Ling Zheng and I returned to Nanwu Village, and Ling Xiaoman stayed in Shanghai, taking care of his parents. I originally planned to wait for Ling Xiaoman to come back after settling down in Nanwu Village, but now Ling Zheng doesn't remember us, and his personality has become very indifferent, and in the past few days, he hasn't spoken to me for more than twenty words, so I thought about it, this situation is not very suitable for picking up Ling Xiaoman back, or let Ling Xiaoman play in Shanghai for a while.

Grandma's body has almost recovered, Jin Shiyi and Yan Xiangci also came to play with us as usual and brought us delicious food, but no one has eaten the melon seeds brought by Yan Xiangci, and the people who like to eat melon seeds have not come back yet.

I couldn't find the tomb of King Ling, and Lingzheng was not interested in looking for it, so he sat in the courtyard all day long, reading books and drinking tea...... Whatever I told him, he said, "No!" And then there was nothing more.

We stayed at home like this for more than a week, and we came up with a list. The son-in-law of the village chief was suddenly hit by a car and died, the son-in-law's name is Zhang Ye, a native of Hunan, it is said that according to Zhang Ye's customs, the young man is to be buried back to his hometown after his death, although Hubei and Hunan are next to each other, but from our Nanwu Village to Zhangjia Village of Zhang Ye is also hundreds of kilometers away, so during this time, the corpse is easy to change, so the village chief wants to find his grandmother to help send Zhang Ye's body back to Zhangjia Village, Hunan.

My grandmother was old and didn't want to take this job, so I thought that it wouldn't take long to escort the corpse, and the village chief gave a lot of compensation, so we couldn't just sit back and eat nothing, so I took it myself. My grandmother didn't say anything to me, she just told me to be careful.

I packed a few things and prepared to leave, Shen Yan and Jin Shiyi wanted to come with me to help me, I didn't be polite to them, and the three of them went to the village chief's house together.

Lingzheng I didn't ask him at all, and I knew with my toes that he wouldn't go.

There was a small truck parked in front of the village chief's house, the kind that can sit in the carriage, and there was an uncle about fifty years old in the driver's seat, and the village chief said that this uncle was also from Zhangjia Village, knew the road, and specially drove over to take us there. Zhang Ye's body has already been boarded in the car and is waiting for us.

The three of us sat in the back of the car and were about to close the door, when Lingzheng and Yan Xiangci came together.

Yan Xiangci wished us a safe journey, and then told me that if he met the tomb of King Ling on the way, he would help him get the jade pendant back by the way. I'm really curious, what kind of jade pendant is Yan Xiangci, the tomb of King Ling has been occupied for so long and has not been returned, Yan Xiangci said that he doesn't know exactly what the jade pendant is, it was handed down by his ancestors.

"Yang jade, in ancient times, there were two jades, yin and yang, which can control the dead and the living."

The spirit standing aside suddenly opened his mouth to explain to us.

I smiled, I'm a little used to being silent these days, and I'm really a little uncomfortable with him suddenly taking the initiative to talk to us today.

Several of us were silent for a while, and in the end, it was Jin Shiyi who broke the embarrassment, and he said to Yan Xiangci, "Team Yan, your Yangyu is so powerful, but you must find that big guy to come back." Yan Xiangci nodded, turned around and patted Lingzheng's shoulder: "Hard work." ”

"You're welcome." Lingzheng replied with two words, threw the big backpack on his back into the car first, and then raised his feet and got into the carriage, looking at me, Shen Yan moved a little more cooperatively, Lingzheng sat down next to me generously, I looked at him in surprise, he glanced at me lightly, and said, "Go find someone, by the way." ”

"Oh...... "It's really unexpected for Lingzheng to come, I'm so happy."

Shen Yan and Jin Shiyi glanced at each other, laughed very tacitly, and Yan Xiangci patted the door of the carriage: "Xiaojin, pay attention to safety all the way, call me if you have something." ”

Jin Shiyi replied: "I know Team Yan." ”

Yan Xiangci was satisfied with the door of the carriage for us, and the village chief said some kind words to us at the front window, and then explained some things to the car driver. The car slowly drove out of Nanwu Village.

Shen Yan pushed Jin Shiyi's arm: "Second goods, you are a little forensic doctor, why do you have so much rest time?" ”

Jin Shiyi spread his hands: "Wronged, Xiao Yan'er, I'm on a mission, the Yan team suspects that Zhang Ye's death is not an accident, the village chief has filed a case in the bureau, I am disguised as a warlock to go to Zhangjia Village to check, the vanguard sent by the Yan team has already set off." ”

"Yo? You strict team investigation cases can still play like this. ”

"Of course...... There are more tricks, maybe, the street vendors you saw, and the aunts who set up stalls, are all members of our strict team. ”

I couldn't help but praise: "Officer Yan is so powerful." ”

Jin Shiyi nodded violently: "That's pretty powerful...... Do you remember being in Jiangxin Town? Team Yan is ...... Ouch, Third Master Ling, why are you stepping on me? ”

The Spirit sat there expressionless, not knowing what he was thinking.

Shen Yan hurriedly pulled Jin Shiyi's hand, attached it to Jin Shiyi's ear and whispered, "Talk less, do more." ”

"Huh? Oh, oh......" Kim Se-yi obediently closed his mouth.

It was a little dark in the carriage, and when my eyes had fully adjusted to the light, I stood up in the carriage to see what the night looked like. Lingzheng and I also took over the work of delivering corpses before, but when we arrived at the destination, we saw that the corpse was actually replaced by another corpse, it turned out that the corpse was occupied by the wild ghost we met on the way, and we walked away, and then replaced another corpse for us. That time, we also helped people find the body, and it took a lot of effort.

I'll have to look at it carefully this time.

The corpse stood in the corner on the right side of the carriage, and the corpse was covered with a black cloth that had been put on by the village chief before, so as to prevent people from seeing it as a corpse when it was outside. At this moment, I could only see that the corpse was a black shadow, with his hands hanging down, his shoulders shrugged slightly, and he did not move.

At that moment, the carriage shook suddenly, and my body fell to the right unconsciously.

"Be careful."

Lingzheng suddenly reached out and pulled me.

When I turned around, Lingzheng had let go of my hand, as if what he had just said to me was just a hallucination. However, I knew very well that it was not an illusion and that Lingzheng was still concerned about me. My heart suddenly warmed up, as if I had returned to the days when I went out with Lingzheng to pick up ghosts, which was exciting and warm.

I took off Zhang Ye's hood, looked at it, and then quickly put it back on, then sat back in my original seat, turned to Lingzheng and said, "Thank you." Lingzheng didn't reply, and looked at the carriage lightly.

Shen Yan was a little sleepy and leaned on Jin Shiyi's shoulder to take a nap, and Jin Shiyi gently ran Shen Yan's hair.

"Lingzheng ......" I looked at Lingzheng expectantly, he didn't respond to me for a long time, so I shouted twice, he finally hummed softly, I smiled, and said to him: "Can you also touch my hair like Jin Shiyi." "Lingzheng used to like to touch my hair like this, it's really full of happiness.

Ling Zheng glanced at it, and then directly refused: "Can't." ”

"Hmph...... I knew that was the answer.

Ling Zheng spread his hands evenly, and a faint white mist suddenly appeared in his palm, and in the mist, it seemed that something about twenty centimeters appeared in the white mist. I looked at the thing, and I felt a strange feeling in my heart, and I couldn't help but want to reach for it...... Suddenly, the spirit was dodging my touch and looked at me coldly, "Don't touch it." ”

I felt a pain in my heart, "Okay, okay, don't touch it, hehe......" I leaned back, carefully looked at the things in Lingzheng's hand, and suddenly the whole person was stunned, "Qing, Qingming ruler?" ”

Ling Zheng nodded slightly.

I thought about it for a moment and confirmed it again: "That...... Is this really a clear ruler? "Wasn't the Qingming ruler destroyed when he was in the Hall of Eternal Life? How did you come back again? Moreover, it has been restored to a completed one, but I don't know if the small seal on it is still there?

"Two lifetimes, three feet of lovesickness." I muttered, "Lingzheng, are the words still there?" ”

Lingzheng's slender fingertips flipped over, put away the Qingming ruler, and then put his hands on his chest, leaned his back on the carriage, closed his eyes, and ignored it again. I said a few more words, I felt bored, and then turned my head to go to Shen Yan to say a few words, Shen Yan and Jin Shiyi were talking and laughing, I couldn't interject at all, so I had to look out of the window in front of the driver boredly.

The truck was running very fast, I looked through the window and saw the big truck driving into the city, I don't know what city, then we changed trucks, and the truck turned onto the highway, and an hour later, it got off the highway and entered another city. We changed cars again, and then the cars didn't change, but the road gradually only turned to the dim street lights, and the inside of the car was even darker.

After two hours, it was getting dark.

I heard movement around me, and when I turned my head, I saw that the spirit was already standing up.

"Lingzheng, are you going to go further?" I also stood up, Lingzheng walked to the back of the car, and took off the cover on Zhang Ye's corpse, "I'll teach you to drive out the corpse now, see it clearly, just teach it once." I was overjoyed, nodded quickly, stood beside Lingzheng, and smiled.

Shen Yan and Jin Shiyi didn't go over, Jin Shiyi came to go on a mission, and Shen Yan was not interested in chasing corpses, so in the whole process of learning to chase corpses, Lingzheng only taught me one person.

Lingzheng took out a handful of herbs from his black backpack and told me to rub the herbs in my hands first, and then apply the herbs to several important joints of the corpse and massage them. After the massage, a small flesh worm is placed into the joints of the corpse. Speaking of this, Lingzheng took out a box from his backpack again, opened the box, there was a small meat worm in it, Lingzheng put the small meat worm in my palm, I suddenly screamed, my body reflexively jumped up, my head hit the carriage, and my eyes were glazed with pain. The little fleshworm was also thrown to the ground by me, making a muffled crackling sound.

"You're afraid of bugs?" Lingzheng asked me.

"No...... Don't be afraid......" I trembled and picked up the little meat worm, held back the nausea in my stomach, and put the little meat worm in the palm of my other hand. Ling Zheng took my hand and put the small meat worm on the joint of the corpse, and said as he put it, "This is an ordinary Gu worm, which can control the corpse to move freely. ”

"Oh, oh, okay......"

Lingzheng said again: "This kind of Gu worm can move muscles and ligaments without making the corpse stiff. The second is to chant mantras, which are divided into straight walking, raising corpses, avoiding dogs, and turning, which are different, and I will teach you now. ”

"Good, good!" I nodded in agreement.

Although I'm not afraid of ghosts, I'm afraid of insects, I've been afraid since I was a child!

But...... It's rare for Lingzheng to be so patient with me now, I can't cut off my own back path, I still have to behave normally. Well, yes, normal.

I suddenly thought that there is a rule for chasing corpses in Xiangxi, that is, corpse chasers must be ugly, because when people are ugly, ghosts will avoid them, so they will not snatch corpses to possess them. I thought so, so I said it casually, but Lingzheng didn't reply to me, but Shen Yan sneered and laughed: "Tang Chuyi, you are stupid enough, hahahaha...... Those are all rumors. Do you think, if you are handsome, can you do such a job as chasing corpses? It's dirty and tired to chase corpses, you have a beautiful face, what are you not doing well? To drive out corpses? Haha......"

"Oh, too, hehe." I couldn't help but laugh too.

After Shen Yan said this, the atmosphere in the carriage was not as dignified as before.

Lingzheng still whispered to me what to do with a dog when the corpse is encountered, and what kind of mantra to recite when it encounters a bend. - This corpse is very different from walking in the yin, those who can enter the line of walking in the yin are all talented people, which means that God is destined to do it, but the corpse is different, the corpse is a technical job, as long as you remember the key factors and spells, you can start work. As long as someone is willing to teach, ordinary people can also learn.
