The gentleman is to blame

"What's the matter of adulthood?" Song Huaizhen asked.

Xie Nangui suddenly smiled, his face seemed a little sad, "Song Huaizhen, do you have any family?"

"I don't have any family. Did I just jump out of the cracks in the rocks? Of course I do. But they're all gone. My father has some real estate shops in Jinling. I've been on the mountain all these years and I've been handed over to Uncle Zhong, the housekeeper. If you Don't mind, let's also go to Jinling during this trip, Master never let me go down the mountain at will."

Xie Nangui nodded understandingly, "Then let's go to Jinling."

Song Huai really thought, this Xie Nangui has always used the name of being strict with himself and working hard, and won the first place in the annual Zongmen Conference every now and then.Right now, the sect conference is about to begin.The senior brother and himself are just going to fool around all year round.Xie Nanguike has never missed any Zongmen competitions.He could have waited for the end of the Zongmen General Assembly before going down the mountain.Why do you have to bring yourself, an eighteenth-rate martial artist, at this time?

"The things I want to inquire about on this trip have something to do with ghosts. I don't know much about them, so please ask Mr. Wangchen." Xie Nangui said.

Song Huaizhen's enchantment and talismans are good, but this is not the reason why Xie Nanguifei wants to go down the mountain with him. There must be other people in Taixuan Mountain who are proficient in this way.Forget it, it's useless to think too much.

As soon as the two arrived in Haiyu, it started to rain.Song Huaizhen saw a teahouse in front of him, and said to Xie Nangui, "It's raining heavily, and it's a bit chilly. There's a teahouse in front, let's go and have a seat."

Unexpectedly, after listening to Xie Nangui, he stared at the tea shop without moving.

Song Huaizhen felt a little strange, and suddenly remembered that Xie Nangui's parents were running a tea shop in Haiyu, it must be that they were more timid due to the closeness to the hometown, and dared not meet people.I feel a little envious in my heart, after all my parents are long gone.I wanted to ask if I saw my parents, but felt a little abrupt, and just quietly waited for Xie Nangui's movement.Xie Nan returned home for a while, and walked towards the teahouse.Song Huaizhen followed behind, shaking his head again and again.

The two entered the tea shop to avoid the rain, and Song Huaizhen asked the proprietress for a pot of green tea.After the proprietress served the tea, she also presented a plate of edamame.

"Where are you two young gentlemen going?" The proprietress of the tea shop is a middle-aged woman with the softness, gentleness, shrewdness and ability unique to women in the Jiangnan area.

Song Huaizhen said, "We're going to do something in Haiyu this trip, does Madam know what's interesting here?"

"It's the rainy season in the south of the Yangtze River at this time. Although there is not much rain, it is not convenient for visiting. Mr. Xiao Lang came at the wrong season." The proprietress laughed.

"We came from the north, and I grew up in a dry place. I was a little surprised by the drizzle for several days, but I just arrived here today, and I have received such hospitality from my wife, so the rainy weather is nothing."

The proprietress smiled like a flower, chatted a few more words and went to greet other guests.After resting for a while, Song Huaizhen smiled at the proprietress, and Xie Nangui was about to leave the tea shop, the proprietress said, "Young gentleman, stay a while, you two are foreigners, I would like to remind you, don't come near Dianshan Mountain."

Song Huaizhen wanted to ask again, but saw that many people came to the tea shop to avoid the rain, so I couldn't say more, thanked the proprietress, and rushed to the inn in the city.

Song Huaizhen is in a very good mood now, he has been here on the mountain for a long time, and occasionally seeing the customs and customs at the bottom of the mountain is also a special pleasure.The last time they traveled, Master was going to Gaochang Country in the Western Regions to listen to the Fa. The three of them crossed the desert and got separated on the way.

The unlucky Song Huaizhen walked alone and saw with his own eyes the remains of everyone in the caravan ahead and the looted goods.Thieves and bandits are rampant in the desert, specializing in robbing passing caravans.I was alone that day, and when I saw this scene, I was terrified in my heart. Although I already knew that the desert was barren and bandits were rampant, but seeing this scene with my own eyes, my heart was filled with fear, fear, and sadness, but I couldn't even take a step. up.Fortunately, that day, I met an eminent monk who was going to Gaochang to teach the Dharma, and buried the caravan with the master. After the salvation, the two walked together and went to Gaochang to meet with the master and brother.But after that, the master said nothing and didn't take me to travel.

Song Huaizhen also left some psychological shadows that time, thinking that it is better to go up the mountain, and the people and things down the mountain are too chaotic, but today Haiyu's proprietress is a nice person.

"Song Huaizhen, I want to say that edamame is very cheap, and the silver you gave is too much."

"..." Song Huaizhen was momentarily at a loss for words.

"I go down the mountain to consult doctors all the year round, so I know the approximate price."

"Then why didn't you tell me earlier that my silver didn't come from the wind."

"People always have to suffer a little bit, and they gain wisdom."

After Xie Nangui finished speaking, he looked at Song Huaizhen very seriously with sincere and deep eyes.

Song Huaizhen not only didn't know how to refute, but also felt that it was difficult for him to even speak when facing such a pair of eyes.

Arriving at Haiyu Town, it was still raining lightly.Houses with small bridges and flowing water, black roofs, white walls, and traditional Jiangnan houses lined up one after another.There are very few people on the street, and occasionally one or two oil-paper umbrellas can be seen, and people under the umbrellas are in a hurry.

The two walked into the inn, and the waiter greeted them warmly. Song Huaizhen kept silent this time, with a dignified, indifferent, peerless and independent appearance.Xiao Er looked at Song Huaizhen, then at Xie Nangui, and said to Xie Nangui, "Would you like to stay at the hotel?"

Xie Nangui replied in extremely fluent local dialect, "Two rooms."

Afterwards, Xie Nangui chatted with Xiao Er a lot about customs and customs, as well as Haiyu's changes over the years, and the conversation was very pleasant.

Song Huaizhen couldn't understand anything, and knew that Haiyu should be Xie Nangui's hometown.Seeing that he is very familiar, but I am very bored, so fortunately I ran into the room and went to sleep.

It was only in the evening that I woke up leisurely and heard a knock on the door.He got up and opened the door to find that it was Xie Nangui.

"It's time for dinner. I've found some news about Dianshan here, and I'll tell you about it later."

Song Huaizhen remembered what the proprietress said, and his eyes were a little dignified.

Sitting in the lobby of the inn, the two ordered a few side dishes, water eight immortals, braised wild rice stems in oil, braised pork with braised cabbage, and cold water celery.

Either light and sweet, or red oil and red sauce, it is different from Song Huaizhen's usual taste.Song Huaizhen's master has long since had bigu, so he doesn't need to eat.Senior brother has a strong taste, neither spicy nor sweet, but salty.After eating these few dishes today, Song Huaizhen couldn't taste any taste at all except the Braised Pork with Citrus Radix.

Other diners in the inn also went downstairs to eat one after another, and Song Huaizhen could hear them talking about "Dianshan", "female ghost", "sin-making" and the like.Looking at Xie Nangui, he said, "Don't you want to tell me some news? What's going on?"

"Dianshan has recently been rumored to be haunted by ghosts."

"Is that why there are so few people on the street?"

"Exactly, it is said that there will always be something scary at night in Haiyu. Recently, the respected elders in the city have planned to invite the Xiuxian Sect to kill demons. Most of the people in Haiyu City are panic-stricken, fearing that they will be haunted by something. Grab it and eat it."

"Aren't we the sect of cultivating immortals? Can't we please?"

"When you were sleeping in the afternoon, I had already consulted the elders. Give us three days."

"Three days is too short!"

"You and I have just gone down the mountain to practice and are young. The elders don't trust us. That's why the time is so harsh. They hope that we will retreat despite difficulties, but we don't want to offend Taixuan Mountain."

"I jump to conclusions without knowing us, so I really don't like the ghost ideas of these elders."

"The elder is responsible for the people in the city, so what can he do if he doesn't rely on past experience. You should rest well. We will go to Temple Mountain tonight."

"Slept well in the afternoon, no problem."

"I'll go to Dianshan first after dinner. You and I will meet at the entrance of Dianshan. By the way, this is the map I drew. If you follow the directions on the map, you will be able to reach Dianshan."

"Xie Nangui, you are from Haiyu, right?"

Xie Nangui nodded and said, "Haiyu is my hometown. I lived in Dianshan before following Master up the mountain."

When Song Huaizhen heard about Dianshan, he had some bad guesses in his mind, but it was inconvenient to ask further questions, so he went back to his room to rest after eating.
