Lu Zheng had no purpose in coming to the Chenghuang Temple this time. It was purely because he promised to bring wine as a guest again before leaving last time. This time he came to fulfill his promise.

Of course, it also means to consolidate friendship.

We exchanged gifts last time. If we don’t see each other for a long time, it will become more or less transactional, and we will become a bit unfamiliar.

Lu Zheng didn’t know if his feelings were right, but he would never go wrong if he brought wine and came to Xin Zhanting to chat and compare swords.

Sure enough, Xin Zhanting was very happy. Lu Zheng brought wine for a long time. Lu Zheng drank and ate meat at the same time, while he just drank one cup after another.

Seeing Lu Zheng looking over, Xin Zhanting licked his lips, seemingly a little embarrassed, and explained, "When you become a ghost, you only rely on incense and netherworld energy to support your ghost body, and you don't even need to eat. It's just that I was good at this when I was alive. Even though I'm dead now, my habit has not changed."

Lu Zheng raised his glass in salute, thought for a while and asked, "You drink, can you still drink it? Are you drunk?"

"Yes!" You have become a ghost, how can you still get drunk?

Lu Zheng didn’t understand, but Xin Zhanting did not continue to explain, and he didn’t know whether it was common sense or he didn’t know.

Fortunately, Lu Zheng doesn't try to get too drunk. He can get drunk if he can. Being drunk is good. Only when you are drunk can you build relationships.

With the wine in his ears, Xin Zhanting seemed to suddenly remember something.

"By the way, Brother Lu, didn't you say that you helped Mrs. Shen kill a wild boar demon last time?"

"That's right!"

"Hey, look what this is!"

Xin Zhanting clapped his hands and asked the guard to carry a big bundle out from behind.

Xin Zhanting carried the bundle to the middle hall, put it down, and opened it, revealing a roll of leather.

　"This is..."

　"These days, I asked the city patrol to wander around the south of the city more often, but I accidentally discovered this baggage in the woods."
/>
Xin Zhanting unfolded the leather, and it turned out to be a four-meter-square animal skin.

Judging from the style...

"Wild boar skin! This is the wild boar skin that the pig demon took away from Qing Sheng House."

"There is also a book called "The Legend of Red Ling", which was originally handwritten seventy years ago."

　"Oh?"

"I guess Piggy is here to take revenge. Shopkeeper Sun is a descendant of the Orion in the book."

"I've heard stories and watched operas, but they haven't mentioned it yet. What’s that Orion’s surname?”

“The Legend of Red Ling was written seventy years ago. The Orion was not important in the story. Later, it was changed three times and the Orion’s surname was given to him. There are no changes. If you look at this book, there are more details in it than the stories circulating today."

"Is there anything else?"

Lu Zheng answered curiously I picked up some old books and looked through them briefly.

Sure enough, the surname of Orion was mentioned in it, and it was also said that after hunting the big wild boar, the pork was used as a banquet for the scholar and Hong Ling, while Orion took the tusks and leather of the pig demon.

"It's true!"

Lu Zheng read the book and then looked at the wild boar skin on the ground. He felt that the story in the play appeared before his eyes, which was quite shocking. of.

"If all the wild boar demons are found on the descendants of Orion, then Zhang Sheng and Hong Ling..."

Lu Zheng suddenly discovered that sometimes the ending of the story does not It's not the end, maybe there will be new stories to continue decades later.

"It depends on their luck." Xin Zhanting patted the wild boar's skin and said, "The wild boar followed the bloodline mark and came to the door. If they have moved away and left nothing behind, Or this pig demon came here first, maybe he can escape."

"Okay, this matter has nothing to do with us, why do you think so much." Xin Zhanting raised his head With the wild boar skin in his hand, he said to Lu Zheng, "It's almost winter now. This is a good piece of skin. Let the tailor in the city make you some sets of robes so you can survive the winter!"

Lu Zheng , "..."

We are telling a story about love and hatred, why did we jump directly to the fur coat in the next step?

"Okay, thank you big brother, you're welcome!" Lu Zheng accepted immediately.

I do have winter clothes, but they are in modern times and are not suitable for taking over.

Now that I have a piece of wild boar skin, I can not only make one for myself, but also one for each of the Liu sisters.

It’s a pleasure.

"You can take this book back, there is no use leaving it here."

"Okay."

Lu Zheng thought to Liu Qing Yan also listens to opera, and this original handwritten copy of "The Legend of Red Ling" is indeed a good gift.

After talking about the wild boar skin, the two of them continued to drink. After they were drunk, they compared knives. It was not until the sky was getting brighter that Lu Zheng said goodbye and left.

He gave the wild boar skin to the tailor shop and ordered three sets of furs, one for men and two for women, two large and one small. Then Lu Zheng gave "The Legend of Red Ribbon" to Liu Qingyan, which made him angry. She took herself to Yuling Garden again.

In the following days, Lu Zheng ran on both sides, while looking for where to get some more light of luck.

Then Yuan Jing came to the door with a middle-aged man in black and brocade robes.

“Junior brother!”

“Senior brother.” Lu Zheng bowed his hands in greeting, “This is...”

“Yizhou Town Yisi , Duan Changzai." The middle-aged man cupped his fists and saluted.

Suppress the Yisi! National Security Bureau!

"It turns out it's the Lord of Zhenyisi, hello, hello, please come in!"

Lu Zheng calmly invited the two of them to the main hall to serve tea.

"Senior brother, are you looking for me for something?"

Yuan Jing and Duan Changzai obviously wanted to find something for them. Lu Zheng thought about it and took the initiative to ask, otherwise It seems a bit too deep and sophisticated.

"Yes, there was a case in Tonglin County. Mr. Duan came to solve the case. Now that the matter is difficult, I asked you to help."

"Uh, what's the case? ? I didn’t notice anything unusual in the county?”

“In the past three or four months, more than a dozen men have died in the county.” Duan Changzai said in a deep voice, “The bodies were sent to the state After investigation, it was found that there is evil spirit remaining in the mansion."

"Evil spirit?" Lu Zheng blinked, knowing why the Zhenyi Department took action.

Duan Changzai nodded, "Those corpses were all caused by excessive sexual intercourse. There was very little evil spirit, and the county could not detect it. There were just too many cases of the same death, so the county sent them to them as a routine. I went to the state capital for a re-examination and found out. After investigation, it was found that there was scorpion venom remaining in the demonic aura, so it should be a scorpion demon."

Lu Zheng grinned, "In other words, the county There is a scorpion demon lurking, seducing men, sucking their essence, and killing them."

Duan Changzai nodded, "Exactly."

"Then you are looking for me... …"

"The scorpion demon is located in a crowded place, so it is difficult to hit it with one hit. I checked today and I guess she is already alert."

Duan Chang Zai continued, "It is inevitable that she will escape overnight, so I plan to take action tonight. However, the scorpion demon is extremely fast, so I hope that Taoist Priest Yuan Jing and Mr. Lu will sweep the formation outside to prevent her from escaping."
