Chapter 72 Practices
After Du Sheng officially became a disciple, moved into the Taoist temple and was assigned to work as a handyman by his unscrupulous master, the Taoist temple returned to its former peace, and no one visited the Taoist temple anymore.
Three days passed quietly. During his leisure time, Li Xiao also kept an eye on the shadow bee who flew out to follow Wang Yi. However, as Wang Qian's personal bodyguard, he rarely traveled alone and did not want to face him now. For the time being, there was no opportunity to attack Li Xiao from the Wang family.
That afternoon, a black ordinary car arrived at Fulongqiu, and an ordinary-looking young man wearing hotel uniforms got out of the car.
This young man's name is Qi Fan, a manager of the Qianyuan Hotel. He came here because his boss, Wang Gan, sent him to invite the Taoist priest here to perform rituals for the hotel.
Qi Fan walked up to Fulongqiu. When he came to the mountain gate, he saw two Taoist boys sitting cross-legged on both sides of the door.
"What are you here for?" Qingfeng stood up and asked when he saw someone coming up the mountain.
"I was sent by the Qianyuan Hotel to invite the patrons here to perform rituals." Qi Fan said, while looking up at the plaque.
Lotus Temple? Qi Fan wondered, since when did such a Taoist temple exist in Linshan? I don’t know what the boss was thinking, but he didn’t even invite a famous master, and he had to come to this remote village to invite one. The nameless viewer! Is he really some kind of expert?
"Come with me!" Qingfeng said, then turned around and took Qi Fan into the Taoist temple.
Arriving outside the Lotus Hall, Qingfeng shouted into the hall: "Master, the person you mentioned is here!"
"Bring him in!" Li Xiao's voice came from the hall.
Sitting cross-legged on the futon in the hall, like an old monk sitting still, Li Xiao closed his eyes slightly and seemed to be wandering in the world; in fact, at this time, Li Xiao was secretly thinking: This Wang Qian has no sense of time. , Dunima didn’t send someone until late in the afternoon, so the Taoist priest stayed here pretending for most of the day.
"Are you the master of the temple?" As Qingfeng entered the hall, Qi Fan was surprised when he saw the only young Taoist priest in the hall. He thought to himself that such a young Taoist priest could do such a crappy ritual!
In Qi Fan's view, the reason why these rich bosses invite eminent monks to perform rituals is just to seek self-comfort, and they don't care about it at all! Although these things are completely dispensable, they are not necessary. What kind of young Taoist priest can you please?
"What? Don't I look like you?" Li Xiao said calmly.
"No, let's go now!" Qi Fan didn't think about the boss's intention. He was just here to pick up the person. He just wanted to take the person back. It didn't matter whether he could bluff people or not!
"Qingfeng, go to the Taohua Taoist Temple and get the magic weapon of this temple master, and then call Baihua." Li Xiao stood up and said to Qingfeng beside him.
After hearing this, Qingfeng exited the hall directly.
Not long after, Qingfeng returned with a mahogany sword and some messy yellow paper charms.
Li Xiao asked Taohua Taoist to help him make these. The Taomu Sword was carved from random peach wood. As for the yellow paper charms, they were naturally drawn by Taohua Taoist at Li Xiao's request. In addition to looking very stylish, but In fact, it has no effect at all.
After taking the mahogany sword and talisman paper, Li Xiao raised his feet and walked out of the palace.
Qi Fan, who was basically ignored, saw this and followed him out.
…
Qianyuan Hotel is located in the prosperous area of Linshan. It is only a six-story hotel, but the interior is luxuriously decorated. Everywhere is magnificent. In the hall, under the light, several pots of green plants and bonsais are decorated, and some precious vases are placed. display.
On the wall covered with antique wallpaper, there is an ink painting hanging at regular intervals.
At this time, in the hotel, employees are performing their duties and preparing for the opening tomorrow.
In the hotel lobby, the Turks placed a table, covered with a bright yellow tablecloth, on which were placed incense burners, candles, and tribute drinks; there was also a tied big red rooster lying quietly on the table.
On a sofa for guests to rest, Wang Qian sat quietly, and Wang Yi stood behind him.
As night fell, Qi Fan took Li Xiao and Baihua into the Qianyuan Hotel.
"Li Xiao, things are ready, can you start?" Seeing Li Xiao, Wang Qian stood up and said.
"We can start right away, but for a while, you have to stay away, otherwise it will be bad if I accidentally hurt you!" Li Xiao said, and walked towards the altar in the center of the hall.
Standing in front of the altar, Li Xiao held the mahogany sword in his right hand and played with it a few times, then looked at Wang Qian.
Seeing Li Xiao's eyes, Wang Qian didn't say anything, took a few steps back, and then looked at him calmly.
In fact, the reason why Wang Qian invited Li Xiao to perform rituals was just to watch it as a performance, and he did not believe in the gods and ghosts, he was just looking for fun.
Seeing Wang Qian and others retreating, Li Xiao smiled, lit the incense candle, and then waved the peach wood sword around. His other hand made some weird gestures from time to time, and then twisted a few The talisman paper is lit on a candle and then thrown into the air.
For a while, smoke filled the air, and Li Xiao was jumping up and down, making these strange movements, and mumbling something in his mouth, but his voice was a little soft, and his pronunciation was a little weird, so he stood a little further away. Wang Qian couldn't understand what he was talking about.
If you get closer and listen carefully, you can hear Li Xiao there, talking nonchalantly: "Your sister's Wang Qian, your sister's Qianyuan Hotel, let's see the Taoist show off his treasures! You will be interested in it soon!"
"The unscrupulous man, Taoist Master, is cheating and abducting you today. Don't be helpless. All the gods and devils in the sky and on earth, come here and sit here if you have nothing to do...!"
After dancing like this for a long time, Li Xiao saw that he was almost done, so he waved his sleeves and called it a day.
Holding the mahogany sword upside down, Li Xiao walked directly to Wang Qian, wiped the non-existent sweat from his forehead, and said: "Brother Qian, it's done!"
"Yes!" Wang Qian responded, and then waved to Wang Yi who was standing aside.
As soon as Wang realized it, he reached out and took out a red envelope from his coat pocket and handed it to Wang Qian's hand.
"This is the red envelope for your ritual, don't be too little!" Wang Gan handed the red envelope directly to Li Xiao and said immediately.
In fact, Wang Gan watched Li Xiao dance for a long time. He was very interested at first and thought it was a circus watching a comedy show. But as time went by, he felt bored and secretly blamed himself for inviting him to dance when he had nothing to do. Great God!
Seeing that Li Xiao had finally called it a day, Wang Qian just wanted to give his brother a red envelope and then drive him away to avoid being upset.
Touching the bulging red envelope, Li Xiao took it into his arms with a smile and said with a smile: "Since my god is so kind, I won't be polite either! Haha~!"
"Well, I won't see you off if I have something else to do." Wang Qian said calmly.
"No need to send it off, no need to send it off!" Li Xiao said and walked out of the hotel, but thinking in his heart: "Hey, Master Dao still has some unfinished business, how can he just leave like this!"
Li Xiao had just taken a few steps when all the lights in the hotel suddenly went out, plunging him into darkness.
They were doing rituals, but this sudden strange phenomenon shocked everyone in the hotel, and they couldn't help but think about some supernatural events.
In the brief chaos, the emergency lights were turned on, bringing some dim light to the hotel lobby.
As soon as he returned his gaze, the employees in the hotel hurriedly ran to the people closest to him and looked around cautiously.
At this time, Wang Qian frowned, how could a good hotel lose power? This is simply unreasonable!
"Woo... I died so miserably!" A shrill voice, a sudden sound, echoed in the silent lobby, making everyone present feel a chill in their backs.
"Ah~!" Suddenly a young female employee looked above her head in horror, screamed, and ran away from the hotel like crazy.
All the hotel employees were frightened by the shrill voice, and when they heard the girl's scream, they all looked up.
I saw a looming figure floating there at the top of the lobby, and I could vaguely see two tears of blood flowing down.
These employees were ordinary people who had never seen such a scene. They immediately screamed in terror and fled frantically out of the hotel for fear of being caught by the female ghost.
Although Wang Qian was a little afraid, he was more disbelieving. He was an atheist and did not believe in the existence of ghosts in this world. In his opinion, this must be a projection created by someone using high technology. That's all.
Wang Yi, who was on the side, suddenly frowned after seeing the female ghost, turned around and pulled Wang Qian away from the hotel.
"Wang Yi, what are you doing?" Wang Qian, who was dragged out, said angrily.
"Master, I'm afraid that's really a female ghost! It's better to avoid it first and let Li Xiao catch the ghost!" Wang Yi said.
At this time, Li Xiao was standing in the lobby of the hotel, pretending to be surprised as he looked at the female ghost floating in the sky.
"Li Xiao, I'll leave this place to you. Catch this female ghost for me, and I'll give you a big red envelope!" Wang Qian said as he passed by Li Xiao, and then followed Wang Yi out of the hotel.
Turning to look at Wang Qian's leaving figure, Li Xiao had a strange smile on his face and muttered in his heart: "This is the female ghost released by Master Tao. It's so easy to catch! It seems like your money is worth it. Master Dao has no ability to earn it!"
These things were basically done by Li Xiao, and the female ghost was naturally Tao Yiyi; as for why the hotel suddenly lost power, it has to talk about Shadow Bee. When Li Xiao called it a day, he waved his sleeves at the end , which is releasing the Shadow Bees.
After dozens of Shadow Bees flew out invisibly, they found the hotel's main power switch, and then pushed down the switch with all their strength, causing a power outage in the hotel.
When Li Xiao was the only one left in the hotel, Tao Yiyi quietly floated down and came to Li Xiao.
Suspended one foot above the ground, Tao Yiyi smiled gently at Li Xiao and said: "How is it? Boss, is my performance okay?"
