Chapter Fifty-Nine: Darkness Chencang
Liu Cheng is a mysterious person, but I'm almost sure that he knows about it, otherwise he wouldn't have shown me the chop, and the reason why I dared to cut it down was because of his chop.
The knife went down, and the dragon head rolled down the torture platform, and everyone in the audience began to laugh, their expressions full of mockery and satisfaction, as if the kind of person they hated so much had finally been disposed of.
I looked at the torture table again, but Zhong Kui at the top only waved his sleeve, "Get out." ”
As soon as the words fell, the surrounding scene changed greatly, only a blink of an eye, the originally dark sky became a black, after a while to see a faint moonlight, I was busy looking around, but saw that there were several mountains around, under the feet of a grass, in front of a white paper table, behind the table is also a paper person, painted with thick eyebrows and beard, pinned to the waist is a paper sword, the back is a paper plaque, what is written on it is not that there is no return, but 'for the heavens' four words.
Looking back, there was a paper horse behind me, and there were also a few paper people standing next to me, and where I was, where was the Yin Division, it was simply the center of the gathering of the three dragons in Santou Village, and the torture platform where the dragon was slaying was also the place where the grave they chose for Liu Cheng was located.
I didn't feel right, I didn't go to Yin Si at all, I was deceived by someone with this paper man and paper horse, and immediately pulled my legs towards Qingshan Temple, arrived at Qingshan Temple, and entered my room with Liu Cheng, but saw that my body was still lying on the bed, and Liu Cheng's body was also lying on the bed, I hurriedly ran into my body, and then got up and pushed Liu Cheng, wanting to tell Liu Cheng what I saw at night.
But after pushing a few times, Liu Cheng didn't move, I probed his snort, but found that he had been out of breath for a long time, and another spirit ran to Chen Yingying and Huang Yunqiu's room, called them, told Huang Yunqiu everything, and let Huang Yunqiu make up his mind.
Huang Yunqiu was stunned when he heard this, and said, "The technique of killing people in dreams, this is the method of Guiguzi's lineage, you have fallen for their plan." ”
Chen Yingying and I were puzzled, Huang Yunqiu continued, "During the Tang Zhenguan period, the drought was chaotic, the red land was thousands of miles, Guiguzi calculated that it would rain soon, and even the points of the rain were calculated, Guiguzi had a festival with the golden horned dragon that held the rain, he knew that the golden horned dragon was arrogant, so he went to bet on the golden horned dragon, the golden horned dragon did not admit defeat, so he secretly changed the points of rainfall, and was found by heaven, punished down, and sent Wei Zheng, the minister of the central court at that time, to kill the golden horned dragon, this golden horned dragon to the emperor Li Shimin at that time for help, Li Shimin knew that Wei Zheng was fair and strict, so he deliberately asked Wei Zheng to drink and play chess before the execution, wanting to delay the execution time, but Guiguzi taught Wei Zheng the art of killing people in a dream early, after three rounds of drinking, Wei Zheng pretended to fall asleep, but he went to the execution ground in a dream to kill the golden horned dragon, this spell is only Guiguzi can do it, you really killed the old dragon! ”
I listened with remorse, but at this moment, there was a demonic wind blowing in the room with the doors and windows closed, and I didn't know where to blow a piece of yellow table paper, and the yellow table paper fell on Liu Cheng's body impartially, Huang Yunqiu picked up the yellow table paper and looked at it, and there was only one word written on it, 'buried'.
After reading it, I hurriedly said, "Not long ago, Master showed me a piece of paper with the word 'chop' written on it, otherwise where would I dare to really chop." ”
Huang Yunqiu stared at the paper for a long time, and then his tense face relaxed, burned the yellow table paper, and then said to me and Chen Yingying, "Tomorrow we will go down the mountain to prepare the coffin, and no matter who asks, they will say that your master has passed away." ”
Huang Yunqiu's expression has explained everything, that is, this matter was deliberately arranged by Liu Cheng, it really scared me just now, I really thought that Liu Cheng was beheaded in a dream, and I couldn't help but sigh.
Liu Cheng estimates that he is also repeating the old tricks, just like pit my grandfather, who came to pit the person who wanted to kill him, or the pit who wanted to change the gentian to dog gall, he must have known about slaying the dragon for a long time, otherwise it would be impossible to leave us these two words.
Each was relieved, and the next morning, the three of us went down the mountain to buy a coffin, and it didn't take long for the entire Santou Village to know that the Taoist priest who had just come to Qingshan Temple had died, which naturally alarmed Zhao Shide and Wang Duangong.
These two people are also enthusiastic, Zhao Shide took the initiative to help prepare the coffin, after all, he is in this business, he knows the way, and after he contacts the coffin, a few of us went to his house to get the stone lion that Liu Cheng himself found him the day before yesterday, and I also deliberately looked at the statue of Zhong Kui hanging in his house.
Tsai carefully looked at it several times, and found that the statue of his Zhong Kui was exactly the same as what I saw, and said that this matter must have a lot to do with this Zhao Shide, but he didn't say anything, just didn't know anything.
But Zhao Shide took the initiative to ask, "Master Liu didn't get well yesterday, why did he go suddenly?" ”
I told everything I experienced at night, Zhao Shide sighed when he heard it, and said that I had made a big disaster, and said, "Wei Zheng slashed the dragon in his dream, and he was able to kill the real dragon, you obviously fell into someone else's plan, and now you will kill your master." ”
My expression was no different from usual, listening to Zhao Shide say these words, Huang Yunqiu glared at me and signaled me to be sad.
I could only make a crying face, and I couldn't squeeze out tears at all, but fortunately, Zhao Shide thought I was frightened, and didn't care what expression I did, and after saying a few words to us, he took the initiative to call the people in the village to the Taoist temple and carried Liu Cheng's body down the mountain.
Because it was too difficult for the coffin to go up the mountain, and the cemetery they chose for Liu Cheng was at the bottom of the mountain, they stopped the coffin at the bottom of the mountain and carried Liu Cheng's body down the mountain and put it in the coffin.
The people in the village only thought that they were dead, and they didn't care, they were not related to them, there was no need to cry, and there was no need to keep vigil for Liu Cheng.
In the afternoon of the same day, the villagers carried Liu Cheng's coffin to the cemetery they had chosen for Liu Cheng, and Wang Duangong also came to see Liu Cheng on crutches.
The grave is not fancy, just dig a pit, put the coffin in it, cover it with soil, put the two stone lions aside, burn some incense, candles, paper money, and that's it.
I looked around in this cemetery, all the paper men and paper horses last night were gone, obviously they were taken away, and a few of us knelt down in front of the small mound of soil in Liu Cheng for a while, and we all went back to Qingshan Temple.
Entered the Qingshan Temple, opened the door, but saw Liu Cheng sitting upright at the table in the room, before we just guessed that Liu Cheng was not really dead, now seeing that he was still sitting in the room, naturally overjoyed, I hurriedly said, "Master, you are really not dead." ”
Liu Cheng glanced at me and smiled weirdly, and then beckoned to me, "Stinky boy, come here." ”
As soon as I saw Liu Cheng's expression, I felt that danger was coming, and I shook my head and didn't dare to go over, but Liu Cheng took the initiative to stand up and walked towards me, reached out in front of me and knocked me on the head, and then said, "You are so bold, you really dare to kill me." ”
I hurriedly said, "You didn't ask me to cut it." ”
"I saw that you didn't hesitate at the time, and just cut it down, and I even doubt that even if I didn't show you that word, you would cut it without hesitation." Liu Cheng said.
I muttered, "That won't." ”
Liu Cheng no longer said anything about me cutting him, but only looked at the Taoist temple and said, "I'm dead, and it's time for the demons and monsters to appear." ”
What Liu Cheng has to do is to find out the person who is in the dark, before others were in the dark, we are in the light, and now the situation has changed, Liu Cheng is in the dark, and that person is about to be in the light, so it is much easier to do things.
Huang Yunqiu understood Liu Cheng's plan and arrangement, and didn't ask him much about it, only asked, "How did you deceive their eyes?" Sun Qingming will kill you. ”
Liu Cheng smiled and said, "They dare to find a paper man instead, why don't I dare to find a paper man instead?" He said and pointed to the corner of the room, and I saw that there was also a paper figure in the corner, but the paper figure had been separated, and it should have been this paper figure that I cut last night.
However, Huang Yunqiu was still puzzled and asked, "Didn't they find out that it was a paper man who was caught?" ”
Liu Chengdao, "The people they arranged to kill me are all paper people and paper horses, paper people are dead things, how can they distinguish the real from the fake." Then he frowned again, "The ability to kill people in dreams is only Guiguzi's lineage, it seems that the credit knife man you met at the beginning is not simple." ”
Liu Cheng said before that the person who took the knife on credit was under Guiguzi, and he was probably the only one who knew how to kill people in this dream.
Huang Yunqiu's chatterbox opened, and after countless questions, he continued to ask, "How did you know that they used the dream killing technique to kill you?" ”
