Chapter 80: Guilt

In the late spring and March, the smoke cage Changan, a layer of gauze-like mist filled the city.
In the afternoon, there was a drizzle of rain, and the city's willow color was like washing, and it was full of vibrant green, the flowers were stained with rain, and the petals were scattered everywhere. Dingding under the eaves dumbled down, and the steam rolled into the Xingqing Palace.
Yang Guifei was leaning on the soft couch, and Yang Guozhong was half wet with rain. She sat aside and wiped a glass with gold inlaid with Sipa herself. There was a golden dragon carved into it, and the five-claws were entrenched. The two sealed glass cups were filled with gray sand. When they looked closely, they found that they were made of black and white sand.
"... Deng Tong was once rich, and who wanted to get him to starve to the streets in the end? Shang Yang was famous for his life, but he couldn't escape the end of five horses ..."
"Don't say it." Yang Guozhong put down Sipa and looked at Yang Yuhuan, frowning, "Is it interesting?"
"I'm in a hurry," Yang Yuhuan said abruptly, "Brother, you don't know how to talk about us outside. They all said that the Yang family is a monster!"
Yang Guozhong's eyes were filled with anger, but Yang Yuhuan was very upset: "How could this be? How ..."
"What Li Jinglong said is just some nonsense and confusing black and white!" Yang Guozhong said angrily, "If you can't let this go, it's our biggest trouble!"
"How do you let me put it down?" Yang Yuhuan said sadly. "After that night, I often dreamed of the elder sister. She had blood on her face. She urged me all the time and made me avenge her. I thought it was all over, If you can forget it, your majesty also said that there will be a heavenly devil in the Tang Dynasty ... "
"Heavenly Demon." Yang Guozhong wiped the golden dragon more intently, and laughed ironically.
Yang Guifei sighed quietly, Yang Guozhong shook his tongue, and Yang Yuhuan whispered again: "Brother, Jinlou Yuxia, there will be a day when it will finally fall. The tree must be precautionary and must be prepared early."
"Speaking of ghosts and gods." Yang Guozhong said, "It's just a fool of foolish people, used to deceive people. If I expected it well, then Li Jinglong created such a big momentum, but he was pressed for a long time and wanted to float up. Take a breath. "
Yang Yuhuan suddenly looked at Yang Guozhong and frowned, "What's the breath?"
Yang Guozhong said casually: "How many years have Datang never had a national teacher? Li Heng wants to succeed, and he should also have his own calculations. What heavenly devil, what ominous, what scourge, how big can it be except against us intention?"
Yang Yuhuan lost his brilliance, Yang Guozhong brushed the gilt hourglass, opened a ebony box with precious weight, placed it, and said: "Your son should also come, find Li Jinglong himself when he finds a suitable time. Get rid of it. "
Yang Yuhuan got upset, Yang Guozhong thought for a moment, looking out at the rain outside the palace.
"I heard Ge Shuhan's report, and when they were in Huanzhou a few months ago, they caught a monster. They walked hurriedly that day, and the monster was not taken away. Afterwards, he was interrogated by Ge Shuhan and learned about it. Beside Li Jinglong, there is a demon lurking. Guess who? "
"Just the young man who called Kong Hongjun."
"What ?!" Yang Yuhuan wondered, "It's impossible! Dr. Kong, the doctor who gave me the doctor, was his father!"
Yang Guozhong, with a wooden box in his arms, slowly said: "It's okay to believe it or not to believe it. It's a demon. There is a day when it appears in its original form. Li Jinglong is skeptical and doesn't want to think about it.
Yang Yuhuan gasped slowly.
"But it was only after he became the exorcist secretary history that these strange things happened one after another. Now it is even more amazing. Hey," Tian Mo "is just a conspiracy of Li Heng and him, and it's just a coup. The child's ghost Qitan can't hide from being old and faint ... "
Yang Yuhuan was shocked and exasperated, "Shut up!"
Yang Guozhong said with a sneer: "You can't hide him, but you can't hide me. You think, if you poke out one day, the exorcism division is the source of these demons, how will the group be dealt with? You really think that your big sister is monster?"
Yang Yuhuan said restlessly: "This ..."
Yang Guozhong stepped forward a little, lowering his voice, and said, "I don't think so ... The Exorcism Division are all illusions and swindlers. Who can think of these imperceptible methods in the heart of His Majesty?"
Yang Yuhuan couldn't help but get cold from behind.
"Your Majesty's there, I'll leave it to you. The Exorcist Division can't stay any longer, otherwise this matter will get bigger and bigger, and there will be no game."
Yang Yuhuan stared at Yang Guozhong, and Yang Guozhong had few words. He clicked until he looked at Yang Yuhuan for a moment and nodded and left. The rest of Yang Yuhuan stared at the spring rain outside, dazed.
In the Exorcism Division, Mo Rigen and Asna Qiong each went to handle the case, and Artai asked Zhao Hongjun and Lu Xu: "Go to the West City to drink?"
Hong Jun and Lu Xu waved their hands together, and Artest went to see Trandow, while Li Jinglong had not returned for most of the day. They drank tea and watched the rain outside the eaves.
"Where did you go to the end?" Hong Jun said to himself.
Lu Xu replied: "There were monsters at the Huaqing Palace in Lishan last night, and they were investigated early in the morning."
At first, Hong Jun felt a little upset, fearing that everyone would ask him: How do you like Chang Shi, what happened last night, and you will be together in the future ... The expression, except for a few jokes at first, was actually a pair that took Hongjun and Li Jinglong for granted.
"Morigen ..."
"I don't mention Li Jinglong." Lu Xu said blankly, "Don't mention him."
Hong Jun: "..."
Hong Jun had nodded, and the two reached an unspoken agreement. Lu Xuxun thought for a moment. When he was about to ask some other time, someone outside shouted, "Li Changshi! Is Li Changshi here?"
Hongjun went to put the people in, but he was a prince's staff, who personally sent the imperial edict, Hongjun said: "Long history went out to investigate the case."
"Then you go first." The staff said, "This is the purpose of His Majesty and the East Palace, and Li Changshi is named Yadanhou."
Yadan had always been barren, and there was a piece of yellow sand. The cemetery was full of dead corpses. Fenghou was sealed to Yadan. Only the staff said: "There is also a statutory order and Hou Yin, all prepared together. Feng Houling has been sent all the way along Hexi Road, Yadan is uninhabited, just inform Yumen to turn off Jia Zhou . "
Lu Xu: "What do you mean?"
Hong Jun: "I don't understand."
In the exorcism division, there were two janitors who did not eat the fireworks in the world. The two looked at each other and did not thank them. The staff reluctantly said: "Do you have no adults here?"
"I am an adult." Hong Jun said angrily, "I am seventeen! Why not an adult!"
"I'm eighteen." Lu Xu replied, "He is my brother."
Staff: "..."
Changwen Exorcism Division is full of strange people. At first sight, it did n’t happen, and the staff had no time to investigate why the 17th can be the 18th brother. He just wanted to hurry up and pulled out a letter, saying, "This is You have received the letter from Hexi, and then take the seal ... "
Hong Jun didn't have a seal, and finally drew a bet, and the staff went back to life with an umbrella. Lu Xujian wrote the name of Hong Jun and said, "Is it yours?"
Hong Jun opened the letter and said, "My uncle!" I saw what was said in the letter, and it was all another matter. That day, he left in a hurry and had no explanation, but when he saw the letter from Jia Zhou, it seemed that there had been a round before. Correspondence. Presumably, Li Jinglong wrote a letter in his own name and convicted him in the past. Jia Zhouxin's intention was to say goodbye this time, and I don't know when to meet. I must pick a non-cold time when I am free in the future, and often come to Yumenguan.
Hong Jun said to Lu Xu: "Uncle is my only relative."
Lu Xu nodded and said, "Mortals are different from us."
Hong Jun was suddenly reminded by Lu Xu, thinking of a question, he was a half demon, that is to say ... he seems to be able to live a long time? But Li Jinglong, Lu Xu and others are mortals, what should they do?
Unknown to what Lu Xu thought, he picked out the inside one and said, "Who is this?"
"This is ... Ghost King!" Hong Jun looked at the silk script, and there were all correct seal scripts inside. He knew few words. When he was about to turn the book to the right, someone outside shouted: "Li Changshi! Long history! "
Hong Jun thought that the Dong Gong staff went back, but when he opened the door, he discovered that it was Huang Yong from Dali Temple and a document.
"Long history?" Huang Yong said anxiously.
Hong Jun had to explain it again. Lu Xu looked behind him. Hong Jun knew that this guy was Li Jinglong ’s boss, so he asked him to come in for tea, but Huang Yong was anxious and said, "Mo Rigen is not here? When will they come back?" ? "
"I don't know." Hong Jun and Lu Xu looked at Huang Yong blankly.
"Kong Hongjun, are there no adults here?" Huang Yong looked around and asked.
"No."
Lu Xu and Hong Jun spoke in unison.
"We are all silly kids." Lu Xu added another sentence.
"Yes." Hong Jun explained to Huang Yong, "We were born and our brains were caught by the door, which is not easy to use. We can't investigate the case, and we can't accept the demon. We can only stretch our hands here and open our mouth to eat. Eat it and wait to die. "
"Don't tell us anything," Lu Xu said.
Hong Jun: "We are not curious at all, you will wait here for long history to come back."
Huang Yong understood the meaning of sarcasm in the words and quickly said: "It's not the meaning, the two come with me ... yo, what is this? Yadan Hou? This can be called Hou Ye ... wrong, how to seal Go to Yadan? "
Huang Yong asked the document to wait outside. When he went to the hall, he saw Li Jinglong's Feng Houling, but he didn't respond. Hongjun just stood side by side with Lu Xu, tilting his head to look at him.
"Two." Huang Yong ran sweaty, "I said that, something is wrong, please bear with me."
Hong Jun often runs Dali Temple with Li Jinglong. Huang Yong knows it, but he treats him as Li Jinglong's follower most of the time. At this moment, Huang Yong straightened his breath and said, "It's true not to hide, there was a big event in the Emperor's Mausoleum last night ..."
Tianbao, March 17, thirteen years.
Case: Zhaoling Haunted
Difficulty: herringbone level
Region: Jiuzhang Mountain Taizong Zhaoling
Involved in the case: unknown
The case: On the night of March 13th, a ghost was found outside Taizhao Zhaoling, Jiujia Mountain, and Guojiacun was on the spot at night. The lunatic escaped during the day and ran into the depths of Zhaoling. Cheng Xiao of Dali Temple and his government entered Zhaoling to investigate.
Remuneration: No.
Remarks: Do n’t disturb your majesty, disturb anyone, etc., or you will lose your life!
Hong Jun: "This is haunted? Why didn't you say it earlier?"
Huang Yong smiled bitterly: "I have handed over a case beforehand, and it was held in the exorcism department. It was too late to deal with it. It was a matter of great importance ... The Emperor Taizong's mausoleum was involved.
Lu Xu and Hong Jun looked at each other.
Hong Jun resolutely said: "Let's wait for long history to come back."
Hongjun, the ancestral tomb of the emperor ’s family, did not dare to go indiscriminately,
"Don't!" Huang Yong changed his lane, "Kong Hongjun, anyway, you exorcism division really have to run today! This case can't be suppressed anymore! Wait any longer, Lingwei will be at Dali Temple. Lingwei did not dare to perform duties, and Lian Hao made friends with the Yang family again. If he was known by His Majesty, Long Yan was furious, but just, what ... You did n’t just accept any dead corpse? "
Hong Jun and Lu Xu stared at each other, and Huang Yong said again: "Very serious, very very serious!" He moved closer and whispered: "This matter is related to Zongmiaoshe Ji. It is suspected that someone is making a mystery ... "
Hong Jun: "???
Lu Xu: "?"
Huang Yong said anxiously: "In case there is rumor that it is Taizong's heroic spirit, he persuades Your Majesty ... Alas, you two don't understand!"
Suddenly, Hong Jun understood the problem, but he understood it, and explained to Lu Xu: "Master Huang said that it was the emperor's ancestor who showed his spirit and scolded him for his wasteful political affairs ..."
"I didn't say that!" Huang Yong said immediately. "I mean, I am afraid that someone has ulterior motives and produces rumors! Ouch, two lords ... when did your family come back?"
Huang Yong was already crying, and Hong Jun said: "Don't worry, we will go."
Lu Xu responded naturally, the rain outside had stopped, and no one in the exorcism division came back. Huang Yong and Qian Dingwan asked him to go back. Hongjun left a note to pull the carp monster trapped in Zhengchun out, back on his back, and went out with Lu Xu.
Seeing that it was midday, Lu Xuzheng was about to wander out of the city, but Hongjun suggested to find Artest first. When you arrive at the restaurant opened by Tran Duo in the city, the restaurant is just across from Hong Jun's favorite
Dragon Gate
. There is a huge restaurant, decorated with magnificent gold and many silk tents.
At noon, there were no guests in the restaurant, and Artest took a fly swatter in the restaurant.
"How much does it cost?" Lu Xu looked up at the two-storey restaurant and said, "Can I get back the money?"
Hong Jun also roughly knew the concept of a little money. Trondo saw the two coming and said: "Today the boss is happy and drinks for free!"
Artest raised the fly swatter and waved hello to the two. Hongjun hurriedly resigned and told Artest that he and Lu Xu went to investigate the case.
"Go together?" Artest came out busy.
Hong Jun glanced at Tlando, afraid of Tlando being angry, and busy: "You stay here with your sister-in-law."
Trento came out and said, "Let him be with you."
Lu Xu said: "Let's go back quickly, and we will get around in an hour, but it will take you slowly."
Artest had no choice but to pay attention to them. After leaving the city, Lu Xu transformed into a white deer in a remote place, and Hong Jun sat across it on his back.
"Yo, your horn!" Hong Jun wondered.
The white deer's horns actually grew a little, and the wounds healed by Hong Jun had healed, like a short dragon's horn.
"Slowly grow up." White Hart replied, "Grasp it."
Immediately after the white deer began to trot, it ran faster and faster, as if driving off the fog like a cloud, leaving the official road, stepping into the wilderness, four hoofs and the wind, and swept across the green wheat field with a sound, carrying Hongjun flying like grass The wind swept the ground and stepped into the mountains quickly.
If you are riding a horse, you need to walk around the official road. It takes at least half a day from Chang'an to Jiujia Mountain, and the White Deer's speed is so fast that it takes a short cut, just one hour, and it arrived outside Zhaoling at dusk. However, the high-speed travel eventually consumes energy, and when it turns into a person again, Lu Xubian sits on the steps outside Zhaoling and can't help gasping.
"You are almost flying." Hong Jun said, "don't worry so much."
"It's okay to run short distances," Lu Xu gasped. "It's not good to run down long distances like that. The big wolf has good physical strength, but he doesn't know where he went."
Zhaoling sits east to west and is built on the mountain. It is trapped in the mountain like a huge palace, and there are many tombs of ministers beside it. Jiujia Mountain was deserted originally, and there were originally guardians of the tomb. After this incident, the guardians of the tomb were temporarily withdrawn to the village of Guojia in the foot of the mountain.
The cold wind blew, and the grass and trees rustled on the mountain. Hong Jun felt an unexplained yin. Even the emperor's tomb did not change its sensuous atmosphere.
Hong Jun: "Are you afraid of ghosts?"
"It's okay." Lu Xu felt a little hairy in his heart.
The two stood side by side under the entrance archway of Zhaoling. Hong Jun was a little scared if he came alone, saying that he must not wake up the carp demon behind, but with Lu Xuzai, it would be much better.
For a long time, he hadn't used his magic weapon or fight. Hong Jun was unavoidable. He shook the five-color light and held a flying knife between his fingers.
"You have no weapon magic weapon." Hong Jun remembered that Lu Xu used only a shovel.
"The big wolf said to get me a hand." Lu Xu replied.
"Then you follow me." Hongjun held the five-color Shenguang in his left hand and the flying knife in his right, stepping into the Zhaoling range.
Lu Xu: "OK, I will hide behind you."
This is the first time Hong Jun has investigated the case himself, and he has taken a complete rookie, Lu Xu, and replaced Li Jinglong. He came over without thinking, and always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't speak for a while.
"Do you think it's a ghost?" Lu Xu asked.
"What do you think?" Hong Jun had no idea at all, and they turned around outside Zhaoling.
Lu Xu said: "Maybe it is a demon."
Hong Jun nodded and agreed. Lu Xu used to be a scout. Although he had only one soul and one soul at that time, he often sent letters, and he had generally seen the investigation.
"Where is the dead?" Hong Jun murmured.
The sun was about to go down, and the two came to the entrance of Zhaoling. At the bottom was a series of steps. There was no strange noise, just cold wind. A row of brick houses outside the mausoleum is expected to be a place to live, and the smell inside the house is very pungent.
"Blood." Lu Xu said.
Hongjun also smelled, kicked the door open, and saw that it was all purple and black blood, blood stains, spread to the outside of the house, it seemed that there was a body that was dragged away.
"Here." Hong Jun said, "Follow the blood stains."
