From the World of Uncle Nine, The Heavens Summon Gods to Refining Generals

Chapter 102 White Shadow in the Back Garden

"Oh, this... okay!"

Seeing that Shen Lipu had already mentioned this, Butler Li couldn't say anything more, so he had to agree.

If it was for other reasons, that would be fine. You could talk to them again and ask them to invite Uncle Jiu, but since they have already said that they want the two apprentices to practice, Uncle Jiu will probably not come back.

"Fortunately, Daochang Shen is still here, so now I can deal with the master."

Butler Li thought silently in his heart.

Afterwards, Shen Chenlipu asked Qiu Sheng and Wencai to pack their things, and the three of them followed Butler Li to Li Village next door.

The village of Lizhuang is said to be next door, but in fact it is not right next to Renjia Town. It is separated from Renjia Town by two villages and a river, and there is a hill in the middle that cannot be called a mountain.

The total distance was quite short, and it only took an hour for everyone to walk over mountains and rivers.

"Come on, come on, please come in first!"

In front of a large house, Butler Li enthusiastically let a few people in first, then stopped at the concierge, turned around and said to the people:
"You three, wait a minute, I'll report it to the master!"

He nodded to a few people and then walked inside.

Watching Butler Li walk away, Wen Cai came over and whispered: "Wow, such a big arrogance. None of the Ren Fa in our town was like him when he was alive."

Qiu Sheng echoed from the side: "Yes, yes!"

Shen Lipu smiled after hearing this, and then said to the two: "It's not that he's arrogant, but Ren Fa is learning a new culture, eating Western food and living in a western-style building.

'Look here again. It's a typical mansion of a rich man in the countryside. It's completely different. "

Before they could say a few words, they heard the sound of two footsteps, and then they saw Butler Li leaving and returning, following a middle-aged man wearing silk and satin, bending slightly to do it. a referral gesture.

At this moment, he lost the slight sense of superiority he had just now, and his waist was not as straight as before, and he said to the middle-aged man with a slight flattery on his face:
"Sir, these are the two disciples of Taoist Shen and Uncle Jiu."

After speaking, he introduced the three people: "This is my master, Li Wanwan!"

"I'm ashamed, I'm sorry, I didn't greet you from afar when you came to my humble residence. It's rude and disrespectful!"

Although Li Wanwan is nicknamed like a nouveau riche, his dress and appearance do not look like a landlord, squire or businessman. Instead, he looks like a scholar. He has two beards and his body shape is not like that of a wealthy man. Generally, middle-aged people gain weight but appear slightly thinner.

"I've met Mr. Li!"

Shen Lipu and Qiu Shengwencai bowed their hands to Li Baiwan, which was regarded as acquaintance.

Afterwards, Li Wanwan enthusiastically moved several people to the living room and ordered his servants to serve tea.

As soon as she walked into the living room, Shen Lipu looked at it. It looked like the main hall of a pure Chinese-style mansion.

After entering the door, there is a landscape painting on the wall in front of you, and a couplet hanging next to it.

Below, there are six pieces of square tables and chairs in the central hall, and there are two rows of guest chairs next to them.

"Several please sit down!"

Li Wanwan was quite polite and directly placed Shen Lipu on the chair facing the door, while Qiu Sheng, a literary talent, sat down next to Shen Lipu.

After everyone sat down, Li Baiwan didn't say anything about him, but instead went around in circles with Shen Lipu.

First, he praised him for his brave fight against Ren Fa and Mrs. Ren and his son in Renjia Town, and then expressed his greetings to Uncle Jiu, a literary talent, Qiu Sheng, and then chatted with Shen Lipu about Taoist classics.From the "Tao Te Ching" we talked about how his father used to like Taoism. He and Shen Lipu had a long chat about traveling around the world, but he refused to talk about his family's affairs.

At first, Wencai and Qiu Sheng listened with interest, but the conversation lasted for more than two hours, and both of them yawned.

Shen Lipu didn't care, just let's talk.

Anyway, they were talking about Taoist matters, which happened to be in his own field, and Shen Lipu liked chatting quite a lot.

At this time, Steward Li just walked in, found a moment to speak, and respectfully said to Li Wanwan: "Master, the banquet has been arranged, look..."

"In that case, let's eat first."

Li Baiwan stood up and said to Shen Lipu and the others: "Taoist Master Shen, you two, please invite a few people to come over today and prepare a small banquet for us. Let's eat and chat."

Wen Cai was extremely bored at the moment. He couldn't quite understand the conversation between Shen Lipu and Li Baiwan, but he could only sit quietly and listen. He was going crazy now.

When I heard that there was a banquet, I no longer cared about being rude or not, and blurted out: "Okay, okay, great! Finally we can eat."

After saying this, the room fell silent for a moment, and several people looked at him.

Butler Li was still very skilled, and he quickly showed his high emotional intelligence. He changed the subject and told Shen Lipu what kind of dishes were prepared today, so that they wouldn't get cold, etc. Then everyone went to sit next door.

During the banquet, after three rounds of wine and five delicious dishes, Li Wanwan still chatted with Shen Lipu with enthusiasm, ranging from their local Dharma to Taoism, for a full hour.

By this time, both Qiu Sheng, a talented scholar, had already eaten their fill.

Only then did Li Wanwan tell a few people about today's theme.

Their house is haunted!
The thing is like this. Two days ago, Li Baiwan stayed up late at night to read. At midnight, he suddenly had a whim and wanted to have some wine in the small garden pavilion in the backyard.

Then he called his servants, prepared one or two side dishes, heated a pot of wine, and placed them in the pavilion in the back garden.

Then he sat there alone and poured himself a drink, quite proud of himself.

While he was drinking, he suddenly saw a white figure floating in front of Li Wanwan.

At first, Li Wanwan thought he was dazzled, so he didn't take it seriously, but after a while, he suddenly saw that figure again.

This frightened him so much that he immediately stopped drinking and eating the food. He immediately called the servants over and then returned to the front yard.

After returning to the front yard, Li Baiwan went back to the house and told his wife about the incident. His wife didn't take it seriously, comforted him casually and went to sleep.

But the more he lay there, the more he thought about it, and the more wrong he became, and he also doubted whether he had seen it wrong, so the next day he asked the servants who were always on duty at night if they had seen ghosts.

Of course, everyone answered no. After hearing their answers, Li Wanwan also felt that he was dazzled and misjudged.

Immediately, I told everyone what happened last night, and everyone shook their heads and had never seen it before.

That night, a brave servant volunteered to go to the backyard garden and stayed there until midnight, but saw nothing.

Now, Li Baiwan felt relieved again.

But this matter always bothered him, so he went to the back garden again last night.

As a result, he saw the white shadow again.
