Chapter 228 Luo Wanqing’s Madness
Inadvertently, another two days passed by in a blink of an eye.
In the past two days, Jiang Shouzhong occasionally accompanied Ran Qingchen to investigate cases, occasionally talked about life with Xia He, and sometimes accompanied his boss, Uncle Li, to hang out.
The days are rare and relaxing.
The sun was shining brightly at this moment, and Jiang Shouzhong was playing chess with Uncle Li.
Still at that tea stall.
Li Nanshuang was playing chess with the tea stall owner named "Old Man Qin", and the latter had lost three games in a row.
Same as before, every time the old man wanted to win, there were inexplicably fewer or more pieces on the chessboard.
Old Qin was so angry that he blew his beard and stared.
But when I saw the big knife next to the girl, I still endured it.
The girl at the tea stall was holding a book of poems as she did last time. Occasionally her eyes glanced at Jiang Shouzhong, expressing her girlish feelings.
"Hahahaha..."
After a moment, Uncle Li laughed invisibly to the sky, and dropped his stick, "Old man Qin, I'll give you one last ride!"
>
Old man Qin's eyes widened, "Why is there another chess piece?"
Li Nanshuang waved his hand and smiled: "It's normal for people to have dim eyesight when they are old. This time I specially gave you a few chess pieces. Bu, don’t say that I’m cheating again. Otherwise, I will really chop you with a knife.”
The girl waved her sword as a kind reminder.
Old Qin suppressed his blush.
“Alas, masters are as lonely as snow. In the face of absolute strength, you won’t lose unjustly.”
Li Nanshuang stood up and said, “Let’s go. I’ll torture you next time.”
The girl picked up the sword and left happily with Jiang Shouzhong.
Old Man Qin was cursing while packing up the chess pieces. He cursed but laughed again. He stroked his beard and said with emotion: "It's rare to see a little girl with such a pure heart. Shi Luoxia has taken on a good apprentice."
Seeing that his granddaughter was still staring at Jiang Shouzhong's back, Old Qin threw a chess piece over and said, "You're back, girl."
"Go back to you big-headed ghost!"
< br>The girl rolled her eyes at him angrily.
“Bring the chess pieces over here.” The old man stretched out his hand.
The girl picked up the chess pieces on the table, threw them into her mouth, chewed them a few times and then swallowed them.
Old man Qin said helplessly: "Girl, it's very expensive."
As if she was addicted to eating, the girl picked up the teacup and started eating again, and it sounded very crispy.
Not long after, even the poetry collection and teapot in his hand were eaten into his abdomen.
The girl burped lightly, touched her belly, and lay down on the table to sleep contentedly.
...
"Stew noodles, I will take you to Nanshan Lake for fishing tomorrow."
Li Nanshuang moved deftly and suggested to Jiang Shouzhong, "Fishing can make people smarter, 豼You see, I am so smart now and almost invincible at chess, just because I often fish."
Jiang Shouzhong couldn't help but complain: "This cannot be used as a reason for your failure as a boss."
“How can I show off?” Li Nanshuang was unhappy.
Jiang Shouzhong said expressionlessly:
“Anyway, when Lao Zhang and the others were hunting monsters, I rarely saw your boss, either playing chess, walking birds and fighting crickets, or going fishing. , I have never seen such a comfortable boss like you."
"I said, I am training you."
Li Nanshuang patted her bulging chest, looking very generous. The expression,
"You are so smart, Noodles, because I have trained you in secret. You should thank me. There is no need to give gifts or anything like that. Remember to play with me more in the future."< br>
"I really have met the best boss in the world." Jiang Shouzhong said with a smile.
"That's right."
The girl raised her head slightly, feeling proud.
The warm sunshine gently shines on the girl's fair dimples, like fine threads woven with gold, adding a bit of vitality.
“Oh, by the way, there is a lantern festival in Qingzhou tonight, would you like to go shopping with me?”
Li Nanshuang looked forward to it.
Jiang Shouzhong thought for a while and shook his head slightly, "No, there is something else."
"Oh."
Li Nanshuang was a little disappointed.
However, the girl has a free and easy temper, and she quickly regained her composure, patted the man on the shoulder and said: "Bao Noodles, I will make you a prayer lamp when the time comes. Tell me what you want. I will pray for you.”
"I don't believe in that stuff," Jiang Shouzhong said.
“You must believe it!”
Li Nanshuang tightened her beautiful little face, put her hands on her slender waist, and said seriously, “That thing is very effective. I remember that when I was a child, I promised I made a wish to become beautiful when I grow up, and it came true.”
“Well, boss, you are not humble at all.”
Jiang Shouzhong was amused.
Li Nanshuang bared his teeth, waved his pink fist fiercely and said: "What do you mean, braised noodles? Call me ugly, right? Look, you are asking for a beating!"
"Not ugly, not ugly, my boss is the best in the world. The most beautiful woman.”
Jiang Shouzhong quickly flattered her.
Li Nanshuang's face turned from gloomy to clear, and he chuckled: "Forget it, let's forget about being the best in the world, let Li Guanshi have the stone hydrangea. I can barely count myself as the second in the world."
" Well, the boss not only has a beautiful face, but also has high cultivation. He is worthy of being born with a diamond body, and he doesn’t blush at all.”
"That's, I... Huh? Are you deliberately mocking me, braised noodles?"
Li Nanshuang reacted and was about to beat the other person.
Jiang Shouzhong quickly ran away.
"Stewed Noodles, stop here!" Li Nanshuang angrily chased after him.
On the street, the two of them were playing and chasing each other like children.
The sun was just right at this time and it was warm.
Inadvertently, two figures engraved a light but unforgettable warmth deep in the long river of memory.
——
In the evening, the moon is as new as night.
In Qingzhou City, the streets are bustling and the lights are brilliant. Thousands of lights echo with the stars in the sky, and the golden light and silver are intertwined.
As Li Nanshuang said, there is indeed a lantern festival.
During dinner, Ran Qingchen asked Jiang Shouzhong to accompany her to the lantern festival, but Jiang Shouzhong declined.
Ran Qingchen didn't say anything, but there was a little sadness in his eyes.
She thought the other party was going to accompany Xia He to the lantern festival.
After dinner, Ran Qingchen and Jinxiu went to the lantern festival, while Jiang Shouzhong returned to his house.
As soon as I entered the house, I saw a familiar bright red scattered on the ground.
It is a wedding dress made of bright red silk.
In the room, the woman sat lazily in the mist-steamed bathtub, staring at the man with a smile, "Do you miss me?"
"Dream Girl!"< br>
Jiang Shouzhong’s eyes lit up.
He stepped forward quickly, looked at the woman, and said in surprise: "Did you succeed in seclusion?"
"Yes, you succeeded."
The woman seemed to have curls of smoke around her, and she was charming. The energy is naturally revealed, and the corners of the eyes and eyebrows are indescribably romantic and beautiful.
Amidst the sound of rushing water, she stood up from the bathtub, letting her charming body be exposed in the air. She gently caressed the other person's cheek with her jade hand and said softly: "Mo Lang, I won't do it in the future. I will never leave you again.”
“There won’t be any danger in the future, right?”
Jiang Shou's heart beat like a drum.
The corners of Meng Niang's eyes were filled with affection, the corners of her mouth were slightly raised, and she looked at the man, "No, I will let Meng Niang protect you and my little man from now on."
Hongzhu The swaying, mottled light and shadow make the woman's skin look like gelatin.
After this retreat, Mengniang seems to be more beautiful.
Jiang Shouzhong felt relieved and smiled, "That's good, I've been worried about you."
Looking back on the past few days since Meng Niang left, although Xia He was here, this girl couldn't help the fierce love. After all, she was too young when it came to bed. It was difficult for Jiang Shouzhong to realize the overwhelming love he had with Meng Niang.
Now that the other party is back, it is natural to find the comfortable experience of the past.
He reached out and touched the woman's waist...
But the woman put her wet jade fingers against his lips and gently pushed them away.
“Don’t worry, my little man, Mengniang has prepared a surprise for you.”
"What surprise?"
Jiang Shouzhong asked curiously.
“Go to bed and wait, and you will know immediately.” Meng Niang smiled charmingly, and there seemed to be autumn water in her eyes.
"Maybe Mengniang's strength in bed has greatly increased after retreat."
Jiang Shouzhong joked: "I hope I can have the strength to stand up and go out tonight. Don't lie down and get up." Coming.”
"Isn't it better to lie down?"
Meng Niang tapped the man's brow with her slender fingers, and said coquettishly, "Go and lie down, I guarantee you will be very comfortable."
"With your words, I feel relieved."
Jiang Shou sat down in the center and lay on the bed waiting quietly.
The sound of water, the fragrance of flowers, the moon at night, the lights, men and women... This night is destined to be so charming that it is difficult to sleep.
After a long time, the woman who finished bathing walked out of the tub.
The jade-white delicate little feet stepped on the ground.
There seems to be an invisible fragrance all over the woman, lingering gently, just like the peonies blooming in spring, the beauty of the country and the fragrance of heaven.
She put on her wedding dress and came to the bed.
In the confusing and deep room, the darkness is intertwined, just like ink dye.
The only source of light was the faint moonlight, which shyly passed through the window lattice and sprinkled the cold silver light all over the place.
"Mo Lang..."
The woman breathed out blue breath, full of affection.
The air around me seems to be lingering and full of sadness, with a faint fragrance floating around, all of which have become warm, soft and charming due to this scene.
She sits on the man.
Drops of water slowly slid down along the soft blue hair, falling on the man's exposed chest, turning into wisps of coldness and penetrating the skin.
The man trembled, his eyes burning.
"Mo Lang, I've finally waited for you..."
The woman leaned down.
A snake as red as coral appeared quietly from his lips and gently licked the man's neck, leaving a cold feeling.
"Let's... get started."
The woman revealed two extremely sharp teeth and bit hard on the fragile side of the man's neck!
At that moment, blood splashed out, like a coquettish flower suddenly blooming!
The woman strangled the man's neck with one hand, and the tenderness in her eyes had long turned into bloodthirsty coldness.
The teeth biting the side of the man's neck never let go, working harder and harder.
Let the blood splatter.
However, the next moment, the man's body stopped moving, and then became limp in an instant like a deflated balloon.
The woman was stunned and looked down.
The man on the bed disappeared, but turned into a mutilated paper man.
Fooled! !
The woman's face changed suddenly, and fear flashed in her eyes.
Just as he was about to escape, suddenly there were magical talismans flying, arriving in an instant.
When these talismans touch the couch surface, they immediately turn into shining gold chains that wrap around flexibly, binding the woman tightly, making her unable to move.
"Beauty, I have been waiting for you for a long time."
In the dark shadow, a man slowly walked out.
It was Jiang Shouzhong.
The woman was stunned, and then she said coquettishly: "Mo Lang, why did you tie me up?"
"Stop pretending, you really think I am a fool."
Jiang Shouzhong pulled up a chair and sat in front of the bed, crossed his legs and said with a smile, "Although you act very coquettish, you still can't be more coquettish than my Mengniang, you are too young."
Woman Squint He raised his narrow eyes and said, "How did you know I was coming?" "You can guess."
Jiang Shouzhong smiled playfully, "Meng Niang and I didn't find you at the Songjiang Underground Palace Altar, but you watched the whole process. Including me subduing the bull demon with the zodiac sign, and the subsequent fight between me and Meng Niang's dual cultivation is lingering.
Your cultivation is all in that cow demon. Unfortunately, the cow demon was taken away by me, so if you want to get your cultivation back, you can only come to me.
>
You got into Murong Nan's body and used his essence and blood to nourish me.
You were lucky enough to find me at Mingjian Villa, so you killed Murong Nan and started. A plan was made against me.”
"I really underestimated you."
The woman gritted her teeth.
At this time, the flesh on her face began to rot and break away, gradually turning into a pink skeleton, glowing faintly.
Jiang Shouzhong lamented the variety of monsters and continued:
“You don’t dare to come to me directly, because Meng Niang is with me, so you can only monitor me secretly.
Later you found out that Mengniang didn’t show up for a long time. You then have doubts, thinking that Mengniang is not with me.
In order to verify your conjecture, after I killed Qin Shier, you took the opportunity to sprinkle realgar powder on me.
The reason why you didn’t show up to kill me directly is because your current cultivation level is too weak and you are no match for me. Even if I was seriously injured at the time, you didn't dare to take the risk. So, you just pretend to be Meng Niang to get close to me.
After all, Meng Niang and I have been entangled for so long on the altar at that time. It is easiest for you to imitate her.
When I entered the house just now, you were actually betting on whether you could deceive me. If anything goes wrong with me, you will run away.
So in order to lie to you, I took the initiative to pretend to be stupid..."
The pink skull said coldly: "Since you knew I was fake when you entered the house, you are fully capable of killing me when I was taking a bath. Why am I still wasting paper people trying to trick me into sleeping with me and doing all this useless work? ”
Do you think I don’t feel sorry for that paper man?
Jiang Shouzhong thought, if it weren’t for the purpose of restoring the scene of Shuiyue Dream Mirror, I would have dealt with you long ago.
Jiang Shouzhong was too lazy to answer, so he took out the Seven Killing Sword and said:
"The reason why I talk so much nonsense to you is because I am very curious about monsters like you and I don't know if you can be used by me. So now I give you a chance to find a way to become my... uh, pet."
"Do you think it's possible?" The pink skull stared at him bitterly.
"Goodbye then."
Jiang Shouzhong raised his knife without hesitation.
“Wait!”
The pink skull quickly said, "My cultivation is in the bull demon. The bull demon is within your zodiac sign, so you can use the zodiac sign to subdue me."
Jiang Shouzhong looked at her, He twitched his lips and said, "You entered the zodiac sign, and then you took back the cultivation of the bull demon. Can my zodiac sign still trap you? Do you really think that I have no brains?"
"Really...really, I didn't lie to you." The pink skull tried to quibble.
Seeing Jiang Shouzhong slashing with his knife, it shouted urgently: "Paper Man!"
The blade was less than an inch away from the skull's throat bone and stopped.
"Say."
Jiang Shouzhong's eyes were cold.
The pink skeleton said helplessly: "If you still have that kind of paper man, you can attach me to it. You only need to put a drop of your blood on the paper man, and I will...I can only recognize it. You are the master."
Jiang Shouzhong thought for a long time and finally said: "Forget it, I won't take the risk."
The blade passed.
The skull flew straight up.
A black mist spread, and the entire skeleton fell apart and turned into powder. Immediately, another irregularly shaped bone bead appeared.
What is this?
Jiang Shouzhong picked up the beads and looked at them. He thought they might be useful, so he put them away.
After simply cleaning up the room, Jiang Shouzhong lay on the bed tiredly, took a breath, and said secretly: "The second stage of the Water Moon Dream Mirror has finally passed. Fortunately, I didn't listen to the Demon Lord and allowed the dream to happen. , otherwise it will be really cool.”
To be honest, Jiang Shouzhong felt more and more that this white-haired and white tiger cake king was unreliable.
I almost cheated him the first time.
I almost got cheated again for the second time.
Jiang Shouzhong even suspected that the white hair was intentional.
Suddenly, the candlelight in the room flickered slightly. Jiang Shouzhong's nerves tensed up. He sat up suddenly and subconsciously drew the knife.
"Hey, the response is good."
The candlelight in the room became brighter, reflecting the figure of a woman.
The woman is wearing a big golden dress, full of nobility, and the candlelight is mottled to outline layers of golden light and shadow, making her graceful and graceful.
“Thank you, girl?”
Jiang Shouzhong looked stunned.
This woman really came to Qingzhou.
"Boy, come with me to practice dual cultivation." The woman spoke directly without any foreshadowing.
What?
Jiang Shouzhong thought he heard wrongly.
Before he could react, a scent of fragrant wind drifted to his nose, and then there was a slight coolness between his brows, and Jiang Shouzhong lost consciousness.
——
Gufan Temple.
The moonlight is like a wash, and the silver glow is falling.
On the towering sutra platform, three thousand monks sit in meditation, knocking wooden fish and chanting sutras.
The sound of the wooden fish is clearer and longer, rising and falling with the rhythm of the chanting, and there seem to be countless ripples of golden light rippling in the void.
The scripture he was reciting was a taboo scripture in Buddhism - "The Mantra of Great Compassion and Suffering"
During this period, a red aura occasionally appeared, like a karmic fire test.
Under the moonlight, this scene is solemn and strange.
......
When Jiang Shouzhong woke up again, he found that his limbs were tied to an ice-carved jade platform in the shape of "wood".
His whole body's power was blocked and he was unable to struggle.
Looking around, Jiang Shouzhong was stunned.
I saw that I was in a strange stone chamber, with ancient Sanskrit characters engraved on all four walls and intertwined talismans, which were mysterious and difficult to understand.
On top of the ice-carved jade platform, there was actually a boiling and rolling fire.
The red flames surged into the sky, and the heat wave hit the face, just like the raging fire of Abi Hell, which was raging and burning, illuminating the entire space with an eerie red color.
"This is the forbidden area of the ancient Buddhist temple, called the Hell of Torment."
Luo Wanqing appeared in front of Jiang Shouzhong, standing with her hands behind her hands, "The so-called 'Abi Hell Fire Lotus blooms, and a single thought is pure and transcends the world.' Today you and I Let’s practice together here, using the Great Compassion and Suffering Mantra, to use the fire of karma to fall upon you and me, to see if we can enter the realm of heaven and humans.”
“What are you talking about?”
Jiang Shouzhong couldn't understand it at all and felt a chill down his spine.
Luo Wanqing slowly leaned down and looked directly into Jiang Shouzhong's eyes, her bright red lips slightly raised,
"Jiang Mo, do you think my body is so good? Since you and I are bound by the causal thread, I will lend you to practice."
Practice?
Even if you want to practice dual cultivation, you don’t have to do this.
I can take the initiative.
Jiang Shouzhong realized that this woman’s so-called dual cultivation might be different from Meng Niang’s before.
He swallowed and said, "Thank you, girl, please calm down. What's wrong with you? Let me go first and let's discuss it slowly."
"Don't be afraid..."
Luo Wanqing caressed the man's cheek and said softly, "When I feel comfortable, you will feel comfortable too. When you are in pain, I will feel pain too... Where reincarnation does not end, we can be free from suffering and find peace. You and I, have to We must first fall into the hell of bitter fire.”
Jiang Shouzhong thinks this woman is crazy.
This woman has always been crazy, then and even more so now.
As the woman's voice fell, a strong cold air spread from the ice-carved jade platform.
Jiang Shouzhong suddenly felt as cold as bone marrow, as if thousands of years of ice had penetrated his muscles and bones, his blood seemed to be coagulated, and his whole body was as stiff as iron.
In the blink of an eye, another wave of scorching hot air surged forward. The heat wave was so hot that it wanted to melt gold, sparkle iron, and burn skin and flesh.
At this moment, Jiang Shouzhong felt like he was on top of the cooking stove, and the pain was unbearable.
One cold and one hot attack alternately, like a double sky of fire and ice.
At the same time, tiny ice needles appeared on the ice jade platform, piercing into the skin, and in an instant, half of the body was covered with frost.
In the flames above, there are several whips condensed from the flames, slowly hanging down.
Men were punished with ice picks, and women were punished with whips of fire.
Luo Wanqing raised her hand and gently held a fire whip. Her delicate palm was immediately burnt and the flesh was bloody, but the wound healed quickly.
But the pain is really felt.
"In case you are too weak, let me feed you something first."
Luo Wanqing took out a few small porcelain bottles and smiled at Jiang Shouzhong, "I bought these from Yunxiang Pavilion at a big price. , it is said that if you take one pill, you will be like a mad cow plowing the ground day and night."
Luo Wanqing forced Jiang Shouzhong to open his mouth and poured the whole bottle in.
Maybe it was not enough, so I poured three more bottles.
I also drank two bottles.
Jiang Shouzhong could clearly feel the surge of air in his body.
At the same time, Xiao Jiang's strength was surging compared to usual, and it seemed to have more than doubled. Looking at its majestic and majestic appearance, it looks like the god of war has come to the world.
Jiang Shouzhong's eyes were filled with thick dark red, and he gritted his teeth and said:
"I tell you, you will die if you do this. This will really hit your stomach in one step."
< br>"It doesn't matter, I can bear it."
Luo Wanqing smiled brightly and walked out of the stone door.
Outside the door, the old woman who gave Jiang Shouzhong a paper figurine sat quietly in front of an altar with three lamps burning.
The fireworks are different, namely: red, green, and yellow
“Look carefully at these three Bodhi lamps. One of them will go out in three days.”
Luo Wanqing said lightly, "If the red light goes out first, go in and kill Jiang Mo. If the green light goes out first, castrate him."
"What if the yellow light is turned off first?"
The old woman asked.
Luo Wanqing's eyes were deep, like still water in an ancient pool. Her big golden dress was flowing in the wind, and the golden light was shining. She said lightly:
"Then castrate him first, and then kill him. ”
——
——
Qingzhou, Chunfang River.
The lights are shining and the five colors shine together.
On the rippling blue river, exquisite prayer lamps float leisurely, like blooming lotus flowers.
Ran Qingchen took the prayer lamp bought by Jinxiu and neatly wrote the name "Jiang Mo" on it.
The woman clasped her hands together and muttered silently,
"May your husband be safe and sound in this life, with long blessings, no worries about wind and rain, and good health every year..."
Ran Qingchen carefully prayed May the lamp be placed in the gurgling water and let it drift with the tide.
The green skirt is fluttering, and the woman stands quietly on the shore, like the most beautiful painting in the world.
……
In the crowd, a girl with a knife placed a prayer lantern with the word "stewed noodles" written on it in the river.
The girl was bright and charming, and she prayed in a low voice:
"I hope my braised noodles will be happy every day, um... Also, I will compliment his boss on his beauty every day, hehe."
……
Another place, a more secluded shore.
The girl in the red dress looked at the delicate prayer lantern in the water, with tears streaming down her face, and murmured: "Brother Jiang, if there is an afterlife, I hope we can be happy for a lifetime..."
...
Three prayer lamps swayed from different directions and drifted down.
After bumping and stumbling, the three lights finally came together by chance, reflecting each other's brilliance.
The lamp flames are one red, one green, one yellow...
The vermilion is as hot as a pomegranate fire, the green is like an orchid in a deep valley, and the clear yellow is like the rising warm sun.
It is as if the hearts of the three girls will never rest.
