Chapter 161 That Thing
At dusk, Master Qiyuan and Master Qicheng were walking on their way home. Master Qicheng looked back at the alley.
"Brother, is Yu'er okay living in their house?"
Qi Yuan Zhenren glanced at him and said, "With Zhenren Decheng and Zhenren Shanzheng here, what's wrong with that?"
Qicheng Zhenren thought for a moment and said to Qiyuan Zhenren: "I will go and find out about the old woman's family in the next few days."
Qi Yuan Zhenren looked at him and said, "Okay, but don't do anything unnecessary."
It was late at night. Master Decheng and Master Shanzheng were sitting under the eaves. Master Decheng whispered, "We should pay more attention to Xia Yu's cultivation in the next two days."
Shan Zheng nodded: "At noon, let them come out to bask in the sun together."
Xia Yu originally thought that he would have some sleeplessness that night, but he closed his eyes and fell asleep quickly.
The next day, when the sky was bright, he opened his eyes for a long time before he finally woke up.
He went to the front yard and saw a yard full of children, surrounding Master Decheng and listening to him tell stories.
Shi Xiaoliu turned around and saw him, and whispered, "There's some soup in the kitchen, go in and have a bowl."
Xia Yu followed Shi Xiaoliu into the kitchen. After drinking a bowl of clear soup, he felt warm both physically and mentally. He said to Shi Xiaoliu, "Xiaoliu, do you have so many children in your yard every day?"
Shi Xiaoliu smiled and shook his head: "This is the first time that so many children have come to listen to my master's storytelling."
"Master, are you good at telling stories?"
Shi Xiaoliu still shook his head: "Originally, the master wanted to tell his experiences to me and Lan Jie'er, but yesterday a child passed by and thought that the master could tell a story, so he came with a stool to listen to the story."
Xia Yu could see that Shi Xiaoliu really liked the children in the yard, and he leaned over to look at Master Decheng who was telling the story, and he probably also liked the children in the yard.
Shi Xiaoliu and Xia Yu came out of the kitchen. When Shi Zelan saw them, she whispered, "Do you want to stay and listen to the story?"
Shi Xiaoliu looked at Xia Yu, and after he nodded, Shi Xiaoliu smiled and said, "Let's sit under the eaves and listen to the story."
The stories told by Master Decheng are still not as exciting as those told by the storyteller.
But the children were very happy. When Master Decheng stopped to drink water to moisten his throat, they looked at him with eager eyes.
The neighbors knew where the children were going and would come to check on the situation. When they arrived, Master Decheng happened to say that the male protagonist was in a dangerous situation.
"All of a sudden, there was lightning and thunder, and the demon revealed its true form, with eight hands reaching out."
"ah."
The children in the yard covered their mouths, but the adults outside the yard shouted.
Shi Xiaoliu went over to open the gate to the yard, and the adults said with some embarrassment that they were there to take the children home.
Decheng Zhenren said that he also needed to take a break. As the children left, they looked back every few steps. The brave ones asked, "Uncle Cheng, will you tell me a story this afternoon?"
"No."
Master Decheng answered the children's questions very seriously. After the children left, he smiled and said to Master Shanzheng who was leaving the room, "I never thought that I also have the ability of a storyteller."
Shanzheng Zhenren smiled and agreed: "Brother, I didn't expect your story to be so attractive."
"Uncle Master, are the things you are telling me all your real experiences?"
Master Decheng looked at Xia Yu with a smile: "Well, just to avoid scaring the children, some things were added and some scary things were omitted."
"Uncle Master, I don't think they are afraid at all. Instead, the adults who are here to listen are a little more afraid."
"Children are ignorant and fearless, but adults, when they know more, will naturally be afraid of unknown things."
At noon, Master Decheng and Master Shanzheng entered the room, and Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan accompanied Xia Yu in the yard to bask in the sun.
The two of them watched Xia Yu close his eyes, watched him fall asleep quickly, and then almost at the same time saw a shadow behind him growing bigger and bigger.
Shi Zelan directly threw out a talisman to ward off evil spirits, and Shi Xiaoliu reached out to wake Xia Yu up. He opened his eyes and looked at Shi Xiaoliu.
"Xiao Liu, is there something wrong?"
Shi Xiaoliu looked at him seriously: "Xia Yu, when you were in the temple, did you go anywhere else?"
Shi Zelan threw down another purification talisman, a flash of fire appeared, a scream was faintly heard, and then a sandalwood scent spread.
Master Decheng and Master Shanzheng left the room. They first looked at Xia Yu carefully, and then asked Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan: "What happened?"
Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan told them the truth, and Master Decheng reached out and felt Xia Yu's pulse.
"Yu'er, when you closed your eyes just now, did you feel anything strange?"
"Yes, I think the sun is warmer, and it doesn't seem so cold."
Shanzheng Zhenren pasted a purification talisman on Xia Yu and said, "Xia Yu, tell us in detail what happened to you in the temple."
"My father and uncle would do morning prayers with the monks, or discuss Buddhist scriptures with the great monk.
Except for standing in the yard for a while, I usually meditate in the room. ”
Shanzheng Zhenren told Decheng Zhenren: "We need to go to the temple. Xia Yu, with his talent, will attract unclean things in the temple. I'm afraid this temple is not very clean."
Master Decheng smiled at Xia Yu and said, "Okay, you continue to bask in the sun, and we will sit in the yard for a while."
Xia Yu looked at Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan: "What kind of shadow did you just see?"
"It was a very vague shadow. It looked small at first, but then it got bigger. We realized something was wrong. I couldn't tell what it was."
After Shi Xiaoliu finished speaking, he looked at Shi Zelan, who nodded in agreement.
Shi Zelan pointed at the talisman that had melted into dust on the ground and said, "I used two talismans. This phantom is not afraid of the evil-repelling talisman, but it can't stand the purification talisman."
Xia Yu sighed helplessly: "It's better with the shadow."
Shi Xiaoliu looked at him and said, "If you feel that there is anything wrong, you can call me and Lan Jie'er."
Shi Zelan took out a stack of talismans and stuffed them into Xia Yu's hand: "These are the talismans made by my master. If you really encounter something and you don't have time to call for help, just throw all of these over."
Xia Yu took the talisman and looked through it with great care. She said to Shi Zelan, "Sister Lan, these are all top-grade talismans. I can't use too many at a time."
In the afternoon, Xia Yu took a nap in the sun again. This time, Master Decheng and Master Shanzheng were watching over him, but they did not find anything wrong.
In the evening, Master Qiyuan and Master Qicheng arrived and decided to stay behind at night.
Xia Yu seemed a little annoyed and said to Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan: "If I knew what it was, I would never let it go."
