Attack Jade (攻玉) - Chapter 23
[Chapter 18 (1)]
Teng Yuyi was full of doubts, picked up a spell and tried it again, this time no matter how she fiddled with it, the rune paper did not respond.
She was about to get up to find out when Calyx led the two girls in.
“Gongzi immortal figures, the slave family does not dare to call those vulgar fans to serve.” These two are the most good silk bamboo musicians in our Cai Feng Lou, one is called The Scroll Pear, the other is called The Baozhu, the Curly Pear is good at the flute, the Baozhu is good at plucking the piano, they have always been selling art and not selling themselves, the slave family called them to come, one is to give the Gongzi warm wine, and the other is to offer music to the Gongzi.
Curly Pear and Baozhu replied shyly, “I have seen Gongzi.”
Teng Yuyi looked at the past, Calyx Would pick people, the two young girls were about fourteen or fifteen years old, both were born beautiful and delicate, and the one on the left called Curly Pear still had some Hu people’s blood.
Calyx smiled, “If they can barely get into the eyes of the Gongzi, the slave family will let them stay and serve the Gongzi.”
Teng Yuyi said, “Just now there was a man wearing a white shirt on the outside, almost thirty years old, about this tall, with a bowl of peony flowers pinned to his sideburns.” Has this man been here before, do you know where he came from?
Calyx Ji looked outside and turned back, “Gongzi should not have read it wrong, who is in the corridor?” However, our Cai Feng Lou has guests every night, and the kind of Lang Jun that Gongzi said can be seen everywhere.
“I see that the man with the two little ladies went to the end of the corridor, and there were still many boxes in it?”
Calyx blinked blankly, “There are only two rooms further inside, and I heard that tonight we have all been booked in advance by your guests.”
Teng Yuyi pointed at the two young girls, “Leave them behind, and you will inquire about the Lang Jun I said.”
Calyx’s face shines, she is one of the false mothers in this building (Note 1), the roll pear and the holding beads are all musicians she personally trained, because she is still innocent, quite a bit of the meaning of waiting for the price, just to give people warm wine to play, the price is already expensive.
Guests always spend high prices to invite them to accompany, helpless can only see can not eat, sometimes encountered the rush of the samurai drunkards, inevitably caused some chaos. Tonight I can stay here to serve this woman pretending to be a Hu person, and she who is a fake mother can also follow her, so she laughed and said, “The slave family will go to inquire about it.”
Before
leaving, he whispered to Curly Pear and Baozhu: “This prince is decent and Sven, you give me a good life to serve.” Roll pears
and hugging beads are busy.
Teng Yuyi waited for a while, did not see Huo Qiu turn around, and then ordered the second daughter to pour wine.
“How long have you been here?” She said to Yan Yue.
Curly Pear is very quiet, almost never said anything since entering the house, but the beads are very lively: “The slave family was bought by the mother at the age of seven, and these years have been practicing silk bamboo under the guidance of the mother.” Half a year ago, the Caifeng Building opened, and the mother brought the slave family to perform. ”
Oh?” Teng Yuyi put the wine cup on his lips and sipped it, “Cai Feng Lou only opened half a year ago?” “Yes
.” BaoZhu added, “Gongzi should not come to Pingkangfang very often, so he doesn’t know.” This building was originally a color shop, the boss couple died of an acute illness the year before, this shop was vacant for half a year, was plated by a giant from Luoyang, decorated inside and out for several months, officially renamed Cai Feng Lou. Teng Yuyi looked
around: “This place is quiet, it is difficult to empty, it is expected that there are many people in this port rushing to get it, why did it take half a year to go out?”
Baozhu and Curly Pear glanced at each other, shook their heads, and said, “I think I want a lot of silver money to come down, at that time, only the Luoyang merchant Jia could afford it.” Teng Yuyi’s
lips overflowed with laughter, I’m afraid that even they themselves didn’t believe this, Chang’an in addition to the country’s giants, there are also a large number of rich hu merchants, Pingkang Fang Nanqu suddenly has such a large shop vacant, how can it be that no one cares for half a year? There must be a reason for this.
“You don’t say I know, this place isn’t ‘clean,’ are you?”
Erji Qiang smiled: “The slave family does not know what the prince means, Cai Feng Lou sings and dances every day, cleaning is particularly attentive, why not clean?” The wine also needs to be accompanied by silk and bamboo, and the slave family will play a song “Spring Warbler” to help the prince, and this song is still quite familiar to the slave family, which is quite pleasant to the eyes and ears.
Teng Yuyi sank his face, “I don’t listen to Gui Zi Le.”
“Then, the slave family re-played ‘Sauvignon Blanc.'”
“I don’t want to hear it.”
Baozhu’s eyes fluttered, and she said with disgust: “Gongzi is so difficult to serve, isn’t he disgusted with the slave family’s craftsmanship?”
Teng Yuyi waved at The Hug Zhu: “Come closer, I’ll tell you.”
Baozhu didn’t know what to mean, so she had to lean closer, and Teng Yuyi suddenly grabbed Baozhu’s arm and rolled her sleeve up.
The second daughter was startled, Teng Yuyi frowned darkly, this Leling forearm was still quite smooth, the more it went up, the more scarred it became, and when it reached the shoulder, the newly added bruise marks were simply shocking.
Bao Zhu shivered, “What does Gongzi mean?”
Teng Yuyi let go of her arm, there was no need to look, and the same was true of the curly pear.
“Don’t you get beaten up on weekdays?”
After all, the two were young, and the floating color on their faces when they heard this was gone, and a sad look appeared.
BaoZhu said darkly, “Since Gongzi already knew, don’t be a slave anymore, if you don’t serve well tonight, Lady Calyx will punish me and Curly Pear again.”
Teng Yuyi smiled: “Well, how about we make a deal?” Tell me everything you know, and I will not embarrass you for half a year. The
second daughter looked at Teng Yuyi in amazement, not to mention whether this was true or not, they had seen so many guests in the CaiFeng Building, and this prince was the first to ask about the dark wounds on their bodies.
“Don’t you believe it?”
“How can the slaves not believe?” BaoZhu said compassionately, “It’s just that the slave family is here to live, and they don’t dare to talk nonsense, in case it affects the reputation of Cai Feng Lou, the master family and the mother will definitely beat us hard.”
Curly Pear also said, “Ask the prince for mercy, don’t ask any more questions.” Gongzi such a delicate heart and liver, presumably also know that the slave family’s fate is like grass and mustard.
Teng Yuyi sighed, “But what if someone already knows that there is something wrong with Cai Feng Lou?” The
second daughter froze.
“Look who’s downstairs.”
Teng Yuyi pointed out the window, and the curly pear and the hugging bead looked down, and in the bustling crowd downstairs, two small Daoist priests with round heads and round brains suddenly appeared.
Most of the streets are young men and women in dazzling clothes, but these two little Taoists are dressed in clothes and shoes, like two weeds falling into a pot of colorful meat soup, making it difficult for people not to pay attention.
The little Daoist priest came to the front of the Cai Feng Building, and the big one went inside.
Sure enough, they were stopped and insisted on breaking in, but the temple visitor refused to let them go.
Teng Yuyi looked at Huo Qiu upstairs, Huo Qiu nodded, looked at the opportunity to catch up, stopped the Absolute Saint and Ren Zhi, and whispered something to them, the little Daoist priest was confused, and looked up upstairs.
Teng Yuyi smiled at the downstairs, but his mouth said to Erji, “How can a Daoist priest appear in Liu Mo in the flower street, this block downstairs will definitely reach the ears of your lord’s family.” As long as your lord’s family is not stupid, you must have guessed that someone had already spread the word about this matter. Tell me at this time that the Lord and the false mother will never be pregnantSuspicion is on you, and I promise that as long as I am happy, I have a way to make the false mother dare not scold you again. It’s a very good deal, so think about it.
Roll Pear and Baozhu looked a little loose, Teng Yuyi took a sip of wine, looked up at the door, Calyx Ji went out to inquire about the man’s origin, why he had not seen it for so long.
She touched the beard at the side of her mouth, stood up, and said, “I’ll go out and walk around and come back to listen to you.” Looking
to the left at the door, the corridor was empty.
There is a compartment on each side of the corridor, and the doors are closed. The warblers in the compartment are whispering, as if they are drinking and having fun.
Teng Yuyi recalled the strange scene of the rune paper burning, it was not easy to rush to check it out, and after standing for a while, he was going back to the room and saw Calyx Ji coming up the stairs.
“Why doesn’t the prince listen to music in the room?” Calyx wiped her sweat with a veil, “But are the roll pears and the beads not well served?” The prince was not annoyed, and the slave family went in to teach them a lesson.
Teng Yuyi said, “Hey, they’re not busy, they’re serving very well, I just asked you to inquire about the man, why did it take so long to return?” Calyx Pointed to the end of the corridor: “The
slave family has found two compartments, did not see the Lang Jun said by the prince, went downstairs to ask for a circle, tonight there are many men with flowers and jade, but either the color of the clothes is not right, or the age does not match.” Isn’t Gongzi mistaken?
Teng Yuyi looked at the end of the corridor, it was definitely not his mistake, but how could a good person disappear out of thin air?
Unfortunately, at that time, I did not pay attention to the two little ladies around the man, if I remembered the appearance, I would know if it was The Leling in the building when I asked Calyx.
Alas, when the horizontal and the holy and the forsaken wisdom have come, there must be evil spirits, and they will deal with them.
She estimated that Huo Qiu had already made arrangements downstairs, so she said to Calyx, “There is some stuffiness in the room, I want to take the roll pear and the hug beads to the street to take a look around, and say hello to you first.”
Calyx Ji blinked, Chang’an has always had the old practice of traveling with prostitutes, either accompanying the liquor order, or helping the chant against, no matter how long as you give enough money for a few days.
But after all, the roll pear and the hugging beads have not officially accompanied the guests, if they can’t see it when they go out…
She smiled dryly: “This room is facing the street and the moon, and the scenery and appreciation are all a must, why should the prince give up the near and seek far– ”
Teng Yuyi took out a bead from the sachet: “I have a strange temper, I don’t like to hide in the room when listening to music, if you are willing to agree, this thing belongs to you.” Calyx’s
eyes were straight, it was a colorful bead, and she had seen a lot of treasures in all directions, but she had never seen such a brilliant gem of color.
Teng Yuyi smiled and threw the beads to Calyx. This is five or six years ago when she was still in Yangzhou, from a big food merchant to buy colorful glass beads, that Hu people just came to understand the market, a bag only sold for twenty taels, just happened to be bumped into, she bought two packs in one go.
Later, the merchant knew that this thing was rare in the original, and his intestines were green with regret, and the only dozen or so left were now sold for ten thousand dollars.
Calyx Collected the Beads and smiled like a flower: “The slave family calls the roll pear and the holding beads out, but they rarely go out in the past, and the prince should not take them too far.”
Teng Yuyi took the roll pear and hugged the pearl downstairs, and when he came out, he deliberately looked back, and as expected, he was followed by two sneaky strong men, thinking that It was Calyx Ji who had sent them to monitor them.
Huo Qiu greeted him and said, “Gongzi, the little man stopped the two Dao Chiefs, and they are now next to the car, but they seem to be in a hurry to go, and they are a little impatient.”
“Got it.” Teng Yuyi said, “There are two tails in the back, you want to find a way to lead them elsewhere, don’t let him see me and the two Dao Chiefs.”
Huo Qiu answered and disposed of himself.
Teng Yuyi waited for a while after leaving the building, looked back to find that the two strong men were gone, and took the second daughter to the back of his calf car, and saw the absolute saint and the abandoned wisdom pout standing next to the car, the light and shadow of the lantern shining on their fat cheeks, like two hairy peaches.
“Two governors, don’t come unharmed.”
Absolute Saint and Ren Zhi were stunned, although Huo Qiu had already told them that this bearded man was teng Yuyi in disguise, and it still felt funny at close inspection.
The two of them stretched their faces and said, “Teng—”
“The contemptible surname is Wang.” Teng Yuyi laughed and interrupted the two.
Knowing that she was deliberately concealing her identity, Absolute Saint and Ren Zhi immediately changed her mouth: “Prince, why did you stop us here?”
Teng Yuyi turned his head to The Roll Pear and Hugging Pearl, “And wait in the calf cart.” He
said, leading the Absolute Saint and renunciation of wisdom aside, “I came to relieve the spell according to the guidance of the two Dao Chiefs, where are you now?” The
Absolute Saint touched the back of his head, “Master Brother asked us to come first and stay in the temple to clean up the mess, but we have all been here for half an hour, and we have not seen him.” As
he spoke, he tiptoed and looked into the crowd.
Picking up the pieces? Teng Yuyi remembered what his aunt had said.
“No wonder my uncle went to QingyunGuan in the morning to find your brother, Guiguan is closing the door, what’ the matter?”
The Absolute Saint and the Forsaken Look at each other.
Yesterday at noon, the master brother and the high man joined forces to lure the soul of the Duchess of AnGuo back, and as soon as the “Xuanmu Gate” was opened, it attracted a number of powerful ghosts.
The master brother deliberately trained them, handing them the job of expelling the powerful ghosts, while he continued to stay in front of the well to attract the souls.
Although they also followed the master brother to get rid of a number of ghosts, but it was the first time to deal with the ghost alone, just to deal with the angry little ghost, there were many mistakes, and at the end, the master brother could not see it, and threw a spell to help them collect the ghost.
In this way, while exorcising ghosts, while summoning spirits, in the middle of the night, the master brother finally brought back the soul of The Duchess of Anguo, but unfortunately it was too long away from the body, even if the soul returned to the flesh, the Duchess of Anguo still had no sign of waking up.
The master brother closed the door of Xuanmu and went back to the room to think with the high man, they took the opportunity to go inside to see who the high man really was, but they were urged by the master brother to go to sleep.
By the time they rushed to the scripture hall in the morning, the tall man had already left, and The Duchess of An Guo was still not awake, but fortunately her spirit was much calmer.
In the afternoon, the master brother called two old Daoist monks who were proficient in the Minglu Tantric Technique to pick up and let them recite the An Lu Mantra to The Duchess of An Guo every day from now on, but whether they could wake up or not would ultimately depend on the creation of the Duchess an Guo herself.
When they entered the compartment, An Guo Gong was talking to his brother, An Guo Gong was emaciated and old, and said to his brother in a dumb voice: “Last night, I was tired of being holy-”
, I caught a glimpse of the two of them, An Guo Gong swallowed the words back, and the brother turned his head to look at them, and said casually: “You have come just right, I let them prepare dinner earlier, After the two of you had eaten, you left for PingkangFang. ”
“What about you, Brother Master? ”
You go first, I’ll be there later.”
But they had all been in Pingkang Fang for more than half an hour, and they still didn’t see the figure of their brother.
Thinking of this, Zhi Zhi apologetically said to Teng Yuyi: “It is estimated that when Dr. Du came, Guan Li was busy inducing the soul of The Duchess of Anguo, and tomorrow Guan Li would open the door as usual, and he could only bother Dr. Du to run again tomorrow.” Teng Yuyi
said busily, “I will tell my uncle when I go back.” He
smiled and said, “Since you want to go to the Cai Feng Building to get rid of it, can you find out what really happened in this building?” Absolute
Saint and Ren Zhi frowned a little, they only knew that the Cai Feng Lou had appeared in the demon for a month, but they didn’t know what kind of demon it was.
After coming just now, don’t say inquire, even the gate of cai feng lou did not enter, but instead asked the merchants near the left, but these people thought that they were afraid of offending the main family of cai feng lou, and they did not even dare to say a word of truth.
Teng Yuyi smiled slightly: “If someone is willing to tell everything that happened in Cai Feng Lou during this time, do you want to hear it?” The
two of them were invigorated: “What did Lady Teng hear?”
“Cai Feng was silent upstairs and downstairs, and it took me a lot of work to talk about it.”
Without waiting for the two of them to open their mouths, Teng Yuyi added: “In addition, I also encountered strange things in the building, I can tell you the appearance of that person, but you have to agree to a request from me.” The
two looked at Teng Yuyi defensively: “What, what requirements?”
“You’ll have to convince your brother to help me untie the Ring of Fire.”
Absolute Saint was very embarrassed: “It is not a secret, yesterday we returned to the temple, the master brother scolded us fiercely, saying that the poisonous insect is not a good thing, Teng Niangzi cheated the poisonous insect for no reason, must not have good intentions, but the master brother also said, as long as Teng Niangzi is willing to say what you want to do with the worm, and take the initiative to return the itch worm back to the view, he will untie the ring for you.” Teng Yuyi’s
eyes rippled, the requirements were really much, she was tickling the worms just to deal with Duan Ningyuan and Dong Erniang, now that things have not yet been accomplished, how can they leak out in advance? Moreover, she had already handed over the itch worm to Cheng Bo to run errands, and now she had no worms at hand, and what she took was returned to Lin Chengyou.
However, she came out today, made up her mind to understand the spell, Lin Chengyou was in trouble over there, wasn’t there still absolute holiness and abandonment of wisdom, both the spells of the Qingyun Temple, I wanted to come to these two little Daoists can also solve it, so she pretended to sigh sheepishly: “This sword is extremely valuable to me, if I can’t untie the Spirit Ring tonight, I’m afraid I’m going to be seriously ill myself, the two Trail Elders are kind, it’s better to help me untie the Spirit Ring tonight, Tomorrow I will return the tickle to Qingyun Guan.
Absolute Saint and Ren zhi scratched their heads, which at first glance seemed to be no problem, but if you think about it carefully, if you had lifted the spell in advance, would Lady Teng really return the itch worm? Moreover, if you are not ashamed, why does Lady Teng refuse to say the use of her itching insects.
It shouldn’t really be a bad person, but the sadness on Lady Teng’s face doesn’t look like it’s pretending…
Ren zhi was more likely to be soft-hearted than the Absolute Saint, and after struggling for half a moment, he couldn’t help asking, “Lady Teng, are you tickling worms to do bad things?”
“Of course not, do I look like a bad guy?”
Ren Zhi and Absolute Saint glanced at each other and sighed, “Well, neither I nor Absolute Saint will untie the Spirit Ring, but there is a way to make Master Brother help you solve the spell, Lady Teng, and you will come with your ears.”
Ren Zhi said a few words in Teng Yuyi’s ear, and finally said, “This is the best method we can think of, if Lady Teng did it according to her words, Master Brother might be able to lift the spell on the spot.” Teng Yu
deliberated in his heart, so as to set out something useful, this method is simpler and more feasible than he thought, but he didn’t know if he could impress Lin Chengyou.
“Mother, this time you can tell us about the building.”
Teng Yuyi took out the rune paper sent to her by the Five Dao of Dongmingguan and told her what had just happened.
Ren Zhi thought for a moment and said, “These five Daoist monks in dongmingguan have always regarded themselves as beautiful men, and it is not strange to call this symbol the Five Beautiful Heavenly Immortal Runes, but to put it bluntly, this thing is a yin finger symbol that can recognize demons and ghosts.” The man you saw just now is mostly a demon, a holy one, since Lady Teng brought out the Leling in the building, you stayed to listen to what they said, and I went to the building to investigate.
Teng Yuyi stopped Ren Zhi: “Qi, don’t worry, the Dao Commander is dressed up in the past, and the hard break will only be stopped again, it is better to change clothes and let Huo Qiu send someone to take you in.” Also, if that demon is not easy to deal with, are you not afraid of danger when you go alone, just now you said that Lin Chengyou is coming soon, why not wait for your master and brother to join you?
Ren Zhi and Absolute Saint looked at Teng Yuyi gratefully, knowing that Teng Niangzi would not be a bad person, and see how much she cared about them.
“Brother Master said that we are also old, and we can’t always let him take us to get rid of us, and maybe he has already come, but he just deliberately doesn’t show his face.” Since the evil spirit had appeared, the poor dao went ahead to explore the way. Jedi
Sheng took out an arrow-like object and handed it to Ren Zhi: “In case you can’t cope with it, remember to release the arrow in time.” Abandoning
Wisdom nodded and went.
Huo Qiu’s hands and feet were sharp, and he quickly bought clothes and took Abandoned Zhi disguised as a little prince who traveled with his father and took him to the building.
Not long after, Huo Qiu came out of the CaiFeng Building and returned to guard outside the calf car, Teng Yuyi was just about to lower the curtain, but unexpectedly glimpsed a green-haired Andi Daoist in the crowd.
In his hand, this man held up a tall yellow banner with the words: Yin and Yang, Omniscient.
The old man walked to a ginkgo tree on the side of the street, sat down lazily, threw the hat belt that had fallen on his shoulder back, and lengthened his voice: “Good and evil are bad and bad, each has a curse; Ask about the future, and take the silver money.
This person is different from the Orthodox Daoist priest who fasts and fasts, he is obviously a Fortune Teller and Divination Yunyou Daoist, the Absolute Saint secretly skimming his lips, this kind of person he has seen a lot, in the name of a Taoist, but what he does is a pit and a deception, it is best not to let them find out that this Daoist priest is doing bad things, otherwise – hum.
Teng Yuyi was about to retract his gaze, but the old Daoist priest glanced coldly in the direction of the calf car, and there seemed to be a smile in his eyes, and his expression was not strange.
Teng Yuyi looked at Lao Dao strangely, lowered the curtain, and said to The Scroll Pear and The Holding Pearl: “Now I can say, what strange things happened in the building?”
Curly Pear and Baozhu said uneasily, “Actually, the slaves don’t know much.” “It
doesn’t matter, you can say whatever you know.”
Baozhu looked out the window in fear: “The slave family heard several false mothers say that the predecessor of the Cai Feng Lou, that is, the shopkeeper and his wife of the Cai Feng Lou, died as if something was not quite right, and this place has not been peaceful since their death.” Absolute
Saint was astonished: “If you think that the shopkeeper and his wife have died wrong, why don’t you report it to the officials?” “The
guys in the shop have reported to the officials, but on the night the shopkeeper died, there happened to be a few medical officers helping to administer the needles.” The medical officers have been helping the shopkeeper to diagnose the disease for some time, and the cause of death is not suspicious. As for the shopkeeper’s wife, she hanged herself on the third day after the shopkeeper’s death. Before his death, he not only left a letter, but also distributed valuable jewelry to the temples, which were famous ancient temples in Chang’an City and could never be related to the death of the shopkeeper’s wifeSo although Fa Cao of Wannian County came to see it, there was no follow-up. “If that’s
the case, why do you say they died something wrong?”
Different from ordinary untouchable women, Curly Pear and Baozhu have been forced to learn words and skills since childhood, and their words are well worded and their speech is clear.
Bao Zhuser shrank a little, hardened his scalp, and said, “I heard from the false mother that the Cai Shu Xing has always only entered expensive silk, as long as it is a famous prostitute in Nanqu, most of them have patronized the Cai Shu Hang.” The shopkeeper is forty years old, physically stronger than ordinary people, originally poor and helpless, starting from his wife’s dowry that year, although these years have developed, he still can’t change the problem of fearing his wife.
“The couple has been married for fourteen years, the lady has nothing to say, the shopkeeper is good at talking, and finally said that the lady agreed to take a concubine, not long before the illness, he just bought a beautiful concubine from Yuezhou, the lady obeyed on the face, often scolded the beautiful concubine behind her back, once the shopkeeper took the guys in the shop to the foreign port to buy goods, the lady intensified the torture of the concubine, the concubine could not bear the humiliation, secretly jumped into the well and died. On the day of his death, the shopkeeper just came back from out of town, and when he heard the news of the concubine’s death, the shopkeeper fainted in anger and attacked, and when he woke up, he began to have a headache, saying that he saw the beautiful concubine wandering in the courtyard, and he was so frightened that he could not sleep peacefully all night.
The shopkeeper’s wife was temperamental, and immediately rushed to the courtyard to scold, saying that the’s fox was charming and harmful before she died, and after her death, she dared to make waves, because the scolding was too loud, and many people in the vicinity heard it. Soon after, the shopkeeper’s wife went to the nearby Qingguo Temple and asked for a charm to be pasted in the courtyard, and then it was too peaceful, but the shopkeeper’s illness was good and bad, and he invited many medical officers to see it, and they all said that it was the head wind. After being so sick for a few months, one day it finally stopped working.
“The death of the shopkeeper’s wife is even more strange, and almost all the qualified false mothers in Pingkang Fang have dealt with this lady, saying that her people are miserly and miserly, and even if they die, they will bring the goods into the coffin, because they are too thin, the shopkeeper’s wife has long since cut off contact with three relatives and six people.” She hanged herself, how willing to give jewelry to the temple. The most frightening thing was the letter she wrote before she died…”
Teng Yuyi asked busily, “What is written on the letter?” Baozhu became
more and more frightened, and looked at the curly pear like a helper, and the curly pear shivered and stammered:
“That letter is densely written with the same sentence: I am a dog, not worthy of life; I’m a dog, I don’t deserve to live…”
There seemed to be a cold wind blowing in the car, Teng Yuyi thought that he was not timid, and his back still couldn’t help but feel cold.
Absolute Saint cleared his throat and said, “I heard that going to take revenge like a ghost has made the blindfold method confuse the shopkeeper’s wife, first tempting him to write a book of sin, and then making him hang himself, arguing that such an evil thing has not yet become a climate, or exceeding or accepting, it will not be chaotic for a long time, and later did anyone in this place to do the fa?”
“Fa Cao checked for a while, determined that the shopkeeper and his wife were not victimized by outsiders, and then closed the case.” Because the shopkeeper and his wife had no heirs, the officials had to hang up the shop to sell. But since then, there has always been a strange noise in the building, and the neighbors around them have listened to it and are afraid, so they have paid the big monk of Qingguo Temple to come and see, and the big monk said that there are indeed some grievances in the store, and it is good to do a few rituals. In those days after doing the ritual, I heard that the shop was quiet a lot, but every time someone came to see the shop, they would see something unclean in the building, and after half a year, the shop was never able to go out.
Teng Yuyi said, “Why is this new shopkeeper from Luoyang willing to lay down the shop?”
Baozhu looked at the rolling pear and asked, “Didn’t you hear what the fake mother said that day?” Curly Pear thought about the situation that day and reopened the cavity: “On
the day the new shopkeeper came, he found a very powerful warlock to help him look at it, and the warlock said that the hollow and external protrusion of this place is naturally the trend of the well, such a treasure land is most suitable for the business of the yin people, and the color business of the women in front of it can enter the gold every day, and the new shop will open a brothel, and it will naturally become famous.” Although there are some unclean things in the building, it is not impossible to crack it, just make a lotus net child treasure statue in the backyard, you can be safe.
Teng Yuyi bowed his head: “It seems that your new shopkeeper did as promised, and after the opening of the Cai Feng Lou, the business did grow day by day, and what happened later, did the warlock’s method not work?”
“In fact, strange things have not been broken, but the business is unexpectedly good, our shopkeeper is reluctant to make a large daily income, and secondly, he is afraid that inviting people to do it will affect the sale, so he blindly hides it.”
Speaking of this, the curly pear and the hugging beads are close to each other, and there is some chestnut and fearful mood: “About three months ago, not long after the opening of the Caifeng Building, a guest from Hongzhou came to the store to find fun, drunk and stayed in a lady’s room called Soft Red, when he slept until midnight, the guest heard footsteps outside the door, he thought it was a drunkard, but the footsteps did not go, the guests listened to the upset, and asked the person to roll quickly. But the man outside said: The slave family is soft red, and it is so cold outside, and Lang Jun will quickly let the slave family come in. The
woman’s voice was exactly the same as soft red, the guest believed it to be true, confused and got up, who knew that looking into the bed, soft red wrapped in the cocoon was sleeping soundly, he woke up the wine at once, pushed the soft red to make it wake up, but soft red could not wake up.
“That row of bedrooms is in the northwest corner of the backyard, the surrounding area is already secluded, not to mention it is late at night, the woman knocked on the door vigorously, why did not alarm others? The more the guests thought about it, the more frightened they became, and they scolded: ‘Hurry up! You are not soft red, less pretending to be a ghost here, and then dare to make a mistake, I will definitely call you a false mother to punish you heavily! “The
woman suddenly screamed, ‘There is a ghost in your room, and I am the soft red.'”
The guest was frightened and scattered, did not dare to open the door and did not dare to go to the bed, frozen in the middle of the room, pulling his throat and shouting for help, just at this time, the thing outside began to bang on the door, the guest was frightened, when he woke up, it was already dawn, the temple guests carried him to the bed, the guest looked at the soft red behind the false mother, and almost fainted again.
“Soft red face is very poor, said that she also encountered a strange thing last night, but she and the guest encounter is just the opposite, in the middle of the night to wake up to hear the guest knocking on the door outside, turn around but see the guest lying on the bed, the thing is also said that there is a ghost in the room, screaming for her to open the door.”
Teng Yuyi’s face was self-assured, but his body was cold, and he turned his head to look at the Absolute Saint, who thought about it and said, “The front sounds like a sneaky thing, but the back is not like it.” Aside from this, how many such incidents have happened since the opening of Cai Feng Lou?
BaoZhu said with a white face: “Let alone three or four cases, strange foreign guests are looking for, the guests can’t stay in Chang’an for a few days, take the owner’s compensation and leave, so although those few people are scared, but almost no one in Chang’an knows about this.”
Teng Yuyi touched the back of his cold neck: “This thing is so fierce, in the three months since it opened, has no one been injured or had any accidents?”
Baozhu nodded desperately, “Yes, that’s why the slaves are afraid.” The first two months were fine, but there was a woman who had slept in the room, but when she woke up, she was in the corridor, or in the backyard, she saw a woman in front of her speeding, chasing and shouting twice, and the woman suddenly disappeared.
“But just last month, a fake mother bought a beautiful musician named Ge Jian from out of town, and Ge Jian not only looked good, but also had a poetry and piano rhythm. Because of its popularity, I did the caifenglou duzhi as soon as I came. A few days ago, Ge Jian accompanied Lang Jun out to play, first in the temple to ask for a string of Buddha beads to protect the body, and then went to the water’s edge to pray, accidentally wet clothes, came back with some colds. On the eighteenth day of last month, Ge Jian’s body was unwell and he rested early, and he heard footsteps outside in the middle of the night.
“Ge Towel did not come for a long time, but also heard about the strange things in the building, knew that the thing is often only outside the door, just ignore it, but this time is different, the footsteps paced, actually sneaked into the room, Ge Towel was frightened to open his eyes, was caught fiercely, in the dark heard a middle-aged woman scolding: ‘, dare to seduce my husband!’
“That claw was so heavy that half of Ge’s face was scratched and flesh flew over, she covered her face and wailed, touched the string of Buddha beads and threw them out in a panic, and the woman disappeared.” Ge Jian even shouted for help, the building only heard a noise, Ge Towel’s false mother found a doctor, the medical worker said that Ge Towel’s face was very seriously injured, and his appearance was afraid that it would be difficult to recover. ”
Hug the beadsTalking about this, he sighed miserably.
Teng Yu thought for a moment and suddenly said, “Huh?
Absolute Saint also felt strange and asked Teng Yuyi, “Does the prince think something is wrong?”
Teng Yuyi said, “Listening to this description, it is like the ghost of the shopkeeper’s wife, but it was stopped outside the door before, why can it break into the room this time?” Suddenly the mana went up, or was there something else? And why not look for others, but to find a scarf. The
Absolute Saint frowned and pondered the sentence repeatedly: “‘, dare to seduce my husband!'” ’…… Either this ghost broke through the forbidden seal that suppressed her, or Ge Jian was born like the beautiful concubine that her husband married, she misidentified people, and under the anger, she suddenly broke through the cage. Later, but what happened?
Curly Pear and Baozhu shook their heads at the same time: “These things are enough to scare people into their souls, especially Ge Jian, who has just come to prominence, as long as it takes time, it will definitely become the most prestigious duzhi in Pingkang Fang, but unfortunately, the appearance is ruined, if this time our shopkeeper is still pressed and refuses to say, I don’t know how many people will suffer in the future.” The Nu family guessed that the reason why they could alarm Qingyun Guan this time was that they were afraid, afraid that…”
The two of them sipped their lips, and Teng Yuyi answered: “Afraid of the wind sound released by Ge Jian himself?” Roll
Pear and BaoZhu were silent.
Teng Yuyi said, “In order to suppress this matter, the shopkeeper and the false mother either allowed her money or threatened her with force, but Ge Jian was not willing to be ruined in this way, so he wanted to seek justice for himself.” When did you hear about this, Sir? ”
That day, Master Brother came back from outside to teach us homework, saying that recently someone told him that the Cai Feng Lou in Pingkang Fang might be strange, and when he made some preparations, he would take us around.”
Teng Yuyi was a little surprised, Ge Jian, as a trickster in Cai Feng Lou, was not free to come and go, and after being injured, the shopkeeper was afraid of leaking the wind, especially tightly guarded.
According to her speculation, it was extremely difficult for Ge Jian to deliver a letter to Qingyun Temple, but she did not expect that Ge Jian directly found Lin Chengyou.
Could it be that a certain prince’s son who was good with Ge Jian found out that something was wrong, and the man went to Lin Chengyou and revealed the news.
Absolute Saint looked at Teng Yuyi, the old man felt that something was missing, and suddenly slapped his head: “Yes, I said so many strange things, why didn’t I hear a man of about thirty years old doing this, two women, you can see a strange Lang Jun in the building?”
Curly Pear and Baozhu were stunned: “Since the opening of the Caifeng Building, the slave family has only heard of female ghosts, and has never heard of male ghosts in the building.” AbsoluteLy
Holy Groan, if the man was okay tonight, how could the Five Beauty Heavenly Immortal Charm in Lady Teng’s hand spontaneously combust for no reason?
“The slaves don’t know much, and they may have heard it.” Curly Pear and Baozhu said, “Gongzi, the slave family that should be said has said it.” Teng Yuyi looked
at the color, knowing that they either did not say it, and what they said would be frank: “You get off the car with me, I will take you around, and when I send you back to the building, I will greet Calyx, and in the next six months, she will never dare to be difficult for you anymore.” The
second daughter saw that she did what she said, and she was grateful.
Teng Yuyi’s words turned sharply: “Tonight even the Daoists of qingyun temple have been attracted, if you shopkeepers still want to continue to hide, they will definitely take some measures, if you hear any strange things, be sure to tell me.”
Curly Pear and Baozhu replied, “I don’t know when Gongzi will come back to Cai Feng Lou.” “When
I want to inquire about something, I naturally come to you.”
