Chapter Ninety-Nine: Pheasant Tracks, Bodhisattva Solicitation
Zhang Yuan worked hard to write a book and wrote a book for a night.
When I got up in the morning, I saw my wife packing up and preparing to take the two girls to Xuanduguan.
"Wait...... Wait a minute...... You went to Xuandu Temple so early, and you haven't eaten breakfast yet!"
"We brought refreshments and prepared mats for the road. Mrs. Zhang said: "People saved us yesterday, of course we have to go to Xuandu to pay homage to the incense and thank you." Now how many people in Dongyao City have been blessed with the favor of the Taoist, we are late, and people may not have time to see us. ”
Mrs. Zhang is not the only one who has this idea. When the ladies opened the door, they saw a dense crowd on the street outside. Several avenues in Dongyao City were crowded with people, and they hurried to Xuandu Temple.
However, even though they came to the Xuandu Temple, the door of the temple was not opened, and Lord Xu Guan was studying the information brought back by Huxchen with the cultivators.
Huxchen captured a group of demons and interrogated Xu Bai all night. When Ren Hong, Lei Lingzi and others rushed to inquire, Xu Bai said: "I didn't explain anything useful. Just a few informants they planted in the city. ”
"Because those informants are mortals, go back and let the yamen send someone to solve it. The current problem is still the heart-devouring red. The corpse we brought back yesterday may not be right. ”
"Isn't that right?" Ren Hong thought about it, and also thought of Huxchen's speculation last night: "Did they drop the bag in advance?"
"Not bad. ”
"Where can a corpse be hidden?" Fu Shubao: "If they plant someone in the grave guard, maybe they are still in the grave mountain?" It just so happens that we are going to do something over there today, so it is better to look for it again." ”
Didn't the group of people outside the Taoist temple just want to offer incense to thank them, and then invite them to go to the tomb to practice the Dharma to comfort their ancestors' spirits?
"Otherwise, it's smuggled back to the city, where are the corpses hidden?" Pu Chun: "Let's talk to the yamen again, let's look for it?"
Huxchen: "The best place to hide a corpse is a corpse pile. Maybe it's a place to store corpses, or a righteous village. ”
Xu Bai saw Ren Hong bowing his head and pondering, and couldn't help asking, "What do you think?"
Ren Hong came back to his senses, and after listening to Xu Bai's question again, he replied: "If I hide the corpse, I will dismember the corpse, hide it in a small box, and then throw it into the treasury of each prefecture." Anyway, the warehouses of those big families are not counted every day. Then rotate the transfer locations and put them together when you need to use them. ”
Dismember?
Fu Shubao's little face turned blue, that's too miserable, right?
Ren Hong: "I was thinking about one thing just now. Why is the rumor based on Li Bin describing a female ghost?"
Yan Li: "It's just a rumor, how can it be based on the real gender? Maybe it's a mistake in the market?"
"No, I understand what Evergreen Daoist means. Huxchen suddenly realized: "Since men and women are the same, why don't you choose a gender that is consistent with the original?"
"Thinking from a normal point of view, the murderer is a man. They then imprisoned or killed them as a strange refuge. So along this line of thought, isn't it okay to just say that it's a male murderer? Why did you become a woman when spreading rumors?"
"It's that they don't guide, and the rumors spontaneously change. Or is there a purpose behind this?"
"Yes, that's my question. Is there any benefit to them in deliberately tampering with gender?"
Huxchen lowered his head and thought for a while, shook his head and said, "I really didn't understand this. But now that you've caught someone, you can ask them again. ”
He went down again with a fierce sword and interrogated him.
And Ren Hong mentioned another thing: "Lord, yesterday's abnormal movement, the one-horned ghost king fled, I don't know if he has any news? Will he escape back to the netherworld?"
"In the secluded world, there are not a hundred ghost kings with horns on their foreheads, but also eighty. I checked from the Xuandu Palace, but I didn't find any news of the one-horned ghost king. It's just that the Xuanduguan next door sent a message, saying that he saw a ghost fire in the suburban cemetery last night. ”
A graveyard in the town next door?
Ren Hong was thoughtful.
When a person dies, his soul returns to the world. Because of the contamination of yin energy, places like cemeteries naturally form cracks that connect with the secluded world. However, the gap is generally too small for evil spirits to pass through.
"I'll go and have a look. Lei Lingzi reported his bravery: "Today I will go to the next town and kill the one-horned ghost king as much as possible, so as not to cause trouble." ”
Yan Li: "Daoyou is planning to escape the troubles of Fu Ling Jiao, right?"
This time, the one-horned ghost king made trouble in the tomb mountain, and the people in the city were worried that the ancestral spirit would be disturbed, and they planned to ask Xuanduguan to help do things to comfort the ancestors.
After this matter is tossed, how can Xuandu Guan's own family have enough hands? I'm afraid that Lord Xu Guan will ask them for help again.
And how much good deeds are there for Dharma and Jiao, and one or two points of good deeds are not enough to make a contribution.
Therefore, Lei Lingzi planned to take his junior brother to avoid it.
Ren Hong also took the opportunity to say: "I also have some things, I had an epiphany yesterday, and today I have made great progress, and I want to retreat and practice." ”
Everyone looked at him, and they did feel a little change in the true yuan aura. Especially Lei Lingzi and the others felt it more deeply, as if they felt the traces of Qingwei Thunder Law on him?
"Since it's a practice, it's inconvenient for the old way to bother. It's just that if you are free, you might as well find Li Bin's body in the city. ”
"Yes, I know. ”
......
After the one-horned ghost king escaped last night, he hid in the cemetery in the next town to recuperate. Just when Huxchen caught the devil, he also encountered a change.
There was a candle flame fluttering in front of the grave, and eighteen dark blue flames surrounded him.
The ghost king's heart jumped, he watched the flames carefully, and suddenly thought of a certain rumor, and asked in a trembling voice, "But the Bodhisattva Dharma Driver?"
Laughter echoed in the cold night, and the woman's voice flickered: "I'm not an aunt, you recognize the wrong person." ”
Eighteen candles looked forward, and they were nine similar-looking bird heads, and the candle flames were the eighteen eyes of the nine-headed birds.
The nine-headed pheasant spirit said: "But when I came this time, I really want to ask the ghost king if I want to follow my aunt." ”
"Shanlai Bodhisattva wants to recruit me?"
The ghost king's face was overjoyed, thinking that he would be punished by the king of Qi after his defeat, and he immediately thought of finding another backer.
Shanlai Bodhisattva is the name established by a certain big demon ghost in the dark world after breaking into the yang world. She wants to practice the way of gods and Buddhas and preach the throne.
This backer is much harder than King Qi.
Nine bird heads danced in the wind: "Exactly, my aunt's promotion to the fruit position is just around the corner, and she needs the help of all the Dharma protectors." If the ghost king is willing to take refuge in his aunt, and in the future, he will become the protector of the Bodhisattva throne before the gods, isn't it better than just a yin ghost?"
The one-horned ghost king moved, and the two sides hit it off, planning to immediately go with her to the Bodhisattva Seat of Shanlai.
But emerging from the graveyard, the ghost king thought of something again: "I don't know what to call the girl?"
"I'm the ninth in the family, so you can call me 'Nine Girls'. ”
"Nine girls. I escaped from Dongyao City and became separated from the two female ghosts, I wonder if the Nine Girls can follow me to find them?"
"Dongyao City? Huxchen, known as the 'Empty Tongue', was guarding there. This girl won't be stupid and bump into it. No matter how good-looking a man is, what's the use of not knowing how to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade?"
Huxchen?
The one-horned ghost king looked dazed, he obviously didn't know the identity of this person when he first came to the world.
"Besides, you dare to peep at the people of Chang Huan Pavilion?" The nine-headed pheasant essence smiled: "Aren't you afraid that those female ghosts will swallow you?" ”
A hint of disappointment flashed across the Ghost King's face. But then the ninth girl said: "But if your aunt enters the Dao Fruit, you will make a great contribution to her old man's family and go to Chang Huan Pavilion to ask for two female ghosts." I believe that Chang Huan Ge will give this face. After all, outside of Kunlun, Chang Huan Pavilion is not happy to have one more Dao Monarch enemy, right?"
