Dazed

Back in the dormitory, before he had time to catch his breath, there was another knock on the door.

Strangely, Qi Zheng opened the door, but saw an unexpected man.

Liu En, who has been haggard since the death of his wife, looked more like a ghost now, with a pale complexion, prominent cheekbones, dark eye sockets, and dull eyes. It was only a few days since we last met in the factory. , but people were destroyed like this, people can't help but wonder what happened to him these days?

"What do you want me to do?" Qi Zheng stepped aside and let Liu En, who was outside the house, enter the house.

However, Liu En, who was obviously restless, couldn't hide his panic even if he entered the room. He stood at the door of Qi Zheng, rubbing his hands together, and after a long while, he finally asked slowly: "Qi Zheng , You said you saw my wife when I went to the factory to resign a few days ago?"

"Huh?" Qi Zheng gave him a suspicious look, and said lightly, "Didn't she die at that time?"

"Yes!" These words seemed to turn on Liu En's switch, and he began to chatter: "She obviously left, and the body was cremated, but these days, why do I see her all the time, she It just stopped on my back, I saw her when I looked in the mirror, I saw her when I washed my face, and even looked at the window of my own home, her figure was backward, I had resigned, and she was still following Me, but she was already in the park on the 21st..."

Having said that, he suddenly stopped talking, his face turned blue and white, Qi Zheng looked at him expressionlessly, the expression on his face remained unchanged from the beginning to the end, but those cold and merciless eyes The eyes seemed to dig out the secret deep in his heart, which made him tremble with fear.

The room was quiet for a while, and after a while, Qi Zheng couldn't help but said: "If you can't stand it, you can ask a Taoist priest to do it. It's useless to ask me."

Liu En returned subconsciously: "I have invited Taoist priests, but it's useless."

"That has nothing to do with me." Qi Zheng refused very simply, but the cold words pierced the man's ears, making him shiver uncontrollably, but Qi Zheng still stared at him undisguisedly, The deep words sounded a bit timid, and he said indifferently: "If you are haunted by a ghost, you should go to a Taoist priest. If you kill someone, you will pay for your life. It's as simple as that."

With a bang, the man's complexion suddenly turned pale, like a wall painted with white paint. Taking advantage of the thick black mist on his forehead, he looked at him almost as if he had stepped into a coffin.

"If there's nothing else, you can leave." Qi Zheng didn't hide his disgust. Looking at this man's face, he knew that he should not live long.

In fact, it doesn't necessarily require the police to do anything. There is a cause and an effect, and revenge must be reported. This is a ghost.

He's seen it too many times.

The man stiffened, and when he was kicked out of Qi Zheng's house without a master, it seemed that there was still a ghost behind him.

Qi Zheng watched the man leave without squinting, and when he caught sight of the wronged soul, he suddenly became thoughtful.

People say that Liu En's daughter-in-law is beautiful, well-educated, and a high-achieving student. It is condescending to marry Liu En, who has nothing, but those who know the inside story know that Liu En's daughter-in-law hurt too much when she fell in love. Occasionally, she will develop some mental illness, and when she does, Liu En will take her to find that heartbroken man...

Maybe I just set up a team to make do with it, and I got tired after a long time...

The next day, the excitement at the construction site spread. Liu En himself went to the police station and surrendered, admitting that because he couldn't bear the tired marriage, he planned to drown his wife in the lotus pond.

The day Liu En was imprisoned happened to be the seventh day of his wife’s first seven years. The grand funeral was even bigger than the wedding. In addition to the funeral band, there was a row of foreign orchestras in front. Spread it all over the sky, paving a thick layer on the road ahead.

Liu En even invited all the workers on the construction site, so Qi Zheng also took a black cloth and walked forward with the funeral procession.

The noisy funeral attracted all the residents along the road to stand beside the road and look up as if watching the excitement. Qi Zheng was also among the crowd. Only he can see the soul.

The beautiful woman turned into an illusory soul after death, her face was pale, and she followed the team with a blank expression. Her hair was loose, and because she died of drowning before her death, the whole wandering soul was also a little swollen, and her tongue was exposed , looks very permeable.

Seemingly noticing that someone could see him, the female ghost, who had been staring blankly, gradually turned her eyes to the man standing by the roadside, her eyeballs moved slightly, as if there was some reaction.But she still floated at the front of the team calmly, without any movement.

Qi Zheng frowned, but in broad daylight, the female ghost really couldn't do anything, so he wasn't too worried.

It's just that he has some doubts in his heart. After a person dies, he becomes a ghost. What happens after the ghost leaves?Go to hell to reincarnate?

Unknowingly, the long funeral procession has left the suburbs and arrived at the hilltop in the outskirts of the city. There is a crematorium in the hills. An Xin went to hell.

The destination has been reached, the person who carried the coffin put two black wooden stools in the middle of the road, put the coffin on them, and then untied the rope.A few monks who had been following the team came out, temporarily set up a wooden table, put the incense burner that had been following the team on it, and then began to knock on the wooden fish and recite scriptures in circles.

The chanting master was full of energy, and the chattering Buddhist scriptures floated out of his mouth with some weird feelings, and the voice of the scriptures changed from time to time, sometimes it sounded like whimpering.

This is a song for the soul, calling out the impermanence of black and white, and sending ghosts to hell.

Sure enough, when the monk finished reading the scriptures and waited with his eyes closed, two shadows, one black and one white, suddenly appeared from the empty mountain. They were wearing tall paper hats, their faces were pale, but their eyes were as black as ink. The robes were only one black and one white, one was holding an iron lock, and the other was holding a notebook and a pen. After appearing, they all stood beside the female ghost.

The ghost in white lowered his head, looked at it carefully from top to bottom, from left to right, from front to back, then shook his head, took a cinnabar pen to tick the booklet, and The man in black beside him said, "That's right, it was her, Zhang Xue, who died at the age of three or two, drowned, and died unjustly."

With a cold face, the man in black put the iron chain around the female ghost's neck expressionlessly, and then said to the people around him, "Can you go now?"

The man in white pinched his fingers and thought about it, and said: "It's still a moment away, wait a little longer."

There is enough time, so the two ghosts are not in a hurry. At this moment, they lifted their legs, one left and one right, and sat on top of the coffin.

The three sticks of incense in the censer had been burning all the time, emitting lingering smoke that rose slowly and drifted past the tip of the noses of the two ghosts. The two ghosts took a deep breath at the same time and sniffed the Buddhist incense specially enshrined to them in the air. He sucked his mouth and said: "This fragrance is not bad, it's made by Heimu, and it's mellow enough."

Bai Yi was a little disdainful, and sighed, "It's just a fingernail. You said that this family is really ignorant. Just offering such a few sticks of incense is not enough for me to inhale for a while. How stingy."

"Stop talking nonsense, it's time to go." Hei Wuchang obviously didn't have that many demands.

After chatting for a while, the few sticks of incense in the incense burner were almost burned to the end, and the few monks who were reading the scriptures also put away their posture, apparently about to leave.

Also at this time, Bai Yi waved his sleeves, extinguished the incense, and said: "It's time, let's go."

The two ghosts jumped up and down, then left and right, led the female ghost and began to walk into the mountain, walking slowly, but jumping again and again.

However, at this moment, when the funeral here was about to start back, the female ghost suddenly turned around, staring straight at Qi Zheng, who was watching him in the crowd, and opened her eyes. lips, slowly said: "Come with me."

Qi Zheng, who was still like an outsider, couldn't help but widen his eyes, his expression was a little surprised, but when he watched the three shadows gradually walk into the forest with doubts, he couldn't suppress the impulse in his heart.

This opportunity is rare, and I don't know if I can know the whereabouts of Cao Jingxing?

His heart tightened, the female ghost's gaze seemed to catch all the little thoughts in his heart like a hook, Qi Zheng clenched his fists, struggling with hesitation on his face for a while, finally, he still couldn't help it. Live and keep up.

As if aware that Qi Zheng had taken the bait, the female ghost who had been locked in black and white suddenly smiled slightly, but her eyes were gloomy. The three ghosts walked forward slowly, through the forest, and then, Then he entered a place that looked like a tunnel, and after that, the surrounding scenery was pitch black, as if he had entered another world.

When Qi Zheng got out of the tunnel, he was a little surprised, but he had already reached the other side, and it was impossible to walk again. The three figures not far away were still walking unsteadily, as if they were guiding him forward.

After settling his expression, Qi Zheng followed cautiously, but the surrounding environment was really infiltrating. Green ghost lights appeared from time to time, barely providing some brightness. Dirt, thick trees, and animal bones, it seems like a ghostly place.

Suddenly, Qi Zheng quickly hid behind a piece of soil, and the three shadows in front seemed to stop.

The only woman in the team opened her mouth, and said in a rough voice like nails grinding a blackboard, "You two officers, there seems to be something following us?" Her eyes were fixed on him all the time. The two people beside them had their tongues dangling in their mouths, as if they were still drooling.

"Something?" The black and white ghost envoys looked at each other, and after a while, Bai Chang said, "Impossible, is there anything that can follow us?"

"It's a person." The female ghost couldn't wait to return. After speaking, she turned around, stared straight at Qi Zheng who was hiding behind the mound, and said slowly: "I just saw it."

Qi Zheng frowned when he heard the voice, his whole body tensed up, and he began to enter a fighting state.

"How come there are living people following?" Hei Chang frowned, and said, "Could it be that you hooked up the wrong person just now?"

"You fart," Bai Chang replied unceremoniously: "You put the iron lock on, I just recognize ghosts."

However, after saying this, Bai Chang also set his eyes on the mound, took a dark step, and said fiercely: "It is impossible for ordinary people to step into the way of ghosts." Hei Chang collided and said slowly: "Unless he is a Taoist priest!"

"Taoist?" Hei Chang snorted softly, and said lightly: "It is considered that a stranger who stepped into the ghost world at will has crossed the boundary, and he will be escorted to the king of Hades."

The female ghost couldn't help being stunned when she heard the words, and said: "Do you still want to give it to the King of Hades?"

"Otherwise?" Bai Chang glanced at her arrogantly, his eyes were sharp, as if he wanted to see through the little secret in her heart, and said: "If you step into the ghost world, you will be under the jurisdiction of the underworld, whether you are a Taoist priest or a monk, look at me." If you are caught, you must be fried in a frying pan."

"And you," he changed his subject, stared at the female ghost closely, and said, "Maybe you can increase your skill a little by sucking Yang Qi, but your current skill is not enough."

The female ghost turned pale after being trained, and dared not answer.

Here, Bai Chang asked Hei Chang to hold the female ghost, turned his head to stare at the suspicious place, stepped forward slowly, and threatened in a slow manner: "The arms and legs are half-familiar, the head and feet are nine-fifth, the brain is born, the stomach The oil is squeezed, and the kidneys, liver, spleen and lungs are made into water, I think everyone will like it very much."

Qi Zheng, who could obviously hear this, felt as if ten thousand muddy horses were whizzing by in his heart. The danger was close at hand, and there was nothing to resist him. He could imagine what would happen to him if he faced that ghost face to face, but He was still waiting there unswervingly, firmly holding the talisman paper Tao Qinghui gave him in his hand, his heart was beating so hard that even he could hear the sound, the sweat on his forehead dripped down and became wet. His hair, and even his back, burst into cold sweat.

The sound of light footsteps is getting closer and closer, like danger is approaching step by step, everyone present is waiting impatiently to see which unlucky mouse dares to follow this kind of place. .

While everyone was waiting with tense nerves, suddenly, Bai Chang, who was about to walk to the front of the mound, stopped abruptly, his face was a little caught off guard, behind him, the female ghost who had just been detained Before she could scream, her head fell to the ground, and her whole body became a cloud of smoke. The souls scattered in all directions slowly drifted towards the northwest corner, which was the direction of the sea of ​​bitterness.

In less than a moment, Black and White Wuchang looked at the iron locks that fell on the ground, and suddenly realized that they all knelt down and said in unison: "Yazhu!"

"Get out of here." A mysterious voice sounded in the ears of Black and White Wuchang, but there was no sound in the illusory air.

Black and White Wuchang was still kneeling, Bai Chang's face was a bit miserable, he never thought that Cao Jingxing would reappear after being imprisoned for many years and his strength should not be underestimated, so he said: "Master Cliff, there are Taoist priests following us."

The deep voice was a little impatient, and returned indifferently: "I will deal with it, you leave immediately."

"Yes." The two ghost messengers returned respectfully with their heads down. In just a moment, the two ghosts realized that the oppressive pressure disappeared immediately, and they both stood up. Bai Chang was curious and still wanted to He took a few steps forward to see what happened, but Hei Chang grabbed him violently, shook his head lightly, the two looked at each other, and finally left.

Qi Zheng, who was still waiting with tense nerves, heard the two strange words of black and white impermanence, and then he heard nothing again, and it was as quiet as a hairless place.

Frowning and waiting for a while, there was still no sound, Qi Zheng relaxed a bit, and leaned out of the shelter, as expected, the world in front of him was pitch black, but there were no ghosts.

The situation just now is like a dream, the water moon mirrors the flowers, drifting away and disappearing.

Qi Zheng didn't know what the sudden change was, but from the moment he stepped in, he began to have a strange feeling, the familiar smell lingering around, appeared again.

"Day!" He cursed angrily, looking at the barren scenery in front of him, Qi Zheng still didn't have that much patience after all, he stared at the surroundings with a gloomy face, and simply gritted his teeth and said: "Cao Jingxing , do you fucking love to show up or not, hide if you love to hide, a three-year-old kid is playing hide-and-seek, I'm trying my best to find you, but I'm sorry for your parents, since you're fine now, then we'll be clear, We will not owe each other in the future!"

The deep words circulated in the air again, still without sound.

Qi Zheng couldn't help but took a deep breath, and said, "Okay, we will treat each other as strangers from now on, goodbye."

After saying this, Qi Zheng just felt that he was a big fool, why did he spend so much time looking for someone, that guy Cao Jingxing might be more happy, seeing him gossip around, the more he thought about it, the more angry he was, the anger in his body was simply Nowhere to vent.

However, at this very moment, in the originally dark underworld, slowly floating green spots of light, like stars in the night sky, more and more spots of light gathered, looking like a river of stars at a glance.

Layers upon layers of dense green lights float in the vast darkness, as spectacular as the vast universe, and suddenly the bright lights wave slowly, posing in different shapes, up and down, left and right, warm and romantic , quite soothing, made Qi Zheng stunned suddenly, but the scene looked like... like some courtship scene in those stupid idol dramas.

Qi Zheng was surprised at first, but when he realized that he was being treated like a little girl, several veins popped out on his forehead. He looked up at the bright scene, his face was both embarrassing and angry, and then he became angry from embarrassment , raised his head and growled viciously like a ferocious beast: "The surname is Cao! If you are paralyzed, you'd better get out of Lao Tzu's world!"

"Don't show up for the rest of your life."

He still stared into the distance with lingering anger, but his voice gradually faded away, but he still didn't respond at all, and seemed to be very powerless on the contrary.
