The door was slowly opened, and an old man with a straight back and white hair poked his head out. He stared at me with a wary look on his face and asked in a low voice:
"Who are you looking for?!"
"I'm looking for..."
I was confused. Ye Qing didn't tell me who he was looking for. How could he answer this?
Seeing that I didn't speak for a long time, the old man snorted and was about to close the door. I immediately leaned against the door with my body and said with a silly smile:
"Then what...Uncle, Ye Qing asked me to come?"
The old man was stunned for a moment and looked me up and down with his eyes wide open. Because I had been driving on the mountain road for a day and a night, my clothes were very dirty and there was a lot of mud on my shoes. So when he looked at me like this, I suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.
Sorry, my feet were twisted into pigeon-toed shapes unconsciously...
"Are you from the mountains?" the old man asked.
"right…"
When the old man heard this, he pushed the door open again,
"Come in..."
I breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly walked in. The old man did not rush to close the door, but leaned out half of his body, looked around furtively, and then carefully closed the door.
I took a cursory glance at the room and found that it was very messy. The quilt on a wooden bed had not been folded yet. There was a wooden table opposite the bed. There were some small boxes and some red ones scattered on the table.
Powder is scattered on the table.
"Cinnabar..."
I muttered in my heart, I didn't expect this old man to be a mage.
"Come with me..."
The old man said something, and then walked towards the corner. I followed him hurriedly, and then I discovered that there was a staircase made of wood in the corner. I followed the stairs to the second floor. The second floor was a small corridor.
There are two doors in between.
The old man pointed to the door at the end of the corridor and said:
"Go ahead, someone is waiting for you."
After saying that, he went downstairs alone.
I walked to the door suspiciously, hesitated for a moment, then raised my hand and knocked on the door. As a result, the door opened by itself as soon as I knocked for the first time. It turned out that the door was ajar and not closed at all.
Seeing this scene, I opened the door and walked in. As soon as I entered the door, I saw a man standing in front of the window of the house. This man had his back to me and was thin. What surprised me was that he was wearing a white suit.
robe…
"It's you?!"
I was surprised. This figure was both familiar and unfamiliar to me. It was the man in white who had saved me many times. The last time I saw him was in Queqingshan. He was scared away in a white sedan chair.
Three skinned corpse.
"Are you surprised to see me?"
The man in white said with his back to me, his tone was cold, and there was an indescribable strangeness in his tone.
"Of course, you...why are you here?"
I subconsciously took a step forward.
"Don't come here!"
The man in white suddenly said, although his voice was not loud, it carried an intimidating majesty, which made me stop unconsciously.
"I'm here to get something."
"What?" I asked.
"It's the wooden box in your bag."
I was stunned for a moment, and then I realized that he was talking about the wooden box dug out from Quzhai Cemetery, but I started to mutter in my heart, how could he know about this wooden box? And Ye Qingming clearly didn't talk to the man in white.
After meeting each other, why do you say he is an old acquaintance?
Thinking of this, I unconsciously took a step back and called Ye Qing out. After Ye Qing came out and saw the man in white, he asked in surprise:
"Who are you?!"
This sentence confused me. I quickly turned around and asked Ye Qing,
"The old acquaintance you are talking about...isn't he him?"
"Of course not, I don't know him, what I'm saying is..."
Before Ye Qing finished speaking, a seven-inch copper nail suddenly shot over. Because the incident happened suddenly, Ye Qing and I were unprepared. By the time I reacted, Ye Qing had already been nailed by the seven-inch copper nail.
on the wall of the room.
"Ye Qing!!!"
I rushed over and found that Ye Qing's expression was dull. There was a black hole between her eyebrows, and wisps of black gas were still coming out. But strangely, the seven-inch copper nails were missing.
"Don't worry, I'm just temporarily sealing her ghost door. It won't take long for her to recover."
The man in white said silently, his back still facing me, and his hand kept swinging out the seven-inch copper nails.
A burst of anger suddenly burst out of my heart,
"How dare you touch Ye Qing?!"
I shouted loudly, and immediately used the Tiangang Step to rush over. The moment I came behind the man in white, I formed a seal with my hands and slapped him hard on the back of his heart. But the strange thing was that his body moved slightly to the side.
, I just missed it.
I was horrified. When he moved just now, his feet clearly did not move. He floated past. Could he really be a ghost?
Realizing this, I took out the Jiutian Evil Suppression Talisman and quickly put it on his back. This time, he didn't hide. I hurriedly changed my handprints and said:
"All things are born from yin and yang, the heaven and earth are transformed from all things, the vitality of chaos, Jiutian Zhen..."
I still didn't pronounce the last word "xie".
"Why did you stop? If I am unprepared, the Nine Heavens Evil Suppressing Talisman might be able to hurt me at all." The man in white said.
I took a deep breath and gritted my teeth and said:
"After all, you have saved me countless times. Who are you? What do you have to do with me?"
"hehe…"
The man in white chuckled a few times, but said nothing.
At this moment, there was a burst of rapid footsteps outside the door. The man in white immediately stopped laughing and turned his head slightly and said:
"All conditioned dharmas are like wind, rain, dew, lightning, snow, frost. Without them, there will be calamity! You must remember this sentence! There is also that wooden box. I will get it from you again!"
After saying that, he gently raised his sleeves, and a fierce wind suddenly rose from the ground. I suddenly felt that my eyes were a little blurry. When everything in front of me became clear again, the man in white had disappeared.
I have seen this move before Master Hei, but I don’t know why, I always feel that the man in white is more powerful than Master Hei.
"Um…"
A soft snort suddenly came from behind. Looking back, he saw that Ye Qing's previously dull expression had returned to normal. The seal on her ghost door had been lifted, and the black hole between her eyebrows had disappeared.
After the shock just now, she was a little confused and her soul was a little unstable, so I didn't care to say anything more and let her get directly into the gloomy wooden box to nourish her soul.
At the same time, the door of the room was pushed open, and a familiar figure came towards me. My eyes widened and I lost my voice:
"Lao Yutou!"
When I saw him, I really had the urge to cry! I rushed over and slapped Lao Yu hard on his head and shoulders. As a result, Lao Yu staggered.
"You little brat, you want to shoot me to death!"
Lao Yu cursed. I scratched my head and realized that the old acquaintance Ye Qing was talking about turned out to be him.
"Old Yutou, how did you find this place?"
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Lao Yutou's expression instantly became solemn...
