Chapter 15 The flowers are deep and secluded, and no one will return to anyone
The moon is empty.
The night breeze blew through the long street, and the mist on the ground was surging, and there were not many pedestrians on the street, and the vendors of the night stalls packed up their stalls and hurried away, and the fog was filled, and a faint lantern was burning with fire, and came towards this side.
Knock knock knock.....
"Be careful of the candles, close the doors and windows to prevent thieves, and the king next door is ......"
Knock Knock –
In the thin mist, the figure of the watchman came slowly from the end of the street, the lantern inserted in the back of the neck shook gently, and occasionally a dog barked in the distance, and the footsteps stopped, raised the lantern, and peeked at the edge of the street not far ahead.
The firelight shook suddenly in the paper cage, showing the bodies of eight or nine people walking side by side, so frightened that everyone trembled in place a few times, and saw that among the lying people, one of the shorter figures raised his face, glanced at him, and continued to bury his head.
The slight sound of squirming and snoring.
The one who played the shift immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and looked back as he walked.
"My mother..... can scare people to death, and you're still on the street in the middle of the night, beware of the evil spirits over there at Fuller Place. ”
The scolding words disappeared into the mist as the watchman disappeared.
Knock Knock...... The ethereal sound of bangzi sounded faintly in the distance, Lu Liangsheng straightened up, rubbed his somewhat dry eyes, picked up the paper-like paper spread out on the ground, and blew the ink on it that had not yet dried.
With the moonlight, coupled with excellent eyesight, I finally imitated that model article and wrote the contradiction between the village and the North Village clearly, fortunately, I had also read "Nanshui Collection" and "Qinghuai Mending Dream" before, in addition to the spell, there are mostly some short stories about the origin of the spell.
According to the above account, it is also possible to explain the truth of the matter, which is Lu Liangsheng's greatest effort.
After folding the paper, he put it in his arms, and then he remembered the toad in the package, and in the snoring of Lu Pan and others, Lu Liangsheng gently opened the mouth of the bag.
"Master....." He whispered, and peeked at the eight men who were asleep over there.
After a while, I didn't see any reaction from the toad, probably thinking that he was asleep, so he closed the mouth of the bag, sighed lightly, and reached out to grab something in the package.
Lu Liangsheng came to the side of the street, and by the moonlight, the palm of his spread palm was a sharp hard object of more than an inch, cyan and black, and he stroked it with his fingertips, and he could feel that there were fine and dense particles on it, while the other end was wider and had obvious fractures.
"When did I have this......
"It was the thing on the head of the little demon last night, which was cut off by the inscription of the mountain god, if it was replaced by a good teacher, how could this kind of monster be allowed to behave ..... nonsense. ”
Lu Liangsheng heard a familiar voice, and when he turned around, the toad Taoist stood there with his flippers on his back, slowly walked out of the package, and looked at the foreign object in the young man's hand.
He turned his head again and looked at the cold moon in the sky.
"The things on this little demon are very chicken, but you can use them. ”
"How do you use this monster?"
The toad raised the frog flipper and pointed to the brush that Lu Liangsheng put on the ground: "As a pen holder, it can also play a little." ”
The boy sitting on the side of the street looked at the corner of the centipede's head in his hand and thought for thought.
"Master, this is what you called the strange fate that day, right?"
"See through it, don't say it..... quack!" The toad put on his back his back, shook his head, but scolded in his heart: If the old man knew that there was such a strange fate, he would not call the centipede demon and make him disgraced.
Immediately, the Purple Star Daoist waved his face.
These words stop there. ”
The conversation changed: "When you enter the foundation building, I will teach you the refining ..... for the teacher."
"..... raindrops, falling eaves, chilling......... wind is cold, slave looks at Daddy from afar, crying and breaking his bowels....... all kinds of kindness will never be ......."
The voice gradually became quieter, and Lu Liangsheng, who was waiting for him to speak, was about to speak, his brows were slightly furrowed, and he looked at the end of the long street, "It seems that someone is singing opera just now......"
The fog was filled, and in the night wind, there was a faint and faint drama, mixed with the sound of cymbals and gongs and drums, echoing in the empty streets, and at this time, the lights were still on and the lights were quickly extinguished.
"..... Baochai jade beads put ..... on his head, put on colorful clothes, open his voice, and play a song of ten thousand guests...... Who knows..... who knows....."
The singing of 'ah' was long and complaining, and Lu Liangsheng had goosebumps all over his body when he listened.
"Master....singing such a grievance in the middle of the night, there won't be any woman who can't say anything in her heart, right?"
Next to him, the toad Taoist just snorted, as if he was not interested in singing the source of opera, and when he was about to say back to his previous words, the faint drama suddenly changed.
"..... know that Chen Lang is upright and sent a scholar to bury the body of the slave ....... half a foot of Hongling, and the maggots under the mud suck the blood of the slave, and who knows the inscription on the mud....."
The tone was cold, and a gust of wind blew.
Lu Liangsheng stood up, the coldness disappeared again, but the eight strong men who were sleeping over there were in a dream, subconsciously holding their arms and rubbing them a few times, thinking that they felt cold.
The Purple Star Daoist looked at them and looked in a certain direction.
"Hmph..... I want to be a teacher in this world for many years, I haven't seen any demons and monsters, this kind of charming and ghostly person is also worthy of ...... with the old man."
At the same time as he said this, Lu Pan's voice sounded: "Liangsheng, why don't you sleep yet?"
Before the toad who was carrying the flippers on his back finished speaking, he was suddenly pressed down by Lu Liangsheng, and his limbs were wide open and sticking to the ground.
The young man turned around and said with a smile: "Just sleep, I just finished writing." ”
"Then you rest quickly, and if it's cold, squeeze into the middle. Lu Pan hugged the short coat covering his body, retracted his arms, turned over, and continued to sleep.
Lu Liangsheng let go of his hand, and the toad jumped up, glaring at the toad eyes angrily.
"You press again to test ..... teacher"
Under the wall over there, there was another sound, someone sat up, Lu Liangsheng hurriedly stretched out his hand and pressed it, and as soon as the toad's voice said the last word 'try', it stopped abruptly and was stuck on the ground.
Zixing Dao's face was against the ground, and his face was deformed.
"Criminals ....."
Lu Qing, who got up, walked to the side of the street in a daze, untied the ties of his pants, and heard the sound of rushing water, trembling twice before lying back down.
The long street quieted down, and the deep and gloomy drama before disappeared, and in the distance, the sound of dogs barking and beating was heard.
The young man raised his palm, the toad pressed below was motionless, Lu Liangsheng touched it with his hand, and was opened by the Purple Star Daoist lying on his stomach.
"Don't bother me!"
Got up, and strode towards the package with anger.
"The old man didn't finish speaking, he was either interrupted by that, or he was interrupted by this, and he was pressed to the ground and rubbed by you, a criminal, the old man stopped playing!"
stepped into the package and covered the mouth of the bag: "Don't come and disturb me, I'm sleeping for the teacher." ”
Lu Liangsheng didn't know where to offend the master, but he didn't bother, sat next to the package, leaned against the wall and thought about some things, including the opera he just heard, and fell asleep.
At dawn the next day, a group of nine people were woken up by the errand patrolling the streets, and reprimanded, facing the people of the official office, Lu Pan and others couldn't afford to play a role, nodded again and again, pulled Lu Liangsheng away, and went to the nearby streets and alleys to find a well of water to prepare for washing, but the well was surrounded by people.
said something in one ear after another, and his face was dodgy.
"Did you hear that last night?"
"I heard it, the strange ..... said it in my family before, I still don't believe it, there is really that voice, it's too scary. ”
"...... I slept all night with my head covered, and I didn't dare to stick out a single bit. ”
......
"What are they talking about?What was the sound last night?" Lu Pan and the others, who were standing not far away waiting for the water, looked at each other, all of them in a daze.
At that moment, a figure ran in from the alley and waved at the crowd.
"I just heard the news that Chen Yuanwai's family has died again, and the people from the yamen have gone. ”
At this time, the people who were originally talking exploded, and they didn't even beat the water, and they gathered around to discuss.
Here, the nine people have important things to do, and it is not their own business, just listen to it, hit the well water, simply scrub it twice, rinse their mouths, and then go to the yamen.
After arriving, Lu Pan took the paper from the boy's arms, he couldn't read it, anyway, it was dense handwriting, very good-looking, and Liangsheng was a nephew, from the same village, so he could naturally trust it.
Handed over the complaint to the guard of the door, the other party took it, looked at it, and nodded: "The words are good, but your petition is on paper, and for a while, you can't make noise to go to ......the court."
Heavy footsteps suddenly sounded behind the officer, and the two men guarding the door hurriedly retreated to the sides, puffed up their chests, and stood straight.
The figure in a soapy blue close-fitting robe dragged out of the yamen with a cloak, covered with brown leather armor, a slender knife with black shark skin around his waist, and white cloth boots on a black background, stepped down the stone steps step by step, and did not look at Lu Liangsheng and others standing next to him, stepped on the horses brought by the messengers, and turned over directly.
The man grabbed the reins and took more than a dozen hunters out into the streets.
"You also saw it just now, that is the left catcher of this county, and he is about to be promoted to the thief Cao on the other side of the county, and now he has to go out in person....... there is a big incident in the local Chen Yuanwai family, and other things can only be put aside first, and then done later." ”
The officer stood back in his place, waved his hand and began to chase people.
