Chapter 20: The Female Ghost Lian Cui
A surprised voice came from outside the door: "You can see me! Who are you, why can you see me?"
Feng Shanyue opened the courtyard door, stood up, and said to the white-clothed female ghost outside the door: "It doesn't matter who I am, you just need to know that I can see you." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info Do you have something to do with me? Do you need to borrow my house?" Feng Shanyue still remembered the rule that the woman said, if a ghost wants to have a place to live, it can only borrow a human house.
The female ghost in white shook her head: "I already feel trembling within three feet of you, where do I dare to live in your house." ”
"How can this be?" Feng Shanyue looked down at herself, no different from usual.
"You have a strong evil aura in you, don't you know?"
Feng Shanyue shook her head, "Since you're not here to borrow it, then what are you looking for me?"
"I ...... I was originally a woman from Niejia Village, named Lian Cui, and after being killed by the village chief, I was locked by him with a soul locking spell, and I have not been able to live beyond my life. Can you help me?"
"What did you say? You were killed by the village chief? What is going on?"
Lian Cui sighed, "That Nie Lao Ba is actually a bastard with a beast's heart, after he fell in love with the young women in the village, he tried to frame them for fornicating with the people of the Ma Fang Kingdom next door, and imprisoned them in the wild boar forest to be dealt with by the village rules. What the villagers didn't know was that as soon as the women entered the wild boar forest, they were smuggled by him to the mountains behind the village and locked up for his sexual pleasure. The women were unbearable, and when they died, he threw their bones to feed the beasts, and their souls were locked with a soul-locking spell, making it impossible to reborn. ”
Feng Shanyue thought for a moment, "Then the women I saw near the village chief's house when I returned to the village just now are the poor women you said?"
Lian Cui nodded, "Yes." ”
"Isn't there any suspicion in your family? Just let Nie Laoba do whatever he wanted?"
Lian Cui shook her head sadly: "Our family can't hold their heads up in the village because of their daughter's fornication with foreign countries, where can they dare to doubt the words of the village chief?"
Feng Shanyue glared, "How can this be reasonable! This Nie Laoba is not only a village tyrant, but also a murderer!"
"Can you help me?"
"How do you want me to help you?"
"On the edge of the fire pond in the village chief's house, a bronze mirror is buried, and our souls are locked in it, suffering from smoke and fire day and night, as long as you can dig out this bronze mirror, and soak the bronze mirror in a clean tile basin with a piece of dew, rain, and spring water for three days and three nights, and the soul lock spell will be unraveled. Our souls are set free. ”
Feng Shanyue was stunned for a moment, a little embarrassed, "Do you want to go to the village chief's house?" The last thing she wants to deal with now is the village chief's house.
Lian Cui hurriedly said: "Actually, this is also good for you, if you can reveal the true face of the village chief, their family will naturally not be able to continue to force you to marry, then your crisis will not be resolved?"
Feng Shanyue smiled: "You will help me make up my mind, okay, I promised to help you! By the way, you said that the village chief hid these women in the mountains, I don't know if there are any of them now?"
"There should be no more, there have been too many women in the village who have been imprisoned in the wild boar forest in the past few years, and there is some gossip in the village, and Nie Laoba has also restrained a little. ”
"Do you remember where you were held?"
"The mountains and forests are too dense, and I only remember that there was a very tall kapok tree at the entrance of the cave, and there was no such tree around, so I remember it very clearly. ”
Feng Shanyue nodded, "I remember, you go back first, I will try to save you." ”
Lian Cui left gratefully, Feng Shanyue closed the courtyard door and returned to the house, it was dark everywhere, she could only grope for a simple wash, and then lay down on the bed.
"Next time, I must buy a little oil for lighting, otherwise how can I live in this dark and black!" Feng Shanyue, who was used to modern life, couldn't bear this night without light.
Before going to bed, Feng Shanyue decided to ask Wang Dashan to take her into the mountain tomorrow, if she could find evidence that the village chief had killed the woman in the village, then she didn't have to worry about Qian Guihua to force her relatives.
The next day, Feng Shanyue went to Wang's house to ask Wang Dashan for help, Wang Dashan was originally going to go into the mountains to hunt, but now he just brought one more person, so naturally he had no objections. He didn't ask Feng Shanyue what he was going to do when he entered the mountain, he picked up his bow and arrows and took the lead to walk up the mountain.
When passing by the village chief's house, Qian Guihua happened to be washing clothes in front of the house, and saw that Feng Shanyue and Wang Dashan were together, and heard Nie Panshi say that the two of them went to the market together yesterday, so he said sourly: "Yo! March, you and Dashan went to the market together, and went into the mountain together, this relationship is good enough!"
Wang Dashan was stupid and didn't know how to reply, Feng Shanyue said lightly: "The folks in the big hometown, just take care of each other, it's better than being affectionate on the surface, but actually having bad intentions." ”
Qian Guihua's eyes were cold, she threw her clothes on the ground, and walked to the house with a "hum". Feng Shanyue turned to leave, and suddenly felt a cold chill coming from behind, she turned around and saw a man of medium height, in his thirties, and a man with gloomy eyes was standing at the door looking at her.
Wang Dashan called out "Uncle Nie", and Feng Shanyue knew that this was Nie Laoba, the village chief of Niejia Village. Nie Laoba's appearance is actually delicate, he saw the two of them looking back at him, and immediately smiled on his face, and said gently: "Big mountain, there are many beasts in the mountain, don't go deep, come back early." ”
"Okay, Uncle Eight. ”
It wasn't until she entered the mountain that Feng Shanyue asked Wang Dashan: "Brother Dashan, do you know where there is a big kapok tree?"
As his name suggests, Wang Dashan knows the situation in the mountains very well. He thought for a while and said, "This Cloud Piercing Mountain is a hundred miles in circumference, but there are very few kapok trees. All I know is that there is a relatively large kapok tree at the top of the South Peak. ”
"Have you been there? Is there a cave there?"
"I don't know about this, I've only seen it from afar, but I haven't approached it, the terrain over there is not easy to walk, and I don't usually go there when I'm hunting. How do you know about this place?"
Feng Shanyue made up a reason: "My mother told me that she had picked a rare herb there, which can bring the dead back to life, called ginseng. I'm going to look for it, and if I can find it, I'll be able to sell it for money, and we'll split it up when the time comes. ”
Wang Dashan shook his head: "Don't divide it, that's the secret your mother told you, you just have to do it yourself." I'll accompany you to the top of the South Peak. ”
The two of them talked all the way to the top of the southern peak, and Wang Dashan beat the grass with a wooden stick to drive away the earth dragon, that is, the snake, and at the same time kept an eye on the surrounding movements to avoid being attacked by wild beasts. Feng Shanyue was embarrassed to cope with the rugged mountain roads and dense grass.
After half a day of difficult climbing, Wang Dashan finally stopped, he pointed to the top of the mountain and said, "Look, the south peak is about to arrive!"
Feng Shanyue was pulling a rattan through a short section of cliff, and suddenly heard this, and raised her head happily: "Really?" Who knew that the foot suddenly slipped, Feng Shanyue's center of gravity was out of control for a while, and the rattan "snapped" off, and the whole person fell all the way down the mountain wall.
