Chapter 18: Catching Demons with Words
The old man of the Sun family took this one-foot-square rice paper with the word "dragon" written on it from the hands of the government office, and looked at it carefully, this paper is ordinary rice paper, this word is not good, it can only be said to be neat, the ink on it is cyan, unheard of, and asked the government messenger in confusion at the moment, "May I ask the prefect to give this word, can you get rid of the demon?"
The government sent people to nod again and again, "My lord asked the villain to come and convey it, and asked Master Sun to paste this word into the house of the monsters, and he will be able to see it at night." ”
The old man of the Sun family will be suspicious, these days, the strong men and Buddhists who came to eliminate the demons at the invitation of the government, there are not thirty but more than twenty, so many people are guarding the courtyard, and they are still being brought in by the monsters, and all the people are fascinated to the ground, I don't know why. The monster took the opportunity to enter the building and bewitched his daughter, which was simply too deceitful! The old man of the Sun family even had the heart of moving out of this city, but the royal court was not prosperous, and there were robbers and monsters everywhere.
It is really difficult for one's family to go out of the city and drag their families with them, and if they encounter bandits, they will not escape their hands and harm the lives of their families in vain. That's why the old man of the Sun family dragged the whole family to stay in the city, even if there were monsters rampant in the house every night, he didn't dare to leave, that's the reason. Staying in the city still has some active thoughts, leaving this city, there are many auspicious and few auspicious people, and there are many soldiers in the city, at least there will be no large-scale banditry. There is that small village in the mountains, which was slaughtered by bandits or monsters overnight, and I don't know when this court will be able to regain its strength, sweep away the universe, and clarify Yuyu.
The old man of the Sun family thought about it a lot, and then he came back to his senses, and saw that the government was still standing in front of him, and everyone in the family was waiting for him to speak. As soon as he looked at it, his own servant handed a tael of silver to the government messenger as a reward.
The government sent someone to take the silver, wiped it on his waist, and the silver disappeared, obviously extremely skillful, nodded and bent over, "Thank you Master Sun for the reward." My lord said, let me stay at your house tonight, see the effect of this word, if you can really catch the monster, my lord will handle the case overnight, and correct this monster. ”
When the old man of the Sun family heard this, his eyes were full of tears, and he praised in his mouth, "Thank you to the prefect for his high righteousness and concern for the people." Come on, quickly put on the banquet and invite this official of the government to the banquet!" "When the government sent someone to hear that there was a banquet to eat, he thanked happily, "Master Sun doesn't have to be so polite, the villain just came to pass the word, how can he be qualified to enjoy the banquet?"
"Yes, yes. The officials also invited them to sit in the side hall, and I went to paste this word into the room, so it was inconvenient to accompany me. Steward, you will accompany me. "There was already a housekeeper who stepped forward and led the government to the side hall, and Master Sun rushed to the backyard with the words, his daughter's embroidery building.
On the embroidery floor, Mrs. is talking with her daughter, the Sun family is this single seedling, born rich and noble, but it is a hard life, married a husband but died in an accident within two months, in the husband's family is not welcomed, gossip a lot, had to swallow the anger and return to the mother's house. Unexpectedly, disasters came one after another, and they actually attracted monsters to turn into daughters and deceased husbands, and deceived them into happiness. The whole family couldn't catch it after several tosses, so he had to sue the government and ask the prefect to call the shots.
Looking at the weeping lady and daughter at the table, Master Sun sighed, lifted the curtain and entered. When the lady and daughter heard the sound of the bead curtain, they all looked back.
"It turned out that the master was here. Mrs. Sun is over forty years old, usually eats fasting and recites Buddha, very well maintained, this time the daughter is in this big disaster, but also worried, only said that she chanted every day on weekdays, the critical moment of the gods and Buddhas are useless, accompany her daughter to talk, lest her daughter can't think about it, do something stupid, see your own master into the door, quickly got up to say hello.
The daughter of the Sun family also stood up and lowered her head to greet her father, "My daughter has seen her father." "The voice is as small as a mosquito fly.
The old man of the Sun family sighed in his heart, "Your mother and daughter don't have to worry, I have sued the court, there are many capable people in the court, and this demon will definitely be caught." ”
When the daughter of the Sun family heard this, her tears flowed even more fiercely, "It's the daughter who has disgraced the family." It's the daughter who is sorry for her father, and the father is tired of running around for his daughter's affairs, and the daughter just hopes that it is better to die and not cause chaos in the family. ”
When Mrs. heard this, she was so anxious that she grabbed her daughter's sleeve, "Qin'er, you have been well-behaved and obedient since you were a child, how can you say this to make your parents sad." If you leave, leaving me and my lord, alone, how can you live?"
Pity the hearts of parents all over the world, when the old man of the Sun family heard this, he was upset in his heart, and shouted in a low voice, "Don't always die." The prefect sent someone to send a pair of words, saying that he could catch demons, and he would watch it tonight. After speaking, he took out the word written by Lu Xihua from his sleeve and placed it in front of the mother and daughter.
Gaohong Gaozhifu, in this state, has a great reputation, integrity, and good governance of the people, and is deeply supported by the people. Before that, he also cracked the epidemic case in the city in one fell swoop, and sentenced more than a dozen people to death in one go. At this moment, as soon as they heard that the prefect sent someone to send strange things to eliminate demons, the mother and daughter hurriedly got up, wiped away their tears, and looked at the hand of the master of the Sun family.
The daughter of the Sun family looked at the cyan character and said, "Daddy, this character is not like it was written by the Kochi Mansion, and the word is cyan, which is also strange." ”
The old man of the Sun family nodded, "I don't think it was written by the Kochi Mansion, it must have been written by a strange person and dedicated to the Kochi Mansion." The prefect also arranged for a messenger to come to the house, just to catch the demon and be punished. ”
"The Bodhisattva blesses, I only hope that this word has a spirit. Madame also opened her mouth to persuade, like an indulgent person, holding a straw in his hand, always a little hope. The family of three began to discuss where best to put the word in the house.
Late at night, Zeng Xiaoyi was ready to go out on time, and the white fox stopped him, "Brother Xiaoyi, what are you doing when you go out this night?"
Zeng Xiaoyi's face was full of peach blossoms, and he was in high spirits, waving his hand, "Where do you know anything about a brute, just drink your wine." ”
The white fox said worriedly, "Brother Xiaoyi, I heard from the neighbors during the day recently that the Sun family in the neighborhood is making trouble, I wonder if you did it?"
Zeng Xiaoyi was not happy when he heard this, and his face turned sideways, "What do you care about so much? You eat and drink for nothing in my house, and you have chicken and meat every day, have I ever treated you badly? You don't care about these little things!" After speaking, he walked out angrily.
The white fox shouted behind him, "Brother Xiaoyi, Brother Xiaoyi!" Zeng Xiaoyi didn't hear it, his mind was full of the snow-white carcass of the lady of the Sun family, and her seductive appearance. Zeng Xiaoyi is twenty years old, and he has not raised it before, and it is a mirror to marry a wife and have children. After meeting the lady of the Sun family that night, he knew the wonders of men and women, and he was so happy that he couldn't listen to the persuasion of others at all, so he hurriedly ran to the Sun family.
When he came to the vicinity of Sun's house, Zeng Xiaoyi easily entered the house and ran to the embroidery building of the Sun family's lady.
As usual, the guards and vicious dogs around the embroidery building were stunned, and quietly went up to the embroidery building, and smelled the familiar and charming fragrance in the nose, which was the body fragrance of the Sun family's lady. Zeng Xiaoyi couldn't bear the power of the flood in his body, so he took three steps and made two steps, opened the bead curtain and threw himself into the room, and said with a smile, "Lady, come for your husband." ”
Stepping into the door, I saw a wonderful curvy figure lying on the bed, the shadow Zhuo Zhuo was hidden behind the tulle, his body trembled slightly, it was the lady of the Sun family. Zeng Xiaoyi happily pounced on it, and wanted to do good things with him.
I saw that above the bedside, a dragon's roar sounded, and everyone in the courtyard could hear it, and the unconscious people on the ground also woke up in this sound.
"What is this sound?!" Master Sun was in a daze, and heard a strange sound, which went straight to his heart, clear and grand, and made people feel awe.
"This is Longyu!" a cultivator shouted loudly in the courtyard, "Where did you come from?!"
Before, Zeng Xiaoyi sneaked into Sun's house, and everyone fell asleep in the maze, until they woke up during the day, I don't know what happened at night, this time Long Yu woke up the whole hospital, and suddenly it became clear that there were masters hunting demons!
"Go to the embroidery building!" Catch the monster!" The old man of the Sun family shouted angrily, waking everyone up, and ran to the embroidery building in the backyard. I saw that along the way, many people were still lying on the ground, covering their heads, as if they couldn't figure out the situation, presumably this was the demon's method of confusing people.
At this moment, the old man of the Sun family remembered the rice paper with the word "dragon" written on it given by the Kochi Mansion, and sighed in his heart, "It's still reliable!"
Everyone came to the backyard, looked up at the embroidery building, and were stunned. I saw this two-story small building, at this moment from top to bottom emitting a faint golden light, the sound of the dragon from time to time came out of it, and a huge green shadow suddenly appeared above the embroidery building. The horns are like a deer, the head is like a camel, the eyes are like a rabbit, the neck is like a snake, the belly is like a mirage, the scales are like a fish, the claws are like an eagle, the palms are like a tiger, and the ears are like a cow. The dragon shadow appeared upstairs, and with a clear sigh, the voice instantly reached the chests of everyone present, and only the heart of worship swelled. A dragon claw poked out of the green dragon's chest and leaned towards the building, silent, but unstoppable, and a word emerged in everyone's hearts at this moment: Qinglong probe claw?!
