Chapter 28 The first twenty-eight A Chinese Ghost Story that started ahead of schedule II
Yiye Zhiqiu listened to Ning Caichen's words, and his face became worse and worse, because he knew that if he wanted to go to the underworld to rob people, it was an impossible task at all.
"Scholar, you're crazy! What a place is the underworld! That's where only the dead can go! Even if you and I can go, there is also a situation where there is no return, let alone robbing people back! ”
Listening to Yiye Zhiqiu's words, Ning Caichen knelt on the ground and kowtowed again and again; "Zhiqiu, I beg you. As long as you bring me to the underworld, even if it is death, I am willing! ”
Just after Ning Caichen knelt down, Yiye Zhiqiu also quickly knelt down. Yiye Zhiqiu, who was kneeling on the ground, held Ning Caichen's shoulder, and said embarrassedly; "The man has gold under his knees, and you are still my benefactor, how can I let you kneel to me!"
"Zhiqiu, you can help me, no one is willing to help me except you!" Ning Caichen grabbed Yiye Zhiqiu's clothes and said pleadingly.
"Ning Caichen, it's not that I don't want to help you, it's that my mana is limited, and I am only less than thirty percent sure that I will bring you and Xiaoqian back. And if there is a bad cuò in it, when the time comes, you will never be able to return to the world! Regarding Ning Caichen's plea, Yi Ye Zhiqiu said in embarrassment.
Looking at the three fingers in the depths of Yiye Zhiqiu, Ning Caichen hurriedly nodded and said; "Thirty percent of the certainty! No, not so much. As long as I have a little hope, I will give it a try, Zhiqiu, I beg you, you can take me down. When the time comes, if something really goes wrong, you can just go and leave me alone. ”
Listening to Ning Caichen's words, Yiye Zhiqiu helped him up, and then kept walking in the room.
After Yiye Zhiqiu left for a long time, he nodded at Ning Caichen and said; "Ning Caichen, in my life, I only owe you kindness. I thought I wouldn't have a chance to give it back to you! I didn't expect cause and effect to come so quickly! ”
"Zhiqiu" Ning Caichen looked at Yiye Zhiqiu, who was a little embarrassed, and opened his mouth, but in the end he couldn't say anything.
Looking at Ning Caichen's appearance, Yiye Zhiqiu nodded and said seriously; "Ning Caichen, don't say anything, I'll try my best. But you'd better be prepared in advance, because we may not be able to come back alive this time. ”
"Zhiqiu, I, I!" Ning Caichen looked at Ye Zhiqiu with an affirmative face, with tears in his eyes, and he couldn't say any words of thanks. Because he knows that no words of gratitude are enough to express his gratitude.
"Ten more days will be the auspicious day of the underworld, and the ghost gate will be wide open that day, and then I will be able to take you in." Yiye Zhiqiu said to Ning Caichen.
"Ten days! Isn't that Xiao Qian very dangerous! Regarding Yiye Zhiqiu's words, Ning Caichen asked worriedly, because he didn't know how Xiao Qian was doing down there, and whether she would be bullied and embarrassed by Grandma Shu.
Yiye Zhiqiu wiped the sword in his hand and said a little absent-mindedly; "Ten days later is the auspicious day of the underworld, and the old demon of Montenegro, as the king of one party, should marry Xiaoqian on this day. As long as we can catch up with the team to welcome our relatives, we may be able to save Xiaoqian before she meets the old demon of Montenegro. Otherwise, with my way, if I really meet the old demon of Montenegro, it can only be a dead end. ”
"Ten days!" Ning Caichen chattered about the time, holding his hand tightly, and he didn't even know that the nails on his hands had pierced his palms.
In the county office, Qin Hui at this time played with the invitation letter of the old demon of Montenegro in his hand, and whispered softly; "In ten days, I will be able to use you to go to the underworld. The memories in my mind are all false after all, so I now also want to know what this legendary underworld is like! ”
"Are you there, sir?" Just as Qin Hui was secretly thinking, Master Zhao's voice suddenly came from outside the door.
"Come in" Qin Hui responded, and then asked Master Zhao who walked in; "What the hell is it that came to me so late!"
Master Zhao listened, bowed his head and said; "My lord, there is an urgent report from Tsinghua County ahead. It is said that it is a felony in the imperial court, and the prisoner car of the former Ministry of Rites, Fu Tianqiu, and Master Fu will pass through our territory tomorrow, so that we can provide food in Guobei County and provide soldiers to escort them along the way. ”
"Fu Tianqiu!" Hearing this, Qin Hui quickly thought about the memories in her mind, because this person was one of the main characters in the second scene of A Chinese Ghost Story. Thinking back to the plot of the second part, Qin Hui didn't expect that the second scene would start so soon when the first scene had not ended.
"What is it that escorts Fu Tianqiu? What is Fu Tianqiu's crime? After thinking for a while, Qin Hui asked Master Zhao.
"The soldiers and horses escorted are Nanjing's Jinyi Guard, and the leader is Nanjing's commander, Zuo Ling, Zuo Qianhu. As for Fu Tianqiu's crimes. "Speaking of this, Master Zhao, after looking left and right, whispered;" The little one heard that it was an attempt to rebel. ”
Qin Hui listened and said strangely; "Rebellion! Impossible! This Fu Tianqiu is just a scholar of the Ministry of Rites, and he has already stepped down. Besides, he has no soldiers and no power, how can he rebel! ”
Master Zhao nodded in agreement, and sighed in his mouth; "I don't know about this little one, but right now the demons are rampant, and the world is in chaos. Originally, many important officials of the court were killed and exiled in various names. And now the style of the imperial court has no law at all. ”
Hearing this, Qin Hui said to Master Zhao with some uncertainty; "Above the current court, is there a national teacher named Cihang Pudu?"
Listening to Qin Hui's words, Master Zhao couldn't help but think strangely; "Cihang Pudu National Teacher, he has been in the court for more than ten years, how can my lord not know it!"
But thinking so, Master Zhao still replied; "The current national teacher is Cihang Pudu. Moreover, the national teacher is now visiting the world for the emperor to appease the people, and he is about to pass by our Guobei County. ”
Qin Hui listened to Master Zhao's words, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and she thought secretly; "Cihang Pudu is actually coming! Well, it seems that I have to find a chance to meet him for a while, otherwise I won't see such a master, wouldn't it be a pity! ”
Qin Hui thought for a while and ordered at Master Zhao; "Master, tomorrow you will take thirty servants, together with Wang Zhutou, and go out of the city fifteen miles to greet you. When the time comes, you must bring Zuo Qianhu and Master Fu Tianqiu to our Guobei County. ”
"This!" Master Zhao listened to Qin Hui's words, and his face was embarrassed, because the prisoner escorted was the original Ministry of Rites, and the route of this escort had already been set, and he was afraid that he would pick it up, and people would not necessarily come.
Looking at Master Zhao's hesitant appearance, Qin Hui raised his head and asked; "What, are there any difficulties?"
"My lord, this Zuo Qianhu is a famous master of Jinyiwei, first, we don't have this face, and second, he is alone, and he won't come!" Master Zhao said embarrassedly.
Qin Hui smiled slightly, and after taking a sip of wine, said; "Needless to say, you can just ask for it tomorrow. When the time came, when I saw Zuo Qianhu, I said that I had prepared a banquet in the city to catch the wind for the soldiers who were tired of traveling and traveling. ”
As soon as Master Zhao heard this, his face immediately changed and he said; "Ahh Don't! Zuo Qianhu and his party, not to mention there are hundreds of people! These hundreds of people, if they eat us in a hurry, we may spend a lot of money! ”
"Master Zhao, are you questioning my words, or do you think I should listen to you?" Qin Hui listened and looked at Master Zhao with a smile on her face.
"Don't dare, don't dare. I'm just afraid of breaking the bill for adults, and I've never thought about going against the master! As soon as Master Zhao heard this, after thinking about Qin Hui's demeanor of killing the troll alone that day, he immediately said with a big change in his face.
Qin Hui looked at the frightened Master Zhao, nodded, and said; "If you don't dare, go down and do it. Remember, don't say this kind of thing in the future, otherwise I'll be very sad when I hear it, sir! ”
Master Zhao wiped the sweat from his head and replied again and again; "It's the adults, the little ones understand, the little ones understand."
Although Master Zhao was a little reluctant to make money in his heart, after all, Qin Hui was the chief official. So as long as Qin Hui decides, he can only act according to orders. What's more, Qin Hui is still a terrifying boss. So as soon as he saw the chill in Qin Hui's eyes, Master Zhao immediately softened.
Looking at the departing Master Zhao, Qin Hui patted the sword that was placed aside and said with a smile; "I'm a hundred miles from Guobei County, if you don't come here, do you still go to live in the temple! Hehe, there are only a few famous masters in the world, if I miss the two of you this time, will I let myself go to the world to find you! ”
Early the next morning, with the flying wind and sand, a group of people and horses gradually appeared in the horizon.
These people who appeared, one by one, were tightly connected to each other, escorting a prisoner car.
"Let's all stop and rest for a while!" With a loud shout, a middle-aged man in battle armor with a glaive in his hand rode in the direction of the prisoner cart.
This man who came running on horseback was wearing a black cloak and a murderous face, and he was not easy to match at first glance.
"Master Fu, you're okay!" The middle-aged man hugged his fist at the white-haired old man in the prisoner cart, turned over and dismounted, and walked towards the prisoner cart.
"I won't die until I see Your Majesty. I must confront His Majesty face to face and see who is the villain who falsely accused me above the court. The old man, who was originally motionless in the prison car, reluctantly raised his head after hearing the middle-aged man's words, and said weakly.
After hearing the old man's words, the middle-aged general shook his head helplessly, sighed and said; "Hey! The grievances in the court were originally unclear. Although I sympathize with the plight of adults, the fight between you big people is not something that I can control as a martial artist at all! So I can only keep my lord safe all the way, as for the grievances and grievances here, I believe that after seeing His Majesty, His Majesty will definitely make a decision. ”
"Master Fu, you can drink saliva first, we will be in Guobei County soon." The middle-aged general said, untied the kettle from his waist, and handed it to the old man in the prison.
"Knock, knock." The old man took the kettle and poured it into his mouth a few times.
After a few mouthfuls of water, the expression on Fu Tianqiu's face looked a little better.
"Now traitors are in charge, misleading the country and the people. I didn't expect these people to even let go of me, an old man who was sick at home. Hmph, I'm going to see what they can do with me this time! Fu Tianqiu handed the kettle in his hand to Zuo Qianhu, and with the words, bursts of cold light emitted from his originally cloudy eyes, fully embodying the meaning of the tiger's death.
