After Marrying the Lord of the Underworld

This mirror was originally made by the Zhang family specially for Di Ting.

Since drawing the formation inside, they arranged blind runes so that Heavenly Dao couldn't find it.

Zhang Shuwan showed them the rune.

Countless blue lamps were lit in the air, and countless mirrors were illuminated.

The mirrors are all suspended in the air, and the angles between them have been delicately designed to reflect the lights on each other, which looks quite spectacular at first glance.If you walk in, it's like entering a maze and seeing thousands of shadows of yourself.

"They can stop the prying eyes of heaven." Zhang Shuwan led them through the mirror, "There are countless formations in this space, covering each other, and the full protection of Di Ting can bury our core formation. at the bottom."

"It's a pity that this formation cannot hide people, otherwise you will be safe in the mirror."

Lu Yingjiu said, "I've already been to the ghost world."

"..." Zhang Shuwan widened his eyes in surprise, "You succeeded? Did you pass through the gate of the ghost world?"

"Yes, thanks to your father." Lu Yingjiu pointed at Jing Xian with a smile, "And him."

He briefly told Zhang Shuwan what happened on the Kangli Bridge.

He also said that he saw Zhang Haokong in the car, and he helped point the way.

Zhang Shuwan was stunned for a while after hearing this, and said: "He is still guarding there... But, seeing that you have left safely, he should be able to go where he should go with peace of mind. Great, their efforts have not paid off. In vain."

She smiled.

The three walked for a while, and she couldn't hold back her curiosity, and asked, "Then can I ask, what is the relationship between you two?"

Before Lu Yingjiu had time to speak, Jing Xian took him into his arms with a smile.

"Ah." Zhang Shuwan said, "Hey."

Lu Yingjiu:? ?

This "hey" is really a bit spiritual.

The world in the mirror is endless, if there is no blue light to guide the way, it will not be possible to go back soon.

They simply turned around and looked at the edge of the huge formation.Along the way, Lu Yingjiu took a notebook to write and draw, and recorded the details.

According to Zhang Shuwan, this formation is called "survey", and its function is to find the location of the way of heaven.

Walking past the bright and extinguished runes, Zhang Shuwan explained: "Although the way of heaven is invisible, there have always been comments in the family that question the way of heaven: that is, the way of heaven may be polluted by something, it may be cause and effect, it may be It's Yin Qi, anyway, there are different opinions... Otherwise, its behavior of asking for sacrifices is really unconvincing."

"The living sacrifice was almost 500 years ago." Lu Yingjiu said, "Could it have started since then?"

"I don't know." Zhang Shuwan shook his head, "My father and Mr. Chu You have been researching, but there is no result. If it is really polluted, then this formation can take you to the source of pollution."

She sighed softly: "The purpose of the family is not only to protect you, but also to purify the cruel heaven. Of course, these are all theoretical."

It took them quite a long time to walk through the formation bit by bit.

It's just that something went wrong when I went back.

The world in the mirror is so vast that Zhang Shuwan usually rides Diting back and forth.

But Truing is only willing to carry the contractor.

Jing Xian originally wanted to catch some ghosts and goblins, but Mao Tuanzi spun around at their feet, wagging his tail frantically.

It grew in size and quickly turned into a giant hairball two people tall.

——Probably what I want to express is to let them ride on it.

Zhang Shuwan was amazed.

She especially likes furry things. She stretched out her hand to hug the hairball, rubbed it hard a few times, and praised how elastic it felt.

Lu Yingjiu and Jingxian went up.

It had so much fur and so soft that the two of them almost sank into it.

For the next 10 minutes, Di Ting led the way, and Mao Tuanzi tried to keep up with his short legs, but he didn't fall behind.

Jing Xian proudly said: "It's not because I raised it well, look at how strong it is now."

Lu Yingjiu supported his forehead and said, "How many times have you used it as a kitchen waste bin, do you think I didn't see it?"

What Lu Yingjiu said was right.

For the next few days, he watched Jingxian use the hairballs as a trash can every day.

In order to maintain the formation, Zhang Shuwan would often stay in the mirror for a long time.

She couldn't move away, so the little ghost transformed by Di Ting cooked for her—in this space, there was not only a temporary house, but also a small kitchen.

Di Ting's cooking skills are actually pretty good.

It is said that it listened to other people's heart sounds and eavesdropped on many chefs' recipes.

Lu Yingjiu hated iron and steel, and poked hairy balls: "Other people's contract can buy vegetables and cook, why do you think about eating all day long? Just eat, don't be so happy as a trash can. "

Mao Tuan: "Aoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo"

Jing Xian cooks for himself and cooks for Lu Yingjiu who studies the formation.It is very convenient to throw all kinds of kitchen waste directly into Maotuanzi's mouth.

In the evening they spent the night in the hut.

It is still green tiles, red walls and black eaves.The interior is simple but very comfortable.

Jing Xian is still not satisfied.

The next day, Gui Lala Company came with a bunch of furniture and moved them one by one into the mirror.What kind of sandalwood tea table, what kind of luxury mattress, what kind of silk quilt, what kind of velvet pillow, all lined up for Lu Ying to choose from.

Zhang Shuwan seemed to have enjoyed Lu Yingjiu's favor, admiring the furniture of Yin and Yang, and took a bunch of them away.

Before leaving, she said to Lu Yingjiu, "Your boyfriend is really virtuous."

Lu Yingjiu thought to herself, that's right, otherwise how could she be Concubine Xian.

They stayed like this for two or three months in the mirror world.

Halfway through, Tiandao's attendants reappeared.

This round of wine reception kept his promise, and he didn't push away Jingxian and face it alone.

The two fought together and shed blood side by side.

Most of the time the servants were killed.

Occasionally, they also come in a steady stream, and Lu Yingjiu and Jingxian will go to the ghost world to avoid the limelight. After a few days, the attendants give up searching and come back.

Lu Yingjiu wrote one after another of his notebooks, which were densely piled up in the house, and he and Jing Xian rode a hair ball all day long, watching formations everywhere.Zhang Shuwan told him many details of the formation, but there were too many and complicated things, and she couldn't know and understand all of them.

Concubine Xian has always been in charge of three meals a day, giving full play to the teaching achievements of New Oriental teacher Gui, and various delicacies come in turn, such as Dongpo pork, lemon shrimp, stir-fried cabbage sum and boiled lamb chops...

After three months, Lu Yingjiu didn't get fat, Mao Tuanzi didn't get fat, and Jing Xian didn't get fat either.

Zhang Shuwan has gained weight.

Every day when she stood on the weighing scale, she would sigh deeply: "People are so angry, I obviously eat the least amount..."

In the third month, Lu Yingjiu's research hit a bottleneck.

There was one thing he couldn't figure out.

And Zhang Shuwan also became anxious.

She said: "Our time is probably running out. Judging from the fluctuation of yin qi and the results of my calculations, the Night Parade of Hundred Ghosts is coming soon."

"How much longer?" Lu Yingjiu asked.

Zhang Shuwan shook his head: "I can only guarantee that we will be safe within these two months—maybe it will come in two months, maybe it will take another year or two."

If it's really two months, that's not much time left.

Lu Yingjiu contacted other ghost exorcists to remind their families and the ghost exorcist guild to be prepared.There are many exorcists who can divination and speculate, and they are not unaware of this matter, and they are actively predicting a more accurate time.

Back in the mirror world, I drank cup after cup of coffee, and brewed pot after pot of strong tea.

He sat cross-legged at the table, twirling a pen, slightly frowning his pretty eyebrows.

"Let's rest for a while." Jing Xian told him, "Maybe you'll figure it out after a night of sleep."

"That's what you said last night." Lu Yingjiu continued to turn his pen, "It's useless at all."

Jing Xian leaned over to have a look.

He didn't know the ghost exorcist's talisman paper, but he still insisted on watching Lu Yingjiu write notes.

Exorcists are more or less skilled at painting.

Even though Lu Yingjiu was good at drawing, with a few simple strokes, he drew four images of ghosts and gods: Spirit Ape, Li Snake, Truth Ting and Peacock God.

Corresponding to the four great families.

Seeing Jing Xian came over to take a look, Lu Yingjiu glanced at him, pointed to the formation and explained: "The four corners here are drawn with talismans to invite gods, and these four ghosts and gods need to be present at the same time, but why... ...Why can't I understand the next part at all? It feels like something is missing..."

He thought for a long time.

Until late at night, when he was lying in Jing Xian's arms, he was still thinking about this matter in a daze.

Jing Xian laughed sullenly and said, "Why does it feel the same as before?"

"What is the same as before?"

"It's just that you're still thinking about something while you're sleeping." Jing Xian said, "When you were in the ghost world, didn't you have something you couldn't figure out?" He stroked Lu Yingjiu's hair, "Another formation."

Of course Lu Yingjiu remembered this.

At that time, he was still studying the formation method to go to the ghost world, and there was one thing he didn't figure out.

He wanted to continue his research, but ended up in the mirror world.

"En." Lu Yingjiu responded, "To be honest, these two places are quite similar..."

He paused.

Not only is it very similar.

Looking back on every detail now, it seems that there are inextricably linked!

A bold and crazy idea came to mind.

He sat up abruptly, grabbed the pen and paper by the bed and began to draw, and ordered: "Jingxian, help me get the two black books on the table."

Jing Xian did as he did, and after bringing the book, he hugged Lu Yingjiu from behind and concentrated on watching what he was doing.

Lu Yingjiu just nestled in his arms to write and draw. After an unknown amount of time, two pages of paper were torn off with a "crash".

On the paper, there are two formations.

One is "survey", and the other opens the gate of the ghost world.Originally, their lines were very complicated, but after being simplified by him, only a large frame remained.

He folded the two sheets of paper and held them up to the light.

The formations overlapped together under the light, entangled with each other, as if there was no law at all.

And Lu Yingjiu stared at them intently for a while, and said, "They are related."

Jing Xian listened silently.

Lu Yingjiu: "No wonder I can't understand it all the time. It turns out that what I see is not all formations at all." He pointed to the lines that merged together on the paper, "This is complete."

Perhaps out of caution, they put the last piece of unfinished rune in another formation like a graft.

"They may not have time to complete the formation, so they recorded the last part temporarily, or they may be waiting for me to complete the last step out of caution." Lu Yingjiu said, "They know that I will touch the gate of the ghost world Formation, as long as you make contact like this, you will be able to understand 'Kan'."

He stayed up all night to describe the newly assembled formation bit by bit.

Jing Xian accompanied him, slowly peeling apples beside him.

The apple peel hung down in a long string, and it just fell into the mouth of Mao Tuanzi. It babbled and ate it so contentedly.Jing Xian shaved while feeding Lu Yingjiu, and did not forget to sneak a few kisses.

A few days passed in the blink of an eye.

Early in the morning, Lu Yingjiu handed the completed formation to Zhang Shuwan's hand and said, "Can you complete this formation before the Hundred Ghosts' Night Parade begins?"

Zhang Shuwan glanced roughly, nodded and said: "Yes, Di Ting will help me."

She asked again, "Are you going out?"

"Yes." Lu Yingjiu said, "This formation still needs to summon four ghosts and gods, and they need to be summoned in different places."

The whole "kan" is based on monkeys, snakes, peacocks and truth listening.After all, they acquiesced that the person who activated this formation must be someone from the aristocratic family.

Zhang Shuwan said: "I can do it if you listen to the truth, but the other three..." She hesitated, "I don't know who to go to for the time being. I haven't contacted the family for a long time."

For a long time, she was guarding the formation alone.

Lu Yingjiu said: "I will find a way, don't worry." He said sincerely again, "Thank you."

He said to leave and leave.

In the afternoon, I took Jing Xian and Mao Tuanzi to go out to the mirror world.

Zhang Shuwan sent them out.

Before leaving, Lu Yingjiu suddenly said, "I have one last question to ask you."

"What?" Zhang Shuwan tilted his head.

Lu Yingjiu said: "According to what you said, in the early years, Tiandaoyuan was not that active, and didn't even notice my existence. It sent only a few attendants, and as long as they were near my residence, they were all dealt with secretly by the aristocratic family." gone."

Zhang Shuwan nodded: "Yes. After your ghost marriage, there will be fewer attendants."

"However," Lu Yingjiu said, "I have been plagued by bad luck since I was a child. I often couldn't sleep because of ghosts until dawn. Why didn't you solve those ghosts together?"

Those ghostly hands and those screams are vivid in my memory.

He remembered the eyes under the bed, the woman in white clothes standing on the roof, the whispers coming from the wall at night... It was these things that had troubled him for many, many years.

Hearing this, Zhang Shuwan showed a helpless smile.

She said: "It's not that we don't want to, but we can't. Your bad luck is the curse of heaven. Those ghosts are closer to your inner demons, so they are everywhere and inseparable."

The inner demon arises from the darkest part of the soul, and no one else can get rid of it except himself.

Doom catalyzes the process.

That's why he had such a lonely childhood.

Lu Yingjiu nodded: "I understand."

"There is still too little we can do." Zhang Shuwan still smiled helplessly, "It's the first time in everyone's life to play against the law of heaven. Aunt Zhang Nianyun often told me that it would be great if I could see you happy when you were young." gone."

Lu Yingjiu said, "It's fine."

He paused: "In the past, I cared very much and felt that fate was unfair, but now I am relieved. There are always regrets in life, and I don't have time to mourn them one by one. Besides..."

He took Jing Xian's hand, and said with a smile: "Besides, if it wasn't for this, I wouldn't have gotten into a ghost marriage. This guy will probably sleep for several years."

It's fine if he doesn't mention it.

When the wedding was mentioned, Jingxian became jealous immediately, and hugged him and kissed him on the side of the cheek.

Zhang Shuwan:? ?

Normal people's brain circuits can't understand this cause-and-effect relationship, and she murmured indignantly: "No wonder I gained so much weight. It turns out that I ate too much dog food."

……

After saying goodbye to Zhang Shuwan, Lu Yingjiu and Jingxian got into the car.

Lu Yingjiu said: "There is still one month of safe time. We need to find supporters from the Ye, Chu, and Chen families to complete the formation together."

"Who do you want to find first?" Jing Xian asked, "There should be someone in your mind."

Lu Yingjiu didn't answer, she rolled down the window, outside was the rattling sycamore tree.

He is still wearing a white shirt today, letting the wind blow his collar, and his hair is gilded in the light.

The sun was shining brightly and the sky was as blue as a wash.He narrowed his brown eyes like a cat, and with a bit of laziness, he raised the corner of his mouth and said, "Of course...not at all."

Jing Xian: "..."

Jing Xian volunteered: "Then I'll kidnap a few for you. You can have as many as you want. Men, women, young and old are not a problem."

"Don't commit crimes, I don't want to cry with you behind bars." Lu Yingjiu poked him and said with a smile, "However, let's start from the Ye family."

He bowed his head.

The chat page of the mobile phone stopped at "Ye Feng".

The author has something to say: Lu Yingjiu: I had no friends when I was young

Zhang Shuwan: Ah, so pitiful...

Lu Yingjiu: Yes, I am so lonely that I only have my husband

Zhang Shuwan:? ? ?
