Tai sui

Xi Ping wanted to persecute him, Yao Qi didn't have any doubts, he believed it on the spot.

In the eyes of the Yao family, the noble concubine Xi's family is a demon concubine, and the Xi's family is a demon cave that specializes in producing demons and ghosts.As for that Xi Ping, Yao Qi felt that he had never held his fart just by looking at his expression!

Young Master Yao had a nightmare the day before, dreaming that the surname Xi stuck a straw in his head, sucked his brains and drank it, and he thought there was no sugar in it!

How can this be good?

Yao Qi lost his mind and wished he could rush to the Chengjing Hall on the spot and call for help.But he couldn't do it. Yao Qi never dared to tell his husband that he needed to go to the toilet since he was a child. He had to type up a hundred drafts when he usually said hello to the elders in charge. How could he call "help"?

The ink on the note looked like a child's graffiti, and he took it to Chengjing Hall to accuse his classmates of trying to harm him... Yao Qi felt that it would be better to turn himself into a ghost to take revenge.

There was a roar of frogs in his stomach, he bent down in pain, and felt the call of the toilet again.

After the colic passed, Young Master Yao hurriedly inspected his doors and windows, and finally mustered up the courage to push open the north window of the study and peek out.Somehow it was such a coincidence that Xi Ping was pouring the tea root into the osmanthus tree pit outside the window, and the two of them looked at each other halfway across the courtyard.

Xi Ping smiled at him from afar and showed his white teeth.

Yao Qi slapped on the window with a "bang", wanting to cry without tears: It's broken, the vixens are starting to grind their teeth!

"Tsk." Xi Ping poured tea, threw the cup aside casually, and ate a green plum brought back from the dining hall.

However, when he turned around and saw the reincarnated wood carving on the desk, he seemed to have dropped down suddenly again, the fruit core was not spit out in his mouth, and the smile in his eyes had evaporated.

"Senior, I seem to have seen Grandpa Ah Xiang die yesterday."

Tai Sui: "No."

Xi Ping: "Didn't you say you wanted to save him?"

"This seat released him," Tai Sui said calmly, "It's just birth, old age, sickness and death. In the southern suburbs, how many people are over fifty?"

Xi Ping didn't argue with him, grabbed the reincarnating wood and concentrated on it.

There were countless pairs of hopeful eyes in front of him, and flood-like mournful voices in his ears, and then he lowered his gaze under the smoke and dust through his evil eyes, and saw Ah Xiang.

A whole day passed, and the condolence workers left one after another, Aunt Chun went out to buy food, and there was only a little orphan left in the coffin shed, mechanically adding paper to the brazier.

When Xi Ping looked at her, Ah Xiang felt something, and met Xi Ping's gaze from a distance away.

She always felt that she heard a sigh, and there was a burst of grievance for no reason, and her nose was sore.

At this time, someone behind him asked softly, "What do you feel?"

Ah Xiang was startled, and jumped up suddenly: "Who?"

A man wearing a bamboo hat entered the coffin shed at some point, with a crow standing on his shoulder.

The man didn't answer, but respectfully put incense on the deceased, and said in a deep voice, "The family is mourning."

Ah Xiang subconsciously returned the salute, inadvertently raised his eyes, and saw the other party's face under the bamboo hat.Ah Xiang suddenly lost color, and almost screamed out - half of this man's face seemed to have been melted by acid, and the left side of his face was only covered with taut skin, without eyebrows or eyes.However, the only remaining eye on this terrifying face was gentle and melancholy, Ah Xiang met that father-brother-like gaze, and for some reason, he became less afraid.

The man said softly: "Son, did you feel Taisui Xingjun's gaze just now?"

A Xiang was taken aback, and covered the reincarnation wooden sign on his chest: "You are..."

"That night, it was Tai Sui Xingjun who led me to rescue you." The man said, "Good boy, don't cry, Tai Sui is watching. You will make great achievements in the future—what's your name?"

The girl didn't know whether she should believe it or thank her, so she murmured, "Ah Xiang..."

The man glanced at the surname on the tablet: "The name is Wei Xiang?"

"...Wei Chengxiang."

The man seemed to be smiling: "Okay, I wonder if I am qualified to be your guide?"

Ah Xiang was dizzy: "Uncle, where will you lead me?"

"Go to the ground, then put on a feather coat, and climb up to the top of the tree. If there is injustice, there will be a cry." The man said softly, "You should remember this saying 'If the fire does not go away, the cicadas will sing endlessly, I would rather die than go against my heart'."

Xi Ping frowned suddenly, and the picture between his eyebrows was shattered: "Senior, I don't understand. This little girl has all hair and doesn't understand anything. What's the use of taking her as a disciple? Why not take that girl with her?" big girl."

Tai Sui paused, and replied vaguely: "I didn't choose her, but she chose me—you should do your homework."

Xi Ping let out an "oh" reluctantly, like a lazy donkey procrastinating.He dawdled with the cinnabar that he accidentally got on when he was grabbing the reincarnated wood, washed his hands for half a year, and then took off the Karma Beast's make-up, asked for new tea and ate fruit, until he heard Tai Sui's cold snort, he didn't Reluctantly, they sat down at the desk and opened the book that their senior brother asked them to read.

Xi Ping pondered in his heart: the first day he heard someone speak, the most clear thing was Ah Xiang's "Save Grandpa".The old roundworm claimed that she had awakened him, which was probably true.

There must be something special about this little girl, either her horoscope or her physique.

Da Xie Chong called himself "Tai Sui", and said that the reincarnated wood was his companion tree, so Xi Ping didn't believe a word of it, even if the wind flashed his tongue.

Reincarnated wood has existed since ancient times, and it is not a new species imported from overseas.But this is evil... Through limited information, Xi Ping feels that he should be from General Zhi's era.

The old roundworm has a big face, and he doesn't pay attention to ordinary people at all in his speech. He knows Zhi Xiu, but Zhi Xiu doesn't know him, which means that he "looked up" when he saw Zhi Xiu, at least at that time, he should not have entered the mystery Door.General Zhi was ill at an early age, and entered Xuanyin Mountain in his thirties. The old roundworm had seen him in the mortal world, so his birth date should not be too late.

In fact, Xi Ping also felt that he was not of a high family background, and that he should have lived in seclusion for a long time-every time he satirizes "extravagant desire", he has to take it to the Qifeng Pavilion, which is outrageous.

That's why Xi Ping dared to take advantage of the loopholes and asked Ban Ou to use "honey voice" to send a message to General Zhi.

"Miyin" is a set of secret codes used by the dandies in Jinping's cockfighting and lackeys to pass messages to each other. They are used to hide from the adults at home when they are making trouble.Among them, the "finger honey tone" is to tap out the rhythm with the fingers, and the threshold of communication is the lowest. There are a lot of people who use it, and it is easy to leak secrets. Therefore, the rules are changed regularly, and the piano and whistle do not change much.The night before, Xi Ping tried to teach Ban Ou a few "whistle honey sounds".

He didn't know if Zhi Xiu could understand, anyway, Tai Sui probably wouldn't understand, and if the evil spirit set his eyes and ears on places he didn't know about, he wouldn't be able to reveal his secrets.

As for the matter of him letting Ban Ou stuff a note into Yao Qi's quilt, Xi Ping also took it as a "fun prank" and wrote it in a letter home. The big devil really thought he was boring and didn't pay attention at all... In this way, you can write something else on the note later.

"I'm sorry brother, you should think that saving someone's life is better than building a seven-level pagoda," Xi Ping thought, "In the future, I will stand still and let you beat me to vent my anger."

But... Unexpectedly, Uncle Zhi looks like a gentleman picked out of an ancient book, and he was not a serious person when he was young.

Xi Ping turned his stomach full of heart and soul, and at the same time fooled his homework casually - anyway, when the brother asked, someone helped him cheat.

The next day, Yao Qi saw the reincarnated wooden sculpture on Xi Ping's table early in the morning at the Qiankun Pagoda. The "matchmaker makeup" was wiped off, and Xi Ping painted the causal beast with high and low eyebrows and freckles around the nose. .

Yao Qi was terrified all of a sudden - he himself has high and low eyebrows and spots on his face!

After the evening class, Yao Qi fled back to Qiu Ziyuan, and found the second note in the quilt with fear.

I got up in the morning and found the third one in my shoe...

Those ghostly drawn talismans full of corpses almost scared Young Master Yao crazy. Finally, he couldn't bear it anymore, took out the plain paper, cried and wrote a letter to his family for help, and quietly put it in the small pond behind the house in the middle of the night.

After Yao Qi put the letter into the room, the semi-occasional Xi Yue came out from behind the tree, and carried the dusted shoes back to Xi Ping's room as if nothing had happened.

Jinping was gloomy for several days, and it rained dust.

"Calling yourself 'Tai Sui'?" Zhuang Wang rubbed the center of his brows, "You mean... an evil god who has sloughed off a cicada half-step, and Shi Yong's fan mixed up the inscription of drawing the dragon's veins?"

Bai Ling buried his head very low, and said with little confidence: "This is the news from our 'nail' in the Tianji Pavilion. The subordinates also found it incredible, and specially ordered someone to talk sideways with Captain Zhao Yuwei, which probably can be confirmed. superior."

Zhuang Wang frowned and said nothing.

Bering: "Subordinates are not good at work..."

King Zhuang waved his hand and said inaudibly: "Your statement reminds me of 'the people there'."

Bering was taken aback: "You mean no...who!"

He yelled and asked with strength, and directly smashed the invisible barrier made by the inscription on the door and window of the South Study Room, and passed it out of the window.

As soon as the barrier of the inscription was broken, the sound of wind and rain swept into the room, and then someone said loudly: "Pang Jian, the right deputy commander of Chen Tianji Pavilion, please see His Royal Highness Zhuang Wang."

King Zhuang raised his eyebrows, and quickly exchanged a glance with Bai Ling.

Bering was about to turn into a paper figurine to hide immediately, but just as he was half of the paper, he was interrupted by King Zhuang and said, "No, Pang Dutong's 'Breaking Obstacle Dao Xin' has been completed, you can't hide from his eyes—— Senior, please come in."

Pang Jian passed through the courtyard wall in response, put an umbrella under the porch, and waited for Bering to open the door.

His face was unmoved, but his heart was horrified: Except for General Zhi, no one knows that his Taoism has been completed. How can this mortal King Zhuang be able to tell?Just open his mouth to break his Dao heart?

And those inscriptions...

The inscriptions in Prince Zhuang's Mansion are not overstepped, and they are indeed "third-class inscriptions" given by Xuanyin Mountain. If you walk in other people's world, you may not see any problems.But Pang Jian happened to know a little about the inscription, so he saw the problem at a glance.

The inscriptions are so broad and profound that only the Great God Pan Gu, who was born in the chaos and divided the world with his own hands, dared to understand.Some people even think that the inscriptions are the foundation of the wind and clouds in the world and the flow of rivers into the sea.

When an inscription falls, it may even change the cold and heat, so that rhododendrons bloom on the white snow, and frost flowers form under the scorching sun.Every stroke of the inscription must be extremely precise, and every penny long or short can make a big difference.Even the inscriber is different, the time and place of inscription is different, and the form of the inscription has changed.

The inscription needs to use the true energy of the engraver, and only the monk who established the foundation can engrave it.But [-]% of the foundation-establishing monks, not to mention carvings, would be good if they could roughly understand third-class inscriptions.Even a monk who specializes in studying inscriptions may not be able to engrave a simple fourth-class inscription well after studying for hundreds of years.

For example, the third-class inscriptions used by the county prince's mansion must be calculated by a special person, please stay away from the left and right, and code them in a very strict way and order. If the order is wrong, the garden will be blown into ruins.

But the order of the inscriptions in Zhuang Wangfu's South Study Room is completely wrong, it was clearly rearranged by someone!

With Pang Jian's attainments, he couldn't see how the disordered inscriptions were arranged. He only knew that he couldn't hear a sound from the South Study Room just now, separated by two thin walls.

Compared with these, the hidden guards around Zhuang Wang, who are strictly speaking "evil spirits", are nothing.

King Zhuang didn't get up when he saw him coming, with a thick blanket on his lap, he said with a smile: "I have been weak since I was a child, and I often suffer from knee and leg pain when it's rainy, so I can't get up to greet him. If the elder forgives me. "

Pang Jian hurriedly said politely: "Don't dare."

Bai Ling served the tea in silence. King Zhuang glanced at Bai Ling and said with a meaningful smile: "Your Excellency came here alone, so he probably didn't come to me to 'burn paper'. Is there any advice for you?"

The other party didn't know the depth of the matter, so Pang Jian simply didn't go around in circles: "I came here on the secret order of the inner sect branch master. He didn't let me tell others, but only asked me to come to His Highness."

King Zhuang curled his fingers on his knees: "Oh?"

Pang Jian said: "About Yongning Hou Shizi."

The spring-like smile on Zhuang Wang's face disappeared, and a pair of dark pupils looked over, reminiscent of a bottomless well.

"What's Xi Shiyong doing at Qianxiu Temple again? You're welcome to the Xianmen, if you make a mistake, just hit him." He took the teacup from Bering, and said softly, as if he couldn't stand the scream, "Besides, how can I control him? The elder should go to Lord Yongning."

Pang Jian said, "Your Highness, it was Shizi himself who told Master Uncle to let us come to His Highness."

When Zhuang Wang touched the porcelain cup and the lid, there was a crisp sound of "choking".

"Uncle Master said that because we didn't investigate for a while, we told that evil spirit to run away outside the Nancheng City. I don't know what kind of evil method was used to attach to Junior Brother Xi. Even Princess Duanrui was able to hide it from the eyes and ears. Fortunately, Junior Brother did not Opened the spirit aperture, people are alert, managed to report the matter to the uncle, and said that there is a way to send a message to His Highness, let us come to His Highness."

King Zhuang was silent for a moment, then smiled strangely, and said word by word: "He trusts Xianmen... a lot."

"Yes, we will protect Junior Brother Xi no matter what," Pang Jian said, "Your Highness is so powerful that you can tell even my Dao Xin out. I must have known that the evil spirit claimed to be 'Tai Sui' and had a perfect ascension. It matches very well, but there are some weird tricks. With him in his hands, we dare not disturb that evil spirit easily. The uncle has already returned to the inner door to ask for the fairy artifact, but we have to find out the real name of the evil spirit first, so that we can know how to use it He separated from Junior Brother Xi. Your Highness, if there is news from your side, can you help us?"

King Zhuang raised his eyes: "My lord, it is said that the heart is the lifeblood of a monk. I know your Taoist heart, are you not afraid?"

Pang Jian's face was the same, and he didn't hit a single one when he stumbled: "The Taoist heart has to be constantly questioning and questioning, so that it can be harmonious through the tribulation. The Taoist heart that is afraid of being asked, I am afraid that even I can't believe it, and I am just deceiving myself. Pang Jian Someone doesn't think it's short."

King Zhuang took a deep look at him: "Sir, it's a pity not to enter the inner sect because of your aptitude."

After finishing speaking, he lifted the blanket on his lap, stood up, and finally saluted Pang Jian: "On the day of the general election, the Japanese king did not go to Tianji Pavilion because of a small illness, and how handsome he was when he didn't have the chance to meet General Zhi. Even the devil king of our family has been subdued. Now that the bastard has confessed clearly, I have nothing to hide..."

Before he finished speaking, suddenly, a strange sound of water came from outside the window.

King Zhuang paused, and Bai Ling immediately flew out, and after a while, he took back the thumping celadon fish: "My lord, you really have faith!"

Vegetarian fish?

Pang Jian was stunned for a moment, thinking why he was so poor, could it be possible that half-occasion really made that boy a pauper?

Seeing that King Zhuang had already unfolded the letter, he quickly scanned it and handed it to Pang Jian.

Pang Jian took it over and looked at the neat and cautious words, and felt that it was not like Xi Ping's writing. Looking at the opening signature, he found that the letter was written by a young disciple named "Qi".

In the letter, he asked his family members for help incoherently, and told an unbelievable story.

"Qi" said that Xi Ping was holding a monster made of reincarnated wood in his hand, which had been painted in his own image, which was very strange—when he saw the wood carving, his chest felt tight and he couldn't breathe.An anonymous expert told him that the woodcarving was used to perform evil spirits, and as soon as he opened his spiritual aperture, he could attract evil spirits to take away his house. The Xi family had already hired Xie Chong to set up an altar in Anle Township, Start with him and murder the prince.

Xie Chong also has a first and last name, and the second son of Yao, who believes everything when threatened by others, wrote: "My name is Wei Chengxiang, and he is hiding outside the city in the southern suburbs!"

Pang Jian: "..."

It is reasonable for Xi Ping to be able to talk to Zhi Xiu, and Pang Jian knows that he has a dragon taming lock.Even if Tai Sui was extraordinarily meticulous, or if Xi Ping was not careful and the other party noticed something, with General Zhi around, he would try his best to take care of him.

But how did that kid manage to get a classmate who was obviously not good at sending the letter out for him?

The person who delivered the message was still in the dark!

After reading the letter, Pang Jian couldn't help looking at King Zhuang again, and said in his heart: Lord Xihou is not simple.

He said, how could Emperor Taiming give titles to whoever looks good? His Majesty is not a broken sleeve!What Miss Cui sang back then was "Sex Makes Wisdom Faint", it was "Red Flying at Night"!

When Zhuang Wang saw his eyes, he knew that Pang Jian was thinking too much: "Shi Yong lived with me for a few years when he was a child. Because he was the only son of my uncle, I was also young and energetic at that time. Seeing that he was not motivated, I wanted to be his father. Mother discipline, this is all a little trick he fought with me when he didn't want to study."

"My lord is too modest." Pang Jian quickly read through the letter and picked out the key words in it, "An Le Township", "Reincarnated Wood", "Enlightenment".

"The elders of the inner sect have inspected Junior Brother Xi and the reincarnated wood in his hand, and found no abnormality." Pang Jian was a cheerful person, and told King Zhuang about Tai Sui's situation in Anle Township in detail, and said, "Zhi Uncle Shi guessed that this evil spirit should not be possessed by ordinary souls. When the evil spirits we caught before communicated with each other, they needed to use their own blood to send their handwriting into the reincarnated wood. This 'Tai Sui' was the evil spirit they worshiped. Contact They don't seem to need bloodletting. What do you think, my lord?"

Zhuang Wang didn't interrupt, and after listening carefully, he said slowly: "First, this false god should be a person, not too old, similar to General Zhi."

Pang Jian was taken aback for a moment - Zhi Xiu also said the same.

"Secondly, this 'Southern Suburb Wei Chengxiang' is likely to be closely related to that Xie Chong... At least Xie Chong should be able to see her at any time, and your people should not approach her when they are checking her, otherwise they will definitely startle the snake. Thirdly, why is An Le Xiang Duo She, did the evil spirit choose Shiyong instead of other half-immortals? According to the elder's description, it seems to be related to the prostitute's life-changing talisman. When you check Wei Cheng's ringing, don't forget that prostitute." Zhuang Wang paused, and then Said, "One more thing, Pang Dutong just mentioned the 'bed press kid' and 'soul exorcism incense' in southern Xinjiang... These two things have been extinct on the black market for many years, and the other party not only got it, but also knew it' Secret method', I suspect that this person may have a connection with the south - there is a spirit stone mine under the jurisdiction of the Lancang Sword Sect in the south."

Pang Jian took a deep breath and decided to stick to his own judgment and not listen to King Zhuang's nonsense—the Xi family is definitely not easy.

"Let's go check now, if there is any news from the prince..."

"Send it to the elders at any time." Zhuang Wang didn't put on his painted smirk, "Shiyong will be entrusted to the elders."
