……

Some people say you don't fool me!
Cai Erye agreed to help Pang Gouzi kill someone for the sake of a bird, why don't I believe it?

Isn't it a fool to drop the bowl after eating enough?

It's my fault that I didn't go into detail about it, Cai Erye is well-known in the Liyuan circle for his love of birds.He knows the habits and temperament of birds very well. He closes his eyes and folds his feathers, and raises his head. The dying bird, as soon as he fiddles with it, becomes bright and lively.Some people say that he must have been a bird in his previous life, because he can always be seen talking to a yellow-necked myna.

Cai Erye also said with a smile: "Two months, I can tell it to say allegro!"

He is such a master who loves birds like crazy.

In order to get a love bird, let alone kill a few people, if you tell him not to eat or drink, he will starve to death, he is willing!

of course!

He'll also feed the bird well before starving to death!
Seeing Pang Gouzi off, Second Master Cai went back to the house and walked to the tea table, whistled, and teased the bird a few times with his fingers. At this moment, his eyes caught the piece of paper left by Pang Gouzi, and he looked at it again. Look, then knead it into a ball of paper, turn around and walk to the table of the Eight Immortals, and throw it into the small incense burner...

Then I went to the back room and changed into a wide and fat gown, rolled up the white cuffs, shook the collar, went to the Eight Immortals table and opened the portrait of "Lao Langshen", and pulled out a "old man" wrapped in red cloth from behind. birdcage'!
He lifted a corner of the red cloth, and suddenly revealed a gloomy cold light, which shot straight out, which was extremely dazzling.

Blood drops!

What was exposed was not only the cold light of Yin Tie, but also a strong smell of blood!

Click!

Cai Erye took out a sheet of black gauze material under the table, pulled it down a few feet, wrapped it around the red cloth, and added a black cover to the blood drops, then lifted it up vigorously, his eyebrows furrowed.It seems that this drop of blood is not light!

Cai Erye carried the blood drop, walked out the door, walked to a non-closing teahouse near Suanshikou, sat down by the window, put the blood drop on the chair beside him, and asked the waiter I ordered a pot of strong tea to refresh myself, ordered a few more pastries, pressed my left hand on the blood drop, and glanced out of the window from time to time...

Within half a pot of tea, three people walked quickly on the street, Erye Cai was startled, he hurriedly turned his lower body to the outside of the window, and looked at these three people with his head!

Two men and one woman!
Walking in the front was a monk who was less than four feet tall, followed by a middle-aged man in a gray cloth shirt and a pair of sunglasses, and at the end was a woman in a floral shirt.

These three people are: Ma Kuiyuan, the third monk and Xiao Taohong.

"Tsk!"

Cai Erye sucked his teeth on the teahouse, shook his head and sighed: "No..."

At this time, Xiao Taohong caught up a few steps and asked Ma Kuiyuan, "Master, where are we going?"

Ma Kuiyuan bared his teeth and said with a smile: "Let's go to Shalan Village, Hebei first. There is the Baojiatang of my disciple 'Uncle Huang'. Let's go there to stabilize our feet first, and then make plans!"

"Oh!"

Xiao Taohong nodded with a smile, but did not initiate a conversation.

Before parting just now, Ma Kuiyuan handed Bai Shibao a triangular talisman bag, and asked Bai Shibao to stuff the talisman bag into the mouth of the corpse in the abandoned house on the outskirts of the city.

The corpse contains the seven souls of Xiao Taohong's elder brother 'Huoli Jinhuamao'. When the talisman bag is stuffed into the mouth, the seven souls will be sucked into the talisman bag to "lock the soul" to prevent the seven souls from dissipating. !

Because they were in a hurry to get out of the city, they didn't have time to get souls from the abandoned house, so they had to ask Bai Shibao, because they made an appointment with all the brothers to meet up somewhere!And this bag contains the talisman bag of the 'Huo Li Jin Hua Mao' seven souls, Ma Kuiyuan will ask his disciples to retrieve it in the future, and then hand it over to Xiao Taohong...

Although Xiao Taohong is a cat soul borrowed corpse, she is still a woman of flesh and blood now!
As a woman, marry a man, marry a man, dress and eat.

Xiao Taohong is the number one brand in Changlefang, she doesn't have to worry about food and clothing, she is already content, just thinking about the life of being bullied by Bian Kui in the past makes her cry easily.Now worshiping under the hands of Ma Kuiyuan, the 'Exorcist Dragon Clan', it seems that the shackles have been removed, and the joy is naturally indescribable!

At this moment, the third monk turned his head to Ma Kuiyuan and asked, "Don't you realize that the boy surnamed Bai has some 'skills'?"

Ma Kuiyuan replied: "Just looking at the Taoism he performed, I can't guess the source, but he claims to be a 'shadow walker', which makes me a little curious!"

"You mean 'spoof'?"

"That's right! You should know that I, the 'Exorcist Dragon Clan', is known as the 'Protecting the Family'! Among them, the name of 'Changing the Horse' is 'Calling the Spirit from the Yin'. If someone comes to the entrance of the hall to ask the immortal to come out, my disciple's soul will come out." Awkward, let the souls of the dead come to see you!... And that kid’s journey to Yin is the same way as passing Yin, I wonder if he has some distant relatives with our "Exorcist Dragon Clan"?"

The third monk said: "You may be of the same blood!"

Ma Kuiyuan said to himself: "Impossible! Our 'Exorcist Dragon Clan' has a 'Fate Curse' on us, and secret techniques cannot be passed on to people with other surnames. They have always been handed down from generation to generation. It is impossible for people with other surnames to know it!  … ...However, if we search for the root and seek the source, and dig up the patriarch, I'm afraid there will be problems..."

"Could it be that your patriarch passed on the secret technique to the other surnames?"

Ma Kuiyuan came back to his senses, shook his head to the third monk and said: "It is not passed down to the foreign surname, but this secret technique that our Ma family inherited from the foreign surname!"

Xiao Taohong listened in amazement, but dared not interrupt to talk about the Patriarch.

I only heard the third monk say: "Is your patriarch having the same surname as that kid's 'Bai'?"

"That's not true! Our patriarch's 'Erdong is the surname', but the word 'Chen', Taoist name: King Yin Zun! Back then, the ancestors of my Ma family saved his life by accident, and later learned that he was a master of Taoism." A man, the ancestors worshiped him as a teacher, and thus passed on the secret art of exorcising demons, which can subdue demons and control spirits, pass through the yin and walk horses, protect the family and open the house..."

The third monk said: "Could it be that your ancestor master had another apprentice before accepting your ancestors from the Ma family?"

Ma Kuiyuan thought for a while, and said, "Hmm! It also makes sense...but there is another possibility!"

"what?"

"The patriarch had brothers from the same sect, and his brothers opened the Taoist sect independently, so they separated the family and set up a separate household..."

The three monks nodded after listening.

During the conversation, the three of them had already reached the gate of the city.

Look ahead!
There are more than a dozen guards in front of the city gate, with guns on their backs, patrolling in line, looking orderly, and a few officials in the whistle room next to them are shirtless drinking and playing cards.

"It seems that they don't know that there is chaos in the city and the prison has been robbed!"

Ma Kuiyuan winked at the third monk and Xiao Taohong, then bared his teeth and said with a grin: "Go! Let's ask them for a 'way out'!" After finishing speaking, he straightened his chest and walked towards the city gate...

The city gates of BJ are divided into nine gates in the inner city, seven gates in the outer city, and four gates in the imperial city.There is a saying of 'inner nine outer seven imperial cities and four'. The outer city is connected by urn walls and is a brick fortress-like structure. The city platform is 12 meters high. There are archery towers cast on the southeast and west sides, and soldiers carry guns on it. Patrol.

Ma Kuiyuan and the others don't have the skills to fly swallows, so it's a bit difficult to fly out.

"Oops! Seeing what happened, I just chatted a few more words, came out late, and the city gate is closed..." Ma Kuiyuan walked to the whistle room, took off his sunglasses, and bowed his hands to the soldiers in the room. He cried bitterly: "Can the officials give me some convenience? Open a gap and let us go out?"

One of the fat men stopped playing cards, straightened the hat on his head, and said, "When is this? It's almost dawn. You say it's late, it's better to say it's early! Let's go out after dawn." !"

Ma Kuiyuan cried bitterly: "My lord! Hurry up, there is still a mother waiting at home!"

The fat man waved his hand and said, "I don't care about this! The higher-ups have issued a message to let you go according to the time. If you are in a hurry, go to Chongwenmen's 'Ghost Road'. There are no tax cards and gatekeepers there..."

This Chongwenmen is commonly known as 'Hademen', where Cai Erye is living.

It's not that the gate city is not guarded by officers and soldiers, but there is a small path that can go around the city. This path is rugged and difficult, and you have to pass a gloomy cemetery on the way, commonly known as: 'Ghost Road'!
Of course, this 'ghost way' is not really ghost!

Because traders have to pay taxes if they want to enter the city gate, in order to avoid paying high taxes, many traders took risks and walked the "ghost way" together at night. goods, looting money.So small traders call Chongwenmen: "Ghost Gate", and here they call "Ghost Road"!Wherever you go, you will die!
Ma Kuiyuan was taken aback, and thought to himself: After walking to the gate of the city, and then going back, wouldn't it be a big circle?

Not to mention wasting time, the danger of going back is no less dangerous than throwing yourself into a trap!

At this time, Xiao Taohong touched a few stones on the ground, rubbed them on her hands, and they turned into oceans, she stepped forward and said to the military leaders: "These oceans are used by the officials to buy wine. Drink, I hope the official can sell favors..." After finishing speaking, he handed over a few dollars.

"Good talk good talk!"

After the fat man took Dayang, he touched Xiao Taohong's smooth back of his hand, his face flushed as if he had drunk strong alcohol, and he squinted drunkenly and swept Xiao Taohong's body.

Xiao Taohong said shyly: "Master, you released us, I will remember your great kindness in my heart! I will definitely repay you in the future..."

"repay?"

The fat man chuckled, his eyebrows flew up, and said, "How are you going to repay me?"

Xiao Taohong said, "How about 100 taels of silver as a reward?"

"Ten taels?"

The other officers and soldiers stared wide-eyed after hearing this, 100 taels is not a small number!

"How many hours did she spend 100 taels to buy?"

"Yes! If we wait a little longer, it will be dawn in a few hours. If we leave at that time, wouldn't we save 100 taels?"

"Could it be..."

Fat officers and soldiers are not stupid, and understand that there is something greasy in it.

Xiao Taohong was stunned for a moment, knowing that she had said something wrong, she hurriedly pretended to cry sadly: "My mother is sick in bed, my brother and I came to the capital to fetch medicine for my mother, and asked the mage of Tiancheng Temple to pray for my mother!  … If it's too late, I'm afraid my mother will..." As she spoke, Xiao Taohong started to cry 'woooooooo'!

Tears swirl in the eyes, and the eye sockets are also red.

The fat man touched Xiao Taohong's hand and said, "It is said that a moment of Spring Festival is worth a thousand gold. I think you saved the 100 taels of silver. I will let your brother and the mage go back first. How about you stay with me?"

After the third monk watched from the sidelines, he was so angry that he touched the sharp knife at his waist with his hand!

Snapped!
Ma Kuiyuan grabbed his wrist, shook his head and said, "Don't panic! Look behind you..."
