The infatuated silly scholar rode a tall horse towards Lanruo Temple.
Yan Chixia was drunkenly playing her sword when she suddenly heard the ringing of a bell. He knew that the big demon was coming out to kill someone.
Xiaoqian, who heard the sound of horse hoofbeats, was originally being forced by her grandma to seduce a man. The next moment, she immediately flew in the direction of the sound of horse hoofbeats.
Grandma Dryad's giant tongue suddenly wrapped around the man and sucked him into him in an instant.
Ning Caichen came to Xiaoqian's attic and climbed up again.
When Xiaoqian saw Ning Caichen, she didn't feel any joy at all, but only felt deep worry and helplessness.
She flew over and grabbed Ning Caichen's book frame, but Ning Caichen subconsciously reached out and hit her in the eye, causing him to fall down as well.
Silly Ning Caichen mistakenly thought it was blown by the wind.
"What's wrong with your eyes?"
"Hit by a fool!"
"Who?"
Xiaoqian quickly covered his mouth. At this time, Yan Chixia flew past from the other side.
There was thunder in the sky, and Nie Xiaoqian said with some joy: "It's going to rain!"
But the silly scholar said: "What does it mean if it rains? Anyway, I often fall into the river!"
"What nonsense are you talking about? Let's go!"
As she said that, she pulled Ning Caichen towards the waterside pavilion.
Ning Caichen said with a worried look: "Xiao Qian, you are in danger now, that bearded man is a murderer!"
"Come in and take shelter from the rain first!" Xiaoqian just pulled Ning Caichen to the small pavilion.
"I just came here to tell you, to be careful!"
At this time, the pavilion also leaked. Ning Caichen took off his coat to protect him and Xiaoqian from the rain, and the two sat close to each other.
When Xiaoqian heard that he came back to save her, her eyes immediately became crazy when she looked at him.
He looked at Xiaoqian, their eyes met, and they already understood each other's thoughts.
"I still miss you so much. By the way, why did the man selling the painting say that the person in the painting has been dead for a long time!" It turned out that he hadn't listened carefully to what the man said before, but he just didn't believe it.
Xiaoqian leaned into his arms and said softly: "Don't ask these questions at this time!"
She took Ning Caichen's hand and put it on her chest: "You forgot, I will be leaving in two days!"
The heavy rain outside can wash away his breath and prevent grandma from smelling it.
In the waterside pavilion, a pair of infatuated men and women were kissing each other passionately.
The scenes of the previous encounter between the two were replayed and flashed back.
He hugged her and kissed her. The broken hair on his forehead hung softly on both sides, giving her the appearance of a young man.
Once the golden wind and jade dew meet, they will defeat countless people in the world, that's probably it.
The passionate female ghost did not ring the bell at her feet because love was already growing secretly in her heart.
The wind and rain stopped, and the two of them were in a warm relationship, but the white gauze danced with the wind, but his hand held her ankle, and his lips were pressed very gently, as if kissing a rose.
But the silly scholar touched her bell again, but he didn't know it was a fatal bell. Xiaoqian wanted to take the bell away, but he mistakenly thought it was Xiaoqian playing with him, and said: "The sound is nice!
"
Xiaoqian took the bell away, but it was already too late. Seeing that her grandma was about to fly over, she quickly urged him to leave quickly, but he still persisted.
Xiaoqian had no choice but to tell the truth: "I'll tell you the truth, I'm not a human being!"
It's just that the stupid scholar didn't hear the true meaning of her words at all, and still expressed that he was responsible for what happened before.
This made Xiaoqian feel helpless and anxious. She knew that once her grandma came over, everything would be over.
She asked Ning Caichen to find the bearded Yan Chixia.
Ning Caichen was suspicious: "He is a murderer. You asked me to find him? Aren't you going to die?"
"You will die faster if you follow me!" Xiaoqian said angrily.
She stopped explaining to him and ran away quickly, but Ning Caichen was chasing after her.
"Xiaoqian, don't leave!" Ning Caichen still persisted.
Xiaoqian had no choice but to throw him down: "Don't follow me!"
Then he flew away, and the next moment Ning Caichen found that Xiaoqian was missing, so he had to leave.
However, he suddenly saw the back of a woman. He thought it was Xiaoqian, so he quickly stepped forward and shouted: "Xiaoqian!"
That was not Xiaoqian, but another female ghost, Xiaoqing.
Although Xiaoqing and Xiaoqian are both female ghosts, Xiaoqing immediately turned into a fierce ghost when she saw Ning Caichen and wanted to take his life.
Xiaoqian arrived in time and knocked her away with a palm.
Yan Chixia also arrived at this time and chopped off Xiaoqing's head with a sword.
This frightened Ning Caichen even more, and he became more and more convinced that the bearded man was a murderer.
But they didn't see that the headless Xiao Qing could still fight Yan Chixia.
Xiao Qing was no match for Yan Chixia and wanted to escape. Yan Chixia bit her fingertips and drew the Eight Diagrams on her palms with blood: "The world is infinite, the universe is borrowed from the law!"
Then he hit Xiaoqing, a bright light flashed, and a huge gossip flew out, immediately beating the female ghost Xiaoqing into ashes!
Of course, the original version was a movie made in the 1980s, and the special effects were indeed lackluster. However, in Li Yi's case, the special effects are naturally much better.
At the same time, Xiaoqian found Ning Caichen, and Ning Caichen said in horror: "Xiaoqian, that bearded guy killed your sister! Let's go report it to the official!"
At this time, this silly boy didn't know who Yan Chixia was, or that Xiaoqing was a female ghost.
He got on the horse, took Xiaoqian's hand and got on the horse together, wanting to take Xiaoqian away from Lanruo Temple.
But Xiaoqian knew that she could not leave here.
She took out the painting, put it in the scholar's book frame, and drifted away.
By the time Ning Caichen discovered that Xiaoqian was missing, there was no trace of her!
Only the silly scholar was left spinning: "Why is Xiaoqian missing?"
He rode his horse to the Guobei County Government Office. In the lobby of the county office, there was a plaque reading "The Mirror Hangs High".
Ning Caichen banged the Dengwen drum at the gate of the county government office, and the government officials heard the sound and came with fire.
What's ironic is that one of the government officials said: "Someone reported the crime and got paid again!"
When the county magistrate came out, the first thing he asked was: "Have you collected the money?"
By chance, he came to sit under the plaque that read "Mirror Hanging High".
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! It can be seen that this world has completely collapsed long ago!
Because Ning Caichen did not give him any money and asked him to go to court in the middle of the night, the county magistrate directly ordered that thirty big boards be played first.
The master even shouted directly, "Double, sixty big boards!"
Ning Caichen knelt down and begged for mercy: "Sir, you must not hit me. If you hit me, I will forget everything!"
The confused magistrate still asked the master: "Have you given it before?"
"How can I give it if I don't fight?"
"Hurry up and hit me!" The county magistrate pointed out his hand, but his voice was majestic!
"Sir, I just discovered the murderer Liu Yidao!" Ning Caichen said quickly.
The county magistrate didn't know who Liu Yidao was, but the master told him that he was a felon with a reward of two thousand taels.
But they caught me three hours ago!
"Bold, I've been greedy enough, how dare you come here to me? Do you want to tear down my sign and defraud me of my bounty? I'll beat your head and make you dizzy!" This dialect-speaking man said
The county magistrate actually openly said that he was greedy enough.
It makes people feel the darkness and depression of the world in the movie.
This is almost a post-apocalyptic wasteland with an ancient costume background. Monsters are rampant, the government is corrupted, the people advocate bravery and fighting, and ethics and morals are basically collapsed.
Ning Caichen could only repeat that he really saw Liu Yidao.
But the county magistrate also asked him, who is that person in the prison?
What's interesting, or ironic, is that the magistrate talks like he's singing in an opera, but what he does is ridiculous and like a joke.
Ning Caichen said that they arrested the wrong person. At this time, the master told the county magistrate that they often arrested the wrong person.
But the county magistrate said that if he was caught wrongly, there would be no money, so he still let the government officials beat him.
At this moment, Yan Chixia, the murderer in Ning Caichen's eyes, appeared, shouting to save someone from the stick!
But Ning Caichen shouted, "Liu Yidao is here!"
The government officials and the county magistrate were immediately scared to death. They didn't have the power they had before. They were just bullying the weak and fearing the strong.
"Hero, spare your life, I am a moneyless person!" The county magistrate and the master were frightened and hid under the table.
As a result, Yan Chixia was not Liu Yidao at all, but had the identity of a head catcher.
Master Zhao revealed Yan Chixia's identity: "Captain Yan is a notorious judge in the twenty-six provinces of the famous town!"
"He hated corrupt officials the most, so he withdrew from the world. Master Yan, aren't you here to catch corrupt officials today?"
Yan Chixia replied: "I don't care about officialdom matters, I'm here to see my little brother!"
But the stupid scholar still regarded him as a murderer. After all, when he killed the female ghost Xiaoqing, it was with one knife and one head.
"Don't believe him, I'm not his little brother!"
At this time, the real prisoner Liu Yidao was brought over, and he was indeed a wanted criminal.
Ning Caichen didn't know what happened, but he saw Yan Chixia murder someone with his own eyes, so he had no choice but to seek help from the county magistrate.
But the county magistrate said: "This case is too complicated. If we continue the trial, the price will be tripled!"
God knows why the complexity of the case has anything to do with adding money, but Ning Caichen suddenly said: "Okay!"
"Where is the murderer?" the county magistrate asked.
"He!" Ning Caichen pointed at Yan Chixia and said.
"I didn't kill anyone, no one was killed in this case!" Yan Chixia said righteously.
The county magistrate is just a confused official who only cares about money, but how can he judge Yan Chixia?
So he threw it directly to Master Zhao.
Master Zhao said directly: "No one was killed in this case. Even if there is no murder, the master's energy will be consumed a little. It is appropriate to increase the money!"
"Just give me money if you are wise enough!" the county magistrate, who was desperate for money, said again.
"I really need money!"
"But what should I do if I don't have money?"
"You can steal or rob!"
The so-called insiders look at the door, while laymen look at the excitement.
Although film critics say that film quality is mixed these days, at least their perspective is different from that of ordinary viewers.
Perhaps to ordinary viewers, this county government scene is funny.
But in their eyes, this scene is very interesting.
The county magistrate spoke in dialect and with a theatrical tone, opening and closing his mouth to ask for money. This way of expression is actually very interesting.
For example, the conversation between the county magistrate and the master was very commonly used in Peking Opera: "Seriously?" "Seriously!" "As expected?" "As expected!"
In fact, what everyone is most familiar with is the most iconic tone of the black-faced Mr. Bao.
So it is very ironic to put it here. He is obviously a corrupt official, but he insists on learning the tone of Bao Qingtian who is upright and fair.
But in order to get money, the latter actually asked people to steal or rob. It can be seen that in this world, there are no "rules" anymore.
Under the imagination of the film critics, it has become a satire on the money worship of this era, laughing at the poor but not at prostitution!
When Ning Caichen revealed that the scene of the crime was at Lanruo Temple, even the county magistrate who was demanding money was so frightened that he immediately stopped asking for money.
Yan Chixia told Ning Caichen: "The person who died tonight was not a human being!"
But Ning Caichen said: "I saw you chop off that woman's head with my own eyes!"
"It's not a woman, it's a female ghost!" Yan Chixia grabbed Ning Caichen's arm and said.
In fact, at this moment, Ning Caichen also had thoughts in his mind, but he still didn't want to believe it, because if that woman was not a human but a female ghost, then wouldn't it mean that Xiaoqian was also a female ghost!
This is the fact he doesn't want to believe!
But he still argued: "I know that woman. Her family lives behind Lanruo Temple."
"No one lives in Lanruo Temple at all, and there are mass graves behind it!" Yan Chixia ruthlessly revealed the truth.
"Over the years, the situation has been uncertain, and all the people in the temple have disappeared. Except for the wandering ghosts, all the rest are lonely graves!"
At this moment, Ning Caichen finally panicked. In fact, Xiaoqian had already told him, and the painting seller had also told him, but he kept pretending not to believe it.
"You don't believe it? Then I will take you to see the ghost!"
Yan Chixia took Ning Caichen back to Lanruo Temple and took him to the mass grave behind Lanruo Temple.
Ning Caichen saw the tombstone that was almost swaying, especially when Yan Chixia pointed to one of the tombstones for him to see.
He saw Nie Xiaoqian's name engraved on the tombstone!
"You believe it now?"
But Ning Caichen couldn't understand: "She is a ghost, why doesn't she kill me?"
Even Yan Chixia is a little confused about this: "I don't understand either, maybe you still have value!"
"What's my value?"
"Only ghosts know this! Ghosts are just like humans, they use each other for profit. Get out of here before it gets dark!"
"how about you?"
"I won't leave. The human world is too complicated, and it's hard to distinguish. Being with ghosts and gods, black and white are clear, but it's simple! I'll stay, you go quickly!" Yan Chixia said, patting a tombstone.
Ning Caichen finally understood the truth. He ran down the mountain, but a scroll fell down.
That was Xiaoqian's painting. He didn't want to pay attention to it, but he couldn't help but look back.
Yan Chixia suddenly said: "I've thought about it, you'd better stay!"
"Those female ghosts who stay here will harm me!" Ning Caichen said.
"I just want to use you to lure those female ghosts out, and I want to eradicate them completely! If you stay, she will look for you!" Yan Chixia said, taking out a bell and handing it to Ning Caichen.
"When the time comes, just ring this bell and I will come out to save you!"
"You want to use me to kill Xiaoqian?"
"Yes, they have been very dissatisfied with me recently! They can't tolerate me for much longer. This monster has a lot of magic power. I don't know if it can do justice for heaven." Yan Chixia said.
"Have you been able to deal with them?"
"Don't worry, evil will never defeat good!" Yan Chixia said loudly and authentically.
