Liaozhai Great Sage

Chapter 644
Du Wen was terrified.

He was sitting on a chair holding a teacup in his hand, and couldn't help shaking.

This kind of fear is better than the way he faced demons and ghosts before. It feels like he has reached the brink of collapse, as if an important support in his heart collapsed in an instant, and the whole person has lost the meaning of life. .

No, Li Xiuyuan can feel that this description is not enough to describe his current inner mood.

"Have a cup of hot tea. If there is something to calm down, you have to explain the reason clearly when you ask me for help. Otherwise, how can I save you? Of course, the premise is that this disaster is not caused by your own sins. If I Hearing that it was you who bullied men and women, I will let you
People throw you out of the Escort. "

Li Xiuyuan said calmly, with a cold attitude, but he did not refuse his call for help.

Du Wen tremblingly raised the tea cup and put it to his mouth to take a sip, but the tea in the cup spilled on his body when he shook his palm.

Seeing this, Li Xiuyuan already had a rough guess in his heart, and said slowly: "I opened your eyes for you when you left. Although you haven't reached the level of heavenly eyes, you can still recognize ghosts and ghosts. You are now scared. After running back like this, I'm afraid I saw something extraordinary. Yes

Monster? "

"I, I..." Du Wen's lips moved slightly, his expression pale; "My father is a little abnormal."

"Your father? Du Ze, Minister of Criminal Justice?" Li Xiuyuan said.

He had paid close attention to the servants of the six departments of the imperial court before, Fu Tianchou from the Ministry of War, Du Ze from the Ministry of Punishment, Zhang Yuan, the servant of the Ministry of Officials who had been knocked off by him when there were two stone lions at the door, and the Minister of Zhongshu. Master Yang, his son Yang Shangshi was beheaded by himself in Jinling City.

"He, he's not my father, and his appearance is definitely not normal." Du Wen said with a face full of fear.

Li Xiuyuan took a sip of tea and said, "You have the ability to see through ghosts, so you saw your father's anomaly when you went home? An anomaly that doesn't seem human, what anomaly did you see in your father?"

"Eyes, his eyes are not human eyes, without pupils, they are pitch-black. Monster, he is a monster, absolutely can't be my father, my father doesn't have that kind of demeanor." Du Wen said, looking excited and scared.

He has an unimaginable consequence in his heart, that is, if the father in the family is a fake, then where is his real father?
Maybe it has been eaten by monsters.

This is what he is really afraid of.

Monster?

Li Xiuyuan's eyes moved slightly, but he did not suspect that Du Wen's words were lies.

But considering the seriousness of this matter.

The Minister of the Ministry of Punishments is a court minister with real power in his hands. People in this position cannot be murdered by ghosts and gods. Like Tianqiu, I went to Jinling City and walked around, but I didn't see any ghosts and gods trying to murder him.

He, it's just that when his official career was sluggish, his daughter Fu Qingfeng was pestered by sick ghosts.

In the same way, if this Du Ze really has a problem, then it's not just one person's problem.

But the entire capital, the entire imperial court, and the entire Song Dynasty have problems.

"You are also tired today, rest first, and follow me to your house in the evening to see what is going on with your father." Li Xiuyuan said.

"Many, thank you Mr. Li, you, I will never forget your kindness in this life."

Du Wen, the dandy disciple, was so grateful that he knelt down in front of him again with a plop, offering such a great gift.

Li Xiuyuan said; "I have accepted your kneeling ceremony, so I will try my best to help you, but you must know that there are not many people in the capital who dare to disturb your father's muddy water, but I am one of them. You should Fortunately, my blessings are profound, and in the future, don’t look for flowers and ask willows, windy and snowy nights,

You have compromised your blessings, otherwise I saved you this time, and you will still be unlucky next time. "

"Young Master Li's words will be kept in mind." Du Wen said sincerely.

His words are not false, this Du Wen is indeed very blessed, from his birth, it can be seen that he was born with a wealth of life, official luck, wealth luck, everything is not lacking, this should be due to the accumulation of blessings in his previous life.

It's a pity that Li Xiuyuan doesn't have the book of life and death in the capital, and he can't see Du Wen's past and present lives.

A few hours later, night fell.

The lights in the capital are still brightly lit, and this bustling place is endless day and night.

But at this moment, Li Xiuyuan had just finished meditating and walked out of the bedroom.

He was wearing the same brocade clothes as usual, and at the same time, he was wearing a golden red satin-like cloak, which emitted a layer of light under the light, which was extraordinary, and a simple and majestic sword hung on his waist, like Spring and Autumn period style.

"The capital city at night is always restless. It's the same as Jinling City. Even the emperor can't control this city?" Li Xiuyuan looked up at the sky.

But it was dark clouds and the moon closed, it was dark, and there was no starlight at all.

"Mr. Li, is he going out so late?"

Suddenly, Xiao Xie's figure floated out from the opposite room, with a pair of weak eyes showing a bit of worry.

"Yeah, I'm in a hurry, did you bother Miss Xie?" Li Xiuyuan asked.

"I am the body of a ghost, how can I be disturbed, but tonight I feel that the surrounding area is very dark, I am afraid that some evil spirits will take the opportunity to come out, Mr. Li, it is better not to go out at night as much as possible." Xiao Xie said.

Li Xiuyuan smiled and said: "I can stay out, but the people in the capital must not stay out. They don't know that there will be evil spirits coming out tonight."

"Miss Xiao Xie left first, I will take Miss Xiao Xie's reminder to heart."

Xiao Xie watched Li Xiuyuan leave, but didn't stop him.

She was just a little female ghost, how could she stop such a character from doing what she wanted to do.

Soon, Li Xiuyuan went out.

He only took Han Meng and Wu Xiang as guards, and the others did not.

Because it is not necessary.

He did this time to find out the identity of Du Ze, the servant of the Ministry of Justice, not to prevent the assassin from being assassinated.

"Du Wen, let's go and visit your house." Li Xiuyuan said.

Du Wen, who had been waiting anxiously in the lobby, saw Li Xiuyuan coming out, and he couldn't wait to go up to him: "Mr. Li, please lead the way. This time, Mr. Li is here to help."

Li Xiuyuan smiled and said, "You put away your dandy temper only because you asked me for it. If you can keep this attitude, I think you are worthy of praise."

Du Wen thought a little when he heard the words.

Soon, the four of them walked along the street directly to the mansion of the minister of punishment.

The residences of imperial officials are roughly in the same seat, not far apart.

When Li Xiuyuan passed by the mansion of the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, he casually glanced at the stone lion at the door of the Minister of the Ministry of Officials.

There is no spirituality, there are cracks.

At the same time, there is a gloomy air hanging over the house, as if the popularity is not enough, a bit eerie.

"This is a sign of decline." Li Xiuyuan thought to himself.

But when a few people passed by the intersection in front, they suddenly heard the sound of gongs and drums, and at the same time, a cold wind kept whistling, rolling up the dust and fallen leaves on the ground, making people almost I can't keep my eyes open.
"Why is the wind so strong at this intersection?"

Du Wen covered his face with his sleeves and squinted his eyes for a look, but saw a group of servants walking towards here unsteadily carrying a sedan chair with gongs and drums along the way.

"Who showed up at such a late hour? Don't you think it's noisy all the way?"

This team of servants carrying the sedan chair seemed to be walking slowly, but in fact they were very fast. The servants in front came to Du Wen in a few breaths.

The servant was pale, wearing paper clothes, exuding a smell of ashes, as if he was going to bump into Du Wen as he kept walking.

Li Xiuyuan's eyes narrowed slightly, he stretched out his hand to grab Du Wen, and pulled Du Wen from the middle of the road: "The ghost servant is carrying the sedan chair, there are ghosts and gods traveling, what are you doing at the intersection, you must be hit by such a mortal body It's about knocking away souls, you can see ghosts and gods now, can't this distinguish you?
Don't you have any strength? "

What?Is that a group of ghosts?

Du Wen was stunned for a moment, and then his hands and feet became cold from fright.

No wonder those servants all had expressionless faces, their faces were either gray or dead black, and their complexion didn't look like a living person, but a dead person.

"The land of the capital, at the foot of the Son of Heaven, dare to let ghost servants walk out with such fanfare, beating gongs and drums along the way, what kind of ghosts and gods can behave like this? Don't you be afraid of the eminent monks and Taoists you meet on the way?" Did you take them all away?" Li Xiuyuan frowned.

He wanted to stop the ghost sedan chair to see what happened, but thinking of the purpose of today's trip, he decided to give up for the time being.

There are already a lot of ghosts and spirits in the capital, let's deal with things one by one, there is no need to make extra troubles.

"Let's go," Li Xiuyuan shook his head and ignored it.

Du Wen said: "Mr. Li, don't you know how to catch ghosts and eliminate demons? Don't you just let them go?"

Li Xiuyuan smiled and said: "There are ghosts and gods in the world, and there are spirits and monsters in the living beings. This is an unavoidable thing. There are more ghosts and gods in the world, and the evil spirits in the underworld are endless. Not all demons must be eliminated, not all Ghosts will be caught, and others will carry sedan chairs to travel. Although it is a little tricky, but
The others didn't do much, so arresting them like this, isn't it a little too much? "

"And even if you want to take care of it, the timing is not right now. Don't you think these brats are more important than a servant of the Ministry of Justice?"

When Du Wen thought of his weird father, he immediately became terrified. He stopped talking and just led the way with his head sullen.

But when Li Xiuyuan turned to leave, the ghost sedan turned around for some reason, and then followed from behind.

The strange music of Chuichuidada sounded, from far to near, and Du Wen was terrified when he heard it. He looked back and said in horror: "Then, that group of ghosts has caught up."

Almost subconsciously, he ran away.

Li Xiuyuan frowned, stopped in his footsteps, turned around and stood in the middle of the road watching the ghost servant walking towards him.
