Chapter XVI
Feng Lianzheng's tongue had been withdrawn into his mouth, and his appearance was no different from that when he was alive. www.biquge.info The moonlight could not leave his shadow, his face was desolate, and his heels did not touch the ground. "Please also ask the girl to tell Master Du and Miss Du to stop using that pen."
Fu Yan told her that if she goes to a soul in a year, the loss of the body is equivalent to the loss of the container that holds the soul, but Feng Lianzheng's ghost is still goneβshe asked, "You can't be reincarnated, are you trapped in that pen?" β
Feng Lian nodded solemnly, "In the eight years of the pen, the wolf pen kept changing owners, and no less than twenty people died due to insatiable greed. I've seen too much of it, and I don't want them to end up like this. β
Changsheng was terrified, no wonder the ghosts I saw just now were going to fill up the spare space. They are all people who have died after using that wolf howl pen in the past eight years.
Feng Lian said, "It's because I'm greedy, I want to take that pen for myself, and I want to borrow it to have no shortage of food and clothing, and marry Miss Du Jia, and I will die if I get worse." I don't complain, but the other ghosts are different, the resentment is too heavy, and they can't be reincarnated, so they are angry. Many of them have turned into evil spirits, and they come out at night to make trouble. β
She thought of the ghost who gnawed Zhou Hengzhi's neck just now, as if treating him as a very delicious snack. Zhou Hengzhi also used that pen, "Will Miss Du's husband also be in danger?" β
Feng Lian answered the question and regretted, "The girl still remembers Feng, and Feng is really grateful." In vain, I read the books of the sages and sages, and in the end I was ruined, and I really didn't deserve the girl's worship. There are too many ghosts in the house, I can help the girl last time, and I don't know if I can help the girl next time, so get out of here as soon as possible. β
Changsheng asked, "What can I do to help you?" β
"The girl can't help. I have not repaid the kindness of Master Du when I was alive, please tell them my words, I am grateful. β
After Feng Lianzheng finished speaking, he bowed solemnly to her, and then a cold wind blew, blowing so that Changsheng couldn't open his eyes, and when the wind stopped, Feng Lianzheng was gone.
Sima Luming couldn't see Feng Lianzheng, nor could he hear the nonsense, only Changsheng was talking to himself, and he knew that his cultivation was not enough. Sima Luming looked at Changsheng, although he didn't show it on his face, he was surprised that she had a pair of eyes that could see through yin and yang.
She never mentioned that she had such skills.
Sima Luming asked, "Senior sister has been able to see the ghosts of the underworld since she was a child?" β
Changsheng thought about it, Tianjia Village is just a poor and remote place, and it should not be regarded as a beautiful place, but it is also strange, it is impossible to say that no one in a village has died of illness for more than ten years. But she has been living there, and it was not until Tian Bao died that she saw the so-called ghost for the first time.
So she didn't know if she could see it since she was a child, or if she could see it all of a sudden.
Changsheng shook his head.
Sima Luming didn't ask anymore, and went back to tell Fu Yan about the matter.
Fu Wei ordered Zhao Changsheng and Sima Luming to burn the thread and straw man that had cast the spell, and he looked out the window while plucking out his ears. Changsheng thought that he might be pondering a countermeasure, so he didn't bother.
In the morning, a maid came to knock on the door in a hurry, because she was panicked and stammered when she spoke, Changsheng listened for a long time before he understood what she meant. said that a person died in the house, and the subordinate reported Du Yuanwai and then went to the yamen to report to the official.
Now the official messenger has come and asked for all the people in the palace to be summoned to the hall to ask for a confession.
When they rushed to the hall, they happened to see someone carrying the deceased down, and she glanced at it, it was the entourage who accompanied Du Yuan to Kunlun Mountain that day. The attendant's eyes bulged and his mouth was wide open, as if he had been greatly frightened before he died.
He held the wolf pen in his hand, and he held it tightly. Two able-bodied men had to work together to break his hand before he could take the pen off.
The officials took turns to ask for confessions, but their attitudes were a little perfunctory and not careful. Later, one of the officials said that the dead subordinate had no external injuries, as if he was frightened and scared himself to death, but he didn't really die like this, and he had to be carried back and wait for him to see it.
But because it doesn't look like someone has been murdered, he will ask so casually. This Du Yuanwai is also a local figure with a head and a face, and his son died not long ago and he was killed, which is always not good, and he can't make a big fuss. They casually ask a few words, and it is good to go back, and there is something to say and the return from the top.
Du Yuanwai asked someone to give the officials some "tea money" and sent them away. His face looked haggard, and he couldn't see what bad things happened in anyone's house one after another.
Fu Yan said, "Let me bring the pen back, otherwise it will be more than that attendant who will die." β
Du Yuanwai said in fear, "Could it be that he is also ......" The attendant once served his son, and it was also the man who went to him to tell the secret, saying that his son had behaved strangely since he came back from picking up the pen, and it seemed that there was always the sound of the girl's family laughing and playing in the room at night.
Xu also knew the purpose of this money, and he had the idea of covetousness in his heart. I wanted to commit theft, but I suffered from it.
Fu Yan changed his usual sloppy and decadent appearance, and looked serious, "The things in the pen are not something you can handle, Young Master Du and that person are examples." If you insist on leaving the pen, you are incurring the death of yourself. β
"I was forced to do this too." Du Yuanwai told the truth about his wife's illness and said his plan. Although they knew about it a long time ago, they didn't want to know that they had done something to steal chickens and dogs at night, and they stuck it outside the room and stuck it against the window to eavesdrop and peek.
Fu Yan said, "Fake can never become true, even if you draw a young master Du and temporarily appease the sentimentality of your wife, do you have to use such a method to deceive yourself in the long run." Then I really can't get rid of it. β
Du Yuanwai didn't say a word, thought for a long time, slowly took the pen, handed it to Fu Yan, and said in a determined tone, "What the Taoist chief said is right, if the fake is not true, if I rely on this evil thing, I will really bring about my own destruction." β
Fu Yan took the pen, and said that he had done two Dharma services for Du Gongzi yesterday evening and at night, and said that if he did one more one more for Du Gongzi tonight, he would be able to do this thing, and he would not bother in the house tomorrow.
Du Yuanwai thanked him again and again.
After returning to the room, he kept holding the wolf's pen and looking at it. Changsheng asked, "Master, is there really no way to let the ghosts trapped inside enter reincarnation?" β
Fu Yan turned his pen and played, "If this thing can lock the soul, it must not be a mortal thing." There are people outside the world, and there are people outside the sky, and you can't say in one sentence that there is really no way to die, but you can't do anything as a teacher. The way I can think of is what I said, find a peach box and seal it inside, at least to prevent it from harming people again. Anyway, get the things back first, maybe your master can't say if he has a way. β
Fu Yan threw the pen out, Sima Luming subconsciously reached out to catch it, but the pen touched his fingertips, and a faint stinging pain penetrated his fingers.
He reacted very quickly and threw the pen away.
Fu Yan was very satisfied with his performance, "It's a teachable child." "I can already feel the evil spirit on the evil things and avoid the evil spirits. I'm afraid that this pen will pick people, especially those who lack concentration and are easily shaken, and their hearts are easy to breed greed.
Changsheng bent down and picked up the pen, wondering if it was time to put it away, if the master threw it around again, if it rolled into the crack of the cabinet, it would be difficult to take it.
"Girl, don't your hands hurt?" β
Changsheng stared at his fingers and replied something that made Fu Yan cry and laugh, "My hand is not injured." β
Sima Luming remembered that she had also held the pen in her hand for a long time when she was in the Jade Void Sect, this evil thing had taken so many lives, and the evil spirit was so heavy that it had already begun to overflow. Ordinary people can't feel it, but if they come into contact with it, they will always be more or less contaminated.
Just like Zhou Hengzhi, it was already dark in the hall.
But he looked at Changsheng but there was nothing to do.
"Dao Chief." Zhou Hengzhi knocked on the door a few times and called outside. Changsheng went to open the door, Zhou Hengzhi was very polite, and after thanking her, he came in and said that he wanted to discuss something with Fu Yan.
Fu Yan put the pen on the table, and Zhou Hengzhi deliberately glanced at Changsheng and Sima Luming, but unfortunately Changsheng didn't look at people's eyes, and it was still like a wooden pestle in place.
Fu Yan laughed, he stupid apprentice. "Neither of my apprentices is a mouthy person."
Zhou Hengzhi smiled, "I heard that my father-in-law has decided to hand over the pen to the Taoist chief to dispose of, and he will leave for his return tomorrow." β
Fu said, "I have been taken care of by the government for the past few days." β
"Thank you for running around for my brother-in-law, and my brother-in-law can rest in peace. The Taoist is a master of the world, and he may not take money in his eyes. I can tell that the Michicho seems to like to have a drink or two. specially asked someone to find an amethyst gourd to fill the Taoist with wine, and asked the Taoist to smile. β
He knew that he didn't come to give a gift on purpose, but that he was still so generous and gave such a valuable gift. He smiled, "If you have anything to say, please say it directly." β
"I'm also a scholar, and I never believed in strange things in the past. But after a while, I also have some faith. It's just that I also have a shallow opinion, and I think that there is no absolute good and evil in the world, just like this pen, it only depends on whether the person who uses it to do evil or good things. β
Fu Yan raised his eyebrows and smiled, "There is some truth in that. β
Zhou Hengzhi discussed, "So I want to make a deal with the Taoist in private, the Taoist is a cultivator, and it won't be of much use for you to bring the pen back, so it's better to sell it to me, and you can make a price." β
Fu shouted the price all over the sky, and casually shouted an exaggerated number. Zhou Hengzhi paused for a moment, and Fu Wei smiled disrespectfully, "It's just a little joke, does Du Yuanwai know?" β
"It's just a trivial matter, and you don't have to alarm your father-in-law. It's just that you and I make a private deal, and the Taoist chief is unwilling, and I don't force it. Zhou Hengzhi seemed to be full of sincerity, and after finishing his words, he repeatedly emphasized that he would never be forced.
Fu Yan didn't refuse in person, but said, "Let me think about it for a night, and I'll reply tomorrow before I leave, is it okay?" β
Zhou Hengzhi agreed, Changsheng sent him out of the door, thinking about why Zhou Hengzhi wanted to buy the pen back without Du Yuanwai, she guessed, "Isn't it still worried about Mrs. Du's body, do you still want to use that method." β
If so, it is also out of filial piety.
Sima Lu said, "He just had a crooked idea by himself." β
Changsheng felt that Zhou Hengzhi was gentle and polite, and he was very sincere when he spoke, not like he was sanctimonious. "But didn't he also know that it was ominous?"
Fu Yan said meaningfully, "Do you think everyone is as stupid as you, people's hearts are complicated." I'm afraid that there is something to be done in heaven, and I can't live if I do it myself. β
