After Marrying the Lord of the Underworld

It was too late and then too soon, Lu Yingjiu stretched out his hand suddenly, and went straight to the face of the person in the mirror!

In this short half a second, he had summoned God. If this hit hit him, the ghost would be dizzy even if his head was not broken.

However, the other hand was one step ahead of him.

Jing Xian returned to his side at some point, and stretched out his hand casually, but brought out the sound of breaking the wind.

"boom!"

The mirror was pierced by him, and the fragments flew up, each piece filled with faint green fire.

Lu Yingjiu hurriedly stopped him: "Don't kill him!"

late.

That ghost's head was crushed by Jing Xian.

The blood mist flew around, covering the wall of the mirror world scarlet, but it couldn't fly out of the broken mirror.Jing Xian withdrew his hand, it was still clean, as if nothing had happened.

The house returned to silence.

Lu Yingjiu supported his forehead and said, "It would be fine if I didn't kill it, there is obviously another space behind this mirror."

Jing Xian was not very happy: "I kept it, it didn't die completely. Originally it dared to imitate you, but also deliberately separated us, it's not enough to die a thousand times."

"..." Lu Yingjiu smiled, "Forget it, let's go buy another mirror and keep it there, maybe we can do it again."

In the middle of the night, I don't know where to buy a fitting mirror of the same size.

Jingxian sent out the little ghosts, and soon, they brought a mirror from nowhere.

About the same size and just the right height.

Lu Yingjiu put it back, pointed it at the bed, and lay back down again: "Jing Xian, you should restrain yourself this time."

Jing Xian reluctantly agreed.

The bed was crowded, and Lu Yingjiu continued to fall asleep in his arms.

"Tick tock..."

"Tick tock..."

Sure enough, not long after, Lu Yingjiu woke up again.

This time Jing Xian did not disappear, he was still lying beside him, narrowing his deep black eyes, looking at the mirror directly in front of him.

It was a European-style round mirror, facing the bed, reflecting the two of them.

As before, there is no reflection of the green flame in the eyes of the person in the mirror.

Lu Yingjiu got out of bed, walked over barefoot and looked at the person in the mirror.

They are still smiling.

Smiling and smiling, his expression froze——

Jing Xian stood behind Lu Yingjiu with a vicious expression on his face, and smiled grimly.

Man in the Mirror:? !

The two of them turned around and wanted to run, but Lu Yingjiu stretched out his hand suddenly.The back of the hand was wrapped with fine talisman paper, and when it sank into the mirror, it seemed to be lightly dipped into the water.The mirror was still intact, and he had already grabbed the two ghosts by their collars.

The man in the mirror: "@!!hsdf*&!#!"

Lu Yingjiu couldn't understand the chattering bunch, and probably understood that they were expressing fear.He pulled it lightly, and two ghosts came out of the mirror.

Once they leave the mirror, they can no longer imitate others, and they become two imps in a blink of an eye.

The little ghost was about as tall as a thirteen or fourteen-year-old child, with one eye, ghost horns, and a pale face.There are peace talismans hanging around their necks, and they are actually wearing the costumes of ghost exorcists in ancient times. Various runes are drawn on the wide robes, and two black and one white, one male and one female, are painted on the back. Listen carefully.

They hid in the corner tremblingly, trying to run into the mirror.

Lu Yingjiu threw out the talisman paper and landed on the mirror, no matter how the two little ghosts touched the mirror, they couldn't go back.

Kid: "oe%i! @@*seg!"

Lu Yingjiu frowned slightly: "What are you talking about?" He looked at Jing Xian, "Translate?"

Jing Xian said, "They speak a dialect, and I can't understand it either."

Lu Yingjiu:?

Lu Yingjiu: "There are dialects for nonsense?"

"Of course." Jing Xian said, "Most of the priests and I speak the official language, but each species of ghosts can speak some dialects." He looked at the little ghost, "But I can find A ghost who understands."

He snapped his fingers, and an unknown ghost appeared on the ground.Jing Xian told it a few words, and it nodded repeatedly.

But half a minute passed, and the ghost came back with a... black cat.

The black cat has scarlet eyes and three tails.

Kid: "shgl!?nn? *owe"

The black cat opened its mouth and said, "It's asking, what are you doing here? Are you bad people? They don't want to hurt people, they just want to drive you away."

It's kind of weird for a ghost to ask "Are you a bad guy?"

After all, ghosts generally don't care about the so-called good or bad, and have no moral standards.

only……

Judging by their costumes, they should have dealt with ghost exorcists all year round, so it's not surprising that they would ask this question.

Lu Yingjiu said truthfully, "We're here to find Zhang Shuwan."

The kid muttered for a while.

The black cat translated: "We don't know the Zhang Shuwan you mentioned, so hurry up, this is someone else's house."

That sounds like a lie.

Lu Yingjiu pointed to their clothes: "These are the clothes of exorcists. Except for the Zhang family, no one will be painting on them."

After hearing this, the little ghost shook his head again and again, just as he was about to continue denying it, his eyes suddenly fell on Jing Xian.

They are very sensitive to danger, flinched a little, and their voices were a little lower.

Lu Yingjiu showed them a few talisman papers, and said, "I'm also an exorcist, and I used to stay in the Qingdeng Society for a while. If it wasn't absolutely necessary, we wouldn't barge in."

The little ghost took his talisman paper and looked at it murmuringly, wanting to confirm its authenticity.

Jing Xian was already impatient, and said coldly, "If we really had ulterior motives, you would have died long ago."

The two little devils shuddered.

One of the little devils in white swallowed his saliva, summoned up his courage and said, "We, we don't want to treat you as bad people, just..."

Another person in black clothes answered, "How can any decent person hug each other on someone else's bed!"

"That's right, that's right. They were hung up with their arms around the waist and one leg. We came out for two seconds, and we saw your evil deeds clearly."

"It's too bad, it's so perverted to secretly fall in love on Master Zhang's bed..."

Lu Yingjiu: "..."

Lu Yingjiu: "Do you think I want to sleep in someone else's bed?!"

"There's no need to talk about it." Jing Xian grinned, "It's over after a beating."

The two little ghosts shrank their heads and screamed.

The black cat translated in a timely manner: "They are scolding you for being a gangster, treating dogs and men, and saying that they are not afraid of life and death, and can be generous in righteousness."

Lu Yingjiu's eyebrows twitched: "What is this all about?"

Mao Tuanzi echoed at his feet: "Aoooooooooo!"

Unexpectedly, when it barked like this, the cursing of the two brats stopped instead.

They all looked at Mao Tuanzi in unison, sizing up its ghost horns, its silver-gray eyes, and its chubby body.

The little ghost in white: "Is this, is this Taotie?"

"Absolutely!" The kid in black nodded, "Look at its short legs, it's the same as Master Zhang said!"

Mao Tuanzi: "..."

It exploded with anger, like an exploding dandelion.

"Taotie, you can also say," the little ghost in white raised his head, looked at Lu Yingjiu carefully, and asked cautiously, "Is your surname Lu?"

Lu Yingjiu raised her eyebrows in surprise: "Yes. Do you know me?"

Now the kid's face changed.

The little ghost in black replied: "We don't know you, but Mrs. Zhang knows you. She has been waiting for you and said that you will definitely come here one day."

"How disrespectful just now, how disrespectful." Said the little ghost in white, holding the blue lantern and bowed deeply, "We didn't expect it to be you. Please come with me, Mr. Zhang has been waiting for a long time."

Lu Yingjiu and Jingxian looked at each other.

This "Master Zhang" most likely refers to Zhang Shuwan.

The kid said, Zhang Shuwan has been waiting for him for a long time...

Could it be that, as a member of the aristocratic family, Zhang Shuwan, like everyone else, has been secretly monitoring Lu Yingjiu?What day are you waiting for to return him to Heaven?

Things get confusing.

It seems that we can only go with them once.

Lu Yingjiu said, "Lead the way."

The kid responded and said, "We're going to go into the mirror."

After speaking, they raised the lanterns in their hands and stood side by side in front of the mirror just now.The blue lights of the two lanterns shone and fell into the mirror, illuminating the faces of each of them.

A few seconds later, the mirror surface fluctuated like water ripples.

"Come with us." The kid said, taking the lead, his body seemed to melt into the mirror.

Jing Xian took Lu Yingjiu's hand and walked ahead as usual.

The two walked past the mirror.

In the mirror is still Zhang Shuwan's bedroom, but it's completely upside down.The blue lantern in the little ghost's hand shone brightly, it was several times brighter.

The little ghost in white said: "Stay in the light of the lantern as much as possible, otherwise you may be rejected by the world in the mirror. At that time, you have to walk again."

Lu Ying responded with a drink, followed them to the living room, and opened the door to the corridor.

The corridor was empty, and it was still upside down.The elevator buttons are dark, and the only way to go down is through the long stairs.Finally reached the first floor, pushed open the door——

The outside is no longer a community.

There was only darkness, a thick darkness.

The world in the mirror can't see your fingers, and the world is like a dyeing vat.Only where the two blue lanterns shine, can you see the ground under your feet.

"Come with us, please—" said the kid in black.

Lu Yingjiu was led by Jing Xian and looked around.The few of them walked forward, and the lights flickered, illuminating some phantoms that flew by.I can't see what those are, like birds, like dead souls, with a cold wind blowing, making the blue lanterns sway left and right.

The surrounding area is not flat.

The light occasionally illuminates the white walls, the black cornices and a vermilion door.

Everything is an ancient building. From this point of view, they really seem to have returned to a thousand years ago and turned into members of the Qingdeng Pavilion, wearing black clothes and walking in the long night with lanterns.Slaying demons and demons, regardless of fame, only willing to use his own strength in exchange for Liming.

The little ghost in white said: "The world in this mirror was originally the place where Diting lived. These mirrors are called 'green mirrors', which are treasures specially made for it after the Zhang family made a contract with Diting. Diting shuttles in the mirror, listening It has been hundreds of thousands of years to explore everything and perceive people's hearts."

Lu Yingjiu had heard of this rumor.

It's just that he never came to the mirror in person.

He asked: "During this time, Zhang Shuwan has been staying in the mirror?"

"Yes." The little ghost nodded, "Master Zhang has been here. But we haven't gone to find her so quickly."

The two imps whistled sharply.

The phantom surged even more violently, making the clothes rattle.The lantern shook violently, and in the wind, their shadows fell on the ground in disarray.

In the distance, the door opened.

A vermilion door with peeling paint was opened silently, and there was still darkness behind the door.The little ghosts led the way, leading the way to welcome wine and leisure, and stepped into the gate.

"Whoa-"

The cyan flame surged violently, and then went out suddenly.

There was darkness all around, and then came... the voice of a child?

"Grandma!" the child cried, "I learned an English song at school today!"

"Oh, good—" an old voice replied, "Sing it for grandma."

The cheerful prelude of music sounded.

In the darkness, Jing Xian still held Lu Yingjiu's hand and asked, "What song is this?"

"A well-known old English song called LemonTree." Lu Yingjiu narrowed her eyes slightly.

He was a little puzzled, not knowing which play this was about.

The immature child's voice began to sing with a non-standard English pronunciation:

"I'm sitting here in a boring room

I'm sitting in this lifeless room

It's just another rainy Sunday afternoon

Another rainy Sunday afternoon

......"

Lu Yingjiu said in a low voice: "He is singing with a microphone, this should be a karaoke or something."

Jing Xian hummed.

"You sing really well!" The old voice appeared again, "Come on, let grandma kiss you."

At this moment, the bright light pierced people's eyes.

Lu Yingjiu's eyes were bright, he squinted his eyes, and it took several seconds to see the surrounding environment clearly: at some point, they were already in a KTV private room, with melon seed drinks on the table, and balloons hanging on the wall, spelling out the words: [Happy birthday to Little Ark! 】

ark.

The name sounds a little familiar.Lu Yingjiu's gaze shifted, looking at the family on the sofa, and then paused.

The gray-haired Chen Minlan squinted her eyes with a smile, while her son, daughter-in-law, granddaughter Chen Yanyan, and grandson Chen Fangzhou all surrounded the table with smiling faces.

This……

This turned out to be the day when the Chen family killed their family!

Holding the microphone in one hand, Chen Fangzhou held Chen Minlan in the other, and said seriously: "Grandma, this song tells the story of a man who separated from his beloved and waited under the lemon tree every day. You are all my beloved." Everyone should be healthy and healthy, and never be separated."

"Oh!" Chen Minlan smiled brighter, and stroked Chen Fangzhou's hair, "Sun and grandson are so good! Grandma also wishes you to be healthy and happy."

In the peaceful atmosphere, no one noticed that Chen Yanyan had a strange look on his face.

And Lu Yingjiu knew everything.

At this time, Chen Yanyan was Fan Xin wearing a human skin mask, and the ghost's obsession was in his schoolbag. In a few minutes, the ghost would rush out and tear up this beauty.

"Hey, you..."

Knowing that it was the past, Lu Yingjiu subconsciously wanted to speak, but found that her voice was as thin as a mosquito's foot.

Jing Xian shook his head lightly, and said, "They can't hear it. Our perspective is weird, and we are in a mirror world. I guess, we are now in a mirror on the wall."

Lu Yingjiu was stunned for a few seconds.

In other words, they are seeing the past scenes from the mirror.

The family sang happily, but Chen Minlan was not good at singing, so she clapped her hands with a smile on her side.

A few minutes later, her cell phone rang.

She looked down, the smile on her face disappeared immediately, she got up and walked out of the private room quickly.

As soon as the screen turned, Lu Yingjiu's perspective also shifted to the mirror in the corridor.

Chen Minlan stood alone at the end of the corridor.

The thin clothes were blown up by the wind.

The kind and gentle temperament disappeared without a trace, and was replaced by seriousness...even majesty.She has been the Patriarch of the Chen family for many years, even though her hair is gray and her back is bent, her aura has not changed.

The caller's name is: [Chen Zheng]

Lu Yingjiu knew that Chen Zheng had been studying with Chen Minlan since he was a child and regarded her as his teacher.

"Hi," Chen Minlan answered the phone, "I'm celebrating Fang Zhou's birthday."

"...you continue to follow up," she lowered her voice a little, "last time we destroyed a large amount of goods in the warehouse at the dock, the other party couldn't hold back anymore, and once impatient, there will be more openings. Your name is Rong Rong With Xiaofeng and those who brought his nieces, focus on investigating the slaughterhouse and port."

She gave a few more instructions and said, "We must find out this underground industrial chain, not only for the Chen family, but also for the safety of everyone. Things like human skin masks should have disappeared long ago."

Sure enough, Lu Yingjiu thought, Chen Minlan and Chen Zheng have been investigating the mask.

Chen Zheng seemed to have said something.

Chen Minlan laughed: "As long as I'm still alive, the human skin mask will never see the light. It's best if this kind of thing is lost, the Chen family doesn't rely on this kind of thing to gain a foothold."

However, before hanging up the phone, a certain hesitant look appeared on her face.

She said slowly: "Chen Zheng, you still have to pay attention to one thing: you can keep an eye on Chen Qi more, he has suspicions."

"I know he is your brother. From my standpoint, I hope that you will be brothers and sisters, support each other and take care of each other. But even brothers will not fully understand each other. When it is time to doubt, I hope you can Strengthen your resolve."

"Chen Zheng, you have to be a brave and kind person."

Chen Zheng responded in a low voice.

Chen Minlan hung up the phone.

The evening wind outside the window blew her pale hair and blew across her wrinkled face.She didn't know what she was thinking, and after a long time, she turned and went back to the private room.

——At this time, no one knew, Chen Qi had long been aware of this suspicion.

Fan Xin is the time bomb he arranged and is about to detonate.

Chen Minlan, who returned to the private room, cleared up all her emotions.

She was that kind, harmless old grandma again, squinting her eyes with joy and shaking her silver hair with laughter when her grandson sang.

Everyone relaxed their vigilance.

A rich shadow swam out of the girl's schoolbag and entangled under the sofa.

After that, everything Lu Yingjiu knew.

The fierce ghost appeared, and blood flew across the wall, splashing across the entire wall.

A light melody song is playing on the jukebox.

"I'm stepping around in the desert of joy

I walk on the happy sandbar

Baby any how I'll get another toy

Baby I might find another love anyway

And everything will happen and you'll wonder

At that time, everything I expect will happen, and you may be the one who is depressed."

Chen Minlan reached out to protect Chen Fangzhou in her arms.In the past, she was a brave warrior, able to defeat all ghosts, but this skill has aged with the years, and the only thing she can do is to resist with flesh and blood.

"Pfft-"

Li Gui's sharp claws slashed across her back, exposing the bones, a mixture of scarlet and forest white.

"Yesterday you out old me about the blue blue sky

You were talking to me about the beautiful weather yesterday

Andall that I can see

but now i can see

Andall that I can see

but now i can see

Isjustayellowlemontree

Only one golden lemon tree"

The private room fell silent.

The only survivor is Fan Xin, the culprit.

She nestled in the corner and shivered, watching Li Gui licked her sharp claws contentedly, smiled mockingly at her, and disappeared into a shadow.

What awaited Fan Xin was a life of more than ten years of pain, struggle, and guilt.

In the pool of blood, Chen Minlan's hand moved slightly.

Very slowly, she touched the flip phone not far away.

Lu Yingjiu knew what Chen Minlan was going to do.

The old man turned on the phone with his hands wet, trembling, but he did not call the police.

Blood stained the screen.

She clicked out a series of numbers and entered the text with difficulty: [Lu Yingjiu, your time has come]

After pressing the send button, Chen Minlan's hand hangs down feebly.

Her chest rose and fell slightly, and she let out a long, viscous breath, as if she had finally finished something on her mind.

——She didn't know that Lu Yingjiu no longer used this phone number.

It wasn't until he pursued the case more than ten years later that this text message was like a sudden reef, reappearing in the tide called time.

At this moment, she slowly closed her eyes.

Lu Yingjiu's breathing couldn't help but stagnate.

Even if the aristocratic family has been monitoring him and trying to take his life away, it is still embarrassing to see the tragedy of a whole family.

Chen Minlan was about to die.

The blood loss brought a clammy feeling, and the vitality was quickly stripped from this old body.The rise and fall of the chest slowed down, and she slowly exhaled the last breath——

Suddenly she opened her eyes again!

The out-of-focus eyes turned out to be fixedly looking in the direction of Lu Yingjiu.Through the mirror, after more than ten years, they looked at each other!

Chen Minlan said hoarsely, "... Lu Yingjiu, Lu Yingjiu, you were there, right?"

Lu Yingjiu was terrified.

She said: "I know you are there, go to the Zhang family, no matter what you have to..."

The sound stopped abruptly and she died.
