Assassins came one after another, and Baili Cassia burned them to ashes time and time again.They always come at night, Xie Xunwei sat on the edge of the bed with the quilt in his arms, watching the swords and swords and the golden red fire outside the window screen.The shadows of the assassin and Baili Cassia moved, entangled, and chased in the halo, and the four corner window frames covered them, like shadow puppetry on the stage.

An assassin swung his sword at his head, taking advantage of the break in the fire of Baili Cassia.It was a slash from the ground cracking and landslides, and the cold light on the tip of the sword condensed thousands of killing intent.Xie Xunwei suffocated for a moment, only to hear a bang, and the sword snapped.Baili Jueming turned his face, the assassin's shadow backed away in a daze, Baili Jueming caught up with him, broke his face, and ended him with a head hammer.

The last struggling assassin also died, Xie Xun stepped on his bare feet and pushed open the door.The corpses outside were scattered all over the place, beyond recognition, and there was a smell of smoky barbecue in the air.Baili Jueming was digging a pit to bury his body, his clothes were burned away, half of his body was naked, his fair muscles were coated with a thin layer of moonlight.

"Master, I want to help too." Xie Xunwei ran to him.

"Go back to sleep, it's none of your business here." Baili Jueming said.

Xie Xunwei patted his chest solemnly, "Xunwei is not afraid, Xunwei is very brave!"

Baili Jueming patted her head, "I know you are brave. But killing and burying corpses is an adult's business, and the adults' business is left to the adults, and your children only need to sleep. Tell you, the little baby does not sleep at night. Don’t grow tall. If you become a short winter melon and can’t get married, don’t blame me, your master.”

"I don't want to marry!" Xie Xun pouted slightly, and walked back step by step.

With an apprentice, life is different.Baili Jueming's worries suddenly increased, he had to find a way to earn money to buy food, drink, such a small dress and jewelry, and he had to save money for her dowry.He started to get up before dawn every day, led the girls down the mountain to do shows, and played fire dragons at the street.Occasionally join hands with passing jugglers to perform boulder breaking in the chest.Later, he developed Dali Wan and sold it on the black market. He was quickly chased and ran all over the street after being arrested.However, the girl became an apprentice, and she became coquettish every day, and when she walked halfway on the mountain road, she complained that her feet hurt.

"I can't walk anymore." She squatted on the ground playing tricks.

"Get up, or leave you here to feed the coyotes."

"I don't get up until Master hugs me." She pouted.

"Speak well to me, don't call me 'Shi Zun Zun'!" Baili Jueming felt disgusted.

"Hmph, if you don't hug me, I'll call it that," Xie Xunwei was upset, "Master, Master, Master!"

Baili Jueming got goosebumps all over his body, collapsed and surrendered.This girl is a master of coquetry and foolishness, Baili Jueming couldn't resist, bent down and hugged her in her arms, she was finally happy, and rewarded him with a resounding kiss on his face.

The old man Wudu finally appeared, and Baili Jueming uninvited himself to mend the wall for him, and asked him 30 taels of silver for hard work.Sometimes Baili Jueming took Xunwei to Wudu's place to eat and drink when the family couldn't get rid of the pot. Then, while Wudu was meditating, he pulled the old man's hair to study how to comb the girl's bun.

"Jade Ming, this old man is a grand master, don't be so presumptuous." Wu Du closed his eyes and sighed.

His white hair was tied into two lively braids by Baili Jueming, and his beard was also braided by Baili Jueming.

"Shut up, I don't think you're bald, don't move around." Baili Jueming concentrated on studying the "Lady's Hairstyle Ceremony" found in the market, "His grandma's, why is this braid so difficult to untie?"

Xie Xunwei started to study, and the mountain was poor, no matter whether it was the stone house in Wudu or the broken medicine shed in Baili Cassia, there was no special place for studying.The two adults discussed for a long time, and Baili Jueming moved out Wudu's dining table, and put the pen, ink, paper and inkstone on it. The vine hut in front of the stone house is Xie Xunwei's school.Baili Jueming taught her the five elements, and Wudu taught her scriptures and principles and the origin of Taoism.Every morning, Xie Xunwei's clear and loud chanting sound floated into the forest.

"When did Daoism prosper?" Wu Du tested her knowledge.

Xie Xunwei answered eloquently: "In the 18th year of Xuanyuan, etiquette and law were greatly corrupted, Taoism was not flourishing, and the Masanghei sect of the Hu tribe was practiced in the world. Three thousand secret treasures of the Black Sect were burned on the banks of the Yangtze River, and the Black Sect has been abolished since then, and the rule of the old and the old has been restored."

Expulsion of aliens, revival of Daoism was taught by Wu Du the day before yesterday, and I took the exam today. Fortunately, Xie Xunwei has a good memory, and he also studied it carefully when he returned to the medicine garden.She didn't know much about the Masang people, and there were very few records about them in the ancient books, which seemed very taboo.It is said that they came west on elephants 500 years ago, with lotus flowers in their hands and orbs in their mouths. Later, the fairy gate was revived and they were expelled back to their hometowns, and the Masangu tribe disappeared since then.

"Why expel the Marsang Black Cult?"

"There is a saying in the Black Sect that all beings in the ghost realm are also sentient beings. The Black Sect does not distinguish between humans and ghosts, but respects mothers and goddesses. Humans and ghosts go the same way, ghosts are blazing, and Taoism is evil."

Wudu nodded, "What technique should I use to kill ghosts?"

"Ghosts can't be killed, there are only two methods: supersedation and sealing. Supersedation is the first priority, followed by sealing." Xie Xunwei finished his answer, closed the book, and asked ignorantly, "Grandpa Wudu, are all ghosts bad? There are no good ghosts in the world. Is it true that ghosts are born of humans, so are humans and ghosts really not the same at all?"

Wudu didn't answer, just patted her head lightly, "In time, you will have the answer in your heart."

She is a hard-working child, buried in Wudu's small library day and night, reading scriptures and local chronicles, and local chronicles and legends, the more she reads, the more fascinated she becomes.Sometimes when she was tired of reading scriptures, Wudu would tell her ghost stories about Huangquan Ghost Country and teach her to recognize various Masang characters that have been lost.

She finished reading all the books on the bookshelf of the Ministry of History, and then took out a dusty notebook from a corner, which contained Wudu's handwriting, and on the first page were four big characters "Jiaogui Zhaoling" , about where Wudu copied it from.She has heard of this technique, which is a forbidden technique explicitly forbidden by the Immortal Gate.She climbed to the threshold with the book in her arms, and looked out, Wudu and Baili Jueming were playing chess in the small courtyard, Baili Jueming just dropped a piece, immediately said "no, no, no", raised her hand to twist the chess back , changed the place.

Wudu shook his head and said: "I have no regrets, Cassia."

"I'm going to regret it," Baili Jueming leaned back, "what's the matter, hit me if you have the ability."

Wudu was so angry that his beard shook wildly, and he almost walked away.

No one paid attention to Xie Xunwei, Xie Xunwei retracted his head, unable to suppress the eager curiosity in his heart, went back to the corner and opened the second page——

"Stopping ghosts and summoning spirits, using ghosts as shadows, there is no hindrance, and humans and ghosts are in the same body. However, the yin qi will hurt the body, the mild ones will lose their yang life, and the severe ones will go crazy..." She closed the notes with a snap, no no no , cannot read forbidden books.She stuffed the diary back into the corner and continued to read the scriptures next to her.

Day by day, Wudu's library was crawled by Xie Xunwei.Baili Jueming came to carry her home, and when the little girl was leaning on his shoulder and fell asleep, she was still reciting chapters from the "Lingshu Sutra".He thought it was funny, and hugged her with both hands, two people, one big and one small, walked on the stone road under the moonlight.Sometimes when Wudu was not free, the little girl would chase after him with a scroll in her hand and ask questions.

"Don't ask!" Baili Jueming's headache was splitting, "I haven't read what you said."

"How is it possible!" Xie Xun said slightly, "Master is so powerful, why haven't you read the secret mantra?"

"I'm different from you idiots," Baili Jueming raised a finger, and fiery red flames burst out from the fingertips, "I am born with Taoist fire skills. So don't ask me, geniuses and idiots can't communicate .”

"Hmph," Xie Xunwei left dejectedly, muttering, "Master is the big fool."

"What did you say?" Baili Jueming raised his brows high.

Xie Xunwei immediately changed his words: "I said Master is very smart!"

She kicked and ran to the firewood gate, then turned her head, "Master! Why is there a rope ring at the old banyan tree!"

Baili Jueming's eyelids twitched, he turned his face and said, "How do I know?"

"Master, can you tie another rope ring and make a swing!" Xie Xun asked slightly.

"Good idea." Baili Jueming snorted coldly.

"I'm begging Master!" Xie Xunwei began to act coquettishly again, "Master is the best for Xunwei!"

It's really annoying to have an apprentice, give her food, drink, and play with her!Baili Jueming was so wrapped up in his head that he gave up and said, "That's all right, all right, I'll wait until I'm free."

She skipped and ran down the path, twirling in circles, her lotus-colored skirt fluttering in the air, like the fluttering wings of a little butterfly.The daylight was just right, and the braids that Baili Jueming had tied for her were black and shiny, jumping up and down with her, lively and lovely.Baili Jueming looked at her graceful back, and unconsciously raised the corners of his mouth.

"Catherine, do you want to live?" Wudu walked to Baili Jueming, and looked at him side by side.

"I can't live, Wudu, I'm an evil ghost who hasn't found rest." Baili Jueming looked down at his palm and said sarcastically, "No matter what method I try, hanging, beheading, quartering a body by five horses, jumping off a cliff, I'll die." There is no way to really kill myself. Those methods can only kill the body, not my soul. I will always be an evil ghost wandering in the world, unable to reincarnate, unable to reincarnate."

"You are not seeking salvation, but torturing yourself." Wudu said.

"So, use your last time to find a way as soon as possible to save me." Baili Jueming said flatly.

Wudu sighed, "I'm going to West Nanda again."

"Didn't you go to Huangquan Ghost Country just now?"

He didn't know why Wudu was so persistent. In the 50 years he had been in Baochen Mountain, Wudu had been searching for records about Huangquan Ghost Kingdom almost day and night.

"I don't have much time, Cassia."

Baili Jueming didn't care about his business, he just said: "Then you have to come back alive, I won't collect the body for you if you die so far away."

After speaking, he waved his hand and turned back to the house.

People from Xianmen came to see off their disciples again, this time it was Jiang's family, bringing a pretty girl, Xunwei hadn't bloomed at that time, compared to her, she looked like a shriveled bean sprouts.The little girl sat under Baili Cassia's knees with her mouth open, her hands twisted under her jacket.The girl knelt down in the hall, peeking at Baili Caesar, she blushed, lowered her head shyly, revealing the back of her porcelain-white neck.

The envoy came and said: "This is the daughter of the lord of the Jiang family. She is a bit older now, but her appearance and bones are excellent. Does the elder really not consider it?"

Before Baili Jueming could speak, Xie Xunwei answered for him first, "Don't think about it!" She climbed onto Baili Jueming's lap, hugged his neck tightly and declared her sovereignty, "Master belongs to me alone! And Master is poor and cannot afford to support two apprentices!"

Baili Jueming: "..."

Come and smile politely, "Miss Xunwei doesn't like to have another senior sister? It's okay, Elder Baili hasn't married for a long time, so it's better to marry Qin and Jin with our Jiang family. Mistress Xunwei is a baby girl, and she has a teacher to help take care of her. , will be more considerate and secure.”
