    Chapter 70 The Pen of Merit...

    Zhao Yunlan calmly read the note, his cold expression softened slightly, and then he folded it carefully and put it into his wallet, as if he just received a love letter.

    Chu Shuzhi glanced at him, stood up and was about to leave, who knew that before he had time to turn around, three soul-suppressing orders flew out of Zhao Yunlan's hands at the same time, bringing out a large string of sparks, which flew straight into the air , At this time Guo Changcheng had not had time to get up from the ground, and the soul-suppressing order had been burned into a ball, like a shackle, hitting Chu Shuzhi straight.

    A strong force forced Chu Shuzhi back to the chair, and he couldn't move.

    The contract between Chu Shuzhi and Zhenhunling has not been resolved. Even if he has great ability, he will still be bound by this at this time.

    Zhao Yunlan glanced at him, took out a recording pen from the drawer, and chose to play it back. It was exactly what Chu Shuzhi said at the end, "I hope everyone who has children will be optimistic in the future. It's good to become a little ghost when the soul is gone."

    Coming out of the machine, the man's voice became more and more cold and terrifying, with some kind of hoarseness scratching on the bones.

    "Do you think you speak human words?" Zhao Yunlan asked blankly.

    Chu Shuzhi's eyes flashed, but the next moment, he turned his head stubbornly, and said stubbornly, "I am not a human at all."

    Guo Changcheng said nonchalantly, "Chu, Brother Chu, don't be angry."

    Chu Shuzhi glanced at him coldly and said nothing.

    Guo Great Wall hesitated for a long time, then carefully leaned over, gently tugged at the corner of his clothes, and buzzed like a mosquito: "I, I think you definitely, definitely don't think so, although I don't understand it very well. , but Brother Chu is a good person and won't do bad things for no reason..."

    Zhao Yunlan snorted, leaned heavily on the back of the seat, tapped the lighter on the table twice, raised his hand to light the cigarette, turned his eyes to Chu Shuzhi, and said angrily, "You still I don't understand what it means to have a grievance and a debt, and what a yard is a yard, and if you're in a hurry, you'll be ruthless. It's not as sensible as Xiao Guo, a little broken child, and I'll blush for you."

    Chu Shuzhi's dark eyes stared at him.

    "What are you looking at, it's not ashamed, I don't have time to deal with you right now - Xiao Guo, push him to my office, lock the door and let me watch him, there is a lounge, there is a single room, you If you are tired, you can lie down."

    Guo Great Wall immediately asked kindly, "What about Brother Chu?"

    "He?" Zhao Yunlan glanced at Chu Shu one sideways, "Let him sit, just in time for meditation practice, give me a good sleep."

    He picked up the teacup, shook the cold tea root inside, and said again, "I want to slap you in the face," in frustration.

    Guo Changcheng pushed up the swivel chair that Chu Shuzhi was sitting on, and when he reached the office door, he couldn't help but look back at Zhao Yunlan, and when he saw the leader wave at him, he pushed Chu Shuzhi all the way to the director's office. Close the door gently from the inside.

    Zhao Yunlan put his two long legs on the table and put the book on his knees, frowning and flipping through it.

    The legends about Nuwa are very scattered and can be found everywhere. The book in his hand is called "Ancient Secrets", which specifically lists the chapter "Feng's Nuwa", which is probably written by a senior who cultivated after the Song Dynasty. Yes, the author is unknown, the original version is ominous, this is an audio-visual version published after the founding of the People's Republic of China.

    At the beginning, the record about Nuwa's creation in the "Taiping Yulan" is quoted: "It is said that the heaven and the earth were created without people. people."

    Later, the author added a small note: "Humans, head, face, and five senses, are all in the state of Emperor Xiao Wa, able to speak well, free from the mud, the wind ignites their three fires, and the turbid earth gives birth to their three corpses, immortal and indestructible, spiritual and intelligent. Impurity. From baby to old age, life and death, Emperor Wa took pity on him, and because of his marriage, he became a female matchmaker, making it uninterrupted for hundreds of generations."

    Zhao Yunlan found a black water pen on the desk, and smashed one under "the wind ignites the three fires, and the muddy earth produces the three corpses", and then the tip of the pen paused and turned down again, until the "Fixing". day" section.

    "The Master of Huainan says: In ancient times, the four poles were abolished, the nine states were split, the sky was not covered, the earth was not contained, the flames were not extinguished, the waters were vast and oceans were endless, the people were eaten fiercely, and the birds of prey seized the old. Weak. So Nuwa smelted five-colored stones to fill the sky, slashed turtles to set up the four poles, killed black dragons to save Jizhou, and accumulated reed ash to stop the water. The sky was filled, the four poles were positive; , Zhuan Minsheng."

    The following is still a comment: "The old turtle is enough to offer, and the emperor Wa felt his great virtue and gave all the brocade clothes as fins. Sizhu Town is in four directions, the northwest sky is tilted, and Kunlun seals the character, saying: The stone that is not old and degenerate is cold and frozen. The water, the body that has not been born or died, the soul that has not been scorched. These are all things that cannot be achieved, and they are sealed as unreachable places, thinking that the four saints, if the sky does not fall, and the earth does not sink, then the four saints will not escape. The world is safe."

    Zhao Yunlan followed Daqing's hair for a while, and said softly: "It says that the six impureness of a person comes from the soil embryo, and then Nuwa used the old turtle's feet to support the Tianzhu to mend the sky, and Kunlun gave this to him. The four pillars have sealed the word - how does the mountain speak, the 'Kunlun' here should refer to the Kunlun Lord - and I have heard this sentence before."

    Daqing: "Where?"

    "At the foot of the mountains and rivers." Zhao Yunlan said, "If the 'impossible things' refer to the Four Sages, does that mean that if you get the Four Sages and realize these 'impossible' things, you can reach the Four Sages? Under the big Tianzhu?"

    Daqing circled around his hand and muttered, "It's all messed up, it's making my head dizzy."

    Zhao Yunlan ignored it, he seemed to be just talking to himself to sort out his thoughts: "The five-colored stone fills the sky, then if I guess correctly, the four pillars are likely to be used to control the 'ground', and this 'ground' should be made of The 'land' in the human era...it makes sense, no wonder the ghost-faced man must obtain the Four Saints, and if he obtains the Four Saints, he can find a way to destroy the Four Pillars."

    Zhao Yunlan touched the small fish gān, and his fingers smelled of fried fish gān. Although Daqing didn't want to look so cheap, he just couldn't resist his instinct. That smell, while asking: "Who is the ghost face you are talking about?"

    Zhao Yunlan briefly and simply told Daqing what happened to Shanhe Cone. After he finished speaking, his expression became solemn: "Ghost face wears a mask, but I can probably guess what he looks like."

    Daqing: "Could it be..."

    "I'm afraid it's not inseparable from Shen Wei's appearance." Zhao Yunlan sighed softly, "He has a very serious mind and is good to everyone, but he doesn't want to let him go, and he doesn't know. Why is he so angry with me, I'm really worried about him..."

    Daqing raised his head: "What?"

    Zhao Yunlan lowered his eyes slightly and paired with the black cat. Suddenly, he put his feet on the table, sat down, and said in a low voice, "Someone is here."

    As soon as the words fell, a bang sounded from a distance, getting closer and closer, the strong air-conditioning became clearer and clearer, the northwest wind shook the window lattice, Zhao Yunlan calmly took out a small handful from the drawer The incense was lit, and inserted into the flower pot on the desk. He took out a porcelain pot from under the table, took out a bundle of coin and paper money, lit it and threw it in. In the rising smoke, he put the book Put it away, go back and pour yourself a cup of hot tea.

    This time, the yīn who came here has learned to behave badly. He stood still a long way from the door, and said in a loud voice, "The uninvited guest is walking in the ghostly world to ask the Lord of the Soul-suppressing Commander. Can the Lord take the time to appreciate his face?"

    Zhao Yunlan eased his sullen expression and cleared his throat: "Please."

    The door of the Criminal Investigation Division's office was pushed open with a squeak. As soon as the door was opened, the other party could smell the smell of incense and paper money all over the house. Money can make a ghost grind the mill. Sure enough, the person who came here calmed down and didn't speak. But he laughed first, and hurriedly bowed and said, "I'm so polite, Master. It's too polite."

    Zhao Yunlan was stunned when he saw the person coming. After a while, he stood up and said in surprise, "What kind of wind brought Lord Judge to Chuī?"

    The judge still had a genial look. He didn't look like a ghost with a laugh, but like an old man of the moon who scattered money and made good fortune.

    After he came in, he first chatted with Zhao Yunlan's three aunts and six grandmothers for a long time, and then the two of them sat down opposite each other politely and each with their own ghosts. Daqing jumped into Zhao Yunlan's arms, his tail hooked his wrist, and he didn't say a word. His eyes stared at the judge coldly, as if in a protective gesture.

    Only then did the judge become serious: "The little old man goes to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, and he came to disturb him in the middle of the night. There is really one thing. I ask the Lord to see the overall situation of the common people and help me."

    "Don't," Zhao Yunlan waved his hand hurriedly, "Don't put on a high hat for me, I'm a mortal mortal, and I can do tricks. Thank you all for treating me like a green onion, but I don't dare to take it for myself. Garlic. You are so polite, I can't find Bei, if you have anything, just ask, and if you can help me, I will try my best to help."

    The judge sat there by himself, sighing for a long time, trying to lead Zhao Yunlan to ask, but Zhao Yunlan seemed to be unable to understand the face of a person, drinking tea silently on the side, completely ignoring his tricks, after a while, the judge Finally, he couldn't hold it any longer and asked, "This evening, should the Lord have noticed the warning from the Raven Clan?"

    Zhao Yunlan looked inexplicable: "No, I watched a replay of the chūn festival party at my mother's this afternoon, and I really didn't pay attention."

    Judge: "..."

    Zhao Yunlan asked innocently, "What happened to the crow?"

    The judge knew that Zhao Yunlan was pretending to be confused, and he was the first one who was unwilling to talk to the main character of this soul-suppressing order. First, the judge was one of the few people who knew the ins and outs of Zhao Yunlan, and neither wanted nor dared to offend this great god. Second, the great god is shameless, jian is slick, and he is good at three axes in his life - rogue, tai chi, avoid the important ones - whichever one you pick out is enough for others to drink a pot.

    "Crows report their sorrows but not good things. There is never a good thing. Black clouds rise from the northwest. Some people are not afraid of thunder and lightning.

    Zhao Yunlan was stunned for a moment, then blurted out, "All creatures? The earth is about to explode, can he move it?"

    Judge: "..."

    Zhao Yunlan smiled: "I'm really confused, you have to explain to me, who ran to the top of the snow-capped mountain on the Qinghai-Tibet line, put something up, and what's the purpose?"

    The judge took out a wanted order from his sleeve, Zhao Yunlan glanced at it, and an acquaintance—Ghost Face.

    "This person is the king of monsters born in the most filthy places. It's a long story. He was sealed by the goddess Nuwa under the Qianzhang Huáng Spring during the great war between gods and demons. The seal is loosening day by day, so that it can get out of trouble. The Lord is an understanding person, I won't go around with you, to tell the truth - he is now very much sealed by the Goddess of Nuwa seal, and we still have the strength to fight together. He got out of trouble..."

    Zhao Yunlan listened to his half-truth nonsense, and the corner of his mouth couldn't help but raise a little, and he didn't answer the judge's worried stubbornness, but just pretended not to understand and asked: "Yo, this is serious, it was sealed by Nuwa. It's not the same as the usual monsters, right? Which one is more powerful?"

    Judge: "..."

    Zhao Yunlan continued to ask enthusiastically, "Then why does he want the souls of so many people?"

    The judge took a deep breath and said, "His purpose is to create a pen of merit and virtue, and each person carries a spirit to write down the merits, demerits and demerits of the past and this life. The red words are the merits, and the black words are the demerits. Take it out and gather at the top of Kunlun Mountain, and the merit pen will naturally follow. We must never let him get the merit pen, otherwise..."

    Zhao Yunlan suddenly interrupted him: "A while ago, there was a crow clan little demon who led me over with something that looked like a merit pen, and also hurt my eyes, so I still have two or five eyes, and I see double images. Looking at the judge, you feel that you have gained eight pounds of puffiness, so, dare to say that the merit pen he said is fake, is 'someone' deliberately trying to trouble me?"

    The judge's heart jumped fiercely, and he was blocked by his voice. When he looked up, he just met Zhao Yunlan's incapable of joking eyes, and immediately complained for a while - the crows eat carrion for a living, and they have always suffered from it. Underworld coercion, send a crow out, others don't need to think to know who ordered it, and they don't know which idiot came up with the bad idea.

    The judge's mind changed rapidly, and his sweat was about to fall.

    "The Four Sages have been living in the world for so many years, and I haven't paid attention to such a stupid thing, and I haven't said to look for it or accept it. Now something has happened, so I came to tell me that this thing is serious. Doesn't that make sense?"

    The judge smiled reluctantly: "This... it's true that we didn't think carefully..."

    "Isn't it thoughtful?" Zhao Yunlan raised his eyebrows, "Why do I feel that I have something to rely on?"

    The judge is on pins and needles.

    Zhao Yunlan reached out and knocked on the table, lowered his face, and suppressed his smile: "Sir, we have been working together for many years. Open the skylight and say something bright. What do you want? What do you want me to do?"

    The judge cupped his hands and said, "Xiaguan urges the Lord to lead us to Kunlun and break his formation."

    Zhao Yunlan's face was light: "What are you talking about? I'm a dead house, not an ALICE friend. I haven't even been to Fragrant Mountain. I don't know which way the Kunlun Mountain Gate is open. Would you let me lead the way?"

    His reaction was finally expected by the judge, and the judge hurriedly said the prepared excuses, and even the words slipped a lot: "Ling Lord may not know, the real body of the soul-suppressing order in your hand is a piece of wood, which is exactly the same. The great sacred tree from Kunlun Mountain, which was planted by Pangu, has the same longevity as heaven and earth. The top of Kunlun Mountain has always been a forbidden place for gods, and only this thing can be used as a pass.”

    Zhao Yunlan stretched out his hand and clicked on the photo on the wanted list: "Then... how can the 'Demon King' get in? Does he have a special back door, is Pangu's brother-in-law?"

    "Don't dare to blaspheme the saint like this," the judge said with sincerity and fear, "Tell the Lord, this monster was born under the Huáng Spring, next to the ancient tree of merit and virtue. The ancient tree of merit and virtue and the sacred tree of Kunlun Mountain were originally a twin, and he also has some origins with Kunlun. ,so……"

    Zhao Yunlan said with a half-smile, "Is it also related to that tree when you go to the top of Kunlun Mountain to summon the merit pen?"

    The judge didn't know what he meant, so he didn't dare to answer casually.

    Zhao Yunlan said carelessly: "Huáng Quanxia...Hey, why do I think it's so close to the mansion of Lord Soul Slayer?"

    Hearing this, the judge deliberately showed a hesitant expression on his face, and then said vaguely, "You can say the same."

    "Oh," Zhao Yunlan's smile deepened, but his eyes were extraordinarily cold, "So the judge was implying me that the Soul Cutter has a lot to do with monsters."

    The judge didn't know if he was really 250 or intentional, but he even said these words that should have been tacitly understood. He hesitantly looked up at Zhao Yunlan's expression, but could not see any clues.

    Hei Piben had been left to him, did he know that Shen Wei was the Soul Slayer?

    The last time Yin came to report, it was said that blindness didn't prevent him from hanging out with a little lover, so maybe... don't you know? Otherwise, how could the Soul Cleaver tolerate it...

    The judge made up his mind, stretched out his hand and stroked his beard, and smiled covertly: "How dare the villain talk about the short and long of the immortal behind his back? It makes the Lord laugh."

    Zhao Yunlan looked at him, and reached out to touch his waist: "You want a soul-suppressing order, right, wait for me to find it for you."

    The judge waved his hand hurriedly: "No, no, Shenmu's soul-soothing makes us dare to move? We have to ask the Lord to personally go to Kunlun with us."

    Zhao Yunlan's movements stopped, and he looked at the judge with an inexplicable meaning. His eyes were black and bright, indescribably sharp and piercing.
