Gui Gongzi [Green Snake]

Zhenxiang was lying on the bed, her face was sad, her eyes were blank, and she didn't move.

Someone walked into the room, Zhenxiang didn't look like a maid when she heard the movement, she thought it was Huangfu Jixun who was deliberately teasing her, so she didn't bother to poke it, she was still quiet and didn't bother to move, waiting for the other party to arrive.

One hand opened the curtain, and immediately said: "Ah Xiang."

Zhenxiang was taken aback, quickly got up, and grabbed the person who came over.

"Brother Jin—" Zhenxiang covered her mouth, looked around nervously, and said, "What are you doing here? It's not good to be discovered."

Li Jin shook his head, he held Zhenxiang's hand tightly, and said, "Go, I'll take you out of this place."

"Ah?" Zhenxiang was stunned, then shook her head again, "No, Huangfu Jixun is coming back soon, if he finds out, he will never let you go."

"I don't care." Li Jin said every word, "A few days ago, I heard that the eldest lady secretly killed three maids on the grounds that they were in collusion with Huangfu Jixun. If this continues, she will blame you sooner or later. "

As he spoke, he embraced Zhenxiang, and said in a soft voice: "I have prepared the money and the car in the past few days. We will go far away to a place where Huangfu Jixun can't find you. You don't have to worry about him. We can legitimately raise our children."

Li Jin is the person in charge of finance in the family. He is twenty-nine years old this year. He has attended school and is proficient in calculations.

In this way, he and Zhenxiang have known each other for nearly ten years.

Zhen Xiangdao hesitated: "I, I made Huangfu Jixun think that this child belongs to him. In order to convince him, I even lied to Zhenyue, so it should be fine. Escape...Where are you going? Huangfu Jixun The official is high and powerful, once he gets angry, we will let him catch us wherever we flee."

Unless he is dead.

These words sounded in Zhenxiang's heart, but she didn't dare to say them out.

Li Jin bent down, supported Zhenxiang's shoulders, and said: "Today, the eldest lady also built a stage in the yard, all decorated with bright red satin, and placed several paper figurines, and the servants walked around when they saw it." Let's go, it's really abnormal. I also heard that two days ago, there was a bloody incident in Dingguo Temple. Abbot Jingde was killed in the Buddhist hall, and his skull was thrown off. I suspect that the emperor is doing something sneaky now. , and the eldest lady may be dazzled, maybe something will happen to the general's mansion tonight... Well, don't stay here tonight, I will take you to stay outside for one night, and see the situation tomorrow. If it is appropriate, we will escape."

Zhenxiang looked at Li Jin, held his hand tightly, but after thinking about it, she said: "You can go, but if you really want to go, then take Zhenyue with you, she can't stay in this devil's lair... "

Before he could finish speaking, the door of the room was pushed open again.

Zhenxiang's heart tightened, struggling to let Li Jin leave, but Li Jin firmly protected Zhenxiang, when he saw the person who came, he asked a little strangely: "Who are you?"

***

Huangfu Jixun pushed the door open and walked into the room.

The room was very dark, the embroidered bed curtains were lowered, and a figure was vaguely sleeping inside.

Zhenxiang is still awake?

Huangfu quietly walked over, holding the curtain with one hand, wanting to see the sleeping beauty.

"Xiang'er—ahh!" The call turned into a terrified cry when he saw what was lying inside.

A blood-stained corpse was lying on the bed, the corners of the nose and eyes were covered with blood, staring at himself with unrepentant eyes.

This, isn't this the maid Han Mei?

Huangfu recalled that Hanmei used to like to post on him, but it seems that he hadn't seen her in the past few days, and unexpectedly died, and her body was stuffed into Zhenxiang's bed.

Zhenxiang didn't have the guts to do such immoral things, and Zhenyue always loved her sister, so she wouldn't do such a thing. After thinking about it, he only thought of Li Duanhua.

This poisonous woman!

Huangfu Jixun was terribly frightened by the miserable corpse beaten to death with a stick, and a burst of evil fire ignited in his heart. Seeing a decorative sword hanging on the wall, he stepped forward to take it off without hesitation, and held it in his hand. I will go to Li Duanhua to settle accounts.

But as soon as the door was pushed open, the music played by the huqin and snare drum outside was attracted.

It was already dark, and red lanterns were lit up in the General's Mansion, stretching in long strings, like a wilting fire snake, quietly lurking in the huge mansion, accompanied by the bright red lights From then on, the sound of those "dangdangdangdang" music gradually became lively.

Huangfu Jixun walked towards the source of the music with his sword in his hand, and felt something was wrong as he walked.

In the whole mansion, apart from the music, there was no other sound, and even the servants and maids were gone.

"Where are people? Come here! Are they all dead?" He stepped forward with his sword in his hand, and kicked open the gate of the garden.

Then, he let the scene in front of him be shocked in place.

A broad theater stage was built of wood and red silk, and rows of chairs were placed in front of the stage. All the servants of the General’s Mansion sat quietly, sitting motionless, facing the stage, looking fascinated, affectionate, with twitches at the corners of their mouths. laugh.

On the stage, there are a few grand master chairs in the left corner, huqin, snare drum, gong, cymbal, cymbal...all of them are available, but they are not held by people, but are paper figurines holding musical instruments. He opened his mouth and remained motionless, but the sound of music kept ringing, and it was opera music.

Huangfu looked so hairy, he couldn't help but walked forward, and kicked the servant who was closest to him.

It was the cook in the house. The big man was shaken by Huangfu's kick, but he still sat upright, staring at the stage for a moment.

Huangfu frowned and also looked at the stage.

It seemed that some brilliant drama was being performed on it, and everyone present was engrossed. At the end, when the "drama" was over, all the spectators applauded in unison. This unanimous movement made a "pop" sound, which shocked Huangfu. .

"Haunted.

"Huangfu Jixun only thought of this, his fleshy face twitched, and he turned to leave.

However, the gate of the garden suddenly closed in front of him, with a "snap", leaving no room.

This is also forced to stay.

Huangfu held the sword in his hand. He fought for many years and killed countless people. He has cultivated the spirit of killing and attacking. He was not afraid of ghosts, so he said loudly: "I don't care what you are! You are pretending to be mysterious here, come out quickly!" , Grandpa cut you with a sword!"

"Dong dong!"

On the stage, the small leather drum rang twice, and then, a cloud sleeve was thrown away, and a woman's figure came onto the stage.

"If you don't come to the next life, the back is always there, and the lovesickness will cause dust~"

The thin female voice sounded like a human voice, like a razor blade was grinding his nerves. Huangfu covered his ears with one hand, feeling like his ears were going to ring.

The actor sang lamentingly, crying and complaining every sentence: "No one who should come, no one who should love, no one who is here and no one, no one who should be here—"

"Tsk." Huangfu Jixun lost his patience, strode over, jumped onto the stage, raised his sword and was about to chop the actor.

But the actor suddenly raised his head, his bloodshot eyes met Huangfu Jixun, it was Li Duanhua.

"You..." Huangfu's sword stopped, but before he could make a move, Li Duanhua seemed to be strangled by an invisible hand, the veins under his snow-white skin rose up and throbbed, and then, he stared blankly. Watching Li Duanhua being lifted higher and higher until his feet were off the ground and he was suspended in mid-air.

The onlookers watched with a smile, Li Duanhua's throat was stuck and he couldn't move. Huangfu Jixun wanted to fish him out, but he couldn't reach the height.

Then, watching Li Duanhua roll his eyes in mid-air, stick out his tongue, completely out of breath.

Huangfu Jixun looked at Li Duanhua's body in mid-air, and felt an indescribable feeling for a while.

Although he never got along with this woman, he had traveled so much together in the early years. Now that he saw her die, he couldn't save her at all. He only felt a throbbing pain in his chest and shouted: "What ghost?" Come at me if you have the ability!"

"Clap clap clap."

There was a burst of unhurried applause, and Huangfu Jixun looked down the stage, only to see a young man in white standing where he was.

Her hair is tied up in a purple crown, she holds a folding fan in her hand, and her eyes are as beautiful as ink paintings.

"General Huangfu is so arrogant, do you know that the purpose of keeping you till the end is to settle accounts with you?"

"...Xie Xin?" Huangfu Jixun squinted his eyes for a while, and some recognized him, "So you are not dead."

Waving the paper fan, the man in white stared at the stage irresistibly, and said: "Girls, I have something to ask, and I hope that the girls will take revenge."

Huangfu thought, where did this girl come from, but a woman's voice really sounded in his ears.

"Ah, where did you come from, the young master, you look so handsome~"

"Let me take a look~ Hey, I seem to have seen it by the Lord of the Underworld."

"What do you want to do, young master? Tell us about it~~"

Every sound is different, and there is really more than one girl on this stage.

Huangfu Jixun felt a chill behind his back and wanted to go down, but his body seemed to be getting heavier and heavier, and it was very difficult to take a step.

"If it's revenge, killing him is enough. Let the innocent people go." Xie Xinlang said.

"Ah? Are you talking about these servants? But we need energy, a lot of energy, otherwise, we won't be able to survive crossing the river of forgetfulness!" A female voice yelled, very dissatisfied.

Xie Xin calmed down and said: "I am in charge of the Division of the Underworld, and I am the sect of ghosts in the world. All living beings will enter the Underworld after death, and their souls will all be under its jurisdiction. The sins committed in life will be used to kill ghosts. Punish ghosts... Do you believe it or not, even if you kill an innocent person in this place, even if you cross the Naihe Bridge, the ghosts of the underworld can still send you to the Infernal Hell according to the calendar?"

When those ghosts heard this, they seemed to be a little stunned, but there were some who didn't believe it, and shouted to Xie Xin: "You scare me!"

Xie Xin looked coldly at the pounced ghost, and with just one folding fan, the ghost fan was completely dizzy, and half of the three souls and six souls were almost scattered.

This is a capable person, I can't afford to mess with it.

The dead souls were afraid of Xie Xin, but they didn't dare to make a real move against him.

Seeing that the time is ripe, Xie Xin said slowly: "If you just need to support your energy to cross the river, I can make it easier for you."

Hearing that there is a way to alleviate it, the female ghosts appeared one after another, floating above the stage, looking at Xie Xin eagerly.

"How?"

"I'm acquainted with Black and White Impermanence, and I can lend them a soul-guiding lamp to lead you, and the light of this thing will protect you from losing your shape, and you can cross the river and bridge safely." Saying that, Xie Xin took out a lamp.

The lamp is made of quaint brass. It was made by the secret religion in the past, and the recipe for it is gone, but the raw materials are still known.

The mortal lamp burns oil, while the soul lamp burns human life.

Female ghosts, look at me, I look at you, one of them who seemed to have some prestige came out, and said to Xie Xin: "Young master ghost, I will obey your words and not hurt these mortals, but this Huangfu Jixun, we Absolutely don't let it go."

Xie Xin raised his hand openly: "If you want to kill or cut, you can do whatever you want."

Poor Huangfu Jixun, the moment those female ghosts appeared, they were already so frightened that they collapsed to the ground.

Only now did he feel his body was heavy. It turned out that there were several female ghosts sitting on his shoulders, so close, their miserable faces were hanging above his head!

Unexpectedly, there are so many ghosts around this empty place, and the female ghost who came forward to make peace just now looks so familiar.

"Zhen, Zhenhua..." Huangfu Jixun recognized who the female ghost was.

Zhenhua floated in the air, looked sharply at the people on the ground, and shouted: "Old man, I can't even get close to you because of my hostility, so I have to let my two daughters come to you, and put your whole body on the ground. The killing spirit of the bodyguard is wiped away bit by bit."

two daughters?

After hearing this, Huangfu Jixun had a terrible idea in his heart.

"What did you say..." He pointed at Zhenhua tremblingly, "You mean, Zhenyue and Zhenxiang..."

"Yes, this is your seed, General Huangfu." Zhenhua raised her head and laughed loudly, "You married your own daughter, how do you feel?"

Huangfu was furious for a moment, lowered his head, and even spit out a mouthful of blood.

"Hehe, don't worry, you have never succeeded in getting your hands on those sisters. I taught them to protect themselves well. If you hadn't spent a lot of money, they wouldn't be able to redeem themselves from that brothel for a while. Huangfu Jixun, you It can be regarded as a good deed." Zhenhua said coldly, and flew down from mid-air.

"You are messing around and harming my daughter! Zhenxiang has it..." Huangfu Jixun glared at Zhenhua with blood on his face.

The latter smiled nonchalantly, and said, "You are unkind and unrighteous, so how can He De have children, Huangfu Jixun?"

"What do you mean?"

"My Xiang'er is not pregnant with your child." Zhenhua said, turning sideways while talking.

Huangfu Jixun saw with his own eyes that Li Jin was helping Zhenxiang to walk out of the door. When he saw himself, a trace of disgust flashed in his eyes, so he stopped looking at this side and went straight to the door, where Zhenyue was leading the carriage. wait for them.

Looking at Li Jin and Zhenxiang's clenched hands, Huangfu Jixun's eyes turned red.

"Everyone tricks me, everybody tricks me—" Huangfu raised his sword and struck at Zhenhua.

The sword pierced through the incorporeal body, and slashed heavily on the wood on one side, Huangfu's mouth went numb, and he didn't even hold the sword.

"Qian donkeys are poor, so there's no way out," Zhenhua smiled, raised her head and called out, "Girls, come here? If you have a grudge, you have revenge."

The female ghosts laughed and jumped down, obliterating the figure.

The huge General's Mansion became lively again.

Xie Xin looked at everything on the stage, and remembered the words that Xie Yu often taught him - everything requires a clear conscience.

People should not do too many evil things, good and bad will be rewarded, and if they do too many bad things, they will be punished.
