Chapter 45: Doom

The bhikshu kingdom is also considered a big country. There are also many villages around the castle.

Xiaojia Village outside the city.

Li Ping was originally just a young man who fled with the caravan. When passing through the country of bhikshus, he was recruited by the Xiao family, and he originally looked at a young man who was honest and well-behaved, but he didn't expect to become a parent, and his original form was revealed after he stood firm.

was idle all day long, stealing chickens and touching dogs, and even the money for the Xiao family's little lady to buy medicine when she was sick was taken away by him and lost the bet.

encountered such a scoundrel, and the little lady of the Xiao family went to the sick bed not long after. When the old man of the Xiao family got old, the white-haired man sent the black-haired man, and he was angry and died by such a thing.

Today is in full swing.

Li Ping and a few fox friends had just drunk wine, and when they saw that it was getting late and the wind and rain were getting stronger, they said goodbye and returned home.

The Xiao family has some family business, and the father and daughter left a big mansion after they left. It turned out that he also took in a few maids, but later it was Li Ping's turn to be in charge, and these people also dispersed.

Li Ping pushed open the courtyard door and entered the house, the room was black and hollow, he spat out the rainwater that seeped into his mouth, and scolded, "Damn this thief, I can't see Lao Tzu well." ”

I fumbled and took out the fire fold and lit the lamp. The wind and rain were like darkness, blowing against the windows, making a crackling sound, and the lights were swaying, reflecting Li Ping's distorted and elongated shadow.

Li Ping was a little drunk, wiped his body casually, got on the bed, hugged the warm quilt, closed his eyes, he didn't know what he thought, he had an evil smile on his face, his body suddenly squirmed twice, and his nose twitched, as if he was sniffing something.

He smacked his mouth twice, opened his eyes, looked at the dark ceiling, and said to himself, "Damn, a good mother-in-law, just soaked in the pig cage." Tsk, the white and tender skin and flesh of the body, you can squeeze out the water by pinching it, Lao Tzu just ate the marrow and knows the taste, and he hasn't had a good time yet!"

Li Ping swallowed his saliva with a grunt, closed his eyes again, reached into the quilt and pounded it, and unconsciously groaned in his mouth, "Yun Niang~"

The cold wind blew in through the crack in the window, and the oil lamp on the table flickered twice, and even if the cover was useless, it was finally extinguished.

Even with your eyes closed, you can still feel the light.

Li Ping's eyes were dark, and he listened to the sound of wind and rain intertwined outside, even if he was bold on weekdays, he couldn't help but feel furious, stopped moving, listened to the movement, and heard nothing except the sound of wind and rain.

He fumbled in the darkness and lit the lamp again, and by the light he looked, it was dark outside.

He took a sip, the back of his neck was cold, ran his hair with his hand, and went to bed again.

After such a scene, most of the wine woke up, drowsiness hit, and I fell asleep in a daze.

"Squeak~" The wooden door that had not been oiled for a long time was blown open by the wind.

"Pap, papa~"

The sound of human footsteps sounded in the dark room, but there was no human figure, only a series of wet footprints on the ground, which soon turned into a pile of water.

Li Ping didn't sleep peacefully, he rubbed his eyes when he heard the movement, sat up, a cold wind blew, his body was excited, and his spirit became trance.

He looked at the foot of the empty bed stupidly, saliva dripping down the corners of his mouth, "Yun Niang~"

The quilt flipped over and covered Li Ping's body, and after a while, a creepy chewing sound sounded in the room.

The flame of the oil lamp on the table flickered and went out.

It was dark in the room.

The wind and rain outside the window were endless.

......

Xiaojia Village.

Li Qing was dressed in Taoist clothes, standing indifferently and solemnly, and the Jingwei bird fell on his shoulder.

A group of soldiers in leather armor, with horizontal swords at their waists, spread far away, faintly encircling the entire village.

After a while, a middle-aged man in a general's uniform strode over, arched his hand at Li Qing, and said, "Dao Chief, I have already checked, except for blood stains and some mutilated human bones, there is no living person in the entire village." ”

Li Qing nodded, sniffed, and frowned.

"Dao Chief, maybe you can see what kind of monster is so ferocious? "The middle-aged man's face was gloomy, the bhikshu country had been peaceful for a long time, and such a big disaster as destroying the village had never happened before.

"Who told you it was a demon?" Li Qing felt the remaining yin qi and resentment, and replied casually.

"It's not a demon, what's that?"

"It's a ghost! Evil ghost, the remaining resentment is so thick, I'm afraid that the Tao is no less than a thousand-year-old ghost. Li Qing sighed and instructed the man, "Go to the surrounding villages and ask if there are any unusual things happening here recently." ”

The man took the order and went.

The Jingwei bird fluttered its wings and scratched its little head with the tips of its wings, "Sir, will the evil ghost stay if it harms people?"

Li Qing looked at the empty village, shook his head and said, "I don't know, if some ghosts are too obsessed, they will become earthbound spirits, and they can't get out of being trapped in that place." But there are also wandering ghosts, but they often don't stay in one place for long. ”

"But what can ordinary people know, you ask General Mu to inquire, what can you inquire?"

Li Qing didn't answer Jingwei's question, touched her little head, and asked rhetorically, "Heaven and earth are divided into three realms, there is heaven above, and there is an underworld below, and there are its own laws and regulations, but do you know why there are ghosts and things in the world that harm people?"

"Why?"

"The ghosts wandering in the world, nine times out of ten, died in vain during their lifetime, they have not reached the end of their life, or their souls are consumed by the scorching sun, and the remaining true spirits automatically return to the underworld.

Or when you encounter a ghost who will hook the soul, you will be caught and thrown into the underworld in vain, and when you survive until your life is over, you can judge the good and evil in your previous life, and drink Meng Po soup and put it into reincarnation.

There is also a situation where they are too obsessed, too resentful, their souls are condensed and not afraid of the wind, and they are lucky not to encounter a bad luck, and it has become a climate over time. At that time, even ordinary yin cha was not an opponent, and most of the people in the world were haunted by this kind of ghost.

I don't smell the stale smell of old ghosts, so it must be a new ghost who does this evil thing. There must be a reason for this calamity in Xiaojia Village. ”

"So Sir wants to know how this ghost died?"

"Hmm. I haven't achieved the original god, and I don't know how to chase the soul, so only by finding the thread can I find the whereabouts of the ghost. Li Qing said, saw the man leading an old man over, stopped teaching, poked Jingwei's little wings with his fingers, and said, "It's here." ”

The man saluted from afar, and shouted in his mouth, "Dao Chief, this is the villager of the neighboring village, I thought it would be better for you to ask in person, so I brought him over." ”

Although the old man was old, he had never experienced such a scene, and he was about to kneel down as soon as his knees were weak, and he said in a panic, "Noble, the little old man has never been involved in the affairs of his Xiaojia Village, and it has nothing to do with me!"
