husband from hell

Chapter 135 The Wind Blows Mask
"Who..." As soon as I turned around, the dim light in this place suddenly went out, and a pair of hands grasped mine, and an obedient voice like fairy music rang in my ears: "I told you not to." If you die, you must come!"

This voice is very familiar, it's Ah Jiu!

My eyes adapted to the sudden darkness, and just as I saw Ah Jiu beside me, a white index finger was put on my lips: "Shhh."

And at the other end of the long and narrow tomb, a slender figure appeared: "Ah Jiu, you are here to make trouble again."

It really was that voice just now!

The voice then said in a somewhat lazy tone: "You work hard, why can't you just stop for a while?"

While speaking, a gust of wind rushed over, Xiaoyu and Jingjing flashed, and they all avoided it. Ah Jiu smiled lightly, raised his hand, and countless black shadows rose from the ground, forming a wall , easily blocked that woman's offensive!
Taking advantage of this time, Ah Jiu said in a low voice: "Follow me!"

After speaking, he led us to run to the other side of the tomb. Xiaoyu and Jingjing glanced at each other and followed.

Ah Jiu seems to be very familiar with this big tomb. She walked through one door after another and led us all the way outside. During the period, she encountered many messy things, but for Ah Jiu , It was all a piece of cake, and it was easily wiped out with the powerful technique of raising ghosts passed down from the Yang family.

"call……"

When I rescued the earrings last time, the strange whistling sound I heard sounded again, and I only heard the sound of "chi yo yo", the sound of something swimming fast on the ground, and the branches of those heavy pears came out again. Spread over!

Both Xiaoyu and Jingjing were very athletic, and they neatly threw the yellow talisman behind them to light it up. The branches were afraid of being burned, and they all shrank back when they encountered the fire. After passing the flame, it caught up and released a lot of transparent silk threads that can suck yin energy at us!

Ah Jiu turned her head and shook her slender hand, and countless hands suddenly appeared on the ground, grabbing the feet of those men in black, and the men in black fell down in response, turning into light robes.

I ran with Ah Jiu under my feet, and my mind also turned rapidly. What exactly is Ah Jiu thinking this time?Every time I wish I would die on the spot, but this time it was actually to save me.

Xiaoyu noticed Ah Jiu's ghost raising skills, and couldn't help but admire: "Lu Qiao, your sister can use so many lost ghost raising skills, it's really amazing!"

I smiled wryly: "To tell you the truth, she can be regarded as my elder..."

"I said, it turns out that he is senior." Jingjing did not doubt him, and she was a little admirable with such a proud temperament: "This is the first time I have seen such a young and promising ghost raiser."

Ah Jiu didn't even glance at Wei's sister Hua, she just led us along the way. Soon, we got rid of those men in black and came to the side of a narrow path.

Although Ah Jiu was slender and weak, he kicked open a small locked door with one kick. As soon as the small door opened, the outside wind rushed in, carrying the smell of river water, blowing The person instantly woke up.

I looked outside, and it turned out that I was on the bank of the Rouge River.

There were still noisy voices from Chongli and the man in black behind me. Ah Jiu pulled me out, and Xiao Yu and Jingjing also came out. She turned around, took out a yellow talisman from her body, and closed the door again. Seal the yellow talisman on the crack of the door.

Sure enough, there was a crashing sound from inside, but they couldn't get out.

Taking advantage of this time, Ah Jiu said: "It can be blocked for a while, but it cannot be blocked for a lifetime. It is still not safe here. We have to go to a place that Zhongli can't reach!"

Then, he took us all the way and ran out along the Rouge River.

I don't know how long I've been running, but suddenly my eyes open up, and I can see the towering residential buildings in the Ziyuchai community. Ah Jiu stopped, looked behind me warily, as if she was sure there was no danger, and gouged me out again: "You idiot, it's better to die."

I didn't even bother to refute, and hurriedly asked, "Why are you here?"

"I still want to ask you!" Ah Jiu slipped a pair of eyes and said coldly: "I told you to keep your life, but you just don't listen! Instead of taking advantage of others, you might as well give it to me." !"

I hesitated for a moment and said, "You...are you not in the same group as them?"

Ah Jiu rolled her big eyes and said, "I don't need to tell you."

It's strange... Ah Jiu killed the ghost cultivator before, snatched the sachet of longevity, and then tricked Wei Qian into drilling it. In this way, she should have colluded with that strange force, but now, she has never It is too illogical for the men of that strange force to rescue me.

My use value, is it worth letting her take risks?

Think about it calmly, for Ah Jiu's character, there are only eternal interests, no eternal friends, and betrayal can be regarded as almost anytime and anywhere.

But no matter what, Ah Jiu really saved me this time, so I still said, "This time, thank you."

"Only this time do you want to thank me?" Ah Jiu narrowed his eyes and said, "There are still many times when you should thank me!"

"We also thank you for those trapped ghost raisers!" Xiaoyu said immediately: "It's not too late, we have to report back now!"

Said, said goodbye to us, and went back with Jingjing.

Ah Jiu pursed her lips and looked at the backs of the pair of sisters, as if she was thinking.

I looked at Ah Jiu and said, "Whose is that big tomb?"

"You won't know if you tell me." Ah Jiu glanced back at me, and said disdainfully, "However, I can tell you that the man who made longevity is buried in that big tomb."

"Longevity is created by people..." My heart skipped a beat: "You said last time that as long as a mortal has longevity, he can almost become a god. Wouldn't the person who created longevity be even more powerful... "

"Who says it's not!" Ah Jiu said: "The person who made Changsheng was a Taoist priest in the Western Song Dynasty who accidentally made it when he was cultivating immortals. The reason why Changsheng got this name is not only because it can make people live forever, Eternal youth can also make the bones live, return the wandering soul, and bring the dead back to life, so..."

"So, it will definitely be contested by people all over the world..." I sighed, "It's the same as now."

"Everyone has a greed in their hearts, and Changsheng can just satisfy that greed." Ah Jiu rolled his eyes and said, "Plus, the most powerful thing about Changsheng is that it can confuse people's hearts."

Of course I remember.

"So, this kind of thing must be sealed, and the ability of longevity should be covered up." I said, "How many bloody storms did you go through before you arrived in Tanshen Town?"

"If you count your whole life, you can't count how many people died because of longevity." Ah Jiu rolled his eyes and continued: "So it's best not to be known about this kind of thing, and it won't be used by others. It’s not something that should exist in this world.”

So longevity and the secrets about longevity were sealed up like this until Wei Qiancheng opened it.

"I know..." I looked at the direction we escaped from: "They were able to find it in that big tomb just because they couldn't find longevity..."

Ah Jiu said: "Yeah, I want to take pictures of cats and tigers, and then become an immortal."

One longevity is enough to cause chaos in the world. If a new longevity is really produced, it will be a mess. It can really bring the dead back to life. If many ghosts are resurrected, what will happen? Thinking about it makes my back feel cold...

Thinking of this, I hurriedly asked, "What is the origin of those people? It seems that they are quite powerful."

"It's just some greedy people, there's nothing to say." Ah Jiu looked around and said to him: "You just need to be with Cheng Ke, and you must not worry about other things, otherwise If your life is involved, then I..."

Having said this, Ah Jiu hurriedly covered it up: "I still want your body!"

No, she couldn't hide it from my eyes. Obviously, she was lying, and she must have another purpose for me besides the body.

"Ah Jiu, who are you!" I stared at Ah Jiu: "What is your relationship with Wei Qiancheng and Cheng Ke?"

"Ask me?" Ah Jiu glanced indifferently, and said, "It's better to ask them directly."

Saying that, I turned around and was about to leave, I quickly stopped in front of her: "You better speak clearly today!"

"Just because of you, you still want to stop me?" Ah Jiu said with a sinister smile, "It seems that you are really tired of working..."

As he said that, a hand was about to come towards me!
But at the same time, a slender and straight hand hit Ah Jiu's beautiful face heavily, and the fat-like skin made a crisp "pop" sound!
I was stunned, the smell of sandalwood hit me, it was Cheng Ke!
And following that slap on Ah Jiu's face, a memory suddenly appeared in my mind!

"Tell me, does it look good?"

The moon is very round, and there is a person standing under the round moon.

The figure of that person was very slender, his hands and feet were bare, his exposed skin looked tender and smooth under the moonlight, and he looked very young.

But this person is a bit indistinguishable between male and female, because the voice is similar to that between a woman and a boy in a voice change period, slender and pleasant, but a bit gloomy.

And this person was wearing a beauty mask on his face.

Cheng Ke was leaning on a railing, and the shadow of the unique parapet of Chinese-style buildings fell on him mottled.

He moved from the shadows to the moonlight, looked at that person coldly, and said mercilessly: "It's not pretty."

The seemingly immature body trembled, but suppressed the obvious disappointment again, and reluctantly said: "Then, then I will change it."

"It's not your own face, is it interesting to change it back and forth?" Cheng Ke still has the same look of rejecting everyone.

"But..." The man was a little hesitant, but he still asked tentatively, "Cheng Ke, who do you think looks better?"

Cheng Ke glanced over with deep peach blossom eyes, and said indifferently: "I don't know."

"Don't do this!" The man seemed relieved, and immediately became happy again: "There are always good-looking people, right? I just want to know what you think good-looking people will look like!"

Cheng Ke lowered his head slightly, a lot of memories were revolving around in Cheng Ke's mind, but the ones that came out were all with hideous faces.

The boy who set the fire, the elder brother who hid the knife in his smile, and the faces in the distance who seemed to be sunk in the mist. The memories about them are all wounds, pains, and hatred...

Among those faces, there was only one face, which smiled brightly like clouds.

"calamus."

"You mean calamus?" The man was obviously taken aback, then nodded: "Yes...calamus, calamus is so beautiful..."

"A face, is it important?" Cheng Ke thought of the other brothers, the child who called him a vixen, a self-deprecating smile appeared on his thin lips: "Yes, maybe it is very important."

"Do you understand?" The masked man seemed to have found a confidant, and jumped towards Cheng Ke excitedly: "Does a good-looking person like you understand?"

Cheng Ke's eyes glowed with the moonlight in the sky, and he nodded.

Yes, if she looked more ordinary, wouldn't she be able to live a little better?
No, this kind of thing, who can say accurately...

The masked man looked at Cheng Ke's stunning appearance under the moonlight, and seemed to be stunned. At this moment, a gust of wind blew over and blew the mask off.

And the face exposed behind the mask made people dumbfounded...

There are many scars, one scar, another scar, all over the face, only the eyes are still bright.

It was intact, except for a pair of obsidian eyes.

The nose was crooked by the scars, and the lips were twisted by the scars. That face was simply ugly "crafted by the gods".

How much suffering did this person suffer to live until now?

And that person realized that he even dropped the mask when he stared blankly for a while, so he couldn't help showing a very horrified look, and wanted to pick up the mask to cover that face, but the wind seemed to be playing tricks on people, unexpectedly Blow the mask all the way to where the person would have reached, but couldn't.

The man wanted to jump anxiously, but there was nothing he could do. He could only watch helplessly at the mask as thin as cicada wings, which was swept by the wind and fell into Cheng Ke's arms.

The man quickly turned his face away, with his back to Cheng Ke, not daring to turn his head.

But Cheng Ke just held the mask, walked over, and gently covered Ah Jiu's face with the mask.

"Is it..." The man's voice seemed to be holding back, not letting himself sob out: "It's ugly, no one wants to see such a face..."

"It's up to you whether you wear a mask or not," Cheng Ke just said, "It's just your face, which is not as unacceptable as you think."

That voice could be called gentle.

For Cheng Ke, who is as cold as ice, it is rare to see tenderness.

The man trembled slightly again, and murmured, "I...I never dare to..."

"It's a good thing to survive." Cheng Ke turned his face and said lightly: "You remember, as long as you live, good things will always happen."

When he put on his elder brother Luo Chengshou's fox fur coat, why didn't he think so?

A good thing...maybe in the back, although it hasn't come now, there is no way to guarantee that it won't come in the future.

"I... I will remember this sentence!"

That voice seemed to have found some hope.

When I came back to my senses, Cheng Ke had already wrapped me in his arms, and a cool breath came over me, and he said in a deep and clear voice, "I'm here."

I raised my head from his arms, and saw Ah Jiu's alluring face that I got from Calamus.

I know that the man with scars on his face is the real Ah Jiu from before.

Still the original Ah Jiu.

Ah Jiu was not surprised by that slap, raised his eyes, and smiled unwillingly at the corner of his mouth, but the force of that slap was so strong that black blood oozed from Ah Jiu's cherry lips!

Cheng Ke's slender figure was standing in front of me, and his voice was still as cold as usual: "Ah Jiu, I said, if you touch her again, I will kill you."

Obviously Cheng Ke misunderstood, this time I was captured by Ah Jiu!
I quickly grabbed Cheng Ke and said, "Listen to me, this time, it's because of Ah Jiu that I..."

"If it wasn't for Calamus' body, I would probably have died long ago?" Ah Jiu looked at Cheng Ke firmly: "It's just because of this face that you can tolerate me until now..."

"I don't care whose face it is." Cheng Ke's voice became deeper and deeper: "Next time, I don't care whether the corpse will rot immediately or not, I will use a little more force."

Use a little more force, and Ah Jiu's soul will emerge from the calamus corpse.

Now, he doesn't care what will happen to the corpse.

"What I want will never be mine anyway, I'm used to it." Ah Jiu's voice was low, with a bit of self-deprecation: "I should have been willing."

"That's your business," Cheng Ke said coldly: "When you want something, first make sure you deserve it."

"Yeah, I'm not worthy, I'm not worthy at all." Ah Jiu smiled, her eyes flickering: "I'm not worthy, so I shouldn't even think about it, I shouldn't even try, right?"

Ah Jiu likes Cheng Ke!And she should have liked it out of deep inferiority complex.

Therefore, she really wanted to change her face and body. She only thought about whether she could stand by Cheng Ke's side and complement him?

I understand, because, I thought so too.

I hope I am worthy of him.

"You don't need to ask others about your own affairs." Cheng Ke was still full of things and said, "I just hope that you stay away from Lu Qiao."

Ah Jiu gritted her teeth, said nothing, her slender body flickered, turned around and disappeared.

Cheng Ke didn't even look at her, but hugged me even tighter: "I'm sorry... I won't let you leave me again, never again."

I quickly struggled out of Cheng Ke's arms and said, "Cheng Ke, Ah Jiu saved me just now!"

As I said that, I recounted what happened just now: "Those weirdos are using ghost raisers to make longevity! If it weren't for Ah Jiu, then I guess I'd really be able to come out!"

Cheng Ke frowned and said, "Let's go take a look."

When I got to the Yanzhi River, no matter what, I couldn't find the place where Ah Jiu's yellow talisman was pasted!

"It's gone..."

"There is a curse for people to bypass." Cheng Ke measured the distance from the soil to the river with his slender hands, and said, "Unless the person who cast the curse can lead outsiders in, they will definitely not be found outside."

"So, it was really thanks to Ah Jiu just now!" I said hastily, "I know she must have other uses for me to save me, but..."

"A person with ulterior motives has done good deeds, and there is no need to thank them." Cheng Ke straightened up, and said coolly, "She did it for herself."

"Cheng Ke..." I couldn't help staring at him: "About Ah Jiu's past, are you..."

"My own suffering is not a reason to harm others." Cheng Ke seemed unwilling to mention Ah Jiu again: "That is her own business."

I frowned, not knowing what to say, I just felt bad all of a sudden.

Yes, Ah Jiu told me that I was born with everything, but she was different, she didn't have it, so she had to grab it.

It’s useless to think too much about Ah Jiu’s matter. I thought about it and felt that the matter of the tomb was more important, so I continued: “The matter is still related to the Taiqing Palace. Should we return to Taiqing Palace? In the Qing palace, check again?"

"No." Cheng Ke said without hesitation: "In the future, you can't go to places where I can't accompany you. This time is enough."

He paused: "I won't allow another time."

The last time I saw him, who was clearly unhappy, without showing any expression of emotion, was the time when Wei Qiancheng took me away.

Just as I was about to speak, the phone vibrated suddenly. I picked it up and saw that it was Li Minglang's call. I quickly picked it up. On the other end of the phone was Li Minglang's finally relieved voice: "Thank God, you are fine!"

"I'm fine," I said quickly, "Li Minglang, what happened today..."

"About the three and a half money, Cheng Ke told me." Li Minglang's voice knew what I wanted to say, and he hurriedly said: "But, I asked the master, and even the master didn't know, who in the name of the Taiqing Palace , I bought the three and a half dollars from the black market."

"Three and a half dollars should be the key..." I asked, "Do you know this kind of thing?"

Li Minglang pondered for a moment, then said: "According to rumors, three and a half coins can call back souls, and in that fragrance, you can connect with dead people."

Calling back souls... Sure enough, it still has a certain functionality. Could it be that you want to use that fragrance to call the soul of the old Taoist priest in the tomb to ask Fang Zi.

Those people asked for three and a half dollars, so it must be related to refining longevity.

"I'll help you find out," Li Minglang said, "Where did you go?"

I told the story again and asked, "Does your Taiqing Palace have a strange little courtyard?"

"There are many such yards. I don't know which one you are talking about. However, since I passed by, I will go again to see what's going on." Li Minglang said, "Don't worry, someone dares to take the risk. Using the reputation of our Taiqing Palace, we will definitely investigate to the end."

After hanging up the phone, I looked at Cheng Ke and said, "I don't know what happened to those ghost raisers inside."

"Probably just like animals in captivity, they still need their yin energy, so there should be no danger to their lives." Cheng Ke said, "It's just that I really can't remember who that strange woman is."

"Let's look slowly." I said, "It's hard to find so many things."

Cheng Ke nodded and said, "Longevity is not so easy to refine, it's just that this group of people came here a bit strangely."

"I think so too!" I hurriedly said, "It's understandable that these people are trying so hard to live forever, but it seems unnecessary to involve Wei Changsheng in it! It just caused me a lot of trouble in vain."

Cheng Ke thought for a while, and said: "These people will appear again, even if they wait on the sidelines, they can always wait, but I don't know what kind of medicine is sold in Ah Jiu's gourd."

Ah Jiu seems to have been taking risks on various edges.

"By the way..." I suddenly remembered the Xiao Hu I met in the tomb, and hurriedly said: "Maybe, I can check with that Xiao Hu to see if there are any clues about those people."

"Ring..." At this time, the phone rang again. I saw it was my mother's call, and I picked it up. My mother said, "Why don't you turn on the phone all day, because you want to kill your mother?" Ah! Come here quickly, I want to eat sweet tofu curd, go and buy some."

My mother's order is of course a top priority, so I quickly agreed and took Cheng Ke to buy tofu curds. When I got back to the hospital, I got off the elevator and turned the corner. I saw Song Zhiyuan holding a stack of papers and talking to him The man spoke in a low voice.

And it was Wei Qiancheng who was with Song Zhiyuan.

How could these two people be together!
