Dian Hua got off the carriage and looked at the hillside covered with low trees, leaving only a small path for people to go up and down the mountain. The mountain road was covered with fallen leaves and dust, obviously it was deserted, and few people came here to walk around.

Dianhua looked at the surrounding streets and houses. The streets were very spacious, but most of the houses next to them were old. Only vaguely could the intention and scale of the construction. Now these large mansions have been transformed beyond recognition, divided into several separate courtyards and rented to dock workers, becoming a typical civilian area in the north of the city. Apart from an additional Taoist temple, there is no difference from other places in the north of the city.

Dian Hua was planning to go up the mountain along the mountain road. An old man who set up a stall to sell braised noodles kindly reminded him: "This Taoist priest, the Taoist temple over there has been closed, and there are no Taoist priests on it. And it is not safe above, so it is best not to go up the mountain."

Dian Hua was stunned for a moment, smiled and turned around and walked to the old man's stall and sat down, "I just didn't eat lunch well, so I'll try a bowl of braised noodles."

Qinghe immediately stepped forward to wipe the table and chairs for Dianhua. Dianhua waved his hand and pointed to the Taoist robe. Qinghe suddenly realized and retreated.

"Okay, Taoist priest, sit slowly, it's all right away." The old man's hand didn't stop, and he was talking while lowering.

"I don't know what the old man is called?"

"My surname is Cheng, and the Taoist priest just calls me Old Man Cheng."

Dian Hua and Mr. Cheng started the mode of chatting about homework.

"Mr. Cheng, you have been here for many years, have you?"

"Yes, since my grandfather, our family has lived here and started selling braised noodles here."

"I have lived here for decades! Is this street like this when you came here?"

"You ask when will this place be transformed into what it is now? This old man really doesn't know. Anyway, when the old man's family moved here, the place was already like this."

"What about the Taoist temple? What about the Taoist priests in the Taoist temple?"

"Tao Temple, when I was a child, it was quite popular, and there were still a few Taoist priests living in it. Later, there were fewer and fewer Taoist priests. A few years ago, there were only two Taoist priests left, one old and one young. About half a year ago, the little Taoist priest left the Taoist priest shortly after the death of the old Taoist priest. Now there are no Taoist priests in the Taoist priests."

When it comes to the rise and fall of Taoist temples, Old Man Cheng also sighed.

"You just said that going up the mountain is not safe? Why do you say that?"

Old Man Cheng prepared the noodles and brought them up. Now that the meal was over, there were not many guests. Old Man Cheng simply sat opposite Dian Hua, looked around, and saw that no one was paying attention to it, then whispered: "It is said that the Taoist temple is haunted!"

"Oh? Who said it? Someone saw it?"

"Who said it? People who spend the night in Taoist temple say so! Taoist priest, what I told is the truth! If you don't believe it, go around to inquire. It is definitely true. Old Man Cheng never lies."

Everyone who spends the night in Taoist temple says this?

"No one died, right?"

Old Man Cheng thought for a while and replied, "That's not the case, but it's inevitable to get sick. Anyway, that place is very evil. Taoist priest, it's better not to go there!"

Haven't died? It's much better than the sneaky one in Qi Mansion.

As far as Dian Hua knows, the sneaky man in Qi's mansion had killed several servants who took care of Mr. Qi before Dian Hua came to the door.

The target is clearly Mr. Qi, but nothing happened to Mr. Qi. I can hold on for a few days until the original owner arrives. Now, when I think about it carefully, Mr. Qi is not simple!

Dianhua took a bite of noodles and it was unexpectedly delicious. After eating the braised noodles for several big bites, he gave Old Man Cheng a thumbs up and said, "Brother Cheng's noodles are really good!"

The food with Qi Mansion is naturally inferior, but it also has a taste that Qi Mansion does not have. It is very delicious and unforgettable!

"Haha...that's right, our braised soup has been boiled for nearly a hundred years. It's a real century-old soup. The braised food is definitely the purest, haha..." When talking about Old Man Cheng's pride, Old Man Cheng laughed.

Seeing that he had no scheming, the simple and honest old man Cheng was relieved by Dian Hua's mentality.

As expected, as the article "Caigen Tan" says, "Clear the heart and clear the vulgarity, and has elegant taste": "It is better to talk to the city than to be a friend of the mountain than to visit the red man, it is better to be a white house than to listen to the streets and alleys than to hear the woodcutter's songs and the pastoral chants. It is better to talk about the ancients' good words and deeds than to talk about the misconduct of today's people."

Compared with the scheming Mr. Qi in the Qi Mansion, Dianhua prefers the simple and refreshing old man Cheng; compared with the strict Qi Mansion, Dianhua prefers the old street without rules; compared with the many servants in the Qi Mansion, Dianhua prefers the old neighbors with human touch on this street.

Dian Hua stood up and smiled and said, "Thank you, Mr. Cheng, for your reminder, this Taoist temple has been transferred to my name, and it is my place to me for me to recuperate. I really have to stay there."

Dianhua planned to pay, but Qinghe, who was very eye-catching, had already stepped forward to pay for the meal, which made Dianhua speechless, but she didn't say anything, just thinking that she would definitely invite her back in the future.

Old Man Cheng took the money from Qinghe. Seeing that the young Taoist priest was served by a maid, he was very pompous and kind-hearted, he reminded again with kindness: "This Taoist sacred is not clean, it is haunted inside. Although he has never died, it is not good to be sick for a few days. Why should Taoist priest suffer this unjust crime?"

Dian Hua replied gratefully: "Thank you, my father-in-law, I don't have the ability to say goodbye, but this ability to catch ghosts and exorcises is first-class."

Looking at Old Man Cheng's unbelieving expression, Dian Hua thought about it and had to take the matter of Qi Mansion to kuan Old Man Cheng's heart: "Does Mr. Cheng know that there was a lot of controversy some time ago. The Qi Mansion posted a reward of 100 taels of silver in the public notice board to recruit capable people and strangers to catch ghosts and exorcises? The day before yesterday, I entered the Qi Mansion, except for the sneaky one that night. I left Qi Mansion today. Master Qi heard that I had no place to stay, and also knew that I was good at catching ghosts and exorcising evil spirits. Thinking that it was not a matter of idleness, I gave it to me specifically for me to think it was a place to me to me as a place to recuperate.”

"Ah? There is still this matter? The Taoist priest has this ability?" Old Man Cheng looked at the young Taoist priest in front of him in surprise, and his tone was still a little unbelievable.

In ancient times, people always said this, saying "I have no hair on my lips and can't do things in a solid manner". When people look young, they don't believe that the other party has real skills.

There is also "seeing is true, hearing is false". If you don't see it with your own eyes, you just hear it, and you will naturally not believe it easily in your heart.

However, it was obvious that Dian Hua had already said this, and Old Man Cheng had done what he should do. Whether he believed it or not, whether Dian Hua had the real ability to catch ghosts or not, Old Man Cheng did not make any reminders again, and watched Dian Hua take a maid in green to the mountain road.

Old Man Cheng walked to the carriage and saw the family emblem on the carriage: "It's really the carriage of the Qi Mansion. Could it be that this little Taoist priest really has that great ability? If it is true... then Old Man Li's family will be saved!"

The hillside is not steep. The mountain road is paved with steps paved with bluestone. The branches on both sides of the mountain road have grown on the mountain road because no one has pruned it for a long time. Qinghe spontaneously walked in front and used a dagger to open the way for Dianhua. Dianhua noticed that Qinghe's dagger and Qingsong used a dagger to test the defense of his fairy robe were of the same style.

The hills are not high and the mountain roads are not long. Both of them are in good physical strength. They arrive at the gate of the Taoist temple on the top of the mountain in half a cup of tea.

There is a large copper sack hanging on the door. Such a large size has never been seen in modern society.
