I'm taking the imperial examinations in Liaozhai

The sun slowly climbed into the sky, and through the open window, it sunned on the buttocks of some little piggies who were sleeping late.

Ning Caichen yawned, rubbed half of his face that was hot from the sun, stretched his waist, opened his eyes and looked at the strange scene in front of him, and was momentarily stunned.Then he woke up suddenly, almost jumped up from the bed, and shouted, "Cousin! Cousin! Cousin!"

"Here we come, we come!" Ji Zihe heard the sound, and hurried over and pushed open the door.

"Are you okay, I didn't see you when I opened my eyes, I thought you were eaten by a ghost." Ning Caichen jumped off the bed with bare feet, put his hands on Ji Zihe's armpits and lifted him up .

"Cousin, don't be afraid, I have chased away all the ghosts." Ji Zihe patted Ning Caichen on the shoulder very understandingly.

"What, I'm afraid, I'm afraid of ghosts, what a joke. If I hadn't been accidentally attacked yesterday, I would have hit him ten times head-on!" Ning Caichen put Ji Zihe on the ground, his face full of arrogance.

"I don't know who saw me yesterday and screamed like a pig." The bone floated by Ji Zihe's side, making up the knife slowly.

Ji Zihe tried his best to suppress the corners of his mouth that he wanted to raise, alas, my lord, you must save him some face.Don't tell if you see through, don't tell if you see through.

Ning Caichen probably also felt that he was acting too much at this moment, coughed awkwardly, and tried to change the subject, "Cousin, did you catch that ghost last night, how did you deal with it?"

"I caught it." Ji Zihe took out the sword bag, "Yesterday I took out the sword bag, and the sword bag saw a ghost, and it suddenly became very big. Then stretched out a pair of ghost claws from the sword bag, and immediately took the sword bag. The ghost was dragged into the sword bag. After a while, the sword bag returned to its original shape, and I opened it to see that there was nothing inside."

Ning Caichen brought the sword bag over, hesitated for a moment, then tore it open, and looked inside.The sword bag was dirty, and I don't know how much dirt was stuck on it, and it exuded a strange smell.Ning Caichen only took a few glances to make sure there was nothing inside, then quickly closed it and returned it to Ji Zihe.

"By the way, that demon fox?" Ning Caichen asked again.

"It was also driven away by me. I believe it will never dare to come back."

"That's great."

"Cousin, since it's all right, let's pack up and go home."

"Well, then let's go and bid farewell to Magistrate Lu."

"Um, this, I think, he probably won't want to see us." Ji Zihe scratched his cheek and said.

Today, when County Magistrate Lu came back from the county government office, he heard the news that the demon fox had been chased away. Before he could be happy, Ji Zihe came to buy one and get one free, and found a monster from his mansion.As soon as he heard that the person he had slept with for so long was actually a monster, County Magistrate Lu couldn't hold back his face on the spot. If his children and the porter who guarded the gate hadn't testified, he would have beaten Ji Zihe with a stick Go out and tell him not to talk nonsense again.

Of course, there were too many witnesses, and even if he wanted to deny it, he couldn't deny it. Magistrate Lu had to admit this stain, but he didn't want to see Ji Zihe who discovered it again. Who made Ji Zihe feel ashamed.

When Ning Caichen and Ji Zihe went to bid farewell, the magistrate Lu did not see them, saying that he was suddenly ill and could not see the guests, but asked Lu Yaoxian and his brother to send a hundred taels of gold as a thank you gift, and then let people Send them back to the temple.

Ning Caichen and Ji Zihe went to bid farewell to the landlord Zhang Yudan, Zhang Yudan took them to the restaurant, and found friends from the city to practice for them.He said it was a practice, but Ji Zihe looked more and more like a gathering of literati, and he had practiced it too many times, and there were new faces every time he went back, so he let the two stay in Zhaoyuan County for a few days before leaving go home.

Zhaoyuan County is a large county. Baihe Town, where Ji Zihe lives, is more than 100 miles away from Zhaoyuan County. When they came, they even took a donkey cart and walked for more than three days.But now it's different, Ning Caichen has also become a member of the horse family. According to the speed of this horse, Ji Zihe feels that they will be able to run to Baihe Town in less than two days.

It's just that the horse is good everywhere, but the butt hurts after sitting for a long time.

The sky was getting dark, they were walking to the barren mountain, and there was no wild shop in the surrounding area, so they had to find a dilapidated mountain temple for the night.

After entering the temple, I found that someone in the temple had already arrived first.Sitting on a wooden reclining chair is a gentleman with a jade face, holding a scroll of bamboo slips and watching.Beside him were four strong men, all of whom should be his servants, busy boiling water and making tea for him, beating his legs and shoulders, they were obviously so big, but the movements of their hands did not look clumsy at all.

Seeing this man enjoying himself so much, the two of them stopped thinking about going up to say hello, and it seemed that they were not from the same world.Anyway, this hall is not small, the two of them led the horse in and found a corner to stay.Anyway, it's just one night. If everyone's well water doesn't violate the river water, there shouldn't be any problems.

Ning Caichen found some dry firewood and lit a fire, took out pancakes for Ji Zihe to bake first, and went out by himself to find some rations for the horses that had carried them all the way.

The pancakes were made by Luo Feng before he left. They were filled with delicious meat stuffing, and his mouth was full of oil when he bit into them.It is said that poor families get rich, and this is not true at all.Ji Zihe didn't eat meat every day at home, but when he went out to take an exam, Ning Caichen didn't care about the money, he was afraid that he wouldn't eat well, so he fed him delicious food in different ways every day, Gained a few pounds after going out for two months.

Ji Zihe baked the pancakes on the unburned wood of the fire, and the fragrance radiated out after a while.Ji Zihe sat on the side, and when one side was hot, he turned them over.

"It's delicious, is it delicious?" Gu Gu, who was squatting beside Ji Zihe, stared at the meatloaf without blinking.

"Of course it's delicious. Luo Feng's cooking skills are very good. I think he could be a chef in a restaurant." Ji Zihe said.

Bones licked his lips, "Is it really delicious?"

Ji Zihe finally understood what he meant, "You're hungry too, I brought you a joss stick, do you want to eat?"

"I don't want to eat joss sticks anymore, I also want to eat meat."

"No matter how you eat it, I can't set an altar for you now, otherwise my cousin will definitely teach me a lesson when he comes back."

The old ghost said that human food is a product of the underworld, and ghosts have already returned to the underworld, so ghosts cannot eat human food directly, even if they appear in their own form.

Gu Gu tried his best to move his eyes away from the food, and said pitifully, "I don't have to eat it, you can just eat yours, don't worry about me."

Ji Zihe's face was full of black lines, his little eyes, his little expressions, everywhere said that you can't leave me alone.Ji Zihe was thinking about how to feed the bones, but the noble young master over there came over and bowed to them.

"Meeting is fate. The two brothers, Yang Tingsu in Shanxi, can we make friends?"

two?Ji Zihe looked at Bones in doubt, and Gu Gu looked at Yang Tingsu in the same doubt.This person doesn't look like a cultivator or a monster, so why does he feel a dangerous aura from him?

"I am born to understand ghosts and serve ghosts, and my four servants are ghosts." Yang Tingsu said without hesitation as if he saw the confusion of one person and one ghost.

It turned out that this person had yin and yang eyes just like himself, and Ji Zihe's affection for this noble young master immediately rose, and he saluted back, "Brother Yang, next time Ji Zihe, he is a bone, we both have It's a local household registration."

"Brother Ji, can I ask you a question?" Yang Tingsu asked.

"of course can."

"Can you tell me where the relic on your neck came from?"
