Liaozhai Great Sage

Chapter 52 Zhuge Wolong
After the two ghost guards took Li Xiuyuan's calligraphy and shooed away the two gatekeeper lions in front of the prison, they entered the prison without hindrance.

The prison in Guobei County is not big, but there are guards.

An old jailer was yawning at this time, taking a nap on a wooden table with a dim oil lamp beside him.

But at this moment, a gust of wind blew past, and the flame of the oil lamp flickered. It seemed that it might go out at any time, but it didn't go out after all. After the wind passed by, the flame of the oil lamp returned to normal.

When the old jailer who was taking a nap was blown by the dark wind, he fell asleep even more, and he was afraid that he would not wake up until the rooster crowed.

"Li Dafu, Li Dafu~!"

A faint voice gradually approached, but there was no way to figure it out, as if it had no source, it just appeared out of thin air.

I listened carefully, but I couldn't hear the sound.

The prisoners in the sleeping cells didn't notice at all, they just turned around and continued to sleep soundly.

"Li Dafu, where are you?" The voice sounded again, penetrating through every cell, and finally fell into a cell.

In this prison cell, a fat middle-aged man was lying on the straw mat and fell asleep at the moment. This person was none other than the master of the Li family, Li Dafu.

"Who, who is calling me?" Li Dafu woke up in a daze, but he wanted to open his eyes, but he couldn't open them no matter what.

I just felt that my eyelids were extremely heavy, and I couldn't move my body.

However, Li Dafu forced himself to open his eyelids, and finally saw two official servants wearing yamen uniforms standing next to him. When it was clear which jailer it was, in the end, I only saw one of the two guards with a blue face and the other with a black face. As for the face, it was hazy and I couldn't see clearly.

"It's Li Dafu right." The black-faced ghost messenger said.

"Let him sleep, lest Mr. Li will scold us for scaring Mr. Li again. We can't afford to offend Mr. Li."

"It's true, but this Mr. Li is so different that he is not afraid of us ghosts and gods at all. On the contrary, we have a feeling of trepidation in front of Mr. Li, which is a few points more majestic than Lord Chenghuang."

While talking, the blue-faced ghost messenger blew another breath and let Li Dafu fall into a deep sleep.

"Are they sent by my son?" Li Dafu had only one thought before falling asleep.

"Hey, where is the foolish ghost? This Li Dafuyang has a very long lifespan, and he is not yet ready to die. Don't randomly arrest the wrong soul again." Suddenly at this time, in the cell opposite, A somewhat playful voice suddenly sounded.

"Someone saw us?" The two ghosts were taken aback.

Looking back, he saw a middle-aged man in the prison cell who was wearing a tattered gown and looked like a scholar sitting by the wall and looking at the two of them.

The man's hair was dirty and messy, and it looked like he hadn't washed it in years.

"Who are you, how can you see me waiting for ghosts?"

The black-faced ghost came striding forward, walked directly through the cell door, and walked in front of this dirty man.

"It's so strange to see ghosts and gods. There are many people in this world who can see you. Why should you care about me? I advise you to choose someone if you want to keep your soul. You can't hold Li Dafu's soul." The dirty smelly man said.

The ghost messenger with a blue face came over and sized him up, but he saw that although this person was extremely filthy, his eyes were bright and energetic, and his writing above his head was full of energy, with all kinds of meanings, reasons, and words constantly fluctuating, vaguely connecting heaven and earth. Even if he is a ghost messenger, if he wants to investigate again, he will only feel a dazzling light shining down from the sky, preventing him from continuing to watch this person.

"He is actually a real scholar, rare, rare, I have met Mr.." He was startled immediately, and cupped his hands.

The black-faced ghost messenger also noticed this, put away his contempt, and became a lot more respectful.

"I'm a prisoner, and I don't deserve the respect of you ghosts and gods. Let's go, let's go, don't disturb my sleep. If you want to find a substitute for the dead ghost, go to the No. [-] cell over there. People are acting as scapegoats, this Li Dafu can't do it." The dirty man said.

"I'm not here to find a scapegoat."

"Ghosts believe you. The best thing you ghost messengers do is this kind of business. You take heavy bribes from others, resurrect people, and then go to this prison to find someone to work for the dead ghost. Tsk, it's the same in this world. If you make a lot of money to bribe the county Ling, the death penalty can also be replaced by someone else, hey, don't say it, don't say it, just keep sleeping and I will sleep."

The dirty and smelly man mocked a few words to himself, then stopped talking, turned around and fell asleep.

The two ghost guards glanced at each other, shook their heads, said nothing more, and exited the cell with one hand.

This is an unusual scholar, it's better not to provoke him.

Now that Li Dafu's situation has been investigated clearly, it's time to go back and deal with business.

Immediately, the two ghost messengers turned into a cloudy wind and disappeared into the prison.

After the two ghost messengers disappeared, the filthy middle-aged man muttered: "Why are these two ghost messengers so peaceful? They really didn't come to arrest the soul. When did the Li family show up?" Yes, even ghosts and gods can drive them. Hey, I think I, Zhuge Wolong, have read books for half my life, and I have some literary talent, but in the end I am in this prison, but two ghost guards called me sir."

"Are all people in the world really so ignorant? I'd rather let villains be in power than people with lofty ideals get fair treatment."

At this moment, two ghost messengers have arrived at the Li family's mansion.

"Meow~!"

Before they landed, they heard a meow, and a black cat stared at the two of them with its green eyes.

"Wow, what a psychic black cat, it scared me." The two ghosts were so startled that they didn't dare to approach the black cat, thinking that the black cat seemed to be more powerful than the lion in front of the yamen.

"A black cat is afraid, no wonder you two ghost messengers can't even hold the soul of Mistress Wang." In the lobby, Li Xiuyuan's voice sounded.

"I've met Mr. Li." The two ghost messengers saluted respectfully.

Li Xiuyuan said, "How is my father?"

"Master Li is fine at the moment." The green-faced ghost messenger said.

"I want to be honest. It's about my father's safety. I won't be as talkative as before. If you want to hide it, I invite you two ghosts to try my golden goose bow." Li Xiuyuan stared at it. Looking at them, he pointed to a big golden bow next to him.

"Mr. Li, this ordinary bow and arrow is useless to ghost messengers." The black-faced ghost messenger said so desperately.

Li Xiuyuan snorted coldly, without further ado, he drew his bow and shot.

"Hey~!"

The arrow flew over, but it didn't hit the black-faced ghost messenger, but just hit his feet.

However, the black-faced ghost messenger and the blue-faced ghost messenger flew out of the lobby directly, with a painful look on their faces, as if they had been hit hard by a sledgehammer, making people feel overwhelmed with pain.

"I just shot an arrow on you, and you are dead now."

Li Xiuyuan said: "I heard that when a person dies, he becomes a ghost, and when a ghost dies, he becomes a ghost. I don't know if this is true."

The two ghosts were shocked, and when they looked at Li Xiuyuan again, they were no longer respectful, but fearful and fearful.

Who is this person?One arrow has the power to kill ghosts and gods.
