Volume 2 Chapter 3 Ghost Incense Summons Spirits

It is not the first time that Baozi has come to the provincial capital, and the white eyes and cold treatment encountered in the provincial capital in 1984 are still fresh in my memory. The so-called bustle and bustle and the beauty of pearlescent glass have been replaced by that cold and snowy night. After Luo Xiurong resumed his treatment, he moved to a three-bedroom apartment provided by the university, and Baozi was arranged to live in the bungalow where Luo Xiurong once lived. The room was clean and simple, pots and pans and bedding were readily available, and Luo Xiurong deliberately left a large number of books for the buns before moving away. Baozi lay on the small bed where Lao Luo once lived, thinking back to the night when Luomen Lixue, how much he wanted to enter this warm room that night.

Roland was busy packing up outside, this girl was not the apple-faced little doll a few years ago, the bun leaned on the door frame, admiring Roland's long and beautiful figure, and the blue gauze skirt fit like it fit on her body. Baozi realizes that his current state of relationship with Roland is "appreciation", not love. Moreover, as long as he looked at Roland one more time, the shadow of a cabbage flower would clearly appear in the unlucky eyes of the sky, and she pointed to her nose and asked, "What are you looking at!" Believe it or not, the old lady gouged out your eyes! ”

Roland noticed that Baozi was looking at her, she raised her head and wiped the sweat from her forehead, "You just look at it like this, come and help!" ”

Baozi answered, and joined the work of sweeping the floor and wiping the table.

Roland picked up a book of poems casually, flipped through it and asked Baozi, "Do you know Haizi?" ”

Bun nodded, "Yes, poet." ”

Roland put his hands behind his back, walked to the window, and gently fiddled with the flower cloth curtains: "When I have no hope, sit down on a bunch of wheat and go home, please put my messy bones in place, put them in that dark red wooden cabinet, and bring them back like your rich dowry." ”

Baozi was confused when he heard it, he knew that this era was the era of poets, and poets were a group of people who spoke around the corner.

"Facing the sea, spring is blooming. From tomorrow onwards, be a happy person, feed the horses and chop firewood to travel around the world. From tomorrow I care about food and vegetables, I have a house, facing the sea, spring flowers bloom" Roland is immersed in the artistic conception of the poem, although Baozi also wants to achieve this artistic conception, but he really can't understand the profoundness. Baozi can explore the two worlds of immortals and underworlds, but he can't guess the heart of the human race.

Roland turned his head, "Brother Baozi, do you know what love is?" ”

Baozi heard the word "love" in Roland's mouth, and his face immediately turned red, even if he heard Cabbage Flower say words like "kiss the mouth, snort" ten thousand times, he was infinitely immune, but Roland Jiao's word "love" made him lose his proportion.

Roland frowned and said, "Brother Baozi, a boy in our class said that he loved me and wrote me a letter to fold a thousand paper cranes, but I think he doesn't love me, he just likes me." ”

"Is there a difference between liking and loving?" Baozi has never explored this concept deeply.

Roland looked out the window, "Maybe there is, maybe not, maybe love starts with liking, but when you don't love, you won't even like it." Brother Baozi, what do you say? ”

Baozi scratched his head, "According to my own thoughts, there is still a difference." To like is to be happy when you see this person, and love is to ..... It's uncomfortable not to see this person. Baozi remembered Huahua, he had just arrived in the provincial capital for a day, but his heart was full of emptiness, and he had a feeling of restlessness all the time.

"That's great, Brother Baozi, you are also a poet!" Roland's eyes lit up: "Some people say that love is to give people a feeling of depression, and your lover is the person who brings you depression." ”

Buns are afraid to discuss such issues. If 5,000 years ago, people didn't have to distinguish between liking and love, and when they met the woman they loved, they would have taken it home to live their lives, and they would have obeyed the way of heaven. But the human race is prosperous, there are more and more rules, and the marriage society makes people subject to unbridled requirements, and people need to carefully distinguish between love and like, and repeatedly consider it in order to make the best choice, because once you choose the wrong one, you will lose the opportunity to choose again, and the human race thinks that it will make civilization progress with its unique social rules, but it does not know that there are more troubles and melancholy. The Immortals believe that the Terrans are a self-righteous race, and they are accustomed to making simple things complicated. But they built the human civilization against the sky, so they caused the extinction of other species, and the human family became the dominant one, which also laid the foundation for the future of mankind itself. The Terran practices even affected the values of the Three Realms. Before, Baozi thought that the immortal clan, the underworld, and the dragon clan were all people who had attained the Tao with high cultivation, and they should be consistent and straightforward, but after intervening in so many disputes and melees, they found that they were also intriguing, seizing power and demolishing the stage, and most of them were bad problems caused by the immortals who were promoted in the lower realm.

Seeing that Baozi was in a daze again, Roland stabbed him coquettishly, "Hey! What about writing poetry? Hurry up and get to work. ”

"Oh" Baozi replied, grabbed the rag and threw it into the basin to wash. Roland continued to pack his bag, but as soon as he turned around, he suddenly tugged at the bag and said, "Hey, I know you have spells, but you can't be so lazy." ”

Baozi was surprised when he heard it: "Why am I lazy?" ”

Roland pointed to the corner of the wall, and saw a broom hanging upright in the air, automatically sweeping the ground, and sweeping very skillfully. The bun was shocked when he saw it, this house is not clean!

He dragged Roland to hide behind him, and asked in a low voice, "Has anyone died in this house before?" ”

Roland was frightened by his actions, but after all, he broke through Luding Mountain with Baozi, saw the ghost man in the red sweater and the old centipede, and was not too scared to see the broom sweeping the floor by herself, she replied in a low voice, "No, when I was exercising, this was the cowshed of the teacher's university, and I imprisoned a few cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods, but no one committed suicide." ”

The bun urged the eyes of the sky, and the person sweeping the floor with a broom in the corner of the wall slowly appeared in front of him clearly, the bun stood up straight, grabbed a rag and threw it over, "Xiao Yi!" What are you hiding with me! ”

"Listening to you two discuss the most profound problems of human beings, I don't dare to run out and disturb" Xiao Yi appeared, and said with a smile, "I guess you lack a companion reading boy, so I'm not here." ”

Roland burst out laughing, "Do you really think of the bun as the boy who rushed to the exam?" I am also accompanied by a reading child, but my family does not have your bunk. ”

Xiao Yi smiled even more happily, "It's okay, I'm big or small, I'm not afraid of cold and heat, and I can sleep in the water tank on the beam." ”

Baozi pretended to be angry and asked Xiao Yi, "You kid doesn't have a good way to come, say, whoever asked you to come, if you don't say it, I'll stuff you in the trash can and sleep"

Xiao Yi scratched his head, and had no choice but to admit, "Sister Hua is urging me to come and take a look, mainly let me stare at you and Sister Roland, don't kiss or anything." ”

Roland's face flushed with shame, and without saying a word, he turned his head and went to work inside. Baozi glared at Xiao Yi, "In the future, you have to turn around and report these words from your sister Hua's mouth, don't say it directly." ”

Xiao Yi whispered, "God, I still have something to report." A couple of recommendations from my father."

Bun whispered "Hurry up"

Xiao Yi clenched his fists, "No." First, the provincial city is not clean, so it is recommended that you pay attention to finding clues about the red dragon. Second, you need to find time to work, and it is recommended that you regularly convene meetings with Li Zaiyuan, the third prince of Long, and Zhu Wu, so that you can grasp the information in a timely manner and not leave it alone. ”

Bao Zi sighed, "Come out to study for a few years, don't you want to be so tired." I have been involved in the affairs of Luding Mountain all the way, and Zhu Wu will definitely not be happy. ”

Xiao Yi said, "It's his business that Zhu Wule is unhappy, but Zhu Yan's upper relationship rescued him from the sinkhole in advance, this old gentleman didn't stop after he went back, and became the baton behind Zhu Wu, I'm afraid the third prince's life is not good." The Immortal Clan wanted to borrow the hand of the Great Mage of Dongying to kill the Hanging Dragon Mansion, and the River God Mansion led Luding Mountain, but you broke the balance, and now the people of the Immortal Clan are very dissatisfied, do you think they will let you go if you hide? ”

The last thing Baozi wants to hear is the infighting of various clans, but once this road goes out, there is really no turning back, and the knife of the immortal clan may have already been raised.

"The gods, the heavenly immortals, and the immortals represent the righteous path, and generally do not intervene in internal friction. Most of them are earth immortals and human immortals, their hearts are immortal, their desires still exist, and the matter of fighting for territory is indispensable. You have a high prestige among the ghost immortals of Luding Mountain, and you have a close relationship with the third prince and the five road protectors, and these allies need to be stabilized and fought for. ”

Baozi leaned out again, "Okay." Office for office. There is a regular meeting every Friday, so you should inform them."

"No" Xiao Yi looked very happy, turned around to leave, and suddenly remembered something, "God, on the way here, I saw a building full of ghosts, black gas from the inside out, extremely suspicious, do you want to take a look?" ”

Baozi looked at Roland in the back room and replied in a low voice, "Why are you like this, we just came, can you not cause trouble." The forest in the provincial capital is too big, and there are all kinds of birds, can we fight it? ”

"This building is in the courtyard of the division, you pass by every day, and you can't get around. Sooner or later you will find out. Xiao Yi still lowered his voice and said.

Normal University and the High School Affiliated to Normal University are located on both sides of the road, in recent years, with the development of education, both schools have carried out large-scale expansion, at present various buildings almost connect the two schools together, so when it comes to school and school, college students and high school students are mixed and shuttled between the two schools, and even eat, live and study together. Baozi lives in the compound of the Normal University, goes to school in the attached middle school, and does have to cross the entire campus every day.

Baozi has seen more ghosts than others, and he naturally won't be afraid of a few powerful ghosts, not to mention that the Chixiao Sword is in hand, and he can exorcise demons and cure ghosts. The desire to explore soon dominated the thinking, and Baozi gave Xiao Yi a look, and Xiao Yi said loudly, "You didn't buy your soap, towel, and toothbrush!" ”

Baozi also deliberately said loudly, "Let's go out and buy it!" ”

Roland poked his head out, "Blame me for not being prepared, don't buy it, I'll go get some at home." ”

Xiao Yi stopped, "Hey, it's all things for men, you.... How to buy it, let's go out for a walk. Without waiting for Roland to speak, he dragged the bun out of the courtyard. This school was founded by General Zhang Xueliang in the thirties, the school is located on the west side of the main road, covering an area of 1,000 acres, with many buildings and ancient trees. Further west of the school is the Workers' Stadium, where giant turtle-shell-like buildings can be seen from every corner of the campus. On the east side of the main road is the High School Attached to the Normal University, a relatively new school built in the late 70s, like many buildings of that era, a featureless Soviet-style building, except for the three giant flagpoles in front of the school gate.

The flagpole in the middle is significantly higher than the two sides and is used to hang the national flag, and the other two flagpoles hang the school flag. Of course, this setting is in line with common sense, but the buns feel awkward no matter how you look at them. Baozi and Xiao Yi observed for a long time, in addition to the flagpole being unusually thick and tall, and standing on a huge high platform, it was extremely solemn and very weird. It is not easy to observe the feng shui structure on the ground, and Baozi climbed the hill on the north side of the school, standing on the top of the hill and overlooking it, the view of the campus is unobstructed.

Baozi didn't want to look at the scenery, what he had in mind was the feng shui pattern of the entire campus. I couldn't help but be shocked when I looked at it again. The turtle shell building of the stadium in the distance is more like a mound, and the three flagpoles are dedicated to the soul incense of the dead, the flagpole is the soul incense, and the flag is the burning fire. Between the flagpole and the mound is a flat, tall modern building, which is completely different from the old Japanese buildings on campus, and it is clearly a tombstone! This is the Celestial Tomb pattern, which is created for one purpose: to suppress or recruit powerful wraiths. Baozi thought for a long time, the mound-like sports field was built in 1985, the flag-raising square of the middle school attached to the Normal University was rebuilt in 1986, and the tombstone-like building in the middle looks new, all of which were produced after the Battle of the Dead Sea in 1984! Who built this? Whether it was an unintentional move or a premeditated plan.

Baozi pointed to the modern building and asked Xiao Yi, "What kind of building is that?" ”

Xiao Yi was surprised by Baozi's judgment, and hurriedly replied, "God has a good eye, that's what I'm talking about, it should be a comprehensive building" The so-called comprehensive building is an emerging Western architectural model of the university in the late eighties, that is, a large-scale modern building integrating teaching, accommodation, catering, and conference affairs. The complex has only been built for three years and looks very new. Descending the North Mountain, the afterglow of the setting sun paints the campus with a layer of bright gold, and the complex stands majestically in the middle of the campus, and in the golden sunset, the cyan reinforced concrete reveals a trace of strange incongruity. Compared to other corners of the campus, there are very few people coming in and out of this building.

Baozi walked into the building, and an old doorman wearing sleeves stopped him, "Young man, it's time to get off work, let's go to another building for self-study." ”

On university and secondary school campuses, the school buildings are rarely closed at night, and students are everywhere to facilitate self-study. What's more, there are many children from the affiliated middle school who also go to the Normal University for self-study, and at night, the classrooms are brightly lit and the seats are full, so why is this main building closed?

Baozi begged the old doorman and said, "I can't find a seat anywhere else, please let me in."

The old doorman looked the bun up and down, and asked lightly, "Attached to the middle school, right?" Just arrived? ”

"That's right"

The old doorman sneered, "Even if I let you in, you dare to study here?" ”

Baozi looked in through the old doorman, the lights in the common area of the building had been turned off, and the corridor was dark and miserable. Occasionally, a few classrooms with the lights still on, as the clock struck six o'clock, the lights were quickly turned off, and the teachers and students packed their bags and left the building in a hurry, as if something would happen after six o'clock.

Baozi begged the old man, "Let me go in and stay for a while, I won't make trouble." ”

The old doorman shook his head, "Child, I'm for your good." If you have three long and two short, I can't explain it to the school. ”

In the words of the old doorman, after six o'clock, this building is a ghost gate!
