How to break into Liaozhai

Late at night in early autumn, in this monastery that had just had a flood and was leaking everywhere, Ning Caichen secretly gritted his teeth, he must persevere, and get the account to get his own salary, he must earn this money.

Even if Lanruo Temple is really haunted, what's so scary about it? Is there a shortage of money?

Suddenly, he heard a creaking sound from the door of the meditation room. He was so frightened that he didn't dare to move. He even stopped breathing. He took back what he said just now. Although lack of money for medical treatment is terrible, ghosts are also terrible.

"...Scholar..."

He heard a cold female voice talking, not daring to breathe, didn't the scholar call him?Surely not, sleep and sleep.

"I know you haven't slept. You should leave here quickly. If you stay any longer, you will die. Grandma will start eating from the meditation room in the north. It will be your turn tomorrow night."

Seems like a kind ghost?Ning Caichen made up his mind, opened his eyes, and saw a woman as beautiful as a fairy standing beside his bed.

People not only judge people by their appearance, but also judge ghosts by their appearance. Even if the other party is suspected to be a female ghost, but she is beautiful, she is not so afraid: "You, who are you? Why save me?"

Nie Xiaoqian didn't want to talk nonsense, and reached out her hand to touch the table. Ning Caichen was shocked to see her hand pass through the table.

There is no doubt that she has no physical body and is a ghost.

"I helped you, and I hope you can repay me. My name is Nie Xiaoqian. Please tell the magistrate of Yangxin County that Nie Xuetai's family has died. Nie Xiaoqian's ghost is trapped in the big pagoda tree in Lanruo Temple."

As a ghost, if she steps into the Yamen rashly, she will be blown away by righteousness and official spirit, so she can only ask others. After searching for a long time, she finally met a scholar.

"I am so grateful..." Nie Xiaoqian was in tears, and her figure gradually disappeared.

Ning Caichen pulled back the quilt in astonishment, and then hugged him tightly until dawn. When he heard the rooster crowing, he knocked on the door of the meditation room one by one. The meditation room to the north of him obviously slept last night, but now there is no answer.

At this time, the rest of the meditation room heard the movement and came out: "What's the matter, what's the matter?"

Ning Caichen told what happened last night. Not only did the group not believe it, one of the chubby men even joked: "I'm not afraid, if I run into each other, the male ghost will fight out, and the female ghost will drag her in to enjoy. Haha. "

"There were still people asleep in the meditation room here last night, and now they don't open the door no matter what they call, I'm afraid they have encountered ghosts and killed them." with a pile of white powder.

"...It's the same as those who disappeared..." At this time, the man who was joking just now was also afraid, and cold sweat dripped down his face.

Ning Caichen said: "Anyway, I won't be staying tonight, everyone take care." After speaking, he immediately rolled up his sleeves and ran outside Lanruo Temple.

He's had enough of this damn place, and now he's going to collect the bills, and if the road is impassable, he'll have to swim across the mountains to get there.

Collect the bill and go home, as for Nie Xiaoqian...

If he goes to report to the government, will the government believe it?Said that he met a ghost and heard a lie?

Ning Caichen was hesitant to collect the bill and leave, or go to the Yamen to make trouble for himself.

Finally, his heart broke and he ran towards the county seat.

The leaves of the big pagoda tree rustled, rustling over the desolate Lanruo Temple.

Snapped!A resounding slap landed on Nie Xiaoqian's face, and grandma roared: "How can I be sorry for you? You came to tear down my platform? Without my branches, you want to take revenge without knowing it? Ingratitude You want to ask that scholar to lead someone to rescue you? Xiaoqing, did you hear me right?"

At this time, a woman in blue clothes held her grandma's arm, and said half coquettishly: "It's definitely not wrong, I heard it with my own ears."

Xiaoqing was originally one of the victims devoured by her grandmother, but after being killed, she couldn't help but not reincarnated, but stayed to help the tiger instead.

Nie Xiaoqian covered her face: "Since grandma despises me, why don't you destroy my urn and drive me out of my wits?"

"Hahahaha——" Grandma seemed to have heard a joke: "You haven't repaid my kindness, and you want to get rid of it? Just dream! I want you to use your beauty to lure me back. Three a day, one less, I will give you a whip! You remember! Starting tomorrow! Xiaoqing, you supervise her!"

Xiaoqing replied sweetly, "Yes, grandma."

Nie Xiaoqian's expression is indifferent, she can't see joy or sorrow, all this is her own fault, ever since she used her grandma's ability to take revenge, she knew that there would be such a day, but she didn't know how difficult it was until she really embarked on this road, let her help grandma She would rather the urn be destroyed if it harmed innocent people.

Now she can only hope that Ning Caichen can bring her news to Weizhi County and ask him to find a way to save her.

Grandma smiled disdainfully: "The Black Mountain old demon has been sucked, do you think I will be afraid of a little magistrate? Hahaha!"

Xiao Qing gave Nie Xiaoqian a contemptuous look while beating her grandmother's shoulders.

-

Although the poor god was successfully sent away, Wang Rui had no confidence in the next plague god.

According to Bai Qiyuan, although the God of Plague is not very popular, he is better than the God of Poverty. There are several incense temples, so I am afraid that he will not be tempted by the food he gives. Besides, there are five gods of plague. Incomplete security ensued.

People in the city also knew that there would be a plague after the flood, and they collected the carcasses of rotting animals for burial and sprinkled them with lime.

But these actions can only play a small role, and the real decision is in the hands of the God of Plague.

Wang Rui fell into deep thinking again. Recently, he really used his brain too much. He was thinking hard every day, either He Yunyi or the God of Plague.

Every time he subconsciously thought "It would be great if He Yunyi was here", he would shake his head violently.

Relying on others is not going to last long, you have to rely on yourself.

In the end, according to the summarization of multiple sources of information, there was only one way he could think of to deal with the God of Plague—to kill the source of infection.

The God of Plague releases the Plague Seed, which looks like a small bug. Not surprisingly, the Plague Seed bites the host that wants to parasitize, and then asks the host to infect others. One infects two, and slowly affects the entire group. Use point to surface.

Just watch and follow the God of Plague, and after he releases the Plague Seed, quickly isolate the host so that he does not infect others.

In doing so, finding the God of Plague and observing him quietly is the key.

Bai Qiyuan recognized the God of Plague, and had been wandering around, staring at the passers-by.

The God of Plague looks like an ordinary person in appearance, unlike some gods who have strange appearances that need to be disguised, so he usually does not transform into illusions, and comes out ostentatiously to spread the plague.

Suddenly, he saw a skinny old man walking on the mainland more than ten miles away from the main city. He was the God of Plague.

He immediately went back to bring Wang Rui and Huang Jiulang, and hid in the grass not far from the God of Plague.

The God of Plague was dressed as an old scholar, skinny, and looked as if he had been drained of all his nutrition by the disease. Wang Rui grinned secretly, and retreated in his heart. The God of Plague was just poor, and he would not die for a while. Deep, instant death.

Bai Qiyuan said in a low voice: "Why don't you forget it, this plague god is not easy to provoke, he has all kinds of plagues, not to mention pigs, cattle and sheep, maybe even dragons, although he has not released it, but it is not certain .”

Wang Rui was in a panic, and his survival instinct told him to turn around and leave, only to protect himself and his family, but the most basic conscience of human nature drove him not to let go.

People, it's such a contradiction. Sure enough, only real gods can treat everything as a humble dog.

"Huh Chi Huh Chi——" A pig suddenly jumped out of the grass by the side of the road and rushed to the God of Plague, he took a step back and smiled kindly at the pig: "Pig, you came just in time. "

He dug his ears and found a small black worm. He flicked it at the pig, and saw the worm fly into the pig's nostrils. He laughed when he saw it.

At this time, a farmer ran over and hit the pig with a wooden stick: "I told you to run around!" Seeing the plague god, he smiled and said, "Recently there was a flood and the pigsty was destroyed. Old man, this road is not easy to walk, is it alright if you are alone?"

The God of Plague said with a smile: "Take care of this pig, it is not normal now." While the farmer was at a loss, he walked forward with a smile on his face.

Seeing this, Wang Rui hurriedly said to Huang Jiulang, "Go and mark that pig, and buy it and the pigs in the same pen later."

Seeing that the God of Plague had walked a certain distance, Huang Jiulang flew to catch up with the farmer, pulled out a fox fur and threw it on the pig, before returning to Wang Rui's side.

Wang Rui stared intently at the poor god who continued to move forward, sweating in his heart, didn't you plant the plague seeds on the pigs, the task was completed, you should go back, why are you still leaving, a plague seed not enough?Our place has provoked you, how many plague seeds will we have to plant before we stop?

The God of Plague walked leisurely, appreciating the surrounding scenery from time to time. He came this time not only to spread the plague, but also to investigate the origin of the plague seed He Yunyi gave him. He found out whether the scorpion ghost was He is working for mandrills, and he is now going to find mandrills. As for Yangxin County, he has just spread a swine fever. He is going to meet another person and tell him to spread the swine fever.

A plague of livestock, and a plague of humans, can be regarded as the standard after the flood, impartial.

Suddenly, he stopped, and glanced back from the corner of his eye. Although he is a plague god, his greatest ability is to release plague seeds, and his other abilities are average, but it doesn't mean that he will follow him casually. He won't notice. He is really courageous.

Bai Qiyuan was stunned for a moment, and suddenly said no, he turned into a dragon, grabbed Wang Rui and Huang Jiulang, and flew onto Jiuxiao, but in the blink of an eye, the God of Plague had already appeared in front of him.

"What are you white dragon doing with me?"

Bai Qiyuan said vaguely: "I'm just walking around, so I'm following you." He blocked the two people in his hands with his paws.

The God of Plague didn't want to get to the bottom of it. Although he didn't understand the purpose of the white dragon, he discovered it. If he wasn't stupid, he should know that he couldn't follow him anymore: "I'll take it as a coincidence, but I don't want this kind of coincidence to happen again." With that said, he flew away.

When the God of Plague left, Bai Qiyuan said with lingering fear: "We've been discovered, so we can't follow him anymore."

Wang Rui wiped off his cold sweat: "You're right." When the plague god found out, he directly put the plague god on him, and he gave up his life.

Only by protecting yourself can you protect others. It is difficult to protect yourself, let alone others.

The original plan to follow the God of Plague and eliminate the Plague Seeds was cancelled.

"Anyway, the matter of the God of Plague can only be left to fate, and I have to go back to Sibaihe. After all, the new official can't leave for too long after taking office." Bai Qiyuan put Wang Rui and Huang Jiulang in a secluded place, and said: "Although it is winter No swallows, but if there is a new girl in Yumanlou, you can call me over."

"..." Wang Rui promised: "Thanks to your help this time, I will help you pay attention."

Bai Qiyuan nodded in satisfaction, and flew away.

Huang Jiulang breathed a sigh of relief. Although Bai Qiyuan was able to help, he did not deny that his character was too casual. When he was with Wang Rui, he couldn't help but worry about it.

Wang Rui didn't have nothing to gain, at least just now he saw the God of Plague put plague seeds on a pig, he and Huang Jiulang rushed to the farmer's house as quickly as possible, bid to buy the pigs in the pigsty, "cruelly" killed Finally, he dug a hole and filled it up, praying in his heart that this method could nip swine fever in the bud.

After finishing all this, it was already evening. After Huang Jiulang sent Wang Rui home, he also went back to Huangjiazhuang.

Wang Rui took off his clothes and burned them, and then washed himself carefully, for fear that there would be residual dirt.

The next day, the academy resumed classes, and Wang Rui arrived at the classroom early. The purpose of arriving early was to listen to all kinds of gossip. The sooner he came, the more he heard.

"You said that the flood came and went strangely this time. I think there are ghosts behind it."

"Someone saw a dragon on the day when the rain stopped. Anyway, it's really strange."

"That's not as strange as Lanruo Temple. I heard that including the disaster victims and monks, a total of hundreds of people have disappeared. In just a few days, everyone has escaped. But don't talk loudly. It is said that the magistrate will publish a list today to refute the rumors, saying that these are all It is false, no one is missing at all, please don’t spread rumors.”

"Then you still pass it on?!"

"Tsk, are you still listening?"

Afterwards the conversation turned into an argument, so Wang Rui didn't continue to listen. He frowned and pondered, he couldn't figure it out, he couldn't figure it out, wasn't grandma very good before, why did she start eating people when she made a big fuss? !Still eating so fiercely? !

What about Nie Xiaoqian?Wang Rui couldn't help but worry.

At this time Wei Xingxian came in with a sullen face, his expression was full of doubts like Wang Rui's, as if he had also encountered something unexplainable.

He came straight to Wang Rui and said straight to the point: "There is something I can only discuss with you."

"What's the matter, let's talk about it." Can only discuss it with him?Novelty, Wang Rui thought.

"You must still remember Nie Xiaoqian. There has been no news of their family since they left here. My father sent someone to investigate before the flood, but it was put on hold because of the flood. As a result, yesterday, there was a foreign scholar named Ning Caichen. Come to the Yamen and say that when he was resting at Lanruo Temple, he met a female ghost who claimed to be Nie Xiaoqian at night, saying that Nie Xuetai's family was gone, and she herself was trapped in Lanruo Temple, and asked my father to rescue her. You can taste these What do you think? Do you believe it?"

Ning Caichen?Nie Xiaoqian?Didn't Xiaoqian go home, why did she come to Lanruo Temple and become a ghost again?Is the plot really irreversible?

Wang Rui said firmly: "Of course I do!"

"But my father thinks this person is very suspicious and has already been locked up in prison. He suspects that he harmed Nie Xiaoqian's family, and the thief shouted "Stop the thief." Otherwise, he would not have described Nie Xiaoqian's appearance so accurately. Although I have doubts, I think What he said might be true."

"It must be true. If he had never seen Nie Xiaoqian's ghost, he would never have described her appearance. If he took a step back, it was Ning Caichen who did it. As an outsider, he would not be so stupid Come and take the initiative to report to the officer."

"But my father doesn't believe it. I think my father has restrained himself. If other county magistrates would have beaten him up and told him to tell the truth." Wei Xingxian thought for a while, then lowered his voice and said, "Wang Rui, how about Let's visit Lanruo Temple at night, Nie Xiaoqian and we know each other, if it's what Ning Caichen said, she will definitely show up when she sees us."

"..." Grandma is eating people there, he doesn't want to go, Wang Rui resolutely refuses: "Night detectives don't want it, haven't you heard that Lanruo Temple is eating people."

"Then what if what Ning Caichen said is true? Not only is he being wronged, but Nie Xiaoqian is also suffering. Let's save them. Think about who else can save them except you and me?" Wei Xingxian encouraged: "Do you want to save them?" Think about it, when Ma Xiao's roommate Meng Xing, we were going to kill everyone."

"I didn't kill the Quartet, I just killed a dog..."

"That's also a dog demon. Call Huang Jiulang and Ning Caichen can live a night. What are we three big men afraid of? When we meet Nie Xiaoqian's ghost and listen to her story, we will leave and share these witnesses with you." Tell my father, if he believes it, everything will be easy."

Wang Rui frowned: "This..."

"When did you become such a mother-in-law? Like a woman!"

Don't try to force me to submit by aggressive methods. In the face of life and death, I have a thick skin. Wang Rui sighed: "You look like it."

"You've changed!" Wei Xingxian walked away angrily, and sat back in his seat, not forgetting to glare at him.

Wang Rui wouldn't fall for the trap, so he shrugged and let him stare.

At this time, Huang Jiulang entered the classroom. Although Wei Xingxian wanted to invite him, he knew that Huang Jiulang would obey Wang Ruiyan. If Wang Rui didn't go, Huang Jiulang would not accompany him to the Lanruo Temple for adventure. Without help, he had no choice but to give up. He planned to go home and persuade his father to send a government servant to Lanruo Temple to investigate.

Wang Rui did not agree to Wei Xingxian's invitation because he had other plans.

If you want to save Nie Xiaoqian, why is it so troublesome to live in Lanruo Temple, because Nie Xiaoqian's ashes are buried under a poplar tree with a crow's nest in the backyard of Lanruo Temple.

"Nie Xiaoqian" is the only story Wang Rui is familiar with, and the predicted information finally comes into play.

And grandma seems to only come out to kill people at night, and she doesn't show up in broad daylight, so tomorrow at the academy, he will go to the back of Lanruo Temple to dig out Nie Xiaoqian's ashes jar and bring her home, so he can save her.

What Ning Caichen and Yan Chixia are all useless.

But he knew the key information of the plot in advance, and he couldn't let others discover it, otherwise he couldn't explain it, so he had to do it alone.

The next day, the academy was on holiday, so he woke up early, took only Wenshun with him, and went out.

At this time, He Yunyi was standing outside the gate of Wang's house, hesitating whether to go in. After rushing into the city, he found that there was no flood in the main city, and there was no poverty in the air. As for whether the plague god had come, Now that the plague has not broken out, he cannot judge.

But the Wang family's family is normal, so it can be seen that the owner of the mansion has not encountered any accidents.

He Yunyi, who rushed back with enthusiasm, felt a little like being poured cold water on him. It wasn't that Wang Rui had something to do, but he felt that if he was peaceful, then he seemed to have no meaning to him. He couldn't help sighing, really, What do you mean to him? !

Hmph, it doesn't count as anything, does it?

Ah, no, it counts as thighs, he will tell himself if he drank the ecstasy water.

At this moment, Wang Rui came out from the side door suddenly. He Yun saw him, and hurriedly hid himself, and even hid his breath.

Wang Rui passed him by, because he couldn't see him, he didn't react, but He Yunyi's eyes followed him all the time, he didn't change from the last time he parted, he still looked like a playboy.

At this time Wenshun hurriedly chased him out, showing a shovel: "Master, do you think this one will work?"

"It's fine if you think it's okay, anyway, it's you who digs." Wang Rui said with a smile: "Get in the car."

He Yun was puzzled, didn't you go to the academy with a shovel instead of a book bag?Are you out of business again?After hesitating for a while, when Wang Rui's carriage drove away, he followed.

Seeing that the carriage left the city all the way and came directly to Lanruo Temple in the outskirts, He Yunyi couldn't figure out what he was doing here.

Suddenly, He Yun saw the big locust tree in front of the door, and couldn't help being taken aback. Why didn't he find such a demon tree in this place before?Exuding a billowing monster aura, I'm afraid it has hurt many people.

He looked at Wang Rui worriedly, what are you doing here, do you know it's dangerous here?

But seeing Wang Rui being cautious, looking around from time to time, he seemed to know that this place is not peaceful, so it was even more strange, knowing that there are tigers in the mountains, he prefers to go to the tiger mountain?

He followed Wang Rui and Wen Shun all the way to the backyard of Lanruo Temple, where there are rows of poplar trees. Wang Rui kept looking up at their branches, and saw a poplar tree with a crow's nest on it. He said to Wen Shun: "Dig!"

Wen Shun took two breaths into his palm, grabbed the shovel and shoveled it fiercely, and soon the shovel hit a hard object.

"Be careful, don't break it." Wenshun dug out a jar and stroked the dust off it: "What's in it?"

Sure enough, Wang Rui smiled smugly, knowing the plot is cool: "Don't ask, let's go."

When Wang Rui got into the car with the urn in his arms, the big pagoda tree rustled eeriely, as if resenting them.

After returning to his bedroom, Wang Rui sent the maids away, lowered the windows and the heavy veils to make the room dark, and then knocked on the urn: "Nie Xiaoqian, can you hear me? You are safe now, can I come out and see you?"

He Yun was surprised, who is this Nie Xiaoqian, let alone the fox dragon and bird, now this is a female ghost?Aren't you afraid of ghosts?

After waiting for a while, Wang Rui suddenly heard: "Thank you benefactor, you saved Xiaoqian again, please accept Xiaoqian's bow." Nie Xiaoqian had already appeared in front of her.

When Wang Rui saw her, he felt uncomfortable. It turned out that she was really dead: "No need to pray, get up quickly."

He Yun looked at Wang Rui and then at the female ghost. Are they familiar with each other?

"Your benefactor must ask why I died here..." Nie Xiaoqian said with tears in her eyes, "I really don't know how to say it."

Wang Rui comforted: "Don't worry, don't be afraid, just think about it slowly, I will send someone to call Weizhi County and the others in a while, let you tell your grievances yourself, and let him get justice for you."

"...I have already personally revenged myself, and now I am an evil ghost." Nie Xiaoqian lamented: "...Uncle Wei will probably blame me when he sees me... I am like this, working for tigers, not only for people in the world If the officials want to blame me, even if I go to the underworld, King Yama will not spare me."

"No, it's only right and proper for you to avenge your parents. You should also be called a heroine in the world. Although there are bad ones in the Ten Temples of Yama, there are also good ones." In the Town God's Temple, after you meet them in Weizhi County, I will go to the Town God's Temple to offer something, and ask them to come to a ghost messenger to take you away. reunion."

The best ending Wang Rui can think of is that Nie Xiaoqian re-enters reincarnation.

He Yunyi was listening, and looked at Wang Rui in surprise. It seemed that during his absence, he had become able to take charge of his own affairs, and he spoke clearly and logically when facing this female ghost.

"Reincarnation..." Nie Xiaoqian thought, indeed reincarnation is the place where female ghosts should go.

At this time, the wind blew the window edge, and there was a sound, Nie Xiaoqian was startled: "Could it be that grandma is chasing you?"

"Don't be afraid, no matter how powerful grandma is, she is still a tree, and the tree will not move. I have already thought of a way to deal with him." Wang Rui smiled complacently.

He Yunyi was curious, what can you do?

"The God of Plague entered the city a few days ago, but I was discovered when I followed him, and I don't know who he sowed the plague seeds to later, so after a few days or just two days, the plague will break out in the city. From time to time, I asked my fox friend to give a dream to some big shots, saying that the branches and roots of the big pagoda tree outside Lanruo Temple can prevent the plague. out."

Wang Rui is very confident about this, and later generations will frantically snap up some medicines to prevent and treat diseases, let alone in such a panic atmosphere now.

No matter how powerful grandma is, she can only be tortured in the face of the vast ocean of people's war. Tens of millions of people dig her up with shovels, and if they don't believe they won't kill her.

Both He Yunyi and Nie Xiaoqian showed surprised expressions, especially He Yunyi, who said that Shibie treated each other with admiration for three days, and after only seeing each other for a few days, he suddenly found that Wang Rui seemed to have left him and was living a good life.

Could it be that you relied too much on him before?Now you can only rely on yourself, but grow up?

He Yun wondered if he didn't even have the last value of hugging his thigh anymore.

He is frustrated, forget it, you can live on your own, don't bother!Turned around and walked out.

But when I got to the door, I suddenly thought, come here, how can I do nothing, anyway, there is no loss if I give him a secret technique, and it will be broken when it blooms. It's nothing, if I leave at that time, I really have nothing to worry about.

Not long after, Wang Rui hid Nie Xiaoqian's ashes urn, left the bedroom, and walked to the study.

As soon as He Yun followed behind him, he stopped him as soon as he entered the door. Looking at Wang Rui as if time had stood still, He Yun approached him slowly as soon as he remembered the unfinished kiss, but at the last moment, he stopped. After making a move, he laughed wryly at himself and said, really, what was he thinking.

According to Xuan Yuanzi's secret technique, he finished casting a curse on him, and only waited seven days to see the result.

At the moment when Wang Rui was able to move, he was a little inexplicable, and he couldn't tell what was strange. He shook his head, sat at the desk, and wrote something.

He Yun looked at him with "cold eyes", there are still seven days left, let's see how you can jump around.
