Stepping through the front yard and re-entering the room where the ancestral tablets are enshrined, there were only a few candles left before, and the candlelight was already faltering, and the whole room became much darker than before.
But Lian Ge, who has his eyes open, doesn't care, no matter how dark it is, it won't affect his sight.
Picking up the pair of candles thrown on the altar before, Lian Ge did not use the method of burning incense with mana in "Mysterious Common Sense" this time, but lit the pair of candles with the flickering candle before,
"Fatty Chen, come and have a bite."
As Lian Ge said, he randomly found a censer and plugged in the lit wax.
"Boss, I..." Fatty Chen looked at the burning candle, feeling a little moved, but hesitantly touched his round belly.
"Take a bite and let me see how you are." Lian Ge looked at Fatty Chen and explained briefly.
"Boss, I'm too hungry. If something happens to me, you must remember to save me..."
Saying that, Fatty Chen no longer controlled himself, and rushed towards the candle stuck in the incense burner.
"His..."
Floating on the burning wax, Fatty Chen took a deep breath, and then the pair of candles were consumed by rapid burning visible to the naked eye.
Immediately afterwards, Fatty Chen showed an expression of extreme enjoyment, turned over in the air, and collapsed there.
On the side, Lian Ge has been watching,
In the line of sight, just after Fatty Chen took a bite of the wax, his soul body changed again and became more solidified.
"Exclude the effect of mana burning incense, and because this scented wax is bought from the same place as the scented wax enshrined in the ancestral hall, the problem of the scented wax itself can basically be ruled out."
Lian Ge closed his eyes slightly, watching the changes that happened to Fatty Chen, thinking,
"As for normal incense, although it also has the effect of consolidating the soul and body, it is a process that accumulates over time, and it will never be so fast. Then there is only one influencing factor left, my reason."
"The identity of the heir of the Lian family, the identity of the celestial master of the underworld? Or something else? Just offering incense can quickly solidify the soul of the newly dead, to the point where it can interfere with reality?"
Lian Ge watched this scene, pondering.
In front of him, Fatty Chen took a sip of the scented wax, and couldn't hold back the temptation any longer. After paralyzing on the scented wax for a while, he turned around again and took a deep breath of the candle flame.
that's it,
The candles in the room danced from time to time, and it was quiet for a long time before it was finally broken by the sound.
"Boss...I really can't eat anymore, I feel like my stomach is about to explode..." Fatty Chen reluctantly looked away from the unburned candle, holding his round belly and said,
"Okay. Get up and move around, and see if your strength has grown again."
Lian Ge withdrew his thoughts, looked at Fatty Chen and said.
"It seems to be... But boss, I dare not move. I feel that if I move, my stomach will explode." Fatty Chen was paralyzed in mid-air, raised his head with difficulty and said, looking like he was about to cry.
"I'll make it up for you if it blows up." Lian Ge shook his head helplessly and said,
"Boss, you keep your word, if something happens to me, you have to save me..."
With that said, Fatty Chen stood up with difficulty and cautiously, then slowly squatted down, picked up the hoe on the ground,
"Hey, boss, I seem to be stronger again, and when I hold things, I don't feel the sense of isolation before, as if I'm really holding them in my hands."
Fatty Chen swung his hoe and became more and more excited. He seemed to be looking at the thing that was about to burst his stomach, and then turned his head to look at the unburned candle, wishing he could eat all the leftovers.
"If you eat any more, you'll really explode, even gods can't save you." Lian Ge glanced at Fatty Chen, and said calmly.
Hearing this, Fatty Chen shrank his neck, and decisively withdrew his gaze.
"Boss, is there anything else I need to do? I can do digging now." Fatty Chen said, waving his hoe,
"No, you can go."
Lian Ge glanced casually, shook his head and said,
"Go? Where are you going, boss."
"Where should I go? If you don't go to the underworld by yourself, are you planning for me to send you off?"
"Boss, can you let me follow you? I think you have a future if you follow the boss."
"No." Lian Ge shook his head,
"Hurry up and get out, now is the time, go to the city's land temple or Chenghuangmiao bus station, wait for the 444 bus, and it will take you directly to the underworld. If you can't find the place, just calm down and feel the faintness in the depths of the soul." Guidance, and then walk in that direction."
"Oh, boss..."
Fatty Chen answered first, then fell silent for a while, and asked hesitantly,
"Big brother, before that, can I go home...I want to see my parents again."
Hearing this, Lian Ge glanced at Fatty Chen, then looked away, looked outside the ancestral hall and said,
"The last bus No. 444 is at three o'clock in the morning, and you still have three hours. In addition, if you are caught by ghost police on the way, you will not be considered surrendered, but arrested. You should think carefully about it."
"Thank you, sir, but I still want to go home."
Hearing this, Lian Ge looked at Fatty Chen again, paused, and then said.
"Put out your hand."
"Okay, boss."
Fatty Chen stretched out his hand as he said, and handed it to Lian Ge.
Then, Lian Ge drove the mana, condensing it at the fingertips,
"Be patient."
As he spoke, Lian Ge moved his fingers, using his power to carve a line of words on Fatty Chen's hand.
"hiss……"
Fatty Chen grinned his teeth in pain, but he didn't dare to move at all.
"Okay, if you encounter ghost messengers on the road, show them these words. These words can last for four to five hours, enough for you to go home."
After engraving the words, Lian Ge withdrew his hand and said,
"Thank you boss."
"Get out of here now."
Chapter 63 Words
Lianjia Village, ancestral hall.
Seeing Fatty Chen's soul disappear and leave, Lian Ge looked away,
Glancing at the quiet and dark ancestral hall, he didn't stay any longer, and walked straight towards the old house of Lian's family.
……
On the other side, a bloated figure flickered in the sky of Lianjia Village, heading towards the county seat at a very fast speed.
After eating the incense respected by Lian Ge, Fatty Chen not only felt that his soul was more 'strength', but also his speed was much faster.
Under its extremely fast flying, it arrived at the county seat of Yanhu County in a very short time.
After arriving in the urban area of County D, Fatty Chen stopped slightly, observed the direction below, and then walked along the street again towards his house.
But this time, just passing a street in the city, two people in black suits appeared in front of Fatty Chen, blocking his way.
Looking at the two in front of him, according to the 'big brother', they are people from the ghosts of the underworld, Fatty Chen couldn't help being a little puzzled,
He feels, it seems, these two people are quite weak.
"Chen Cheng, right? We are from the underworld, come with us, you should go down." The two officials from the underworld looked at each other and noticed the change in Fatty Chen.
The soul that has just died for a few days, not only is the soul body solidified at this moment, but also entangled with a faint scent of incense.
"Brothers, I want to go home first, see my parents, and then go with you, okay?" Although he felt that the two were weak, Fatty Chen didn't dare to make a mistake, and said politely,
"No, you've been forced to stay in the world for several days, and it won't do you any good if you continue to stay." One of the officials of the underworld first shook his head, and then hinted at another ghost next to him to call for reinforcements, lest the ghost escape by force. ,
"...Then, you two ghost messenger brothers, look at this." Seeing that he couldn't accommodate, Fatty Chen decisively stretched out the line of words that Lian Ge had carved on his hand before.
Hearing this, one of the underworld personnel followed the words, and as soon as his eyes converged, his face changed, and at the same time, he signaled the other ghost messenger to stop calling for reinforcements.
I saw that on Fatty Chen's hand, there was such a line engraved with mana,
"I've covered this guy - Lian Ge"
"Master of Heaven..."
Feeling the brilliant mana overflowing from the handwriting, and thinking about the place where the hunted ghost stayed for the past two days, the official of the underworld murmured to himself,
"Since there is an order from the celestial master, you can go, but after you go home and see your parents, remember to rush to the Chenghuang Temple in the west of the city tonight."
After taking a deep look at Fatty Chen, the officials of the underworld stepped aside.
"Thank you two big brothers." Fatty Chen became excited when he saw that the 'big brother' was really useful, and after passing by the ghosts of these two places, he quickly headed towards home.
At the same time, he also knew the name of the "big brother" in the mouth of the ghosts in the underworld-"Heavenly Master"
……
The two government officials of the underworld stayed in place for a while before leaving in a flash.
At the same time, I can't help feeling silently in my heart,
"This ghost's fortune is profound, and he was able to meet a celestial master."
"Yeah, hey, tell me, should we report to the Celestial Master? After all, it is something that the Celestial Master ordered. Since we have encountered it, is it better to report it?"
"Well... let's take him down after the ghost finishes visiting his parents."
The two civil servants of the underworld were talking to each other and walked away.
……
Fatty Chen, after passing these two ghost messengers, continued to quickly move towards home.
Perhaps those two officials of the underworld notified the rest of the ghost messengers. In the second half of the journey, no one came to stop Fatty Chen's way.
After a very short time, he returned to his familiar home.
Entering through the door, you can feel the tranquility of the home.
In the past, the noisy TV in the living room did not sound, and the parents did not sit on the sofa, watching TV and arguing,
On the coffee table, the ashtray was full of cigarette butts, and there was some mess on the ground. This was something his mother couldn't tolerate before...
Fatty Chen turned around and flashed into his previous room, and saw the lights in the room were on, and two familiar figures were sitting beside his bed, gently brushing his photo, weeping silently...
……
Lianjia Village, the old house of the Lianjia.
"crunch..."
Pushing the courtyard door open again, Lian Ge walked straight in and kicked him back.
While walking towards the house, Lian Ge was also thinking about what happened tonight,
"I didn't expect the incense I worshiped to have this effect... Although I can't figure out the reason for a while, it's better to respect this incense wax..."
Walking to the main room, Lian Ge randomly found a stool and sat down, whispering something to himself,
"Maybe, next time you go down, you can ask brother Xue..."
Since he couldn't figure it out for a while, Lian Ge temporarily put aside the matter of incense sticks, and focused his thoughts on another matter tonight,
"The talisman... I don't know if these ancestors calculated it well. It just happened to be my turn, and the talisman can't work..."
Lian Ge thought about what happened before, and couldn't help speculating in the direction of conspiracy theories.
"Forget it, even if this is the case, it's meaningless. We still have to find a way to solve it."
While thinking, Lian Ge poured himself a glass of water and sat back at the table in the main room.
Looking at the yard outside the hall and the mountains beyond, Lian Ge's thoughts flooded,
In fact, before, when he was still on the edge of the village, he had already thought of two possible ways,
"The first method is also the simplest and most direct method. Since the talisman array can no longer be used, then simply leave him alone.
Go directly to the underworld, go to Brother Xue, rely on the status of a celestial master, call thousands of ghost messengers, and directly surround the entire Lianjia Village for me, to see which ghost dares to rush in for me. "
