Li Banfeng felt very sorry that there was one less body for alchemy.
He seriously regretted for a minute and began to look for the house spirit.
Being a house spirit is Li Banfeng's most urgent desire at the moment, no doubt about it.
With the home spirit, home cultivation can be improved. This is the only possibility to resolve the gap between travel cultivation and home cultivation. This is related to Li Banfeng's life.
Of course, with the house spirit, it means that Li Banfeng will live in this house from now on. He has to maintain a certain degree of long-distance travel every day to maintain the traveler's practice, and remember to return home in time to maintain the foundation of home practice.
It sounds very contradictory, but Li Banfeng believes he can find a solution.
What does a house spirit look like?
It should be a humanoid, right?
They all say it is a spirit, so it must be in human form.
There are three tiled houses and a warehouse in the yard. The warehouse is the rice seedling house. There is only a pile of firewood in it, and there are no humanoid creatures here.
I went to the east room, which contained many bottles and jars, as well as a pestle and casserole.
This should be Decai's room. These are the tools for making poison.
Is the house spirit here?
Li Banfeng still didn't see any humanoid creatures.
Walking out of Decai’s room, Li Banfeng saw a humanoid creature.
"My benefactor, we haven't thanked you yet." Xiao Yeci looked at Li Banfeng cautiously.
Xiao Yeci was still frightened after seeing him kill someone just now.
There was another person behind her, her daughter Lu Chunying, who timidly poked her head out and glanced at Li Banfeng.
"You're welcome." Li Banfeng didn't have time to pay attention to the mother and daughter. He walked around them and went straight to the tile-roofed house in the middle.
"My benefactor, what are you looking for?" Xiao Yeci followed.
"I'm looking for my wallet, but they took it away," Li Banfeng said casually, "I guess a lot of your things were also stolen. Look for it quickly, and leave as soon as you find it."
"My benefactor, it's best not to enter this house randomly. There are ghosts in the house."
Does she know there is a house ghost in this house?
Li Banfeng didn't rush to open the door. He pretended to know nothing and asked, "What house spirit did you just talk about?"
"A house spirit is a spirit that is cultivated at home. That old lady is a house cultivator. My benefactor must know that, right?"
"What is home renovation? I don't know!" Li Banfeng continued to pretend to be confused.
"The Taoists who practice cultivation in a house are called Taoists. They are not very powerful when they leave the house, but they are very powerful in the house.
The old lady just now, she is so good at fighting even at that age, my benefactor couldn't hurt her, and I couldn't argue with her. In fact, she should also be a first-level fighter, but in her house, even a second-level fighter might not be able to beat her. This is all thanks to the help of the house spirits. "
This woman seemed to be quite experienced. Li Banfeng suppressed his strong desire to learn and asked calmly, "What does the house spirit look like?"
"It's hard to say. Some house spirits look like water tanks, some look like rice spoons, some look like roof beams, and some look like old yellow dogs guarding the door."
Li Banfeng was surprised and asked, "Is there any home spirit that looks like a human?"
Xiao Yeci thought for a moment and said, "I haven't heard of this before."
Li Banfeng stared at Xiao Yeci for a moment and asked, "Have you ever seen a house spirit?"
Xiao Yeci shook his head and said, "No."
"You are talking nonsense without even meeting you! You are too talkative!" Li Banfeng didn't want to pay any more attention to this woman.
Xiao Yeci's cheeks turned red: "My benefactor, 'zui xiu' is an insult. Our sect is actually called wen xiu.
Because we have the skill of speaking eloquently, we are often called "mouth cultivators". What I just told you is what I read in a book."
Lu Chunying poked her head out from behind and said, "My mom has read a lot of books. She is very knowledgeable and her talking skills are amazing!"
Li Banfeng casually responded, "Yes, the tight ones are very tight."
It turns out that this woman is a cultivator. What skills do cultivators have?
Before Li Banfeng could ask, the woman took the initiative to explain: "To practice our Taoism, you need to read a lot of books. Only by reading a lot of books can you know what kind of people you meet, what kind of words you say, and how to respond to what kind of things you encounter."
Li Banfeng asked seriously, "How did you respond when you met this old lady?"
"My benefactor, you are making fun of me," Xiao Yeci said with his head down, "I have learned the art of speaking lotus words quite well, but I have never encountered a resident cultivator, and I didn't expect this old woman to be so stubborn.
But his two sons were persuaded. If it weren't for that old woman, they would have let me go.
Her youngest son is called Demao, and I don’t know where he is now. He told me that his mother was a house repairman, and that the house spirit was in his mother’s house.
It turned out that these were the words she got out of Demao's mouth, and they seemed very credible.
"Did he tell me what the old lady's house spirit looks like?"
Xiao Yeci shook his head and said, "He didn't dare to say it. He said the house spirit would hear it. He just said that it was not a big object."
Small objects?
Li Banfeng thought of the old lady's hairpin and the dagger.
If the house spirit is a similar object, can it be carried with us?
If you can carry it with you, the contradiction between practicing at home and practicing while traveling will be completely solved!
"If the house spirit can be carried with you, even if you leave the house, the house cultivator will still be protected by the house spirit. Wouldn't that make the house cultivator invincible?"
"Take the spirit out of the house? You don't dare to do such a thing!" Xiao Yeci's eyes widened, "My benefactor, you don't know anything about house maintenance.
Most of the house cultivators themselves don’t know what kind of place the house spirits are, so how dare they take them out! "
"What will happen if you take it out?"
"Some books say that house spirits are actually evil spirits. In a house built by a master, the evil spirits are tied up with iron chains. Once the evil spirits leave the house, there are no iron chains.
Once the chains are gone, who knows what the evil spirit will do?
I have never heard of a house repairman taking the house spirit out of the house, but I have heard of a house spirit becoming powerful and running out of the house. The evil spirit will kill anyone it sees. Several nearby villages have been wiped out.
That house repairman led his family to hide from place to place for more than a year, but in the end he still couldn't escape death. The whole family was killed by the house spirit without a single one left."
Li Banfeng smiled and said, "It's good that you can't take them out. Otherwise, next time I meet a house repairman, I don't know how to deal with them."
Although he said so, Li Banfeng felt disappointed in his heart. The conflict between the two Taoist sects, home cultivation and travel cultivation, which are incompatible with each other, is indeed not something that can be easily resolved.
But no matter what, let’s take over the house spirit first.
But before taking over the house spirit, he had to let the mother and daughter leave first. Li Banfeng didn't want others to know about his Taoism, and he didn't want any accidents to happen when receiving the house spirit.
Xiao Yeci said, "My benefactor, Decai told me that the things they robbed were all placed in the cellar in the backyard, not in the house."
The three of them came to the backyard, and Xiao Yeci continued, "He said the cellar is under the big rock next to the well."
There was indeed a stone pier next to the well. Li Banfeng was about to move the stone pier away when he turned around and looked at Xiao Yeci.
I moved the stone pillar away, and she kicked me into the cellar. What should I do?
Xiao Yeci was startled and quickly explained: "My benefactor, I didn't lie to you. I told you the truth."
There is no way to verify whether what she said is true or not, but Li Banfeng is very curious about one thing.
Why would I believe her?
Is this the skill of mouth repair?
Xiao Yeci saw the clue and quickly explained: "My benefactor, sometimes I can't control my lotus-spitting technique and use it.
Don't be suspicious. I'll move the stone away and then go down and get the things back."
This stone pillar looked to weigh several hundred pounds, and Li Banfeng didn't think that the woman could really move it.
But Xiao Yeci was very confident: "We are all people with great skills. Our strength is definitely not comparable to that of ordinary people. My benefactor, just watch. I don't need your help."
Li Banfeng was watching beside her. No matter what flowers she spit out, Li Banfeng had no intention of reaching out.
Xiao Yeci squatted, spread his legs, tightened his pants, hugged the stone pillar, and took a deep breath.
Her pretty face flushed red as she clenched her teeth. She used all her strength and actually moved the stone pillar away.
There was indeed a door under the stone pillar. Xiao Yeci panted and said, "My benefactor, I'll go down and take a look first. Chunying, you stay up there and don't move!"
Li Banfeng did not give in and just watched Xiao Yeci go into the cellar. Not long after, Xiao Yeci climbed out of the cellar and said, "My benefactor, there are a lot of things down there. I don't know which one is yours."
"Don't worry about my stuff, just grab your own stuff and come up quickly!"
Xiao Yeci climbed out of the cellar holding a wicker box. "My benefactor, all our belongings are here. What does your wallet look like? I'll go down and get it for you."
Li Banfeng lowered his eyes and looked Xiao Yeci up and down: "Why are you helping me?"
Xiao Yeci lowered his head and said, "My benefactor, what you said is true. My mother and I owe you our lives."
"Are you doing this to repay a favor?" Li Banfeng didn't believe it.
"It's to repay a favor, but, but I also have something to ask for." Xiao Yeci's voice became softer and softer as he spoke.
Li Banfeng had no expression on his face: "What's the matter?"
"My mother and I are going to the Ligou of Yaowanggou. We are unfamiliar with the people and the place, and the journey is dangerous. We would like to ask you to give us a ride."
"No!" Li Banfeng refused directly, "It's not far from Ligou, just over thirty miles away. I can show you the way."
After saying that, Li Banfeng drew a simple map on the ground.
Xiao Yeci looked at the map, then at Li Banfeng, and pleaded, "This is our first time in Yaowanggou. We were so scared along the way. Please give us a ride, and we'll pay you!"
"Even if you give me money, it won't work. I want to stay here and fight to the death with the house spirit. You two should leave now!"
Xiao Yeci was stunned: "My benefactor, do you still want to fight with the house spirit?"
Li Banfeng straightened his back and said, "What else? Let this evil spirit stay here and harm the world?
You have read so many books, but you still don't know what a great hero is?"
