Chapter 1221, the fragrance of the sky
Recently, Qin Kun felt that he was on the same page as the boat.
I just came back from a boat, and I'm going to go to sea by boat.
To be honest, he had little interest in taking a boat. People who are in a hurry are not suitable for this slow way of traveling.
In fact, the cruise speed is not slow, but there is no reference around, so it seems so slow.
At night at sea, there is a sense of loneliness and claustrophobia.
I can see the stars today, but in addition, there is nothing in the four directions, and the cruise ship is brightly lit, but it is like a drop in the ocean, small and pitiful.
"Brother Kun, the scenery here is so beautiful......"
On the deck, the cow stared at the starry sky.
For a ghostly pawn, he may not have the opportunity to see the stars on the sea in his lifetime.
Seeing the obsession of Niu Meng's look, the skinning ghost held the grass branch in his mouth and flattened his mouth: "That's it, Brother Niu, I didn't find you so elegant when I was in Linjiang." ”
"You know a fart, the starry sky on the sea is not the same as on land."
Niu Meng looked at the skin with disdain, with this kind of rough embryo, the words are not speculative.
Peeling looked at the ghosts around him with a bitter face: "Is he evil?" ”
Ma Lie next to him leaned over with his head held high: "Lao Niu used to like to hang out with that group of vassal and elegant Confucian ghosts. Don't like others to have a personal hobby? ”
Ma Lie also gave a blank look, and left with Niu Meng, leaving the skinning alone to stand depressed in the wind, what kind of personal hobby is this, and temperament is not good at all.
The ghosts gathered next to Qin Kun to let out the wind, enjoying the tranquility of the sea, while Qin Kun lit a cigarette and blew the sea breeze, which didn't feel anything, but it was definitely not a relaxing feeling.
Behind the deck, there is a western restaurant, it is now half past ten in the evening, and there are still many people in the restaurant eating, or discussing in the name of eating.
A table of guests dispersed, and one of the men seemed to have noticed Qin Kun and walked out.
"Mr. Qin?" The man's voice was surprised.
Qin Kun narrowed his eyes, the other party was a big back, his expression was steady, he was about thirty years old, his eyebrows and eyes were very similar to an old friend, of course, this person was the son of that old friend.
"Feng Dong? Feng Qiang sent you? ”
The man in front of him was none other than Feng Dong, the son of Feng Qiang, one of the twelve investigators of the General Bureau of Spiritual Investigation.
Feng Dong followed his father to meet Qin Kun twice, and he also knew that Qin Kun's status in the General Bureau was extraordinary, he never knew how strong Qin Kun's strength was, but he didn't dare to slack off.
Hearing Qin Kun's question, Feng Dong was confused.
"Send me? What do you send me for? A while ago, I made a mistake in adjusting the relationship with the coastal gate, and my father asked me to go to sea to relax and reflect. Why is Mr. Qin here? ”
When Feng Dong came over, he suddenly shuddered, turned around suddenly, and a phantom disappeared.
Feng Dong was in a cold sweat: "Evil mourning? Mr. Qin, the phantom just now...... It's your ghost, isn't it? ”
Qin Kun smiled, did not mention the ghost errand, but looked at Feng Dong with a serious face: What a stupid son of the bureaucratic family. I've come here, but I don't know what kind of place this is.
"I also go to sea to relax." Qin Kundao.
"I heard that this cruise ship was chartered by a wealthy businessman, how did you get up?" Feng Dong asked curiously.
"What about you?" Qin Kun asked rhetorically.
"A friend of mine invited me here. You should know, Yangcheng Teke, Fang Hao. ”
"Coincidentally, Kanto Teke, Nie Yuxuan invited me here."
Having said this, no matter how stupid Feng Dong was, he could hear something.
Fang Hao and Nie Yuxuan are both generals in the Spiritual Investigation Department, no matter how coincidental they are, they will not be interested in a cruise ship at the same time.
He lowered his voice and said, "Mr. Qin, you and your father are equals, although I don't know when you established your friendship. But I think of you as an uncle in my heart, so you leaked the news to me. What kind of ship is this? Why am I here? ”
As soon as Qin Kun heard it, he knew that Feng Dong didn't go to today's banquet, and the Longmen Society belonged to the affairs of the rivers and lakes, so it was normal not to let him in. However, since there was an old one, Qin Kun didn't mind telling Feng Dong something.
After telling him what he knew, Feng Dong understood.
After doing it for a long time, the purpose of being sent to relax, and to understand the situation of the Longmen Society.
Feng Dong smiled bitterly: "I'll just say why the funds for going to sea this time are public accounts, I used to think that my father was fake for public benefit, but now I understand it......"
Feng Dong is an upright young man, although he looks very similar to Feng Qiang back then, but he does not have Feng Qiang's temperament, in general, a decent person, Qin Kun is not close, but he does not hate it.
After chatting with Feng Dong for a while, he took his leave, and the nightly log was also one of the jobs of the investigators of the General Administration, and he had to go back to catch the log.
The deck was quiet again.
At 11 o'clock in the evening, Qin Kun stretched his waist and was about to go back to his room to rest, when he suddenly saw three thick plumes of smoke rushing into the night sky in the chimney of the cruise ship.
"Huh?"
Qin Kun's nose twitched, his brows furrowed, "The smell of incense?" ”
The sea breeze was mixed with the faint smell of incense, and Qin Kun was sure that he had not smelled it wrong.
What age is this, and the cruise ship shouldn't rely on burning incense, candles, and paper money, right?
Smoke billowed and the smell of incense was strong, and it was clear that a large amount of incense candle paper money had been ignited and turned to ashes in a short period of time.
"Brother Kun, the cruise ship is turning?"
Next to him, Niu Meng, who was watching the stars, felt that the starry sky was wrong, and opened his mouth to ask, and Qin Kun instantly opened the eye of the sky to look down.
The cruise ship is indeed turning and is making a U-turn in the direction of the full-bodied drift!
Suddenly, as far as the eye of the sky could reach, Qin Kun found that near the bow and bilge of the ship, there were more than a dozen lifeboats bolted into a line and floated away along the water, and there were people lying on those lifeboats.
Dead person?
His face was blue and black, he was dressed in a shroud, covered with a quilt, and had a big word written on it.
Their eyes were gouged out, and there was a night pearl embedded in their eyes and mouths, and their faces became more and more gloomy!
Eighteen corpses!
Qin Kun quickly came to the guest room and knocked on a door.
"Master Qin? Is there an urgent matter when you suddenly visit in the middle of the night? ”
The one who opened the door was the big fisherman of Wuzhou Fishing Building, the old man Xun Songxun.
Qin Kun got straight to the point: "Old Man Xun, please tell me what happened to the eighteen corpses?" ”
There is no preface, no afterword, just ask. Qin Kun didn't think this kind of thing, the other party didn't understand.
Xun Song was stunned for a moment, and only sighed after a while: "On the night of the Dragon Gate, eighteen sacrifices to the sea corpse." Don't get me wrong, those are all disciples of Yulong Mountain who have died in the past hundred years. The corpse was frozen and stored, just waiting for the Dragon Gate to be opened. Ordinary disciples are not qualified to sacrifice to the sea. ”
The sect of the Dao of Life and Death also has its own rituals, and the ritual of Yulong Mountain is the corpses of these sacrifices to the sea when the Longmen Meeting is held.
As a funeral practitioner, Qin Kun does not approve of this, but he has no objection, if it is a rule handed down, if no one objects, if the deceased agrees before his death, Qin Kun does not feel that there is anything wrong with doing so.
The eye of heaven was in the sky outside the cabin, and seeing eighteen corpses drifting away with the waves, Qin Kun retracted his thoughts and looked at Xun Song: "You just said that these sacrificial sea corpses are open to the spirit gate?" ”
Opening the spirit pass means that the next step is to take the yin road!
For the first time, Qin Kun heard that there was also a spiritual pass on the sea!
Xun Song nodded.
"It is difficult to find the spirit on the sea, and it is necessary to incense the sky and sacrifice the sea corpse. Since you have seen the sacrificial sea corpse, you should have also seen the three pillars of incense, right? ”
Under the eye of the sky, the pillar of smoke in the chimney rushed into the starry sky, and the smoke billowed out, Qin Kun couldn't help but nod.
It turns out that this cigarette is used like this.
