How to break into Liaozhai

As soon as Wang Rui and He Yun came out of the gambling street, they found a place to eat on the other street. There was no private room, so they made do and sat down in the lobby on the first floor.

While waiting for the food to be served, He Yunyi sized Wang Rui up, with novelty in his eyes: "How do you know that Su Zhi can win?"

"Secret." Wang Rui lowered his head and played with the jade pendant on his waist, deliberately showing off: "I will take this secret to the grave."

It was originally a witty remark, but after finishing speaking, both of them froze for a moment, He Yun snorted, "Stop talking nonsense, how could you die?"

Wang Rui pursed his lips and didn't speak, but he thought sourly in his heart, but if you don't become a fairy, you will die too, it's just that you live a longer life, and you will die after 800 years.

He knew that the two of them deliberately did not touch the key to becoming a fairy, and now they basically have a happy day, just live one day, and keep pushing this issue to tomorrow, and they don't know how to avoid the inevitable day. what to do.

They said it was a trip, but it was really similar to elopement. Isn’t elopement just like this? They only care about their feelings and ignore the rest. Then, with the tempering of life, various contradictions surfaced, and finally turned into tragedy and fell apart.

He rested his chin and sighed in his heart, He Yunyi also meant the same thing at the beginning, let's try to be together first, and the two of them will break up when they can't live anymore.

He Yun was very taboo about Wang Rui's words just now: "I won't let you die, and don't mention it in the future." His name is not listed in the life and death book. up.

Holding a chopstick between his upper lip, Wang Rui pouted and said, "Even if I won't die, I will grow old." After speaking, he glanced at him secretly.

If it is necessary, put it in the daily conversation and pretend to mention it unintentionally, so as to prevent it from being overwhelmed by various difficult problems in the future.

He Yun frowned, and turned Wang Rui's sneaky gaze back sharply: "Do you think I've taken a fancy to your appearance?"

Wang Rui said with a sour face: "No matter what you think, anyway, when I am in my seventies and eighties, I will definitely squat down in a corner of the mountain. It is impossible for me to be lingering with you. If we go out, people will have to ask you, who is this old man?" ? It’s too hard for an old man to take a handful of old bones out to toss.”

He Yun didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and there was a subtle warmth in his heart. You thought about it for a long time, and even thought about decades later: "Whether a person lives a long life or a short life, it doesn't depend on his appearance. If you only want to look good, it's too easy. "

"Really?" Wang Rui was overjoyed. If he could not grow old, he would be willing to live less than ten years.

He Yun nodded slowly.

Sure enough, it is good to have a mana boyfriend, but as soon as this thought came out, Wang Rui couldn't help reminding himself that it is better to put feelings first, and words like "hugging thighs" and "good" will be used less frequently in the future. Think, let alone talk nonsense, He Yunyi is quite taboo.

At this time, Xiao Er brought wine and food, put them down one by one, and retreated.

After dinner, Wang Rui stood up, waved his hand at He Yun, and said "very generously", "You must sit still, I will pay the bill! I made money today and I will treat you! You rush to pay with me, It's just unreasonable."

He Yunyi was amused by him, and cooperated with his "performance": "Okay, you pay for the money you make."

Wang Rui called for Xiao Er, counted the price of the meal, saw that there was a coin in change, and tipped it casually, and the meal was considered complete.

When the two started to walk out, two dejected diners dressed as family servants walked in. When they saw He Yunyi, their eyes lit up and they whispered to each other.

He Yunyi heard the two of them whispering: "It's a Taoist priest, go ask him if he can catch demons."

The other said: "You ask, you lost in the boxing game, it was agreed that you will ask."

He Yunyi acted as if he hadn't heard, and continued to walk his own way. Since he had something to ask for, maybe he had to hurry up and ask.

Wait a minute, it seems that when he met Wang Rui, he took the initiative to talk to him... um...

At this time, one of the servants plucked up the courage and came up: "Master Dao, that, that, can you catch ghosts and eliminate demons?"

Without waiting for He Yunyi to speak, Wang Rui said first: "Today we rest." He won a sum of money in gambling today, so there is no need to ask He Yunyi to go out to hunt ghosts for money.

Since Wang Rui was so "distressed" about himself, He Yun said, "Go find someone else."

Hearing this, the two servants scratched their heads and scratched their heads: "We have invited all the Taoist priests and monks in this city, and nothing can do anything. Seeing your strange face, I thought that you, a foreign Taoist priest, might be able to catch demons." , so it doesn't work?"

These few words reveal a serious message, that is, all the Taoist priests in the city are useless, that is to say, this monster must be quite powerful.

Meeting him today was due to fate, and he was asked to slay demons and eliminate demons. He Yunyi asked helplessly, "Tell me, what kind of monster is it?"

Seeing that He Yun wanted to take care of this matter, Wang Rui didn't say much, but thought in his heart that wearing this Taoist uniform is a lot of trouble, when can he take it off?

He was startled, if he took off his Taoist uniform, wouldn't he even leave the Taoist school?It's better not to think about this kind of thought now.

"Master Dao, what kind of monster is it? We can't tell now. Come with us, our master is at home." The two servants led the way happily, winked and smiled at each other, and finally found another monster No matter whether the Taoist priest can get rid of the demon or not, at least he has fulfilled the master's order, so he doesn't have to be punished.

They arrived in front of a huge mansion, and after the notification, they went all the way to the living room. Wang Rui saw that the house and courtyard of this house were quite large, and he presumably belonged to a wealthy family.

When they entered, there was already a rich man dressed like a member waiting in the living room.

When I saw He Yunyi, I looked him up and down, showing a slightly disappointed expression, presumably because he felt that the other party was too young, and there was a gap between him and the old Taoist with profound morals in his impression.

But soon, he squeezed out a charming smile: "My surname is Huang, Daoist, please sit down, this young master...please sit down too."

As soon as He Yun sat down with Wang Rui, he stopped talking nonsense: "Is there a monster in the house?"

"Yes! It's scary!" Huang Yuanwai patted his chest and said.

"Have you seen it?" Wang Rui asked.

"That's not true, but my servants saw it and were frightened to death immediately. It's like this. My father passed away last year. Two years before his death, he built a small stone building at home, and the meals were served every day. Every day, he was sent in by someone, and he never left. Although I felt strange, but as a son, I couldn't interfere with my father's decision, so the old man lived there until his death.

Before my father passed away, he told me to swear to God that I would deliver food every day like he did when he was alive.I dare not disobey my father's order, after he left, I still asked people to bring food in every day..."

Having said that, he sighed sadly.

He Yun said together: "Then you held back your curiosity and took a peek?"

"...Can you not be curious, the food is sent in and eaten clean every day, who is eating it? Could it be that my father is still alive? But I watched him be buried with my own eyes.

Even if he is not buried, he will live as long as he is alive, and there is no need to hide it from me as a son, just eat in a dignified way.Later, I couldn't bear it, and went in to deliver a meal in person.

To be honest, after the small stone building was built, I never went in. It was the first time I went in. Everything inside was made of stone, including tables, chairs and washbasins.

And the dinner plate sent in the previous day had already been eaten up, and it was properly placed on the stone table.

After I put down the food, I hid aside and watched. In the middle of the night, I became more and more afraid, and I couldn't stand it any longer, so I ran out.

Afterwards, a bold servant was also curious about this matter, and said that he was willing to go in and guard for me, and he only needed to give him ten taels of silver, and I agreed.

It turned out that he was found dead in the small stone building the next day. Since then, I have not allowed anyone to enter.

But if I didn’t bring food in, the servants at home said that they would hear wild beasts screaming in the middle of the night... So I sent some bold people to secretly deliver food in during the day, and ran away after sending it in.

It dragged on like this. During the period, many Taoist priests and monks were found. Either they passed by overnight and found nothing, or they were scared and fled. They didn't want to say a whole sentence. "

Huang Yuanwai sent a sad look to He Yunyi: "What can I do? Now everyone in the city knows that my house is haunted. Recently, I invited people to fight crickets at home, but no one wanted to come."

Wang Rui searched for the stories about the strange stone house in his mind, but there was nothing there. Sure enough, the "Zhizhi" just now was the end of his luck. There are too many stories in the world of Liaozhai, and he has nothing at all. Know.

He Yunyi said indifferently: "You prepare the food and wine now, bring them into the stone house, and let me and this young master eat and drink."

Huang Yuanwai asked cautiously: "Don't you need to set up a Taoist altar?" He was very happy when he got a negative answer, and saved a lot of expenses. He likes to go straight to the point and catch monsters with simple outfits. It doesn't matter whether it succeeds or not, it is a failure. , the loss is also small.

He hurriedly ordered the servants to prepare wine and food, and then led He Yunyi and Wang Rui to the stone house in the backyard.

The small stone building is built in a corner of the backyard and is made of blue stones.

After walking in, it is indescribably cool and cool, which can be called a good place to cool off the heat. The furnishings in the house are all made of stone, as Huang Yuanwai said. When Wang Rui saw the stone bed, he thought of the cold stone bed that the old man slept on before he died. , It's too bad for the body.

Huang Yuanwai looked left and right, and suddenly pointed at the table: "Look, the food delivered yesterday has been eaten up."

Sure enough, there were a few empty plates on the stone table, and the food was quite clean. There was not even vegetable soup left, and they were licked clean.

If Huang Yuanwai hadn't pointed it out, Wang Rui would have thought it was a new dish.

He Yun looked around the room and said: "The two of us can just stay here, you can leave, and just ask the servants to bring in the food later."

Huang Yuanwai acted like an amnesty, so he ran away quickly. Anyway, this Taoist priest and scholar are foreigners, so even if they died, there would be no trouble.

He Yunyi asked Wang Rui, "Are you cold?"

"...a little..."

He took off his robe and put it on him, Wang Rui smiled a little embarrassedly: "You should be too kind to me."

He Yunyi saw that the flower bone on his shoulders seemed to have grown a bit, raised his eyebrows in satisfaction, and smiled at the corner of his mouth: "You are not as easy to catch cold as I am."

At this time, some servants walked in tremblingly, put down the dishes, turned around and ran away, the remaining few behaved in the same way, put down the dishes, and walked away.

Wang Rui had just eaten, and he would lose his appetite. He said regretfully, "If I had known someone would entertain me, I wouldn't have spent money to eat by myself."

"The meaning of your treat today is beyond comparison with these wine and meat."

Wang Rui curled his lips and said with a smile: "It's true. I'll go to the gambling house on the street tomorrow. If I see Cheng Ming and his Xiao Zhizhi again, I'll buy them to win and make another fortune."

The two chatted and laughed, just drank some wine and killed the time, leaving all the dishes on the table for the monster.

After dark, Wang Rui rested his chin and looked around boredly: "What a strange stone house, why did you build such a stone house?"

"Of course it is to prevent the ghost energy from leaking out. If the ghost energy is soaring, it is very likely to be discovered by passing experts."

Wang Rui regained his energy all of a sudden: "You said there is a ghost here?" He has been encountering harmless monsters before, and his vigilance has relaxed a lot. Compared with monsters, he is still more afraid of ghosts.

"Not only are there, but also enough. But don't be afraid, you won't be affected by wearing my clothes." He Yun glanced at a floor tile in the center of the room: "Here is a passage leading to the underworld."

People with good morals go to the underworld, and generally open a passage at random, and it doesn’t need to last long. Such a passage that can last for a long time only exists in the city god, because it needs to send souls to the underworld all year round.

This is obviously not the Town God's Temple, this passage is too weird.

At this moment, He Yunyi suddenly heard the floor tiles moving, so he took Wang Rui's hand and made them invisible.

Wang Rui saw the floor tiles slowly moving away, and suddenly a cool and bone-chilling air gushed out, and the temperature in the stone room dropped a lot in an instant. If it wasn't for He Yunyi's Taoist robe, he must have shivered.

From the removed floor tiles, a beast's head slowly crawled out. It was said to be a beast's head, but it was not accurate. If I tried to put it bluntly, it looked like a fusion of several wild beasts. The mouth of a jackal and the eyes of a tiger, like a tiger and like a wolf .

After the animal head was exposed, it was followed by a human body. A monster with a beast head and a human body stood in the middle of the room.

Wang Rui opened his mouth wide in astonishment. He had seen this monster before. In order to trip Jinse, he ran to the battlefield of King Ning's rebellion to collect lonely souls. He saw such a monster sucking human brains.

Is that the one?Or another one?

At this time, the monster walked to the table, facing the table full of food, opened its mouth, exposed its white fangs, stuck out its scarlet tongue, and began to eat and chew.

When it was eating, there was a bang, and when it looked, the floor tiles had been moved back, and there was a Taoist priest standing behind him with an unhappy expression.

It froze for a moment, and rushed over to try to move it away again, but the moment it touched the floor tiles, a cluster of fires ignited in its hands, causing it to howl in pain.

He Yun drew a few times in the air with one hand, and a rune made of white light struck towards it, clinging to it tightly, melting the stinky blood all over the ground.

It rolled a few times on the spot, but it didn't help, and it didn't take long for it to be motionless, only twitching.

Wang Rui's understanding of He Yunyi's way of doing things became clearer and clearer. If he could do it, he would not talk nonsense. He could answer questions with only one breath left, and the second breath would be redundant.

Seeing that the monster hadn't breathed in much, He Yun walked over and asked in a cold voice, "What are you?"

"Hehe, you... kill me."

He Yun thought for a while: "Okay." He pulled out the long sword in his sleeve and swung it towards it.

"Wait... wait a minute..." It hurriedly stopped: "No..."

Before the word "Yao" could be uttered, it was buried in the throat of the falling animal head.

He Yunyi waited coldly, and not long after, he saw the soul of a wild beast floating out of the monster's body. The head was still the same, but the body was no longer human, but an animal that looked like a wolf and a tiger.

Seeing He Yunyi, the soul of this beast couldn't help but tremble, its body was dead, but its soul still had to face him.

He Yun asked again and again: "What the hell are you? The death of the physical body is only the first step, and you can still destroy both body and spirit."

"...don't...don't...my parents are tigers and wolves. They gave birth to a freak like me. Even if I practice, my spirit root is the worst... I can't do it for hundreds of years... Later I got After being instructed by an expert, he allowed me to connect to the body of his apprentice and continue to practice... After connecting, the progress of cultivation has indeed been much faster..."

He Yunyi had a complicated expression: "Who is that person? Why is there a passage leading to the underworld here?"

"I haven't seen that person's appearance... but the old man Huang of this family called him the head of the sect. Later, I was sent here to guard the passage and prevent the ghosts from the underworld from coming out." The monster said: "It was old man Huang before. Fortunately, he told his son to continue to feed me after he died, otherwise I would have starved to death. One day, I climbed up and found someone hiding in the dark. He was frightened to death when he saw me, but I didn’t Eat his meat, I still want to practice, so, so don't kill me..."

"Send you to guard the passage? Was this passage dug by the so-called door owner? What is he going to do?" He Yunyi asked.

"I don't know, I really don't know! I'm only responsible for guarding this place, and preventing ghosts and wild ghosts from coming out of it, but in the past two years, no ghost has found this place and wants to come out of it."

If it is not drilled out, it means that the passage is extremely secretive, and it is difficult for even ghosts to find the entrance to the underworld.

He Yunyi vaguely felt that this would be a very troublesome matter, he kept shaking his head and sighing, he is no different now, he doesn't even want to touch this kind of thing.

Thinking of this, with a wave of his hand, the floor tiles moved away, and with another wave of his hand, he pushed the soul of the beast into it, and then began to read in a low voice.

Wang Rui listened to the words in his mouth, and instantly the whole stone house shook, as if it was about to collapse. He stood up hurriedly, and walked to He Yunyi quickly. No matter what happened, it was definitely the safest to be with him .

As soon as He Yun looked at him, he felt very happy, he is so good.

At this time, a piece of stone brick from the roof fell off, and was quickly sucked into the tunnel. Then, the stone bricks that made up the house were attracted by a powerful force, and flew into the tunnel continuously. In the blink of an eye, finally A piece was also sucked in.

The land was bare, and the stone house disappeared.

At this time, the entrance of the tunnel was also gone, and it was no different from the loess ground elsewhere. He Yun was worried, facing the ground, and drew a talisman in the air with his finger.

After all this was done, Yuanwai Huang, who heard the rumble of the stone house collapsing just now, ran over and stretched his neck: "Where's the house?"

He Yun said together: "From now on, there will be no ghosts here."

Member Huang wanted to ask about the details of catching ghosts, but seeing the strong aura of the young Taoist priest, he was too frightened to ask further questions, and said with a false smile, "That's great, it's still early, and I'll prepare wine and food for you two."

He Yun said: "No need, I want to know if your father joined any sects or practiced some kind of spells when he was there?"

If the father practiced, the son should inherit something, but this fat-headed Huang Yuanwai doesn't look like a practitioner at all.

Sure enough, Huang Yuanwai shook his head: "I haven't heard the old man mention it, but the old man has a bad temper, and I dare not take the initiative to say a few words to him for a year. What's the matter? This ghost has something to do with my father?"

He Yunyi didn't know how to answer. Seeing his solemn expression, Wang Rui felt uncomfortable. Really, there is something troublesome, why is it so difficult to live a peaceful life between two people? !

Out of the corner of his eye, He Yun saw that the color of the flower bone on Wang Rui's shoulder seemed to be darker, and he couldn't help wondering, why did you suddenly change when nothing happened?

At this time, I heard the servant rushing over and shouting: "Master, it's not good, there is a team of officials outside the door!"

Huang Yuanwai heard it, and was taken aback: "What are the officials doing at our house in the middle of the night?!" Their family is also a well-known figure in the city.

Before he could react, he saw a team of officials rushing in with torches. In addition to Huang Yuanwai's original servants, a group of people squeezed the small courtyard tightly.

Huang Yuanwai said: "My lord, my family has always been law-abiding. Why did you come here late at night? Is there some misunderstanding?"

As soon as He Yun saw that it was Huang Yuan's family's private matter, he was not interested in listening to it. He planned to leave with Wang Rui, but when he saw the head of the official, he ignored the others and stared at Wang Rui, and took out a picture. The graphs start to look at each other.

"That's right, it's him! Take it for me!" The person in the picture of the reward posted above was seen winning hundreds of taels of silver in a gambling house today, and then someone saw him enter this alley, and investigated By this time, it was finally confirmed that he was at Huang Yuanwai's house.

Wang Rui hadn't been so dazed for a long time: "Me?" He didn't even use his real name now, what trouble could he cause, and there was such a big fight, people who didn't know thought he had killed someone.

"It's him, the murder suspect!" The officer yelled.

Eh?Really a murderer?Facing the yamen servants rushing towards him, Wang Rui instinctively took a step back, but the next moment, those clerks stopped moving, maintaining their vicious culling movements.

The people in the courtyard, except him and He Yunyi, did not move, only the torch was still burning fiercely.

He Yun said angrily: "Murder? Who wronged you?"

Wang Rui said weakly: "Really, am I that much like a murderer? Fan Shiniang died and I was required to bear it. Now there is another murder charge. I really can't bear it. Look at this posture, wanted Many orders have been issued, and if I don’t change my face, I’m afraid I won’t be able to escape.”

The most important thing is that I don't know if his identity has been discovered. If he is known as Wang Rui from Yangxin County, he might go to catch the paper man or arrest his parents.

Even sitting is no joke.

With He Yunyi's temper, he felt that the Black Mountain old demon might harm Wang Rui, and he couldn't bear it, let alone someone who actually came to harm him, and the three corpses immediately jumped out of anger.

If Wang Rui was wanted, they would not be able to continue their journey in a fair manner. Besides, how could they bear to suffer innocent injustice? !

Wang Rui was suffering from cramps, and closed his eyes in pain. He said in pain, "I'm afraid they will arrest my parents if I run away like this... But if I don't run away, if I go to the case, I don't know if I will be judged by a stupid judge." My punishment..."

At this moment, I felt He Yunyi's tap on my left shoulder, and I glanced at it casually, and it didn't matter, my eyes widened instantly.

Because there is still a self standing in front of him: "He, He Yunyi?"

He Yun said together: "Of course it's me, who else could it be?!"

"You have become me...do you want to?"

He Yunyi shrunk Wang Rui down, put it in his sleeve, bowed his head and smiled at him, "I'll go to meet that stupid official in your place, and see if his mind is filled with stalks, and he dares to wrong you."

Wang Rui was instantly moved, He Yunyi, you are really my golden thigh.

Ah bah, I just said that I will not use such words in the future, he patted his cheek lightly.

However, having said that, he treats him so well, what can he, a mortal, give him in return.
