Chapter 117 Reincarnation (7)

Hearing him say this, Lu Donghe did not delay and immediately took him to Lu Zongyao's room.

Along the way, Lu Donghe complained bitterly, cursing the monster for harming his son and making him unable to even get out of bed.

Li Wenshui then asked why Lu Zongyao was haunted by ghosts. When it came to this, Lu Donghe hesitated and couldn't explain clearly.

Xu Caiyun smiled with a dagger hidden in her heart, "We invited the Taoist priest to catch ghosts. We don't know the reason, but I don't think it will affect his exorcism, right?"

Li Wenshui seldom went down the mountain, and he didn't interact with people outside Fusheng Temple. This time he went down the mountain because Zhang Zuishan had left the Taoist temple for something, his master was in seclusion, and his uncle was also busy, so they had to send him down the mountain.

Therefore, he had no idea about the character of the county magistrate and his son. He just thought that Lu Zongyao had accidentally provoked some wandering ghosts. This was also what his uncle told him.

He replied, "Madam is right."

Seeing that Li Wenshui had been fooled, Xu Caiyun's tone became more sincere, "If the Taoist priest can save my son, we will definitely add more incense to the Taoist temple."

Li Wenshui didn't care much about it, he just nodded.

They soon arrived at Lu Zongyao's room. As soon as Li Wenshui stepped into the room, he felt a faint ghostly and demonic aura.

Li Wenshui's eyes narrowed. It turned out that ghosts and monsters were working together to play a trick on the Lu family.

After seeing Li Wenshui, Lu Zongyao rolled down from the bed. He rushed to Li Wenshui and wanted to hug his thighs, but was avoided by Li Wenshui.

"Master, save me, save me."

Xu Caiyun helped Lu Zongyao up and said, "The Taoist priest will save you."

She looked at Li Wenshui, "I wonder if the director has figured out anything?"

Li Wenshui: "The one haunting Master Ling must be a ghost and a monster."

"Monster?" Lu Donghe asked in amazement, "There are monsters in this world?"

Li Wenshui patiently explained: "There are ghosts in the world, and as long as there is spiritual energy from cultivation, there will naturally be monsters."

Lu Zongyao rolled his eyes and looked around, then asked tremblingly, "So they're not here now, right?"

"No." Li Wenshui said, "The demonic and ghost auras are very faint, so they should have left for a while."

Lu Zongyao felt relieved and said, "Then please, Taoist priest, kill them quickly!"

Now that Li Wenshui was here, Lu Zongyao's eyes were grim, and he wished he could skin Li Zunwen and the unknown monster alive.

"You three wait here. I will check the mansion first. If I can find their trace, I will capture them first. If not, wait until midnight tonight, and I will perform a ritual to summon the souls."

Hearing what he said, Lu Donghe asked: "Master, do you need me to lead the way for you?"

"No need," Li Wenshui refused, "There are too many people. They will run away when they hear the noise."

Lu Donghe clasped his fists and bowed, "Thank you for troubling me, Taoist Priest."

After Li Wenshui left the room, Lu Donghe called a servant over and asked him to follow Li Wenshui secretly.

Although he believed that Li Wenshui was a man of real ability, he still had doubts in his heart until he saw it with his own eyes.

After Li Wenshui noticed the footsteps behind him, he did not stop walking. He expected that the Lu family did not trust him.

Li Wenshui looked around the front hall, backyard, and garden, but found nothing.

When passing by a certain place, Li Wenshui stopped. He walked into the courtyard and found that this was the kitchen.

Two or three kitchen servants were drying vegetables outside the kitchen. When they saw Li Wenshui, there was no doubt in their eyes. Recently, the most frequent visitors to the Lu Mansion were Taoist priests and monks.

But at the moment, they think the one in front of them looks the most likely to have real skills.

Li Wenshui walked slowly into the kitchen, and a strong evil aura suddenly emerged.

He only saw a white shadow running towards the window. Li Wenshui immediately took out a talisman and used hand gestures to attack the white shadow. However, the monster ran too fast and Li Wenshui's talisman only hit the tip of the monster's tail.

When he chased to the window, the monster was no longer there.

Li Wenshui frowned. He couldn't even see the monster's appearance clearly. He only vaguely saw a fluffy white tail.

The servant who had been peeking outside the door widened his eyes. It turned out that this Taoist really had some skills and was not just a half-baked one like the previous ones. He immediately turned around to report to the master and his mistress.

"Hey, what's going on?" The cook in red linen clothes looked at the roast chicken with only one leg left in her hand in astonishment, "Where's my chicken?"

The chef, who was serving soup with sweat all over his forehead, said: "Why is there no soup left?"

The other chefs looked down and found that the dishes in their hands were gone.

"You were all deceived by the monster just now." Li Wenshui said.

Seeing Li Wenshui, who was dressed in a Taoist robe, speaking, the cook slapped her thigh and said, "It's actually a monster. I thought it was a ghost. I said, ghosts don't steal food. This damn monster stole vegetables from the field before, and now it's stealing from the kitchen."

The male chef covered her mouth and said, "Are you going to die? What if he hears you and wants to kill you?"

The cook's face turned pale and she said nothing.

Li Wenshui asked them: "How did you get deceived? Do you have any recollection?"

A chef began to recall, "I seemed to smell a fragrance, a very fragrant one, and then I lost consciousness."

Several other people echoed this.

"Yes, it's a fragrance. It's not like the fragrance of flowers, but we can't describe it. It just smells very good."

"I get confused when I smell it."

Someone grabbed Li Wenshui's sleeve and said, "Master, can you catch him? We are all worried about him being here all the time. We all want to leave the Lu family and quit."

Li Wenshui said: "Don't worry, I will do my best."

He did not say that he would definitely catch the monster, but instead made the people present more convinced, because the Taoist priests and monks who had previously vowed to catch the ghost had run away in a panic.

On the other hand, Chen, who ran outside Lu's mansion and met Li Zunwen in a shabby house, was not feeling well.

His beautiful fluffy tail was burned by the talisman paper. Although it didn't burn his skin, the hair on the tip of his tail was gone.

Li Zunwen touched his tail distressedly and comforted him, "It's okay, it should grow back soon."

Foxes love beauty by nature, and Chen Ye was also somewhat influenced by this nature. "I don't know where this stinky Taoist priest came from to help the Lu family and even dared to burn my tail!"

Since Chen noticed Li Wenshui as soon as he walked to the door, he ran straight to the window without looking back to see Li Wenshui.

Li Zunwen said worriedly: "His talisman paper can hurt you. What if we can't beat him?"

Chen Ye thought for a moment and said to Li Zunwen: "Don't be afraid, at worst we can wait a few more days until he leaves, and then we can deal with the Lu family. He can't stay in the Lu family forever, right?"

Li Zunwen thought what he said made sense, "Then we will live here temporarily."

He smiled at Chen Ye and said, "I can go to the fields to steal vegetables for you at night. You don't have to worry about being hungry."

Chen Ye: "No, I ate a lot in the Lu family kitchen today. I don't need to eat in the past few days."

Upon hearing this, a hint of disappointment flashed in Li Zunwen's eyes.

In fact, Li Zunwen hoped that the Taoist priest invited by the Lu family this time could stay for a long time, so that he and Chen would not have to be separated.

His obsession is not deep. After taking revenge and his resentment dissipating, he will go to the underworld to reincarnate. During the days that Li Zunwen and Chen Ye have been together, he has gradually become more attached to the world and does not want to reincarnate after taking revenge.

At night, Chen Ye turned back into his original form and slept on the bed, while Li Zunwen sat quietly beside him. Ghosts don't need to rest.

Li Zunwen saw the moon through the broken roof, his eyes were filled with sorrow, for it was obvious that he would soon go to Beijing to take the imperial examinations. He was a well-known child prodigy in the surrounding area, and it was uncertain whether he would be on the list of successful candidates after the imperial examinations.

But now he has become a wandering ghost and has nothing.

As he was feeling melancholy, Li Zunwen's face started to look strange. A powerful suction force attracted Li Zunwen, and his soul began to become distorted.

"Little fox, little fox!" Li Zunwen shouted, "Wake up!"

Chen also opened his eyes. Before he could ask Li Zunwen why he was shouting, in just a blink of an eye, Li Zunwen's ghost disappeared in front of him.

Chen Ye:?

The system reminded him: [The powerful Taoist priests in this world can summon spirits. If you don’t save him, he will be dead.]

Chen Ye reacted and rushed to Lu Mansion immediately.
