Chapter 112: Making a Deal with Ghosts

"If it's too peaceful, we won't go. Let's go! ”

The corners of Octagon's lips twitched, and he said "yes" slowly, and climbed into the car. With a flick of the whip, the carriage rushed towards the ancient locust forest. This is not a good errand for the immortals to be a groom. It's hard to make it difficult to run anywhere in the future. Thinking of this, Octagon couldn't help but shiver again.

The journey from Fengfu to Guhuai Forest is not too long, and there is nothing to say along the way. The carriage stopped smoothly outside the ancient acacia forest, and Octagonal jumped off the carriageway: "Six girls, seven sons, it's time to get there." ”

The curtain flashed, and Su Jinge jumped down. Octagon hurriedly stepped forward to lift the curtain and let Qin Yunqian, who was behind, get out of the car.

"The sixth girl wants to come down and give an order, where can you do it yourself."

Su Jinge was noncommittal, observed Lin Zi and said, "Let's go in and take a look, you are waiting here." ”

Octagon was unwilling, and immediately answered yes and drove the carriage to the other side of the road. Try to stay away from the ancient locust forest. Qin Yunqian shook his head and said with a smile: "If you are really scared, go to the front and wait first." ”

Octagon nodded busily and said, "Thank you Seventh Prince, thank you Seventh Prince." The little one drove the car not far in front and watched from there. As soon as the girl and the son came out, the younger one immediately rushed over. ”

The carriage slowly moved away, and Qin Yunqian stepped into the forest with his feet raised, letting go of his divine sense and searching.

As the sun set, a shadow flashed out of the trees and fell in front of Qin Yunqian with a thud. She raised a pitiful face, and her lips lifted as if she was about to say something. It's a pity that she hasn't waited for her to speak. A peach branch whipped with a force she had never seen before.

She still had that look on her face, and then it turned into a puff of green smoke and dissipated.

Su Jinge caught up from behind and sighed: "Seventh Brother Qin, you are really ruthless. Ask her where her nest is. ”

Qin Yunqian said: "It's okay, just look for it again." These ghosts are different from the wilderness, so we should be more cautious. ”

After the sun had completely set, the two of them discovered a haunted place at the same time. It was a thick old tree, with a trunk almost hollow, from which the ghostly aura emanated.

Su Jinge raised his hand and took out the Seven Stars with the Moon Slash. Purple light hit the tree. Shengsheng split the ancient tree into a piece of charcoal.

The corners of Qin Yunqian's mouth twitched, and he said, "Little Liu, don't you think that you can hack those ghosts to death in this way?" ”

Su Jinge nodded: "Didn't you say that ghosts are afraid of thunder?" ”

"Who said that?"

Su Jinge said with a shy face: "I forgot which jade slip I saw it from." ”

Qin Yunqian raised his forehead, "It's just that ghosts are afraid of thunder." You have to chop at the ghosts. ”

Su Jinge stopped thinking about Qin Yunqian's words. Under the divine sense, several ghosts fled quickly in all directions. And among the coke. The ghostly gas turned into solid black smoke, billowing out from under the coke and rising towards the night sky. This moment. A thick resentment rolled up in the forest.

The one who escaped was only a little ghost, and the one who stayed behind was the great disaster. The two glanced at each other, Qin Yunqian flew up and intercepted the black smoke, while Su Jinge attacked and cut off the black smoke's retreat.

The black smoke shook, and a cold female voice came out of it, "Immortal cultivator!" ”

Under the attack, the black smoke flickered and turned into a female ghost in red. She craned her neck and let out a long howl. The resentment in the forest surged towards Su Jinge and Qin Yunqian. Surrounded by resentment, it felt as if it was entangled in countless cold poisonous snakes.

The female ghost in red took advantage of this gap and said loudly: "As long as you help me fulfill my wish, I will never harm my neighbors again." ”

Neither of them seemed to hear her. After getting rid of the resentment, he immediately attacked her again.

The snow-colored aura lingered all around, making it impossible for the female ghost in red to escape. The purple light path thundered. The female ghost in red tried her best to resist, dodging in embarrassment. Knowing that she was no match for the two, she shouted, "Help me fulfill my wish, it will be easy for you." Help me once, as long as the wish is over, I am willing to dispose of it with the two of you. ”

Su Jinge and Qin Yunqian still didn't stop, and the purple light and peach branch swung at the female ghost in red together, and her figure immediately faded a little. She suddenly seemed to remember something, and used all her strength to resist the two of them again, and shouted with all her might: "I know the way to the fairy world. ”

This time, both men stopped. It's just to trap her with spiritual power.

The female ghost in red didn't expect this sentence to really work, she was stunned for a moment, and said slowly: "Take me to meet someone, and I will tell you where is the road to the fairy world?" ”

Su Jinge asked, "How do you know the way to the immortal world?" ”

"When I was a ghost, I was wandering around and stumbling there. There I met an immortal cultivator and watched him step into the immortal realm. ”

"Then why don't you go along? If you don't do it, do you want to be a ghost? ”

"At that time, my wish was not fulfilled, how could I leave willingly. Do not be reassured, for if you find out that I have deceived you, you can kill me immediately. Anyway, I'm no match for you. ”

Qin Yunqian said, "Where did the immortal cultivator you saw come from?" ”

The face of the female ghost in red showed an expression of remembrance, which made her face soften a lot, "He said that his hometown is called Junzizhou. ”

Su Jinge's heart moved, "Did he go to the fairy world, or did he go back to his hometown?" ”

The female ghost in red shook her head, "I don't know. ”

Even so, Su Jinge was quite moved. Instead of hanging around aimlessly, give it a try. She said to Qin Yunqian: "Brother Qin, we might as well believe her for the time being." ”

Qin Yunqian also agreed, "That's fine." ”

Su Jinge said to the female ghost in red, "You might as well tell me who you want to see first?" ”

The female ghost in red said in ecstasy, "You agreed. ”

Su Jinge said: "Then it depends on who you are going to meet?" ”

"Does it matter who you are? You are immortal cultivators, where in this world will there be places that you can't enter. ”

"That man must be unusual. Otherwise, why can't you go on your own? ”

The face of the red-clothed female ghost gradually became terrifying, and she gritted her teeth and said, "What I want to see is the imperial master, Cheng Wu." ”

Taishi is not a ghost-hunting celestial master. Why can't this female ghost solve it by herself? Su Jinge was puzzled, thinking of the female ghost's previous words, and said, "You can't enter his mansion?" ”

"Not only can't I enter his house, I just couldn't even get close to him in the first place."

"So you're going to use this harmful method to improve your strength?"

"How am I willing to hurt them, but if I don't, how can I meet the negative person." The female ghost in red covered her face with her hands and began to cry mournfully, "How do I want to be like this?" I'm not reconciled. I hate it. ”

She was crying. He muttered to himself. Su Jinge and Qin Yunqian pieced together the story of this female ghost from her fragmentary words.

This red-clothed female ghost is a native of Qiantang, and her father was the most famous Renjitang head in Qiantang County back then. And she herself is also well-known in Qiantang. If that year, she didn't save the man by the river. Her life will not be like this.

It's a clichΓ© story. She saved him. He recuperated in her home, and the two got along day and night, and gradually developed affection. She didn't marry him. He swore that she would not marry. What followed was another old-fashioned bloody plot, in which he befriended the prince at the time and came together with more and more powerful people. Finally, for the sake of power, he gave up her and married her.

His bride sent men to hunt her down and kill her, causing her to die in a foreign land. She turned into a wisp of incense, and all she wanted was to see him. But she couldn't enter the Taishi's Mansion, and she couldn't get close to him. She wandered around, and after a long time, she finally seized the opportunity to brutally punish his wife, the culprit who killed her.

When he found out, he asked his wife why. did not avenge her for revenge, but let people dig up her body, move it back to Qiantang, and set up a feng shui array to trap her in this ancient locust forest. Her resentment soared to the sky, and she turned into a powerful ghost from this ancient locust forest, breaking through the seal on the coffin. Caught a fisherman who was resting in the forest to vent his anger. Inadvertently discovering that sucking human essence can make her stronger, and since then she has been out of control.

Later, she captured a few female ghosts and helped her collect people's essence for her to suck and strengthen herself.

Su Jinge shook his head and sighed lightly. Another one who harms innocent people because of his feelings. It is the word love that is so fascinating that it loses their true nature. Or is their temperament like this, but they are not noticed on weekdays.

The female ghost in red suddenly laughed, "I just want to see him, just to see him, that's all." ”

Su Jinge nodded, "We can promise you, but how are you going to leave this forest?" ”

"Just get an oil-paper umbrella for me to shelter in."

Su Jinge took out the purple bamboo umbrella and let the female ghost in red live in it.

Qin Yunqian saw her put away the umbrella and said, "Little Liu, you can leave with Octagon first." ”

Su Jinge guessed that he was going to kill several other female ghosts, so he didn't ask more, nodded and walked out of the forest.

Anise was not far from the woods, humming a little song to give himself courage. Seeing Su Jinge's figure appear, he immediately drove the carriage over, "Sixth girl, you can come out." She stretched out her head and looked into the woods, "What about the Seventh Prince?" ”

"He still has something to do. Let's go first. ”

Octagon smacked her lips secretly, and the seventh son was alone in this haunted forest at night, and the sixth girl was not worried at all. This new owner is different. He lifted the curtain and let Su Jinge get into the car.

"Sixth girl, where are we going?"

"The capital."

Octagon suspected that he had misheard, "Where?" ”

"The capital."

Octagon patted his chest and shouted at the two horses to go north. It's been less than a day since I followed this new master, and my liver trembled countless times.

The carriage drove for a while, and came to a relatively open place in the four fields. Su Jinge stopped the octagonal.

Octagon stopped the carriage and turned around, "Girl, what do you command?" ”

"It's safe here, so let's rest here."

Octagon's voice changed, "So that place wasn't safe just now?" ”

Su Jinge patted him on the shoulder, jumped out of the carriage and began to collect firewood. An octagonal voice came from behind him: "That seventh son, he." ”

"He'll be fine."

I'm afraid it's some female ghosts.

The fire was lit, Su Jinge leaned in front of the fire, looked at the octagon opposite and said, "Do you know the road to the capital." ”

"Acquaintance."

"Can you draw a map?"

Octagonal scratched his head and said meaninglessly: "The little one hasn't touched the pen yet." ”

Su Jinge stopped talking, pulled down a mat from the carriage, let the octagon cushion his body, and got into the carriage to meditate.

When the sky was full of morning glow, Su Jinge's divine sense sensed that Qin Yunqian was approaching here. She jumped out of the carriage and woke up Octagon.

"Girl, shall we hurry now?"

Su Jinge returned the deed of sale of the octagonal to him: "This is your deed, take it yourself." Go for yourself. ”

Octagon raised his head in a daze, looked at Su Jinge and said, "Girl, did the little one do something wrong?" ”

"No, it's just that we can't take you with us on this trip."

"Didn't the girl say she was going to the capital?"

"We figured it out. And the chariot and the horse have been given to you. ”

Octagon knelt down in a fog and thanked Su Jinge, pulled the carriage and left. He tugged at his face, feeling the pain still a little incredulous. How did this kind of good thing happen? The experience of this day was like a dream. Now he was free, and he had a carriage and two horses.

After he returned to Qiantang and bought his belongings, he heard that Gu Huailin was no longer in trouble, and he suddenly realized something. Didn't you meet a god? Thinking of the fairy character who appeared in Qiantang County a few days ago, Octagon became more and more convinced that there were immortals in Qiantang County, and he was lucky to meet him.

Let's say that Su Jinge here, after standing under the morning glow for a while, he saw Qin Yunqian's figure.

"Sent the star anise away?"

Su Jinge nodded, "I was going to let him lead the way and take us to the capital, but after thinking about it, I felt that it was inappropriate." ”

Qin Yunqian said: "We walk during the day, and we fly at night. In this way, there will be no delay in visiting this place, and there will be no delay in the trip. ”

Su Jinge smiled: "Very good." ”

From Qiantang to the capital, this road is not far away, but it is not close. The scenery along the way covers both north and south.

Along the way, the two didn't encounter anything special, so they walked slowly during the day, traveled through the scenery, and inquired about the route to the capital. At night, the imperial weapon flew carefully and rushed to the direction of the capital.

When I came to the capital, it was noon.

The two entered the city and played around as usual. The atmosphere presented in this capital is incomparable to those small towns. Su Jinge was amazed, and became more and more sure that there must be a traversal in this world. And that person is very likely to be the most trusted Taishi of today's official family, and Cheng Wu who the female ghost in red is looking for.

Many buildings and measures that clearly bear the shadow of the present are related to Na Chengwu. In the largest restaurant in the capital, the snow-white walls are written with a familiar Qinyuan spring. Snow. It was Cheng Wu who made the payment.

In this way, in a sense, this Cheng Wu is still her "fellow countryman".
