Chen Mengsheng had no choice but to lie to Xiaoliuzi and say that he had not been found. It was better to give Erbaldi a hope than to give them bad news.
Chen Mengsheng wrote the twenty-four mantras of exorcism and subduing spells into mantras, and gave them to Xiaoliuzi so that she could practice them frequently. It was almost three o'clock outside, and Chen Mengsheng was going to Qianyuan. Xiaoliuzi was very curious.
I was extremely scared. I had no choice but to follow Chen Mengsheng. Chen Mengsheng wanted to practice Xiao Liuzi's courage so that he would no longer panic if he encountered a ghost again in the future.
The two people arrived at Qianyuan one after another, which looked even more eerie and terrifying in the night. Xiao Liuzi walked with Chen Mengsheng's hand with his eyes closed. Since Chen Mengsheng already knew that Lu Wuji died in the well, he walked directly
He came to the well. From time to time, strange laughter came from the big room behind him. Xiao Liuzi was so frightened by the laughter that his face turned pale and his hands and feet were cold. Chen Mengsheng chuckled, clasped his hands and chanted a mantra. Eight night wandering gods immediately appeared in front of Chen Mengsheng.
Beside him, he saluted and bowed to Chen Mengsheng.
Xiao Liuzi looked at these eight little guys who were shorter than him and wore hats, and he felt less scared. He asked, "Are you brothers? Why are you all wearing the same clothes?"
Ye Zhong smiled and said: "Haha, we are the ghost messengers of the Netherworld. We are not brothers. It is rare for a little girl to have a pair of yin and yang eyes to see us."
You Guang said: "I wonder what the judge wants to see us for today?"
"There is a child who died in vain in this well. This time I want to trouble the Night Walker God to fish out the child's body."
"Haha, it's a trivial matter. Judge, please wait for a moment, I will go down into the well." Before you could finish your words, You Guang jumped into the well with a porcupine sound.
A white light shot straight out of the well, and You Guang held the body of a five-year-old boy covered in black in his hands. After two months of soaking in the well, the child had been completely deformed, and his whole body was swollen and round.
, Fortunately, the child's body was not seriously rotten due to the cold water in the well. Xiaoliuzi kept vomiting from the moment he fished the child out, and finally even vomited out yellow water.
Chen Mengsheng cast a spirit-calling spell on the child. It was much easier to call the spirit with a corpse. Lu Wuji walked over with a smile, but when the child saw such a large group of people, all of them were unfamiliar to him. His mouth squeaked.
When he started crying, he kept calling for mother. "Your nickname is Lu Wuji, Peng'er, right?"
The child stopped crying and looked at Chen Mengsheng and said: "How do you know? Peng'er is waiting for mother there. Peng'er is very good and mother has been out for a long time. Peng'er misses mother. Wow... wow..." said
After that the child started crying again.
Chen Mengsheng also knew that it was difficult for a five-year-old child to communicate the difference between life and death. He could only ask: "Then did your parents come back after they went out?"
"No, I fell into the well. When the sun was shining in the sky, I didn't dare to come up. The sun shining on Peng'er was very painful. When the sun was shining, I had to hide in the well and the house. I only waited until the sun went out.
Dare to come out. I saw you yesterday. I also saw this sister. She was supporting a little brother. She is so shameless." Peng'er shaved his face towards Xiao Liuzi to shame her. Xiao Liuzi was talked about by this kid for a while.
Face flushed.
The eight night wandering gods were also amused by Peng'er's words. Ye Zhong said: "Little brother, do you want to find another father and mother?"
"Think about it, there is no one to play with Peng'er, so I went to the neighbors to find someone to play with me, but they ignored me."
Chen Mengsheng knew that this man had a different path. No wonder he would be talked about in such a bad way when he asked about the Lu family in Qianyuan. Chen Mengsheng recited the rebirth mantra, and Hei Wuchang stood in front of Chen Mengsheng and others.
Hei Wuchang saluted Chen Mengsheng and said, "There are so many ghosts today. The eight night wandering gods are all here."
The Yeyoushen greeted Hei Wuchang one after another, and Youguang smiled and said, "Today I was sent by the judge to settle a public case in the human world."
Chen Mengsheng pointed at Hei Wuchang and said to Lu Wuji: "This child lost his mother and his father has disappeared, and he himself has become a ghost in vain. Please help the black envoys to take this child back to the underworld and enter reincarnation."
"Don't worry, Lord Judge, such a weak child will not be punished by those four divisions. After drinking Meng Po soup, he can enter reincarnation." Hei Wuchang took Lu Wuji away, and Chen Mengsheng struck the child with a thunderous fire.
The corpse was burned into flying smoke. The eight night wandering gods said goodbye to Chen Mengsheng, and Chen Mengsheng took Xiaoliuzi back to Nengren Temple. From then on, the Qianyuan was peaceful...
When the lanterns first came on, there was a lot of traffic outside the Zuixian Restaurant in Huzhou Prefecture. Only when Chen Mengsheng arrived outside the Zuixian Restaurant could he realize the pain of Zheng Weimin who had no money and did not dare to enter. The doorman was cold when he saw Chen Mengsheng's clothes.
They said to each other: "Master, are you here alone? We only buy reserved tables here, not single customers."
"I want to inquire about someone, two months ago..." Before Chen Mengsheng could finish speaking, the boy had already left impatiently.
Chen Mengsheng sighed and asked the donkey cart parked outside the restaurant about Lu Yunxiao's drunken return to Qianyuan two months ago, but the donkey cart handlers knew nothing about it... Just when Chen Mengsheng planned to return without success.
, I only heard someone behind me shouting: "My benefactor, please stay."
When Chen Mengsheng turned around, he only saw a man in rich clothes bowing to him. When he looked closely, that person turned out to be Xiao Zhuzhu. After three days, it was really time to look at him with admiration. Xiao Zhuzhu, who was so poor and penniless three days ago,
Nowadays it is very different from that time.
Xiao Zhuzhu said with a smile: "Thanks to my benefactor on the Lin'an ship that day, I became rich today." Xiao Zhuzhu took out a fifty-tael ingot from his sleeve and stuffed it into Chen Mengsheng's hand, and took it
Chen Mengsheng entered Zuixian Restaurant. The waiter in the restaurant looked at Xiao Zhuzhu from a distance as if he knew him well, with a charming smile on his face.
"Uncle Xiao is here. I'll reserve the second floor seat for you today."
Chen Mengsheng did not expect that after paying the boat fee for Xiao Zhuzhu three days ago, Xiao Zhuzhu today was no longer what he used to be. It was not suitable to return the fifty taels of silver to him, so he followed Xiao Zhuzhu into the private seats on the second floor.
After three drinks and five dishes, Chen Mengsheng couldn't help but ask: "My little brother, I haven't seen you for three days, but you won money?"
Xiao Zhuzhu said proudly: "My dear friend, you don't know that when I, Xiao Zhuzhu, came out of Lin'an, I didn't have any capital to win money?"
"Then Brother Xiao must have encountered something good, right?"
Xiao Zhuzhu stood up and shouted to the waiter outside the booth: "Hey, bring me a plate of Taihu crabs here. If you don't pay seven taels, be careful, Uncle Xiao will lift the table for you. Then take the thirty-year-old flower carvings from the altar,
The account will be placed on your head, Mr. Pan."
When the waiters outside the seats heard this, they sang and sang in response. Xiao Zhuzhu turned around and cursed: "Today, I, Xiao Zhuzhu, invited my benefactor, and he even used this kind of wine and food to try to frustrate me. This Pan Duoyu
You are looking for bad luck on your own."
Chen Mengsheng asked: "Brother Xiao has friends here?"
"My dear benefactor, this is my first time in Huzhou, Xiao Zhuzhu. Where do I have friends from? Pan Duoyu must have done something wrong with me. Otherwise, how could I be so generous?"
The door to the private dining room was opened by the waiter, and a plate of crimson and fragrant Taihu crabs and a jar of Huadiao wine were placed on the table. The waiter held the tray and asked, "Master Xiao, do you have any other orders?"
"What about Mr. Pan?"
"Second Master is probably in Ruyifang right now. Master Xiao can go there and have a look."
"Oh, I know, you go down." The guy closed the door and went out.
Chen Mengsheng asked: "I wonder what happened to Mr. Pan, Brother Xiao?"
"My dear benefactor, come and taste the taste of these Taihu crabs, and let's have a drink. That Pan Duoyu is not a good person, so don't spoil our enjoyment of the wine because of him."
"Chen Mengsheng has never liked people who speak hesitantly. Brother Xiao drank slowly. Chen Mengsheng said goodbye. Brother Xiao's hospitality was appreciated by Chen Mengsheng."
"Don't be upset, my benefactor. It's just because this matter involves three lives, so I don't want to bother my benefactor with this mess. Since my benefactor wants to know about Xiao Zhuzhu, I'll tell you..."
Three days ago, I just wanted to leave Lin'an City to avoid debt. Who knew that I would come to Huzhou Prefecture? It was dark and late at night and I had no money to stay in a hotel. Just when I was not sure where to sleep, I saw people coming from a distance.
Got a donkey cart.
When I saw that the back of the donkey cart was empty, I climbed onto the donkey cart secretly, hoping to find a place to stay in the donkey cart.
Later, I curled up in the corner and fell asleep in the donkey cart. I was woken up by the quarrel between the two people. I looked out from the hole in the back cover of the donkey cart and saw the handlebars and handlebars of the driver.
A very well-dressed young man was competing for money. After listening carefully, I probably understood about half of it.
That young master is Pan Duoyu, the third owner of Zuixian Restaurant.
Chen Mengsheng secretly wondered if this handlebar figure was the person he wanted to find? But then he thought that there were no coincidences in the world, so he listened calmly as Xiao Zhuzhu continued to speak.
Xiao Zhuzhu took a sip of wine and said: "I heard what the driver said that if Pan Duoyu didn't give him five thousand taels of silver, he would sue the government for what happened two months ago. Pan Duoyu said that he had already given him one thousand taels of silver.
I gave two silver coins to the handlebar type, but I wouldn’t give it to him if he wanted any more money. The two of them seemed to be arguing very hard. I saw that Pan Duoyu was riding the handlebar type and unpreparedly picked up a big stone from the ground and threw it at him.
On his head..."
"Ah, what happened next?"
"Later, Pan Duoyu put the handlebar type on the back hood. Fortunately, I huddled in the corner and was not seen by him. Pan Duoyu drove the donkey cart to the wild fields south of the city and threw the handlebar type there.
I secretly got out of the car and lay down in the haystacks on the side of the road. I didn't dare to get up until Pan Duoyu left. I went to see if the handlebar was dead, but I didn't expect that Pan Duoyu was so cruel.
Half of the handlebar type's head was broken, so I buried him. Walking back two miles, I saw the handlebar type donkey cart being placed on the road, and Pan Duoyu's whereabouts were no longer known."
"Then how did Pan Duoyu give you money?"
"I rode a donkey and chased him. He killed someone. As expected, the boy went back to Huzhou Prefecture along the original road, and I caught up with him. I went up and grabbed him, and asked him to go to the official.
.Later...later..., that boy gave me one thousand taels of silver..."
Chen Mengsheng shouted: "Take me to the place where the handlebars are buried..."
