Chapter 36
Chapter 36
Xie Cong in the car had already looked away from Jiang Yuhan.
He was a little curious about how to save the ghost, but the other party didn't reveal anything, just kept silent and didn't know what he was thinking.
Jing Cen pressed his hat awkwardly, Xie Cong raised his eyebrows, and finally suppressed what he wanted to say.
The few house fairies in the trunk fainted at this moment, and the car fell into an unspeakable silence again.
Ji Hui is actually still thinking about Jiang Yuhan.When the car was leaving just now, he looked back in a strange way, only to see the man looking down at the bite mark, and for some reason, he felt a little uncomfortable.
The scenes that happened during the day flashed in his mind, Ji Hui gritted his teeth, and opened his eyes in the darkness.
What exactly does Jiang Yuhan mean?
Cars drove by outside, and the shops on the side of the road were reflected from the car windows, and the neon lights kept flashing. After a while, they finally arrived at the park that Ji Hui said.
"Want us to help?"
After stopping the car, Xie Cong suddenly asked.
Ji Hui came back to his senses with a half-smile: "Why, you want to see how I can save people?"
Xie Cong choked when asked, but his brows that had been tense for a day finally relaxed.
"It's fine if you don't want to."
Ji Hui ignored him, just opened the car door, walked to the trunk, and picked up a few cages.
A few heavy cages are not too difficult for him.After all, it is a ghost, and the small cage is the weight of a bee to him.
After picking up a few house immortals, Ji Hui turned around.
Under the empty night sky, they could only hear a voice.
"Let's go back."
"I'll let you know when I have news."
"I didn't take the trouble to bring these out so they could die."
For this reason, he was exposed in front of Jiang Yuhan.
Ji Hui frowned.
In a word, Wei Wei dispelled some of Xie Cong's worries, Xie Cong glanced at the park: "Then shall we go back?"
Ji Hui replied lazily.
When the cage was in his hands, it disappeared together. Xie Cong and the others couldn't even identify which direction he went, they could only watch the coldness leave.
Jing Cen loosened the brim of his hat, and for some reason, he let out a slight breath when Ling Ling left behind.
Xie Cong looked back at him instead.
"You..." He was interrupted by Jing Cen before he finished speaking.
"What's wrong with me?"
"I'm fine."
"Let's go back quickly."
Xie Cong watched his reaction and frowned thoughtfully.
At this time, Jing Cen was about to return to the car, when Xie Cong suddenly said, "You seem to have forgotten to ask Mr. Jiang today."
In the past, Jing Cen didn't say he was talking about it, but he kept looking at Jiang Yuhan from time to time.
Today...he seemed to seldom look in Jiang Yuhan's direction, and he didn't speak to Jiang Yuhan when he finally left.Xie Cong joked, "Don't you like Jiang Yuhan?"
"It doesn't mean that you can't catch up with people."
Jing Cen: ...
He likes Jiang Yuhan, but Jiang Yuhan doesn't like him.Jing Cen felt annoyed when he thought of how many times he had run into a wall and lost all face.
Losing face so many times in front of Ling Ling made him feel bad again.
"Aren't you going yet?"
"Let's go."
Seeing his reaction, Xie Cong hid the deep thought in his eyes and got into the car.
……
Ji Hui didn't know what happened outside the park.
After entering the park, he took a few house fairies to the ecological forest behind the park.
The place he agreed with Ghost Boy is relatively secret.After all, in the middle of the night, the two ghosts should be more careful.After the red wedding dress passed through the bushes, Ji Hui saw a pale and gloomy little hand waving to him from a distance.
In the middle of the night, in the deserted park woods, under the dim street lights, there is a ghost hand protruding from the bushes.
If a timid person came, he would definitely faint on the spot.
Ji Hui twitched the corner of his mouth, and when Guitong called "Mother" excitedly, he still said, "I'm here."
The ghost boy didn't realize how frightening his image was, so he poked his head out from the bushes holding the doll, first half of his head, then half of his body.
After he came out, there were blood leaves all over his body.
If Ji Hui didn't know that Gui Tong was bleeding himself, this appearance would be like a murder scene.He was dispelled by the little ghost in front of him because of Jiang Yuhan's strange psychology. After the ghost boy came out, he couldn't help asking: "Why are you hiding here?"
The two only agreed to be in the woods, and Ji Hui thought that the ghost boy would be in the pavilion in front.Guitong shook his head, showing an innocent smile.
"I want to surprise my mother."
Ji Hui: ...
There was no surprise, it almost became a shock.
I don't know what this kid has learned in the past few days when I'm not here.
He has a headache on his forehead.
Guitong didn't know that his mother felt very complicated about his surprise, so his eyes turned to the cage in his mother's hand.
"Mother, is this the partner you found for me?"
The house immortals in the cage were sickly, as if they were about to die.
Ji Hui took Guitong's hand: "Let's go, go to the pavilion in front."
The ghost boy only glanced at it, and his attention was soon attracted by his mother.
Ji Hui originally thought that this little ghost would be very excited to see a small animal of the same age, but he didn't expect that the other party would just take a look at him and entangle him, like a real child, and said aggrievedly:
"Mom hasn't seen me for a long time."
Ji Hui: ...a little guilty.
After all, he was the one who brought this kid out, and it was true that he hadn't brought him up for a few days.He vaguely talked about the paper shop in the alley.
Guitong thought deeply in his dark eyes.
"That place suddenly appeared...is it the same as Fengzhao Garden?"
Ji Hui nodded, his mind returned to what he was thinking before, and he looked at Guitong.
"By the way, I've always wanted to ask you a question."
"How do you stay sane in Fengzhao Garden?"
Fengzhao Garden is almost full of ghosts in the abyss, only this ghost boy is not.
Ji Hui always felt a little strange.
He could feel that this little ghost had no ill intentions towards him, holding his hand was small but caring, so Ji Hui chose to ask.
Guitong turned around, hesitated for a moment, and lowered his voice: "I told mother not to be angry."
"You said."
After seeing Ji Hui's calm expression, Guitong said:
"It's because of mother."
"I secretly borrowed my mother's shelter."
Secretly borrowed the mother's protection?
Ji Hui didn't expect such an answer.
Knowing that the mother that this little devil talks about is him, then the protection of the mother...
Is it his asylum?
Why didn't he know when he had sheltered this brat?And... I have the ability to fight Fengzhao Garden?
Ji Hui's eyes darkened a bit, Gui Tong couldn't see his expression, and was a little anxious after walking into the pavilion.
"Mother, I didn't lie."
"It's because the mother has longevity flowers on her body."
"The longevity flower sheltered me."
Speaking of which, it's a pity for the ghost boy. It just has the seeds of longevity flowers on its body, unlike the human surnamed Jiang, who is a sacrifice that belongs directly to the mother.
longevity flower...
It really was that thing.
Ji Hui had suspected it was that since Gui Tong said that he had an inexplicable fragrance when they first met, but he didn't expect it to be so.
He paused, thinking of the flowers blooming in his heart.
That thing is really weird.
It's just that how can the ghost boy have the seeds of longevity flowers?
Guitong shook his head, expressing that he didn't know either.It's just the moment I saw my mother, there was this kind of memory.
Seeing that the little ghost was very anxious, Ji Hui reached out and touched the little braid on his head.
"All right."
"I don't doubt what you mean."
"The way you said to cure these house immortals should be related to longevity flowers?"
After he spoke, the ghost boy nodded.
"Mother just needs to plant seeds in them like I did."
Longevity flowers will dispel these special ghost energy, Ji Hui is thoughtful.
Originally, he saved these family immortals only because he didn't want to make a loss-making business, but now he also wanted to experience the seeds that Gui Tong said.
He can feel that he is the longevity flower, and the longevity flower is him, but he still doesn't know how to use the longevity flower.
Guitong is not clear about how to operate it, but he just suggested that his mother should try it out.
Longevity flower, Ji Hui leaned aside, his mind gradually relaxed.
Trying to recall the flower in my heart that has not fully opened its buds.
As he slowly recalled, there seemed to be some ideas in his mind.
Just when the ghost boy lowered his head and teased a few sleepy animals.Ji Hui stood up. He first walked to the most injured weasel, and a wisp of evil spirit penetrated from the cage at his fingertips, and entered the weasel's body silently.
The weasel was still in a coma, without a trace of reaction.
Ji Hui imagined the appearance of the flower bud in his heart, slowly controlled the evil spirit, and planted a nucleus in the heart under its fur.
The black evil energy slowly condensed, and soon turned into a seed-like thing, but the seed would never germinate.
When planting the seeds with his own hands, Ji Hui squinted his eyes, as if he vaguely understood Guitong's closeness to him.
This is somewhat like an instinctive reaction from a child branch to a mother tree.
He retracted his fingertips and carefully looked inside the weasel's body.I saw that the newly formed seeds seemed to have some kind of attraction, and they were actually absorbing the ghost energy of the weasel.
As the seeds take shape, there are fewer and fewer dark spots on the weasel's fur.
Guitong raised his head curiously, only to see Ji Huihui take his hand back.
"it works."
Guitong finally breathed a sigh of relief.
According to the method of planting seeds just now, Ji Hui planted seeds for several other family immortals one after another.Watch the traces of infestation on them slowly recover.
With a thought, he saw the seeds in the bodies of several small animals.
He moved his gaze to the ghost boy.
Sure enough, he saw a small seed in his empty heart.
Ji Hui: ...
It turned out to be his "mother".
The feeling of inexplicably happy to be a mother made him a little subtle. Before, he always felt that Guitong had admitted the wrong person.
Tsk, isn't it more responsible now?
Guitong didn't know what his mother was thinking, and after seeing the improvement of a few celestial beings, he clapped his hands happily and said, "Mom, they should be back to normal soon."
Ji recalled something, frowned and hesitated.
"They will call me mother like you?"
Guitong was stunned for a moment, but he didn't think about this question.
"Probably not?"
The two ghosts looked at the cage strangely for a moment.
……
But fortunately, although the seeds were planted to get rid of the ghost energy in the bodies of several house immortals, it was not so fast.None of the small animals in the cages woke up.
Ji Hui took the cage back at night.
He came back in the early morning so quietly that even Jing Cen didn't notice.I didn't rub my eyes until I saw a few cages in the living room the next day.
cage……
Back spirit came back last night?
He immediately wanted to go upstairs in surprise, but thought that the other party might have just come back and was resting at the moment, so he stopped and turned to look at these house immortals.
Jing Cen walked over and frowned.
"Why do I feel that the color of these house immortals seems not so dark?"
He took pictures with his mobile phone for comparison.
At this time, Xie Cong also came down. He had just compiled a report on the things in the alley and sent it to Xuanmen last night. He hadn't received the notification yet. When he came out to drink water, he saw the cage in the living room and couldn't help squinting.
That ghost is back?
So fast?
After he walked over, he saw Jing Cen frowning in contrast, and looked down.
"The situation of these house immortals is indeed improving." He could see the appearance better than Jing Cen.
Apart from the fur and bones, the ghostly aura in the bodies of these house immortals seemed to have been restored, and the situation was obviously much better than last night.
There was such a big change in just one night.
Xie Cong looked up thoughtfully, and looked upstairs.
At this time, his phone vibrated, Xie Cong walked over and closed the door to answer the phone, and walked out after a while with a complicated expression.
"what happened?"
Jing Cen saw his expression was a little strange.
"It's nothing." Xie Cong smiled, just looking at the cage on the ground.
Just now the elder of the Xie family from Xuanmen contacted him, saying that he wanted to meet this ghost.
only……
Li Gui's safety was difficult to guarantee. Although Xie Cong guessed that after two successive verifications, Xuanmen would pay attention to Li Gui's words, but he did not expect that they would want to see him.
This was somewhat beyond his expectation.
Xie Cong was also not sure if the other party would agree, after all, that ghost's temperament was always difficult to figure out.He still doesn't know what the other party's purpose is to save a few house immortals.
he thought to himself.
Upstairs, Ji Hui took a shower after returning from the park.
Hot water was pouring from the shower, and as soon as he lowered his head, he thought of Jiang Yuhan.She had already managed to take her mind off him.But when he came back, by coincidence, Ji Hui saw the glass he was holding the other party again.
The transparent glass is not far away, but he has no desire to drink at all.
Ji Hui. Licked. Licked. Licked. Fangs, thinking of this, reached out and turned off the shower.
I don't know how long it took before I walked out of the bathroom.
It's already dawn outside, at this time... that guy should have gone to work, Ji Hui glanced out the window while brushing his hair.
At this time, the phone suddenly turned on.
Ji Hui paused while wiping his hair, walked over to pick up his phone, only to find that the message was actually from Jiang Yuhan.
He frowned slightly, and found that it was just a string of mobile phone numbers.
What does it mean?
It was the first time Ji Hui received this item.
He raised his eyebrows and looked weird after guessing.
personal number?
Ji Hui guessed right, Jiang Yuhan did give him his personal number.
After hesitating for a while, he sent the number and stared at the phone for a while.However, there was no change on the phone, showing that the person who checked did not reply to him.
There was no expression on the grim face of the man sitting in the office.
At this time, the secretary knocked on the door.
"Mr. Jiang."
"Someone is looking for it."
After the incident in that special alley was reported, the Special Administration Bureau will come over today to make a record.After Jiang Yuhan waited for a while, he still put down his phone.
"Bring someone in."
The secretary nodded, turned and left.
On the other side, Ji Hui frowned at the text message.
He can reply to other words, but it's just a number that doesn't say anything...
Even though he knew what Jiang Yuhan meant, he didn't know how to reply.
After swiping the text message twice, Ji Hui frowned and put away his phone.
Out of sight is pure.
His hair has been dried, and yesterday's weakness has eased a lot after he sucked enough food.Although I still have no strength in my body, I am too lazy to lean on the bed.
But thinking of the few house immortals brought back in the early morning, let's go down and have a look at this time.
See how they are recovering.
Ji Hui stood up after drying his clothes, and when he opened the door, he found Jing Cen and Xie Cong downstairs.
He raised his eyebrows.
"How's it going?"
A familiar voice suddenly sounded in his ear, and Jing Cen answered subconsciously.
"It seems to be recovering well." He didn't realize whose voice it was until he realized it.
Jing Cen turned around in surprise, but saw nothing.
Ji Hui burst out laughing, and Jing Cen remembered that he couldn't see ghosts.
Ji Hui ignored the man's blushing, turned around and walked to the cage, and checked it again.
The detection of ghost gas last night was 30.00% absorbed, and now it is 40.00%.
Good speed.
Just as he stretched out his hand to finish the test, Xie Cong on the side suddenly said, "I have something I want to discuss with you."
Have something to discuss with him?
Ji Huihui withdrew his hand, looked up and saw Xie Cong put away his usual cynical expression, paused, a little helpless.
"I reported the matter of the special alley and the family fairy to Xuanmen."
"They want...to see you." Xie Cong was a little confused when he spoke.
I don't know what that ghost looks like.
At this time, he had the same thought strangely as Jing Cen just now, if only he could see the ghost.He can also judge his thoughts from the other person's face.
Unlike now, you have to guess blindly after speaking.
Xie Cong held the ice water, frowning slightly in his heart.
However, he didn't expect that Ji Hui would not be surprised at all when he heard this sentence.To be honest, Ji Hui had already thought about this when he was in contact with the protagonist Gong, the celestial master.
What's more, he also revealed the fact that the abyss is eroding here. Isn't it reasonable for Xuanmen to be interested in him?
He originally wanted to meet the high-ranking officials of Xuanmen through Xie Cong.
Ji Hui lowered his eyes, raised the corners of his lips, and reached out to touch the big snake inside.However, his long silence caused Xie Cong to misunderstand.
After considering his words, he smiled as if to ease the atmosphere.
"If you don't want to..."
Before he could finish speaking, he heard a half-smile sound from the other side.
"Who said I don't want to?"
"But..." Xie Cong was a little surprised.
Ji Hui stroked the scales of the snake and looked away.
"It's fine to meet them, but I'll decide the location."
"You can tell them."
Xie Cong paused for a moment, realizing that this ghost wanted to take the initiative in his own hands.He looked deeper, and the more he knew about this ghost, the more he felt that it was special, different from other ghosts.If other ghosts heard that the senior officials of the Taoist sect wanted to see him, they would be terrified, but this ghost was too calm.
It was even weird that Xie Cong had the illusion that he was waiting for today.
But now...
The most important thing is to reply to Xuanmen, he paused for a moment, and finally confirmed again with a frown.
"you sure?"
Ji Hui glanced at him.
"I'm sure."
Xie Cong gripped the phone tightly.At this time, Jing Cen was a little worried, but he had always had inexplicable confidence in the spirit behind him.When I didn't understand Xuanmen, I felt that this person was not afraid of anything.
Ji Hui glanced at the cage, and said calmly: "Just checked, these house immortals will wake up in a day."
one day.
Thank you for taking note of the time.
but……
Seemingly knowing what he was going to say, Ji Hui said flatly: "Don't worry, I will contact Xuanmen soon."
"I will call you if a place is fixed."
"It seems that the auction is about to start."
Ji Hui and Jing Cen heard about the auction when they were in the Antique City before, but it was not yet time.During this period of time, I went to Fengzhao Garden and then came back, and the auction time is also up.
Of course Xie Cong will never forget what he promised, and he smiled when he heard the ghost's words: "The seat has been reserved."
Only then was Ji Hui satisfied.
Jing Cen couldn't get his mouth in the whole time when the two were talking, and felt a little uncomfortable for some reason.
Ji Hui didn't know what he thought of, glanced at him, and suddenly said: "Come with me."
"Me?" He was a little surprised.
Ji Hui nodded.
Jing Cen took a look at Xie Cong, and noticed that the coldness around him disappeared, so he couldn't help but followed him upstairs.
But it was a little strange what the spirit behind him told him to do.
However, when he reached the door, he didn't go in, and the spirit behind him just asked him to wait outside the corridor.
After a while, the door of the room was opened.
Jing Cen raised his head and saw a book in the empty place.
"What is this?" He picked it up curiously.
Ji Hui's tone was light.
"Aren't you envious of Xie Cong?"
"Why not try it?"
From Fengzhao Garden to that alley, although Jing Cen didn't say anything, he was indeed a little envious of Xie Cong.He used to have good looks, good family background, good acting skills, and he has always been at the top.
But since the encounter with a ghost, the world seems to have revealed another side to him.
Before meeting Xie Cong, Jing Cen only had him and Back Ling, so he didn't feel anything.But now... thinking that he couldn't understand what the two of them were talking downstairs just now.
Jing Cen was a little annoyed, but his pride prevented him from showing it.
Unexpectedly, the spirit behind it noticed.
"This is... for me?"
He hesitated.
Ji Hui raised his eyebrows: "You don't want to watch?"
Jing Cen immediately withdrew his hand.
"willing."
In fact, Ji Hui just borrowed flowers to offer Buddha. In the book, after Jing Cen came into contact with the spiritual world, he finally learned Taoism.He just gave Jing Cen the opportunity before the elders of Xuanmen discovered Jing Cen's talent.
Why not do things that are convenient for people?
He casually gave it to Jing Cen, but he didn't know that after Jing Cen went back at night, he didn't fall asleep holding the book all night.
Ji Hui shook his head slightly, he looked away, and after Jing Cen left, he was thinking about where he would meet the people from the Taoist sect.
How about an auction?
Just as he was thinking, his phone vibrated again.
Ji Hui lowered his head and saw - it was the number he had just seen this morning.
Hiss, Jiang Yuhan...?
