"Fuck, you bastard boy, you still have the nerve to show up in front of me?" Taoist Qingfeng yelled at me when he saw me. As I mentioned before, I asked Taoist Qingfeng to deal with the zombie last time, but I didn't tell him that it was a zombie, which made him suffer a small loss, so he has always disliked me.

I was so depressed. Is it necessary? It's been so long, why am I still angry? But I didn't dare to say it out loud, mainly because I couldn't beat him. If I could beat him, I would just go up and beat him up.

I said with a big smile on my face, "No, I just missed you. I heard you were coming here to catch ghosts, so I came to see you."

After listening to what I said, he glared at me and snorted. As the saying goes, don't hit a smiling person, which is probably what it means. Since I talked to him like this, he wouldn't continue to be angry with me, and that wouldn't necessarily make him seem too petty.

Fortunately, Sun Qingjia sensed that the atmosphere was a little off, so he stepped forward and changed the subject, saying, "You must be Taoist Qingfeng, right? I am Sun Qingjia. I asked you to come here mainly because I ran into some minor trouble."

Taoist Qingfeng glanced at me and sneered, "Maybe it's more than just a small trouble, otherwise this little guy should be able to be dealt with. Get in the car first and we'll talk on the way." After that, he walked out of the station. I chuckled and followed him immediately with Sun Qingjia.

Actually, from some aspects, I still admire Taoist Qingfeng, for example, his Taoist skills. I saw the strength of the zombie last time. If I had gone up, I would have died. Taoist Qingfeng solved it by himself. So from a personal perspective, I still admire him. But privately, this old guy is very vengeful and lustful. It's a pity that I still need his help now, otherwise I will definitely go up and beat him.

But these were just thoughts. We took a taxi and soon arrived at Sun Qing's house. After we entered, Taoist Qingfeng frowned and asked, "What's going on? There is a lot of resentment here."

Sun Qingjia originally did not have high hopes for Taoist Qingfeng, because when he saw Taoist Qingfeng's attire, he could not associate him with the legendary respected master. Instead, he behaved like a thug. However, when he heard Taoist Qingfeng say this, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he felt that this Taoist might have some real skills, so he started talking about himself from Xu Jinglei's suicide at the beginning, and finally talked about Taoist Qingfeng.

When Taoist Qingfeng heard this, he smiled and said, "It's just a ghost baby that has not grown into anything powerful. It's no big deal. There's no need to be so nervous. Let's go out for a drink and relax." Sun Qingjia and I felt relieved when we heard Taoist Qingfeng say this with such confidence. However, no one expected that Taoist Qingfeng's carelessness almost cost the three of us our lives.

But speaking of ghost babies, I think of the story that my master often told me, the story of my father and mother. Since they both found their master, what happened to them later? What happened to the ghost baby in the end

But now is not the time to think about those things. Taoist Qingfeng took us out for a drink, and then we wandered around for a while. Although Taoist Qingfeng suddenly became lustful again and wanted to find a place to "play", Sun Qingjia was afraid that he would have too much fun tonight and would be weak tomorrow, so he pulled him back.

The next day was not so relaxing. I ate something and went out to buy materials for drawing talismans. There are usually regulations on the materials for drawing talismans. You must use ink and cinnabar to draw talismans, especially cinnabar. The reason why cinnabar is often used is that the ancients believed that cinnabar has the effect of suppressing evil spirits. The most common carrier of talismans is peach wood, because in ancient times, peach wood was believed to have a strong power to drive away evil spirits.

These things are relatively common. With Sun Qingjia and I together, it was not a big deal. We bought everything in less than an hour. Then we went back and found a corner to concentrate on drawing talismans.

Taoist Qingfeng was also preparing something by himself. At noon, a courier arrived. It turned out that Taoist Qingfeng asked his friend to mail him the "tools". He especially despised those Taoists and the like. If they carried these things with them all day, if they were found by the police, they would think they were feudal and superstitious. It would be better to be like him, just send it by courier after finding out the address. Anyway, he sent a lot of things by mail, and set up the Taoist altar like last time.

The Taoist altar didn't play any role when we dealt with zombies last time. Later I found out that the Taoist altar was prepared for the salvation of Yang's mother. The Taoist altar is only suitable for catching ghosts. For zombies and the like, it is better to fight directly in hand-to-hand combat. This is what Taoist Qingfeng told me.

But when he saw the muscles on Taoist Qingfeng's arms and then looked at mine, he shook his head and said, "I'm still fighting hand-to-hand. I'm just delivering food." After Sun Qingjia accompanied me to buy materials, he followed Taoist Qingfeng to do odd jobs. Time passed quickly while he was drawing talismans. Finally, I stopped at seven o'clock in the evening.

Because drawing talismans is a very physically demanding task, it is not as simple as just drawing a few strokes as you might imagine, so I had to recover some of my strength in advance. In the whole afternoon, I drew a total of five 'Talismans to Suppress Evil Spirits'. You may say that it is a little too little, but for me it is actually quite good. In the past, I sometimes only drew three in an afternoon. Today's performance was considered an exceptional performance.

I don't know why, but the usually bustling city seemed so quiet today, making the atmosphere even more eerie. Sun Qingjia and I were still a little worried, after all, he and I had seen how powerful this ghost was. Taoist Qingfeng seemed very relaxed, and he actually set up a small karaoke bar in Sun Qing's house and sang non-stop.

Sun Qingjia and I looked at each other in silence and then sat down to rest our eyes. There was no need to concentrate on waiting for the ghost baby to appear. After all, with the passionate Taoist Qingfeng around, we were not afraid of the ghost baby's sudden attack.

But I accidentally fell asleep. I woke up because of the cold. I don't know why, but the temperature suddenly dropped. I shivered with cold, squinting my eyes, and saw that Taoist Qingfeng was not in the hall at some point, and Sun Qingjia was also sleeping next to me.

I rubbed my eyes and took out my phone to check the time. Damn, it was 12 o'clock. Suddenly, the temperature around me dropped a few degrees. I felt something was wrong. The temperature suddenly dropped during this period of time. What did it mean? There must be something dirty approaching us.

Let me digress on this point. If the temperature drops suddenly when you are alone and someone calls you from behind, don't answer. Generally speaking, the temperature around you will drop rapidly when there is something dirty within ten meters of you.

At that time, my heart really felt like it had fallen into an ice hole in the middle of summer. Isn't this playing with my life? Why did Brother Qingfeng suddenly disappear? I didn't think about it any further. I took out the five "Talismans to Suppress Evil Spirits" I had drawn and looked around. Unfortunately, the Cow's Tears were five meters away from me, and I didn't dare to move around to get them.

Strangely, the dirty thing did not show up, and the scene became deadlocked. Sun Qingjia, who was not far away, was still sleeping on the sofa, and I could faintly hear his panting in his sleep.

I was anxious. He was such a coward, yet he could still continue sleeping at this time. I really admired him. However, he still slept calmly and did not wake up suddenly because of my anxiety.

Listening to the ticking sound of the clock, time passed by minute by minute. My clothes had already been soaked with cold sweat. As I was extremely nervous, I suddenly felt dizzy. At this time, a black shadow suddenly rushed towards Sun Qingjia. I immediately chanted a spell and threw the talisman at the black shadow, but the black shadow was so fast that it dodged in an instant and then crashed into Sun Qingjia's body.

Judging from the current situation, it seems that Sun Qingjia has been possessed by evil spirits again. Being possessed by evil spirits is also called "being possessed by a ghost." Generally speaking, when a "ghost" attaches to a normal person, it is called "being possessed by a ghost."

Scientifically speaking, being possessed by a ghost is caused by a latent self-consciousness, which can be said to be a mental illness. But in this environment, only ghosts believe that this is a mental illness!

At this moment, I immediately recalled the stories of Yin and Yang masters that I heard when I was a child. In the stories, a child of a family was possessed by a fox. As a result, his family found that his child always got up at night, holding a rag in his mouth and turning around on all fours. His expression became like a fox. He also cursed and foamed at the mouth. He also asked his family for things.

The family saw that something was wrong and knew that it was hysteria. They quickly invited a man and a woman to perform shaman dances. The two invited were really talented. The "big shaman" took one look and knew that the child was bewitched by a fox. She immediately asked the "second shaman" to beat the small drum, and then she started to invite the gods.

I don't remember which god the "great god" in the story invited to negotiate with the child possessed by a fox, but I remember that the negotiation didn't go well because the fox wanted too many things. Finally, the real "great god" got angry and asked the owner for two pieces of poplar branches, then pinched the child's left middle finger and twisted it hard, and the fox ran away. Later, the child got better.

I thought about it and immediately took out a pair of chopsticks from the kitchen and pinched Sun Qingjia's fingers. Sun Qingjia's eyes suddenly opened, and I saw that his eyes were full of bloodshot, and his eyeballs turned blood red. He roared and rushed towards me.

I didn't react immediately and he actually knocked me to the ground.
