[The collection and recommendations are enough to add more updates, which will be posted in the afternoon and evening. I hope everyone will continue to support! 】
As if she was startled by Li Xiao's shouting, the female ghost stopped crying and slowly turned around.
An illusory, pale and pretty face appeared in front of Li Xiao. Two tears of blood streaked across the face, but it didn't have much of a scary flavor. However, it had a kind of enchanting softness, and her figure was also excellent. She was dressed in black professional attire, showing her gracefulness.
Graceful, these are obviously the clothes she wore during her lifetime.
I think this female ghost was also a very beautiful type in life, but some dirty-minded Mr. Qian saw her and decided to find a way to overthrow her.
But the current situation is obviously that she refuses to give in, causing people to have evil thoughts, so she was taken to this remote place, ready to fight in the mountains. She doesn't want to be bumped into by the troublesome Shi Qingfan, and he takes action in an annoying way, so she
He and Shi Qingfan suffered a collective tragedy, with one dead and the other injured.
There were some obscene thoughts in his mind, which really made Li Xiao guess a lot.
"Taoist priest...ah!" As soon as the female ghost opened her mouth to speak, she saw one of the peach blossom rosary beads on Li Xiao's wrist suddenly erupting into a puff of pink smoke, which instantly enveloped an area of several meters in radius.
The female ghost screamed, and as soon as the pink smoke disappeared, she led the female ghost back to the rosary.
Regarding this phenomenon, Li Xiao was a little confused. He stood blankly for a moment, then came back to his senses and murmured to himself: "Do you want it to be so simple? Master Dao has not shown anything yet!"
In fact, it was so easy to collect the female ghost into the rosary. First, the peach blossom rosary did have miraculous effects and was specifically targeted at female ghosts. Second, the female ghost seemed to have no resistance at all. Just when she wanted to say something, she was suddenly attacked.
The pink smoke enveloped me and instantly brought me into the rosary.
"This peach blossom rosary is really a treasure! Hmm~? It seems that the old Taoist has a lot of treasures! Let's go back and cheat a few more for fun. It's still a bit troublesome for this naughty guy to insist on money, but...hehe
!" While sighing at the sharpness of the rosary, Li Xiao was still thinking about the old Taoist's private goods, and even thought about asking for them without paying.
After a while of laughter, Li Xiao saw that the female ghost had also been caught. Although it was a bit simple and outrageous, as long as the result was right, it would be fine! There was nothing to stay here, so he turned around and walked out of the forest.
Humming a tuneless tune, Li Xiao clasped his hands behind his back, took a figure-eight step, and walked out arrogantly, shocking everyone outside the forest.
I saw the villagers outside the forest, all with strange expressions, and almost at the same time, a voice sounded in their hearts: "How old is this guy? Has it been more than ten minutes! Could your sister have gone to the forest?
Squat down! Don't tell us that the female ghost has been caught! Otherwise...!"
"The unscrupulous person is honored! Fortunately, the poor man has lived up to his fate! The female ghost has been subdued, everyone can rest assured! Is it time to talk about remuneration now?" Li Xiao came to the crowd with pretense, and made a weird opening statement,
Then the issue of remuneration was brought up.
In an instant, everyone's expressions changed and they looked at Li Xiao strangely. Someone asked: "Did you really catch that female ghost? You didn't lie to us!"
"If you really catch me, what's the point of deceiving you? Or will there be rewards for deceiving you?"
Everyone suddenly laughed, and then walked forward collectively, surrounding Li Xiao. A big man with tanned skin, thick eyebrows twitching, laughed and said: "Of course! I tricked us into specifying...
There is a reward! Come on, brothers, beat this bastard to death!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the gang of men involuntarily pushed Li Xiao to the ground, followed by a series of punches and kicks.
He curled up on the ground, protecting his vital parts, and Li Xiao was so angry in his heart! He meowed, "Master Tao is kind enough to catch ghosts for you, so forget it without giving him any reward, but he even gave Master Tao a good punch."
It's just that my uncle can't bear it, but my aunt can't bear it anymore! If I don't make you pay a bloody price, you don't know how powerful Dao Master is!
"Damn it! Stop! Listen to me~!" Li Xiao shouted loudly while holding his head on the ground. However, the pain that kept coming from his body clearly meant that no one paid him any attention. In anger, Li Xiao said angrily
: "Then don't blame me! Tamad, damn that female ghost, come out to me~!"
When the people who were beating Li Xiao heard this, they were about to laugh when they saw a burst of pink smoke, and instantly an illusory female figure appeared, floating in the middle of the crowd, above Li Xiao.
As soon as the female ghost appeared, she smiled softly at everyone, and she was immediately filled with charm.
It's just that no one in this group of villagers knew how to appreciate the sudden scene. They just heard someone say "Oh my God" and ran away, while others were also awakened and immediately dispersed like birds and beasts.
Li Xiao, with a bruised nose and swollen face, and big muddy footprints all over his body, got up from the ground and saw that the villagers had long since disappeared from sight, but there was still a thin and old figure running away trying to escape.
Li Xiao smiled, but his face was bruised and he was grinning in pain. He immediately called out to the female ghost and quickly caught up with the figure who was running slowly and lagging behind.
He ran directly in front of him and blocked the road. When he saw that the backward figure was the old man Shi who invited him, Li Xiao suddenly smiled again, but his face was bruised again. It was really painful.
Quickly reaching out to cover his face, Li Xiao angrily stared at the old man who was smiling awkwardly there, and said: "Old man, it seems that you invited me to be a ghost, right? See if that is a ghost? Regarding the violent incident that just happened, you
Do you want to give me an explanation?"
With an old face full of wrinkles, Old Man Shi looked at the floating female ghost next to Li Xiao. His heart twitched and he almost lost his breath. He said bitterly in his heart: "I am already so old.
, Why are you here to join in the fun! Fortunately, I am in good health and don’t have a heart disease, otherwise I wouldn’t be scared to death here!”
Old Man Shi also didn't expect that this little Taoist priest could really catch the female ghost. If he had known this, he wouldn't have tried so hard just now!
"Haha~haha! Misunderstanding~This is all a misunderstanding! Little Taoist Priest, listen to me...!"
"Hehe~! Hiss~! You didn't listen to me just now? It was quite harsh! Don't blame me, who told you to run slowly!"
"Don't~ don't! My old bones can't stand the torture...ah!"
…
In Old Man Shi's home, the light bulbs were turned off at this time, and only one candle was lit, making the room a little dark.
At this time, a room full of farm men stood with their heads down, like children who had made mistakes, waiting for the young man sitting on the kang to scold them.
Li Xiao, with a bruised nose and a swollen face, sat on the kang of Old Man Shi's house with a black face and gently flicked the muddy footprints on his Taoist robe with one hand.
The female ghost was floating behind Li Xiao, erratic from left to right, quietly watching everything that happened in front of her.
In fact, Li Xiao also thought about putting away the female ghosts, but thinking of the fighting power of these male uncles, he did not put away the female ghosts. After all, it was safer this way. Otherwise, if he got emotional during the negotiation later,
, who can guarantee that these men will not commit violence again? It is better to be on guard.
Old Man Shi stood in front of the Tukang with a helpless look on his face. With his ravaged, skinny, and calloused hands, he gently rubbed his chin with loose beard and red skin. Tears flowed in his heart, and he thought to himself: "Is it easy for me? Poor me.
My precious beard! This calf’s nose is really easy to remove!”
Slowly adjusting his robes, Li Xiao glanced at the male uncles in front of him, and said in a casual tone: "Uncles, tell me about it! You guys feel so good about beating me!"
"Misunderstanding...!"
"That little Taoist priest, we didn't do it on purpose. Look...you could have beaten me up, too!"
"How about we pay for your soup and medicine?"
…
Looking at the embarrassment on the honest faces of the middle-aged men, Li Xiao suddenly felt that this was unscrupulous? Why bother to embarrass these honest and simple people?
In fact, he was a little angry after being beaten up by Fatty for no apparent reason, but he didn't think about pursuing it too much. He just wanted to save some face, but when he saw such a scene, he didn't want to make any more trouble.
For a moment, he was no longer in the mood to play any more, so Li Xiao said: "Uncles, don't do this! I didn't tell you what to do? Just treat it like you loosen up your muscles and bones for me, but... I've caught this ghost, and now
I’m still floating in front of you, so you have to give me some reward, right?”
"Of course, of course! We will prepare a big red envelope for the little Taoist priest later!" When he saw Li Xiao flipping the page, Old Man Shi responded quickly, regardless of the pain on his chin.
Looking at the middle-aged men who all breathed a sigh of relief, Li Xiao was quite moved by their simplicity. When he heard that Old Man Shi was going to give himself a red envelope, he thought to himself that the red envelope would be of little use, but it would not be of much use to him.
, then said: "Forget it about the red envelope. If I come to the village for a meal or something, don't charge me any money!"
"That's... no matter what, the little Taoist priest is also the benefactor of our village. How can he charge you money for a meal or something?" Old Man Shi said immediately, feeling happy in his heart. It's not easy to save money in the mountains!
You don’t need to pack red envelopes, which saves you a lot of money!
The other villagers also nodded in agreement. In their hearts, they felt that a meal was worth a lot of money. Not to mention that the little Taoist caught a ghost in his village and saved the village! He was just a stranger who accidentally walked here and had a meal.
There is no charge for meals!
However, the little Taoist caught a ghost for the village and refused to accept the red envelope. He and others even gave him a beating and refused to hold him accountable. Everyone immediately felt that the little Taoist was a good person! If they knew that the clan leader always touched his chin, his chin would be red.
The red ones were not mosquito bites as they thought.
The suddenly sparse beard did not fall off naturally, but because he was running slowly and was caught by Li Xiao and had to pull it out. I wonder if they will still think that Li Xiao is a good person?
"Well, it's getting late, everyone, let's go back!" Seeing that there was nothing else to do, Li Xiao said.
After all this back and forth, it was already past nine o'clock in the evening, and at this point in the mountain village, it was time to turn off the lights and go to bed. But today, in order to catch ghosts, or to prevent Li Xiao from cheating money and escaping, everyone didn't even have dinner!
