Chapter 19
There were illusory shadows floating in the room, Chu Ji was located in the misty, obviously just standing there with a calm face, he had the aura to make people surrender.
"What happened in Chen's mansion recently, I want you to tell me one by one." Chu Ji crushed the incense ash on the wooden side of the chair with a clear voice.
The five ghosts were floating in the air, one after another slowly telling what they had seen and heard in the Chen Mansion in January, which was not much different from what Mr. Chen said.
But Chu Ji didn't hear any information about the haunting ghost that he wanted, so he couldn't help but sternly said, "Do you know where the ghost is staying in Chen's mansion and harming people in the world?"
The ghosts look at me, I look at you, they are more wandering, but they say in unison that they don't know.
Chu Ji would not believe that these ghosts all died in the Chen Mansion with grievances. The grievances have not been resolved, and they can only move around in the Chen Mansion. It is impossible for them not to know anything in the past month.
Then he pointed the incense ash at one of the ghosts, the incense ash brought his yang energy, and once he touched the ghost, the ghost would corrode the pain, Chu Ji's eyes were sharp, "If you don't tell the truth, don't blame me for being rude."
Seeing Xiang Hui babbling and backing away, the ghosts still refused to let go, Chu Ji frowned slightly, why these ghosts would rather suffer from the torture of Yang Qi than tell themselves the news of the ghosts.
Chu Ji was full of doubts in his heart, but he smiled coldly, walked around the chair and took two steps forward, as if he was about to sprinkle incense ash on a ghost, his face was a little playful and teasing, like when he was in trouble in Cangyi Mountain The appearance of the little devil.
The ghost was frightened by him, and lay on the ground covering his face, with a shrill voice, "Master Dao, that ghost has been ordered by the ghost king, and we, the little souls, must not fight against him, otherwise our souls will be scattered. go."
Ghost King, Jiang Yuxiu?Chu Ji didn't expect such a big person to be involved all of a sudden, his expression suddenly became very complicated, and he didn't know how to ask him for a while.
After a pause for a while, he raised his voice and sneered, "Do you think you can fool the test by moving out the ghost king?"
Another little ghost said desolately, "I dare not lie to the Taoist priest, that ghost has obtained a spell, and we cannot detect its whereabouts, so it is really difficult to help the Taoist priest."
Seeing the other ghosts agreeing, Chu Ji's face became very heavy. He thought it was just a ghost revenge, but he didn't know that the ghost king Jiang Yuxiu would be involved.
Thinking of the rumor about Jiang Yuxiu, Chu Ji suddenly felt a heavy pressure. When he was in Cangyi, he heard Ruzi talk about things in other worlds. Change, bloodthirsty.
Now he even let the ghosts below play tricks in the human world, but he never thought that he also came to the human world.
Seeing that the ghosts did not seem to be lying, Chu Ji slowly withdrew his hands covered with incense ash. At this time, the incense stuck in the gap of the chair was also burned out, and the incense was gone. In an instant, five ghosts floated through the doors and windows again. , disappeared into the house.
Chu Ji stood there solemnly, if the ghost really got the ghost king's spell, not to mention them, it would not be easy for Chu Ji to catch the ghost.
It is rumored that the magic power of the person who got the ghost king's spell greatly increased, so many ghosts wandering around the world willingly dedicated themselves to the ghost king in exchange for the spell. Once their wishes are fulfilled, their souls will be gone.
Why would the ghost even make such a big sacrifice to make trouble in the Chen residence? Xiao Huadan's soul is gone, so who else has grudges against the Chen residence?
Jun Fangbai has been standing silently by the side, the news he inquired from Sifang little demon last night is not inconsistent with what the ghost said today, the ghost king Jiang Yuxiu really came to the human world, and he should be in Wudu at this time , Why he came is still unclear.
I have heard a little bit that since Jiang Yuxiu was defeated in the battle, her skills have not been as good as before. Usually, she needs to absorb resentful souls to improve her skills, and the ghosts that accumulate resentment are the most conducive to cultivation. Before he died, he had deep resentment, and even sacrificed his own soul for revenge.
When Chu Ji turned his head, he saw that Jun Tangbai was also lost in thought, and he couldn't help but regret letting him hear these words. He is just an ordinary person, and he is timid by nature. When he first heard the ghost talk, he might be frightened.
Although a little awkward, Chu Ji thought about it and went to Jun Fangbai's side, and comforted him, "You don't have to be afraid, I won't let you have an accident."
Jun Fangbai was taken aback for a moment, and looked at Chu Ji in surprise. After a while, he showed an extremely bright smile, "Master Daoist, this is the first time someone has said such things to me."
For some reason, Jun Fangbai smiled heartlessly, but in Chu Ji's eyes, he felt a little pity for no reason, he couldn't help shaking his head slightly to get rid of the messy thoughts in his mind, and blurted out, "I am a Taoist The people of the world naturally want to put the world's common people first."
Naturally, it's fine to bluff others with these words. Chu Ji's heart is like a mirror. He has never had such a high level of consciousness since he was a child.
I don't know if Jun Mian believed it in vain, but he still smiled, "I understand."
Chu Ji didn't know what he understood, but he seemed to have found a step for himself, nodded very steadily, and coughed lightly to cover up his embarrassment.
Jun Fangbai laughed even deeper, even his pupils were bent, falling into Chu Ji's eyes, he couldn't help but think of a crescent moon in the sky, bright and translucent, as if it wanted to penetrate everything and reach his eyes.
Just in time to interrupt his wild thoughts, Chu Ji took back the burnt cigarette, and took Jun Fangbai out of the courtyard, and inside the house, except for the ashes scattered on the ground, there was no difference from before.
Knowing that the ghosts and ghosts in Chen's house may be related to the ghost king, the matter became difficult. Chu Ji was just a fledgling, but the most ordinary disciple of Cangyi Mountain, at best, he had more courage than other senior brothers, but if he wanted to When it comes to the ghost king, he also has to weigh it.
Today is the seventh day of Chen Gui's death. Once the seven days are over, Chen Gui's soul will not be reincarnated, but Chu Ji is still at a loss what to do, but the time of the ghost's mischief is too close to the time of Xiaohuadan's soul disappearing, it is hard not to make people doubt Therefore, Chu Ji had no choice but to start with Xiaohuadan before she was alive.
For example, when Mr. Chen asked about the theater where Xiaohuadan lived, the two of them rushed over without stopping.
The word "Chunyuan" was engraved on the plaque, and before entering, Chu Ji heard the sound of babbling and singing.
He knew that such a place existed, but he had never actually set foot there, but it seemed that there was no place in Wudu that Jun Fangbai was not familiar with. When the two of them entered the Spring Garden, a waiter rushed to greet them, calling each gentleman Gotta be enthusiastic.
Chu Ji couldn't help asking, "Why have you been everywhere?"
Jun Fangbai turned his head and raised his eyebrows at him when he heard the words, with a proud look, "The scope of my dabble is beyond the imagination of the Taoist priest."
Chu Ji bent his lips and smiled, it was rare that he didn't contradict Jun Mian.
In fact, since these days in Wudu, Jun Fangbai has indeed found a lot of convenience for him, and the connection alone is beyond Chu Ji's reach.
Chu Ji was used to being arrogant, and he couldn't learn how to deal with people. This time he met Jun Tang, he chatted and laughed happily with everyone, and after a while, the owner of the theater came out to meet him.
He was a middle-aged man in his forties, surnamed Yu, with an unshaven beard and a big belly. He really didn't look like he liked to listen to operas, but he spoke in a polite and literary manner.
When Jun Fangbai told the purpose of coming here, the boss's face suddenly changed, and he lowered his voice, "Let's go into the back room to talk."
When the three of them walked around the lobby, on the stage, small gongs were ringing crisply, accompanied by the sound of the erhu and the flute, playing a brisk tune. High in the sky, she turned around swiftly, her sleeves were like flowing water in her hands, but she retracted her hands steadily, with a graceful figure, her red cherry lips curved in a perfect arc, her beautiful eyes flowed, and her melodious tone flowed out, winning the guests off the stage. All the officials applauded.
With such a graceful posture, Chu Ji couldn't help thinking of Xiaohuadan who was taken captive into the Chen Mansion, and his eyes suddenly became very deep.
When they arrived in the back room, the owner of the theater looked at them with a serious expression, "If you have any questions, please ask."
Jun Fangbai said regretfully, "Thinking about it, you also know about the Chen family. We suspect that the current situation in the Chen family may be caused by people who are familiar with Xiao Huadan. I hope the boss will not hide it. The Chen family is naturally at fault, but Innocent people should not die because of this."
Boss Yu seemed to be a little entangled, rubbing his hands and walking back and forth, Chu Ji knew that he couldn't be forced at this time, even though he was impatient, he could only quietly wait for the boss's next words.
"My lord, to be honest, something happened in my theater a few days ago." Boss Yu clapped his hands, gritted his teeth, and finally planned to tell the story.
It turned out that little Huadan had a childhood sweetheart in the theater during her lifetime, named Lin Han, who was a martial arts student. On the day Chen Guiqiang robbed a civilian girl, but Lin Han obstructed him in every possible way, but was beaten to the point of death and bedridden. The news reached his ears for some unknown reason. He was already seriously injured, and he was so angry that he died without even getting through the night.
He didn't want to die with peace in his eyes, and when the boss buried him, he asked a Taoist priest to do a ritual ceremony for him, but the Taoist priest said that his resentment was too deep, and he was afraid that there would be no return.
Unexpectedly, after only three days, Chen Gui's body was found in the suburb, and that suburb happened to be where Lin Han's grave was located.
At this point, Chu Ji and Jun Fangbai's eyes, which were covered by clouds and mist, suddenly became brighter and clearer, and everything that happened in the Chen family finally had an explanation. , refused to let the people of the Chen family go, and very likely made a deal with Jiang Yuxiu for revenge, and sold his soul to Jiang Yuxiu.
How infatuated, how sad.
Jun Fangbai and Chu Ji hadn't spoken for a long time, their faces were very ugly, everything has a cause and effect, the evil cause of Chen Gui's sitting down that day is the evil result of the tragic death of six people in Chen's house today.
Coming out of the Spring Garden, Chu Jiduan sat in the carriage and remained silent all the time. He couldn't tell who was right and who was wrong, but there is no clear right and wrong in this world, and the culprit, Chen Gui, is already dead. , Lin Han no longer needs to attack innocent people.
The three wives of the Chen family, the maids, and the thugs all died in the hands of Lin Han, and it was time for him to stop.
Preoccupied, Jun Fangbai tugged at his sleeves, spread his palms on him, and said in a coaxing tone to the child, "Master Taoist, eat nuts."
Chu Ji looked at his hand full of different nuts, retracted his thoughts, his eyes lit up, "Where did you conjure it?"
Jun Fangbai said it very smoothly, "I just grabbed a handful in the Spring Garden."
The sun outside the car window was dim, and there were hawkers yelling endlessly. Chu Ji smiled silently at first, and couldn't help laughing softly after a while, then picked a chestnut from Jun Mian's white hand and threw it into his mouth, eating it Cheerful look.
Jun Fangbai looked at the corners of his slightly curled lips, with his hands still raised, leaning his back on the cushion, looking up at the hazy scene outside the car curtain, his eyes full of smiles.
The author has something to say:
So did Daga guess how Lin Han did it?In fact, I have a little hint hehe
