Three times married to Yama

Old Master Pei's expression froze, and he remained silent for a moment.

Master Lu, standing to the side, gave Xia Zheng and me a disdainful smile.

"Can you really deal with ghosts that bring wealth?"

Xia Zheng was about to speak when I raised my hand to stop him. I looked back at him and said, "Master, can't you?"

"My master doesn't even need to lift a finger to deal with the ghost of wealth; I, as the disciple, can handle it."

Master Lu sneered upon hearing this, "Young man, don't talk too big, or you'll bite your tongue."

I, Lan Yin, always speak the truth and never exaggerate, but this Master Lu doesn't seem to believe me.

But it's not a big problem.

I said, "Master, you must have come to the Pei family to resolve the issue of the Yin Wealth Ghost, right? How about this, you resolve the Yin Wealth Ghost issue first, and if you can't resolve it, you can ask my master's disciple for help."

"You!" Master Lu was taken aback, and his face, which was already somewhat dark, turned a little red.

I was just telling the truth, and I don't know why he seemed a little angry.

Master Lu turned to look at Old Master Pei, "Old Master Pei, now that things have come to this, you should tell me where the Yin Cai Ghost is buried. As long as the body is dug up, I will naturally have a way to destroy it!"

Old Master Pei frowned. He thought for a moment before saying, "My father only told me that Aunt Pan and Yiyi's bodies were taken away by that Master Mo Xun, but he didn't tell me where they were buried."

Master Mo Xun once told Pei Jian to go to Yuandu Temple to find him, which proves that he lives in Yuandu Temple. He might return to Yuandu Temple after taking away the bodies of Pan Yi and her daughter.

Master Lu had also thought of these things, so he directly suggested that we go and find the former Yidu Temple.

"Master Pei, do you know where the former Yuandu Temple was?" Master Lu asked.

Grandpa Pei paused for a moment, then nodded. "I know, but the Yuandu Temple closed down thirty years ago. I don't know if it's still there now."

"Why don't we go and see for ourselves? Please lead the way, Master Pei." Master Lu's tone was firm, leaving Master Pei no room to refuse.

"OK."

Since the entire Pei family had fallen into a deep sleep, Old Master Pei had no choice but to call and find a driver again to rush to the Iris Temple overnight.

Grandpa Pei was worried that Master Lu wouldn't be able to handle it, so this time, without us even having to ask, he took the initiative to arrange vehicles for Xia Zheng and me, which made Master Lu even angrier.

My mom, Xia Zheng, and I rode in one car, while Grandpa Pei and Master Lu rode in another.

In the car, my mother looked very serious, and she looked at me cautiously.

"Ah Yin..." she called softly.

I shifted my gaze from straight ahead to her. "What's wrong, Mom?"

She hesitated for a few seconds before saying to me, "If we really find the Yin Cai Ghost at the Yidu Temple, is it possible to perform a ritual to help it pass on or spare its life?"

It seems my mother sympathizes with the plight of the Yin Cai Gui (a type of ghostly wealth).

I didn't answer her immediately, but instead asked, "Mom, do you think I'll be like my dad?"

"That's not what I meant!" my mother said immediately, her face full of panic. "Ah Yin, don't misunderstand. I just feel sorry for the ghosts of wealth and misfortune. It would be great if they could be helped to pass on their lives."

I smiled slightly at her and said, "Don't worry, I'm a little different from my dad."

"Mmm." She nodded gently.

The Yuandu Temple is located in Xihu City, on a mountain on the border of Xihu City. The mountain is rarely visited by people, but occasionally some people will climb it for novelty.

It was already two in the morning when they reached the foot of the mountain. Old Master Pei, who was quite old, walked ahead with a cane, looking like he could collapse at any moment.

After another hour, we finally arrived at the Yuandu Temple halfway up the mountain.

Although the Yuandu Temple has been closed for thirty years, it seems to be regularly cleaned and maintained, so although it looks old, it does not appear to be decayed.

So here's the question: if someone is responsible for cleaning and maintenance, who would it be?

"Master Lu, we've arrived at Yuandu Temple," said Old Master Pei, pointing to the small Taoist temple in front of him.

Master Lu immediately adopted a superior demeanor, "I see it. Next, I will use the Corpse-Finding Technique to locate the corpse of the Yin Wealth Ghost."

Xia Zheng leaned close to my ear and whispered, "Master, he's about to start his performance. What about us?"

"Hold your positions," I replied. "It would be best if he could find the body; it would save us the trouble of searching for it."

Upon hearing this, Xia Zheng immediately gave me a thumbs up, "Master was right."

I said, "There's no need for flattery."

I stood quietly beside my mother, watching Master Lu perform his corpse-finding technique while observing the surroundings.

Although this kite looks small and unremarkable, it gave me a somewhat uneasy feeling.

Master Lu took out a compass from his pocket, dripped his blood onto it, and then muttered incantations. The compass needle began to shake.

He started bleeding right away; it seems Master Lu isn't very confident in himself.

However, his corpse-finding technique was still useful. After the compass needle swayed for a while, it pointed to the southeast of the Iris Temple.

There really is a corpse in the Yuandu Temple; we'll see if it's the body of that Yin Cai Gui (a ghostly figure associated with wealth and misfortune).

"Found it, come with me."

Master Lu held up his compass and spoke to Old Master Pei and the bodyguards who were carrying digging tools.

However, Master Lu's face looked a little pale at the moment.

I didn't say anything, and silently followed, walking at the back of the group.

Master Lu's compass stopped moving when it reached an old flower bed outside the Iris Pavilion.

The flower bed was overgrown with weeds, but a camellia stood in the center of the weeds. Unlike the white camellia in the Pei family's house, this camellia was red.

"This is it! Start digging!" Master Lu shouted excitedly to the bodyguard beside him.
