The invincible female ghost is a bit love-struck.

Chapter 37 Ancestor! What kind of chapter did you bring here?!

Lu Yuan turned his head and saw Xu Erxiao and Wang Chengan, two half-grown boys, running over excitedly.

Looking at these two clowns, Lu Yuan raised an eyebrow.

"Why haven't you two gone home yet?"

Xu Erxiao and Wang Chengan scratched the back of their heads, revealing a set of big white teeth.

"We were worried about you, Brother Lu, so we thought we'd wait until you came back before we left..."

Listening to their conversation, Lu Yuan smiled helplessly.

These two are younger than me, mischievous and naughty, and their mouths aren't very clean either.

But to be fair, these two really care about me.

Coming to his senses, Lu Yuan couldn't help but curl his lip and say:

"What could possibly happen to me? Hurry home, or your family will start nagging you."

The two shook their heads vigorously.

"I'm not going back today!"

"It gets dark quickly, let's leave early tomorrow morning. It's a good time, a day or two won't make a difference."

Lu Yuan thought about it and realized that it was already three or four in the afternoon. It gets dark early in winter, which made sense.

He nodded and said no more.

"Alright, is there anyone else free in the yard? Call a few people out to help me carry something."

"Okay!"

The two agreed immediately and turned to call for help.

A short while later, several young Taoist priests of similar age came running out.

Everyone was full of energy, and upon seeing Lu Yuan, they all bowed and shouted in unison:

"Brother Lu!"

Strictly speaking, if we're going by seniority and following proper etiquette, these people should also call Lu Yuan "Uncle-Master".

However, Zhenlong Temple only has the form of a grand temple, not a famous temple.

However, it lacked the grand and imposing atmosphere of a famous temple.

Lu Yuan didn't think there was anything wrong with it; calling him "Shishu" (a respectful term for a senior martial arts master) would seem too formal.

Moreover, Lu Yuan wasn't much older than these people.

It's so awkward that it looks like two generations have been separated.

He led the group of teenagers toward the mountain gate, casually asking:

"Where's the old man?"

Xu Erxiao and Wang Chengan exchanged a glance and shook their heads in unison.

"I don't know."

"The day before yesterday, Aunt Qiao'er sent a lot of money, saying she wanted to help us build a side hall."

Perhaps he was in a good mood and had a few drinks, and I wonder where the cat is sleeping.

Lu Yuan paused in his steps.

"Aunt Qiao'er is here?"

"No," Xu Erxiao interjected. "It was that steward named Wang Fu who brought the men."

Lu Yuan nodded knowingly.

Given Zhao Qiao'er's situation, it would be best for her to stay at home peacefully, carrying the magical artifact she was given, and not wander off.

Speaking of which...

I also need to take advantage of the fact that the mountains are not blocked by heavy snow and go to Zhao Qiao'er's house to finish that job.

Otherwise, the roads will be difficult to travel after heavy snow.

"By the way, Aunt Qiao'er also gave you a lot of good stuff."

Xu Erxiao suddenly spoke again.

As Xu Er finished his story, Wang Cheng'an leaned over with a mysterious look and said:

"It has a spirit and flesh!"

"I peeked through the crack in that box that was almost completely shut, and there were red ones!"

hold head high?

Lu Yuan was taken aback. Red spiritual flesh?

That was a top-tier spiritual meat, a level even higher than the pink spiritual meat that Huang Menji had previously handled.

The pink spirit meat in the braised chicken is worth 13,000.

That same size red spirit flesh would cost at least seventy or eighty thousand!

Even this is priceless!

Extremely rare!

Before Lu Yuan could say anything, Xu Erxiao and Wang Chengan whispered in his ear:

"We've moved both of them into Lu Ge'er's room."

"Brother Lu, wait a while and when you get back, you'll know once you open it."

Upon hearing this, Lu Yuan frowned, slapped his thigh, and said anxiously:

"Alas!!!!"

"Can you just buy this stuff like that?!"

"What are you going to give me in return?!"

If Lu Yuan accepts this red spirit meat, he will forever be inferior to Zhao Qiao'er.

You've accepted their favor; how are you going to talk to them normally afterward?

Every gift has a price tag already secretly attached.

You'll have to pay for it sooner or later!

Upon seeing that Lu Yuanzhen was about to lose his temper, Xu Erxiao and Wang Chengan quickly waved their hands in fear and said:

"It wasn't us who did it, and we don't have the ability to do it."

"The old man told me to accept it."

After they finished speaking, they seemed to remember something and quickly added:

"Oh dear, Aunt Qiao'er even brought us a lot of things!"

"We'll tidy it up and return it later!"

Hearing what the two were saying, Lu Yuan turned his head, looking completely bewildered, and asked:

"What did she give you two?"

The two immediately began to recall and count:

"There's a fur coat, fur gloves, fur boots, all sorts of odds and ends, and two pieces of blue spirit meat..."

"It would add up to several thousand yuan."

Hearing their conversation, Lu Yuan said directly:

"I don't care about you two, you can pay it back if you want."

Lu Yuan didn't care whether Xu Erxiao and Wang Chengan accepted it or not; it wasn't for him, so it had nothing to do with him.

But Lu Yuan would never accept what was given to him; he would return it later!

Wang Cheng'an and Xu Erxiao, however, immediately stiffened their necks and said:

"That won't do!"

"If you don't want it, Brother Lu, we don't want it either!"

Hearing what the two boys said, Lu Yuan didn't say anything more.

The group soon arrived outside the mountain gate.

When the heavy coffin appeared before everyone, all the young Taoist priests felt a chill run from the soles of their feet straight to the top of their heads.

That's too eerie.

The contents of this coffin are terrifyingly sinister.

Even though Lu Yuan had already affixed several hand-drawn "evil-binding talismans" to the outside of the coffin.

But how could a few talismans completely seal off the resentment and malevolent energy originating from the 20th star super ominous place?

However, the disciples of Zhenlong Temple are all sensible.

Although they sensed the evil aura, no one dared to ask, and they silently helped Lu Yuan carry the coffin.

Soon, the coffin was carried into an unused side hall in the backyard.

Lu Yuan sent all his junior brothers away, not even Wang Cheng'an and Xu Erxiao.

I wanted to go find the old man first, but after searching around the Taoist temple for a long time, I couldn't find a single person.

He probably drank too much and fell asleep somewhere.

Lu Yuan had no choice but to give up and return to the side hall, where he began to set up the magic array on his own.

The main point is to prevent Gu Qingwan's evil aura from affecting others, especially the worshippers who come to Zhenlong Temple.

Of course, even if worshippers discover that Zhenlong Temple has an evil aura, it doesn't matter.

Just say that Zhenlong Temple is there to exorcise a major evil spirit; the final interpretation rests with Zhenlong Temple.

However, it's best to avoid being discovered if possible, to avoid trouble.

……

It was past seven o'clock at night.

Inside the side hall, Lu Yuan was still sweating profusely as he inscribed the array base.

Now, the walls and beams of this house are covered with countless talismans drawn with cinnabar.

And deep in a bamboo forest behind Zhenlong Temple.

wow-

In the pile of dead leaves, an old man reeking of alcohol was suddenly awakened by the cold and sat up with a start.

He was still sleepy, letting out long hiccups, and looked around at the dark surroundings in a daze, then looked up at the cold, clear moon.

I'm hungry.

The old man stood up unsteadily, rubbing his emaciated belly, just about to turn back to the temple to find something to eat.

Suddenly, his body stiffened.

Those originally cloudy and hazy drunken eyes instantly became sharp as lightning, scanning the entire Qixia Ridge.

He raised his head, brought his red, bulbous nose to the air, and took a deep breath.

"This tastes wrong..."

A few seconds later, the old man suddenly slapped his thigh, his eyes wide open, and there was no trace of drunkenness left!

"My goodness!!! What the hell did you bring back?!"
