Li Ying put the money into Wu Qiang's hand and urged: "Take the money and leave my house and go to the street to buy food by yourself."
Li Guorong looked at the money in Wu Qiang's hand with pain. It was only one yuan, which could buy a lot of delicious food. If you give the money to yourself, Li Guorong can give his food to the old Taoist priest.
Wu Qiang took out a wad of money and waved it at Li Ying in a showy way, "I am not short of money."
Li Guorong and Li Guoqing looked at the money in Wu Qiang's hand, and their eyes suddenly lit up. Such a big pile of money should be more than 100 yuan! Li Ying looked at the money in Wu Qiang's hand. The smelly Taoist priest was indeed rich, but she was not short of money either. She took her own dollar back from Wu Qiang's hand and said, "Since you have money, don't rely on me." , leave quickly."
Wu Qiang put the money in Li Ying's hand and suggested: "Your house is so spacious, I can live in it as well. This is the accommodation and food expenses."
Li Guorong saw that the old Taoist priest was so old and that there was a powerful ghost in his family. He would be a fool if he didn't take the money, so he said: "Ying'er, let the old Taoist priest stay here. If he dares to have bad intentions, let the sister in red put him there." throw it out."
Li Ying rolled her eyes at Li Guorong, her eyes widened at the sight of money, and she frowned and asked, "Are you sure the sister in red can beat him?"
This old Taoist priest can feel that there is a ghost in his home, which proves his extraordinary strength. Moreover, the sister in red has not come out for so long, so she must be afraid of the old Taoist priest.
Li Ying felt that Li Guorong was not only greedy for money, but also tall but not brainy.
"It should be possible!" Li Guorong said uncertainly.
"What are you afraid of? This is a city. There are so many people coming and going at the door. If he dares to have bad intentions and stand at the door and yell, many people will hear him." Li Guoqing said.
Li Ying didn't feel that the old Taoist priest had any malicious intentions, so she said nothing more.
Li Guorong looked at the money in Li Ying's hand and said flatteringly: "Ying'er, there is a braised pork seller on the street. Can you buy a pound of braised pork and eat it back?"
Li Ying also wanted to eat delicious food, so she took out ten yuan and said, "Go buy a pound of braised pig head meat and let the boss cut it thinner."
When Li Ying said this, she suddenly thought that Li Guorong was so stupid. If all he bought was fat meat, wouldn't it be a big loss?
"Forget it, you're so stupid, I'd better buy it myself." Li Ying said.
"Bring me a pound of wine by the way." Wu Qiang said.
Li Ying saw that Wu Qiang's hair had turned white, and given so much money, a pound of wine only cost a few dollars, so she said generously: "Okay, I will bring you a pound of rice wine by the way."
Li Ying went back to her room to put away her money, put ten yuan in her pocket, picked up a clean glass bottle, and was ready to go out.
"We are going too!" Li Guoqing and Li Guorong said.
"Follow me if you want to," Li Ying said nonchalantly.
As soon as the three brothers and sisters Li Ying left, Wu Qiang took out the compass from his messenger bag, followed the direction of the compass to an empty room on the second floor, put the compass away, took out a talisman, and said sternly: "Show yourself quickly, or don't blame me." You're welcome."
Seeing that Wu Qiang couldn't hide, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, thinking that if he couldn't hide, there would be nothing he could do. He really underestimated him!
Wu Qiang flipped his fingers and muttered words, and the spell flew from his hand into the air. The runes glowed brightly and flew quickly towards the corner of the room.
"Ah!" A scream came out, the air suddenly turned cold, and the female ghost in red appeared, her clothes automatically moved without wind, looking at Wu Qiang with an angry face, "Stinky Taoist priest, you and I have no grievances, why did you die? Hold on to me and won’t let go.”
Wu Qiang saw that there was no human life on the female ghost in red, and said calmly: "There are differences between humans and ghosts. You can't stay here forever. Over time, the master's family will be contaminated with yin and bad luck, which will affect the master's luck. "
"It was Li Ying who asked me to stay with her and teach her how to read and write. She avenged me. I never get close to other members of the Li family." said the female ghost in red.
After hearing the words of the female ghost in red, Wu Qiang showed a hint of surprise on his face. Not only was the little girl not afraid of ghosts, but she was in company with ghosts, which really made him a little bit weird.
"You are a thousand-year-old female ghost with a heavy yin energy. You cannot stay in the Li family all the time. You should leave as soon as possible." "Go and tell Li Ying. If she asks me to leave, I will leave immediately." The female ghost in red knew that she His cultivation level could not defeat Wu Qiang, so he turned invisible and ignored Wu Qiang.
The window of Li Ying's room was half open. When Wu Qiang was about to go downstairs, he passed by Li Ying's room and accidentally caught a glimpse of a stack of talismans on the table. Curious appeared on his face. Seeing that the door to the room was not closed, he walked into the room and casually picked up the talismans from the table. He picked up a talisman. It was an ordinary amulet. It had some power, so it was of some use to carry it with him.
Wu Qiang casually scanned the room and found that it was a little girl's room. This talisman should be in the room of the little girl Li Ying. The talisman should have been drawn by her. He looked through the talismans on the table and found that there were also evil talismans and exorcism talismans. , with great joy on his face, a little girl can actually draw several kinds of talismans, what a genius!
The three brothers and sisters Li Ying came to the street happily and walked to the braised pork stall. They looked at the fragrant cooked food on the stall and swallowed their saliva.
The stall owner smiled and said, "Kids, do you want to buy braised pork?"
Li Ying nodded and said, "Well, how much does braised pig head cost per pound?"
The boss said: "Two yuan and five pounds?"
Li Ying looked at her boss and asked, "Boss, do you think I am a fool?"
"The little girl looks smart, sweet and cute, how could she be a fool?" the boss said.
"I thought I looked like a fool." Li Ying said, "Pig head meat costs [-] cents a pound. You braised it casually and bought me two dollars and a half a pound. Are you bullying me as a child and deliberately blackmailing me?" .”
The boss hurriedly said: "Absolutely not. I am an innocent child and I definitely did not raise the price."
As long as they are strangers, he will sell them for two yuan and a half, and regular customers will sell them for two yuan and three. This is not considered blackmail! "But I asked my neighbor next door, and he said that your braised pork only costs two yuan a pound." Li Ying said.
Li Guorong and Li Guorong looked at Li Ying in confusion. They just moved in yesterday and didn't know anyone at all! I didn’t even ask my next door neighbor how much a pound of braised pork costs! "I have never sold braised pork for two yuan per catty. The lowest price is two yuan and three per catty." The boss blurted out.
"Two yuan and three pounds, give me one pound. I want this piece, cut it thinner. I don't want it if it's too fat." Li Ying said with a smile.
The boss looked at Li Yingxi's smiling face and knew that he had been tricked by a little girl. He reluctantly cut a piece of braised pork for Li Ying, weighed it on the scale, and said, "Two dollars and fifty cents."
Li Ying took out ten yuan and handed it to the boss. The boss gave Li Ying change. Li Ying happily took the money and generously gave Li Guorong and Li Guoqing ten cents each. Then she put the money away and waited for the boss to cut the braised pork. After carrying the braised pork to Li Guorong, they went to the canteen to buy Wu Qiang a pound of wine. The three brothers and sister ran home jumping.
Wu Qiang was sitting in the living room, watching the three brothers and sisters Li Ying come back. He looked at Li Ying with fiery eyes. He must accept Li Ying as his apprentice.
In the evening, Li Yun and Fang Li came back from shopping for groceries and saw Wu Qiang sitting in the living room with surprise on their faces.
"Taoist Priest, why did you come to my house?"
"I was traveling around and passed by your house. I saw something ghostly in your house, so I went into the house to find out..." Wu Qiang said eloquently.
Li Yun felt a little embarrassed when he heard that Li Ying had received 150 yuan from Wu Qiang. He also saw that Wu Qiang was an immortal and he didn't look like a bad person. He said generously: "I have many rooms in my house. The Taoist priest can live here for as long as he likes." Can."
When Li Ying saw Li Yun coming home, she went back to her room to dig out the money Wu Qiang gave her, ran to Li Yun and Fang Li, and handed the money to Li Yun, "Dad, Mom, I made money for you."
Li Yun took the money, gave 20 yuan to Li Ying, gave Li Guorong and Li Guoqing one yuan each, and then handed the money to Fang Li and asked her to pack it away.
At twelve o'clock at midnight, the buildings on both sides of Lianhe Street were hidden in the darkness, and the street lights flickered on and off. The street was deserted. Occasionally, there were people working the night shift riding bicycles on the street.
Three little girls stood in the middle of the road jumping rubber bands, singing happily, "Little rubber ball, kick it with your feet, Malan blossoms 21,...nine, eight, nine, nine, one hundred and one..."
The song of rubber band jumping echoed in the sky above Lotus Street.
