Chapter 163: Prajna

Late at night.

The moonlight was obscured by dark clouds, and it was a night with bright moonlight, but it was also pitch black.

Chen Beibei fell asleep quietly in the room, with the newly acquired Shishen Guan Fox on the windowsill.

The fox in the bamboo pipe emits a slight breathing sound, like the sound of the breeze blowing the leaves, and even if you listen to it, you can feel a sense of tranquility.

The hanged ghost in the courtyard is telling a story to the bride.

This is the seventy-eighth story told by the hanged man.

"Uncle, why did your wife let you go after you went back?"

The bride asked with a puzzled expression.

"Xiaoluo, you interrupted me to tell the story, I have said it many times, so please don't interrupt me."

"Okay, uncle, I was wrong, I won't be next time."

"Say it every time......"

The hanged man said helplessly.

"Uncle, you can continue to talk."

The hanged man looked up at the dark sky and thought: "Because my wife loves me very much, she will tell me to get out of my house when I return home after thirty years of absence." ”

"Let you go, is it love?"

"Hmm."

"In the thirty years I've been out there, I've met a lot of wonderful women and stories, and she's always guarded that home. Thirty years of being alone, day and night.

I felt that I owed something to her, so I decided to stay by her side for the rest of my life.

But at night, my hand caressed her wrinkled body, and I felt that she was no longer her.

She used to be a fair-skinned and delicate-looking woman.

Now, it's probably like the old locust tree I hang on.

In any case, it is impossible to make people have any desire. ”

"Uncle, you're really hateful."

"yes, I think so too, and when I woke up the next morning, she was no longer in bed."

"Where did she go?"

"Her body is in our well."

"Ah, is she dead?"

"Well, she jumped off by herself, probably because she felt that she didn't need to exist."

"Why would she think that?"

"It's complicated, and even if I said it, it's hard for you to understand right now."

"Oh...... All right. ”

The hanged man closed his eyes and didn't continue.

"Hahaha, that woman committed suicide because she felt disgusted by you, right?"

An unfamiliar voice sounded, coming from the roof of Chen Beibei's house.

The moon was still obscured by dark clouds, and the whole sky was pitch black, and even on the roof not far away, there was no way to see the appearance of the person who spoke, only a vague black shadow.

"Who are you?"

The Hanged Man asked.

"I am a crowtengu, obedient to the wishes of the drunken boy, and have come to recruit you."

It was late at night, and most of the people were already asleep.

No one found the Raven Tengu.

After all, the Raven Tengu was completely dark, and standing in the darkness, it was as if he had blended into the darkness, and even if he looked closely, he could only see a vague black shadow.

"Recruitment?"

The hanged man looked at the Raven Tengu and asked suspiciously.

"Yes, the old department of the drunken boy has died and disappeared in a thousand years, and now there are only four people who have been recovered."

"Which four?"

"I, Lord Prajna, Lord Yaksha, and the Daughter of the Ugly Time, the Wine Swallowing Boy will definitely make a comeback with our assistance. When the time comes, the name of the boy will be remembered by everyone, how about it, do you want to join us?"

Raven Tengu looked at the hanged ghost and said slowly.

Goblins will choose powerful people or goblins to follow, after all, they are always easy to destroy when they are alone.

If you follow powerful people or ghosts, then you can make it easier for you to live.

Disappear.

Completely disappeared from the world.

It's something that all ghosts don't want to face.

The drunken swallowing boy of the great rivers and mountains used to be a powerful monster that dominated ghosts.

The ghosts that are now scattered in the world, if they knew that the drunken boy had reappeared, would probably follow him one after another.

"No, I can't follow the drunken boy."

"Why, is there a monster more powerful than the drunken boy?"

The hanged ghost looked at the Raven Tengu with a smile on his face, "I just like it here, and if I leave, I'm going to follow the Wine Swallowing Boy everywhere to fight." ”

"If you stay alone, it's easy to disappear, is that okay?"

"Hmm."

The hanged man replied.

Obviously, monsters like Raven Tengu and Ugly Girl, which are not strong in their own right, have survived for more than a thousand years, probably because they once relied on the powerful Wine Swallowing Boy.

If they can meet again, the drunken boys, they naturally have no reason not to follow.

"In that case, then take your leave. Since we don't follow the drunken boy, we will be enemies if we meet again in the future. ”

"yes, I know."

The Raven Tengu spread its wings, flapped it slightly, and disappeared above the roof.

……

Daytime.

Chen Beibei woke up, Guan Hu poked his head out of the bamboo pipe and glanced at Chen Beibei: "Master, are you ......awake?"

"Well, Guan Hu."

"The host, the host ......"

The voice of the dream-eating tapir sounded outside the door, the voice was very small, obviously very anxious, and there was still a trace of shyness in the voice.

Chen Beibei opened the door: "Dream Eater Tapir, do you have anything wrong?"

"Master, last night, I met a terrible ghost, and she told me to follow the wine-swallowing boy."

"And how did you choose?"

"I ...... I refused...... If it was before, I might have to agree, but now that I'm the master's Shikigami, I can refuse them. ”

"Dream Eater, what's the name of that terrible ghost you said?"

Chen Beibei looked at the Dream Eater Tapir and asked it.

"Her name is Pranya, and she is a ghost who specializes in killing humans."

The Dream Tapir replied.

Prajna is actually an evil spirit, usually made of a woman who has suffered a lot.

In the Tale of Genji, the Rokujo Imperial Breath House fell in love with the abusive Light Source, and was betrayed in a unilateral way, and turned into a ghost.

Of course, there are other reasons for this, such as the fact that Rokujo's husband died when she was twenty years old. Then he has been widowed, and in this case, he fell into a fiery love affair with the light source who was seven years younger than him.

But later, the light source fell in love with the low-status Yan Xi again, and rarely went to her home from then on.

Moreover, the Rokujo Imperial Breath House was also humiliated in public by the retinue of Aoi, the main wife of the Light Source Clan, and was scolded as a mistress.

This is undoubtedly unbearable for Rokujo.

Especially at night, the thought that the light source is still with other women makes Rokujo even more painful.

Of course, there are other stories of women who have turned into Prajna.

For example, Ah Yan, the girl in Yotsuya Strange Talk, is also a woman who endured a lot of pain before turning into Prajna.

And after turning into Prajna, he directly ate all his children.

If it is really Prajna who has also come to this world.

I'm sure a lot of humans will die.

"Dream tapir, be careful when you go out at night in the future."

Chen Beibei looked at the Dream Eater Tapir and said slowly.

"Master, I see."

The Dream Tapir replied.

Chen Beibei asked the Dream Eater Tapir to go back to rest, and only he and Guan Hu were left in the room.

Wine swallows the boy, and the evil ghost is like that.

Thinking of such a name, Chen Beibei couldn't help but worry.

It's all legendary demons.

The legend of the drunken boy has killed countless people, and the means are very cruel, and it is definitely a more terrifying existence than Prajna.

"Guan Hu, did Pranya also run out of your temple?"

Chen Beibei picked up the bamboo pipe, and Guan Hu jumped directly off the ground and turned into a woman in a white dress.

"Prajna didn't run out of our temple, a thousand years ago, under the hands of the drunken boy, there was a little ghost named Prajna."

"Just a little ghost?"

"Well, at that time, the wine swallowing boy was the most powerful monster in the country, and there were tens of thousands of ghosts and demons under his command. Prajna is indeed only a little ghost. ”

"It seems that the drunken boy is really not easy to mess with."

Chen Beibei walked out, and when the hanged ghost in the courtyard saw Chen Beibei, his expression was a little different from usual.

It seems that there is something on the mind.

However, Chen Beibei also went to ask carefully, because although the hanged ghost was in Chen Beibei's courtyard, it was not Chen Beibei's god after all.

Chen Beibei walked alone in Qinghe Town, and there were familiar appearances everywhere.

And everybody is living as usual.

But even so, Chen Beibei still faintly felt a little uneasy, as if he had an ominous premonition.

The river water in Qinghe Town is still so clear, and the winter sun shines on the river, sparkling and crystal clear.

The kappa I once met has been reincarnated.

And the peach blossom demon that goes to the river every night has completely disappeared.

Only the ghost of Li Ye remains, and occasionally a few moving flutes will be played by the river.

In fact, think about it, Chen Beibei has lost a lot and gained a lot in the time he has become an onmyoji.

Everything is changing, but quietly, it is difficult for people to notice, and when I suddenly look back, I realize that things are wrong.

But it's okay now, Chen Beibei still has so many style gods.

Either way, they must not have any more accidents.

The people of Qinghe Town can't have any more accidents.

Chen Beibei was by the river in Qinghe Town, opened his spiritual eye, and did not see Li Ye's ghost.

It had been a few days since he had returned, and the sound of the flute by the river seemed to have disappeared.

Chen Beibei didn't know what the reason for this was.

After all, when Chen Beibei was only passing by the river, he would occasionally glance at Li Ye, and as for any more, there would be none.

When Chen Beibei returned home, he stayed by the river, and before he knew it, it was already dark.

Li Ye's ghost still hasn't appeared, and it seems to have disappeared.

At night, there was a hint of chill everywhere in Qinghe Town, and the moon had not appeared in the sky for several days.

Or rather, the moon appeared, only to be blocked by dark clouds.

This kind of dark night makes people feel like they are in an unfamiliar space.

When Chen Beibei walked on the streets of Qinghe Town, everyone's doors had been closed, and even the few sporadic lights that used to have disappeared had disappeared.

The entire Qinghe town is full of weirdness.

The air is getting colder, and now winter is almost over, and during the day, there is still the sun.

This kind of cold also made Chen Beibei feel a strangeness.

Chen Beibei opened the spiritual eye.

While passing by a forest, Chen Beibei saw three translucent spirits.

"I heard that the drunken boy has been resurrected, let's hurry up and take refuge in him."

"I don't know if he'll take in a weak ghost like us."

"I don't know if he'll take in a weak ghost like us."

"I'll take it in."

"I'll take it in."

There was a ghost who kept repeating what other ghosts were saying, like a repeater.

"Well, then let's go find the wine swallowing boy."

"Well, then let's go find the wine swallowing boy."

Chen Beibei can hear the voices of those ghosts, and those ghosts can also see Chen Beibei, as well as hear Chen Beibei's voice.

But ordinary people can't find ghosts.

So the three ghosts also thought that Chen Beibei didn't find them, and walked directly in front of Chen Beibei.

"Hey, you guys stop."

Chen Beibei looked at the three ghosts and said to them.

When Chen Beibei spoke, his hand had already reached into his pocket and held the flame talisman tightly.

In this way, three ordinary imps, a flame talisman should be able to be solved.

The three ghosts looked around, and finally found that Chen Beibei was calling them.

"He's calling us."

"It's weird, since you can see us."

"yes, that's weird."

The repeaters were back to normal this time, after all, they were a little shocked to encounter a human who could see them.

"Where is the drunken boy you are talking about?"

Chen Beibei asked.

"The drunken boy only accepts ghosts, not humans, but if humans go, they will be eaten."

"yes, it's going to be eaten."

"Then let's let him go with us to find the drunken boy and let him be eaten."

"Hey, okay, let him be eaten."

When the three ghosts spoke, their voices did not decrease in the slightest, and Chen Beibei heard them clearly.

"Come with us, that human. We'll take you to find the Wine Swallowing Boy. ”

"Hehe, come with us."

The three ghosts snickered together.

Chen Beibei just wanted to ask about the location of the wine swallowing boy.

As for things like going to the wine swallowing boy alone, it is tantamount to sending experience, so Chen Beibei will not be so stupid.

"Let's go, I still have something to do, I can't go with you to find the wine swallowing boy."

Chen Beibei said.

"He said he had something."

"It must be scared."

"Hey, hey, scared......"

Chen Beibei didn't care about them, and left directly, and the three ghosts didn't follow, and walked towards the back mountain of Qinghe Town.

I was hooked on gambling on support tickets, and I just lost more than four million gold coins, crying~
