The ultimate master in the city

The long-haired girl is named Ge Jiaying, and the short-haired girl is named Ge Li. They are cousins. Yesterday morning, they went to an event in a neighboring city together, and it was already evening when they returned.

In order to save time, they took a shortcut along a small path on the north side of the mountain. It was drizzling at the time, and there were not many pedestrians on the road.

Halfway there, the car suddenly stalled and wouldn't start. Outside was a dark forest with shadowy trees and strange birds making noises, which was quite frightening.

Ge Jiaying got anxious. Her father ran a car repair shop, and she had seen a lot of cars since she was a child, so she knew a little about them. She got out of the car, took out her toolbox, and turned on her phone's flashlight to check and repair the car.

Ge Li got out of the car to accompany him, but the car couldn't be found to have any problems for a while. She got bored and looked around. She noticed a house not far away with the lights on.

Out of curiosity, she greeted Ge Jiaying and said she was going to take a look.

Ge Jiaying was focused on repairing the car and wasn't afraid to go alone, so she said, "Go ahead."

Ge Li went to the house, and Ge Jiaying checked for a while but still couldn't find anything wrong with the car. Meanwhile, the rain was getting heavier and heavier, and they were all soaked.

At this moment, Ge Li stood at the door of the room and greeted her, saying that if it couldn't be fixed, she could come in and take shelter from the rain, as the two older sisters were very kind.

Ge Jiaying found it strange at the time. Where did these two older sisters come from in this desolate wilderness? She put down her toolbox, locked her car, ran to the front of the house, and followed Ge Li into the house.

The house was very clean, and there were two women sitting inside. They were both in their thirties, very pretty, and very polite. When they saw that she was wet from the rain, they quickly handed her a towel to dry her hair and gave her some fruit to eat.

After washing up, Ge Jiaying and her sister sat down to chat with the two women. The women claimed to be from Donghai City and said that they had built a house here because they longed for a life in the mountains where no one would disturb them, and they would come to stay every few days.

The Ge sisters also shared their situations one by one, and the four of them became happier and happier as they chatted.

After a while, one of the women said, "It's raining so hard, and we're just killing time anyway, let's play some cards."

They were playing Dou Dizhu (a popular Chinese card game), with one person as the landlord and three others shouting and arguing at each other. It seemed quite interesting.

But as they fought, Ge Jiaying felt the temperature in the room suddenly drop, a chilly air rushed over her, and she felt a little dizzy.

She forced herself to look at Ge Li, only to find her eyes narrowed and her body swaying. Then she looked at the two women and felt a chill of fear, for their faces were green and they were inexplicably grinning sinisterly.

After that, Ge Jiaying knew nothing more.

"When I woke up this morning, my cousin and I were lying in the grass. There were no houses nearby." Ge Jiaying's face was still a little pale, and she leaned awkwardly against the middle-aged man. "Then we got in the car, and it started again. We met you on the way. Not long after we got back, my cousin..."

At this point, she noticed that the two masters opposite her looked unwell and quickly asked, "W-what's wrong?"

Monk Yuanzhi frowned and asked, "Two women?"

Ge Jiaying nodded: "Yes!"

"Brother, this..." Monk Yuanzhi looked at Zhou Fengchen.

Zhou Fengchen looked at the people around him, then made a hand seal to sense them, and shook his head. "One."

"This isn't right!" Monk Yuanzhi whispered, "Two ghosts, it's impossible for one to be left behind..."

Zhou Fengchen hesitated for a moment, then suddenly grabbed Ge Jiaying's hand: "Don't move!"

Ge Jiaying blushed and tried to hide, but she became obedient after hearing these words.

Zhou Fengchen gently rubbed Ge Jiaying's palms and wrists, then released her and asked, "Do you have any protective items on you?"

"A protective charm?" Ge Jiaying thought for a moment, then took out a jade Buddha pendant from around her neck. "This is a blessed pendant my father got from a temple in Jiuhua Mountain. Does it count?"

"Okay! Just wait a moment." Zhou Fengchen nodded and gave Monk Yuanzhi a wink.

After the two went out, Monk Yuanzhi said, "Given the sneaky nature of ghosts, it's impossible for one to leave and leave one behind. The other ghost must have come too, but we don't know where it's hiding."

"That's right!" Zhou Fengchen said, walking towards the red sedan. He searched inside, then shook his head. "No! I can only sense one around this house. What should we do?"

"Are you sure there's only one in the house?" Monk Yuanzhi chuckled upon hearing this. "That's great! One is easy to deal with. As for where the other one went, what does that have to do with us?"

Zhou Fengchen was taken aback. "That makes some sense."

The two returned to the house, where Ge Li's father, a middle-aged man, greeted them, saying with a frightened expression, "I just remembered something. Someone died seven or eight years ago at the place where Xiao Ying and Xiao Li had their accident!"

Monk Yuanzhi asked, "How did they die? Who died?"

Ge Li's father said, "Two women, in their thirties, were driving by in a sedan. They were going too fast and crashed into a big tree. The car was completely flattened, and both of them died. Their brains were spilling out. I was passing by and even took a look. Is this... any useful clue?"

"It's useful, but not very useful." Zhou Fengchen coughed, thinking to himself, "Only seven or eight years of cultivation? That makes things even easier."

After a while, they bought all the things they had asked for. When Zhou Fengchen and Monk Yuanzhi saw the food, their eyes lit up. They stood up and said in a serious but nonsensical tone, "We should first offer sacrifices to the household guardian spirits, the earth god, the patrolling gods, and the underworld officials. Otherwise, they will be unhappy if we perform rituals arbitrarily."

Ge Li's father asked nervously, "With so many people... is there not enough food? Won't it be a bit meager?"

"That's enough! That's enough!"

Zhou Fengchen and his companion picked up their food and ran to a corner: "This humble monk respectfully greets the guardian spirit!"

"This humble Taoist priest pays homage to the Earth God!"

"Hey! Brother Patrol God, you're here too?"

"Hey! Isn't this Brother Yinshi? You look great lately!"

ho-

Inside the room, a group of people looked around nervously, their hearts pounding with fear.

But after a while, the meaning of what Zhou Fengchen and the other person said changed:

"You fucking leave me some!"

"What's going on? I got this piece of meat first."

"Here you go, look at you, so pathetic. This half-bowl of chicken is mine."

"Leave me some chicken broth to mix with my rice!"

Inside the room, a group of people looked around in bewilderment as they listened.

……

After a satisfying meal, the two men, burping contentedly, began their work.

Zhou Fengchen first drew talismans, taking more than an hour to finish fifty talismans. Then he took out thirty talismans and stuffed them into his pocket, and handed the other twenty to the bewildered Ge family members next to him. "Take these and stick them on the doors, windows and walls around the house to prevent the ghost from running away."

The Ge family members quickly complied with their instructions.

Zhou Fengchen then led his men up to the second floor. On the wall not far from Ge Li's room, he had a square mirror nailed up and locust branches inserted into the gaps around the mirror.

Three incense sticks were lit in a landscape pot under the mirror, and a pile of women's cosmetics was placed behind the incense.

Ge Li's father, Ge Jiaying, and a group of people were all confused. Monk Yuanzhi was also a little confused and asked in a low voice, "Brother, what do you mean by this?"

"Mirrors reflect images, locust trees are associated with yin, and incense and candles soothe the soul, therefore..."

Zhou Fengchen smiled, "Let me show you a ghost putting on makeup in the middle of the night."

I like the novel "The Strongest Master in the City".
