Chapter 19 Chapter 19
Because my arms are too short to make hand gestures, I tried hard to learn how to use the Dao without making hand gestures and I got used to this reason...
It...it looks quite similar.
Tang Yang thought in a daze. He heard that some Taoist temples' Taoist children can only start learning Taoism when they are in their teens. He now suspects that this is the reason.
Ouyang Xiu was also shocked by this reason, and after a while she managed to utter: "It makes sense, it makes sense."
Mo Kaize, who was listening nearby, had a slightly changed expression on his face. He suddenly asked in a low voice, "Mr. Yuan can use Taoist magic without making hand gestures, so his spiritual power must be quite high, right? I wonder which Taoist temple did you learn from?"
Yuan Tian's eyes changed slightly, he glanced at him and smiled slightly: "That's not important, anyway, I can be said to have betrayed my master now. As for my spiritual power, it's just average. Anyway, my master has always disliked me."
Mo Kaize hesitated for a moment and wanted to say something else, but the Taoist priest from Sande Temple in the room interrupted their conversation and said, "Quiet."
They looked at each other and tacitly agreed not to say anything more.
At the same time, the Taoist priest finished the last formula and pointed two fingers at the table. The yellow talisman on the table flew around without wind. At the same time, the peach wood sword on the table also flew up, flying around the room as if it had eyes.
At first glance, this scene looked quite realistic. Tang Yang couldn't help but sigh in a low voice: "It's much more realistic than yours."
This is called catching ghosts, while that of the little boss is called fighting and talking nonsense!
In response, Yuan Tian rolled his eyes. Why did he have to make things so complicated when he could have taken action or not? If he had encountered a real evil spirit, the evil spirit would have killed him so many times if he had the time to chant spells!
The yellow talisman and the peach wood sword flew several circles, circling Ouyang Xiu at the door for a few times, and finally flew back to the table in front of the Taoist priest and remained motionless.
The Taoist frowned and muttered to himself: "This shouldn't be the case..."
It seemed that the Taoist magic had no effect. Yuan Tian sighed inwardly and stepped forward to remind him: "Master, there is not much Yin energy here."
The Taoist priest then looked at him, stared at him for two seconds, and frowned: "You look familiar."
Yuan Tian said calmly, "Really? Maybe my mask looks familiar to you."
The Taoist priest was skeptical and asked again, "Are you a sorcerer?"
The sorcerer is a general term for those who practice Taoism, not just Taoists. The Taoist from Sande Temple probably couldn't figure out Yuan Tian's background for a while, so he asked this question.
Yuan Tian readily agreed: "Yes."
"Nice to meet you." The Taoist said calmly, "I am a Taoist monk from Sande Temple. What is your name, Taoist friend?"
Although he felt that the young man had no ill intentions, the Taoist priest felt that he still had to show his master first. In this way, whether this person had evil intentions or wanted to steal his life, he would have to think twice.
"My last name is Yuan." Yuan Tian said with a smile, and pointed at Ouyang Xiu next to her, "This is the victim, Ms. Ouyang. She didn't know that her agent invited you. What a coincidence."
He pointed at Tang Yang who looked indifferent on the other side and said, "Who is this..."
After thinking for a while, he still didn't know how to introduce him. In the end, Tang Yang said with a cold face, "Just a bystander."
Cong Shu: “…………” Did your family take the taxi to the hotel?
Seeing that the two people in front of him were not going to tell him the details, Cong Shu did not want to talk to them. So he said, "I have searched the entire room just now, and there are no items that may be haunted by ghosts. The yin energy here is not strong. Although there are traces of ghosts, they are not ghosts that have lived here for a long time. It is possible that the ghosts outside who were offended by Miss Ouyang deliberately came to mess with her, and they should not intend to kill her."
"No, that thing wants to kill me!" Ouyang Xiu was a little excited, clenching his fists. "I don't think I have offended anyone. Although I don't believe in ghosts and gods, I don't disrespect them. But that thing, the things it did were simply aimed at taking my life!"
Her eyes were red, "If Xiao Mo hadn't been keeping an eye on me, I wouldn't know how many times I would have died!"
After saying this, Yuan Tian noticed that Mo Kaize was patting her on the back and comforting her in a low voice.
Tang Yang spoke up at this time: "Since we have no clues for the time being, why don't we just wait and see? I think that since the ghost has been looking for Ouyang Xiu for several days in a row, tonight will probably be no exception."
Mo Kaize paused.
Yuan Tian silently retracted his gaze and said softly, "You are right, waiting for the ghost to come is feasible. I still have some doubts, maybe the ghost is being instructed by someone."
Cong Shu looked at him hesitantly: "You mean, raising a little ghost?"
Ouyang Xiu's heart skipped a beat: "What do you mean? Someone is raising a ghost and letting it harm me?"
There were many stories of people raising ghosts in the entertainment industry, and the first thing she thought of was that it was done by people in the industry. But...
"I haven't touched anyone's cakes recently!" Ouyang Xiu was puzzled. "I haven't taken any new endorsements in the past six months, and I haven't had any disputes with anyone, let alone snatched anyone's roles. I'm also in a love window period, this shouldn't be the case..."
"Once we catch that ghost, we will understand everything." Yuan Tian said, and then said rather embarrassedly: "Miss Ouyang, the Taoist priest and I are here. If I can help you deal with the matter later, the commission..."
Cong Shu's indifferent expression fluctuated slightly, and it was obvious that he cared about this very much.
"As long as it can be solved, I will pay for both sides!" Ouyang Xiu was very generous.
Yuan Tian immediately clapped his hands and said with satisfaction: "That's it!"
Cong Shu also breathed a sigh of relief, and quietly put away the talisman paper and wooden sword. With help, he could still get the money, and he could save some effort.
But Mo Kaize said at this time: "I have an appointment tonight and I have to go out quickly. I'll leave you guys here."
Ouyang Xiu was a little surprised: "You didn't tell me you had something to do? What's wrong? Did Sister Yu ask you to do some work again?"
"No," Mo Kaize smiled at her, "Private matter. I'll be there and back quickly, and it won't affect your work tomorrow."
Seeing that he insisted, Ouyang Xiu hesitated and said, "Then... go ahead."
Mo Kaize nodded to Yuan Tian and the others, then turned and left.
As he walked away, he didn't notice that Yuan Tian quietly hooked his fingers, and a small light blue butterfly flew out from his fingertips and followed him away.
Tang Yang also suggested at this time: "I'll go to the convenience store outside to buy a few bottles of water."
Yuan Tian nodded and let him go.
About ten minutes later, Tang Yang came back with a large bag in his hand. He took out a few bottles of water and distributed them to others, and placed the rest on the sofa.
Since they were waiting for the ghost to come out, they had to pretend that the house was peaceful and quiet. Yuan Tian and Cong Shu both had their own way of hiding their auras, and only Tang Yang and Ouyang Xiu were sitting on the sofa, exposing themselves.
The four of them looked at each other in silence, each looking down at their phones. Time passed by minute by minute, and half an hour later Yuan Tian couldn't help but sighed, "It would be nice if I had a poker card."
Tang Yang took out his phone and showed the Landlord game on the screen: "Let's get a room and play a game?"
Cong Shu: "...Be serious, we have to catch ghosts later!" He wanted to hit someone.
Ouyang Xiu clenched her fists nervously: "I... I'm not in the mood to play..."
"Okay..." Yuan Tian was a little disappointed and put away his phone.
Seeing him being so careless, and Ouyang Xiu and Tang Yang being just ordinary people, Cong Shuxin felt a little tired. He didn't know how capable Yuan Tian was, but seeing that he had nothing in his hands, he must be just a little sorcerer who knew some unconventional magic. He looked only around 20 years old, still a child.
He couldn't help but said to Yuan Tian, "You just need to protect Miss Ouyang and Mr. Tang. If that thing is really someone else's little ghost, it will be more difficult to deal with, and it may even be lethal."
Raising a ghost is a very bad thing, and the things raised are also very evil, no less than ferocious evil ghosts. Cong Shu thought that if it was really a ghost, he was not sure if he could completely control it, let alone protect Ouyang Xiu and the others.
After thinking about it, he had no choice but to let Yuan Tian take charge first. When the time comes, he will charge into battle, and Yuan Tian will take care of the rear, which will be considered as his contribution.
Yuan Tian hesitated for a while, and finally said, "Okay."
As he was talking, a gust of cold wind blew in from the window, causing the gauze curtains to flutter. At the same time, tiny, sharp, and piercing sobs could be heard all around, eerie and terrifying, like something inhuman.
Ouyang Xiu instantly got goosebumps all over her body and cried, "Here he comes..."
A thick black fog floated in from the window, rushing towards Ouyang Xiu with full attack power. Tang Yang's eyes became sharp, and he pulled Ouyang Xiu to the side, and the black shadow missed.
Cong Shu in the dark appeared in time with his eyes shining, holding two talismans in his hands and throwing them into the air. At the same time, he muttered something and made hand gestures quickly.
The talisman hit the black fog accurately. The black fog screamed but was unharmed. Instead, it floated in another direction.
Then a pale, slender hand with a light blue glow suddenly stretched out from the darkness in that direction, raised high, and fell heavily.
With a "pop" sound, the black mist was blown away, hit the wall of the hotel and rolled to the ground.
The black fog dissipated, revealing the true appearance of the ghost inside.
It was a skinny little ghost about one year old, with a pale body and dark veins and bloodshot. The little ghost seemed to be stunned, covering its big head with its two paws, squeaking and yelling, and it didn't get up for a long time.
Cong Shu stood there in a daze, and after a while he looked at the owner of the hand. He had never seen such an arrogant way of catching ghosts in his life.
Well, it should be said that it is a way to fight ghosts!
"Huh!" Boss Yuan appeared from the darkness, swung the hand that had just patted the little ghost, and sighed, "I haven't exercised for too long, and my strength seems to have decreased."
Ouyang Xiu didn't care about him at all. She just stared at the little ghost under the wall with horror and said in a sharp voice: "It's a real little ghost! So, so scary!"
"It's really scary!" Tang Yang gasped, "There's even a small hole in the wall! Yuan, you're going to have to pay a lot of money."
Yuan Tian's breath hitched and her heart skipped a beat.
