The Sixteenth Story: Past and Present (5)
I glanced at Blackie, but it seemed to be embarrassed. I thought for a while and said to Wei Li, "Then who is he and what is his name?" ”
Wei Li said with some sadness: "He is Sima Jingde, a famous talented man in Wei at that time, and his father is Sima Zhiyuan, an old minister in the court, so we have known each other since childhood." ”
"Gone? That's all? "As soon as I heard it, how did I find such a little information?
Wei Li thought for a while and said: "I know so much, he was still alive when I died, his age and appearance must have changed, maybe the only thing that hasn't changed is that there is a cinnabar mole on the tiger's mouth on his left hand." ”
I saw her expectation, so I said to her, "I will definitely do my best to find him, but whether I can find him or not depends on the will of God, because after all, it has been more than 2,000 years!" ”
She nodded and said, "Don't worry, I'm not an unreasonable woman, as long as you try your best to help me find it, whether you can find it or not, I will be grateful to you!" ”
I thought that I couldn't let her scare my senior sister like this all the time, so I said to Wei Li: "During this period, I hope you don't show up to scare Yan Hong, okay." ”
She thought for a moment, nodded slowly, and vanished. Seeing the female ghost leave, my heart finally breathed a sigh of relief. When I called my senior sister, I told her that she had wrapped the agate in a red cloth and put it in the cabinet in the past few days, and that she should not think about making a move for the time being, which would kill more people and not be good for herself.
After I went back, I looked up a lot of information about the Warring States Period on the Internet and in the library, but there were really few about this Sima Xunde! There are only a few short sentences about all his information: "Sima Xunde, a talented son of Wei, is talented, erudite, well-versed in ancient and modern times, and is upright, but he was excluded by the partisan dispute in the court, so he resigned and returned." ”
As for what he did after that, when he died, and where he was buried, I don't know at all. Xiao Hei watched me check the information day and night, looking for clues. finally couldn't help but say to me: "Don't look for it, Sima Xunde is not even a small role in history, how can the officials write one more word for him?" Actually, I have a way, that is, I am afraid that you will not dare. ”
As soon as I heard that Xiao Hei had a way, I urged it to hurry up and say, don't talk nonsense!
Xiao Hei snorted and said, "This is what you asked me to say, if you don't dare at that time, I don't care!" ”
I patted my chest and said, "Don't worry, as long as you can find this Sima Jingde, everything is easy to say." ”
"Well, actually, I have an old friend, maybe she will know the present and past situation of this Sima Xunde." Xiao Hei said a little embarrassed.
I had some differences: "Your friend, is it also a cat?" ”
Xiao Hei glared at me and said, "Who said my friend must be a cat?" She...... It used to be people. ”
"Ahh Is that a ghost now? "I said that this little black was here to sell me a guanzi just now? The feeling is that I want to meet a ghost with it.,But since it's Xiao Hei's friend.,It should be easy to talk.。
Xiao Hei saw that I was a little nervous, so he said to me, "Don't worry, since you are my friend, I won't do anything to you, but before you go to see her, you have to buy a bottle of Erguotou, because she is a drunkard." ”
I'm speechless, can a drunken ghost be reliable? The next night, Xiao Hei and I took a bottle of Erguotou that we bought at the supermarket and went to a wasteland in the suburbs. Then Blackie asked me to draw a big circle on the ground, and I stood in it with it.
Xiao Hei looked left and right, and then began to mumble the incantation, and after a while, a one-man high light hole appeared in the circle, and it seemed that we had to go in to find its friend. Before entering, Xiao Hei specially instructed me to put the jade pendant on his chest.
After passing through the light hole, I found that there were some illusory scenes on both sides except for a small path. After walking for a section, I saw a door. Xiao Hei and I walked to the door, and it made me knock on the door three times, two in a hurry and one in a hurry.
As soon as I knocked on it, the door creaked open. Before he came, Xiao Hei explained to me that this friend of theirs was an assistant to the judge in charge of the book of life and death, named Granny Jiang. Before his death, he was drunk and died at home because of his addiction to alcohol, but his body was as incorruptible or destructive as if he was asleep. In the end, she was judged by Lu, and felt that she was also a strange person, so it was better to let her do chores under herself, as for Xiao Hei's friendship with her, that would be a later story, let's talk about it later.
As soon as I walked through the door, I saw an old woman in her late teens, cleaning in front of a pile of books. Xiao Hei stepped forward and just wanted to speak, when he heard a shriveled voice say, "Kuroko, why do you have time to come to me, an old woman?" When you come, it will be fine! ”
Little Black Meow jumped on the pile of books and said, "Granny Jiang, how can you say that about me?" In vain, I thought you didn't have any wine to drink here, so I specially brought you a bottle of Erguotou? ”
Granny Jiang really likes to drink, and when she heard that there was wine, her old face full of folds smiled. I saw that she was not greedy, so I put the wine in front of her and said, "Hello Granny Jiang, my name is Jin Danzhu." The first time we met, it was a small meaning, not a tribute. ”
Granny Jiang glanced at me and said, "You are Xiao Hei's new master?" ”
I nodded hurriedly and said, "I heard Xiao Hei say that you work very hard here, and we know that you like to drink this, so we brought it to you." ”
Granny Jiang left the pile of books and leaned in front of me to sniff it vigorously. I made her smell it straight in her heart! Xiao Hei hurriedly jumped in front of me and shouted at her, "Old woman, what are you smelling blindly? ”
Granny Jiang laughed, turned around and picked up the bottle of wine, couldn't wait to open it and take a sip, and then said to us with a very enjoyable expression: "You don't want me to check the past life of your new master, do you?" I can tell you that her past life was not with me. ”
Hearing her say this, I was curious about what my past life was! I was about to ask her how much she knew about my past life, but I was interrupted by Xiao Hei.
"Old woman, we are here today to ask you to help find a man named Sima Jingde, who was born in the Warring States Period."
Granny Jiang shook her head like a rattle when she heard this, "People from more than two thousand years ago! How dare you say it! It's not that I don't want to help you, and it's a dead ghost to find it, what are you looking for him? ”
Xiao Hei said politely: "Then you don't have to care, we just want to know how he died and where he was buried, and now he is not reincarnated." ”
Granny Jiang thought for a while and said, "Okay, for the sake of you still remembering that I, an old woman, love to drink, I'll check it for you." After speaking, she turned around and returned to the pile of books, pointed with her hand and said, "Sima Jingde, a talented man of Wei during the Warring States Period, come out!" ”
As soon as she finished speaking, an old dusty book flew out of the stack. Granny Jiang caught it with her hand, opened it and looked at it. After a while, she pointed to the old book with her hand, and it flew back on its own.
Then Granny Jiang took a sip of wine and said: "This kid died early, he was originally a concubine, but later because he offended someone who shouldn't be offended, the concubine was not made, and the princess married the monarch of another country." This kid has always been in love with him, depressed, and died of illness not long after. ”
