Chapter 8: The Yin God
Qi Hufei rode a battery car and came to Gujiazhuang in the south of the city according to the address written on the note.
It was a large single-courtyard house, with white flags hanging on the poplar tree at the entrance of the courtyard, a shed under the tree, and wreaths on the outside.
Qi Hufei rode the battery car to a nearby commissary, bought a bottle of water, and thought about finding some reason to go in while drinking.
There were already a lot of people in the courtyard over there, and there was a faint cry.
Suddenly, he sensed that something was wrong, and glanced at the tall poplar tree, and could sense something yin wandering in his senses.
His fingers inadvertently wiped his eyelids, pinched his brows as if he was tired, and silently recited the yin and yang mantra in his mouth, the air in front of him rippled like water waves, and he saw a child-like figure lying on a poplar branch, looking into the yard.
Wouldn't it, run out so soon?
The soul is out of the body, there is no Yin cha escort, but you can't go to Huangquan Road, unless you specialize in cultivating the Yin God, otherwise it won't take a few days to have nothing.
Qi Hufei is not in a hurry, it is not good in case he makes a mistake.
He chatted with the owner of the commissary: "Who is this leaving, I am very sad when I hear the crying, I am not old, right?" ”
The boss said, "Who says it's not, the white-haired man sends the black-haired man!" ”
Qi Feifei asked, "It can't be a child, right?" ”
The boss said: "That's not it, the daughter of the old Gu family is in her twenties, I heard that the marriage just set last year, who knew that there would be no one like this." ”
"You're in your twenties!" Qi Hufei glanced at the shadow of the child on the tree and frowned, "How did you die?" ”
"I heard that I fell into a mountain stream and died when I went to Qilin Mountain to play, and my body was gnawed by wolves." The boss shook his head and sighed, "Alas, what a pitiful! ”
"So you've been dead for days?"
"After the person disappeared, I searched in the mountains for three days to find him, and today it must have been five days." The boss counted the days and sighed, "You said that the current girl, how dare she travel to the mountains alone?" ”
When Qi Hufei heard this, he estimated that today's task would not be completed. The corpse lay in the mountains for several days, and was eaten by wild beasts, and even if there were remnant souls, they remained in the mountains.
But what's that thing in the tree?
He decided to go over and have a look, so he asked the commissary owner, "Do you have any white packets to sell here?" ”
The boss said, "Why am I selling that?" What's the matter, you're going to mourn? ”
"What about the envelopes, the white ones."
"The envelope does." The boss took out a white envelope, "You don't know anyone, what's the fun?" ”
Qi Hufei took the envelope and stuffed it with three hundred bull coins.
Ox Coin is a currency commonly used in the mortal world of Xiniu Hezhou, and the value of immortal coins is completely incomparable. Most of the cultivation items cannot be traded in mortal currency, and occasionally some people exchange them on the black market, and one purple coin can be exchanged for more than a thousand cow coins.
Huanghuaguan occupies such a large mountain, and the medicinal materials on the mountain can also earn a lot of cow coins every year, but for the cultivation of the master and apprentice, that little money is pitiful.
The only thing that can stably generate immortal coin income on the mountain is those spider silks.
Well, now that he is also a white-collar worker in the fairy world with an income of two hundred purple coins a month, what is it to give someone a white envelope.
He asked the boss, "Is it okay to have 300 yuan?" ”
The boss said: "Less is less, but you are not their relative, meaning, enough." ”
Qi Feifei thought about it, he couldn't be too stingy, so he added another dollar to the envelope.
I asked the boss to borrow a pen and wrote a word on the envelope, and the payment was Huanghuaguan. After looking at it, I thought it was not good, so I crossed out the word again and changed it to "Xie Bi'an".
Well, this is a business trip, and you may be able to get reimbursed when you go back.
He looked at his clothes again, although they were not black, they were quite plain, and there was nothing wrong with them.
Everything was in order, Qi Hufei took the white envelope and walked slowly towards the poplar tree at the gate of the courtyard.
The kid in the tree seemed to sense something, turned his head warily, and stared at him closely.
Qi Feifei pretended that nothing had happened and continued to walk forward.
The child relaxed, turned back and looked into the courtyard.
Qi Yu staggered to the bottom of the tree, pretended to yawn, recited the soul binding spell, stretched out his hand and pointed to the sky, and a stream of mana wrapped around the figure on the tree.
The child struggled violently, and a dark wind rolled up between the branches of the poplar tree, and many leaves fell.
Qi Hufei felt the anger of the other party in his consciousness, and then, with a bang, the thing broke free from its restraints, disappeared from the tree in an instant, and appeared in the shadow of a nearby stone.
Just as a person passed by, the thing hid in the shadow of the person, and then teleported to the shadow of another person nearby.
Hey, Yin Retreat!
This is not an ordinary yin thing, this is a yin god who has cultivated spells!
Qi Feifei didn't chase it, squinting his eyes as it moved between the figure and the shadows of the corners, stones, and grass, and finally disappeared into the far corner.
The first errand encountered such an interesting thing, he had to think twice.
Could it be that Xie Bi'an sent it?
The third security team still has the sign of the Yin and Yang Division, and it is not surprising that there are several Yin Gods under their hands.
So is this thing here to spy on this yard, or is it to spy on me?
Either way, it shows that this mission is not so simple.
Qi Hufei decided to complete the task first, and if someone really wanted to embarrass him, he wouldn't be polite. It's a big deal, you are your civil servant, and I will return to my view of yellow flowers.
There were a lot of people in the courtyard, and the main family was busy going in and out, and no one stopped Qi Feifei.
He put the wrapped white bag on the table where the accounts were collected, and someone from the main family led him to the mourning hall.
There is a portrait of the deceased hanging in the mourning hall, and she is indeed a very young woman, and her appearance is also very delicate, not short-lived.
Qi Hufei bowed in front of the statue, and the relatives of the deceased began to cry with a whimper.
After bowing, he turned to the funeral bed behind him and observed a moment of silence in front of the deceased.
The deceased was lying on the bed, covered with a cloth, presumably because he had been eaten by wild beasts, and even his face was covered.
Qi Feifei kept his spiritual vision on, and saw a wisp of ghost wrapped around the corpse through the corpse cloth.
This was a bit of a surprise to him.
Normally, after being dead for so many days, and the corpse is exposed in the mountains, the wind and the sun are exposed, the soul should have dissipated a long time ago, and even if there is a remnant soul, it must be as thin as a gossamer and difficult to catch.
But now her soul looks quite complete and can fit her body, and she seems to be a little reluctant to Yang Shi.
Qi Hufei was on a mission, silently reciting a spell, using mana to restrain the soul of the deceased and pull her up from the corpse.
The female soul floated in the air, gradually revealing her appearance, exactly the same as the statue in the mourning hall, but her eyes were dull and her expression was dazed, as if she had no spirits.
Is this because I drank Meng Po soup in advance or how to drop it, is it that I was mentally incomplete before I was born?
After taking a closer look, Qi Jufei noticed that something was wrong.
This soul seems to be complete, but in fact it is incomplete, as if it has been broken up and reunited, as if a photograph has been torn apart and put back together.
Could it be that she also has a cultivator in her family who helped him recover the remnant soul?
He glanced at the relatives of the deceased in front of the funeral bed, and all of them had sad faces, sobbing and whimpering, and no one noticed that the soul of the deceased had left his body.
After Qi Hufei finished his silent mourning, he said "festival mourning" to the people of the main family, then turned around and retreated, and came out of the mourning hall, and the woman's soul followed behind him.
There were many people who came to mourn, and no one noticed that he came and went.
It wasn't until he got back to the commissary that he turned to the woman's soul and said, "Do you have any unfulfilled wishes?" ”
The woman looked dazed.
The owner of the commissary shuddered and asked, "Who are you talking to?" ”
Qi Hufei sighed, took out the yin and yang bottle from the storage backpack, pulled out the cork, and said, "Come in", and the female soul turned into a wisp of smoke and got into the bottle.
He suddenly remembered a story he had heard in his previous life about a fisherman who fished up from the sea with a bottle containing the devil.
Now the Yin and Yang Bottle in his hand is such a bottle, isolating Yin and Yang, it can seal an incorporeal soul creature, no matter how powerful it is, it can't escape, but ordinary people without mana can easily open it.
"I hope you can have a good birth in the next life." He said to the bottle.
The boss looked at his inexplicable actions, felt a little cold more and more, and asked, "What is this?" ”
Qi Hu raised the bottle in his hand and said, "The gift of the master's family." ”
Then I got on the battery car and left.
"A glass bottle in return?" The boss was stunned for a long time, and said to himself, "I believe you are a ghost!" ”
