Chapter 154 Lotus Lady
Huzhou is north of Hangzhou and not far from Hangzhou. Because it is close to Taihu Lake, it is named Huzhou. To the east of Huzhou, there are Wuxi, Suzhou and other places. It is located in the southern part of the Yangtze River and is naturally beautiful.
Su Yang and Chunyan had already arrived in Huzhou. At this time of great scenery, the two of them rowed and played on the Taihu Lake and played in Huzhou for a while. It was not until evening that Su Yang and Chunyan had just headed towards the temple where Gu Zhi was.
Gu Zhi went to Hangzhou City to ask Liu Xianggui for help, and wanted to get a letter to keep his temple in Huzhou. He told him where he was. At that time, Su Yang found him along the direction, but it would not be bad at all.
At that time, the smoke rose everywhere and the vastness was everywhere.
When the people in Huzhou saw that it was getting late, they walked home one after another.
"This brother."
Su Yang waved his hand to stop a person who was about to go home and asked with a smile: "I dare to ask about this Zongjiazhuang, but I'll just walk forward."
The scholar was stopped by Su Yang. After seeing Su Yang, he looked at Chunyan again, and then said to Su Yang: "Brother, the Zongjiazhuang you mentioned should be in Nantang fifty miles away. If you want to leave today, you will definitely not be able to reach the place. You might as well stay nearby and stay here for a night until dawn, then hire a carriage and go there."
When Su Yang heard the scholar's words, he nodded and smiled: "It's good to know the place. It's also my husband and I are playing around in the city. If the wrong time is right, I have to walk a night."
The fifty miles away is no problem for Su Yang and Chunyan.
When the scholar heard Su Yang's words, he approached Su Yang and whispered: "Brother, I'm afraid there are ghosts on this night road..."
There are ghosts on the night road...
In this night in the sun, it was the day in the underworld. It was when the wild ghosts on the grave began to move. Many people were carrying lanterns while walking at night, and were deceived by ghosts as they walked. Some people disappeared directly, while some people were seriously injured and they were seriously ill when they returned home.
Su Yang shook his head and said, "I am open-minded and not afraid of ghosts."
The scholar listened to Su Yang's words and advised: "In addition to ghosts, there are bandits in the mountain, and they all act at night. Your wife is as beautiful as a flower. It is hard to guarantee that those thieves will not have any unfair intentions."
Most of the bandits are the people. The prosperity of this feudal dynasty is like Lanruo Temple in the movie "A Chinese Ghost Story". All the prosperity is piled up on the corpses of the people. Even though the Jiangnan side is prosperous, there are still many people who are forced to go to the fore.
In this era, we have to rely on farming to make a living. Landlords take the land and tenants work. Even if there is no idle land in the world, the civil servants have been starving to death for a long time. What's more, a little natural disaster will cause a huge decline in harvests in a region, and a little patient will force a family to be destroyed.
Su Yang shook his head and said, "I'm not afraid of thieves."
When the scholar heard that Su Yang was not afraid one after another, he had nothing to say. He shook his head and bowed to Su Yang and left.
"May I have your name?"
Su Yang asked as the scholar was about to leave.
"Mid-Autumn Festival in Wei."
The scholar said goodbye to Su Yang and said his name, so the two of them parted ways.
Su Yang led Chunyan and the two walked towards Zongjiazhuang. The two of them were walking lightly, but at this time they were full of steps.
"My husband is very bold now, not afraid of thieves or ghosts."
Chunyan bent her lips and looked at Su Yang with a half-smile, "It's very different from the cunning look in her heart when she saw me."
When Su Yang and Chunyan first met, Su Yang was afraid of thieves and ghosts. Now his strength is increasing day by day. Su Yang can respond openly to these ghosts and thieves.
Looking back on that day, when Su Yang held Chunyan's hand, he sighed and said, "When I escaped in Guangping, I pulled the carriage and took my adopted son. The two of them walked in the mountains. At that time, I met a ghost halfway through the road, which scared me and my adopted son to run to Baochan Temple overnight... If the green-clothed ghost at that time had malicious intentions towards me, if I had no luck to protect my body, I would have explained it at that time."
In a deserted mountain temple, I met another ghost. Su Yang was really desperate at that time.
It was after meeting Chunyan and getting jade liquid that everything began to change.
Chunyan smiled and leaned against Su Yang, and said, "It is because of you that I have become the third lady of the Wheel King's Mansion!"
The two looked at each other and smiled, held hands, and walked towards the mountain road ahead.
Everything was silent. On this night road, Su Yang also activated the five consciousnesses and looked at everything around him. However, he and Chunyan walked all the way to Zongjiazhuang, and did not encounter ghosts and monsters on the way, nor did they encounter bandits. Until the two saw Zongjiazhuang, Su Yang's eyes lit up and he smiled and said, "There is a monster here."
Chunyan combined her eyes and felt it, then smiled at Su Yang and said, "It's still a vixen!"
Su Yang and Chunyan walked forward, and there was a huge lotus pond in front of the village. Following the path beside the lotus pond, you walked into Zongjiazhuang, which was also the village where Guzhi was located.
However, Su Yang did not disturb Gu Zhi directly, but walked into the Zongjiazhuang and went directly to the family where the vixen was making trouble.
The vixen family has three houses, all of which are local civil structures, and the windows are covered with paper. Su Yang and Chunyan arrived outside the window and looked through the window. They saw a scholar lying in this room. The scholar Shenxu was weak and sank on the bed. Not far from the scholar's window, a woman came in. She looked very beautiful. Seeing the scholar Shenxu was weak and looked like he took an orange from his sleeve and leaned towards the scholar.
"Swoosh..."
A whirlwind blew out of thin air in the room. When the beautiful woman was attracted by the whirlwind, she fell into the jar in front of the window. A few people were standing outside the door. Seeing this, she rushed into the house, held the basin in her hand on the jar, took out a spell from her sleeve, and stuck it on the basin.
The fox demon was trapped, and the oranges the fox demon carries with him were scattered all over the ground.
"It's this fox who is causing trouble!"
Seeing this, the scholar's family said hatefully: "Xiang'er, you are lying here. I will boil water and steam the jar on boiling water. In just one moment, it will turn into ashes!"
The family naturally had indescribable resentment towards this fox demon who harmed his son.
It is recorded in the Swordsman that it is used to prepare a fox demon in the jar and boil it in water.
In "The Fox Enters the Bottle", a story in "Strange Stories from a Fox" tells a story that a woman was fascinated by a fox and could not be driven away, but there was a bottle behind the door. Every time the woman's father-in-law came here, the fox would enter the bottle. The woman knew it. When a father-in-law came here and the fox escaped, the woman would stuff the bottle with cotton wool, put the bottle in the soup and boil it, and finally refine the fox to death. When the bottle was pulled out, there were only a few blood points inside and a pile of hair.
The methods used by scholars’ family now are obviously also such methods.
Su Yang looked at the talismans on the jar and basin outside, and smiled at Chunyan, "I said why didn't Gu Zhi come out to subdue demons and demons? It turned out that he was writing the talisman to test it."
In Hangzhou West Lake, Gu Zhi used the six methods of Naluo to exchange Taoist scriptures with Su Yang. Therefore, Su Yang learned the skills of the Western Land Buddhism, and Gu Zhi also learned Taoist talismans. Now Gu Zhi is using Taoist talismans to subdue monsters.
"My husband, husband..."
In this jar, the female fox demon kept shouting and said, "Mr., save me, don't let the water cook me..."
"My husband, I never thought of harming you..."
"My husband...My husband..."
The woman was crying in the jar with sorrow. At this time, the scholar's family went outside to boil water and add fire. Only the scholar lay alone on the bed, looking at the oranges all over the ground, the scholar suddenly stood up, tore off the talismans on the jar, and then opened the basin.
A smoke rose in the room. In the smoke, the woman who had just appeared, was weak all over her body, and knelt directly on the ground, looking at the scholar who had unveiled the talisman, and said sadly: "My years of practice are about to be successful, and now it is almost completely turned into dust. My husband, you are a kind and righteous person, and I will definitely repay you in the future."
After the fox demon said that, he turned into a whirlwind and walked through the room through the room, passing by Su Yang and Chunyan, leaving a gust of fragrant wind.
The scholar was in this room, and when he touched the sweat on his head, he collapsed on the bed.
"Xiangruo, Xiangruo..."
The scholar's family walked in, looked at the scholar who had fainted on the bed, and looked at the opened basin and said angrily: "The talisman given by the mage is useless at all. I pity my son, I was harmed by this monster again!"
When people who came in and saw the scene naturally had such a misunderstanding.
"It was your son who took the initiative to open the basin and let the fox demon go."
Su Yang walked into the door. As an eyewitness, he naturally had to explain it at this time.
The scholar's family saw Su Yang, and then tried to judge him, "Who are you?"
There is no such person in their Zongjiazhuang!
The circulation is not developed now, and they clearly know how many people there are in each family and what each household looks like.
"Those passing by, come to find Master Guzhi."
When Su Yang faced the scholar's family's cold-heartedness, he still smiled, reached out to hold the scholar's arm, pulled out his pulse, looked at the scholar's family and said, "You call him Xiangruo, is he Zong Xiangruo?"
Seeing Su Yang as familiar, the scholar's father felt that Su Yang's origin was unknown, and said coldly: "He grew up in Zongjiazhuang, so he naturally had the surname Zong, and he could not be the next one."
Zong Xiangruo.
Su Yang looked at the scholar on the bed and looked at the jars and basins on the ground. He thought that this was Huzhou, Zhejiang, Zong Xiangruo, and basins. Su Yang already knew that he had entered the story of Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio again.
