Chapter 8: Midnight Terror
The two finished lunch and spent time at a nearby park.
In the center of the park there is a pavilion called the Drunken Immortal Pavilion, which has a wide view and can see the main gate of the mental hospital.
Han Jiangxue sat on the stone bench in the pavilion, tapping the screen of her mobile phone while writing hard in her notebook.
Song Yu lay on the fence and looked at the lotus leaves in the lake, the gentle breeze stirred the surface of the lake, and there were ripples in a circle, he was fascinated, his upper and lower eyelids fought, and he almost fell asleep.
"By the way, then again, who is that Concubine Hua Niangniang, there doesn't seem to be any mention of this person in the history books."
Song Yu was blown by the cool breeze, and suddenly came to his senses, he turned to look at Han Jiangxue, his face full of doubts.
Han Jiangxue put down the pen in her hand, picked up the notebook, and explained to Song Yu: "According to the record of "Longquan County Chronicle", during the Ming Dynasty, the Hua family was the most powerful rich family in Longquan County. In the tenth year of Chongzhen, Hua Renbao, the big boss of the Hua family, in order to get an official and a half position for his eldest son Hua Bing in the imperial court, he listened to the advice of the county order and sent the youngest daughter Hua Zhuzhu, who was in the year of cardamom and slim, into the palace, hoping that she could win the favor of the emperor, so as to enhance the influence of the Hua family in the court. It's a pity that it backfired, after Hua Pearl entered the palace, she did not get the emperor's favor, but was squeezed out by other concubines in the harem. In the thirteenth year of Chongzhen, someone complained to the emperor, framing Hua Pearl as Wei Zhongxian's remnants and plotting to set off a rebellion in the palace. Emperor Chongzhen was furious, so he gave Hua pearl to drink poisonous wine and cut himself. After Hua Zhu's death, the body was transported back to Longquan by the Hua family for burial, and the specifications were comparable to those of princes and nobles. This matter spread to the court, the court thought that the Hua family was powerful and was suspected of rebellion, and Emperor Chongzhen issued an order to exile the Hua family to Hainan Island, and all the property of the Hua family was confiscated and confiscated, and the prosperous Longquan Hua family withdrew from the historical stage.
Perhaps in response to the sentence that the tree fell and the tree was scattered, after the Hua family lost power, almost all the officials in Longquan County were replaced, and the newly appointed Longquan County Commander received a secret order from the imperial court to destroy Concubine Hua's luxurious tomb, and buried the golden silk nanmu coffin buried Concubine Hua in a pit at the foot of Heifeng Mountain. Since then, there have been rumors in the area of Heifeng Mountain that Concubine Hua's ghost has not disappeared and turned into a ghost. ”
Song Yu listened to it and said with some sympathy: "Concubine Hua suffered a great grievance during her lifetime, and after her death, she was dug up and her coffin was dug up, no wonder she has such a big grievance." ”
Han Jiangxue put away her notebook, and her expression became extremely heavy: "More than three hundred years have passed since Concubine Hua's death, and her soul has always been entrenched in the Black Wind Mountain, and even the ghosts of the underworld can't do anything about her. After three centuries, Concubine Hua's resentment could not be released, and she finally turned into an extremely powerful corpse ghost. ”
When Song Yu heard this, a thick layer of goosebumps appeared on his back, it was the scorching heat at this time, and the scorching sun was scorching the earth, although the weather was unbearable, Song Yu still felt a cold air rushing from the soles of his feet to his head, making him shudder.
Han Jiangxue walked to Song Yu's side, lowered her voice and said: "Concubine Hua's strength is far beyond our imagination, we must be cautious in our negotiations tonight, if anything happens, we must remember - thirty-six strategies are the best, don't fight with her." ”
Song Yu nodded silently, his thoughts disturbed.
"But I still don't understand, since Concubine Hua is so powerful, why didn't she directly kill Hao Ren who was blocking the ward? With her spiritual cultivation (the cultivation of energy bodies such as ghosts), wouldn't it be easy to kill a few ordinary people? ”
Han Jiangxue was stunned, the information she had at the moment was extremely limited, and she couldn't answer Song Yu's two questions.
The afternoon passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it was evening, and the two hurriedly had dinner, returned to the mental hospital, and prepared to negotiate with Concubine Hua.
Maybe it was the calm before the storm, tonight's mental hospital was a little unusually quiet, Wang Jinlai, who was noisy during the day, consciously shrunk into the bed to sleep after dinner, and the attending doctor couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw this situation: "Finally, I don't need to inject him with sedatives." ”
When the time came to 11 o'clock in the evening, Song Yu and Han Jiangxue sat on the benches in the aisle, quietly waiting for Concubine Hua to appear.
"Song Yu, I forgot to tell you something, I left in a bit of a hurry today, and I didn't have time to take you to pick up the equipment. If there is a fight later, try not to do it, just leave it to me. ”
After speaking, Han Jiangxue took out a silver revolver from the inside pocket of her suit, and the body of the gun was engraved with a tadpole-shaped charm.
"This is a magic weapon for members of the supernatural task force, the exorcism revolver, which was developed and manufactured by the Special Weapons and Equipment Department under the National Security Bureau. The charm engraved on the body of the gun is a Qiankun Fu magic spell that is blessed with the mana of Taoism, and it can be equipped with 11 exorcism bullets engraved with the same charm. ”
Song Yu took the revolver of exorcism, looked at it curiously, and couldn't help but sigh in a low voice: "In the past, magic weapons were all cold weapons such as peach wood swords and copper coin swords, but I didn't expect that with the development of this day, even hot weapons can come in handy as exorcism tools, it seems that the times have really changed!" ”
In addition to sighing, Song Yu asked with some confusion: "Jiang Xue, can this exorcism bullet cause damage to the spirit body?" ”
Han Jiangxue took the revolver and replied while filling the magazine with bullets: "The exorcism bullet is designed to effectively kill special energy bodies, and when Brother Ye was on a mission before, he used the exorcism revolver to kill several infant spirits that had become climates, which was much trickier than ordinary ghosts. ”
While the two were talking, a cold wind suddenly blew in the aisle, and the temperature around them plummeted, as if they had fallen into a three-foot ice cave.
"Jiang Xue, she's here!"
Through the flickering lights, Song Yu and Han Jiangxue saw a woman wearing a phoenix crown at the end of the corridor, her body suspended in the air a few centimeters above the ground, slowly floating towards Wang Jinlai's hospital room.
"That's it, Concubine Hua!"
Han Jiangxue and Song Yu jumped up to block the middle of the road, Song Yu pulled out the stance, once the other party made trouble and suppressed Han Jiangxue, he would launch the "Red Blood Technique" to help.
At this moment, a low, resentful voice came from the woman's mouth: "Get out of the way, this matter has nothing to do with you!" ”
Han Jiangxue clenched the exorcism revolver in her hand, and said righteously: "People and ghosts have different paths, you are forced to stay in the Yang world, not to mention violating the laws of the underworld, and even mutilating people's lives, which is even more intolerable by heaven!" ”
"Heavenly reason? Hmph, what is Tianli, Tianli is my Hua Pearl should die? Does my Hua family deserve to be exiled? ”
Han Jiangxue's words stimulated Concubine Hua, and the other party talked endlessly about how she was bullied by the harem concubines during her lifetime, and how she was suspicious of the emperor, and finally had to hang herself.
"For so many years, I have lived a life of indisputability at the foot of the Black Wind Mountain, and I never thought that a few thieves would come to steal my grave at night. Not only did they snatch most of my funeral goods, but they didn't even let go of the Zhuyan Dan in their mouths! That villager named Wang Jinlai even wanted to take off the phoenix crown and embroidered shoes I wore when I was buried. In retaliation against them, I killed two tomb robbers on the spot, deliberately let one of them go, and left him for later to be tortured slowly. As for Mr. Yin and Yang who instigated the villagers to rob the tomb, he slipped away in the middle of the way, and I don't know where to hide, and even I can't determine the exact location of his hiding place with spiritual practice. ”
Concubine Hua poured beans into a bamboo tube and told the reason for the tragic death of the tomb robber, Han Jiangxue and Song Yu couldn't help but smile at each other when they heard it.
"I didn't expect there to be a windfall."
