Chapter 178: Journey back home (3)(1/2)
After collecting Yun Xi's money, the store owner continued to look at the door. After confirming that no one was there, he moved a stool to sit next to Yun Xi and whispered:
"This matter has to start a month and a half ago."
"A month and a half ago, there was a man named Li Yong in the city. His father died."
"His father passed away due to illness. This is not a rare thing, but who would have thought that on the third day after his father's death, Li Yong suddenly heard a call while going up the mountain to cut firewood."
"The voice calling him was very familiar. He subconsciously turned his head and looked. Guess who he saw?"
Qingchan asked tentatively: "Is...is he his father?"
The shop owner slapped his thigh and said with emotion: "That's right! The person who called him was actually his dead father!"
Qingchan was startled by the fussy tone of the store, and immediately stood up and ran to Yun Xi's side, sat down next to her, stretched out her hand through Yun Xi's arm, and leaned against her tightly.
Even though she was already a warrior, she still felt scared when she heard such strange things.
The store owner looked at Qingchan's actions and looked at Yun Xi with questioning eyes. Yun Xi said: "It's okay, go on."
The store owner continued: "Li Yong was shocked when he saw his dead father. He quickly dropped his things and ran back to the town. He went to the government to report that he had hit a ghost."
"But the people in the government didn't believe it at all. How could there be a ghost in Tianling Continent in broad daylight? So the people in the government thought he was reporting a false case. Not only did they not help him, they beat him up and kicked him out of the government.
."
Xuanxuan said angrily: "The people in this government are so disgusting!"
The store owner quickly raised a finger to signal silence and said, "Girl, don't say such nonsense."
Xuanxuan curled her lips, but in order to continue listening, she did not speak again.
Seeing that Xuanxuan stopped talking, the store owner continued talking.
"After Li Yong was beaten up by the officials, he calmed down. After going home and thinking about it, he felt that he might have missed his father too much and was hallucinating. However, that night, when Li Yong was sleeping at home, he once again
I heard someone calling him!"
The store owner has a talent for telling stories, and the combination of his demeanor and tone creates a somewhat spooky atmosphere, which makes even Xuanxuan feel a little creepy.
"This time, Li Yong opened his eyes in the middle of the night..."
The store owner paused deliberately, and then his voice deepened: "When I saw his dead father, I stood by his bedside, looking down at him!"
"Ah!"
Qingchan screamed and moved her head directly into Yun Xi's arms. Her delicate body shivered like a newborn puppy.
Yun Xi hugged her with a smile, touched her head, and raised her chin slightly to signal the store owner not to stop.
Perhaps it was because seeing Qingchan's frightened appearance gave the store owner a sense of accomplishment. He still said in a gloomy tone: "It was dark at night, and Li Yong didn't see his father's whole face clearly, but from the figure,
Judging from the size, it is definitely his father! This time, Li Yong not only heard his father calling him, but also heard his father say other words."
"Anything else?"
Yun Xi became curious: "What are you talking about?"
The shopkeeper said: "It seems that he is forcing him to marry and have children. You probably don't know that Li Yong is now over forty and is still an old bachelor! His father's biggest wish before he left was to be able to hold him in his arms
Grandson."
"Li Yong experienced such an incident in the middle of the night and was so frightened that he fainted. The next morning, he couldn't bear it any longer. He called several companions and ran to the tomb in the back mountain to prepare to dig up his father's tomb.
Find out."
"Ha! Guess what happened in the end?"
The shopkeeper picked up the kettle on the table next to him and made a glass of water, then poured it into his mouth.
"His father's tomb... had been opened a long time ago, and there was no body inside at all! Now everyone finally knew that Li Yong was not lying, and they were all shocked."
"For several days in a row, Li Yong could see his father at various times. Over the next few days, everyone else became a little crazy. Until later, a Taoist priest came."
Speaking of the Taoist priest, the store owner trembled: "The Taoist priest claimed to be from the Xingyue Sect and could help Li Yong solve this problem, but in return, Li Yong must spend all his family wealth and contribute to the growth of the Xingyue Sect.
Share your own strength."
"Li Yong was about to die at that time, so he didn't care about the money, so he agreed without hesitation. So the Taoist priest gave Li Yong a paper stick, and the result was amazing! From that day on, Li Yong continued to
He was no longer harassed by his father’s ghost. When we went to the graveyard, we found that his father’s tomb had been filled in again. It seems that the body had also gone back!”
The store owner sighed: "Since then, the reputation of the Xingyue Sect has spread in Fang Yue City. This Xingyue Sect is a foreign sect, but because of this, the Xingyue Ancestral Temple was opened in Dafangshan Mountain in the city.
”
"Because of its reputation, many people in the city would go to the Xingyue Sect to offer incense. It is said that the statue of the leader there is very efficacious, and whatever you ask for will come to you. Then Li Yong later went to the Xingyue Ancestral Hall to ask for a marriage, and he didn't expect that he would actually get it.
He is done!"
"Tsk tsk! An old man in his forties actually married a young wife in her twenties! But he was so stunned! The Xingyue Ancestral Hall is very lively now, and there are endless pilgrims every day.
, it is said that many people have their wishes come true."
"But if it works, it will work, but anyone who dares to make arrangements to offend the Xingyue Sect will not end well."
The store owner looked a little sad when he said this: "A good brother of mine is like this. His wife suddenly got seriously ill a few days ago. After asking for help from the doctor, he went to the Xingyue Sect for help. Then the Xingyue Sect asked him to bring his wife there.
,The result..."
The shopkeeper clenched his fist and gritted his teeth and said: "A man from the Xingyue Sect brought his wife into the room and said she would be treated behind closed doors, but my brother stood outside the door and clearly heard... the sound of his wife being bullied!"
p>
Yun Xi slapped the table and looked cold: "This is happening!"
The shopkeeper smiled bitterly and looked gloomy: "Not only that, my brother was furious at the time, but how could he beat these Xingyue Cultists! So after his wife was sent out, the two of them went to the government to file a complaint, but... the Xingyue Cult insisted
They said this was their method of treatment, and his wife was indeed cured, so the government did not punish the Xingyue Sect, but instead gave him a beating for reporting the false case."
"And that night, my brother hanged himself and died, and his wife... also disappeared."
Xuanxuan was scared just now, but now she was very angry. She said angrily: "The government and the Xingyue Sect are obviously working together! Sister Yun, in my opinion, these illnesses and strange phenomena are probably caused by the Xingyue Sect!
”
"Girl! You can't say this! You can't say it!"
Seeing Xuanxuan's indignant look, the store owner quickly stopped her. There were so many people on the street, and if someone from the Xingyue Sect heard it, the consequences would be disastrous.
"Say? Why not let them say it?"
Strange voices came from outside the store, and two men walked in from outside the store.
They wore blue robes with a crescent moon embroidered on their chests, and above the crescent moon was a star.
When the store owner saw these two people, his face suddenly turned pale.
The thinner of the two men looked at Yun Xi and the others, his eyes brightening slightly.
Yun Xi and the others have become much more mediocre in appearance after being disguised. However, although their appearance has changed, their figure and temperament remain the same. In a small city like Fang Yuecheng, they can surpass them just by virtue of their figure and temperament.
Above many women.
There was a vague lustful light in the thin man's eyes, he looked at Xuanxuan and asked: "Did you scold our Xingyue Sect before?"
Xuanxuan stood up, put her hands on her hips and said, "I scolded you, what's wrong!"
"Tsk! He's still just a little pepper!" The thin man said coldly, "Girl, you can come with me to the ancestral hall to offer incense and apologize, and then do some purification and baptism, and you can still save your life. Otherwise, the leader will be punished by God.
Come on, you won’t survive tonight!”
Xuanxuan sneered, not afraid: "Then you should ask him to give me divine punishment now!"
The eyes of the two people suddenly darkened: "If you speak rudely, let us take care of you foreign girls on behalf of the leader today!"
When the store owner saw that they were about to take action, he quickly stepped forward and begged: "Don't do it! Don't do it here! They just don't understand the rules. There are a lot of them, please let them go!"
"Get out of my way!"
The thin man slapped the shopkeeper on the face and knocked him away. Then he gathered the spiritual power in his palm and slapped Xuanxuan's chest directly.
Xuanxuan felt sick for a while, and without hesitation, she used her spiritual power to meet him.
"Warrior?"
The two were surprised at first, and then sarcastically said: "It turns out that he is an Earth-level warrior. No wonder he dares to speak arrogant words. It's just a pity that the strength of the Earth-level is not enough in our eyes!"
Both of these two people are warriors in the early stage of heaven level.
The two Xingyue Sect disciples attacked from both sides, using the strong to defeat the weak and the weak at the same time.
It's just that they forgot for a moment that there were several companions beside this earth-level warrior.
Two figures jumped up from the wooden bench and rushed directly towards the two Xingyue Sect members. This time, Qingchan kept up with Hongling's pace and struck decisively and quickly. The spiritual power in his palms gathered and he struck directly.
He slapped the tall and thin man with his palm.
"There are two more heaven-level warriors?"
The two were shocked and reacted immediately, preparing to switch attacks. However, the moment they reacted, a black and white formation appeared in their sight.
Qingchan's eyes flashed slightly and she murmured silently.
"Xumi Mind Dharma·Gua Yin and Yang!"
