I hate the palace.
Situ Jing followed the instructions carefully and stayed beside Wang Yulang all the time, holding the tortoise shell in his hand and telling a few divinations from time to time.
The more he thought about it, the more sweat he shed.
The hexagram was very ominous. Situ Jing wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and muttered, "The uninvited guest that this ghost lady mentioned might be a ghost guest."
According to this hexagram, he had a nine-tenth chance of dying that night. Doctor Situ wanted to cry. He had given up his studies to become a doctor just for safety's sake, but how come he still couldn't escape death?
Situ Jing looked around the room, the more he looked, the more he felt that every corner was good and creepy. With the idea of dying as a ghost, he hardened his heart and took out a small bottle.
This bottle contains cow's tears, which can be applied on the eyelids to make the eyes appear dark.
Situ Jing poured out a little and rubbed it on his eyelids. A cool air entered his eyes, and the moment he opened his eyes, his heart almost stopped.
A pair of lifeless dark eyes stared at him intently. The other person seemed to be standing upside down like a bat. It was unknown how long he had been looking at him in this posture.
Situ Jingzhan's hair was about to stand up. He used the last of his rationality to stop himself from screaming, and instead he tremblingly took out a talisman from his arms.
Bang!
He slapped the other person on the forehead, then turned and ran away.
“Ahhhh! The ghost is coming!! The ghost is coming—”
As soon as Qing Wu and her group came out of Yin Yang Road, they heard Situ Jing's heart-wrenching scream.
Situ Jing ran out of the yard and saw Qing Wu. He opened his arms and rushed towards her as if he had seen his own mother: "Princess - um -"
A black chain emerged from behind and was about to tie Situ Jing's neck.
Qing Wu pointed her toes, leaped forward, kicked Situ Jing away, and grabbed the chain with her bare hands.
Xiao Chenyan's speed was no less than hers. He drew his sword and slashed with fire. He was about to cut off the soul-binding lock just like he did on the Yin-Yang Road. Suddenly, Qing Wu shouted, "Xiao Chenyan, stop!"
The sword tip hovered over the soul-binding lock.
Xiao Chenyan asked with a questioning look.
Qing Wu was speechless at this moment, and glared at Situ Jing beside her: "What on earth did you do?"
Situ Jing was kicked so hard that he just got up, and he didn't even spit out the dirt in his mouth. He looked aggrieved and innocent:
"I didn't do anything. I was almost scared to death just now. A ghost hit me in the face, so I stuck the talisman you gave me on his forehead."
Qing Wu: “…”
Judge’s Pen: “…”
Are you polite?
The talisman was written by Qing Wu, and it had her underworld aura. Qing Wu expected that a ghost would come to Wang Yulang that night to take his soul away, so she gave Situ Jing the talisman and asked him to persuade the ghost to leave.
I didn't let him touch the ghost's forehead. If an ordinary ghost was hit by her Yinguan Book, wouldn't his soul be scattered?
but……
Since the other party's soul didn't fly away, it means... that he is not an ordinary ghost.
Judge's Pen: "Awu, I have a bad feeling. This soul-enticing lock looks familiar..."
Qing Wu: "Don't have a premonition. Your premonitions are usually not good for good but good for bad."
As expected, a cold and strange voice came along the soul-catching lock and fell into Qing Wu's ears: "Ghost Aunt, if you don't take away your Yinguan Book, I will really make trouble."
When Qing Wu heard this voice, she felt a pang of annoyance.
Situ Jing was a little nervous: "Princess, what should we do now?"
"I'll go in and take a look." Qing Wu had just finished speaking when someone grabbed her arm. She turned her head and saw Xiao Chenyan with a frown on his face.
The man pursed his lips tightly, obviously disapproving of her decision to go in alone.
"It's okay, it's a familiar...ghost." Qing Wu said.
Xiao Chenyan then let go, but added: "If you need anything, call me."
Qing Wu nodded, with a smile in her eyes. She walked quickly into the room and saw an 'unlucky guy' hanging upside down with her talisman stuck on his forehead.
Qing Wu went over and lifted the lid, and the other person floated down.
However, he was wearing a mourning cap, with a feminine figure, a streak of red between his eyebrows, a handsome appearance, but with a pair of squinting eyes that made him look lifeless.
He was wearing a black robe that seemed to be condensed from ghostly energy, with a collar made of quilted collar and the words "Night Tour" clearly printed on it.
The other party's identity is obvious.
The underworld, the night wandering god.
The Emperor of the Underworld is the Lord of Mount Tai, under him are the Ten Kings of Hell, and under the Kings of Hell are the Day-Wandering God and the Night-Wandering God.
Awu, the God of Hell, is a special existence in the underworld, and the status of the Night Wandering God is equally special.
It's so unlucky. No matter whether it's a human or a ghost, I'm annoyed by this guy.
"I know you are free, but I wonder how free you are? You even want to get involved in the ghost catcher's soul-snatching business?" Qing Wu really didn't expect that this guy would be the one who came that night.
Ye Youqiu stared at her and said, "If I wasn't so idle, how would I have discovered that there were ghosts tampering with the Book of the Dead, trying to help people return to life?"
Qing Wu looked at him with a half-smile, shaking the Yinguan Book in her hand: "So? Are you going to report me?"
She took a step forward, and Yeyou took a step back, with resentment in his dead fish eyes: "You damned devil, you sneaked into the human world to play without me, and even asked someone to stick a talisman on me!"
"My heart is so cold~"
Qing Wu gritted her teeth when she heard this and glared at him: "Stop talking nonsense, watch your mouth and stay out of my business."
Night Walker snorted, "If you want me to not care, that's another price."
Qing Wu narrowed her eyes and stared at him, then suddenly smiled. Ye Youshen's face suddenly changed color, and he turned around and wanted to run away, but the soul-catching lock in his hand bound his feet uncontrollably.
Boom! He fell flat on his face.
Qing Wu stepped on his buttocks and rolled them. Ye You immediately showed an expression of both pain and comfort, with a smile in his narrowed eyes:
"It hurts, it hurts~ Ouch, beating is love and scolding is care, you little bastard, you love me so much that you can't wait to attack me as soon as you see me~"
"Are you feeling comfortable? How about I give you some more warmth?" A Netherworld Lamp appeared in Qing Wu's hand.
Ye You's face changed color, and he immediately said solemnly: "Awu, what are you doing? If you have anything to say, why don't you just talk it out and put down your Netherworld Lamp, we can still be good friends."
"Then I have to ask you, my good friend," Qing Wu's eyes were filled with murderous intent, and the Night Wandering Ghost's bones were trembling under the pressure of the Yin Official:
"The duty of the night wandering gods is to inspect the good and evil in the world. Some people in the mortal world have colluded with the ghosts in the underworld, killing children, plundering souls, and raising mountain spirits and wild monsters."
"You, the night wandering god, are oblivious to anything. Have you eaten too much and forgotten your duties, or are you in cahoots with those underworld parasites? Are you involved in this?"
The heartless smile on Ye You's face disappeared, and his narrowed eyes widened a little, emitting a dangerous light: "Are you serious?"
Qing Wu looked down at him, the smile on her face disappeared, but the strength under her feet was gradually increasing.
"Pretending? If it has nothing to do with you, how come it's such a coincidence that you came just after I saved the child's soul?"
Ye You was no longer in the mood to joke: "I swear on my life, if I really participated, I would be thrown into the hell of endless suffering and never be able to escape!"
He swore a ghostly oath, and his body was filled with ghostly energy.
Qing Wu kicked him again, and Ye You rolled over. Just as he was about to get up, the woman shouted coldly:
"Did I ask you to get up? Get on your knees!"
Plop, I knelt down and got the pen.
Qing Wu stared at him gloomily: "The world of the living and the underworld should be clearly separated, but now the yin and yang are in chaos. You, the Night Wanderer, are idle. If you can't figure out this matter, then you can stop being the Night Wanderer."
"You'd better go to the cesspool hell and carry manure as soon as possible, and save some salary for the underworld!"
Ye You's face turned even paler after being scolded, his mouth pursed, and the mourning crown on his head drooped down.
"Oh my god~ Ah Wu is so fierce~"
Qing Wu stared at him with a half-smile, which made Ye You shudder. He dared not to be a jerk anymore and said honestly, "I'll check it out right now!"
"I will kill him if he dares to kidnap a soul right under my nose!!"
After Ye You swore and swore for a while, his eyes narrowed again: "Awu, you came to the human world just to investigate this matter? I just heard someone call you princess..."
Qing Wu smiled and held her cheek: "Are you sure you want to mind my business?"
Ye You fell silent and said, "No, no, I won't come to see you during the day." After that, he ran away.
After he left, Judge Bi said, "This unlucky guy is here. I'm afraid there will be no peace from now on."
"It is indeed bad luck." Qing Wu's lips curled up: "But this bad luck can be transferred."
No matter whether you are a human or a ghost, you will be unlucky if you meet the Night Wandering God, right?
As for the 100 ways to use the Night Wanderer and how to "transfer bad luck", no one in heaven or earth is more proficient than Qing Wu~
