As soon as I finished speaking, Zhang Wenbin said, "It's Peijun! Look at my wooden head..."
He told me that the reason why he was impressed was because this general actually had a well-mannered name, just like a Jiangnan scholar. He thought it was strange at the time, so he took a second look.
My head was pounding, and I had not yet woken up from the shock.
Unexpectedly, this is really Wen Guangsheng’s duel!
I stayed for a moment, like a wooden stake nailed to the ground, with countless complicated conjectures running through my head.
How could this Tongxin Jade Lock be in the hands of Taoist Bai?
He even made a special trip to forward it to me, as if he knew I was destined to it.
This is no coincidence!
I grabbed the little Taoist boy and asked him where the blood jade lock came from. I was going to see Taoist Master Bai now.
The little Taoist boy said with a sad face: "He went down the mountain. This time he really went down the mountain. Last night, he was invited by the Taoist Master of Qingcheng Mountain to go to Sichuan and Chongqing to deal with a difficult problem..."
He doesn't look like he's lying to me. After all, I only need to find the phone number on Qingcheng Mountain's official website and call him to ask to expose his lie.
I was so angry that I stomped my feet. By chance, I "missed it" again.
"But I know about this jade pendant..."
The little Taoist boy said that Taoist Master Bai brought this back from the mountain a month ago.
This piece of blood jade is hundreds of years old and has been soaked in corpse blood. It has become a habit and will absorb the essence and blood of people when worn.
Taoist Master Bai originally wanted to kill the female ghost, but he thought she was a pitiful person and had not caused any harm to anyone, so he let her go to hell to be punished.
At the end of one month, Taoist Bai released the female ghost and left her.
"At that time, I said I wanted to bury this piece of jade deeply. My uncle said there was no rush. This piece of jade can be given to a destined person. I didn't expect it to be given to you..."
The little Taoist boy was so anxious that he scratched his head and scratched his head: "Zhai Master, you...can you let go?"
Only then did I notice that I was holding on to someone else’s Taoist robe sleeve.
"I'm sorry..." I immediately let go of my hand and smoothed the wrinkles on my clothes: "I'm sorry."
The little Taoist boy shook his head in shock: "Zhai Master, your temper is too impatient. You must be calm in everything...calm..."
It is said that it is easier to go up the mountain than it is to go down the mountain. Walking down from Baiyun Mountain, my legs were shaking.
Compared with before, I gained a lot today. Not only did I get the letter from Taoist Master Bai, but I also received the Tongxin jade pendant from Wen Guangsheng’s fiancée.
God knows how happy he will be when he sees this piece of jade.
It's a pity... his fiancée has already been reincarnated, and he didn't even see her for the last time.
I felt very sad and whispered to Jiang Lanyue that I wanted to return the jade pendant to Wen Guangsheng, which would fulfill his wish!
Jiang Lanyue did not refuse, she just said that the matter was not urgent and she would wait until Zhang Wenbin salvaged another concentric lock!
After waiting for another day, I found what he had hidden in the area I pointed out.
As a military general, Wen Guangsheng was buried with very few objects, and the most valuable one was the Tongxin Jade Lock.
When Zhang Wenbin found the baby, he was so excited that he called and was so choked that he couldn't speak.
"Master Wen, you are so amazing... I found this package on the northeastern shore of the water you mentioned."
This bag of treasures was pressed down by a big stone, but fortunately it didn't hit the jade pendant.
"I'm finally relieved..." Zhang Wenbin sighed.
Although Wen Guangsheng said that he only wanted the jade pendant and didn't care about anything else, Zhang Wenbin still planned to return the entire package of treasures and then have others block the original theft hole.
It’s true that once he was bitten by a snake, he was afraid of the well rope for ten years. How could Zhang Wenbin dare to covet General Gui’s things after this incident?
Not only the ghost general, he must not dare to be greedy for ill-gotten gains from now on.
When things have come to this point, the only thing left to do is return the blood jade lock, and everything will come to a successful conclusion.
Before I could hand over the jade to Wen Guangsheng, his troops came to the door.
On this day, I happened to go to a restaurant with Ahua.
Zhang Wenbin made a lot of money this time, so of course he had to give it a good meal.
"These two thousand yuan are yours." I pushed a bulging red envelope into Ahua's hand.
She held the stack of money, her droopy fish eyes suddenly widened, and her face was filled with disbelief.
"I don't want it!" She put the money on the table, with disinterest written all over her face.
Treating money like dirt, I finally saw it today!
"This is the money you should take. You must accept this money. As for whether you use it to buy clothes or to help others, it is up to you. I don't care." I couldn't help but put the money in. In her patch bag.
Ahua knew my temper, so she licked her lips a few times, but finally accepted it.
We both happily had a hot pot meal. After the meal, I suggested going for a walk by the river to relieve our hunger.
Ahua didn't say anything, she just grabbed my arm and rushed forward quickly, looking back from time to time, as if someone was following us behind us.
I was frightened by her nagging look, so I lowered my voice and asked, "What are you looking at?"
"Shh... don't talk!" Ahua's pale face wrinkled up and told me to leave quickly. Let's go to a crowded place first.
We almost ran all the way, and when we turned into the crowded pedestrian street, she clutched her chest and gasped: "It's so scary, just now... I just saw a paper man following us, walking all the way out of the hot pot restaurant. Follow behind."
When I heard Paper Man, my scalp went numb. Even though it was twenty-seven or eight degrees outside and there were so many people around me, I still felt chilled.
I originally thought that the paper man wouldn't bother me again recently, but I didn't expect that it has been following me all the time. It seems that I can't take it so lightly anymore...
"Is that paper man still there?" I asked tremblingly.
At this moment, I'm very glad that I don't have a clear eye and can't see these gods and ghosts, otherwise, I will definitely have a heart attack.
Ahua shook her head: "No more, a burnt ancient soldier rushed out in the middle, and burned the paper man in a few strokes..."
As she was talking, Ahua looked at my left shoulder nervously, her pupils contracted rapidly, and she grabbed my arm, as if... there was a terrible thing on my back.
I stiffened my neck and was too scared to move. After a few seconds, Ahua relaxed visibly: "It's General Wen's soldiers and horses. He came to deliver a message, saying... General Wen will come to your altar to make a black flag." Soldiers and horses.”
Come on, Jiang Lanyue really got it right!
I was frightened, with question marks written all over my face.
Why did Wen Guangsheng suddenly want to be my soldier?
Ahua said that she didn't know either. The ghost general was just a messenger, and she didn't say much. She just asked us to prepare the things for the altar and put them into the altar according to the procedures.
The arrangements were made clearly, so I just waited to accept them.
This matter is of great benefit to me without any harm. It can not only gather troops, but also allow Wen Guangsheng to get rid of the constraints of the region and accumulate merit. Why not do it?
I walked briskly back to the dormitory. As soon as I entered the door, I saw a black shadow sitting on the sofa with legs crossed.
Those legs were long and straight, which made me tremble and my throat felt dry for no reason.
"Jiang Lanyue?"
