Chapter 14: No Return

The old ghost retreated to Granny Yin's side and said, "Dead old woman, why don't you greet the guests here in advance, it's rude to me." ”

Granny Yin didn't take his words seriously. shouted to the old man: "Zhang Gongzi here is my friend, he will not harm you." Miss Xiaoqian is also a sensible person, so don't pretend to be a ghost, take a look at this big thunder for me, I summoned the soul twice and he didn't come back, see what happened over there. ”

Xiao Qian looked at Da Lei stupidly, as if she didn't see the appearance of the old man - this is the greatness of love.

After all, Da Lei is the most important, in Xiao Qian's eyes, there is only Da Lei, and no one else. If the old ghost appeared out of thin air, it wouldn't scare her to death.

It wasn't until Granny Yin spoke that Xiao Qian turned around, she looked at the old ghost with melancholy eyes, and then said to the old ghost: "Uncle, please, please, please be sure to bring Da Lei back, I don't want him to have any mistakes." I'll burn more paper money for you in the future......"

The old man sneered: "Miss Xiaoqian, I have no merit, I will try my best, I am not absolutely sure, I will use some connections over there to try to make this matter have a happy ending." After that, he nodded politely to me. Then he complained to Mother-in-law Yin and said: "Dead old woman, find me trouble all day long, I won't be at peace when I die, you wait for me to have a cigarette, and the situation of Da Lei should be known!"

With that, the old man melted into another gust of wind and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Xiao Qian sat beside Da Lei tenderly, stroking Da Lei's hand lovingly, as if in her eyes, there were only the two of them left in this world.

A cigarette time passed, and the old man did not come.

The time for the second cigarette passed, and the old man did not come.

Three cigarettes have passed, and the old man has not returned. Granny Yin walked uneasily, like an ant on a hot pot.

I was so anxious, I felt that this time was really difficult, and the damn fox fairy didn't move at all now.

I couldn't help but ask, "In the case of Da Lei, mother-in-law, where is the problem?"

Granny Yin rubbed her hands and said, "Da Lei's soul can't come back, there are probably two situations, one is that he was detained or imprisoned by the masters over there, and the other is that he doesn't want to come back. In either case, there must be a master who forcibly dismemberes my spells, ordinary ghosts, or people who are much higher than me, and even a county god like Lao Xu can't do it. ”

Granny Yin looked at me a little puzzled, and continued, "Let me tell you this, it's like a person carrying a knife to a duel with someone, the other party in the duel can defeat and kill the person with the knife, but the person fighting the duel can't do anything with the knife. ”

While we were talking, Granny Yin's old man returned.

Granny Yin's old man stood beside Granny Yin dejectedly, his eyes were fixed on Granny Yin, his mouth squirmed a few times, but he didn't speak.

Granny Yin also sensed the old man's emotions and said, "Old ghost, why did you come back at this time, what are the clues? ”

The old man touched his mouth and said, "I have followed his whereabouts as follows. At the end of the Ming Dynasty, the Chen prefect of Suzhou coveted the Murong family on the rich side, and after many conspiracies, he used the bandits to slander the Murong family. That night, Suzhou Governor Chen personally led hundreds of officers and soldiers to surround Murong's family, and then began to arrest people, and the master's domestic servants arrested a total of more than 30 people. Several large boxes of gold, silver and jewelry. ”

The old man continued: "Governor Chen has made a small plan, and he will act at night to catch them all, so as not to let anyone get away and cause extraneous branches. Who knows that people are not as good as heaven, Murong Lei went out to collect cash that night and did not return overnight, so he escaped this catastrophe. ”

The next day, the prefect checked the number of people, only to find that Murong Lei had been missed, and the prefect was shocked, afraid that the matter would be revealed, so he hurriedly sent someone to paint a portrait and arrest Murong Lei. Murong Lei was like a frightened bird, and hurriedly fled to the capital. But he had no experience and did not escape the eyes of the government, so he was chased and killed several times, and the last time he escaped to the river, hiding under an overturned boat. Fortunately, he met a girl named Ah Lian, and he came back to life, and later had an emotional entanglement with this girl, and then left Ah Lian one morning and went to the capital alone. ”

The old man's brief explanation just confirmed Xiaoqian's story.

Xiao Qian's attention also attracted the old man at this time, and she hurriedly asked, "Uncle, what's going on below?"

The old man said slowly: "Murong Lei suffered a loss, and he no longer dared to show his true face, in order to avoid pursuit, he deliberately made a big circle, and there was no danger along the way, and finally Murong Lei arrived at the boundary of Shandong, and when he entered Taishan, he disappeared, and then his contact with the outside world, as well as the news about him, were blocked." ”

"What is he doing in Tarzan?" I asked.

"I don't understand his intentions, I used all the connections over there, and I can't find his whereabouts, it seems that only by finding him can I solve the mystery of his going to Tarzan. The old man said.

After the old man finished speaking, he turned his face again, and said softly to Granny Yin: "Xiaohua, I haven't been able to complete what you explained this time, you ...... Don't blame me. ”

It turned out that Granny Yin's nickname was Xiaohua, and it could be seen that their husband and wife were very affectionate, and they could also see that the old man was an out-and-out "strict wife".

Granny Yin looked at the old man resentfully and said, "Old ghost, you say these stupid things, don't be afraid of people looking at jokes, how can I blame you, I know you did your best." ”

The old man lowered his head, like a child who had done something wrong, and did not dare to look at Granny Yin again.

"What should I do?" Granny Yin paced anxiously.

Granny Yin's frowning brows could already be wrung into the water.

I also became irritated when I gave Granny Yin a walk.

Brother Da Lei, where are you?

Granny Yin thought for a while, walked in front of me and stopped. She slapped her palm with her fist, suddenly changed her tone, and begged me: "Big brother, at this time, I have to work hard for you, can I invite you to go to the dream world for a while, to find the thunder?"

Granny Yin is also a last resort, even if she doesn't ask me, I will not hesitate to stick a knife in my ribs for the sake of my good brother Da Lei.

But I still have some concerns about going to the dream world, after all, it is too risky to travel to ancient times. In the time when I was stunned and thinking, Xiaoqian came over, pulled my shoulder, and said with a crying voice: "Brother Zhang, I beg you, you can't die without help." ”

I patted Xiaoqian's hand and comforted: "Look at what you said, you have flattened Brother Zhang, am I that kind of person? For the sake of a good brother, I will let go this time." But ......."

"But what?" said Xiao Qian, shaking my shoulder.

I want to see what the fox fairy means, if he doesn't help, I will go in vain.

This time the fox fairy finally came out and said to me in his mind: "You can find me everything, but I happened to go over there to find an old friend." ”

Xiaoqian didn't know the conversation between the fox fairy and me, so she waited for me to follow.

"But if you shake my arm any more, I won't go. I said softly.

When Granny Yin saw that I agreed, her face showed joy. Granny Yin looked at me approvingly and said, "It's all my fault, Da Lei is saved now, in fact, I also want to go to the dream world to see, but it doesn't help if I go, just imagine that person can break my spell, he must be a middle master, and I went in vain." Just adding a burden to you. ”

At this time, Granny Yin's husband also came over and said to me: "Big brother, although my skills are not good, but I can help you run errands in the dream world, inquire about the news or something, I have a lot of familiar faces in the underworld, although it is not the dream world, but they often go to the dream world, and occasionally sell old face, it is still okay." ”

I thanked me from the bottom of my heart and said, "Thank you! I will definitely need you in the dream world, and I will definitely look for you when the time comes, so don't be annoyed." By the way, what do you call my husband?"

The old man dispelled his fear of me at this time, and said to me with a grin: "My surname is Qin, and I have forgotten my name. The Ten Palaces of Yama, King Qin Guang, are in the same vein. After speaking, he took out a copper coin from his arms and handed it to me, and continued: "Big brother, you only need me in the dream world, put it in the palm of your hand, and call Lao Qin." ”

After Old Man Qin finished speaking, he glanced at everyone again. He arched his hand and said, "The old man is leaving, as long as I stay in the yang world, the underworld will break my yin life." ”

Granny Yin said softly: "Dead ghost, mother-in-law here, no one keeps you, go back quickly." ”

Granny Yin's tone is three points of reproach and seven points of love.

Old Man Qin arched his hand to me, and a gust of wind rose, and Old Man Qin disappeared.

In fact, at this time, my mind was full of questions, full of anticipation and anxiety about this trip to the dream world.

Granny Yin said: "If you go, it will be limited to three days, otherwise Da Lei's physical body will not be guaranteed, and my ability will be used to the limit, and you have to communicate with the fox fairy." ”

Before I could answer, the fox fairy reappeared in my mind.

The fox fairy said to me: "There are many dangers in this dream world, I will keep in touch with you at all times, do my best, bless you with safety, you must act at the opportunity, and you must not be reckless." ”

I said to the fox fairy with my mind: "Then the dream world depends on you!"

The fox fairy hurriedly said: "This is not good, you are in charge of everything." Your telekinesis is stronger than mine, and I am only worthy of being your deputy, not to mention, as long as you use the method of luck, your potential is more than enough to deal with the dream world. ”

I asked him, "What is the dream world, is it the underworld?"

The fox fairy said: "The dream world is not the underworld, we usually say that there are three worlds, namely, 'the desire world, the color world, and the colorless world', as for the subdivision of these three worlds, I won't say it, since ancient times, there has been a saying that "jump out of the three worlds, not in the five elements". That's what it means. ”

The fox fairy continued: "In fact, the division of the Three Realms is not so clear, at the edge of the Three Realms, there are these small spaces, and the Dream Realm is one of them, it is free in the middle of the two worlds of humans and ghosts, both intersecting and relatively independent. ”
