How to break into Liaozhai

Blue smoke floated above the Lucheng government office, and he couldn't help sighing as he watched the mourners coming in and out.

He Zixiao, an idiot, saw him as a Jinshi before, and thought he could cause some troubles. After he played himself to death, it made a side of it and gave him another body. In the end, this idiot tossed himself to death again.

Although it is unforeseen that Wang Rui lived in Zhelong's body, the second brother Wutongshen firmly believes that He Zixiao is an idiot.

Bah, I'm still a Jinshi.

Since his brothers died, he was left to fight alone, and his life was far less happy than before. Before, four points were used for errands, and six points were for fun. Now there are no helpers, only nine points are for work, and only one point is left for fun. up.

It heard someone begging itself again, and it cursed annoyedly: "Can't you human beings stop for a while? Every day and every night, there are desires to be satisfied!" Even though this is said, it cannot be neglected.It floated over following the sound of prayer, and found a plump woman kneeling on the ground, kowtowing with her palms together: "Wutong God, I have trouble with my husband, and he is always unable to do what he wants. Please ask Wutong God to let my husband Bring back the glory."

Haha, come here for whatever you want, when you are just about to worry about something, a woman will come to your door, okay, okay, your fairy will help you now.

It saw a man dressed as a scholar sitting on the kang in another room, presumably he was the husband of this woman, so it lowered its head and burrowed into the man's body.After walking a few steps down the ground, after getting used to his body, he strode into the house with his head raised, hugged the woman and threw her on the bed: "Little lady, let you know how powerful your husband is."

The woman lay on the bed, giggled, raised her sleeves, sprinkled the cinnabar all over her "husband's" face, and then kicked her "husband" off the kang: "Where is your husband from Aunt Yu?"

At the same time, Huang Jiulang and Hu Silang, who were ambushing behind the house, came in and tied their "husband" into rice dumplings without saying a word.

Although Wutongshen's second brother was trapped in the man's body and couldn't get out, he was not afraid at all. He sneered and said, "It's you foxes again, don't you have a long memory? What can you do to me? You are capable!" You killed this man too."

Huang Jiulang hugged his shoulders and sneered: "This man is just a beggar with a very low life. It's okay to kill him. However, killing is always bad, so we won't kill him."

Wutongshen's second brother said disdainfully: "I know you can't accomplish great things."

Huang Jiulang glanced at Hu Silang: "We have found a way to deal with you."

Hu Silang rummaged through ancient books and finally got something: "You are a scorpion. To kill you, you need the most yang thing. There are two most yang things in the world, the sun in the sky, and the fireworks in the world." See the expression of Wutong God Nervous, he was sure he was right: "Why, are you afraid of being exposed?"

Yu Xiaohong said: "Don't talk nonsense with it." He walked to the kitchen, moved the catastrophe on the stove into the house, and shook it at the "man": "All the fireworks in the world are here."

The bottom of the cooking pot is burned every day, absorbing the strongest smoke in the world. The second brother Wutongshen looked at the iron pot and pretended to be strong: "Do you think I'm afraid?"

Huang Jiulang's tone was light, and he said in an unhurried manner: "When people die, they become ghosts. Although ghosts are afraid of fireworks, they are not too frightened because they were humans before. But you are a ghost after death, and there is no one for you. Breath, touching smoke and fire is like ice meeting fire. Come on, give it a try, and see if the ancient book is true."

Yu Xiaohong smiled and put the iron pot on the "man"'s head, and heard the man shout hysterically: "Don't, don't do this—"

"Why are you yelling so loudly? You won't die immediately. You'll just feel like ants eating you, roasting you to death bit by bit." Huang Jiulang said: "The most important thing is that people are not afraid of fireworks." Son, this man will not be harmed in any way."

"It's useless for you to kill me. The empress will send someone to replace us."

"What lady?"

Wutongshen knew that he was about to die, and said in despair: "A powerful lady, I don't know her name, she turned our brother into a scorpion, and allowed us to come to the world to do my best and find the soul for her. . If you kill me, she will send others."

Huang Jiulang smiled and said: "Okay, then you should die first, and see if someone will replace you." After that, he took a rag to plug the "man"'s mouth, and tied his hands and feet together , Stuffed it under the big iron pot, and the whole person was buckled in it.

One day later, Huang Jiulang came over alone, opened the iron pot and saw that there was a puddle of filthy water marks on the top of the man's head, exuding a foul smell. It can be seen that the Wutongshen in his body had been roasted into sewage and dispersed. come out.Huang Jiulang woke up the beggar, gave him a sum of money, and sent him away.

Now that all the known Wutongshen are dead, the world should be peaceful.

Huang Jiulang went out of his body to investigate above Lucheng. He saw a believer who believed in Wutong God loudly scolding Wutong God for lying to him. Today he lost all his money. A villain who kidnapped a neighbor's daughter was chased and beaten. He shook his head and shouted to Wutong God to help him, but he was still beaten into a blood gourd.

He can finally breathe a sigh of relief, Wutongshen disappeared.

He returned to his body, and was about to go out to meet this peaceful world without Wutong God, when suddenly there was a booming sound under his feet, as if a monster was about to rush out from below, Huang Jiulang yelled badly, and got up to fly, and this time Suddenly, a slender beautiful hand stretched out from the ground, grabbed his ankle, and dragged him to the ground.

Jiulang wanted to give up his body and let Yuanshen escape first, but he didn't expect that he would not be able to get out of his body. This hand grabbed not only his body but also his Yinshen.

"Little fox, you killed several of my five links, how are you going to compensate me?" The owner's laughter came from the ground.

The strength of his hands was extremely strong, Huang Jiulang was not an opponent at all, seeing his sight getting lower and lower, and finally his sight was level with the ground, and after that, he couldn't see anything, it was pitch black.

...

-

Wang Rui and the others walked for a while, and two huge city gates appeared in front of them. A dim lantern hung on the first gate.

Wang Rui stared at the lantern. He felt that the lantern seemed to be alive, like a person's eyes, but they were closed now and could be opened at any time.

Walk through the first gate and come to the gate of the second gate. This time, there is a bright lantern hanging on the city gate, which is so dazzling that people can't keep their eyes open. It is the brightest place in the underworld, and the gray situation in other places It is different, when a person stands under this bright light, his hairs are fully visible, and he is so real that he has nowhere to hide.

At this time, I heard a ghost call: "It's not good, the wrong person has been arrested."

The other complained: "I just told you to look carefully. It's all in Fengdu City, so you can see it clearly. You can send it back, I don't care about it." Escorted the rest of the people and left.

Wang Rui wondered, didn't they come out of Yan Luodian just now, why did they come to Fengdu City again, shouldn't Yan Luodian be in Fengdu City: "Where are we going?"

It was only then that He Yun remembered that Wang Rui was a mortal and didn't know the structure of the underworld: "We are in Fengdu city at this time, and now we are going out of the city, and the evil dog is outside."

Understood, I followed He Yun one step at a time and went directly to the Hall of Yama. Now I have to follow the steps to leave the city and walk in the opposite direction with the ghosts who entered Fengdu City.

He brushed past ghosts and ghosts, wondering if he would be like this a hundred years from now?The remuneration is too bad, do more good deeds and try to live a few more years.

After leaving the city gate, Wang Rui turned his head and saw two large characters written on the top of the city gate: Fengdu.

Wang Rui asked worriedly: "He Yunyi, can you calculate how long I can live?"

It's too early to count: "The secret of heaven must not be leaked, but judging by your troubled appearance, I'm afraid it will be difficult to live to the end of your life, so why ask how much life you have left?"

Wang Rui said angrily: "Your words really comforted me."

When He Yun saw that he was angry, he said with a smile: "But don't worry, if you die unexpectedly, I will help you recover the sun. But you have to remember one thing, you must not drink the water in the pavilion in front of you."

A small pavilion with the words "Ecstasy Palace" appeared in front of it. There was a well in the middle of the pavilion, and behind the well was a long queue that could not be seen.

"This is the ecstasy water. The ghosts who drink the ecstasy water will no longer tell lies, and then enter Fengdu City to go to Yama of the Ten Halls and tell the truth about the bad things they have done, knowing everything without saying anything." He Yun said: "Drinking this water, you will not be able to live when you return to the world."

People tell a lot of nonsense, but in fact, living people are full of lies. They can't even live without telling lies, and they can't imagine how a person who can't tell lies should live.

Wang Rui saw that the people queuing up to get the river water by the well were orderly, neither crowding nor robbing, nor did they run away. He asked in puzzlement, "Are people so honest after death? If they run away, what will happen if they don't drink the water?" "

"No one will run away. Let's go on and find out."

Wang Rui then followed He Yunyi and continued to walk forward. Along the way, he could still see ghost messengers escorting their souls. These ghost messengers would occasionally glance at He Yunyi and Wang Rui, but they immediately acted as if they had nothing to do with them. Well, anyway, those who can come to the underworld are not ordinary people. If you don't die, you can go around. If something happens, someone will naturally come to catch it.

In a trance, there was a burst of silk and bamboo orchestral sound, ethereal and pleasant, and I saw a bustling street in front of me. There were various stalls on both sides of the road, melons, plums, peaches, pastries and bacon. There are vaguely visible women dancing inside, beckoning passers-by to enter.

At this time, a team escorted by ghost messengers passed by, and some ghosts in the team couldn't stand the temptation, so as soon as they passed by, they secretly picked up a piece of pastry, stuffed it into their mouths, and began to chew.

"Ah—ah—" The pastry stuffed into his mouth turned into a nail, piercing his greedy mouth, and blood was dripping.

At this time, the stall owner took the opportunity to rush up, grabbed the man's arm, pulled it hard, and tore it off, and shouted cheerfully to his back: "Son, come quickly, your arm that was eaten by the vicious dog is where it belongs!" gone."

A one-armed boy ran out and urged: "Father, put it on me quickly."

And the ghost whose arm was torn off held his broken arm and cried, "Master Guicha, what should I do, you have to help me—"

The ghost guard in charge of the escort scolded angrily: "I told you not to eat food from this wild ghost village. If you insist on eating, you deserve it! You have an incomplete soul, and you will not be a smart person after reincarnation." The man cried: "They snatched my arm, isn't this a robber?"

"Then you are a thief, and there is no reason for this kind of thing to be brought to the Palace of the King of Hades! You can bear it yourself!"

The boy who lost his arm and his father lined up at the back of the line happily, and said happily: "After waiting here for three years, I can finally reincarnate with a full body and soul."

Wang Rui took these in his eyes and kept them in his heart. These are all customs clearance cheats, and he will use them when he dies.

Along the way through the wild ghost village, from time to time ghosts snatch arms and legs because of stealing or coveting dancing women.

After walking out of the wild ghost village, a hillside appeared in front of it soon, with three gold-plated characters hanging: Jinji Mountain.

Before entering the mountain, he heard the horrific cry from inside, Wang Rui grinned: "What is this place for?"

"In the place where ghosts are given killing power, there are many dissatisfied ghosts who have just arrived in hell. After passing Jinji Mountain and Vigou Ridge, even the disobedient ghosts will be subdued."

No wonder the ghosts I met just now all looked numb. That’s right, why are there so many ghosts who stay in the human world, while the ghosts encountered in the underworld are honest and honest, and their roots are here.

As soon as I entered Jinji Mountain, I saw countless big roosters standing on the hillsides on both sides. When they saw ghosts, they flapped their wings and pecked them. The ghosts were either blinded or lost their flesh. Some of them had no good parts. Meat.

And the ghost messengers didn't care, they were all chatting and watching the fun not far from the exit.

"People's hearts are not ancient, and they don't believe in the set passed down by the old ancestors. Look at these ghosts whose souls were pecked, and those ghosts who were escorted in the early years, most of them had grains in their chests. Chickens only pecked grains, but they didn't peck people. Well, it's better now, look, this crying father and mother is harsh."

Another ghost messenger curled his lips against the hillside and said, "I heard that Mr. Yin Yang over there in the Yangjian couldn't eat enough, so he stopped working. No one told the children of the dead that they have to put grains on their chests to deal with this Jinji Mountain when they die. They deserve it." Well, what else can I say."

Wang Rui clung to He Yunyi, wishing to write down the ghost messenger's words, and after he went back, he must order him to put the grains when he died.

He Yunyi asked him, "Do you want to watch it?"

To be honest, it was too bloody, Wang Rui said, "If I don't read it, I won't be able to walk."

"Didn't you drag me?"

That's right, Wang Rui closed his eyes, and at this moment he felt that He Yunyi tapped him on the forehead, and he couldn't even hear the sound. After walking for a while, when He Yunyi tapped him again, He opened his eyes and was already out of Jinji Mountain.

He Yunyi pointed to the front and said, "Here we are, Vigouling."

There is a mountain under the mist of Yunshan Mountain, which looks much larger than the Jinji Ridge just now, and there are barking dogs from time to time, and the screams are even worse than Jinji Ridge.

Wang Rui had a bitter face: "I'm done."

"What are you done?"

"I killed a dog before, I'm afraid these dogs won't spare me."

"With me here, what are you afraid of?"

"I'm afraid that after I die..." Wang Rui didn't think about anything else during his trip to the underworld, his mind was full of what happened next.

When He Yun saw that he didn't seem to be pretending, he couldn't help becoming suspicious. No matter how he looked at him, he was a mortal, and he himself was genuinely worried about death. Just such an ordinary person, why is there no record in the Book of Life and Death?The more ordinary he looks, the more inexplicable he becomes.

There is no record in the book of life and death. I am afraid that after the body dies, there will be no ghosts sent to arrest the soul.Thinking about it this way, He Yunyi suddenly felt that Wang Rui was quite pitiful: "Don't worry, I will definitely find you a home."

Wang Ruining raised his eyebrows, what does it mean to find a home, isn't his home the underworld.

Yan Yunguang had appeared near here, and He Yunyi didn't dare to neglect, and when he walked into the Vigou Ridge, he carefully observed every step he took.

The vicious dogs all over the mountains and plains stand upright with their teeth bared and grinning. Whenever there is a soul passing by, they will go up and bite. The ghost was torn to pieces, and facing He Yunyi, the vicious dogs avoided and ran away with their tails between their legs.

He Yunyi took out a piece of meat from his sleeve and threw it to the dogs: "Which one of you has seen a Taoist priest? Also dressed like me."

The dogs whimpered and shook their heads with their tails intertwined, showing timid expressions, and refused to eat the piece of meat.

"Forget it, you can do what you want." He Yunyi said disappointedly, and led Wang Rui to the outside of Vigou Ridge.

This is too casual, the dog said he didn't see it, and left?impossible!After thinking about it, Wang Rui suddenly felt his body lighten up. It turned out that he was led by He Yunyi to jump up the cliff of Egouling.

They found a cliff and fell down, lay down and listened to the conversation of the dogs below.

A little dog said: "I didn't expect that Taoist priest to have a brother. He is already very difficult to deal with. If there is another one, my mother will be troubled."

Another black dog said: "Yeah, I'm really worried. Except for the empress who will feed us, who else took care of us. Before the empress came, no one had fed us a bite for thousands of years. It was the Taoist who picked us up." Pi, we can't reveal a single word about Empress!"

Upon hearing this, He Yun smiled lightly and said, "It's a loyal dog."

Wang Rui lowered his voice and said, "They call that person Niangniang, and I saw a statue of a woman among the smashed Wutongshen. It must be a person. We have found the right place."

At this time, the vicious dog below pricked up its ears, as if it had heard Wang Rui's conversation and became alert.

He Yun looked down at it indifferently, with an expression of "It's okay, once you find me, I'll blow your dog's head off", it's fitting that this dog's life should not die, and at this time another group of people came to the intersection Ghost, the dog said with a smile: "Haha, it turns out that someone is here again." Pulling out its four legs, it rushed to bite.

He Yunyi lay on his back on the rock, turning a deaf ear to the screams around him: "Didn't they say that the lady would feed them? Then just wait."

Seeing that he was lying leisurely, Wang Rui also leaned on the rock and lay beside him. After a while, he sighed: "I want to say something, don't you think I'm annoying..."

He was hungry, not just hungry.

He Yun didn't even open his eyes: "You touch my sleeve."

Wang Rui reached into his sleeve and touched his smooth forearm, causing He Yun to open his eyes and look at him dissatisfied.Wang Rui hurriedly said: "I'm sorry." He fumbled in his sleeve pocket and found a greased paper bag. Needless to say, it contained snacks. He couldn't help smiling and rolled his eyes: "How do you know I'm hungry?"

He Yunyi didn't answer, the corners of his mouth curled up, "satisfactorily" maintaining his mystery.

Just as Wang Rui was about to eat, he thought of something, and hurriedly shut up: "Will the vicious dogs below smell it?"

"Their noses can't smell the food on Earth."

In this case, Wang Rui ate boldly, and after a few mouthfuls he was thirsty, and he had a bitter face: "I want to say something good, don't bother me, I..." He Yunyi also kept his eyes open. Without raising it, he said, "Touch my sleeve again."

Wang Rui obediently went to touch it and took out a teapot. He was suddenly very moved: "...you really understand me."

He Yunyi's heart skipped a beat: "Who understands you now." He turned over and lay on his side.

There is no sun in the underworld, and it will always be gray, because it is impossible to tell whether it is day or night, and people cannot feel the passage of time.

I don't know how long it took, the barking dogs quieted down, and the dogs all over the mountains and plains ran to one place.

He Yun said, "I'm going to make you smaller and put it in my sleeve, don't be afraid." After finishing speaking, Wang Rui felt his body shrinking rapidly, and soon his body was not as tall as the surrounding weeds, and his height would be only half As big as a palm.He couldn't help but panic: "I, I..."

He Yunyi stretched out his hand to let him sit up, and then he put it into his sleeve carefully: "I'm going to chase this Chunyan later, so it will be more convenient to take you with me."

Wang Rui thought to himself, wouldn't it be more convenient if you didn't bring me here, but now it's over: "Oh, just don't drop me." He grabbed his sleeve tightly.

He Yunyi flew to chase the group of vicious dogs and arrived at the place where they gathered.

A girl who looked like a maid was holding a basket, and she was taking out meat from it and spreading it around: "Don't grab it, don't grab it, everyone has a share!"

After the servant girl fed the dog, she walked away lightly. He Yunyi followed at a distance, and followed the servant girl all the way to Wangxiang Terrace.

Wangxiang Terrace is the poor ghost of the gods and Buddhas in the sky, who can never return to the world after stepping on Huangquan Road. He specially set up a high platform where he can see his hometown. This high platform is surrounded by a black abyss that cannot be seen to the bottom. No one has ever explored what lies inside. What, some people say that it leads directly to Naihe Bridge, while others say that there is nothing in it.

Now this servant girl came to Wangxiang Terrace and saw no one around, so she bent down and jumped into the abyss.

He Yunyi will not believe it now, there is nothing to say under this abyss.

He came to the edge of the abyss and jumped down without even thinking about it. During the descent, he was afraid that Wang Rui would fly out, so he tightened his cuffs, and after a long time fell to a solid ground, he let go of the cuffs.

Sitting in his sleeve, Wang Rui panted heavily, and inadvertently looked out, and saw a tall and magnificent mansion in front of him, with three gilt characters on it: To Guyuan.

The maid had already disappeared at this time, as soon as He Yun walked to the front of the mansion, he slammed on the door hard, and after a while, he heard footsteps, as if someone came to open the door.

"Who knocked?"

"Excuse me, can you see a little Taoist priest?"

One eye appeared in the crack of the door, and she snorted and said: "Your Majesty is right, a Taoist priest who is looking for trouble is not enough, his senior brother will also come to the door!" After finishing speaking, he opened the door latch and let He Yun go As soon as he came in: "Your Majesty said that if anyone comes to the Taoist priest, they should be led to her."

"Who is your mistress?"

"I'm afraid I'll scare you if I say it, so I don't want to say it! Anyway, it's not someone you can mess with."

He Yun looked around and saw that there was a hole in the lonely garden. After walking for a while, there was a big river of boiling water lying in front of them. .

The maid pulled out the hairpin and swiped it, the river parted in the middle, revealing a passage: "Please."

He Yunyi followed the footsteps of the servant girl across the river and reached the other bank.

There was a neat row of houses on the bank. At this time, an older maid came out from the middle room. After seeing He Yun, she greeted him first, and said politely: "It's okay to see our mother, but you can't do it in your sleeves." Hiding things, let alone hiding a living person."

As soon as He Yun saw that Wang Rui was found, he took him out and made him bigger again: "Let's go down, don't dawdle, take me to see your mother quickly."

The slightly older maid said: "You two come with me, our mother is busy now, please wait in this comfortable nest." After speaking, she pushed open the door of a room and let them in.

The moment Wang Rui stepped into the room, he saw the surrounding scenery change rapidly. When he put one foot down, the surrounding scene had completely changed into the living room of his home. He froze in place and sent out a series of thoughts, Where am I and what happened just now?

"Rui'er, you're back, if we knew you'd be going for such a long time, we wouldn't let you go to Caozhou."

His parents came out from the back hall and asked him earnestly about his trip to Caozhou.

Wang Rui looked at his parents vigilantly, but with his naked eyes, no matter how he looked at them, he couldn't see any flaws. Both their appearance and tone of voice were the same as his parents. He even felt that their wrinkles were in the same position as his parents. match in my own memory.

Just like when he returned home after participating in the provincial examination, his father Wang Yongde prepared a sumptuous dish for him to welcome him, and handed him another thousand 800 taels of silver for him to spend.

Holding the bank note, Wang Rui felt overwhelmed, I want to see what other tricks you monsters have, so he went out with the bank note.

Outside the door is not the blood river for the lonely garden, but the inner house of their Wang family. The maids who are working are walking around, and they call him young master when they see him.

Wang Rui clicked his lips: "A powerful illusion!" When he came to the street, the pedestrians were bustling, everyone looked so real, and there was nothing unusual. At this time, someone behind him said: "Brother!"

When he turned around, he saw that it was Huo Huan, and he smiled at him with his small white teeth: "When did you come back? Just right, brother Wei is hosting guests today, come together, we will welcome you."

Wang Rui thought that if you dare to invite guests, I will dare to go to the banquet, and said coolly: "Then let's go!" Following Huo Huan, he went to Wei Xingxian's villa in the suburbs, eating and drinking, teasing prostitutes, and being teased by prostitutes like every time , compose poems, sing pornographic songs, and have fun.

After eating and drinking, it was already evening, Wang Rui was sitting in the carriage, still doubting his life, what kind of illusion is this?

Is it to let me live my daily life? !

As soon as this idea came out, Wang Rui felt that the surrounding scene changed rapidly. He blinked again and found himself in a simple room with only a round table and two chairs. He sat on one of the chairs and the other Zhang Ze was occupied by He Yunyi, who looked at him with his chin resting on his back.

"What do you see?"

"Daily life, parents give money, friends eat and drink, it's boring." Wang Rui said: "Why, you know I'm hallucinating?"

"As soon as you enter this 'comfort nest', you have been tricked. According to Chunyan, people will lose their fighting spirit, indulge in pleasure, and indulge in enjoyment." He Yun smiled slightly, with a bit of helplessness: "You see It turned out to be just your daily life, which shows that you were already living in your comfort zone."

Wang Rui didn't know whether to cry or laugh: "So my life is so good, by the way, what about you, what did you see?"

"How could I be confused by this place! Chunyan said that those who are trapped in their comfort zone must escape by themselves, and others can only wait helplessly. I thought you would be immersed in it for a long time, but I didn't expect you to wake up in less than a quarter of an hour .”

"You've been repeating Chunyan's words, where is Chunyan?" Wang Rui looked left and right but didn't see anyone else.

"To be precise, part of her is in the house, and the rest of her ran to report."

Wang Rui felt that the shoe touched a long-haired Cuju, and he swallowed: "...Don't tell me, her head is under the table."

"It can't be placed on the table." He Yun said, "Chunyan, don't you think so?"

Chunyan under the table rolled her eyes fiercely with anger. This stinky Taoist priest not only failed to fall into the enchantment spell of the comfort zone, but also turned his face suddenly when he learned that the person who was hit could only go back by himself, and outsiders could not save him. , chopped off her head with the Hidden Blade, fortunately her body was running fast.

"Our Empress Jinse will not spare you!"

Wang Rui clasped his hands together: "So that's how it is. The poems read by Yan Yunguang, the most important thing is the last sentence of Sihua Nian: Jinse has fifty strings for no reason! Jinse!"

"Can you name our empress too?! Hmph!"

Wang Rui laughed and said, "Didn't you call him by his first name just now? You called him a servant. What's wrong with me as an outsider? If you say it's disrespectful, you should be even more disrespectful."

Chunyan was choked and almost rolled her eyes behind her head.

As soon as He Yun smiled, he found more and more that Wang Rui was quite funny, and he would feel better every time he spoke.
