Chapter 102 The evil spirits in the red lantern shop [please vote]

This kid is sure to hit the meat with a knife... The smile on Zhu Ye's face did not diminish.

"It's okay, it's okay. I'm just looking for an opportunity to get close to you, Daoxuan."

After Zhu Ye finished speaking, he waved his hand, and Zhu Youcai and the two took their purses and the shroud ghost to find Fang Jie to make a deal.

At his position, facing someone much younger than himself, he still couldn't do that tail-wagging gesture.

Therefore, it is very reasonable for Zhu Youcai and the others to discuss the transaction.

Li Daoxuan led Zhu Ye into the house.

The latter came in and looked around, with surprise in his eyes, "Do you live here, Daoxuan?"

Zhu Ye originally thought that even if Li Daoxuan lived in a small courtyard, it would still be a small pavilion, but now... let alone a seventh-rate grain eater, even a ninth-rate grain eater would live in a much better place than this. Bar.

"What? This isn't good."

Li Daoxuan didn't boil the water, so he didn't pour it. The two just sat down.

Zhu Ye nodded in agreement, "As long as Daoxuan is willing to live here permanently, this street will soon become the most prosperous place in Shouwu City."

Without him, the sense of security brought by a seventh-rate grain eater is far from being comparable to that of a ninth-rate grain eater.

"Can't stay long."

Li Daoxuan shook his head and looked at the old fox in front of him.

Zhu Ye then took out a booklet from his sleeve and said: "This is all the information about Red Lantern Square that the four of us have collected so far. It is all here. Dao Xuanqian can take a look first. If there is any If you don’t understand anything, you can ask me.”

It was exactly the same as the last time I invited Li Daoxuan to the Smiley Face Inn.

It's just that Zhu Jinglun came last time, and Zhu Ye came this time.

Li Daoxuan opened it.

The words on the panel began to slowly appear.

[The five turbidities come to the world, and while the grain-eaters are seeking the ladder to reach heaven, the evil spirits are also stealing the territory of the earthly world.The weak hide themselves in the mountains, while the strong live in cities. 】

[You have accepted the commission from the seventh-rate thief in front of you, and you are about to go to the Red Lantern Shop. 】

[Red Lantern Square was originally a paradise for men in Hand Witch City. While desires were annihilated there, a lot of evil spirits were also bred there. Remember, don’t have too many desires in Red Lantern Square. Your survival points are +50 (green) . 】

Li Daoxuan first read the text that appeared on the panel, and then looked at the booklet handed over by Zhu Ye.

open.

"Red Lantern Square:

Scope involved: North of Hand Witch City.

The evil spirits that appear include hundreds of calamity turbidities, three seeing turbidities, and one trouble turbidity.

It was originally a charming and prosperous place controlled by the Gu family. After the arrival of the five turbidities, Red Lantern Square became a paradise for ghosts overnight. Everyone in the city died at the mouth of the evil spirits. Then the Gu family sent grain eaters to suppress it. The evil "sex ghost" haunted the place, and then the red lantern square became peaceful.

Until the revenge incident of Shadow River and Mother, a large number of evil spirits broke out in Red Lantern Square again. The Shigu family had no time to take care of themselves and had no choice but to let it go.

Hou Hemu fell into a deep sleep, and when Gu Jia turned around and looked at the red lantern shop, he realized that there were many evil spirits in the red lantern shop at that time, including many Level B calamities.

The Gu family sent eight-rate grain eaters there, but never came out again.

Later, the head of the Gu family, Gu Yu, went there in person, but no one came out. Only news came out on the way,
In the Red Lantern Square, there is a Class A calamity.

Evil spirits ranking:

[-]. The old woman in Red Lantern Square

Rating: Grade A calamity

Haunted location: Chunshui Pavilion in Red Lantern Square.

Appearance pattern: unknown.

She has mastered the only worry in Red Lantern Square. According to the news from Gu Yu, the old woman will not leave Chunshui Pavilion easily.Therefore, as long as she could offset the pollution caused by her troubles and stay away from Chunshui Pavilion, she would not take action.

[-]. Children and ghosts
Rating: Class B calamity

Appearance location: The entire northern area of ​​Temuma City

Appearance pattern: unknown

Red Lantern Square was originally a land of flowers and grass. Every year, a large number of newborns died in the womb and were washed into the ditch. After the five turbidities came to the world, they absorbed the yin and tacky air and turned into calamity turbidity, hoping to take revenge on the world. .

There are a lot of little ghosts, and they like red lanterns very much. They often cling to red lanterns to observe.So when you pass by a red lantern, remember to be careful, because there is a high possibility of a Class B kidnapping ghost on top.

[-]. Ghost Mother

The ghost mother looks majestic and ugly. She can give birth to ten ghosts in the morning, and ten little ghosts will follow her during the day. At this time, the ghost mother is less aggressive.

At night, the ghost mother will eat ten little ghosts. The ghost mother is very aggressive at that time, so remember to stay away from it.

Note: There are many evil spirits in Red Lantern Square. Currently, only some of the known Class B calamities have been included.

In addition, due to their special nature, the three views are only perceived by Gu Yu, but the specific ones are not known, so they are not included. "

The book ends here.

Li Daoxuan slowly closed it, with only one thought in his mind.

Is it really possible to go to this red lantern shop? !

At first, he thought that there were only a few Grade B evil spirits in the red lantern square, but now it seems... there are only Grade B evil spirits.

There are even Class-A evil spirits that have mastered the domain. Isn’t this the kind of thing that can kill people!
There are a bunch of B-level evil spirits plus one A-level evil spirit, and there are at least three turbid beings.

In this battle, I am afraid that only the sixth-rate grain eaters can hope to pacify this restricted area.

"Ha ha."

Seeing Li Daoxuan's embarrassed expression, Zhu Ye finally felt a little happy.

'Oh, you want to steal our money?Now you know why we agreed so quickly! '

Li Daoxuan opened the book to the last page, and there was also a page of layout map of the north of the city.

He just glanced at it and threw it away.

"There are Class B evil spirits inside, and there are even Class A evil spirits. What's the use of this layout diagram? Doesn't this confuse judgment?"

Li Daoxuan asked directly.

A Class B evil spirit already has the ability to change the surrounding environment, let alone a Class A evil spirit that has mastered the field.

So you know without looking that the terrain in the north of the city must have changed a long time ago.

If you go in with this layout plan now, it's not much different from seeking death.

"This... we just want you to refer to Daoxuan."

“References will only mislead my judgment in advance.”

Li Daoxuan looked at the door, "Do they all have this manual?"

"Yes, I gave them all."

Li Dao

Li Daoxuan raised his eyebrows.

Zhu Ye's heart suddenly "thumped".

But fortunately, Fang Jie's voice came over again, "Oh, it turns out that the Zheng family has divided the bags into two. You should have told me earlier."

At the same time, a figure walked in from outside, walking quickly and hurriedly.

It was Zhou Xu who came.

Li Daoxuan looked over and saw that she was holding the booklet in her hand, with joy in her eyes.

She looked at Zhu Ye and asked directly: "Is your information above wrong?"

Li Daoxuan frowned, thinking she had discovered something, and immediately looked at Zhu Ye, with evil in his eyes, and stood up slowly.

Zhu Ye hurriedly said, "Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

"A lot of the information here was sent by Gu Yu, so its authenticity is absolutely reliable. Moreover, we also expect you to solve this red lantern shop. How could we give you false information."

"That makes some sense."

Zhou Xu looked at Li Daoxuan, his eyes became more and more delighted, and he nodded slightly.

Ok?
Li Daoxuan could see the meaning in her eyes. She was definitely talking about Tai Sui in the Red Lantern Square.

But hasn’t this been said a long time ago, and it’s already certain that there is Tai Sui in it?

She nodded and looked so happy.

Li Daoxuan also nodded.

In Zhu Yi's confusion, Zhou Xu retreated, but soon followed Fang Jie and others in.

The Zhu brothers came behind Zhu Ye.

Fang Jie also whispered: "Brother Li, we have finished counting, that's right."

Li Daoxuan nodded slightly.

"In this case, let's take our leave first. If there is anything else we need, Daoxuan can come to our door."

Zhu Ye said with his fists clasped.

"Can I still come to you if I don't have the merit to open a path?"

Bai Jun tilted his head and asked.

"This..." Zhu Ye could only laugh awkwardly a few times, and hurriedly left with fists in his hands, fearing that if he stayed here for a while, not even a few of his bones would be chewed.

Seeing the three of them, father and son, leaving.

Fang Jie, who always had an expressionless face, slapped his hand and couldn't help but exclaimed: "Brother Li, we are rich! I have never seen so many incense in my life. It is simply more than the number of incense ashes I had before." It’s even more in total.”

"Why don't we just run away after finishing this job? They can't beat us anyway!"

Li Dao ah!"

After saying that, he put several purses on the table, each one bulging.

When Li Daoxuan saw this scene, he couldn't help but feel a twitch in his heart.

"hiss--"

Fang Jie took a breath and said quickly: "Legs, Brother Li, legs!"

Li Daoxuan lowered his head and said, "Oh, it turns out this is your leg. I thought it was my leg."

Bai Jun on the side took out four bright red candles from behind.

"Each family also gave us an extra red candle."

Li Daoxuan looked at her, and then at the red candle in her hand.

"Aren't you a ghost?"

"Yes."

"Then what is this in your hand?"

"Oh, Master, you are telling me this. Maybe I am thick-skinned, so I am not afraid of this thing. But don't worry, other ghosts will be afraid of this thing."

After saying that, Bai Jun also hurriedly placed the four red candles on the table.

Zhou Xu looked at her and didn't say much about the topic. Instead, he said, "The Tai Sui in this red lantern shop is probably much older than we thought before."

"How big is it?"

This is what Fang Jie asked.

"How did you figure it out?"

This is what Li Daoxuan asked.

"Maybe it will be twice as big as before!" After Zhou Xu finished speaking, he looked at Li Daoxuan with clear eyes, "Because many of the ghosts here were raised by Tai Sui."

"Can Tai Sui raise ghosts? Didn't you say that this thing is the only thing that can resist evil spirits? Ming turbidity is evil spirits, so this thing can resist evil spirits and also nourish evil spirits?"

Fang Jie's staring eyes were full of surprise.

"can."

Zhou Xu just answered with one word.

"So, Tai Sui is probably in the Spring Water Pavilion. As long as we go there, destroy the evil spirits and take Tai Sui away, then the Red Lantern Square will be almost pacified."

Li Daoxuan said after careful consideration.

Bai Jun on the side was still making noises, "If you want to pacify Red Lantern Fang, you only need two steps. The first step is to eliminate the Class A evil spirit, and the second step is to take Tai Sui away. It's that simple!"

After speaking, she waved her fist.

Li Daoxuan glanced at her, and she immediately stopped talking, "If you want to deal with that Grade A evil spirit, I'm afraid you really have to take action."

"My master is so powerful that there will be no problem. Of course, if my master needs it, I will definitely do my best."

Bai Jun put his head on Li Daoxuan's shoulder, looking very well-behaved.

Li Daoxuan looked at the two of them, "Have all the materials and trash from yesterday been packed away? There are also the things collected at Yinhundang last time. Sell what should be sold. If the preparations are almost complete, start calling the ghost decorator. "

"Everything is ready." After Fang Jie finished speaking, he took out a piece of blood-stained paper money from his arms and said, "This is a gift from the Zhu family."

"Oh? That's quite considerate."

I already got a piece of blood-stained paper money from the ink ghost, and now I got another one. This way I can keep a spare one, which is good.

Several people came to the yard, and when the sun went up to the hill, Li Daoxuan directly lit the paper money.

The blood-stained paper money turned into fly ash under the candlelight flame and fell to the ground. Soon, an old wooden door appeared in the void space.

Behind the door, the clanging sound of iron chains could be heard.

It's just that this time the footsteps that sounded behind the door were no longer a person, and it was very chaotic.

"Three people." Li Daoxuan gave the answer.

Fang Jie weighed the pitchfork just in case something unexpected happened.

"Most likely my scissors have been repaired. There is no need to doubt the ghost dresser, even a corrupt ghost dresser."

After Zhou Xu finished speaking, the short and fat figure appeared again behind the door, but as soon as he poked his head out and glanced at Li Daoxuan, he shouted:
"Mom, what kind of windfall have you made? Wait for me!"

After Tian Cai finished speaking, he hurriedly disappeared behind the door, and even the footsteps stopped.

"This is……"

"We paid too much for incense this time, which exceeded his budget. Now he probably went back to get the good things."

Li Daoxuan guessed.

Because the ghost decorator was summoned twice before. Compared with the first time, the things he took out were different because of the difference in money between Li Daoxuan and others.

After waiting for a few minutes, the sound of chaotic footsteps came from behind the door again.

You can still vaguely hear Tian Cai urging.

Within a moment, two... strange creatures walked out from behind the portal.

It looks like a human, but is only as tall as a calf.

The clothes are in rags, the body is thin, and there is a long scaly tail dragging behind it.

The two creatures were dragging iron chains on their shoulders, and connected behind the iron chains was an iron box.

It wasn't until they completely walked out from behind the door that Tian Cai followed them out. He looked evil and cursed: "You two useless things, why don't you get out of here."

After saying that, the two creatures hurriedly put down the chains on their shoulders, hurriedly ran into the passage behind the portal, and disappeared.

As soon as these two things left, Tian Cai changed his face.

Becoming playful, even a little... flattering.

Without him, in his opinion, these few people in front of him are all rare and important patrons.

"Haha."

Before he could speak, Tian Cai laughed, but Li Daoxuan said: "Master Ghost Decorator, remember your arrogant and indifferent attitude at the beginning."

Tian Caihun said nonchalantly: "Yes, you didn't have much money at that time, so it would be great if I was willing to come."

Li Daoxuan originally thought he could use this opportunity to hurt him, but he never thought he would be so honest.

Tian Cai saw through his thoughts and looked surprised, "Isn't it normal for us ghost decorators to dislike the poor and love the rich?"

"it's okay no problem."

Li Daoxuan glanced at Fang Jie, who naturally threw a few shroud ghosts in front of Tian Cai.

What was contained in it included not only what Li Daoxuan had gained using [Miao Hand Empty] yesterday, but also what several people had gained in Yinhundang.

When Tian Cai saw those shroud ghosts, his eyebrows suddenly lit up. He quickly picked up one, weighed it, and then opened his mouth suddenly and enlarged it several times.

Directly devour the shroud ghost and the sundries inside.

After eating three in a row, Li Daoxuan used the key again and took out the pile of reed bamboo shoots from the Ghost Inn.

Tian Cai, who was already satisfied, was stunned when he saw Li Daoxuan's methods.

"This...this, your key?"

Li Daoxuan shook his head, "I won't sell it."

"Ten merits?"

"Said not to sell."

"Twenty pieces...forget it, if you don't sell them, forget it."

After Tian Cai silently ate the pile of reed shoots, he directly gave a number, "The total value is 62 pieces of incense and 72 pieces of incense ash. I will give you a total of 63 pieces of incense."

After hearing this, Fang Jie smiled and said, "How about we round it up and count it as seventy incense sticks?"

"Ha." Tian Cai sneered, "I'll just put it all together and give you a hundred pieces of incense, okay?"

"Successful."

Fang Jie nodded repeatedly.

"Why is your face so big?"

After Tian Cai finished speaking, he looked at Zhou Xu again without smiling all over his face, "Hey, sir, this is your vulgar weapon. Our abilities are limited and we can only help you repair it to this point."

As he spoke, he walked over to the iron box, broke off the two locks on the side, and opened it.

The box was also wrapped in red cloth.

"My lord, you..."

"It's okay, I'll come."

Zhou Xu walked forward as she spoke and lifted up the red cloth. In an instant, a red shadow came out from inside and cut straight towards her snow-white neck.

Zhou Xu didn't move at all.

He was about to cut his neck with scissors, but when he got in front of her, he stopped.

Zhou Xu reached out and took it off as if nothing had happened. After stroking it gently, he also put it into his sleeve.

After the matter was over, Tian Cai, the degenerate ghost decorator, also breathed a sigh of relief. He immediately looked at Li Daoxuan and said with a flattering smile: "Come on, come on, this time I have brought all the things I need to see what you need. "

"You are probably going to a dangerous place somewhere?"

"You definitely need this."

As he spoke, Tian Cai took out a few scarlet...candles from the iron stove he carried on his back.

It is very similar to the direct red candle.

It's just that this time the red candle seems to be inlaid with gold.

What was then taken out were items that were unheard of and unseen.
