Heavy rain washed over Longhu Mountain, and everyone returned to their respective residences. Longhu Mountain, which had been bustling for two days, was rarely quiet.
Chang Shan was meditating on a futon in the room, with incense and candles lit, and the sound of his chanting could be faintly heard.
After returning with Yan Shouyi, Chang Shan treated the wound by himself and did not tell the leader of Hanshan Temple about the matter.
With the elder's character, if he knew about this, he would probably cause a big fuss, and Yan Shouyi said not to make it public, otherwise it may ruin the master's plan.
So Chang Shan rested alone in the house.
He was chanting sutras and thinking about what happened at night.
At this time, a shadow came silently outside Chang Shan's window.
The shadow that looked like a vicious dog slowly turned into a human form. The man was lying on the window, staring straight at Chang Shan.
Observing that Chang Shan didn't notice him, Shadow showed a strange smile, easily sneaked into the house, and walked around behind Chang Shan.
There was still no movement in Changshan.
The shadow was hiding in the shadow behind Chang Shan, but it slowly grew larger, until it swallowed up Chang Shan's own shadow.
A pair of dark hands climbed to Chang Shan's shoulders and quietly pinched Chang Shan's neck...
Then, suddenly tightened!
Chang Shan, who was unprepared, suddenly widened his eyes and started scratching his neck!
However, there was nothing around his neck, and he could not touch the shadow's hands at all!
Chang Shan kept struggling, but to no avail. His face turned black from holding back, and he was about to suffocate to death!
At this moment, a golden light suddenly flew in from the window!
The golden light hit Shadow's forehead impartially and turned into a "swastika"!
The shadow let go of Chang Shan and kept rolling on the ground, as if it was on fire, but it couldn't be extinguished!
The swastika seems to be branded on Shadow's forehead, and no matter how much Shadow struggles, it can't get rid of it!
Chang Shan was finally able to escape. He turned around and immediately slapped Shadow with his palm!
At this time, the shadow was severely injured. After struggling for a long time, there was no movement.
Chang Shan took a closer look under the light and found that after the shadow became silent, it gradually turned into a shadow puppet.
"Shadow puppet?" Chang Shan instantly understood who it was.
"Changshan!"
Shi Xin, the leader of Hanshan Temple, strode into the house at this time: "Why is there an evil spirit in your house?!"
Chang Shan knew in his heart that he could not hide this matter from Elder Shi Xin, so he held the shadow puppet on the ground and brought it to Elder Shi Xin.
"What is this?" Elder Shi Xin asked.
"Shadow Puppet Man."
"Nonsense!" Elder Shi Xin said angrily, "I'm asking about the origins behind it!"
Chang Shan was about to answer when someone outside the house shouted:
"Elder Shi Xin, the elder of Longhu Mountain personally sent you a letter, saying that it is very important and you need to come and get it in person!"
Elder Shi Xin glared at Chang Shan and had to turn around and go out.
Chang Shan seemed to realize something and followed Elder Shi Xin out.
Elder Shi Xin didn’t understand why we still needed to exchange letters when we were both on Longhu Mountain.
Moreover, the person responsible for delivering the letter was Elder Longhushan.
After getting the letter, Elder Shi Xin immediately opened it. After reading it briefly, Elder Shi Xin's face darkened, and he read it several times carefully without believing anything.
Finally, Elder Shi Xin said coldly to Chang Shan: "Chang Shan, after the last competition today, did you and Yan Shouyi go out alone for a while?"
Chang Shan nodded silently.
"No wonder you got into trouble," Elder Shi Xin sighed, "pass my order and ask everyone to prepare weapons."
"What happened?" Chang Shan asked.
Elder Shi Xin directly took off half of his cassock, wrapped it around his waist, and said coldly: "It's no big deal, it's just that the Heavenly Master asked us to work together to eliminate demons, defend the Tao, and protect the righteous Dharma!"
…
Zhu Feifeng held an umbrella and came to Yan Shouyi's courtyard. Seeing that the door was closed, he stepped forward and knocked on the door.
After knocking three times, the door suddenly opened, and Zhao Yiyao stood inside and looked at Zhu Feifeng.
"It's me." Zhu Feifeng quickly raised the edge of the umbrella, fearing that Zhao Yiyao wouldn't recognize him.
"Taoist Master Zhu, come in." Zhao Yiyao recognized Zhu Feifeng and opened the door to let him in.
The moment Zhu Feifeng walked into the courtyard, she was frightened. There were dozens of people gathered in this small courtyard, and they were all holding weapons and looking evil.
Moreover, there were a bunch of scary paper figures stuck around Agong.
"You, what are you doing?" Zhu Feifeng asked fearfully.
"Don't worry, Taoist Priest, we are not doing bad things," Master Guanyun stepped forward and said, "It's just that things are not peaceful at Longhu Mountain tonight, so let's work together to protect ourselves."
"Is Longhu Mountain not peaceful?"
Zhu Feifeng was even more confused. Is there any safer place in the world than Longhu Mountain?
He looked into the depths of the yard and saw Yan Shouyi sitting there, holding a carving knife and carving a small wooden bird.
In front of Yan Shouyi, there was another wooden bird, but the wooden bird's wings were broken and it looked miserable.
"call!"
Yan Shouyi blew on the carved wooden bird to blow away the wood chips on it, then picked it up and looked at it for a while, and finally said with satisfaction:
"This body is much more beautiful than the previous one, and according to your wishes, I carved the claws a few sizes larger to make you look more powerful."
He placed the new wooden bird in front of Sanyuan and asked: "How do you feel? Is there anything that needs to be changed?"
Sanyuan shook his head and chirped, as if he was looking forward to this new body.
"Okay, then I will help you move your soul."
Yan Shouyi took out a red rope and tied Sanyuan's old and new bodies together. He also took out a few Taoist talismans and wrapped them up.
After a while of casting spells and chanting, the Taoist talisman spontaneously ignited without fire. Sanyuan controlled a brand new body, emerged from the flames, and flew high!
Its soul has been transferred from the damaged old body to the new body that Yan Shouyi just carved for it. The new body is more flexible and more aggressive than the previous body. Sanyuan is very satisfied.
Sanyuan hovered in mid-air for a while, and suddenly landed on Yan Shouyi's shoulder, chirping as if talking.
Yan Shouyi asked doubtfully: "You said there is someone outside our hospital?"
Zhu Feifeng quickly turned around. When she came just now, there should be no one behind her.
It's so late, who came to see Mr. Yan?
"Zhao Yiyao, open the door." Yan Shouyi shouted.
Zhao Yiyao rolled her eyes at Yan Shouyi: "You really treat me like a maid?"
However, although she was not convinced, she was very honest and immediately opened the door.
Through the crack in the door, she saw three people standing outside. One of them she knew was Zhang Shanli.
"Master Shanli, please come in quickly." Zhao Yiyao opened the door.
Zhang Shanli shook his head: "I'm here to deliver a letter, so I won't go in."
"letter?"
When Zhao Yiyao was confused, Yan Shouyi had already walked to the door. After the door was opened, Zhang Shanli saw the people waiting for him and couldn't help but smile: "It seems there is no need for you to read this letter."
"What's the meaning?"
Yan Shou took the letter, opened it, and saw clearly written in the letter:
Tonight, demons are going up the mountain with evil intentions. Longhu Mountain respectfully invites all fellow Taoists to help eliminate demons, defend the Tao, and protect the righteous Dharma!
The Heavenly Master really wants to catch a turtle in a urn!
Looking at this line of text in the letter, Yan Shouyi was finally sure——
