Chapter 241: Beihai Hua Tuo Tells a Story (8)

To put it mildly, that is, he has a strong sense of justice.

Let's take Zhou Xiaoqian being hacked to death by Leng Buding, Jiang Shuai was very angry, what a good woman, not to mention beautiful, and has an excellent temperament, although I don't know what the legendary four ancient beauties look like, but Zhou Xiaoqian is definitely a beauty, not only in ancient times, but even in today's society, it is one in a million.

Such a good woman was actually killed by someone with a knife, and she took advantage of her unpreparedness to attack from behind, so vicious, who did it? How much hatred does this person have for Zhou Xiaoqian?

When this question flashed through Jiang Shuai's mind, he immediately came to a conclusion: The person who killed Zhou Xiaoqian should be Jiang Lang.

If it weren't him, who else could it be?

A late autumn night, strange rooms, long desks, small bronze figures...... All of this should be done by the surname Jiang, although I don't know why he arranged the room like this, but, one thing is certain: this guy must have bad intentions!

Yes, this Jiang Lang, that is, Zhou Xiaoqian's lover, is afraid that he has no good intentions towards Zhou Xiaoqian.

Nine times out of ten, it was Jiang Lang who killed Zhou Xiaoqian, and when she was defenseless, he stabbed her in the back of the head!

"It's a little tricky!" Jiang Shuai muttered to himself.

Yes, a manly man, since he is determined to help Zhou Xiaoqian, he must help. How can you help Zhou Xiaoqian? The first is to find out her grievances, that is, how she died at that time, whether she was killed by Jiang Lang, and why Jiang Lang killed her. Secondly, it is to try to find her body, if her body is still alive and not corrupt, Zhou Xiaoqian's soul should return to the body, theoretically, she can come back from the dead.

However, the other party is an ethereal soul, and almost all the memories of the previous life have been lost, how can I help the other party?

Seeing Jiang Shuai's hesitant appearance, Zhou Xiaoqian smiled sadly and said, "Childe, it's almost dawn, Xiaoqian thanks you for saving your life, don't leave it at that!" With that, she turned to leave.

"Slow!" Jiang Shuai shouted to the other party, "Go?" Where are you going? You are now just a ghost, and when you leave here, you have nowhere to go, and you will become a lonely wanderer in the dark. So, I have to help you. ”

"But how can you help me?"

"I can tell you responsibly, you died very unjustly, although you are a person from the Ming Dynasty and have been dead for more than 600 years, but, there is a saying, by the way, grievances must be revealed, and I am in charge of this matter." A sense of pride arose spontaneously from the bottom of Jiang Shuai's heart, "What I promised must be done, since I said I will help you, I will definitely help you." As for how to help you, I haven't thought about it for a while, but there is always a breakthrough in everything, so don't worry. ”

Zhou Xiaoqian was very moved, she looked at Jiang Shuai, her good-looking eyelashes flickered, her eyes were like a clear spring, she couldn't see the bottom, and after looking at Jiang Shuai quietly for a few seconds, she said with a sad face: "Childe's great kindness to me, if there is an afterlife, Xiaoqian will definitely repay it with all her might." But, how can you help me, Childe is right, I'm a lonely wanderer now, alas, not even a wild ghost, because I don't know where my body is. ”

This sentence immediately reminded Jiang Shuai, yes, the top priority is to find Zhou Xiaoqian's body, which is also the body, as long as her body is not corrupted, it is very likely to come back to life.

Such a simple truth, in fact, I thought of it at the beginning, I thought of it a long time ago, the reason why I reacted after being reminded by Zhou Xiaoqian just now, to be honest, it was Jiang Shuai who was a little distracted just now.

I have to say that during the conversation between Jiang Shuai and Zhou Xiaoqian just now, a small psychological change occurred. When he first saw Zhou Xiaoqian's soul, Jiang Shuai was full of vigilance and vigilance, although the soul and the ghost are two different things, they belong to the supernatural, they are yin things, and they are the opposite of yang. He was worried that the other party's soul would be bad for him, so he was very vigilant.

Later, when he saw that Zhou Xiaoqian was very kind and her soul was very helpless, Jiang Shuai was moved by compassion, and his vigilance turned into a sense of intimacy. I don't want to be wary anymore, what is there to be wary of, the other party needs their own help.

Later, with further exchanges, the two sides were close at hand, the other party was extremely beautiful, and exhaled like an orchid, and said to Jiang Shuai very emotionally, "Childe's great kindness to me, if there is an afterlife, Xiaoqian will definitely repay ...... with all his might", Jiang Shuai couldn't help but be a little distracted, to be exact, not distracted, but excited.

This scene that happened tonight is so familiar, where did it happen...... Oh, I think about it, in "Strange Tales from Liaozhai", there are N ghost stories in it, more than 80% of which revolve around Xiucai and ghosts, and the love that can't be realized in reality is realized in the unreal.

Is it that something will happen to me Jiang Shuai and Zhou Xiaoqian in the future?

Therefore, it is understandable that Jiang Shuai is distracted. In fact, as long as it is a normal man, he will be distracted at this time.

After being reminded by Zhou Xiaoqian, Jiang Shuai reacted, and he nodded and said, "You're right, what you need to do right now is to find your body." ”

"But I can't remember anything, where can I find my body?"

"Don't worry, let me think about it......" Jiang Shuai reached out and touched the ancient jade in his pocket, and with an idea, he groaned and said, "You still have to make a fuss about the bottle, as long as you know which ancient tomb the bottle dug up from, it's OK." Because your Zhou Xiaoqian's soul is trapped in a bottle, this bottle should be placed in the coffin as a funeral object, right......"

Jiang Shuai suddenly thought of the piece of blood on the bottle and Boss Xiao's words that the bottle had been soaked in the blood of a dead person, and couldn't help but suddenly say loudly, "Xiaoqian, your body must be in the coffin!" That's right! It's in the coffin! ”

Because she was too excited, Jiang Shuai's voice was very loud, which startled Zhou Xiaoqian, and she was puzzled: "Childe, why do you say that?" ”

At this time, Jiang Shuai remembered what Zhou Xiaoqian said that Jiang Lang took her to a strange room, a long case, a small bronze figure, an incense burner, etc., and the word "witchcraft" suddenly popped out of his mind, he gasped, and said in a cold tone: "As I expected, it was your Jiang Lang who killed you with his own hands, and when you were unprepared, he killed you with a knife from behind, and sealed it in a bottle when your soul has not left your body." And your corpse is thrown into the coffin, the blood flows out of your body, it flows in the coffin, the bottle is in the coffin, and over time, your own blood soaks the bottle......"

As he spoke, Jiang Shuai shut his mouth suddenly, he found that Zhou Xiaoqian's expression was not quite right, it was normal at first, but when he heard him say "being thrown into the coffin", his face suddenly distorted, and his facial muscles kept twitching.

Jiang Shuai thought that the other party was too emotional after hearing how he was killed, and was about to be relieved, when suddenly, he saw Zhou Xiaoqian suddenly open her arms, her five fingers grew violently, and she screamed: "What Gongzi said is good, today, your death date has arrived!" ”

After speaking, his body turned upwards and pounced viciously at Jiang Shuai.

Jiang Shuai was stunned directly, what happened? Zhou Xiaoqian: What's wrong? Actually...... Viciously pounced on me Jiang Shuai, is there a mistake!

Before he could react, he saw Zhou Xiaoqian jump up from the ground, stretch out her arms, spread her hands, and her ten fingers suddenly became long and sharp, and they quickly grabbed Jiang Shuai's forehead.

And, almost at the same time, Zhou Xiaoqian's face changed greatly, no longer her original face, but became another face: her face was dark, eyeing her fiercely, and there was a striking beard around her chin, like a steel needle.

It's incredible!

In an instant, Zhou Xiaoqian actually changed into a person, she was originally a woman, but now she has become a man!

Jiang Shuai didn't have time to be surprised, and he didn't have time to dodge, he was stunned by the sudden change, only in a daze, how could he dodge?

Precisely, when the other party's ten fingers were less than two centimeters away from Jiang Shuai's forehead, I saw several golden lights suddenly burst out from his pocket, and the ten fingers that were about to fall on Jiang Shuai's forehead were illuminated by these golden lights, as if the yang was about to succeed but instantly yangwei, and fell down weakly.

At the same time, these several golden rays of light were like an initiation, which instantly made Jiang Shuai react, and he hurriedly retreated quickly.

At the same time as Jiang Shuai retreated, he saw that the black figure of the human figure that rushed towards him gradually faded in the opposite direction.

Now, Jiang Shuai could see clearly, although the silhouette of the humanoid black shadow that was fading backwards was a little blurred, but in the shadows, he could see that the other party was a warrior in armor with a fierce look in his eyes.

This made Jiang Shuai stunned, and suddenly recalled the dream he had while lying on the bed, to be exact, he couldn't remember that dream anymore, maybe there was such a scene in his mind: a samurai in armor, holding a big knife in his hand, glaring at him viciously.

What a coincidence, how could the silhouette of this humanoid figure that had just faded so similar to the scene that had appeared in my mind before?

"Childe, what happened to you just now?"

Jiang Shuai looked at it and saw Zhou Xiaoqian looking at her strangely, as if she didn't know anything about what had just happened.

What's going on?

Jiang Shuai looked down at his pocket, stretched out his hand and touched it inward, only to see that the ancient jade that had just burst out with several golden rays of light had returned to its original state.

The samurai-like figure had vanished completely, and everything had returned to calm as if nothing had happened at all.

Jiang Shuai was stunned for a moment, and suddenly thought of a possibility: he had a hallucination just now!

It may be due to being too nervous.

It may also be due to the fact that brain cells are too active and are always in a high state of excitement.

Looking at Zhou Xiaoqian again, she was still standing calmly in place, looking at Jiang Shuai with a puzzled expression.

"I'm sorry, I should have hallucinated just now, I thought you were that, that demon......" gaffe in front of the beauties, making Jiang Shuai feel very faceless, he wanted to find himself a step down, who knows, before he finished speaking, his mouth was closed: I saw that the humanoid black shadow that had just faded turned into a vicious face when he left the window, and in the hazy night, the fierce gaze made people shudder, and what was even more unbelievable was that a voice came into Jiang Shuai's eardrums very clearly: "I'm going to make you a ghost!" Become a ghost! ”

There was an indescribable fear in this voice, Jiang Shuai felt his heart tremble suddenly, and when he dared to look out the window again, the vicious face disappeared!

At this time, Zhou Xiaoqian looked at Jiang Shuai even more puzzled, with a concerned look, and asked, "Childe, what's wrong with you?" Isn't there something uncomfortable? ”

As she spoke, she took two steps closer and naturally raised her hand, as if she wanted to touch Jiang Shuai.

In fact, this action is completely subconscious, a very natural action, no matter who sees that the other party needs help, they will subconsciously make this action. So, it's not worth the fuss at all.

However, Jiang Shuai was very moved. To tell the truth, he has not talked about his girlfriend since he went to school, first, his appearance is too average, and he is not handsome, secondly, he is from the countryside, his family is not rich, and when he goes to college, in addition to providing the most basic living expenses, the family has no extra money for him, so there is no money to talk about a girlfriend.

Therefore, when Zhou Xiaoqian stretched out her hand with great concern, Jiang Shuai was very moved, although the other party is not a real person, just a soul, but the soul represents thinking and can best reflect a person's morality. From the simple action of the other party, it can be seen that Zhou Xiaoqian was a kind woman before her death.

In today's materialistic society, which is not looking at money, there are very few women who are beautiful and beautiful!

When Zhou Xiaoqian's hand reached in front of him, Jiang Shuai looked down, wow! He was immediately stunned: the other party's hand was white and tender, this was a naturally beautiful hand!

He involuntarily grabbed at the other's hand.

I grabbed it, but I missed it.

Jiang Shuai reacted at this time, the other party was a soul, and Zhou Xiaoqian standing in front of him was just a shadow, how could he catch the other party's hand.

Zhou Xiaoqian didn't think much about Jiang Shuai's behavior, she still asked in a concerned tone: "Childe, you don't seem to be right, is there something uncomfortable?" ”

"Oh," Jiang Shuai retracted his hand, and after being stunned, he suddenly figured it out: the samurai he saw just now, with his demonic face, his vicious gaze, and his terrifying voice...... It should all be evil spirits that remain in the air, that is, things that are not clean.

Thinking of the hair fluttering in the air, the blood of the dead, and the yellow talisman painted with strange symbols, Jiang Shuai has reason to believe that the bottle used to lock Zhou Xiaoqian's soul is very weird, it has been carefully designed by people with witchcraft, it can't be touched, if you touch it, something will happen, don't fuck me Jiang Shuai because he used a fruit knife to drum for a long time and became poisonous. Nine-zero look

So, there must be something very yin inside the bottle, that is, something that is not clean, or something like evil spirits. After the bottle was kicked and shattered, the invisible thing hidden inside the bottle was released into the air, so the unbelievable scene just now appeared.

The reason why Zhou Xiaoqian's face was distorted and became vicious and terrifying at the beginning was because unclean things were attached to her soul.

O wise evil spirit!

Jiang Shuai secretly took a cool breath, he put his hand into his pocket, touched the piece of ancient jade, and secretly rejoiced and relieved in his heart: Good baby, if it wasn't for it just now, maybe what the consequences would be!

Now it can be concluded that the strangely shaped ancient jade in the pocket of the coat is a treasure that specializes in overcoming yin qi, and this can be concluded from the black shadow that opened its teeth and claws just now, and the ancient jade burst out several golden rays of light to repel the other party.

The one named Jiang Lang, Leng Buding killed Zhou Xiaoqian with a knife from behind, and trapped Zhou Xiaoqian's soul in the bottle with witchcraft, why he did this is unknown, what is puzzling is that why he didn't take the jade on Zhou Xiaoqian's body? Why did you let this yang-filled treasure accompany Zhou Xiaoqian to lie in the coffin in the ancient tomb for hundreds of years?

All these thoughts flashed in his mind, and seeing Zhou Xiaoqian looking at him with concern, Jiang Shuai smiled slightly and said, "I have an intuition, I'm afraid I can't get out of your affairs." ”

When Jiang Shuai said this, although there was a smile on his face, there was an inexplicable sense of fear in his heart, and at the same time, his back was also cold.

He had a gut feeling: something is wrong! It's a big deal!

After the yin poison in his body, he knew that it was not good, and he didn't say what poison it was, how toxic it was, whether it was easy to cure or not, just the words that the last vicious face said when he left the window were enough to make Jiang Shuai's heart tremble: "I want to turn you into a ghost!" Become a ghost! ”

It's horrible!

Jiang Shuai had a strong premonition that Zhou Xiaoqian's killing and her soul being locked in a bottle was a conspiracy, a big conspiracy, and the main body of this conspiracy was Zhou Xiaoqian's soul.

In other words, once Zhou Xiaoqian's soul was released, the conspiracy was revealed, so the guy who used witchcraft hundreds of years ago (most likely that Jiang Lang) was most worried about his elaborate plan being revealed.

And it was precisely because Jiang Shuai kicked the bottle in frustration after being poisonous, and this kick released Zhou Xiaoqian's soul from the bottle. One kick, the conspiracy was exposed.

Therefore, it attracted the resentment of the other party, this "other party" is none other than the guy who killed Zhou Xiaoqian more than 600 years ago and trapped his soul in the bottle with witchcraft.

Most likely, it is "Jiang Lang".

Judging from the scene that just happened, Jiang Lang should be a samurai, a samurai in armor.

"I'm going to turn you into a ghost! Become a ghost! ”

What a terrible sound, paralysis! It's so paralyzing!

Jiang Shuai had an intuition that the warrior wearing armor, who was called Jiang Lang by Zhou Xiaoqian, should have been a military general in the Ming Dynasty more than 600 years ago, a military general with high martial arts and brave combat.

If he can cross over, Jiang Shuai is willing to travel back now, find that "Jiang Lang", and ask him in person, are you fucking sick, what a good woman Zhou Xiaoqian is, you actually killed her in a frenzy, and made some messy witchcraft to trap her soul, what a lot of hatred! How did she offend you!

"Childe, I'm sorry! I'm the one who bothered you! ”

Seeing Zhou Xiaoqian looking at himself apologetically, Jiang Shuai knew that the other party had misunderstood, just now he just casually said "can't get rid of it", the other party must have understood this sentence as "even involvement", he waved his hand and said: "It's not a secret, at the beginning, I didn't know that your soul was locked in the bottle, after I got this bottle from the ghost market, I just wanted to pick up the leak and make a fortune, and I released your soul for a long time, which is purely crooked." ”

"Now, even if I Jiang Shuai wants to get out, I can't take it off, because I've been poisoned, alas! I don't know what poison is, it should be yin poison! ”

Speaking of this, Jiang Shuai stopped, he looked at Zhou Xiaoqian, hoping that the other party would say words of comfort and encouragement, such as, "It turns out that Childe is a man who does things above board", "It doesn't matter, Xiaoqian will accompany Childe through the difficulties", "With Xiaoqian accompanying Childe, everything will be fine." "Wait

Who knows, Zhou Xiaoqian's pair of good-looking eyebrows frowned, she didn't know what she was thinking thoughtfully, after a while, she saw her raise her head and say to Jiang Shuai apologetically: "It's all my fault for making trouble for my son." ”

Jiang Shuai said in his heart, this trouble you have caused me is not ordinary, if I can't get it right, I'm afraid that I will worry about my life. However, the matter has come to this point, there is no way, instead of being afraid of worrying, it is better to be generous, he smiled reluctantly, and said: "Fate, this is called fate!"

This sentence is full of emotion, at this time, in the dark, Jiang Shuai felt that there must be some kind of fate with Zhou Xiaoqian, as for how this fate came about, it is unknown, maybe it is a matter of the previous life, or a matter of the previous life, no matter what, only by cooperating with Zhou Xiaoqian to "fight" in front of him can it be possible to overcome difficulties.

"I think the top priority now is to find my body," without waiting for Jiang Shuai to speak, Zhou Xiaoqian analyzed, "After finding my body, it is possible to figure out the truth of what happened back then." I have a hunch that there may be a big secret in the place where my body is buried, and only by knowing that secret can I remove the poison in Childe's body, and I can also know what happened back then. ”

"Xiaoqian, I agree with your words," Jiang Shuai looked at the other party appreciatively, "But, where is your body?" Where, exactly, is the tomb where you are buried, that is, the coffin, where the bottle is placed? ”

After speaking, he stared at Zhou Xiaoqian's face for a full moment, and added with luck: "Don't you have any impression at all?" ”

"Except for Jiang Lang and the ancient jade in your pocket, I can't think of anything else."

"So, if you look back and remember, what does Jiang Lang look like, and what is his name?"

"I don't know, I don't remember."

"Historical mystery," Jiang Shuai smiled bitterly and said, "Whether this mystery can be solved depends on my ability, if it goes well, everything is OK, otherwise, I am afraid that my life will be taken." Alas, where to start? ”

"You still have to tie the bell to the bell, why doesn't Childe go to the person who sells the bottle?"

Like an initiation, Zhou Xiaoqian's words suddenly reminded Jiang Shuai. That's right, the bottle was bought from the ghost market, from the old man with reading glasses, and I have to go to him! He must be found!

Only by finding the old man can you know where the bottle came from, and you will definitely be able to find the source of the bottle all the way. In other words, it must be known from which tomb the bottle was made.

Of course, "get" is an implicit statement, to put it bluntly, it is robbery, tomb robbery.

There is no doubt that the bottle was stolen by tomb robbers from a coffin inside an ancient tomb.

Thinking of this, Jiang Shuai suddenly became excited, like a person who was about to drown inadvertently grabbed a life-saving straw.

Next, Zhou Xiaoqian's words made him even more relieved.

"Childe, I can see that this piece of jade is very helpful to you, so I'll let you leave it here."

It's really empathetic, Jiang Shuai secretly sighed, if it weren't for the effect of this piece of jade in his pocket, the evil spirit attached to Zhou Xiaoqian's body would definitely be a vicious and fatal blow to himself, if the other party succeeds, I'm afraid that Jiang Shuai will become a ghost now!

Don't be in a hurry to sell the jade first, if you don't do it, it is related to your net worth and life. Jiang Shuai knew that the strangely shaped ancient jade in his pocket had a protective effect on yin things, and putting it in his underwear pocket could not only relieve yin poison, but also protect against external unclean things.

"Xiao Qian, the jade is yours, I will keep it for you for the time being, and I will return it to you sooner or later." Jiang Shuai said politely, and when he was about to say something more, he saw that the other party's originally fluttering body suddenly became a lot lighter, as if a gust of wind suddenly blew in from outside the window, blowing Zhou Xiaoqian's soul away.

"Childe, it's going to be dawn, Xiaoqian will say goodbye." Zhou Xiaoqian's face suddenly turned sallow, and she looked weak when she spoke.

"It's dawn?" Jiang Shuai looked out the window and saw that far to the east, a bright light pierced the darkness and was slowly rising.

Yin and Yang are two worlds, and when the sun rises, the Yin world will naturally retreat.

Jiang Shuai knew that he couldn't keep it, but once the other party left, when would he appear again, he hurriedly asked Zhou Xiaoqian: "When will I be able to see you again?" ”

"Take care of the jade in your pocket, as long as it's there, I'll come back to you at any time."

At this moment, in the distance, there was a faint sound "Oh oh~~" This is the sound of a rooster crowing, which means that it is dawn.

Almost at the same time, Zhou Xiaoqian's soul turned into a light smoke and disappeared without a trace in an instant.

Jiang Shuai looked at the windowsill for a long time, then subconsciously raised his hand and rubbed his eyes, he felt that everything that happened was like a dream, and just now Zhou Xiaoqian's soul disappeared, and the dream seemed to have woken up.

Through the window, you can see that the far east is getting brighter and brighter, once the sun rises, the darkness will quietly disappear by itself, yin and yang dominate the world, you sing and I appear, endlessly reincarnated.

He was stunned for a long time, and it wasn't until the room was completely illuminated by the morning light that Jiang Shuai finally came back to his senses. He looked at the corner of the wall, the bottle that had been broken by the kick had already turned into a pile of fragments, scattered and incomplete, and when he approached, he leaned over to see that the hair that had appeared in the bottle had disappeared, and there were some black stains on the ground.

Apparently, the black stain was the blood of a dead person that had previously flowed out of the bottle.

Jiang Shuai put his hand into his coat pocket and took out the jade very carefully, he re-observed this piece of jade, this piece of jade has all the eyebrows, carved into the shape of a moth, vivid, but the lower end of the jade, that is, the tail of the moth, has a tail, bent into a roll, curled up.

Looking at the color of the jade, it is no longer bright red, but has returned to its original color: green and faint, with a faint crystal light.

After another look, Jiang Shuai put the jade back into his pocket, even if this thing is a priceless treasure, it can't be sold now, his body has been poisoned, and there is jade on his body, which can ensure that he is safe for the time being. Moreover, this piece of jade and Zhou Xiaoqian have spiritual connections, as long as the jade is on her body, Zhou Xiaoqian can come back at any time, otherwise, she will really become a wild spirit.

"To be a responsible man, a manly man, and do what he says." Jiang Shuai said this to himself in his heart.

He knew very well that there was only one thing to do now: go back to the ghost market and find the old man who sold the bottles.

The only way to find the seller, inquire about the provenance of the bottle, and then follow the vine to find the tomb where the bottle was found, is the only way.

Only by finding the ancient tomb can it be possible to find the coffin, and the coffin containing the bottle can find Zhou Xiaoqian's body.

After finding the body, the historical mystery that happened more than 600 years ago can be clarified.

Of course, even if the coffin containing the bottle is found, will the cause of Zhou Xiaoqian's death be clarified, to be honest, Jiang Shuai has no bottom in his heart.

In fact, what he really cares about is whether Zhou Xiaoqian can come back to life.

If Zhou Xiaoqian can be resurrected, then, that's really great, it's me Jiang Shuai who saved her and saved a standard classical beauty, how can she repay me? Of course...... Make a promise!

Thinking of this, Jiang Shuai couldn't help but have a smile on his face.
