Chapter 185: Ghost Car
Qiu Niang doesn't know if she can wait until the stone comes out, since the end of the Taihu Lake War, the stone fell into the falling star pool, the next day the ice and snow of Taihu Lake all melted, and there was no trace of the north and south, thousands of people died in Suzhou City, the funerals continued one after another, and the funeral procession on the street appeared on time every day, which lasted for several days, but the prefect of Suzhou still ordered someone to write a green word, only saying that the holy elephant of the frozen Taihu Lake, not mentioning the people who died in Taihu Lake, and also got the emperor's commendation.
I heard Senior Sister Huining say that Master has been worried since she showed up in Taihu Lake and has been worried since she went back, and she doesn't know what she is worried about, maybe she is worried that the enemy will come to the door, or she is worried that her master will come to look for her, but Senior Sister Huining is worried that Master will leave, and she prays sincerely every day.
Qiu Niang remembered that he and his wife were assigned to the northwest together, the leader of the Zhao family was a thousand households surnamed You, after he passed, a lot of the Zhao family's property fell into his pocket, and finally the Zhao family's entanglement was little left, the family was miserable and miserable on the road, and walked to Xiangcheng County, Qiu Niang was infected with a vicious disease, diarrhea for three days, no money for treatment, died, and there was no coffin for burial, and the straw mat was thrown into the mass grave, and finally became a lonely ghost.
Thinking of this, Qiu Niang couldn't help but burst into tears, how many times did she want to go to Ganzhou in the northwest to find his wife and eldest lady, but the road was far away, the ghosts were helpless, and he had to ask about the city and the county along the way, and the land of the city god had to be asked, I don't know how many dangers there are, a yaksha in the ghost road, if you want to find people thousands of miles, how easy it is to say!
Qiu Niang waited by the Taihu Lake for several days, and this day she saw Yin Mengfu and others coming out of the water, so she continued to wait with hope, and sure enough, not long after, a stone was drilled out of the water and volleyed to the northwest.
"Stone!" The overjoyed Qiu Niang chased out, chased for several miles, and left Taihu Lake far away, only to hear someone calling behind him, stopped on the official road, looked back, and saw that it was Qiu Niang, and couldn't help but be a little surprised: "It's you, are you the Yaksha Qiu Niang?"
"It's me, Shishi, you came out of the water?" Qiu Niang stepped forward to check Shishi's whole body to confirm that he was not injured, and he was still wearing the shark gauze clothes.
"Well, I'm fine, what's the matter, you've been waiting there?"
"Master wants me to keep you safe, and I want me to take you to see her, so I've been waiting here for you to come out, by the way, your friend Yin Mengfu also came out before, but he and two other people went to the East China Sea!"
"Ah, as long as he's okay. Shi was slightly relieved, "Qiu Niang, you, do you want me to see your master?"
"As long as you're fine, when the opportunity comes, you'll naturally meet, where are you going now?"
Shi was a little embarrassed: "I'm going to go back to Maoshan now, do you have anything to do with me?"
"Stone, I want to ask you something. ”
"Say it. ”
"What are your parents' names, and where are they now?"
"Ah, this. Shi was embarrassed again, "I'm not afraid of your jokes, I didn't know who my parents were since I was a child, and my master promised me that as long as I obtained the Taoist talisman, he would tell me my life experience." ”
Could it really be him? Qiu Niang's heart warmed, I said how to look at him, this child looks a little similar to the master, and he is destined to meet me, no matter what the result is, I must inquire and understand, "Stone, I am looking for a long-lost relative, so I asked you, don't you mind." ”
"It's fine. "Tomb robbing
"Also, stone, I have a yaksha, although I have some ability, but after all, it is inconvenient to walk, I want to borrow you to make a ghost car, send it to you, and when I find relatives, I will leave. ”
"Ah, what's a ghost car?"
Qiu Niang smiled: "Don't be afraid, the ghost car is the secret word of our ghost road, that is, borrowing a person's body or utensils to hide, and you can use the host to move around, like a rented carriage." ”
Shi looked down at his body and wondered, "Where are you going to hide in me?" I already have a Feng Tianhuan in my arm, and I want another ghost thing, how many sins have I created in my last life, and I have been recruiting ghost things?
"Is there something on you? The yin qi is extremely heavy, I feel it. ”
The stone turned out all the things in his arms, obsidian, scattered silver wrapped in handkerchiefs, a scroll of Taoism, and a book of mountains and seas, all of which were shown to Qiu Niang, Qiu Niang shook her head, and finally the stone remembered that there was a jade wrench hanging around her neck, and pulled it out for Qiu Niang to see.
"Yes, that's it, this wrench is very yin, I'll hide in it, and when I find my relatives, I will thank you heavily." ”
The stone remembered that this wrench was when he watched Luo Tian Dajiao in Lingyun Temple, he rescued the eunuch Wang Chen from the hands of ghosts, and the prince gave the jade wrench he carried to the stone in order to repay the grace of saving his life, and the stone did not want to wear it conspicuously on his hand, so he found a rope to hang around his neck, and he usually hid it in his clothes and could not see it, and he couldn't think of the ghost car used to make a yaksha today.
The stone put the things away in their original state, took off the shark yarn clothes and hid them in his arms, holding the jade wrench in his hand, Qiu Niang said a blessing, and his body shook into the jade wrench, and the stone lowered his head and whispered to the jade wrench: "Qiu Niang, I, I haven't taken a bath for a few days, you bear with it." ”
Stone since eating the marble cooked by the Samadhi fire under the Falling Star Pond, the foundation of the road is getting stronger and stronger, and the kung fu on the feet has also been greatly improved, the road from Taihu Lake to Maoshan is dozens of miles, he half walked and half flew, and arrived at Jurong County at dawn without a night.
It was still early in the day, and he was afraid that going back at this time would disturb the master's rest, so he sat down on the side of the road at the foot of the mountain, closed his eyes and recuperated until the day was bright, and then he stepped up the mountain.
At this time, it has come to the lunar season, the people under the mountain have begun to prepare for the New Year, early in the morning to go to the market to sell the Spring Festival application of pastries and meat, those vendors, merchants are early to set up stalls and wait, the men, women and children who rush to the market also come in groups from all directions, the streets of Jurong City soon become lively, shouting, the cry of mules and horses, the conversation of buying and selling, one after another.
Shi saw the lively morning market, and suddenly remembered that it was now the wax moon, I don't know if the view has also prepared fish, rice, grain and oil, in the past, these were all purchased by himself and his master and brother in person, and he wandered outside for so long, I don't know how the master and his brother lived? Thinking about myself, I am really ashamed, the master raised himself with hard work, and he did not serve the master with all his heart, but he was sad for his own wishful thinking, and he had some spring dreams outside, and as a result, people even gave birth to children, which is really humiliating, really unfilial, and really humiliating!
The more the stone thought about it, the more sad it became, the road up the mountain became more and more difficult, the steps were difficult to walk, but the tears couldn't stop flowing, this cry scared Feng Tianhuan and Qiu Niang enough, Feng Tianhuan muttered in a low voice: "Stone, you don't want to go back to see the master, why are you crying?"
"No, it's none of your business, you shut up. ”
Walking all the way and crying all the way, the stone finally came to the door of Maoshan Huayang Temple, he sighed, no matter what, I have to face the master and the junior brother, I will be filial to the master in the future, but this time I still have to help Zhang Ruyi, if the master stops me, I will kneel down and plead.
After thinking of an idea, the stone went up the steps, and was about to call the door, when suddenly he heard the sound of laughter from behind the door, as if there was a woman's voice!
