Hundred Ghosts

He Huai's back was broad and warm. Lin Zi leaned against his back, feeling a little sad for some reason. This was the last time, and there would be no chance in the future.

There is no need to worry about Lin Zi who can't keep up, his speed is very fast now, Lin Zi only felt the strong wind blowing behind him, he didn't know how long he had been walking, and finally saw the city gate, He Huai put him on a stone Going up, he took a heavy breath, he himself would not feel tired, but his body is a mortal after all, and he couldn't stand too intense exercise.

Lin Zi underestimated the waterlogging situation, even the city gates were covered with water without feet, and the guests guarding the city gates were physically and mentally exhausted, and there were so many refugees coming in and out, they couldn't even see them, so they simply let They all went in and out, so the two of them got in easily.

After entering, everything was easy to talk about, He Huai turned Lin Zi upside down, "You have caught it well, we need to speed up."

"Okay." He Huai said again, "It might be cold when we go up the mountain, why don't you put on my clothes?"

Lin Zi breathed a sigh of relief, and said in a low voice, "No need, it's so cold, you should dress yourself."

"I'm fine, you have to be careful, now is the season of disasters, and the doctors are in a hurry to run for their lives. It's hard to deal with if you're really sick."

"It's okay, let's go quickly."

Thinking that this guy did wear a lot before leaving, He Huai didn't insist any longer, and hurried on his way with a sigh of relief.

Carrying him on his back, he insisted on reaching the entrance of the Taoist temple in one breath. Sure enough, a lot of refugees came to the Taoist temple. Even the eaves of the Taoist temple entrance were full of people, and they fell asleep together. Putting Lin Zi down, he gasped, "Wait a minute, let me rest for a while...I ran faster than a horse tonight, but I'm exhausted."

Lin Zi was startled, and approached him to wipe the sweat off his face, but his sleeves were dripping wet, so he could only whisper, "Thank you."

"It's okay, I'm not too tired, but my body can't hold it," He Huai explained, and then said with a smile, "Why don't you kiss me? Forget it, I'm dripping wet, or don't... "

The warm and soft lips were on his forehead, he didn't know whether it was sweat or rain, his heart suddenly beat violently, his body lost all strength, and he was so soft that he couldn't even breathe.

He kissed me?

Lin Zi was only half an inch away from him, and she could hold him in her arms with her hand. Her slender neck was so fair, her chin was pitifully thin, her lips were pale but so moist...

He is too good-looking, right?

He Huai put his hand on his waist hesitantly, pulled him to sit on his lap, wrapped his waist with one hand, and clasped the back of his neck with the other. Lin Zi was startled by such a domineering action, but he kissed him. The ground is so gentle and cautious, as if a little bit of strength will hurt him.

Can't help it, really can't help it.

He Huai couldn't help but put his hand into his clothes. Lin Zi was so frightened that he looked around, they were all people! Fortunately, these people were asleep so they didn't see He Huai's bold action.

This was unbearable, Lin Zi pulled his hand out and bit his lower lip hard.

"hiss……"

After regaining consciousness, He Huai covered her mouth and looked at Lin Zi complainingly.

"Stop making trouble...there are so many people nearby, can we try again when we go back?" Lin Zi whispered, "Let's go see Master."

The two of them tiptoed into the Taoist temple. There were more people in the Taoist temple, and they probably gave their rooms to sick refugees. Lin Zi saw that the brothers and sisters were all laying on the floor by the side door.

Lin Zi lowered his coir raincoat and hat, and led He Huai into the main hall.

Even with such a disaster, the ancestor's incense is still there, but it seems to be a little more than before.

When people are in trouble, people hope to have something to rely on in their hearts, and the ancestor is this support.

Lin Zi saw Xiaocai standing guard in the hall, he looked extremely tired, his small body was about to slump to the ground, but when he heard the footsteps approaching, he still stood up and smiled, "I'm sorry , it's too late now, the benefactor should give the patriarch tomorrow... Master?"

Lin Zi lifted off the coir raincoat and bucket hat, Xiaocai was so surprised that he couldn't close his mouth, and he stammered after a while, "Master? You...why are you here?"

"I heard that the capital city was flooded and the Taoist temple helped many people. I'll come and see if there is anything I can do for you."

Xiaocai hesitated again and said, "Master, let's go back..."

He sneaked a look at Lin Zi's face, "Master doesn't want Master to have more entanglements with us. Last time we met Master, Master heard about it, and he was very angry, saying that we had too much contact with Master. meeting……"

"It will lead to disaster, right?" Lin Zi smiled wryly.

He understood the master's intentions, and this time he came here simply to meet him, and had no other intentions.

So He Huai spoke for him, "Your master just misses his master, where is the master?"

Xiaocai stretched out his finger, the master is right outside the door.

Seeing Lin Zi, the master was stunned, and came over with a slightly reproachful tone, "You...I told you to hide from people, it's best not to come here in this life...Did anyone find you when you came? ?”

"No, master, don't worry, I'll leave tomorrow." He Huai actually heard a choked sound from Lin Zi's voice, "It's as long as you and Xiaocai and the juniors are fine. Tomorrow is the day when the gate of hell will open. There are a lot of people who died in the flood, and there must be a lot of ghosts..."

"Don't worry about this, I have seen disasters worse than this, so what is this little water." He approached Lin Zi, his cloudy eyes were full of pity, "It's you, why do you look so haggard?"

Lin Zi touched his face unconsciously, "It's okay, but the candlelight is a bit dim, and it makes people look bad."

"That's it..." The master accepted this statement, he looked out the window at the sky, it was gray, it seemed that the sky was about to dawn.

"It's almost dawn now, there are many people outside, you don't want to run out now, just stay in the Taoist temple, and then leave after dark." The master gave him a deep look, unable to guess what he was thinking , "Xiaocai has made great progress recently. You two can go to the firewood room to catch up on the old days. There are many people who come here to worship during the day, so don't be discovered by others."

"understood."

Seeing his too thin face, Master couldn't help but sighed, and said after hearing the sound, "I let you go just to protect you. If someone finds out, it's a crime of deceiving the emperor. There is no other meaning. You have to take care of yourself. do you know?"

"Ah."

The master looked at Xiaocai, turned around and walked out, "Then you masters and apprentices can talk among themselves, Xiaocai is very obedient, and he has improved a lot recently."

He Huai made way for him, he stopped in front of He Huai, and suddenly bowed his hands in a big salute, scaring He Huai who was squatting at the door and trying not to get close to the patriarch.

"Thank you General for taking care of the boy these days, Pindao is very grateful."

He Huai quickly helped him up, and stammered, "No, it's okay, I'm no longer a general... By the way! I have to tell you something."

He thought of what he had done to Lin Zi. Although he decided to live his life privately, it was still necessary to let his master know - anyway, he didn't know when we would meet again in the future, and it didn't matter what he did to Lin Zi, and he couldn't beat himself to death.

Master Zu's beard flicked, it was the first time he saw the general so solemn, he trembled in his heart, first he prepared himself mentally, he even wanted to come in such a thing as the emperor's abdication - although he really hoped so.

"General, please speak."

He watched helplessly as He Huai suddenly gave Lin Zi a shy and timid look, like a young girl waiting to marry seeing her sweetheart.

Lin Zixin couldn't say it well...

"Lin Zi and I have made a private decision for the rest of our lives, and we hope our master will fulfill it."

Lin Zi covered his face and turned his back, wishing he could hide behind the Patriarch.

The master stammered, "No...it's okay, our sect can eat meat and drink wine and get married... No, general, why do you want to make a private life with your apprentice?"

I want you to take care of him, not for you to take care of him as a daughter-in-law!

He Huai cast his eyes on Lin Zi, with a shy face, "Because he likes me too."

I'm not, I'm not, don't talk nonsense...

Well, actually there are.

He stepped forward and knelt in front of his master, "The general has taken good care of me this year, disciple, disciple has nothing to repay."

There is no need to repay you, and there is no need to promise with your body!

The master didn't know what to say anymore, forget it, he can't care about these things, he helped Lin Zi up, "This is your own decision, you can't say anything as a teacher, just don't regret it in the future."

"The general is a gentleman, and this disciple has no regrets."

Master's eyes were sour, that cowardly child had really grown up now, but he didn't know when he would meet again... He had nothing to criticize, it was better to have someone to take care of him than to be alone.

Master pinched his middle finger to calm himself down.

"Then how far are you now?"

He Huai quickly replied, "I have done everything that needs to be done!"

Lin Zi didn't even have time to cover his mouth, as if his master had been struck by lightning, he pointed at He Huai and said tremblingly, "Bitch... a beast!"

When Lin Zi pushed him out the door, he still pointed at He Huai and couldn't scold him for a long time.

If the patriarch hadn't been watching from the hall, he would have rolled up his sleeves and had a fight with He Huai.

After finally sending his master away, when he looked back, his apprentice was looking at them innocently.

Lin Zi's breath suddenly weakened, "Xiaocai, let's go to the woodshed."

"Master, should I call him Master Mistress?"

"Don't say..."

Fortunately, there is no water in the firewood house, which is probably due to the large number of victims recently. There were only a few pieces of wood left in the house.

After a while, the sky gradually brightened and the rain stopped. He Huai looked at it and said happily, "A lot of dark clouds have dispersed in the sky. I think it won't be long before the rain will stop."

Xiaocai also came over to look at it, "That's really great! The disaster victims will be able to go home soon!"

He Huai said, "To be honest, this is not a major disaster."

Xiaocai stared wide-eyed, "The fertile fields have been flooded, a lot of things in the house have been soaked, and the river outside the city has washed away several people, why don't they count?"

Lin Zi continued, "It really doesn't count. You can't even imagine a real flood. Houses are completely washed away. People can't help hiding on the roof. Mountains are washed away. It's not surprising that hundreds of people died. Spirits are crying all over the place, comparable to Shura Hell, at least there is a place to hide here, in front of the real flood, there is only waiting to die."

Xiaocai was so shocked that he couldn't even close his mouth.

"However, it looks like the sky will clear up soon. The sun will recede after two days. Last year's harvest was quite good. There should still be food for the victims. Don't worry too much." He Huai sat next to Xiaocai , rubbed his head, but saw that his eyes were blue, as if he hadn't rested for a long time.

"Why are you so tired?" He patted his thigh, "I allow you to lie here and sleep."

Xiaocai shook his head, "I can't sleep, I have nightmares when I fall asleep, it's better not to sleep..."

"What's wrong?" Lin Zi asked.

Xiaocai just said that half a month ago, on the way back after exorcising ghosts with his seniors, he saw a family having a wedding. That family gave wedding candy to people they saw, and invited them to come in for a sit-down. Anyway, there is plenty of time. , Xiaocai went in with his brothers.

He sat in the corner, watching others set off firecrackers and hand out wedding candy, and soon the bride was picked up, firecrackers were fired, and everyone was so beaming that they couldn't close their eyes from laughing.

But at this time, he did see a man in mourning clothes from the crowd——Xiao Cai was not sure whether the other party was a human or a ghost, or a human, he would definitely be kicked out of the wedding banquet if he appeared like this, but the expressions of the people around It doesn’t change, I don’t seem to see him, say it’s a ghost, this big sun, it’s firecrackers, and it’s human, the yang energy is so strong, how can he appear here?

Just as he was thinking, that guy actually turned his head to look at Xiaocai, and grinned.

That smile was so terrifying, it almost frightened Xiaocai out of his wits. After returning home, he still looks like that ghost when he closes his eyes, and he dare not sleep anymore.

He asked Lin Zi worriedly, "Master, what kind of weird thing is that? Will he come to seek revenge on me?"

Lin Zi touched the silly boy's brain, "You can see that he didn't listen to the master's lecture well, that ghost is just a frustrated ghost."

The dejected ghost and the happy ghost have the same effect. The happy ghost dies in the funeral and will appear in happy clothes during the funeral. On the contrary, the dejected ghost is a person who was originally happy to attend the wedding banquet. When I got to a high place, I died suddenly and suddenly, so I am extremely regretful, and I can't deal with the unfinished business during my lifetime.

Therefore, the ghosts complained about the sky and the earth, and became a climate over time. They specially chose festive banquets, and came here in an attempt to express their unfinished sense of joy during their lifetime.

This kind of ghost is much more powerful than ordinary wandering ghosts. It can completely act in broad daylight, not afraid of the yang energy in crowded places, and not afraid of the sound of firecrackers.

However, it is better than the happy ghost who sees someone die. Although this kind of ghost is not a good kind, it is not trying to seduce someone's soul and kill someone.

When you encounter this kind of ghost, as long as you don't see it, it's fine.

At most, like Xiaocai, he can spend a few days with others.

Lin Zi said, "Don't be afraid, take some mugwort leaves to take a bath later, and let the senior brother do a ritual for you to drive away evil spirits."
