Chapter 214 [Delivery Boy]

Since ancient times, Heguo has had a tradition of learning the culture of Tang Dynasty.

From simple clothing, worship etiquette, to traditional culture, such as tea ceremony, archery, kendo...

The Six Arts of the Gentleman in ancient Tang Dynasty are indeed a bit outdated in today's era. The He Kingdom has also removed some of them and retained some to a certain extent.

But they have never been bad at attaching importance to these cultural heritages.

As for the theory of ghosts and gods, He Guo also learned and inherited it, and derived its own system - Onmyoji.

Unlike the Tang Dynasty, which was passed down from generation to generation, some Taoists used the theory of "three days of righteousness" to curb and oppose the old habits of "six days of old qi".

However, the Onmyoji of Japan prefers the six heavenly spirits, which means dividing people into three, six or nine levels.

In addition to extremely cruel and bloody sacrifices, there is also the practice of using gold, silver, money and burials to drive and worship ghosts and gods.

"There are not many records of that period of history in Qingniu Temple. Most of them have been destroyed."

Jiangcheng,

Mind-nourishing view, in a bungalow,

The faint smell of burning smoke floated out from the air along the window. At a square table, Taoist Guanshan was sitting opposite Lu Zhengyi, holding an ancient book in his hand, flipping through it, and said, "After all, people nowadays When it comes to sacrifices, people will inevitably think of gods and feudalism, and then think of us or those bald people, I mean monks."

"But they don't know that the practice at that time was different from the practice now."

"Those dynasties such as Xia, Shang, Zhou... these dynasties all had the custom of offering sacrifices, but the sacrifices were not necessarily pigs, cattle and sheep, even people would be sacrificed. Since you have taken pictures of these things, you must have done it. Understand some of the old customs of the Six Heavens Old Qi period.”

At this point, he paused, "I am not from that era, and I don't know the authenticity of the records. But at that time, the spirits in the mountains and the sea could become gods, and people who turned into ghosts after death could also become gods. At that time, it was not like now, with practitioners everywhere, but the gods at that time were not the kind-hearted people who brought blessings to their families and countries."

"They are cruel, ruthless, and aloof, but they are also very powerful. We cannot understand or even believe many things recorded in ancient books."

"Since the resentful ghost in Heguo was supported by the old laws of the six days of old energy, how good is it?"

Lu Zhengyi hesitated for a moment and said, "It's acceptable."

"Is it just acceptable?"

Taoist Guanshan shook his head in a funny way, "I thought those sacrificial methods were so brilliant that they were directly destroyed from history."

But as he spoke, something suddenly occurred to him. He looked up at Lu Zhengyi and unconsciously moved forward, "What about me?"

"In your mind, what is my evaluation?"

"Is it acceptable?"

He suddenly remembered Lu Zhengyi's description when he called him about Zhou Jie.

Is Zhou Jie’s level very low?No.

Not to mention that it is difficult for ordinary people to resist the charm of her body. Even when he first met her, he had to be serious. Otherwise, he might be fooled and become someone else's skirt. Minister.

According to Zhou Jie, she accidentally embarked on this path of spiritual practice while observing the habits of foxes and learning how to act in order to better play the role of a fox demon.

Calculating this, it's probably more than ten years.

It took more than ten years for Zhou Jie to be able to achieve this, and it goes without saying that she is talented.

But in Lu Zhengyi's mouth, he got a low level evaluation.

that oneself...

Lu Zhengyi's words came to his lips, but looking at the scorching look in Taoist Guanshan's eyes, half of his buttocks left the chair.

After a while, he politely replied, "General."

"have to."

Taoist Guanshan, who was still looking forward to it, helplessly spread his hands and sat back, "So, she is very extraordinary, can she control the wind and rain?"

He didn't ask why Zhengyi Lu, who was only in his twenties according to his identity record, could speak so highly of people older than him.

Regarding Director Lu's situation, he also reported it to the elders at Qingniu Temple.

But the answer I got was "More thoughts bring disaster, less work brings blessings". The meaning is very obvious. We don't bother them when they are filming and living their lives honestly. We should be less jealous and suspicious, so as not to provoke people who shouldn't be involved. disaster.

There is no need to bring some things to light. It is enough for everyone to pretend to be confused and stabilize the scale.

"I don't understand that."

Lu Zhengyi recalled what happened when he visited Zhang Yu's house that day and was suddenly communicated by Yu Wenxiu, "I'll kill him. Well, when I took that Muto Ejiro to his house, I saw the sacrificial object in his mouth in the basement. .”

"A mask, Nuo face. No, after it was passed to them from the Tang Dynasty, it should be called Nengmian. Judging from the age of the thing, it should have been passed down from the past, not made by the Muto family."

"Then I put on the mask and called out the resentful ghost. She looked pretty good, but after all... she was over a hundred years old. After a brief exchange with her, she expressed her willingness to follow me to the Tang Kingdom for development. ,that's all."

A few words silenced the Taoist Guanshan opposite.

Of course he knew about the term Nuo noodles.

According to legend, in the ancient Tang Dynasty, those responsible for sacrifices were called "witches", and Nuo noodles were the bridge between witches and gods.

It is a common saying to put on Nuo masks, perform sacrificial dances to welcome the gods, offer sacrificial objects, and seek blessings.

In today's Tang Dynasty, although Nuo noodles are not so magical in the hearts of the people, there are still many cities that retain this culture, such as Xiangcheng, Jiangcheng, Gancheng, Miaocheng...

However, if Nuo noodles are used as a carrier, it can indeed become a cage to restrain the resentful spirits.

But the reason that kept Taoist Guanshan silent was not the Nuo noodles.

But Lu Zhengyi directly called out the resentful ghost when he knew that the other party had a century-old resentment ghost in his hands.

Is it confidence, or arrogance?
"Then her acceptable level is reflected in what aspects?"

Taoist Guanshan asked again.

"Very fierce."

Lu Zhengyi recalled the appearance of the resentful spirit, "And she is not afraid of me. This is what surprises me the most."

"Not afraid of you?"

Taoist Guanshan didn't understand this.

Lu Zhengyi thought for a while and replied:
"...She has no emotions and no sanity."

"The moment you put on the mask and call her out, you have to prepare sacrifices in advance so that she can eat enough."

"Otherwise, it would be quite troublesome to shut her back into the mask."

Taoist Guanshan was stunned again.

This, this is not inconsistent.

Without sanity, that person just said he could be friendly...

Oh, I see.

Taoist Guanshan looked at Lu Zhengyi's thick arms and roughly understood how to communicate.

In this case, the Muto family has a great cause. As he just said in a few words, he 'took' Muto Ejiro to his house. The people he met along the way, including the security guards... probably had some friendly exchanges. Come on.

"never mind."

Taoist Guanshan shook his head. With this description, there was nothing he could ask.

"Can you guarantee that she is absolutely under your control?"

He looked at Lu Zhengyi seriously, "This is the Tang Kingdom, not the He Kingdom. After she comes, if there is anything inappropriate, will you be responsible?"

Lu Zhengyi smiled and nodded, "I'm responsible."

This was the main purpose of his visit.

No matter what the situation is in other countries, Tang State has a department to maintain balance.

After all, they are importing such a highly dangerous resentful soul, so the customs clearance documents must be prepared and informed in advance.

Taoist Guanshan and the Taoist palace behind him did not want to fight with him, and the same was true for Lu Zhengyi.

He just wants to do things that interest him, and doesn't want to make enemies everywhere and be afraid of others.

"Row."

Taoist Guanshan received his guarantee and did not ask any more questions. He said directly, "As for the mask, please go through the logistics channel."

As he spoke, he stood up and rummaged in the cabinet next to him.

Later, Taoist Guanshan handed over a crumpled business card and said, "Send it back by Changfeng Express. If you ask your people to call this number in Heguo, someone will go there to pick up the things. You can get here on the same day." side."

Lu Zhengyi picked up the business card with a strange expression, "Don't go to such trouble, our crew is about to return to China, so we will just send it back."

"Don't worry, it's out of my hands."

Taoist Guanshan looked at him, sat down across from him again, continued to read the ancient books, and replied without raising his head, "It's okay if you go get this thing, but as for Teacher Yu... forget it, She was not originally dedicated to this path, she was just lucky enough to embark on it.”

"Let them take this thing and get on the plane, and I won't trust the lives of the people on that plane."

"Let's take a smuggler's flight, and this is a special channel, specially designed to transport these. When the time comes, we will fly directly to Beidu and deliver them to your home as soon as we land. Once they are delivered to you, you will be responsible for all the responsibilities."

"……also."

Lu Zhengyi no longer insisted, picked up the business card, took a photo, and sent it directly to Yu Wenxiu, asking her to press the phone number to contact Changfeng Express to send the things back.

"By the way, I want money." Suddenly, Taoist Guanshan mentioned again, "I work, so I won't give it to you for free."

"I know, I'll pay for it at my own expense!"

Lu Zhengyi replied helplessly.

Although Yu Wenxiu can communicate with him.

But as Taoist Guanshan said, what if people don’t have time to communicate?

Then this mask would be dangerous on this plane.

Moreover, the plane's flight time was at least several hours, and there was no way Lu Zhengyi could directly occupy her body to spend these hours for her.

……

"Okay, I see."

far away in the country of peace,

In the hotel, Yu Wenxiu, wrapped tightly in a thick quilt, nodded and hung up the logistics phone call.

And on the round table not far away, a mask was lying there quietly.

To be honest, she didn't dare to get it.

"It feels very disgusting, even more disgusting than that old guy!"

Liu Baoning, who was also wrapped tightly in a thick quilt, with only his head exposed, spoke seriously.

But as soon as she finished speaking, her wrapped head was knocked by Li Zhenxi next to her, "Be polite when you speak."

"But he is not a good person."

Liu Baoning retorted, "He is just an old guy."

She is very persistent.

Wenxiu was not the only one in the room at this time.

The rest of the crew were also crowded in this small room. There was only some open space next to the glass round table where the masks were placed.

"I feel very uncomfortable too."

Before Li Zhenxi could continue, Wang Xiaoxu expressed his thoughts next to him.

Compared with Liu Baoning who just watched it, he had a completely different feeling.

The temperature coming from that mask was very cold.

"Turn up the air conditioning, everyone."

It was obviously a ghost, but Wang Xiaoxu couldn't help but tremble as he stood there.

"Brother Wang, take a closer look. Is the air conditioner on?" Bai Wei stood there, also wrapped in a quilt, and replied helplessly, "This mask feels like a block of ice. It must be winter, or... In the winter in the north, it has to be outdoors.”

Ever since Lu Zhengyi attached himself to Wenxiu's body and brought the mask back to the hotel, this room has been like winter.

Before they come in, they all have to put on thick quilts.

After all, who would bring winter clothes with them when traveling in the summer?

Fortunately, although it is summer now, people staying in hotels like to turn on the air conditioner at [-] degrees Celsius and wrap themselves up in big quilts, so it is not surprising that they do this.

"Keep on insisting, the logistics person said that someone will come to pick up the package within 10 minutes."

Yu Wenxiu asked hesitantly, "But we shouldn't need to take it off later, right?"

Then, she looked at Wang Xiaoxu and said, "Brother, you are already a ghost anyway, so the coldness is nothing. If you don't wait, I will send you down."

"This this."

Wang Xiaoxu opened his mouth for a long time before holding back the word 'good'.

He is also afraid.

But he rarely turned down requests from others.

But compared to Wang Xiaoxu's colleagues during his lifetime, the people on the Mei Civet Cat crew are still a little different.

"Actually, it doesn't have to be like this."

Ajie scratched his head, "We don't have to touch it. I'll hold it with something later and try it with a glove? Maybe that's okay."

"I'll do it, I'm strong."

Wei Kang showed off the unicorn arm he had developed by carrying photography equipment all year round.

"Just kidding, I'll do it."

Yu Wenxiu, who made the suggestion at the beginning, looked at them and shook his head helplessly, "In terms of physical health, I should be the best here."

I don't know why, but when she tried to act as Taoist Guanshan, she only got a little "qi" and was not possessed in turn.

After finishing the performance, the 'qi' disappeared and he looked like an ordinary person again.

But when playing Director Lu, she not only handed over control of her body.

And after the performance, her body will undergo some changes, including changes in strength.

Not to mention Wei Kang's photography equipment, Yu Wenxiu felt that if she participated in a weightlifting competition now, she might be able to bring glory to the country.

"Boom boom boom——"

But just then, there was a knock on the door.

The room fell silent in an instant.

After a while, Bai Wei, who was standing by the door, cautiously opened the door.

"Hello, I'm here to get it, hiss——"

Outside the house, a man wearing Changfeng Express work clothes and carrying a large iron box was about to say some common words, but when he reached his mouth, his words were suddenly dispersed by a gust of cold air in front of him.

He trembled all over, took several steps back suddenly, and looked at the room in horror.

Across the door, the inside and the outside seem like two different worlds.

The people inside were all wrapped in thick cotton jackets, as if they were spending the winter.

People outside were wearing short sleeves and it was still too hot.

"There's nothing on him."

Liu Baoning glanced at the courier boy standing outside and whispered to the others.

what?
ordinary people?

"cough."

And the courier boy seemed to understand something, and walked over despite the cold, "Who, who is Ms. Yu Wenxiu?"

"I, I am!"

Yu Wenxiu quickly stood up and walked over.

"ID card."

The courier boy put down the iron box and took out an object that looked like a credit card machine.

"Oh, oh oh!"

Yu Wenxiu looked at him, took out her ID card and handed it over.

But throughout the whole process, she stared at this man closely, "Do you know Taoist Master Guanshan?"

"Prince Guanshan?"

The courier boy swiped his ID card on the card machine and shook his head in confusion, "I don't know him."

"then you……"

Yu Wenxiu just wanted to ask something.

But before she could ask, the courier boy had already pointed the card machine-like object at her, "This is your information, right?"

"Uh, yes, yes."

Yu Wenxiu looked at the information displayed on the object. Not to mention her name, gender, home address, even her phone number, ID card, blood type...a lot of private information was displayed.

"Row."

The courier boy returned her ID card and said, "The employer has already paid the fees. Where are the things?"

He looked inside.

Soon, the people who were blocking the door of the room retreated to both sides, and at the very end, on the round table by the window, a mask was lying there alone.

The courier boy didn't say much. After putting the card machine back into the iron box, he first took out a pair of gloves and put them on, and then took out a wooden box from the box.

The size of the box coincides with the size of the mask.
