Chapter 387 Yin people borrow the way

Until the banquet ended, the white-haired man never appeared again. His Highness Cheng Yaojin, the Shuangwang, was inconvenient to send him to him, and asked his butler's representative to send the envoy to the Tang Dynasty out of the royal palace. After Abe Zhongma Lu and Qingming's uncle and nephew got on the carriage, the butler went back to report his life.

After hearing that the two Japanese had left in a carriage, Bai Wuqiu said to his 'bird father': "I like this Japanese named Chaoheng. Did you see the fish he made? It's better than the raw fish on Guangzhi's Bait Island. If you weren't afraid of embarrassing the old guy, I asked him to make two more big fish just now."

At this time, Little Ren San followed and got into the fun: "Your nephew is right. Did you hear the story of Chaoheng taking them to Japan? A country as big as a palm has been slapping volcanoes, earthquakes and tsunamis for years. Tell me how much evil I committed in my previous life that I was sent to Japan to be reincarnated?"

"It seems that this envoy sent to Tang really has a connection with a monster..."

After Cheng Yaojin laughed, he turned to Gui Bugui and said, "If you are still worried, I will send someone to invite the two owners of the Sishui family to Japan to check the details of Abe Zhongmaru."

"It's just a little Japanese envoy to send Tang Dynasty, there's no need to do this..." Gui Bugui smiled and waved his hand at Cheng Yaojin, then continued, "Don't worry about your uncle, there are many coincidences in the world."

Although he did not ask the two owners of the Sishui family to investigate, Yao Jin sent people to investigate what Chaoheng did after coming to Chang'an City. The people he sent came back to report that after the Japanese came to the capital, he had gathered with celebrities from all walks of life in Chang'an City, from high-ranking officials to nobles and peddlers Abe Zhongma Lu.

In addition, he spent money generously and soon gained a great reputation. Recently, the high-ranking officials and nobles in the capital met. If this Japanese figure was missing on the table, the situation would be much smaller.

In addition to following these people, Chaoheng was also very interested in the monks in the capital. After coming to Chang'an, he kept asking about the most incense in the big temple, and from time to time he also asked local monks to debate Buddhism. Finally, he simply lived in the famous Great Buddha Temple in the capital. Because of the sudden rise of fame, the presidency was not difficult for him, so he also left a special guest room for Chaoheng.

Except for every day, he followed people to hang out, he stayed in the Big Buddha Temple to listen to the monks chanting scriptures. Apart from this, there was nothing unusual, and the half-boy named Qingming followed Chaoheng like a servant, and he had never heard of him using magic to make trouble.

After several days of investigation, no abnormality was found, Cheng Yaojin withdrew the people who were following him. It seemed that Chaoheng was just a somewhat familiar envoy to send Tang.

More than half a month later, just when the few of them were almost forgot about another Japanese envoy to send Tang envoys to Chang'an City, rumors of haunted suddenly came out of Chang'an City... First, a team of patrolmen saw several vague figures near the Zhuque Gate. Seeing someone coming out to violate the ban in the middle of the night, they wanted to take them back and get a board. Unexpectedly, when the team of the Imperial Guard arrived near, these figures actually fled through the wall. The last one was a dead face with half a face. The frightened Imperial Guard screamed. Two of the twelve teams were scared and fainted on the spot.

Soon afterwards, rumors of haunted wore in every corner of Chang'an City. A couple who had just married for a few days were sleeping in the middle of the night, suddenly saw a group of figures passing through the wall outside the house. These people were wearing cracked shrouds, and their faces looked like living people. Fortunately, these figures were not so difficult for them. After they came in from the east wall, they went out from the west wall. But that was the case, which still scared the bride to death.

The rest of the matter is similar, it’s just that he saw a ghost in the middle of the night. After it was reported to Prince Cheng’s mansion, Cheng Yaojin still used these things to Wu Mian as jokes. Gui Bugui listened: "Now there are more and more people who see haunted, but fortunately, no major incident happened. If someone dies, it will be troublesome."

"It sounds like Yin people borrowing the road, but once this happens near the grave, I have never heard of Xiang's incident that appeared directly in the capital." After hearing this, Gui Bugui smiled at Cheng Yaojin and then continued: "If Yin people borrowing the road, there is no need to do this, and it will be over in a few days..."

Unlike Gui Bugui's expectation, it was not long before the haunted incident in Chang'an City, and this incident finally became a big deal.

One morning, just as Cheng Yaojin and the others were having breakfast, they saw the butler in the royal palace walking in with a chubby eunuch.

The eunuch saw that there was something urgent, and there was no time to ask the butler to come in in advance to report. After seeing Cheng Yaojin, the fat eunuch knelt directly in front of Cheng Yaojin and said in a trembling voice: "Little man Gao Lishi, come and invite King Cheng and several immortals to the palace by the emperor. Please ask some people to leave quickly. If you are late, something big will happen..."

After saying that, regardless of what Cheng Yaojin said, Gao Lishi rushed forward, grabbed King Cheng's sleeve, and pulled him out. Wu Mian, Gui Bugui's appearance had already spread 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 man next to him who was not good-looking. He knew who they were. He immediately pulled Cheng Yaojin to the side of them, and then knelt on the ground and said, "In addition to strange things in the palace, please ask several immortal chiefs to go to the palace. If you go late, I'm afraid..."

"What a big deal is going to happen, I just heard it. Then stop talking nonsense..." Cheng Yaojin smiled and glanced at Wu Mian beside him. Then the two of them walked towards the gate of the royal palace with tacit understanding. Guangzhi and two monsters followed them out together.

When he saw the gate, he didn't see any carriages. There were a few war horses that looked like a thousand miles away. Gao Lishi personally took a war horse and smiled at the few people. The demon said, "It's urgent that it's too late to ride a carriage. His Majesty consigned several horses to ride horses to the palace..."

"Lishi, what happened? It was so serious?" Cheng Yaojin was born as a mountain king and was familiar with riding horses and other things. But he wondered what happened in the palace that the emperor could send eunuchs so early.

"My Grandpa Cheng, you don't have time to explain in detail. You get on the horse first. Let's talk along the way." At this time, Gao Lishi was already sweating profusely, and Cheng Yaojin could only turn over the horse.

When Gao Lishi wanted to invite Wu Mian again, Gui Bugui got on the horse and galloped together, he realized that the demons had disappeared without a trace of the few people who were originally in front of him.

Now all hope is placed on these gods. They disappeared, and Gao Lishi almost cried. At this moment, Cheng Yaojin smiled and said, "Let's go, our old gods have already arrived at the palace. Their god-like figures will naturally not be these mortal horses. Lishi, let's go ours, and we will not delay the serious business."

With Cheng Yaojin's words, Gao Lishi was more or less relieved. At that moment, surrounded by several guards, he rode his horse with Cheng Yaojin in the direction of the palace.

Although Cheng Yaojin had pure riding skills, Gao Lishi's riding skills were really not very good. At this moment, Old Cheng could only control the reins and pulled down the speed by himself, and just took this opportunity to inquire about Gao Lishi about what happened in the palace.

Anyway, if you don’t say it, King Cheng will know it immediately. After Gao Lishi sighed, he said, “The King Cheng doesn’t know anything. A fierce ghost broke into the palace tonight. Guiren Han was scared to death on the spot. A palace maid next to her was also scared. After the evil ghost scared Guiren Han to death, he wandered in the palace again. Even the current emperor saw it in person…”

Gao Lishi said it with his arms. Last night, Li Longji originally planned to favor Concubine Han. Li Longji did not know Concubine Han in advance and planned to suddenly arrive to surprise his concubine Yuan.

Just before he brought the guards and palace servants to the palace where Han Guiren lived, the emperor himself reported to everyone and walked to the front door and was about to push the door in. Suddenly, a scream came from the door. Then the door was knocked open from the inside, and a fierce ghost covered in blood rushed out from the inside.

Li Longji was not prepared, and the mahogany gate directly hit his forehead. The emperor was knocked unconscious on the spot, and the guards who followed him did not dare to stop Gui Li. After being dispersed by the evil ghost, they remembered the emperor who fainted on the ground. Then they hurried over to talk about Li Longji awakening.

After the Emperor woke up, he could still see the figure of a ghost who had already escaped to the distance. He saw it running directly to the palace wall in the distance, and under the eyes of everyone, he passed through the wall and disappeared in front of everyone.

At this time, the miserable screams of palace maids sounded from the palace. Only then did Li Longji remember that his concubine Yuan was still in the palace. Now, with the help of everyone, he went in to check, and saw Han Guiren lying naked on the brocade bed. One of her two close-fitting palace maids sat on the ground with a dull look on the ground, and the other kept yelling, as if the evil ghost just now was still in the palace.

At a loss, the emperor hurriedly ordered the Taoist priests in the palace to come and chase the ghosts. Several Taoist priests were busy until dawn and reported to Li Longji that they had driven out the evil spirits from outside the palace. There were spirit talismans for exorcising ghosts in front of each palace gate to ensure that such evil spirits would not appear in the palace again in the future.

Although these Taoist priests who were usually responsible for praying for the emperor and praising their chests, when they remembered the scene last night, Li Longji's heart was still thumping around. As soon as he closed his eyes, he saw the blood-covered ghost pounce on him last night. At this time, he remembered that Cheng Yaojin still had a few living gods as his disciples. He grew up listening to their myths and stories since he was a child. With them, he was much better than these ordinary Taoist priests.

So Gao Lishi invited someone early in the morning. Cheng Yaojin listened to him and said to him: "My father-in-law is his Majesty's close friend. When the evil ghost appeared last night, he must have been with His Majesty. Tell me about Cheng, what kind of evil ghost can scare His Majesty like this."

Hearing King Cheng ask this, Gao Lishi smiled bitterly and said, "King Cheng, I have always been serving His Majesty, but I was sent by His Majesty to Mei Fei to send Ambergris of Haibao last night. I was not by His Majesty when something happened, but I heard from those young people that the evil ghost appeared and his hair was covered in blood when he appeared. Especially his face was even worse, as if he had just eaten someone."

Cheng Yaojin cooperated with a surprised expression, and then continued, "What awesome evil ghost? My father-in-law didn't invite some palace servants?"

"How dare you not investigate such a big thing? After the accident, I did nothing and kept counting the list..." While speaking, Gao Lishi looked at Cheng Yaojin, feeling that the King of the Two Kings would know about the next thing sooner or later. He simply said everything: "Last night, there were guards, eunuchs, empresses of each palace, palace servants, and servants in total. I invited them three times over and over again, and there were quite a few... It seems that even the evil ghosts eat people, they don't eat them in the palace..."

Next, Cheng Yaojin asked a few more questions about what happened last night. However, Gao Lishi only heard it and did not ask for any useful news. Soon, they rode to the gate of the palace.

With Li Longji's special order, Gao Lishi took Cheng Yaojin straight into the palace. Before entering the palace gate, Gao Lishi specifically asked the imperial guards who had seen a few strange-shaped people entering. He did not get news that Wu Mian would not be able to return to the public or the demon entered the palace. However, he learned that not long ago, the monk Guangxiao, who lived in the Great Buddha Temple, brought the Japanese envoy Abe Zhongmalu and others into the palace. After hearing that he was going to invite King Cheng, the emperor remembered the monk again and immediately sent someone to invite Guangxiao to the palace. Because the Great Buddha Temple was close, Guangxiao and others came first.

When Gao Lishi took Cheng Yaojin to meet Li Longji, the emperor was already full of people. He saw that Monk Guangxiao, who had not seen 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 evil ghosts in the palace. Moreover, all the sects were pasted with ghost-expressing talismans. I think those ghosts would never dare to enter the palace again. And the empress had woken up, so it should be fine."

When Li Longji first entered Chang'an, Cheng Yaojin wanted to show his face. At that moment, Cheng didn't say anything, mixed in the crowd, listening to the conversation between the emperor and Guangxiao. It turned out that this monk Guangxiao had actually woken up the dead nobleman Han after a while. The empress was only frightened and her soul was briefly separated from her body, so she looked like a dead person.

Even if Monk Guangxiao doesn't take action, his soul will return to his body after a long time.

Guangxiao said that each sect had also posted a magic talisman to exorcise ghosts. When the effect was good, the Taoist priests next to him seemed a little proud. I think they were just a few people who had been busy exorcising ghosts all night last night. Yao Jin watched in the crowd for a long time, but he didn't see Wu Mian, Gui Bugui and the others. I think they were inconvenient to show up after seeing Guangxiao appear.

Li Longji is still in shock now. After hearing the monk's words, he nodded repeatedly and then said: "What the master said is that the rumors of haunted ghosts in the capital have been said in recent times. I am also uneasy. Please send the Buddha to the West. I also ask the master to take action on exorcising ghosts in the capital. For the sake of the people, I must not refuse."

"Monk must do his best, please don't worry your majesty." After Guangxiao smiled slightly, he was about to say something else when he suddenly heard the Japanese envoy standing behind him say: "Your Majesty, the foreign minister thinks that what happened last night may have nothing to do with the ghost path. What Your Majesty saw may not be a ghost..."

"Japanese, is there any part of your conversation here?" Hearing the Japanese man say that he was not haunted last night, why did he be busy until dawn? At that moment, the Taoist priest who led the lead took a step forward and stared at the Japanese envoy named Chaoheng and continued, "What I saw with my own eyes, the empress was almost scared to death. Is there any fake one?"

Chaoheng smiled at the Taoist priest, and then said to the emperor sitting on it: "Your Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, if you have any personal matters, you should tell Your Majesty about it. It is related to the honor and disgrace of the foreign minister. Please report to those who have nothing to do with them and leave a face to the foreign minister."

Li Longji is also a talented monarch. He was frightened by the ghost last night, so he asked people to stay by his side, hoping to use these people to gain yang energy and force the ghosts to not get close. Now when he heard this Japanese man say this, he looked like he had something in his words.

At this moment, people ordered people to retreat the irrelevant ministers, leaving only Monk Guangxiao, a few Taoist priests and their personal bodyguards to continue to stay here, and listen to what the Japanese said.

"Is it King Cheng? You stay, you are the founding father, I have not concealed your words here." In the crowd, I saw Cheng Yaojin and Gao Lishi mingled inside. Li Longji hurriedly called Lao Cheng and gave him a seat. Now, besides him, the people sitting in the palace are His Highness, the two kings. Even the monk Guangxiao did not get a seat.

After seeing that all the people who should leave the palace had left, Chaoheng continued, "Your Majesty, please forgive the words of the outside ministers. What Your Majesty saw last night was not a ghost, but a living person."

"Nonsense! Last night, our brothers went to exorcise ghosts, and there was a ghost energy. What else could it be if it wasn't a ghost?" When the Japanese heard the Japanese denied straight to the point and directly denied that they were ghosts last night, the Taoist priest who took the lead suddenly turned his face.

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

After hearing the emperor's words, the Taoist priest named Li Hezhong then shut up. Guangxiao, who was on the side, smiled without saying a word, was also waiting for the words behind Abe Zhongmaru.

"Since the evil spirit can pass through the wall? Why do you still push the door out and scare His Majesty?
