Chapter 123: The Seventh Day of the Seventh Month
Huangquan Village, the seventh day of the seventh month.
The day finally came, Su Jue'an was sitting in the courtyard, and Yue Qianlong was breastfeeding Su Yan next to her. This child has a good habit, as long as he is full, he can always sleep beautifully.
"You see, this kid is asleep. Yue Qianlong caressed the child's face, and then hugged him in his arms.
"Senior brother, don't be sad, we will definitely be able to take Yan'er out, don't worry. ”
Su Jue nodded, but his eyebrows were full of worry.
"Ah Jue, Chitaki, the hour is coming, and you will inevitably be taken to the Ten Halls of Senluo for inquiry, you must be prepared. ”
After Xiao Zhi finished speaking, he sat in the courtyard with the two and waited, but after a while, two shadows holding white flags appeared in front of him. They looked like human beings, but they were all pale, and their limbs were like dry bones, as if they had crawled out of a mausoleum.
"Xiao Zhi. As soon as his name was called, there was an extra pair of shackles on his body, and Xiao Zhi fell to his knees, his body so heavy that he couldn't lift it at all.
"Brother Xiao!"
The two ghosts glanced at Su and Yue, and finally stopped at the child.
"You are not from Huangquan, where did you come from?"
Su Jue: "We are from the Fengdu City of the world, and we are all unfinished. ”
"The world?" the two ghosts looked at each other, and the slightly chubby one said, "There has never been a mortal in this Huangquan Village." ”
Yue Qianlong stretched out his hand, "Then you can see if we have a pulse?"
The slightly fat one stepped forward, and after probing, he only smiled 'hehe' and said, "There are really living people, we quickly arrested them and reported them to Yingfujun." ”
Xiao Zhi secretly shook his head at the two of them, although Ying Zhen was the youngest among the ten princes, he had the most eccentric temper, and the number of lonely souls sent to the purgatory at all levels by his hands was the largest, and Su Jue and Yue Qianlong couldn't see him.
The thin man took the booklet and asked, "Name, age, place of origin, how did you get here?"
"The ......"
"Don't say it!" Xiao Zhi shouted with all his might, "you must not say that without these they will not be able to detain the undead." ”
"Xiao Zhi, I've been dead for so long and still so dishonest. The fat man tugged at the chains, and Xiao Zhi's whole body was dragged to the ground, and the mask on his face also fell off.
Thin man: "If your face is ruined, your face will be ruined, what kind of mask are you wearing? ”
The first time he saw Xiao Zhi's true face, Su Jue was also shocked, he had seen a lot of wind and waves since he was a child, but it was rare to be injured so horribly like Xiao Zhi, the scar was cut into the bone, and only a pair of eyes were still intact.
"Aren't they mortals, even if we don't have names, we can bring them all back!"
Seeing this, Su Jue immediately summoned the fat man from the Yao Palace, and then turned back to Yue Qianlong's invitation to coerce the thin man.
Fat man: "You, you, you, where do your weapons come from?"
Thin man: "yes, how did you get the weapon?"
"Don't care how you got here, take us to the city of vain!"
"No, we are only responsible for taking Xiao Zhi to the city in vain. ”
Yue Qianlong tightened his strength, "Don't go, do you want to die?"
"Die?" burst of laughter rang out around them. ”
"Chitaki ......" Xiao Zhi reluctantly raised his head, and now the pain around him was like peeling skin, "They are ghosts, you can't kill them, it's useless to threaten death." ”
"Since death can't work, then stun them!" As soon as Yue Qianlong's voice fell, the two ghosts fell to the ground.
Su Jue hurriedly squatted down to untie the shackles on Xiao Zhi's body, "Brother Xiao, come with us!"
"Go away, you can't find it. ”
"I don't cut iron like clay. ”
"This is not an ordinary shackle, I am already dead, it is the law of the underworld that holds me and not this torture instrument, it is difficult for you to change the rules of heaven and earth. I can't get out of this netherworld, but you're okay. Xiao Zhi said and drew a simple map on the sand, "I don't remember much, you can follow this path, go out from Huangquan Village to the west, you will pass through the Jiehe River, this river is the same source as the Lethe River, but you must not stay in it, don't think much about what you see, remember to remember." ”
It is said that this Lethe River is at the junction of Huangquan Road and Ghost Gate Pass, which is full of lonely souls and wild ghosts, and if you want to cross the Lethe River, you must pass through the Nai He Bridge, and if you want to go to the Nai He Bridge, you must drink Meng Po soup and forget all the previous events.
"Brother Xiao, this Jiehe River is the same as Lethe?"
"Lethe River is the river of the undead, and the Jiehe River is the river of the underworld, both of you are not dead, you will see the memories of your past life when you walk in it, it is easy to get lost when you walk in it, you must not stay longer! ”
Can she see her past life? Yue Qianlong looked at Su Jue, so would she see what she saw in Su Jue's dream before?
"But Brother Xiao, what will you do when they wake up?"
Xiao Zhi pushed away Su Jue's hand, stroked his face, and said, "I've seen a lot of criminal law battles in the underworld, so you don't have to worry about me." It's just that today's farewell, I'm afraid there will be no goodbye. ”
Su and Yue were silent for a while, Xiao Zhi looked at the sleeping Su Yan, and finally tried to grin. Although this smile looked hideous and terrifying, it was already reflected in the hearts of the two of them. Su Jue stood up and bowed respectfully to Xiao Zhi, and Yue Qianlong did the same when he saw this.
"Brother Xiao's kindness, we must remember it for the rest of our lives!"
Yue Qianlong: "Yes, don't worry, we will definitely go back to Huangquan Village to see you if we have the chance!"
"There's not much time, you two go quickly. ”
Su and Yue got up and went in the direction where the two ghosts came, and only today's Huangquan Village was wide open in a year, and all the way to the west was Lechuan.
Chenguo, Liexu City.
Chiyu knelt down in front of the hall, and Ah Qi shrank beside him, his face still full of tears.
"Xiaoyu, did you say they would agree to let us in?"
Le Cixiu has been detained in the Qiuguan Mansion for more than 20 days, and Chi Yu and the others have also been waiting in this Sikou Mansion for more than 20 days. Today's Da Si Mi is a woman, although she is ruthless and strict, but she has a motherly heart for children, and she has not neglected Chi Yu and Ah Qi these days.
"Xiao Yu ......"
At this time, two people came over from outside the house, and they were the ministers of the Qiu Guanfu.
"Go to the Qiuguan Mansion quickly, the people are already at the door. ”
"Who?"
"Who else are you looking for? The lord of the country is very kind, but he confiscated Le Cixiu's family property and fief, and the case on his body is closed, but the lord of the country has an order, and you will never be able to set foot in Liexu City and the capital of Yucheng. ”
Today's lord and music cultivation have several faces, and the palace is also his dance music, even if the people in the Qiu Guanfu are convicted of the crime, they will take care of the mind of the lord, and this crime is ...... Chi Yu couldn't be clearer in his heart, he had secretly planned for the past few years, although there were clues, but there was no ironclad evidence, and now just based on the words of a few children, the big priest should not be able to convict him.
