Chapter 205
205 First night at the haunted house
Shenluo city became more and more lively in the Twilight. The men and women on the streets were all walking happily. Even though it was early winter, there were still various stalls on both sides of the road. On both sides of the main road that ran from north to south, the flower Street was even more crowded with tourists.
Although there was still more than a month before the official start of the flower City conference, many tourists from the South and North had already arrived here. At night, when the doors of the brothels opened, the first thing they did was to release a warm air that carried the fragrance of cosmetics.
At this time, the scholars on the street often felt that it was too cold outside and had to enter the brothel to get some warmth.
However, when they arrived at the brothel, they often felt that the heater was too hot, so they had to take off their clothes to cool down.
After taking off his clothes, he would often feel cold and needed to move around.
In the end …
It was all because of the weather in shenluo city. It was really hard to predict.
The shop assistant led Li Chu and the Fox girl to the mansion in the south of the city, which was said to be haunted, and they talked a lot on the way.
“The ghost in the house is strange. It wasn’t a particularly powerful evil spirit. The first time it was haunted, the host asked the immortals of the nearby Taoist temples to get rid of it. ”
“At that time, I thought it was over, but who knew that the second night was haunted again. After that, it didn’t stop every night, and I couldn’t kill them all. The host’s family had no choice but to invite a xiuzhe to stay at home for a few days, but they still couldn’t find a reason. Helplessly, he could only sell the house. Otherwise, how could such a good mansion be sold at such a cheap price?”
“Haunted every night, you can’t kill them all?”
Li Chu’s eyes lit up even more.
The shop assistant looked at his sudden excitement and thought,”why does this little Daoist feel that something is wrong?”
However, seeing that he also seemed to be cultivating, the shop assistant did not try to persuade him. According to Li Chu and the manager’s discussion, they would stay here for the night. If they felt that it was okay, they would discuss the details of the handover tomorrow.
After bringing Li Chu to the mansion in the south of the city, the shop assistant handed Li Chu a bunch of keys.
“There’s a mark on each key, so you can go in on your own. If you’re interested, come back to our shop tomorrow. If Qianqian has something to do, just go out and run forward. There is a southern city Temple Qianqian not far away.”
The waiter said a few more words. It was getting late, and a cold wind blew over, making him shiver.
“Alright, thank you.” Li Chu took the key and nodded.
The waiter quickly left.
Li Chu brought the Fox girl into the house and took a look.
However, he didn’t know. This mansion looked much bigger than the sandbox. Once he entered, it was extremely wide. The courtyard was empty, and there was only a well. It looked quite clean. After crossing over, the backyard was even wider, and there were corridors connecting the wing rooms.
“Such a big house, it can be renovated into a Daoist temple. It will be very stylish,” the Fox girl said happily.
“Yes.” Li Chu agreed and put down his bag, ” “Let’s observe the situation first.”
He used his heart to scan the area, but did not find any place with dense Yin Qi in front and behind the house, so he simply gave up looking.
Instead, he took a chair and sat down in the courtyard. He placed the sword pouch on his lap and closed his eyes.
He crossed his sword before his knees and closed his eyes to rest.
Then, the sky gradually darkened. The sun had set.
In the well in the yard, a gust of Yin Qi gradually emerged from the water. The strange thing was that this ball of Yin Qi seemed to have appeared out of thin air. He had never encountered such a situation before.
Wuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwu
A hand covered in cold air grabbed the edge of the well. The nails of the pale hand were broken, and the blood and flesh were a mess, as if it had been grabbed from the bottom of the well.
there’s the smell of living people …
Accompanied by a faint ghostly cry, a face covered in black hair slowly rose up, followed by a plain white dress.
PA.
With her black hair covering her face and her white clothes on the ground, the woman climbed out of the well and moved forward on all four limbs in a strange posture.
She smelled it, she saw it.
There was the smell of fresh living people in front of him.
She slowly approached him.
Li Chu opened his eyes and quietly observed the ghostly being.
It was a little strange. How exactly were these ghosts born?
The ghostly being also raised its eyes to size Li Chu up.
It was a little strange. Wasn’t this person afraid of him?
The two sides stared at each other, and the scene fell into a strange stalemate.
After a long while, the ghost felt that it was a little embarrassed and felt that it should be more confident.
Anyway, she moved first.
She shook her head, letting her Scarlet eyes penetrate through her hair, and said in a gloomy voice, ” “I died so miserably …”
“How did he die?” Li Chu’s expression did not change as he replied, ” “Start explaining.”
Eh?
The female ghost’s simple intelligence obviously didn’t record how to deal with this kind of reaction.
Thus, she used an even colder voice and roared, ” “I’ve been waiting for you for a long time …”
“Oh? Really?” Li Chu remained emotionless and shook his head. “I don’t believe you.”
The female ghost was completely enraged.
I’ve climbed up from the bottom of a well, and you think I’m here to chat with you?
In a fit of anger, she exerted strength on all four of her limbs, twisted her body, and charged at Li Chu at lightning speed!
Li Chu was not afraid of these ghostly creatures that were equivalent to dozens of lantern monsters, but he was still very afraid.
Because Yingluo
If he didn’t control his strength well, he could destroy the house.
This would be their own Taoist temple in the future.
Thus, he carefully took out the pure yang sword and carefully squeezed out a tenth of his Ling power. He carefully handed it over, his Ling power drawing on it without any disturbance.
Bang!
The ghosts that came into contact with the tip of the sword exploded. However, the thick pure yang sword Qi still managed to shatter a few of the bricks on the ground after killing the ghosts.
“AI.”
Li Chu sighed silently.
It seemed that he still needed to practice his micro-operation.
However, one-tenth of the spiritual power was already too weak, and it was really difficult to extract a smaller part.
In response to this situation,
Li Chu pondered for a moment and felt that ‘dilution’ might be a solution.
However, as to how to dilute the spiritual power and whether it was feasible, he still had to go through a long trial.
After a while, the Fox girl came out of the room and asked, ” “Master, has everything been settled?”
“Yes, I can tell master now.” Li Chu nodded lightly.
The Fox girl did as she was told and took out a Jade furnace from her bag. She also took out three long incense sticks and inserted them into the Jade furnace before lighting them up.
Smoke rose.
The upward smoke floated for a while and suddenly condensed in the air, turning into an ethereal human face. It gradually revealed the scene in the backyard of deyun temple.
The Chinese scholar tree, the stone table, and the old Daoist under the tree.
It turned out that the Jade furnace was the treasure that Li Chu had brought back from the gourd cave abode. It could be used together with a magical mirror that he had obtained later on.
The magical mirror was now in Yu Qi ‘an’s hands, and the object facing the magical mirror could be presented in the smoke.
However, in Yu Qi ‘an’s hand, the magical mirror showed Li Chu’s appearance.
It was a rather practical communication spiritual artifact.
“Master.”
Li Chu called out softly when he saw the familiar old face that exuded the air of a master.
“Hehe, it’s already dark? How is it, is it smooth?” Yu Qi ‘an asked.
“Everything is going well.” “The deyun sub-temple should be established soon,” Li Chu said.
“That’s good.” Yu Qi ‘an stroked his beard and smiled. it’s a long way to go to open up a sub-temple in a strange place. You still have to be careful. Other than being careful of evil, you also have to be careful of your peers.”
“This disciple understands.” Li Chu replied.
“Oh right, before I left, I gave Xiao Bai three silk pouches. Are they well-kept?” The old Daoist asked again.
“Yes, he is.” The Fox girl nodded immediately.
She took out three exquisitely-made silk pouches from her bag and raised them for Yu Qi ‘an to see. They were all bulging, and she didn’t know what was inside.
“I can’t go there personally, but those three brocade sachets can be considered a small help from me. If you encounter any difficulties that you can’t solve, just open one.” Yu Qi ‘an warned.
“Of course, don’t open it if you have nothing to do. Don’t open it all at once, use it sparingly.”
“Yes.”
“Also, don’t just focus on business.” Yu Qi ‘an smiled again and said,”you have to balance work and rest. Go out more often.” I heard that the quality of last year’s top ten courtesans was very high. Hua qiluo and Yuan yayi should be participating again this year. They are very famous in the Hangzhou Prefecture. Hehe, if I were 20 years younger …”
“Master, the incense doesn’t last much longer.” Li Chu looked at the incense that had already burned down by one percent and said indifferently, ” “Let’s talk again next time, Yueyue.”
Yu Qi ‘an sighed and finally said, ” “No matter what, you must bring my son back safely.”
“Yes.” “I will bring Guo xiaobao back to deyun temple safely,” Li Chu nodded solemnly.
