A girl in a snow-white shirt stood outside, tilting her head slightly and smiling playfully. A brightly colored parrot stood on her shoulder, lovingly pecking at her earrings.

Yan Dan couldn't help asking: "How did you get in?"

The girl raised her hand to touch the parrot on her shoulder: "It told me that the bird is the smartest in the world and knows everything."

Tang Zhou thought a lot, unable to guess whether the other party was acting stupid or telling the truth.

The girl turned around and walked two steps. Seeing that they were not following, she turned her head and waved her hand: "Go and go, the bird will take us out." As she walked, she talked with the parrot on her shoulder, sometimes Laughing, sometimes angry, but keeping pace, opening the mechanism on the wall all the way, and walking forward quickly.

They turned around in the tunnel a few times, and suddenly their eyes lit up, and they actually came out of a cave under a chaotic grave. It was the evening at the moment, and they actually spent a whole day and night in the cemetery. Yan Dan walked two steps closer and asked with a smile, "Did the bird tell you, who shut us in the tunnel?"

The girl turned her head away, her smile blooming like a spring flower: "The bird knows everything, of course it will tell me. The bird said that she is a beautiful sister with a snake-hearted heart. She is rescued by others and will have to avenge her."

Yan Dan heard the words, looked at Tang Zhou, and then asked, "Then why should she avenge her gratitude?"

The girl tilted her head, as if listening to the parrot on her shoulder. The parrot croaked twice. The girl said, "It said, because that beautiful sister and an ugly brother are good, you saw that big brother. She’s going to keep you in it for the rest of your life and will never tell this secret."

"Secret...?" Yan Dan couldn't help but repeat softly.

Tao Ziqi is a subordinate of Palace Master Shenxiao, which is quite possible.

"Miss, why did you come here again, miss?" The woman I've seen ran over with her voice, panting out of exhaustion, "It's really not worrying, I'm not paying attention. You are gone again! She shook off the cloak in her hand and wrapped the girl in, looking at Tang Zhou and Yan Dan: "Thank you for the two ladies who take care of my family. Why don't you come and sit at home?"

Tang Zhouwan refused: "We didn't help much, and it's not easy to come to interrupt. This kindness can only be appreciated."

The woman nodded her head and her expression was heavy: "That's okay. Our Shen family is now haunting very fiercely. Before, there was a bull nose named Ling Xuzi who said he would come to help exorcise ghosts. She just ran over and she was crazy and crazy. It’s no use crying and laughing."

Tang Zhou thought for a while, and said, "Xia is also a celestial master, and I know Senior Ling Xuzi. Why don't you let him go to your house to see the situation? If there is no answer, there will be a countermeasure."

The woman looked at him, hesitated for a while, as if he was too young to be reliable, and finally nodded.

When the girl heard that they were going to their home, she was even more happy, pestering them to say some inexplicable things. The woman looked at and sighed: "It's a crime, my eldest is in a bad shape, and she doesn't leave the house, but the second lady doesn't understand anything. She was born a fool, and pity my master..."

The Shen family is a well-known rich family in Qingshi Town. A large mansion was built on the outskirts of the town. Two tall and strong nursing homes stood at the door.

When Tang Zhou stepped into Shen's house, he heard Yan Dan say gently: "It's really ghostly." He also immediately felt the spirit of the surrounding spirit: "Can you lead me to see Lord Shen? I want to ask him something."

The woman led them to the flower hall, and made people serve tea: "Sit down, two of you, I'll call my master."

Yan Dan walked a few steps back and forth in the hall, his eyes rolled, and he smiled very well: "Brother, since you plan to help them get rid of ghosts, don't you want me to follow along? Look at this prohibition..."

Tang Zhou glanced at her: "You stay a little longer, and I will help you untie it later."

Yan Dan's heart leaped for joy, and Yan Yan couldn't help but smile, and he was still a little suspicious, so he could only secretly glance at the other party. It's just that Tang Zhou remained silent and she couldn't see much.

After a while, the head of the Shen family came out.

After a few words of greeting, Tang Zhou turned around and started talking about the business: "It's true that the house is not very clean. Does he know the origin of this house?"

Master Shen is a white-faced businessman with a mediocre appearance, not very similar to the girl before him. He has very short nails and good clothes. He will enjoy it if he wants to. He heard what Tang Zhou said, and he couldn't help showing a look of horror: "This house was purchased later. I asked Mr. Feng Shui to see it. It was said that Feng Shui was very good. I have been doing business abroad in the past few years and my financial resources are very stable. Will it be unclean?"

"Maybe it was because someone died unjustly in this house before."

"This, this expulsion is convenient? If the son can do us this favor, just speak up no matter how much the reward is."

Tang Zhou nodded: "It takes only two or three days, Lord Shen doesn't have to worry. I asked Qianjin to help us before, so the reward is no longer needed, it's just a return of a favor."

Master Shen smiled bitterly: "You mean my second daughter Xiangjun. Alas, she is a kind and good boy, but unfortunately she is a silly girl, God has no eyes."

"I think Miss Shen has clear eyes, maybe she just doesn't know the world."

"Oh, I hope so. Xiangjun, if her sister is half clever and smart, I will be satisfied." Master Shen said in a tone and waved his hand again and again, "Look at me, what do you do with so much nonsense? You are tired too. Hu, Hu!" The woman who brought them here before rushed over immediately.

"Hu, you quickly arrange the wing for the two of you, and let people boil more hot water to let the distinguished guests take a bath." Master Shen ordered a few words, and turned to Tang Zhou and Yan Dan, "If you want something to eat, you can tell Hu's wife. It will be delivered from the kitchen."

Tang Zhou said lightly: "You are too polite, don't have to be so troublesome."

Master Shen immediately said: "What you want, what you want."

If it were on weekdays, Yan Dan would definitely be impatient with this kind of polite and long-winded, but Tang Zhou just promised to help her unblock her, and he was in a good mood and waited quietly. Husao arranged them in the east wing, and the two adjacent wing rooms have been cleaned up.

Tang Zhou really helped her unblock the restrictions on her hand, and then took the door to the next room to rest. The bit of suspicion left in Yan Dan's heart also disappeared, and he soaked in the sent hot water for a while, and felt refreshed. After dinner, he felt that she should start to implement her plan of escape.

As soon as she opened the door, she suddenly felt the golden light twinkling in front of her, staggering back a few steps, and sitting down on the ground. Yan Dan looked at it intently, and saw that there were a few pieces of talisman paper on the door and threshold, thinking it was Tang Zhou's handwriting again. It turned out that the joy full of heart seemed to have been poured by a basin of cold water, and my heart was cool.

The evening breeze sent Shen Xiangjun's crisp laughter and Tang Zhou's low voice. The two slowly approached, and the piebald parrot was still resting on Shen Xiangjun's shoulders. From time to time, she chirped and said something to the parrot, and then to Tang Zhou, with an air of affection. Tang Zhou lowered his head and listened to her patiently.

Yan Dan hugged her knees and stared at Tang Zhou. Tang Zhou quickly sensed her gaze, said a few words to Shen Xiangjun, and she immediately walked away with the parrot. Tang Zhou walked to the door of the guest room and smiled softly: "Why sit on the ground?"

Yan Dan smiled back, his tone of voice was actually very soft: "Brother, if you are afraid that people will run out and be entangled by evil spirits, just say it, why do you need to put so many talisman papers at the door?"

Tang Zhou smiled and said: "I'm not afraid that you will do some naughty things, so you have to make the last move. It is difficult for the younger sister to understand the painstaking efforts of your brother."

Yan Dan lowered his face coldly: "When are you going to take me to refine alchemy?"

Tang Zhou walked into the guest room and sat down at the table: "This is not in a hurry."

Yan Dan stood up and brushed the dust on his clothes: "There are so many monsters in the world, you just want to let me go."

Tang Zhou looked at her in the twilight, and slowly hummed, "Actually, I have thought about whether to let you go or not. Your nature does not seem to be bad."

Yan Dan stared at him with burning eyes.

"But it's not much better. Or should you be with me for a while to sharpen your xinxing?"

Yan Dan said immediately: "You should hurry up and make me a pill."

There was a little fire in the courtyard, but it was no ordinary fire, and it was full of ghostly blue and green. After a while, the phosphorous fire slowly extinguished by itself.

Tang Zhou gently walked into the courtyard, lowered his body and took some of the soil on the ground into his hands. He was about to turn back to the guest room when he heard a strange sound of crying and laughing from the West Chamber. The voice was vaguely familiar, as if he had heard it. He walked gently to the West Wing, leaned against the door, and looked into the crack of the door.

I saw an elderly Taoist priest in apricot and yellow robe sitting on the ground, beating his chest and feet, crying and laughing, it was Ling Xuzi. This person can be regarded as a great master, and it makes people sigh that he will fall to such a point.

Tang Zhou turned his head, and suddenly saw a cold light flashing in front of him, and the sharp long sword almost hit him. Tang Zhou used **** to pinch the sword in his hand, and saw that the man holding the sword was actually Shen Xiangjun! He was startled slightly, thinking about the darkness, she didn't recognize him at once. Just as he let go, Shen Xiangjun stabbed again with a sword, fast and cruel.

She looked gloomy and looked fierce in her eyes, as if she had changed herself during the day.

Tang Zhou didn't want to hurt her, so he put a scabbard on her shoulder well acupoint, Shen Xiangjun loosened his hand, and the long sword in his hand fell to the ground with a bang. He turned around, one footed, and left lightly.

From the West Chamber back to the East Chamber, one had to go through the courtyard, and only one person came slowly, but it was Master Shen. He carried a basket on his back and dragged a flower hoe, looking very strenuous. He took off the back basket and set it aside, picked up the flower **** and started digging the hole. Tang Zhou walked swiftly and walked around the tree near him without making any sound.

I saw him digging for a long time, digging more than three feet deep before stopping. He picked up the back basket at his feet and slowly poured the contents into the pit. Tang Zhou was hiding in a tree, only his profile could be seen, but he couldn't see what he was buried in. He thought for a while, and suddenly remembered that the hairpin that Tao Zixi had retrieved before was still with him, so he spotted the stone brick in the distance and threw it.

When the hairpin clashed when it landed, Master Shen immediately looked for it and left.

Tang Zhou jumped off the tree branch and looked into the pit by the moonlight, but the surrounding area was too dark, so he had to reach out and take some out of it, and wrapped it with the bag of soil before. As soon as he finished these things, he heard Master Shen's footsteps approaching again. He was in the shape of a green smoke and returned to the East Room.

The talisman papers at the door of Yan Dan's room are still well pasted, the candle in the room has been extinguished, and she has fallen asleep when she wants to come. Tang Zhou returned to his room and looked at what he had retrieved with the candlelight. The soil of the bag is very mixed, which may be caused by frequent stirring. And what Mr. Shen buried was even more strange, it was actually a few tender peach petals. Tang Zhou was not surprised, how could a businessman go to bury the flowers, or the petals just picked off? Why is the soil in the courtyard so mixed? Is it because someone often digs and buries something there?

He blew out the light, washed casually, and lay on the bed, just thinking about things in his heart, and couldn't sleep for a while. In the dimness, he felt someone standing in front of his bed. He suddenly became sober, but saw that the front of the bed was empty, the door of the room had been blown open by the wind, and it was snapping in the wind.
