Jinyiwei work report

"What are you doing? Let me go!" Xie Zhongyu shouted.

Li Zhen came back to his senses and pushed him to Taoist Tao's side, "Before you are completely sure of your identity, you'd better not act rashly."

Xie Zhongyu muttered in dissatisfaction: "So what I did just now was to remind Song Yingbai of who I am."

Tao Taoist taught his disciple, "Be more cautious."

"You are... Yao Lingyao?" Song Yingbai remembered that when he ordered the dog to do something for him, he tapped its wet nose.

Xie Zhongyu raised his eyebrows, and smiled triumphantly: "That's right, it's me!" As he spoke, he wanted to move forward again, apparently intending to let Song Yingbai take a good look at himself.

Li Zhen hummed in his heart, it really is that ugly dog. He stretched his arms in front of Song Yingbai to prevent him from going any further, "You'd better explain the ins and outs first."

Xie Zhongyu didn't like Li Zhen either. He used to hate him as a dog, but now that he's turned back into a human, he still hates him. The two may not get along.

"Teacher, people are asking, tell me, how did you get into trouble?"

"I have to say it." Xie Zhongyu was a little embarrassed, but knowing that this matter could not be avoided, he had no choice but to say: "I was attacked by a stone demon. He occupied my body and sealed me in a white dog. Inside the body. You all know the rest of the matter, but luckily my master came out in time and killed the stone demon this morning, so you don’t have to worry anymore.”

Song Yingbai finally understands why Yao Lingyao pays so much attention to the calendar, and is willing to wait for the day when Master leaves the customs.

He thought about it quite openly, and ran away if he couldn't beat him. He should eat and drink, and then waited for the master to save him.

Li Zhen mocked: "It's the first time I heard that the Taoist priest failed to catch the monster, but was sealed by the monster instead."

Xie Zhongyu couldn't hold back, "There are all kinds of situations in this world."

Tao Tao said: "Anyway, I am very grateful to the two of you who rescued my disciple when he was in trouble. If there is anything that can be useful to the poor, feel free to speak up."

Song Yingbai was taken aback, and immediately said: "Actually, I have an unfeeling request, I hope the Taoist priest will help. A servant in the mansion fell into the water and died yesterday. I wonder if we can summon his soul and bring him back to life."

Li Zhen said, "You mean Caifeng?"

Hearing Caifeng's name, Xie Zhongyu was extremely shocked, "Caifeng is dead?" Seeing Song Yingbai nodding helplessly, he turned around and begged his master, "You must find a way to save him, he also took care of his disciples. Son."

Tao Zhenren thought, how much debt of favor do you little bastard owe? !

"As long as Pindao can do it, he must go all out. It's not too late, let's set up an altar."

Seeing the hope, Song Yingbai said happily: "I'll order someone to set up the Taoist altar!" As he spoke, he happily ran to the door to find someone to set up the Taoist altar.

When Song Yingbai left, Xie Zhongyu said in confusion, "Hey, besides Caifeng, who else died? Why is Song Yingbai wearing hemp and mourning?"

"The monster who took your body planned to take over the house with Song Yingbai's uncle. Fortunately, we found out in time, otherwise Song Yingbai's uncle would be living in Song Yingbai's body now." Li Zhen looked at Xie Zhongyu coldly, "Since you know that he is a dangerous monster, We should find a way to remind us."

"Ah?" Xie Zhongyu said in surprise: "They still want to continue to seize the house? I thought that the stone demon would occupy my body and make friends with the court officials, just to seek wealth and honor, but I didn't expect it to continue to harm people."

Tao Zhenren sighed: "Fortunately, there was no further disaster."

At this time Song Yingbai ran in, "Okay, I've already asked someone to get ready, and Caifeng's body is also here." He said to Xie Zhongyu, "Do you want to come and see him?"

Of course Xie Zhongyu wanted it, "Take me there quickly." Then he urged Master: "Let's go quickly!"

Li Zhen only felt that everything was awkward, but he couldn't tell what was awkward. If he had to say it, it was that Song Yingbai, Xie Zhongyu, and Caifeng seemed to be very close to each other, which made him look like an outsider.

Song Yingbai stepped over the threshold with one foot, turned back to Li Zhen and said, "Let's go, how boring are you here by yourself?" He knew he didn't like Caifeng, but everyone else left, so he couldn't be left alone. here.

"Then go and have a look." Li Zhen followed Song Yingbai's pace.

The four of them arrived at a side room, and Caifeng's body was parked inside. The coffin and shroud had been changed, because his family was out of town, and his family members would not be able to arrive in a while, so it was more convenient for the corpse to be parked first. resurrection.

Xie Zhongyu glanced at Caifeng's pale corpse, shook his head and sighed unbearably, "How could this be...he cooks delicious food."

Tao Zhenren looked at Caifeng's face, "Your life is not yet over, if the soul is not locked away by the ghost messenger, if it is still lingering nearby, there is no problem in reviving the soul, but if the ghost messenger has already locked him away, I am afraid that the poor Can't help either."

"Master, can't you use all your strength to snatch him back from the ghost messenger?"

"Stupid boy, each world has its own rules! The soul no longer belongs to this world when it is in the hands of ghost guards. It must go where it should go." Tao Zhen said.

Xie Zhongyu snorted, "Okay." Turning his eyes, he had other thoughts in his mind.

Song Yingbai said: "If he is really locked away, there is no way to do it. I hope you are lucky."

"Pindao does his best."

-

At night, the Dharma altar was set up. Tao Zhenren and other altars set up hexagram arrays in four directions of the Dharma altar, inserted soul-calling flags, and displayed incense candles, guiding rice, papers for rebirth, and money on the table. The real person holds a flag in his right hand and a talisman in his left, recites mantras, and performs the Dharma.

Xie Zhongyu was on the sidelines.

Song Yingbai stood aside and watched obediently, while Li Zhen hugged his shoulders and raised his chin slightly, looking like a spectator.

"I'm here today to look for the true spirit. If there is any offense, don't blame it. I hope to help and quickly reveal the true spirit. Taishang Laojun is as urgent as a law!" Tao Zhenren finished reading and looked at his disciples.

Xie Zhongyu held the guiding rice in his hand at this time, and threw it in four directions.

At the same time Tao Zhenren cooperated with burning the paper of death and recited the mantra again.

Song Yingbai looked at Caifeng who was lying in the coffin, he was still lying there straight, there was nothing strange in the air, not even a strange draft.

Everything was a complete disappointment.

Sure enough, after a while, Master Tao shook his head and said, "The soul is no longer here."

Song Yingbai couldn't hide the sadness in his tone, "...Since you can't recruit them back, you must have entered the underworld."

Xie Zhongyu said dejectedly: "How can this happen? He is too unlucky. He died for more than a day, and his soul was taken away. When did the ghost messenger get so serious."

Tao Zhenren said helplessly to Song Yingbai: "I'm sorry, but I can't help you."

"Thank you, I'm sorry." Song Yingbai said politely: "Life and death are impermanent, and this is something that can't be helped."

Li Zhen looked up to see that it was getting late, and started to talk about business, "Renren Tao, you come to Beijing this time, do you know where you are staying?" He is not really interested in where Tao Zhenren is staying, what he really cares about is where Xie Zhongyu lives, " Will you return to the Duke's Mansion with me later?"

Xie Zhongyu didn't believe that Li Zhen had good intentions, "Forget it, I appreciate your kindness, the stone demon has been eliminated, and I can live here with peace of mind."

Before Li Zhen could react, Tao Zhenren said first, "You have recovered your human body, why bother you?! You and I went to find your uncle. He has a house given by the emperor outside the palace. It is more than enough to accommodate you and me."

"Why are you looking for Master Uncle? He's so annoying." Xie Yuzhong muttered in a low voice, then took advantage of Master's unpreparedness, and mouthed to Song Yingbai: "Cai Feng, don't be buried."

Taoist Tao said: "Then don't bother, let's take our leave."

After bidding farewell to Song Yingbai and Li Zhen, he grabbed his apprentice and walked out. Xie Zhongyu turned back to Song Yingbai and said, "I'll come to you another day."

Li Zhen only felt itchy palms.

After seeing off the pair of Taoist masters and apprentices, Li Zhen and Song Yingbai went to the mourning hall. According to the custom, "filial sons" have to keep watch all night and must not leave half a step. Although they are fake father and son, they have to be real for outsiders to see.

"I think Xie Zhongyu is really grateful to you."

Song Yingbai's expression was a bit complicated, "How should I put it, the dog suddenly turned into a human, and it's still the face of the guy who wanted to harm me before, it always feels weird."

To put it in a hurtful way, he still thinks it's good to be a dog with black dots on a white background, that's the only way to be cute.

"That's right, that's right, I think so too." Li Zhen echoed, "If my horse suddenly turned into a human, with the face of someone I hated before, I would definitely not be able to bear it."

Unexpectedly, Song Yingbai changed the subject and said: "However, he is a unit after all, and he has a good personality. He can also be a friend in the future."

Li Zhen felt uncomfortable, and explained to himself that the more friends the better, Song Yingbai can't just have himself as a friend.

Think so, but the situation has not improved, and it is still not a good taste.

So he changed the subject, "The matter has come to an end, you should think about your uncle's funeral, how long will he be dead, and where will he be buried?"

"Stop working... I plan to stop Sanqi for 21 days. Anyway, the weather is getting colder, and there are ice cubes, so preservation is not a problem. Stopping Sanqi is a big deal, and it sounds good to say it. Who told me to be an adopted person. Well, it’s shabby and needs to be taken care of by others. As for the cemetery, I will choose a geomantic place for him in the suburbs of Beijing, and if I have time in the future, I will bury him in the ancestral grave in my hometown.”

"Well, it's good to deal with it this way." Li Zhen thought that Song Yingbai had become rich after this battle, and said with a smile: "You should take a good inventory of the property he left you at home these few days, and I will come to see you when I have time. "

-

In the next few days, Li Zhen only came to take a look after he was released from the office, because the Song family had nothing to do without him, so he didn't stay long every time, and usually asked two things, "Is everything going well today?" Xie Zhongyu didn't have another accident, did he?"

Strange to say, since Xie Zhongyu was taken away by Taoist Taoist that day, he hasn't appeared again for six consecutive days.

Just when Li Zhen was praying that Tao Taoist would capture him and go back to Longhu Mountain.

In the evening of that day, Xie Zhongyu came suddenly. When they met, they first glanced at Li Zhen indifferently, and then said to Song Yingbai with a smile, "Let's rescue Caifeng tonight!"

When Song Yingbai heard this, he became energetic, "Save Caifeng?"

Li Zhen propped his chin with one hand, without saying a word, watching their conversation with cold eyes.

Xie Zhongyu smiled proudly: "Kung fu pays off, I have performed very well these few days, and finally persuaded Master to allow me to stay in the capital."

The corner of Li Zhen's mouth twitched, "Your master is miserable, I'm afraid I don't know what animal to save you from next time."

"..." Xie Zhongyu decided to ignore Li Zhen, and continued: "I stay in the capital, and I will be taken care of by my uncle, and I will not stay in vain. I will assist my uncle to serve the emperor. Anyway, the important thing is that I will be there before today. , sent Master back to Longhu Mountain, guess why I tried to send Master away before tonight?"

Song Yingbai couldn't figure it out, and became interested, "Why?" He vaguely felt that Xie Zhongyu should have a way to rescue Caifeng.

"Because tonight is the first seven days of maple harvesting. Seven days after death, people are allowed to return to the world from the underworld to see the place where they lived before. 'Hold him. So, we just need to take advantage of the time when the Sha God besieged Caifeng's soul to return to Sha tonight, hide the soul, and then move the soul into the body, wouldn't the person be alive?"

Without waiting for Song Yingbai to question, Li Zhen immediately said: "You are a ghost messenger for nothing?"

"Hey, it's really dry food. Let me tell you, this group of ghost messengers is poor and busy, everyone is hungry, as if they have never seen food, we only need to cook a table of good food, this guy will definitely be seated Eat it fiercely, and wait until the cock crows at dawn, even if he finds that Cai Feng's soul is gone, but he can't find it in time, so he can only admit his bad luck and go back."

Song Yingbai hesitated and said, "Is this too risky? Is it so easy for the ghost messenger to fool you?"

"Really, one counts as one, and I forget everything when I eat."

Li Zhen said casually: "Since it's so easy, why didn't your master think of it?"

"He is old-fashioned. He thinks that when a person dies, he should go wherever he can. But someone as good as Caifeng died like this. Who would be willing to die like this. If he is gone, who will take care of our Master Song?" As he said, he turned to Song Yingbai direction, blinked.

Li Zhen endured and endured, and then said: "I don't think it's right. Things will never be as easy as you think. If it's so simple, so many families who have lost their relatives in the world have done it."

Xie Zhongyu saw that Li Zhen kept choking on him, "Anyway, Caifeng is not taking care of you, you don't feel it, you can ask Song Yingbai to see if he is willing?"

Li Zhen looked at Song Yingbai, and saw him biting his lip slightly, as if he was in a dilemma, and finally said: "If you don't try it, you won't be reconciled." If Caifeng hadn't been trying to cover him, she wouldn't have died.

Xie Zhongyu snapped his fingers, "That's right."

Li Zhen snorted softly, "I'm not surprised that you dare to go down the mountain alone to catch the stone demon."

"Just give it a try, if it doesn't work, stop immediately." Song Yingbai said, then looked at Li Zhen, seeking his advice with his eyes.

"Since you want to try it, try it." Xie Zhongyu will give you a chance to let you dance, Li Zhen said: "But you have to prepare three blank tablets and pens and ink for me."

"What are you doing?" Song Yingbai asked in confusion, but Li Zhen must have his reasons for wanting it.

Li Zhen finally found a chance, smiled and tapped the tip of Song Yingbai's nose, "Follow me."

Song Yingbai froze for a moment, frowned and said with a smile that was not a smile: "What are you doing, whoever touches the tip of my nose in the future, I'm in a hurry with whomever."

Xie Zhongyu stuck out half of his tongue, muttering in his heart, hum, learn from me.

-

The plan is set, and it can be done as it is said. After all, it is the mourning period, and it is reasonable not to eat meat or drink alcohol, but in order to entertain ghosts, I secretly ordered the small kitchen to prepare a table of meat dishes and drinks.

Fortunately, after the butler's "suicide", the whole family was terrified of Song Yingbai, not to mention eating wine, even eating people, no one dared to talk about it.

Soon the wine and dishes were placed on the table in the side room where Caifeng lived before his death. The wine and dishes were fragrant and very attractive.

Song Yingbai sniffed the taste: "It's not as delicious as Caifeng."

Li Zhen put the three plaques in his arms upside down on the table. He didn't say to let other people see. What is written on it.

At this time, Xie Zhongyu took out a cloth bag from his sleeve, "I brought this from my uncle. I will wait for Cai Feng to come in later, and put this on his head to ensure that the ghost guard will not notice his existence. Yes Oh, there are still talisman papers here, everyone sticks one on the forehead, and then try to hold your breath, so that the ghosts will not be able to find us."

After speaking, he pulled Song Yingbai's sleeve to hide behind the screen.

After the two of them squatted behind the screen, Li Zhen came late, then aimed at the middle of the two and squeezed in.

Xie Zhongyu said dissatisfied: "Isn't there a place next to me, you have to squeeze here?"

Li Zhen didn't speak, but just came to the middle, there was no way, Song Yingbai and Xie Zhongyu each moved a little out to let him in.

So the three crouched behind the screen and waited.

After being silent for a while, Xie Zhongyu said: "I said Master Li, you are here to toss with us, you don't have a good rest, aren't you afraid of delaying Jin Yiwei's affairs?"

Li Zhen said: "I said Yaolingyao, you have lived in my house anyway, why do you have such a different attitude towards me and Song Yingbai?"

"..." It's actually very simple. Li Zhen has always bothered him. After he arrived at his house, he was handed over to his servants to take care of him. He never gave him a look. How can he compare with Song Yingbai? Quan Xiang reported that he couldn't be too ungrateful, and said hypocritically: "No, thank you too."

Song Yingbai wasn't surprised that the two of them were at odds, because at that moment, Li Zhen didn't like Yao Lingyao, and it didn't make sense for him to become a human being.

He forcibly changed the subject, "By the way, Xie Zhongyu, when you were at Uncle An's house, why did you look into his window? At that time, I really thought you were a dog demon."

"Ah, you said that, because I found that their faces have changed recently, and they have a disaster appearance. I wanted to see it more clearly, but you discovered it unexpectedly, and you said I was a dog demon. That's right, that's right, You lied to me and said that you fed me poison, and I really believed it." Xie Zhongyu talked about the past with relish.

"You know how to meet each other, so do you think I've been lucky recently?" Song Yingbai talked to Xie Zhongyu across Li Zhen.

Li Zhen was upset, but there was nothing he could do.

"Hmm...you, you have good fortune in wealth and love recently." Xie Zhongyu smiled.

Li Zhen finally couldn't bear it any longer, "Shhh - there seems to be some movement!"

Both Song Yingbai and Xie Zhongyu pricked up their ears to listen, but they didn't hear any movement. They were about to speak again, but suddenly they heard the door creak, and it seemed that something had come in.

They tried their best to hold their breath, only to feel that the airflow around them had changed, and the cold wind came from nowhere, and was moving near the ground.

Two figures, one long and one short, appeared on the ground. The long one was judged to be Caifeng, and the short one should be the "Shashen" ghost.

Standing still for a while, I saw the short shadow move, and then heard the sound of chopsticks touching the plate, accompanied by the sound of chewing.

Song Yingbai was so nervous that he didn't dare to breathe, so he winked at Xie Zhongyu.

As soon as Xie Zhongyu lowered his head, he slipped out of the screen with his waist down, and in a blink of an eye, he came back with a bulging bag, presumably he took advantage of the unpreparedness of the food-eating ghosts to trap Caifeng's soul back.

All that's left is to hope that Guicha will have a good appetite, and after eating until dawn, he will find that he has lost Caifeng's soul.

As time passed, the ghost messenger kept eating, and Song Yingbai squatted until his legs became numb.

At this moment, Li Zhen winked at him, looked at her shoulder, the meaning was obvious, let him lean on.

Song Yingbai shook his head and refused without thinking. A big man leaned on another man's shoulder?Hmm... the picture is so beautiful.

"Meow——" Suddenly, there was a clear meow of a cat, which was more terrifying than a ghost meow in the dark night.

Song Yingbai gritted his teeth in despair and clenched his fists, damn cat!

Sure enough, the sound of eating suddenly stopped, and then there was the sound of panicked footsteps in the house. It should be that the ghost messenger realized that Cai Feng was gone, and looked around anxiously.

Suddenly, there was a bang, like the sound of heavy forks on the ground, and then the wind blew up on the ground, all the doors and windows opened with a clatter, and the window lattices and door panels rattled.

I don't know if it's the wind or the ghost's shout, it's like a whistle, the pitch is extremely low, but it can directly penetrate into the eardrum of a person.

Xie Zhongyu couldn't stand it any longer and covered his ears with his hands.

Song Yingbai also hurriedly blocked his ears, but the voice still came into his head, he wished he could grow a few more hands and clasp them all over his ears.

At this time, he suddenly felt another layer of warmth around his hands. It turned out that Li Zhen's hands were wrapped around his hands, helping him cover his ears.

Although Li Zhen also felt uncomfortable, he could hold on anyway.

But at this time, another frightening thing happened. Li Zhen saw that Song Yingbai's body was becoming double. It was not a problem with his eyes, but Song Yingbai's soul was leaving his body.

Xie Zhongyu also found out, and he didn't care about protecting his eardrums, so he put two fingers together to draw a rune on the center of Song Yingbai's eyebrows.

The separation of the soul was temporarily stopped.

Before everyone breathed a sigh of relief, the whistle-like roar rang out again. This time even Xie Zhongyu couldn't stand it anymore, seeing his soul drifting out like smoke.

Needless to say, it was ghosts who were searching for souls.Since Caifeng can't come out, he will call out all the nearby souls.

And the bag containing Caifeng's soul was also emitting white smoke, Xie Zhongyu knew that it was actually not white smoke, but three souls and seven souls.

Xie Zhongyu knew that he couldn't hold on anymore, if the disturbance continued, even their souls would be locked up, so he loosened the mouth of the bag and let Caifeng's soul go out.

The roar of the whistle stopped for a while, and Song Yingbai found that his soul had come back again, both the despair of losing Caifeng and the joy of being reborn from the Jedi.

Just when everyone thought Guichasuo returned Caifeng's soul and was about to leave, they found that the short shadow suddenly swelled several times and made a terrifying sound of grinding teeth.

It seems that Guicha doesn't intend to stop there, but wants to find out the guy who stole Feng's soul and set up a trap for him.

Song Yingbai winked at Li Zhen and Xie Zhongyu, and stretched out three fingers, pointing at the ceiling, window and door respectively, which meant that everyone escaped in three ways.

Xie Zhongyu shook his head, made a gesture of decapitation, and ran separately, only to let the ghosts break down one by one, and they were sure to die.

At this time, the sound of teeth grinding was getting closer and closer, and they probably also found that they were hiding in this corner.

At this time, Xie Zhongyu stepped forward, "I admit that it was wrong to plot against you, but you have not lost anything now, let's forget about it. After all, Caifeng doesn't deserve to die."

A voice suddenly appeared in Song Yingbai's mind, "He didn't deserve to die, so he will have a good pregnancy in his next life, but you guys dare to snatch my soul from me, you must not let it go lightly!"

Li Zhen stood up and said, "It's not a loss for you this trip. You have eaten all the good food and wine, and keep the benefits silently. Why don't you hurry up and leave. Can you see who are the tablets on the table?"

I didn't find any tablets on the table just now, so there are indeed three tablets, and they were opened one by one.

They are the tablets of the local city god, black and white impermanence, and King Yama.

"This table of wine and food was originally not dedicated to you, but to your superiors. It is very inappropriate for you to eat it now." Li Zhen said loudly: "We have a Taoist priest here, be careful when he writes prayers." Give Chenghuang or other officials of the underworld to sue you!"

Song Yingbai can't wait to give a thumbs up, high, it's really high, you can come up with the trick of letting the ghost servants passively embezzle "high-ranking officials to worship".

"These three tablets are placed on the table. The food and drinks are clearly not for you, but for them. You obviously don't pay attention to the people on the tablets." Li Zhen said coldly.

You can put yourself in the situation and think about it, if it is stated that it is an offering to the emperor, but it is eaten by a passing small official, what will happen to the small official.

Song Yingbai saw the puffed up ghost through the screen, and it gradually shrunk until it was almost the same as when he first entered the door.

Li Zhen continued: "If you're willing to let it go, we won't chase after you. Just pretend that what happened tonight never happened. If you keep pestering us, we will stay with you to the end."

I saw two shadows, one long and one short, slowly disappearing from the door until they were gone.

Song Yingbai poked his head out from behind the screen, let out a long breath, and wiped the sweat from his brow at the same time, "It seems that when a person dies, he really can't be resurrected."

Xie Zhongyu was not convinced, "It's all the cat's fault, otherwise it would have been a problem."

"What's the matter? You can't stand it even for a quarter of an hour when the ghost messenger is angry." Li Zhen said to Song Yingbai: "Don't listen to his ideas in the future. He was able to lose his own body before. It is too unreliable to take you into danger today."

Song Yingbai had to admit that he agreed with Xie Zhongyu's method because he had selfish intentions to revive Caifeng, and Xie Zhongyu could not be blamed.

However, it is true that Li Zhen is more reliable. Without him today, I really don't know how it would end.

"I owe you another favor." Song Yingbai said with a wry smile, "I don't know when I can pay it off."

Li Zhen smiled, "What are good friends doing so clearly?"

Speaking of raising his eyebrows, he glanced at Xie Zhongyu proudly from the corner of his eye.
