believe your evil
Chapter 23
There must be something wrong with the peach tree in Chen Hui's backyard, there is no doubt about it.
Since I didn’t see anything during the day, maybe there will be something at night——Sheng Lian always remembered that he once saw peach petals in the dirt outside the wall of Chen Hui’s backyard, and when he thought about the bare tree trunk, he felt that the tree in the backyard might be in danger. not simple.
As a result, Shen Ma didn't come back from a walk until midnight, and his mobile phone couldn't get through, so Sheng Lian could only look for Ji Jiuyou alone, and he didn't forget to bring the paper rabbit in his pocket.
Knocking on the door, I saw Ji Jiuyou's gloomy and unhappy face, as if someone was not afraid to offend the big brother of You Ming.
With an innocent expression of "I don't know anything, nothing happened", Sheng Lian looked at Ji Jiuyou at the door, and said in a low voice, "Mr. Ji, do you want to go to the backyard of Chen Hui's house to see that peach tree?"
Ji Jiuyou let out a "hmm", but looked at Sheng Lian, and asked without beginning or end, "Where is the rabbit?"
Sheng Lian took out the paper-cut rabbit from his pocket, spread it out in the palm of his hand, and replied, "I have it," and said earnestly, "Of course I have to. You gave it to me specially, Mr. Ji."
Ji Jiuyou took another look at Sheng Lian, and said, "Don't you like this rabbit?"
Sheng Lian smiled: "How could it be, this little guy was purified by me, and he is so obedient, of course I like it, I really like it."
Unlike cities full of traffic and lights everywhere, there are no street lights in many places in Dongshan, and when you go to remote places, you will be full of shadows.
Sheng Lian and Ji Jiuyou walked upstream along the river, with a long river on one side and residential houses on the other, and then Sheng Lian suddenly realized something - he and Shen Ma were walking on the front street, which was a matter of course They thought that the side facing the street was the front yard, and the side facing the river was the back yard. They wondered why the front yard was so small and the back yard was so big, but maybe it was because of their preconceived notion that the side facing the river was the front yard. The street behind is the backyard.
When Sheng Lian thought about it, he suddenly became enlightened, but suddenly realized that there is no difference between the front yard and the back yard, and it has nothing to do with what they want to investigate.
Ten minutes later, the two finally reached the door of Chen Hui's small courtyard.
Sheng Lian raised his neck, his line of sight was blocked by the high wall, he couldn't see why, he stood beside Ji Jiuyou, and said in a low voice: "Didn't you say it was interesting to see that peach tree during the day, why is it so interesting?" Fa, Your Highness, let me see and see."
Ji Jiuyou tilted his head: "What did you call me?"
Sheng Lian took it for granted: "Your Highness." But he thought in his heart, what's the problem? That day by the mirror lake, the civil servants in the entire Youming Senluo Temple knelt and shouted "Your Highness lives in harmony with the sky", and then suddenly, he couldn't do it by himself. Fortunately, he is an envoy of God. If he is really an envoy of God, then he doesn't need to be called His Highness Ji Jiuyou, he should be called "son".
Of course, this son is not good at half a dime, just a brat.
But suddenly, Sheng Lian felt that his footsteps were off the ground and his body lost its center of gravity. He subconsciously stretched out his hand to help him, but found a piece of chest. He raised his eyes in astonishment, and met Ji Jiuyou's raised eyebrows and somewhat unruly eyes: "You called me wrong. .”
Sheng Lian silently moved his hand on Ji Jiuyou's chest, and nestled it calmly in Princess Ji Jiuyou's arms: "Then what should I call you?" Or should I call you Mr. Ji as before?Or the devil?
Ji Jiuyou tiptoed, and leaped onto the wall of Chen Hui's house like a swallow, and his voice fell steadily along with his steps: "Jiuyou, you should call me Jiuyou."
When Sheng Lian met Ji Jiuyou for the first time, he used to call "Jiuyou" familiarly, but at that time it was to make friends, but now he said "Jiuyou" silently between his lips and tongue, and suddenly felt very smooth, feeling like He had really pronounced this short two-character name thousands of times.
But without waiting for him to reflect deeply, following Ji Jiuyou's eyes and looking into the yard, Sheng Lian suddenly froze——
The branches of the bare peach trees that I have seen during the day are now full of pink and white peach blossoms. Even if there is no light, the blooming flowers are amazing, but summer is in the sky, spring is no longer, and the peach blossoms have already passed. How can such a gorgeous peach blossom bloom in the season?
"How come? Didn't you see a single leaf during the day, let alone a flower bud? Where did the flowers come from?" Sheng Lian asked in a low voice.
But Ji Jiuyou said "sit firmly", and slowly fell from the wall into the courtyard with Sheng Lian in his arms. There was no wind, and Ji Jiuyou's flying body did not form much air convection when he landed, but the petals of the peach blossoms fell off one after another. Falling, as if being swept up by the wind, it is eloquent, and it falls down in a piece, which is beautiful.
Now that they are all on the ground, Sheng Lian is really embarrassed to nestle in Ji Jiuyou's arms with peace of mind, but he tried to jump off but failed, because the one holding him did not let go of his consciousness at all.
Sheng Lian could only cough and reminded: "Mr. Ji, okay, I'll come down and walk by myself."
Ji Jiuyou's smirk sounded in his ears: "What did you call me?"
Sheng Lian thought for a while, and said "son" in his heart, but replied sincerely: "Jiuyou."
Only then did Ji Jiuyou let go and put him down.
As soon as Sheng Lian landed on the ground, he interrupted again temporarily. He didn't care about the business to be done at the moment, but said to Ji Jiuyou: "Everyone is an adult, so let's be more mature in doing things. Is this interesting?"
Ji Jiuyou's eyes fell on the peach tree in front of him, he snorted, and said quietly: "When you pressed the rabbit's head on the table and rubbed it, did you think that you were a mature adult man?"
It turned out that he had guessed it all, so let's go to each other, Sheng Lian then turned his head, and his eyes fell on the peach tree in front of him, and he was stunned again after seeing this.
The peach tree is still a peach tree, and the peach blossoms are still peach blossoms, but the peach tree in front of him is missing a big piece, and the missing piece looks like a person.
Sheng Lian froze for a moment, suppressed his voice, and said in astonishment: "Could it be the peach tree spirit?"
Ji Jiuyou's eyes fell on the two-story building behind the peach tree, and he snorted: "What's so strange about monsters, if it's a peach tree spirit, can it be called interesting?"
After Ji Jiuyou finished speaking, he walked around the peach tree and walked towards the sliding door. Sheng Lian followed. When he arrived at the door, he found that the sliding door was unlocked. Listen carefully, and there was a woman's voice faintly in the room, which seemed to be There was a quarrel, so the sound came out from the door.
Ji Jiuyou directly raised his hand and opened the sliding door and walked in. Sheng Lian followed without thinking.
The voice came from the second floor. When the two walked in and walked around to the stairs, the voice became clear immediately.
A young woman's voice rolled down the stairs clearly: "Ah Hui, just trust me, pack up your things and go, tonight."
Chen Hui's voice followed: "Stop talking, how can I leave you alone. Don't be suspicious, the three people in the family have been helping the company buy peaches for a few days, and I will call to ask I have been to that company, it’s true, I didn’t lie to me, you don’t want to think that there is something wrong with the other party.”
The young woman said: "No, it's not as simple as you think. Those three people searched the house today. Some of them went to the room on the second floor, and some went to the backyard. There was a man, a man... "The voice trembled as he said, "I can't describe it. As soon as he entered the yard, I felt chills all over my body. Just believe me once. Come on, don't be implicated by me, just leave me alone I have lived for more than 20 years, I have enough money, really, you should go now."
The woman broke down in tears while talking, Chen Hui patiently comforted her, and kept coaxing her softly. Sheng Lian didn't hear anything else, but she heard that Chen Hui had a very good relationship with the woman who came out of the peach tree trunk.
But at this critical moment of eavesdropping, Sheng Lian's cell phone rang suddenly, and the ringtone was so clear that even a half-deaf person could hear the sound.
"Who?" Chen Hui upstairs shouted vigilantly, and soon there was the sound of footsteps stepping on the stairs.
Sheng Lian hurriedly took out his cell phone, and was about to press it, but found that the caller was actually Shen Ma.
Ji Jiuyou calmly said, "Go ahead." He walked upstairs.
Sheng connected to the phone, raised his gaze, and saw the shadow of Chen Hui falling on the wall of the stairs when he went downstairs at the corner of the stairs. On the phone, Shen Ma hurriedly said: "It's Chen Hui's fiancee! The one hidden on the second floor The woman in question is Chen Hui's fiancée who died unexpectedly more than 20 years ago!"
At the corner of the stairs, Ji Jiuyou and Chen Hui, who looked frightened and apprehensive, faced each other. Another sound of hurried footsteps came from upstairs, and the face of a young woman suddenly appeared in everyone's sight.
Shen Ma's words appeared at the same time as the woman in sight, and Sheng Lian's scalp immediately became hairy.
However, the woman ran downstairs in a hurry, stood in front of Chen Hui with a crying voice, and kept urging the man behind her: "Hurry up! Hurry up!"
Ji Jiuyou: "The fearless struggle is nothing but a waste of energy. If I were your fiancé, I would go downstairs honestly and bring three more cups of hot tea."
As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Hui hugged the young woman from behind and comforted him: "Xiaoyun, it's okay, I'm here, I'm the one to take care of everything."
-
When a cup of warm tea was served in front of him again, Sheng Lian didn't see the young woman's appearance clearly. The living room light was on, but she was standing outside the living room door in the dark, with only a side face.
Ji Jiuyou said three cups of hot tea, Chen Hui really poured out three cups, put down the last cup, and sat across from the sofa.
But no one moved the teacup again.
Chen Hui lowered his eyes and was silent for a while, then turned his head to look in the direction of his fiancée Sun Xiaoyun, and sighed.
But Ji Jiuyou said slowly: "She is your deceased fiancée."
The secret that had been kept for 22 years was revealed, and Chen Hui's face was pale, but perhaps because Ji Jiuyou and Sheng Lian did not act violently, the loyal Chen Hui also chose to face the moment when the secret was revealed in a silent and calm way .
Chen Hui said: "Yes, she is my fiancée." As he spoke, he rubbed his hands and looked up, "Who are you guys? Taoist priests? The kind that exorcise ghosts and demons."
Sheng Lian remembered that the routine questioning was to reveal his identity, and was about to take out his ID when he heard Ji Jiuyou casually say: "Even if we are really Taoist priests, exorcising ghosts and killing demons, which one do you think your fiancée is suitable for? Ghost or demon?" .”
Chen Hui was stunned, and the figure behind the living room door shook twice.
Sheng Lian took out his ID, showed it, and said calmly: "We are from the 9th Office of the Special Commissioner's Office," and then said in a business-like tone, "Do you know Ah Hei?"
Chen Hui was stunned again, rubbed his hands together, but did not refute, nodded and said: "Yes, I know."
Sheng Lian: "You regularly buy a type of water from him every four seasons, right?"
Chen Hui lowered his head like a prisoner under interrogation: "Yes."
Sheng Lian: "What did you buy that water for?"
Chen Hui buried his eyes, but this time he didn't answer. His figure gave people a deep sense of powerlessness.
The room suddenly fell silent.
Sheng Lian didn't ask any more questions. He was just a temporary interrogation for business affairs. According to the procedure of Section 9, ordinary human Chen Hui would be brought back to Section 9 for interrogation. As for that Sun Xiaoyun who walked out of the peach tree and died more than 20 years ago, Naturally, he will be escorted to the Netherworld Senluo Hall.
However, after a few minutes of silence in the room, Sun Xiaoyun, who was standing behind the door, suddenly rushed out recklessly. As soon as she rushed into the living room, Chen Hui stood up and went to meet her, as if she knew how her woman would react. He hugged her and said comfortingly, "Xiaoyun, calm down, don't be afraid, I'm here."
However, Sun Xiaoyun looked frightened, and her stress reaction was very serious. She kept struggling in Chen Hui's arms, and while struggling, she cried to Ji Jiuyou and Sheng Lian: "Take me away, then The water is for me, Chen Hui is just an ordinary and honest man, I am neither a ghost nor a demon, I threatened him to do these things, you take me away!"
Chen Hui hugged Sun Xiaoyun: "Calm down! Isn't there nothing wrong with it? Don't scare yourself!"
Sun Xiaoyun grabbed Chen Hui's arm and cried, "It's all because of me. If I don't come back to you, I won't rely on you, and I won't be greedy for life. You should have married a wife and had children to live a good life. It's me who hides and hides like this now!"
Sheng Lian looked at the men and women huddling together in front of him speechlessly, and thought to himself that we didn't say what we were going to do, whether the reaction of the two of you needs to be so big.
Taking a closer look, I suddenly found that although Sun Xiaoyun's face and attire were no different from ordinary people, her lower body looked particularly awkward. Sun Xiaoyun's instep does not look like ordinary people's smooth skin at all, but it has rough dark brown bark like a peach tree.
Sun Xiaoyun and Chen Hui were still interacting with each other in the tragic drama of "I can't hurt you" and "I'm not afraid of being hurt by you". Sheng Lian sat down silently, leaned over to Ji Jiuyou, and whispered: "President Ji... "
Ji Jiuyou looked at him sideways, and Sheng Lian changed his words silently: "Jiuyou, that Sun Xiaoyun, her body is actually a peach tree now, right?" After thinking about it again, "Since it's not a peach tree, of course it can't be considered a demon. But since she has been dead for more than [-] years, it stands to reason that she should have forgotten her previous life and reincarnated, and should not be here."
Ji Jiuyou: "You ask me why, and I don't know, only they know best."
With an attitude of asking for advice, Sheng Lian said sincerely: "Then how did you find out that there was something wrong with that peach tree during the day?"
Ji Jiuyou looked back, and looked deeply at Sheng Lian: "Did you forget one thing, the blissful rebirth, hell Jiuyou, since I rule the cycle of life and death, can't I see that there is a soul in that peach tree?"
Suddenly, Sheng Lian flattered him sincerely: "It's amazing." Then he asked, "Then can you see my soul through my appearance?"
Ji Jiuyou snorted, "Compared to your ugly and messy body, let's just look at your skin."
Sheng Lian: "..." Nima.
When Shen Ma rushed back that night, she brought a colleague from the Interrogation Division of Division 9. According to common sense, she wanted to bring Chen Hui and Sun Xiaoyun back to Division 9 and take them to Nether, but the principle of Division 9 has always been low-key. , In order not to disturb the villagers on Dongshan side, the 9th Office formulated a plan overnight, Meng Wangque signed it, and temporarily arranged the inquiry point of the case at Chen Hui's home.
Sun Xiaoyun's mood has been ups and downs. After Shen Ma and her colleagues from the interrogation room came, she became a frightened bird. She curled up in Chen Hui's arms and cried and screamed. She was so tired that she fell asleep in Chen Hui's arms in a daze. As soon as she fell asleep, everyone was surprised to find that Sun Xiaoyun directly turned into a human-shaped log, nestling in Chen Hui's arms.
Others were amazed, but Chen Hui himself did not dislike it. He may have been used to seeing Sun Xiaoyun turned into a log in the past 20 years, and he also looked at the wooden figure in his arms obsessively. , whispered to the people around: "If you have any questions, just ask me, but first let me send her back to the peach tree."
Currently the highest official position in this house is generally recognized as Ji Jiuyou, he nodded, no one objected, Chen Hui carried the wooden figure to the yard, Sheng Lian followed and looked, and found that Chen Hui had gently erected the wooden figure on the peach tree After reaching the edge of the trunk, the wooden man melted into the trunk by itself, while the peach tree lost its flowers and leaves in an instant, and all the flowers and leaves disappeared in the air with a blow of wind, and the peach tree in the yard became the same bare one in the daytime. look.
Seeing the movement in his heart, Sheng Lian suddenly felt something: Yang Xiaoyun came out from the peach tree in the middle of the night to meet Chen Hui, a tree full of peach blossoms bloomed, and when she returned to the peach tree, the lovers parted, and all the flowers and leaves fell. Thinking about it this way, Actually a little sad.
He was stunned for a moment, and sighed softly, while Chen Hui withdrew his infatuated eyes from the peach tree, turned around and said to Sheng Lian: "Come on, you can ask me, I know everything."
There was another colleague from the interrogation department, as honest and loyal as Chen Hui, who even went to the kitchen to pour a glass of water.
After sitting down, he was facing Ji Jiuyou instead of someone else, and next to Ji Jiuyou was Sheng Lian, next to Sheng Lian was the colleague who took notes, and Shen Ma stood behind Chen Hui.
Chen Hui didn't stay silent for a long time this time. After thinking for a while, he said, "Xiaoyun is my fiancée who died in a car accident more than 20 years ago. After her death, I was very sad and finished the funeral with her parents. After that, I originally wanted to leave Dongshan and live in other cities, but the day before I left, I dreamed of Xiaoyun, and she told me that she hid in a deep water jar in the yard of my house and asked me to To save her, I asked her how to save her, and she said, dig a big hole in the yard, bury the jar in it, and plant a small peach tree on top of the jar, and her soul can be attached to that peach tree .”
Chen Hui: "At that time, all my thoughts were lost, and I did as soon as I woke up. I was going to another city and planted that peach tree, but I didn't leave, because I pinned all my hopes and feelings on that peach tree. I actually didn't believe in that dream at all at the time. I thought I dreamed of Xiaoyun because I missed her so much, but the trees were all planted, so I didn't want to leave. I told myself that I would plant peach trees in Dongshan in the future. Well, being with this tree is like being with Xiaoyun."
Chen Hui: "On the 50th day after I planted the peach tree, I was watering the yard, and suddenly I heard someone calling my name, and the voice was Xiaoyun's. She talked to me a lot, and I didn't believe it. She's really back."
The colleague in the interrogation department obviously wanted to interject and ask something at this time, after all, some details need to be carefully considered, but Ji Jiuyou glanced at him, and the colleague immediately shut up obediently.
Sheng Lian didn't pay attention to this scene, but subconsciously interrupted Chen Hui: "Are you so sure it's the 50th day?"
Chen Hui nodded: "Yes, because life was very difficult at that time, I would draw orthographic characters on the wall every day, and when I reached the tenth, Xiao Yun's voice would come out from the peach tree."
The colleagues in the interrogation department were glanced at and shut their mouths honestly. Seeing Sheng Lian's questioning at this moment but not being stopped, they looked sideways at Ji Jiuyou suspiciously. As a result, Ji Jiuyou's bright and discriminatory treatment not only did not make Sheng Lian shut up , and explained to Sheng Lian: "The soul stays in the human world for a maximum of 49 days. If the soul is still there after 49 days, it is basically to find a carrier to attach to the soul."
Sheng Lian nodded: "So that's the case."
The colleague who didn't ask a question looked sideways at Shen Ma who was standing there with a look of astonishment on his face: WTF, can he ask, why the hell should I shut up?
Shen Ma replied to him with eyes: Who made you look ugly.
colleague:"……"
Seeing that no one asked any more questions, Chen Hui continued: "After Xiaoyun came back, I was very happy and felt that life had new hope. Xiaoyun also talked with me every day. The peach tree grew bigger and bigger. She also told me I, Peach Tree, can help her reshape her body, so I take good care of Peach Tree every day. After some years, Xiaoyun really came out of the Peach Tree in a human form, but at first her skin was all peach. Like the bark, she has no hair, and her body is made of wood, but gradually, as the peach tree grows, she begins to have a human body. We are very happy to be together again, so we agreed to live in the Dongshan, don’t go anywhere until she is fully sculpted, then I will take her away and start a new life.”
Ji Jiuyou said slowly: "So, you used to grow peaches to earn some basic living expenses, but now you are leaving Dongshan and need money, so you started selling peaches yourself, right?"
Chen Hui nodded: "Yes."
Ji Jiuyou put it bluntly: "Because your fiancée's body is almost completely molded, only the feet are still made of wood."
Chen Hui: "That's right."
Ji Jiuyou stopped talking and leaned back lazily. At this time, the colleagues from the interrogation department "appeared beautifully" and asked: "You have admitted before that you bought a kind of water from Ah Hei. Do you know it is What water?"
Chen Hui: "It seems to be called reincarnation water."
While recording, the colleague then asked: "Why do you want to buy samsara water?"
Chen Hui: "Because the water of reincarnation irrigates the peach tree, her body can be molded in the wood."
The colleague then asked: "Since you need reincarnation water, how did you contact that Ah Hei?"
Chen Hui: "I found it online, I searched it."
This obviously seemed to be a lie and an excuse. Sheng Lian searched on his mobile phone and found a lot of entries related to "Samsara Water", but after searching, there was no online shop that sold Samsara Water as Chen Hui said.
Chen Hui explained: "I found it on the Internet five or six years ago. I didn't know how I found it at the time. I contacted that Ah Hei. I didn't believe it at first. Later, I bought some water from him to water peaches. The tree is indeed effective in shaping the body, Xiaoyun told me it was true, so I bought it from him regularly."
Shen Ma: "Except for Ah Hei, have you ever bought reincarnation water from others?"
Chen Hui: "No, since he has it over there, I'll buy it directly from him."
Shen Ma: "Have you had much contact with Ah Hei?"
Chen Hui thought for a while, then shook his head: "Actually, I came into contact with him because I bought reincarnation water. He asked me what I bought the water for, and I said that I grow peaches. The reincarnation water irrigates peach trees and the harvest is good. I'm not familiar with it, so I contacted you only after buying water."
Chen Hui seems to know only so much, but there is obviously more information that Sun Xiaoyun needs to answer. For example, how did she know that the peach tree watered by reincarnation water can help her reshape her physical body, and how did she successfully attach to the peach tree? Live the soul.
Chen Hui's family was temporarily controlled by No. 9. In order to make everything look as if nothing had happened, Ji Jiuyou still asked people to bring 500 boxes of peaches back to the company. As for the other 500 boxes, it was just an excuse. No need for that leftover peach.
Chen Hui chatted until midnight, and when it was over, Sheng Lian asked him to go upstairs to rest. Chen Hui finally showed his fear and worry for them, and refused to go upstairs. He just moved a chair and sat against the peach tree. He was sleeping below, as if he was afraid that they would take Sun Xiaoyun away while he was asleep.
He refused to leave the peach tree, so Sheng Lian turned and went upstairs, Shen Ma thought he was going to search the second floor, Pidiandian followed up, only to find that Sheng Lian just went up to get a blanket.
Shen Ma looked at Sheng Lian in disbelief: "Damn it, your mother is reincarnated."
Isn't it Sheng Lian Xindao, the reincarnation of the universe's super invincible Thunderbolt Great Virgin, if it weren't for the Super Great Virgin, who could protect the world of water and jade with one person's strength.
Sheng Lian went downstairs and brought the blanket to Chen Hui. Chen Hui had closed his eyes, but was startled when he heard the movement. Seeing that Sheng Lian brought him the blanket, he said in surprise, "Thank you."
Sheng Lian: "You're welcome," he said again, "Although we won't take your fiancée away right now, we still need to ask her some questions."
Chen Hui nodded: "Okay, I understand."
Sheng Lian's act of bringing Chen Hui a blanket was also noticed by another colleague, and when he returned to the living room from the yard, the colleague said to Sheng Lian: "You are too kind, it's not good to be so soft-hearted. Standing against him."
Sheng Lian sat down on the sofa: "I know." He knew very well that the Netherworld's rules were there, they could not allow Sun Xiaoyun to stay with Chen Hui in the human world, but Chen Hui's long-cherished wish was to be in love with Sun Xiaoyun for a lifetime , grow old together.
Sheng Lian sighed, and realized that sometimes he, who is a lotus flower, is really too soft-hearted. He is not thinking about this case at the moment, but he is feeling that Chen Hui's luck is too bad. It has been more than 20 years, and seeing Sun Xiaoyun is about to completely reshape her body and fly away. To live again, but suddenly because of Hu Xinrui's case, she was involved step by step. Not only was the secret discovered, but she might be separated from her lover again.
Sheng Lian thought about it, and couldn't help closing his eyes and sighing a few times. The sofa beside him suddenly sank, and Ji Jiuyou sat down.
Sheng Lian was a little sleepy, and rubbed his eyes, but Ji Jiuyou said without a word: "Don't be moved, Chen Hui and Sun Xiaoyun have their own positions, which doesn't mean they are innocent."
Sheng Lian was taken aback, then woke up suddenly, and looked at Ji Jiuyou puzzledly: "How do you say that?"
Ji Jiuyou: "Sun Xiaoyun has been shaping her body a little over the years. She doesn't have a body, and the yin energy of her soul will naturally affect the people around her. Didn't you notice that the houses near Chen Hui's house were all empty when I walked all the way from the hotel? ?”
Sheng Lian: "Of course I noticed. I thought it was superstitious in their village and thought his fate was too hard, so they moved out on purpose."
Ji Jiuyou: "Of course not, it's Sun Xiaoyun. His yin energy will affect the fate of ordinary people. You have also seen that Chen Hui is only in his 40s, but his hair is already half white."
Sheng Lian didn't say a word, but wiped his sweat silently thinking in his heart, he thought that Chen Hui's half head of gray hair was caused by the early death of his parents and his fiancée's death, but it turned out to be the case.
Hurryingly put away the untimely Madonna's heart, and asked Ji Jiuyou quietly: "Then, Sun Xiaoyun, according to your Netherworld's regulations, how will you arrange her after she arrives in Netherworld?"
Ji Jiuyou said, "Don't worry, I still have something to ask her."
The night passed quickly, and at 04:30 in the morning, while Shen Ma, Sheng Lian, and colleagues from the interrogation department were still sleeping, the courtyard door was gently pushed open.
Chen Hui woke up suddenly, opened his eyes, and saw Ji Jiuyou at a glance, but before he had time to stand up, Ji Jiuyou raised his hand and waved him lightly, he rolled his eyes and fell asleep on the chair again superior.
The peach tree branches behind him trembled slightly, and several branches stretched out, gently curling around Chen Hui's body a few times, wrapping the man securely.
Then, a woman's voice trembled: "What do you want to ask me?"
Standing in the yard, Ji Jiuyou looked up at the peach tree in front of him: "Sun Xiaoyun, you died in a car accident 22 years ago. You have a verdict of 'good' in the book of life and death, and you got the chance to be reincarnated. And the reason why you can bring The reason why I returned to the human world with my memory is because when you were reincarnated, you happened to encounter the monsters in the Water Jade Realm making trouble, and you ran out while taking advantage of the chaos."
Taoshu was silent for a while: "Yes."
Ji Jiuyou squinted his eyes: "It's just a weak three souls and six souls. They hide in the jar and ask their fiancé to bury the jar in the ground and plant a peach tree on it. After 50 days, the soul is attached to the peach tree." .Chen Hui is a mortal. If you believe this, you don’t have to use these words to fool me. Say, when you escaped from the Realm of Water and Jade, what did you steal in troubled waters?”
Taoshu immediately retorted: "I didn't steal it! Someone gave it to me!"
Ji Jiuyou: "Who, what did you give me?"
Peach Tree didn't speak.
Ji Jiuyou: "It doesn't matter if you don't say anything. Dig out your peach tree, cut off the root system, and see what is in the jar buried below that is helping you possess your soul." When the voice fell, the ground in the yard began to slightly sway. flutter.
Sun Xiaoyun had a lot of scruples, not only the root of the peach tree she possessed, but also the life of Chen Hui in the yard. She knew that she was no match for the man in front of her, so she had to compromise: "The ring is a ring!"
Ji Jiuyou said slowly: "Hand it over."
Sun Xiaoyun was silent for a while, and after weighing the pros and cons, the deeply buried tree roots moved slowly in the ground, and then dug out the ring from the buried jar.
Soon, the roots broke through the ground, and a white ring stained with dirt was rolled up by the thick roots of the peach tree, and slowly fell into Ji Jiuyou's flattened palm.
Ji Jiuyou looked down at the ring in his palm, and there was something flickering in his eyes, he put away his palm, squeezed the ring, and said again: "What happened to the person who gave you the ring? "
Sun Xiaoyun seemed to be remembering too, her tone of answer became a little empty, and her speaking speed naturally slowed down: "He seems to be injured..."
-
It turns out that people have emotions after death. Sun Xiaoyun felt very sad. He lost his life in a car accident, his soul was separated, and he was taken away. He has been separated from his fiancé ever since.
She was so sad that she cried all the way, sitting on a big boat full of ghosts and ghosts, surrounded by all kinds of laughing, cursing, crying and sad faces.
The people sitting around her were all older than her, and when she was crying, someone comforted her.
Tired of crying, she leaned against her grandmother to rest for a while. When she raised her eyes, she saw a wide river, with smoke from cooking houses on both sides of the river, and farmland and clothing houses, as if she had returned to the world.
Grandma wiped her tears and told her: "Look, we are in heaven."
She sniffed, but was not fooled: "No, not here."
Grandma laughed: "Of course this is heaven. Heaven is so beautiful."
She pointed to the small print on the back of the front seat for Grandma: "The Nether Soul Ship, Grandma, we are in the underworld."
Grandma: "Never mind him, anyway, this place is beautiful, it's dead, so don't be sad, my dear girl."
In fact, she was still very sad, because after that, she could never see Chen Hui again, and the bright future they had planned together was gone.
She looked up and was affected by the peaceful and beautiful scene in front of her, and felt it again for a while, thinking that Chen Hui would gradually forget about him, marry another woman, marry and start a family in the future, she suddenly felt sad and burst into tears.
This time, the more she cried, the louder the movement became, and the more she cried, the more uncomfortable she became. At the end of the crying, all the ghosts on the boat came to comfort her.
The swaying hull suddenly stopped.
A voice came from the top of the head, very soft and pleasant to hear: "Little girl, why are you crying?"
Sun Xiaoyun raised her neck, but saw a high wall in the middle of the river, a voice floated down from above, and no one answered, so Sun Xiaoyun sobbed and said, "I feel bad."
The man said: "Because of what?"
Sun Xiaoyun sniffed: "I miss my family, I miss my fiancé."
But the man said: "If you are reincarnated, you will have family members and a fiancé in the future, so don't worry about it."
But the young girl burst into tears again: "I don't want a new fiancé, I want Chen Hui! I want Chen Hui!"
In fact, there is still a gap between humans and ghosts. Humans have many obsessions that cannot be let go, but ghosts do not have deep obsessions. Their emotions gradually fade as the body and soul are separated. Naturally, it gradually dissipated as the road drifted down.
But there are always exceptions, and Sun Xiaoyun is this exception. She has a deep affection for Chen Hui, and her longing is getting stronger and stronger as the boat floats down.
The man on the high wall pondered for a while, and said slowly: "Go to the side of the boat, look into the water, and you will see your lover."
Sun Xiaoyun walked to the side of the boat.
She didn't know that the Samsara River can only see the past of this life, but it can't be fixed in a picture as one likes, but the scene reflected in the Samsara Water stopped for her. She saw Chen Hui on the water, and the picture was her 19 The scene when I met Chen Hui at the school gate for the first time when I was young.
She stared blankly at the water, and finally stopped crying.
The ecstasy boat continued westward, how did she disembark, where she went, who she met, and what she said. In the past 22 years, she has no memory at all. She only remembers in general. The trial only gave a "good" verdict, and then sent her to reincarnation in full swing.
She boarded the boat again, but this time it was not a big boat, but a medium-sized boat. There was a man standing on the bow with his back to her. Others on the boat told her that it was the extradition man who was reincarnated. You can't turn back, because reincarnation means don't turn back. Once the extraditing person looks back at someone, he will lose the opportunity to reincarnate.
She was sitting in the stern, not caring about the extraditionist, just looking at the water surface obsessively, where there was the figure of the man he loved the most.
The boat swayed, and Sun Xiaoyun didn't move at all, but when she passed the high wall again, she raised her neck to see if there was anyone on it, but she couldn't see anything clearly.
She asked her seatmate: "Who's up there?"
The neighbor said: "I also reincarnated today, I don't know."
Since I didn’t see anything during the day, maybe there will be something at night——Sheng Lian always remembered that he once saw peach petals in the dirt outside the wall of Chen Hui’s backyard, and when he thought about the bare tree trunk, he felt that the tree in the backyard might be in danger. not simple.
As a result, Shen Ma didn't come back from a walk until midnight, and his mobile phone couldn't get through, so Sheng Lian could only look for Ji Jiuyou alone, and he didn't forget to bring the paper rabbit in his pocket.
Knocking on the door, I saw Ji Jiuyou's gloomy and unhappy face, as if someone was not afraid to offend the big brother of You Ming.
With an innocent expression of "I don't know anything, nothing happened", Sheng Lian looked at Ji Jiuyou at the door, and said in a low voice, "Mr. Ji, do you want to go to the backyard of Chen Hui's house to see that peach tree?"
Ji Jiuyou let out a "hmm", but looked at Sheng Lian, and asked without beginning or end, "Where is the rabbit?"
Sheng Lian took out the paper-cut rabbit from his pocket, spread it out in the palm of his hand, and replied, "I have it," and said earnestly, "Of course I have to. You gave it to me specially, Mr. Ji."
Ji Jiuyou took another look at Sheng Lian, and said, "Don't you like this rabbit?"
Sheng Lian smiled: "How could it be, this little guy was purified by me, and he is so obedient, of course I like it, I really like it."
Unlike cities full of traffic and lights everywhere, there are no street lights in many places in Dongshan, and when you go to remote places, you will be full of shadows.
Sheng Lian and Ji Jiuyou walked upstream along the river, with a long river on one side and residential houses on the other, and then Sheng Lian suddenly realized something - he and Shen Ma were walking on the front street, which was a matter of course They thought that the side facing the street was the front yard, and the side facing the river was the back yard. They wondered why the front yard was so small and the back yard was so big, but maybe it was because of their preconceived notion that the side facing the river was the front yard. The street behind is the backyard.
When Sheng Lian thought about it, he suddenly became enlightened, but suddenly realized that there is no difference between the front yard and the back yard, and it has nothing to do with what they want to investigate.
Ten minutes later, the two finally reached the door of Chen Hui's small courtyard.
Sheng Lian raised his neck, his line of sight was blocked by the high wall, he couldn't see why, he stood beside Ji Jiuyou, and said in a low voice: "Didn't you say it was interesting to see that peach tree during the day, why is it so interesting?" Fa, Your Highness, let me see and see."
Ji Jiuyou tilted his head: "What did you call me?"
Sheng Lian took it for granted: "Your Highness." But he thought in his heart, what's the problem? That day by the mirror lake, the civil servants in the entire Youming Senluo Temple knelt and shouted "Your Highness lives in harmony with the sky", and then suddenly, he couldn't do it by himself. Fortunately, he is an envoy of God. If he is really an envoy of God, then he doesn't need to be called His Highness Ji Jiuyou, he should be called "son".
Of course, this son is not good at half a dime, just a brat.
But suddenly, Sheng Lian felt that his footsteps were off the ground and his body lost its center of gravity. He subconsciously stretched out his hand to help him, but found a piece of chest. He raised his eyes in astonishment, and met Ji Jiuyou's raised eyebrows and somewhat unruly eyes: "You called me wrong. .”
Sheng Lian silently moved his hand on Ji Jiuyou's chest, and nestled it calmly in Princess Ji Jiuyou's arms: "Then what should I call you?" Or should I call you Mr. Ji as before?Or the devil?
Ji Jiuyou tiptoed, and leaped onto the wall of Chen Hui's house like a swallow, and his voice fell steadily along with his steps: "Jiuyou, you should call me Jiuyou."
When Sheng Lian met Ji Jiuyou for the first time, he used to call "Jiuyou" familiarly, but at that time it was to make friends, but now he said "Jiuyou" silently between his lips and tongue, and suddenly felt very smooth, feeling like He had really pronounced this short two-character name thousands of times.
But without waiting for him to reflect deeply, following Ji Jiuyou's eyes and looking into the yard, Sheng Lian suddenly froze——
The branches of the bare peach trees that I have seen during the day are now full of pink and white peach blossoms. Even if there is no light, the blooming flowers are amazing, but summer is in the sky, spring is no longer, and the peach blossoms have already passed. How can such a gorgeous peach blossom bloom in the season?
"How come? Didn't you see a single leaf during the day, let alone a flower bud? Where did the flowers come from?" Sheng Lian asked in a low voice.
But Ji Jiuyou said "sit firmly", and slowly fell from the wall into the courtyard with Sheng Lian in his arms. There was no wind, and Ji Jiuyou's flying body did not form much air convection when he landed, but the petals of the peach blossoms fell off one after another. Falling, as if being swept up by the wind, it is eloquent, and it falls down in a piece, which is beautiful.
Now that they are all on the ground, Sheng Lian is really embarrassed to nestle in Ji Jiuyou's arms with peace of mind, but he tried to jump off but failed, because the one holding him did not let go of his consciousness at all.
Sheng Lian could only cough and reminded: "Mr. Ji, okay, I'll come down and walk by myself."
Ji Jiuyou's smirk sounded in his ears: "What did you call me?"
Sheng Lian thought for a while, and said "son" in his heart, but replied sincerely: "Jiuyou."
Only then did Ji Jiuyou let go and put him down.
As soon as Sheng Lian landed on the ground, he interrupted again temporarily. He didn't care about the business to be done at the moment, but said to Ji Jiuyou: "Everyone is an adult, so let's be more mature in doing things. Is this interesting?"
Ji Jiuyou's eyes fell on the peach tree in front of him, he snorted, and said quietly: "When you pressed the rabbit's head on the table and rubbed it, did you think that you were a mature adult man?"
It turned out that he had guessed it all, so let's go to each other, Sheng Lian then turned his head, and his eyes fell on the peach tree in front of him, and he was stunned again after seeing this.
The peach tree is still a peach tree, and the peach blossoms are still peach blossoms, but the peach tree in front of him is missing a big piece, and the missing piece looks like a person.
Sheng Lian froze for a moment, suppressed his voice, and said in astonishment: "Could it be the peach tree spirit?"
Ji Jiuyou's eyes fell on the two-story building behind the peach tree, and he snorted: "What's so strange about monsters, if it's a peach tree spirit, can it be called interesting?"
After Ji Jiuyou finished speaking, he walked around the peach tree and walked towards the sliding door. Sheng Lian followed. When he arrived at the door, he found that the sliding door was unlocked. Listen carefully, and there was a woman's voice faintly in the room, which seemed to be There was a quarrel, so the sound came out from the door.
Ji Jiuyou directly raised his hand and opened the sliding door and walked in. Sheng Lian followed without thinking.
The voice came from the second floor. When the two walked in and walked around to the stairs, the voice became clear immediately.
A young woman's voice rolled down the stairs clearly: "Ah Hui, just trust me, pack up your things and go, tonight."
Chen Hui's voice followed: "Stop talking, how can I leave you alone. Don't be suspicious, the three people in the family have been helping the company buy peaches for a few days, and I will call to ask I have been to that company, it’s true, I didn’t lie to me, you don’t want to think that there is something wrong with the other party.”
The young woman said: "No, it's not as simple as you think. Those three people searched the house today. Some of them went to the room on the second floor, and some went to the backyard. There was a man, a man... "The voice trembled as he said, "I can't describe it. As soon as he entered the yard, I felt chills all over my body. Just believe me once. Come on, don't be implicated by me, just leave me alone I have lived for more than 20 years, I have enough money, really, you should go now."
The woman broke down in tears while talking, Chen Hui patiently comforted her, and kept coaxing her softly. Sheng Lian didn't hear anything else, but she heard that Chen Hui had a very good relationship with the woman who came out of the peach tree trunk.
But at this critical moment of eavesdropping, Sheng Lian's cell phone rang suddenly, and the ringtone was so clear that even a half-deaf person could hear the sound.
"Who?" Chen Hui upstairs shouted vigilantly, and soon there was the sound of footsteps stepping on the stairs.
Sheng Lian hurriedly took out his cell phone, and was about to press it, but found that the caller was actually Shen Ma.
Ji Jiuyou calmly said, "Go ahead." He walked upstairs.
Sheng connected to the phone, raised his gaze, and saw the shadow of Chen Hui falling on the wall of the stairs when he went downstairs at the corner of the stairs. On the phone, Shen Ma hurriedly said: "It's Chen Hui's fiancee! The one hidden on the second floor The woman in question is Chen Hui's fiancée who died unexpectedly more than 20 years ago!"
At the corner of the stairs, Ji Jiuyou and Chen Hui, who looked frightened and apprehensive, faced each other. Another sound of hurried footsteps came from upstairs, and the face of a young woman suddenly appeared in everyone's sight.
Shen Ma's words appeared at the same time as the woman in sight, and Sheng Lian's scalp immediately became hairy.
However, the woman ran downstairs in a hurry, stood in front of Chen Hui with a crying voice, and kept urging the man behind her: "Hurry up! Hurry up!"
Ji Jiuyou: "The fearless struggle is nothing but a waste of energy. If I were your fiancé, I would go downstairs honestly and bring three more cups of hot tea."
As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Hui hugged the young woman from behind and comforted him: "Xiaoyun, it's okay, I'm here, I'm the one to take care of everything."
-
When a cup of warm tea was served in front of him again, Sheng Lian didn't see the young woman's appearance clearly. The living room light was on, but she was standing outside the living room door in the dark, with only a side face.
Ji Jiuyou said three cups of hot tea, Chen Hui really poured out three cups, put down the last cup, and sat across from the sofa.
But no one moved the teacup again.
Chen Hui lowered his eyes and was silent for a while, then turned his head to look in the direction of his fiancée Sun Xiaoyun, and sighed.
But Ji Jiuyou said slowly: "She is your deceased fiancée."
The secret that had been kept for 22 years was revealed, and Chen Hui's face was pale, but perhaps because Ji Jiuyou and Sheng Lian did not act violently, the loyal Chen Hui also chose to face the moment when the secret was revealed in a silent and calm way .
Chen Hui said: "Yes, she is my fiancée." As he spoke, he rubbed his hands and looked up, "Who are you guys? Taoist priests? The kind that exorcise ghosts and demons."
Sheng Lian remembered that the routine questioning was to reveal his identity, and was about to take out his ID when he heard Ji Jiuyou casually say: "Even if we are really Taoist priests, exorcising ghosts and killing demons, which one do you think your fiancée is suitable for? Ghost or demon?" .”
Chen Hui was stunned, and the figure behind the living room door shook twice.
Sheng Lian took out his ID, showed it, and said calmly: "We are from the 9th Office of the Special Commissioner's Office," and then said in a business-like tone, "Do you know Ah Hei?"
Chen Hui was stunned again, rubbed his hands together, but did not refute, nodded and said: "Yes, I know."
Sheng Lian: "You regularly buy a type of water from him every four seasons, right?"
Chen Hui lowered his head like a prisoner under interrogation: "Yes."
Sheng Lian: "What did you buy that water for?"
Chen Hui buried his eyes, but this time he didn't answer. His figure gave people a deep sense of powerlessness.
The room suddenly fell silent.
Sheng Lian didn't ask any more questions. He was just a temporary interrogation for business affairs. According to the procedure of Section 9, ordinary human Chen Hui would be brought back to Section 9 for interrogation. As for that Sun Xiaoyun who walked out of the peach tree and died more than 20 years ago, Naturally, he will be escorted to the Netherworld Senluo Hall.
However, after a few minutes of silence in the room, Sun Xiaoyun, who was standing behind the door, suddenly rushed out recklessly. As soon as she rushed into the living room, Chen Hui stood up and went to meet her, as if she knew how her woman would react. He hugged her and said comfortingly, "Xiaoyun, calm down, don't be afraid, I'm here."
However, Sun Xiaoyun looked frightened, and her stress reaction was very serious. She kept struggling in Chen Hui's arms, and while struggling, she cried to Ji Jiuyou and Sheng Lian: "Take me away, then The water is for me, Chen Hui is just an ordinary and honest man, I am neither a ghost nor a demon, I threatened him to do these things, you take me away!"
Chen Hui hugged Sun Xiaoyun: "Calm down! Isn't there nothing wrong with it? Don't scare yourself!"
Sun Xiaoyun grabbed Chen Hui's arm and cried, "It's all because of me. If I don't come back to you, I won't rely on you, and I won't be greedy for life. You should have married a wife and had children to live a good life. It's me who hides and hides like this now!"
Sheng Lian looked at the men and women huddling together in front of him speechlessly, and thought to himself that we didn't say what we were going to do, whether the reaction of the two of you needs to be so big.
Taking a closer look, I suddenly found that although Sun Xiaoyun's face and attire were no different from ordinary people, her lower body looked particularly awkward. Sun Xiaoyun's instep does not look like ordinary people's smooth skin at all, but it has rough dark brown bark like a peach tree.
Sun Xiaoyun and Chen Hui were still interacting with each other in the tragic drama of "I can't hurt you" and "I'm not afraid of being hurt by you". Sheng Lian sat down silently, leaned over to Ji Jiuyou, and whispered: "President Ji... "
Ji Jiuyou looked at him sideways, and Sheng Lian changed his words silently: "Jiuyou, that Sun Xiaoyun, her body is actually a peach tree now, right?" After thinking about it again, "Since it's not a peach tree, of course it can't be considered a demon. But since she has been dead for more than [-] years, it stands to reason that she should have forgotten her previous life and reincarnated, and should not be here."
Ji Jiuyou: "You ask me why, and I don't know, only they know best."
With an attitude of asking for advice, Sheng Lian said sincerely: "Then how did you find out that there was something wrong with that peach tree during the day?"
Ji Jiuyou looked back, and looked deeply at Sheng Lian: "Did you forget one thing, the blissful rebirth, hell Jiuyou, since I rule the cycle of life and death, can't I see that there is a soul in that peach tree?"
Suddenly, Sheng Lian flattered him sincerely: "It's amazing." Then he asked, "Then can you see my soul through my appearance?"
Ji Jiuyou snorted, "Compared to your ugly and messy body, let's just look at your skin."
Sheng Lian: "..." Nima.
When Shen Ma rushed back that night, she brought a colleague from the Interrogation Division of Division 9. According to common sense, she wanted to bring Chen Hui and Sun Xiaoyun back to Division 9 and take them to Nether, but the principle of Division 9 has always been low-key. , In order not to disturb the villagers on Dongshan side, the 9th Office formulated a plan overnight, Meng Wangque signed it, and temporarily arranged the inquiry point of the case at Chen Hui's home.
Sun Xiaoyun's mood has been ups and downs. After Shen Ma and her colleagues from the interrogation room came, she became a frightened bird. She curled up in Chen Hui's arms and cried and screamed. She was so tired that she fell asleep in Chen Hui's arms in a daze. As soon as she fell asleep, everyone was surprised to find that Sun Xiaoyun directly turned into a human-shaped log, nestling in Chen Hui's arms.
Others were amazed, but Chen Hui himself did not dislike it. He may have been used to seeing Sun Xiaoyun turned into a log in the past 20 years, and he also looked at the wooden figure in his arms obsessively. , whispered to the people around: "If you have any questions, just ask me, but first let me send her back to the peach tree."
Currently the highest official position in this house is generally recognized as Ji Jiuyou, he nodded, no one objected, Chen Hui carried the wooden figure to the yard, Sheng Lian followed and looked, and found that Chen Hui had gently erected the wooden figure on the peach tree After reaching the edge of the trunk, the wooden man melted into the trunk by itself, while the peach tree lost its flowers and leaves in an instant, and all the flowers and leaves disappeared in the air with a blow of wind, and the peach tree in the yard became the same bare one in the daytime. look.
Seeing the movement in his heart, Sheng Lian suddenly felt something: Yang Xiaoyun came out from the peach tree in the middle of the night to meet Chen Hui, a tree full of peach blossoms bloomed, and when she returned to the peach tree, the lovers parted, and all the flowers and leaves fell. Thinking about it this way, Actually a little sad.
He was stunned for a moment, and sighed softly, while Chen Hui withdrew his infatuated eyes from the peach tree, turned around and said to Sheng Lian: "Come on, you can ask me, I know everything."
There was another colleague from the interrogation department, as honest and loyal as Chen Hui, who even went to the kitchen to pour a glass of water.
After sitting down, he was facing Ji Jiuyou instead of someone else, and next to Ji Jiuyou was Sheng Lian, next to Sheng Lian was the colleague who took notes, and Shen Ma stood behind Chen Hui.
Chen Hui didn't stay silent for a long time this time. After thinking for a while, he said, "Xiaoyun is my fiancée who died in a car accident more than 20 years ago. After her death, I was very sad and finished the funeral with her parents. After that, I originally wanted to leave Dongshan and live in other cities, but the day before I left, I dreamed of Xiaoyun, and she told me that she hid in a deep water jar in the yard of my house and asked me to To save her, I asked her how to save her, and she said, dig a big hole in the yard, bury the jar in it, and plant a small peach tree on top of the jar, and her soul can be attached to that peach tree .”
Chen Hui: "At that time, all my thoughts were lost, and I did as soon as I woke up. I was going to another city and planted that peach tree, but I didn't leave, because I pinned all my hopes and feelings on that peach tree. I actually didn't believe in that dream at all at the time. I thought I dreamed of Xiaoyun because I missed her so much, but the trees were all planted, so I didn't want to leave. I told myself that I would plant peach trees in Dongshan in the future. Well, being with this tree is like being with Xiaoyun."
Chen Hui: "On the 50th day after I planted the peach tree, I was watering the yard, and suddenly I heard someone calling my name, and the voice was Xiaoyun's. She talked to me a lot, and I didn't believe it. She's really back."
The colleague in the interrogation department obviously wanted to interject and ask something at this time, after all, some details need to be carefully considered, but Ji Jiuyou glanced at him, and the colleague immediately shut up obediently.
Sheng Lian didn't pay attention to this scene, but subconsciously interrupted Chen Hui: "Are you so sure it's the 50th day?"
Chen Hui nodded: "Yes, because life was very difficult at that time, I would draw orthographic characters on the wall every day, and when I reached the tenth, Xiao Yun's voice would come out from the peach tree."
The colleagues in the interrogation department were glanced at and shut their mouths honestly. Seeing Sheng Lian's questioning at this moment but not being stopped, they looked sideways at Ji Jiuyou suspiciously. As a result, Ji Jiuyou's bright and discriminatory treatment not only did not make Sheng Lian shut up , and explained to Sheng Lian: "The soul stays in the human world for a maximum of 49 days. If the soul is still there after 49 days, it is basically to find a carrier to attach to the soul."
Sheng Lian nodded: "So that's the case."
The colleague who didn't ask a question looked sideways at Shen Ma who was standing there with a look of astonishment on his face: WTF, can he ask, why the hell should I shut up?
Shen Ma replied to him with eyes: Who made you look ugly.
colleague:"……"
Seeing that no one asked any more questions, Chen Hui continued: "After Xiaoyun came back, I was very happy and felt that life had new hope. Xiaoyun also talked with me every day. The peach tree grew bigger and bigger. She also told me I, Peach Tree, can help her reshape her body, so I take good care of Peach Tree every day. After some years, Xiaoyun really came out of the Peach Tree in a human form, but at first her skin was all peach. Like the bark, she has no hair, and her body is made of wood, but gradually, as the peach tree grows, she begins to have a human body. We are very happy to be together again, so we agreed to live in the Dongshan, don’t go anywhere until she is fully sculpted, then I will take her away and start a new life.”
Ji Jiuyou said slowly: "So, you used to grow peaches to earn some basic living expenses, but now you are leaving Dongshan and need money, so you started selling peaches yourself, right?"
Chen Hui nodded: "Yes."
Ji Jiuyou put it bluntly: "Because your fiancée's body is almost completely molded, only the feet are still made of wood."
Chen Hui: "That's right."
Ji Jiuyou stopped talking and leaned back lazily. At this time, the colleagues from the interrogation department "appeared beautifully" and asked: "You have admitted before that you bought a kind of water from Ah Hei. Do you know it is What water?"
Chen Hui: "It seems to be called reincarnation water."
While recording, the colleague then asked: "Why do you want to buy samsara water?"
Chen Hui: "Because the water of reincarnation irrigates the peach tree, her body can be molded in the wood."
The colleague then asked: "Since you need reincarnation water, how did you contact that Ah Hei?"
Chen Hui: "I found it online, I searched it."
This obviously seemed to be a lie and an excuse. Sheng Lian searched on his mobile phone and found a lot of entries related to "Samsara Water", but after searching, there was no online shop that sold Samsara Water as Chen Hui said.
Chen Hui explained: "I found it on the Internet five or six years ago. I didn't know how I found it at the time. I contacted that Ah Hei. I didn't believe it at first. Later, I bought some water from him to water peaches. The tree is indeed effective in shaping the body, Xiaoyun told me it was true, so I bought it from him regularly."
Shen Ma: "Except for Ah Hei, have you ever bought reincarnation water from others?"
Chen Hui: "No, since he has it over there, I'll buy it directly from him."
Shen Ma: "Have you had much contact with Ah Hei?"
Chen Hui thought for a while, then shook his head: "Actually, I came into contact with him because I bought reincarnation water. He asked me what I bought the water for, and I said that I grow peaches. The reincarnation water irrigates peach trees and the harvest is good. I'm not familiar with it, so I contacted you only after buying water."
Chen Hui seems to know only so much, but there is obviously more information that Sun Xiaoyun needs to answer. For example, how did she know that the peach tree watered by reincarnation water can help her reshape her physical body, and how did she successfully attach to the peach tree? Live the soul.
Chen Hui's family was temporarily controlled by No. 9. In order to make everything look as if nothing had happened, Ji Jiuyou still asked people to bring 500 boxes of peaches back to the company. As for the other 500 boxes, it was just an excuse. No need for that leftover peach.
Chen Hui chatted until midnight, and when it was over, Sheng Lian asked him to go upstairs to rest. Chen Hui finally showed his fear and worry for them, and refused to go upstairs. He just moved a chair and sat against the peach tree. He was sleeping below, as if he was afraid that they would take Sun Xiaoyun away while he was asleep.
He refused to leave the peach tree, so Sheng Lian turned and went upstairs, Shen Ma thought he was going to search the second floor, Pidiandian followed up, only to find that Sheng Lian just went up to get a blanket.
Shen Ma looked at Sheng Lian in disbelief: "Damn it, your mother is reincarnated."
Isn't it Sheng Lian Xindao, the reincarnation of the universe's super invincible Thunderbolt Great Virgin, if it weren't for the Super Great Virgin, who could protect the world of water and jade with one person's strength.
Sheng Lian went downstairs and brought the blanket to Chen Hui. Chen Hui had closed his eyes, but was startled when he heard the movement. Seeing that Sheng Lian brought him the blanket, he said in surprise, "Thank you."
Sheng Lian: "You're welcome," he said again, "Although we won't take your fiancée away right now, we still need to ask her some questions."
Chen Hui nodded: "Okay, I understand."
Sheng Lian's act of bringing Chen Hui a blanket was also noticed by another colleague, and when he returned to the living room from the yard, the colleague said to Sheng Lian: "You are too kind, it's not good to be so soft-hearted. Standing against him."
Sheng Lian sat down on the sofa: "I know." He knew very well that the Netherworld's rules were there, they could not allow Sun Xiaoyun to stay with Chen Hui in the human world, but Chen Hui's long-cherished wish was to be in love with Sun Xiaoyun for a lifetime , grow old together.
Sheng Lian sighed, and realized that sometimes he, who is a lotus flower, is really too soft-hearted. He is not thinking about this case at the moment, but he is feeling that Chen Hui's luck is too bad. It has been more than 20 years, and seeing Sun Xiaoyun is about to completely reshape her body and fly away. To live again, but suddenly because of Hu Xinrui's case, she was involved step by step. Not only was the secret discovered, but she might be separated from her lover again.
Sheng Lian thought about it, and couldn't help closing his eyes and sighing a few times. The sofa beside him suddenly sank, and Ji Jiuyou sat down.
Sheng Lian was a little sleepy, and rubbed his eyes, but Ji Jiuyou said without a word: "Don't be moved, Chen Hui and Sun Xiaoyun have their own positions, which doesn't mean they are innocent."
Sheng Lian was taken aback, then woke up suddenly, and looked at Ji Jiuyou puzzledly: "How do you say that?"
Ji Jiuyou: "Sun Xiaoyun has been shaping her body a little over the years. She doesn't have a body, and the yin energy of her soul will naturally affect the people around her. Didn't you notice that the houses near Chen Hui's house were all empty when I walked all the way from the hotel? ?”
Sheng Lian: "Of course I noticed. I thought it was superstitious in their village and thought his fate was too hard, so they moved out on purpose."
Ji Jiuyou: "Of course not, it's Sun Xiaoyun. His yin energy will affect the fate of ordinary people. You have also seen that Chen Hui is only in his 40s, but his hair is already half white."
Sheng Lian didn't say a word, but wiped his sweat silently thinking in his heart, he thought that Chen Hui's half head of gray hair was caused by the early death of his parents and his fiancée's death, but it turned out to be the case.
Hurryingly put away the untimely Madonna's heart, and asked Ji Jiuyou quietly: "Then, Sun Xiaoyun, according to your Netherworld's regulations, how will you arrange her after she arrives in Netherworld?"
Ji Jiuyou said, "Don't worry, I still have something to ask her."
The night passed quickly, and at 04:30 in the morning, while Shen Ma, Sheng Lian, and colleagues from the interrogation department were still sleeping, the courtyard door was gently pushed open.
Chen Hui woke up suddenly, opened his eyes, and saw Ji Jiuyou at a glance, but before he had time to stand up, Ji Jiuyou raised his hand and waved him lightly, he rolled his eyes and fell asleep on the chair again superior.
The peach tree branches behind him trembled slightly, and several branches stretched out, gently curling around Chen Hui's body a few times, wrapping the man securely.
Then, a woman's voice trembled: "What do you want to ask me?"
Standing in the yard, Ji Jiuyou looked up at the peach tree in front of him: "Sun Xiaoyun, you died in a car accident 22 years ago. You have a verdict of 'good' in the book of life and death, and you got the chance to be reincarnated. And the reason why you can bring The reason why I returned to the human world with my memory is because when you were reincarnated, you happened to encounter the monsters in the Water Jade Realm making trouble, and you ran out while taking advantage of the chaos."
Taoshu was silent for a while: "Yes."
Ji Jiuyou squinted his eyes: "It's just a weak three souls and six souls. They hide in the jar and ask their fiancé to bury the jar in the ground and plant a peach tree on it. After 50 days, the soul is attached to the peach tree." .Chen Hui is a mortal. If you believe this, you don’t have to use these words to fool me. Say, when you escaped from the Realm of Water and Jade, what did you steal in troubled waters?”
Taoshu immediately retorted: "I didn't steal it! Someone gave it to me!"
Ji Jiuyou: "Who, what did you give me?"
Peach Tree didn't speak.
Ji Jiuyou: "It doesn't matter if you don't say anything. Dig out your peach tree, cut off the root system, and see what is in the jar buried below that is helping you possess your soul." When the voice fell, the ground in the yard began to slightly sway. flutter.
Sun Xiaoyun had a lot of scruples, not only the root of the peach tree she possessed, but also the life of Chen Hui in the yard. She knew that she was no match for the man in front of her, so she had to compromise: "The ring is a ring!"
Ji Jiuyou said slowly: "Hand it over."
Sun Xiaoyun was silent for a while, and after weighing the pros and cons, the deeply buried tree roots moved slowly in the ground, and then dug out the ring from the buried jar.
Soon, the roots broke through the ground, and a white ring stained with dirt was rolled up by the thick roots of the peach tree, and slowly fell into Ji Jiuyou's flattened palm.
Ji Jiuyou looked down at the ring in his palm, and there was something flickering in his eyes, he put away his palm, squeezed the ring, and said again: "What happened to the person who gave you the ring? "
Sun Xiaoyun seemed to be remembering too, her tone of answer became a little empty, and her speaking speed naturally slowed down: "He seems to be injured..."
-
It turns out that people have emotions after death. Sun Xiaoyun felt very sad. He lost his life in a car accident, his soul was separated, and he was taken away. He has been separated from his fiancé ever since.
She was so sad that she cried all the way, sitting on a big boat full of ghosts and ghosts, surrounded by all kinds of laughing, cursing, crying and sad faces.
The people sitting around her were all older than her, and when she was crying, someone comforted her.
Tired of crying, she leaned against her grandmother to rest for a while. When she raised her eyes, she saw a wide river, with smoke from cooking houses on both sides of the river, and farmland and clothing houses, as if she had returned to the world.
Grandma wiped her tears and told her: "Look, we are in heaven."
She sniffed, but was not fooled: "No, not here."
Grandma laughed: "Of course this is heaven. Heaven is so beautiful."
She pointed to the small print on the back of the front seat for Grandma: "The Nether Soul Ship, Grandma, we are in the underworld."
Grandma: "Never mind him, anyway, this place is beautiful, it's dead, so don't be sad, my dear girl."
In fact, she was still very sad, because after that, she could never see Chen Hui again, and the bright future they had planned together was gone.
She looked up and was affected by the peaceful and beautiful scene in front of her, and felt it again for a while, thinking that Chen Hui would gradually forget about him, marry another woman, marry and start a family in the future, she suddenly felt sad and burst into tears.
This time, the more she cried, the louder the movement became, and the more she cried, the more uncomfortable she became. At the end of the crying, all the ghosts on the boat came to comfort her.
The swaying hull suddenly stopped.
A voice came from the top of the head, very soft and pleasant to hear: "Little girl, why are you crying?"
Sun Xiaoyun raised her neck, but saw a high wall in the middle of the river, a voice floated down from above, and no one answered, so Sun Xiaoyun sobbed and said, "I feel bad."
The man said: "Because of what?"
Sun Xiaoyun sniffed: "I miss my family, I miss my fiancé."
But the man said: "If you are reincarnated, you will have family members and a fiancé in the future, so don't worry about it."
But the young girl burst into tears again: "I don't want a new fiancé, I want Chen Hui! I want Chen Hui!"
In fact, there is still a gap between humans and ghosts. Humans have many obsessions that cannot be let go, but ghosts do not have deep obsessions. Their emotions gradually fade as the body and soul are separated. Naturally, it gradually dissipated as the road drifted down.
But there are always exceptions, and Sun Xiaoyun is this exception. She has a deep affection for Chen Hui, and her longing is getting stronger and stronger as the boat floats down.
The man on the high wall pondered for a while, and said slowly: "Go to the side of the boat, look into the water, and you will see your lover."
Sun Xiaoyun walked to the side of the boat.
She didn't know that the Samsara River can only see the past of this life, but it can't be fixed in a picture as one likes, but the scene reflected in the Samsara Water stopped for her. She saw Chen Hui on the water, and the picture was her 19 The scene when I met Chen Hui at the school gate for the first time when I was young.
She stared blankly at the water, and finally stopped crying.
The ecstasy boat continued westward, how did she disembark, where she went, who she met, and what she said. In the past 22 years, she has no memory at all. She only remembers in general. The trial only gave a "good" verdict, and then sent her to reincarnation in full swing.
She boarded the boat again, but this time it was not a big boat, but a medium-sized boat. There was a man standing on the bow with his back to her. Others on the boat told her that it was the extradition man who was reincarnated. You can't turn back, because reincarnation means don't turn back. Once the extraditing person looks back at someone, he will lose the opportunity to reincarnate.
She was sitting in the stern, not caring about the extraditionist, just looking at the water surface obsessively, where there was the figure of the man he loved the most.
The boat swayed, and Sun Xiaoyun didn't move at all, but when she passed the high wall again, she raised her neck to see if there was anyone on it, but she couldn't see anything clearly.
She asked her seatmate: "Who's up there?"
The neighbor said: "I also reincarnated today, I don't know."
