I survive in the weird Liaozhai

Chapter 8 Did you go out without checking the almanac?

It is still early in the morning and roadside stalls have already started to open for business one after another.

Most of the shops are open, and there are only a few people walking on the street. It is not yet busy.

"Xu Ji Tea House" is a century-old shop and its business hours have always been punctual.

"Xu Ji Teahouse" is just a sideline for breakfast business, and there are only a few types of food, but the taste is acceptable. Most importantly, the price is affordable, and the quantity is large and filling, so the business is still good.

At this moment, Gu Nian'an is drinking tea at "Xu Ji Teahouse".

The worst option is really a damn pitfall. There are too many force majeure factors, it's speechless.

Who can tell him what the situation is like in the Li family? There are four burly men standing at the front door, and two more at the back door.

Climbing over the wall, oh wow, there’s someone there.

There were even more people coming in the other direction. Those who knew that this was Li's Mansion thought that they had accidentally climbed into the imperial palace, which was very tiring.

………Gu Nian’an gritted his teethjpg.

The location on the second floor of "Xu Ji Teahouse" is okay, at least you can see the Li family's front door. As for why there is only a pot of tea on the table.

Alas! This is another sad story.

He went out to climb over the wall, and then he said "Pooh, pooh, pooh" out of anger.

He went out to be the bodyguard for the old Taoist priest, not to visit a brothel, so why did he carry silver with him? Was it for the sound?

So he searched his whole body and found only three tong coins, but the worst pot of tea cost six tong coins.

Then, the proprietress gave him a pot of tea.

Didn’t you check the almanac before going out? Why is everything going wrong?

There's no other way, so let's just leave it like this. I hope the old Taoist can be helpful and nothing will go wrong.

He waited for two hours without getting impatient. He had plenty of patience.

In order to study the telescope in the mountains, he could spend several years working on two pieces of glass. So this little bit of time is nothing.

It’s just… this teahouse proprietress is quite interesting. Not only did she not chase him away, she also personally took the teapot to add water for him from time to time, and she was very diligent.

Gu Nian'an felt that if he continued drinking like this, he would turn into a water jar, the kind that would make a sound when shaken.

Finally, at noon, the gate of Li's mansion was opened, paper money paved the way, funeral music played, and men and women in white mourning clothes filed out of the open gate.

But there were so many people, and the distance was quite far, so Gu Nian'an couldn't see the specific situation for a moment. He thought that Taoist Qi Yuan should be mixed in the crowd now.

Suddenly, a loud noise was heard from the gate of Li's house, startling the people who were watching the excitement at the gate of Li's house.

Hearing this, Gu Nian'an rubbed his eyebrows in pain. Alas! Is it finally here?

Without saying much, he stood up quickly and jumped down from the second floor. As soon as his feet touched the ground, all the muscles in his body tensed up, he bent his body slightly, exerted force through the ground, and used his ankles to exert force. Gu Nian'an's whole body shot out like an arrow.

In an emergency, there is nothing to worry about. Master Qi Yuan’s safety is more important than anything else.

The proprietress, who was about to go forward to add water, was stunned.

This…this…are people so eager to watch the fun these days? ? ?

This is a teahouse, not a residence. The second floor of a teahouse is much higher than an ordinary residence. He just jumped down like that. Is he courting death?

He quickly put down the kettle and walked to the outer fence to check.

I looked down, and no one was there.

I looked forward again, oh wow! It was a master, so it was okay, looking at the figure running fast in the distance, he didn't look injured at all.

The teahouse was about four to five kilometers away from the Li family's gate, and there were many pedestrians in between. Gu Nian'an was anxious, and he drove at full speed and arrived at the Li family's gate in less than half a minute.

However, he was still a little slow, or perhaps he underestimated the public's desire to watch the fun at that time.

His grandmother’s three layers of guards almost blocked the Li family’s front door.

Gu Nian'an's eyes focused, and instead of slowing down, he sped up a bit.

When he came behind the crowd, he jumped up from a few meters away from the crowd, flew over their heads and landed directly next to a blood-red coffin.

Ignoring everyone's surprise, he quickly glanced around, and only when he saw Taoist Qi Yuan, who looked pale and a little panicked in the funeral procession, did he breathe a sigh of relief.

After coming to his senses, Gu Nian'an felt something was wrong.

"cold"

It was really too cold at the moment. A chill rushed from the soles of my feet to the top of my head. The scorching sun at noon was completely unable to offset the chill.

He retracted his gaze and looked at the coffin beside him. The coffin was blood red all over, about nine feet long, three feet wide, and about one meter high. There were cracks on the bluestone floor at the bottom of the coffin, which were obviously caused by the pressure of the coffin.

And the smell of blood was very strong. If I was not mistaken, it should be coming from the coffin next to me.

Looking at the coffin in front of him, Gu Nian'an felt uneasy and there was a bit of fear in his eyes. He looked away, quickly moved away from the coffin, and came to the old Taoist.

……Qi Yuan Taoist

What the hell is going on!!! The master who just performed the trapeze act seems to be his apprentice.

But... that's not right.

He watched his apprentice drink the tea last night, and he even added more tea. Logically, shouldn't his apprentice be lying on the bed, unconscious at this hour?

Also, is this really his apprentice? ? ?

When did he become so powerful? He just saw him jump more than four meters high, and how could he jump seven or eight meters far?

The Tiger Demon Bone Refining Fist is fake. It's fake. To think that practicing that thing can be so powerful, you must be kidding.

No, thinking about the current situation, Taoist Qi Yuan's face changed several times, and he was suddenly a little shocked and angry.

Didn't this evil creature let him run away? What kind of fun is this? Don't you know it's very dangerous here?

Without caring about anything else, the old Taoist quickly stepped forward, took his apprentice's hand, and wanted to take him away from this dangerous place.

But he couldn't pull it even after trying hard, so the old Taoist turned around and looked at his apprentice in surprise.

"Hurry up and leave, hurry up and leave, we can't stay here anymore, there's still time."

Seeing the old Taoist priest who seemed to be somewhat lost, Gu Nian'an felt helpless.

"Master, calm down. It's not time to run away yet."

And if it is possible, it should be too late.

Just now when he was next to the coffin, he heard a voice, a voice calling for help. The tone was eerie and strange, giving people goose bumps. It should be difficult for a living person to imitate.

Alas! Even in broad daylight, this sinister evil spirit could not be suppressed. It seemed that the person in the coffin must be a ruthless character.

Taoist Qi Yuan took a deep breath, sorted out his thoughts for a moment, then shifted his gaze, first looking at his disciple, then looking at one side of the Li family's gate.

A gloomy gaze was watching every move of the master and disciple.

Is that Song Qingshan, the steward of the Li family?
