Chapter 24 Chapter Twenty-Four

Bai Taohua and Ding Xiaoxia rushed out of the door, just as a big man raised a knife to attack, Bai Taohua caught it with a knife, Ding Xiaoxia also swung a knife to fight, and the three of them killed in the courtyard.Bai Taohua yelled: "My grandma Bai doesn't kill unknown pawns, the thieves should report their names!" The big man cursed: "What are you doing, Grandma Bai? I'm Grandpa Black!" After fighting for several rounds, Bai Taohua and Ding Xiaoxia were weak after all, knowing that they were no match, they left the big man and fled. The big man didn't chase after him, he ran into the courtyard, and when he saw Hong Bo, he rushed forward to hug him, and cried: "Sir, I blame Li Kui for coming late, I didn't expect to kill you!"

It turns out that this big man is Li Kui. After he escaped from the Inversion Palace, he also touched here in the middle of the night, just in time to bump into Bai Taohua and Ding Xiaoxia who wanted to harm Hong Bo. Then Li Kui untied Hong Bo and carried him to the grass outside the temple, thinking that Hong Bo was dead, and wept loudly.Just as he was sad, he suddenly saw a fat monk walking up the path. This monk had a green shirt and fat trousers, a kind face, bare feet, staggered to Li Kui, and asked, "Man, why are you so sad?" Seeing his kind face, Li Kui knew he was not a villain, so he told the whole story.

The fat monk said with a smile: "I am Dashi Mangmang, and I am about to attend the Peach Blossom Meeting held by the Queen Mother. I met this gentleman at the Peach Blossom Meeting before. You don't have to be sad. Five thousand miles to the north, there is Yan Luoguo, There is everyone's register of life and death there, as long as you go there and tick off this gentleman's register of life and death, his life can be saved." After saying that, he drifted away. Li Kui was about to ask again: "I saw a piece of jade handkerchief floating in the air, wrapping Li Kui all over, and leading him into the air."

Li Kui knew that there was a god to help him, so he let the jade handkerchief flutter for an unknown number of hours. When the jade handkerchief fell to the ground, Li Kui opened his eyes and saw a city in front of him. , I think they have arrived in Yan Luoguo.But after hearing ghosts crying and howling wolves, and yelling, some bald little ghosts came running with knives and dragged him to the gate of the city. Li Kui couldn't struggle, so he had to tie a jade handkerchief around his waist. There are four imps holding halberds standing at the gate of the city, and there is a couplet on the gate.When Li Kui was in Liangshan, he also knew some characters from Wu Xuexue. See the couplet that reads:

Li Kui yelled at the kid: "Tell you guys in charge, Grandpa Li is here!"After waiting for a bag of cigarettes, the kid still didn't come back. Li Kui got impatient and shouted: "Your mother in charge of the shift is dead, why don't you come out?" Hearing a yell, a group of little ghosts came out surrounded by a big man.This big man is very majestic, with two copper maces stuck in his back, dressed in green clothes, and has sharp eyes.He asked Li Kui, "Who are you? What are you doing here?" Li Kui said: "I am Grandpa Li, Black Whirlwind, and I have come here for my life!" When the big man heard this, he was annoyed and said, "You nigger, if you dare to speak rudely and call me Qin Qiong, you will give me a mace first!" Pull the double mace up and down, and hit Li Kui.

Li Kui didn't show weakness, he drew his sword from his waist and blocked it head-on, the two of them came and killed each other, the little ghosts couldn't get started, they just shouted and cheered on one side. There are endowments as proof: Going straight with a single sword, Yan Luoguo flaunted his flair; with two maces facing each other, the Yin Department fought fiercely several times.Heihuhu, one is whirlwind back and forth; Huochichi, one is a celebrity from Shandong.One wants to save people, eliminate disasters and protect wanderers; the other wants to defend the country with blood and flow for the country.The place where the knife fell was like the rustling of fallen leaves in the autumn wind; the dance of the mace was like the chirping of a great river.The hair on the chest shows the true qualities of a hero; the heart and soul make the wind and rain more violent.One is the black whirlwind of one hundred singles and eight generals in Liangshanbo, and the other is the mace Merry of Wagangzhai, Jinan, Shandong!

Li Kui and Qin Qiong were fighting fiercely, and there was no difference between the winner and the loser. Another big man came out from there. When the big man saw Li Kui, he shouted: "Could this be the black whirlwind? Brother Qin, don't you want to stop?" Li Kui turned his head. This man: Wrap your head with a red scarf and wrap your waist with a royal belt; wrap your head with a red scarf is really brave, and wrap your head with a yellow belt is so heroic.Fluttering the green shirt, the hard bones of the whole body feel harder; the dimples of wine float and sink, and the face is charming and charming.If you don't return to your hometown, it's your job to protect your family and country; you don't tire of the wind and dust, and the golden whip dares to sweep away the minks in the country.

This big man was Yu Chigong, and Yuchigong said: "You are all good men, Black Whirlwind Li Kui is a good man from Liangshan, Qin Shubao is a good man from Wagang Village, why are you fighting each other? Isn't it hurtful?" Then Qin Qiong knew that it was Li Kui, so he hurriedly took away his mace and bowed his head in worship, so Li Kui naturally gave up.Yu Chigong asked Li Kui why he came here, and Li Kui told the story of saving Chen Hongbo.Yu Chigong said: "We don't know if there is his book of life and death there, you can check it out, but our Yin Division is in charge of Yan Chong and his wife Pan Jinlian, and he can only enter the altar with his symphony. You don't want it yet. Be in a hurry, come to the mansion and have a few glasses of wine with us first, to calm down." Li Kui agreed and Yu Chigong took him inside, this Yan Luo City was deserted and deserted.Yuchigong Qin Qiong led Li Kui to the judge's mansion and entered the Lihua hall.Yuchi Gongqin Qiong let Li Kui take the seat, Qin Qiong called the little ghost to serve wine and food, a few people talked speculatively, and naturally had a drink.

There are poems to prove it: After drinking, Li Kui was very drunk, and Yuchi hurriedly called Mrs. Hei to help Li Kui to sleep in the back. When Li Kui woke up, he saw that Qin Shubao and Yu Chigong were not there, and there was only one kid dozing beside the bed.Li Kui woke up the kid and asked, "Where are your judges?" The little ghost replied with sleepy eyes: "Grandpa Yuchi and Grandpa Qin heard that Zhong Kui, who beat ghosts, is coming, so they set up defenses outside the city." Li Kui replied, "It's ridiculous that Qin Qiong and Yuchi Gong are still protecting the little ghost."

At this time, Mrs. Hei came in, and seeing that Li Kui had woken up, she said, "Judge Yuchi asked us to take good care of you when he left, and told me not to walk around at will." Li Kui thanked, and Mrs. Hei went away. Li Kui got up from the bed and yawned. He wanted to go for a walk in the street and explore the underworld department. After thinking about it, he came to the street, but he saw a team of little ghosts patrolling, there were about ten of them. Then he shouted: "Run! Grandpa Zhong is here! Run!" As soon as the group of little devils heard this, they ran back. Li Kui caught up with the youngest and asked sharply, "Where is the hall of the underworld?"

The little ghost elf shuddered, knelt down and said, "There is an old female ghost who is more than 2,000 years old in my family, don't eat me!" Li Kui said: "Don't eat! Don't eat! Tell us quickly." The little ghost said: "Cross this street and turn left." Li Kui let the kid go and walked towards the hall.When I came to the gate of the Zou hall, I saw two little ghosts leaning on their knives and taking a nap at the door. Seeing that Li Kui didn't even pay attention to him, he strode into the gate of the Zou hall, and there was no one in the Zou hall.When Li Kui saw the playing drum hanging there, he couldn't help but draw out his waist knife, hold the tip of the knife upside down, and beat the drum with the knife pole. After more than 20 knocks, the official Yan Chong still didn't come out; Li Kui was impatient, so he simply held the knife stick, and poke the tip of the knife at the drum. Hearing only a sound of "Puchi", the drum was played and a big hole was pierced. Li Kui was so angry that he stopped beating and ran straight to the back hall.The back hall is elegant, passing through the moon gate, there is a garden in the back, and a Wangqing lake is rippling. Li Kui crossed the small bridge and saw a row of pavilions, and one of the Zhulou had lights, as if a figure was shaking.Li Kui ran to the attic, and through the moonlight, he saw the three characters "Yuhualou" written on the plaque of the attic. Li Kui came to the lighted place on the second floor and looked in through the bead curtain: he saw a fat official in underwear, playing around with his arms around a beautiful woman with a jade face.Li Kui thought: This official is Yan Song, the official, and the beautiful woman is his concubine Pan Jinlian. Seeing them arguing, Li Kui couldn't help getting angry. He strode in and grabbed Yan Song, cursing: "You traitor, I have been beating the drums for so long, and the sword is almost broken, but you are here to enjoy yourself, what should you do?" hit!" As he said that, he waved his fist and hit Yan Song, who was so shocked that he couldn't even speak when he saw "huhu" bumping into such a black guy.Li Kui beat Yan Song so loudly that he cried out.When Yan Song saw it, he knelt down and begged: "Ouch! Grandpa, if you have something to say, don't beat me twice, I'm an old bone!" Li Kui said: "You were the one who beat you! How many lives have you killed! Now you want to kill my master! You should be beaten!" As he spoke, he was full of fists like raindrops falling. Yan Song cried: "There is more than one treacherous minister like me? There will be in the future, there will be in today, and there will be in the future. Do you just hit me?" Li Kui said: "Everyone fights! Everyone fights! You fight too! They fight too!" How could Yan Song stand up to Li Kui's heavy punches, and his face was covered with blood after a while, leaving him dying. Li Kui saw that he could no longer hold on, so he pushed him away, grabbed Pan Jinlian, and was full of punches as he rode up. Pan Jinlian said sharply: "Oh, Grandpa Hei, please forgive me! Grandpa Hei, please forgive me!" Li Kui said: "Now you are calling for mercy, you shameless woman! Back then you were with Ximen Qing, Yan Shifan, and Wu Erlang again; now you are with Yan Song, and I tell you to go all the way! You caused Wu Dalang to die It’s so miserable! Should we fight or not?!” Pan Jinlian cried: "You should be beaten! You should be beaten! I am a rotten shoe, I am a bad woman who doesn't want a nose! But now there is more than one woman like me? There were in the past, there are now, and there will be more in the future. Whoever has power doesn't just climb up?!" "What a fool! I'll call you stubborn!" Li Kui added fuel to the fire, swung his fists in circles, punched and kicked again, and Pan Jinlian just complained in his heart.After beating for a while, I felt my hands were tired, so I stopped and asked, "Where do you think the Yin Division is?" Pan Jinlian was out of breath, and quickly replied: "It's right there...that... behind the spring platform." Li Kui put her down and hurried downstairs, when he suddenly saw a thief hooking on the roof of the right wing, poking his head, Li Kui shouted, "Who's there?" The thief was so frightened that he almost jumped downstairs.
