Skilled in managing a house

"I see that your Yintang is a little dark. I'm afraid there will be a bloody disaster in the near future. It's best not to leave the Taoist temple these days. I have something to do right now. I'll help you take a look when I get back and try to resolve it." Zhang Yu said calmly.

It turns out that when I spoke before, tall men were normal. Strangely enough, after only making one phone call, when I looked again, the man's yintang turned black.

When the tall man heard this, he nodded quickly and said, "Taoist Master, I know. I have been staying at the Taoist Temple for the past two days. Thank you, Taoist Master."

"You don't have to be so polite. Okay, I'll leave first. You have a good rest and we'll talk later." After Zhang Yu finished speaking, he walked towards the entrance of the Taoist temple.

Although he was also wondering why the tall man's black seal was so sudden, Zhang Yu believed that as long as the other party stayed in the Taoist temple, nothing would happen to him.

In fact, darkening of the hall is also a hurdle in life. This hurdle can be avoided. As long as you avoid that period of time, nothing will happen.

Just like some car accidents, if you had been slower for one second, you might not have hit it. But often people's lives only depend on this second.

Therefore, Zhang Yu believed that as long as the tall man stayed in the Taoist temple and did not go out these days, he should be fine. After you finish your work, you can show him again to make sure everything is fine and let him go.

Zhang Yu came all the way down and when he reached the foot of the mountain, two disciples were already waiting.

After getting into the car, Zhang Yu asked his apprentice to drive. He sat in the passenger seat and sprayed blood on the eight-character fortune-telling chart. He recited the mantra and the pointer on the compass immediately started to rotate.

“Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.”

Soon, the pointer designated a direction, and Zhang Yu directed his apprentice to drive in that direction.

The main reason is that this is Guangming Town and there is no direct access to the city. You have to take a special road. After all, the car cannot go over the mountains. They first went to the city and then followed the directions.

To be honest, this place is really hard to find. The disciple who was driving was just a college student and was not very familiar with the roads in Zhenhai. The places they walked next were all in the suburbs. When it was almost twelve o'clock in the evening, I got lost and just followed Zhang Yu's route.

The further we go, the more remote it becomes. There are no street lights, and there are only some crop fields.

Fortunately, this direction is not wrong, it still points to the right front. After driving for a while, the pointer rotated slightly and pointed to the right. In this place, there are no roads anymore, only a small river ditch, and there is no bridge on the river ditch.

"Stop the car." Zhang Yu said.

The disciple immediately stopped the car and said, "Master, are you here?"

"That's almost it." Zhang Yu opened the door and got out of the car.

He looked around, back and forth, and could barely make out the outline through the moonlight and car lights.

After crossing the small river ditch, there is a row of small woods. I don't know if there is a banker or a house behind the woods. But since it points there, that's basically it.

Zhang Yu said: "You drive forward, try not to stop, just drive forward, pay attention to safety. Come back when I call you."

"Yes, Master." The disciple immediately agreed.

Although I don’t know what Zhang Yu is doing here, there must be something important coming here in vain.

If someone is hiding here, it's probably not a good person.

Zhang Yu closed the car door and signaled to his disciples that they could leave.

The car started and drove forward. Zhang Yu saw that the creek was not deep and there was only shallow water below. He stopped looking for the bridge and simply jumped down and ran to the other side in a few steps.

He walked slowly towards the small woods in front of him. In the dark night, Zhang Yu walked very slowly, holding the eight-character fortune-finding chart in his left hand and holding the money sword in his right hand.

Although he also carries a number of magical weapons such as the Seven-Star Sword, the Jade Void Rope, the Soul Mirror, and the Black Scissors, Zhang Yu's favorite weapon is the Money Sword.

He was cautious and walked into the woods, and then discovered that this was not a woods at all, just a few rows of trees. Behind the tree, there is a small courtyard. The courtyard is pitch dark, and the pointer of the compass in the hand is pointing to this courtyard.

In order to confirm whether it was here, Zhang Yu deliberately moved sideways. As he moved, the compass pointer moved with it, still pointing to the yard.

"It seems like this is it." Zhang Yu secretly begged in his heart.

He put the compass into his arms, pinched out a few fire charms, and walked slowly to the yard. Across the courtyard wall, Zhang Yu listened carefully. There was no sound inside, as if there was no one at all.

"Is it better to have everyone inside sleeping?" Zhang Yu muttered and looked up at the courtyard wall. It was not too high, at most two meters.

He jumped up, stepped on the wall with his toes, glanced down, and landed firmly in the courtyard.

With his current level of cultivation, the sound is so low that normal people cannot hear it.

Then, as soon as he entered, he suddenly smelled a fragrance.

This was a floral scent. Zhang Yu was still wondering where the scent came from, and then he felt dizzy.

He quickly held his breath, thinking that the fragrance must be poisonous. Then he closed his eyes and used his inner eye to see what was going on.

Just looking at it, he saw a pink petal floating in front of his spiritual soul, and the petals directly wrapped his spiritual soul.

Zhang Yu didn't dare to neglect, he immediately raised his energy and hit the petals on Linghui Po.

Fortunately, Zhang Yu reacted quickly and inhaled only a small amount of fragrance, just one petal. As soon as the true energy arrived, in the blink of an eye, the petals were shattered and disappeared.

The dizziness in his head disappeared, and Zhang Yu opened his eyes. Fortunately, at this time, there was no other abnormality.

Zhang Yu secretly thought it was dangerous, took out an obstacle avoidance talisman from his pocket and put it in his mouth.

This obstacle-avoiding talisman does not mean that it can only defend against miasma, as it is called. It can also block ordinary poisonous smoke and poisonous gas, unless it is particularly overbearing.

The fragrance here is not so overbearing. With the obstacle avoidance talisman, Zhang Yu will not feel dizzy if he continues to inhale the fragrance a little.

There was no movement in the yard. It was quiet. Zhang Yu looked intently. There were piles of firewood on both sides of the house, but nothing else.

Zhang Yu held the money sword and knew in his heart that the person in the room was not simple, he was definitely a master.

There is really no way to determine whether the other party knows that he has come in now, so he can only assume that he has discovered it.

The other party didn't move, so he could only go in. Zhang Yu slowly moved forward and walked towards the door.

The door was an old wooden door. Zhang Yu walked silently and came to the door directly opposite. There was a poisonous aroma in the yard. Even after I came in, there was still no movement in the house. Zhang Yu thought about it for a while and went in directly. It was obviously not appropriate and could easily be plotted against.

"I'm not here to carry out a sneak attack this time, so why hide and fight? I don't believe that any subdued master can have great abilities in an open and fair contest!"

Zhang Yu made up his mind. The house was so big anyway, and even if someone inside wanted to escape under his nose, it wouldn't be easy.

"puff!"

With a flick of his left hand, two fireballs shot out and hit the wooden board.

This ordinary wooden door must have withstood Zhang Yu's fireball. It immediately caught fire and was quickly burned to the ground. The door frame and all the wood were burned to the ground.

By the light of the fire, Zhang Yu was able to see clearly what was going on inside.

This is a main room, with something similar to an altar placed inside, but it looks very strange. There is an offering table with five-color flags of green, yellow, red, white and black hanging on it. On the offering table, there is also a earthen jar.

Apart from the altar, there is nothing else inside, and not a single person can be seen.

"Is there no one?" Zhang Yu hesitated, "It's impossible. The Nine-turn Spirit Buddha is still here, how can there be no one?"

He stepped forward slowly, getting closer and closer to the door, and everything inside could be seen more clearly.

"Is there anyone inside?" Zhang Yu stopped and said calmly when he was still three steps away from the door.

There was no sound.

"Haha." Seeing that there was no sound, Zhang Yu laughed and said, "Since there is no one, then I am offended."

As soon as he finished speaking, he waved his left hand and fired four more fireballs.

"Poof!" "Poof!" "Poof!" "Poof!"

Knowing that there was something weird here, how could Zhang Yu give his opponent a chance to sneak attack on him.

The two fireballs shot directly on the altar. The altar table was made of wood, and the flag on the altar table was made of cloth. There was no way it could withstand the fire.

The other two fireballs hit the wall, sparks burst out, and anything that could be ignited would catch fire if they touched it.

"Crack!"

Just a minute later, the altar table was burned to pieces, and the jar placed on the altar fell to the ground, shattering into pieces.

When the jar was broken, a lump of something was revealed inside. Zhang Yu looked intently, but before he could see clearly, he saw a green shadow flying towards him.

The shadow was moving so fast that Zhang Yu had no time to hide, so he hurriedly used his money sword to move across his chest to block the green shadow. The green shadow circled directly around the money sword. This time Zhang Yu could see clearly that it was a small green snake.

The little snake wrapped around the money sword, then scurried forward again, opened its mouth, and went straight to Zhang Yu's face.

Its speed is fast, and Zhang Yu's speed is not slow either. With a "pop" sound, the money sword spread out instantly.

Under the explosion of the Money Sword, the little snake was bounced into the sky. Zhang Yu waved his right hand and a pair of black scissors shot out from his cuff.

With a "swipe" sound, the little snake split into two.

"Quack!"

At this moment, another thing jumped towards Zhang Yu, but this time Zhang Yu saw it clearly, and it turned out to be a toad.

Zhang Yu just thought about it and hit the toad with the copper coins he had just scattered.

"Puff puff puff puff."

The toad was beaten to pieces, and countless red and green liquids splashed out.

When the liquid fell to the ground, it made a "chichi" sound.

As the jar was broken, there were still things inside, but the other things did not dare to rush out, but crawled elsewhere. Because he was busy dealing with small snakes and toads, Zhang Yu only saw one centipede and could not see the rest clearly.

But Zhang Yu could figure out that since there are snakes, toads, and centipedes, the other two are probably scorpions and spiders.

"Crack!"

Zhang Yu was about to take back the money sword and black scissors, but the window next to him suddenly shattered and a black figure jumped out at the same time.

"If you dare to destroy the thing that saves my life, I will take your life!" The voice reached everyone, and the black figure held a crutch in his hand. The tip of the crutch had a bright blade, and the blade glowed with a green light. It smells very poisonous.

Accompanied by the black shadow, there was also a ball of white powder floating in the air.

Zhang Yu ran to the side and hid. The black shadow was stabbed in the air, and then he raised his left hand. In his palm, a black skull appeared.

How could Zhang Yu give him another chance to attack? He just flicked his left hand and "swiped" the ground, and a rope was shot out.

There are a few people who can block the direction of Yuxu Rope. The black shadow was instantly tied up, and the phantom of the skull that emerged also disappeared.

With a "plop", the black shadow fell to the ground. Zhang Yu took a look and saw that the person who fell turned out to be a gray-haired old man.

"Who are you?" Zhang Yu asked coldly.

"It turns out you are a Taoist priest. I have no enmity with you. Why do you come to trouble me?" The old man did not answer Zhang Yu's words, but asked a question in return.

"You use the art of lowering your head to harm people, there must be an explanation," Zhang Yu said in a deep voice.

"Harmful. Hahahahaha." The old man couldn't help laughing disdainfully.

"You're laughing." Zhang Yu was about to ask, 'Why are you laughing?', but he only spoke half of his words when he suddenly heard rapid footsteps on the diagonal side of the courtyard wall.

The footsteps were so fast that Zhang Yu immediately turned around and saw a black figure standing on the wall.

The black shadow's palm was holding something unknown. He pointed it at Zhang Yu, and a green light went straight to Zhang Yu, "Poof!"

Zhang Yu was well prepared. He stretched out his hand towards the diagonal thorn and reached the place where the black scissors fell. He raised his leg and kicked the scissors on the ground towards the person on the wall.

At the same time, Zhang Yu held the Seven-Star Sword in his hand.

Before the Seven-Star Sword could take action, two screams of "uh" and "ah" were heard.

The two screams came from different places, and one came from the wall. Zhang Yu looked closely, and it turned out that the black shadow's arm fell to the ground together with the thing he was holding.

The black shadow stumbled and fell out of the yard, followed immediately by the sound of rapid footsteps.

Another scream came from Zhang Yu's side. Zhang Yu lowered his head and looked again, and saw that three blood holes had appeared on the old man who was tied up with Yuxu rope, and blood was gurgling out. Through the moonlight and firelight, you can see that there is green in the blood. Needless to say, the thing that hit the old man was highly poisonous.

"Kick, kick, kick, kick."

"Um?"

At this moment, Zhang Yu heard footsteps coming from behind the courtyard again, very fast, and it was obvious that there was someone hiding there.

Zhang Yu couldn't help but be startled, and thought to himself: "What on earth is going on?"

He looked around and then at the old man on the ground. He didn't know who he was chasing for a moment.

After just a moment of hesitation, a woman's exclamation suddenly sounded in the house, "Ah"

"There are still people!" Zhang Yu was shocked again.

"No. No, don't come. Don't come. Please save me. Don't come."

Next, the woman's frightened, panicked and pleading voice came again.

Zhang Yu could completely tell that the sound was coming from the ground inside the room.

"What's going on!" Zhang Yu muttered in his heart, waved his hand, took back the money sword and black scissors, and then looked at the old man on the ground.

The old man's eyes were still open, his face was full of pain, and he was not dead yet.

It was obvious that he wanted to struggle, but was unable to move at all under the restraints of the Yuxu rope.

"Who is that woman?" Zhang Yu said in a deep voice.

"She is my daughter. Don't hurt her. She is already very pitiful..." the old man said painfully and feebly.

"She is your daughter?" Zhang Yu naturally didn't believe what the old man said.

"I know you. No. Uh." The old man wanted to say something more, but his injury was too serious, and he lost his breath when he said this.

"What don't I have?" Zhang Yu rushed to the old man's side and asked eagerly.
