"F * ck me!" Ye Xuan was stunned when he heard the system suddenly giving him this mission. He could not help but curse.
If the system was a person, Ye Xuan would definitely pull it out to see if it was struck by lightning. Otherwise, why would it give him such a strange mission?
If it were a human or a monster, even if it were a monster like Tyrant, Ye Xuan would not have any complaints. But this mission actually required him to deal with ghosts. Was the system messing with him?
"Who are you?" Hearing Ye Xuan's voice, Tan Baiwan and the others who were watching Mao Shan Ming turned around and saw Ye Xuan standing behind the beam. They immediately shouted at him with a sullen face.
"Hello, Councilor Tan. I'm Ye Xuan. I heard there was a religious ceremony going on here, so I came in to take a look out of curiosity. Please forgive me, Councilor Tan!" Seeing that he had been exposed, Ye Xuan did not hide behind the beam anymore. Instead, he walked out boldly and saluted with his hands folded in front of his chest.
Seeing Ye Xuan's dignified appearance, Tan Baiwan's eyes lit up. He swallowed the words he wanted to scold and looked at Ye Xuan from head to toe. "You're not from this village?"
"I happened to pass by your village today. I heard there was a religious ceremony going on here. I just came back from abroad, so I'm a little curious about it. Please forgive me, Councilor Tan!" Ye Xuan cupped his fists again.
"Do whatever you want, but don't blame me if anything happens," Tan Baiwan said calmly, uncharacteristically. Originally, this was a family scandal for the Tan family. If an ordinary person wanted to watch, Tan Baiwan would definitely ask someone to throw him out. However, he saw that Ye Xuan was different from ordinary people, be it his attire or his mannerisms. Moreover, he heard that Ye Xuan had just returned from abroad. At this time, people who could go abroad were all from influential families. Although what Ye Xuan did was a little rude, Tan Baiwan was experienced and did not want to offend an unknown person for no reason.
"Thank you, Steward Tan. Don't worry, I'm just here to take a look out of curiosity. I definitely won't do anything out of line. "Ye Xuan smiled.
"En." Hearing Ye Xuan's guarantee, Tan Baiwan nodded coldly. He turned around and looked at Mao Shanming.
Mao Shanming had just nailed a Taoist talisman with gold coins on the lintel of the door. Then, he held two umbrellas in his hands and shouted, "Golden Wind Powder in the human world and oil-paper umbrellas in the nether world, for you!" He threw the two umbrellas into the house.
Unfortunately, the two umbrellas didn't move at all. Looking at the two umbrellas, the corners of Ye Xuan's mouth curled up imperceptibly.
"Oh, I paid with paper money. If you still refuse to admit your mistake, I'll make you suffer! "Seeing that there was no movement in the room, a hint of a smile flashed across Mao Shanming's eyes as he picked up the peach wood sword on the table.
Bang! Bang!
Suddenly. All the doors in the house closed automatically. The moment the door opened, the oil-paper umbrellas that Mao Shanming had thrown into the house were thrown back, scaring Tan Baiwan out of his wits.
"Aiya, you don't know how to appreciate my kindness!" Seeing that the ghost in the house didn't seem to appreciate his kindness, Mao Shanming was furious. He walked to the altar table and performed a hand seal. Then, he chanted and pointed at the bowl of glutinous rice on the table. The glutinous rice in the bowl suddenly jumped up.
Ye Xuan stood at the same spot and watched Mao Shanming's performance. If he didn't know what kind of person Mao Shanming was, he wouldn't have thought that Mao Shanming was a real Taoist. Just by looking at his performance, he really seemed to be a Taoist cultivator.
"Come here, I'll open your eyes!" After finishing the ritual, Mao Shanming picked up the water that had been washed with pomelo leaves and splashed it on Tan Baiwan's face. He used the pomelo water to open their Dharma Vision. Only by opening their Dharma Vision could they see things that ordinary people couldn't, such as ghosts and spirits.
After opening Tan Baiwan's Dharma Vision, Mao Shanming retracted his branch and glanced at Ye Xuan, who was standing not far away. His eyes flashed as he walked to Ye Xuan and said with a smile, "Come, young man, let me help you open your Dharma Vision. Later, you will be able to see ghosts."
"Thank you for your kindness, but there's no need." Ye Xuan shook his head.
"Young man, don't tell me that you don't believe in ghosts in this world? Let me tell you, if you don't believe in ghosts, wait until I open your Dharma Vision. Then, you will naturally believe in ghosts. Furthermore, if the ghost comes out and you can't see it, you will be in danger if the ghost wants to harm you, "Mao Shanming explained with a look of concern.
"No, Taoist, you misunderstand. It's not that I don't believe in ghosts. If there were ghosts in this house, my eyes would definitely be able to see them," Ye Xuan said with a smile.
"What do you mean? Are you a kindred spirit? "After hearing Ye Xuan's words, Mao Shanming was startled. He looked at Ye Xuan from head to toe.
"Taoist, you misunderstand. I am not a Taoist. It's just that my eyes are a little special." Ye Xuan smiled and pointed at his eyes.
"Yin Yang Eyes?" Mao Shanming was surprised.
Ye Xuan did not answer. He just smiled and did not say anything.
Seeing that Ye Xuan did not want to say anything, Mao Shanming could not do anything. However, after knowing that Ye Xuan was not a Taoist, he was relieved. He was afraid that if Ye Xuan was a Taoist, he would be exposed. If that happened, he would not be able to survive.
"Then, you're on your own!" After saying that, Mao Shanming turned around and returned to the altar. He picked up his weapon and walked into the house. He planned to finish this quickly so that he would not be able to cheat money later.
Seeing Mao Shanming enter the house with the peach wood sword, a golden light flashed in Ye Xuan's eyes. He immediately activated the "Heavenly Eye" and carefully observed Mao Shanming's movements.
Mao Shanming carried the peach wood sword on his back and held a small bowl of glutinous rice in his hand as he walked into the house cautiously. His eyes darted around the house, and then he grabbed a handful of glutinous rice from the bowl and scattered it into the air inside the house.
Pa pa pa!!! — —
Suddenly, the handful of glutinous rice thrown by Mao Shanming seemed to have hit something in the air. A series of firecracker-like sounds rang out from the air, and then two ghostly figures, one large and one small, dressed in Qing Dynasty costumes, gradually appeared in the air.
Although Ye Xuan was standing outside the door, he could clearly see what was happening in the house. As soon as the two ghosts appeared, Ye Xuan directly saw them with his "Heavenly Eye". He thought that these two little ghosts should be the little ghosts that Mao Shanming raised, Dabao and Xiaobao.
Inside the house, in order to cheat money, Mao Shanming was acting very seriously. He seemed to be fighting very fiercely with the two little ghosts, and the Tan family watching outside were all very nervous.
Mao Shanming fought with Dabao and Xiaobao for a while. When he saw that his acting was almost over, he left Dabao behind and pretended to fight with him while he let Xiaobao go out to cheat money.
Because their eyes were already opened, when they saw Xiaobao running out with his claws and fangs bared, the Tan family was immediately scared out of their wits. Their legs trembled, and they wished that their parents could give them two more legs. They quickly ran out of the house.
How could Xiaobao let them run away? He gritted his teeth and chased after them.
"Ah! — — "
Suddenly, when Xiaobao chased after Ye Xuan, he seemed to be burned by something. He let out a scream and immediately retreated in pain.
Ye Xuan raised his eyebrow when he saw Lil Bao stepping back and looking at him with a frightened look on his face. He lowered his head to look at himself. He was a little confused. It seemed this brat called Lil Bao was afraid of him.
What do I have that can scare a ghost?
Just when Ye Xuan was feeling puzzled, Mao Shanming, who had just put Dabao away, suddenly rushed out of the house when he heard Xiaobao's scream.
"Uncle Ming, this person is so scary. Save me!" When Xiaobao saw Mao Shanming, it was as if he had seen his savior. He turned around and pounced on Mao Shanming.
"What's wrong, Xiaobao? Did he hit you with an artifact?" When Mao Shanming saw Xiaobao's face turn even paler, he thought that Xiaobao had been hit by an artifact and his soul was starting to dissipate. He was shocked.
"No, Uncle Ming, quickly put me away. This person's body is like a furnace. Whenever I get close to him, I feel very uncomfortable. Uncle Ming, quickly save me!" Xiaobao turned around and looked at Ye Xuan in fear.
"His body is like a furnace?" Mao Shanming's eyes flashed with suspicion. When he saw Xiaobao's soul starting to dissipate, he was afraid that if he did not quickly put him away, his soul would be greatly damaged. At that time, he might not even be able to reincarnate.
"Okay, quickly come in!" Mao Shanming did not dare to delay. He quickly opened another oil-paper umbrella, and Xiaobao dived into it with a "whoosh".
After putting Xiaobao into the umbrella, Mao Shanming recalled what Xiaobao had said just now. His eyes turned and looked at Ye Xuan with a bewildered expression. Then, he suddenly formed a seal with his hands and rubbed his eyes. A golden light flashed in his eyes, and he raised his head to look at Ye Xuan's body.
"Ah!" Mao Shanming, who had opened his "Heavenly Eye" to look at Ye Xuan's body, suddenly cried out in fear. He could not help but take a few steps back. In his "Heavenly Eye", he saw that Ye Xuan's body, which looked normal to the naked eye, was emitting an intense red light. His whole body was like a furnace, and a majestic blood Qi completely enveloped a meter around him.
"Blood Qi of extreme Yang!" Mao Shanming muttered to himself with a dull look in his eyes.
"Taoist priest, are you okay?" Ye Xuan saw Mao Shanming looking at him as if he had seen a ghost, so he walked up to him and asked.
"Ah! Oh! I'm fine, I'm fine! "Mao Shanming was awakened by Ye Xuan's words. He forced a smile that looked like he was crying and laughing at the same time.
"Taoist priest, what's wrong with that little ghost just now? Why does he seem to be very afraid of me?" Ye Xuan looked at Mao Shanming and asked.
"You don't know?" Mao Shanming stared at him and said.
"Know what? I really don't know. Please tell me, Taoist priest! " Ye Xuan cupped his fists. He was indeed very curious. He did not know when he had this ability.
Looking at Ye Xuan's sincere expression, Mao Shanming took a deep breath and said, "The reason why that little ghost is afraid of you is because of the blood Qi of extreme Yang in your body!"
