Chapter 1: Wedge, what a headless ghost!
There are three realms in the world: gods, demons, and humans, and the three realms are divided into six realms: gods, ghosts, demons, demons, humans, and animals. All living beings are constantly changing their forms, transforming reincarnation in the six realms, but this is not a constant cycle, when a certain path suddenly has a "famine" or "eats" too much, rippling, then the balance will be broken, and there will be a situation of prosperity and decline, and there will be a situation of prosperity and decline.
At the end of the Sui Dynasty and the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, the world was in turmoil, and all beings in the Three Realms participated in the killing battle, and how many mortal bodies were destroyed, all of them poured into the ghost path, making the underworld full of ghosts. How can the judge and the ghost officials manage it, for a while, the ghosts are running around, the three realms are all there, especially the most serious in the world, even the Tang Emperor Li Shimin was disturbed by the evil ghosts and couldn't live in peace, so he had to issue an order and offer a reward!
As soon as the holy decree came out, the Taoist priests and monks who were good at subduing demons and subduing demons were on fire, for the safety of the saints...... For the sake of the shy bag ~ no matter what their own ability is, they have gone out of the mountain and used their meager strength, of course, some of the strength is really "meager", and they can't beat each other, so they can only contribute their mortal bodies......
In response to the emperor's call, the six departments of the imperial court immediately cooperated to set up a special department-anti-ghost house, and set up offices all over the country.
The government and the people are united, after years of hard work, the ghosts of the troubled times have really been suppressed, either dormant and hidden, or fleeing and wandering, and scattered and scattered cannot become any climate.
In the twenty-third year of Zhenguan, Li Shimin died, the whole country mourned, and the yin qi was flourishing, and the evil ghosts and ghosts that fed on it suddenly became active......
At midnight that day, Chang'an City was surprisingly quiet, due to the new funeral of the Tang Emperor, the bright and prosperous areas of the past have disappeared from the splendour, leaving only the lanterns along the street for lighting. Teams of patrol officers quietly passed by the streets from time to time, guarding the peace of the imperial capital at night.
"Brother, why didn't you even bark tonight?" Seven or eight officials of the Ghost Hunting Academy, who had just changed shifts, chatted on the way back.
"It's not good that there's nothing going on in the middle of the night, how much noise do you want to make and listen to the dog barking?"
"Hey, look at what my brother said, I'll just ask~"
"The emperor just left, and the masters of Zhongnan Mountain are all guarding the spirits here, and even the black and white impermanence is far away, what are you worried about~"
"Mmmm, my little brother is talkative, I have a bottle of good wine, let's go, let's drink a few cups and then sleep~"
As he was talking, a person suddenly stumbled out of the street corner in the distance, and when he saw them, he hurriedly ran over, pulling the broken lantern, and stammered with a pale face: "Official...... There is a ...... There are ghosts!"
When the officials saw that this man was a dozen petty officials, they hurriedly asked, "Where are the ghosts?"
The little official pointed to the corner of the street breathlessly and said, "Yuwen's family...... It's all dead!"
Everyone was startled, and they drew their swords one after another, and the official at the head said in a low voice: "Be quiet! Don't panic! Go over and take a look!"
The Yuwen family that the little official said is the mansion of the former dynasty general Yuwen Chengdu, because his uncle Yuwen Shi descended to the Tang Dynasty early, and was deeply valued by Li Shimin, so he left a bloodline to live here, but at this time the door of the house was open, and the officials just arrived at the door and smelled a strong smell of blood.
By the dim light, everyone rushed into the courtyard, and saw that the ground was full of dead bodies, all of which were in the tragic state of separation. I saw a person kneeling in front of a dead corpse, pressing the chest of the dead corpse with one hand, grabbing the head with the other hand, slowly dragging it, with a muffled sound, the dead corpse's head was dragged off alive!
When the man stood up with his head on his shoulder, the officials all gasped, this man had no head!
This man is a burly figure, naked, only a piece of animal skin covers his private parts, I saw him slowly buckle the human head on his bare neck, twist it a few times, and with a click, the human head is actually installed! Open his eyes, shake his neck, and grin: "No, it's not suitable." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, the man saw the officials who came in, tightened his nose at them, sniffed them, and said, "The stinky skin is useless." ”
The official at the head couldn't hold back for a long time, and shouted in a low voice: "Where did the headless ghost come from, dare to make trouble at the feet of the Son of Heaven!"
When two more officials saw it, they quickly took out the Dao talisman in their arms, silently recited the mantra in their mouths, flew forward, pressed the Dao talisman on the person, and the Dao curse seal lit up on the talisman.
Most of the people in the ghost hunting courtyard are famous Taoist priests in the rivers and lakes, especially in the capital courtyard, and they have become famous masters, as soon as the Taoist talisman is close, the others have already stabbed with swords, and several swords pierced the man's chest at the same time.
The official at the head pulled out a copper coin mahogany sword from behind his back, pinched the sword trick and turned around, and with a sword, he cut off the man's head, and his head fell to the ground, rolling to the side with a grunt.
At first, the headless ghost trembled slightly, but after a while, it stood stiff and motionless.
The head official put away the peachwood sword, frowned and said: "The ghost sword that took me is a bit weird, take it back, and ask Xu Ye to see what it is." ”
As soon as the words fell, I saw that the headless ghost suddenly stretched out his arms, clenched his fists, and turned his body suddenly, and before the officials who stabbed him could make a sound, their heads were smashed by a hammer, and the brains and bones collapsed on the official's face!
The headless ghost seemed to have eyes, and his fists were slammed again, and the two officials who used the talisman didn't have time to say a word, and their heads were knocked far away.
The official secretly screamed badly, and just as he was about to draw his sword, the headless ghost had already arrived in front of him and slapped a palm on his chest.
The official felt a tightness in his chest, and before the peachwood sword could be pulled out, the headless ghost had already pressed his shoulder with one hand, grabbed his head with the other, and pulled it upwards, and with a "bang", his head and the crippled body were completely separated......
The headless ghost raised the official's head, buckled it to his neck as usual, twisted it a few times, and the two eyes of the head suddenly opened, and he turned around twice in the eye sockets, as if the official was alive again, opened his mouth, exhaled and said: "It's all said no......" The head tilted, and a stream of black blood came out of the neck.
At this moment, I only heard someone on the roof say: "What a headless ghost, arrogant enough!"
The headless ghost tilted his head and looked up, only to see a person standing on the wall, about forty years old, dressed as a scholar.
The corners of the headless ghost's mouth lifted up unnaturally, and he smiled: "Your head can, you can use it for a while." With that, he leaped up to the scholar, pressed one hand on his shoulder, and grabbed him on the head with the other.
The scholar was stunned for a moment, then twisted his body, and suddenly disappeared in front of the headless ghost, and when he saw him again, he was already standing on the ground in the courtyard.
The headless ghost's inflexible eyes suddenly glowed with joy, and he jumped down and said, "Okay, your head is going to be decided." ”
The scholar's gaze sharpened and stared at the headless ghost and said, "Evil ghost, you can't leave it!" With that, he raised his palms crossed, and with a flick, several Gang Qi flying knives shot out in an instant.
The headless ghost saw the flying knife coming, and dodged sideways, his arm was still cut by a flying knife, and a trace of dirty blood flowed out, but he did not show anger, but was overjoyed, and swung a fist and slammed it at the scholar.
As soon as the punch arrived in front of him, the scholar's figure turned leisurely and avoided the side, but his eyebrows were tightly locked, and a trace of sweat oozed from his forehead.
The headless ghost didn't care about his wonderful dodge technique, and waved his fists, faster and faster, but the scholar's footwork gradually slowed down, and finally he almost fell.
The headless ghost saw it, stretched out his big palm and grabbed it quickly on the scholar's head, but with a muffled bang, he was shocked and flew out, took more than a dozen steps back, and looked at it, there was one more person in front of the scholar.
This person is a monk, with a resolute face, thick eyebrows and black beard, a string of huge Buddhist beads hanging from his oblique shoulders, and by the light, the hard muscles of his body exude a bronze light.
The headless ghost was slightly less happy, and was just about to step forward, when there was a sudden sound of wind behind him, and he hurriedly dodged it, but his back was still pierced by something, and he felt a faint pain, and then he looked at a woman standing on the place where he was staying, with a green face, holding a baby in his arms and looking at him coldly.
At this time, a voice came from the wall: "Lao Jiu, what are you delaying here?"
The headless ghost tilted his head and looked up, only to see an elderly scholar with a handsome face, shaking a paper fan in his hand, standing tall on the wall, and three people standing beside him, all watching him.
The old scholar said slowly: "Headless green body, immortal body...... And this devastating dry air...... It seems to be a powerful ghost who has been reborn in Xingtian. ”
As soon as the headless ghost saw the old scholar on the wall reveal his true body, his face was suddenly depleted, his head tilted, and he cracked from his neck, leaving only a trace of flesh and skin, and asked weakly, "Who are you?"
The old scholar folded the paper fan in his hand and patted it lightly on his hand: "Kunlun, Valley of the Ten Kings." ”
The headless ghost's head drooped on his chest snorted: "This head can't be beaten, it's gone!"
With that, he dragged the severed head off and slammed it to the ground, and suddenly all the heads in the courtyard flew in, swirling around the headless ghost, surrounding him in the middle, and when the heads crackled to the ground, only a trace of black smoke was left in place.
The old scholar looked at the baby in the arms of the green-faced woman and asked, "Tenth sister, is it not wrong to hold the doll?"
"When I first saw him, there was still a significant immortal aura on his body, and he couldn't be wrong. ”
"Lao Jiu, are you okay?"
"This ghost is too evil, the ghost energy on his body just now made me feel like my whole body was wilting, and now it is much better. ”
"Then let's go, the eldest brother is still waiting outside the city. ”
......
Not long after, outside the city of Chang'an, a sturdy monk jumped over the wall, and a very beautiful nun came from inside the wall, and said in a coquettish voice: "You jackal, why did you come~"
The great monk laughed and said: "I just watched a good show in the city, and the Yuwen family was ruined! Don't talk about this, come to Brother Xue's arms~"
