Chapter 40
dying!dying!What should I do now.

Since Lu Mier entered the room, she has been circling around the table.

What should I do? I really didn't expect Wang to come to visit so early in the morning.

And he ran to open the door as if he was the master of his own house.

You shouldn't, you shouldn't.

What if the king is really angry and rushes him back to the Demon Realm!
Don't go back to Demon Realm, Chen Sheng's injury hasn't recovered yet, if he goes back by himself, then who will take care of him.

And...and...

Lu Mier unconsciously glanced at Chen Sheng, this oriental man felt much better than that annoying Herman.

Why did I like Herman so much in the past? He never liked to talk to me, but I wanted to see him anytime, even if he didn't speak, but I felt satisfied as long as I looked at him by his side.

Now, Lu Mier wondered why she did that. Could it be because Herman was good-looking, so she couldn't help but look at Chen Sheng who was sitting on the bed, looking at her in puzzlement.

In fact, Chen Sheng is really not as good-looking as Herman.

About 27 or [-] years old, with wheat-colored skin, wearing a khaki cloth shirt, and a scarf around his neck that he doesn't wear all year round.

A head of black and thick hair is not tied up with various hostas like the aristocratic sons, but just casually coiled on the head. Under the thick eyebrows, although the eyes are not deep, they are very energetic.

Hmm... Maybe it was because of the injury, his face was a little haggard.

"What are you looking at?" Chen Sheng asked suspiciously when Lu Mier looked at him uncomfortably.

Just now, he was circling around the table anxiously and at a loss, so he suddenly stopped and looked at himself in a daze.

Only then did Lu Mier come back to her senses, she lowered her eyelids and said, "Look at you!"

"Look at me? What's there to see!" Chen Sheng said helplessly.

Sigh... This little girl is really straightforward, saying whatever she wants, not reserved at all.

However, compared to those girls who are twitchy, Chen Sheng found that he likes such girls very much, so he can just say what he wants without having to guess, how nice it is!
"You are not as good-looking as Herman, but I don't know why, I just like to watch it!" Lu Mier said coquettishly.

"..."

Well, it was really direct. Chen Sheng was speechless, so he could only change the subject and ask, "You walked around the table just now when you entered the room, what happened?"

As soon as Lu Mier was reminded by Chen Sheng, Edreyson's stern and stern face appeared in her mind, she couldn't help but shuddered, and said tremblingly, "You know, the one who knocked on the door earlier actually It was Mr. Lei, and when I opened the door, I said, 'Who is so impolite, knocking on the door so rudely in the early morning'."

"It's Mr. Lei? Why is he here!" Chen Sheng was also surprised.

"He came to ask Uncle Zhang to go to Lei Mansion to see a doctor for Yang Ran'er!" Lu Mier explained.

I kept praying in my heart, let the angel's injury get better, and then let my king be too busy to pay attention to me.

But the sky failed to fulfill the wishes of people, and just thinking about it, there was a knock on the door.

Lu Mier and Chen Sheng looked at each other, who could it be? Besides herself, Herman and Xia Yun also followed Uncle Zhang to Lei Mansion.

"Who is it?" Lu Mier asked as she went to open the door.

Then I saw Scotta standing outside the door with a smile on his face.

"You... you... why are you here!" Lu Mier stammered.

Although Scotta's smile looked harmless to humans and animals, it was definitely not a good thing, and he would not be guessed by his misfortune. The king will let him go back to the Demon Realm.

"I came to see you, of course I have something to do!" Scotta said with a smile.

"The king doesn't really want me to go back!" Lu Mier said with a mournful face.

"That's right!" Scotta laughed. No wonder Lu Mier's expression was that she was afraid that she would be driven back, so she smiled and comforted her: "Don't worry, Mr. Lei is not so narrow-minded, and he won't be so narrow-minded." Don't worry about these things if you're bored, it's rare for him to tease you for a while, it scares you!"

"Teasing me!" Lu Mier shouted in disbelief with her eyes wide open, "You mean to tease me with his cold expression?"

Scotta shrugged his shoulders and said disapprovingly, "Why don't you think that? If Mr. Lei wasn't in a good mood to tease you, do you think he would talk to you?"

Previously, Uncle Zhang followed Wang into the house to check on Yang Ran'er's injury, and Herman came to him to complain, not knowing what made Wang unhappy.

And Lu Mier also had a sad face.

Alas... these two people!
Hearing what Scotta said, Lulier immediately breathed a sigh of relief, as long as she didn't let herself go back.

"Then, since I'm not allowed to go back, why are you looking for me!" Lu Mier asked in confusion.

"It must be something to do with you!" Scotta said.

"What's the matter?" Lu Mier asked, she is a little dragonfly elf who has no skills, what else can she do other than pass on the message.

Scotta said sternly: "Young Master Lei wants you to go to Fenghuang Ridge in Xiangzhou immediately to find traces of the seven-leaf phoenix fruit!"

"Phoenix fruit with seven leaves?" Lu Mier asked in confusion.

"Why did you let her go!" Chen Sheng, who was sitting on the bed, asked at the same time.

Scotta looked up into the house, he knew this kid, he was the guard who fought desperately to save Xiahe on Qiantao Mountain, and his skills were not bad.

It seems that it is his credit that Lu Mier did not pester Herman these days.

"Why not?" Scott asked rhetorically.

"Although Xiangzhou is not too far from Luoyang, it still takes a few days' journey. She is a little girl's family, how can she do it!" Chen Sheng lifted the quilt to get out of bed.

Seeing this, Lu Mier rushed over to support Chen Sheng, and after he put on his shoes, she helped him to the round table and sat down.

While supporting Chen Sheng, he said, "I'm fine, don't worry about recuperating well, maybe I'll be back before your injury fully heals."

"That's not okay, you're a girl!" Chen Sheng disagreed, "What do you guys think about Mr. Lei, how can you let a girl do this kind of thing!"

"I don't think there's anything wrong with it!" Lu Mier thought for a while, and comforted her, "I'm good at qinggong, so it's easy to find things!"

Scotta folded his hands on his chest, leaned against the door frame, and watched the two people talking in the room playfully...

"Do you know the way to Xiangzhou? Do you know where Fenghuang Ridge is?" Chen Sheng asked angrily.

Lu Mier shook her head, of course she didn't know, but it doesn't matter, she can find it.

Besides, she can fly!
"Let's not talk about going to Xiangzhou. The Fenghuangling area is full of dense forests that cover the sky. Inside, there are many cliffs, strange peaks and rocks, ravines and ravines, and the canyons are extremely deep. Ordinary people can't get out after entering." Chen Sheng said anxiously , such a place, how could Lu Mier go by herself.

"Wow, there is such a place, then I have to go and have a look!" Lu Mier excitedly said.

"No!" Chen Sheng couldn't help but roared.

Lu Mier was startled, "Why not?"

"Dangerous! Do you know the danger!" Chen Sheng roared in a low voice.

Lu Mier was stunned, she was always in the Demon Realm, like a child who never left home, never knew what the danger was.

On Austin's order before, I came to the east to deliver a message to the king, and I found this place alone after going through hardships along the way.

It seems that no one told me to be careful all the way before I came, and no one cared about me after I arrived, and Herman even avoided him like the plague.

Chen Sheng's roar made his eyes moist inexplicably. It turns out that this is what it feels like to be cared about.

"But..." Lu Mier looked at Scotta with some embarrassment, and said, "I must complete what Mr. Lei ordered!"

"There's no room for negotiation?" Chen Sheng also looked up at Scotta.

Scotta shrugged without saying a word.

Lu Mier bit her lips and shook her head. She didn't know how to comfort Chen Sheng. This matter was a trivial matter to herself, but she couldn't explain it and couldn't make Chen Sheng not worry about herself.

"Okay then, I'll go and ask Uncle Zhang to let me go with you!" Chen Sheng stood up and decided.

"What!" Lu Mier exclaimed in surprise.

Even Scotta was taken aback, he didn't expect Chen Sheng to act like this.

"Uncle Zhang will definitely agree!" Chen Sheng explained, "Although I don't know what a seven-leaf phoenix fruit is, I know it's extraordinary just by the name. It must be Uncle Zhang who went looking for it to heal Miss Yang. The miracle medicine used. Then I should help to find it together, after all, one more person is more powerful."

What Chen Sheng said was well-founded, and Lu Mier thought for a while before finding a reason for her refusal, "But your injury hasn't healed yet!"

If Chen Sheng was by my side, I would definitely like it, but with him, I couldn't transform back into a little dragonfly and fly away.

If you use your mortal appearance to find it, it seems that it will be much more difficult.

"My injury is no longer a hindrance!" Chen Sheng said before going to find Uncle Zhang.

"This... this..." Lu Mier followed behind anxiously, not knowing what to say.

"I think it's okay if you have a companion!" Scotta laughed.

"You..." Lu Mier glared at Scotta, her meaning was very clear, she would be in a lot of trouble with Chen Sheng around.

Scotta spread his hands, unable to help and said: "This is your business."

"Really!" Lu Mier cast a grievous glance at Scotta, feeling all sorts of emotions in her heart.

Then trotted a few steps to catch up with Chen Sheng and held his arm.

He lowered his head, but couldn't help but smile sweetly...

……

"what's going on!"

Xia Yun looked in disbelief at a group of servants at home, all wearing white robes, holding things that were only used for sacrifices in their hands, walking towards the back mountain outside the west gate.

"Miss, you are back. The old lady asked about you before, but the young master told you to stay at your cousin's house for a few days. Why did you come back so soon?" Aunt Gui who was beside the old lady saw Xia When Yun came back, he leaned over and said.

Xia Yun didn't answer, pointing directly at the group of people and asked, "What's going on with them?"

"They, they were picked out by the second master to prepare for tonight's ceremony!" Aunt Gui replied.

"What ritual?" Xia Yun was still at a loss.

"It is said that it is for Uncle Zhang!" Aunt Gui is not too clear.

"Ah?" Xia Yun was shocked. Who came up with this idea? My brother didn't stop me anyway. Uncle Zhang is still alive, what kind of soul is it.

Xia Yun hurriedly said to Aunt Gui: "Aunt Gui, go ahead, I'll go find my brother!" After speaking, he took Herman to Xiahe's study together.

"What is summoning souls?" Herman asked inexplicably, looking at the strange battle, completely confused about what to do.

"It's to bring back the souls of the dead!" Xia Yun roughly explained.

Herman was puzzled and said: "After death, isn't the soul escaped into reincarnation and reincarnated? Can this be brought back? Besides, people and ghosts have different paths, so what if they are called back? You can't see each other?" Erman is very incomprehensible

Xia Yun gave Herman a white look, and said, "What do you mean you can't see each other? It's as if you can see each other."

Herman smiled faintly, and said in his heart: "If I want to, I can really see it!"

Seeing that Herman didn't say a word, Xia Yun didn't take it seriously and continued: "Those powerful witches, monks and masters can indeed see things that we can't see, and it is said that the rituals they do are also very effective. It is to recruit the souls of those who died in foreign lands, and they can be reincarnated smoothly after they are recruited by doing things, and there are some people who died in vain, and their souls are recruited to understand their grievances and grievances in the world, so that they can enter reincarnation with peace of mind."

Xia Yun explained that he couldn't help laughing, "Our Xia family has always kept a respectful distance from this kind of gods and ghosts. I have only heard of such rituals as summoning souls, but I have never seen it with my own eyes. This is Who came up with the idea, summon Uncle Zhang's soul!"

Herman listened silently and did not speak, but he admired him very much in his heart. No wonder Scotta said that there are many strange people in the East.

Not only are there many strange people and talents, but they can also have such a miraculous operation.

It seems that today can be an eye-opener!

Just thinking about it, I saw Xia He walking this way.

After Xia Yun saw it, he trotted over and shouted happily: "Brother, brother, I'm back!"

Xia He greeted him with a smile, patted Xia Yun's head and said, "Why are you back!" Looking at Xia Yun's appearance, nothing should have happened there.

"I have something to discuss with brother when I come back!" Xia Yun said, and then asked puzzledly: "But brother, what's the situation with this summoning!"

Xia He sighed helplessly: "No, Uncle Zhang's body has not been found for so long, and Uncle also came up with a solution out of desperation!"

"But!"

Xia Yun wanted to say something but was interrupted by Xia He, "Don't worry, you came back just in time, go to the back mountain with me, if there is anything else, we will talk about it after finishing the ceremony!"

"All right……"

……

For this spirit-calling ceremony, "five directions and five positions" need to be set up, so according to the requirements of the master, five tables were placed in the east, south, west, north and middle five directions on a spacious and flat open space in the back mountain.

On the table, there are respectively set up the thrones of the Qing Emperor in the East, the throne of the Red Emperor in the South, the place of the God in the West, the throne in the West, the place in the North for the Wisdom and Virtue, and the place in the center for the Yellow Emperor in Faith and Virtue.

And put incense, rice, wine, tea and fruit cakes in front of the altar.

Then set up a tile on the field in front of the god to represent hell.

……

Xia Yun watched dizzily as the skilled man instructed the group of white-clothed servants to finish setting up the venue, and then led them to perform shift ceremonies, washing ceremonies, incense ceremonies, libation ceremonies, etc.

It took more than two hours to complete these preparations back and forth.

At this time, the sun had already set and the night was dark. Although the oil lamps around were protected from the wind, they flickered flickeringly.

I don't know if it's because of the cold autumn leaves or something else, but Xia Yun couldn't help but feel chills, feeling the hairs all over his body stand on end.

I saw that the master of practice set up a three-foot-high flag in front of the field, and then held a mahogany sword and chanted:
Wandering souls, where to keep them, the three souls descended early, the spirit comes, the riverside fields, temples and villages, palace prisons, tombs and forests, false alarms and strange, lost true souls, I invite the mountain gods, the gods of the five paths of travel, I Entering the job, searching deliberately, collecting the soul to possess, helping the spirit, the gate of heaven opens, the gate of the earth opens, the boy from thousands of miles sends the soul, Zhang Yanqing—the soul returns!
……

But at this moment, Uncle Zhang, who was carrying the oil pot and lighting the seven-star lamp for Ran'er, suddenly felt dizzy and unsteady on his feet...
