Chapter 240: Breaking into the Mountain

I sat next to Si Ruo and whispered, "What the hell is that woman?"

Si Ruo said: "It should be a kind of resentful spirit, right? Some look like resentful women, but they don't look like it, and I can't tell what it is." ”

Actually, I already knew what it was. There are records about ghosts in the collection of books left by my father, but my father also commented on the "Hundred Ghosts": There are nine false and one true ghosts in the world, and those who have not seen it must not be believed to be true.

In the "Hundred Ghost Records", there was a kind of resentful spirit called the Fat Girl. Legend has it that the fat girls are infatuated women who are abandoned by others, and whenever they think of their lingering sympathy with the negative person, they will continue to bite their bodies until they eat only one head left.

It is precisely because they have made a vow with each other to "tie the knot and be of the same heart" before their deaths, so their grievances are all turned into hair, the longer the hair, the deeper their resentment, hair is not only their grievances, but also their weapons to hunt down and kill the wrong.

Xu You probably knew what was hidden in this Ding Array, so he would make Xiang Lin into an existence similar to a resentful ghost, either preparing to use Xiang Lin's resentment to lure the daughter and take her outside the Ding Array to kill, or he wanted the hair girl to treat Xiang Lin as a kind of person and let Xiang Lin find a safe passage for them.

I was silent for a moment before I said, "What do you mean that woman has to marry us?"

Si Ruo said in a low voice: "We are husband and wife when we become relatives, if you don't pay it back, I will definitely have a grudge against you in my heart, even if that resentment is just a little, she will find you through resentment." ”

"The ghost can cross the two worlds of yin and yang, and she can find you from the underworld, and she can not be limited by geography. Si Ruo said in a low voice, "I think that's why she has to let us get married!"

"Hmm. I nodded subconsciously.

Si Ruo lowered his head and said, "Then we have to ...... Do you want to get married......? If, the fat girl comes tomorrow morning and finds that we haven't done anything, will it ......?"

Si Ruo's voice was not much louder than the sound of mosquitoes and flies, and if it weren't for my excellent ear, I wouldn't have been able to hear what she was saying. But what can I do now?

Pretending not to hear anything? That would hurt Si Ruo's self-esteem.

If you do what the fat girl arranged? I really can't do it. After all, I don't have the kind of affection between men and women for Siruo, and this kind of thing is not as simple as shaking hands and hugging.

I gently patted Si Ruo's shoulder: "Wait for me to think about it...... There will be a way. ”

I said there would be a way, but I didn't even know what the way was!

Si Ruo said in a low voice: "It would be good if I lived on this island all the time. It's just the two of us, like the ancients, who live quietly and quietly like the ancients, without thinking about any grievances or rivers and lakes, right?"

"Now is not the time for me to be quiet!" I was telling the truth. There's still a lot of work to do, and I can't be quiet, and I can't be quiet.

Si Ruo leaned on my shoulder: "Then let me be quiet for a while......"

I let Si Ruo lean on my shoulder, but my mind was spinning in every detail since we went up the mountain.

In a flash of inspiration in my mind, I pulled out the long knife with a "poof". Si Ruo was suddenly startled by the flash of knife light in front of him: "You are ......"

"There's something wrong with this knife. "I put the long knife in front of the candle flame, and after looking at it from top to bottom several times, I turned the scabbard and struck it a few times, and a layer of red powder soon fell from the scabbard.

"I see. I couldn't help but sneer.

Si Ruo hurried over: "What did you say?"

I pointed to the powder on the knife and said, "Someone has done something to my knife." He should be a Danshi who is even smarter than Xu You. ”

I just plunged a long knife into the head of a haired girl in Yaoding, and she was instantly burned to ashes by the flames. I didn't think much of it at the time, I just thought it was a natural reaction after the fat girl was killed.

When I was forced to step on the copper tripod to escape, I just gambled that the fat girl was afraid of fire, but there was an unexpected effect. At that time, I was suspicious that something was wrong with my knife.

The friction between metals can produce sparks, and it can also produce a certain amount of heat, but it certainly doesn't allow a long knife made of steel to the point where it can ignite other objects directly like a soldering iron.

It's just that I haven't had time to look at my knife. Now it seems that my long knife was able to catch fire because of the powder in its scabbard.

The powder must have been the work of Danshi, and this man must be far from me, otherwise he wouldn't have been unknowingly stuffing something into my scabbard.

Si Ruo was surprised: "Even if there is still a Danshi here, it won't change anything, right?"

"Not true. I shook my head and said, "There are still people here, which means that he also wants to go to the Nine Heavens of Dan Island." Moreover, that person is not with Xu You all the way, and the two of them are completely in a competitive relationship. Xu You was in a hurry, and that person was even more anxious. Looks like I'm going to have to find a way to put some pressure on him. ”

As I spoke, I divided the powder from the long knife into two parts, sprinkled one of them on the blade, and slashed it at the stone table. As a little spark burst out from under my sword, the long knife in my hand turned crimson as if it had been tempered by fire.

Without waiting for the burning heat on the knife to recede, I slashed my backhand at the black hair that was locked in the hole. Layers of hair burst into flames, starting from the middle to the sides. The roar of the beautiful head followed: "Do you want to die?"

I put my long knife on the edge of the hole and whispered, "That friend, if you ask me to do something for you, you must tell me where your body is, and if your body has been eaten by yourself, where can I find your body?"

The beautiful head said sharply: "You are Wang Zhan's son, he will not tell you anything?"

I said in a deep voice, "If I had a son, I wouldn't have told him everything. ”

The beauty outside couldn't help but be silent, and after a while she said, "If, I tell you, my name is Diao Chan, do you believe it?"

I couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

Although the human head outside is extremely beautiful, I can't believe that she is Diao Chan.

Diao Chan was originally a highly controversial figure. First of all, there is no record of Diao Chan in the official history. According to today's research, Diao Chan's real name is Ren Hongchang, who entered the palace at the age of 15 and was in charge of a kind of ornament worn on the hat of officials in the Han Dynasty: mink tail and cicada feathers, so people call her Diao Chan. The prototype of Diao Chan in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is likely to be as Luo Guanzhong wrote, a servant girl of Wang Yun.

As for Diao Chan's whereabouts after Lu Bu's death, it has also become a mystery. Some people say that Diao Chan was included in Tongquetai by Cao Cao, and some people say that Guan Yu was rewarded by Cao Cao, Guan Yu was not fascinated by beauty, and beheaded Diao Chan, and there was "Guan Yu Cutting Diao Chan under the Moon" in later operas.

I said in a deep voice: "You are probably joking, right? I will treat you as Diao Chan, where did the resentment on your body come from? From Dong Zhuo? He was killed by Lu Bu a long time ago. From Lu Bu, Lu Bu refused to break through for you, and as a result, he was hanged in the White Gate Tower, will you be angry with him?"

Diao Chan said coldly: "This is not something you should ask, you only need to be responsible for retrieving my body." ”

I laughed, "You've got to give me an approximate location, right?"

Diao Chan said: "I only know that Wang Zhan said that my body is hidden in the beauty mound, and I don't know what place it is." ”

I said coldly: "You don't know this, you don't know that, let me find your body." You might as well kill me, so as not to cause so much trouble. ”

Diao Chan sneered: "Where Wang Zhan can find it, I believe you can find it too." You just need to pay attention to it, do you need to say more?"

I was silent for a moment before I said, "I've got to prove that you're Diao Chan first, right?"

Diao Chan's voice suddenly turned cold: "How do you want to prove it?"

I quietly spread the palm of my hand holding the powder, and the dark red powder suddenly flowed down my blade to the tip of the knife, covering the entire blade in a short moment.

I quietly said to the outside of the cave: "Legend has it that Diao Chan has no earlobes. I want to see if you have earlobes. ”

According to legend, the four beauties of "sinking fish and geese, closing the moon and shy flowers" each have certain defects, and the defect of Diao Chan is that the ears are small and there are no earlobes. In order to hide his shortcomings, Diao Chan invented earrings. Legend has it that wearing exquisite jewelry and earrings is even more amorous in the moonlight, like a fairy dancing in the sky and falling into the dust.

Diao Chan outside the cave suddenly said unhappily: "Don't you think your request is too unreasonable?"

"I don't think so. I said in a deep voice, "It's a matter of two people's lives, am I wrong to want to determine your identity?"

Diao Chan held back his anger and said, "Okay, I'll show you." If you see it and then push it back, don't blame me for being ruthless. ”

I watched the layers of hair locked in the entrance of the cave open, and turned my head to Si Ruo and shouted, "Daughter-in-law, bring me the candle." ”

Si Ruo, who had already picked up the candle, shook her palm slightly at this moment, and the red wax oil dripped on her hand.

I was taken aback.

If all the hair in the door is opened, Diao Chan will immediately see me standing in the doorway with a knife, and she will guess what I want to do, no matter how stupid she is. The only chance I could make a move was the moment when my hair was about to open. Whether or not you can ignite the powder on the knife in the shortest time depends on this candle flame.

If Si Ruo's movements are a little slower, I will fall short. I looked at Si Ruojian, and she also walked quickly in front of me, but the candle flame in her hand was also blown out on the spot by the air flow she brought up.

The whole cave was plunged into darkness again, and my heart sank.
