Chapter 52: A dilemma
"Hmm-"
Uncle Ghost woke up and stretched his waist, suddenly groaned, and hurriedly stroked his waist with his hand and said: "The world is indeed so delicate, pity my waist for hard work-" The two women sleeping on his left and right were awakened, and their pink cheeks showed a smile. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info such enjoyment, Uncle Ghost can't help but admire, the bed is the best sports equipment in the world.
By this time the sun had risen and was shining brightly on the floor of the room. When Uncle Ghost saw that it was time, he quickly got up and dressed, and walked out quickly, without closing the door or looking back.
Out of the Huanxi Building, through the crowded streets, Uncle Ghost hurriedly returned to the room of the inn, opened the door to see, and was stunned, only to see that there were papers all over the place in front of him, which were full of spells, and there were stacks of high stacks on the desk, which were very messy, and when the wind blew, there were a few pieces of rune paper floating on the ground, and the exaggeration was still lying on the bed and sleeping at this time.
Uncle Ghost did not wake him up, but went to the window and gently tore down the curtains, knotted them into a large cloth bag, and used them to clean up the rune paper, and then jumped out of the window and landed in the backyard of the inn, he threw the bag of rune paper in the middle of the open space, and then went to the kitchen next to it and pulled out a piece of firewood, and lit the rune paper.
"What are you doing?!" The female shopkeeper saw that there was a fire in the backyard, and hurriedly rushed over, holding an abacus in her hand and raising it, that posture was no different from raising a kitchen knife, she scolded: "You dare to burn my store's property?!" Seeing the other party's fierce look, Uncle Ghost hurriedly explained with a smiling face: "I'm really offended, I accidentally killed someone last night, and I was in a hurry, so I took the curtains of your store to wrap the evidence so that it could be destroyed." As he spoke, he took out the broken silver and handed it to the shopkeeper, saying, "Please don't expose the shopkeeper." The shopkeeper's face suddenly changed from vicious to horrified, and he lowered his voice and asked, "Killed upstairs?" Uncle Ghost nodded, and then took the firewood and pounded the fire.
"Someone! Someone's killed!! The shopkeeper believed it and panicked, and rushed out shouting, and the rest of the inn fled when they heard it. Seeing this, Uncle Ghost hurriedly jumped back upstairs, wanting to leave with a pompous, but as soon as he rolled into the window, he was dumbfounded, there was no one inside, and the door was wide open, he picked up the knife and walked out quickly, shouting and exaggerating, but he didn't hear any response, he shouted from the second floor to the first floor, and then shouted from the inn to the street, and the pedestrians all cast their eyes when they heard him shouting.
This stinky boy! Was it abducted? Uncle Ghost guessed that if this was the case, it meant that when he packed up the talisman paper, the robber was already lurking near the room, and the robber must have escaped from the front of the inn, and it was impossible to escape his eyes if he fled from the direction of the backyard.
Just when I was entangled and didn't know which direction to chase, the voice of the shopkeeper came from one end of the street, Uncle Ghost looked, only to see that she was coming with a team of patrols, Uncle Ghost couldn't find any traces of exaggeration for a while, and couldn't bear to leave like this, but he didn't want to fight in this fishing bridge village full of memories, thought about it for a while, and finally grabbed a horse and fled quickly.
At noon, an ox cart was walking down the path in the valley with hay, and the driver was leisurely leading the oxen ropes, as if he was not in a hurry.
Suddenly a person sat up in the shaking hay, which was an exaggeration! He rubbed his sleepy eyes, looked around, and asked, "Where is this?" He thought it was Uncle Ghost driving the ox cart, but when he looked back, he was suddenly frightened and exclaimed, "Who are you?!" ”
The coachman turned around, looked at the pompous smile and said, "It's me, don't you recognize me?" He said and put his index finger across his upper lip to cover his beard, and when he looked at it pompously, he exclaimed, "Brother porcelain! How do you ......" I saw that at this time, the porcelain brother was disguised as a coachman, dressed in shabby coarse linen clothes, and his hair was just tied up casually, quite messy, his face was dirty, and his upper lip was also pasted with a beard.
Porcelain smiled: "It's nothing...... I just want to change my outfit and go to the countryside to have fun. When he heard this, he asked curiously, "Village? What to do in those places? Porcelain thought for a while and said with a smile: "Riding a bull, fighting a, fishing for fish, catching mice, there are a lot of fun." The corners of his pompous mouth twitched, and he frowned: "It's boring." He grew up in the palace since he was a child, and later has been living in Eagle Peak, he has long been fed up with red tape, and naturally feels that the countryside is comfortable and free, but the exaggeration is growing up in the poor countryside, and he naturally feels that the bustling city is good, and there are thousands of purples and thousands of reds.
When he was speechless, the porcelain suddenly frowned, his eyes were angry and fearful, it turned out that a person appeared in front of him, standing in the middle of the road, blocking the way, he was wearing a black robe, one side was dyed with a big "hemp" word, exaggerated look, and guessed that the person was also from the Eagle Palace, except for them, who would wear such an ugly robe.
Sure enough, the man waited for the ox cart to approach, then squatted down and said, "Subordinate Ma, meet the deputy hall master." "The pompous was stunned when he heard it, it turned out that the porcelain brother was the deputy hall master of the Eagle Palace! And porcelain didn't pay attention, still drove the ox forward, wanted to bypass, how did Ma actually stand up and move to block the way, porcelain angrily said: "You dare to stop me? Get out of the way! ”
Ma hurriedly said: "The subordinates don't dare, the subordinates just act on orders." Although he was respectful on his lips, he did not see humility in his hands, and when he saw that the deputy hall master ignored him and continued to drive the cattle, he immediately thrust his sword into the ground with both hands, and suddenly thunder and lightning were extravagant, and there was a sound.
The big buffalo jumped up by the electricity, mooed and turned around and left, porcelain saw this and hurriedly grabbed the cow rope, almost thrown off the driver's seat, even sitting on the pompous grass in the back compartment felt a tingle in the buttocks, almost couldn't hold back the feces and urine, I couldn't help but marvel that this guy is really as good as his name, there are enough numb people. He had not gone a few steps when he saw someone coming, and the man stopped on his horse, and even the way back was blocked.
"Uncle Ghost!" Exaggerated and rejoicing. The person who rode in the way was Uncle Ghost, he looked at the porcelain in disguise, and then at the hemp blocking the other end, thought for a while and said, "Dare to ask the deputy hall master, where is this going to take the pompous?" ”
Porcelain originally walked the mountain trail with exaggeration, thinking that Uncle Ghost would chase along the prosperous road of Shuizhai Wharf, but he didn't expect him to pursue here, blocked at both ends for a while, there was no way out, porcelain was obviously a little overwhelmed, and then questioned by Uncle Ghost, so he was unreasonable, and said hard: "It's rare to recover from a big injury, I'll take him to celebrate and play, can't you?!" ”
"Of course." Uncle Ghost flipped off his horse, took two steps closer and continued: "It's just that we want to send the pompous back to the city now, and we can also celebrate on the way back to the city, so it's not wrong." Porcelain's eyes became cold, and he pulled out a machete from the back of his seat and said, "What if I say no?" "Uncle Ghost and Ma saw it, and couldn't help but tighten their brows, although the deputy hall master was castrated by the hall master Most of the real power, in many cases there is no right to give orders, but the noble identity of porcelain is here, if he comes hard, Uncle Ghost and Ma are helpless.
The atmosphere suddenly reached a stalemate, and the three of them were motionless, while the pompous one became surprised and asked, "Brother porcelain, why don't you let me go back to Tiecheng?" Porcelain was asked like this, and was stunned for a moment, and then stammered: "I...... Where is it that you are not allowed to return to Tiecheng, just ...... Just wanted to take you out there ......."
Uncle Ghost saw that two of the three sentences in the porcelain's words were about playing, and his eyes began to show disdain, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that this matter was not simple, and saw that there was a tea house on the side of the road, so he ordered: "Xiao Ma, you take the pompous to the tea house first, I have something I want to talk to the deputy hall master." ”
Hearing the exaggeration, he couldn't help but shudder, only to see Ma Ying yes and come over, and couldn't help but quickly move back to avoid the other party. Seeing this, Uncle Ghost said, "Don't worry, Xiao Ma is also his own person." The pompous looked back at Uncle Ghost, and then at Ma who had walked to the side of the car, only to see that he nodded to himself to show that he had no malice. Exaggerated hesitated for a moment, but finally jumped out of the car and followed Ma into the tea house.
When Uncle Ghost saw that they were far away, he approached the ox cart and asked, "Do you know some secrets?" Porcelain was stunned for a moment before saying, "Yes...... But I can't say...... You know, wing her ......"
"The hall master has clear rewards and punishments, although you are her own brother, but the palace rules are strict, and leaking secrets is a capital crime." Uncle Ghost saw that the porcelain wanted to speak and stopped, so he grabbed it and said. Porcelain was even more frightened, with her sister's femme fatale, if she committed such a capital crime, even if she was not sentenced to death, I am afraid that she would have to cut off her tongue. The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became, and he couldn't help jumping out of the ox cart and said in a panic: "She has already committed a lot of evil consequences, and now she is ...... In short, you can't send pompous back to the city...... Besides, exaggeration is innocent......"
Uncle Ghost turned his back to the tea house, looked at the mountain peaks in the distance, sighed, and said, "I'm more worried than you. The lord of the hall ordered to send him back, but if I don't carry it out, someone else will carry it out, so it's better for me to send him back than this. Porcelain felt very reasonable after hearing this, but still felt that it was very inappropriate to send the pompousness back, and just opened his mouth to say "but" and was robbed by the ghost uncle: "In the past, all your expenses for clothing, food, housing and transportation outside came from the Eagle Palace, if you leave the Eagle Palace, I am afraid you will not even be able to take care of yourself, let alone flee with a person who has no other skills except for delivering food." ”
This made the porcelain think deeply, he was silent for a long time, he knew that although he also knew some spells and swordsmanship, but compared with those heroes who fought the righteous hoe to help the weak, it was really insignificant. To put it bluntly, if people can't be self-reliant, they still talk about a fart hoe to help the weak.
Seeing that he was silent, Uncle Ghost said, "I have already taught him the Mountain Cold Curse, which is the spell that summons a huge soul weapon, so that he can move the rescue troops in times of danger and not be slaughtered like before." Porcelain was surprised when he heard this: "That spell is at the cost of three years of life, can he summon it?" ”
"Yes." Uncle Ghost replied affirmatively, "I left the Lotus Boat Garden yesterday and was summoned with his blood. Porcelain was even more surprised, and asked, "How is that possible, didn't you say that his gnawing spell began to attack, and he wouldn't be able to survive for three years at most?" ”
Now it was Uncle Ghost's turn to think deeply, he thought for a while, and then said: "One possibility is that in the case of a life span of less than three years, there is no cost, and it can be summoned infinitely; Another possibility is ......" Uncle Ghost retracted his gaze from afar, looked at the porcelain and said solemnly: "Exaggeration can no longer be regarded as a person." ”
Porcelain suddenly felt creepy and asked, "What do you mean?" What is not a person? He really can't understand that he is not a human being, he is still talking and laughing vividly.
Uncle Ghost recalled the words of Xue Chu's mother-in-law at that time, and said slightly: "You can understand him as a half-corpse, I don't know very well." The witch doctor said that he was already a dead man, and even if he woke up, he would inevitably become a corpse within three years, and now he is still sober and sane, and it is estimated that the witch doctor's spell is working. ”
"There is such a miracle in the world...... porcelain has never heard such a horrific thing, and it is difficult to understand and accept it for a while.
Uncle Ghost nodded, and said to himself: "The living still have a lifespan, but what about the dead? ”
