Hundred Ghosts

Lin Zi nodded in agreement.

"I saw it howling every day because it couldn't eat, but the more I saw it, the more my heart became hardened, so I didn't pay much attention to it." He sighed, "Then one day, I suddenly couldn't see it, I don't know what's going on, it's like a dream."

When a person grows up, his soul is stable, and he is not easily affected by these things.

Lin Zi said silently in her heart.

"Eh... No matter what, acquaintance is fate." Lin Zi said solemnly, "Whether it's a dream or not, it's worth cherishing."

He hesitated, and said softly, "To be honest, I don't like it very much."

"..."

"It's fine if you really don't have a chance with it."

"..."

Fine.

After saying goodbye to the shopkeeper, the two of them found an inn to rest for the night. Originally, Lin Zi had reserved two rooms. He Huaifei said that he and Lin Zi hadn't seen each other for a few days, and they missed him so much that they had to sleep together...

In the middle of the night, He Huai couldn't help but lamented that his life was miserable. This good-natured person was lying here, but he couldn't move his hands and feet... He could only watch helplessly like this, it was really pitiful.

Lin Zi was leaving the next day. He had the emperor's token on his body and could directly enter the palace, but he met an acquaintance at the gate of the palace.

Your Second Highness.

The handsome and beautiful Second Highness was originally sitting in the sedan chair, when he heard Lin Zi's voice, he immediately opened the curtain and looked out, smiling like a fox.

"Lin Daochang? When did you come back?"

Lin Zi saluted, "Second Highness, Wan An."

"Get up," Second Highness beckoned to him, "Come here, take His Highness's carriage."

Lin Zi hesitated for a moment and said, "This is not in line with etiquette."

"It's okay, it's okay, my highness is also here today to find the emperor, and I just happen to give you a ride."

"Then thank you, Your Highness."

The carriage stopped in front of him, and Lin Zi got into the carriage.

"I heard that the Taoist chief was kidnapped by General He... No, He Huai took him away, and he didn't come back for several months, but the emperor was in a hurry." The Second Highness said with a smile, waving his fan.

"Pindao was not taken away by him." Lin Zi said without changing his face.

I volunteered to run with him.

"Oh?"

"Pindao was taken away by ghosts."

Lin Zi brought out the set of rhetoric that had fooled the little emperor earlier.

But the Second Highness is not as easy to coax as the little emperor, "Hehe, as a Taoist priest, will Lin Daochang be abducted by ghosts?"

"That can't be helped, the poor are not deep enough."

"Forget it, forget it, let's not talk about this, by the way, do you know why my highness is looking for the emperor?"

Lin Zi shook his head.

His Highness the Second Highness smiled slyly, "The emperor got a good thing recently, Lin Daochang will find out later."

"what?"

Lin Zi also felt a little curious. In the eyes of the little emperor, precious gems and jade were nothing but gadgets. He felt that his good things must be rare in the world.

The little emperor was still in court at this time, the Second Highness directly dragged Lin Zi over, Lin Zi quickly pushed back, "Second Highness, this is absolutely impossible, it is time for the emperor to go to court."

His Highness the Second Highness snorted coldly in his heart, he would not obediently go to the court, if a person with discerning eyes could see at a glance that the traitor was in power, the little emperor existed like a puppet, but the other ministers let him go.

Even an important official like He Huai was easily thrown into prison by him... He Huai is considered good-hearted, if he were, he would have raised his troops to rebel.

"What are you afraid of? With His Highness here, you can go in without worry."

During the court meeting, the Second Highness dragged Lin Zi into the hall swaggeringly, but no one dared to say anything.

"Hello, Second Highness."

"Hello, Mr. Lin Dao..."

Lin Zi also felt that it was absurd that all those who could stand in the middle were supposed to be powerful ministers, but they actually saluted a Taoist priest to him.

"Brother Taoist, you are finally back!" The little emperor was surprised and happy, and almost jumped from the dragon chair, but the eunuch who was beside him coughed lightly, maybe he himself knew that this was not good, and sat back down again. However, his gaze remained on Lin Zi.

Lin Zi felt a chill go down his back, and looked around, the way these people looked at him... seemed to be a little wrong?

No, don't think too much, I really have nothing to do with your emperor...

"Your Majesty, what was the good thing you said yesterday? Could you let us see it now?" Second Highness asked.

The little emperor said triumphantly, "Since brother Taoist is back, let's let everyone see it."

He clapped his hands, "Come on, bring those two monsters up!"

Eight strong men carried two cages and came in. The cages were covered with red cloth, and as soon as they were lifted, there was an uproar in the hall.

There were two monsters locked in the cage, one with a pair of wings, a human body and a horse head, and the wings were blue, but with a dark halo.

The other monster was even more frightening. Its hair was emitting green flames, several feet high, burning like a candle.One eye is born on the top door, the other grows on the chin, with a strange shape and a half-moon shape. The nose has one hole facing the sky and the other hole faces the ground, like the tentacles of a snail, which sometimes protrudes and sometimes retracts. One is behind.

Anyway, it looked weird, even a little scary, and several elderly officials backed away in fright.

Seeing their reaction, the little emperor laughed, "Aren't you too timid?"

Lin Zi frowned, he could tell what it was at a glance, because the appearance in the illustration was too peculiar, and he still remembered it vividly.

It is a fast ghost, named Yasha in Sanskrit,

There are many types of yakshas, ​​one of which belongs to dakini yakshas and the other belongs to ground yakshas.

Dakini Yaksha has two wings, can fly in the air, and is ever-changing. The animal head and human body can change. The wings carry a color of light, but there is a dark light in the light. It is not only ugly, but also likes to give People cause trouble.

The ground yaksha is even more frightening. It has a terrifying image and likes to spread disasters and harm people.

"Brother Taoist, do you know what this is?" the little emperor asked.

His Highness the Second Highness and other ministers also looked at him curiously. Seeing that he was in a daze, the Second Highness poked his waist with a fan, "Speak up, you."

Lin Zi straightened his back in embarrassment, "Return to the emperor, this thing is called Yasha, and it is a kind of ghost, also known as Jieji ghost."

An adult who didn't know the official position snorted coldly, "Hmph, nonsense, do ghosts appear in broad daylight?"

Lin Zi looked at him, "My lord doesn't know that there are thousands of ghosts and ghosts in this world, some come to kill others, some simply kill others, some tease others, some help others, some give money to others, and some harm others There are those who go bankrupt, those who follow people behind to protect them silently, and those who unknowingly curl up inside human bodies to harm others... Ghosts like this are not surprising at all."

The little emperor listened with starry eyes, "Brother Taoist is really amazing!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your compliment. May I ask where did your Majesty get Yasha?"

"It was given by the small country near the sea. They said that Yasha opened the way for the Dragon King of the East China Sea, and it is just right to give it to me."

Lin Zi smiled and said, "I don't know if I can open the way, but this yaksha is a cannibal, the emperor must send someone to take care of it, and don't let it come out and harm people." Lin Zi warned.

"Really?" The little emperor raised his spirits all of a sudden.

"That's right, so the emperor wants to send someone to take good care of it..."

"That's really great," disregarding the eunuch's dissuasion, the little emperor stepped down from the dragon chair and walked around the cage twice. The two yakshas probably sensed that he was the chief culprit who caused them to be in such a situation, and grabbed him angrily. Roaring at him from the cage.

"Hmph, it's really interesting," the little emperor pointed to one of the strong men, "Come here, get closer."

"The emperor spares my life, the emperor spares my life..." Knowing what would happen to him, he was so frightened that he knelt down and begged for mercy.

Lin Zi's face changed, "Your Majesty, please don't do this..."

"It's all right," the little emperor comforted him in turn, "Yasha doesn't want to eat anymore. I can catch as many people like this as I want, and it doesn't matter if I let them eat one."

Lin Zi sweated coldly behind his back, "No, Your Highness, this is a human life!"

"Anyway, so many people die every year, it's okay to eat one more."

Lin Zi knelt on the ground, "Your Majesty, this is absolutely unacceptable. If people in the world find out, I'm afraid the Emperor will be labeled as unkind and unrighteous!"

"Presumptuous!" the minister roared just now, "Could it be that you think of the emperor so selfishly?"

"The poor dare not."

"Do you dare to be clear in your heart?"

"Shut up! Brother Taoist, get up quickly, I won't kill him." The little emperor said softly.

"The emperor is wise!" Lin Zi heaved a sigh of relief and stood up.

But then that person was pushed by a guard with a knife in front of Yaksha's cage. Yaksha stretched out his sharp claws and twisted his neck, and the sharp claws easily sliced ​​open his chest...

The blood splashed on Lin Zi's face was still warm.

The scene was so bloody that the ministers around couldn't help throwing up.

His Highness took a few steps back and covered his face with a fan.

The little emperor spread his hands in regret, "Oh! There is really no way, he ran over by himself."

"You ordered him to push him over, didn't you?" Lin Zi's eyes were red, and he stared at him viciously, regardless of the etiquette of rulers and ministers, "You did it!"

"Brother Taoist said that too much." The little emperor stretched out his hand to wipe the blood from Lin Zi's face, and said a little unhappy, "I haven't met him, obviously he did it, if brother Taoist feels angry... Why don't you push him in too?"

"Wait, stop!"

The guard with the knife walked up to Dakini Yasha by himself, and what he got was the end of that man just now.

"Oh, I'm just talking..." The little emperor glanced casually, even with a hint of a smile on his face.

But he couldn't laugh anymore, because Lin Zi looked at him like a vicious dog, "I thought His Majesty was just a child at heart, and didn't know the suffering in the world, so he saw human life clearly, but who knew that His Majesty was really cruel and merciless." , The heart of a poisonous scorpion!"
