Hearing Yan Kai's words, Lu Sheng was not angry, but just smiled.

"Since that's the case, then I will greet the three teachings and nine schools in the city for the two priests. When you need help, you can go straight to all the clothing stores, pharmacies, and blacksmiths in the city. They can provide convenience for the three of you."

"That's fine too." Yan Kai nodded solemnly. "Then, since this is the case, let's take our leave first and go to the lotus room to have a closer look."

"Prince, please." Lu Sheng said with a smile.

"I'll go too."

The knight-errant woman Zhuofeng followed.

Watching Yan Kai and the others leave, Lu Sheng ordered them to walk freely throughout the Lu family. All are unstoppable.

"Xiao Sheng, do you think those three people are useful?" Lu Quanan walked in from the door, and he also heard the previous conversation.

"It doesn't matter if it's useful or not. You can see that I'm injured, and you can use a bottle of potion to heal me. This alone is enough for our money." Lu Sheng said lightly.

"This matter is up to you to decide. Everyone in the mansion, including me, is under your arrangement. You can do it without worry!" Lu Quanan said seriously.

"Thank you dad." Lu Sheng smiled.

After Lu Quanan also left, Lu Sheng returned to his bedroom, and Xiao Qiao fed himself nourishing bird's nest spoon by spoon.

Since he was injured before, he has not seriously improved his internal martial arts.

After all, if the body is injured and the energy is consumed to improve martial arts, it is not getting stronger but courting death.

But this time the yin energy in his body was expelled, and he also began to think about how to define his future development path.

While drinking the bird's nest, Lu Sheng sat on the rattan chair in his small courtyard, narrowed his eyes slightly, and remained motionless lazily.

"Master, Miss Qingqing hasn't come back for several days. Could it be...?" Xiaoqiao asked in a low voice with worry on her face.

"Don't be in a hurry, there's nothing you can do if you're in a hurry, just leave professional matters to professionals, and it's just a disservice if we go." Lu Sheng shook his head.

"Slave maid, just seeing the second lady's eyes red and swollen from crying every day, I feel sorry for her."

Xiao Qiao whispered.

"My lord, do you think they can do it?"

"Should be able to find out something, as for how much, I don't know." Lu Sheng replied casually, but he was wondering whether what Yan Kai said was true.

After careful deduction, there is no need for the other party to lie to him. If he really wanted to extort money, the small bottle of Huanyang water before was enough for the other party to make a lot of money.

For the time being, those few people will take care of this matter, so there is no need to worry.

The ghost in the Lu Mansion has also been dealt with, and it will be safe in a short time.

Just from what Yan Kai said, there are probably quite a few ghosts in Jiulian City.

A strong sense of crisis suddenly rose in Lu Sheng's heart.

He had to do his best to deal with the ghost before, if there were more...

"You go out first, I want to be quiet and have a rest." Lu Sheng said suddenly.

Xiao Qiao hummed, helped him onto the bed, covered him with the quilt, and left the room on her own initiative.

With the creaking sound of closing the door.

Lu Sheng straightened up from the bed slowly, got out of bed, and took out a small gray paper bag from the drawer of the bookcase.

Gently open the paper bag, inside is some off-white fine powder.

This is the residue left after the ghost finally died.

Lu Sheng didn't know if it would be useful, but the little things left by these supernatural creatures might have some uses, so he didn't throw away the powder, but carefully put it away.

Hold the powder and spread it out on the table.

"It seems that if you want to know the purpose of this thing, you have to start with Yan Kai and the other two."

He thought about it.

Putting away the powder, he went to bed peacefully and fell asleep this time.

When I woke up, it was already dark.

Xiao Qiao is lighting up the lamp in the room. At the age of twelve, she is wearing a small white skirt and her buttocks are facing Lu Sheng, pouted, very attractive.

The hem of the skirt is the kind of lotus leaf skirt that reaches to the knees, and when the back is turned up like this, it just highlights the round and upturned little butt.

"Cough cough" Lu Sheng coughed softly, feeling refreshed after waking up.

Xiao Qiao realized it immediately and turned around quickly.

"My lord, you're awake! There's still tremella soup boiled in the kitchen, would you like a bowl, lord?"

"What time is it?"

"It's almost Haishi." Xiaoqiao quickly replied.

Lu Sheng did the calculations, Haishi is between 9:00pm and 11:00pm.

"It's so late, those who went out during the day, have any news come back?"

"You mean those priests?" Xiaoqiao asked.

"yes."

"Brother Yu Han has been waiting outside for a long time, there should be news." Xiaoqiao replied.

"Let Yu Han come in."

Lu Sheng rubbed his temples, and began to get out of bed and get dressed.

After he tidied up his clothes and jacket, Yu Han, the burly man from before, walked in.

"My lord." He bowed his hands.

"Then Taoist Yan Kai has news?"

"Yes, Daoist Yan Kai went to the Zheng family. Half an hour ago, he solved the similar disappearance case of the Zheng family. Now he has gone to the old residence of the Xu Mansion." Mentioning Yan Kai, Yu Han showed a trace of Admiration.

This person was able to solve that weird matter so quickly.

You must know that he has seen the appearance of that ghost before, he can possess, fly, and is fast, with a very strong poisonous gas on his body, even the eldest son did not notice the trick.

Such a monster, the Taoist leader can easily deal with it, he is indeed an expert.

Lu Sheng was not surprised.

"Then, what about Miss Zhuofeng?"

"I have already found some clues. My subordinates called a few people and followed Miss Zhuofeng out of the city. There should be a reply soon."

Yu Han replied.

"As expected of professionals, these things are in their hands, but within a day, there will be clues." Lu Sheng sighed. "Let's go, accompany me to eat something, I hope my sister is okay."

Neither Yu Han nor Xiaoqiao dared to respond. As servants, no matter how they answered this kind of matter, it would be a troublesome matter.

Lu Sheng led the two of them out of the bedroom, and there were two guards guarding the door, and a table of food and drink had already been prepared outside.

A few maids were wiping the dishes and glasses swiftly.

Lu Sheng sat down, took a bite of food with his chopsticks, and stuffed it into his mouth before eating.

"There is news! Eldest Prince! There is news!"

Suddenly there was a rush of shouts from outside the yard.

Lu Sheng stood up at once, and saw a stumbled servant rushing in at the gate of the courtyard, gasping for breath while shouting.

"Second Miss, there is news about Second Miss! Breaking the Dao Temple outside the city!"

Outside Jiulian City, there are three Taoist temples, but if it is said to be a Taoist temple, there is only one.

To the north of Jiulian City, near the white ice ocean, is a stretch of barren mountains. There is a Taoist temple in the mountains. I don't know what kind of Taoist is enshrined, let alone when it was built.

Lu Sheng knew that place, he had visited it several times when he was a child.

When it was raining outside, they hid in that broken Taoist temple.

"But the Taoist temple near the white ice ocean?" Lu Sheng asked.

"It is indeed there." The servant replied quickly. "Miss Zhufeng said that the missing people are likely to be concentrated in that Taoist temple. Let us go and check by ourselves."

"Where are Daoist Yan Kai and the others?"

"They've already gone ahead!"

Lu Sheng squinted his eyes, he is in good health, he shouldn't be in such a hurry to join in the fun.

But the opportunity is rare.

It would be fine if Taoist Yan Kai wanted to stay here for a long time, but judging from the news from the other party, the two of them didn't seem to want to stay here for a long time, but more like chasing some clues and passing by here.

"It seems that if we want to extract the legendary exorcism secret technique or some profound method from this Taoist, we still need to think of a way."

Lu Sheng's original plan was to obtain from Yan Kai some mental methods used by the legendary qi trainers and immortal cultivators.

Now that there are such things as demons and ghosts, there may also be that kind of method for cultivating immortals.

"Call a dozen people and go take a look together."

Thinking of this, Lu Sheng ordered.

"Yes!" Yu Han hurriedly responded.

... ... ... ... ... ... ... ...

The evening wind howled, extremely cold and biting.

Between the mountains, a long line of red torches moved quickly among the mountains.

In the lead was Lu Sheng who was riding a horse and wrapped in a thick coat.

Behind him is Yu Han, and then the rest of the dozen or so guards.

A group of people marched for an incense stick of kung fu in the dark night, and soon found the road leading to the Po Taoist Temple that Zhuanfeng said.

A group of people held torches, wore weapons such as swords, bows and arrows, and wore leather helmets. They looked not much different from real soldiers.

The crowd advanced hundreds of steps in the cold wind, and finally, a dilapidated gray-yellow old Taoist temple appeared in the forest ahead.

In the originally quiet and dark Taoist temple, at this time, there were continuous flashes of fire, and there were faint voices of people shouting.

The cold wind was too strong, Lu Sheng listened carefully, but he still could only hear the sound of the wind, which covered the sound in the Po Dao Temple.

When he was still a hundred steps away from the Taoist temple, he raised his hand to signal the team to stop.

At this time, the distance was getting closer, and everyone heard the voice shouting from the Taoist temple, it should be Taoist Master Yan Kai.

"My lord, what should we do?"

Yu Han was a little nervous, and his forehead was sweating a little.

"No hurry." Lu Sheng tightened the fox fur coat on his body, and the snow-white fluffy fox fur wrapped his neck tightly, making him feel very warm.

"If we go now, we can only become a drag on the Taoist priest. So we can't rush."

Lu Sheng said in a deep voice.

Everyone waited for a while, the flames in the Taoist temple gradually became brighter and brighter, and Taoist Master Yan Kai's voice became clearer and clearer.

Lu Sheng waited quietly outside for a while, until the shouts in the Taoist temple gradually died down, and then he signaled a guard to give him a torch.

Holding the torch in his own hand, he approached the Taoist temple.

Yu Han wanted to stop it, but after thinking about it, he gritted his teeth again.

"Follow!" he shouted, and the second one followed Lu Sheng.

The rest of the guards were a little hairy, but the rules in the mansion were like a mountain, and they had to go forward with Yu Han.

Although there was Yan Kai standing in front of them and the Eldest Young Master in front, most of these guards were young children who had never seen blood, so it was already pretty good to be able to survive in this kind of battle without running away.
