Chapter 151: Resurrection of the Soul
Song Yingxing's hometown is in Huya Town, Hualing County, in the east of Hengcheng County, six hundred miles apart, escorted by Taichen and Min Xiaorong, and he has never encountered danger again.
This day finally came to the border of Hualing County, Shimen Town, this town is the key mouth, although it is located in the mountains, relatively remote, but people who go to all directions almost have to pass by here, but the shops and liquor stores in the town are not open, there are few pedestrians on the small streets, and every house is closed and padlocked.
Song Yingxing felt a little strange, and he said to Taichen and Min Xiaorong: "Two Engong, this place is not very far from our house, it used to be very lively here, why has it become like this now?"
Min Xiaorong smiled: "How long has it been since Lord Song came back?"
"For more than two years, if I go home, I will inevitably pass through here, and I have not been back to my hometown since I took office in Hengcheng. ”
"That's it, more than two years is a long time, and anything can happen. ”
Taichen looked at the depressed scene and said, "Something must have happened in this town, and it's not a good thing. ”
"Well, it's better to find someone to ask about the situation!" Min Xiaorong said.
It took them a long time to find a few passers-by, who shook their heads in silence and hurried away when they heard their questioning.
They were all very embarrassed.
Just when everyone was worried, another old man happened to pass by them, so Song Yingxing was busy saluting and communicating with him in the local dialect, and after the two talked for a while, the old man left.
Song Yingxing hurriedly pulled the two aside and said, "The old man told me, let's get out of here quickly and don't spend the night in the town." ”
Min Xiaorong frowned and asked, "Why?"
Song Yingxing said: "There has been a big incident here since last year, and a pair of devils have come: black and white are stiff, making the town unpeaceful. ”
Taichen asked, "Is it the devil?" or is it a human?"
"The old man said that no one had really seen them, and those who had seen them had died under their claws, and they had gone out day and night, and many people in the town had fled, and those who passed by had already taken a detour, and this was already a hell on earth. ”
"This must be some scum doing something here, there's nothing to be afraid of, it's better to find out. Min Xiaorong said angrily.
Taichen shook his head, pulled Min Xiaorong aside, and said: "Our most important task now is to escort Lord Song home, he is not from the rivers and lakes, if something happens, the gains outweigh the losses, and these two monsters have been harmed here for a year, and when the task is completed, it will not be too late for us to come." ”
Min Xiaorong nodded, so they went on the road again, and in the evening, they came to a place called Kuoshu Village, and it seemed that they could only rest here for one night at night.
They knocked on the door of a large mansion, the owner of this house is surnamed Guo, is the richest man in the village, called Guo Yonghuai, his ancestors have passed down a lot of fields, he is a rich peasant, and he also does some small business, because of hard work and thrift, the family is getting better and better, and he has become the richest person among the more than 40 families!
Entering the compound, Taichen felt a strange atmosphere, and Min Xiaorong felt the same, quietly approached, and said softly: "There is a problem with this family, you have to be vigilant." ”
Taichen nodded, he didn't feel that there was any threat to their safety, but that the family should be in trouble.
When Guo Yonghuai learned that Song Yingxing was a local official, his eyes seemed to light up, but after a while, his head hung down again.
During dinner, Guo Laohan asked the servants to prepare a large table of good dishes, and invited everyone to eat, Guo Yonghuai personally sat with him, and Guo Laohan asked his two sons to come to meet Lord Song.
Guo Yonghuai said politely: "Lord Song is a big official, the deputy governor of the state and county, although he is the official of Hengcheng County, Linxian County, but he is a figure who has gone out of our neighboring town, and he can stay in the cold house today, which really makes our Guo family shine!"
Song Yingxing said ashamedly: "I am a poor person now, not an official, and I am light without an official!"
Everyone also laughed, two sons, the eldest son Guo Tianlong, the younger son Guo Tianhao, a young man in his twenties, and a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy.
Taichen always felt that this Guo Tianlong was a little awkward, just so out of place, and after they withdrew, Taichen was about to ask.
Song Yingxing spoke: "Brother Guo, with all due respect, your eldest son Guo Tianlong is not your biological son, right?"
As soon as the words came out, Guo Yonghuai was good at it, he hurriedly sent all his subordinates out and closed the door himself. Suddenly knelt in front of Song Yingxing, and he was already in tears.
Song Yingxing hurriedly helped him up and asked: "Brother doesn't have to salute, my official has been dismissed, and I am also a common man, if you can trust me, tell me about the situation, I and your Hualing County Governor Han Daren are classmates and friends, you can also say two or three sentences, you see that these two righteous people may be able to help you." ”
Guo Laohan nodded: "Woo woo, my son died very miserably! This person is not Guo Tianlong, there should be a conspiracy in it." ”
It turned out that a month ago, Guo Yonghuai's eldest son Guo Tianlong got married, married to Tian Guixiang, a woman from the next village, and died mysteriously on the night of the wedding. But not long after, a young man actually said that he was Guo Tianlong's resurrection of the corpse, and he really said that he was Guo Tianlong.
"Is that the young man just now?" asked Song Yingxing.
"Exactly, of course I don't believe it. He is from the next village, named Cao Yang, he died of illness that day, and their family was preparing to put him in the ground, but he suddenly came back to life, and said that his name was Guo Tianlong, and he remembered what happened to my son before, especially the voice of the voice was very like, and my wife also recognized that it was my son who came back with a corpse, and I must admit it. ”
Song Yingxing hurriedly asked, "Then is your daughter-in-law willing to admit it?"
At first she refused to recognize each other, but then she asked them a lot about their wedding night, and he answered them all before believing it to be true. Guo Laohan replied.
Taichen felt very ridiculous and said, "How can ordinary people borrow corpses to return their souls? I heard that cultivators' skills have reached the stage of recuperation, and their souls can go out of their bodies, but they can't borrow corpses to resurrect their souls, so wouldn't people die?"
Yuhan said with a smile: "I have heard of the resurrection of the corpse, it is really a strange phenomenon, is it true? The sixteen-year-old self came to the body of the nine-year-old Beigong Yuhan, and knew both his past on the earth and the experience of the nine-year-old Yuhan. If you say it to other people, it will scare everyone to death, and I am afraid that everyone will treat themselves as devils.
Taichen smiled: "You listen to me and tell you what to say." ”
Song Yingxing groaned for a while, and said to Guo Laohan: "Brother, can you let me meet your daughter-in-law?"
"Yes, yes, I'll let someone recruit her. ”
"No, can we go to the new house and have a look? By the way, take a look at the scene of your son's death, it's already night!
"It's okay, it's still early, I'll have someone go and inform them and the couple. After saying that, he called a servant to inform Tian Guixiang.
After a pillar of incense, several of them came to the new house, they had already packed up, opened the door to greet everyone, after all, Lord Song used to be a member of the government, if you know that there is another prince present, then I don't know what will happen to everyone?
When everyone entered the room, it was full of joy, red satin, red quilts, pillows, and so on. The bride and Guo Tianlong were waiting at the door.
Taichen looked at this woman, with heavy makeup and glamorous makeup, a bewitching aura all over her body, her facial features were quite delicate, her figure was enchanting, and she was not a simple woman.
The two of them hurriedly let everyone into the room.
Song Yingxing took a sip of the water they handed over and asked, "What was the situation at that time, does Guo Tianlong remember the scene at that time?"
Guo Tianlong shook his head and replied: "It's strange to say, I remember everything before and now, but I can't remember the situation on the night of the wedding." ”
Tian Guixiang took over the topic: "I know, my lord, that night, Guo Tianlong drank too much wine and returned to the room, but his head was still sober, and he asked me to make a cup of strong tea for him to relieve his hangover." We know that there are a lot of friends waiting for the cave room at the door, they are waiting to see our jokes, we deliberately only sit at the table and gossip, the night is getting deeper, people can't stay up, one after another left, leaving only his two best friends, Wang Ming and Chen Xionghua, and after a while I was too sleepy, so I went to sleep, but Guo Tianlong said to sit down, and after a long time, they left in disappointment, when Wang Ming left, in order to punish us put a big wooden pillow above the door. As a result, when Guo Tianlong pushed the door to see the situation outside, the tragedy happened, as soon as the door opened, the wooden sleeper fell, and coincidentally, Guo Tianlong was stoned to death at the door, and after Tian Guixiang got up the next morning, he found that his husband had died in front of the door. Later, the yamen intervened to investigate the matter, and found out that the wooden pillow placed by Wang Ming was the murder weapon, although Wang Ming was manslaughter, but he was still arrested by the government and sentenced to three years in prison. That's all that, alas! Fortunately, he actually borrowed the corpse and returned to the soul, otherwise my life would have been completely ruined. Woooooooo
When everyone came out of the room, Song Yingxing asked Guo Laohan: "Is that wooden sleeper still there?"
Guo Yonghuai said: "The wooden pillow has been taken away by the government as evidence, but there are still a few of the same pillows at home!"
"Bring it to me and see. Song Yingxing said excitedly.
After a while, the servant came running with a wooden sleeper, a very ordinary kind of wooden sleeper, small, and engraved with various patterns, Lord Song himself picked it up and looked at it many times, and handed it to Taichen and Min Xiaorong to watch.
When he returned to the house where they lived, Song Yingxing smiled with satisfaction, "In less than three days, we will be able to solve the mystery." He turned to look at Min Xiaorong and Taichen, "Let's stay here for another three days, how about it?"
Min Xiaorong nodded: "It's all up to Lord Song's arrangement, if you can help Guo Yonghuai, it's really a great thing." ”
Then everyone went back to their rooms to rest.
