Chapter 61: The First Funeral
When night came, Li Xuyang received two phone calls, the first call was from Jiang Botong, and the second call was from Lu Juxiang. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Jiang Botong explained on the phone that nothing happened to Zhao Rui in the University of Finance and Economics. It is mentioned that several men in black broke into her school and wanted to take him away, but with the help of many classmates and teachers, Zhao Rui was successfully rescued.
And Lu Juxiang just said to Li Xuyang on the phone: "If you have nothing to do there, I hope to rush back to Handan as soon as possible." He didn't explain what kind of thing it was, which also gave Li Xuyang a little bad premonition in his heart.
The current thing is to successfully send Wang Chengxin into the underworld, so that he can get rid of the pain as soon as possible.
Hu Zhai's original Hu Laoba's hometown.
Li Xuyang was standing in the courtyard, and in front of him was Wang Chengxin. He looked up at the moonlight, the moon was very round and bright, illuminating the courtyard as if it were day, and even turning on the lights was omitted, while Ling'er was sitting on the bench leisurely.
Half an hour ago, Li Xuyang said to Wang Chengxin, "Today's day is the day of the funeral, but you have to remember one thing, no matter what happens during the period, you can't talk or shout." Think of yourself as a dead person, a soul without a body and without pain, otherwise if any process in the middle goes wrong, then it means that the funeral has failed. ”
Wang Chengxin nodded again and again, indicating that he understood. And Li Xuyang turned to Ling'er and said, "Ling'er, you are my protector, you can't be disturbed by anything during my funeral, otherwise it will hurt me a lot, as long as you do a good job of protecting me." Ling'er also readily agreed.
At this time, the door of Hu Laoba's old mansion was locked, and all the lights in the room were extinguished, and some were only the bright light shining from the moonlight.
Li Xuyang looked at Wang Chengxin, who was sitting cross-legged, and asked, "Are you ready?"
After Wang Chengxin saw Li Xuyang's appearance, he shrugged his shoulders, then closed his eyes and said, "Okay." ”
After hearing Wang Chengxin's words, Li Xuyang also closed his eyes, and then silently read something in his heart. It was just a small effort, and Li Xuyang summoned the "Soul Chain" from the palm of his left hand.
"I'm going to start. After Li Xuyang finished speaking, he threw a soul chain with a hook to Wang Chengxin, only to see that the hook was firmly hooked on his shoulder.
was hooked by the hook, Wang Chengxin shook his body suddenly, not only because of the pain, but also because the hook was too heavy. For a person, the soul chain is just an ordinary iron chain of no more than forty catties, and for a ghost or an evil spirit, his weight will be dozens or hundreds of times.
Wang Chengxin bit his lip tightly, although his lower lip was about to fall off with teeth, he still endured it and didn't make any sound.
Ling'er, who was behind them, watched this scene silently, from the beginning when the soul chain appeared in Li Xuyang's hand, he was not too surprised, and now he was even more indifferent, as if he was used to it.
When Li Xuyang saw that the hook hooked Wang Chengxin, he stood up and began to pull the soul chain. But the other end of the chain seemed to be hooked to something fixed, and let him use the strength of milk, and the soul chain just didn't move.
"How can this be?" Li Xuyang tried to pull a few more times, but the chain still didn't move as before.
"Do you want to help?" Ling'er saw that Li Xuyang didn't pull, probably because Li Xuyang didn't rest well, so she stepped forward and asked kindly.
"No, don't come here. Li Xuyang hurriedly stopped Ling'er from approaching, the soul chain is a dangerous weapon in the underworld, which has a fatal blow to ghosts. And what is Ling'er now? Li Xuyang can't define it yet, if he is involved in the soul chain, then even he is helpless.
"Oh. After hearing Li Xuyang's words, Ling'er sat back a little unhappy, holding her chin with both hands and looking at Li Xuyang.
Li Xuyang wrapped one end of the chain around his arm, and then circled his waist twice. Then he began to walk forward with his back to Wang Chengxin, but this heavy step was almost difficult.
"Whew. Li Xuyang gasped for breath, held his breath again, and then took a step forward.
He took a step forward, and the hook moved forward a bit. But what the hook hooked was not Wang Chengxin's shoulder, but the shoulder of an illusory thing, that is, Wang Chengxin's soul.
"Pak~"
A drop of sweat dripped down Li Xuyang's cheeks and fell to the ground, sinking into the soil. After more than ten minutes of "hard fighting", Li Xuyang walked less than five steps forward, and Wang Chengxin's soul had already been pulled out half.
"Come on, you can do it. Come on, you can do it. Li Xuyang kept encouraging himself in his heart.
And Wang Chengxin was biting his lip here, but his upper body had begun to degenerate gradually. The skin is also beginning to decay at a rate visible to the naked eye, and then disappears. Whenever Li Xuyang pulled out some souls from Wang Chengxin's body, the skin of the souls that were pulled out would rot and disappear.
After another ten minutes of hard pulling, Li Xuyang finally pulled Wang Chengxin's soul out of his body. Wang Chengxin, who had become a soul, looked at his somewhat illusory hands and body, and happily said to Li Xuyang, who was sitting on the ground gasping for breath, "Thank you." ”
"Whew, whew, you're welcome. After Li Xuyang saw that he had finished it, he also smiled, although he was very tired, but he succeeded. This effort was not in vain, and what can be proved is that I have indeed grown a lot during this time.
"Alright, now the funeral begins. Li Xuyang rested for about half an hour, and after his strength was almost recovered, he stood up and said to Wang Chengxin.
"Okay, it's ready for a long time. Wang Chengxin hugged his fists at Li Xuyang, and then stood in place waiting for Li Xuyang's order.
After Li Xuyang took back the soul chain in his hand, he came to Wang Chengxin's soul, and then stretched out his hand to hold his somewhat cold hand and said, "Let's go!"
After Li Xuyang finished speaking, a rotating tunnel appeared out of thin air in front of him, and the tunnel emitted a dark black gas.
Wang Chengxin looked at Li Xuyang in disbelief, and then looked at the tunnel, and his question could be seen from his eyes. Li Xuyang also hurriedly explained, "This is the tunnel leading to the underworld, so it will be very close, and it will directly save the steps of crossing the Ghost Gate Pass, Huangquan Road, Nai He Bridge and so on." ”
This is equivalent to a candidate who wants to enter a certain company, and it happens that he has an acquaintance or a relative who is a manager or a manager or something, which is similar to going through the back door.
After entering the tunnel, he came directly to the door of the judge, Li Xuyang looked at the sign of the judge after a long absence, and then said to Wang Chengxin, "Let's go, go in." ”
After entering the court, Judge Cui was sitting on a chair in the main hall looking at the documents on the table, holding a pen in his hand, sighing and drawing a stroke from the paper.
"Judge Cui, what's wrong with you?" Li Xuyang felt a little funny when he saw Cui Yu's helpless appearance, Cui Yu has been a judge for at least a few hundred years, and he should be handy at taking care of these things, why is he sad now.
"Alas, Li Xuyang, when did you come?" Cui Yu realized that Li Xuyang had come to the hall with a ghost after hearing Li Xuyang's words.
"Seeing that you were busy with official business, I came in without bothering. Li Xuyang said.
"Oh, he's?" Cui Yu asked, pointing at Wang Chengxin.
"He's a ghost who has been dead for more than a hundred years, and because some things haven't been able to get into the underworld, that's why I brought him here. ”
"Oh, what's the name?"
Wang Chengxin. ”
"I'll check. After Cui Yu finished speaking, he took out the book of life and death from the side, and then wrote the three words of Wang Chengxin with a judge's pen on the page of the book of life and death, and then the book of life and death automatically opened, turning to the page where Wang Chengxin was recorded.
"Wang Chengxin, life and death is a Taoist priest, he hasn't done much good things, and he hasn't done too many bad things, let him be reincarnated and be a new man!" Cui Yu said to himself, after writing some words under Wang Chengxin behind the book of life and death. Wang Chengxin, who was standing beside Li Xuyang, disappeared out of thin air, and after Cui Yu put away the book of life and death, he explained, "He has already gone to the road of reincarnation, don't worry." ”
Cui Yu still has some selfish intentions in the end, Wang Chengxin did not do much good things during his lifetime, but he did a lot of bad things, so it is indeed enough to give Li Xuyang face.
"Oh, thank you, Judge Cui. Li Xuyang clenched his fists and thanked him.
Li Xuyang was about to leave, but he came back and asked Cui Yu, "Ask more, why did you sigh just now?"
"Alas. Cui Yu sighed again, then walked down from the chair, came to Li Xuyang's side and said, "You are also your own person, tell you directly!"
It turned out that what had always worried Cui Yu was not anything else, it was the case of the disappearance of the ghost that Bai Wuchang told Li Xuyang some time ago. It stands to reason that the underworld is heavily guarded, and this kind of thing shouldn't have happened, but it still happened, if this matter is known by the people above, not only the ten Yamas, but also all the incumbents in the underworld, including Yan Jun and the King of Jizo, all have an unclear relationship.
And Li Xuyang is a person of Bai impermanence, and Bai Wuchang is a person of the ten Yamas, and the ten Yamas are the people of the King of the Earth and the Bodhisattva, this is a person who suffers from sins and even nine tribes.
"This matter is definitely not trivial, if it is not someone who did it on purpose, then someone in the underworld wants..."
"What do you want?" Hearing Cui Yu say this, but didn't say any more, Li Xuyang hurriedly asked.
"You will know about this later, and you should also pay attention to it in the human world, especially the souls that have just died, they have not come to the underworld, and many yin people will return empty-handed, which is by no means unusual. Cui Yu did not answer Li Xuyang's question directly, but came to his side and whispered.
"Does anyone want to..."Li Xuyang's eyes narrowed, and after agreeing to Cui Yu, he left the lawsuit.
