During the day, Ping'an capital is full of people and noisy everywhere, but at night, in Beijing, except for the lights on the porches of various houses, there is only the moonlight like water, and occasionally there are noble ox carts passing by on the road, and the fire flashes And after that it was silent again.

The wheels of the bullock cart rolled over the ground slowly, and the chariot shook slightly, which was a little hypnotic.

Tuyumen Road is not far from Erjo Road, just follow Xidongyuan Road to the south, but at the end of summer, a mansion on Xidongyuan Road was destroyed by lightning, and the owner of the mansion renovated the house, resulting in too grand Luxurious chariots are temporarily impassable, so Yuan Dongshi wanted to go back to the two roads, so he had to detour to Omiya Road.

When I went there, Omiya Avenue was busy, and I opened the curtain with a cypress fan, and I could see all kinds of pedestrians passing by the chariots.When I returned, there was only a street that could barely illuminate the street, and a few scattered dogs barking.

Yuan Dongshi kept Qingming's teachings in mind, and didn't say a word along the way, even when Wei Guang, who was holding a torch outside the carriage, spoke to her, she only responded briefly once or twice.

After a few barks, the carriage suddenly stopped and swayed backward due to inertia. Yuan Dongshi supported the carriage and stabilized his figure. It was a little strange. He was about to lift the curtain to see it, but after thinking about it, he retracted it again. Cypress fan asked Wei Guang, "What's wrong?"

"Miss Dongshi, there seems to be something under the wheel." Wei Guang said.

"Is it a stone?" Yuan Dongshi yawned, and was about to close her eyes to sleep, when she suddenly heard Wei Guang's exclamation, she sat up abruptly, just as her hand touched the bamboo curtain of the chariot, she heard Wei Guang speak incoherently: "Dong, Miss Dongshi, it's a human skull that's stuck on the wheel."

Yuan Dongshi froze in her hand beside the bamboo curtain of the chariot, then put it back, she thought for a while, and said: "Don't worry about it, let's go on."

"But..." Wei Guang still hesitated.

"Omiya Road is close to Ouchi. Courtiers living nearby often enter the palace through this road, but they have never heard of anyone seeing a corpse here. Presumably this skull appeared suddenly, waiting for curious people Get out of the car and check." Yuan Dongshi said.

As soon as Wei Guang heard what she said, he hurriedly pulled the cow, patted the cow's back a few times, and urged the cow to leave.

Just as the chariot drove out, Wei Guang said in amazement: "As Miss Dongshi said, when the wheels ran over the skull, the skull disappeared." His tone brightened, and he said, "With Miss Dongshi here, These monsters and ghosts are not afraid when they come."

Yuan Dongshi silently listened to him humming a ditty outside the carriage, and thought to himself: "No, young man, it's because I broke the taboo today that you see these monsters... the night is still long."

When the car was not long, Yuan Dongshi was about to fall asleep in a daze again, when suddenly there was a sharp and weird woman's laughter next to her ear, she was woken up abruptly by the laughter, and hurriedly asked the car window Said: "Wei Guang, what's the matter?"

Through the curtain of the car, she could vaguely see the light of the torches outside. Wei Guang was not scared away by the sudden laughter, but she yelled several times before Wei Guang answered with a trembling voice: "Miss Dongshi." , There is a female ghost behind our car."

"Female ghost?" Yuan Dongshi asked, "What kind of female ghost?"

Wei Guang reluctantly replied, "I dare not look back."

Yuan Dongshi heard the words, and opened the car curtain with the cypress fan in her hand, at the same time, a gust of wind suddenly blew outside the car, blowing her bangs and temple hair a little messy, she got up and poked her head out, just in time The woman in the back who was covered in white light looked at each other. The woman was holding the shaft of the car with both hands, her hair was a little messy hanging on her shoulders, her eyes were wide open, and there was a clown-like grin on both sides of her mouth. She looked at Yuan Dongshi for a moment, A few more piercing laughter came out, then he let go of his hand suddenly, fell heavily from the shaft to the ground, and disappeared slowly.

Yuan Dongshi stared at the place where the female ghost disappeared for a while, then sat back in the car.

Yuan Guang seemed relieved, and said, "It's good that she's gone."

Yuan Dongshi had a crying face at this time: "Not good, not good at all!"

Although she knew about Wu Ji, she never cared about it. She just thought it was bad luck when she went out on the day of Wu Ji, but she never expected that she would be so unlucky.

The female ghost who laughed just now is Qianxi Nu, one of the Hundred Ghosts of the Night. Generally speaking, hearing her strange laugh in the middle of the night, it means that the person is in danger.

Omiya Road, which was not considered long at first, looks too long now.

Yuan Dongshi touched the few talisman papers in her arms through her coat. Except for the n-level shikigami summoned when she first arrived in Heianjing, she only had two SRs, Hashihime Chacha and Yaoqin Master. In a critical moment, it can still be used.

She relaxed a little now, her shoulders relaxed, and she leaned against the gently shaking carriage.

After the first two times, she couldn't sleep anymore, so she put her hands on her bent knees, tapped her fingers lightly, and counted the time boredly. Other slightly weaker orange lights flashed from time to time, which should be the lantern light under the corner of the corridor of the house on the side of the road.

With the light, at least my heart should be relaxed.

She counted to 160 seven times, and the lantern outside the curtain had just flashed by. She noticed that there was a gap in the car curtain, and the cool wind outside the car was slowly pouring in, making goose bumps involuntarily appear on the back of her hands.

She was about to tighten the curtain of the car, but the curtain had already been lifted from the outside. She thought it was only the light, but when she was about to ask what was the matter, she saw the man who opened the curtain by the light of the fire outside the car. It is not a hand, but a human head.

She widened her eyes and shrank back, only to see that the human head had slipped into the car from outside the curtain. This human head had the face of a man in his 30s and [-]s, with his eyes closed tightly, as if he was in a deep sleep. He didn't wear a Liwu hat, and his hair was in a high bun on the back of his head, while this human head was connected to a long and curved neck, like a giraffe, but it was much more flexible than a giraffe, and it could survive by the light of the fire. I saw the pulse beating slightly in the neck.

Although the head had its eyes closed, it seemed to be able to feel the breath of a living person. He only hovered around the roof of the carriage for a while, then bent his neck, and leaned towards Yuan Dongshi.

Yuandong Shi reached into his arms, took out a talisman, and threw it at the head without looking at it. For a while, the fire in the carriage was full of flames, accompanied by the sound of crackling wicks.That head seemed to feel the sudden demonic aura, it shrank back suddenly, and jumped out of the carriage. At the same time, there was a scream from outside the carriage.

Yuan Dongshi thought that Weiguang outside the car must have been frightened by this flying head, so he put away the lantern ghost, opened the bamboo curtain, and said, "It's okay, don't be afraid, that guy has already been scared away by me." La……"

When she saw the scene outside the car clearly, she froze for a moment, the words stuck in her throat, and she swallowed them again.

Standing next to her car was not Weiguang, but a young woman in twig-colored wet clothes. She fell sideways on the ground with a very beautiful posture. Her long hair hung from her shoulders to the ground, like a waterfall in midsummer. A pair of beautiful eyes were full of helplessness, and there were tears in the corners of the eyes. Seeing Yuan Dongshi lifted the curtain and leaned out, she was stunned, and then said: "No... no fear."

The corners of Yuan Dongshi's eyes twitched, she just... counted... talked to a strange woman?

She reached into her bosom, and when she was about to draw out the talisman, Wei Guang had already walked around from the other side of the car with a torch, calling out: "Miss Dongshi, what happened just now..." He saw that he was lying on the ground The woman below was stunned for a moment, then looked at Yuan Dongshi again, "She...is...a female ghost?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the woman's face was already pale, she kept shaking her head, the tears that were just floating around her eyes turned into tears, and slid down her moist and fair cheeks.

"I...I'm not a ghost." The woman wiped the tears from her cheeks with her hand, and said, "I, I came here with my brother."

"Your brother?" Yuan Dongshi frowned and thought for a while, then said, "That flying-headed man?"

The woman nodded and said: "After my brother sleeps soundly at night... it will be like this."

Yuan Dongshi nodded. According to the legend, there is indeed a Luotou clan. They are no different from ordinary people during the day. After sleeping soundly at night, their necks will become longer, and their heads will fly away from their bodies, wandering around until dawn and then flying back to their bodies. .And this person didn't know anything about the night.

Yuan Dongshi jumped off the chariot, helped the woman up, wiped off the dust on her skirt, and said: "Where does this Ji Jun live, why don't I take you back."

The woman was stunned, a little confused: "My house is a little far away, so it's not good to ask Miss to take me home."

Yuan Dongshi smiled and said: "Live far away? Then you can't leave you alone in Heianjing at night." She will take the woman's arm, pull her into the car with a smile, and say, "Late at night in Heianjing, But your brother is not the only one with flying heads."

The woman was surprised: "Are there other people whose heads can fly?"

Yuan Dongshi pulled her to sit beside her and said with a smile: "There are many monsters in Beijing, let me tell you about them."

The woman stared at her, as if waiting for her to say something strange about monsters, but at this moment, Wei Guang's voice came from outside the car: "That Ji Jun, may I ask which direction should your house go?"

The woman was about to speak, but Yuan Dongshi had already spoken first: "Turn onto Suzaku Avenue and go to Rashomon."

After receiving the order, Weiguang patted the back of the ox, pulled the ox cart and set off, the cart began to shake slightly, Yuan Dongshi turned to look at the woman, who was also staring at her, the light outside the curtain of the car came from her cheek She flashed by, and occasionally a few golden lights could be glimpsed in her eyes.

Yuan Dongshi pretended not to notice, and began to tell the story of how he conquered Qingnvfang and Chacha to the woman beside him. She spoke carefully, and the woman listened carefully. At the end, the woman said: "That woman What happened to Master Mizhen?"

Yuan Dongshi thought for a while: "I have never been to Guichuan Mountain since then, but I heard that the water divination of Guichuan Shrine has changed to another eminent monk, and that Master Mizhen also went to Rigong Hachiman alone. Meditate in the tea garden of the palace."

The woman nodded, laughed suddenly, and said: "People and demons seem to be particularly prone to being contaminated by love affairs, and they can remove the true self from it."

"That's not true." Yuan Dongshi said: "What I want to say is that there is a female ghost. Ji Jun also knows that it is popular for the nobles in Beijing to visit at night. After dark, they drive a bullock cart with a few followers. , so I went to visit the woman I was in love with. On the way, I might meet a more beautiful lonely woman. I couldn't help myself, so I forgot the lover who was still waiting in the house. After getting out of the car, I wanted to meet this woman The woman talked. Who knows, the woman smiled at him, opened her mouth wide, and swallowed his head whole."

She said, looking at the girl sitting next to her, and said, "If Jun Ji meets such a monster in Beijing, that would be bad."

The woman blinked her eyes, seemed to be very curious, and said, "Could it be that you have met it before?"

Yuan Dongshi waved his hand and said: "Although I have never met it before, strange things happen every night in Ping'an Beijing, and maybe I will meet them today." She smiled again, "It seems that I shouldn't curse myself like that. "

As soon as she finished speaking, the car stopped. She raised the curtain with the juniper fan in her hand, looked out, and said, "This is the Rashomon at the southernmost tip of Heianjing..." She turned her head and looked at it with a smile. To the woman sitting in the car, "I have arrived at Rashomon, so Ji Jun, what are you going to do next, take off my clothes, take away the money, and even this bullock cart?" She He laughed again, "But then again, what do you want the bullock cart for?"

Half of the woman's body was hidden in the darkness. Hearing this, she turned her head to look at Yuan Dongshi. There was a faint golden glow in her eyes, and red horns gradually grew on her smooth forehead. She put her knees on her knees and put her hands on them , the same posture, Qingming did it elegantly and leisurely, but when she sat up as a woman, she was a bit wild and domineering, she smiled, raised her chin, and said: "The cow, of course it is eaten.
