By the way, Nachuan Chizi was holding Du Heng's neck and was about to eat a delicious meal.
At this critical moment, someone suddenly rushed over and punched Nakawa Akako hard.
The little guy screamed in pain and rolled back twice.
When he got up, he looked up again and saw that he was just a mortal. Nachuan Chizi jumped on Jiumu's arm and opened his mouth to take a bite.
The divine blood was like fire, and Jiumu's blood burned Nachuan Chizi with pain, so he quickly let go.
With a cry, Chuan Chizi fled in panic.
Jiu Mu only cared about Du Heng, so how could he care about Chuan Chizi anymore.
Besides, with his divine level, he can only protect himself at most, and there is no use in catching up!
Seeing Du Heng's demented look, Jiu Mu frowned and hurriedly knelt down in front of him.
He held up Du Heng's face and pointed it at himself, only to see that the guy's eyes were empty and dull, and he would not look at Jiumu.
Jiu Mu took a drop of blood from the wound just now and wiped it on his forehead.
Then he gently touched Du Heng's forehead and touched the tip of his nose.
"Du Heng." Jiumu called his name softly.
When he was called for the second time, Du Heng reacted, rolled his eyes, and sighed softly. He was now awake.
As soon as he saw Jiumu, Du Heng immediately got into his arms and refused to let go.
Yun Qi, who was catching up, didn't dare to ask any more questions. Knowing that he was in the wrong, he could only follow Jiu Mu towards the Tianshu Mansion angrily.
The trees shade the moon.
In the shadow of the dense locust trees, the moon fell from the leaves.
Upon seeing this, a colorful cloud rushed over and hurriedly floated over the treetops.
The night continued to get deeper, and the wind was chilling.
The three of them were silent and didn't say a word.
That night, Jiumu knew that Du Heng was in shock, so he guarded him in the attic all night.
Jiumu returned to his room when the sky was dark.
By noon the next day, Du Heng had not received any news of extradition, thinking it would be another uneventful day.
Just as he was about to follow Jiumu to the ferry, his book of death suddenly started to turn.
Du Heng opened the booklet and saw the letter:
Shi Ming (right), No. 9, Lihua Lane, Yashi Street.
The souls awaiting extradition will all have the words "Zheng" and "Xing" written on them.
The only "prosperous" people in Tianyu Mountain are the sixth-level demigods from the four families, namely the Xiao family of Tianshu Prefecture, the Su family of Dongxi Prefecture, the Yuan family of Zhensu Prefecture, and the Meng family of Xusu Prefecture.
The word "zheng" represents the lower-class demigods or the side families that have no relationship with these four houses, and they must be ranked after the word "xing" to board the ship.
Because these soul-calling ghosts are the lowest-ranking creatures in Tianyu Mountain, they mostly talk about "xing".
It can be seen that whether they are humans, demigods, or gods like the Xiao family, they all live cautiously in Tianyu Mountain.
Only when a person lives to a hundred years old can he be reincarnated into the family of demigods.
Only when a demigod reaches one hundred years old will he be classified as "upright" and extradited to Weasui together with "Xing".
Not even a minute or a second will do.
Although Du Heng didn't say anything, he felt more or less disappointed.
There was a hint of complaint in the look he gave Jiumu, as if the arrangement of "xing" and "right" was arranged by Jiumu.
Three will-o'-the-wisps were lit on Du Heng's shoulders and head respectively. He turned into a blue light and disappeared suddenly.
There is a house with a courtyard beside the Weishui River. The main building has two floors, which is not big.
The entrance is very atmospheric, made of sandalwood, so the surrounding area is filled with fragrance.
Two coral red column lanterns hang on the dark doorway.
On the plaque engraved with the phoenix and coiling dragon totems, there are three words Yuheng Mansion.
No one can tell in what era the Yuheng Mansion existed. They only know that it was used as a place to register souls waiting to be ferried.
In addition to Yun Qi, the person responsible for registration and filing was a girl with a very impressive family background - Su Mi, the daughter of Dong Xi Mansion.
Su Mi had a round face, thick eyebrows, a slight smile, and was very polite and considerate.
His father is the demigod in charge of land division in Tianyu Mountain, and his family decides on all housing allocations.
In this case, the unclaimed Yuheng Mansion was tacitly given to the Su family. So people like to call Su Mi the big shopkeeper.
Only Da Siming dares to call her Da. How dare a little girl like Su Mi accept this title? Every time she hears someone call her Da Shopkeeper, she will blush and say, "I'm so annoyed!"
After retorting for a long time, she was given the title of Young Shopkeeper. In short, there was no doubt that the shopkeeper was hers.
Seeing Jiumu coming, Su Mi hurriedly greeted him and said that he had made scented tea in the flower hall and he could take a pot with him on the way.
Jiu Mu responded with a smile as a thank you.
One after another, soul-calling ghosts came over and brought the dead. Su Mi called and checked the signs, while Yun Qi quickly recorded them with only a thin brush.
As for Du Heng, he was in trouble again as usual.
Arriving at Shi Ming's home, the descendants' relatives were having the last reunion dinner in front of the memorial tablet.
Shi Ming was reluctant to leave his relatives and was unwilling to leave with Du Heng.
Because although Shi Ming was a low-level demigod when he was still alive, he was already over a hundred years old and had become a veritable departed soul. His status was naturally far above that of Du Heng, a brat.
Du Heng didn't dare to force him, he could only persuade him with kind words.
Not only did Du Hengfang say a few words in a hurry, Shi Ming stepped forward and kicked him, shouting, "You're just a low-class brat, why are you acting so arrogant on my side?"
Even if he was "righteous", he would naturally have to endure these grievances. Du Heng got up from the ground, not daring to say another word, and waited anxiously at the door.
Finally, Shi Ming was willing to leave, and Du Heng hurriedly came up to take Shi Ming's sign with a smile on his face.
Shi Ming's eyes were contemptuous, and he continued to be cunning, "If I don't have the courtesy, how can I give it to you?"
Following Shi Ming's instructions, Du Heng hurriedly knelt down to pick up the sign.
Shi Ming saw how good-looking this despicable spirit conjurer was. On a whim, he took off one of his shoes and threw it in front of Du Heng, mockingly saying, "Little brother, can you help me put the shoe on?"
Du Heng took the shoes and knelt on the ground, putting them on respectfully.
Shi Ming took advantage of this and stepped on Du Heng's bare forehead, and said with a smile, "It's really a blessing."
After putting on his shoes, Du Heng bowed three more times before getting up and leading him to Yuheng Mansion.
The etiquette along the way was done carefully and without any slack.
Jiumu drank tea in the room for a long time, and saw people sitting on the boat. He estimated that it was about time. When he got up and went to the deck, Su Mi happened to come in and said with a smile, "Does Du Heng have any errands today?"
Jiumu nodded and asked, "The boy hasn't come here yet?"
Su Mi shook his head after hearing this, and then listened to Jiumu's instructions, "Tell Yun Qi to wait for that kid and don't rush to close."
After hearing this, Su Mi smiled with her face hidden, held up her skirt and went out to say something to Yun Qi. Yun Qi rolled his eyes at Jiu Mu and slammed the book shut.
At this time, Du Heng happened to run over and hurriedly stopped and begged, "Auntie, wait a moment, auntie."
Yun Qi took the sign from Su Mi, rolled his eyes at the procrastinating guy, and sneered, "When one day I am qualified to attract interest, I won't need to be so groveling."
After hearing this, Shi Ming was naturally dissatisfied. He thought that he was an elder and yet he was being humiliated by this girl, both covertly and overtly.
Then he said angrily, "Is it possible that only your Xiao family can produce a serious god?"
Yun Qi did not raise his head and said scornfully, "Regardless of humans, ghosts, or gods, dignity and inferiority are equal."
Seeing that Shi Ming was so angry that he was about to lift the table, Su Mi came up to him and led Shi Ming forward, saying, "Yun Qi is not sensible. Uncle, I don't remember the faults of villains. This time, I will teach her a lesson. Now the ship is about to Let’s go, Jiumu is waiting for you specially.”
As soon as Su Mi finished speaking, he heard someone shouting, "Set up the sails."
All the spirit-calling ghosts were kneeling on the ground. Shi Ming didn't even bother to look at Yun Qi, and hurried to the ferry led by Su Mi.
------------------
Fearing that something would happen again in the city, Yun Qi finished his errands and went to guard Tianji Bridge early instead of waiting for Jiumu to come back.
The sky is gradually getting darker, and the setting sun is at the right time. It hangs on the same color of water and sky, giving birth to a rich and colorful ray of sunset.
The reeds were blown to the ground by the wind, and the muddy smell of the grass roots was very strong, blowing over with the wind.
Waterbirds skimmed the river low, then turned and flew high again, their chirping sounds scattered by the river wind, making them erratic.
Yun Qi is wearing pink clothes and plain shoes, with thick eyebrows and slightly raised eyebrows. She is enjoying herself very much.
"He wouldn't come if you were here." Yun Qi was startled by the sudden words.
When Jiu Mu saw the pretentiousness just now, Yun Qi almost became angry. He stood up from the pier and said, "How can an ignorant guy point his fingers?"
Jiumu Mu was not angry after hearing this, and just said, "The prey will not come to the door by itself."
After hearing this, Yun Qi felt that it was stupid to just wait and see. He glanced at Du Heng and said with a smile, "Leave it to you."
Du Heng nodded reluctantly, and Jiumu warned again, "Just run, I'll wait for you at White Deer Lane."
After saying that, he went with the cloud flag.
The sky gradually became dark, and a star appeared in the east.
The wind was a bit stronger than in the evening, and the howling sound made Du Heng's scalp numb.
Du Heng touched his smooth head and bravely entered the reed marsh.
I don't know if Du Heng is gifted or because he has stayed in Tianshu Mansion for a long time. The unique blue will-o'-the-wisp on his body has a different kind of temptation to those mountain spirits and monsters.
Chuan Chizi cannot resist the temptation of delicious food, and is attracted by the smell.
There were wild grass everywhere, as if they were coming from all directions, and they didn’t even know which direction to run.
Suddenly, a pair of wet little hands stuck to Du Heng's neck. The guy pulled at it like crazy for a while, and then ran away risking his life.
The worried Jiumu was staring at this side from a tree in Bailu Lane, watching the panicked Du Heng run in the wrong direction and went straight to Yashi Street.
"Oops!" Jiu Mu jumped down from the tree and hurried after him.
When Yun Qi saw this, he knew that Du Heng must have lost his chain, so he took out the petals and chased him to Yashi Street with a burst of peach blossom wind.
Du Heng screamed all the way, scurrying around like a headless fly.
Yun Qi was blown several blocks away, and Niutou Lin, three miles away from Bailu Lane, caught the guy.
Without hesitation, Yun Qi temporarily used the Peach Blossom Formation to stun him, turned the peach blossoms into a cloth bag, collected Nachuan Chizi, and hurried to Tianshu Mansion.
Fearing that this guy would wake up, Yun Qi gasped and shouted, "Borrow the way!"
At this point, several lights along the way suddenly went out.
A black figure suddenly jumped up to the beam and chased Yun Qi for a while.
Until Jiumu appeared, the black shadow suddenly disappeared without a trace.
