Chapter 177 Chapter 15 Silent Footsteps

"You didn't lie to me?" Xuan Po asked redundantly.If Priest Gui had lied to him, he would never admit that he had lied to him at this time; if Priest Gui had not lied to him, he would not just admit that what he just said was a lie to him. "I still need your help to deal with the Yasha ghost. Why should I lie to you?" Taoist Gui approached Xuan Po while talking, but Xuan Po did not protest again. "Bigu can really make people live longer?" Xuan Po asked. Gui Taoist nodded. "How much can it be extended?" Xuanpo was very interested in the new term "Bigu", looking eager to try.

"It depends on your skill. It varies from person to person." "Then how much can you extend?" Xuan Po looked at his paper-like face. "Do you still remember the story I told you about my eighteen-year-old son and his twenty-year-old father?" Taoist Gui said. "of course I remember." "Then how do you say I know this story? Haven't you thought about it? It happened more than a hundred years ago." Taoist Gui pretended to be mysterious and smiled. "You mean..." Xuan Po looked at the scarecrow-like Taoist priest in front of her, and was so surprised that she couldn't say the rest of the sentence.

Taoist Gui resumed his previous complacent posture: "Yes. I will be alive then." This time, Xuan Po was completely stunned, her mouth was slightly opened, and the chewed and un-chewed rice grains slipped out of her mouth and scattered on the clothes on her chest and the ground in front of her feet. At this time, a woman rushed in suddenly.She danced and danced excitedly, but whispered in the most restrained voice: "Choose woman, Taoist priest, something happened, something happened." Maybe it was because she was running too fast just now, she couldn't keep up with her breathing, so she stopped talking, and breathed hard with her hands on her hips gas.Steam rose from the top of her head, and the hair on her forehead was wet with sweat.

Xuan Po immediately got rid of her surprise, and said to the woman who came in recklessly: "Third Aunt, don't worry. What's the matter? You seem to be running like a steam engine." This is a woman with thick black hair and a slightly fat body. He didn't know this "third aunt", but many people in the village already knew him.After listening to Taoist Gui's narration, everyone was afraid that the Yasha ghost would come to the village to harm people.At first, everyone pinned their hopes on Grandpa, hoping that Grandpa would subdue the ghosts as before, but after hearing the news brought by Xuan Po from Huamei Village, they pinned their hopes on this unknown Taoist priest again.After tea and dinner, the topic of course cannot be separated from this Taoist priest. They are all talking about the strangeness of the Taoist priest, and they are also wondering whether this Taoist priest can subdue the Yasha ghost like Master Ma subdued the water ghost.However, there are still a lot of people who are secretly speculating about the origin of this sudden appearance of the Taoist priest: whether he intends to help the people here, or has other plans.Many people also began to complain about grandpa. If grandpa readily agreed to come to catch ghosts, there would be no such troubles.

Some people even said in front of everyone that grandpa's conduct was not good, and when and where he did some shameful things, as if he saw it with his own eyes.Grandpa once told me why sometimes I am not very willing to help people catch ghosts.Grandpa said that it was like eating with a child. He would not remember if you used chopsticks to pick up meat for him. If you hit him on the head with chopsticks, he would hate you so much that his teeth itch. The third aunt opened her mouth, making gestures several times to speak out, but she just couldn't make a sound, and continued to gasp for air, as if she was suffering from severe asthma.

"I ran too fast just now, didn't you? Sit down, take a breath, and talk carefully." The election woman brought a chair and helped the third aunt to sit down. As soon as the third aunt sat down, she said, "It's terrible, the Yasha ghost has come! I saw it." After she finished speaking, she waved her hand, took a few breaths, and then said, "No, no, I'm not the only one watching Now, several people have seen it. Yasha ghost has arrived in the village!" After hearing what the third aunt said, Xuan Po and Taoist Gui looked at each other in blank dismay. "It's coming so soon?" Taoist Gui asked in surprise. Obviously, he also felt incredible, and suddenly panicked.Seeing Taoist Gui's expression, Xuan Po was even more panicked than Taoist Gui, and at the same time he felt that only Taoist Gui could stand on the same front with him now.

Xuan Po lowered her head and asked Third Aunt: "Are you sure you saw it? Did you see it right?" The third aunt said: "How can I get it wrong? Not only I saw it, but also the women who washed clothes with me saw it. Could it be that we all got it wrong? We saw the Yasha ghost passing by the laundry pool. A few people didn't dare to make a sound, and when it passed by, they hurriedly asked me to tell you. You have caught ghosts with Master Ma, and you know more than we do." Taoist Gui interjected, "Are you sure what you saw was a ghost? Isn't it a human?"

The third aunt smiled apologetically and said, "It's a good thing you are here, otherwise we really don't know what to do." Then she changed a mysterious expression and said, "Of course I'm sure! When this ghost was still at the water inlet of the laundry pool , I saw it. Its hair was so long that it dragged to the ground. It was not wearing anything, but the long hair covered it a little. The hair covered most of its face. If I hadn’t heard what you said the night before yesterday Things, I knew in advance that the Yasha ghost was coming to the village, and I would treat it as a female lunatic who came from other places. I secretly told the other women who were doing the laundry together, and told them to keep quiet and see if it was a Yasha ghost. Say it again."

"Then how are you sure it belongs to the Yasha ghost?" Xuan Po asked anxiously.The tip of his nose was already sweating. "We pretended to continue washing clothes. When it passed by us, there was no sound of footsteps! If it was a person, there would always be a little sound, but we didn't hear any sound!" The third aunt's face became distorted, I still have lingering fears when I recalled it, "Besides, didn't Gui Taoist say that it will prevent children from being born. We saw it go all the way to Yaoyao's house, and Yaoyao just found out that she was pregnant a few days ago. Didn't it Going to kill Yaoyao? You guys, hurry up and save Yaoyao!"

Taoist Gui tilted his head and asked, "Does it have long hair? It drags all the way to the ground?" The third aunt nodded like a chicken pecking at rice. "That's it." Taoist Gui shook the sleeve of the "raincoat", and there was a rattling sound inside, which was the sound of chains.He turned his head and said to Xuan Po, "I need your help." Sucking her nose, Xuan Po said, "I don't know how to hunt ghosts or spells. How can I help you?" Taoist Gui showed a strange smile: "I need you to take the initiative to seduce the female sex ghost."
