let go of my skin fairy

Chapter 94 Ji Ruxue seems to be sick
Jiang Chaoge looked over, and in front of him was a wooden door painted with red paint. There were some farming tools at the door, but there was nothing special about it.

Wang Zhi stepped forward and knocked on the wooden door: "Uncle Village Chief, a foreigner is here to stay overnight."

Not long after, the wooden door opened.

A middle-aged man in a white shirt came out.

Just looking at his appearance, he looks about 40 years old, with pale hair and a big mole on his cheek.

"It's Wang Zhi." The middle-aged man saw Wang Zhi and laughed, "Where are the guests from other places?"

Wang Zhi pointed to Jiang Chaoge and Ji Ruxue behind him: "It's them. They said they went to Jingyang County to seek refuge with relatives. They missed Sutou and wanted to spend the night in the village."

"Hello, two guests. I am the head of Baishi Village, and my name is Wang Dasen." Wang Dasen looked at Jiang Chaoge with a very friendly attitude.

"Hi village chief, my name is Jiang Sanlang, and this is my younger sister Jiang Siniu."

"Okay, please come and sit inside, two guests."

"Thank you, village chief."

Jiang Chaoge thanked him, and brought Ji Ruxue into the house.

But Wang Dasen took some food casually, sent Wang Zhi away, and led Jiang Chaoge and Ji Ruxue through the small courtyard and into the front hall.

Once in the vestibule.

Jiang Chaoge discovered that there was an altar for worshiping gods in the front hall, but the altar was not some land, but a strange clay sculpture made of black mud.

The clay sculpture is not tall, only the size of a fist.

With an open belly and loose clothes, the shape has some shadows of "Maitreya Buddha", but the body is relatively thin and not so round.

Moreover, the shape of this clay sculpture is obviously a child, and there is no smile on his face, his eyes are wide open, and the corners of his grin are exaggerated to the sides.

Of course, this is only the surface.

In Jiang Chaoge's eyes, there was a shadow sitting cross-legged in this black clay sculpture.

The shadow was hidden in the clay sculpture, staring at Jiang Chaoge and Ji Ruxue with two eyes, licking his lips constantly.

Most importantly, the facial features of this shadow...

Almost exactly the same as Wang Dasen.

……

After Wang Dasen brought Jiang Chaoge and Ji Ruxue into the hall, he kowtowed to the fist-sized clay sculpture, making strange noises while muttering.

"#￥%—#%"

After reading for about a quarter of an hour, I finally finished reading.

Wang Dasen sat down and said: "You two guests, don't take offense. This is the custom of our Baishi Village. If you don't mind, you can stay in my room tonight."

"Then disturb the village chief." The corners of Jiang Chaoge's mouth rose slightly.

"You're welcome." After Wang Dasen finished speaking, he yelled towards the back room: "Girl, hurry up and tidy up a room for the guests."

Surprisingly, Wang Dasen did not intend to ask Jiang Chaoge and Ji Ruxue to worship the black clay sculpture.

"Okay!"

A woman's voice came from the inner room.

However, he didn't show up.

But Wang Dasen didn't care, and started to introduce the situation of Baishi Village to Jiang Chaoge.

According to Wang Dasen, life in Baishi Village is quite good, with enough food and clothes to wear. At the same time, he also sent invitations to Brother Jiang Chao and Ji Ruxue.

I want them to stay longer in Baishi Village.

The meaning is obvious.

in this era.

A slightly wealthier village will recruit some young and strong men who pass by, stay in the village for labor, and even settle in the village later.

Wang Dasen's actions this time are not surprising.

Jiang Chaoge thanked Wang Dasen tactfully, and explained the purpose of his brother and sister visiting relatives, meaning that we will leave tomorrow.

Wang Dasen didn't want to say anything, so he didn't say any more. He just asked Jiang Chaoge and Ji Ruxue to live in the house that had been cleaned up, and brought some coarse food over.

Jiang Chaoge gave a penny as a reward.

Immediately, Wang Dasen left.

From the beginning to the end, I didn't see the "girl" who cleaned up the house.

……

The guest house is very simple.

A bed, a table, two chairs, and nothing else.

It's not night yet.

Naturally, Ji Ruxue would not rest.

She looked at Jiang Chaoge: "Erlang, what do you think of this village?"

"Not bad, quite suitable for living." Jiang Chaoge smiled, and added: "It's just that the black clay sculpture is a little weird, I don't know what it is."

Ji Ruxue also responded with a sweet smile: "In terms of clay sculptures alone, there are generally three possibilities for folk worshiping clay sculptures, one is the land and mountain gods; two is to settle down disasters; three is to raise ghosts for wealth;"

This can be regarded as directly giving three options.

Jiang Chaoge thought for a while and replied, "This black clay sculpture doesn't look like the local land of mountain gods."

"Well, if it's Anjia Township, the shape is also wrong. Generally, the Anjia Township is dominated by door gods, but the door gods are majestic, but this thing is a child, not like a door god." Ji Ruxue said again.

"So, what Miss Ji means is... is this black clay sculpture used to raise ghosts and seek wealth?"

"No, raising ghosts and asking for wealth is a side door, and it is usually placed in a more hidden place, such as on the beam of the house, or in a corner of the yard, and it is not so open to worship."

Good guy, all three options are rejected.

Jiang Chaoge knew that what Ji Ruxue said next was the key point.

Sure enough, Ji Ruxue quickly spoke again: "The villagers in Baishi Village all have white hair, but this white hair does not match their age. My personal guess is that they may have lost their souls."

"Two souls?"

"Well, people have three souls and seven souls. The fourth soul is called 'non-poison'. If this soul is lost, the toxins in the body cannot be discharged; and the fifth soul is called 'elimination of pollution', which is in charge of people's delusions and evil thoughts. .”

"What's the relationship between these two spirits and white hair?" Jiang Chaoge asked again.

"Without the fourth soul, the toxins in the human body will accumulate in the body for a long time, causing some kind of disease, but without the fifth soul, the human brain will be full of delusions and evil thoughts."

After Ji Ruxue finished speaking, she added: "When a person's brain is always full of delusions and evil thoughts, his mental exhaustion will be faster than ordinary people. If things go on like this, gray hair will grow on his head, and the fourth soul After the same loss, this phenomenon will be exacerbated to a more severe level, and it may have caused the balding of the youth."

"I see." Jiang Chaoge understood.

This is like a person who uses his brain too much will become bald.

In his previous life, he had some friends who made a living by writing. Although he made a lot of money, he found that his hair was gone.

As the saying goes, if you are bald, you will naturally become stronger, probably this is the reason.

The same is true for whiteheads.

However, Jiang Chaoge saw Wang Dasen's shadow in the black clay sculpture just now, so he naturally felt that this matter might not be as simple as Ji Ruxue said.

Of course, Ji Ruxue would say the "answer" so easily, most likely it was to test him.

Therefore, Jiang Chaoge thought for a while and said: "There is nothing wrong with this guess, but now that the hair in the whole village is gray, it is obviously not so simple. After all, everyone in a village has lost both souls. This thing is definitely not normal.”

"Erlang, you're still smart." Ji Ruxue seemed very satisfied: "Then what does Erlang think is the reason why everyone in a village lost their Erpo?"

"It should be on the body of the black clay sculpture. If we can find out who gave the black clay sculpture to Wang Dasen, maybe we can solve the reason why Baishi Village lost its second soul."

"Yes, very accurate judgment, is there any more?"

"Yes, people kept asking me if I wanted dolls on the road. I didn't think about it before, but now I guess that the so-called dolls should be black clay sculptures."

"Well, so there is a problem. If the black clay sculpture is not given by a special person, but all villagers can give it, how can we find out the real 'behind the scenes'?"

Ji Ruxue used the words 'things behind the scenes' here, obviously telling Jiang Chaoge that even she couldn't accurately judge whether it was a human, a ghost, or some kind of object that was manipulating all of this.

So, Jiang Chaoge replied: "Why don't you try to startle the snake with grass?"

"What do you mean by scaring the snake?" Ji Ruxue cast a puzzled look.

Jiang Chaoge was taken aback for a moment.

Boy, he forgot.

The idiom "beat the grass to scare the snake" originated in the Northern Song Dynasty, but it does not exist now.

Thinking of this, he explained: "It means that if you don't know where there is a snake in the grass, you can poke it around with a wooden stick, and the snake will naturally be alarmed and run out by itself."

Ji Ruxue glanced at Jiang Chaoge appreciatively, as if she was about to say something more.

But suddenly, her eyes narrowed, and her head tilted to the left involuntarily.

At the same time, she sang again.

"There is a Jiang Erlang in the Night Scouting Division... hey... I feel a lot more relaxed... I'm so happy... I feel more and more inseparable from him..."

"???" Jiang Chaoge.

This time, Jiang Chaoge did not interrupt Ji Ruxue immediately.

He was waiting for her to continue singing.

In fact, Ji Ruxue sang quite nicely, with a clear voice and a melodious tone. Even the newly composed ditties can make people mesmerized.

However, soon, Ji Ruxue returned to normal.

She straightened her head again and opened her eyes again: "Does Erlang want to go out for a stroll? To lure the other party out?"

"How does Miss Ji feel?" Jiang Chaoge nodded.

"The method is not bad, but what does Erlang want to do?" Ji Ruxue asked again.

"Didn't someone give me a doll when I came here? Then I will ask for a doll. If one is not enough, I will ask for two. If not, I will bring all the dolls in the village."

"You have to come here...then you might be beaten, right?"

"I took a look when I came here. There are probably less than 200 villagers in Baishi Village, which shouldn't be enough for Miss Ji to fight alone." Jiang Chaoge is very confident.

"Hehe, I didn't expect Erlang to be so careful. If so, you can go." Ji Ruxue laughed again.

"Okay, but before I go, can Miss Ji sing me a song again?"

"What song to sing?" Ji Ruxue frowned slightly.

"Just sing: I have Jiang Erlang in the Night Detective Division... hey... I feel a lot more relaxed... I'm so happy... I feel more and more inseparable from him..."

Jiang Chaoge imitated Ji Ruxue's accent and sang.

then……

He was kicked out mercilessly.

It hurts but it doesn't hurt.

Just, a little sad, sad.

……

Doorway.

Jiang Chaoge looked aggrieved.

It was obviously Ji Ruxue who made up the song herself, so why did she beat someone up?

It seems...

Is Ji Ruxue really seriously ill?
"Singing inexplicably, what kind of disease is this? Sickness and shortness of breath? Or, intermittently...some kind of mental out-of-control?"

If this is the case, is it possible that in the dead of night, Ji Ruxue suddenly went berserk and pushed him to the ground for a slap...

So, when the time comes, how do you resist?
Should we use the Buddha's vajra body, or the Mohist's great puppet technique?

Just as he was thinking, he heard a "boom" coming from the room.

Jiang Chaoge rushed in immediately.

Immediately, he saw Ji Ruxue fell to the ground.

"Miss Ji, Miss Ji, what's the matter with you?" Jiang Chaoge walked up and gently touched Ji Ruxue's breath with one hand.

Fortunately, angry!
He shouldn't be mad at himself!
However, why did Ji Ruxue faint?

This is obviously not very scientific.

Jiang Chaoge looked around, but there was nothing in the house. With his vision, if there were any ghosts, it was impossible not to see them.

Moreover, with Ji Ruxue's strength, it is impossible for ordinary ghosts to hurt him.

"There are no ghosts in the house, but Ji Ruxue suddenly passed out...why is that? Could it be... fell asleep?"

No way?
Did you sleep right away?

Jiang Chaoge checked again, and found that he really seemed to be asleep.

Because Ji Ruxue's breathing is very gentle, and the rise and fall of her chest is also very even, which is exactly the same as the state of sleeping.

No way.

He could only hug Ji Ruxue and put her on the bed.

Then, the quilt was covered again.

At this time, he suddenly thought of something, if he left now... Ji Ruxue's safety seemed to be in question.

Where did Baizi and Heizi go?

Jiang Chaoge looked at Ji Ruxue's chest unconsciously. He remembered that Ji Ruxue had mentioned that Baizi and Heizi were on her...

"Snapped!"

Jiang Chaoge slapped himself.

What are you thinking?

This is your boss!
In the future, if you still need to rely on her to catch ghosts and subdue demons in the Night Investigation Department, how can you have any wrongdoing?Even if you really want to, wait until you become a ghost fairy.

Now, you are a ghost, what can you do?

Thinking of this, Jiang Chaoge calmed down in an instant, his heart was like still water, without any waves.

"Anyway, I'm not in a hurry, Ji Ruxue's safety is more important!" He planned to wait until later, or when Ji Ruxue woke up before going out.

This is more secure!
So, he began to sit by the side and began to practice.

Practicing, practicing...

They practiced for an hour.

It's getting late.

Ji Ruxue was still sleeping, but, gradually, her mouth began to make some strange sounds, as if she was talking in sleep.

Jiang Chaoge was a little curious, so he stopped practicing, sat down by the bed and began to listen.
