Zheng Zhiyu found a way to find some old ghosts with more knowledge and knowledge in the wilderness. These ghosts can't eat incense and filial piety on weekdays. They can only go to rich people to eat and drink during the festivals. The wild ghost, maybe he has heard a lot of things.
She started directly with the ghost king. After all, from what the fake master said, Xu Jiao's identity was inseparable from the ghost king, and if something went wrong with her soul, it was most likely related to the ghost king.
But Zheng Zhiyu's way to find these wild ghosts was not very smooth.
These guys have lived for a long time, but they are no different from dead houses on weekdays. Some of them don’t even know about the change of dynasties now, and they are still immersed in the prosperity of the former dynasties. No, no useful information.
Zheng Zhiyu could only go further and further, fortunately, there was no movement from Xu Jiao's side, and it was estimated that nothing would happen in a short period of time, which made her boldly want to go further.
Just when she was looking for clues about Xu Jiao's abnormal body—
s Datong City.
A bald head was sent out of a financial building by a group of people in suits and leather shoes. Someone escorted him into a black Mercedes-Benz with an umbrella. It was not until the cool air-conditioning wind covered the bald head that he went to the seat in a good mood. As soon as he leaned in, his assistant and apprentice next to him handed him a handkerchief to wipe off the sweat from his forehead.
At the same time, the apprentice showed a flattering smile, lowered his eyebrows and asked him pleasingly: "As expected of the master, I thought this order would not be too difficult, who would have known that this place could raise a powerful thing, if it weren't for it The master came to help me, and the apprentice will be planted on this."
After hearing this, the bald head touched the ghost-like Buddha beads on his neck. Half of the beads had turned gray, and the ghost face was half real and half empty, but on the opposite side, there was a pancake on the pagoda. New beads with a little red light.
He squinted at the apprentice beside him, and replied slowly: "I can't blame you for this, people are not enough to swallow an elephant. Today's people can do anything for money..."
"Specializing in some crooked methods, it is also very common to sacrifice some ordinary people for this."
"It's just that there are guys who do these things that harm the yin and morals. Naturally, there are also people who do those so-called gossip about justice, breaking the feng shui bureau there, turning the eye from good to bad, and attacking its owner."
"This is my unexpected joy. This repressed soul has long since turned into a fierce ghost because of resentment. I was still thinking about how to repair my magic weapon. Who knows you kid It's been a big help for me."
Hearing his praise, the man sitting beside the bald head also showed joy on his face, smiled and said to him, "It is my blessing that the disciple can share the worries for the master, but there is something I don't understand."
The bald head closed his eyes and blew the air conditioner in the car, and said to him, "Speak."
"I heard Master mentioned earlier that the Buddhist pagoda of your magic weapon was reserved for the ghost king. Why did Master go out a few days ago, and when he came back, not only did the magic weapon hurt badly, but he even charged the ghost he was looking for today. The pagoda... If I remember correctly, Master has been running around for more than 20 years to find the ghost king, and now he can't close the net?"
The speaker is only in his early twenties, and he wants to find shortcuts in doing things. Some people can't understand what the monk is doing. After all, in his opinion, his master
It is equivalent to spending half a lifetime planning for the capture of the ghost king. For example, using the divination learned earlier to calculate the destined people who will be reincarnated after the ghost king is destroyed. For this reason, they do not hesitate to lower their quality of life. A single drill into those deep mountains is a lot. year.
A few days ago, the master said that he had a doom and wanted to go and see if the ghost king had come into the world—
Unexpectedly, when I came back, I was injured. Although the injury was not serious, the string of ghost-faced Buddha beads on the neck that people could not look directly at in the past turned out to be half gray, and it looked like it was about to shatter. Fortunately, the Dharma protection was successful in the end. Keep it safe.
Otherwise, these magical instruments are equivalent to half of their power.
Hearing the disciple's words, the bald head opened his eyes, he didn't know what to think, his eyes showed a bit of fierce light, after a while, he slowly said: "The ghost king came out of the underworld a hundred years ago, and he is the only one in this world who can break through. Something from the underworld."
"I don't know how it was born, but I was fortunate enough to have seen the description of that word in the only book left by my master. Fortunately, I completely inherited the method of numerology and arithmetic inference from my master, and I was lucky enough to calculate the ghost king by the time of day. My lover will appear in the world someday."
"For this reason, I painstakingly set up many games, who knows that people are not as good as heaven-"
"That day in Xujia Village, guess what I saw? That ghost king's sweetheart actually had an affair with a ghost, and I couldn't see where the ghost came from. I watched her casting behavior, and there was a hidden avenue. The meaning is, but the suffocating energy on the body is more than that of ordinary ghosts."
"I was careless and fell for her technique."
"There are two things I didn't expect about this matter. One is that the ghost king is clearly a lover in the rumors. There are rumors that he was struggling to find a lover on the eighteenth floor of hell, so he broke out of Huangquan Road in the underworld and wanted to see himself in the world. Lover, I couldn't find any trace of it later... At that time, I clearly saw that there was a bond between his sweetheart and Specter, but I didn't see the ghost king appearing."
"Secondly, I came back and calculated the fate of the ghost. Who knows that her fate seems to have been covered up intentionally. I can't see the slightest trace. I don't know the number of the ghost, nor when the ghost king will appear in the world."
Hearing this, his apprentice was secretly shocked, and at the same time, there was a bit of shame on his face.
It was he who made things too simple.
That's right, Master is someone who wants to pursue longevity, so he naturally thinks more carefully than he does when he does things. He can only see the appearance of the same thing, but Master has already taken one step, ten steps.
After hesitating for a long time, the apprentice asked, "But Master... you have waited too long. If the ghost king doesn't appear, what will you do?"
When the bald head heard his apprentice's words, a little bit of emotional grief and anger appeared in his eyes.
He was silent for a long time, and the corner of his lips picked up a strange arc:
"Good disciple, don't worry about me."
"None of the games I set up will be wasted. Just wait. Within half a month, the ghost king's wife will have to worry about her life. At that time, I don't believe that the ghost king will come out."
"If this is the case, I can be considered to have done my best, but it is God's imperfection."
"I can't wait for the next hundred years."
…
Xu Jiao didn't know that she was already in the game.
After fooling her roommates, she threw the box aside, went back to the lower bunk, sat at the iron table, and divided a piece of bright red.
big watermelon-
The flesh of the watermelon is very fresh, and the iron spoon digs down to make a crisp rustling sound. As soon as the middle mouth is put to the mouth, the sweet juice taste of the watermelon has already floated into the nose, making people enter the coolness of summer all at once. It's like the cool breeze blowing into the air conditioner.
When the sweetness is sent into the mouth, the flesh of the melon is slightly squeezed by the tongue and palate, and the sweet juice spreads out. Can't stop.
After more than ten scoops in a row, the heat of the sun who had been exposed to the sun before had subsided by half unconsciously.
Xu Jiao ate half of the watermelon, and her mood became melodious. Although she did not wait for Zheng Zhiyu to come back that night, she was in a good mood. Also swept away.
She was lying on the bed and heard the long-lost liveliness of the dormitory. Qian Ai and Zhou Qili always had to chat a few words before going to bed before giving up:
"Xiao Xu, when we came back, we saw the aunt downstairs saying that we should avoid those bushes when we go out. The school has a lot of insects and snakes this year, and some people in other departments have not paid attention and walked into the bushes when taking pictures. Bitten by a snake, is that true?"
Xu Jiao let out a light "um".
Qian Ai sighed: "Hey, this year's school is too strange, I thought the rumors about the hotel outside were just coincidences, but now it's a murder case on the same floor, and it's like the snakes and worms are dispatched together, don't you? Do you think it's weird?"
Zhou Qili was addicted to novels, and responded to her slowly: "A little bit."
She waited for Xu Jiao's reply.
Xu Jiao listened to her gossip and was quite straight to the truth. She couldn't help but admire her a bit, but she maintained her usual personality on the face: "Is there? I didn't pay much attention."
Qian Ai sighed regretfully.
"I thought you had changed, Xueba, but I didn't expect that you were still so boring... By the way, didn't you ask me about the school leaders and Building No. 18 last time?"
Xu Jiao remembered this, she asked Qian Ai on the chat software, who knew that the other party was talking about it, and then turned her attention away, and she also saw Zheng Zhiyu because she went out. The matter of snakes, put the matter of the formation of Building No. 18 and Wenli Building behind.
At this moment, since Qian Ai took the initiative to ask, she followed the trend: "Well, you know?"
Qian Ai sat up with his face in his hands in high spirits, looked at Xu Jiao from the upper bunk over there, and nodded excitedly: "You just got the point, cough, maybe I didn't tell you before. , after all, this matter is not very honorable. Since Xueba has taken the initiative to gossip now, for her rare curiosity, I have to satisfy her - but let's talk about it first, you are not allowed to talk about this matter, and you are not allowed to look at it with strange eyes. Oh me."
Zhou Qili and Xu Jiao: "?"
When the two had some doubts, Qian Ai said a little embarrassedly: "That's right, my dad and the principal were classmates in the dormitory at the time, so I also heard a little bit about the construction of this school at the dinner table... "
Zhou Qili was shocked for a second: "Wow, so the legendary thigh is by my side?"
Xu Jiao was not too surprised. Qian Ai's usual expenses were not ordinary. To have such capital and such a relationship in the family was really normal.
Say.
"I heard that when the S University was built, a special Feng Shui master was invited to see it. After all, it is a century-old school. You know, how many domestic universities did not have a Feng Shui design when they were built?"
"I heard that many aspects are normal, but some buildings will always become very old and unusable over time, and there are students in the school always because of academic pressure, emotional problems, etc. , resulting in some spiritual problems, the students of our school are all talented elites from all over the country, so their self-requirements are relatively high, and such people are easy to go to the top, so when we graduate, we always jump off the building.”
"I don't know from which year, the aura of the liberal arts building near our dormitory has been changed. I heard that the girls who jumped off the building were too resentful and polluted the magnetic field nearby. I don't know. right… "
"Anyway, the school has changed several times since then, and every time I want to invite the master to come over and rebuild the liberal arts building and the self-study building next to the college. The evil is going down."
"When our principal takes office, we happen to know an expert. The expert heard that he is a Buddhist. The school has prepared a lot of money to demolish these buildings with broken feng shui, but that The expert directly helped save a fortune, and only proposed to rebuild a dormitory in the current position of Building No. 18, and use the aura and design of this building to suppress the evil spirit of those two buildings—"
"This is the origin of Building No. 18 and some feng shui stories I know from the school."
After Qian Ai finished speaking, Zhou Qili exclaimed next to her: "I feel like I'm chasing a fantasy novel for daily life? Is this kind of feng shui true?"
Xu Jiao suddenly asked another question:
"The master you said helped design... is he bald? What does he look like?"
Qian Ai: "?"
She was very at a loss, wondering how Xu Jiao could finally ask such a strange question after listening to such a story.
After hesitating for a while, Qian Ai said hesitantly, "Isn't it? Don't half of the Buddhist believers have bald heads? Xueba, why are you asking this? Do you know this person?"
Xu Jiaoping lay on her bed, opened her eyes to look at the direction of the ceiling, and said casually, "Just be curious."
Qian Ai sighed, "As expected of a scholar, he is so tricky even from a curious point of view."
Xu Jiao: "…"
Maybe it's because she is usually taken care of by Xu Jiao in terms of grades. Qian Ai is now very happy to satisfy her curiosity, and even sent a message to her family to ask about this at night.
Xu Jiao didn't report much hope, but just fell asleep peacefully.
Now she can calmly face the strange anxious dream of looking for someone, but she doesn't know what the other person is called. After waking up, she can quickly adjust her mood.
She was ready to fall asleep and be in a strange place.
But to her surprise—
The dream that night was different from the previous days.
Xu Jiao is dreaming...
Zheng Zhiyu.
…
In the dream, Zheng Zhiyu was wearing clothes like Taoist robes. Xu Jiao followed behind her, looking down at the high steps leading to the mountain.
Fang slowly recited in front:
"...the highest good is like water, water is good for all things without arguing, and it does what everyone hates, so it is almost the Tao."
When Xu Jiao heard this, she stopped and looked up at each other in confusion. Only then did she realize that the heights of the two were not equal. Although she knew that Zheng Zhiyu was a little taller than herself, she also knew that Zheng Zhiyu was slightly taller than herself. There's not such a big difference.
just like…
He was just a three-year-old baby.
His eyes were level and he could only see Zheng Zhiyu's legs, and the light blue trouser legs that swayed along with her elegant steps.
She stopped, and the person walking in front had a vague sense of it, turned to look at her, and asked, "Why don't you follow along?"
Xu Jiao saw her appearance against the light, moved her lips, and did not know how to defend herself. She just stared at Zheng Zhiyu, thinking about how this person became a ghost after looking at the cold and dusty appearance...
Can you release your nature to be like that
Don't they all say that cultivators come out of their hearts and speak naturally? What kind of way is this going? You have to suppress your emotions and desires when you have never heard of Taoism? Ruthless
There were too many things floating in Xu Jiao's mind, and she didn't know where she was, so she didn't say a word.
Zheng Zhiyu saw her inexplicably bad mood, raised her hand and rubbed her head, Xu Jiao suddenly shook slightly—
Weird.
The other party's movements clearly landed on top of his head, how did he fall down and make his ears feel itchy
Do you have your ears on top of your head
It was hard for Xu Jiao to imagine such a strange scene, but from Zheng Zhiyu's point of view, it was this man who shook his ears at her, as if she disliked her actions.
She withdrew her hand and stopped touching Xu Jiao. She just said, "This Tao Te Ching is excellent for cultivating your mind. If you have nothing to do in your daily life, you should copy and recite it more to help you practice."
Xu Jiao nodded and looked up at her.
Zheng Zhiyu walked forward again. Xu Jiao felt that this dream meant she could control herself. When she saw Zheng Zhiyu walking and she was dressed in a Taoist uniform, she somehow remembered the ghost king, so she took a quick step. I wanted to ask something out loud, but I didn’t know what I stepped on—
next moment.
At the same time as the fall, there was an unspeakable pain in the tailbone.
It made her feel like she was about to break out in a cold sweat.
Zheng Zhiyu had eyes behind her. She had already taken a step forward, but then quickly came back to catch her, glanced behind her, and shook her head:
"Put your tail off."
Xu Jiao: "...???"
She looked back in shock and saw a large, furry tail with brownish fur.
Thanks to the common sense she possessed as a demon cultivator in the first world, now she can see it immediately just by looking at her tail... This is the kind of tail of a fox in the mountains.
How is she a fox
Could it be that she is a monster again this time
Xu Jiao was full of questions, and when Zheng Zhiyu lifted her up, she forgot the original question.
Somewhat puzzled, he made a sound: "The tail..."
Zheng Zhiyu sighed and said to her, "I know that you are very reluctant to be like this, you are obviously human, but you were taken care of by mountain spirits and almost lost your body. The demon is weak, let the fox's spirit melt into you... Now that you look like this, I don't know if you will be accepted by the underworld in a hundred years."
"Forget it, don't worry, as long as I'm here, I'll come up with a way for you one day to return your body—"
"Before this, you have a little control, don't always accidentally leak this tail, if others see you, you will also be regarded as a monster."
Xu Jiao was shocked when she heard this huge amount of information. She finally settled down in the dream and wanted to ask something. Zheng Zhiyu had already put her down and went forward without looking back.
Xu Jiao stepped on her own tail every three steps on average. The pain made her almost unable to control her expression, but Zheng Zhiyu's figure was getting farther and farther away from her. She had no choice but to stand tall. Chase forward with the tail:
"wait… "
But no matter how she ran, she couldn't catch up.
Unconsciously, this dream has become the dream of finding someone.
…
"call."
When Xu Jiao woke up, she let out a big sigh of relief and was half relieved, only to realize that there was a shady breath in front of her.
She blinked, her first reaction was that she was still dreaming, and when she caught a glimpse of the bright red clothes on Zheng Zhiyu's body, she realized, oh... this is reality.
Qian Ai and Zhou Qili were still soundly asleep, but did not wake up, Xu Jiao pulled the quilt and asked her with her eyes: Are you back so soon
Zheng Zhiyu touched her forehead habitually.
Well, it didn't burn today.
There was a bit of joy in her eyes, and she lowered her head and asked Xu Jiao, "Did you miss me?"
Xu Jiao shook her head slowly.
Zheng Zhiyu asked again, "Is the thing I gave you useful?"
Xu Jiao's shaking her head did not stop, she reacted for two seconds, then stopped abruptly, nodding her head, not shaking her head, after a while she pulled out a mocking smile, and said to Zheng Zhiyu with her lips:
"Send me something for my money?"
Zheng Zhiyu was so close that she easily understood what she was going to say, she couldn't help laughing, and deliberately misinterpreted her meaning: "Ah, isn't it easy to use? Why, have you tried it secretly behind my back? I don't believe it. , A lot of people have given anonymous praise to this shop, have you not even demolished it? Let me try it for you."
Xu Jiao; "… "
She raised her hand and pushed Zheng Zhiyu's move away silently.
Zheng Zhiyu glanced at the two roommates who were sleeping nearby, and let out two cool breaths. At that time, Xu Jiao was pulling the quilt up, but did not notice this scene. Rolling up the dismantled box by Xu Jiao's side, he drilled into her quilt.
Xu Jiao: "!"
This time, she said to Zheng Zhiyu in a warning voice, "Don't come."
Zheng Zhiyu hugged her and bit her ear: "What does it matter... They haven't woken up anyway, this one is designed with a rabbit tail, it's super cute, I think it suits you at first glance, you must be cute with a long tail. ."
Xu Jiao: "…
"
She thought of the last dream inexplicably.
What's even more inexplicable is that she thought of the first world, when she was a nine-tailed fox, what a rebellious junior sister did to her tail...
Zheng Zhiyu touched her neck with the back of her hand, and noticed that the temperature was a little unusual, so she said in surprise, "Huh? I'm just teasing you a few words, can this make you start burning again?"
Xu Jiao: "…"
She pushed Zheng Zhiyu out of her quilt, pulled the quilt, covered her face and let out a very light "um", then moved her lips insincerely and said nothing:
"Yeah, I was scared to death by you."
Zheng Zhiyu didn't know where the point of laughter was hit by her, and no matter how weird her smile was now, she covered her face with her sleeves, and she rolled her eyes with laughter.
As if seeing through Xu Jiao's lie, she laughed for a while, then Zheng Zhiyu reached out to touch her neck again, and asked in surprise, "Huh? Why isn't it burning now?"
Xu Jiao: "…"
She rolled her eyes at a certain ghost, ignored Zheng Zhiyu's boring behavior, sat up on the bed with one hand, touched the phone to check the time, but found that Qian Ai had actually sent her a message in the middle of the night last night.
Click to see-
The contents inside are:
"Dangdangdang! My dad was socializing last night, so he went to bed very late. He actually has a picture of the master! Because this master helped our family see Feng Shui! Here! Satisfy your curiosity! Xueba praises me, I Great?"
"[picture]"
Xu Jiao clicked on the photo and took a look...
A chill ran down her spine.
That was exactly what she had seen when she returned to her hometown, the bald master.
Although he is very young, his facial features and bones have not changed much at all.
Zheng Zhiyu didn't know why she paused. She leaned over and rubbed her cheek affectionately. With her voice in a seductive mode, she said to her wetly:
"The ancients said that the beginning of a day is in the morning..."
"We have to follow the old adage and make good use of the morning time—"
"Come and try the new toy I bought you?"
