Chapter 119 The Great Crisis(1/2)

Chen Ou rarely lets Xiao Lingying come out. After all, yin and yang are separated, and we usually come into contact with warlocks in the Taoist sect. However, Chen Ou loves Xiao Lingying very much. When the little guy comes back, he rolls up a gust of cold wind and falls on Chen Ou's shoulders. His chubby little hand grabs Chen Ou's ears, whispers a few words, then spreads his little hand and handes a small note to Chen Ou.

Chen Ou patted the little guy's head, put it into the soul urn, and then spread the note. We immediately put our heads over and saw three words written on the note: Come and sit.

Zhang Mengmeng said: "He knows we are following him?"

"If you understand this, do you need to say something?" I gave him a blank look and looked at Chen Ou. Then he and I ran to the hotel at the same time, took their own guys downstairs, and moved Gu Yun, who was still unconscious, to the hall and handed it over to the young lady at the front desk to watch, so as not to be killed in the room by the gods.

After a few words, Chen Ou led the way in front. We were very careful to pass the road, fearing that we would be killed by a car. In short, the three of us were all cautious, walking on thin ice, and we had just accelerated our speed when we arrived on the sidewalk opposite.

The speed of the little spirit infant is not comparable to that of us. It takes only a few minutes to go back and forth, but we walked for half an hour before finally stopping in front of a barrel building. I looked around and found that the environment here was very poor, the ground was bumpy and the water was poured out, and there was an unknown stench.

Chen Ou whispered: "Be careful, the alley here is compact and easy to lay out, and it is an excellent place to play tricks in summer."

Zhang Mengmeng also said: "There are many evil things in places where there are filthy and evil things." As he said that, he took out a purple talisman and squeezed it into his hand.

Last time Xiaohong gave them benefits, and they are now rich and always have purple talismans in their hands.

The three of them carefully passed through the two tube buildings and finally arrived in front of a courtyard house.

The courtyard is very old, the stone lions at the door are already black and covered with moss, and the patent leather on the vermilion door is bulging like fish scales, making it look dilapidated.

Chen Ou stopped here and made a gesture, meaning that this is the final destination.

The stone ridges in front of the gate have been polished very smoothly and have a sense of age. There is also a horse-tie stone standing on the left. It can be seen that it is an old house that has existed since the Ming and Qing Dynasties.

Although they have experienced vicissitudes, the tiles inside have been well repaired, which shows that the people living inside have spent a lot of money to maintain.

Zhang Mengmeng cursed: "This summer day, I see this big house and I know that I have a lot of exploiting people's wealth and ointment!"

This house is not worth much, but if it is included in the historical value and the land fee, it is even more valuable than a small villa.

However, this kind of house should not be bought later. After all, people who own this kind of house will not sell it easily. It is probably all left by their ancestors.

I didn't say anything, and made a gesture. Zhang Mengmeng and I immediately dispersed left and right, each on guard. Chen Ou stood in the middle and knocked on the door. As a result, after knocking twice, the door opened itself with a creaking sound, and a gap was cracked, and a squirming wind blew out from it. I couldn't help but shivered, but I soon realized that this yin energy was completely different from the yin spirit's yin energy. After it was blown, it would not make people uncomfortable.

Chen Ou stretched out his hand, paused for a few seconds before gently pushing the door open completely. Almost the moment the door was pushed open, dozens of pairs of green eyes in the yard turned around and stared at us.

The hairs all over my body opened in an instant, and I had goose bumps all over my body. Chen Ou took a few steps back. I looked closely and saw that there were more than twenty altars neatly placed in the large yard. Each altar was placed on the offerings, litting the green incense, and in front of the altar, there was a small slut of three or five years old sitting.

They were obviously having a meal just now, but we were disturbed by the door we pushed open. They all stopped, staring at us with green eyes, staring straight at us with curiosity.

Chen Ou gasped and hurriedly bowed to the yard: "Children, you continue, disturb, disturb." He also saluted, returned, winked us and signaled us to leave quickly.

When Zhang Mengmeng retreated, she asked in a low voice: "Brother Chen, are you looking for the wrong place?"

In our impression, Xia Tian knows how to use magic, so naturally he can't raise a little spiritual baby, let alone these twenty. Those little spiritual baby has no hostility, which is similar to Chen Ou's. Let's not talk about whether we can deal with these little guys. Even if we can deal with them, their master will definitely not be afforded by us.

Unexpectedly, there are such experts in this market.

As soon as we returned, an old voice came from the yard and said, "Three friends, since they are here, let's sit in it."

Hearing this old voice, Chen Ou suspected that Xiao Lingying had lost her and was lost by Xia Tian, ​​and deliberately led us here. He immediately bowed to the door and said, "Senior, I was offended just now, but it was getting late, so we won't come in and say goodbye!"

Chen Ou was about to leave as he said that, after all, there are still many experts in this folk, and if he can't afford to offend, he can only hide.

But the old man inside said again: "Aren't you looking for Xia Tian?"

"No more searches, no more searches!"

Chen Ou waved his hand quickly, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said, "What's going on? Is there a backer this summer?"

Many old guys in Maoshan, Chen Ou often contacts them and knows their aura. Now looking at his appearance, he probably feels that the old man inside is very strong.

Seeing Chen Ou like this, he dared to say anything. He winked with Zhang Mengmeng. The two of them left Chen Ou and turned around and ran away. Anyway, we were not the ones who knocked on the door to disturb the old man.

Zhang Mengmeng and I ran out a few steps, and when they turned around, they saw that Chen Ou did not follow him, they laughed secretly, but after a few more steps, the smiles on Zhang Mengmeng and me gradually solidified.

Logically speaking, our speed was several meters in a second, half a minute, and it was hundreds of meters slowing down, so we had already left the alley. And the scenery around us was changing. As a result, when we turned around, we found that Chen Ou was still standing behind us, and the old house was also behind, with no distance at all. When we looked down, we found that Zhang Mengmeng and I seemed to be standing in place. When we looked carefully, my hair almost stood up. I took a step, and the soil and rocks under my feet shrank back a few steps. In this way, we were running, but the earth was retreating, which was even more scary than standing in place.

Zhang Mengmeng's face changed and she grabbed me: "Stop running, let's go back. We have a friendship with Xia Tian, ​​so he won't make things difficult for us!"

I remember that just an hour ago, he was cursing Xia Tian with a mouth full of mouth, but now it has become a friendship!

Of course, if it was really what happened before, Xia Tian wouldn’t have turned against us. What I was worried about was that Xia Tian and the people who gave me some look up to me, then when I entered, I would be like to fall into the trap.

I was still thinking, Zhang Mengmeng had already pulled me back, and Chen Ou lowered his voice and said, "Wait until later, don't talk nonsense, delay time as much as possible. Miss Bai should be back soon. If we don't see us, we should come here."

Chen Ou said, and walked inside with a stinging bullet. We hurriedly followed and entered the courtyard. The little ghosts in the yard stood up, scaring us so much that we shrank back and held our respective magic weapons in a war.

"Little guys, have a good meal, don't scare the guests!" The old voice sounded, and the little spirit babies sat back.

Only then did we put away the purple talisman and Taoist qi in our hands, and we started to walk around where the old voice came from.

The house is very large, with three in and three out in front and back. On the side is a circular arch. On the back is a garden with a rockery made of strange rocks. The water flows gurgling, the lotus leaves are floating. In the water below the lotus leaves, red carp swims, and it looks very leisurely and contented, not affected by the yin energy here.

In the middle of the rockery, there is a platform inlaid with rain flowers and stones. A red sandalwood table is placed on it, with an incense burner, and the blue smoke inside is emitting a faint natural fragrance.

Behind was a Grand Master Chair, a white-haired old man leaned leisurely on it, closed his eyes and slept. Xia Tian stood beside him, holding a small palm fan, gently fanning the wind to heat up the old man.

When Zhang Mengmeng saw the incense burner smoking, she hurriedly reminded us: "Be careful that the incense burner is poisonous, don't breathe!"

Chen Ou looked at him like an idiot. When he saw him holding his breath, his face turned red. He shook his head speechlessly and walked towards the old man and Xiatian.

We just passed by, and the old man closed his eyes and raised his hand gently: "Sit!"

As soon as we spoke, we did not see any movement in our hands. Three chairs appeared out of thin air in front of the empty rosewood table. This action scared us very much.

This is nothing but Xiaohong, it seems that she can’t do it!

Xia Tian saw us standing there and didn't dare to sit down, and looked at us with a smile and said, "My grandpa invited you to sit down, why don't you give me face!"

Chen Ou, we were sweating from the forehead, and we couldn't guess what the old man meant. We just said that he wanted to harm me. With his means, there seemed to be no need to ask us to sit and do it.

But if I want to say that it won't harm me, this turtle boy in Xia Tian just gave me the King of Hell. If it weren't for the turning point of life, I would probably be fighting with the big bull head below.

What’s important is whether this chair is true or not, will there be any problems when sitting down?

Chen Ou and Zhang Mengmeng both had this concern, so they didn’t dare to sit, but Xia Tian deliberately added that if we don’t sit, the problem will be a bit serious.

Zhang Mengmeng pushed me and signaled me to sit down. I hurriedly pushed Chen Ou and asked him to go, but it turned out that Chen Ou deliberately pretended to scratch his back, turned around and ran behind me, pushing me in front.

We pushed and pulled, and the old man seemed a little unhappy. His breathing became heavier, which scared us to stop quickly. I gritted my teeth and walked towards a chair. I touched it with my hands. There was some ice, but the traces on it could be felt at the tip of my fingers.

The problem now is that no matter what, I have to sit down, so I can only grit my teeth and sit down. As a result, the chair is real and nothing happened.

When Chen Ou and Zhang Mengmeng saw it, they hurriedly sat down with a smile.

"Drink tea!" Xia Tian swept the palm fan on the table, and there were three cups of steaming tea on the table.

The chair was real, and he didn't bother to poison it. I didn't hesitate anymore, picked up the tea and took a sip.

Tea is a good tea. Even people like me who have never drunk tea can feel it. They just have something in their hearts and don’t have time to taste it carefully.

As soon as we put down the teacup, the old man said slightly, "Did you scare you when we entered the door just now?"

"No!"

"No!"

"No!"

Chen Ou and the three of us spoke in unison, and the embarrassment on their faces was very similar. The old man closed his eyes and smiled slightly, "Those are all miserable children. In the past, the Xia family could have taken them around and traveled around and supported them by making some tricks of fooling people."

When I heard this, I hurriedly flattered, "The old man is joking. If this is a trick, then all the magic tricks in the world will be tricks."

"My friend is really good at joking. Skills are tricks, and there is no need to whitewash them." The old man sighed helplessly when he said this, and then said: "It's a pity that times have changed. Nowadays, people are watching TV and movies, but no one has watched these tricks."

The old man's words were beyond my expectations. I didn't expect that he would keep pace with the times at such an old age.

But it’s not surprising to think about it, after all, they are from the city.

But from the old man's words, I heard some secrets. This "elusive" trick seems to be related to those little spirit babies. However, every time we make tricks in summer, we don't see the little Yin spirit, and we can't even feel the breath.

But this should be their biggest secret. I was curious and didn't dare to ask.

The old man continued: "Times have changed, no one has seen tricks, but these little guys have to eat and drink. I am old and have no energy to travel around the world. I can only rely on summer to do something outside and live a barely life!"

I looked around speechlessly. Such a large house was so hard to make a living! This old man was really modest.

But if this is their ancestral home, it would not be possible to sell it. It would be a considerable expense to maintain such a large home, plus raise these small ghosts.

The old man is talking about this now, is he planning to excuse Xia Tian? If the old man really comes forward in person, it will be difficult for me to pursue it.

And the old man also had this meaning. He stopped here and closed his eyes and didn't know what he was thinking.

I looked at Xia Tian, ​​sighed in my heart, and said to myself: "Forget it, Mr. Xia's cultivation is probably not stronger than those old man in major sects. The matter in Kunlun Mountain has not yet made its way, so it is not suitable to establish a great enemy for Xiao Hong."

As long as you can ask who the person behind it is, the matter will end here.

I was about to speak, but the old man said quietly: "During the war, the Xia family fell and could not eat enough to keep their ancestral homes. These little guys could not support them. Just when the Xia family was planning to save these pitiful children, one of them helped me through the crisis, and the Xia family also owed a big favor!"

After hearing this, if I don’t understand, I’m really a fool.

I originally wanted to ask who that person was, but then I thought, the old man said he had owe a favor, so he naturally wouldn't say it out.

At this moment, he just wanted to resolve the conflict between me and Xia Tian. It can be seen that Xiaohong's existence has threatened him, but it is hard to explain, so he can only use this method.

The Xia family apologized in this way, not only not wanting to make enemies, but also showed that the person who wanted to harm me was probably not the Gongsun family we are thinking about now.

But this is just my guess, and I need to confirm it. After thinking about it, I dipped my fingers in a little tea and wrote two words on the table. I looked up at the old man.

The old man didn't even open his eyes and shook his head slightly.

My face changed suddenly, and I stood up and said, "Thank you for your advice! It's getting late today, so we won't disturb you much! In summer, you can give me a few friends."
To be continued...
