the sunken ship on the seabed, the "things" standing in their room had a clearer human form, head from head to body, and even the outline of the headgear and clothes could be distinguished.Although it also presents the unique black of ghosts and resentment, this "figure" faintly reveals a thin layer of white light, as if a silver veil is covering the whole body.

Ruan Mudeng immediately realized that it was something he had read in Maoshan Shuzhi, "Its dizziness is like silk wrapped in ink, thick lacquer paste, and the streamer is white"-the so-called one who has cultivated the phantom body Fairy!

The so-called "phantom body" refers to the three stages of ghost cultivation—the double, the phantom body, and the second level of the real body. The ghost that has cultivated the phantom body can already give birth to a body, has a clear self-awareness, and is no longer afraid of the sun. , Dao Xing is quite powerful, definitely not something a half-baked Daoist beginner like him can handle.

Cold sweat oozes from the forehead of the young man, and the hands under the quilt can't help but clenched the bed sheet tightly.

The shadow slowly approached the bed where the two of them were sleeping, and in the quiet air came the sound of "sha, duk", "sha, duk".

The sound is very strange, regular and rhythmic. The soft "sand" sound is like the friction sound when something is dragged, and the loud "duk" sound is made by some hard object hitting the concrete floor. Crisp.

The room was filled with an indescribable sense of oppression. If it was an ordinary person, he would probably have been "pressed by ghosts" at this time.

Although Ruan Mudeng was not completely unable to move, he still felt his whole body was heavy, and the air around him seemed to become thick and sticky, wrapping his skin coldly.

At this time, Hei Ying had already arrived at the bed, bent down slowly, and stretched out his hands towards the two people in the bed...

In the next second, Ruan Mudeng felt a sudden light on his body, and the man lying next to him suddenly threw off the quilt, turned over and jumped up - just hearing a "poof", Xiao Xiao turned towards the figure beside the bed, Suddenly sprinkled a handful of powder, flung that thing, and bloomed all over his face!

Ruan Mudeng only heard a scream coming from the bed—the voice was hoarse and shrill, it sounded like the voice of an old woman. Seconds later, everything returned to calm, and the shadow of the ghost was no longer visible in his wisdom eyes.

Xiao Xiao turned on the lamp in the room.

"Is it escaped by it?"

Ruan Mudeng sat up, like a vigilant mongoose, stretched his head and glanced left and right.

Xiao Xiao didn't speak, took a handkerchief from under the pillow, carefully wiped off some powder on the palm of her hand, and pinched another formula, a small blue flame rose from her fingertips Come, puff and burn the handkerchief you wiped into ashes.

After doing this, he took out a small bag from under the quilt, and opened the bag to let his apprentice see the contents.

Ruan Mudeng took a closer look and found that there was a little bit of white powder left in it, and a little thin green lens was sandwiched in it, shining emerald-like luster under the light.

Xiao Xiao wrinkled her nose, muttered and complained: "Just because of that moment just now, I have been carrying this bag of powder for half a night, and when I was accidentally confused, I managed to avoid pouring them all down! "

"What's the matter with these powders?" Ruan Mudeng was even more puzzled, "So what's your plan?"

"Come on, look at this."

Xiao Xiao's lips pursed slightly, and her eyes sparkled, like a child who has succeeded in pranking his masterpiece to his companions.He grabbed Ruan Mudeng's pajamas and motioned his apprentice to lean over to look at the floor beside the bed.

A layer of flour was sprinkled all over the floor, and Ruan Mudeng saw that there were actually two strings of strange marks on that layer of flour.

Both traces stretched from the bed to the window.

In one string, there are two rows of prints staggered left and right—the row on the left, like small pointed bamboo shoots, is arranged very closely, and the length of each
