Chapter 42: Funny Picture of the Ghost Servant
More than 600 years ago, Fu Xue Gongzi made a hedge hairpin by himself, and then took the hedge hairpin as a ghost field, planted a ghost moon fence, and at the age of fifteen and the ceremony, Fu Xue gave this hairpin as a gift to the moon fence, and personally inserted the hairpin for it.
"The white hosta on the ceremony, is it actually this hairpin?" Luan Chang said in surprise.
He and Ah Dao's thoughts obviously coincide.
Ah Tao suddenly thought of something, and had an idea: "Since this fence hairpin was made by the son in the past, why don't you go back and report this matter to the son?"
Luan Chang thought for a moment and nodded: "Yes." ”
Ah Tao flipped through the bamboo slips back and forth, and saw the words "Volume 5, Vulgar Things" marked in the lower right corner, so he asked Tao Weng who was standing on the side: "Dare to ask Tao Weng, how many chapters are there in "Ghost Search Records"?"
Tao Weng replied: "The Ghost Search Record records the ten thousand ghosts in the world from ancient times to the present, and there are more than tens of thousands of volumes. New ghosts are born, and the chapters are added, which is impossible to count. ”
Ah Tao looked interested: "Then the chapter about the moon fence must also be in this book?"
Tao Weng nodded: "Naturally." ”
"Then I might borrow the chapter of the Moon Fence?" asked Ina expectantly.
Tao Weng looked at Ah Tao with a strange face, and after a while, he pulled up a stiff smile: "I don't borrow it." ”
Because the case of the disappearance of the dancing girl involved the old thing of the moon fence and the hairpin, Luan Chang became more and more cautious, he and Ah Tao quickly left the ghost courtyard, the two separated in front of the gate, Ah Tao got the order of Luan Chang, and went back to Xiangfu alone to report to Xiangyu and ask about the fence hairpin.
Ah Tao stepped into the gate of Xiangfu quickly, and just after taking a few steps, he suddenly noticed a trace of unusual aura.
The pavilions, the winding corridors, and the flowers and plants planted all around, all of them seem to have just been washed by a rain, and they are refreshed and full of vitality.
Ah Tao slowly walked towards the inner courtyard step by step, and with each step, he could clearly hear the soft touch and friction sound of his feet stepping on the bluestone road.
It's so quiet......
It's so quiet that it's unusually eerie.
Adaden became alert and went into a state of readiness.
In the past, every time I came back, there were always one or two scattered servants or maidservants passing back and forth, but now, except for one servant who was guarding the gate, there was no one to be seen.
Ghostly!
She could smell the myriad of ghostly breaths that remained in the air!
Ah Tao moved his nose again.
Also, extremely faint ......... Bloody gas!
Ah Dao's heart tightened.
A miserable scream suddenly broke out of the air and came from the direction of the Jade Disturbance Courtyard!
Ah Dao's expression changed greatly, and in a flash, he turned into a red light and disappeared into the air.
After a while, Ah Tao arrived at the entrance of the bamboo gate outside the small courtyard of the study of the Jade Disturbance Courtyard, the bamboo wind was blowing all around, and the bloody breath in the air became more and more obvious, and Ah Dao's hairs stood up.
Son!
As soon as Ah Tao stepped into the hospital, a powerful ghostly aura suddenly came out from behind him, Ah Tao quickly recited a word silently in his mouth, and the blood-red word "kill" immediately appeared on the palm of his right hand.
Ah Tao flashed on one side, raised his right hand high, and turned around to slap down on the forehead of the powerful ghost, but halfway through the palm, his elbow hit a hard object, and then he heard an exclamation from the other party.
"It's over, it's all over, I just bought it from outside!"
Ah Dao's right hand move suddenly stopped in mid-air.
There was a scattered sound of "crackling", and I saw that the dim sum from several famous pastry shops in Yin'an fell to the ground in front of Ah Tao at this time, and the dim sum was still steaming a little.
Originally, Ah Tao thought that he was going to sneak up on him from behind, but at this time, he was staring at the dim sum with a depressed face, and kept repeating "It's over, it's over" in his mouth.
The ghost in front of him originally had a crying face, and at this time, his face was sad, and his face was almost twisted, and he was bitter.
Its face is thin, but its body is unexpectedly fat, from head to toe is a Xiangfu subordinate's dress, perhaps the size of the clothes is smaller, the clothes do not completely wrap his body, the waist reveals a large piece of fat, it looks a little awkward and funny, at this time the robe has already been soaked, the fabric is close to the skin, a sweaty and tired appearance.
There was no murderous intent around it......
Ah Tao had doubts in his heart.
There was a messy footstep and busy sound in his ears, Ah Tao looked up, and the whole person was instantly frozen.
The picture in front of her that made her suddenly brighten up was something that Ah Tao had never seen before, only to see several wild ghosts with different appearances, all dressed in the robes of the people of Xiangfu, scattered in the small courtyard surrounded by bamboo on three sides......
Do chores!
Or pruning bamboo branches with scissors, or lying on the ground to carefully clean up the bright green moss all over the ground, or using a wet handkerchief to wipe the bamboo leaves one by one, it looks more serious and careful than the usual people in Xiangfu.
When she entered the main entrance just now, she saw a scene of the newly renovated courtyard, which I thought was their masterpiece.
Ah Tao looked at the position near the door of the study, a few short-sized one-eyed and three-legged ghosts were stacking Arhats, they built a ladder with their bodies, and the top ghosts wiped the beams of the study at the heights, at this time the bottom ghosts couldn't help but sneeze, and a long series of ghosts supporting its body below staggered and almost fell down.
And in a corner ahead, a crested ghost was squatting in front of a tea stove with his mouth open and closed, blowing very hard at the vent at the bottom of the tea stove, and there was a pot of tea sitting on the stove, and the water had not yet come out.
Ah Tao turned around, looking through the layers of swaying bamboo forests, looking into the depths, there were also faintly visible figures of several powerful ghosts shuttling through them, busy with other chores.
There was another scream in his ears, which was the voice that Ah Tao heard just now.
Ah Tao hurriedly looked at a bamboo forest in the courtyard of the study, but saw a ghost wiping the bamboo leaves, looking at his fingers accidentally cut by the bamboo leaves and screaming, and several ghosts doing the same chores next to him stood by with a gloating face, and made fun of it from time to time.
The blood that flowed from the severed fingers of the ghost, the bloody breath that wafted out of the air......
It's exactly the same as what Ah Tao smelled just now.
It turned out to be a false alarm.
Caring about it is chaotic, and he didn't carefully discern that this bloody qi was owned by ghosts and not humans.
An extremely slight sound of the window opening sounded, and the hidden window of the study was pushed open, revealing the smiling face of the tanuki slave and a scene in the study.
In that scene, Xiangyu was wearing a semi-open white jade-colored robe, with a loose bun on his head, and a white hosta pinned to the bun, and was sitting on the couch with a leisurely expression, playing against a huge wild ghost, who was sweating all over his forehead at this time, staring at the chess surface with an anxious expression, scratching his ears and cheeks from time to time, looking like he was about to lose chess.
There is also a wild ghost near Xiangyu, with a pair of horns on both sides of his forehead, and he is half-squatting on the side of the couch with a respectful attitude, holding a small wooden spoon in his hand, adding spices to the white jade incense burner that Xiangyu is accustomed to, occasionally curiously stretching out his long tongue, peeking at the two people who are playing against each other, and while they are not paying attention, they secretly taste the spices, thinking that the taste of the spices is not good, and the tip of the ghost's tongue has just been stained with a little incense, so he frowns tightly and smacks his tongue again and again.
The corners of Ah Dao's mouth unconsciously curved a faint arc, and in this situation, only one thought popped up in her mind:
"Funny picture of the ghost servant. ”
