The Reporting God asked Shi Changxuan to “explain clearly” to the middle-aged man. Shi Changxuan ignored him and the Reporting God was so angry that he stopped talking and even let out a cry of pain from the anger.
Ms. Zhu didn’t know what they were talking about but they seemed to hold a grudge against the man. But when they finished asking, she asked if she could let the bodyguards take the man away.
However, Xie Lingya estimated that he would have to contact Ms. Zhu later. He suspected that the Taoist Association might also want to confirm it. Anyway, they would definitely hand over the talisman to the Taoist Association.
Mr. Zhu was still angry, so he took out his mobile phone and sent several text messages, and then gritted his teeth and said: “I can’t kill them.”
The two of them had been fighting against each other for more than ten minutes, and Ms. Zhu immediately laughed and said: “You have to make up for it, if it weren’t for me finding Teacher Xie and Daozhang Shi, and you still wanted to send them back because of that old liar you found, haha, did you give a deposit before?”
Mr. Zhu: “…”
Mr. Zhu was so angry that his face turned red. He couldn’t refute, so he could only answer the last sentence bitterly: “You don’t need to care, he will have to spit out all the money and profits, or my surname is not Zhu.”
He guessed Master Zhao must also be panicking now. Mr. Zhu just now didn’t bother to talk to him more, but there was no way he would just let it go. Who made him so immoral that he collided with Xie Lingya on the same day, if it were someone else, he might not have been exposed.
The noise of Xie Lingya’s actions was too great!
But Mr. Zhu also realized that these two were the real masters. After thinking about it, he smiled at them again and said: “You two helped my father. I have to thank you two no matter what…”
Ms. Zhu stood in front of him. She looked slim and slender, but Mr. Zhu’s size made it impossible to squeeze her away.
“Screw you.” Ms. Zhu said, then took out a red envelope from her bag and handed it to Xie Lingya, “Teacher Xie, it’s too late today. Thank you. I will go to the Taoist temple in two days to express my gratitude in person!”
As she spoke, she stepped on Mr. Zhu’s feet, and the high heels crushed them. Mr. Zhu’s face turned green in pain.
Xie Lingya thought it was funny, coughed twice and said, “Okay, let’s go then. There’s no need to send me off. I’ll just take a taxi back.”
“Okay, thank you very much.” Ms. Zhu probably didn’t want to let her brother and Xie Lingya and the others talk, but her brother wanted to talk alone with them immediately, and he hadn’t left the apartment yet.
….
Xie Lingya and the two left the apartment. It was already a little late, but Shi Changxuan called immediately and informed his family that they had found a talisman with the Du Gong seal and about the person who raised the Liu Lingtong.
Shi Changxuan discussed with his family on the phone. They split into two groups. The family would go to the high-speed rail station to check the passenger information of that train, and also to see if they could find surveillance cameras so that the middle-aged man could identify whether they were the same person.
On the other hand, Shi Changxuan also decided to rush to Boshan overnight.
For this kind of thing, the earlier the better, as he had some bad premonitions.
Although many people went sightseeing in Boshan to enjoy the scenery, the mountains were high and the forests were deep, and there were many strange things there. In ancient times, there was a mass grave on one of the hills. Like the last time He Zun and his classmates traveled there, they encountered something that looked like a mountain monster. Fortunately, Xie Lingya assisted from a distance and allowed them to escape.
The middle-aged man must have gone to Boshan last week because he wanted to recruit some dead souls from the mountains and forests.
If the person who stole the Du Gong seal went there, he was probably up to no good.
As for Xie Lingya, regardless of whether because Shi Changxuan had helped him or because he had clues worth more than one million, he would definitely go with him. The two of them also went back to Baoyang Temple first to get some more talismans and other things just in case.
At this time, there must be no shuttle bus. Boshan belonged to the neighboring province. It was neither too far nor too close, so the two of them chartered a taxi to go there.
The driver was actually not willing to go that far. It was impossible for anyone to return to Qiyang at this point in Boshan. It was difficult to get customers on the return trip, but they paid more and he accepted.
“Are you two going to play? If you want to see the sunrise, you have to go up there a whole day early. It’s already past ten o’clock, and it will be even later when you get there.” The driver asked them while talking to them.
Xie Lingya was arranging the things in his bag. He was in a hurry when he came out just now, so he just stuffed them in randomly. He checked to see if there was anything he had forgotten. When he heard the driver’s question, he smiled and said: “No, I used to work there, and isn’t there a hotel at the foot of the mountain?”
“Oh, what’s your job? You want to go there overnight?” The driver asked again, “And you have to book the hotel in advance. Why are you still holding a wooden sword? Is this a handicraft?”
Xie Lingya saw him staring at the rearview mirror and nodded vaguely.
The driver wanted to ask how he could bring such a large handicraft to play. At this time, the car ran over a stone. With a bump, a bunch of ghost coins and a few talismans fell out from Xie Lingya’s full bag.
Driver: “…”
“…” Xie Lingya also picked up everything in embarrassment.
He felt that the driver might be muttering to himself at this moment, how could the two passengers become charlatans at such young ages.
If he had known that he would not have talked to them just now, Xie Lingya simply closed his eyes and rested his mind. As a result, he fell asleep with his eyes closed. It wasn’t until Shi Changxuan pushed him awake that he realized that he was leaning on Shi Changxuan.
“I’m sorry.” Xie Lingya rubbed his eyes to wake himself up.
It was already past twelve o’clock, and the two got out of the car with their things.
At this point, there must be no cable car. The two of them walked up the mountain. Their plan was to recruit a local ghost to ask them to see if they could get some clues.
The hotel was probably the only one with people in Boshan late at night, but considering that they were afraid of scaring people, they decided to walk a little further into the mountain. At this time, the mountain road was empty, and there were no street lights in this section. Fortunately, Xie Lingya brought a flashlight.
“Du Gong Seal can restrain ghosts and gods. If he prints it on a talisman, he can recruit so many soldiers and horses. Do you think that after this man has stayed in Boshan for a few days, how many ghosts he could have recruited?” Xie Lingya felt more worried. The worst thing was, if this person really recruited a lot of Yin soldiers, what would he use them for?
You know, if the person they met at the high-speed rail station was really the person who stole the Du Gong seal, according to the prediction of the Phytophthora God, this person may not do many good things, and his Liu Lingtong would all “help the tiger”.
Shi Changxuan had no way of knowing, as now they couldn’t even determine the identity of that person.
He was also a little confused, and suddenly the scream of the Phytolacca God suddenly sounded in his ears, “There are gangsters! There are gangsters!”
The Phytolacca God was already angry on the road so he had been silent before. Now he suddenly screamed and Shi Changxuan was still thinking about Du Gong Seal, so without thinking about what it meant, he looked around.
Xie Lingya was thinking something when he suddenly felt someone touching his waist. He immediately turned to look at Shi Changxuan.
In the vast darkness, Shi Changxuan and him looked at each other.
Xie Lingya: “…did you touch me just now?”
Shi Changxuan: “…”
Shi Changxuan: “No.”
“Very good.” Xie Lingya knew that Shi Changxuan could not do that kind of thing, so he paused. Just now, he felt a hand touch his waist very lightly.
He swept the flashlight around, and the mountain wind happened to blow by, shaking the leaves and making a rustling sound. He didn’t know what was hidden in the darkness.
Only then did Shi Changxuan understand what the Phytolacca God meant.
If the Phytolacca god could move, he would probably be beating his chest right now: “I didn’t predict clearly, I am a bad Phytolacca god.”
This was the first time that the Phytolacca god thought that he was at fault. He was so excited that he couldn’t write a limerick, so he shouted with emphasis on the three words “there is a gangster”, but unfortunately he failed to stop someone who didn’t know what he was doing…taking advantage of Xie Lingya!
Shi Changxuan finally cleared the road, and then frowned slightly and said: “You are still young, practice more.”
When the Phytolacca God was in a fragile state, he was comforted by Shi Changxuan’s words. He was greatly moved and vowed: “I I will definitely never let Xie Lingya be taken advantage of again—”
Shi Changxuan: “…”
Bundle.
Shi Changxuan said: “Let it be.”
They had originally planned to find someone to talk to, and now they had bumped into someone, so they were welcome.
“Okay.” Xie Lingya said again, “Speaking of which, do you still remember that time when He Zun was here, something touched his waist.”
He also touched his female classmate’s butt…
Shi Changxuan was also listening from the side at that time, knowing that he meant that it might be the same thing, he nodded.
“At that time, I really wanted to know what it was that was touching them, and whether it was consistent with my guess.”
Xie Lingya said, then opening his backpack, he poured out a bunch of spiritual talismans from it and pulled out his sword to move around. He stepped forward, and then said threateningly in the direction of the swaying trees: “Are you going to come out by yourself, or should I help you?”
The trees stopped swaying and fell into a deathly silence.
After a while, a dark, short guy actually appeared and crawled out…
“It’s really a mountain ghost, Maple Ghost.” Xie Lingya picked it up. Although the mystery was revealed after such a long time, there was still a sense of joy in guessing it right.
There were two types of maple ghosts, one was that the maple tree had a spirit for a long time, and the other was that the maple leaves had bumps that looked like human faces, and the ghost attached to them became a maple ghost.
This one was probably the latter.
It was just that you couldn’t tell the gender from the appearance, because the maple tree had no gender, and there may be more than one ghost attached to the maple tree. This was a hybrid product.
This maple ghost kept bowing to Xie Lingya’s hand, acknowledging his mistake, and his movements were a little awkward, but his voice was more male, “I didn’t see Mt. Tai, I’m stupid, I…”
I have never seen so many spiritual talismans in my life!
Xie Lingya said happily: “Don’t you know, this is the second time we have dealt with each other. Once before, my friend came here to play with his classmates and was touched on the waist. Then I chanted a spell through the mobile phone to drive them away. That one was also you, right?”
Maple ghost: “…”
He regretted it even more now and wanted to chop off his hand.
“I let you run away last time, so what is supposed to come will always come.” Xie Lingya put the Maple Ghost down, “However, if you give up your merits, I will spare you.”
Maple Ghost went to Xie Lingya, hugged him on his calf and said softly: “I will listen to Master from now on -“
His eyes turned a few times to the Reporting God, and he had already seen that it was a wood spirit. He thought Maple Ghost could be considered half a wood spirit. If Ling could be like Phytophaga and cultivate merit by following the master, wouldn’t it be more accomplished than touching tourists in the mountains every day?
What’s more, this master is so fierce and looks very powerful at first glance.
Xie Lingya felt a chill and blocked him, “Go, I just want to ask you a few questions!”
The Phytolacca God had expected it, and at this time he also said condescendingly: “Bah.”
The Maple Ghost sat upright in disappointment and raised his dark face, “What do you want to ask?”
Xie Lingya said, “This week, have you seen anyone with a Liu Lingtong?”
The Maple Ghost nodded immediately, “Yes, they are very fierce, I don’t dare to get close.”
