"It is my duty as a Taoist to subjugate demons and protect the Tao. Since there are monsters and I have encountered them, it is natural to go and see them. Besides, we were planning to stay in the temple."

The seventh senior brother said with a smile, and then said to Lin Jue: "But you have to know, senior brother, I am not as good at fighting as the previous three senior brothers. If you really encounter monsters, junior brother, you have to protect me."

"Thank you, senior brother."

Lin Jue bowed to the seventh senior brother, and then looked at the group of people from the same village: "Uncle Shu, Lin Jue has been worshiping in Yishan since then, and has also learned some spells. He has also dealt with monsters and ghosts several times in the past few days. It just so happened that Lin Jue

We also plan to stay at the Sheshen Temple tonight, so we will go take a look for you."

"You? Does that work?"

"Is the monster very vicious?"

"They say they are some villains. Some people in the city have been injured by them, and some have been killed by them!"

"..." Lin Jue's eyes flickered, "Then we have to go take a look. After half a year of hard work, it's not a small amount of money. Please ask Uncle Shu to lead the way."

"Is your teacher really not here?"

"It's far away."

"and you……"

"Lead the way."

"Oh... let's go..."

Uncle Shu changed the direction and took them towards the Sheshen Temple.

Talking about the situation while walking.

"During this period, as long as they were not extremely poor, every household lost their money, and only the craftsmen who made tin boxes got rich. When you go shopping, any larger merchants and cashiers must have a tin box.

This is the reason.”

"That's true." Lin Jue said, "Why didn't Uncle Shu buy a tin box?"

"It's not that we were too careless. We were just trying to save money. We also blamed the tin box man. Seeing that it was late, he sat down and raised the price. We were so angry that we didn't buy it. We thought we were sleeping in a temple, but it was still a temple in the city.

There are so many incense offerings every day, which are somewhat useful, and the fairies and ghosts should not

You have to dare to come. In addition, we took turns to watch the night and held all the money in our arms. I thought nothing would happen. I never thought that I fell asleep in a daze. When I woke up, oh, I'm afraid it was

If you tell people in the village, they may not believe it, and even if they believe it, they will still gossip..."

Uncle Shu could not help but beat his chest and stamp his feet.

The others also regretted it greatly.

"The iron box...

"In a daze..."

Lin Jue muttered and thought about it.

"It's probably the way monsters and ghosts exhale to make people sleepy." The seventh senior brother is indeed not good at fighting to eliminate monsters, but he also learned some experiences from the previous senior brothers.

"I think so too."

As he was talking, he had already reached the shrine.

This temple is about the same size as the Sangu Temple in Shucun. The person who usually manages the temple is a person from the government, and I don’t know if it counts as a temple blessing. He only comes here during the day and is away at night. For a few dollars, he can stay in the temple.

Lin Jue took the initiative to give the copper coins and walked into the temple.

As soon as I entered, I felt something was wrong——

Although there is a statue of a god in the temple and you can smell the scent of incense, you cannot feel the divine charm of the incense. Instead, there is a faint yin energy that has not yet dissipated.

This is the benefit of practicing Yin and Yang spiritual methods.

People who practice yin and yang spiritual methods are extremely sensitive to the yin and yang spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and the vast majority of demons and ghosts in the world also follow the yin and yang path, and most demons and ghosts do not practice mature yin and yang spiritual methods like humans, and are familiar with the principles of yin and yang balance.

Innate cultivation, at the beginning of practice, will attract a large amount of yin energy into the body, and yin and yang will not be balanced. This is also a distinguishing feature.

Lin Jue stood in front of the statue and took a look. He was a rather elegant man, nothing special.

"Brother Donkey, thank you for sleeping outside all night."

The seventh brother said respectfully, tied the donkey outside the temple, took off the bamboo basket, moved it into the temple, and placed it next to the wall.

Lin Jue also placed the whistle stick and hatchet at a convenient location by the wall, then took a futon, walked to the wall and sat down against it.

Just sleep here tonight.

The little fox followed him with cheerful steps. When he sat down, he instinctively walked around the temple, smelled it, and became familiar with the environment, then returned to lie down next to him.

"Seventh Senior Brother, how much money do you have left?"

"It looks like there are only three taels left."

"Can……"

Lin Jue touched his arms.

He also had a savings of twenty taels of silver, but it was no longer of use when he reached the mountain. He finally made a trip down the mountain. Although he didn't know what to buy or what to buy, he still put it away. I didn't know what to do with it.

You can't lure out the silver-loving monster.

"I suggest we change out of our robes."

"Listen to Senior Brother Lin."

The seventh senior brother still teased Lin Jue like this.

Then all three of them took off their Taoist robes.

"To be on the safe side, Uncle Shu, don't sleep here tonight. We met a carriage and horse shop on the way here. You can go and stay at the carriage and horse shop. I'll pay the bill tomorrow morning."

"If you really encounter a monster, you have to put your own safety first!" Uncle Shu warned, and then said, "If you really can deal with the monster, you must give us this money and get it back.

, this is not only the hard-earned money of more than a dozen of us families for half a year, but it may also be life-saving money for the village that suffered a disaster!"

"How much is the total?"

"Two hundred and thirty-two dollars."

Businessmen here are known for their integrity, so Uncle Shu blurted out the amount of money without even thinking about it.

"Noted it down."

Lin Jue looked a little serious.

…

It was getting dark.

There are no ever-burning lamps in the temple, and there are only two tiny windows on the left and right.

They are said to be windows, but they are actually just holes the size of two heads. When it gets darker outside, it becomes dark inside the temple. When it gets dark outside, it is almost impossible to see inside the temple.

It's not until your eyes gradually adapt that you can see clearly.

He vaguely saw the Seventh Senior Brother taking something out of his arms, and then smearing something on his hand. Lin Jue heard him whisper: "It's not easy to save some money in the temple. We are not like the Third Senior Brother."

Your skills cannot really be stolen."

"Senior brother, what are you doing?"

"To be on the safe side, make some preparations." Brother Seventh said, "By the way, do you have any silver on you? Apply some of it too."

"What?"

"Green clam method..."

I vaguely saw the Seventh Senior Brother reaching out.

Lin Jue reached out to take it, groped in the darkness, and found a small bottle from the seventh brother's hand. It was about as thick as a finger and as long as a finger. It was a thin-necked bottle.

There is a sticky liquid inside.

"Drama." The Seventh Senior Brother explained to him, "The love between mother and child is so deep that they are inseparable. Take the juice of the two and refine it with a secret method. Apply one part of it on the money. After throwing it out, the magic will fly automatically."

Return."

"So magical?"

The junior sister's surprised voice sounded next to her.

"It's an ancient drama. Those who are more sophisticated will use this method to perform at temple fairs, throw the money out, or give it to the judge, and then come back automatically. Those who are not sophisticated will use it to buy things or harm people. Many books

There are records of such spells in the world.”

Lin Jue raised the bottle and put it under his nose.

It has a slight smell that is hard to describe.

After frowning and thinking for a moment, Lin Jue handed the bottle back to the seventh senior brother: "I won't apply it anymore, lest a monster comes and smells something wrong and doesn't dare to steal it."

"It makes sense!"

The seventh senior brother's expression also condensed, and then he said: "Sure enough, you are also a senior brother when it comes to dealing with goblins and ghosts."

"Stop laughing at me..."

"Ha ha!"

"I just met a lot of them by chance."

"Then let's stop talking."

"Okay!" Lin Jue agreed. He lowered his head and saw the little fox nesting next to him. In the dim light, it was a dark mass. He stretched out his hand and touched it. It was warm and soft, so he said, "

People are not as good as foxes at night, so you have to be more alert."

Fuyao has always been a dumb fox and didn't reply to him.

The temple immediately became quiet.

Lin Jue sat in the seat closest to the door and glanced warily at the two head-sized holes in the wall. He wondered if small or clever goblins and ghosts could get in through here.

On his left is the junior sister, and at the end is the seventh senior brother.

On the right are little foxes nesting in a ball.

I don’t know whether it’s because I know that foxes are alert nocturnal animals, or because having a fluffy little thing naturally makes people feel at ease, or because of some other reason, just a little thing about half a year old, quietly

Lying next to him actually made Lin Jue feel more peaceful and calm.
