Chapter 30 New enemies are coming

The word "ghost" has also appeared in our previous book.

To put it simply, ghosts are originally humans, but because they were bewitched or enslaved by evil spirits, they became a kind of existence that is neither human nor ghost, neither demon nor demon.

Of course, there is also a gap between the ghost and the ghost.

For example, last year in the Zhihua Temple in the capital, the "Seven Evils" that Shuangxie and others encountered were ghosts transformed by the dead animals, and their fighting power was certainly impressive.

As for the "Three Ghosts of the Peng Family" in front of them, they were just transformed by a tiger spirit from the mountain, so what they can do is very limited.

The previous vision that Dugu and his son experienced when they stayed at Zhimaling at night was, to put it bluntly, just a "dream" created by the ghost. That's all... it was created with the help of the tiger spirit; only the Peng family and three others Although it is not impossible for the ghosts to do it themselves, the intensity will be much lower. When encountering people like Dugu and his son who have a little bit of righteousness in their bodies, they are likely to be separated by their own mental power.

Then again, can it be considered that what the three ghosts of the Peng family said at that time were all lies?

That’s not the case.

The story Peng Ying told Dugu and his son at that time was half true and half false.

First of all, there is Peng Lu. He is indeed good at craftsmanship, very diligent, and can make money, but he does not care about his family as much as Peng Ying said in the story... At least, he does not care about everyone. A family.

The death of the Peng family's first child and the disability of the second child, Peng, were all caused by Peng Lu's neglect of the two daughters born to his wife.

However, Peng Lu was still very concerned about Peng Ying's son, which also caused Peng Ying to become a spoiled child.

Yes, Peng Ying was not as humble, polite and talented as he described himself during his lifetime.

You can say that Peng Ying’s character is not bad, but he is not bad either, but to describe it, he would be like “not having the young master’s life, but having the young master’s illness.”

He was able to pass the "Tongsheng" examination because his father spent a lot of money to "operate" it, but... with the conditions of a craftsman family like theirs, they can basically only operate it. When a child is born, he has no hope of being a "scholar".

As for him saying that he is proficient in music and is appreciated by many literati, this is purely because he puts a premium on his own face... In the final analysis, it is because he has a little bit of talent in chess, calligraphy and painting. The only one who can take action is Qin.

In addition, Mrs. Peng never got married, not because she really couldn't get married, but because Peng Lu had selfish motives - the old man thought that if one day he was gone, Mrs. Peng would also After getting married, Peng Ying's "young master" nature is likely to end up starving to death. But if Peng is allowed to inherit her craftsmanship, at least in the future, Peng Ying will be able to eat well with her sister and have a way out.

As for Peng, it is even more subtle...

Her experiences have forced her to become a person with some physical and mental problems.

Peng’s heart undoubtedly holds a grudge.Peng Lu is her father, but she doesn't hate Peng Ying, her younger brother.

The relationship between Peng Ying and her sister is indeed very good, but Peng Ying's relationship with Peng is like sister and brother, while Peng's relationship with Peng Ying is a bit unclear...

After all, Peng Ying is the only person Peng has contact with except her father. Her understanding of the colorful world outside is all based on Peng Ying coming to chat with her every day... It can be said that Peng Ying is Peng's only spiritual sustenance in the world.

So, Mrs. Peng doesn't mind not marrying for the rest of her life, and will support her younger brother through craftsmanship in the future; therefore, she won't have a real quarrel with her father who intends to teach her craftsmanship.

To sum up, would you say this family lived a "happy and harmonious" life? It can be said that it is...but the actual situation is much more complicated than what Peng Ying described.

Just like countless families in the world, in fact, there are conflicts hidden under the surface calmness, just more or less, big or small problems... And if the concept of "family" is expanded, At the level of relatives, there are even more conflicts, but if these conflicts don't break out, everyone's life will just be like this.

Of course, the three ghosts of the Peng family will not explain these messy things to Dugu and his son so clearly - most of us will do it when talking about ourselves, even if we do not do it deliberately. Beautify yourself to a certain extent... If you are not forced or feel emboldened, who will easily express your inner thoughts and shortcomings?

However, what Dugu and his son heard about what Shao Shanhu did was basically true... There is no need for the three ghosts of the Peng family to be secretive about this part.

At the end, in the part about how the three of them died, in order to avoid the obvious element of "acting for the tiger", they said that they were killed by the tiger spirit and said that they encountered a pack of wolves.

Someone must have said something when they saw this: So the question now is, what is this tiger spirit doing? What is it mixed with?

Hey ~ this is the most awkward part of this matter.

This tiger spirit, after practicing to this level, is only one step away from being able to transform into a human form.

However, the heaven and earth are mysterious. Every mountain spirit and monster who has cultivated to such a critical point will encounter obstacles, and if he wants to break through, he must meet the four words of "chance and coincidence"... And this tiger The hurdle that the spirit hits is that it has to find a person with "tiger" in its name, who has done bad things in his life, and make him a puppet to get through.

Once this condition is met, the first human form transformed by the tiger spirit will look like this person.

So this tiger spirit waited and waited, and searched, and was stunned that he had not met anyone with the word "tiger" in his name for several years, or even someone who knew such a person... None.

Until I met these three members of the Peng family.

When the tiger spirit heard what happened to these three people, he was so happy. Yes, it’s Shao Shanhu. As long as he uses the rule of "the ghost looks for a substitute", even if it's three for one, I will definitely do it. Take it down.

It’s a pity that the tiger spirit has limited magic power. It can’t make these three ghosts transform into flesh and blood humanoids and go to Cangzhou, so it can only wait, and then it will go to Cangzhou in the first place. travelers, and then used a trick to get them to take the "belongings" of the three ghosts of the Peng family.

This is the scene where Dugu and his son stayed at Zhimaling at night and met three ghosts in their dream.

Tonight, if Dugu Sheng’s plan is followed, the tiger spirit’s matter may be settled.

Although the three ghosts of the Peng family are not very powerful, at midnight, when the Yin Qi is the strongest, three ghost objects attached to them were placed directly under Shao Shan's tiger bed, and Shao Shan Tiger has indeed done a lot of bad things, and the probability of him being killed in his dream is extremely high.

Anyway, the Peng family would not hesitate to find a substitute and take revenge on Shao Shanhu.

Who would have known that after ninety-nine of the hundred miles, they would bump into Sun Yixie and Huang Donglai just one step away.

As soon as Dugu Sheng heard Huang Donglai's words, he immediately thought that his son had told him that Huang Donglai "really has the ability", so he quickly stepped forward, cupped his fists and handed over his hands: "Nephew Huang Shi, I heard that you are proficient in the art of yin and yang, does it seem true?"

"Uh... you know a little bit." Huang Donglai didn't know what the other party was doing, so he didn't dare to talk too much.

"Okay, okay, okay...then please take a step to speak." Dugu Sheng seemed to have found a life-saving straw, holding Huang Donglai's hand and leaving.

Not long after, a few people turned from the middle of the street to an empty space with no one around. Dugu Sheng deliberately put the few things wrapped in black cloth a few feet away... as if he was afraid of being stolen. It sounded the same, and then he lowered his voice and talked about their father and son's experience in Zhimaling with Shuangxie.

After Huang Donglai listened, he thought for a while and then said in a rather casual tone: "How about calling the three of them out and asking?"

"What a dick. , This is a call for spirits in the middle of the night, right?" Sun Yixie became anxious when he heard that Huang Donglai was going to do this kind of trick again, "You can see that they are not human, so can you believe what they say? Wouldn't it be over if you burn those things?"

"That's hard to say~" Huang Donglai said, "Just because a ghost is a ghost, it doesn't mean that there is no truth in his mouth. The virtues of the Shao family and his son... We have all heard Xiao Lin mention it once or twice. Even people like Xiao Lin who don't like to talk behind their backs can describe them like that. So I guess the descriptions of these scoundrels are not all true. It's fake...it's better to ask."

Seeing Huang Donglai's confident tone, Sun Yixie suddenly felt a little bit behind-the-scenes: "Well...it's completely true. It seems that these three ghosts are very weak. Even if they fall out, you are not afraid, right?"

"Tsk..." Huang Donglai curled his lips, "Can't it be because I am strong?? "

"Heh..." Sun Yixie sneered, "Okay, you can be stronger, you can be stronger, I believe it. "

After these two guys said these words, they were right, but Dugu Sheng was a little bit weak. He thought to himself, are these two guys reliable? Don't let my son be fooled by them, right? ?

Of course, he has doubts because he doesn’t understand Shuang Xie. If he knew even 30% of how badass these two people were, he would definitely make the same judgment as Sun Yixie. .

On the other side, Huang Donglai said a few words to Dugu and his son, and then walked towards the objects wrapped in black cloth alone.

Why? Alone? The other three are a little timid. Since he is not afraid, let him handle it alone.

Huang Donglai walked to the big wooden box, untied the black cloth, and then Then he took out the broken harp, belt and lantern and placed them in a dark corner where a month's light could not reach. Then he didn't do anything like making incantations and said directly: "Come out and have a chat." Bar. "

Those three ghosts were really obedient. As soon as Huang Donglai finished speaking, the figures of the three Peng family members immediately appeared in the shadows, but their figures were all dim and insubstantial.< /p>

Everyone must be able to see that the three ghosts of the Peng family are indeed very weak, including the tiger spirit who controls their lives. When they face someone like Huang Donglai who has a certain amount of power, When you are a person, you don’t dare to resist at all.

“Master Dao, please spare us, we are also forced! "This was the first thing Peng Ying said when she met Huang Donglai. As she spoke, the three of them knelt down, and then they started crying and howling, begging for mercy and complaining, which caused quite a scene.

Huang Donglai He also used bluffs and threats to force the three of them to tell them clearly what should be said and what should not be said.

Then, Huang Donglai asked the three of them to return to their respective places. He packed it up and took it back to the other three people.

"What do you say? Seeing that Huang Donglai seemed to have settled the matter, Sun Yixie asked.

"It's nothing. I'll just take the things to the temple and find a monk to chant sutras for salvation early tomorrow morning." "Huang Dong said back and forth.

"Huh? So simple? When Dugu Yong heard this, he couldn't help but wonder, "Dong Lai, didn't you say they were 'ghosts'?" What should be controlling them behind the scenes? Don't you need to worry about it? "

"After the salvation is over, all the souls have passed away to heaven, and the control has ceased. Huang Dong said back and forth, "Don't worry, with that tiger spirit's ability... its claws can't reach that far. In fact, if you knew the secret, you could have found a temple to do this long ago, but let alone you, that's all." The three ghosts themselves don’t even know. "

"Eh? So, is the fact that they were persecuted by Shao Shanhu true or false? "Duguyong asked again.

"It should be true... Anyway, I heard that what Shao Shanhu did is at least 80% true. "Huang Donglai said, "But we can't just fulfill the evildoer just to punish that Shao Shanhu, right?? ”

On this point, Huang Donglai’s thinking is still clear, because in this regard, Xuanqi Sect has a sect rule related to “Five Thunder Extermination”, and he was almost executed last time.< /p>

"Well..." After hearing what they said, Dugu Yong said nothing more and could only say, "It's an advantage for him. ”

“Harm, there is nothing cheap or cheap. If this person really does a lot of injustice, there will be retribution sooner or later.” Huang Donglai answered, "If God doesn't punish you, we can still look for opportunities...right, Brother Sun?" "As he said that, he started talking to Sun Yixie.

"That's...if we really want to get him, it won't take more than a minute..." Sun Yixie also took up the topic and said it on the spot.

But in fact, their attitude was somewhat selfish.

After arriving in Cangzhou, they had heard about it: it turned out. After the meeting of the Seven Heroes, Shao Dejin spread a lot of rumors about their Hunyuan Star Gate, and many bad words were clearly aimed at Lin Yuancheng... but only a limited number of people believed them.

So both sides. The relationship between Xie and the Shao family is similar to the relationship between the Cao Clan and the Zhengyi Sect: although on the surface they are ranked among the four sects and the third gang, they are considered allies, but secretly they are enemies who will open the champagne immediately if something happens to the other party.

“Get him? "But when Brother Sun's words fell into Dugu Yong's ears, the latter felt that they had a different flavor. Combined with the "thing" that Shuang Xie and others did when they were at Wujian Villa, Dugu Yong's expression suddenly changed, " Are you trying to take him..."

"Hey, if you have anything to say, let's talk about it later in a different place tomorrow. "Fortunately, at this time, Dugu Sheng felt that his son seemed to be getting into some muddy water due to a slip of the tongue again, so he quickly interrupted him.

This Lao Deng still has rich experience in the world - many things, even if you If you have a 100% inference, don't say it casually in front of others, because if your inference is correct, even if they don't admit it on the spot, they will still treat you as one of the "insiders" and get you into trouble. Trouble.

In this way, these few people briefly discussed which temple they would meet at tomorrow morning, and then went their separate ways.

Dugu and his son didn't dare to sleep that night. They took their things back to the inn and put them in an empty guest room. As for themselves, they ran to another guest room and sat waiting for dawn.

Because he was awake, Dugu Sheng took advantage of these few hours to inquire with Dugu Yong in detail about the things in Wujian Villa, and he also gained a deeper understanding of Shuangxiong.

In this way, the next day, when it was bright, the father and son went downstairs to have breakfast, and then hurriedly carried the suitcase to the place agreed on last night.

This Cangzhou is not a small place, it is not difficult to find a decent large temple

Duguyong and his son were in place at Chenshi, but they did not dare to do anything on their own until Sishi. , Shuangxi appeared with a yawn, and they entered the temple together.

How to explain to the monk next, how to conduct this ritual, and how to donate the incense money, these are the two "experts" Sun and Huang.

This little thing can't be done all morning, because they don't need to be present when the specific thing is done, so they just leave after the arrangements are made.

When they arrived outside the temple, both Dugu and his son felt that a spiritual burden had been lifted, and they felt relaxed. They were also very grateful to Shuangxie.

But Dugu Sheng also knew in his heart that he really owed these two boys a favor this time, and he would have to pay it back in the future.

As for Sun and Huang, they also kept this in mind, because they also had to remind themselves that from now on, they had one more person in the area of ​​Nazhimaling. Enemies, it is best to find an opportunity to deal with it in the future, otherwise you may one day encounter the same unpreventable danger as in Dengzhou.

As for the Shao family and his son, there was no need to worry too much, because not long after, Shao Dejin and Shao Shanhu had another conflict with Sun Huang due to another matter.
