Becoming a fox fairy from Liaozhai

Chapter 120

Foxes carry lanterns, foxes wave flags.

The scattered lights formed a long dragon, and then dispersed into fireflies.

Soul-inducing lamps fluttered in the darkness, the fox either turned into a human form, or maintained its original form, walking all the way, wagging its tail all the way, singing a spirit song, and gradually went away.

Kang Yunu also went down the mountain.

According to Gong Mengbi's instructions, if there is a familiar territory, then go to the familiar territory first, if there are no other foxes in the surrounding villages and mountains, then focus on the familiar territory and go to other places to patrol. Come.

There is no Zhao Yuniang in Zhaojiazhuang, but after all, it is the place where Kang Yunu lived for a long time, and that is where Kang Yunu went first.

When you come to Zhaojiazhuang again, it will be barren and uninhabited.

After the crops in the field were submerged, even if the water receded, the crops fell to the ground, yellowed by retting, rotten by burnt, and exuded an unpleasant rotten smell.

The rancid smell was everywhere, mixed with the disgusting smell of water, which suffocated the fox with a keen sense of smell.

Kang Yunu strung a bunch of yellow cypress leaves with silk threads and put them between the mouth and nose like wearing a gauze scarf, using the fresh air of the yellow cypress to dispel the bad smell.

After walking a few steps in Zhaojiazhuang, I saw a floating corpse turned up in the field.

It looked like an old man, maybe fell or slipped, fell into the field and never got up again.

The floating corpse was already swollen with soaking, and Kang Yunu felt filthy in his heart, but he followed Gong Mengbi's instructions and buried the corpse for safety.

Shake the soul-inducing lamp, wave the soul-calling banner, "Calling the soul--"

She saw a confused old man standing behind her with his small eyes open, and asked curiously, "Girl, are you calling me?"

Kang Yunu smiled, but didn't answer. The soul-leading lamp opened the way, and the soul-calling flag gathered the soul. The old man was confused and chaotic, so he stepped on the straw sandals and followed Kang Yunu, chattering as he walked.

"Daughter, be careful when you go out at night, my little girl is never seen at night."

"The girl is so beautiful, are you married?"

"Watch the road carefully, don't fall, the old man fell that day, and now his back still hurts."

Kang Yunu just pretended he didn't hear it, and let the old man babble all the way, only occasionally huh-hmm in agreement, the old man also came and went in a cloud, and his words didn't match up.

After walking a few more steps, I saw a little girl squatting under the tree.

The little girl buried her head in her arms, revealing two shock braids, wet with water marks.

Kang Yunu raised the lamp to shine on it, and the little girl looked up at her, like a frightened deer, and suddenly burst into tears: "My mother doesn't want me anymore..."

"She left with her brother in her arms. I can't catch up...she doesn't want me anymore..."

There were tears on the little girl's face, and she was trembling all over. She didn't know if it was cold, hungry, scared, or both.

Kang Yunu was full of pity, and he waved the soul-calling flag, and said, "My mother doesn't want you anymore, so can you go with my sister?"

The little girl's eyes were full of tears, her body was wet, she looked at Kang Yunu timidly, and said, "Will my sister not want me?"

Kang Yunu was about to answer when the bewildered old man suddenly stepped forward and grabbed the little girl's hand, pulled her up, and said, "Poor little boy, I was so big when I left. How scared are you to be alone at night?" Ah, come, join the old man."

The little girl turned her eyes to the bewildered old man and asked, "Will grandpa abandon me?"

The old man pulled her, seemed to wake up again, and said: "No, let's go with Grandpa and go where we need to go."

The little girl followed behind the old man step by step. After she stood up, behind her was a thick ghostly aura as thick as a snake's tail, constantly swaying with the wind.

Kang Yunu broke into a cold sweat for a moment.

Then she remembered that when she left, Gong Mengbi had told her to only use soul-inducing lamps and banners to attract lonely souls, and if you encounter someone who is not attracted, just pretend you didn't see them, and don't talk to them lightly.

After the flood receded, evil spirits and evil spirits abounded.

No one knows whether those poor soulless souls will turn into terrible ghosts because of their resentment and unwillingness.

If she hadn't obeyed Gong Mengbi's instruction and contained the old man's corpse, and had this bewildered old man help her, she would have been entangled by this poor little girl.

Although Kang Yunu was full of pity for her, she was unwilling to sacrifice herself because of this.

Good luck.

Kang Yunu continued to move forward holding the soul lamp, and the fire illuminated Zhaojiazhuang in the dark night, attracting many lonely souls who had no owner, like moths to the flame, following in the veterans behind Kang Yunu.

When Kang Yunu looked back, he could see strange faces. They were different faces of death.

But in the eyes of others, there is only a beautiful woman walking in the countryside holding a green lantern and a small white flag. Behind her is a thick gray fog that cannot be seen clearly.

There are still living people in Zhaojiazhuang.

Only rarely, those who did not flee to the county seat, but took refuge in high places returned here after the flood receded.

But the ruined houses and sparsely populated places have brought great fear to people.

Kang Yunu sang a song calling for souls, which sounded like a bird's song, like a fox's call, with a treacherous and frightening power.

These people heard the evocative song and hid in the house trembling.

Kang Yunu saw it, and warned outside the door: "The Jiacao is precious, and I can entrust the rest of my body. The Jiacao is smoked and burned, and it can subdue the god of disease."

Just leave the branches and leaves of Jiacao, and then continue walking with the fog behind.

"Blessed by Mount Tai, the soul is crossed in Artemisia."

"Call the soul, call the soul."

Kang Yunu traveled all over Zhaojiazhuang overnight, went to Xiaosheng Township, Baixi Village where Kang Wen lived, and Xixia Village where Goddess Ma lived.

There is nothing new about other things, only Xiaosheng Township, the villagers hid on the mountain to escape the flood, and there is almost no damage. Now production has begun to resume, and it seems to have regained its vitality.

Kang Yunu came back with thick clouds billowing behind him, and reported the matter to Gong Mengbi. Gong Mengbi said, "Little Saint Township was sheltered by a friend of mine, so it escaped unharmed. However, the ghosts you brought , but there is still an old ghost hiding."

Gong Mengbi looked at the lonely soul in the mist behind Kang Yunu, and when he told him that he was hiding something, a bewildered old man came out of it.

The old man looked at Gong Mengbi, his eyes gradually cleared up, he sighed, and said: "It turns out that it was the fox fairy who summoned the soul to extradite him, and his merits are immeasurable."

Gong Mengbi said: "Don't dare, you are a god of Taoism, but you don't know why you have fallen to this point?"

The old man showed a sour smile: "What kind of Taoist god is just an old ghost on the side of the road relying on living sacrifices to survive."

"When the flood came, the old man showed them the direction and escorted them away, but the water flooded the road, and the old man was caught by the water ghost, and he was trapped in the water and never came out. It is still thanks to the kindness of the fox girl, for me Only by restraining the remnant body can I be freed."

"In a daze, following the soul lamp all the way here, it's not intentional to deceive."

Gong Mengbi comforted him: "All hardships are rewarded, and the merits are immeasurable."

The old man glanced at Gong Mengbi, bent down and said: "If the fox fairy allows, let the old man be at peace from now on."

"The old man was born stupid, and he was also stupid when he died on the road. He missed the time for the ghost to summon his soul, and he stayed in the world."

"It's rare to be clean, and it's hard to enjoy peace. Now it can be regarded as a repayment of the sacrifice. If the fox fairy rescues me, I will be grateful."

Gong Mengbi didn't dare to accept the gift, and said, "Please."

Gong Mengbi burned incense and prayed, and opened the gate of Haoli again through the three gods.

One by one, the lonely ghosts passed through the smoke of gods and entered Artemisia smoothly.

The little girl who couldn't get rid of her resentment was echoed by Empress Taishan, and she also held the old man's hand and disappeared bouncingly.

Liang Ji was watching Gong Mengbi extradite the lonely soul, watching him attract the bright moon and cleanse the grudges.

Kang Yunu's feet were fast, and he rushed all the way back without stopping. The other foxes might have to hang around for a while.

In addition to extraditing the souls of the dead, Gong Mengbi also enjoys the moon with Liang Ji.

Liang Ji also played the role of singing and music in the ceremony of setting up a sacrifice and repairing the temple. With the blessing of the three gods, the ghost's body gradually solidified, and it looked a bit like a stranger.

This is a good thing.

The bright moon in the clear sky is very bright, especially after days of cloudy rain, it is as transparent as a beautiful jade.

Gong Mengbi attracted the moonlight again, and the small ashram in Huliupo was really a beautiful scene.

Liang Ji watched the moon with him and also watched him worship the moon.

Of course, this is not the timing and artistic conception of a tryst, but more like like-minded friends, while busy, while facing the bright moon with a lot of emotion.

Liang Ji originally thought that she would be unwilling, but in fact she was not unwilling at all, on the contrary, she was very down-to-earth.

She has been dependent and controlled by others for a long time. Although she wants to find a beloved man she can entrust to, what she wants more is freedom and respect.

She gradually realized that she was not in love with Gong Mengbi, but that she felt valued and respected when she was with Gong Mengbi.

This feeling is more practical and precious than love.

Gong Mengbi felt her mood change, and he settled down.

Gong Mengbi has formed ties with others, and practiced the method of worshiping the moon and the method of heart fire. It can be said that he has a strong sense of fate, so he pays special attention to marriage.

Marriage is a thing, if you can't let each other make progress, then you can only wear each other down and sink.

Gong Mengbi is well aware of her own charm, if she doesn't deal with it well, she will easily fall into all kinds of love disasters - this is the most fatal disaster for a fox.

To some extent, this is the disadvantage and backlash of the practice of karma.

Sensing the change of fate and the change of Liangji's mind, Gong Mengbi was not surprised. A person who is proficient in forming fate also knows how to separate fate, and also knows how to create evil fate.

The dojo on Fox Slope was arranged for seven days in a row before the extradition of the lonely ghosts who died due to floods was completed.Although people will die all the time in the future, they will only continue one after another, and there will not be as many as this time.

There were also many twists and turns, for example, some foxes didn't listen to the warning, or didn't understand Gong Mengbi's instructions, and were entangled by ghosts, chased them all the way, and fled back to Fox Slope.

It was Gong Mengbi who personally subdued the ghost and forcibly escorted him to the underworld.

On the seventh day, as the foxes returned to the mountain one after another, more and more ghosts were extradited into Haoli.

But there are also two uninvited guests who came to Fox Slope with the fox.

The one who was followed was Kang Wen, who came from the county seat.

Because the county seat is closer, more refugees gather, and ghosts appear every day.

So Gong Mengbi asked Kang Wen to be responsible for the extradition of the ghosts in the county, and Goddess Arima was her assistant.

Originally, these two people were like fire and water, but Kang Wen couldn't bear to embarrass him. Madam Ma was actually a good person, so the relationship improved even faster.

There were no problems in the past few days, but today when Kang Wen returned to Huhupo with a few ghosts, two people followed her, but she didn't notice it at all.

These two people could hide from Kang Wen, but they couldn't hide from Gong Mengbi's perception.

Gong Mengbi first extradited these ghosts, and then broke their Xingzang directly.

"You two have seen enough? Can you come forward and say something?"

Hearing what Gong Mengbi said, he walked out of the forest, a monk and a monk.

The monk was dressed in cassock, with a blissful face, a kind smile, and narrowed eyes.

The Taoist is wearing a Taoist robe, with a thin face, a fairy-like demeanor, and bright eyes, like a child.

Gong Mengbi recognized these two people, and said with a smile, "So it's Daoist Yao and Chan Master Faming."

Daoist Yao asked curiously, "You know us?"

Gong Mengbi smiled: "The host of Taiqing Temple and the eminent monks of Huaguang Temple are all masters of Taoism, no matter how ignorant and ignorant I am, I must have heard of the two names."

Chan Master Faming smiled and said, "You know us, but we don't know you. I don't know where the fox fairy came from?"

In the eyes of Daoist Yao and Zen Master Faming, the fox fairy in front of him had a pure and spiritual aura, with a moonlight appearance. Although he looked a bit monster, his aura was righteous.

Gong Mengbi said: "It's my fault, I forgot to report my family name. I am a student of Tianhu Academy, and by the order of Tianhu Academy, I am appointed as the Wuning County Fox Association, and I am in charge of Wuning County Fox Affairs."

"So it's the fox fairy from the Tianhu Academy," Daoist Yao suddenly realized, "I heard from my apprentice that a fox fairy came to visit, so it must be you."

Gong Mengbi nodded: "When I first took office, I wanted to visit you two and make friends. But I heard that you were invited by the King of Wu to Zhoucheng to attend the Water and Land Ceremony, so I had no choice but to come back first."

"Now that you are coming to visit, it must be that the water and land conference has been completed."

Taoist Yao sighed: "That's right, otherwise I wouldn't know that such a big thing happened in Wuning County."

Speaking of this, Gong Mengbi looked concerned, and agreed: "First it was the floods, then the people overthrew the statues of the City God, burned down the Temple of the City God, and the yin and yang became unbalanced, and no one extradited the souls of the dead."

"The two of you are not here, and now the hostility is rampant and the malice is endless. I am afraid that something will happen to the dead soul, so I have to set up a dojo here for extradition."

Chan Master Faming said: "We just saw a fox lighting a lamp and shaking the banner at night to call out the soul. We were afraid that someone would gather ghosts to commit crimes, so we followed. If we knew that it was a fox fairy, we wouldn't have to run away."

Gong Mengbi smiled and said, "You two, please follow me inside to discuss in detail."

"Speaking of the extradition of ghosts, I have to ask you two to share more. Although I have the ability to penetrate yin and yang, you are experts in superseding ghosts and eliminating disasters and crimes. These days, I have been really busy and tired. "Gong Mengbi complained, "I was looking forward to the stars and the moon, and I finally brought you back."

　ok, no need to work overtime tomorrow, should be able to finish writing early
