Chapter 44: Getting Out of Trouble (Part II)
Zhao Xiaoyi enthusiastically pointed the head of the golden python: "Brother Zhou, this golden python is really affectionate and righteous, and it must have come to save us." ”
I'm a little puzzled, how did this guy get out of the trunk by himself just now, and it was such a coincidence?
But seeing Zhao Xiaoyi's touched face, I couldn't spoil her interest, so I had to say: "Okay, this golden python did have merit just now, so let it quickly spit out the swallowed booty?" ”
Zhao Xiaoyi tilted his head: "But, Brother Zhou, this is the loot it captured, how can you ask for it?" ”
I was speechless: "Stinky girl, you have become the spokesperson of the golden python, I just appraised it, to see if that thing will be the key to open the ghost wall, besides, we are all organized people, all the seizures must be credited, do you know?" ”
"Oh, I see." Zhao Xiaoyi stuck out his tongue cutely, then patted the head of the golden python and said, "Good snake snake, quickly spit out the thing you swallowed, our brother Zhou wants to identify it, if you can't use it, I will return it to you." ”
Hearing Zhao Xiaoyi's voice, I suddenly had goosebumps, I don't know if I feel the same way, the golden python heard this, and trembled, and suddenly, he spit that thing to the ground, judging from the appearance, it was really the jade plate that Yu Yang used just now, and I didn't care about the saliva that was stained with the big snake, so I picked it up and took it to my eyes to watch carefully.
This jade plaque is made of a translucent jade, and in my understanding of jade, it should be a piece of fine blue sky jade, engraved with patterns on both sides, and one side is the rune that was inspired by Yu Yang just now, but I haven't learned this rune before, so I don't know if it's the key to open the ghost wall.
The other side of the jade plaque is more strange, carved with a strange creature that looks like a snake but not a snake, like a dragon but not a dragon, specifically, its head and body are very similar to a python, but it has four dragon claws.
I suddenly remembered a description of dragons in an ancient book, which was written by the Ming Dynasty naturalist Xie Zhaoqian, in which he wrote: "Dragons are the most lewd, so if they have sex with oxen, they will give birth to elephants, and if they have sex with horses, they will give birth to dragons and horses. ”
This passage is to say that the dragon is a creature that is very lewd, or extremely strong, so I couldn't help but get on a cow, gave birth to a unicorn, then a pig, gave birth to an elephant, and then got on a white horse, gave birth to a white dragon horse, and finally, I didn't even let people go.
Of course, as a descendant of the dragon, I believe that this is just the behavior of individual lustful dragons, and most dragons should be relatively normal, so there is a proverb that "dragons give birth to dragons, and phoenixes give birth to phoenixes" has been handed down.
However, we can still make a bold speculation, since this lustful dragon has so many animals on the ground regardless of species, could it have also been on a python and thus gave birth to this strange creature engraved on the jade plaque?
This matter, although it is not listed in the book, but since this guy is hungry and even dares to go to the pig, it is not surprising to occasionally rape a python, anyway, as long as it is a dragon species, it should not be a mortal species, so it will be used as a totem and is carved on the back of this jade plaque.
Zhao Xiaoyi saw that I was suddenly silent, so he asked, "Brother Zhou, what are you thinking?" ”
Naturally, I wouldn't tell a little girl who was just in love about her own dirty thoughts, so I smiled a little awkwardly, and replied a little "avoidance of the important and light": "I'm thinking, is this jade card the key to unlocking the ghost to hit the wall?" ”
Zhao Xiaoyi smiled and said, "Brother Zhou, do you still need to think so hard about this question?" Let's just take it out and give it a try, won't we? ”
It dawned on me: "Oh, yes, yes... However, before that, let's go see Sister Zhang first... Hey, what about the ghosts in the courtyard? Why is it all gone? ”
Zhao Xiaoyi shook his head: "I don't know, it seems that when we came out of the house, they were already gone, I guess they were scared away, right?" ”
At this time, Cao Lei suddenly said behind us: "Actually, those ghosts were all captured by Bai Xiaomiao, she escaped, and they naturally took the opportunity to escape." ”
I turned my head and found that Cao Lei was helping Sister Zhang out of the upper house, so I asked, "So, you were also captured by that cat demon, or Yu Yang?" ”
Cao Lei said very resolutely: "I'm not, I voluntarily followed the adult, because he promised to teach me a ghost cultivation technique." ”
It turns out that this is the case, then Cao Lei's actions tonight are much easier to explain, but since he can admit this and have a lot of regret for Sister Zhang, I don't want to worry so much about him, so I said: "Cao Lei, then you go home, remember, don't take your sister-in-law out like this easily in the future, it will be very dangerous." ”
Cao Lei nodded: "Thank you, Mr. Zhou, however, without the key to open, I can't get out of the formation arranged by adults." ”
Zhao Xiaoyi said strangely: "But, Brother Cao, didn't you go out just now and take Sister Zhang over?" Aren't there other ghosts who have already left? ”
Cao Lei explained: "When I went out just now, I actually took the adult's jade talisman and temporarily opened the big array, but after I came back, I exchanged the jade talisman to the adult, as for the other people, although they escaped from this courtyard, they definitely couldn't escape from this alley. ”
I thought about it and thought that Cao Lei wouldn't tell lies, so I showed the jade card in my hand and said, "Come and see, isn't this it?" ”
Cao Lei walked over, took the jade card, looked at it several times, and then said: "The size of this jade card is the same as the four-legged dragon pattern on the back, it is the rune on the front, there seems to be a big difference, I remember that the rune is much simpler than this." ”
Hearing Cao Lei say this, I asked in surprise: "Then can you draw that rune, just look like it?" ”
Because as long as Cao Lei can roughly draw it, it is possible for me to find the corresponding rune and remake a talisman key.
Cao Lei shook his head: "How can I do such a high-end thing?" If it weren't for the adults' explanation, I wouldn't even know that these patterns were runes. ”
I was a little disappointed, but nodded and said, "Okay then, let's go out first." ”
So, the four of us walked out of the front door and returned to the alley, and I continued to think as I walked, and suddenly I had a flash of inspiration, and I thought of a way to crack the talisman array.
Soon, they came to the broken boulder again, and sure enough, the spirits and ghosts who had escaped just now were standing on both sides of the rubble, and talking about something.
Seeing the four of us approaching, we all got out of the way, and our eyes were full of anticipation.
An old man also bravely approached us and said to Cao Lei: "Xiao Lei, you are familiar with this Venerable Master, please ask him for intercession, judging from his skills just now, it shouldn't be difficult to untie this ghost against the wall, right?" Those of us who have been trapped for months really don't want to stay here anymore. ”
As soon as I heard this, I was a little angry: "This Yu Yang and the cat demon are too much, right?" Isn't this unlawful detention? It's been a few months, why didn't you call the police? ”
However, after saying these words, I felt a little white, the two parties are not human beings at all, and naturally they are not bound by the laws of the world.
Unexpectedly, my words still caused a lot of repercussions, and all the ghosts scolded the cat demon and Yu Yanglai, and some people also said: "Venerable Master, we can't help it, we can't get out at all, and we are very strict by that banshee, fortunately you came, otherwise, I don't know how long they will imprison us?" ”
Cao Lei showed a look of dissatisfaction on his face, and defended Yu Yang: "What kind of imprisonment? The adults just asked you for a favor, and besides, they didn't treat you badly, they ate and drank well every day, and promised to give you some spiritual spring water as a reward, but now you say that, it's too unconscionable, right? ”
The old man disagreed: "Look at what you said, what kind of reward to give, it has to be voluntary for us, besides, whoever marries a relative is a few months, and every night has to be tossed, who can stand it?" ”
I was a little surprised, it turns out that this Yu Yang has been married for a few months, no wonder we came twice, and we met twice, this guy looks very sunny, but I didn't expect his psychology to be so perverted.
Of course, having said that, Yu Yang is a spirit ghost after all, and it can't be measured according to the standards of human thinking, it is estimated that it was because of some reasons during his lifetime, for example, his mother-in-law asked for too much bride price and failed to marry his daughter-in-law, which left a huge psychological shadow, so he was resentful after death and made these strange moves.
After all, this is also a poor baby, huh?
