Imperial Court: Night in the Capital Chapter 50 The Altar
Geng Liqiu went to find Di Renqiu, and when Di Renqiu told Geng Liqiu about it.
Geng Liqiu replied directly, "Lao Tzu doesn't do it, what kind of task are you~, the ancient temple almost scared me to death last time, you still dare to take this kind of ghost task, I really don't know what you think in your head?" ”
Di Renqiu said flatteringly: "You also know, I don't dare to go alone for this kind of thing, besides, the turtle grandsons under my command are scared one by one, and no one is willing to accompany me to go." ”
Geng Liqiu ignored it, and was about to turn around: "Whoever wants to do it, Lao Tzu is not available." ”
Di Renqiu hurriedly grabbed Geng Liqiu, "Good brother, this time the reward is three times as much as last time, isn't it exciting?" ”
He wanted to repeat the old plan, but he didn't know that Geng Liqiu was no longer interested in money.
He has 30,000 gold, how can he care about the small profit of Di Renqiu.
"It's useless, don't go, I refuse."
The way he resolutely refused, Di Renqiu was also surprised, isn't this guy very interested in money? Could it be that after falling for Ling Qianxue, a rich woman, she was not interested in money!
What should I do, what should I do?
Seeing that Geng Liqiu was about to leave, Di Renqiu really didn't know what he could come up with for him to accompany him, and he couldn't think of a way to chew his brain.
Just when he was confused, suddenly a familiar voice sounded, it was Ling Qianxue!
What is she doing here?
After she came out, Geng Liqiu also stopped and turned to look at her, and naturally opened his arms.
In this way, Di Ren's hateful eyes really watched Ling Qianxue throw herself into Geng Liqiu's arms.
Oh my god, I don't have a face to see.
After they warmed up for a while, Ling Qianxue looked at Di Renqiu, as if she had a sense of examining him: "Di Renqiu, what are you looking for my husband, are you going to make it bad again?" ”
Di Renqiu said innocently: "No, I really don't have it!" ”
He felt wronged.
Ling Qianxue said again: "Then what are you looking for my husband?" ”
Di Renqiu had no choice but to say: "I want to ask Brother Geng to go to Taolin Mountain with me to help, I will give him a certain reward, and I will not treat him badly." ”
Ling Qianxue said for Geng Liqiu: "My husband is unwilling, do you want to force him?" ”
Di Renqiu once again showed an innocent expression: "How dare I, I'm just afraid of ghosts, I don't dare to go!" ”
Geng Liqiu saw this.
There was a bad premonition.
Suddenly, Ling Qianxue looked at him with big eyes and asked him, "Is it because you are also afraid of ghosts?" ”
This girl is too smart, saying this, how can Geng Liqiu be embarrassed to say that he is afraid of ghosts, "How is it possible, I am a dignified man, how can I be afraid of ghosts." ”
turned to Geng Liqiu to prove that he was upright, so he promised Di Renqiu: "I promised you, I'll go with you, it's just a ghost, what are you afraid of, you are such a coward, shame!" ”
Ling Qianxue said to this: "If the husband doesn't want to go, I can help you refuse." ”
Geng Liqiu categorically couldn't refuse, and refusal meant that he was afraid of ghosts, and men couldn't admit it in front of the girls they liked.
Di Renqiu didn't expect Ling Qianxue's sudden appearance, and he unintentionally helped him, making him start to express his gratitude to this Ling Mad Demon.
"Brother Di is as timid as a mouse, if I don't have me, I am afraid that he will not be able to complete this task, so I must take action righteously, lest he be punished for not being able to complete the task." Geng Liqiu was sonorous and powerful, and said seriously.
And Di Renqiu, in order to better complete the task, endured him for framing himself like this.
Ling Qianxue said: "Husband, I originally wanted to accompany you, but the daughter of the Song family invited us to congratulate us on our birthday, so ......"
Geng Liqiu knew that she also wanted to go together, so he hugged her, touched her hair, and said, "We will have opportunities in the future." ”
Ling Qianxue nodded slightly.
"Alright, go ahead, I'll bring you a gift when I get back."
"Hey, love you!"
Ling Qianxue kissed Geng Liqiu directly in front of Di Renqiu.
Di Renqiu again: Oh my mother, I don't have the face to see it.
Geng Liqiu was smiling like something, and he didn't come back to his senses until Ling Qianxue left.
Di Renqiu: "Alas, people are more popular than people, when will I have a sweet love." ”
Geng Liqiu glanced at him, "It's impossible, you're going to be naked in this life." ”
Di Ren said hatefully: "Don't scare me, I'm not scared." ”
Geng Liqiu looked at Di Renqiu, and suddenly asked very seriously: "Is there really a ghost?" ”
Di Renqiu confessed: "According to the mission information, this time there may be ghosts on the Taolin Mountain Sacrifice Table. ”
Seeing Geng Liqiu's face change, Di Renqiu hurriedly said: "Since you have promised me, the so-called gentleman is difficult to chase after a word, you can't break the contract, otherwise I, I ......."
He really had no way to take Geng Liqiu.
However, Geng Liqiu said: "Okay, since I promised you, I naturally want to do it, and a man's integrity is to do what he says." ”
Di Renqiu was overjoyed, "Then thank you Brother Geng." ”
"Let's go!"
Geng Liqiu didn't want to be verbose, and got into the carriage of Di Renqiu.
Three hours later, they came to Taolin Mountain.
Ten miles of peach forest, blooming all over a mountain, this also has the name of peach forest mountain.
"I have to say, this place is really beautiful." Speaking of ten thousand ways and one thousand, this place really made Geng Liqiu like this place a little.
When he stepped into the Taolin Mountain, he found that Di Renqiu's expression became more and more solemn, "Hey, you guy, why did you act like this, it's daylight now, if you want to say that the real ghost haunts, it's also night." ”
He has calmed down, regardless of whether it is a human or a ghost, he will not let the incident of the ancient temple last time happen.
Taolin Mountain is divided into three peaks.
The low peak, the middle peak, the peak, and the altar is on the peak, and there is a pavilion on each peak, and when they come to the middle peak pavilion, they stop to rest.
And the fragrance of the peach forest on this road makes people feel refreshed.
"By the way, this ghost can't be real, right?" Getting closer and closer to the sacrificial platform, Geng Liqiu couldn't overcome his fear of ghosts after all, and asked tentatively.
"That's not to say." Di Renqiu told the truth.
Geng Liqiu asked weakly: "Is the information you investigating accurate?" How can there be ghosts in this world? ”
Di Renqiu was also a little embarrassed and said, "Is it a real ghost?" Actually, I don't know very well, just because it is rumored that there are seven ghosts on the sacrificial altar of Taolin Mountain, which are erratic. ”
"Are you sure it's true?"
"Brother Geng, if it weren't for these seven ghosts, I wouldn't have called you to this flood."
Geng Liqiu asked again: "The boss of your family really has a hole in his brain, he knows that you are a cowardly person and afraid of ghosts, why do you still want to send you this task?" ”
This time, Di Renqiu said with some embarrassment, "I'm not as big as your family, I still have to support my family, I have an 80-year-old mother..."
Geng Liqiu kicked him, "You~ roll the calf for me, tell me honestly, what are you for?" ”
"Actually, I have a daughter."
"You~tell me the truth?"
"That's the truth, forget it, let me tell you, in fact, she was adopted by me."
"Adopted?" Geng Liqiu asked.
Di Renqiu nodded: "This matter started a few years ago..."
Geng Liqiu said: "Don't talk about it, how much money is needed, I'll give it to you." ”
Di Renqiu suddenly proposed: "Why don't you raise it?" ”
Geng Liqiu slapped Di Renqiu's head, "you, can this be sent around?" ”
Di Renqiu suddenly became serious, "Actually, over the years, I have spent a lot on her, and I only got that little money in Jinyiwei, and there is no problem in supporting me alone, but it is a bit laborious for two people." ”
"Since you have adopted, it's useless to talk so much, when the matter is over, I will ask Si Wei to give you some money so that she can grow up well."
Di Renqiu said again: "Actually, she is sixteen years old. ”
Geng Liqiu: "......"
"Can you stop coaxing me one by one, I just want to know what is going on?"
Di Renqiu: "Don't you don't listen? ”
"you, don't give me a sloppy look, you are a little more mature in this matter." Geng Liqiu said very seriously.
"Actually, she was blind, because she encountered bandits, I rescued her, and when I saw that she was helpless, I asked him to stay at my house for three years."
"Have you checked her identity?"
"I've checked, it's an ordinary person, and her eyes seem to be blinded by something special, I don't know what it is."
After Geng Liqiu heard this, he said, "When the matter is resolved, I'll take a look." ”
Di Renqiu is also grateful: "Then I will thank you for Hua Yin." ”
After the break.
He continued to go up the mountain, and the distance from the middle peak to the peak of the peach forest mountain was not too far, and the peach forest seemed to become much less when it reached the peak.
Until they reach the top.
The flat place in front of you is surrounded by the ten-mile Yao Forest that can be surrounded by Taolin Mountain.
Geng Liqiu took a deep breath, and at sunset, the glow shone on the entire Taolin Mountain, adding a different color to the originally pink peach forest.
"Actually, it's not scary here!"
Di Renqiu didn't seem to have the same mentality as Geng Liqiu, with a hint of worry in his demeanor, it seemed that staying here made him very scared.
"Let's go, let's go see the altar!"
The peak was not large, and soon they found a pavilion, and an ancient sacrificial platform was built next to the pavilion, and the lines on it depicted some long-standing lines.
Di Renqiu pointed to the sacrificial platform, there were some faint blood stains on the lines, and the blood stains actually emitted a scornful smell.
Let Geng Liqiu hurriedly cover his nose, the smell is too unpleasant.
"What kind of blood is this, and the smell is so strong?"
Di Renqiu said: "It is rumored in the folk fang that the seven ghosts of Taolin Mountain will sacrifice human blood at night to welcome the birth of the king of Hades!" ”
Geng Liqiu asked, "Has anyone seen it?" ”
Di Renqiu shook his head, but said: "Someone looked at the Taolin Mountain in the small city of the hidden capital, at night, the blood light reached the sky, running through the Taoshan Mountain, and the seven ghosts floated up, as if a ghost body appeared, it was Jiang Yanluo!" ”
Smell this.
The sky was getting dark, and suddenly the sacrificial platform was on the altar, and in an instant.
Seven ghosts appeared.
Their pupils dilated in vain.
