Chapter 15: Heading to the Capital City
Qiu Feixu's idea was agreed by everyone, and Qiu Feixu said to the three people of Fuhu Temple: "I'm sorry, this method needs to trouble the three of you. ”
"It's all for the sake of the sect's family, and everything should be done. Please, girl, command. Zhen Xiu replied.
"This matter is not difficult for you, from now on, you will be responsible for reciting the sutra, reciting the mantra of rebirth repeatedly, and you can only stop until I let go of the soul of the blessing, otherwise the soul of the blessing will be in danger of disappearing. After Qiu Feixu finished speaking, the three monks sat cross-legged on the ground and began to recite the mantra of death.
Accompanied by the melodious scriptures, Qiu Fei stood with the sword seal in his hand, his eyes closed tightly, and he thought of the incantation, only to see that a puff of cyan smoke in the room was slowly gathering in one direction, forming a human figure little by little, showing his facial features, everyone recognized this person as Laifu.
Qiu Feixu said to Yin Xuesong: "This trick won't last long, what else to ask." ”
"Where is the bottle you said now?Is the talisman attached to the stone lion still there?How many of them are there, where are they now?" Yin Xuesong seized all the time to say the three most important questions.
"Oh. It turned out that the soul of this newly deceased person did not have much intelligence, so the reaction was super slow, and after a while, Laifu said faintly: "The bottle is in Cui Ye's hands, and they are now on the way back to the capital city, and they have been walking for five days." That charm was already burned by me. There are a total of thirty people counting Cui Ye, oh yes, and me, counting me is thirty-one people. ”
The three most important questions have been answered, and it is useless to keep this soul, telling Qiu Feixu that he has finished asking. With a wave of his hand, Laifu's soul disappeared, and the three monks also stood up again.
Letting go of the soul of the Blessing, everyone fell into deep thought. Xing Hao had a flash of inspiration in his heart, and opened his mouth to ask: "Since this soul has not fallen into the Yellow Spring, if the body is not rotten, there is hope to save them, right?"
"That's right, there is a formation called the Afterlife Array, which is in the same vein as the Afterlife Mantra, and it depends on everyone in the Fuhu Temple, and there is a small request below, and the support of several people. Yin Xuesong thought for a moment and said to Zhen Xiu.
"What else needs to be done?" replied Zhen Xiu.
"Let's go after the souls, and we need someone to keep their bodies from rotting, and we have to beware of someone making trouble on the way, so our manpower is really insufficient, for convenience and safety, I want to trouble you to call two people from Fuhu Temple." One is to take turns to take care of the corpse, and the other is to prevent anyone from causing trouble, so it is necessary to call two people with superior skills. ”
After Yin Xuesong said this, Zhen Xiu immediately released the contact butterfly: "After receiving the contact butterfly, it will only be two days from Bingcheng to Syracuse. What are we going to do next?"
"There is another question, I only know that there is this formation, but I don't know how long this formation can last, and I ask Master Zhenxiu to answer it. ”
Zhen Xiu understood Yin Xuesong's true intention, and it turned out that he was calling a few people to come in order to preserve the body for a longer time: "Two people to maintain the formation, two people to guard." If the two groups of people are exchanged in turn, there is no need to worry about the loss of spiritual power too quickly, and it can be stored for at least two years. ”
Yin Xuesong had a bottom in his heart: "That's easy to do, wait a minute, let's go to the City God's Yamen, tell the City God about these things, and let him help watch the dart game, don't let the lonely soul and ghost get close, and you can also avoid those unnecessary troubles." ”
Seeing that everyone had already understood what he meant, he nodded: "Since they have all understood, then without further ado, let's go." ”
Zhenqing and Zhenyun stayed in the dart bureau to take care of the corpse, and the group came to the Chenghuang Yamen and saw that the Chenghuang Ye told him these things as they were. Lord Chenghuang was also furious after hearing this, but quickly calmed down: "You want to chase their souls, but you must know one thing, the Cui family's power in the capital city is not small, and when they go back with their souls, they must hide from the adults of the Yama Palace and throw their souls into the reincarnation well." It's okay to say that if you intercept it halfway, once you enter the territory of Xudu, things will not be easy to handle. ”
"How powerful is this Cui family, and it can still do things without the Yama Palace!" Xiao Lie asked suspiciously.
"Their power is far greater than that of the scattered immortals in all directions, and even our City God Yamen can be directly skipped. There was a slight injustice in Cheng God's tone. "Moreover, the Cui family has close collusion with the prefect of the capital city, and ordinary small families never pay attention to it. As early as a few years ago, something similar happened, a sect didn't know why he had a grudge against him, he launched all kinds of relationships to destroy the family, this is not the main thing, the most important thing is that the previous prefect of the capital city wanted to investigate this matter thoroughly, and as a result, you should also guess that the end was the same as them, they all died violently overnight. When the prefecture began to investigate, I don't know what relationship it used to suppress this matter like this. ”
"In this way, Cui Sanshi is really a difficult bone to gnaw. Xiao Lie's tone was slightly sarcastic. "If we have to take care of this matter, do you have any good ideas, Lord Chenghuang?"
"I'm a small city god, how can I have such a big network as him, they even have some involvement in the underworld, and I have no other way. Even if I go to Heaven in person and tell the Jade Emperor, Heaven can't pay attention to such a trivial matter. A feeling of helplessness was written all over the face of the city god. "If a few people insist on going, I won't stop it, but it's inconvenient for our City God Yamen to come forward, so you can only solve it yourself, and I will definitely go all out to do what you ask me to do, you can rest assured." ”
When everyone heard this, they knew that Lord Chenghuang was actually quite embarrassed, not only didn't want them to take care of it, but also wanted them to teach this Cui Sanshi a lesson, and they felt a little contradictory when they spoke. also understood what he meant, so they were ready to chase Cui Sanshi immediately, for fear that something would go wrong if they were late.
Before leaving, Lord Chenghuang instructed them again, if this matter can be dealt with, it will be dealt with, and then told them that Cui Sanshi will play a big banner of Cui in the team every time he goes out, which is very recognizable. Finally, he took out a sandalwood box and told them that it contained the supreme treasure earth spirit bead, and as long as they used this earth spirit bead, they could go anywhere at will. This gives them a favorable time, saves them the pain of the journey, and allows them to maintain their best physical strength.
Everyone thanked them politely, said goodbye to the city god, and went back to the Lingyun Dart Bureau, seeing that there was nothing to arrange, and preparing to go to the capital city.
took out the earth spirit bead, everyone gathered around, closed their eyes, chanted a mantra, and urged the true qi. Suddenly, the whirring wind sounded in my ears, and soon the wind stopped, but no one dared to open their eyes.
"Hey, are we here?Why haven't we moved?What now, do you want to open your eyes?" Xu Huanxin closed her eyes tightly and said timidly to everyone.
"I don't know, I'm waiting, I don't think it's so fast. Xing Hao was also very nervous, and his voice was trembling. "No, you hear the sound of footsteps, and the sound of carriages, and the sound of talking. Hearing so many familiar voices, Xing Hao tentatively opened his eyes, and was overjoyed to see everything in front of him: "You can open your eyes, we have arrived." ”
After everyone opened their eyes, what appeared in front of them was a very tall city gate, guarded by officers and soldiers on both sides of the gate, and the crowd of people inside and outside the gate was bustling. Above the city gate, there are three big characters in the capital city.
"This is really a good treasure, thousands of miles away in the blink of an eye, even if it is a fairy. Xiao Lie was amazed by this Earth Spirit Bead.
Standing outside the city gate, everyone began to study, what to do next, if they went to Cui Mansion or found Cui Sanshi on such a rampage, they would definitely be thought by outsiders that these people were here to make trouble.
Xiao Lie put forward an idea: "Why don't we divide it into two groups, one group will find out the news in the city, see how far this Cui Sanshi's power has spread, and if necessary, you can go to the Netherworld to take a look." Pick a few more people and check Cui Sanshi's movements in the direction of Hecheng. ”
"I thought this thing would greatly reduce the trouble, but I didn't expect it to be so troublesome. Zuo Tianming muttered.
Xiao Lie patted him on the head: "As long as you talk a lot, let's call it to strike first, and find out all the things we don't know, which is very beneficial to us." ”
"I agree with Brother Xiao's opinion, we know too little information, and if we collide with Cui Sanshi so rashly, we will definitely cause a commotion. Yin Xuesong agreed.
Since the senior brothers are all in favor, it is meaningless for others to raise objections, Xiao Lie said to Yin Xuesong: "Senior Brother Yin, you have the best brain, how are we going to divide these two groups?"
"I don't dare to be, I think that those who stay in the city must be thoughtful people who will not let go of any clues. Gathering information is too important to be sloppy. Yin Xuesong thought and thought, pondered and pondered: "Qiu Feixu, Bai Zhihe, and Xiao Lie, the three of you are collecting favorable information in the city. I took Zuo Tianming, Xing Hao, Xu Huanxin, and Master Zhenxiu Town with the five of us to look for Cui Sanshi's team on this road. If anything happens to either of them, let's immediately use Liaison Butterfly to communicate. He asked Xiao Lie's opinion again: "What does Brother Xiao think?"
"Very well, you should go to a much more dangerous place than we are, and you should bring more people with you. Xiao Lie agreed.
"It's better to stay, if something really happens, four people are better than three, the so-called more people are more powerful!"
"Master Zhenxiu, your footsteps are the fastest among us, and your kung fu is also excellent, no matter what goes wrong, you can quickly give support. If there are too many people in the city, it will also arouse the suspicion of others. ”
"Okay, let's do it then. ”
"Okay, Brother Xiao's affairs in the city are left to you, and we can act. After speaking, Yin Xuesong led the four people to turn around and leave.
Seeing that they were far away, Xiao Lie and the three of them also walked into the city gate, just entered the city gate, not far ahead, saw a person in purple clothes and purple robes walking out of a restaurant, Xiao Lie only felt familiar and didn't remember who it was for a while, walked a few steps closer and looked again, immediately grabbed Qiu Feixu, and pointed to the front: "Miss Qiu, who do you see that is?"
