A middle-aged man in his forties or fifties stood outside the door. He was slightly plump and looked very smart. Beside him stood a young man in his early twenties who looked honest.
Mao Xiaofang looked at them in confusion." I'm Mao Xiaofang. May I ask who you are?”
The middle-aged man stepped forward and said," Priest Mao, I'm the shopkeeper of an inn in town. My surname is Chen. I'm the shopkeeper of an inn in town. I heard that Priest Mao is here, so I came to look for him."”
"Shopkeeper Chen, is there anything you need from me?" Mao Xiaofang asked.”
Shopkeeper Chen pointed at the young man behind him and said,""Priest Mao, he is our inn's waiter, Er Zhu. We came today to ask Priest Mao to come with us.”
Mao Xiaofang looked up at the sky and said to Shopkeeper Chen,""Since that's the case, we'll follow you! This is my disciple, Xiao Yi." He then pointed at Xiao Yi, who was beside him.
Shopkeeper Chen said,"Please follow me, Priest Mao and Brother Xiao. We'll talk on the way."”
Along the way, Shopkeeper Chen told them that the inn's business was originally very good. Recently, the inn was haunted, scaring away all the guests. The business was bleak. Shopkeeper Chen had no choice but to ask Mao Xiaofang for help. Now that Mao Xiaofang was willing to come with Shopkeeper Chen, Shopkeeper Chen was more than happy to have him.
Xiao Yi and Mao Xiaofang came to the inn. As expected, business was bleak and there were no customers.
The shopkeeper raised his hand enthusiastically and said,""Please come in."
As he spoke, he brought Xiao Yi and Mao Xiaofang into the inn and sat down.
Er Zhu quickly came up to pour tea and said politely,""Priest Mao, please have some tea. Brother Xiao, please have some tea.”
After Er Zhu poured the tea, he walked to stand behind Shopkeeper Chen.
Mao Xiaofang picked up the tea and drank half a cup. He put down the teacup and asked Shopkeeper Chen,""What kind of ghost is it? One or a few?"
Shopkeeper Chen said,"One female ghost has already caused such a ruckus. If there were more, my inn might be torn down." " Priest Mao, I'll be counting on the two of you this time. If there's anything you need, just tell me. I'll definitely do it."”
Mao Xiaofang shook his head and said,"There's no need for that at the moment. Shopkeeper Chen, you don't have to be so polite."”
Shopkeeper Chen immediately smiled when he heard that.""I feel much more at ease now that you've said that. You don't know, but because of this thing, I'm having a hard time calming down!!”
Hearing Shopkeeper Chen's words, Xiao Yi had a little plan in his heart. It had been so long, it was time for him to try being independent!
So he turned to Mao Xiaofang and said,""Master, let me do it this time! If it doesn't work, Master will make a move."
Mao Xiaofang hesitated for a moment, then nodded and handed the peach wood sword to Xiao Yi, saying to Xiao Yi,""Then be careful. I'll be watching from the side.”
When Shopkeeper Chen saw Mao Xiaofang handing this matter over to Xiao Yi, he was tongue-tied and said,""Priest Mao, this Brother Xiao looks very young. There shouldn't be a problem handing him over, right?”
Mao Xiaofang smiled at Shopkeeper Chen and said,""Shopkeeper Chen, don't worry. I'll watch from the side. If he can't handle it, I'll take action at any time.”
Xiao Yi couldn't be bothered with Shopkeeper Chen's thoughts. He took out the cow's tears and rubbed some on his eyes. He walked to the center of the hall, holding the peach wood sword tightly in his hand and carefully paying attention to everything around him.
To be honest, Xiao Yi was also very nervous.
The surroundings were quiet. Suddenly, a gust of wind blew, causing the doors and windows to shake non-stop. The surrounding atmosphere also became gloomy.
"Woo!"
A voice rang out, and Shopkeeper Chen and Er Zhu trembled in fear.
"Woo!"
The sound was getting closer and closer. Xiao Yi held the peach wood sword and stared at the door and window.
"Woo!"
A white figure appeared. Xiao Yi saw the white figure approaching and fiercely swung his palm. The female ghost in white was pushed back by Xiao Yi's palm. She steadied her body and glared at Xiao Yi fiercely. Then, she pounced at Xiao Yi with her claws bared. Xiao Yi saw her pouncing towards him and stabbed her with his peach wood sword.
Seeing the mahogany sword coming at her, the female ghost retreated in fear. Xiao Yi then waved his palm and hit the female ghost's shoulder. The female ghost was knocked to the ground by his palm. The female ghost struggled to get up from the ground and looked at Xiao Yi with eyes full of hatred.
Xiao Yi slowly raised his mahogany sword and was about to stab it. The female ghost saw it and retreated in fear, looking around. Suddenly, she turned around and pounced on Er Zhu. When Er Zhu saw the female ghost rushing towards him, he was shocked and stood rooted to the ground. The female ghost pounced on Er Zhu's body and disappeared. Er Zhu's body kept trembling.
Er Zhu's body stopped trembling. He gave Xiao Yi a strange look, then pounced on Xiao Yi and started to fight with him.
Mao Xiaofang looked at Er Zhu who was fighting with Xiao Yi and said loudly,""Xiao Yi, she got into Er Zhu's body.”
Shopkeeper Chen was pacing around anxiously."Priest Mao, that female ghost actually possessed Er Zhu, what should we do?”
Xiao Yi carefully avoided Er Zhu's entanglement and pushed him away forcefully. He took out the Demon-Revealing Mirror and shone it at Er Zhu. The Demon-Revealing Mirror emitted a golden light. The female ghost let out a miserable cry and bounced out of Er Zhu's body. She fell to the ground and struggled to get up.
Xiao Yi walked over and pointed his mahogany sword at her. He asked,""Why are you doing evil here?"
"I've never harmed anyone. I just want to go back."”
"Where are you from?" Xiao Yi asked again. Why are you here?"
The female ghost said," I'm a northerner. I came here to seek refuge with my relatives. I don't want to die of illness in a foreign land. I came to the inn because I want to go back. Please, I want to go back to my hometown.”
Xiao Yi pointed at Mao Xiaofang and said,"Go and beg my master!" See if he can send you back."
The female ghost got up from the ground, walked to Mao Xiaofang and knelt down, saying,""Taoist priest, please help me!”
Shopkeeper Chen also said,"Priest Mao, she looks very pitiful. Please help her!"”
Mao Xiaofang shook his head and said," If I send you back, even if I can see your family, your soul will scatter and you will never be able to reincarnate. I, Mao Xiaofang, can't do such a wicked thing. If you are willing, I can send you to reincarnate and be a new person."”
The female ghost said,"But I want to see my family."”
Xiao Yi walked over and said,"You should go reincarnate!" So what if they met again? Think about it, who would be willing to watch their loved ones die and never reincarnate?”
The female ghost hesitated and did not speak for a long time.
Mao Xiaofang looked at her and asked,"Have you thought it through?"”
The female ghost thought for a long time and finally nodded.
Mao Xiaofang said," I'll cast the spell later. You close your eyes and say loudly that I have no more memories of this world. That's enough. Do you understand?"”
The female ghost nodded.
Mao Xiaofang stood up and took the peach wood sword from Xiao Yi's hand. He walked to the center of the hall and took out a talisman. He stuck it on the sword and chanted a spell. White light fell from the sky. Mao Xiaofang said to the female ghost,"Stand under the white light, close your eyes, and speak."”
The female ghost quickly walked to the white light, closed her eyes, and said loudly,"I have no recollection of this world.”
Then, it disappeared with the white light.
"Pa, pa, pa…"
A round of applause sounded.#Daguan Review Passed: Daguan Time:05 15 2019 5:00PM
