Chapter 287 Female Ghost in White
Li Yun listened thoughtfully and said with a smile: "Is this your answer?"
Ye Chen nodded lightly: "That's right."
Li Yun asked again: "What if I don't want to teach you the Quanzhen Taoism?"
Ye Chen's attitude was firm: "Then naturally I won't hand over Maoshan Taoism - at worst I don't want your help. Even if it's a little harder, I will open Uncle Jiu's door myself."
Li Yun smiled and said: "So tough?"
Ye Chen smiled and said softly: "It is said in the Taishang Laojun Vipassana Sutra, so if you teach people to cultivate the Tao, you will cultivate the mind; if you teach people to cultivate the mind, you will cultivate the Tao. It can be seen that cultivating the Tao means cultivating the mind, and cultivating the mind Even if it means practicing Taoism, as a high disciple of the Quanzhen Sect, Brother Li cannot possibly not understand this principle."
"So I think that on the surface, you are throwing me a difficult problem, but in fact you are teaching me to cultivate my mind."
"Indeed, on the night when I got Brother Li's promise, I tossed and turned because of this question and couldn't sleep. But later, I gradually got the answer when I read the Taoist scriptures."
"The so-called Tao is obtained by the heart, and the heart is made clear by the Tao. If the heart is clear, the Tao will descend, and if the Tao descends, the mind will be clear. Thousands of scriptures and countless techniques can only be found in the heart."
"If I want to cultivate the Tao, I must first cultivate my heart. Only when my heart is in harmony with the Tao can it be pure and clear. Otherwise, even if I really worship Uncle Jiu as my teacher, I will definitely not be able to achieve any positive results. So, Brother Li, don't even think about using it again." This method disturbs my Taoist mentality, and I will not accept it!"
Looking at Ye Chen, who had a smile on his face and the gloom in his eyebrows disappeared, as if he had an epiphany overnight, Li Yun couldn't help but look weird.
This guy has too much inner drama, right?
He is not a real Taoist priest, so how can he have so many divine and Taoist ideas?
The previous question was just to see Ye Chen’s character and conduct...
But then again, Ye Chen at this time does look much more pleasing to the eye than he did two days ago. It seems that he really had an epiphany overnight through Taoist scriptures, and understood his true intention, and his words and deeds have become more natural. No longer so deliberate.
Is it possible that this kid is really a budding cultivator?
Li Yun had a strange expression on his face and couldn't help but look up and down at Ye Chen.
Ye Chen seemed to take this as Li Yun's answer, thinking that he was surprised by his change.
So Ye Chen looked solemn and said respectfully: "Thanks to Brother Li for your advice, I have learned a lesson!"
After saying that, Ye Chen bowed solemnly.
Li Yun twitched the corner of his mouth and was about to speak when Qiu Sheng, who was burning incense on the grave, suddenly let out an exclamation.
The two of them looked at each other and saw Qiu Sheng holding three sticks of incense, two short and one long, with a look on his face that he had seen a ghost.
Wencai swallowed when he saw this, and said in a panic: "Master said that the plum blossom incense array is used to predict good and bad luck. If it is burned like this, there must be something wrong. Let's quickly take the incense back to Yizhuang and let Master see it. look!"
With that said, the two quickly stood up and wanted to leave.
Before leaving, Wen Cai looked at Li Yun and Ye Chen and said loudly: "Brother Li, do you want to go back with us?"
Li Yun smiled and said, "No, Uncle Jiu asked me to go to the rice shop in town to buy some glutinous rice. You go back first!"
Qiu Sheng had seen what Li Yun was capable of and was not worried about anything happening to him in this graveyard, so he nodded quickly and took Wen Cai with him to fly towards Yizhuang.
After the two left, Ye Chen came to a tombstone, frowned at the black and white photo of a young girl on the tombstone, and murmured softly.
"Strange, there should be a female ghost in the plot, why didn't she appear this time?"
"Who knows, maybe because there are so many of us, this female ghost is shy, so she doesn't dare to see people..."
Li Yun said casually, but his dark eyes glanced at the black and white photo on the tombstone.
Ye Chen raised his eyebrows when he heard this and looked at Li Yun thoughtfully.
Li Yun smiled and said, "I'm going to a rice shop in the town. Do you want to come with me?"
Ye Chen thought for a while, nodded and said, "That's fine. Brother Li is a high disciple of the Quanzhen Sect and has Taoism for self-protection. However, I am still a dabbler who has not yet started. I need to buy some glutinous rice for self-defense. Why don't we go together!"
Before leaving, Li Yun picked up the three sticks of unburned incense that Qiu Sheng had thrown away and inserted them in the grass in front of the tombstone.
After the two people left, a gap suddenly opened above the tombstone, and a faint wisp of green smoke floated out, transforming into a girl in red holding a paper umbrella in mid-air.
The girl looked at the orange sunset on the horizon, then at her soul body that had become extremely solidified, and her face couldn't help but become weird.
At this moment, a cyan ghost suddenly floated out of the tomb next to it. It was a girl in white, with black hair shawl, a delicate face, black eyes like the stars in the middle of the night, and a conspicuous star in the corner of her left eye. tear mole.
Seeing the girl in white appear, the girl in red holding a paper umbrella quickly stepped forward and held the umbrella for the girl in white.
The girl in white glanced at the body of the girl in red next to her, and then at the three sticks of incense stuck in front of the tombstone. She couldn't help but chuckle and said: "Sister Xiaoyu, you are so lucky. There are kind-hearted people offering incense at your doorstep for no reason. You are such a noble person with a great background. It is really a great opportunity that cannot be found. I think you might be able to bear the fruit of Taoism before our sisters and become a ghost and immortal who will live a happy life!"
"Sister, what are you talking about..."
The girl in red heard the words of the girl in white and said quickly: "If my sister hadn't controlled me from doing evil, I'm afraid these three sticks of incense from your noble lord would have driven me out of my mind... If my sister doesn't dislike it, I would like to give this noble lord's gift to me." Dedicated to my sister!”
The girl in white laughed when she heard this, shook her head, and said softly: "Sister Xiaoyu, you misunderstood. My sister is not trying to take away your opportunity. She just wants to ask you if you heard the conversation between these two nobles just now."
The female ghost Xiaoyu was startled for a moment, as if she didn't expect that Sister Bai really didn't want her incense.
She hesitated for a moment, nodded, and shook her head again, indicating that she heard some, but not much.
The girl in white didn't mind and said as much as she wanted to hear.
After listening to the retelling of the female ghost Xiaoyu, the girl in white was thoughtful.
She waved her hand, and the female ghost in red who was holding a paper umbrella respectfully withdrew, turning into a wisp of smoke and returning to the tombstone, leaving the girl in white who was also a female ghost standing alone in the sunset with complex and weird eyes. He stared at the direction in which Li Yun and Li Yun were leaving.
what's the situation……
Could it be that she is not the only time traveler in this world? !
The female ghost in white couldn't help but murmur in her heart.
…
…
"People are most afraid of three long and two short, and fragrance is the most afraid of two short and one long."
"Why...it just happened to be burned like this!"
In Yi Zhuang, Uncle Jiu was guarding the coffin of Mr. Ren. He looked at the three sticks of incense in his hand and sighed: "Burned like this, it is a life-threatening incense. I'm afraid there will be death or injury within ten days."
Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai looked at each other and couldn't help but said: "Is it so serious?"
Uncle Jiu was so preoccupied that he ignored the words of the two apprentices. He just walked to the coffin, removed the lid, and took a closer look. He found that the flesh and blood of Mr. Ren’s body had become much plumper and had an extra layer of luster. It looked like The fresh look of someone who just died.
Sure enough, he was about to turn into a corpse!
Uncle Jiu's heart sank, and he looked at Old Man Ren's fingers again.
The strange thing is that Mrs. Ren's fingers did not turn black or lengthen as he expected, but still maintained the appearance of a normal person.
Why is this?
Uncle Jiu thought for a moment and immediately thought of Ye Chen who was kneeling down with Ren Tingting during the day.
Is it possible that this person also has a great background, and that his luck diluted the misfortune of Ren's family?
Uncle Jiu thought so, and then he saw the two short and one long incense, and couldn't help but shook his head.
As the saying goes, what should come will always come.
No matter how lucky Ye Chen is, he can only delay the transformation of Old Man Ren, but cannot prevent the coming of bad luck.
Thinking of this, Uncle Jiu moved the coffin lid back, turned to look at the literary talent Qiusheng and said, "You two, go and catch a rooster quickly!"
Wen Cai Qiusheng quickly agreed, pushed open the door and ran towards the chicken coop.
When Li Yun returned to Yizhuang with the newly bought glutinous rice, what he saw was Wen Cai hurriedly catching the rooster.
Without hesitation, Li Yun grabbed a rooster flying in the air, looked at Wen Cai and said with a smile: "What, good luck, let's eat chicken tonight?"
Wen Cai sighed: "It's not about eating chickens, it's Master who wants to kill chickens, and where does the good fortune come from? It should be a big disaster!"
Li Yun raised his eyebrows: "Oh?"
Qiu Sheng hurriedly ran over covered in chicken feathers: "Brother Li, please be gentle and don't crush it to death. Master wants the blood of a living chicken, not a dead chicken!"
"Don't worry, the rooster is a living creature, not a ghost. I have discretion."
Li Yun smiled and handed the rooster to Qiu Sheng, and then handed a bag of glutinous rice to Wen Cai. He was gearing up and said expectantly: "Do you want my help?"
"No, please don't!" Uncle Jiu quickly walked out of the room and stopped him, "As long as you don't get too close to Mr. Ren, Uncle Jiu will be satisfied."
Li Yun glanced at him and suddenly said: "Uncle Jiu, even I can see something strange about Mr. Ren. I don't believe you can't see that Mr. Ren's body is about to turn into a zombie. In order to prevent him from turning into a zombie, If you harm people, you should be burned on the spot!"
Uncle Jiu sighed after hearing this, and said softly: "I don't know this truth. It's just that Master Ren has his own way. Even if I know that there is danger, I can only do my best and obey fate. Besides..."
At this point, Uncle Jiu paused and hesitated, but still did not say the rest of the words.
He waved his Taoist robe and said softly: "Literary Qiusheng, take that rooster and follow me into the house."
