Chapter seven hundred and eighty fifth Lan Ruo ghost thing
The next day, Li Xiuyuan had already prepared his carriage and horses and was ready to set off for Jinling City.
After bidding farewell to his parents, he suddenly remembered something when passing by the newly built mansion. He got out of the carriage with the maid beside him and came to the backyard of the new mansion.
"Young Master, this place has not been built yet, what are you doing here?" Xiaodie asked.
"I brought a camellia and a lotus from the capital to plant here." Li Xiuyuan said.
As he spoke, he took out a white lotus in full bloom from the Ghost King's cloth bag and placed it in the pool in the backyard.
"Girl Lotus, your evil deeds are serious. I have injured your foundation and blocked your path. If you can stay in this lotus pond and reflect, you will still be you after a thousand years, and you can continue your path of practice.
If you don't want me to send you to reincarnation, you can make your own choice." Li Xiuyuan said.
The white lotus fell into the pond, and without hesitation slowly floated away in the middle of the pond.
"If that's the case, then it's better to live here and practice."
Li Xiuyuan ignored the white lotus and then went to a flower bed and planted a bright camellia.
But at this moment, this camellia is languid and looks like it is about to wither.
"You died in vain in the palace, and your soul is parasitic in the camellia. If I send you to reincarnation like this, it will not be a good result. It is better to stay here and practice. It is better to become an immortal and a Taoist one day than to wander around in the human world.
." Li Xiuyuan said and then said: "Third sister, go and call Li Shanchang."
"Who is Li Shanchang?"
"That ginseng baby, I gave him a name yesterday, Li Shanchang." Li Xiuyuan said.
Third Sister Hu gave her a wink, twisted her slim waist and left. After a while, she came over with a fair-skinned and fat boy in her arms.
"Let me go, let me go. You monster, don't be so presumptuous. Do you know who I am? Then Li Xiuyuan from Guobei County is my younger brother. If you offend me, you will die miserably." The ginseng baby struggled hard and was obviously beaten.
Bringing great reluctance.
"Well, what did you just say?" Li Xiuyuan stared at him with burning eyes.
The ginseng baby immediately shrank his eyes, as if he had seen an evil ghost, like the King of Hell, but then his face suddenly changed and he said with a smile: "Dad, why are you here? The child is kowtowing to you."
Li Xiuyuan patted his head and said, "Be good, spit here, and I won't beat you today."
He pointed at the languid camellia path.
Under this threat, the ginseng baby had no choice but to spit on the camellia.
Although his Taoist practice has been blocked, the essence of ginseng baby is still there. A mouthful of saliva is a breath of medicinal essence of ginseng essence, which can make mortal bones grow muscle and prolong life.
After getting an ordinary camellia, it immediately becomes vigorous and full of vitality. The branches and leaves instantly turn green and translucent, the flowers bloom brightly, and the surrounding flowers and plants feel this breath and grow at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The garden was transformed in a matter of moments.
"Give it to me." Ginseng Baby stretched out her chubby little hand and said.
"What?" Li Xiuyuan asked.
"Fairy fruit, I'm hungry after spitting out this mouthful of saliva. Why don't you give me the fairy fruit?" Ginseng Baby said.
Li Xiuyuan glared: "You still want to eat it. How many fairy fruits did you eat when you were in Yunya Immortal Cave? You don't even look at how fat you have become. If you still have ginseng essence, I think you will grow into a carrot."
From now on I’ll just call it radish essence.”
Despite the scolding, he still took two fairy fruits and gave them to him.
"Let's go." The ginseng baby got the fairy fruit and ran away in a flash.
"Xiaodie, tell the housekeeper to take good care of the flowers and plants in the backyard, especially the camellias and lotus flowers. Don't let anyone hold them. Just water them on weekdays." Li Xiuyuan said again.
Xiaodie nodded and went to send a message to the housekeeper.
After completing these trivial tasks, he just left Guobei County in a carriage, accompanied by Xiaodie, Du Chunhua and Hu Sanjie, headed for Jinling City under the escort of a group of guards.
On the way, Li Xiuyuan asked: "By the way, where did Wu Fei go after he came back from his last trip to the capital? I haven't seen him for a while."
"Back to the eldest young master, Wu Fei has gone back to Sichuan Mountain. He said that his wife is expecting a baby, so he asked the master for a long leave. Does the eldest young master have anything to do with him?" A guard asked outside the carriage.
"Really? It's okay. I just asked casually. Is his wife going to give birth? This is a good thing. I will have time to congratulate him another day." Li Xiuyuan said.
Wu Fei also did a lot of things with him, and he was a little worried after not being around for a while.
Looking back, Li Xiuyuan looked at the third sister sitting in the carriage.
The third sister's beautiful eyes moved slightly, and she said with a sweet smile: "What are you looking at, my husband? Did your family do anything wrong again?"
"No, I just want to trouble my third sister to go to Qingshan, send your eldest sister back, and send a letter to my father-in-law." Li Xiuyuan took out a white fox head from the Ghost King's bag.
Although only his head is left, he is still alive.
"Sister."
Sister Hu looked at the white fox's head and began to think deeply: "I really need to trouble my father about this matter. Well, let's leave it to the slave family. The slave family will send the eldest sister back to Qingshan. As for how the father arranges her, that is his business, and the slave family also
I can't control it anymore, but what happens in the palace is up to the slave family.
I will explain it to my father, and I will not let the young master suffer unexplained grievances."
As she spoke, she took the white fox's head and put it into her sleeves. Then she transformed into a red fox and jumped out, then soared into the sky and flew into the sky.
"After the matter is settled, I will go to Jinling City to find my husband."
The third sister disappeared after leaving these words.
After knowing that Li Xiuyuan could drive away ghosts and gods with his righteousness, she was not worried about any dangers he would encounter on the road.
This is the boundary of Yangzhou, and no one dares to cause trouble here.
"By the way, stop when you pass by Lanruo Temple. I want to burn a stick of incense there." Li Xiuyuan said after watching Sister Hu leave.
"Yes, young master."
"Lanruo Temple, isn't that the place where the young lady and the young master met?" Xiaodie's eyes lit up and she said softly: "The young master is going to burn incense as a wish?"
Du Chunhua said: "But I heard from people in the village that Lanruo Temple was haunted by demons, and all the monks in the temple have left. Now it is a deserted temple, so I'd better not go there, young master."
Li Xiuyuan pinched Du Chunhua's cheek; "When did you get the news? Now Lanruo Temple has been renovated with money from the Li family. A mage has also been hired to drive away ghosts. It's fine now. It's just not open to the public on weekdays."
That’s all.”
Du Chunhua's face turned red; "I really don't know about this."
Since Lanruo Temple was renovated, except for the original statues of Arhat and King Kong, the rest are some new statues.
There are two ghosts and gods wearing masks and dressed in white and black, there are ghosts and gods with bull heads and horse heads, there are also ghost kings with ferocious faces, as well as statues of Li Zhong, Tieshan and others.
This is no longer a Buddhist temple.
More like a temple.
All kinds of weird gods are worshiped.
However, because the monster troubles in Lanruo Temple have not completely subsided, there are still few people who dare to offer incense here. Only some unsuspecting outsiders will come here to offer incense.
Of course, there is no danger for pilgrims to offer incense here, just like other temples.
I guess it will take several years for this place to flourish.
The people responsible for taking care of Lanruo Temple are some older servants of the Li family, as well as a few elderly and poor people at home. After all, the Li family will also be paid to guard Lanruo Temple here, which can give these old people a job.
After Li Xiuyuan came to Lanruo Temple, he took his two personal maids around, which was like revisiting his old place.
"Sir, this place is still the same as before. The Main Hall is still there, but the Buddha statue is gone. This is where the young lady and the slave met the young master." Xiaodie was very happy and talked about the first time they met.
"Yes, it's still the same as before." Li Xiuyuan said with emotion.
It's just that the architecture is the same, but Lanruo Temple has actually changed.
At this moment, he had noticed that there was a smell of incense blowing around him along with the breeze. These breezes were hovering around, waiting like guards and soldiers.
Although he couldn't see it, Li Xiuyuan could feel that the ghosts and gods from Lanruo Temple had arrived.
It's just that it's daytime now, so ghosts and gods can't appear.
"Meow~!"
A black cat jumped down from the roof nearby and landed in front of Li Xiuyuan.
This black cat's black fur has no trace of color, is bright and smooth, and its eyes are as black as gems. It is walking towards it now, with a human posture and full of spirituality.
"Isn't this the little black one at home? Why did the servant say that I haven't seen him for several days? It turns out he came to Lanruo Temple." Du Chunhua said angrily.
Xiaodie was also a little angry and said: "This cat is not well-raised. Last time, it caught a little white mouse and ran around the house, breaking a lot of things. In the end, the little white mouse was not caught. Master, never raise a cat again."
Already."
"Who said cats are only for catching mice? I don't raise this cat expecting it to catch mice."
Li Xiuyuan squatted down with a smile and waved his hand: "Xiao Hei, come here."
The black cat glanced at Du Chunhua and Xiaodie with a hint of disdain, then nimbly ran up to Li Xiuyuan and licked the palm of his hand, looking obedient and docile.
Li Xiuyuan picked it up, touched its head, slid over its soft fur and said, "Have you been good lately? You haven't bullied Xiaobai."
"Meow, meow~!" The black cat squinted its eyes, enjoying Li Xiuyuan's touch, and called twice without knowing what it meant.
"Only the young master can hold it, and no slaves can touch it." Xiaodie glared at the black cat.
Du Chunhua said: "I hugged her a few times before, but I stopped hugging her later."
Li Xiuyuan smiled, but didn't say much, and just walked into the hall holding the black cat.
The main hall is empty. The golden body of Tathagata Buddha was originally enshrined on the altar, but because of the disturbance caused by the tree demon, the golden body of the Buddha has disappeared. Now the altar is empty, and no new statue has been erected here.
.
"Is the eldest young master here?" A voice suddenly sounded.
But from behind the altar, a powerful man in armor came out respectfully with a bit of majesty.
"It's Li Zhong. You came just in time. There are a lot of imps imprisoned below. I passed by here today and some things should go back to the underworld, so I sent them here specially. Now I can't open the passage between Yin and Yang.
, I can’t look for you anytime and anywhere. I will go to Yangzhou to go horse racing later.
Since I took office, it is safer to get some things done."
Li Xiuyuan took out eight books of life and death from the Ghost King's cloth bag and placed them on the altar table.
They are eight books of life and death.
Li Zhong was shocked when he saw this: "What happened to the young master? Why did you say this?"
"It's nothing. My divine power is gone and I have become an ordinary person. From now on, the underworld can only be managed by you. Don't lose the book of life and death again, so that you can take good care of it." Li Xiuyuan only gave the book of life and death, not the judge.
Pen.
Because he felt that the Judge's Pen should not exist.
Changing one's life and death, and increasing one's wealth and wealth are inherently contrary to the common sense of reincarnation. Who can guarantee that this pen of judgment will always be in the hands of upright and kind ghosts and gods?
Li Zhong thought of the changes that had taken place between heaven and earth in the past few days, and the vision of ghosts crying and howling in the underworld. At this moment, he believed that it must have been affected by something the eldest young master had done. It was just that he was shallow and could not understand the changes between heaven and earth.
It's just a big deal.
Of course, not only Li Zhong, but also many gods and immortals did not know what changes had taken place in the world.
As time goes by, they will naturally be able to taste how much this world has changed since that day.
"Yes, eldest young master, I will keep a close eye on the younger one and never let the book of life and death be lost." Li Zhongxin vowed.
Li Xiuyuan said: "That's good, but there are only eight books of life and death, and there is still one missing. It must be because the time has not come. I believe that as soon as the time comes, the nine books of life and death will be gathered together again. I have a hunch that this time will not come soon."
It will take too long.”
"Okay, that's it. You can go and do your work. Now I can't take care of the affairs of the underworld as a mortal. I can only place my hope on you. I hope you won't let me down."
"I don't dare to disappoint the eldest young master. Please rest assured, eldest young master." Li Zhong felt a shiver in his heart and said immediately.
Li Xiuyuan smiled and suddenly remembered something, and took out a mirror from the Ghost King's bag: "This is the mirror of the past. I won't use it anymore. From now on, I will put it behind the gate of ghosts. The ghosts passing by will see this mirror."
After knowing about your own death, the rule is to send the new ghost home to visit relatives after seven days
Just cancel it and let them look in the mirror, so as not to burden you and give ghosts and gods a chance to cause trouble."
"This is really great. The provincial evil soldiers and ghosts have to make two trips to catch an innocent ghost." Li Zhong said happily.
Li Xiuyuan thought for a while and felt that there was nothing more to explain, so Li Zhong said goodbye, then took Xiaodie and Du Chunhua into the carriage and continued on the road.
When passing by the Wangchuan River, the ferry boatman still appeared mysteriously on the river and sent Li Xiuyuan and others across the river.
After crossing the river, when passing a village, the black cat in his arms seemed to sense something. After calling twice, it jumped out of Li Xiuyuan's arms, jumped out of the carriage, and quickly disappeared.
"The black cat ran away again." Xiaodie was about to chase it back.
Li Xiuyuan smiled and said: "Let it go, it will appear when it should appear. Don't worry, the cat you raise will not recognize it no matter how long it takes."
