Jiang Cihang sent the man to the hospital in a hurry. He took his temperature, but he didn't even have a low-grade fever of 37 degrees.Fortunately, Li Qiubao's red face was red enough, unnaturally red indeed, so he was not chased away.But not long after he was sent to the hospital for consultation, Li Qiubao's red face gradually faded, not as strange and unnatural as before.But people are still dazed and not awake.

What a strange thing.

Jiang Cihang was puzzled and insisted that the doctor do a simple body check on Li Qiubao. After finding out that there was no abnormality, he bought two boxes of antipyretics and left the hospital with doubts.After sending Li Qiubao back to his home, Li Qiubao woke up in a daze as soon as it was delivered.

"Is Xiaobao okay?" Jiang Cihang breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that he was awake, "Is there any discomfort? Do you feel cold?"

Li Qiubao stared in confusion for a long time before he said slowly: "Jiang, Mr. Jiang... Ni, why are you here? Where is the mother-in-law? Where did the mother-in-law go!?"

What mother-in-law?Jiang Cihang looked puzzled: "I came back to get the documents. What mother-in-law, Qiu Bao, what are you talking about?"

Ah!

Li Qiubao came to his senses after hearing the words, looked left and right, and saw that it was the familiar decoration of Jiang Cihang's house, not a small white and airtight space.The little devil and old lady ghost who were "in the dream" just now disappeared as if they had evaporated from the world.

Li Qiubao vaguely remembered that the ghost old lady and the little ghost were inseparable, and when they were about to lose the battle, suddenly there was a chill in the air.The little ghost immediately wailed, and was instantly cut into pieces by the murderous aura, and scattered in the air like fly ash.

Immediately afterwards, and then... Li Qiubao couldn't remember clearly, it seemed that the old ghost dragged him away, right?

In short, when he woke up, he saw Jiang Cihang's worried handsome face.Everything that happened just now seemed like an illusory dream!

"I, I don't know what's going on, I fell asleep." Li Qiubao didn't know that he had just walked in front of the gate of hell, and he confessed the whole thing to Jiang Cihang in a daze: "Then I had a dream. Something like a monkey scolded me! Then, a mother-in-law came out to help me... and then, I woke up."

Li Qiubao's words sounded very far-fetched, and could easily be classified as "bragging" or "lying".However, based on Jiang Cihang's understanding of Li Qiubao, he knew that Li Qiubao was not the kind of person who liked to lie. Even if he deliberately concealed and told a small lie, Jiang Cihang could see through it at a glance.

"I'm stuck." Jiang Cihang thought for a while and said.Although we are now a society ruled by science and law, in fact, there are still many metaphysical things that are difficult to explain scientifically, such as "drowning" and "calling the soul".There is no strong evidence yet of how exactly this sort of thing happens.

Because of his grandparents, Jiang Cihang is more or less "superstitious", and has a heart of reverence for ghosts and gods.So after hearing what Li Qiubao said, he couldn't help but pay attention to it.

"Forget it, Xiaobao, you'd better go back and rest today. Otherwise, go to the temple and pray for peace of mind." Jiang Cihang suggested.But Li Qiubao thought about it and agreed, but rejected Jiang Cihang's offer to send him home because it was too much trouble.

Jiang Cihang was a little unhappy when he was rejected, "It's more convenient for me to send you there, hurry up, don't shirk. If you have any troubles, where can I find another good 'snail boy like you' in the future? ' Ah."

Helpless, Li Qiubao had no choice but to set off to the famous temple in C City to worship, accompanied by Jiang Cihang, who was the upper body of the "dominant president".

Before departure, Jiang Cihang sent a text message to Amy, saying that the meeting was postponed for another hour, and he had some personal matters to deal with.

"The sun is coming out from the west? What makes you willing to postpone the meeting?" Amy immediately replied to the message, very surprised.

You know, Jiang Cihang is a person who distinguishes between public and private, and speaks one word.Never delaying work because of personal matters, no matter how small the work is, Jiang Cihang is the number one in his heart.

"It's Xiaobao." Jiang Cihang recounted the shocking incident that just happened in a few words, "I'll explain it to you later, you should send the notice to all departments first."

Amy got the order and immediately hid.But she was shocked in her head, with a lot of information colliding.

Jiang Cihang was too concerned about Li Qiubao!It is very different from his previous character of "no benefit, no early life". I have never seen Jiang Cihang care so much about those housekeeping aunts before. Of course, it may be because of the difference in gender.

When Amy thought about Jiang Cihang's sexual orientation and usual style, she couldn't help thinking wrongly.Calculating carefully, Jiang Cihang has been vacant for almost three months, and it is normal to be tempted...

But... Li Qiubao is still a child, only 19 years old, Jiang Cihang, an "old cow", is 32 years old, 13 years older than Jiang Cihang!

Sure enough, the older a man is, the more he likes younger ones.Amy secretly despised Jiang Cihang, and included him in the list of "smelly men".

Jiang Cihang didn't know that his confidants misunderstood him, if he knew, he would definitely yell for injustice.He is kind to Li Qiubao, he really has no intention at all!But if you really want to ask why he is so nice to Li Qiubao... Jiang Cihang can't tell why.It's just that there is a vague feeling towards Li Qiubao, which has nothing to do with love, but a kind and familiar feeling.

The longer we spend together, the clearer this feeling becomes.That's why Jiang Cihang was so kind to Li Qiubao, because he subconsciously regarded Li Qiubao as a "relative".

After working for almost an hour, after going to worship in the temple, under Li Qiubao's strong insistence, Jiang Cihang just sent him to the subway station and then turned around and rushed towards his home.Jiang Cihang didn't forget that he still had a meeting to hold.

However, after Li Qiubao worshiped the Buddha, his body relaxed a lot. The local temple with the most incense in C City is a bit powerful, and the whole temple exudes a faint auspicious aura, which immediately dispelled Li Qiubao's palpitations and uneasiness after his "nightmare".

Li Qiubao even took a nap after returning to the rented room. This time, nothing messed up in his dream, and he was very peaceful.

It's just that this stability didn't last long. At five or six in the afternoon, Li Qiubao was woken up by the knocking on the door and the enthusiastic voice of a chair.

"Comrade Xiao Li, Comrade Xiao Li! Are you back yet? I am a chair on the fifth floor!"

Li Qiubao was awakened by the knock on the door, and rubbed his eyes to open the door.As soon as the door was opened, a pennant and a flower basket were stuffed into a chair immediately.

"Brother Zhang, Brother Zhang?" Li Qiubao was stunned, what's going on.

"Oh, Comrade Xiao Li, thank you so much!" Zhang Xie expressed gratitude, holding Li Qiubao's hand tightly with a pair of big hands, with tears in his eyes, "If you hadn't rescued me yesterday, I'm afraid I'm going to die! Alas, Xiao Li! Don't say much, you brother, I recognized my chair today!"

"What did I do?" Second Monk Li Qiubaozhang couldn't figure it out, he seemed to feel something vaguely in his heart, but he still couldn't see clearly through a layer of fog.But in the next second, he was pushed into the room by Zhang chair with enthusiasm, and learned the ins and outs from Zhang chair's mouth.

As soon as he entered the door, Zhang Xie lowered his voice, and said mysteriously and seriously: "Comrade Xiao Li, are you that one...? It's the yin and yang eyes!"

Li Qiubao instantly showed a panicked expression, as if his secret had been exposed, "I, I..."

There is no silver 300 taels here.

Li Qiubao is really too simple and easy to guess.Seeing this, Zhang Xie was overjoyed. People who are born with yin and yang eyes are rare "talents"!It's even a mobile "ghost tester", much easier to use and more accurate than the half-assed "ghost tester" he made himself!

We must establish a good relationship with Li Qiubao!

Zhang Xiezi thought secretly in his heart, but his mouth began to sell miserably: "Little Li, we are all on our own now, and we have nothing to hide from each other! I'm not afraid to tell you the truth, you helped me yesterday The note taken from the hair is actually not an ordinary note! It is a paper banner! It can be understood as a kind of 'mark', which is invisible to ordinary people! People who are marked by the paper banner, at night, just There will be 'tigers' following the trail and claiming their lives! In fact, to put it simply, I was cursed to death, and I almost stepped into the gate of hell!"

Zhang Xie recalled last night, still feeling lingering fear.Although he is a half-hearted celestial master, he still knows a lot.

Yesterday, after discovering that someone had marked him with a paper streamer, Zhang Xie took some of his own blood that night, smeared it on the clothes he usually wears, and then spread the clothes on the bed, pretending to be a human figure, so that the follower would come and claim his life The tiger tore the clothes to pieces, broke the spell, and escaped the catastrophe.

He told Li Qiubao about the thrilling experience of last night, embellishing the plot of "fighting skills", which really frightened Li Qiubao, and he was speechless for a long time.

Zhang Xie was proud of himself, and said: "Alas, the tree is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it. I am too good to be targeted by my peers. Fortunately, this curse is easy to break, otherwise I will go here. Zhong Kui in the underworld must make room for me!"

This chair is not afraid of flashing waist when talking big.After bragging, Li Qiubao frowned and asked in disbelief and doubt: "Paper...is it that simple, can it kill people?"

"To be precise, it's the special paper streamers that do this. In fact, it's a kind of sorcery. It was created by imitating the method of marking people who are about to die. It's just that it can't be used well. It is easy to be backlashed." Zhang Xie straightened his expression, and said with a serious face.

Once "professional knowledge" was involved, Zhang Xie's attitude became much more serious, and he shook his head to give Li Qiubao a popular science: "As we all know, there is a "Book of Life and Death" in this underworld. It records when our people, including birds and beasts, should give birth It's just that there are too many people with the same name, the same surname, and the same month and day in the same year. Even though the underworld servants have the roster in hand, it is inevitable that they will catch the wrong soul! So this judge... is The think tank of the underworld thought of such a method, which is to make a "mark"! There will be some omens on the person whose fate is about to come. Such as "hanging paper money on the ear", "binding the brothers and feet", "locking the neck" Handcuffs' and 'carrying a black coffin'... In short, depending on the age and place, the official 'marks' from the underworld are naturally different... But they come and go, and they are just a few things. But apart from these In addition to the four official 'marks' of the Underworld, there are also the 'paper banners' you have seen - someone cast a curse, and the 'white paper on the face' - plague ghosts are rampant. These do not belong to the Underworld The scope of the management of the underworld is no longer a thing created by evil people and ghosts!"

But in fact, if you really want to dig deeper, it is not difficult to find that the "hands and feet tied with ropes" and "body handcuffs and chains" were props used only in escorting death row prisoners in ancient times.Not to mention the black coffin, white paper, paper money and paper streamers, they are all for the dead.There is some truth in what Zhang Zizhi said, but he just doesn't know whether it is true or not.

However, at this moment, Li Qiubao suddenly remembered that when he was a child, three days before the death of an aunt in the next door, her face was covered with a blank sheet of paper, revealing only her mouth and nose.It made Li Qiucheng very afraid to talk to that aunt during those few days, because he couldn't see his facial features!

Not long after that, the aunt suddenly became ill and passed away.

Now hearing what Zhang Xie said, it seems that the aunt was entangled by the plague ghost, so she died!

Zhang Xie said that he couldn't stop talking: "Omens only appear on people whose death is approaching. There are other people, such as people who die suddenly, and their faces must have a 'disastrous look', which is often said to be 'yintang'." Blackening, a disaster of blood and light'. As for the drowned person, there are 'water lines' on the face, these are not the ways of death stipulated in the "Book of Life and Death"..."
