Subversion of the plot [Comprehensive]

Chapter 176 Liaozhai: Liancheng

The wedding date of the two families was fixed, Liancheng fell ill, Shi Xiaolian invited several doctors, but they couldn't figure out why, there were rumors that Liancheng had a strange disease.Shi Xiaolian was so anxious that he went out to seek medical treatment from time to time.

In the original play, Wang Huacheng brought a Western Region Toutuo to treat Liancheng's illness, but now the Western Region Toutuo delayed his trip because of fighting with Zhiqiu Yiye, so he did not meet Wang Huacheng, so naturally he did not come to Jinning County.Originally, the conflict between Wang Huacheng and Qiao Sheng was not only about Liancheng, but also about the comfort zone.

Qiao Sheng himself was an orphan, and he was kind and kind since he was a child. The place where he lived was a poor place on the outskirts of the city. He rented it out at a price of ten taels of silver per year, so that the poor could have a place to live.Toutuo of the Western Regions said that this place was a blessed place, so Wang Huacheng bought it at a high price, forcing the original owner to unilaterally tear up the contract and drive out those who lived in the comfort zone.

Now that Wang Huacheng has no one to use, the comfort zone is still the comfort zone, but Liancheng's illness can't wait.

Since arriving in Jinning County, Tao Shuobai has rented a small courtyard. Compared with an inn, living alone is more comfortable.For example, now, after dumplings, he started to try making glutinous rice balls again. Although the Lantern Festival has passed, it is always a pity that he did not catch up with the Lantern Festival.Of course, what is more important is Qiye's coldness and reticence.

Ever since he was with Qiye, Tao Shuobai hadn't asked him about his background and identity, but he could always tell something from a person's words and deeds.

Qiye is a demon, and it is definitely not an ordinary demon, but it does not have a demonic aura, and it is no different from a human being.He has a lot to say but is not good at expressing it. Occasionally, his eyes are heavy with confusion, as if he bears a huge responsibility. This is not what he wants, but he cannot refuse it.

In the beginning, Qiye followed him because he wanted to find a way to return to the original world, but he figured out that this time is coming.

Ning Caichen came in from the door and was surprised when he saw the two people filled a basin full of glutinous rice balls: "The Lantern Festival is over, why are you still eating glutinous rice balls?"

"Take a few to taste." Tao Shuobai glanced around as soon as Ning Caichen came in, and understood: "Zhiqiu is not here."

"I haven't seen him for two or three days. Could it be that there are ghosts and monsters in Jinning County?" Ning Caichen muttered, and then talked about Liancheng's illness: "This Liancheng girl is really pitiful. It doesn't count that she was beaten by her family, but she got it again. Strange disease. Will senior cure it?"

Now Ning Caichen also followed Zhiqiu Yiye to call "senior" and regarded Tao Shuobai as omnipotent. This sentence is not so much asking whether Tao Shuobai will cure the disease, but whether he is willing to go or not. Heal Liancheng.

Knowing the plot, Tao Shuobai naturally knew that he accidentally killed the monk who treated Liancheng, and besides, there was nothing wrong with the girl Liancheng.

The always taciturn Qiye suddenly asked Ning Caichen: "Didn't you get a golden mandarin duck? Didn't you get recruited by Shi Taishou as your son-in-law?"

"It was just an accident." Ning Caichen quickly explained, looking a little guilty.

But Qiye said: "Zhi Qiu Yiye didn't say that, he said he was about to drink your wedding wine."

"When did he say that? I've already explained it!" Ning Caichen scratched his head anxiously, unable to sit still, and hurried out to find someone.

Only then did Tao Shuobai look at Qiye in surprise: "The two of them..."

"They were arguing because of Bin Niang, I overheard it." Originally, Qiye also saw something, but that day he overheard the two quarreling because of it, and always felt a little out of harmony. Later, when he saw Tao Shuobai, he thought of his own Only when I thought about it did I suddenly realize it.

Laughing and beating and scolding along the way, Ning Caichen has long forgotten the Fu Qingfeng who surprised him at the beginning, and Zhiqiu Yiye's willingness to travel south together is not because he wants to learn any new skills from Tao Shuobai.The two people's thoughts are unclear, but their reactions cannot be faked.

Knead the last glutinous rice ball in his hand, wash his hands with water, and said: "I'll go to Shi Xiaolian's house, the business here is over, let's go back to Lanruo Temple."

When Qiye heard about Lanruo Temple, she understood.

Tao Shuobai came to Shi Xiaolian's gate, only said that he was a doctor, and was immediately welcomed in respectfully.

In the original play, it was said that Liancheng's illness was due to excessive grief and broken heart arteries. In a word, there is nothing greater than heart death.Lian Cheng had just made love to Qiao Sheng and was overjoyed. He was told to marry someone else. As the wedding day approached, anxiety, panic, heartache, longing and despair, all kinds of emotions rolled day and night, knocking down the delicate body.

In the play, the monks first use magical powers to cure the disease, and then say that they need the same medicine to cure the disease. Often the medicine is mentioned in the treatment, which is the most critical point. The medicine is not good enough, and other medicines will not work .

Yao Yin needs a piece of breast meat from a man who admires Liancheng.

To be precise, it is a piece of meat above the atrium, and it needs to be a man who loves Liancheng, which means that this piece of medicine is specially made to heal Liancheng's heart disease.Cook this breast meat with Baihua dew to make minced meat and eat it.It seems that cannibalism is scary, but in ancient times, there were often examples of using human flesh as an example in treating diseases. What's more, what Liancheng ate was not a piece of meat, but his lover's "heart".The disease should be cured.

For Liancheng, Qiao Sheng sent the meat away, not only the pain of gouging out the meat, but also his future.

It's the time of the county exam, and the partial student has just gouged out a piece of flesh from his chest, and travels a long distance to take the exam, how can he survive?So Qiao Sheng passed out directly in the examination room. It is conceivable that his future is gone.Even if you haven't taken the exam again in two years, sometimes the exam is all about luck. If you miss it once, how do you know it's not a lifetime?

"Doctor, how is my daughter?" Shi Xiaolian hurriedly asked, even though the person in front of him was very young and didn't look like a doctor, but he could only take a chance and act like a living doctor.

"Miss mourned too much and hurt her heart. The disease of the body is easy to cure, but the disease of the heart is difficult to cure. If the heart disease is not cured, the lady will still not wake up." Tao Shuobai said.

"How to cure this heart disease?" Shi Xiaolian guessed a little bit, but he was very unwilling to have a poor scholar as his son-in-law.

"Heart disease needs to be healed with heart medicine. If Miss's wish is fulfilled, Miss will wake up." No one can make Liancheng get better immediately by Tao Shuobai, but the symptoms are not cured. As long as she fails to be with Qiao Sheng, she will be discouraged again at any time Cold sick.

Shi Xiaolian's face changed slightly.

Tao Shuobai didn't say much, just left a bottle of pills, and told Liancheng to take one pill every day.This medicine can maintain her bodily functions, and it hasn't hindered her for a while, but if it really drags on for a long time, it will be difficult to wake up.

In fact, it is not impossible to let Qiao Sheng cut the flesh like in the original book, but this will make Binniang jealous, and she will also suffer from the same disease. Shi Taishou's beloved daughter will exchange the flesh, and finally, just like in the play, Two lives were lost.Both Liancheng and Binniang are kind-hearted women, but their environment has greatly influenced them since they were young, so that they are used to competing for superiority.When Lian Cheng died, he and Qiao Sheng communicated with each other. They were confidants, and they had already made love, so that's all.Bin Niang paid a lot, even if she got Qiao Sheng's heart in the end, it was not pure love, and she couldn't even stay together in the end.

For the sake of Binniang being Ning Caichen's distant cousin, it would be best to bypass this almost mutually damaging plot.

Tao Shuobai didn't expect that, because he didn't propose the medicine quotation, Shi Xiaolian didn't trust him, and even thought that Liancheng's situation might not be that serious.Although the medicine cited in the original play is bloody, it is precisely because of this that people cannot ignore the seriousness and intractability of the patient.

When Wang Huacheng asked about Liancheng's illness, Shi Xiaolian said it, full of worries.

Wang Huacheng is a businessman. He has been exposed to it since he was a child, and has been traveling all year round. He is used to solving problems with the eyes of a businessman.He felt angry at first, but then he came up with a plan: "Master Shi, the wedding date has been fixed, so you can prepare according to the original plan, let's try that doctor Tao's method."

"What?" Shi Xiaolian was surprised, thinking that Wang Huacheng would really give up Liancheng.

Wang Huacheng waved his hand: "Master Shi misunderstood. I fell in love with Miss Liancheng at first sight, and if I wanted to marry her, how could I give it up to a poor scholar. In this world, money can turn ghosts around, so I don't believe it can't be done." Let Qiao Sheng be used by me!"

"This... Qiao Sheng's temper is very stubborn." Shi Xiaolian deeply understood.

Wang Huacheng didn't believe it.

It is conceivable that when Qiao Sheng saw Wang Huacheng put a pile of silver in front of him, asking him to appear in the new house and pretend to be a bridegroom to wake Liancheng up, he was extremely annoyed, and immediately kicked him out and threw all the silver. go out!

"You, hello! I insist on asking you to beg me!" Wang Huacheng was extremely ashamed.

After some inquiries, Wang Huacheng learned that Qiao Sheng was raised by Gu Miaozhu and had no relatives. Instead, he often rented a piece of land from Tao Yuanwai, settled a group of poor people, and called that place Anle Nest.

Wang Huacheng immediately made up his mind.

He found Tao Yuanwai, first mentioned Shi Taishou, and suppressed it with force.

Shi Taishou's original partner died early, and his current wife, Fang, is filling in the house, but even if it is filling in the house, she is also the wife of the prefect. It just so happens that Wang Huacheng is Fang's aunt, and Shi Taishou is his uncle.Compared with Ning Caichen, the relationship between Wang Huacheng and Shi Taishou is naturally closer, with a distance of three thousand miles. Fang is Ning Caichen's cousin, and now he is able to come all the way to join him, mainly because of Fang's relationship with the dead Ning Caichen Mother relationship is very good.

When Tao Yuanwai heard that he was Shi Taishou's nephew, he was afraid.

Wang Huacheng once again offered a high price to lure them with money.

After Tao Yuanwai weighed it, he agreed.

The land in Anlewo changed owners in an instant, and the contract that Qiao Sheng signed at the beginning was also transferred to Wang Huacheng's hands.Wang Huacheng found Qiao Sheng again and showed him the title deed.

"Now, you can either take these people and move away, or agree to my conditions. The wedding is only three days away, so you only have three days to think about it!"

When Binniang heard about this, she angrily reprimanded Wang Huacheng, and at the same time went to help Qiao Sheng.

Shi Taishou was also dissatisfied with Wang Huacheng's actions, but he didn't want to stand out. Although he was Wang Huacheng's uncle, he was not close.Seeing that Binniang was going to help Qiao Sheng, she immediately stopped her because she didn't want her daughter to continue to associate with Qiao Sheng.

"Father! Wang Huacheng will force those poor people away, and they will be homeless!" Bin Niang never cared about the suffering of people's livelihood before, but after getting to know Qiao Sheng, she also has a meticulous side.Even though Qiao Sheng was concerned about the comfort zone, she really sympathized with those people.

"Then what are you going to do when you go there? Fight Wang Huacheng?" Shi Taishou believed that this was definitely her way of doing things.

Bin Niang knew that she was impulsive, and she could fight with her hands, but not with her brain. She accidentally saw Ning Caichen walking by outside the door, and immediately stopped: "Cousin!"

"Uncle, cousin." Seeing their father and daughter talking, Ning Caichen didn't want to disturb them at first, for fear that he would be a peacemaker again, trying to persuade and coax him.

"Cousin, don't you want to ask my father something? You talk about it." Bin Niang wanted to slip away.

Before Ning Caichen could speak, the prefect Shi said first, "Caichen came just in time. You, a girl, Bin Niang, should stay at home. Let your cousin help you with the matter over there."

Ning Caichen knew that this was Shi Taishou's perfunctory trick on Binniang.

Qiao Sheng finally obeyed Wang Huacheng. Firstly, he could not just sit and watch the destruction of his comfort zone. Secondly, Liancheng had been ill for too long. Shi Xiaolian had not allowed him to see Liancheng. If this could make Liancheng wake up...

Just when Qiao Sheng made up his mind, news came suddenly——Liancheng died!

Shi Xiaolian and his wife were in great grief, and the red silk lanterns that had been arranged had to be replaced and decorated into a mourning hall.Tao Shuobai came to the door again, but Shi Xiaolian didn't understand the other party's intention.

Tao Shuobai said bluntly: "Miss has just died, her soul is not far away, and there is still a chance to return to life."

"Ah? My daughter hasn't come back to life yet? Great! This priest, what should I do? Tell me quickly!" Shi Xiaolian was surprised and delighted.

"It is necessary to find a person who is not much different from Miss in age, and voluntarily change lives with Miss."

Change of life?Who is willing?No matter how much money you have, you can't find such a person. After all, if you're dead, what's the use of money.

Shi Xiaolian promised to pay a lot of money, but after three days, no such person showed up. If no one can be found within seven days, Liancheng will report to the underworld.Just when Shi Xiaolian was anxious, Qiao Sheng came.

"I would like to change my life with Miss."

"...As expected, my daughter saw the right person." No matter how disgusted she was before, she could tell now that Wang Huacheng hid both of them.

"Qiao has a request. He hopes to be husband and wife with Miss before he dies, so that he can rest in peace under the nine springs." Qiao Sheng said.

"This, this..." Shi Xiaolian wanted to refuse, but others were willing to give up their lives, and he couldn't open his mouth if he wanted to refuse.

"Master, promise! As long as my daughter can live, he will be our family's benefactor. What's wrong with being a son-in-law?" Dai has never had much room to speak, but when it comes to the death of the only girl, she has to be a mother. .Dai didn't wait for Shi Xiaolian to nod, and directly ordered his servants to prepare for the wedding of the two.

Shi Xiaolian had no choice but to admit it.

That night, the red silk was hung high, and Qiao Sheng, wearing a groom's suit, led Liancheng to the wedding hall step by step.At this time, Liancheng is a ghost, and in the eyes of everyone, only one end of the red silk is held by Qiao Sheng, while the other end is floating in mid-air, and no one can see Liancheng's appearance.

This is what Tao Shuobai did on purpose.

The guests who came to watch the ceremony tonight included Gu Miaozhu and a few children from the comfort zone, Binniang, Ning Caichen, Zhiqiu Yiye, and Wang Huacheng who was unwilling to hear the words.Mrs. Dai withdrew Wang Huacheng's dowry. When Wang Huacheng heard that Liancheng was going to marry Qiao Sheng, even if Qiao Sheng would die later, he still felt uncomfortable, so he wanted to see if it was their trick.However, when he saw the red silk floating, he also vaguely saw a pair of green ghostly eyes. He let out a scream, and immediately ran away in fright.

When entering the wedding hall, everyone exclaimed, it turned out that Liancheng gradually revealed his figure, also wearing a bright red wedding dress and a hipa.

Tao Shuobai withdrew from it, and called Zhiqiu Yiye to give a few words: "I will leave the rest to you."

"Senior is leaving?" Zhi Qiu Yiye asked.

"Well, I want to accompany Qiye to a place far away."

It is true that Liancheng can return to life after death. As for saying that Qiao Sheng needs to change his life, it is purely a lie.Qiao Sheng was also kept in the dark, but the dead Liancheng knew it well, and entered into Qiao Sheng's dream saying that he wanted to be a husband and wife with Qiao Sheng, otherwise he would rather die.

The purpose of this wedding is to scare Wang Huacheng away so that he won't make trouble, so what can Wang Huacheng do when things come to a foregone conclusion tomorrow?The second is to give up on Binniang, even though Qiao Sheng fell in love with Binniang in the original play, but with Liancheng around, Qiao Sheng and Liancheng are the confidant and destined marriage.Bin Niang is not in deep trouble now, and because of the fight with Lian Cheng, she can always put it down after a long time.

Going back to Lanruo Temple, the dilapidated place is the same as before, and there are also a few lonely ghosts living in it.

"Can you break through the barriers of time and space?" Only then did Qiye ask the doubts in his heart: "Who are you?"

Qiye could clearly feel that Tao Shuobai did not belong to this world.

"I'm here because I have some things to do." Tao Shuobai suddenly felt the space-time fluctuation, and immediately grabbed Qiye and shot towards the forest.

At this time, in the clearing of the forest, the space twisted, and a thin black gap suddenly appeared, and gradually became larger, opening a space-time channel.Tao Shuobai pulled Qiye into it, the light flashed, and the passage closed and disappeared again.

I didn't expect that I was still in the forest through the space-time tunnel, but there was still a difference. It was originally night, but now it was day.Both of them are not mortals, and they can immediately feel the strange aura in the air. The evil and ghost aura are all mixed together, and the aura is dark and obscure. There must be a big monster entrenched here.The Lanruo Temple in another world no longer has the dryad grandma, and the few lonely ghosts who gathered later did not make a difference, so this is another Lanruo Temple.

"I'm back." Qiye sighed vaguely.

"Lanruo Temple, there is also a Lanruo Temple here?" Tao Shuobai vaguely guessed, and sure enough, when the bronze mirror rang, a new plot appeared on it.

——"A Chinese Ghost Story" is clearly a very familiar name, but the plot is completely different.

Tao Shuobai quickly browsed the plot, and then looked at Qiye, frowning.

"What's wrong?" Qiye was sensitive to the change in his mood.

"I know some things." Tao Shuobai was not sure if this is a good time, but there are some secrets, it is better to know them earlier than to know them when it is irretrievable.

"I've been away for a long time, so I have to go back to the Demon Palace first." Qiye was worried that her disappearance would worry the Queen Mother Yinyue and cause turmoil in the dynasty. If it caused war with the righteous way of the world, it would be troublesome.

"No hurry, first find a place with people and ask to see how long you have been away." Tao Shuobai felt that the flow of time may not be the same.

Knowing what he meant, Qiye didn't object, and the two avoided the eyes and ears of Meiji of Lanruo Temple, and set off towards the town.

When the two went to the town to ask, Qiye only left for a few days.

"I still have to go back." As the emperor of the dynasty, such a silent disappearance can imagine the kind of panic it would cause, and he had to think of a reason to prevaricate it.

"I won't be able to go to the Demon Palace for the time being. I'll wait for you in the town." Tao Shuobai said.

"...Okay." Qiye couldn't think of what to say for a while, sat silently for a while, then got up and left.

"Don't make me wait too long, I still have something to tell you." Qiye was in a strange mood, and Tao Shuobai decided to wait for him to come out of the magic palace before revealing the secret. At that time, he also had absolute privacy and absolute time to calm down calmly.

However, Qiye felt happy because of this waiting and hidden concern, her usual cold face was slightly warmed up, and a small smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

This Qiye looks very handsome, and so young - I only know after watching the plot, Qiye is 20 years old!

This town is called Nanguo Town, and not far from the town is the famous Lanruo Temple. Everyone knows that there are monsters in Lanruo Temple, and it is definitely a change of face.The town is not big. Although the townspeople are afraid of ghosts, their days are still peaceful, but they are very wary.

When Tao Shuobai and Qiye arrived, everyone saw them and walked around, watching and pointing from afar.Tao Shuobai found an inn, the owner of the inn is more courageous, but he still asks questions, wishing to interrogate him clearly.

"I'm a Taoist." Tao Shuobai knew why the townspeople were so nervous and timid, he took out a talisman and stroked it in the air, the talisman ignited spontaneously, and a burst of fresh air burst out, and everyone in the inn felt refreshed .

"Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm a Taoist priest!" The boss's attitude towards Tao Shuobai suddenly changed, he was enthusiastic and respectful.

Tao Shuobai asked a family to go to the room, saw that there were many people sitting and eating in the lobby of the inn, so he asked for a seat on the second floor.

I ordered a table of food and wine, but I kind of missed the duck blood soup made by Qiye.

The town is not big, and the inn is located in the middle of the street. Sitting on the second floor, the whole street can be seen through the wide open windows.Today is sunny and cloudless. Although the people in the town are not a constant stream of people, they are already very lively for the population of the town.

At this time, a person came from outside the town, which immediately attracted everyone's attention.

——This person is dressed like a scholar, and he looks fair and refined, but with a bookcase on his back, he looks like a stranger, a stranger!Although the town is wary of foreigners, it does not reject them, but this person came from the direction of Lanruo Temple.

Everyone knew that Lanruo Temple was haunted by ghosts, and the back mountain was full of bones. This person passed by unharmed. People were more imaginative, and their expressions became more frightened.

"Ning Caichen?" Tao Shuobai saw that the man's face was exactly the same as that of Ning Caichen in the previous world.

Ning Caichen was frightened last night, and finally arrived in Nanguo Town safely. When he saw the words "Fenglai Inn" in front of him, he breathed a sigh of relief and started digging out his things.He came to collect the bill on his behalf, and he has a book in his hand, which is the basis, but...

The ledger is lost!

Tao Shuobai's heart is complicated, Ning Caichen in this world is Qiye's brother!
