Chapter 17: Zhengchen's Haunted Mansion (II)

In the Taiji Lake Courtyard, Song Zheng sent Ban Gongxie away, and quietly appeared alone on a barren mountain outside the city.

This is one of several mass graves in Huzhou City. In the night, there were several lonely graves, wild dogs wailed, and even some corpses were thrown in the ravines without being buried, which had rotted and exposed white bones, which was indescribably terrifying.

Song Zheng took a look at it, and behind several graves, there were indeed a few lonely ghosts hidden, but their strength was too low to be suitable.

These lonely ghosts didn't know why they were afraid to hide, but when "that person" approached, they instinctively trembled with fear and subconsciously hid.

Song Zheng held on to the hope of what happened, looked for it carefully, shook his head and left.

A barren mountain, there really is no powerful Yin Spirit.

He wanted to go back and ask Chen Baihu, but after thinking about it, it was not appropriate for his subordinates to know about this kind of thing, so he temporarily turned to Huzhou City.

The city gate was closed, but it was difficult for Song Zheng to be alone, and he had a way to get in.

He found the inn where he lived before, and sure enough, they still lived here on the Xiuzhi Festival.

When I opened the door in the middle of the night and saw Song Zheng, Xiuzhijie shuddered: "Song ...... Lord Song. ”

In the rooms on both sides, the monks who lived in the family also opened the door and said in surprise: "Lord Song, why are you here?" After speaking, he felt offended, and hurriedly slapped himself: "Look at my stinky mouth." ”

Song Zheng quietly signaled not to alarm the Hou Xiaonian brothers and sisters not far away. He pointed to the room, "Go in and talk." ”

He is not blind, Hou Xiaobai has a good impression of him, he knows, but there are still people waiting for him in Huangtai Fort, and he firmly and without hesitation chooses Huangtai Fort.

Xiuzhijie didn't know what his purpose was, and he seemed a little uneasy, but the rest of the Xiu family was very excited, and the distinguished guests came to the door to entertain them warmly.

Xiuzhijie couldn't stand the flattery of his subordinates, so he simply asked, "Song Qianhu came to visit late at night, there should be something wrong, right?"

Song Zheng nodded: "I don't have any acquaintances in Huzhou City, so I want to ask you, is there any place in this city where unjust souls gather?"

Xiuzhijie was suspicious for a while: What are you doing in this kind of place? He was about to ask, but was secretly pulled by Uncle Fang. The identity is different, and thousands of households come to you for help to give you face, and ask the east and the west to make the big man unhappy.

Uncle Fang replied for him: "I know about this matter, I have a relative in Huzhou City, so the family chose me to accompany the young master." ”

After a pause, he continued: "The place that the adults want to ask should be that Zhengchen ghost mansion."

That was still the previous commander Zhou Rongmin's era, not long after the Son of Heaven ascended the throne, the household servant Lang Yutai Zhirong played a chapter, even counting the nine major crimes of the Son of Heaven, asking the Son of Heaven to be himself and punish the traitorous ministers, the first of which was Lord Zhou Rongmin.

The emperor was immediately furious, and the dragon Yiwei took into custody of the Zhirong of the Tai, and raided the house and destroyed the door.

At that time, Zhou Rongmin turned the case into an iron case, punished the three clans, and the Shantai family was almost wiped out in Huzhou City.

In the following ten years, the old mansion of the Tantai family was often haunted, and no one dared to take over the old house, and gradually became a famous ghost house in Huzhou City. ”

Uncle Fang was worried about Long Yiwei's face, so the whole thing was very simple. Even the name "Zhengchen Ghost House" circulated among the people in Huzhou was only blurted out at the beginning, and then never said it again.

The actual situation is that when today's son ascended the throne, he showed his true colors as a faint king, favored traitorous ministers, recruited a few new concubines and nobles, and messed around in the dark all day long. Zhirong was the first to stand up and want to wake up the emperor. As a result, the Son of Heaven was furious, and Zhou Rongmin, a loyal dog, carried out His Majesty's orders very solidly.

Hundreds of people were killed. The people are indignant, and every year thousands of people take the initiative to go to the old house to pay tribute to the Zhirong of the old house, where the incense is vigorous, like a temple.

With the protection of the people's faith, these unjust souls hiding in the old mansion have gradually become the climate. However, they still uphold the family motto of the Tantai family, and they will never harm the world if they don't go out of the door.

As for why Lian Zhan didn't go, I'm afraid it's because I'm unwilling and wants to see the fate of the faint gentleman with my own eyes.

In fact, Uncle Fang didn't have to worry about Song Zheng's face, Zhou Rongmin's final fate was very miserable - he committed suicide - he was pulled off the horse by Xiao Zhen.

Xiao Zhen took charge of Long Yiwei after Zhou Rongmin and became a generation of powerful ministers.

Song Zheng nodded: "Please also tell me the location of this ghost mansion." ”

Uncle Fang drew a map for him, Song Zheng took the map and left, and when he arrived at the door, he suddenly called Xiuzhijie over: "I remember that you came here this time for the business of lake rice?"

Xiuzhi was stunned for a moment, and Uncle Fang's heart was raised, and he said in his heart, young master, don't play stubborn. He thought about it too much, and Xiuzhijie was entangled in his sweetheart's good impression of Song Zheng, but when Song Zheng obviously wanted to succeed in his business, the temperament he had thought about before, such as "not bending his waist for five buckets of rice", was suddenly deflated.

The resistance in his heart was weak, and he replied very obediently, "Yes." ”

"How much do you want?" to Song Zheng, this was nothing.

"Fifty pounds is enough. He replied with caution.

Song Zheng was surprised: "Fifty catties, is it enough?" In this way, you go back and find Chen Baihu and give you one hundred and sixty catties." He advised: "You and the Hou family each have eighty catties." ”

"Thank you for your kindness!" Uncle Fang was overjoyed, but Xiuzhijie thought that he was still thinking about Hou Xiaobai, and his heart was awkward, but it was still the same sentence, he couldn't resist such a huge benefit, and he also bowed down: "Lord Xie." ”

Song Zheng waved his hand, and his figure disappeared into the night.

He and Hou Xiaobai will not see each other again.

......

Taiji Lake claims that the annual output of lake rice is only 1,000 catties, but in fact, this is sold to the DPRK, and the total output is about 3,000 catties. Leopard Taowei has about 800 catties in his hand, and Song Zheng has the largest share as a thousand households, totaling 400 catties.

And the monks don't eat the lake rice like mortals eat rice—if that's the case, the Heaven and Earth Yuan energy contained in the lake rice will definitely not be completely absorbed—everyone eats a few grains, and a pound of lake rice is enough for the monks to eat for several months.

Song Zheng came out of the inn and quickly found a deserted alley according to the map. He rose in the air, looked down from a high place, the "Zhengchen Ghost Mansion" of the Tangtai family and the surrounding area were distinct, and the gloomy ghost spirit was bounded by the wall of the old house, and it did not escape at all, and it would never have any bad impact on the surrounding neighbors.

Song Zheng nodded, and the secret path was indeed after the loyal minister.

He searched for Yin Souls because he wanted to use the methods of the Hall of Annihilation and the Divine and Demon Dao to further refine them, and get a powerful Yin Ghost to go deep into the Yin Eye to check the situation.

There are all kinds of "messes" under the Yangyan water, and he doesn't believe that there are no moths on the other side of the Yinyan.

He went to ask the Immortal Refining Sect to help create a spider puppet, in addition to wanting to prove his guess, another important purpose was to attract the attention of those dark forces to the Yang Eye, and he secretly made a move to quietly probe the Yin Eye.

He landed in mid-air at the door of the old mansion of the Tantai family. The two vermilion gates were closed, revealing a kind of darkness because of the years of gloom.

There is a bronze square furnace in the open space in front of the door, and there is still a lot of incense in it that has not yet been burned.

The floor is clean and looks like it's being cleaned regularly.

Song Zheng went to an incense candle shop on the way, took three handfuls of incense and two candles, and left silver. At this time, the candle was lit, and then the incense was lit to worship in the distance.

Crunch –

In the silence of the night, there was a sudden screeching sound of the door opening, and the two dark red doors slowly opened a crack, and a ghost floated out of the narrow crack.

His face was pale, he was about thirty years old before he died, and as soon as he stretched out his hand towards Song Zheng, a layer of invisible power shrouded the incense burner, and this handful of incense could not be inserted.

"Your Excellency is a member of Long Yiwei, and our Tantai family can't afford it!" his voice was indifferent, with a chill that rejected people thousands of miles away.

Song Zheng held up the incense: "I have something to ask for here." The Qingbai ghost just showed a hint of sarcasm on his face, but was interrupted by Song Zheng's next words: "I'm here to help you rest in peace." ”

"Rest in peace?" the green and white ghost was indignant: "My father has been loyal and conscientious all his life, and he only thinks about serving the court. But the saint is mediocre, and he can't listen to the advice of the contrary, but he kills my Shantai clan all over the house, and throws his blood into the air, how can I rest in this world?"

Song Zheng knew that these unjust souls could survive in the world, and they must have obsessions.

"Then what do you want to do with the Zhengchen ghost mansion all the time?"

The green and white ghost gritted his teeth and said: "We have already seen the fate of Zhou Rongmin's traitor, and now we only want to see the fate of the faint monarch - if the way of heaven is fair, you can dissipate between heaven and earth with peace of mind." ”

Song Zheng shook his head: "You are willing, but there are still dozens of young children in the house, they could have entered reincarnation, and they still have the thoughts of the next life, do they want to accompany you to dissipate between heaven and earth?"

The green and white ghosts are speechless, and they can't speak.

After all, he is a family heirloom of poetry and books, and he has compassion in his heart, and he can't do that kind of real ghost thing.

Song Zheng said again: "I have a way to lead to the Netherworld, and I have an old relationship with the Netherworld.

Not only can you be sent into the netherworld, but you can also entrust the ghosts and Yama to take care of you, and under the netherworld, you don't have to be punished for bonding to the yang world, get rid of your sins, and you can also be reincarnated. ”

The green and white ghost was obviously moved, but the obsession was hard to dispel, and he shook his head lightly and said: "The kindness of the adults has been received, but we can't see the fate of the faint king, and it is difficult to reincarnate." ”

Song Zheng said lightly: "This is about to talk about the matter of me asking you for help." If you do this for me, you may see the fate of the faint king. ”

Why was Helian Lie forced to commit suicide? Song Zheng could never forgive that faint king.

When he saw the real dragon in the Yang Eye, he had already vaguely guessed the inside story, and asked the Qingbai Ghost to help him probe the Yin Eye, in order to further confirm his guess.
