After Marrying the Lord of the Underworld

After getting into Jingxian's car, Lu Yingjiu put on his seat belt: "Let's go."

"How did the talk go?" Jing Xian stepped on the gas pedal.

"No problem." Lu Yingjiu said, "The rest is just the Chen family..."

The Chen family is the most difficult to deal with.

Ye family and Chu family, at least he knows more people.The Chen family is completely unfamiliar. The last time we met was when we were looking for human skin masks.

If he had to say it, the people he knew best in the Chen family were Chen Xiaoling and Chen Zheng.

He had the grace of saving Chen Xiaoling's mother, if he asked, Chen Xiaoling would definitely be willing.

She can invite gods, but she is not an exorcist in essence.If she was really allowed to fight with her attendants, it would be tantamount to suicide.

So he didn't consider Chen Xiaoling.

As for Chen Zheng...

They have worked together for many years, drank tea and chatted together.When Lu Yingjiu left the Blue Lantern Festival, Chen Zheng put the most pressure on them, and the two had a really unpleasant quarrel.

After that, during the matter of Mrs. Chen, Chen Zheng was stabbed several times by Chen Qi and sent to the ICU. Lu Yingjiu went to see him with fruit - this was the last time they met.When Lu Yingjiu came back from the ghost world, Chen Zheng also sent a few messages to express his condolences.

Other than that, there is no other intersection.

But anyway, give it a try.

Lu Yingjiu sent a message to Chen Zheng, saying that he was near the Green Lantern Festival, and asked where he was, because it was not convenient for Fang to meet.

After a few seconds, Chen Zheng replied to him: [I'm at the teahouse at the corner of the street, the one you've also been to]

So Jing Xian turned the car around and drove over there.

When he arrived at the downstairs of the teahouse, he asked Lu Yingjiu, "Should I wait for you in the car?"

"Well, thank you for your hard work." Lu Yingjiu kissed him.

Jing Xian was immediately elated: "It's not hard, and I didn't wait in the car, I just went shopping with Mao Tuanzi."

Mao Tuanzi in the back seat of the car: "Aww!" He licked the corner of his mouth.

Lu Yingjiu: "..."

Jing Xian must have given Mao Tuanzi a ghost again.

He got out of the car and went up the stairs to the second floor.

This teahouse is hidden in the busy city, and it is very elegantly arranged. The entrance is a rockery and a fountain, and all kinds of potted plants are lush and green.It was the afternoon of a weekday, and there were not many people.

Following the guidance, Lu Yingjiu came to the innermost room.

Open the door and enter, the tea is fragrant, and a pot of scented tea is slightly bubbling.The middle-aged man with a beer belly was pouring tea. He pushed a bamboo silk teacup towards him and said with a smile, "Come on, drink some of the jasmine tea that someone just gave me."

Lu Yingjiu sat down and said, "Why are you drinking tea alone?"

"Isn't this a sudden tea addiction?" Chen Zheng turned the cup in his hand, "I just came back from a meeting and passed by here, so I just came to sit in the teahouse."

Lu Yingjiu nodded and took a sip of scented tea.

Chen Zheng's tea making skills are still so good, with the top-quality tea leaves, the fragrance of jasmine is fully drawn out.

Lu Yingjiu likes scented tea, and Chen Zheng also knows this, and he often made it for him before.

After drinking half a glass, Chen Zheng said, "Xiao Lu, what's the matter with you coming here so suddenly?"

Lu Yingjiu repeated the same opening remarks, saying that there was something about Baigui Yaxing and herself.

Sure enough, unlike Ye and Chu, Chen Zheng had obvious hesitation on his face.

He put down his teacup and sat up straight: "Can't you let me hear what's going on before making a decision?"

Lu Yingjiu said: "No, just knowing this will bring bad luck."

There was a long silence in the tea room.

The teacup was empty, and the boiling water was bubbling and bubbling.

Chen Zheng made and added tea again, and said after a long time, "However, we have been preparing for this Night Walk of Hundred Ghosts for a long time."

He took a deep breath: "Because of this matter, I haven't been home a few times for more than half a month, running around and urging progress. Now that the defense line has been deployed, all kinds of talismans have been arranged, and there are even more differences in the city. Patrolmen. This biggest hyakki night walk in history is dangerous, but I think we can handle it."

The implication is that there is no need to take risks, and there is no need to use Lu Yingjiu's method to stop the ghosts.

"Besides," he looked at Lu Yingjiu, "don't you also say that you 'do not guarantee success'?"

"Yes." Lu Yingjiu nodded, "Success is not guaranteed."

Chen Zheng stroked the teacup slowly again, and raised his head to drink the tea.

After a few mouthfuls, he said: "It is the most critical moment, and morale is very important."

"Didn't the head of the Ye family die last time during the Night Walk of Hundred Ghosts? The news was suppressed until the end of the night walk. If the news hadn't been concealed, it would have caused much panic to the Ye family. "

"Xiaolu... After all, I am the president of the Blue Lantern Club and one of the backbones of the Chen family. If something really happens, it will have a great impact on the Blue Lantern Club and the Chen family. I believe they will not become one." But we should try to avoid this risk as much as possible."

Lu Yingjiu nodded: "I see."

He didn't feel disappointed. From the very beginning, he didn't expect Chen Zheng to agree.

Chen Zheng rubbed his eyebrows.

Before he knew it, there was a thin layer of sweat on his forehead, he seemed restless, and said: "Come on, Xiaolu, drink tea slowly, we haven't sat down and chatted for a long time."

"I'll leave after drinking this cup." Lu Yingjiu said, "Someone is waiting for me."

"Oh, that's good, that's good." Chen Zheng squinted his eyes and nodded, with a smile, "I won't waste your time."

Lu Yingjiu finished her scented tea, stood up and said, "I'm leaving."

Chen Zheng said, "Xiao Lu, I still want to ask a question."

"What?" Lu Yingjiu stood still, thinking that you and Chu Banyang really look alike, they both ask questions when they catch people leaving.

The water vapor made the pot lid rattle.

Chen Zheng asked: "Is this matter related to Chen Minlan?"

Lu Yingjiu froze for a moment, remembering that Chen Zheng was under Chen Minlan, and replied, "Yes, it has something to do with her. Did she mention it to you?"

"No." Chen Zheng said, "I have a vague sense of what plan she and others have arranged together. But I don't know the specific content."

He showed a smile of unknown meaning: "Thinking about it now, she probably wanted to tell me a few times, but she didn't say it out of her mouth. I don't know if she was worried that I would suffer the so-called 'bad luck'. "

"Probably." Lu Yingjiu nodded.

"She actually told me another thing." Chen Zheng said, "On the night when the Miemen case happened, she called me."

Lu Yingjiu knew about this.

He heard that conversation in the listening mirror.

Mrs. Chen finally said that she hoped that Chen Zheng could become a brave and kind person.

Chen Zheng said: "She told me to be careful about Chen Qi, saying that he had certain suspicions. After her death, I was devastated for a long time. Do you know who came to comfort me every day?"

"It's Chen Qi."

He squeezed the cup tightly in his hand, and his fingernails were slightly white: "He ran up and down for me every day, arranged the funeral of the old lady, arranged for her other relatives, and made everything leak-free. If it wasn't for him, the Chen family would have made a mess of porridge long ago."

"Then what?" Lu Yingjiu said lightly, "Because of this, you gave up the pursuit of him?"

"Not all." Chen Zheng sighed, "When I recover, I will start investigating him."

"But I have to say that those illusions have blinded me. Every night I always think that he is my only relative. No matter how close the rest of the Chen family are to me, they are still not my real brother."

"So, after I searched and found no evidence, I was completely relieved of him."

Lu Yingjiu said: "If you don't let your guard down completely, it won't be my turn to catch him."

"Yes." Chen Zheng nodded, "Yes, you are right. I should have caught him long ago."

At this moment, a dejected look appeared on his face.

Lu Yingjiu had never seen him look like this.

The bamboo silk teacup was turned a few more times in his hand, and Chen Zheng said slowly: "Xiao Lu, although you can't say it out loud, you actually look down on me in your heart."

"No." Lu Yingjiu said.

Chen Zheng was a little surprised, his hands froze, and he didn't even bother to drink tea.

Lu Yingjiu said, "Why didn't I tell you? I just look down on you."

Chen Zheng: "..."

He was holding the cup, and neither lifted it nor put it down.

"I'm leaving." Lu Yingjiu said.

He closed the door of the tea room, leaving Chen Zheng who was so embarrassed that he was sitting on pins and needles.

Go back to Jing Xian's car.

Jingxian asked: "He didn't agree?"

"Well, it's expected." Lu Yingjiu put down the seat and lay down comfortably, "I'll think about other candidates."

"go home?"

"go home."

……

As soon as he got home, Mao Tuanzi fought with the cow cat for cat food, and the hair flew around during the fight.

Jing Xian made dinner.

It was rare for Lu Yingjiu to cook, so he rolled up his loose home clothes, and joined him in folding vegetables, slicing meat, and brushing crabs.

By the time the hot meals were served, the night was already low.They turned on the light in the dining room, set the table and chopsticks, and began to eat dinner.

While eating, Lu Yingjiu suddenly said: "When the ghosts walk at night, are you going back to the ghost world?"

He asked for a reason.

It is not only the ghost exorcist who contributes to the Hundred Ghosts Night Walk.

The priests will also stop the night walk of the ghosts, which is one of their responsibilities.

One night before, before going to sleep, Lu Yingjiu didn't know how to chat with Jing about this topic.

Jing Xian put his arms around him and said: "The essence of the Night Walk of the Hundred Ghosts is the eruption of Yin energy from the ghost world."

"For example, there will be various natural disasters in the yang world, such as earthquakes, typhoons, and tsunamis. The natural disasters in the ghost world are the outbreak of Yin Qi. Every once in a while, the abyss on the eighteenth floor of the ghost world will start to stir."

"The abyss has no end. All the ghosts that fell died of starvation and old age during the fall. It is also the place where Yin Qi is produced. Once it is agitated, Yin Qi will start from the eighteenth floor and sweep upwards layer by layer, eroding all ghosts."

"The ghosts in Hundred Ghosts at Night are all lonely and wild ghosts corroded by Yin Qi."

Lu Yingjiu let out an "Oh", and pulled a button of Jingxian's, and asked again: "How many ghosts are there that were dealt with in the ghost world? We asked many priests before, but we couldn't tell."

"Probably [-]% or [-]%." Jing Xian thought for a while, "The rest can't be stopped, so they come to the world."

Lu Yingjiu was listening carefully while pulling the button.

Pulling and pulling, the hand was held.

Lu Yingjiu:?

Then they both undid all the buttons.

Now that the Night Walk of the Hundred Ghosts is approaching, Lu Yingjiu thought about it again.

Jing Xian was noncommittal to his question: "Maybe."

"Let's go back." Lu Yingjiu said, "This time is extraordinary, you are a priest, and you can only display your full strength in the ghost world."

Jing Xian wanted to say something more, but didn't speak.

Lu Yingjiu knew what he was thinking.

If he had a choice, he would never want to be separated from Jing Xian.

The two remained silent, Lu Yingjiu put a chopstick dish into Jingxian's bowl.

When they go to bed at night, they lie together.

Lu Yingjiu was still tugging at the button—with his persistence, the button finally showed signs of falling off.

Jing Xian said: "Is this button so fun?"

"Anyway, it's boring, so just pick it up casually." Lu Yingjiu said.

Jing Xian: "You are really boring, we can play something else."

Lu Yingjiu: "..."

Lu Yingjiu: "I'm 'playing' with you every day, right? If you don't sleep, I will sleep."

Jingxian was speechless with regret.

The surrounding is quiet, only the sound of the second hand.

Lu Yingjiu was a little sleepy, and after a while, he said to Jingxian, "If it's really necessary, don't worry about going to the ghost world. The first half of the day of the Hundred Ghosts Night Walk is the most powerful, if you don't stop the ghosts, Yangjian doesn’t know what will happen.”

Jing Xian said: "At that time, you have already activated the formation. If you really found the way of heaven, do you want to go there alone?"

He added: "As long as I stop the first wave, there will be a gap in the middle, and then I will be able to come back temporarily."

"Probably not," Lu Yingjiu shook his head, "As long as the formation is activated, Heavenly Dao will definitely notice us and won't give us another chance to breathe. Once the formation is activated, I must act immediately."

Jing Xian: "..."

He gently grabbed Lu Yingjiu's hand.

Lu Yingjiu smiled lightly: "However, I promised that I would never abandon you again. No matter what happens, I will persist until you come over."

In the darkness, Jing Xian stared at him intently: "You promise?"

"Yes." Lu Yingjiu kissed his hand, "I promise."

Only then did Jing Xian look better.

After appeasing the ghost king, Lu Yingjiu yawned and continued to pick the button.

Suddenly, with a light hand——

He looked down and saw that the black button finally failed to resist and was pulled off by him.The white thread broke apart, and the pajamas were opened, revealing a large area of ​​skin and looming muscle lines.

Lu Yingjiu raised her head subconsciously, and met Jingxian's eyes.

Jing Xian's eyes were dim and excited.

Lu Yingjiu: "..."

Big things are bad.

That night, he "played" with Jing Xian for another round before he could sleep soundly, thinking that in the future only Jing Xian would be allowed to wear pullovers.

Waking up the next morning, Lu Yingjiu ate breakfast in a daze.

After the dishes were cleared away, he took out his phone.

Ye Feng still didn't reply.

At noon yesterday, he wanted to call Ye Feng, but Ye Feng said that he had something to do and it was inconvenient to talk, and the bar had to ask for leave.

In the evening, Lu Yingjiu also sent him a message, but there was no text until now.

He frowned.

"What's the matter?" Jing Xian lifted the Mao Tuanzi to the sofa, and threw himself on the sofa, just hugging Lu Yingjiu, "He didn't reply?"

"Yeah." Lu Yingjiu nodded, "I'm a little worried, let's go to his house and have a look."

Jing Xian: "...there is someone at the door."

"Ok?"

Jing Xian said: "There are people at the door."

After five or six seconds, the doorbell rang "Ding Dong--".

Lu Yingjiu went over and opened the door.

The middle-aged man stood outside, wearing sportswear, his temples were slightly white, but the muscle lines of his arms were still obvious.He is not tall, but his whole body reveals a beast-like temperament, capable and strong.

Ye Shou.

Ye Feng's father.

When he was the chief, Lu Yingjiu met Ye Shou several times, and the two of them had no relationship in private.

He naturally knew that the father-son relationship between the two was tense, and they hadn't talked properly for several years.This visit was really unexpected.

Lu Yingjiu: "...do you have anything to do?"

He narrowed his eyes slightly: "Is Ye Feng with you?"
