Chapter 69: Paying Debts
He said that no one would save him, I was in a hurry, if he didn't save Aunt Yang, would we be able to save it?
"There are powerful ghosts that want to harm people, do you don't care about the ghosts?" I ran directly to Aunt Yang's ghost, "Follow me, I'll take you back." ”
Aunt Yang's ghost didn't move, just looked at me and shook her head, didn't speak, and had a resigned expression.
I was at a loss, Fu Jiu suddenly grabbed me by the collar and pulled me aside: "You don't have to mix with what I decide." ”
"Of course I have to take care of it, Aunt Yang is still alive, can't you ghosts affect the living?" Ever since I came here to live on campus, Aunt Yang has been here. She knew me and the third child, and she helped us a lot. Such a good person is going to be killed by a ghost, and I can't help but save her.
Fu Jiu looked at me, his eyes were terrifyingly cold, and his tone suddenly raised a few degrees: "Do you really think you are the savior? If you really have that ability, why can't you even save Wang Jing? ”
I glanced at Wang Jing beside me, this is a fact that I have always been unwilling to accept, I can't even save her. I thought I had to find a way to turn her back, but I couldn't do anything after so long, so I could only be at the mercy of my ghost daughter-in-law.
"You have always done things for a reason, and he didn't turn a corner for a while. You'd better settle the matter at hand. Wang Jing stood in front of me and looked at Fu Jiu.
Fu Jiu glanced at me, turned to look at the female ghost in white, and pointed to the female ghost in red next to him: "My client is her." It's been more than 500 years, and there should be a break between you. Today, even if you want to protect that half-male and female, you can't do it, he must die. ”
"I spent a lot of money to buy a piece of Tai Sui meat from you, and you said that you could live forever. You're right, but after I died once, I went from being a man to being a half-man and not a woman. Aunt Yang suddenly spoke, "Actually, I want to die for more than 500 years, but I can't die." ”
"Aunt Yang said that she has lived for more than 500 years, and she was a man before?" The third child secretly stabbed me with an elbow, looking unconvinced, but I know the effect of Tai Sui meat, living people can live forever by eating Tai Sui meat, but there is a price. Aunt Yang's price is to change from a man to a half-male and not a woman, so what is the price of Wang Jing and the third child?
The female ghost in white protected Aunt Yang, and the female ghost in red whined and cried in a low voice.
Fu Jiu sighed: "Miss Chu, you have been guarding here for five hundred years, five hundred years ago, when this was still a Qinglou, you met and fell in love with Yang Zhuangyuan in white clothes, and later Yang Zhuangyuan became a champion and married the lord of the dynasty, and when they tied the knot, you mixed in and killed the two of them, and then you also hanged yourself here." It's just that you didn't expect him to eat Tai Sui meat before, and he couldn't die. You think he betrayed you, but what about the county lord behind me? What's wrong with her liking him? She's been looking for him for five hundred years, and now you're going to protect him?"
"It turns out that my dream is real, it's his story. "I remembered the dreams I had. No wonder it feels so real, it turned out to be Aunt Yang when she was still a man.
The crying of the two female ghosts upset me.
Fu Jiu glanced at his watch: "Today is the last day." Twelve o'clock will be there soon. Fu Jiu threw over a dagger, "This dagger can collect people's souls, you go back to your body now, use this dagger to commit suicide, and you will be free." ”
Fu Jiuyi waved his hand, and the female ghost in red disappeared. Aunt Yang picked up the dagger and looked at the female ghost in white: "I thank you for protecting me." But this is my own debt, and what I owe you both, I give it back to you. ”
Aunt Yang floated out regardless of it. The female ghost in white cried even worse. We really can't hear ghosts crying. "I went back. I said, and Wang Jing and the third child also went back with me.
We passed by Aunt Yang's house, through the glass, she was uncovering the yellow rune paper, and she was still holding a dagger in her hand. I couldn't bear to look at her. She suddenly said to me, "Don't believe what they promised you. ”
I went upstairs without looking back. I heard the old song again, and it was even more sad and desolate. But what I have in my head is what Fu Jiu said.
I can't even save Wang Jing.
Aunt Yang owes a debt of 500 years and can be repaid today, so what about the debt I owe to Wang Jing?
I fumbled for the extra note in my pocket. When I opened it with my back to the third child, it was an address.
If Hades refuses to give it to me, then I'll find it myself.
Sleepless nights. After dawn, I left a note for the third child that I went out, and went out. I passed by Aunt Yang's house, just like I had never seen this person.
I followed the address and turned left and right to find a small abandoned three-story building. There had been a fire in this small building before, and it is said that fortunately no one was killed, but others said that it was unlucky, especially at night when you can hear ghosts crying and wolf howling.
The handrail of the staircase was charred black, and I climbed up cautiously, and when I passed the second floor, there was a family on the second floor that was still inhabited, and the door was pasted with a couplet. Suddenly, an old man came out of the house, and the old man still had burns on his face, and looked at me vigilantly: "Young man, what are you doing here?"
"I came to find a friend upstairs. I said casually. The old man suddenly closed the door and went back by himself, but it felt more like he had fled back.
Regardless of him, I followed the note and came to the door of the room on the third floor. I knocked on the door, but no one answered, so I reached out and pushed it, but the door was unlocked.
I originally thought that this old Taoist home would be posted with a room of talismans and things for practical purposes, but I didn't expect that my look was really surprising, and it was no different from ordinary people. This old man was sitting on the couch reading a book. "I knew you were going to see me today. ”
I'm not welcome, just go into the house and look at him. Before I could speak, he put down the book. This book scared me, it was the torn up "Yin and Yang Doctrine".
"It's well written, and there's a lot of rare stuff in it. Lao Dao looked at me, "Have you thought about it?"
Actually, I came to him on a whim, and I didn't really plan to make any deal with him, I couldn't trust him.
Seeing that I hesitated, Lao Dao didn't urge, but poured me a cup of tea: "Sit down and drink, I'm not in a hurry." ”
Half-convinced, I picked up the teacup and looked like a normal cup of tea. I sat on the sofa, just took a small sip, a fishy smell suddenly rushed to my brain, I couldn't help but spit out, it was actually blood!
"What are you giving me to drink?" I looked at Lao Dao vigilantly, but I didn't expect Lao Dao to be very calm: "It depends on whether you have eaten anything strange before." ”
I remembered the bugs that Xu Wei gave me to eat in the village before.
"That's my sincerity. If I wanted to hurt you, I wouldn't help you get rid of the mess in your body. Lao Dao handed me a tissue.
I took the tissue and wiped the blood, thinking to myself that one side is the underworld, and the other side is the old way, who I don't want to mess with.
"You can't decide, it's okay, I'm not short of time. You can think about it when you go back, and come back to me when you're done. I'll give you something though. Lao Dao took out a wooden sword that was not much different from a toothpick, "This thing can restrain all evils." Including your ghost daughter-in-law, understand?"
He said the three words of ghost daughter-in-law very seriously.
