Can you win people and money just by talking?
Has this monster been in human territory for a long time? It's quite greedy.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but smile and shook his head.
"I thank you for your reminder, Taoist priest, but I don't need this talisman anymore, so I don't want to waste your money."
Zhou Kao said with a smile.
Although what the Taoist priest said was quite touching, a talisman can protect you for a lifetime.
Don’t say it’s fake. Even if it’s true, Zhou Kao can’t use it. He himself is invincible to gods and ghosts, and he kills evil spirits and scare away evil spirits.
He just wanted to make the eagle angry and take action.
When Zuoshandiao saw that the scholar had revealed his intentions, his face turned pale, but he looked at the middle-aged wealthy man next to him calmly.
"Sir, if you don't want it, I can use it."
Boss Qian played the role of a qualified supporting actor, continuing to stir Zuoshan Diao's heartstrings. He hurriedly said, "Master, your talisman is really too expensive. Can you make it cheaper?"
Give him hope, then reject him, hehe.
Zuoshandiao laughed and said, "I give you a talisman based on my mood and fate. But today you and I are destined to be together, and since you are short of money, I will give you a cheaper price."
After a moment's hesitation, he said, "I'll take one hundred taels of silver from you."
One hundred taels?
Hearing the price, Boss Qian immediately put on an awkward expression and said, "I can't afford this talisman from the Taoist priest. I only have a dozen or so taels of silver on me."
"Well, there's nothing I can do about it. This is already my lowest price. It can't be any lower, otherwise I'll have to pay for it.
But you are short of money, and this young man may have some money. I wonder if he would be willing to help the village."
Zuoshandiao's gaze shifted to Zhou Kao again.
"Brother, we don't know whether this talisman is real or fake. If I spend a hundred taels of silver to buy a fake one, wouldn't that be a waste of money?"
Zhou Kao kindly reminded him, "If this talisman is real, I will naturally not be stingy and lend you a hundred taels of silver."
After being reminded by Zhou Kaoyi, Boss Qian finally woke up.
Act as if you have suddenly realized something.
Yes, what if the Taoist talisman I bought with one hundred taels of silver turns out to be fake? Wouldn't that mean I'd lost one hundred taels of silver in vain?
Suddenly, Boss Qian looked at Zuoshandiao with some suspicion.
Zuoshan Diao was a little angry at this moment and put away the talisman. "You two scholars are talking nonsense and slandering me as a liar.
I won't care about you anymore, just wish you good luck. If a ghost comes to your door at night, don't blame me for not warning you."
After saying that, he flicked his sleeves heavily and left.
It became.
Zhou Kao and Boss Qian looked at each other and smiled.
Just because this mountain eagle is so moody, no matter what he practices, he has not mastered it.
Yueying said that the most taboo thing for people who practice cultivation is anger. When anger arises, the soul is like being plunged into boiling oil, which may hurt the soul even if it does not hurt the body. How can one make progress in cultivation?
Easier to deal with.
At this time, the vulture returned to his damp cave angrily.
In the dark, rows of cages made of randomly tied wood were placed in a staggered manner, with intermittent ** sounds coming from inside.
However, he found that there was a small Taoist temple in the cave of the bald Taoist priest. The deity enshrined in the temple was not the Three Pure Ones, nor the Four Gods, but a statue of a strange young man wearing a scarlet robe and an official hat.
"These two people have no respect for ghosts and gods, and they even mocked me for selling fake talismans. Today, I will show them what a black hand is. Bring you here and deal with you properly."
After cursing a few times, the bald man went into a side room of the Taoist temple.
The room was simply decorated, with only a cushion and an altar, but incense was constantly burning inside, and the smell of incense was everywhere.
The bald Taoist took a piece of yellow paper, cut it into a little man with scissors, then painted it with a brush and added some red paint. Soon, a ghost with a green face and fangs appeared.
He made two paper figures in total, then cast a spell and waved his hand.
The two paper figures' eyes became lively.
Then two evil spirits appeared.
Immediately, the two evil ghosts rose up without wind, floated out through the crack in the door, and soon disappeared into the city.
After Wang Cong returned to the inn, he was very tired. After changing into wet clothes, he lay down on the bed and fell asleep.
But while sleeping, Wang Cong found that the jade pendant on his chest became hot and he gradually woke up.
But I felt my body getting heavier and heavier, as if I was being pressed down by a stone and couldn't move at all.
Not only was he unable to move, but even his eyelids felt extremely heavy and difficult to open. But the strange thing was that his consciousness was exceptionally clear and not at all confused.
"What's going on? Why can't I move?"
Wang Cong was shocked and struggled hurriedly, but his body was still out of control. Could this be the legendary sleep paralysis?
And at this moment he heard two whispering voices in his ears.
"This scholar smells so good! I really want to eat this scholar!!"
"Let's eat this scholar tonight. His tender skin and flesh must be delicious. It's a shame to offer rotten meat to the general and human blood to the king."
"No, no, this is the two-legged sheep that the general wants. If we eat it, won't the general eat us too?" said another voice.
"Hey, he deserves bad luck today. Let's not eat him, but just taste him. Well, let's do it now. You taste his feet, and I'll taste his head, half for each of us. Hurry and taste it. After tasting it, we'll move him to that female demon, hey."
"Yeah, yeah. I don't know what the general likes about that seductress. She always insists on us taking all the captured people to her place to train them, so that she can do what the general wants. That seductress hasn't yielded to the general even after so many attempts. If you ask me, I'm just giving that girl a face. Sha, this person is really fragrant, hehe."
"Yes, yes, it smells so good~~~"
The two voices said this, and Wang Cong was so frightened that he trembled all over, his face turned pale, and he almost fainted.
What was even more terrifying was that he felt someone licking his feet with a long tongue, and another person licking his cheeks with his tongue.
Wang Cong was sweating all over at this moment. Although the two little ghosts said they were just trying to taste him, he felt that he was about to be eaten by the two evil ghosts.
But at this moment, for some reason, the jade pendant on his chest became hotter and hotter, and his body regained consciousness.
Wang Cong suddenly opened his eyes and saw two evil ghosts with green faces and fangs sitting on him, licking his face and feet with tongues more than a foot long.
"Ah~! A ghost!"
Wang Cong let out an earth-shattering scream and jumped up from the bed. He didn't know where he got the strength from, but he actually broke open the door of the inn and crawled towards the county government office.
"Oh? There really is a ghost!!! How dare you lick me??"
boom!
boom!
boom!
With the help of Yu Niang, Zhou Kao dealt with the two evil ghosts severely.
"Listen up, both of you. Take me to find your general, that bald old man."
"What, beg for mercy?"
"Don't worry, take your Grandpa Zhou with me. I'll take care of the two of you."
"You two better behave yourself, or else, Grandpa Zhou will behead you right here, and you won't even be able to become ghosts!!"
Zhou Kao used coaxing, deception, threats and inducements to get the two evil ghosts to take him to the female demon.
As for why he didn't go directly to the mountain eagle's lair, it was naturally not because Zhou Kao wanted to see what the female fairy looked like that could bewitch the mountain eagle like that.
Absolutely not.
Instead, these two evil ghosts said that they had moved people to the female fairy first and used people to threaten the female fairy.
In addition, the two evil ghosts said that even gods and demons would not dare to take Zhou Kao to the lair of the mountain eagle.
They all said that place was very scary, but even if Zhou Kao beat them to death, they would not go there.
Yes, it is like that.
Zhou Kao still carried his sword on his waist, a backpack on his back, and took Yu Niang with him.
There was no way. As soon as Yu Niang heard that there was a female demon, she always muttered in Zhou Kao's ear with a sad and resentful tone.
She always talks about her husband, probably because he is fed up with her or something.
She is just a little Lin Daiyu.
The two evil ghosts took Zhou Kao to a place near a pond in the east of the county town. The journey was about ten to twenty miles. After passing two pavilions, they saw a bridge with a river under it. The left side led to the river and the right side led to mountains.
When they reached the bridge, the two evil spirits dared not go any further. They pointed to a thick fog ahead and said to Zhou Kao with a bitter face and hanging tongues: "Sir, ahead is that place. We two dare not go any further. If..."
"Lead the way."
Zhou Kao looked at the class leader and urged.
"Mr. Zhou, Mr. Zhou... I, I really don't dare to go any further. It's easy to enter this fog, but if I run into my general, I will..."
"Well, just tell me about the terrain here, what rivers and mountains there were originally, what villages and temples there were."
"Don't you have to go with me?"
"Of course, there's no need to go together."
"Well, I buried it nearby. I know the area very well..."
After listening to the two evil ghosts talking to each other for a long time, Zhou Kao had an idea in his mind. It turned out that the mountain eagle had found such a place to hide.
That's reassuring.
It must not be a big monster.
You can’t raise a real dragon by diving.
This mountain eagle does not dare to occupy any famous mountains or rivers.
It only dares to cause trouble in this pond and river. It has to rely on two little ghosts to catch people for its survival. Maybe it is not as good as the big blackfish.
Moreover, although Zhou Kao was a mortal and could not see through the monstrous evil spirit, he could see the living people in Bishui County.
Although the county magistrate felt very anxious because so many people were missing these days.
In fact, apart from the families of the missing persons and the county magistrate who was concerned about the matter,
The people generally lived and worked in peace and there were no major disturbances.
With confidence, these two evil spirits have no value.
"You two can go now!! But, there's one last mission before you go!!"
Zhou Kao said to the two evil ghosts.
The evil spirits who wanted to escape quickly knelt down and prostrated themselves before Zhou Kao.
"All at your command, sir."
"Well, okay, let me ask you two, have you ever eaten a human?"
Zhou Kao drew his sword and spoke nonchalantly to the two evil spirits.
The two evil ghosts immediately kowtowed repeatedly and said, "Sir, please spare our lives. We really have no choice. It was all forced by the general!!!"
"You don't tell"
This knife is really easy to use. Just swish it a few times.
Even ghosts can be chopped into smoke.
"..."
Carrying the box on his back and the sword in his hand, Zhou Kao strode on his way. On the way, Zhou Kao asked Yu Niang, "I didn't expect that dealing with this bald monster would take me a while. Please don't blame me, Yu Niang."
"My dear, what are you talking about? I am so happy to see your chivalrous heart."
Hehe, I wish I could stay with you for a while longer! Ah, you are still thinking about me, you are really good to me.
"Haha, when you get to the East China Sea, treat me to a seafood meal."
puff.
