"The Hungry Ghost Festival is coming. On this day, many ghosts will go back to visit their relatives. The Fengdu barrier will become inaccessible at the moment the sun sets, and will only be inaccessible before the sun rises. In the middle of the year, when Fengdu's enchantment is weakest, it is also the most prone to accidents." Cui Jue looked at Ri You, "If Jiang Torian wants to do something, this is the most suitable day, what do you think?"
Ri You nodded: "The Ghost Festival is the busiest time in Hades every year. To prevent ghosts from taking the opportunity to make trouble, the Red King will probably attack at this time."
"Similarly, in order to ensure order, many errands will be sent out, and the guards of the Yin-Yang Monument will be greatly reduced. If Fan Wuxi wants to sneak into the underworld, he will probably choose this day." Cui Jue looked a little dignified, " Something will happen that day, but if we make good use of it, we will be able to wipe out the two of them."
Xie Bian said worriedly: "They were all underworld generals once, and they are well aware of this. I don't know what unexpected things they will do."
"They don't dare to force it." Cui Jue said, "As long as you are in the underworld, you will be guaranteed safety. Bian, no matter what happens, you are not allowed to leave the underworld on the day of the Ghost Festival, understand?"
"Okay, Donghuang Bell..."
"I will ask King Qin Guang to guard it." Cui Jue said coldly, "On the day of the Hungry Ghost Festival, we must gather the power of the underworld general to trap both of them in the Netherworld and cannot leave."
Riyou cupped his hands and said, "It's all at the command of the governor."
After Riyou left, Xie Bian couldn't help looking at his back for a while: "Mr. Cui, Riyou and Yeyou made great achievements in Chidi City back then. You said you would beg the emperor to let them go free, but when will the emperor let you go?" will go out."
"No one knows. The last time the emperor left the customs, it was because he was alarmed by the demon. The two of them were punished by the emperor himself, and they should be pardoned by the emperor. But three years ago in Chidi City, I promised them that they would Plead for them, after this crisis is resolved, I will advocate on my own, let them go to reincarnation, even if the emperor blames me, I will admit it."
Today's Xie Bian can hardly show a sincere smile. When he heard this sentence, he couldn't help showing his face: "Mr. Cuifu understands the righteousness. Even if there are all kinds of mistakes in the day tour and night tour, he has devoted himself to the underworld for five hundred years. There is no shortage of merit and hard work, and the sins have been redeemed, so let them have a chance to stay together."
Cui Jue sighed: "Yes, it's time to let them go."
The husband and wife of the day tour and night tour are deeply affectionate, which makes Xie Bi'an feel envious. Even if they can only look at each other for a short time in a day, and they can only talk through letters when they are by their side, but they are always with each other and will never leave. In order to be able to regain freedom and continue the unfinished fate of the previous life, he has worked diligently for the Hades for five hundred years. What kind of affection is this. And some people, even if they get along day and night, they are alienated, share the same bed with different dreams, and what's more, they deceive, suspect, and hurt each other.
A pair of charming and cold fox eyes appeared in front of Xie Bian's eyes, and bitterness arose in his heart.
After Cui Jue finished his deployment, Xie Bian informed him and returned to Fengdu City. He wanted to wait for news from Lan Chuihan in Lanyuan. What did you do before.
Cui Jue doesn't allow him to leave Fengdu now, but it's still very safe in the city, there are patrolling errands everywhere, Fengdu City is the only place in the mainland of Kyushu where humans and ghosts can coexist.
The closer the Ghost Festival is, the more restless Xie Bian's heart becomes. Apart from practicing, he spends his time tending flowers and plants in the orchid garden.
On this day, he finally received the letter from Lan Chuihan from Shushan. As they expected, Song Chungui became the biggest suspect in killing Wu Sihai. With Wu Sihai's cultivation level, few members of the Wuliang faction could put him to death, and Song Chungui had always had a rift with him. During the three years of assisting the Wuliang faction's maintenance, there were constant conflicts, big and small. Now Li Buyu is getting weaker and weaker, but he has not appointed a successor for the head. If Li Buyu dies suddenly, the head of the family will be inherited by the elder brother. Song Chungui is eager to seize power and murder Wu Sihai. Sufficiently, the key is that he really has this ability.
However, Song Chungui's character has been well-known since he started, and no direct evidence has been found, so it is impossible to convict him for a while, and Wu Sihai's being exhumed, it can't help but remind people of Meng Kefei, who also died in an accident, but has never caught the murderer. It is very similar to what the same demon cultivator who stole the alchemy did, and there is still a reincarnated Fan Wuzhen in the world, so many people speculate that the murderer of these two murders is Fan Wuzhen.
Xie Bian wrote back to Lan Chuihan, clarifying Cui Jue's plan. On the day of the Hungry Ghost Festival, the help of the Immortal League was bound to be needed. Therefore, at this time, Li Buyu had to know what was more important than to question Song Chungui. He wrote a letter to Li Buyu in his own hand, asking Li Buyu to hand over Lei Zubao to Song Chungui, and Fengdu would help them "catch ghosts" on the day of the Ghost Festival.
He knew that it was impossible for Li Buyu to agree to hand over Lei Zubao's imperial edict, but no one from the Wuliang Sect, from the elders to the disciples, was more capable of controlling this treasure than Song Chungui. If this battle is defeated, he will tell Fan Wuzhen and the whole truth. With the map of the mountains and rivers and the country in his hand, the hatred and anger of the demon king are enough to wipe out Mount Shu.
After finishing writing this letter, Xie Bian drafted another draft and sent it to a person far away in Kunlun Chidi City—Hua Xiangrong. He will ask Yeyou to deliver this letter for him, but he still does not dare to guarantee absolute safety, so the letter did not disclose important content, but based on his understanding of Hua Xiangrong, it is possible that Qi Mengsheng and Jiang Qulian formed an alliance. Finally, the flames of vengeance are burning her all the time, and she will definitely come to see herself.
After doing all this, the feeling of emptiness in Jie Bian's heart became stronger. He returned to the orchid garden, squatted halfway by the flowerbed, and his eyes fell on his dangling lotus.
Lan Chuihan thought that Dangshanhe was his grandfather's favorite thing. In fact, Zhongming was like most boys when he was a child. He had no interest in flowers and plants. Later, he found out that Dangshanhe was his heirloom to Zhongming. things. But even Zhong Ming would not know why this orchid became his only orchid, and the reason why it survived was because his little Jiu secretly hid it on the day his mother destroyed the orchid garden. this strain. The saddest thing is that Xiao Jiu doesn't remember either.
Only he remembers, and only he understands, when Xiao Jiu secretly hid this dangshan lotus, how pure and sincere she was to him.
Although he threatened Li Buyu that he would tell Fan Wuye the whole truth, time has passed and all tragedies are irreversible. It makes no difference whether he says it or not. Do you believe it, even if you believe it, can it change anything
But both Huang Daozi and Zhong Kui told him that he was reincarnated precisely to change something...
A few days later, Xie Bian received a letter from Lan Chuihan, saying that Li Buyu would never agree to give Lei Zubao the imperial edict to Song Chungui, but on the day of the Ghost Festival, he would bring Song Chungui to Fengdu to defend against the enemy together. .
Xie Bian recalled the last time he saw Li Buyu, with his dying old look, maybe it was fake to defend against the enemy together, and it was true to take advantage of the chaos to get rid of Song Chungui, but once he got to the territory of Fengdu, he would not let him succeed easily.
And in a few days, the annual Ghost Festival is coming. Fengdu, where humans and ghosts have lived in harmony for a hundred years, is about to usher in an immeasurable storm.
