Subversion of the plot [Comprehensive]

In the Tang Dynasty, Buddhism and Taoism prevailed. Even princesses became monks and priests, and many eminent monks appeared. There are also temples and Taoism temples on the mountains near Puguan. Taoist Chen is the famous Taoist priest in Qingyun Temple.Daoist Chen is over fifty years old, with a thin face, bright eyes, five willows and long beards, and a Taoist robe. He has the demeanor of an outsider.

Daoshi Chen walked into the Xikua courtyard with his servants while looking around. As for what happened last night, he had already heard from the maid, otherwise he would not have gone down the mountain.Generally speaking, Daoshi Chen has some skills, but it's hard to say what his skills are at the moment.Behind Chen Daoshi is a little Taoist boy, only eleven or twelve years old, who looks steady, with a bag on his back, which contains all the things he needs to do.

As soon as she heard that the chief minister had arrived, Wei Xue'e seemed to be guaranteed, and ordered someone to come in.

The openness of folk customs in the Tang Dynasty was far inferior to the oppression and imprisonment of women in the Song and Qing Dynasties. It was common for women to go out to play and meet men, let alone meet someone from outside.

It was not surprising that Chen Daochang came in and saw a noble lady in a chest-length skirt leaning on the head of the bed. Looking at her frightened eyes, one could tell that she was quite frightened.Sitting beside him was a man in a silk robe with a round neckline. Although he looked somewhat refined, Chen Daochang had seen countless people, and he could tell that the man was an official.

Suddenly Chen Daochang's expression changed, and he walked quickly to Zhang Sheng to look carefully, and took a deep breath: "Ah ghost!"

As soon as these words came out, Wei Xue'e was so scared that her face turned pale: "Prince Daoist, please save the lives of my husband and wife! I must thank you very much!"

Seeing the Taoist priest staring at the scar on his neck, Zhang Sheng felt his heart pounding.

Chen Daochang sighed: "According to Madam, it was a red-clothed ghost. He must have had a deep hatred before he died, and he would not give up until he achieved his goal. When the poor Taoist came, he looked around, but he didn't find the shadow of this ghost. Not here for the time being. Pindao will leave some talisman papers for you to stick on the doors and windows, and hang my fly whisk on the door, which may block it. If the two of you are still worried, Pindao can also stay. That ghost will come again."

"Please ask the Taoist priest to stay. Just tell the Taoist priest what you need." Of course Wei Xue'e didn't want the Taoist priest to leave.

"The impoverished man will go down for the time being and make preparations. We will meet that ghost tonight." Daoist Chen knows very well that he is capable, and ghosts are not easy to deal with. He has never encountered it before, and he heard it from his master when he was young.Nowadays, many Taoist priests are studying Taoist scriptures. In the past few years, the vassals and towns were divided and wars broke out everywhere. If the people could not survive, they became monks and Taoists. The imperial court did not levy taxes on temples and Taoist temples.There are quite a few Taoist priests who know how to do things, but most of them are ostentatious. Taoist Chen with real skills is the only one in the entire Hezhong Mansion, and his masters and brothers have all passed away.

You can't hide the movement in the Xikua courtyard, not to mention there are patrolling soldiers in the general's mansion from time to time, and they will inevitably mutter when they see it.

Sun Ming came to Xikua courtyard to take a look, and saw that the entire courtyard was covered with talisman papers, a table had been placed in the middle, and all the things used for rituals were ready.The servants in the courtyard were all around, with stacks of yellow talismans in their hands, and everyone was like a frightened bird.Sun Ming frowned, turned around and went to the main courtyard, and told Du Que about it.

"General, isn't it good for them to catch ghosts with such a great fanfare? Today, many people have come to ask me if there are ghosts. I am worried that this will shake the morale of the army. The general also knows that Sun Feihu has a wicked heart, so we can't be careless."

Du Que only said: "Wei Shangshu is in charge of the household department."

Sun Ming was taken aback for a moment, then smiled wryly.

The Ministry of Households is in charge of money, and although the military pay is managed by the Ministry of War, it must also be allocated from the Ministry of Households.Nowadays, it costs a lot to raise soldiers everywhere, and the salary of soldiers is very important. In the past, the salary of soldiers was delayed every year, and it got better in the past two years.

Although Du Que was a martial artist, he was a scholar in the early days. Later, seeing the chaos in the world, he abandoned his pen and joined the army.He thought more than Sun Ming.According to the news from Chang'an, Dezong's situation is getting worse and worse. I am afraid that his life expectancy will only be one or two years. Once the emperor Bintian...

When night fell, the general's mansion was brightly lit, but it was silent.

The matchmaker's injuries are serious, but the elixir is curative, and she is almost healed, and she is eager for revenge, so the matchmaker does not want to delay any longer, and must come tonight, vowing to take Zhang Sheng's life.Tao Shuobai was worried, so she followed and told the matchmaker that if Wei Xue'e didn't know about it, don't hurt the innocent.

The matchmaker was very reluctant, but what he said was not unreasonable, so she agreed, but she also said: "Young master, let's talk about it first, if she has something wrong, don't stop me."

"Okay." Tao Shuobai often heard Zhong Kui say that people's hearts are sinister, and the ghosts in the underworld all want to clear up the karma of their previous lives, so he also believes in revenge and revenge.

When the two arrived at the General's Mansion, Tao Shuobai immediately smelled the smell of talisman paper incense candles.

"They invited Taoist priests."

"Smelly nose is old!" Hong Niang was not afraid at all, and was swept in like a gust of wind.

Tao Shuobai didn't know what the Taoist priest was capable of, and since Du Que was there, he hid himself and followed him.

Everyone in the Xikua courtyard was waiting in battle, and an altar had been set up in the courtyard. Seeing a gust of wind blowing in, Daoist Chen felt something in his heart.The doors and windows of the room behind him were covered with yellow talisman papers. Zhang Sheng and Wei Xue'e sat in the room, surrounded by maids and servants, listening nervously to the movement outside the door.

"You meddling stinky Taoist priest!" As soon as the matchmaker finished speaking, she appeared and stood in the courtyard.

Chen Daoshi saw that she was a pretty woman in red, and he couldn't help feeling sorry for her young death, and persuaded him: "When is the time to repay the injustice, why not put down the grievances and reincarnate as soon as possible, and escape from the sea of ​​suffering..."

"You Taoist priest is really long-winded. The hatred is not yours. Naturally, you won't hurt your back when you stand up and talk!" "Old Taoist priest, you can't deal with me, so you might as well not meddle in your own business, so as not to lose your life in vain. Zhang Sheng is ungrateful and ungrateful, and he killed my lady, I will definitely take his life!"

Chen Daoshi didn't understand when he heard it, and it was a debt of love during his lifetime, but even if Zhang Sheng was really at fault, as a Taoist priest, he couldn't tolerate ghosts taking people's lives at will, otherwise it wouldn't be messing with the way of yin and yang.The affairs of the mortal world should naturally be taken care of by the mortal world, but Hong Niang didn't want to listen to his ramblings, so she raised her bare hand, revealing her blade-sharp fingertips, and her whole body was extremely ferocious.

Taoist Chen had no choice but to fight.

Zhang Sheng in the room had heard the matchmaker's voice early on, and his guess was confirmed. Zhang Sheng finally lost his last bit of strength, covered in cold sweat, and his face was as white as paper.Who knew, who knew Cui Yingying would die?The matchmaker is so ruthless.

"Gong Lang? Gong Lang, are you okay?" Wei Xue'e quickly ordered someone to bring tea, and cursed bitterly: "Cui Yingying hanged herself, what has it to do with us? Besides, it's been two or three years She just died, but now she is depending on us, not to mention what is it like to call a servant girl if the right master is not in charge? What a dog and a mouse! When Daoist Chen catches her, I will make her die, and she will never be reborn forever! Then Cui Yingying... Huh, I want to open her coffin and flog her corpse! Destroy her bones and ashes!"

Zhang Sheng's heart trembled, and for a moment he felt that Wei Xue'e was more terrifying than the matchmaker outside.

Daoist Chen is not as good as his teacher, the matchmaker was fierce and fierce, and gradually felt powerless, in a hurry, he remembered the inheritance from his master, immediately took out a bell, chanted a mantra to sacrifice the essence and blood, and raised his hand to beat the matchmaker.

The bell in the hands of Taoist priests is the calling bell. Once the bell is rung, the sound will shake and the ghost will follow the bell in a daze.The soul-calling bell passed down by Mr. Chen Daoshi is even more unusual. It can shock the ghosts and seal the ghosts in the bell. The soul is hammered by the bell every day, and the soul will fly away after 49 days.It's just that to use this bell requires one's own blood, and it takes a lot of effort to control it. Daoist Chen doesn't have enough cultivation experience, and it's enough to use it once, so he doesn't usually use it.

The matchmaker instinctively felt bad, and she had no time to hide. The deafening ringtones surrounded her from all directions, causing her to have a splitting headache and screaming again and again.

In the dark, Tao Shuobai's expression froze, he raised his hand lightly and knocked the calling bell to the ground, raised his hand casually, rolled up the matchmaker to collect the copper coins, and fled away.

Chen Daochang was secretly happy to see the hope of retrieving the ghost, but suddenly he spit out blood in his heart, and then saw the soul calling bell fell to the ground, and the ghost disappeared.Chen Daochang turned pale with shock, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses under Xiao Daotong's cry.

Pick up the soul calling bell to check, the bell is intact, but...

Who can easily knock down the soul-calling bell and save the ghost, what the hell is going on?

Zhang Sheng and Wei Xue'e didn't know about this in the house, but Du Que made people pay attention to Xikuayuan, and every move of Xikuayuan was reported to him tonight.

"It's really a ghost?!" Sun Ming was shocked.

Du Que paid more attention to another matter: who saved the matchmaker?The dead Cui Yingying?impossible!Even if Cui Yingying really became a ghost, she didn't have that ability, not to mention that the other party didn't hurt the Taoist priest, which was really unpredictable for a while.
