Renew

Hua Su's expression was intriguing. For a moment, Rong Li felt that she should know.

Rong Li breathed a sigh of relief, "What did I hide from you?"

Hua Su just smiled and said nothing.

The ghost market has to open at midnight, no matter where you are, as long as you think about it, you can enter the ghost market.

The reinforcements from the imperial capital have arrived, and the horseshoe chariots pass by Jinmin and rush into Pengzhou.

Rong Xin was beating very fast. On the road, she drew a curtain with painting ghosts and wore it on her head as she hurried along. Others couldn't see her, and she couldn't see the people crying along the way. My sad heart just calmed down a little.

In these two lives, it seemed that it was the first time for her to feel such compassion. When she was in Qi'an, she felt sorry for herself before it was too late, so how could she feel pity for others.

This thought was extremely strange, his heart was beating wildly, and when it jumped up his throat, it seemed like a fishbone was stuck.

It was so strange that it was like experiencing it for the first time in ten lifetimes, so she was at a loss and just wanted to run away.

When he arrived at the nearby county, Rong Li took off the curtain and no longer covered his face. Now that Rong Qi has cleared his grievances, she doesn't have to hide anymore.

Perhaps it was due to the ghostly aura, but she also seemed to be enveloped in cold air. Although she was good-looking, she didn't look like an ordinary person, and her face was pale and sick, just like someone crawling out of a coffin.

"Take a break, I will wake you up at night." Hua Su said.

Rong Li went to an inn to take a rest, and hadn't slept well for the past few days, and now she fell asleep as soon as she touched the pillow, and even the noise downstairs couldn't wake her up, as if even if the sky fell, she couldn't wake her up Pull it out of the dream.

It was probably because she was tired. She usually had few dreams, but this time she fell into a dream. In a trance, she saw herself in purgatory. Looking at it again, it wasn't purgatory, it was better than purgatory.

Fleeing people were everywhere, the river poured into the city, and the waves that turned up seemed to have wisdom, like hands, dragging the people into the torrent.

The common people complained unceasingly, cried heaven and earth, and were submerged in the flood, and they lost their lives in an instant.

The roof tiles were flooded by the flood, and there was no city, it seemed to be a sea.

There seemed to be something moving in the water, a large shadow was swimming in the water, and upon closer inspection it turned out to be people with fish tails, and a name suddenly came to her mind——

Dongming Lake Fish Fairy.

No wonder Hua Su said that the Yuxian was just a title they gave themselves. He said that he was a Yuxian, and he looked like the merman in the storybook.

In the dream, all the people in the city turned into dead souls, karma was all over the sky, and the blue sky was suddenly enveloped in black and red.These karma should have fallen on those fish monsters, but unexpectedly, the dead souls of the people were suddenly swept away, chewed and swallowed, and the surging karma then fell elsewhere.

The ones who inherited the karma were the ghosts who later swallowed these dead souls.

Rong Li was dizzy, his hands and feet were weak, he wanted to see the appearance of the ghost clearly, but he couldn't.

"wake up."

Rong Li suddenly opened his eyes and sat up from the bed. In the past, he always felt tired when he woke up, and he had to sit for a while to recover, but now he was extremely awake, and the scene of the dream was still in front of his eyes.

Hua Su sat on the side, "What did you dream about?"

Rong Li's body was drenched with sweat, her hair sticking to the side of her face in strands, panting for breath, she shook her head and lied: "I dreamed of the people of Pengzhou."

Hua Su seemed to be convinced, "It's so far away from Pengzhou, you can still dream of them, are you frightened?"

Rong Li tore off the quilt, and the wind immediately wrapped his waist and abdomen. When he woke up, he was so hot that he lifted the quilt, but he became cold again.She nodded, "Those people are so pitiful, they are innocent."

Hua Su's face remained unchanged, "There are too many innocent people in the world, how many people do you feel sorry for?"

Rong Li blinked, turned his head to look out the window, and saw a faint orange light on the window paper, which was the light from the lantern hanging outside the building.

Hua Su said softly, "Zishi is the time to enter the ghost market."

Rong Li raised his hands and covered his head, "Fortunately you woke me up, otherwise I don't know how long I would have slept."

Hua Su leaned away, "I woke you up after seeing your face covered in cold sweat."

Chuizhu groaned and sat up from the pillow, arched Rongli's face with her fluffy head, obviously this big ghost was still there, but it seemed to be a little more unscrupulous, not so scary anymore.

Hua Su snorted, "It kept barking just now, maybe it was hungry, so I fed it some dried fish."

Rong Li slowed down a bit, not knowing what the dream meant, so he simply put it aside, scratched Chui Zhu's chin and asked: "It doesn't mean that the time has come, how do we enter the ghost market?"

Hua Su glanced at the cat in her hand, "It's not easy for ordinary people to enter the ghost market, but you have a painting ghost in your hand, so why not get in."

Rong Li's eyes lit up, he took out the painting ghost, without saying a word, he already passed his hand over, wanting Hua Su to hold her hand to draw.

Hua Su saw that her eyes were bright, but she couldn't hide the slyness in her eyes. She didn't know if she had been tricked or something, so she took her hand without joking.

The woman's wrist bones are slender and her skin is as thick as fat, which is not very different from her own, which can make her feel excited.

Rong Li said softly: "I gave you the hand, you can draw."

Hua Su's face was stern, his heart seemed to be scratched, but he still pretended to be unhappy, and forced out a sentence from his throat, "You treat me as one of your girls? It's pretty smooth."

Rong Li rolled his eyes, "Where did I order you, I didn't even say a few words, how could I order you."

Hua Su snorted, and took her hand to draw a door. There was a huge ghost head on the door. The ghost head opened its mouth wide and showed its fangs. It looked very ferocious, as if it would eat everyone belly.

The moment I stopped writing, the gate of the ghost was formed, and a pair of hands condensed with ghost energy tore open the huge mouth of the ghost head, and the door opened immediately.

Hua Su let go of Rongli's hand, stood up and said, "Come."

Rong Li followed up, took a step forward and stepped into the door, not daring to lag behind, grabbed the corner of Hua Su's clothes fiercely, and felt much more at ease.

The Skinning Ghost was originally attached to the wall, so he followed after seeing it.

The moment he entered the door, his eyes suddenly lit up, Rong Li hastily raised his hand to cover his eyes, for fear that he would be blinded by the light.

The ghost market was full of ghosts, and it shouldn't be daytime, she slowly put down her hands, only to realize that the reason why the ghost market is so bright is not because of a red sun, but because of the lanterns everywhere.

The lantern floated in mid-air, and when I looked again, the ghost aura floating beneath it was clearly held up by the ghost aura.

It really is very lively, almost like a temple fair in the world, if not for the floating ghosts who come and go, at first glance, I would think I am in the mortal world.

Some ghosts come and go, some are long and some are young, some have broken necks, some are sticking out their tongues, some are bleeding from seven orifices, and some are crawling inch by inch on the ground.

Rong Li squeezed the corner of the clothes in his hand a little more, he couldn't help holding his breath, for fear that these ghosts would find out that a mortal had sneaked into the ghost market.

If these ghosts find out, they must rush forward and eat her.

Hua Su lightly said: "Don't be afraid." She raised her hand towards Rongli's eyebrows to hide her anger.

Only then did Rongli let go of his tightly shut mouth, and took a deep breath, "What are you looking for?"

Hua Su said meaningfully: "Come with me."

Rong Li did not doubt that he was there, Hua Su took a step, and she followed, not daring to look away, keeping a close eye on the black-clothed and long-braided ghost in front of him.

Hua Su walked through the ghosts without looking sideways, "This ghost city is a mile long, follow me closely, if you get lost, I can't protect you."

Rong Li didn't believe it, with this ghost's current cultivation base, it might not matter much if he demolished this entire road.

After walking along the long street for a while, Hua Su walked into an alley.

There are a lot of vendors in the ghost market, but the doors of the houses in the alleys are all closed, and the door couplets are not posted. There is a painting of a ghost head in front of the door, which is almost the same as the one Hua Su used to paint before.

Hua Su knocked on the door four times, and then stopped. According to the mortal storybook, if the door stops after being knocked four times, then the knocker may be a ghost.

Rong Xin was startled, turned his head and glanced out of the alley, only to see a crooked woman standing outside, her body covered in naked clothes, her body was wrapped in strangely long hair like clothes.

The female ghost stared at her for a while, twisted her neck, leaned over and walked away muttering something.

Rongli's back felt cold, and his fingers were also a little cold, so he asked in a low voice, "What exactly are you looking for?"

There was a rustling sound inside the door, not like footsteps, but like the sound of leaves being blown.

When he was still in Qi'an, Rongli lived in the bamboo courtyard for a long time, and was often awakened by the sound of bamboo leaves at night.

Hua Su said: "This is coming."

The door opened suddenly, and an old man with a stooped back and one eye was blind stood inside, asking expressionlessly, "What's the matter."

Hua Su said softly, "Look for the bamboo knocker."

Rong Li always felt that this bamboo knocking ghost sounded familiar, and then he remembered that when she was in Rong's residence, she asked Xiaofu to buy a Taoist priest. The Taoist priest mentioned it, but he said "ghost knocking bamboo".

When passing through a bamboo forest at night, one will hear the sound of bamboo being chopped down, and the road ahead is blocked by broken bamboos.

But what did Hua Su come to find the bamboo knocker?

The old man didn't even have the slightest expression on his face. Hearing this, his cloudy eyes widened slightly, and he hurriedly tried to close the door, but the door was blocked by Hua Su's raised hand. Even though he tried his best, he couldn't close the door .

Hua Su calmly pressed against the door, "I wanted to come to you a long time ago, but unfortunately the time has not come. I was afraid that you would escape, but now I don't have such worries."

The old man was trembling all over, his eyes were wide open, and he was still exerting his strength, but the door in front of him remained motionless.

Hua Su breathed out a breath of ghostly aura, obviously the ghostly aura was like flying smoke, but the old man withdrew his hand abruptly, turned around and fled underground.

Rong Li was stunned, seeing Hua Su stepping into the threshold, he hurriedly followed, walking in such a hurry that he almost knocked his legs.

After entering the house, she realized that the yard was full of dwarf bamboos, and the bamboo leaves were thickly piled up on the ground.

Rong Li mumbled: "Then the old man must be a thug?"

Hua Su nodded, but didn't respond, and stood in the yard slowly rolling his eyes, not missing even an inch.She suddenly tore away Rong Li's hand that was clenched on the corner of her clothes, and slapped it far away.

The stones paved in the yard were lifted up suddenly, and were shaken to another place with a crash, and the yellow mud underneath was exposed.

The ground under his feet seemed to be arched by something, and a small slope bulged out.

Rong Li almost couldn't stand still, he hastily raised his hand to support the bamboo tree beside him, the bamboo shook violently, as if trying to shake off her hand.

This bamboo is still intelligent, and the leaves rustle when shaken, as if shouting.

Rong Li wanted to withdraw his hand, but he didn't want the bamboo to move, and caught her hand in it.The moment her hands were clamped, she seemed to understand what the bamboos were saying.

"save."

"Help."

Not trying to get rid of it, but clearly asking for help.

Why does the bamboo ask for help? Is it because I don’t want to be split by the bamboo knocker?

Rong Li turned his head and saw Hua Su's hand was stuck into the mud, half of his arm was buried in it, he was half squatting, his silver and black braids were winding around his feet.

Hua Su pulled out her hand abruptly, holding a cloud of black mist in her hand. She flicked her arm, and the black mist in her hand suddenly congealed into a human form, isn't it the old man?

After the bamboo knocking ghost turned into a human form, Hua Su's five fingers happened to be on his neck, and his nails became sharp, digging out five blood holes on his neck.

Hua Su said coldly: "You bamboo knocker is like a fish returning to water after being in the mud, but it's a pity that you still couldn't escape my palm."

The bamboo knocking ghost was strangled by the throat, unable to say a word, only a soft cry of uh huh came out of his mouth.

Hua Su looked down at it, her phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, "Did you never expect that I would come back to look for you?"

The bamboo knocking ghost's face was flushed, and the veins on his forehead popped out.

"I didn't want to look for you. After all, you were also bound by You Mingzun back then. You can only do what he tells you to do." Hua Su said coldly.

Rong Li stood far away, his hands were still clamped between two bamboos, the bamboos were afraid of hurting her, so they didn't dare to clamp her too tightly.

She didn't stop at all, and let him hold her, she was startled when she heard it, she didn't want this bamboo knocking ghost to be involved with Lord Nether.

Hua Su looked at him coldly, "I had no choice but to leave Cangming City. I came to the ghost market to look for you once before, but you were hiding from me everywhere."

The bamboo knocking ghost stared, the eyeballs protruding slightly, as if the eyes were about to fall out of their sockets.

Hua Su mocked: "Do you still want to help Shendu make another painting ghost?"

The bamboo knocking ghost's body became pale, as if his soul was about to be crushed, he said in a hoarse voice, "How do you know..."

Hua Su suddenly let go, and the bamboo knocking ghost fell to the ground, stroking his neck and gasping for breath.

She said: "Shendu will do this sooner or later."

The bamboo knocking ghost panted for a while, Xu knew that he couldn't escape, so he lay on the ground motionless.He hunched his back, panting very hoarsely, and said after a while: "I'm just a ghost peeling bamboo, I don't have the ability to be a ghost for adults."

Hua Su scoffed.

The bamboo knocking ghost trembled, "Your Excellency asked me to cut bamboo a hundred years ago, and since then, he has never looked for me again."

Hua Su pursed her lips and remained silent.

The bamboo knocking ghost said again: "Give me my life, I won't help him, I'll just help you, I'll cut as many sticks of painting ghosts as you want."

Rong Li was stunned when he heard that, can utensils such as Huasong be made just by making them?

Hua Su scoffed coldly, stood up straight and looked down at him, with disdain in his eyes, "If you can still create a painting ghost, you don't have to be in such a miserable situation today. However, even if you and Shen Du have the same relationship with You Ming as before. With the ability of the respected one, we must never create another painting ghost."

The bamboo knocking ghost froze all over.

Hua Su said again: "I didn't intend to come here today to want your life. At the beginning, Youming Zuntu Village sacrificed thousands of human souls and buried mortal corpses under the bamboo so that Ting Xianzhu would be soaked in resentment. Before ordering you to chop bamboo, what else did he do?"

The eyes of the bamboo knocking ghost swayed, "That, that bamboo has been alive thousands of years ago, but it has never transformed into a form. When You Mingzun slaughtered the village, there were hundreds of mortals in the village. The fairy bamboo nourishes it, so that it can be infected with ghost energy and transform into a ghost."

Rong Li's forehead twitched when he heard that, there are hundreds of mortals, the village is not small, it must not become a ghost village...

She suddenly recalled what she saw in her dream, and asked tentatively, "How did he slaughter the village, did he do it himself, or did he borrow someone's hand?"

The bamboo knocking ghost saw that the woman was with Hua Su, so he replied: "I don't know, I just remember that the river flooded back that day, flooding the whole village in an instant, and then Lord You Ming released his ghost energy and dragged the mortals who fled ashore into the water. .”

Rong Xin was startled, could it be the same place as what she saw in her dream?She hurriedly asked again: "What's the name of that village?"

The bamboo knocking ghost replied: "Chen Liangdian."

She had never heard of this name before, she moved her mouth, followed by a silent recitation, and secretly remembered it in her heart.

If it was the same place as what she saw in her dream, then the ghost who swallowed the souls of mortals must be Nether Lord.

Hua Su didn't want to know what the name of the village was, so he said coldly, "What's next?"

The bamboo knocking ghost flinched and said: "Then, he found pouring ink, pouring ink is a good thing, originally only existed in the Nine Heavens, and when the Mohua demon came down to earth, he was caught by Lord Nether."

"Do you know where that pouring ink is now?" Hua Su frowned.

The bamboo knocking ghost shook his head violently: "I really don't know. If you want to use the ink on the body of the demon queen, you have to take its blood. At that time, the pouring ink was so painful that she was dry and empty. After the blood flowed out, she suddenly turned into an old woman. It wanted to escape, but was captured by You Mingzun, who insisted on taking the last drop of ink away."

"It's dead?" Hua Su showed a trace of anger on his face.

Rongli has never seen her angry. Although this ghost is always chattering in her ears, if others do something that displeases her, she will at least mock her and annoy her. .

Is it because you feel sorry for the demon, or because of something else?

Hua Su squatted down and put an index finger against the bamboo ghost's throat. His nails became long and sharp in an instant, as if this one finger could kill the bamboo ghost.

The bamboo knocking ghost held his breath in horror, but he didn't dare to move, for fear that if he moved, the fingers would penetrate his neck.

Hua Su asked again: "Is it dead?"

The bamboo knocking ghost didn't even dare to speak loudly, fearing that his neck would move too much, so he went up to the finger, "I... really don't know, after the bamboo was cut, Lord Nether swallowed all the souls of mortals, My whole body is full of karma, and even my hair is glowing red, I, I have never seen such karma before, and I didn't pay attention to where the spirit ink went."

Hua Su breathed out suddenly, and his chest heaved together, "At that time, what else did you see?"

Rong Xin tensed, what she saw in her dream was indeed Chen Liang's shop.

Her hands were still caught between the bamboo trees, and her head was poked out by the beads hanging from the skirt, and she let out a soft cry.

The bamboo knocking ghost was really afraid, and he didn't dare to hide a word, so he shook it all out.

The bamboo knocking ghost said: "I left late at the time, wanting to see if there were any dead souls missing, so as to have a good time. I didn't expect to run into a fairy covered in water mist."

"Immortal?" Hua Su's voice was so cold that it seemed that it could fall out of ice.

Rong Li lowered his head, pursed his lips lightly, and said in his heart, don't say any more.

The bamboo knocking ghost said again: "The fairy is ferrying the rest of the dead souls. I haven't eaten any of them, and I dare not snatch them from her."

Hua Su snorted coldly, "You read it right?"

"That's right, but it's a pity that the fairy's body is covered with mist, and she can only vaguely see that she is a woman, but she doesn't know what she looks like." The bamboo knocker said hurriedly, "She raised her hand, and the river water that poured into the village quickly receded. back."

Hua Su said coldly, "Dong Heng."

She snorted, and said again: "I only know that Yuxian helped You Mingzun to flood the village, but I didn't expect that she was there at that time, and even rescued her soul from the flood. Is this a bad face and a red face?"

Rong Li blinked his downcast eyes, and coughed a few times.

There must be a misunderstanding.
