The winter solstice was still immersed in the story just now, until Long Shen patted him on the shoulder before he came back to his senses.
"Then, did the two tomb owners above also become demons?"
Long Shen said: "No, their souls have been absorbed by the bottom, and they only need to deal with the bottom Chu corpse."
The Winter Solstice was puzzled: "But the King of Chu clearly hates the tomb owner for committing adultery with his concubine, why did he design such a tomb so that the tomb owner could absorb the vicious aura and have a chance to become a demon? Didn't this help him instead?"
Long Shen shook his head: "You are the thinking of modern people. The ancients paid attention to being buried in the ground for safety, leaving behind their descendants. At that time, this method of making people feel restless after death was the ultimate torture for a person."
The winter solstice sounds a chill.
When eating, it would be too out of place to talk about corpses and demons. In fact, he also wanted to talk about romantic topics, such as what type of dragon bureau do you like, and do you dislike being pursued, etc., but these topics are related to himself , Long Shen answered very little, on the contrary, he could always talk more about his work experience.
Long Shen didn't talk any further, so on the Winter Solstice he took the menu and ordered a table of dishes, specially ordered two more bottles of white wine, and poured a glass for Long Shen himself.
"Dragon Bureau, although He Yu took me to the entrance, without your guidance, I would never have made such great progress. Last time I was in the hospital, if it wasn't for the Green Master Sword, we wouldn't have been able to solve Huihui so smoothly. Yiguang's matter."
Long Shen said: "You have thanked you many times."
The winter solstice is embarrassed: "But I don't think it's enough. I'll drink this cup full, you can do whatever you want."
He lifted his head and drank a glass.
Alcohol entered his throat, and the blush quickly spread from his neck to his face. His skin was thin, and a little change in stimulation could produce a physiological response.
Long Shen also gave face very much, picked up the wine glass and drank it all at once.
Winter Solstice poured another cup.
"This cup is to thank you for your generous guidance. My foundation is very poor, but you don't dislike it at all."
He drank it again, and Long Shen was also very happy, and he worked upside down.
"And the last time I was in Yangcheng..."
Long Shen saw that his face was so red that he held down the hand he wanted to raise and drank the wine himself.
"Don't fall any more."
The winter solstice stopped obediently and introduced the dishes to him.
"I've been to this restaurant before. Their crispy pork is a must. It's fat but not greasy. It's best to eat."
In fact, Long Shen didn't have much pursuit of appetite. Seeing that the other party highly recommended it, he also took a chopstick.
"Are you still used to the training?"
Winter Solstice said with a smile: "It's good, I met a lot of new friends, Long Ju, where do you usually go to play when you don't have to work?"
After three rounds of drinking, the atmosphere came up, and there was no one else around. He unknowingly didn't use honorifics to address him, and Long Shen was not displeased.
"Not playing, just at home."
Winter Solstice Strange: "What are you doing at home?"
Long Shen: "Play games."
Solstice: "… what game?"
Long Shen: "The Great Wilderness, the one played by He Yu."
winter solstice:…
He couldn't connect the game with the man in front of him at all.
When I think of the noble and glamorous Deputy Director Long marrying someone else in the game, or using a female character to call someone's husband in the game, the winter solstice is a little bad.
He said, "I also play this game, which district are you in?"
After taking the exam on the Winter Solstice, all the candidates’ resumes were on the desks of the leaders of the Special Administrative Region, and Long Shen naturally knew that he had worked as an artist for “The Great Wilderness”: “In the He Yu district, I just go to play occasionally. "
"I'm also in that area, I'll show you!" After the absurd sense of fantasy, there was excitement.
Long Shen took out his mobile phone, opened the game, and logged in to his account.
Winter Solstice involuntarily widened his eyes.
The number one weapon list on their server turned out to be Long Shen? !
Even He Yu is just a rookie, and he has to hug the thigh of this "big guy", not to mention watching Chaosheng, Long Shen actually hides it.
He said: "So you are 'Shen Jian', disrespectful!"
Long Shen shook his head and said, "The account was stolen in the past, but now I bought this account, so I will go up occasionally in my spare time."
It is also true that with the ability and status of Long Shen, not to mention the lack of avatars, there must be things that can't be done every day. It is a rare luxury to be able to play games occasionally, but he bought the whole server directly. The most powerful number, it can be seen that there is actually a desire to win.
He found that he had unknowingly known many aspects of Long Shen, which had already subverted the indifferent and stereotyped image at the beginning.
Winter Solstice said with a smile: "My account is just for leisure, so I will ask the Dragon Bureau to take care of me. If someone bullies me in the game, I will ask you to come forward!"
Long Shen nodded.
The dishes are almost eaten, and the waiter is called to pay for the winter solstice.
"There's a park nearby, let's go for a walk and get rid of the alcohol by the way?" he suggested.
Long Shen saw that his face was flushed with blush, his eyes narrowed, as if three-point drunk, so he hummed.
Dongzhi smiled and narrowed his eyes. In fact, he looked at the taste of alcohol. It was only because of his thin skin that he easily fainted. He was not actually drunk. He couldn't help but ask, "Are you alright, do you want me to help you?"
Say yes!
Long Shen said: "No need, no matter how much I drink, I won't get drunk."
He got up and walked out, his footsteps were indeed more stable than the winter solstice.
winter solstice:…
It seems that the trick of drunken rhetoric won't work.
Hey, two bottles of wine were wasted!
The two left the restaurant and walked towards the park.
The evening wind came slowly, the summer heat gradually dissipated, and the scent of evening lotus was faintly sent.
The sky is blue, and the lotus leaves in the fields are reflected in half the lake, which is refreshing.
Winter Solstice: "Hangzhou West Lake, have you been there?"
Long Shen thought for a moment and nodded. He had been to many places in China, but it was basically for business, and it seemed that he had never stopped for the scenery.
"There is a hangzhou dish next to it, and there is fresh osmanthus lotus root powder every year. Eating lotus root powder there and smelling the fragrance of lotus root is really pleasant!" Winter Solstice squinted, as if returning to the West Lake. "Next time I'll take you to eat, by the way, I'll call Kan Chaosheng again, he'll definitely like it too!"
Long Shen also discovered that the young man beside him had a soft temperament, loved to eat, drink, and play. No matter how he looked at it, it was not suitable for him to enter the Special Administration Bureau and deal with dangerous monsters and monsters.
But he chose the most unsuitable path.
"Have you thought about doing something else?"
Long Shen said, seeing the Winter Solstice turning his head and looking at himself in confusion, he added: "If you don't enter the Special Administration Bureau."
Winter Solstice said cautiously: "Could it be that I haven't been doing well recently and may be eliminated?"
Long Shen shook his head: "Just ask."
Winter Solstice breathed a sigh of relief: "I originally came from an art background. Even if I don't enter the Special Administration Bureau, I won't starve to death. I was eliminated this year. If it's a big deal, I will take the test next year. You don't have to worry."
Long Shen was silent for a moment: "Do you feel that you are not suitable for this profession?"
Winter Solstice puzzled: "Why?"
You should enjoy life to the fullest, in the sun, by the West Lake, eat what you want, fall in love with a girl, like all ordinary people do.
But Long Shen didn't say it. The other party has his own ideas, and he doesn't need to go around.
Winter Solstice thought that the other party just thought that he was a monk halfway through and lacked ability, so he smiled and said: "You lent me your sword, don't you think I have enough potential? Speaking of danger, drinking water may choking to death, and walking on the road may also be killed. If you are killed by a car, if you have the ability to protect others, it is better than if you can only be protected by others. What's more, I like He Yu, Kan Chaosheng, Zhong Yuyi and the others. I also like you, so I will Do my best, because I like to do it."
Long Shen nodded and didn't stop on this topic: "Last time you asked me to help me pay attention to the donation channel, I asked someone to find a few, they are all reliable, I will send it back to you, you can choose it yourself."
Even if it's just talking about this kind of uninteresting topic, but being able to eat and walk with each other alone, rounded up to a date, the winter solstice expresses great satisfaction.
He smiled and agreed, and was about to say something when he heard a voice: "Dragon Bureau!"
Liu Qingbo ran over from the corridor behind him, surprised and delighted.
"You are here too!"
Long Shen: "Is something wrong?"
Liu Qingbo said: "The air here is good. I come here every evening to practice breathing. I didn't expect to meet you, but it's such a coincidence. Are you going to eat?"
He didn't live in the Special Administration Bureau, and naturally he didn't have a temporary access card to go to the rooftop.
Winter Solstice smiled: "We've already finished eating."
Liu Qingbo also laughed, but not to the Winter Solstice: "That's just right, can you give me some pointers?"
Long Shen nodded, and Liu Qingbo was overjoyed: "This way, please!"
Looking at Liu Qingbo's back at the winter solstice, he really wanted to give someone a kick on the butt.
If Liu Qingbo noticed something, he turned his head and smiled and said, "Junior Brother Dong, you're not a swordsman, so there's no need to waste time, just go and do your job!"
Winter Solstice also grinned at him: "It doesn't matter, Long Ju has just borrowed a new sword from me, I have to practice hard, just to observe and learn from Senior Brother Liu."
Liu Qingbo couldn't hold back: "Don't you have the Green Master Sword?"
Winter Solstice: "The Qingzhu sword has returned to its original owner, and the Dragon Bureau has lent me a long guard sword."
Liu Qingbo thought to himself that he had dumped the opponent's 18th Street in kendo, but he had never touched the dragon's sword. He regretted showing his hidden sword too early. Long Shen knew that he had a lot of famous swords, so naturally I won't lend him the sword again, but it's cheaper for this kid!
He would never admit that he was so jealous that his heart was overturned, and he wished to snatch the long guard sword from Dongzhi's mouth to see what was strange, but he had no choice but to smile because Long Shen was still on the side: "That's really congratulations to Junior Brother Dong, Let's have a good fight next time!"
Winter Solstice grinned: "Senior Brother Liu has been immersed in kendo since he was a child, I'm sure I can't beat you. Today you invited to fight on the rooftop, didn't I already admit defeat?"
While Long Shen was not paying attention, Liu Qingbo glared at him fiercely: Good you a villain who complained behind your back!
The winter solstice returned him a bright smile: I call it a face-to-face complaint!
Long Shen didn't notice the little movements of the two of them. He turned his back to look at the lotus leaf. After waiting for a while, he couldn't hear Liu Qingbo's movement.
Liu Qingbo smiled dryly: "Seeing that you are enjoying the scenery, I didn't dare to disturb you just now."
Long Shen said: "I can tell the difference between good and bad even by listening to the sound, and you are the one who comes out of yours."
When others say this, Liu Qingbo will definitely sneer and laugh at the other party's ignorance, but he himself came from a family of swordsmanship. His grandfather once told him that there are people who play blind chess in this world, and naturally there are also people who can listen to the sound and distinguish the sword.
Seeing what he said, Liu Qingbo had no choice but to put the "enemy" aside for the time being and concentrate on winning the favor of his future master.
Needless to say, he's still a lot of fun.
Winter Solstice knows nothing about kendo, and can't say anything about it, but laymen are watching the excitement. So far, he has seen two people make swords with his own eyes, one is Long Shen and the other is Ba Sang. Needless to say, the former is basically a connoisseur among connoisseurs. The sword in his hand is no longer a weapon, but a living creature. The highest level of sword use is beyond the reach of ordinary people. Ba Sang used a sword instead of a sword, and danced splendidly, but in the end it lost a bit of the charm of swordsmanship.
Compared with these two people, Liu Qingbo has another style.
Picking, stabbing, sweeping, slashing, and flirting, his swordsmanship combines all the skills of swordsmanship, but there is no craftsmanship, but it looks light and agile. Only the rustling sound of the sword's edge sweeping through the wind can make people feel it. To Sisi murderous.
The Winter Solstice was keenly aware that a layer of white fog was formed around Liu Qingbo along with the sword body.
Is this the sword qi
After finishing the set, Liu Qingbo was sweating profusely, but he did not hide his color. He smiled and was about to ask Long Shen to comment, but he found that there was a group of aunts and uncles around him, all of them looking at him with great interest. , Seeing him stand still with his sword drawn, they all clapped and clapped.
Liu Qingbo's face darkened.
Another aunt stepped forward and said, "Young man, you're doing a good job. Next month, there will be a Mid-Autumn Festival in our community. We will dance in the square. How about you come and dance in front of us?"
Winter Solstice couldn't help laughing.
Liu Qingbo's face turned even darker: "Don't go!"
The aunt didn't give up: "The TV station will come to interview, and then I will ask them to give you a close-up shot. You stand in the front, very showy!"
Liu Qingbo's expression was almost distorted: "I, no, yes!"
Seeing that he didn't want to dance the sword again, the uncles and aunts had to disperse in twos and threes. The Winter Solstice finally couldn't help it.
Liu Qingbo tried to ignore him, looked at Long Shen, and said expectantly, "Long Ju, what do you think?"
Long Shen didn't smile, he nodded and said, "You have just formed your sword qi, and if you cross this threshold, you can already be called a master."
Liu Qingbo was overjoyed, his father said the same, and he was very happy at the time, he dragged him to worship his ancestors, saying that the Liu family finally had a genius.
But after seeing Long Shen's use of the sword, Liu Qingbo's joy is actually more of a dedication to apprenticeship.
Long Shen said: "Then it depends on personal understanding. I have nothing to point you."
He was dumbfounded. He didn't expect that he was doing too well, but it became a hindrance.
Winter Solstice wants to laugh again.
Liu Qingbo ignored him and hurriedly said: "Long Ju, you must not be humble, my father said that your swordsmanship is the best in the world, if you can get your guidance, it will be better than my own three years of hard training! "
Long Shen frowned slightly: "I'm not lying. Your family tradition is enough for you to learn the best swordsmanship. In fact, it's almost the same if you have me or not. If you have to say there are deficiencies, it is the experience and the heart."
Liu Qingbo hit the snake and followed the stick: "You're right, I just don't have enough experience, and I still need to be trained by a strict teacher. My father often said that I was too unruly, too arrogant, and not humble enough. If I could have a master by my side If you give me some advice from time to time, I won't go down the wrong path."
This year, I still have to be self-deprecating when I apprentice, and the winter solstice is an eye-opener.
He smiled and said, "Senior Brother Liu is too modest. As the saying goes, only capable people are proud of their capital. This just shows that you are already very powerful!"
It's so powerful, where do you need a teacher to teach you, just play it yourself.
Liu Qingbo gestured with his eyes: Shut up for me.
The winter solstice returns with a harmless smile to humans and animals: I will not.
Long Shen didn't say anything, just said: "It's getting late, go back."
Liu Qingbo hurriedly smiled and said, "Let me take you back."
The winter solstice said: "Longju came by."
Liu Qingbo: "That's great, trouble the Dragon Bureau to take me for a ride!"
Winter Solstice: ... Do you still want shame
Long Shen did not object, and Liu Qingbo returned to the Winter Solstice with a proud look.
It was the first time he had a "date" alone, and he died when a "light bulb" was inserted in the middle, but the winter solstice was not depressed. He happily hugged the Changshou sword and went back, took a shower, sat cross-legged on the sofa, and looked at the sword carefully. .
The hilt of the sword seems to be shark skin, or it was wrapped up later. It has turned white over the years, but it is smooth and feels good to the touch.
If you compare the Green Master Sword with it, the Green Master Sword is lighter and more slender, and this Long Shou Sword is just the right three-foot long sword. It should not be difficult to insist on raising your wrist to write.
But the most different thing about this sword is that the body of the sword is dark, and it feels a little frosted to the touch. I don't know what material it is made of. Two seal characters are engraved on the body of the sword an inch away from the hilt. He looked at it carefully. It took a while to recognize that this was the seal script of "Changshou".
The fingernail flicked on the sword, and there was a loud humming sound. He had heard the music of the chime bell before, but now the sound of playing the sword had the heaviness of a chime bell.
Keep your heart right and keep your sincerity in mind. This is what the name of this sword should mean, right
After watching the winter solstice for a while, I solemnly hang it on the wall.
A few days later, Long Shen's courses came to an end and were replaced by elective courses.
Please choose God or go to the grave.
Please God is taught by Zhong Yuyi. He specifically stated that this course requires people with yin characters to go to the grave, and a person named Ding Lan will bring him to the grave. It is said that he is the deputy leader of the third group. The bureau is also an experienced person.
The location of the tomb is in another province. It is said that a new tomb has just been excavated for rescue. Something strange happened. The archaeological team reported it to the top, and the matter was transferred to the Special Administration Bureau. The meaning of Deputy Director Song Zhicun was that it happened to let these rookies. Let's go out and practice, anyway, with Ding Lan leading the team, there won't be any big problems.
Winter Solstice is very curious about this course, but his character is yin, and he is also very suitable for Zhong Yuyi's class. Besides, he saw Zhong Yuyi invite Huanhou Zhangfei in Longshen's office that day, and he was also very interested. In the end, he and Gu Meiren, Chi Banxia, Liu Si and the others chose to invite God.
And Liu Qingbo, Zhang Song, Li Ying, Ba Sang and others followed Ding Lan to other provinces unsurprisingly.
The place of asking God is in a farmhouse on the outskirts of Beijing, near the Ming Tombs.
Although the top floor of the Special Administration Bureau is quiet and undisturbed, because there is a space expanded by magic, and there are enchantments around, it is difficult for spirits to enter, and it is not a suitable place to invite God, so the classroom was temporarily moved here.
It is said that the farmhouse was opened by a family member of an employee of the Special Administration Bureau. The boss specially cleared the farm for a week and gave the employees a leave to teach them here, lest they ask for something and scare innocent passers-by.
The yard of the farmhouse is big enough, and the surrounding area is full of pear trees. It will become a scenic spot in the flowering season. It is said that it is quite popular, but it is not the flowering season. It doesn't feel hot either.
Zhong Yuyi still had that sleepwalking look on his face, and the request made was even more stunned.
"This course lasts for half a month. On the first day of today, what you have to do is to search the Internet for the historical celebrities you are interested in, and then memorize their information. Even if you can't memorize them all, you must remember their information. Years of birth and death, birthplace and font name, and life events."
Everyone vaguely guessed that this strange request might be related to the next day's class.
Chi Banxia raised her hand: "Excuse me, teacher, is this related to inviting spirits?"
Zhong Yuyi said slowly: "Yes, tomorrow, I will teach you to invite Yinshen. This technique is a bit difficult. Only by memorizing the information can you be sincere and spiritual. After inviting Yinshen, it is also beneficial to communicate."
His speech rate was about twice as slow as that of ordinary people, and it sounded a little weird. Everyone else showed uncomfortable expressions. Only the winter solstice was used to it. One day, Zhong Yuyi would feel strange when he spoke at a normal speed.
Ouyang Yin also asked: "But what if the yin god we want to invite has already disappeared?"
Zhong Yuyi: "If you can't invite Yin Shen, there are generally two situations. One is that you are not capable, and the other is that the other party's spiritual energy is too weak, or, like you, the soul has been dissipated. This can only be known through practice. ."
Everyone probably understood what he meant. At first, they thought that this course would be quite boring, at least it would not be as interesting as Li Ying and the others going to the grave, but now it sounds like tomorrow's course is still very exciting.
Winter Solstice raised his hand: "Mr. Zhong, I have a question."
In front of everyone, he was very respectful, and he didn't call Lao Zhong, but followed him obediently calling Mr. Zhong.
Zhong Yuyi: "Speak."
The style is very full.
Winter Solstice smiled secretly and asked seriously: "If you ask God, can you only invite people from your own country? Can you invite foreign people? If you invite the late US president, do we still have to communicate in English?"
Everyone couldn't help laughing, but also wanted to know the answer.
