People are among the Eight Immortals, starting from Painted Skin Ghost

Chapter 174 According to the decree of the Great Emperor, I grant you the great law of exorcising demons, and the King Kong is indestructible with a big red robe! 【Subscribe】

Hearing the sound, Han Xiangzi lowered his eyes and stood in a corner of the imperial study, leaning slightly.

After a few breaths, the majestic Emperor Tang, dressed in a dragon robe, with square eyebrows and wide forehead, stepped in.

"Poverty Han Xiangzi, I have met His Majesty the Tang Emperor."

Seeing the Emperor Tang, Han Xiangzi acted as a mockery and saluted.

Maybe it was because he didn't sleep well last night, or because he was overly frightened, the Emperor Tang looked haggard and depressed.

"Master Dong Xiao, you don't need to be too polite."

Tang Huang came to the dragon chair and sat down, and he cheered up and said.

After finishing speaking, he took a closer look at Han Xiangzi, and saw that his golden appearance and jade quality, his beautiful appearance, and his appearance with loose crane bones were not inferior to Master Luofu and Master Chunyang.

Emperor Tang knew that this person was just as rumored.

Most of them have great supernatural powers.

"Come here, give Daoist Dongxiao a seat!"

After sizing up, Tang Huang gave orders to the outside world.

Soon, a guard brought a seat and placed it beside Han Xiangzi.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Regarding this, Han Xiangzi was not polite, and sat down directly.

"Pindao heard from Brother Ye Dao a few days ago that His Majesty has been worrying and dreaming recently, and was even haunted by ghosts last night, making it difficult to sleep peacefully."

Han Xiangzi looked at Emperor Tang and asked him directly.

"What Guoshi Yuanzhen said is true, if the guards hadn't come in in time last night, I'm afraid I would have been in trouble."

Tang Huang's heart trembled, and he said with a little fear.

"Your Majesty, can you describe to Pindao what happened in the palace last night?"

Han Xiangzi didn't doubt him, so he asked.

"After I fell asleep last night, at about midnight, when I fell asleep, I was suddenly awakened by a rustling sound. I wanted to open my eyes, but I felt that someone was pinching my eyelids, my limbs were weak, and even my body was being pressed down by a heavy object. , unable to move."

"At this time, I clearly noticed that someone was moving around in the bedroom, and then my porcelain, imperial brushes, tea sets, etc. all fell to the ground, and even the incense burner arrived."

"However, when the forbidden army rushed into the bedroom, they didn't find anyone, and even the doors and windows were intact."

Tang Huang recalled the situation last night, and stated to Han Xiangzi.

"It seems that there are evil spirits making trouble in Your Majesty's bedroom."

Hearing this, Han Xiangzi came to a conclusion.

"The real Dongxiao has a way to get rid of this evil spirit for me?"

Hearing this, Emperor Tang hurriedly asked.

If the evil spirits are not eliminated, he will have trouble falling asleep every night, and if things go on like this, even his iron-clad body will not be able to survive.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, the poor have their own magic."

Han Xiangzi pondered for a while, and spoke with confidence.

"What wonderful method is it?" Tang Huang's complexion changed, and he became interested.

"This wonderful method is to be used by His Majesty's hair."

Han Xiangzi asked.

"It's okay, Fasil, I have a lot of it on me."

Tang Huang smiled lightly, and when he learned that Master Dong Xiao had a way to solve his nightmare, the haze on his face suddenly disappeared by half.

"This strand of hair is for your majesty's Yintang acupoint, a strand facing the sky." Han Xiangzi said again.

"A ray to the sky? How much is that?"

Tang Huang looked a little unnatural, and his tone was slightly hesitant.

"Three fingers are enough." Hearing this, Han Xiangzi stretched out three fingers.

"Then Master Dongxiao, please take it off quickly."

Only three roots are needed, Tang Huang thinks it is not a problem.

So, he lowered his head slightly and said.

Seeing this, Han Xiangzi flicked the purple gold jade flute around his waist, and in an instant, a green glow seemed to flash across the top of the Tang Emperor's head.

In an instant, three strands of hair fell into Han Xiangzi's palm.

"Your Majesty, offended."

After taking off the hair, Han Xiangzi apologized.

"What did Master Dongxiao say, you are just helping me to solve my problems." Emperor Tang waved his hand.

Not long after, he couldn't help but ask again:
"Then what will Daoist Dongxiao do next?"

"We'll talk about everything after dark."

Han Xiangzi looked up at the dusk outside the window and said with a smile.

……

night time.

Tang Huang followed the eunuchs out of the imperial study, as usual, the eunuch Chen Gonggong went to the bedroom first, and lit the nourishing pill.

As for Emperor Tang, he went to sleep in the bedroom after being washed.

"Master Dong Xiao, you...?!"

In the imperial study.

The Emperor Tang stood there dumbfounded, looking at Han Xiangzi in disbelief.

Just now, Daoist Dong Xiao used his three strands of hair to conjure himself.

Whether it was his demeanor or his figure, that person seemed to be carved out of the same appearance.

"Your Majesty, without this method, the ghost will not be able to show up."

Han Xiangzi said.

"Then... how long can he last?"

Tang Huang was stunned for a moment before asking cautiously.

"If there is no poor Taoist spirit possessed, it will become a dead thing in an instant, and it will turn into its original form in a short time."

Han Xiangzi said in a deep voice.

He knew Tang Huang's concerns, so he spoke decisively.

It is conceivable that if two "Emperors of the Tang Dynasty" suddenly appeared in the palace, it would be a big mess.

"Master Dong Xiao, it's better to use this technique sparingly."

After recovering, Tang Huang said thoughtfully, as if warning.

"Your Majesty, don't worry, if you have to lure out that ghost tonight, the poor will not come up with such a method."

Han Xiangzi said solemnly.

After all, it is the emperor, and the heart of suspicion is quite heavy.

If it wasn't for the fact that the Emperor Tang was a Ming emperor, I am afraid that Han Xiangzi's trick of stealing beams and changing pillars would have been stopped long ago.

"For the rest of the time, I hope that Your Majesty will not walk around in the palace. When the ghost is caught, the poor Taoist will come to give orders."

When the "Tang Emperor" reproduced by Han Xiangzi had finished washing and was about to go to the bedroom, Han Xiangzi's complexion changed and he spoke to Tang Emperor.

"It's natural. I'm here to review the memorial and wait for the good news from Master Dongxiao."

Tang Huang said.

Today, he did not go to court early, and the ministers probably had a lot of papers.

Now, there are almost a bunch of them sent to the imperial study.

Emperor Tang slept for most of the day and only woke up at dusk, so it was really difficult for him to go to bed at this moment.

After Han Xiangzi walked out of the imperial study, he found a quiet place in the palace.

……

The fake Emperor Tang arrived at the bedroom, and soon fell down on the bed and fell asleep.

It's just that after a stick of incense, there was a faint sound.

Under the night, Han Xiangzi was sitting on a long corridor in the palace, his eyes were slightly closed, and his primordial spirit sank into the body of the fake Tang Emperor following the divine thought.

Using this as an example, through the perspective of the fake Tang emperor, the size and layout of the sleeping hall can be seen clearly.

After observing for a few breaths, Han Xiangzi found that everything in the bedroom was the same as before, so he relaxed and waited quietly for the ghost to take the bait.

In this way, an hour flies by in the blink of an eye.

I saw the third watch.

Han Xiangzi's primordial spirit suddenly tensed up, and he noticed that there was movement in the bedroom.

I saw a puff of ghost smoke quietly seeping out from the crack in the door of the sleeping hall.

After a while, he turned into a little ghost with an indigo face.

What does that indigo-faced kid look like?

Thin as a bamboo pole, but only three feet in stature, with a smoky face and a bull nose, one foot is wearing a shoe and the other foot is hanging on the waist, and there is a yun paper fan stuck on the waist.

Seeing the fake Emperor Tang sleeping soundly, this little ghost with an indigo face came in grandiosely.

First, I walked around the bedroom, and then came to the dragon bed. I saw the beautiful white jade under the fake Tang Emperor's pillow, so I stole it out. During the period, I still sat on the fake Tang Emperor. I pinched my nose and pulled my beard from time to time. It was crazy. Extreme!
In addition, the indigo-faced kid seemed to feel nauseated by the aroma of the Yangxin Pill ignited in the golden beast. Doodle a pass.

During the period, seeing the delicate and elegant porcelain placed there, I couldn't put it down and took it off and hid it in my sleeve.

Seeing this scene, Han Xiangzi probably knew the identity of this indigo-faced kid, and he was a wasting ghost.

This wasteful ghost likes to steal other people's property, and loves to enter other people's dreams to frighten people for fun, often bringing disasters to people.

The wasting ghost had had enough tossing around, and came to the dragon bed again, stepping on the fake Tang Emperor.

at this time.

The fake Emperor Tang suddenly opened his eyes, glared at the wasteful ghost angrily, and cursed:
"You ghost, you are so bold, you dare to make trouble in the palace and disturb the emperor!"

As soon as this word comes out.

Consumable Ghost's expression suddenly changed, and he fell out of the bed in fright, and even the property he had stolen before fell to the ground.

"You...you are not the emperor!"

"Who exactly are you?"

The wasting ghost crawled up, looked at the fake Emperor Tang in surprise and anger, and said.

"The poor Taoist is the real Dongxiao!"

The fake Emperor Tang sneered.

As the words fell, a golden light flashed in the bedroom, and Han Xiangzi, who was originally in the corridor, arrived here in a flash.

"Real?"

Hearing this, the wasting ghost's face was horrified, before he had time to think about it, he waved the fan in his hand, and a gust of evil wind blew up on the field for no reason.

I've heard of Daoist real people and wasting ghosts.

It thought it was not Han Xiangzi's opponent, so it was better to escape first.

"Little devil, where are you going?" Han Xiangzi shouted sharply.

Say it.

He also pointed and poked, and a cold glow suddenly appeared in the void, and he hit the wasting ghost.

It's a pity that the wasted ghost's kick tied around his waist flew out without warning and stopped him.

Bang!
That foot was hit by Han Xiangzi's spell, and it immediately turned into powder.

When he looked at the indigo-faced little ghost again, he had already escaped from the bedroom.

Seeing this, Han Xiangzi was about to go after him.

Only then did he realize that the wasting ghost was trembling and retreating back with a look of fear at some point.

At this moment, Han Xiangzi realized that there was another big ghost outside the bedroom door.

This big ghost is much taller than the wasting ghost.

It looks more terrifying

I saw that this ghost was wearing a red robe, with a leopard head and ring eyes, an iron face and a beard, a black hat, and black hair. Its appearance was extremely ugly, and it was even more terrifying than the king of Hades!

"Bold and wasteful ghost, dare to make trouble in the palace, what crime should I deserve!"

As soon as the big red-robed ghost entered the door, he yelled at the wasteful ghost.

"Master Zhong, spare your life! Master Zhong, spare your life, the kid knows his mistake!"

Seeing the big red-robed ghost, the wasting ghost was so frightened that he repeatedly begged for mercy.

Regarding this, the big ghost had an indifferent expression on his face, and caught the consumption ghost without any explanation.

Then he broke it with both hands, tore it in half, and then tore it a little bit, and swallowed it in one gulp.

"belch!"

At the end, the big red-robed ghost burped.

Seeing this situation, Han Xiangzi's face turned serious immediately.

This big red-robed ghost has such an image, he has already guessed the identity of the latter, that is Zhong Kui!
It seems that even if he doesn't come tonight, the Emperor Tang is still carefree.

Zhong Kui will catch ghosts for him.

Afterwards, Tang Huang thought of his merits and deeds, and he will be named the holy king of town house exorcising demons.

"Who is the strong man?"

Suppressing his thoughts, Han Xiangzi asked a question as usual even though he knew his identity.

"My Zhong Kui is from Zhongnan Mountain."

The big red-robed ghost said.

"How can a poor man become a ghost when he sees a strong man who is eager for justice and hates evil?"

Han Xiangzi asked.

"It's a long story. In the past, I was the champion of high school, but there was a sycophant in the field who said that I was not good-looking, and it was difficult to be the champion. I argued with the sycophant. Because the Holy One was partial, I was annoyed and died in a fit of anger. On the Golden Luan Hall."

"After I died, the underworld was not closed, so I wandered around and learned a little bit of magic."

Zhong Kui said.

"It's like this..."

Han Xiangzi suddenly came to his senses, Zhong Kui's experience was the same as what he was familiar with in his previous life.

"I still don't know who the boss is?"

Not long after, Zhong Kui looked at Han Xiangzi curiously.

"Pimpedao is Han Xiangzi, the real person of the hole flute in the world."

Han Xiangzi laughed.

"It turned out that it was a real person face to face, and a certain family was disrespectful!"

As soon as he heard that Han Xiangzi was a real person, Zhong Kui became more polite to him.

"Don't dare."

"Tonight, Pindao followed His Majesty's orders and came here to catch ghosts. Now the ghost of wasting is killed. Speaking of which, brother Zhong Kui has contributed a lot."

"I don't know if I would like to go to the imperial study with Pindao to meet His Majesty?"

Han Xiangzi shook his head and smiled, and suggested.

"This……"

"Thank you Dongxiao for your kindness. From a certain family's point of view, this matter may be inappropriate. How can I, an ugly person, dare to scare the Holy One?"

Hearing this, Zhong Kui hesitated.

In the end, Han Xiangzi was rejected.

In this regard, Han Xiangzi persuaded:

"Brother Zhong Kui, don't underestimate yourself. A person's appearance is given by his parents. How can we change it? Let go of the knot of self-seeking, so that you can see through your soul."

"Today, the Son of Heaven is a wise king. If he knows what happened to you, he will definitely pity you. If he can give you a title, it will be better than this ghost body."

The words fall.

Zhong Kui was stunned, and thought for a while before he felt that Dong Xiao's words made sense.

Therefore, he smiled relievedly:
"Forget it, just according to Master Dongxiao's words."

After finishing speaking, the two went to the sleeping hall together, and went to the imperial study.

……

……

The world, Taihe Mountain.

That mysterious qi and jade are in the sky.

On this day, the Great Emperor Zhenwu suddenly had a sudden whim, and saw the exorcism sword in the palace ready to move, which seemed to be a sign of flying, and then his mind moved, and he realized:
"It seems that the person who is destined for this exorcism sword has already appeared."

Not long after, Emperor Zhenwu looked at the Three Realms, and found this destined person in just a moment.

At that moment, he murmured to himself and said in surprise:
"Coincidentally, this person is in the palace, and he is also acquainted with Daoist Dongxiao, let the emperor count him as his follower..."

After a few breaths, the Nine Heavens Demon Slayer Patriarch knew Zhong Kui's origin.

Never, he thought to himself:
"I can't imagine that there are such people in the world who are willing to sacrifice their lives for righteousness. It's really rare."

"Today, there is still a lack of a general who can exterminate demons and subdue demons in the court to walk the world and proclaim my orthodoxy. At present, this son is quite suitable..."

While thinking about it, Emperor Zhenwu preached to the outside world:
"Where is Yuebo Tianjun?"

"I don't know what orders the emperor has?"

After the words fell, Jun Tian came to the hall and asked respectfully.

"At present in Chang'an of the world, there is a man named Zhong Kui who falls in love with this Emperor."

"This emperor ordered you to go to Chang'an to find him, and teach him the great method of exorcising demons. He will also give you an indestructible big red robe, an exorcism sword, a soul-restraining flag, a seal of suppressing evil spirits, and an umbrella for subduing demons."

Emperor Zhenwu ordered.

"what?!"

"My lord, the Exorcist Sword was trained after imitating the Hei Chi Qiujiao Demon-Breaking Sword in the north. Why is it given to others now?"

Hearing this, Nayuebo Tianjun was taken aback for a moment, and said in surprise, feeling a little unbelievable.

In addition, exorcism is an extremely powerful magic spell of Zhenwu.

There are only two turtle and snake generals and 36-day generals in the lineage of the ancestor of the nine-day demon.

Now, for no reason, it was given to an unknown person, which really puzzled Yuebo Tianjun.

I don't know what the emperor means?
"This exorcism sword is a high-grade real weapon, a psychic thing, just now there is a throbbing for no reason, and this emperor has found a destined person."

"Yuebo Tianjun doesn't need to ask any more questions, let's go to Chang'an quickly."

"Besides, when you go to Chang'an, you only need to find Daoist Dong Xiao to find Zhong Kui."

Hearing this, Nine Heavens Demon Patriarch smiled disapprovingly.

"The little god complies!"

Regarding this, Yuebo Tianjun didn't ask anymore, but just took orders to leave the hall.

Afterwards, in Xuanqi Yuxu Upper Realm Heaven, he took these treasures, drove a fairy cloud, and went to the human world.

……

……

That night.

The palace, in the imperial study.

Almost two hours had passed since Emperor Tang reviewed the memorial.

The third watch has passed, and it will be the fourth watch soon.

Speaking of which, he was also a little sleepy.

But looking outside the door, Han Xiangzi hasn't shown up for a long time, and he doesn't know what's going on in the bedroom?
When he was about to ask someone to help him see it.

In the imperial study room, someone came in in a panic and said:
"Report...report!"

"Your Majesty, Daoist Dong Xiao has captured a big red-robed ghost, and he is now walking towards the imperial study."

"It's just that the big red-robed ghost is really ugly, and he didn't want to let him in for fear of disturbing the holy car, but he couldn't twist the real Dongxiao, so the little one had to come forward and report."

The voice fell.

Tang Huang's face changed:
"what?!"

"You said Master Dongxiao captured a big red-robed ghost?"

Immediately, his eyes lit up, and he said excitedly:

"Quick, let him in, I want to see what that ghost looks like, is it really as scary as you said?"

Talk about ghosts has existed since ancient times.

Although the Emperor Tang was said to be the king of a country, he was unavoidably vulgar.

At present, the Tang Dynasty has a vast territory, the four barbarians serve as guests, and all nations come to court.

Every year, a lot of rare things are tributed.

He thinks he has a broad vision, but he has never seen a fairy Buddha.

Now, it was hard to see a ghost, Tang Huang naturally wanted to see one or two.

"Master Dong Xiao, here we come!"

The eunuch hadn't left the house yet, when the announcement sounded outside the door.

The voice fell.

Han Xiangzi and Zhong Kui walked into the imperial study.

"Ghost... ghost!"

The eunuch who came to report saw Zhong Kui's iron face and curly beard, leopard head and eyes around him, and came screaming in fright.

Tang Huang was quite calm at first, but after the eunuch yelled like that, he was also taken aback.

"go out!"

Regarding this, Emperor Tang's face darkened, and he waved to the eunuch.

Say it.

Without Emperor Tang's orders, the eunuch would just fuck off and run out.

Until then, the Emperor Tang saw Zhong Kui's true face.

To be honest, the first time Tang Huang saw Zhong Kui, even though he was prepared, his expression changed slightly with shock, and his heart was beating even more.

However, after a while, his expression changed as usual.

"Master Dong Xiao, is it this ghost who has been disturbing my peace for days?"

Tang Huang asked Han Xiangzi.

"No!"

"The ghost that disturbs His Majesty is a little ghost with an indigo face. It is called the ghost of wasting. It has crimson clothes and a small nose. It has one foot and one foot."

Han Xiangzi shook his head and explained.

"Where is that wasteful ghost?"

Tang Huang asked again.

"Your Majesty, Brother Zhong Kui swallowed that wasting ghost," Han Xiangzi said.

"Swallow... Swallow?!"

Tang Huang was shocked, and looked at the big red-robed ghost under the case in disbelief.

Unexpectedly, the big red-robed ghost in front of him has such abilities?
Delicious swallow kid!
"By the way, Daoist Dong Xiao hasn't told me yet, what is the origin of this big red-robed ghost beside you?"

During the conversation, Emperor Tang asked about the origin of Zhong Kui.

"On this point, it's better for Brother Zhong Kui to say it himself."

Han Xiangzi smiled and said to Zhong Kui beside him.

"Your Majesty Qizuo, my surname is Zhong and Mingkui, and I belong to Zhongnan Mountain. I was originally the No. [-] scholar in the palace examination, but because of my ugly appearance, I was impeached by the courtiers. They wanted to cut me off as the No. [-] scholar. die."

"After death, the ghosts wandered around the world before they were collected from the underworld, and learned some skills to catch ghosts."

Zhong Kui knelt down and said.

"Oh, you are the number one scholar in the imperial examination?!"

"What year?"

Knowing that Zhong Kui still has the status of the number one scholar, the Emperor Tang couldn't help being stunned, and asked in amazement.

"Seven years since the beginning of Tang Dynasty."

Zhong Kui said.

"It's been seven years since the beginning of Tang Dynasty, almost 20 years ago."

"I think it was when the first emperor was in power that you were the number one scholar."

Hearing this, the Tang Emperor said thoughtfully.
