Three years ago, a small town, a small town divided into two halves, half of which was crowded with people, and the other half was almost empty. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoSo the part with more people is called the living half by the people in the town, and the less crowded part is called the dead half.
There is a restaurant in the middle of life, the rich people in the town are drunk and dreaming here, singing and dancing, the restaurant has several floors, and there are kabuko in the center of the ground floor, and there is a platform on the side of the kabuko, which is generally reserved for storytellers, and the difference from other places is that there are many more storytellers here than people watching song and dance performances.
On this day and night, the restaurant is still bustling and lively.
The sound of the piano is leisurely, a young man dressed in aqua blue clothes is sitting on the storytelling table, stroking the piano in his hand, the sound of the piano is leisurely, and the people in the audience are very intoxicated.
Someone asked, "Who is he?"
"You don't know who he is? Do you know why this restaurant doesn't have a name? ”
"I know this, this restaurant has no other name, it is called 'restaurant', it is the name given by the saint today, the only one in the entire dynasty, although it is far away from the king, but every festival, there will be dignitaries and nobles here."
The man asked, "You haven't answered my question, who is he?"
"He's just a friend of the boss."
"And who is the owner of this restaurant?"
The others laughed and said: "You'd better not ask, because according to legend, this boss is a girl, and he has something to do with the Marquis of Dingcheng in the court, although you and I have some wealth, we are helpless in front of them."
Hearing his words, the people around him agreed.
At this time, a man in a big black robe walked in outside the door, he didn't say anything, asked for two plates of side dishes, a pot of wine, and found a secluded place to sit down and eat slowly.
The sound of the piano did not stop, and a large group of people hurriedly came in outside the door, some were Taoist priests, some were still holding magic weapons, and some were monks.
Their arrival made the people who were originally relaxed a little nervous, and they also ordered food and sat there, and their expressions were very flustered.
Then they were asked, "What are you going to do here?"
One of the Taoist priests replied, "Don't you know, someone over there sent a lot of money to exorcise ghosts this time, and if it weren't for the heavy money, we wouldn't want to take this job."
At the mention of the dead half, the people in the whole restaurant began to make noise. Suddenly, the sound of the piano stopped, and people were a little surprised, only to see the young man who looked like a scholar, put away the piano, put it on his back, and slowly left from behind.
The black-robed man also got up to leave, when several big men came out of the back room and surrounded him.
The man let out a deep voice and said, "You think you can stop me?"
The big men were a little disdainful, "It is impossible for you to get close to our master with your bones." With that, a big man swung his fist directly at him.
The black-robed man dodged and landed on the platform, and then said with a smile: "Didn't you expect to kill again here?" Then he took off his black robe, and a pair of large black wings spread out on his back. Countless black feathers shoot out from the black wings, and the speed is extremely fast. Everyone didn't react, and at this moment, several big men all fell to the ground.
Everyone else present broke out in a cold sweat, and there was only one thought in their hearts: Fortunately, it wasn't that we had a grudge against him, and at that speed just now, no one present could hide.
The black-robed man's face was calm, his eyes looked to the side, on a corner table, a pile of black feathers, inconspicuous, but enough to attract the attention of the black-robed man, next to this table, a man in a coarse cloth coat, his hair covering his face, got up and hurriedly left here.
The black-robed man stretched out his hand, and the black robe on the ground flew into his hand, and the moment he put on the black robe, his person disappeared without a trace. The exorcists were so frightened that none of them were talking, just eating.
Half dead, an abandoned house, this house is very big, and most of it is almost half dead and half old. The wind was gusting, there were only a few people on the street, and the rest of the residences were closed. The reason why it is an old man is because there is a rumor that there is a female ghost in the abandoned house, who is extremely fierce and sucks the blood of strong men, so only the old man will come to fight after this.
The two old men walked past the door of the abandoned mansion and peeked in, and the eerie feeling frightened them did not dare to look at it again, and one of them urged the other and said, "Go quickly, and go back to rest when you are done."
The other nodded in agreement, and the two wanted to speed up their pace to leave, when they suddenly saw a man in a coarse cloth robe walking towards the house, his pace was slow, without a trace of fear, and when he was about to reach the door, his head was tilted to this side, and the three of them happened to look at each other.
The two old men were a little surprised, and one of them asked, "Young man, what are you going to do here?" Why don't you go back to sleep at night, why are you here? ”
The man stopped, and the evening breeze blew, blowing his messy hair, revealing his face, and the two old men took advantage of the dim moonlight, and a face that was burned and broken by the fire appeared in front of their eyes, and the two of them sat down on the ground with their legs weak, and kept shouting: "Ghost! Hell yes! ”
The man did not make a fuss, but jumped into the house. The two old men themselves had never seen much of the world, and now when they saw this kind of person, they mistakenly thought they were ghosts, and they didn't care about their weak legs, just like no one else, they got up and ran.
In the abandoned house, except for the dust, nothing else has changed, and judging from the layout of the house, this family should have been more particular before. The man ignored the furnishings and walked straight to the backyard.
As soon as he stepped into the round door of the backyard, several yin qi swept in, and the strange thing was that these yin qi only passed through him, but he didn't dare to approach him. He went on as he had always done, and in this way he came to an artificial lake, and there was a bridge on it, and it was wide, and on the opposite side of the bridge were several houses, the largest of which was the largest.
Of course, men have no interest in these things. Instead, he stopped and looked at the bridge, and in the middle of the bridge, at some point, stood a girl in red, with long hair and a shawl, but she couldn't see her face clearly, her body leaned on the side of the bridge, looking at the lake.
The surface of the water, which had been calm just a moment ago, was now rippling with a little bit of ripples, and because the water surface was clear, a few glowing things could now be seen swimming around on the surface of the water.
"It's the first time I've seen a fish that glows." The man spoke.
The woman didn't open her mouth, but a voice came from her: "You are also here for me?"
"There are a lot of exorcists gathered over there, saying that they are here to deal with you, so you better get out of here quickly."
The girl let out a laugh, "You think I'm going to be cleaned up by a bunch of minions?" ”
The wind blew the girl's hair, the girl closed her eyes, and the fish in the water were swimming calmly, but suddenly they all jumped out of the water as if they were crazy, turned directly into soul blades, and flew towards the man.
The man raised his hands lightly, and with the power of both hands, he waved his palms and flicked these flying soul blades around, and those soul blades were bounced away from the moment they were turned into nothing.
The girl slowly opened her eyes, her face twitched a little, and she said in a voice: "You can resist my soul blade, you are not an ordinary person, who are you?"
The man didn't speak, just looked at her quietly. The girl's eyes became more and more indifferent, and the resentment on her body rose sky-high, and she made a cold voice, "It doesn't matter if you don't say it, because you will disappear from this world today." ”
"If you can do it, I'd be happy to be a ghost." The man's tone was very kind, but his attitude deepened the resentment in the girl.
Although the girl was full of resentment, she wondered in her heart: I don't feel the existence of any power in him, is he really lucky to resist my attack? Or does he have special powers?
Collecting her grievances, the girl's body floated close to the man, and said in a voice: "I understand, I understand your kindness, I have been here for a long time, and I don't want to go anywhere." After saying that, a smile appeared on her face.
Her smile was so far-fetched, the man frowned, and said, "This is not for you."
The girl's expression was shocked, and she quickly returned to her previous expression, turned around and waved her sleeves, the red dress on her body completely covered her figure, and a voice came out: "I'm tired, you go, you are not welcome here." After that, the whole house became calm again, and there was no trace of the girl.
The man sighed, and didn't leave, just walked to the screen of the main entrance, sat down, he closed his eyes, and after a while, the ground around him began to tremble, and a ripple-shaped formation appeared around the man, and the ground was full of light, and behind the door, the girl watched the man's every move in the dark.
On the second day, in the restaurant where I was born, many people were discussing. "Have you heard? There was light in the ruined house last night. "What? Light? Isn't that the unclean stuff in there coming out and walking around again? "No, it won't! Will it come out to suck people's blood? Shouldn't we go and ask for a few runes? ”
All kinds of voices continued, and at this time, on the flat ground of the square where the living half was born, a loud voice came: "Folks! It's all troublesome! The voice was so loud that almost half of the people could hear it, and soon many people gathered in the field.
The person who spoke was an old official who was born and half here, surnamed Li, who usually treats people kindly, so the people here generally call him Lao Li, this Lao Li is shouting, and there are some monks under the platform who meditate there to help him transmit his voice.
The people below all gathered, and at this time someone began to ask, "Old Master Li! What did you call us all here? ”
Lao Li coughed lightly a few times and said, "Fellow villagers, do you remember the female ghost over there?"
Hearing the word female ghost, the people were in an uproar.
