Ye Shaoyang went to bed for a catch-up sleep, and slept until noon. When he woke up, Chen Yu was no longer there, and Xiao Ma was still sleeping with his butt out.
Ye Shaoyang thought for a while, and decided to go to the outer sect brother, and hurry up to get some business and make some money. The 1,000 yuan that Master gave me was almost used up for the ride, food and drink along the way. Every time he thinks of this matter, he becomes indignant, and once again curses Qing Yunzi for being raped by a female ghost.
"Get up!" Ye Shaoyang kicked the pony's buttocks. The pony owed him two lives, so there was no kindness to him.
Xiao Ma turned over and muttered: "Lei Gong won't beat the sleeping person, let me sleep for a while."
"Who said Lei Gong doesn't beat sleeping people, do you want me to summon Lei Gong for you to try?" Ye Shaoyang took out a lightning-inducing talisman and made a gesture to recite the spell.
Xiao Ma got up immediately, Ye Shaoyang used this trick to deal with the old pagoda tree last night, and it burned up in a blink of an eye, he was so impressed that it almost left a psychological shadow.
Xiao Ma rubbed his eyes and said nervously: "I just fell asleep again."
No way! Ye Shaoyang was shocked. He was on the next bed, and the panic bell didn't ring. Could this evil spirit be so powerful that he could avoid his own panic bell? "Tell me, what did you dream about?"
Xiao Ma pointed to Teacher Cang's poster, "I really dreamed of Teacher Cang, I dreamed of basking in the sun with her on the beach, with several beauties beating my legs and feeding me seafood..."
Ye Shaoyang wiped off his sweat and glared at the pony: "You are not dreaming, you are having a dream!"
"Help me find out where this place is, whether the taxi driver can find it." Ye Shaoyang took out a note from his pocket and handed it to him.
Xiao Ma looked it over and said, "This is an old residential area in the southern suburbs. There are alleys everywhere. It's hard to find. What are you doing here?"
"One of my outer sect brothers lives here, I'll go find him."
"No phone?"
"He has been down the mountain for 20 years. Where did he get the phone call back then? Only this address is left."
Xiao Ma wiped his sweat, "Okay. Then you can only hope that he didn't move, and that place wasn't demolished."
Ye Shaoyang was not familiar with Shicheng, so he was afraid that he could not find a place, so he took Xiao Ma together.
An hour later, the two arrived in the southern suburb of Shicheng by car. This place is a real old district, full of alleys. The two searched the streets and alleys. After half an hour, they finally found their destination in an old alley: Lao Guo's funeral.
"Since the funeral is held, and the surname is Guo, he must be right." Ye Shaoyang felt relieved.
"How does your senior brother do this business? It's too cheap." Xiao Ma was surprised.
"What do you know, it's just a cover."
In the center of the store, there is a coffin, with wreaths and firecrackers on one side, and paper figurines on the other wall. A man is drawing the facial features for the paper figurines. The two turned a blind eye when they entered the door.
Ye Shaoyang stood behind him and looked at it for a long time, and said: "You are a coffin shop, and you have a dark atmosphere. You draw the paper figurines too realistically, and it is easy to form evil spirits."
The man sneered, without looking back, "What's the matter with you?"
The pony asked sharply, "Are you the owner?"
"You bought a coffin?"
"Bah bah, I'll buy the coffin and I'll give it to you too. We're Maoshan Taoist priests!" Xiao Ma was depressed.
The man turned his head to look at him, smiled contemptuously, and continued with his work.
Ye Shaoyang stopped the pony, cleared his throat, and said loudly: "When you go out of the mountain gate, it's as deep as the sea, and you need to be carried when you walk in the rivers and lakes." - I just came down from the mountain, and I want to get mixed up in the society, and I rely on your help.
The man turned his head, looked at him in surprise, and said, "What's your surname?"
"My surname is Zhang." - I am a descendant of Zhang Tianshi, that is, a member of the Taoist sect.
"Where did you come from?"
"There is a mountain in the south." - The Southern School of Taoism is the righteous school, and Maoshan Sect is also among them. If you answer the one in the north, it is the Northern School, the Quanzhen School.
The man then asked, "What's on the mountain?"
Ye Shaoyang replied: "Thatch is all over the mountain and rock." - Maoshan.
The man looked happy and asked: "Flowers or weeds?"—Outer door or inner door.
Ye Shaoyang said with a smile: "A single seedling has been for sixteen years." - Inner sect, and it is a single pass, apprenticeship for sixteen years.
The man's eyes lit up: "Junior brother?"
Ye Shaoyang cupped his fists and said respectfully, "Senior Brother Guo."
The man took a deep breath and said excitedly, "I haven't been back to the mountain for twenty years. How is Master?"
"It's still the same, old and unprincipled."
The man laughed, completely relieved, dare to say that Qing Yunzi is old and unscrupulous, who else is there besides his direct disciple
"Come, come in, let's talk." Pushing open the inner door of the shop, invite Ye Shaoyang to enter.
Xiao Ma looked at the two foolishly, "Damn, the underground party joint, so many secret words, it's in the clouds."
Ye Shaoyang smiled and said, "There are too many charlatans, so we must guard against them."
Behind the inner door is a small living room. Lao Guo brewed a pot of tea, reminiscing about the old days with Ye Shaoyang, and brought up the old things in Maoshan, which was very emotional.
"When I was twenty-two years old, my family was killed by the evil corpse, and I was also poisoned by the corpse. Thanks to Master's rescue, I worshiped under the master's sect. Unfortunately, my talent was too dull to enter the inner sect, so I stayed under the master's sect. After five years, I learned some skills, went down the mountain and returned to my hometown, and opened this store."
Speaking of this, Lao Guo sighed, "For so many years, I have missed Master very much, but you also know that there are rules in Maoshan. Once the disciples of the outer sect leave the master, they are not allowed to go up the mountain for the rest of their lives. Junior brother, you are really amazing. In your early twenties, you can get Master's true biography, he is still the only inner disciple. Brother, I am ashamed."
Ye Shaoyang scratched the back of his head: "I am going to university in Shicheng now, and I will live there for a long time. What can I take care of, brother?"
Old Guo understood it as soon as he heard it, and said: "You came at the right time. I have a job recently. I can't take it by myself. I just want to find someone to join me. Junior brother, you are very smart, so there must be no problem."
Ye Shaoyang was stunned. Although Lao Guo is an outer disciple, he has also learned some Maoshan techniques. Even he can't handle it. He must not be an ordinary ghost. He hurriedly asked: "What is it?"
"Corpse demon!"
"Corpse demon?" Ye Shaoyang was quite surprised, "There are also corpse demons in the city?"
Xiao Ma interjected, "What is a corpse demon?"
Lao Guo glanced at him: "Who is he?"
"My classmate." Ye Shaoyang said, "Brother Guo, go ahead and say, what's going on with this ghost corpse?"
Lao Guo lit a cigarette and said, "There is a place called Gushan in Shicheng. Since last month, there have been a lot of homeless people dying in it, their heads were chewed to pieces, their brains were sucked dry, the police couldn’t find the murderer, so they had to seal the air-raid shelter and no one was allowed to enter or leave.”
"One night last week, a policeman in charge of guarding there also died, just like those dead: his head was bitten off, his brains were sucked dry, another guard escaped by chance, and when he came back, he kept saying that zombies did it , the police believed it was a supernatural event and found me. I didn't take it seriously at first, and went straight into the air-raid shelter. I was really lucky—no, no, it should be said that I was unlucky. I hit the zombie. I saw that I was covered in white hair… "
Ye Shaoyang said in shock: "Baimao, it really becomes a corpse demon, you can't fight it."
"Yeah, I knew it wasn't my opponent at first glance, so I ran away. Fortunately, I brought a lot of realgar and glutinous rice that day, so I blocked it for a while, otherwise my old life would have been confessed."
