Bureau of Anomalous Biological Countermeasures Chapter 387: Yin people take the road

Until the banquet was over, the white-haired man never appeared again. His Royal Highness Cheng Yaojin was inconvenient to send each other next to his identity, so he asked his representative to send the Tang envoy out of the palace. After Abe Nakamaro and Seimei's uncle and nephew got into the carriage, the butler returned to resume his orders.

After hearing that the two Japanese people had left in the carriage, Bai Wuqiu said to his 'biological father': "I like this Japanese person named Chaoheng, do you see how he acts like a fisherman? The raw fish from Guangzhi’s Baidao is still delicious. If it wasn’t for the fear of embarrassing you, I would have asked him to make two more big fish just now.”

At this time, Xiao Ren San joined in the fun: "The eldest nephew is right, have you heard the story of Chao Heng and their Japanese country? A country the size of their palm has been plagued by volcanoes, earthquakes and tsunamis year after year. .Tell me how much evil you have done in your previous life to be sent to the Japanese country to be reborn?"

"It seems that this envoy to the Tang Dynasty really has a demon predestined relationship..."

After Cheng Yaojin laughed, he turned to Guibugui and said, "If your old man is still worried, my son, I will send someone to invite the two owners of the Surabaya to go to the Japanese country to check this Abe Zhongmalu. details.”

"It's just a small Japanese envoy to the Tang Dynasty, there's no need for this..." After Gui Bugui smiled, he waved at Cheng Yaojin, and then continued: "Don't worry about your uncle, there are many coincidences in the world. ."

Although I didn't ask the two owners of the Surabaya to investigate, I still sent someone to investigate what Chao Heng had done after he came to Chang'an City. The people he sent came back to report that after the Japanese came to the capital, in addition to going to the imperial palace to see His Majesty the Emperor, he gathered with celebrities from all walks of life in Chang'an City. From dignitaries to nobles, down to Abe Nakamaro, a trader and pawn, all of them were handed in.

Combined with his generous spending, he soon had a great reputation. Recently, dignitaries and dignitaries in the capital are meeting guests. If this Japanese person is absent from the table, the layout will be much smaller.

In addition to hanging out with these responsible people, Chaoheng is also very interested in the monks in the capital. After coming to Chang'an, I kept asking about the temple where the incense was the most prosperous, and from time to time I also asked local eminent monks to debate the Dharma. In the end, he simply lived in the famous Great Buddha Temple in the capital. Because of the sudden fame, the presiding monk was not difficult for him, and even reserved a special room for Chaoheng.

In addition to hanging out with the responsible people every day, he stayed in the Great Buddha Temple and listened to the monks chanting. Other than that, there was nothing unusual, and the half-eldest boy named Seimei followed Chaoheng like a servant, and he had never heard of him using magic tricks.

After investigating for a few days and found nothing unusual, Cheng Yaojin withdrew the following people. It seemed that Chao Heng was just a familiar dispatcher to the Tang Dynasty.

More than half a month passed, just when the few of them and the demons almost forgot that there was another Japanese envoy to the Tang Dynasty. Rumors of haunting suddenly spread from Chang'an City... First, a group of night guards saw a few vague figures near the Vermillion Bird Gate. When they saw someone coming out in the middle of the night, they had to take it back and be punished. What I didn't expect was when this team of Imperial Forest Army arrived. These figures escaped through the wall, and the last person was a dead face with half a rotten face. The frightened Imperial Forest Army shouted, and two people in the team of twelve were frightened and fainted on the spot.

Not long after that, rumors of hauntings spread out in every corner of Chang'an City. There was a young couple who had just married and were sleeping in the middle of the night when they suddenly saw a group of figures passing through the wall from outside the house. These people wear cracked shrouds, and they don't look like living people. Fortunately, these figures were not so difficult for them. After passing in from the east wall, they exited from the west wall. But even so, it still stuns the bride.

The rest of the things are the same, nothing more than seeing a ghost in the middle of the night. After it was passed on to Cheng Wangfu, Cheng Yaojin also took these things as a joke and told Wu Mian and whether he returned or not: "Now I see There are more and more people haunted, but fortunately there is no major incident.

"It sounds like a yin person borrowing a way, but once all this happened near the burial mound, I have never heard of such a thing directly appearing in the capital." Gui Bugui listened to Cheng Yaojin. Hehe smiled, and then continued: "If it is the yin who borrowed the way, there is no need to do this, it will be over in a few days..."

Different from Gui Bugui's expectations, it didn't take long for the haunting in Chang'an City to spread, and the incident finally became a big one.

One morning, when Cheng Yaojin and the crowd and the demon were having breakfast, the housekeeper in the palace came in with a chubby eunuch.

At first glance, this **** is in a hurry, and there is no time for the housekeeper to come in in advance to report. After seeing Cheng Yaojin, the fat **** knelt directly in front of Cheng Yaojin and said with a trembling voice, "Little man Gao Lishi, I have been ordered by the emperor to invite King Cheng and several immortals to the palace. Please hurry up. Go, it's late, I'm afraid something big will happen..."

After finishing speaking, regardless of what Cheng Yaojin had to say, the Gao Lishi rushed forward, grabbed King Cheng's sleeve, and dragged him to the outside. The appearances of Wu Mian and Gui Gui have long been known in Chang'an City. Although Gao Lishi had never seen these people, he looked at the little white face who rolled his eyes, and the old and disrespectful old guy next to him. Knowing who they were, he dragged Cheng Yaojin to the side of them, then knelt on the ground and said, "In addition to the strange things in the palace, please invite a few immortals to the palace. If it's too late, I'm afraid ..."

"I just heard the old man that something is going to happen. Then don't talk nonsense..." After Cheng Yaojin smiled, he glanced at Wu Mian next to him, and then the two walked towards the gate of the palace in good agreement. In the past, Guangzhi and the two monsters followed along.

When I saw the gate, I didn't see any carriages, but there were a few war horses that looked like horses of a thousand miles. Gao Lishi brought a warhorse with his own hand, accompanied a smiling face and said to several people and demons: "It's too late to take a carriage, His Majesty has authorized a few horses to go to the palace..."

"Lux, what's going on here? The trouble is so serious?" Cheng Yaojin himself was born in the King of Mountains, and he is familiar with horseback riding. It's just that he wondered what happened in the palace, so that the emperor could at least send eunuchs to summon him so early.

"My grandfather Cheng Wang, I don't have time to go into details, so get on the horse first. Let's talk while walking along the way." At this time, Gao Lishi was already sweating profusely, and Cheng Yaojin had no choice but to get on his horse.

Wait until Gao Lishi wants to invite Wu Mian and Gui Bugui to ride on horses together. Only then did he realize that the few people and demons who had been in front of him had disappeared without a trace.

Now all hope is pinned on these immortals. They disappeared, and Gao Lishi almost cried out in a hurry. At this time, Cheng Yaojin laughed and said, "Let's go, the old immortals in our family have already arrived at the palace, they are immortals, naturally they will not be these mortal horses. Lux, let's go our way, we won't delay business."

With Cheng Yaojin, Gao Lishi was more or less relieved. At the moment, surrounded by several guards, he and Cheng Yaojin flew towards the palace on horseback.

Although Cheng Yaojin's riding skills are pure, but Gao Lishi's riding skills are not very good. At the moment, Lao Cheng could only control the speed of the reins himself, and just took this opportunity to ask Gao Lishi what happened in the palace.

Anyway, if he didn't say it, King Cheng would know it right away. After Gao Lishi sighed, he said: "King Cheng doesn't know anything, there was a murderous ghost in the palace tonight, and Han Guiren was scared to death on the spot. A palace maid beside her was also terrified. After that ferocious ghost scared Han Guiren to death, he wandered in the palace again, and even the current sage saw it for himself..."

The words of Gao Lishi are still hugged and said. Last night, Li Longji originally planned to spoil Han Guiren. Li Longji didn't know Han Guiren in advance, and planned to arrive suddenly to surprise his concubine Yuan.

Just before he brought the accompanying guards and palace servants to the palace where Han nobles lived, the emperor himself told everyone to retreat, and when he walked to the gate and was about to push the door to enter, suddenly a message came from the gate. There was a scream, and then the door was knocked open from the inside, and a Specter covered in blood rushed out from the inside.

Li Longji was unprepared, and the mahogany door slammed directly on his forehead. The emperor was knocked unconscious on the spot, and the guards who accompanied him did not dare to stop Gui Li. After being dispersed by Li Gui, he remembered the emperor who fainted on the ground. Then he hurried over to tell Li Longji to wake up.

After the Emperor woke up, he could still see the figure of the Specter who had fled into the distance. He saw it ran directly to the palace wall in the distance. Under the eyes of everyone, it passed through the wall and disappeared. in front of the crowd.

At this time, the palace maid's miserable cry sounded in the palace, and Li Longji remembered that his concubine Yuan was still in the palace. Immediately, with the help of everyone, I went in to check, and I saw Han Guiren collapsed on the brocade bed naked. One of her two close-fitting maids sat on the ground with dull eyes, while the other kept yelling, as if the Specter was still in the palace just now.

At that moment, the emperor hurriedly ordered the Taoist priests in the palace to come and chase the ghost. A few Taoist priests were busy until dawn, reporting to Li Longji that the ghosts had been expelled from the palace, and they had pasted ghost-expelling charms in front of the palace gates to ensure that no such ghosts would appear in the palace in the future.

Although these Taoists, who were usually responsible for praying for the emperor and alchemy, patted their chests to assure, but thinking of the scene last night, Li Longji's heart was still beating non-stop. As soon as he closed his eyes, he saw the blood-covered Specter pounce on him last night. At this time, I remembered that Cheng Yaojin also raised a few living gods as disciples. He grew up listening to their myths and stories since he was a child. With them, he was better than these ordinary Taoist priests.

So it happened that Gao Lishi asked someone to meet him in the early morning. Cheng Yaojin heard it strange, and said to him immediately: "Father-in-law is His Majesty's close friend, and he must have accompanied him when Li Gui appeared last night. Your Majesty's side. Tell me, Lao Cheng, what kind of ghost can scare His Majesty like this."

Hearing King Cheng ask here, Gao Lishi gave a wry smile and said, "King Cheng, I have always served by His Majesty's side, but last night, His Majesty sent me to Concubine Mei to deliver Haibao Ambergris. He was not by His Majesty's side when the accident happened, but I heard from the little ones that when the Specter appeared, his hair was disheveled, and his whole body was covered in blood. Especially his face was even worse, as if he had just eaten someone."

Cheng Yaojin cooperated with a surprised expression, and then continued: "How good is such a powerful evil ghost? Didn't the father-in-law ask for the number of palace servants?"

"How dare you not investigate such a big thing? I didn't do anything after the accident, I've been counting the roster..." When he was talking, Gao Lishi glanced at Cheng Yaojin and felt that the matter behind was the double king. Sooner or later you will know. At the moment, I simply said everything: "Last night, there were seven thousand nine hundred and sixty-three people in the palace, including guards, eunuchs, empresses, palace servants, and servants. Little... It seems that even if the ghost eats people, it is not eaten in the palace..."

Next, Cheng Yaojin asked a few more details about what happened last night. However, this Gao Lishi only heard about it, and did not ask any useful information. Not long after, they rode to the gate of the palace.

With Li Longji's special decree, Gao Lishi took Cheng Yaojin straight into the palace. Before entering the palace gate, Gao Lishi also specifically asked the guards guarding the gate, if he had seen a few strange people enter. I didn't get the news of Wu Mian, the people who did not return, and the demon entering the palace, but I learned that not long ago, Guangxiao, an eminent monk living in the Great Buddha Temple, brought a few people from the Japanese envoy Abe Zhongma Lu into the palace. After hearing that it was him who went to invite King Cheng, the emperor thought of this monk again, and immediately sent someone to invite Guang Xiao to the palace together. Because the Great Buddha Temple is relatively close, Guangxiao and others arrived first.

By the time Gao Lishi took Cheng Yaojin to meet Li Longji, the emperor was already full of people. The monk Guangxiao, who had not seen him for a long time, was saying to the emperor: "Your Majesty, when the monk entered the palace just now, he did not see any signs of ghosts in the palace. Moreover, all the gates were also affixed with spirit charms to exorcise ghosts. I want to come. Those ghosts don't dare to enter the palace anymore. And the empress has already woken up, so there should be no more serious problems."

When Li Longji first entered Chang'an, Cheng Yaojin showed his face intentionally. At the moment, Lao Cheng did not make a sound, mixed in the crowd, listening to the conversation between the emperor and Guangxiao. Dare to love this monk Guangxiao for such a short time, he actually rescued the deceased Han Guiren. This empress was only frightened, and her soul left the body for a short time, so she looked like a dead person.

Even if Monk Guangxiao doesn't do anything, the soul will return to its own body after a long time.

Guang Xiao said that all the sects had also put on ghost-repelling charms, and when the effect was considered good, the Taoist priests next to them seemed a little smug, thinking that they were the few people who were busy exorcising ghosts all night last night. Bu Cheng Yaojin watched in the crowd for a long time, but Wu Mian and Gui Gui did not see any of them. Thinking about it, they were inconvenient to show up after seeing Guang Xiao appear.

Li Longji is still in shock now. After listening to the monk's words, he nodded several times and then said: "Master said that there have been rumors of haunting in the capital in recent days, and I am also uneasy. Please send the Buddha to the West. , the matter of exorcising ghosts in the capital also asks the master to take action, for the sake of the people of Limin, it must not be shied away."

"The monk must do his best, please don't worry, Your Majesty." After Guang Xiao smiled slightly, just as he was about to say something, he suddenly heard the Japanese envoy standing behind him say: "Your Majesty, the foreign minister felt that yesterday The events of the night may have nothing to do with ghosts. What Your Majesty may see may not necessarily be ghosts..."

"Woman, do you have the right to speak here?" Hearing this Japanese man say it wasn't haunted last night, why was he busy until dawn? Immediately, the leading Taoist took a step forward, stared at the Japanese envoy named Chaoheng and continued: "I saw with my own eyes that the empress was almost scared to death, is there a fake?"

Chaoheng smiled at the Taoist priest, and then said to the emperor sitting on it: "Your Majesty the Emperor of Tang, the foreign ministers have private matters to tell your majesty. It is about the honor and disgrace of the foreign ministers. Please tell your majesty to retire the unrelated people and give them to you. Foreign ministers have a face."

Li Longji is also a talented and intelligent monarch, but he was frightened by ghosts last night, so he asked people to stay by his side. He wanted to use these people to gain yang energy and force the ghosts to dare not approach. Now that I heard this Japanese man say this, it seemed that there was something in his words.

At the moment, I ordered people to retire the irrelevant ministers, leaving only the monk Guangxiao, and a few Taoist priests and their personal guards to stay here, and listen to what the Japanese people have to say.

"Is that King Cheng? You stay too. You are the founding father of the country. I have not concealed anything from you here." Among the crowd, Cheng Yaojin and Gao Lishi were seen mixed in. Li Longji hurriedly stopped Lao Cheng, and rarely rewarded him with a seat. Apart from him, the people sitting in the palace now are His Royal Highnesses. Even the eminent monk Guangxiao did not get a seat.

After seeing that all the people who were supposed to leave had left the palace, Chao Heng continued: "Your Majesty, please forgive the foreign ministers, what His Majesty saw last night was not a ghost, but a living person."

"Nonsense! Last night our fellow apprentices went to exorcise the ghosts in person, and there was a ghostly aura there. What else could it be if it wasn't a ghost?" Hearing the Japanese straight-forward to deny that it was a ghost last night, the leading Taoist priest immediately turned his face.

At this time, Li Longji, who was sitting on the throne, smiled slightly and said, "Master Li and Zhongdao, let Mr. Abe continue. I saw it with my own eyes last night. If there is anything wrong, I will personally refute it for you."

After listening to the emperor's words, the Taoist priest named Li Hezhong closed his mouth. On the other side, Hirotaka smiled and said nothing, waiting for Abe Nakamaro's words.

"Since Specter can pass through walls? Why push the door and come out to frighten Your Majesty?

It doesn't know where the world is, and does Xie Chong have nowhere to hide? "
