I was bored and wandered around the house from the bottom to the top.

You even did quite well. It's not very inconvenient to travel through the countryside, and I have the urge to live here.

But I shook my head. Impulsive, after all.

"At this time, Third Uncle came back with a bunch of dishes in his hand." Xiaofan, come and help with the cooking. "

"What?" Third Uncle, two people are needed to cook! " I couldn't help but be speechless.

"You live so much in the city that you probably forgot the stove. You come and help with the firewood. Hurry, it's already half past eleven. "

Only then did I remember that there were many stoves in my hometown, and gas wasn't very popular here.

I immediately followed Third Uncle to the kitchen to help with the firewood.

Soon, the meal was ready.

"Third Uncle, your cooking skills are not bad at all!" You can go and find a hotel to be the head chef now! " I was stunned by Third Uncle's culinary skills.

"Hehe, not bad right? I wasn't idle during my travels back then. I learned quite a lot about cooking. As for being a chef, I don't like it. " The third uncle said with a proud look on his face.

Speaking of which, only after eating the vegetables from his hometown did he realize that the vegetables in the city were really unpalatable …

"These are all planted by Uncle Wang himself at the head of the village, fresh and cheap. "How is it, not bad right?" Third Uncle's face was filled with pride.

"Yeah, yeah. It's really delicious." I'm so busy with my mouth...

While we were eating, a person walked in from outside the door.

"Taoist Zhang, where have you been these past few days?!" "But it really pisses me off."

An old woman rushed in from outside.

"What's wrong, Wang Ma?" Didn't I go to the city for some business these few days? I didn't stay at home. "

"Don't worry about that. I couldn't find you a few days ago." Today, I heard from the village head old uncle Wang that you were back, so I hurried over. "

"Take a seat, what do you want to talk about?" Third Uncle put down his chopsticks and sat down on the sofa with Wang Ma. I ate and listened.

Wang Ma looked at me with a puzzled expression.

When his third uncle saw this, he smiled and said, "Wang Ma, this is Xiaofan, you don't remember?"

"So it's Little Fan. Speaking of which, I hugged you when I was young!" But then you went out and you haven't been back for years. " Wang Ma was also shocked and immediately passionately told me about it.

"Wang Ma, you can't remember so many things about your childhood." I rubbed my head and smiled awkwardly.

"It's fine, it's normal to not remember. I have something to discuss with your Third Uncle, how about we talk later? " Wang Ma said.

"Yes, you and Third Uncle should do your work first."

Then Wang Ma turned her head and began to talk to Third Uncle.

"Oh Taoist Zhang, when I went to sweep up my old man's tomb a few days ago, I discovered that his grave was completely dug out, there's nothing valuable inside." I wondered if I had met a ghost. I came looking for you. In the past few days, quite a few families' chickens had disappeared. They were discovered by the villagers near the tomb of our old man. I was bitten to death and my blood was all dried up. "

After saying that, Wang Ma patted her chest, looking very scared.

I was surprised. It really wasn't something that people and animals did.

Third Uncle only pondered for a moment before saying, "You can go back first. After I finish eating, I'll bring these guys and go take a look with you."

"Sure, you'd better hurry. I haven't had a good night's sleep these days. " After saying that, Wang Ma let out a sigh of relief, but when she thought about her few days of fear, she couldn't help but urge Third Uncle.

"Don't worry, there's still Little Fan with me. He's almost done learning."

"Then I am relieved. I didn't expect Little Fan to learn from you. In the future, we might have to rely on him in the village. " After Wang Ma finished speaking, she looked at me and started laughing.

My heart went numb, and I braced myself to say that I would.

Only then did Wang Ma leave. Third Uncle also returned to the table and picked up his chopsticks to continue eating.

"Third Uncle, when did I learn it?" "You've troubled me." I couldn't help but complain.

Third Uncle smiled and said, "You have to learn. I won't always be by your side. Some things should be learned by myself."

I was also startled, but felt that it made sense. I nodded and didn't say anything more.

After a while, Third Uncle and I finished enjoying the 'big meal'.

"Wait here for a while, I'm going to get some things." With that, Third Uncle ran upstairs.

I just sat here on the couch and looked around. He was so bored that he couldn't help but yawn.

Third Uncle only came down after a while. I was also speechless.

Third Uncle had a pile of things in his hands, but they were wrapped in cloth and he couldn't tell what they were.

"Third Uncle, what is this!" I couldn't help but ask.

Take a look for yourself, Third Uncle will bring the cloth.

Inside was a wooden sword, a Eight Trigrams Mirror, and a set of Daoist robes.

I felt that it was a little strange and asked, "Third Uncle, could these be my guys …?"

"What, you don't think it's good?" This is something my master left behind, it's extremely precious! " Third Uncle looked at me in annoyance. After that, he shook his head and sighed. It seemed that there was nothing he could do to me.

"Hehe, Third Uncle, don't be angry. I know these things are not simple. "

Third Uncle calmed down.

"For the time being, you don't need this daoist robe. Take the wooden sword and the Eight Trigrams Mirror." You're still there, right? "

"I'm here, I don't dare to lose it. I have it on me every day! " I reached into my bosom and took out the compass.

"Alright, let's hurry to Wang Ma's house." Third Uncle walked outside after he finished speaking.

As soon as I packed up my things, I followed.

It turned out that Wang Ma's home was just on the way up the hill from our house.

"Wang Ma, are you there?" Third Uncle knocked on the door.

"Coming, coming!" Wang Ma's voice came from inside.

A moment later the door opened.

"I was at the back weeding the ground. I can't wait for a while." Wang Ma explained.

"Alright, Wang Ma, hurry up and bring us there. We should go and have a look earlier, otherwise, it would not be convenient to wait at night, and it would not be safe. " Third Uncle said seriously.

"Alright, we'll go after I change my shoes." With that, Wang Ma changed her shoes on the side.

"Let's go!" Wang Ma was done.

Third Uncle and I followed Wang Ma as we walked along the riverside. After going up a hill and going around in a few circles, we finally arrived at a hill.

"We walked over." "Look, this is the place." Wang Ma turned around and said to us.

When Third Uncle and I saw it, we were slightly surprised. The tombstone in front of the grave was still intact. The earth above the grave behind it had all disappeared. There was a coffin inside that had even been opened.

Wang Ma opened her mouth, "It can't be that my old man did this, right?" After saying that, Wang Ma's face became a bit pale.

Third Uncle did not answer Wang Ma and looked carefully.

The nails that had sealed the coffin were gone, as was the ink line. When Third Uncle saw this, he began to ponder.

Beside him, my Wang Ma did not dare to disturb his thoughts, and did not make a sound.

"I think I know what's going on. Let's go back first!" It should be settled by tomorrow. Wang Ma, just relax. " Third Uncle smiled at Wang Ma, hinting her to relax.

When Wang Ma heard this, she was surprised for a moment, but then she felt grateful towards Third Uncle and continued to talk for a long time. Third Uncle couldn't take it anymore, so he took me and ran away like a wisp of smoke …

When Third Uncle and I returned home, I asked him, "Third Uncle, you said that matters should be resolved. Why don't I see anything?" I asked Third Uncle doubtfully.

"Of course you can't tell. Only us old Daoists who study the five elements know." After Third Uncle finished speaking, he stroked his beard and smiled, looking just like an old Taoist …

I couldn't help but be speechless.

When Third Uncle saw me, he said, "Alright, I'll teach you first. "Listen!"

I nodded quickly and pricked up my ears.

"I just went to that cemetery. Did someone dig that grave?" Third Uncle asked me.

I thought about it for a moment. The burial ground behind the grave had been dug out and the coffin had been exposed, but there was nothing inside.

I nodded.

Third Uncle continued, "Do you know that the coffin has to be nailed down? Also, do you know how to bind the Ink Dagger? " Third Uncle had two questions on the subject.

"I know this nail. It's used to close the coffin. "But what's the use of the line?" I don't understand.

"After that nail is nailed down, the dead body inside becomes a zombie and is unable to come out. Then the yin aura slowly dissipates and the breath in the throat will also dissipate. Then, the zombie will no longer exist. It's about the same as this Mo Dou line, it's like a zombie getting electrocuted. "

Third Uncle talked a lot, and it was the first time I heard him talk about it.

"That's because after Wang Ma's husband died, he turned into a zombie and ran out?" I suddenly had an idea.

"Idiot, I've already taught for such a long time. With the metal nails and the black line, no matter how powerful the zombies inside are, they won't be able to come out." Third Uncle rubbed his temples and felt a little disappointed.

My face reddened, and I couldn't speak anymore.

Third Uncle said, "This must be some foreign ghost. Although this ghost doesn't have any concept of home, we still have to find a place to hide during the day." "I think there's a good chance that someone used this place as their home."

When I heard that, I hastily asked, "Third Uncle, is that ghost not afraid of the Mo Dou line? Also, how will he break the nails? "

"It's very easy to remove the spikes from the outside. Furthermore, the Mo Dou Zombies don't have any way to break them, but the other ghosts might be easier to break. It's easy to break any kind of knife."

When I heard this, I suddenly realized that there were so many strange things that happened.

"Alright, get the things ready. "After we eat, the sun goes down and we set."

"What?" When I heard that, I jumped in fright, "No way, aren't we looking for that ghost tonight? Isn't that just courting death?"

"You silly boy, we are not afraid of him. Furthermore, if he doesn't come out during the day and you don't come out at night, how will you find him and wait for him to come looking for you? " Third Uncle snappily said.
