Chapter 107: Three Magical Instruments
Chapter 107: Three Magical Instruments
At two o'clock in the afternoon, Shen Xia Xia was taking a nap.
Cui Jue arrived at Shen Xia Xia's metaphysics studio on time.
"Dog Xia Xia!" Cui Jue's gloomy voice sounded.
Shen Xiaxia suddenly opened her eyes: "Come and pick me up."
"Do I have a choice?" Cui Jue sighed.
"Let's go." Shen Xia Xia stood up with a smile, straightened her clothes, took the blue package and prepared to leave.
Cui Jue glanced at her blue bag and frowned: "You are not going to slay demons, why do you bring this infinite bag?"
Shen Xia Xia smiled and said, "You have good taste. You recognized what it was at a glance. Others thought I was carrying a tattered cloth bag."
"Of course I know. You know I like collecting magical instruments." Cui Jue's mouth twitched.
The Infinite Bag is famous for its unlimited carrying capacity. Although it is just a small bag, it can hold countless things. Shen Xia Xia's magic weapons are all in it.
When you want to use it, you can take it out easily.
Of course, her purpose of bringing the Wuyin bag to the underworld was to put Cui Jue's magic weapon in it. Isn't Cui Jue asking this question even though he already knew the answer?
Cui Jue was really scared, so she plundered his treasure trove with a wave of her bag.
Shen Xia Xia’s main focus is sincerity.
"Go pack your magic weapon."
Cui Jue frowned and said, "You are so dog-like. The name Gou Xia Xia is well-deserved."
"Let's go quickly. Don't worry, I will jump into your heart." Shen Xia Xia urged.
Cui Jue: ...
Shen Xia Xia and Cui Jue came to the underworld.
Just like before, the soul’s first stop is the Land Temple, the second stop is Huangquan Road, and the third stop is Wangxiangtai.
When Shen Xia Xia passed by Wangxiangtai, she stopped and looked for her father-in-law Lu Mingan among a group of ghosts.
"What are you looking for?" Cui Jue followed her gaze.
"My father-in-law Lu Mingan." Shen Xiaxia's eyes fell on a group of ghosts: "Strange, why didn't I see him this time?"
"Him," Cui Jue said in a relaxed tone, sounding as if he was very familiar with Lu Mingan.
"You know?" Shen Xia Xia asked back, "You deal with so many ghosts in a year. If you can remember it, it means there is something special."
"Of course he is special. He died in vain. The ferryman took great pains to get him in. He cried, made a scene and even threatened to hang himself before I finally accepted him. But in the end, he just stayed at Wangxiangtai and refused to leave."
"Died in vain?" Shen Xia Xia frowned: "I remember they said that my parents-in-law died in an accident."
"Accident?" Cui Jue chuckled: "There are not so many accidents in this world."
"So someone secretly took their lives, making their deaths not conform to the records in the Book of Life and Death?"
"Yes, and it was a supernatural event, otherwise it wouldn't have been so difficult for the ferryman to recover him. Despite this, your mother-in-law still slipped through the net, and her soul has not been found until now."
"Xia Xia, dog." Cui Jue looked at her with a serious look in his eyes. "Have you ever thought that your fate is arranged by something or a force behind the scenes?"
"No matter who you meet or what happens to you now, it's because someone wants you to do it and wants you to know him."
"Including your marriage, and even the metaphysics studio you established?"
Cui Jue's words shocked Shen Xia Xia.
Shen Xia Xia had doubts about these things, including her marriage to Lu Jingchen, the strange decoration in the bridal chamber, the people she saved, and even the money she earned.
It seemed as if there was some force secretly pulling her along.
And she was not aware of it at all, and was unconsciously following the deployment of the power behind her.
But when this feeling was expressed by someone, especially when that person was Judge Cui Jue, Shen Xia Xia felt a chill down her spine.
"So who is behind me?"
"Want to know?" Cui Jue curled the corners of his lips: "Don't take this magic weapon today, I will tell you."
She wondered how Cui Jue could be so kind as to give her these pointers behind her back.
"It's impossible not to." Shen Xia Xia smiled: "I always believe that my fate is determined by myself, not by God. Even though I study metaphysics and I can tell fortunes, I still believe that man can conquer nature. It just depends on how much power and ability a person has."
"And I believe I have enough power."
"More importantly, I need your magic weapon so badly. Even if I know the truth, it will be useless if I don't crack it."
"Ah," Cui Jue sighed and shook his head, "It seems that I have to shed blood today."
"That's good to know." Shen Xia Xia frowned: "Speaking of which, why can't I see my father-in-law no matter what?"
"Who knows? He's already an old ghost. He might have been dragged away to do a mission. How about I take you for a walk to find him? And then send you back?"
"Then come back after you've chosen your magic weapon." Shen Xia Xia was determined, and Cui Jue's persuasion was useless: "Magical weapons are more important."
Cui Jue had no choice but to take Shen Xia Xia to the magic weapon storehouse.
It's been a long time since we last saw each other. Cui Jue's arsenal of magical instruments has become much richer.
Shen Xiaxia's eyes lit up: "Where did you collect so much? Corrupt officials?"
"Shh! Don't talk nonsense." Cui Jue looked around vigilantly: "The investigation of corrupt officials is very strict now. I am a genuine honest official. There are spies everywhere now."
"These instruments are all from formal sources."
"Oh?" Shen Xia Xia became interested: "What is the formal way? Tell me."
Cui Jue coughed tactically: "You don't need to know this."
Cui Jue quickly asked Shen Xia Xia: "Pick what you want quickly, it's useless to talk about it."
Even if you see through it without saying it, you are still a good friend.
Shen Xia Xia began to choose magical weapons.
Shen Xia Xia searched through Cui Jue's library of magic weapons, but couldn't find any magic weapon that could break the Seven Killing Formation in the bridal chamber.
Even Cui Jue doesn't have them, so you can imagine how hard it is to find these magical weapons.
So far she only has one, and she got it by accident.
Shen Xia Xia selected five magical weapons.
Yunmengze Mirror, Taixu Magic Lamp, Nine-Turn Samsara Pearl, Earth Spirit Black Turtle Shell, and Longyin Flower Array Umbrella.
Cui Jue gnashed his teeth and said, "Xia Xia, you are so cruel. You always hit the nail on the head for me."
Shen Xia Xia chuckled: "If I don't let you bleed a little, how can you remember it?"
