Chapter 67: The Resting Boy

Sitting in front of me was a boy who looked to be only five or six years old, naked and pale, and he reached out and hooked the rope in my hand in exactly the same way that Liu Cheng had taught me before.

He hooked before glaring at me and motioning for me to continue.

I'm the only one here, Liu Cheng said, this boy likes to have fun, as long as the means of turning his heart don't lose to him, he won't hurt people's hearts.

But with such a frightening boy sitting in front of me, how could I have calmed down, and almost shook my hand from the past to hook back the flower rope in his hand, and flipped it into another shape, and the boy looked at me with a happy face, and then took it.

And so on, until the ninth turn, I took the rope from his hand, Liu Cheng only taught here, how to turn over he didn't say, I said in my heart I only hope this boy must not turn over.

This time it was a wish, the boy looked at the rope in my hand and was stunned, and after a long time, he looked at me and said in a milky voice, "I won't, I won't play with you anymore." He stood up and turned to leave, and as he walked forward, he pouted at me, turned his head and stuck his tongue out at me, and slapped his ass by the way.

I said in my heart that this is the end? Didn't he say that if I win, he would give me a heart?

I plucked up the courage to stop him and said, "Didn't you say that if I win, you're going to give me a heart?" ”

The boy turned around and pouted to look at me, and after a while he said with a reluctant face, "Which one do you want, which one do you want?" ”

I thought that the hearts were all the same, and what kind of hearts were divided, when I heard this dazzling array of hearts, I hesitated, I didn't know what kind of heart was suitable for the gray wolf, and I thought for a while before saying, "I want seven exquisite wisdom." ”

He sighed, "Do you want to use it yourself?" If you want to use it yourself, give me your heart, and I'll change it for you. ”

I shook my head busily, this change of heart must not be disemboweled? I couldn't stand the suffering, so I said that I begged for a gray wolf under the mountain, and he nodded, only said that he understood, and then turned and left.

I watched in the back for a while, and I still hadn't said which gray wolf it was, and how did he know which gray wolf it was?

But he has already left, I naturally don't dare to stay here longer, carrying a flower rope and running towards the Taoist temple, to the door of the Qingshan Temple saw a few people who were chatting nonsense in the Taoist temple, I pretended to be calm and walked in, I was very dissatisfied with their behavior, I was outside with the heart-turning boy gambling with his heart, but they were here to talk nonsense.

When I came back, only Chen Yingying stood up and walked over to me, looked me up and down, and asked with concern, "He didn't bully you, did he?" ”

I shook my head, looked at Chen Yingying and smiled, she really cared about me, she was like this before, whether she was alive or dead.

Then he walked up to Yoo Cheng and said, "I'm back." ”

Liu Cheng hummed, "It's late, you all go and rest, I have something to say to the old gentleman." ”

Liu Cheng didn't even ask me if I succeeded or not, I obviously came back empty-handed, why wasn't he afraid that I would fail, and my heart was taken away by the boy who turned his heart?

Liu Cheng can talk to anyone, he used to be like this with my grandfather, and now he is like this with this old man with a credit knife, a picture of meeting and hating late, I can't interrupt them, and I went back to the house quietly.

Huang Yunqiu and Chen Yingying then walked in, Chen Yingying stood directly next to me, and Huang Yunqiu stood opposite me and smiled, and said, "Your master and that old gentleman can use divination, so you will be fine, besides, what your master turned out in the end was a dead knot, and even he couldn't continue to turn it on, how could the boy who changed his heart go down." ”

I was just scared, how could I be angry with Liu Cheng, and after chatting with Huang Yunqiu and Chen Yingying for a while, I was so tired that I couldn't do it, so I went into the house with water and lay down on the bed after washing.

Liu Cheng and the old man with the credit knife are not small, they are both outside, I naturally have nothing to worry about, I closed my eyes and fell asleep.

I opened my eyes and looked, but saw that the place where I was staying was still a small room of the Taoist temple, but outside a black city, in front of me was a hundred-meter-high copper wall, and the figures on the left and right were crowded, and they hurriedly entered the city wall.

I looked up and saw that there was a plaque on the wall, engraved with the word 'Xudu', and on both sides of the city gate, a couplet was written.

The upper link is: Confucianism, Taoism, and Mo are respected in the name of the law, and they would rather kill a thousand in vain.

The next link is: The punishment of the officials and soldiers is the top, and no one can slip through the net.

I looked at this couplet and was very familiar with it, isn't this exactly what the teacher said when he was taking the shogunate exam at the Land Temple before, why was it suddenly engraved here?

Seeing that everyone was heading towards the city, I looked back at the empty field behind me, and followed them into the city.

Entering the city, I saw a road leading to the north and south, countless people were walking around on the avenue, and there were many people on both sides of the avenue who were setting up stalls to do business, but the things on their stalls were very strange, all of them were paper people and paper horses, and there were incense candles and other things.

There are also a number of houses on both sides of the avenue, which are almost the same in shape, but very different from the houses I usually see, because they are all made of paper.

Immediately understood, the house here is for the dead to live, after the dead in the countryside, will ask the papermaker to tie some paper buildings to burn to the dead, saying that it is for the dead old people to live, and then tie some paper people and paper horses, the paper horses are for the dead to travel, the paper people are mostly boys and girls, and below are the maids and servants, who can serve the dead.

I looked at it and was shocked, and I thought to myself what kind of place I had come, and the streets were full of dead people. Inexplicably, I thought of the fact that I was deceived by the paper man to kill the old dragon before, and said in my heart that this kind of thing happened again.

I was terrified all the way, trying to find a way out, but the city was too big, and I didn't know how long I walked, but I still couldn't see the end of this avenue, so I was too tired to find a house with fewer pedestrians, and sat at the door to rest.

This room is much more magnificent than the others, there are two stone lions standing at the door, and the gate is also a door with a double leaf wide open and closed, and there are five or five twenty-five nails on the door, and I looked at it while sitting next to this gate, and the rest of the people walked here, and they all avoided it.

I don't think so, this place must be the house of some great person, otherwise how could they be so frightened that they would take a detour?

Just as he was about to get up and leave, he heard the voice of people in the room, and after a while, he saw a person in a black official uniform, surrounded by left and right and went out.

I was shocked when I saw this official uniform, this kind of official uniform is only available in Yin Division, and the clothes worn by the Si Dian of Fengxian City before were like this, but the color was a little different.

I looked at the city again, and suddenly understood, I didn't come to the Yin Division that others used paper people and paper horses to pretend to build, but the real Yin Division, because of the fake Yin Division, no one can cut out such a large-scale paper man paper horse.

Just as I was about to get up and leave, the man in the black official uniform saw me, and saw that I was sitting by the door of this hall at first, and was stunned at first, and then beckoned to me, "Little baby, come over me." ”

He saw it, and I could only pretend to be calm and walked over.

He looked me up and down and said, "Do you know where this is?" ”

I shook my head.

He asked, "Do you know who I am?" ”

I shook my head again and said, "I'm leaving, I'm just tired from walking and want to rest here." ”

I was about to leave, but he grabbed me and said, "You wait first, discuss something with you, I have encountered a difficult case in the past few days, if I can't solve this case, my official position will be cut from above." But yesterday came to the door of a tour of Fang Dao people, he said two words to me, told me that if I can understand this first sentence, I can find someone who helped me solve this case, this first sentence is 'throw the burden and rest, but send the bright moon, yellow hair and sideburns, inherit the ancestry', I have realized this morning, throw the burden and rest is rest, but send the bright moon is the foot, the yellow hair and sideburns are children, the inheritance is the son, together is the 'rest boy', this morning went out, just happened to meet you here to rest, that must be you right. ”
