    Chapter 86 Soul Lighting...

    Chu Shuzhi did not expect that the first person he met when he returned to Longcheng was Guo Changcheng.

    He just got rid of the shackles and took back the things he had taken away from the underworld. He was in a good mood, so he took advantage of the chūn festival holiday and found a mass grave in the wild grave slope, and went into seclusion for a few days. After Wang Zheng's email saying that Zhu Hong planned to resign, he hurriedly booked a station ticket to take the train back to Longcheng.

    The train station was bustling with people, Chu Shuzhi walked forward for a while, looking around to find a taxi, he saw Guo Changcheng's familiar figure - the young man was carrying a huge woven bag, his body almost bent into a full stop, It was slowly wriggling with difficulty.

    At first glance, Guo Changcheng didn't do much physical work, and his sports performance was probably limited when he was in school. Look at this young man.

    One of Chu Shu was afraid of acknowledging the wrong person. He took a second glance and watched helplessly as the sturdy nylon bag fell out of a small gap. An aunt who was selling boiled corn on the roadside was kind. He opened his mouth to remind: "Hey, boy, your bag is about to leak!"

    Guo Changcheng turned his head in response, but it was probably because the thing was too heavy. When he turned sideways, he didn't pay attention to the bottom of his feet, and happened to stumble on the towbar of a passing girl. Guo Changcheng was in a hurry, and before he could apologize, he was caught by the girl next to him. The young man pushed aggressively: "Look at it, where should you step?"

    Guo Great Wall was already standing unsteadily, staggered under his feet, and the "city wall" behind him collapsed with a bang. The bottom part of the nylon woven bag fell apart, and a bunch of incredible things fell out, including pots and pans. The basin, the food and clothing in other small plastic bags, and the strangest thing is that there is a large wooden chopping board about 60 centimeters in diameter and 8 centimeters thick - he almost carried a miniature Wal-Mart on his body.

    The young man who pushed him had probably just made his way through the crowded and crowded train station. He was irritable, frowning in disgust and making a "hiss" when he saw Guo Changcheng dressed in gray and old clothes. , regarded him as a migrant worker returning to the city, and suddenly felt an indescribable sense of superiority in disgust, pulling the girl next to him with one hand, and complaining bitterly: "I know there are so many people and so many things. , are you sick? Can you afford to step on someone's box?"

    Guo Great Wall kept apologizing, seeing something that fell to the ground, almost numb, he squatted down to pick it up, looked at the leaking nylon woven bag at both ends, scratched his hair at a loss, and felt worried.

    At this moment, a somewhat skinny hand reached out, and lightly tied the nylon bag at both ends, making it into the shape of a cloth pocket, and then pocketed the sundries in the bag in the middle and dropped it. , just like picking up a SpongeBob SquarePants, and pocketing these junk and dead things with one hand.

    Guo Great Wall: "Brother Chu!"

    If he needs a tail, he can shake it into an electric fan, and suddenly forget that the zombie corpse standing in front of him is the corpse king - in Guo Changcheng's view, Chu Shuzhi is simply a great savior who fell from the sky.

    Chu Shuzhi ignored him, holding a large nylon bag in one hand, and turning to the young man who hadn't gone far, he said with an unpleasant expression: "The one in front, I advise you to come back immediately and apologize."

    When Chu Shuzhi was normal, it was nothing, but when he lowered his face, it was especially scary, and he almost naturally carried the viciousness of a desperado. What are you thinking?"

    Just as Chu Shuzhi was about to walk towards him, Guo Great Wall grabbed him: "Brother Chu, Brother Chu, let's go, I didn't see it just now, I'm sorry."

    He raised his eyes awkwardly and smiled at the other party, holding Chu Shuzhi's cold hand: "My fault, my fault."

    The two people in front walked away cursing, completely unaware that they had just escaped a crisis.

    Chu Shuzhi turned his head and rolled his eyes at Guo Changcheng, thinking that not only was the Virgin ill, but his brain was abnormal. personal.

    Chu Shuzhi broke away his hand angrily, and pointed to the grocery bag in his hand: "Your family can't open the pot, so you can sell groceries for the New Year?"

    "No, I sent it to someone, but I didn't expect the bag to break suddenly." Guo Changcheng followed him, feeling embarrassed, "I, I, carry it for me, it's not too far."

    Chu Shuzhi avoided his claws impatiently and frowned: "Lead the way."

    Guo Great Wall immediately did not dare to speak, and ran in front of him in small steps to lead the way.

    Passing through Zhanqian Street, walked into a small alley, and came to the light and shadow area of ​​the bustling city. There was a row of dilapidated small bungalows in the alley. Going to the innermost, a female student with a ponytail was at the door. Sweeping the floor with a broom, she saw Guo Great Wall and greeted her very happily, revealing a college holiday volunteer sign on her neck.

    Guo Changcheng was a little embarrassed to see the girl, he lowered his head unnaturally, and buzzed like a mosquito: "Hello."

    The little girl had eyesight and saw the big bag in Chu Shuzhi's hand, and immediately threw down the broom, opened the door for him, and asked Guo Great Wall as she walked, "Have you registered? Did you print it out? It's online. A circle of people thanked them."

    This kid Guo Changcheng is very sluggish and not smart. In the unit, he often gets angry with him and scolds him directly, but in the end, when he finishes, he is always very serious and meticulous, no matter how long the report is written, no matter how long it is. No matter how unimportant and wasteful paper is, there has never been a single typo. Slowly, even their critical leaders can't say anything.

    Guo Great Wall hurriedly nodded, and took out a dozen printed papers from his pocket. There were seven or eight pages in total, and it was a detailed record of who donated what, the donor's contact address, phone number, net name and email address, etc. , the donations vary from RMB to a piece of Chinese cabbage.

    It turned out that this was led by several colleges and universities in Longcheng, and took advantage of the winter vacation to unite with some social service organizations to launch a volunteer action called "Old My Old, Young My Young", Guo Changcheng and their side, specifically targeting the bottom of the city who lost their ability to live due to various reasons. The elderly, each small community is responsible for long-term care of a few fixed elderly.

    Because Guo Changcheng was not well-mannered, he could not undertake the work of helping the elderly and collecting donations from the society. Fortunately, there were many girls in the volunteer team, so he helped Gan with some physical work as much as he could, and took advantage of the holiday to become a porter. .

    Chu Shuzhi helped them put their things down, so he drove Guo Great Wall's car along the way and took him to No. 4 Guangming Road. Guo Great Wall's palm was torn by the nylon bag. He sat on the co-pilot and silently used it. Wet wipes.

    Chu Shuzhi was rarely in the mood to say a few more words to him: "You still care about everyone, do you want to save all sentient beings?"

    Guo Great Wall stared at him in surprise with a pair of ignorant eyes.

    Chu Shuzhi changed the question: "Does the family know about doing these things?"

    Guo Great Wall silently shook his head.

    Chu Shuzhi smiled incomprehensibly, and then said, "Then did you go to the first day of the first year to get incense? You are like this, it is easy to make a wish."

    Guo Changcheng shook his head again. He was extremely satisfied with his current life. Apart from his family and friends being safe and healthy, he really had nothing to ask fornow his family and friends seem to be safe and healthy. Bodhisattva looking for trouble is good.

    Chu Shuzhi took advantage of the traffic light and glanced at him. Guo Great Wall was neither tall, nor strong, nor handsome. His facial features were not good-looking. He was usually very low-key. The type that you can't find in the crowd, because you always lack self-confidence, so you can't talk about temperament.

    But when he sat down quietly and did not make a sound, his calm expression revealed some indescribable, natural Zen.

    Although Guo Changcheng was a mortal, he passed through his intestines every day, and he could not even figure out what cultivation was, and he could not fully recognize the words in the scriptures. The Bodhisattva Arhats all over the world only knew two of them through the popular TV series "Journey to the West": a Guanyin One Tathagata, because of the actor's problem, still has doubts about his gender.

    But Chu Shuzhi could feel that he was quietly repairing something without anyone else.

    Neither the blessings of this life, nor the merits of the next life.

    With Chu Shuzhi's eyesight and cultivation, he just had a vague feeling, but he couldn't tell what it was.

    Although Chu Shuzhi didn't understand how Guo Changcheng thought about doing these things, it didn't prevent him from suddenly feeling uncomfortable, seemed a little resentful, and seemed to be unjust.

    If nothing else, just the merits and virtues of a child's body three feet thick, shouldn't he live a peaceful and happy life? How could there be such a bad fate? Although everyone knows that it is very nonsense to discuss merits and demerits in the book of life and death, does the underworld need to be so blatant?

    He stopped talking, and Guo Changcheng, his brainless fan, didn't have the courage to take the initiative to raise the topic. The two walked silently all the way to No. 4 Guangming Road. The night had come, and the ghosts and people had arrived.

    One of Chu Shu entered the Criminal Investigation Department, and the first thing that caught his eye was a group of ghosts and monsters with empty eyes, as if they were collectively struck by lightning.

    Before he could open his mouth to ask what was going on, he saw Wang Zheng turn his head and asked tremblingly, "Brother Chu, do you know that Teacher Shen... Shen Wei, is it actually a matter of Soul Slayer?"

    Chu Shuzhi was stunned for a while, and after a while, he said calmly: "Oh, Zhao Yunlan, that brainless, why can't he come out? So what about others? He ran away when he got rid of it?"

    Daqing meowed and said, "He jumped into the Wangchuan water."

    Chu Shuzhi: "...Love hurt? Suicide?"

    Daqing and Zhu Hong have basically calmed down after the initial panic.

    Zhu Hong knew that Zhao Yunlan was carrying water dragon balls with him, and no place with water could hurt him. She just hung the water dragon ball on Zhao Yunlan's neck when she came out like this. Zhu Hong felt that if she was more careful, she would think that Uncle Snake knew something in advance.

    Zhu Hong said: "I guess he may be looking for Soul Cutter."

    Chu Shuzhi glanced at him and saw that except for Lin Jing, who was still out of town and agreed to take the midnight train back, the team at No. 4 Guangming Road had basically arrived. He put his hands in his pockets and went back Leaning on the door of the office: "I think so, let's talk about what everyone knows separately. It's been too messy recently. Let's focus on the information and study what is going on and what to do—"

    Speaking of this, Chu Shuzhi's voice suddenly stopped, and his face suddenly became a little bad, which made everyone else very nervous: "What did you think of Brother Chu?"

    "Wait, Shen Wei is the Soul Slayer?" Chu Shuzhi's face was green, and he murmured this sentence after a while, "Fuck you, I have molested him so many times before!"

    ...So sometimes the calm emperor is just a long anti-sheer arc.

    Zhao Yunlan had long since lost the concept of time and space, and he was also locked in a small dark room. Being in the Great Sacred Tree and in the Forgotten River were two completely different feelings.

    The unspeakable pressure in the darkness made the sun on both sides of him seem to be crowded together. Gradually, a nausea and fatigue similar to deep hypoglycemia filled his chest, which became more obvious as he went down. He didn't even dare to move his head, he felt that he would faint with a slight shake of his head, his heart seemed to be jumping out of his chest, and the sound of the beating arteries in his ears began to be so intense that it was unbearable.

    At this moment, Zhao Yunlan saw a little light.

    That light was weaker than a firefly, but it was a torture for eyes that were accustomed to darkness. He stretched out his hand to cover his eyes, and couldn't help being attracted by the faint light.

    It was a huge ancient tree with branches that could not be seen at a glance, almost 100 meters in diameter, but it was a dead tree, with not even a single leaf on it, only withered branches, which felt rough when touched Unspeakable vicissitudes.

    Zhao Yunlan was shocked, could this be the ancient tree of merit?

    He walked down another kilometer and finally saw the roots of the ancient tree. Zhao Yunlan's feet found the land after a long time of wandering. He first walked around the ancient tree of merit and virtue, and found a simple and simple On the stone tablet, Zhao Yunlan could clearly see what was engraved on it by the dim light of the ancient wood.

    The word I have never seen, but I know - "Emperor Tianhoutu, a ghost town, a place of great disrespect."

    "Nüwa..." Zhao Yunlan suddenly called out this name for some reason.

    His voice floated in the water like a wave, sighing like a sigh, arousing a violent restlessness in the depths of the darkness, Zhao Yunlan ignored it, just stretched out his hand in a strange way, his fingertips touched the edge of the stone tablet, and the whole white light It poured into his mind, and there was a roar. He couldn't see anything for a while, but his eyes seemed to pierce the entire time and space, and fell on a woman with a snake tail.

    Her long hair and beautiful appearance gave him a sense of intimacy from the origin of life for no reason, like a mother and an elder sister.

    A strange yet familiar woman's voice sounded in his ear, she said, "Kunlun, what if Shennong is wrong? What if we are all wrong?"

    Shennong is wrong? What did Shennong do wrong?

    The voice added, "But we can't go back."

    and many more!

    There seemed to be tears in Nuwa's eyes, she glanced at him with infinite nostalgia, and opened her arms at him, Zhao Yunlan stretched out her hand, but before she could touch her, Nuwa was like a light and shadow shattered in the void. It was shattered into thousands of pieces in front of him.

    "No..." Zhao Yunlan said unconsciously, but failed to make a sound.

    The next moment, the light swayed, and Zhao Yunlan returned to the past in a trance that was not long ago. In an instant, he couldn't tell whether he was Lord Kunlun or a mortal five thousand years later, and he was immersed in the chaos of time and space.

    He felt that he was guarding the big black seal every day, sitting with his back against the big stone tablet, and staring at the ancient tree of merit and virtue in a daze when he had nothing to do, staying there for a whole day.

    Later, at some point in time, the handsome and strange boy followed him all day long, like a small tail, back and forth.

    Kunlun Jun ignored him at first, but finally couldn't help asking: "It's all on your territory, why are you still following me?"

    The young man straightened his eyebrows and said, "I like you."

    Kunlun Jun has been called rude all day long, and finally had the opportunity to speak to others once, so he seized this opportunity and "rebuked" without shyness and said: "Rude."

    The young ghost king looked at him inexplicably, not knowing why he was being rude.

    Kunlun Jun guarded the seal for an unknown number of years, and was extremely bored, so he asked again, "What do you like about me?"

    The young ghost king with a blank piece of paper was frank about his desires, and said bluntly: "It's beautiful, I want to hug you."

    Kunlun Jun couldn't help but glanced at this daring little ghost king. He didn't feel offended, but found it quite interesting. He teased him and said, "No pursuit at all, I despise you."

    Although the young ghost king didn't quite understand why he was despised, he thought that everything Kunlun said was reasonable, so he lowered his head in shame.

    Kunlun Jun beckoned: "Come here, I will teach you the righteousness of this uncivilized little thing."
