Chapter 97 Si
Chapter 97 Si
In the middle of the night, with the crimson moon at its head, the Clapper Ghost ran across the street beating the gong, bouncing across the street, and the dark roads on both sides were no longer moving around.
It stands to reason that the little ghosts of the Northwest City Lord's Mansion should continue to patrol around at this point in order to find out the whereabouts of the City Lord, but I don't know what happened tonight, a red-faced ghost with a lantern came from another place After calling a few times furtively, these little ghosts who got wind of something inexplicably left this side obediently and ran to the next street to patrol.
No one is clear about the reason for this, but this avenue that has been secretly emptied is obviously much deserted than usual, even if someone suddenly shouts for help on the street, no one can hear it at all.
In this case, it is much easier for the various forces in the city who have been hiding in the dark to observe quietly for several days to do something in private, and even before the red moon has completely set tonight, a certain dormant After many days in the city, the three people who have almost lost all patience are already ready to move.
……
"Hey, tell me if there was something wrong with that old witch yesterday. We explained so much to her with good intentions. What kind of attitude did she have? She dared to call us perverts! Her granddaughter lost it for some reason. I can understand being anxious! But aren’t we forced to do this for the sake of the people’s living and working in peace and contentment, and the happiness of the people’s families! We didn’t do it voluntarily either! Tell me about her attitude!”
"Um, in fact, the old woman will be angry later... Mainly because of Officer Liao, you said she was an old witch... The old man is always easy to get angry, but her attitude towards the surname teacher was quite good at the beginning... ...Is that right, the surname is Teacher?"
"kindness?"
He didn't pay attention to what the two of them were talking about before, so he raised his head with a slightly suspicious look in his eyes. Jin Heng's completely slow reaction made Liao Feiyun, who was squatting at the entrance of the alley from the beginning to the end, not even looking at him, turned over. He rolled his eyes, and then he hummed and said,
"...Well, what ah, dare you never listen to the two of us just now... It's okay, Xiaoguang, don't ask this idiot, I think we should continue to wait for those criminal suspects to show up by themselves ... But speaking of it, the oil on this clam girl's body is quite miraculous, why does our skin become so slippery like a little girl's when it gets on our face and hands, and it smells a little sweet... Uh...you two think I look...don't I look pretty girly now? Can you still see that I'm actually a pure man?"
So Jin Heng and Shi Xiaoguang crouched in a hidden corner and murmured. Before, they were very resistant, but now they seem to have begun to accept their own "Donghai clam girl" and the "Liao clam girl" suddenly Curiously lowered his voice and asked.
Seeing that he finished speaking, they moved their faces closer to themselves, and the facial features were also softened a lot because of the oil of the mussel girl. Shi Xiaoguang first stared at Liao Feiyun's unshaven face with stubble and watery spirit. After looking at the strange shape of the big eyes for a while, he took a step back carefully and then looked aside while considering his words and coughed,
"No...no, it's good, but you may not look like the Donghai mussel girl that the surname teacher said..."
"Huh? So what do I look like now?"
"Like a dead fish in the West Sea."
Liao Feiyun: "..."
The plain voice suddenly coming from the side made Liao Feiyun's expression stiff for a moment. With his eyes closed, he knew that a certain brat was taking revenge for what he said he had just stayed. Police officer Liao first stared at the wall in front of him, deeply After taking a breath, I was ready to turn around and yell at you, you bastard, you said who is a dead fish, why didn't you say that you still look like a Tianchi water monster.
But before the words came out of his mouth, he suddenly met the 'white-haired woman' with long hair rolled up and a quiet and soft face beside him, and after stammering for a long time, he almost yelled out the familiar and unfamiliar words Liao Feiyun stared at Jin Heng in front of him with a depressed face and said,
"Hey, let me tell you... You rub the oil on your face, why do you look so similar to Miss Shu? I didn't think you two were very similar before... It's really evil..."
"The oil of the clam girl can not only nourish the sebum of the face, but also a palace medicine that can greatly improve the secretion of female hormones in the human body. That's why I said before that the three of us don't need to deliberately dress up as women, and the black dragon will temporarily Mistaking us for women, and she's my sister, so there's something wrong with her looks."
"Yes, yes, no problem, no problem, but please, can you stop staring at me with those dead fish eyes, I always feel that it is Miss Shu who is staring at me with dead fish eyes, I really have goose bumps all over my body coming……"
Liao Feiyun muttered so silently and moved a little uncomfortably towards Shi Xiaoguang. Jin Heng, who didn't feel that there was anything wrong with him now, didn't even bother to talk to him when he saw this. He just frowned and looked at Liao Feiyun again, and then Then he continued to pay attention to the movement on the street outside.
And Shi Xiaoguang who was on the side heard that they suddenly mentioned Jin Shu just now, he was obviously a little curious, hesitated for a while, but couldn't hold back and asked in a low voice,
"Does Officer Liao also know the elder sister surnamed Shi?"
"Ah? You know... I was not smart at school, and I didn't pass the entrance exam several times, so I failed the grade. At that time, my dad asked an old classmate to transfer to the class next to them. At that time, sister Shu often came to the school to see Jinheng. As time passed I just got to know each other... My mother let me take the boiled eggs for lunch to school, and other bad boys snatched it. She was the one who did it for me. Jin Heng and I went out to play... At that time, Sister Shu was the best in the world to both of us..."
"The elder sister surnamed Shi is now...?"
"..."
Hearing that Jin Heng didn't immediately answer Shi Xiaoguang's question, he just looked at the dark avenue outside in silence and didn't speak, but seeing that he obviously didn't want to say anything, Liao Feiyun could only take the initiative to answer and said helplessly. ,
"...It's gone, it's gone a long time ago, if Sister Shu was still here, how wonderful it would be for this big family now, she loved Jin Heng so much since she was a child, knowing that her precious brother has finally found a partner, and her life has gradually stabilized It must be the happiest time to come down..."
Saying so was inexplicably emotional, and Liao Feiyun instantly became a little depressed, making Shi Xiaoguang look at him apologetically, and also made Jin Heng, who was silent beside him, frowned less obviously.
And knowing that he doesn't like to take the initiative to bring up the past with others, so Liao Feiyun didn't say much after that, just raised his hand and shook it like a madman, and casually explained the matter just now,
"...Hey, forget it...I'm not talking nonsense anymore, Jin Heng, see if the time is almost up, is it time for us to do serious things..."
Hearing what he said, Jin Heng, who was silent with his eyes downcast, gave a casual acknowledgment before he looked at the red moon above his head, and the serious thing the three of them said was naturally how to find a chance to catch the black dragon Qin tonight. Xuan's business.
These nights, Jin Heng, Liao Feiyun, and Shi Xiaoguang have inquired a lot of news in the city, and on the premise of collecting sufficient physical and personal evidence, they also set their ultimate goal on this hidden back street tonight. superior.
Some of this information came from the Northwest City Lord's Mansion, and the little paper lords scattered by Jin Heng also told him the valuable news scattered around now as much as possible.
And two days ago, through Xiao Zhigong, I found the traces left by the old man Dengxi and Meilang who had been around several times in the northwest city. In fact, he and Qin Gentian had been looking for them for a long time before, but now they still choose Jin Heng who does not move. He just quietly waited in the dark for the moment when the opportunity came, until a sound like thunder and rainstorm suddenly came from the dark night sky, then his expression quickly sank and he hid in the alley together with Liao Feiyun and Shi Xiaoguang He glanced out of his mouth.
As far as the eye can see, a little ghost is walking slowly on the dead and dark road. The little ghost is three feet long, wears a white coat, and has blue-faced fangs. From a distance, he looks like a very ordinary little ghost. But at the same time, the four Five ewes tied by ropes also walked slowly forward under his driving.
If there is anything strange about this group of ewes and little ghosts, ordinary people will definitely not be able to see it, but if you look carefully, you will find that the eyes of this little ghost are golden, and the hair color of the ewes is faintly golden, while Jin Heng Seeing this scene with his own eyes, his expression couldn't stop being weird. He frowned and thought for a long time before softly opening his mouth and saying,
"This kid seems to be from the Yin Division, and he still has a serious official position. He is not at all... the ordinary evil spirits we have seen."
"Ghost...ghost messenger? Have you ever seen a ghost messenger, Jin Heng?"
It's the first time I've heard of ghosts in such an old age. I haven't been to the Yin Division, so I don't know much about the difference between ghosts and real ghosts. Liao Feiyun and Shi Xiaoguang were a little surprised for a while, but they still lowered their voices and asked carefully Hearing the words, Jin Heng shook his head with an uneasy expression, and after a moment of silence, he seemed unsure and said,
"I haven't seen it with my own eyes, but ①Cao Pi of the Eastern Han Dynasty wrote "Lie Yi Zhuan", in which there is a small note called "Song Dingbo Selling Ghosts", which mentioned the characteristics of ghosts in the underworld. The scholar Song Dingbo met ghosts at night, Because of the fear in his heart, he pretended to be a ghost messenger on purpose. The ghost messenger slept with him that night, and the two chatted. Song Dingbo accidentally learned from the ghost messenger that ordinary ghosts are afraid of spittle, and when they encounter saliva, they will turn into golden sheep. ..."
"..."
"I just saw that the eyes of those ewes were all wrong. They should have understood human nature, so I suspect...the reason why we and Gentiana Qin couldn't find black dragons in the human world and the ghost world before may be because black dragons are not where we think they are at all." In those places, in order to hide the traces of the black dragon, Meilang and the others should have bribed the ghost messenger, first let the ghost messenger go around asking for their lives to steal the ghosts of the female ghosts, and then turn them into ewes with saliva and send them to the underworld for the black dragon to enjoy... ...If we follow it all the way, we might be able to find the Black Dragon...and also find the way this Guicha and Meilang and the others secretly deal..."
After Jin Heng explained so carefully, many doubts that had shrouded this matter before seemed to be solved at once. The expressions of Liao Feiyun and Shi Xiaoguang were a little shocked, and more of a sense of trance when the truth was suddenly revealed.
But at the moment, he couldn't help asking, what should we do next, and follow up quietly? Hearing Liao Feiyun asking himself so anxiously, Jin Heng only frowned and thought for a while, and then stared at him thoughtfully. Those ewes who are about to be taken to the underworld, and may never come back in this life, suddenly took out a bundle of hemp rope and a piece of white paper from their sleeves and said,
"Ghost messengers are different from ordinary people. After being caught up by it and then taking away the ghost, the three of us can only die tonight, and we don't even have a chance to go to the underworld to seek justice...so for safety's sake, I will wait for you later. First go up to block the road and steal a sheep to escape. You two take the opportunity to scare the sheep from the side, and strive to achieve the goal of disturbing the ghosts and rescue the sheep. If everything goes well, we will find a way to catch it and let it lead us Go to the underworld..."
"Disturbing the line of sight? Scaring the sheep? But the sheep seem to be very good... What can we... use to scare them, surnamed teacher?"
"use this."
Answering this, the white paper in his hand was quickly folded into the shape of a tiger, and when it was thrown to the ground, it made a whimpering sound exactly like the big tiger in the mountain. Liao Feiyun and Shi Xiaoguang's Jin Heng picked up the rope knot in their hands and said calmly with no expression on their faces,
"It's okay to scare it hard, and it's okay to take it away if necessary."
Liao Feiyun: "..."
Shi Xiaoguang: "..."
After Jin Heng said that, Liao Feiyun and Shi Xiaoguang naturally couldn't say anything, so the three of them sneaked up to the ghost who was still driving the sheep and walked slowly forward, and they were a little nervous together. Waited for a while.
Just at this moment, the ghost guard looked sleepy, and yawned in a daze toward the sky, and Liao Feiyun and Shi Xiaoguang, who saw the right moment, then blew loudly at the group of ewes, resounding half a row. Whistling on the street, and seeing Jin Heng with cold eyes throw out the knotted rope in his hand, he quickly took away one of the front sheep, turned around and ran out of the alley to another more remote deep place. lane.
"Meh-!!!!!!"
"Who!! Who stole my sheep!!! Who!!! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"
"Aww——!!!!"
Almost at this moment, the sheep blew, the roar of the ghost messenger and the roar of the paper tiger all sounded together, and Liao Feiyun and Shi Xiaoguang, who were busy scaring the sheep and stopping the ghost messenger in the chaotic situation, had no time to visit Jin Heng limped and ran there, but concentrated on coping with the situation in front of him.
And the ghost messenger who was completely caught off guard by this wave searched for a long time in the dark, staring at his eyes, and vaguely saw a Jin Heng holding his sheep and ran away, so the ghost messenger who suddenly burst into anger didn't have much time. To care about the others, he just grinned sinisterly and chased after him with his fangs, roaring loudly,
"Where did the ignorant mortals come from!! How dare you steal the sheep of my Ghost Lord!!! See where you are going!! Watch where you are going!!!"
The ever-expanding ghost snarled like this, and the steps under his feet became very fast. Under the circumstances of ordinary people, he could not resist such a terrifying pursuit, so even Jin Heng, who was leaning against the wall, realized that he and the ghost behind him The distance is getting closer, and he can almost clearly feel that death is slowly approaching him, even almost brushing the roots of his ears. The ugly Jin Heng holds the trembling sheep in his hand and simply stops In the alley.
But just as he with an indifferent expression was about to take out the Yao surname book that he hadn't had time to use in his sleeve to resist the situation in front of him, he suddenly felt a rattling noise coming out of the little mouse hole under his feet. sound.
And when Jin Heng frowned and glanced at the bottom of his feet, before he had time to see what it was, he was dragged into the mouse hole under his feet by the hand that stretched out all of a sudden. , and almost fell down but was carefully supported by someone. As soon as Jin Heng raised his head, he met the pair of gray eyes that he was so familiar with, and even obviously teasing. .
"...Yo, where is this girl from? Why do I look so familiar? My sister, have we met somewhere before?"
Jin Heng: "..."
The author has something to say: ① Song Dingbo sells ghosts, from "Lie Yi Zhuan"
