The owner of this ship was unlucky, and the woman named Jinluan drowned before, which made the owner unhappy, but he suppressed his temperament and appeased the horse scholar.

The rice on the ship is worth the proprietor's small half of his family, and if he is involved in a lawsuit for human life, with the means of the corrupt officials, he is afraid that he will lose money on this trip.

It was easy to say that he persuaded the scholar not to go to the official face, but to drown as an ordinary person, and gave twenty taels of silver to burn and bury.

It's easy to expose this matter, I don't want to just fall asleep, but someone died again! It's still the same horse scholar who died!

The proprietor's head was as big as a bucket, and he only talked about the fate of the prisoner, and hurriedly came out with the captain and checked it carefully. That Langzhong is just a mortal with the naked eye, where can I see how Ma Shusheng died?

Fake and fake to look at it, only to say 'overthinking' and 'death in fear'.

If there is only one family member on the boat, you can throw the body into the water. However, the shipowner was greedy for money, and carried more than a dozen merchants who entered Shenjing along the way, so naturally this matter could no longer be handled in this way.

The shipowner ordered the shipwright to move the bodies of the two to the deck, cursed in his heart, knocked on the door of the cabin one by one with a bitter face, and said two words without repeating, just hoping that when he arrived in Shenjing the next day, the guests on the same ship could give a witness.

I can't say it, this time I have to go up and down, and I will be ruined to avoid disasters.

Xue Zhenjun responded in one bite, and did not take or ask for benefits, and the shipowner gave up, so he retreated.

After closing the hatch, Xue Zhenjun turned around to look at Miaozhen, but saw that there was an extra phantom on his side, which was the half of the face that Xue Zhenjun glimpsed in the daytime.

This ghost is not a ghost for the time being, but it is contaminated with evil spirits and is full of anger. The phantom moved left and right, and every time he reached out, he retracted without touching Miaozhen.

Xue Zhenjun saw that the golden light spell on Miaozhen's body was gradually dimming, and immediately pinched the spell with his hand and recited the mantra silently, and pointed his sword at Miaozhen's eyebrows, but when he saw that Miaozhen's body was full of golden light, it disappeared again, and then he looked at the ghost.

Miao Zhen didn't notice anything, and avoided it a little before saying, "What are you doing?" ”

Xue Zhenjun smiled and opened his robe and sat cross-legged, and said, "Naturally, I am doing my old job - surpassing the soul." ”

"Huh?" Miao Jin's face turned pale with fright. She was born with a wide range of acupuncture points around her body, and her perception is much sharper than ordinary people. Even with the blessing of the golden light spell, the ghost is on the side, which still makes it chill all over its body.

She didn't have Xue Zhenjun's eyes that peeked through yin and yang, and looked around vigilantly, only to feel that everywhere she looked looked like a ghost was hidden, and she was so frightened that she moved closer to Xue Zhenjun.

Xue Zhenjun ignored Miao Zhen and only recited the "Mantra of the Past Life" in a low voice.

"The edict of the Taishang, the lonely soul of Chaoru, the ghost of everything, the four lives are gracious.

The headless one is super, the headless one rises, the gun is killed, and the diving rope is suspended.

……

Rescue and other people, rush to overbirth, rescue and other people, rush to overbirth. ”

Xue Zhenjun's voice was low and clear, and a trace of true qi in it dispersed with the sound, affecting the ghost's body, and the ghost seemed to have been washed away repeatedly, with an ethereal body, and every time it was condensed, there was less ferociousness on the body.

After reciting the mantra three times, the ghost has faded into a state of anger. Xue Zhenjun looked at it and saw that the ghost was medium-sized, quite colorful, and looked like he was in his early twenties.

The ghost couldn't speak, but he had regained his consciousness and knew that he was dead, so he immediately sighed slightly and blessed Xue Zhenjun slightly. When he got up, his ethereal figure gradually dissipated, and only three points of light were scattered to disperse, and then flew away.

Xue Zhenjun carried the Zhenqi for a small week, and only then got up and sat down when the Zhenqi was replenished.

Miao Zhen couldn't feel the ghost entanglement anymore, and ironed a lot in her heart, only to feel that she was by Xue Zhenjun's side, and the whole person was a lot more relieved.

She said, "What scripture did the Taoist recite just now? ”

"Death Spell."

"Effective?"

Xue Zhenjun smiled and said, "Naturally, it is useful, otherwise how can Shi Tai feel at ease when he is engraved?" ”

Miao Zhen put his palms together and recited the Buddha's name: "Amitabha, may those who died in vain go to the Western Heaven of Bliss." After a pause, he said: "Since the Taoist has cultivated the Yin and Yang Eyes, he has only seen it...... See the ghost? ”

"I did look twice."

"Then did she say why she died in vain?"

Xue Zhenjun was surprised: "It's not the poor Dao who harmed her, why should the poor Dao care about how she died in vain?" ”

Miao's heart was in a bad mood, and he just had a little good feeling, and it suddenly disappeared at this moment. She frowned and said, "You Taoist priest doesn't know anything!" Since the Daomen claims to be merciful, how can he ignore such a tragic thing? ”

"It's strange, I don't know how many people have died in vain in this world, if you have to take care of the poor road, where is there still great freedom? And heaven and earth are unkind, and all things are used as dogs. The person who harmed her is not a demon, he has his own government to take care of it, so what does he do to be poor? ”

Miao Zhen was so angry that her face turned pale, but in the past few years, she has been practicing and reciting a few Buddhist scriptures, but she doesn't know how to understand it, and she can't argue for a while. I was so angry that my chest rose and fell.

Xue Zhenjun had a little gain in his heart, and there was a good skin in the wonderful vacuum in front of him, but his stomach was empty. He laughed before, and he still had some thoughts, but now he has no more thoughts. This kind of good skin should be left to someone who is destined.

He stretched his waist and yawned, "It's late at night, and the poor road is tired, so you might as well leave it for tomorrow." ”

Turning his head to lay the cover, Xue Zhenjun went straight to the bunk, and fell asleep in a blink of an eye. Na Miaozhen's thoughts were complicated, and she sulked for a while, and when she glanced at Xue Zhenjun's face by the moonlight for a long time, she somehow lost her breath, lay down in her clothes, and fell asleep after a while.

In the blink of an eye, Xue Zhenjun woke up early. I went out of the cabin and asked the boatman for clean water to wash up, and then went to the deck to ventilate.

The smoke on the river is misty, and I heard the boatman say that there was a light snow last night, and it was smoke on the river.

At this time, the ship was not fast, and the old boatman said that he would only be able to reach Shenjing in half an hour.

The proprietor's personal account office came over, brought up the pen and ink documents, and talked with Xue Zhenjun for a few words, so he asked Xue Zhenjun to sign and draw on the documents.

Xue Zhenjun took the paperwork and glanced at it twice, then simply signed his name.

After another moment, everyone woke up one after another. There are rich people with their entourage also come to let off steam, and a few people say a few words, and they say that the Ma scholar and the Jinluan couple have a deep relationship, and the woman dies with the husband, even if he goes to the underworld, he will also be a pair of hard-working mandarin ducks.

Xue Zhenjun smiled even more when he heard this, and only then did he enter the cabin when he vaguely caught a glimpse of the city.

Na Miaozhen also woke up, but her eyes were red, and she didn't sleep well. Seeing Xue Zhenjun coming in, Miao Zhen said angrily: "That Ma scholar harmed a woman, but he turned his head and ended up with a good reputation, which is really depressing." ”

"When a man dies like a lamp goes out, what do you care about doing so much?"

"I just don't resent this person's behavior!"

Xue Zhenjun said with a smile: "People in the world have seven emotions and six desires, and those who are selfish and self-interested do not know how many people are, and every time they have good deeds and good deeds, they will be widely praised." This kind of beautiful thing of life and death makes the world yearn for a little more, what's not bad? Why do you have to debunk it? ”

"But what is fake is fake, not real."

Xue Zhenjun only felt that this woman was extremely simple, shook his head and smiled: "The world is ignorant, where can they care about such truth and falsehood?" Mrs. Shi, you are obsessed. ”

Miao Zhen was silent.

Xue Zhenjun rolled up the cover, straddled the burden diagonally on his body, and said: "Shenjing will arrive in a moment, so let's hurry up and salute." ”

After Miaozhen cleaned up, the two of them went out of the cabin one after the other, and they saw a pitch-black city stretching for dozens of miles.

Xue Zhenjun couldn't take his eyes off it, and only muttered, "This is Shenjing." ”

The boats on the river are coming and going, and when the boats turn into the estuary, they look a little cramped. There were official uniforms and light boats to and fro, Xue Zhenjun's boat received the sails, and a group of boatmen bent back and forth, and it took a long time to dock at the Hexinzhou wharf.

I heard that the boatman said that there are two water gates in Shenjing, but the civilian ships are not allowed to go. Xue Zhenjun led Miaozhen to come down, and saw countless porters coming and going, picking or carrying, moving down one by one.

In the distance, cattle and horses neighed, gathering all kinds of vehicles. There are even hawkers carrying baskets and walking around, and the cries are endless. The two of them are like a young couple who have just entered Shenjing, they only feel that their two eyes are not enough, they look left and right, and their steps are three points slower than others.

The toothed man intercepted the two of them in front of them, and hugged his fists and saluted: "The husband and wife are new to Shenjing?" I don't know if I want to rent a house, live in a hotel, or take a car or a sedan car? ”

Xue Zhenjun asked with great interest: "How much does it cost to take a car?" ”

The tooth man said: "The prince has been invited, and the price of this cow, horse and mule is different." There are many people drawn by ox carts, twelve great dollars per person; If the mule cart is stable, it will cost twenty great dollars; The carriage can only be chartered, and the price is expensive, at least 200 yuan. ”

Xue Zhenjun took out the scattered silver from his sleeve pocket and threw it over: "I can't wait patiently, so I just chartered a carriage and went into the inner city." ”

The tooth man took the broken silver, and immediately smiled: "Xianggong, please." ”

The tooth man led the two men into a carriage outside, talked with the handlebar for a long time, took the advantage and turned to greet the traveler beside him.

The horse is an old horse, winning steadily, the handlebar type shouts twice, and does not move the whip, the carriage squeaks and twists, enters the east gate of the river, and goes towards the inner city.

Xue Zhenjun talked with the handlebar for a long time, and then learned that there are four cities inside and outside Shenjing, eighteen gates of the outer Guo, and thirteen gates of the inner city. In particular, the thirteen gates of the inner city take the meaning of the six stars of the South Dipper and the seven stars of the Big Dipper.

Walking all the way, Xue Zhenjun saw that there were many Goolan Washes on the shore of Mochou Lake, and the scholars and ladies were boating; I also saw that the sound of silk and bamboo on the Qinhuai River was undulating, and the painting boats came and went, and the end was a place where the six dynasties were powdered and drunk.

After passing the stone arch bridge, there is the stone city gate in front of you. Separated by one gate, it is divided into two cities, inner and inner.

Shenjing is four-fold inside and outside, the imperial city occupies two, and the remaining two inner and outer cities are the residence of the people.

As soon as he entered the stone city gate, Xue Zhenjun felt something in his heart, only to feel that he was vaguely swept by a divine sense. However, its cultivation is limited, and its source cannot be traced.

The carriage had barely gone a hundred and ten paces when the handlebar came to a halt.

Miao Zhenqi said: "Why did you stop?" ”

The handlebar style said outside: "The two of you are objective, there are soldiers surrounding you, aren't you two involved in a lawsuit?" ”

Xue Zhenjun wondered in his heart, and when he opened the curtain, he saw an old man with more than a dozen embroidered clothes blocking the frame. The old man was extremely kind.

Xue Zhenjun immediately jumped out of the car, and said with a smile: "Gu Lao's cultivation is really a long time gone. I don't want the trail to enter the Shenjing, Gu Lao's cultivation knows the trail and the behavior. ”

Gu Dingyang stroked his beard and looked at it carefully, and said in surprise: "Huh? It turned out to be Xue Xiaoyou! I haven't seen each other for three years, if it weren't for Xue Xiaoyou's recognition, I'm afraid that the old man wouldn't dare to recognize people indiscriminately. The inner city formation was touched, and the old man broke into the inner city without paying attention to the rules, and he didn't want it to be Xue Xiaoyou! ”
