After joining Hades

When Wen Bai received another call from the Zhong family, it was already three days later.

It's just that the one who called him this time was not Zhong Yun, nor the old Chairman Zhong, but Zhong Hao.

After being imprisoned by his father and grandfather for two days, Zhong Hao basically never called Wen Bai, so when he received his call, he was a little surprised.

As soon as the answer button is pressed, a loud voice is heard: "Brother!"

Wen Bai took the phone a little further away: "What's wrong?"

"Brother, where did you find those stones you gave to my dad on the school day? Are you sure it's Xiangshan?"

"Stone?" Wen Bai paused, then remembered what Zhong Hao said, "Well, I got it from Xiangshan, what's wrong?"

"So brother, did you expect it in advance? You still watch this? This is too amazing, can you teach me?"

The more Zhong Hao talked, the more excited he became, and the more Wen Bai listened, the more confused he became, and he quickly stopped: "What did you expect? What are you looking at?"

Zhong Hao: "Original stone! Brother, emeralds have grown out of this stone!"

Wen Bai: "..."

what?

Emerald, emerald?

"Although it's not considered king green, the color is quite good and there are no impurities."

"The key is the big head, the whole one!"

Wen Bai: "..."

It took Wen Bai a long time to find his voice: "Did you open the stone?"

Last time at school, he watched Zhong Yun carry this pile of stones into the car himself, not to mention handing it over to the assistant beside him, even if he handed it over to Zhong Hao, he didn't feel at ease, for fear that he would touch it with his hands and feet.

Seeing the cautious appearance, Wen Bai felt that even if they knew that it was emerald, there was a high probability that they would not touch Zhong Shining's things.

After all, a piece of jadeite is really not eye-catching enough for the Zhong family.

Not to mention things like rough stones, even decades-old experts are prone to overturning, which is something ordinary people can understand.

So how did the rock get there?

"I, I... I was not careful." Zhong Hao faltered and said this, and then laughed dryly.

"It's like this, brother, after you gave the stone to my dad, my dad took it home. The first thing he did when he brought it home was to put it on the altar, burn incense on it, and take a bath. .”

Wen Bai didn't understand for a while: "Who burn incense and bathe? How many stones?"

Zhong Hao: "Yes."

Wen Bai: "..."

"and then."

"After all, it is what the young master wants, and it is placed on the memorial tablet of the old house. Grandpa is afraid that the young master will miss it, so he wants to take it to the tomb of the young master. Where would it be better to put it?"

The Zhong family didn't dare to slack off about Zhong Shining's affairs, especially in Feng Shui, Wen Bai had a deep understanding.

Before the location of burning incense, you have to ask the supervisor first. Putting a few stones is already considered a big deal, so it is natural to make a divination. Wen Bai didn't say much, and responded, motioning him to continue.

"The old temple master pointed to a direction, and after instructing some taboos, he said that the young master was young when he left, and it would be more appropriate for the juniors to do this kind of thing."

Speaking of this, Wen Bai has roughly guessed it.

The junior of the Zhong family, the most suitable, and the only suitable, is Zhong Hao.

After contacting the inexplicably opened stone, Wen Bai said slowly: "Did you drop the stone?"

Zhong Hao's silence gave Wen Bai an answer.

"The position pointed by the hanger is too high and narrow, I, I accidentally lost it."

Zhong Hao doesn't dare to think about the scene at that time anymore.

The loud sound of the stone falling to the ground, the exclamation of parents, and the crutches of grandpa flying towards him.

Zhong Hao has always felt that his life is going smoothly, but only for those ten minutes, he has the heart to die.

Even though Wen Bai had already guessed a thing or two, but hearing Zhong Hao's confession, he was still a little speechless.

Ignoring the matter of jade or not, Wen Bai hurriedly said, "Where's Shi Ning's tomb?"

Didn't hit it?

Zhong Hao reacted for a while before he equated "Shi Ning" with "Little Master".

"Fortunately, I reacted fairly quickly. The stone was thrown out by me, and it didn't hit the little grandpa's tomb." At that time, he almost mobilized his whole body's reaction mechanism, and just before the stone was released from his hand, he pushed hard, and put The stone that was supposed to hit the tombstone turned away, avoided the tombstone, and hit the stone steps beside it.

Wen Bai breathed a sigh of relief.

Not only for Zhong Shiningsong, but also for Zhong Haosong.

If it really hit Zhong Shining's tomb, Zhong Hao would probably have to be beaten up.

Zhong Hao continued to say: "The stone was hit on the stone steps beside it, it was hit hard at that time, and then rolled all the way along the stone steps, when I went to pick it up again, the stone was gone. One piece is missing, see green."

At that time, Zhong Hao's heart was full of stones being cracked, a piece was missing, broken, and he didn't know what it meant to see green inside.

Originally, I wanted to cover the missing corner to avoid everyone's sight, and put it on the tombstone of the little grandfather without anyone noticing, but after thinking about it, I felt that people can be deceived, but ghosts can't be deceived, let alone that this ghost is his little man. Grandpa, no matter what, he couldn't do such a thing to deceive his ancestors, so he had no choice but to surrender himself with the stone in his arms.

Then, a collateral uncle in the family who was in the jade business discovered the jade inside the cortex.

The matter became so dramatic that Wen Bai didn't know what to say, and then when Zhong Hao heard that Zhong Shining had entrusted Chairman Zhong with a dream last night, he decided to go to Yangcheng.

Zhong Hao immediately told his family members that Wen Bai was coming. Chairman Zhong wanted to invite Wen Bai because of the stone. When he saw someone coming, he waited in the old house early in the morning. .

After Wen Bai said hello briefly, he walked to the cemetery with Zhou Wei - yesterday Zhou Wei happened to have something to visit the Yin Division, and after knowing that the stone had unearthed emeralds, he had to follow him to see what he said.

When Zhong Shining saw Wen Bai and Zhou Wei, he immediately floated over.

Zhou Wei stared straight at the green stone that had been cut in half, and stared at it for a full minute before uttering, "Damn!"

It is really a whole piece of emerald.

Such a precious thing, the Zhong family dared to put it on the tomb in such a big way, wouldn't they be afraid that someone would take it?

Zhou Wei paused for a moment, then remembered that this is the Zhong Family Cemetery, and there are still people guarding it, so there is nothing to be afraid of.

However, Wen Bai put his mind on dreaming: "Shi Ning, I heard from Zhong Hao that you gave Chairman Zhong a dream last night?"

Zhong Shining nodded his head twice, still a little confused.

But this confusion is not for Wen Bai, but for himself.

He knew why Wen Bai asked that, because he borrowed a talisman last time he had a dream.

But when he had a dream last night, he didn't have anything in his hand.

"Can you still remember what you did before you had a dream last night?" Wen Bai asked.

Zhong Shining thought about it carefully: "I didn't do anything, just wandered around the old house as usual."

Before coming, Wen Bai heard from Mr. Zhong, the old chairman, that when his little uncle fell asleep last night, he seemed to be in a fog, as if he didn't expect the two to "meet".

Both were startled.

Zhong Shining didn't know why he had dreamed about it, and the old chairman Zhong thought that Zhong Hao fell into the stone in the morning, which made Zhong Shining angry, but Zhong Shining turned around to comfort him and told him not to give birth to the clock. Hao's anger.

When Chairman Zhong said this, Zhong Hao was on the sidelines.

At first, he thought that his grandfather didn't punish him because the stone produced emeralds. In the end, it turned out that the young grandfather begged for him, and he almost smashed the tombstone of the young grandfather. The grandfather offered three sticks of incense.

Before coming here, Wen Bai thought that Zhong Shining could hold the dream, and it was Zhengtian Guan who pulled the strings in it, but it turned out that there was nothing, which was a bit strange.

But seeing Zhong Shining's appearance, Wen Bai didn't want him to worry, and planned to go back and ask Lu Zheng later.

"Is this jadeite going to be put here?" Wen Bai changed the subject.

"When I had a dream last night, I forgot to tell him. They didn't dare to move, so they put it here first." Zhong Shining said.

Zhou Wei turned his head and looked deeply at Zhong Shining: "Shi Ning, I want to learn this too!"

"I, I really didn't know it was emerald!" He asked the Zhong family to bring it to him, because these few stones were the most beautiful stones he found in Xiangshan, and the Zhong family cemetery contained everything. , but after all, he was a little uncomfortable with it, so he mentioned it when he dreamed.

Who knew that an emerald would come out as soon as it opened.

When they said they saw Lu, Zhong Shining was very confused.

Although Chairman Zhong could roughly guess what was inside, he didn't dare to open it without Zhong Shining's intention, so at the suggestion of Zhengtianguan, he lit a stick of incense and put it on Zhong Shining's grave. If it moves, it proves that Zhong Shining agreed, so let's open it. If the smoke doesn't move, it means that he doesn't agree. How did it come and how did you put it back.

As soon as the cigarette was lit, Zhong Shining sat cross-legged beside the incense, puffing out his face.

As soon as the smoke moved, Chairman Zhong ordered someone to open the stone.

Then I saw a large piece of emerald.

They were not surprised by the emerald, but they were happy all day because the jade was left by Zhong Shining, but the opened rough stone was left untouched, and it was placed on Zhong Shining's grave .

"What about these pieces? Is that right?" Zhou Wei pointed to the three stones next to him.

Zhong Shining held his chin: "I don't know either."

"I feel guilty when I think of sitting such a large piece of jade under my buttocks before." Zhou Wei said.

"No, no," Zhong Shining stretched out his fingers, "Ah Wei, that's the one you're sitting on, and this one is Xiaobai's."

"Do you want to see your piece? If you want to see it, we will open one on the spot!"

Zhou Wei: "...to Yankee..."

"Don't talk about opening the original stone like opening a watermelon." Zhou Wei didn't quite understand the fun of these rich kids.

However, Wen Bai smiled. For Zhong Shining, these jadeites may not be as practical as stones: "Just open one, and next time we come again, there won't be no place to sit."

Zhong Shining was very happy when he heard Wen Bai say "Come again next time", and quickly put away the small stool.

Wen Bai and Zhou Wei chatted with Zhong Shining for a while, and returned to Nancheng after nightfall.

The next day, Wen Bai went to Yin Division, and mentioned Zhong Shining's entrusted dream.

"I was going to tell you about this." Lu Zheng said.

Wen Bai: "What about Shi Ning?"

"Ah."

"Is there something about Di Ting?" In the past month, Xie Jiuzhang has also been investigating Zhong Shining's affairs.

"Ah."

"Zhong Shining has been attached to the locust tree all year round, and the yin and earth qi are mixed together. The Zhong family has made many good fortunes for him, so the spirit body will not disappear."

As for entrusting the dream, it was because during this period of time, the Zhong family had enshrined too many incense sticks, and when there was an excess of spiritual energy, the dreaming would follow Zhong Shining's own will.

It was almost the same as what they had guessed before.

It's just that Wen Bai doesn't know how long this spirit body will last.

The answer Lu Zheng gave was: "The shortest is a few decades, and the longest is hundreds of years."

Wen Bai: "Then do we have to maintain the state of the soul?"

Wen Bai frowned.

Although Lu Zheng did not impose restrictions on Zhong Shining, he could leave the cemetery, but there was no place Zhong Shining dared to go except the Zhong family mansion.

After all, it is still in the state of soul body. If it is caught by someone, it will be troublesome. Lu Zheng also specifically mentioned it before.

It's okay to ask for a dream, but it's okay to ask for it once in a while. If there are too many times, I'm afraid Chairman Zhong and the others will have to think more.

"Hundreds of years." Wen Bai lowered his eyes and said to himself.

How boring that must be.

They have been alone for so many years, and they still have to stay in another place, but still no one talks, and it is impossible for him and Zhou Wei to go to Zhong's house all the time.

Thinking about it this way, in fact, the cemetery is no different from Xiangshan.

For a moment, Wen Bai couldn't tell whether the "spiritual body disappearance" was a good thing or a bad thing. He thought that when the matter was found out, Zhong Shining could go to reincarnation.

Lu Zheng looked at Wen Bai, but didn't speak.

A week later, Wen Bai took the official letter signed by Lu Zheng, looked at the three words "Zhong Shining" on it, and blinked: "You want to call Shining to be an errand?"

Lu Zheng only responded indifferently: "Idle is idle."

"Why do you want to..." Wen Bai was stunned for a moment, then stopped talking for a moment, and his eyes flickered immediately.

Being a yin errand and having the Yinsi brand on his body means that Shi Ning doesn't have to be confined in the cemetery and can walk around at will.

There is no need to worry about Taoist warlocks who don't have eyes. The most important thing is that when the time limit is up, the choice of reincarnation or continuing to work is in his own hands, and he doesn't have to worry about the next life...

Looking at Wen Bai's brighter and brighter eyes, Lu Zheng smiled lightly.

"Is there a problem?" Lu Zheng pretended not to see, and continued to ask, "Or do you think Zhong Shining is unwilling?"

Wen Bai hid his smile and shook his head.

He was planning to take this thing to the newly promoted errand early, when Zhou Wei's voice was accompanied by a knock on the door, resounding outside.

"Boss Lu, Xiaobai, are you inside?"

Zhou Wei came to this office as a freshman for the first time, and acquainted with him for the second time. Now he knows very well that as long as he looks for Xiaobai, he can find Boss Lu's office.

And after seeing Lu Zheng's thoughts, Zhou Wei felt that Boss Lu was quite down-to-earth, so he was not as afraid as before.

Wen Bai opened the door for him.

"Xiaobai step aside, be careful." Zhou Wei was holding a big brocade box in his hand, and walked to the coffee table before putting it down.

While unpacking, he said to Wen Bai: "Isn't it fifteen today? Taoist Lin Qiu came to the temple to find my grandfather, and asked me to give this to you by the way."

"It was sent by the Zhong family."

As soon as Zhou Wei finished speaking, the box just opened.

Zhou Wei lifted the red cloth inside, and a small emerald lotus lantern appeared in front of his eyes.

With this familiar color and texture, one could tell at a glance that it was the jade that Zhong Shining had opened before.

"It's not Chairman Zhong's idea, it's Shi Ning's own idea. It's useless to keep the emerald, so I entrusted the chairman with a dream and carved something for you."

"Didn't he know that you have a small lotus lantern? He asked the chairman to carve a small lotus lantern. After a week of rushing, it happened to be given to...Xiao Bai, this paper fell on the floor, do you want it?"

Halfway through Zhou Wei's speech, he felt a piece of paper float down from Wen Bai's hand, and it just landed at his feet.

After hurriedly stuffing the small jadeite lotus lamp inside to ensure that it was not in danger of falling, Zhou Wei leaned over to pick up the paper.

After reading the text on the top, look at the date below.

He raised his head stiffly and looked at Boss Lu who was standing beside him leisurely.

Shengsheng swallowed his saliva.

Good, good guy.

Boss Lu just signed it today.

The imperial edict has not yet been sent out, but the gift from the newly promoted Xiaoyin has already been delivered.

Publicly and openly bribery.

Also caught on the spot.
