Chapter 33 A group of demons dance 25
"It's outrageous! Don't think you were invited by my parents, you can do whatever you want!"
Xu Xiangyun ran in panting, and when she saw Chen Xiao looking at the painting, her face turned red! She became more and more embarrassed and annoyed!
She rushed over a few steps, grabbed the ink paintings on the table and kneaded them into a ball, and said angrily: "Are you Taoist priests used to being wild outside? You don't understand the rules of the world at all! Go into other people's rooms casually! Look at other people's things casually!"
Master Chen looked cold and did not comment on the painting. He only said lightly: "Ms. Xu is so elegant."
"You!..." Xu Xiangyun bit her lower lip angrily and glared at him with her eyes, "Can you go out now?!"
Chen Xiao didn't look at her, and his eyes were slowly patrolling the house, and finally stopped on the carved wooden window on the east side of the room.
Xu Xiangyun frowned and looked at him, but she didn't find anything. Just as she was about to mock Chen Xiao for being mysterious, Master Chen walked to the window a few steps and slowly pulled out a paper man with his eyes from the crack in the window!
Xu Xiangyun widened her eyes in horror, "What, how could it be?... I slept well at night and didn't find my eyes in the house!"
Chen Xiao looked back at her and said calmly: "You have never practiced before, so your five senses are naturally slower than us."
Xu Xiangyun: “…………”
Chen Xiao burned the paper man and walked out to Lord Xu and Mrs. Xu who were coming from outside, saying, "This puppet doll is a dead object, so it is difficult for people to notice it. Just in case, I want to check every room here."
Lord Xu hurriedly bowed, "I have a hard time Taoist Chen."
Mrs. Xu frowned and said nothing. Looking at her expression, she seemed to feel very unlucky about the appearance of a paper man at home.
Everyone stayed there, and the butler of Xu's mansion took Chen Xiao to each room to check. The county magistrate was honest and the Xu family's house was also compact. It took less time to take Chen Xiao to check all the rooms.
"It seems that except for the wing room we checked in and Miss Xu's boudoir, there is no problem with other rooms."
Chen Xiao came back with a calm expression, and his eyes were still worried about looking around.
"It may also be that the demon who casts the spells noticed it, so he controlled the puppets to leave here by himself. Don't worry too much. Although these paper people are everywhere, their weaknesses are also obvious. They are afraid of water and fire. As long as they spray water on the doors and windows, the paper people will be wet when they encounter water, and they will be stuck to the doors and windows and unable to move."
Lord Xu nodded in agreement, "This method is good. Come on, get some water, do as the Taoist priest, spray all the gaps in the doors and windows."
Xu Xiangyun murmured in a low voice: "It will dry sooner or later if you spray water."
Chen Xiao looked at her indifferently, "That's right, so this method can only be used for emergency treatment, not forever. It's too late. Please rest first. I'll stay here. I'll wait until dawn, and then find a way to find out the demonic path hiding here."
Lord Xu thanked again: "I have worked hard for Taoist priest."
In the middle of the night, everyone gradually dispersed. Miss Xu looked at Chen Xiao in anger and returned to the room.
Chen Xiao and Lin Yuan, Shi Xianyu returned to the side room of the side courtyard. He put away the indifference he had just been in front of the Xu family and said to the two seriously: "If the puppet paper men just now came from the hands of the fox demon, it would be fine. If they were really from the hands of the demon, it would be a bit dangerous to eliminate the demon this time."
Shi Xianyu asked: "Is the demon path difficult to deal with?"
Chen Xiao nodded with a ugly expression, "If you only practice Taoism, it may not be effective, but the demon Tao is good at side-by-side and evil methods are emerging one after another, making people unable to defend themselves. We must find out the identity of this person as soon as possible, otherwise when the fox demon comes, the other party may want to reap the benefits of the fisherman."
Seeing Chen Xiao talking so seriously, Shi Xianyu couldn't help but get nervous. After thinking carefully, he said, "It's actually not difficult to find the other party. The wing room is vacant all year round. If you want to monitor it, it is impossible to monitor the empty house. So it must be that after we arrived at the Xu Mansion, the other party would send a puppet to come after we knew which room we live in. Then we just need to find someone who had been close to the Xu Mansion today."
Chen Xiao was slightly stunned, "...Xiaoyu means, the boss Wu who visited today?"
"Yes." Shi Xianyu nodded, "No one else has come to Xu's mansion except him."
Chen Xiao frowned, "But... the paper man in Xu Xiangyun's house may not have appeared today. If it had existed for a long time, it would be difficult to judge when the puppet sneaked in."
"You are wrong, Brother Shen." Shi Xianyu said decisively, "The paper man in Miss Xu's house must have appeared today. Have you forgotten? You were the paper man found in the cracks in the windows. Before we came, Miss Xu's room doors and windows were blocked. On weekdays, the servants rely on the half window to deliver water and food. If the paper man had existed for a long time, he would have discovered the paper man when he opened and closed the window."
Chen Xiao suddenly realized, "After I came, I asked them to open the doors and windows. The windows were closed in the evening, and that boss Wu also came to visit in the evening!"
A cold light flashed in Linyuan's eyes and he said coldly: "Go to find him?"
"No..." Chen Xiao's deep eyes were slightly closed and he said in a deep thought, "Wait a little longer, don't alert the snake for the time being. Let's treat it as unaware of it. I will find an opportunity tomorrow to test him."
Shi Xianyu also agreed: "Yes, if we look for it in a hurry now, we will give him a chance to be prepared. The fox demon has not yet appeared, so it is best to be careful."
Chen Xiao nodded, "You should rest first, let Linyuan guard here, I will go to Xu Xiangyun to stare. It seems that this demon knows that the fox demon will attack the young woman, so he specially chose you two to monitor, probably because he wanted to find an opportunity to hunt the demon pill."
Shi Xianyu was frightened and was not sleepy, but he was really exhausted both physically and mentally, and felt tired all over.
"Then I'll go to rest, Brother Shen is careful," she said.
Chen Xiao didn't say much and hurried to Xu Xiangyun's boudoir.
After he left, Shi Xianyu's momentum was venting again. When he thought of those eyes, he felt uncomfortable all over. When he thought of the fox demon, he was a little nervous when he thought that the fox demon would come at any time, she looked at her door, bit her lip, and had to discuss with Lin Yuan beside her: "Can I go to your room to sleep?"
Lin Yuan was slightly stunned.
Shi Xianyu bit his lip and explained in embarrassment: "Although the puppet has been burned by Brother Shen, when he thinks of so many eyes in the room, he is still so scared that he can't sleep... Brother Shen is going to watch the night tonight. You can go to his room to sleep, just treat us changing rooms, okay?"
Linyuan naturally agreed after hearing this.
He walked over a few steps, opened the door, and cared about Shi Xianyu's larger outdoor travel backpack from the original room.
Shi Xianyu let out a breath, slowly climbed onto the bed, and lay down.
In fact, the decorations of these wing rooms are similar, so looking at the familiar bed curtains and beams in front of her, her feelings have not improved much.
"Linyuan..." She pulled out his sleeves with a little embarrassedly, "Can you go when I fall asleep?"
Linyuan looked at her calmly, and for a moment, he sat down beside the bed and quietly accompanied her.
I thought to myself: It's great, she slept on his bed, and her body smelled.
