Liaozhai Great Sage

Chapter 134 Ghost plot.

Although Li Xiuyuan left, the ten-day agreement he left behind was still in Chu Shilang's heart.

The Chu family cemetery has been in operation for many years, protecting the Chu family, so that the people of the Chu family are not only powerful landlords in Guobei City when they are alive, but also enjoy incense and offerings when they become ghosts after death. The City God did not dare to do anything to the Chu Family Cemetery, and could only acquiesce in the existence of the Chu Family Cemetery.

Such a good day thought it could last forever, but who knew that Li Xiuyuan came today.

"A born sage, a born sage." Chu Shilang was preoccupied and sighed repeatedly.

The word "sage" was like a big stone pressing down on his heart, making him a little out of breath.

"We must find a way to move Chu's cemetery within ten days, otherwise the saint will really put down us ghosts and snakes when he gets angry." Chu Shilang said helplessly.

"My lord, you may be too ambitious for others, and destroy your prestige. Our Chu family is a well-known family of officials in this area of ​​Guobei City. We usually want money, money, power and power. The nearby ghosts and ghosts Who doesn't sell our Chu family a little bit of noodles, just a young boy who wants to force our Chu family to relocate, master, you agree, but my concubine will not agree."

Madam Chu walked over slowly and said.

Chu Shilang said angrily: "What do you know as a woman? Li Xiuyuan has a very high fate and is a born saint. If we fight against him, we will seek our own death. You have seen the previous situation. How old are Liu Lao and the fox girl?" Spirits and monsters with a hundred years of Taoism, even if they meet Taoists on weekdays, they can't take them down, but now in front of Li Xiuyuan, one of them was hacked to death, and the other was strangled to death. If they are like this, what tricks can us ghosts play?"

Mrs. Chu said: "Although Li Xiuyuan has some abilities, Mr. Shi, don't forget that he is a human being. As long as he is a human being, he will have birth, old age, sickness and death, and there will be flaws. Moreover, this natural saint can only become a saint after he is alive. If you're dead, that's not necessarily the case."

"What do you want to do?"

Chu Shilang's eyes moved, and he looked at her strangely.

Mrs. Chu smiled; "We ghosts really have nothing to do with Li Xiuyuan, but living people may not. Since we can't deal with Li Xiuyuan, let someone who can deal with Li Xiuyuan take action."

"You mean to entrust my dreams to those descendants?" Chu Shilang frowned.

"The Chu family has a great cause and has connections with the government. If we can intercept and kill Li Xiuyuan outside the city, even if people from the Li family come to make trouble, we can settle it, right?" Mrs. Chu said.

Chu Shilang flicked his sleeves and said: "You are playing with fire and setting yourself on fire. You don't even know what a born saint is. If a born saint is so easy to kill, there won't be so many saints sweeping the world through the ages. Li Xiuyuan must be With the shelter in the dark, we can't kill him."

"How do you know if you don't try? Is it true that the master really wants to move all the ghosts in our Chu's cemetery to the underworld according to that Li Xiuyuan's request? You know where the underworld is, master. Even if you go to the underworld, you can be safe. For a while, but sooner or later, it will be taken by the ghost king of the underworld, Yan Luo, and it will not matter if you lose your freedom at that time, I am afraid that the lives of the whole family will be difficult to save."

"Left and right is death. Why don't we end up with Li Xiuyuan while we still have room. Once he dies, everything will be over. If it doesn't work, we can move to the underworld and it won't affect the overall situation." Madam Chu said.

Hearing this, Chu Shilang immediately became a little bit moved.

After all, he was reluctant to just move into the underworld honestly like this. How could such a huge family business be let go just now.

But if he really wanted to intercept and kill this natural saint, to be honest, Chu Shilang still didn't have that much courage in his heart.

However, Madam Chu's words made him feel that this matter is somewhat feasible. Madam is right. Even if this matter fails, it will not be too late to move to the underworld. This human saint can't be chased to the underworld.

After thinking for a while, Chu Shilang gritted his teeth and said, "Madam, what are you going to do about intercepting and killing Li Xiuyuan?"

"Such important matters are naturally left to the people closest to us. Our grandson Chutian is capable of both literature and martial arts, and is good at riding and hunting. Why don't you let him bring some friends to invite Li Xiuyuan to go hunting in a few days? ? And during this hunting period, if someone accidentally hurt someone, I believe the government will not pursue it too much." Madam Chu said, her eyes revealed a bit of coldness.

"Does our grandson need to be involved in this matter?" Chu Shilang frowned.

"Is there a better candidate for the master? Could it be that he directly sent the guards to rush to Li Xiuyuan's mansion and kill him? Li Xiuyuan must be vigilant when the guards move, and he will definitely not let it go when the time comes. Guard. If it were Chu Tian who went hunting, it would be different, it would not arouse Li Xiuyuan's vigilance, and even if he failed, he would have an excuse to shirk."

"Furthermore, I don't believe in outsiders. It's absurd for ghosts and gods to entrust dreams. Except for the direct descendants of our Chu family, how can others do their best to do this matter? Right now, it's not too late. What we need It's time, if you wait a few days, even if you want to do it, it may be too late."

Chu Shilang nodded and said: "This matter is somewhat reasonable, left and right can't get rid of the relationship, it's the same for whoever goes, since others are worried about using it, it's better to let my grandson take action. Then give him some tips, let him advance and retreat freely, and leave a way out."

"Since the master agrees, then I will go and entrust him with a dream." Mrs. Chu said.

"These words are reasonable, but there are still places that need a lot of attention at this time. I don't feel relieved if you go, I will go."

After Chu Shilang finished speaking, he strode towards the outside of the hall, and then turned into a cloud of wind and disappeared into the night sky.

At this moment, Li Xiuyuan didn't know about it.

After he left Chu's cemetery with two guards, they returned to the city immediately because it was too late.

"Young master, it's strange to say that when we hit a ghost with this wooden stick just now, the ghost was beaten and howled. It hurt more than hitting a human body. This wooden root is really so magical? It can actually deal with ghosts."

The guard on the road looked at the stick in his hand and asked curiously.

Li Xiuyuan said: "The willow itself can fight ghosts, and this willow is cut off from the willow tree spirit. It has a miraculous effect on fighting ghosts. The two of you carry this wooden stick with you. If you see ghosts in the future, you will have weapons to deal with ghosts."

"Yes, young master."

The two guards were overjoyed when they heard this, they didn't expect this willow to be a treasure.

Of course, this thing is more or less a treasure for ordinary people, but its function is too small, it can only fight ghosts, and it is just an ordinary wooden stick on weekdays.

Although he returned to the city in the middle of the night and the city gate was closed, but fortunately Li Xiuyuan had met the old soldier who guarded the city gate before, and after calling his name, the old soldier cooperated to open the city gate for them.

Of course, the hard work of ten taels of silver is inevitable.

The old soldier took the money with a smile all over his face. He only hoped that he would do this kind of job a few more times. After all, this kind of money is really easy to earn, and Li Xiuyuan is quite generous.

"Eldest young master, little one, the servant of Chu who hid his knife in his smile did not look like a good person. Eldest young master, you should be more wary of this person, don't be deceived by that ghost." The guard thought of something and said worriedly.

Li Xiuyuan said: "I didn't believe that Minister Chu. The ten-day appointment with him was just to give him a little time to prepare, and I also gave me a little time to prepare. If he goes back to the underworld in peace, everything will be fine. If he doesn't want to go, I will send them there with my own hands, well, don’t mention this matter, ghosts can listen, so that some words will not be overheard by ghosts.”

"Yes, Eldest Young Master." The guard nodded, and immediately stopped asking.

Just when I was going back to the house.

Li Xiuyuan heard the sound of sharpening knives coming from near the mansion again.

"Why is it so late, and there is still the sound of sharpening knives? It can't be the same person from last time, right?"

The guard searched for the sound and looked: "It's from that house, it should be the same person from last time, this person is a bit weird, he sharpens his knife in the middle of the night every day, there may be some problems, and he is near our house, everyone Young master, do you want to find out? I am afraid that this person will sharpen his sword at night and intend to do something wrong, if you don't ask the reason, you may not be able to sleep well at night."

"Yes, although the eldest young master is not afraid of such things, we are inevitably a little uneasy when we hear the sound of sharpening knives every night. Today we meet again. Why don't you ask Tantan? It's best if there is nothing wrong, and if there is something wrong Solve it early." Another guard said.

Li Xiuyuan thought for a while, nodded and said: "It makes sense, since you are here, let's ask why."

Immediately, he knocked on the courtyard door of that house with his guards.

As soon as the door rang, the sound of sharpening knives in the yard stopped.

After a while, a voice sounded from inside the door, with a hint of tension: "Who, who."

"We are the guards of the Li Mansion next door, please open the door." A guard knocked on the door and said.

Hearing that it was the neighbor next door, that simple and honest middle-aged man opened the door cautiously just now: "Why are you knocking on my door in the middle of the night if you don't sleep?"

Li Xiuyuan gave a salute at this time and said: "I'm really sorry for disturbing you late at night, but just now when I was waiting to return late, I heard the sound of sharpening knives coming from the next door, so I was curious and came to ask."

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I made a noise to the neighbors next door. I just don't sharpen my knife during this time." The honest middle-aged man apologized quickly.

Li Xiuyuan saw that this person didn't look like a villain, so he didn't continue to ask; "That's good, then I won't disturb the neighbors, you rest, and leave."

"wait wait wait."

The honest middle-aged man hesitated for a moment, but when Li Xiuyuan was about to walk away, he hurriedly chased him out again.

"Stop." The two guards hurriedly stopped him when they saw him rushing towards him.

Li Xiuyuan signaled the two guards to be safe, and said, "Is there anything else going on with this neighbor?"

The honest middle-aged man hesitated again, before asking: "Young Master looks like a scholar, can you do me a favor?"

"What's the matter?" Li Xiuyuan asked.

"Can you write a pleading for me?" said the honest middle-aged man.

"You have grievances?" Li Xiuyuan was stunned for a moment.

The honest middle-aged man nodded, with a bit of grief and helplessness on his expression.

　I'm really sorry, I have something to do today, so I can only make up one chapter, and I will add it tomorrow.
