bodhisattva is busy

After negotiating the deal, the wretched man doesn't plan to go to Guanjiangkou to pray for God anymore.

What is a fox fur robe?As long as he can get rid of the goblin that disturbed his house, he is willing to do ten or one hundred!

He is now full of confidence in Yang Jian, convinced that this is a Taoist priest with profound magic power, otherwise how could he see that he is being entangled by a goblin at a glance?And the indifferent smile on his lips is really inexplicably trustworthy, and the confidence is doubled.

The wretched man rubbed his hands together, urging him vaguely, "Well... when are we going to leave?"

Before Yang Jian could speak, a childish voice came, "Let's go? Where are you going? Why don't you take me with you?"

The voice was very close, and when the wretched man turned his head, he saw three Taoist boys standing behind him at some point. It's festive, chubby and cute, and suddenly, the soul of the strange sorghum is burning.

He couldn't help but bent down and wanted to pinch Xiao Shancai's fleshy cheeks. Xiao Shancai, who was always willing to be pinched by female creatures such as big girls and daughter-in-law, naturally didn't want to, so he didn't hide, and stretched out his hand easily Locking the wretched man's wrist firmly, he glanced at him with disgust, "Who are you?"

The wretched man twitched his hand, but didn't pull it back, a drop of sweat slid down his brow. Master Xin Dao couldn't even match the strength of a little doll, so where would he put his face when he said it?

So he pretended nothing happened and gave up struggling, let Xiao Shancai clamp his wrist, and with his empty right hand, he took out the folding fan at his waist and fanned it smartly, anyway, he was not too cold in his thick clothes, While shaking the folding fan, he introduced: "I am sinking Xiuzhu."

Yes, don't look at the wretched man's usual demeanor with such a wretched aura, he looks like a playboy at first glance, but he has a name that can definitely be called gentle and gentle, gentleman like jade - Shen Xiuzhu.

The fan can be called the first artifact in history, and it has always been a must-have equipment for all literati to equip. Just shake the fan up and down like this at any time, and an unfathomable or elegant and noble temperament will emerge spontaneously, and the image will instantly become taller.

From this point of view, shaking a folding fan itself is a very cheating action, but there is really such a kind of person in this world who can make any action with a kind of wretchedness - this one in front of him is obviously one of them of the best.

Luo Fan felt that the wretched man's father must regret giving him such a name. Think about someone saying his elegant name with a wretched expression when introducing himself... the effect must be very good. Shocked, at least there is only one word left on Luo Fan's facial expression at this moment - 囧.

Xiao Shancai obviously felt the same at this moment, he let go of his hands with twitching corners of his mouth, and turned to Luo Fanji to salute, "Bo..."

As soon as he said a word, Dajin and Xiaojin beside him suddenly covered his mouth. Xiao Shancai struggled subconsciously, but unfortunately these two were not of the level of wretched men, so he couldn't break free no matter what.

"Uh...uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu..." What are you doing, let go!

Da Jin suppressed him with one hand, and winked at him, "I said Xiao Shancai, what are you doing with so much courtesy when you are away from home, and there are outsiders here, Master and the others should be in trouble." As he said, he gestured to the wretched man direction.

The implication was too obvious. The hand of the wretched man froze for shaking the fan, and then silently backed away for more than ten meters: There is no doubt, the outsider seemed to be referring to him. These words seemed to be specifically for him to make him conscious Mellow rolls away.

Seeing the wretched man walking away, the two let go of their hands.

Xiao Jin rushed over and pinched Xiao Shancai's angry cheek, and said with a smile: "Don't be angry, Xiao Shancai, it's better not to let that person know the identity of the Bodhisattva and Master, it's just a chance meeting, and there is no such thing as acquaintance at all. Deep people."

Da Jin nodded and said: "Ordinary people have too much desire."

People always have desires, and if they can’t achieve it, they pray to others to help them achieve it. If others can’t help them, they pray to the gods, and they can pray to the clay sculptures and stone statues in temples. Once he begged, let alone seeing the god himself, no one could tell how the wretched man would react. Based on the principle that one thing more is worse than one thing less, it is better not to let him know.

Well, Xiao Shancai also knows this truth, he just got excited and neglected it.

Slapping Xiao Jin's paw hard, Xiao Shancai looked embarrassed and changed the subject abruptly, "Why did the Bodhisattva call me this time?"

"We're going to find the Bull Demon King to ask for someone. With you here, we can probably save a lot of talking." Luo Fan smiled and pinched Xiao Shancai's little cheek.

Xiao Shancai rolled his eyes, he was already used to being pinched, he nodded obediently and said: "This is easy, who is the Bodhisattva looking for, I will go there and ask Dad to release him."

"His name is Chen Xiang, and the cute dog and little lion are also over there. Let them show you when they arrive." Luo Fan thought about it, and then said: "I will put the Baolian Lantern in the Temple of Zhenjun. You can go back and take it later, quietly. Put it in Chen Xiang's baggage, don't let him find out... Well, by the way, tell him the news that the San Sheng Mu is under Huashan."

Let Xiao Shancai handle this matter. He and Yang Jian only need to set up a formation in Huashan and wait for him to come, and then hide by the side to eavesdrop on the formula of the Lotus Lantern. The process is not important, of course, the most important thing The reason is that he is now more interested in the situation of the wretched man. After all, goblins generally don't provoke humans, and it's really puzzling that they didn't just kill him but pester him relentlessly.

"Chenxiang?" Xiao Jin scratched his hair and thought for a while, then said, "Could it be that Liu Chenxiang, the son of the Third Holy Mother?"

Luo Fan raised his eyebrows, "You know him?"

"I know." Xiao Jin sneered, "That is to say, the reason why our master locked up San Shengmu was because he was greedy for glory, wealth, high-ranking officials and rich salary, and was reluctant to wear a black hat on his head. I almost died laughing when I stood by the side."

Luo Fan poked Yang Jian's arm with a smile, his eyes full of ridicule, "Hey, this is the first time I've heard that your position is a high-ranking official with a generous salary...well, a high-ranking official is, but the Emperor of Heaven really sent you Salary?"

"This question..." Yang Jian touched his chin and recalled: "It seems that there is no such thing?"

He looked at Da Jin and Xiao Jin questioningly, and the two little apprentices nodded firmly, "Indeed not!"

Luo Fan's face turned dark. He really didn't expect that the seemingly rich Heavenly Emperor was even more stingy than his immediate boss, Tathagata!

—— Tathagata gave him a work uniform at any rate.

Well, for the gods, maybe there is really no concept of salary.

Yang Jian smiled playfully and said, "Speaking seriously, he's not wrong. I really don't want to part with this judiciary god."

"What's the difference!" Luo Fan wrinkled his nose, "The little boy doesn't know how powerful the world is, so it's good to scare him, I really don't want to get him out so early."

Xiao Shancai followed suit and said, "Then I'll go later."

Luo Fan shook his head, "Forget it, the night is long and the dream is full, my main purpose is not to scare him, you just go there."

Yang Jian lightly ordered: "Golden-haired boy, you also go together." These two are clever, and it is not easy to make mistakes.

Watching the three little ones lead the way, the wretched man waved the folding fan in his hand towards them, walked over and asked, "Can we go now?"

The two stood up: "Let's go, you lead the way."

Because of the wretched man and his bodyguards, Yang Jian didn't use spells, so the group had to walk on foot. On the way, the wretched man told his specific situation. In short, this is a haunted story.

"I really don't know what's going on. At first, I was the only one who could see it. A female ghost in red would appear in my house every night, either in the gazebo or in the corridor. One time when I woke up at night, as soon as I opened the door, I saw her standing outside the door, and she came face to face, and almost scared me to death." Having said this, the wretched man trembled, and his tone turned sad, "Later, it was too late. I got used to it, and I didn’t even feel it when I woke up in the middle of the night and saw her standing by the bed staring at me.”

The corner of Luo Fan's mouth twitched: Hey, are you so used to such horrible things?Nima, how rough is this nerve? !

"Later, it wasn't just me, the servants and maids at home also said that they saw the female ghost in red. Later, not only at night, but sometimes during the day, she would also appear, standing on the eaves, beams, and even swaggeringly in the yard. I can see her smiling at me."

Luo Fan calmly concluded: "This ghost has a special liking for you, it's almost devoted."

The wretched man glared at him, and then said: "Later, a crazy Taoist priest passed by my house and said that he had a demonic aura. I was so excited that I almost didn't kneel down to him. I don't care if she is a ghost or a demon. In short, just take her in." , I haven't had a good night's sleep for more than half a year, look at how swollen my eyes are."

He pointed to his eye sockets, Luo Fan saw that his face seemed to be covered with powder, so he didn't pay attention to it before, but now he looked carefully, it was indeed a little swollen, the dark circles under his eyes were as deep as a giant panda, and his eyes were bloodshot.

"And then, why didn't the Taoist take the monster away?" Luo Fan asked, he didn't consider the fact that the Taoist was not capable enough to deal with the monster. After all, he could see that the monster was responsible, so he should have some skills.

The wretched man cried and said angrily: "After he performed a few ceremonies and took several hundred taels of silver from me, he told me that this monster is too powerful and he can't deal with it. He asked me to hire someone else or simply ask God to worship Buddha, and then He ran away with money, and I sent people to chase him for several miles without even finding anyone!"

"...So you came to worship God?" Luo Fan's tone was a little surprised.

This is definitely the most unscientific way!The success rate is infinitely close to zero. It seems that the wretched man was really forced to have no choice but to go to the doctor in a hurry.

"How can it be, I also found a lot of monks and Taoists, and none of them succeeded. They were either cheating money or telling me that this goblin is too powerful and they can't deal with it. That's all. That goblin used to be a ghost It was scary, so I endured it and passed it. It didn’t take long before the chickens at home started to go missing. When I found them the next day, there were only a handful of chicken feathers, a pile of white bones, and a big pool of blood. There was still blood written on the courtyard wall. with..."

The wretched man paused, and Luo Fan couldn't help but ask, "What's written?"

The wretched man lowered his voice, and said in a mysterious and menacing tone: "The words 'Blood Debt and Blood Repayment' are written in large characters, and the blood has not yet solidified, dripping down one by one, and it has been like this for several days, until the end All the chickens at home were killed, and the last time I wrote it on the top of the bed in my house. When I woke up during the day and opened my eyes, I saw a piece of blood-red handwriting, which was still dripping intermittently, staining the quilt red. It dripped all over my face."

The wretched man's tone suddenly turned cold, "I thought at the time, it was only chickens that died in the past, but now that the chickens have died, what will die tomorrow? The big yellow dog at the door? Or the lady in the kitchen? Or... And me?"

The wretched man squinted his eyes and looked very devoted, perfectly exaggerating the gloomy atmosphere, and meticulously portraying his panic and helplessness at that time.

In short, this dude has a good time telling ghost stories.

Luo Fan was stunned, why did he suddenly feel that the purpose of the wretched man is not to be scared by the monster and want to take him in, but to hope that someone can catch the monster and open his eyes?
