Liaozhai: I just want salted fish with invincible magical powers

Chapter 165
In the blink of an eye, it is June, and the weather is getting hotter.

The mountains and flowers outside the city are in full bloom, which is also a good time to travel.

After Hu Qian agreed to Rong Ning'er to go out and play, he chose a free day and took Xue Ningshuang and Rong Ning'er to the suburbs.

Although the matter of Ma Shoubing has been pardoned by the emperor, the two sisters did not want to cause trouble for Hu Qian, so they did not even accompany Yingcai.

There is not only Lanruo Temple in the suburbs of Guobei County, but also many places of interest.

Walking along the mountain path, I saw red flowers and green leaves blooming just right, and in the depths of the forest, I occasionally saw animals such as hares and deer, so happy that Rong Ning'er immediately chased them.

In broad daylight, Hu Qian was not afraid of anything happening to her, so he and Xue Ningshuang walked slowly behind.

After a good swim, Xue Ningshuang felt extremely at ease, and asked, "Sir, do you still remember the lantern festival in Jinling?"

Hu Qian held her in his arms and pinched her nose affectionately, "Of course I remember."

Xue Ningshuang looked satisfied, "At that time, Xianggong's song "Sapphire Case·Yuanxi" really shocked me, but I was young and energetic at that time, so I still didn't accept it on the surface.

Thinking about it now, it was really naive. "

Hu Qian caressed her hair, "What does that matter, don't you call yourself a young man with arrogance?"

Xue Ningshuang said: "Although Xianggong's words are straightforward, they are not without reason.

Taking advantage of the beautiful scenery now, how about reciting a poem? "

Hu Qian said: "Now? Mr. Xiang has been busy with official duties recently, and the poems and books are completely wasted. Why don't we talk about it later."

"Where is the interest in the future, okay?"

Hu Qian nodded, "It's rare that you have such an elegant mood, so my husband would give up his life to accompany the gentleman."

Xue Ningshuang quickly covered his mouth, feigning anger and said: "Don't dare to talk nonsense, I have only had a comfortable life these days, my husband must not say such unlucky words.

The concubine is really unacceptable. "

Hu Qian held her face in his hands, stared straight at her and said, "Where did you get the word 'shushuang' from?"

Xue Ningshuang said: "But this is how it is..."

Hu Qian deliberately made fun of it, and asked again: "What is this matter?"

Xue Ningshuang said: "Sister, don't pretend to be confused, of course it is that."

As she said that, she blushed suddenly and said: "I only found out that night, and it turned out that the one was so comfortable.

No wonder the book says that many widows cannot stand loneliness.

In the past, the concubine didn't know it, but it was just that they didn't obey women's morals. Now that I think about it, once I know the taste, it's really unbearable. "

Hu Qian said: "Are you talking about the time in the carriage? I really didn't expect you to be so bold."

Xue Ningshuang was taken aback, "In the carriage?"

Then she realized that it was the time when Rong Ning'er deliberately took revenge on herself, so she nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, that's the time."

Hu Qian said with a smile: "If Ning'er finds out about it, I'm afraid she will learn a lot."

Xue Ningshuang had an idea, "Why don't we use the topic of boudoir pleasure?"

Hu Qian nodded, "Well, how about asking the lady to come first?"

Xue Ningshuang said: "That concubine is making a fool of herself."

After saying that, he pondered for a while, and said:

"Purple, purple and red make a scene,

How many springs can life meet.

Teenagers don't do private things,
I'm afraid that the spring breeze will also laugh at people. "

After reading it, she blushed and smiled before Hu Qian could comment.

Hu Qian said: "My lady is right.

Teenagers don't do private things,
I'm afraid that the spring breeze will also laugh at people.

The sun is shining today, which is a very good time. Should we find some love affairs to do? "

Xue Ningshuang blushed, looked around and said, "Here?
How to make it here? "

Hu Qian nodded, "If I knew it earlier, I should have brought a piece of cloth out and spread it on the ground, or I could have a rest, or I could have some private affairs."

When he was sighing, Xue Ningshuang suddenly heard Xue Ningshuang say in a low voice: "If Mr. Xianggong is willing, the robe on his body can also..."

Hu Qian paused, and when he looked up, he saw her standing there with lowered eyebrows, with a slight red cloud on her face, as if she was waiting for something.

If Hu Qian couldn't understand her intention like this, it would be a failure.

He immediately hugged her in his arms, and with a little force, he hugged her horizontally, found a place with dense camellias, stopped, untied the robe on his body, spread it on the ground, and put her on the ground. on top.

At this moment, her eyes were closed tightly, her eyelashes were twitching, and her red lips trembled slightly, as if she knew what was going to happen next.

When emotional, quickly cover your eyes.

Hu Qian went to untie her belt with both hands, but found that it was tied like a butterfly wearing a flower, which was extremely difficult to untie.

She tried to close her eyes, but couldn't help but look.

Seeing that Hu Qian couldn't untie his robe belt, he immediately reached out to untie it.

Naturally, Hu Qian would not foolishly wait for the atmosphere to freeze, and leaned over, kissed her red lips, and moved his hands honestly.

At this moment, her heart trembled suddenly, she hurriedly pushed Hu Qian away, and said softly: "Sir, I feel a little uncomfortable..."

Hu Qian said: "What's wrong?"

She shook her head, "It's not me, it's telepathy, it seems to be Ning'er..."

Just as he was talking, he suddenly heard Rong Ning'er's shout from a distance.

Hu Qian quickly pulled Xue Ningshuang up, didn't bother to say more, just carried her on his back, and ran towards the sound.

After Yueshi climbed the rock, Hu Qian went to where Rong Ning'er was.

I saw that she was standing on a big rock surrounded by dense bushes.

Hu Qian jumped onto the boulder with Xue Ningshuang on his back, slowly put Xue Ningshuang down, and asked with concern: "Ning'er, are you okay?"

After speaking, he took a closer look at Rong Ning'er's body, seeing that she was fine, he was slightly relieved.

Xue Ningshuang said: "Ning'er, are you bullying my sister again?"

The two of them had already chanted poems before, and when they were about to accomplish their good deeds, they were interrupted by Rong Ning'er at a critical moment. Xue Ningshuang wondered if it was Rong Ning'er's prank again.

Rong Ning'er shook her head and said, "Master, sister, did you hear anything?"

Hu Qian listened carefully for a while, but there was nothing.

Xue Ningshuang also shook her head, indicating that she didn't hear anything.

Rong Ning'er said: "Listen carefully, is there someone singing..."

Hu Qian listened carefully for a while, but still heard nothing.

It's just that after looking at it for a long time, I feel that the lush forest in front of me has lost its original vitality and liveliness, and is more like a pool of stagnant water.

It's frighteningly green and frighteningly quiet.

In the quiet and solemn woods, suddenly there was a low voice of singing.

After hearing this, Hu Qian nodded, "Someone is indeed singing, but what is it singing? I don't think I've heard it before."

Xue Ningshuang was very knowledgeable since she was a child, and when she heard it, she was surprised and said: "This is a song in the old dynasty, it seems to be called Jiuziwang Country Song."

Hu Qian said, "Do you even know this?"

Xue Ningshuang said: "I saw it in a book before. The tone and lyrics are very similar to this, so I can't be sure."

Rong Ning'er said anxiously: "No, no, there is the sound of wild beasts roaring in the song, didn't you hear it?"

Hu Qian frowned, and when he listened again, he heard a faint roar.

Xue Ningshuang also nodded and said: "Really, there is really the sound of a wild beast roaring in it!"

As she said that, she looked around, and then hid behind Hu Qian, "Could it be that there are some wild animals around here?"

Rong Ning'er said: "Really! When I was chasing the roe here just now, I suddenly saw a thing full of patterns running past the bushes.

The concubine was startled, and then she yelled. "

Hu Qian stopped the two of them behind him, threw out the Longyuan sword in his sleeve, and said with a smile: "Don't be afraid, with me here, no matter what kind of monsters and monsters he has, he will definitely not be able to hurt you."

Rong Ning'er thought of Hu Qian's supernatural powers and abilities, and immediately nodded, "With Mr. Xiang, there is no need to be afraid, but what is that thing, does Mr. Xiang know?"

Hu Qian scanned it with magical powers, but didn't see anything weird.

So he shook his head and said: "There is nothing abnormal everywhere, it should not be a ghost, maybe it's just a wild beast."

Xue Ningshuang nodded and said, "In that case, let's go back."

The three of them were about to leave when the singing changed suddenly, and suddenly there was a roar of a tiger, which resounded through the forest.

With the sword in front of him, Hu Qian asked strangely, "Tiger?"

Xue Ningshuang and Rong Ning'er were so frightened that they immediately hid behind Hu Qian.

Immediately afterwards, there was another roar of a tiger, which shook the leaves in front of them uncontrollably.

Hu Qian smiled and said, "Stop yelling! If you are really capable, just come out!"

The roar of the tiger disappeared immediately.

Not long after, there was a sound of piercing through the forest and beating leaves, and there seemed to be something walking towards this side in the bushes.

Hu Qian frowned.

Obviously, I saw the leaves shaking, but I couldn't see any ghosts.

Isn't it a ghost?
But if it wasn't for ghosts, why would they be able to sing and roar like tigers?

It seems that he can understand human speech.

When I was thinking about it, the thing had already arrived behind a bush ten feet away.

Hearing the sound of "click" a branch snapped, the bushes stopped shaking.

that thing...

Standing in the bushes ten feet away.

I don't know if it's an enemy or a friend...

Hu Qian clenched the Longyuan sword tightly. From such a short distance, as long as he hits it with the sword, not to mention that thing, even the bushes and boulders will be cut open.

Just as he was hesitating whether to do it immediately, the singing sound came to mind again.

It's just that this time it's much clearer—it's in the bushes in front of us!
Among the singing, there were a few clear roars of tigers.

Only this time it was much gentler.

Just as Hu Qian was about to ask, a human voice suddenly came from Empress Lin.

"But Huzhi County face to face?"

Hu Qian was taken aback.

people? !

But after thinking about it, I realized that things were by no means that simple.

Then he responded and said, "It's my servant, may I ask your Excellency?"

"I'm Xu Fengnian."

Hu Qian was taken aback, "Xu Fengnian, governor of the cloud?"

The voice said: "It's right here."

Hu Qian couldn't believe it, "So, are you a ghost?"

"Yes, but not quite."

"What exactly does that mean?"

"It's a long story. More than 100 years ago, when I was the governor of the cloud..."

Hu Qian said: "Let's make a long story short."

There was a silence in the bush.

Then there was singing again.

After waiting for a while, Xu Fengnian said again: "Forgive me, magistrate, I have been hit by this spell. Although I can speak, I have to sing a song first every time I say a few words, otherwise what I say is not human. It's a tiger roaring."

After finishing speaking, he sang a few more lines before opening his mouth again: "Forgive me, my lord. I really want to ask your lord for a favor when I visit you today."

Hu Qian said: "Let's talk about it.

Xu Fengnian said: "I beg my lord to release the spell for me, and help me regain my freedom."

Hu Qian smiled and said, "Why do you think I can undo your spell?"

Xu Fengnian said: "In addition to the drought in Xia's tomb, my lord also blesses the safety of Guobei County. Doesn't that explain the problem?"

Hu Qian nodded and said: "If you have any grievances, just say it. As for the matter of dispelling the spell...I have to listen to it before making a decision."

Xu Fengnian said: "100 years ago, when I came to Yunzhong to take office, there was a scholar here named Chen Zhibang, who was very famous, and I met him right away, but after less than a month, I fell ill.

At first it was just grumpy, and then it slowly became frantic and screaming.

I usually like food, wine and tea very much. I don't want to eat more than one bite, but I want to eat when I see people.

Within a few days, I turned into a colorful tiger.

After eating the maidservants around him, everyone shouted and beat them. In desperation, they had no choice but to escape and hide in the mountains.

I thought there was no hope in this life, but I didn't expect to hear from a passer-by that day that the Magistrate not only can cast down demons and catch ghosts, but also has the ability to seek good fortune and avoid evil.

So I came here to ask the magistrate, and I hope that the magistrate will save me next time.

Even if he is a cow or a horse in this life and the next life, he will definitely repay the kindness of the adults. "

Hu Qian said: "You were turned into a tiger by magic?"

"Yes."

"How is this determined?"

"I've been thinking about what happened that day every day for the next few years. Apart from him, there is absolutely no one else."

Hu Qian said: "Since you have become like this, and a hundred years have passed, even if the spell is lifted, the previous relatives and friends are basically gone, so what's the point?"

"Well, speaking of it, I had a family before I came down, and I have a son, and I don't know how he is doing now, if I can change back into a human form, I can go to him.

Even if you can't find it, let it be a wish, even if you die immediately afterwards, there is no regret. "

Hu Qian shook his head secretly.

If there was a son at that time, he would be more than 100 years old now. At this age, he would have died long ago.

Thinking about it again, the shopkeeper Xu claimed to be a descendant of Xu Fengnian before, but he couldn't be sure whether what he said was true or not.

At this moment, Rong Ning'er, who had been silent all this time, said, "Master, if you can help, please help him."

Xue Ningshuang didn't know if she thought of her parents, and slowly shed tears.

"Sanggong, Governor Xu is so sad, let's help him find a way."

Hu Qian pondered for a moment.

Although he has the supernatural power of talisman water, it stands to reason that no matter what kind of talisman he can draw.

But the key is that I don't know what kind of spell it is. If it can be dispelled with a spell, what kind of talisman paper should I use?

Just as I was thinking, I suddenly thought of Zen Master Liufa and Master Tongfa, the abbot of Mingxin Temple. If I ask them, maybe there is something I can do.

So he nodded and said, "I can promise you, but it's just a try, you understand?"

Xu Fengnian said: "Don't worry, my lord, regardless of success or failure, I will not complain."

Hu Qian nodded, and was about to leave when he suddenly turned around and asked, "After talking for a while, come out and let me have a look."

"Alright, I'm just afraid of shocking my lord."

"It's okay, just come out."

"My lord, wait a moment, I will come here."
