【022】An ancient story
At the soul transit station, Xiao Ming had a good night's sleep. In the dream, he heard the master shouting, and when he woke up, sure enough, the master sent a message informing him that he was going back with a rigid ghost, and asked him to go to the door to guide the way, so he hurriedly lifted the paper lantern and went forward.
Zhong Kui's face was gloomy, and he guided the ghost who had already controlled his mental power to the door. As soon as he saw that Xiao Ming had already lifted the lantern and came over, he nodded speechlessly and walked straight in.
Facing Zhang Yi, who once had a one-sided relationship, Zhong Kui was speechless. When he brought this ghost over just now, he seemed to hear Ran Qin calling his name.
Just because I once promised black and white impermanence, during the mission, there will be no confusion about real events. So when Ran Qin shouted emotionally, he hardened his heart and did not reply to the other party's shout.
Zhang Yi died of hemorrhagic shock, and all the blood in his body was lost with the family heirloom, so his face was so white that it seeped white.
Black and white impermanence came after Xiao Ming burned incense, and instead of judging the ghost as he had done the previous times, he had to take it directly to the underworld.
Xiao Ming felt strange, when the black and white impermanence had not left, he held back his curiosity and did not dare to say more. It wasn't until he saw the black and white impermanence shaking the chains and pulling away the ghost that he asked anxiously, "Master, is this time different from the previous times?" ”
Zhong Kui shook his head and smiled bitterly: "This ghost is still paying off the debts of previous lives, and in his previous lives, one of them was a eunuch. ”
"Oh! Can eunuchs be reincarnated as humans? ”
Zhong Kui said: "After a person dies, his reputation, status, and property can only be given up, and only the soul remains. Most souls embark on a new journey, passing through the Nai Ho Bridge, drinking Meng Po soup and reincarnating again. ”
"Well, I heard my mother say that she can't remember anything after drinking Meng Po soup." Xiao Mingtuo rolled his cheeks in his eyes and said with a very old-fashioned look.
Zhong Kui smiled approvingly: "Yes! But not everyone has this privilege and can travel on the journey of reincarnation. It depends on whether you pollute your pure soul after walking in the real world, carrying with you the distractions and greed and killing intentions that you shouldn't have in the human world. If there is, you will be punished accordingly, that is to say, from a person's life to death, how to keep one's soul forever pure, this is the minimum standard and purpose of life. ”
"It feels so complicated." Xiao Ming said a little impatiently.
"Let me tell you this! Zhang Yi, you don't know him, and I don't know either, but there is someone who knows ......" Speaking of this, Zhong Kui paused, and secretly wondered if he should tell Zhang Yi and Ran Qin what they knew.
"Who?" The deeper he said, the more Xiao Ming wanted to know the truth. Especially when the master said that the ghost had come from a eunuch in his previous life, he wanted to know more about the cause and effect. In his heart, the master is a supernatural power, and he knows everything, including the past and present lives of ghosts.
But there is another layer of Xiao Ming that is not clear, because in the roster record written by the soul hook, the past and present life of the ghost are recorded in detail. The points of good and evil, whether or not you owe the debt of your past life or something, are all recorded.
But the roster written by Hook Soul can only be understood by Zhong Kui. This is all a heavenly opportunity, and it can't be leaked out at will, but since Xiao Ming is curious, he thinks it's okay to talk about it.
What Xiao Ming saw in Xiao Ming was just a yellowed and very worn thread-bound book. He had no idea that this worn-out thread-bound book hid a lot of secrets that could not be revealed.
Zhong Kui hesitated for a moment but still told the truth about the relationship between Ran Qin and Zhang Yi.
He said; "Zhang Yi's previous life was decades ago, or even a hundred years ago. It is possible that he is a person who is arrogant and domineering, has a high position, and is a chief eunuch above 10,000 people under one person. ”
And Ran Qin has a deep and complex relationship with him.
Xiao Ming's mouth opened wide when he heard this, and he looked at the master with a very focused expression.
"In Ran Qin's previous life, when Zhang Yi was a eunuch, she was a suffering palace maid. There are many eunuchs and maids in the palace, and they are confined in the palace for a long time, unable to live a normal family life, and are bored, resulting in a deformity. ”
"Can't they go out of the palace to be with their families?"
"The palace maid entered the palace by herself, death is a ghost in the palace, and life is a bird in the palace. They are in the palace, and if they don't get the emperor's favor, they will be alone until they grow old. Eunuchs can also start a family, and eunuchs who have a family are all powerful people who can speak up and down the government and the opposition. They comfort each other for loneliness, everyone is in love in private, they can't share a bed, they just eat relatively and comfort each other's loneliness. ”
"Oh! That ghost just now, he didn't seem to make a mistake, right? Xiao Ming looked at the master with a worried look and said.
Zhong Kui sighed heavily and said, "He was wrong...... The fault is in the previous life......"
"......" Xiao Ming was stunned and didn't say anything, expecting the master to continue talking.
"It's not suitable for children below, I won't talk about it." Zhong Kui stopped talking, leaned up, and walked a few steps to look at Xiao Ming. The kid was still staring at him. "Poof! Still want to hear it? ”
The chicken pecked at the rice-pecking nod: "Mm-hmm!" ”
“…… All right! I'll tell you, but you have to promise me that you won't tell anyone else about it in the future. ”
"Uh-huh!"
"Eunuchs can't be humane, so they try to satisfy their desires. And the poor palace maid, stripped off her clothes, stripped and tied up on a long stool, holding the candlestick in her hand, and dripping the hot candle tears into their place...... "At this point, Zhong Kui's face turned from black to red, as if he was about to drip blood.
Xiao Ming blinked and looked at the master, "Where is the drop?" After the questioning, he looked at Zhong Kui with a very expectant look.
"You little devil, break the casserole and ask the hell, you want to kill me?" Zhong Kui refused to continue. I feel like it's still early today, so I can rest early. Be prepared to take care of your spirits before you can go to work tomorrow.
Xiao Ming, the ghost elf, saw that the master had talked about the key point, so he stopped talking about it, so he was so anxious that he scratched his ears and cheeks, and rolled his eyes in contemplation...... Glancing at the thread-bound book. With a flash of surprise on his face, he got up and grabbed the thread-bound book, translated and read it randomly...... He was dumbfounded when he flipped through it, except for the red tick on the thread-bound book. There is no other record at all, not even a small line of hints.
Glimpsing Xiao Ming's anxious appearance, Zhong Kui couldn't help but laugh, snatched the thread-bound book and scolded: "You little brat, how can you understand the mystery here?" ”
"Master, you ......"
"How?"
"There's nothing written on it, is there? Just a tick ......"
"Mao! You know! It's weird. ”
"Well, Master taught me!"
"I didn't understand it to you, okay! I'll tell you simple and easy to understand, listen up! When we complete a task, it will show the task to be performed the next day when the hour comes. ”
Xiao Ming nodded as if he didn't understand.
"It's good to get it." Zhong Kui perfunctory Xiao Ming, he categorically would not tell the story of the eunuch's wax dripping on the palace maid's chest and private parts. In his previous life, Zhang Yi abused the palace maids, wantonly trampled on their souls and flesh, and escaped countless times from the Yin Priest and the black-and-white impermanence of the locked soul to repay the debt.
