Liaozhai Great Sage

chapter 598

The place where the evil spirit emanates is not a certain city, nor is it a certain village.

Instead, it was near a post station on an official road not far from a nearby county.

Because this is the main traffic road to and from the capital, there are not many motorcades and pedestrians passing by on weekdays.

However, today, a large convoy came near the post station. There are dozens of horses parked in the stables of the post station, and the saddles and reins are only used by top rich people. The carriage parked next to it is also exquisite and luxurious, and there are many inside and outside the post station.
Many elite guards in armor and long knives hung on their waists.

It seems that some important person passed by here and happened to stop and rest here.

"Is it here?"

A white and handsome dragon horse stood on a mound not far away, as if it had appeared out of thin air.

Li Xiuyuan sat on the horse and looked in the direction of the station.

Sure enough, there was a burst of purple air from that post station, among them there must be rich and noble people resting there, and his divine eyesight couldn't see through everything that happened inside, even if he used the mysterious light technique, it was difficult to find out clearly.

Like princes and generals in the world, emperors and queens, many spells cannot be cast on them.

It's as if Li Xiuyuan, as a saint in the world, can cover up all Taoism.

It's just that their fate is not as precious as Li Xiuyuan's, so they can only block some investigative spells. If they are cast face to face, they will still work.

"Go and see first."

Li Xiuyuan took the dragon colt away, put on another Taoist robe, disheveled his hair, restrained his breath, and prepared to go to check for a while.

It is always suspicious for strangers to approach. If you pretend to be a Taoist, you can avoid many unnecessary troubles.

This is some experience taught to him by Senior Brother Teng Yunzi.

The Song Dynasty attached great importance to Taoism because of the Taoist emperor, so Taoist priests are a very respected profession.

Of course, the premise is a capable Taoist.

If it is those liars who have no skills, it is still very disgusting.

Li Xiuyuan didn't shy away from his Taoist attire, and walked straight towards the post.

Before entering, it was discovered by a silent guard.

This guard was wearing a brand-new armor, with a sharp sword hanging from his waist. He was tall, burly and powerful. At first glance, he was not the kind of embroidered pillow, but a real martial artist who dared to kill.

And its dress is also the standard armor of the imperial court.

If he dares to dress up like this and walk on the official road with great fanfare, the master behind him must have a prominent status. If Li Xiuyuan is not mistaken, he should be a soldier of a certain prince and noble, just like the soldiers raised by Li Liangjin's family in Jinling City .

"I've seen this Taoist priest. Is this Taoist priest going to rest at the post station? If so, then I'm sorry. My master is resting inside. It's inconvenient to disturb you. Please ask the Taoist priest to go to another place to rest."

The guard came over and saluted Li Xiuyuan with fists in his arms, with a somewhat polite tone.

Li Xiuyuan smiled and said: "Pindao didn't come to stay overnight, nor did he come to have a rest, but just now, when the poor way was flying through the clouds and passing by here, he saw a demonic aura rising into the sky, and there were screams and screams. So I looked with my celestial eyes out of curiosity, but I saw the place where the evil spirit came from.
But Fang was enveloped by a purple air, which blocked the poor eyes of the poor, and he couldn't look at him kindly. "

"Therefore, I just want to come here specially, hoping to find out which spirit monster is staying here to make trouble."

"What, there are monsters here?" The guard was startled, and suddenly became a little nervous.

They guard and kill people, and they are good at resisting thieves. They will still get scared when they encounter ghosts and ghosts. This is the same as Tieshan, Ma Dong, and Niu Er back then. They are not afraid of people, but ghosts.

Although the ghost can't hurt them, but fear is fear.

This is a deep-rooted thought in the hearts of the people, and it has been like this for thousands of years.

Li Xiuyuan said: "Poverty Taoist is a person of practice, dare not lie about such important matters, although your master is a prince and general, and he is not afraid of goblins, but this evil spirit is really unusual. If it is possible, I hope to be more accommodating and let the poor do some research.
If nothing happened, that would be the best, if there really were goblins and ghosts accompanying them all the way, the poor Taoist would be able to take them away, so as not to cause harm to the world. "

The guard immediately changed his face and said: "This Taoist priest, please wait a moment, let me inform the master right now."

After speaking, he turned and left immediately.

Li Xiuyuan secretly said: "Sure enough, the status of a Taoist is much more useful than my status as a scholar. There are indeed many conveniences when walking outside."

However, the respect of Taoists comes from the many virtuous Taoists who conquered demons and saved the people. Without them, Taoists would not be highly respected in Song Dynasty.

Although he lied a little, his identity as a Taoist is not fake.

The Taoist inheritance of the Eight Classics.

The guard walked into the inn in a hurry, and was about to report, but was stopped by a gentleman who looked like a literati.

"Stop, why are you rushing in with such a hasty expression? Don't you know that the little prince is busy now? If it disturbs the little prince's elegant mood, it's up to you." Mr. Liu scolded.

"Mr. Liu, if you have nothing important to do, how dare you bother the little prince? Mr. Liu just came outside a Taoist priest, saying that there is only one goblin in our place, and the sorcerer's aura is overwhelming. That spirit, if you capture it, I dare not make a claim, so I am here to let you know

report. "The guard gave a salute and said respectfully.

Taoist?

This Mr. Liu sneered: "When people in the mountains see the rich carriages and horses of the young prince, it is like a robber seeing gold and silver. Who knows whether this is a true Taoist or a fake Taoist, and there is no need to report this to the young prince. , the little prince is busy now, let me go and have a look, if he is a true Taoist, then he

But treat each other with courtesy, if he is a false Taoist, he will be captured and killed immediately. If he is really capable, he probably won't be afraid of our steel knives and sharp arrows.Seeing that there are still ten days to go to the capital, the safety of the little prince cannot be tolerated.
Lost. "

"Sir, that's what you said." The guard nodded immediately.

soon.

This Mr. Liu walked out of the station and saw the Taoist that the guard outside the station said.

Take a look.

However, although this Taoist man was wearing Taoist robes and his hair was disheveled, he couldn't conceal his tall and strong body.

If it was a robber in disguise, he must be a person with high martial arts skills.

Immediately, before Mr. Liu had a conversation with him, he was already three points vigilant.

"In Xialiusheng, I have met this Taoist priest, but I don't know the name of the Taoist priest? Where is he practicing in the fairy mountain?" He greeted him politely.

Li Xiuyuan was already prepared in his heart, he said with a smile: "Poverty Tao Teng Yunzi, worshiped under Tao Tong Xianren's door, practiced in Changshou Town, Immortal Mountain, traveled here today, passed by here and saw a ghostly spirit here, came here specially to check Tan, I just didn't expect that there are so many guards here, stopping the poor

, so I also hope that the nobles here will be convenient and accommodating. "

Since he is pretending to be a Taoist, he must have the posture of a Taoist. Being polite and humble is the minimum for a Taoist to walk outside.

Only with such an attitude will it not be easy to offend others, and it will not cause karma.
