All the ancestors in the capital begged me to be a substitute

Chapter 131 Immortal Elder, You Are My Immortal Fate
"You, you, you...can you see?"

For the first time in his life, Master Su Jiu, who was always dignified and self-reliant, stuttered.

He asked cryptically, and Shen Lingxi naturally answered cryptically, "Yes."

Su Xian couldn't hide his astonishment.

Soon the astonishment turned into sharp scrutiny, not missing any of Shen Lingxi's expressions, trying to discern whether what she said was true or not.

Shen Lingxi has long been accustomed to such doubts.

In addition, she really didn't like Su Xian, so she didn't bother to talk to him, and looked at the last five dead souls.

Just at this time, Chun Jun walked in from the outside.

He has been standing by the door listening, although he can't understand what charades the two are playing, but he also knows how to add firewood to the fire.

"My uncle seldom stays in the capital. I'm afraid I don't know. This one is the famous Taoist Master Miaoling of Jinxian Temple. The Taoist master is best at exorcising evil spirits. Like my uncle, he is a Taoist."

When Su Xian heard this, his expression became more serious.

For nothing else, the title of "Miao Ling Daoist" is really well-known in the capital.

Even if he doesn't go back to Beijing often, whenever he goes to a teahouse or restaurant, there will be a storyteller telling the story of Taoist Miaoling's "lifting up the corpse to drive away evil spirits".

He originally only listened to it as a pastime, but now, people like Chun Jun, who never lie, are trying to justify his name.

The folk rumors seem to be true.

While Su Xian was thinking, he saw the little girl look away from his formation.

She raised her cold eyes, looked at him, and said expressionlessly: "It's okay, let's stop."

Xu Shi had already recognized it in his heart. At this time, Su Xian looked at the little girl in front of him, and felt that her unfazed appearance had a faint aura of independence and detachment from the world.

More importantly, the little girl has an outstanding appearance. If she wears a Taoist robe, she must be extraordinary and refined, with a fairy-like appearance.

Presumably, this is the real immortal descending to earth, and it is the fairy fate he has been looking for all these years!
Thinking of these, Su Xian felt a surge of frenzy.

Shen Lingxi didn't care about what Su Xian was thinking at all, and after telling him to retreat, he bowed to him, bid farewell to Chu Yan, took a step, and was about to go out.

"and many more."

Su Xian calmed down his thoughts, and said awkwardly, "Just now, Liulang said that the immortal chief came here this time, also at the behest of his mother?"

Shen Lingxi was dumbfounded by the "Immortal Elder".

After a few breaths, he realized that he was calling her.

"That's right." She really didn't want to talk to Su Xian at all, but when she thought of the lonely figure of her ancestor, she still said: "The old man wants you to find out the murderer for her, since you don't want to..."

"Poverty can think, you can check."

As soon as Su Xian changed his previous attitude of discussing things as they are and not having any business to do with himself, he saluted Shen Lingxi respectfully, "As long as it is what the elder said, I will definitely help you with all my strength."

Chu Yan frowned deeply.

Chun Jun and the embroidered clothes envoy also looked at each other in blank dismay.

Shen Lingxi just laughed angrily.

The co-author is convinced that she can "go to hell", so you think she is a "fairy elder"?

Can you be so humble and bow your knees?
It seems that even outsiders who devote themselves to cultivating Taoism are not exempt from vulgarity.

"Master Jiu said just now that people outside Fang only ask about worldly affairs. Did you forget what you said in the blink of an eye?"

"Pindao dare not forget." Su Xian said solemnly: "It's just that before the death of my family teacher, I did a divination for Pindao, and calculated that this year Pindao will meet the once-in-a-thousand-year fairy fate. Immortal elders can see what ordinary people can't see It must be the fairy fate of the poor Taoist. Following the experience of the immortal leader in the secular world, the Taoist law of the poor Taoist will benefit, and I hope the immortal leader will not hesitate to give me some advice."

Shen Lingxi raised her eyebrows and looked at him with a half-smile: "Ninth Master is more filial to your master and Taoism than to your ancestors."

She looked regretful: "It's a pity that I never get rid of unintentional people, so Master Ninth stopped thinking about it. It's not that Master Ninth must investigate this case. Master Ninth doesn't need to think about it, and he doesn't need to investigate. Why don't you go back to Beijing with the Embroidered Clothes Envoy and study Taoism in prison, it will be more beneficial."

After saying this, she turned and left directly.

Only Su Xian was left, stunned in place with eyes full of astonishment.

Coming out of the small temple, Shen Lingxi looked around, but did not see the figure of the old ancestor.

On the contrary, I saw a lot of dead souls wandering in this village.

Those in the temple are just a small part.

In the whole village, there are more than a dozen households, some are old and some are young. If you calculate roughly, there are nearly a hundred people.

This village has been deserted for a long time, and no one has ever done rituals here.Those dead souls are full of resentment all day long, which is also pitiful.

Leaving aside the relationship between Su Xian and his ancestors, the deeds he performed are meritorious.For these dead souls, it is also a relief.

Chu Yan strode out and walked side by side with her.

After all, Shen Lingxi is also a temperamental person, thinking of Su Xian, he still feels stuffy in his heart.

"How did Your Highness recruit Su Xian today?" She couldn't help asking.

Chu Yan: "He is obsessed with catching ghosts, and he is still short of money. I am offering a reward of a thousand taels of gold at the Heming Tower, and I invite Taoist priests to come here to catch ghosts at midnight tonight. If he gets news, he will definitely come. The embroidered clothes envoy is stationed at the entrance of the village , as long as the Taoist priests who come are not him, take them all away, block the news, and only let him in, that's what happened today."

This method is exactly the same as when he offered a reward of a thousand taels of gold to recruit the embroiderer in the Heming Tower.

The method is simple, and the gimmick is enough, and it can be spread in the shortest time, which is indeed a good move.

Shen Lingxi's eyebrows twitched slightly, "He considers himself an outsider, so he should treat money as something outside of him. Why is he short of money?"

At this moment, Shen Lingxi really wanted to find out about Su Xian, so as to warn herself not to cherish Su Xian's talents.

Chu Yan paused, as if guessing what she was thinking, his phoenix eyes slightly raised, looking at her.

"Old Wu Anbo was born as a military general, and he had many soldiers under his command. In his early years, wars broke out frequently. Those soldiers died on the battlefield. Although the imperial court provided compensation, it was not enough to make their families have no worries. In addition, the Zhao family in recent years The situation is huge, and there are repeated deductions, Su Xian came back from the mountain to practice Taoism, and found out about this, he began to secretly support those orphans, and all his money was used here."

"Originally, I always thought that he was just a lunatic's magician who liked to play tricks. Because of his chivalrous actions, although he didn't approve of his words and deeds, he never questioned his character."

Speaking of this, Chu Yan lowered his head, seeming to think it was absurd, but at the same time he thought it was funny, his thin lips curled up slightly, and a slight smile overflowed, "I never thought that I just found out tonight that his Taoism is actually true."

"Yeah." Shen Lingxi felt the same way, thinking of his appearance when he practiced the method, he couldn't help but chuckled, with a little helplessness, "It's the first time I've seen this kind of way of saving souls, I also thought he was the second 'Zhang Xianzhang' before, but I didn't expect it, I was wrong."

This was the first time for the two of them to look at each other and smile from the heart in such a relaxed atmosphere.

But soon, Shen Lingxi realized that as two people, it shouldn't be such a chatting relationship.

She hurriedly covered her lips and coughed low, hiding her smile.

She looked at the dead souls in the distance, and sighed, "Anyway, it's here... His Highness will not break his promise for the 1000 taels of gold, so just ask Su Xian to finish the ceremony tonight, and exhaust him to death." , and I can vent my anger on behalf of our ancestors."

Seeing that she was deliberately alienating her, Chu Yan's smile also disappeared from the corner of her lips, and she replied, "Okay."
