Late at night, inn.

Mu Feng sat in the position of the shopkeeper, and he hoped that the ghost-like woman would come to the house again tonight.

Earlier, the shopkeeper finally said some speculation about the woman. This inn has been in existence for some years, and it has been open since the grandparents of the shopkeeper in the Qing Dynasty began to operate it.

"Mr. Mu, my inn has been open for a hundred years, I dare not say that Tong Su is not a bully, sometimes he is greedy for some small money, but he has never done anything to make money and kill people, the only murder we have here is ten years ago, when I just took over the inn from my father.

I still remember the appearance of that woman, she was very beautiful, she looked like she came from a large family, and she wore a married woman's hair in a bun, but the color of her clothes was a little old. In these years, the country is so chaotic, and there are all kinds of people in the middle of the family, there is nothing strange at all. She stayed in the inn for three days and said that she was waiting for someone, but no one came until late at night on the third day, and when Xiao Er brought her food on the fourth day, she was found dead in the room. ”

Mu Feng wrote down every detail of the shopkeeper's recollection, the room where the woman lived was the room where the female ghost who stayed yesterday lived, and even the time of the stay was very close, all at night. The shopkeeper can't remember the specific time when the woman entered the store that year, but he only remembers that it was also at night. Speaking of the cause of death, the woman died of poisoning. The current junior is not the one ten years ago, and I can't tell if they have the same face.

The shopkeeper didn't go home tonight, he hid in the inner room, and Mu Feng sat behind the counter, just to see if this female ghost would come again.

Yesterday, at eleven o'clock when there was a gap of three minutes, the woman knocked on the door of the store, 'Knock knock-', the shopkeeper in the room trembled, and there was a knock in the middle of the night.

Mu Feng didn't have much fear of love, he hoped that he appeared in this world because of this female ghost, so if he solved her, he would be able to leave.

As soon as he opened the door, Mu Feng saw a very beautiful woman, which was not much different from the description of the shopkeeper, the only difference was that this woman's eyes were very empty. Just take a closer look, and you can see that she has no shadow!

It's a female ghost! Yesterday, Xiao Er must have been fascinated by beauty and didn't find this very scary fact.

"I want a room, and that's the money." The woman's voice unconsciously carried a sad taste, which made her whole person look a little pitiful, this sadness was not pretended, but shrouded her whole ghost.

Mu Feng took the stack of fiat money, it was a very new stack of fiat money, Mu Feng glanced at them and saw that they were serial numbers, as if they had just been taken out of the bank. He had some doubts about the fiat currency, but he invited the female ghost into the room first.

"This way." Mu Feng led the way in front of him with half his body on his side, and when he turned around, he saw the half-pale shopkeeper poking his head in the middle of the room and making a look at him. Make no mistake, this is the woman who committed suicide back then.

Mu Feng sent the female ghost to the door of the room, the female ghost walked in, and when she wanted to close the door, Mu Feng suddenly used the trick of the trapped fairy chain and tied the female ghost to a strong one!

"Ahh

"What have you done, it's been ten years, why are you coming back to this place again!"

The female ghost was trapped in the fairy chain, and most of the ghost energy on her body was missing, and she had no strength to answer Mu Feng's question at all.

Mu Feng originally wanted to get rid of this ghost directly, but he had an extra heart, in case this ghost was not the root of his coming here, then he had to dig some clues from her first. Only then did he withdraw the trapped immortal chain, but he didn't expect to be so powerful with this pair of ghosts, and he could go to most of his life as soon as he touched his body.

Mu Feng reluctantly took out the wasted iron fan and slapped it a few times in the direction of the female ghost. Just like he thought, this fan can increase the ghost energy, so that the female ghost can condense the entity again. "Let's not waste time, you can be honest, and I can give you a relief."

"Relief?" The female ghost got up from the ground, she looked in a trance, and seemed to be blind to the pain that almost lost her soul just now, "I'm waiting for Zou Lang, he will definitely come, he will definitely come." ”

Mu Feng felt bad, this female ghost had no fear at all, could it be that her soul was missing, but she had been surviving with her last obsession. This kind of ghost who has lost his fear can only be regarded as a half-ghost, no more than the one he met in Zhang Ruru, who has a clear mind.

"I can help you find Zou Lang, what clues can you give me? What is Zou Lang's full name and how did you meet? ”

Mu Feng asked the question hopelessly, the memory of the half-ghost is incomplete, and he may not remember all of them. I didn't expect this female ghost to be obsessed with Zou Lang enough, and she still remembered this past.

"Zou Lang is my father-in-law, and we said that we would go away together and fly high. I was going to die, and if he hadn't helped me, I would have been taken home and hanged. ”

When Mu Feng saw the female ghost sink into his memory, there was joy on his face.

Decades ago, the old and the new alternated, at the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, the female ghost surnamed Wu, Wu Niang married into a solid family, this in-law was selected for a long time after the Wu family set for Wu Niang, and the fancy is the family style of that family, and will not take concubines lightly, so she married her daughter.

The third young master married by Wu Niang is a progressive young man, he is influenced by the new trend of Western thought, and he is very dissatisfied with the marriage arranged by his family.

Later, at a literary meeting, the third young master met a female college student, and the two quickly sparked, at this time Wu Niangzi was already pregnant, but the third young master wanted to divorce Wu Niangzi, so that she would not become a stumbling block to her progress and freedom.

That's right, that family doesn't have the family style of accepting concubines, but the third young master thinks that he has caught up with the right time, and he can divorce at this time, and he has the right to pursue his own happiness, instead of being bound by feudal shackles.

Wu Niangzi was raised according to the three from the four virtues since she was a child, and she didn't know what to do when she fell into this field, so she asked her mother's family for help, but her mother's family thought that it was her fault, and she couldn't take good care of the third young master, so that the third young master had an outside heart. And Wu Niangzi's own mother did not agree with her daughter to return to her parents' house, thinking that if Wu Niangzi was desperate, it would be better to hang herself with a rope, so that she would become a reputation for loyalty to the lady.

Wu Niangzi was disheartened, and the night she was about to hang herself, she happened to meet the burglary Zou thief. This is a thief who robs the rich and helps the poor, he didn't expect to encounter a hanging incident, this is a human life, but also a corpse with two lives, Zou Xiaothief rescued the hanged Wu Niangzi, and even took her out together. may really fulfill the old saying, every righteous person slaughters dogs, and most of them are scholars, and Zou Xiaothief actually took on the burden of taking care of Mrs. Wu.

The female ghost muttered, "The child did not survive, and when he was a year old he contracted typhoid fever and died." Zou Lang comforted me and said that he would always have children in the future. He has a good ability, I don't want him to be buried like this, I hope he can join the army and make his own career. We were going to go to the south to have a look, and that day he met an old friend, and said that there was a matter to ask him for help, and we agreed to meet in the inn, and he would come and pick me up in three days, but he never came, and I had to wait for him. ”

Never believe a ghost's one-sided words!

This is not only empirical, but also logical. Because their souls are damaged, there are many ghosts who have incomplete memories, so don't expect them to think clearly.

Mu Feng felt that he was really a calm and somewhat excessive person, and after listening to Wu Niang's few words but deep sad story, his first reaction was to find two loopholes, the first why Wu Niangzi committed suicide by taking poison, and the second was that it had been ten years, why was it haunted at this time.

"You're dead." Mu Feng said bluntly, "You committed suicide by taking poison, so you knew that Zou Lang would not come back, and you committed suicide when you lost your life expectations." So what is the reason for your reappearance in the world! Ten years have passed, and you just appeared at this time again sooner or later! ”

"Nope! Zou Lang won't leave me! When Wu Niangzi heard that Zou Lang would not come, she was a little crazy for a while.

Mu Feng didn't pity her at all, and gave Wu Niang a trick for trapping the immortal chain, and after making her virtual, he took out a small fan to replenish her ghost qi.

"I said I could help you find Zou Lang and make it clear who made you return to the world again! If you still have a shred of sanity, you should understand that if Zou Lang loves you and will not leave you behind, he will inevitably encounter an accident, so he did not come to look for you, I can help you figure out what happened inside, provided that you explain honestly. ”

Wu Niang was obviously a little confused, and after she muttered a lot of Zou Lang, she was finally able to sober up a little. "I committed suicide back then, because I knew he couldn't come back, he encountered a dangerous thing, his friend was from the rivers and lakes, that person was seriously injured, and he was going to pass on a message, Zou Lang took over this task, the place is not far from the suburbs of Xi'an, if he can come back safely, it is only a matter of five or six hours, but we have set a three-day plan, if he can't come back, let me leave alone.

I tried to persuade him not to go, but he couldn't help but because of the stakes. I actually knew in my heart that he would probably not be able to come back after this trip, so I bought arsenic in advance. Frost. The only thing that warms me in this life is Zou Lang, without him, my life is a joke, why continue. ”

Wu Niang suddenly became completely sober after remembering the cause of her death, "Although I am still unwilling to die, I have been wandering and unwilling to leave after death, I have always been in this inn, but no one can see me." Just a few days ago, I suddenly received some fiat currency, no one has burned paper money for me all these years, after getting these paper money, I can appear in the world again, I am obsessed with waiting for Zou Lang in the inn, so I will naturally come here to stay. ”

"You're saying someone burned fiat currency to you?" Mu Feng felt a little incredible, there are a lot of things to burn paper money for ghosts, but to burn the money for living people, it is a few years before the currency is worthless, and now people are not willing to use it at most for fear of depreciation, but a lot of fiat currency is burned, which is a new thing.

Mu Feng remembered that he saw a strange news from the collection of the Ying Rebellion family, saying that in the old days, someone burned a silver ticket to a dead relative, who would have thought that the silver ticket was really redeemed.

There is a saying that there are two kinds of so-called underworld money, the one that circulates in the underworld is the burned paper money, and the ghost in the yang world can use the money used by the burned living people.

It seems that this inference is true, because the female ghost got the fiat currency that can be used in the yang world, so she has the opportunity to appear in the yang world.

Mu Feng remembered that regulation, no wonder it was later stipulated that the renminbi could not be destroyed, this was to prevent the occurrence of haunting, right?

Mu Feng thought about it a little, but now the person who burned the fiat currency has become the key, "This fiat currency is specially burned for you?" ”

"Not really." Wu Niang has been wandering around the inn, but her activities are not limited to the inn, when she floated outside the city, she saw a person burning money, "That person is burned for lonely souls and wild ghosts, I can hear clearly, he said for everyone to use." Not only did I have other ghosts who also got fiat money, but not all ghosts who got money could appear in the world, and I couldn't say who could.

I should be leaving now, I can't see Zou Lang's soul in the past ten years, let alone his living person, I know that he should be more auspicious, maybe he has already gone to wait for me on the Nai He Bridge, I can't let him continue to wait. This gentleman, Zou Lang's full name is Zou Heng, I don't know what the news he was going to pass on back then, I only know that someone is going to do a very dangerous thing, which is despised by the people in the rivers and lakes and must be stopped. If the gentleman wants to investigate the matter, I only have these clues. ”

This will Wu Niang finally remembered the cause of her death, and let go of her obsession, without obsession, the ghost will not stay in the yang world, she will naturally leave.

Mu Feng looked at Wu Niang, who waved her sleeves and dissipated like this, not to mention the tightness in her chest.

"It's really miserable!" The shopkeeper who eavesdropped at the door sighed, and as soon as Mu Feng opened the door and saw that Xiao Er was also there, this person's eyes were even redder, obviously Wu Niang's story just now made them very sad.

"It is said that progress and freedom are all said to be ruined by many women over the years!" The shopkeeper seems to have watched a lot of such tragedies, and after listening to such a ghost story, he vomited bitterness, "I can't get used to those progressive young people, what do you want to love freely, he has the ability not to marry back then, he made people's stomachs bigger, and he also fell in love with female college students, saying that there is a common language, and you have the ability to resist early." If my boy dares to do this, he must break his legs! ”

"Shopkeeper, I understand why there are always more female ghosts than male ghosts." Xiao Er even analyzed, "There are too many women who have suffered in these years, and they all say that the feudal dynasty was not good in the past, and women had to follow three and four virtues at that time, but now in the Republic of China, it is not the same, they all abandon the old people when they have new people!" I don't know what happened to Zou Lang, Wu Niang didn't wait for him all these years. ”

"Okay, your child's hair hasn't grown, so you know this." When the shopkeeper saw that Mu Feng didn't speak, he realized that the posture of him and Xiao'er was a little strange, and both of them still maintained the movement of holding the door frame. The shopkeeper hurriedly said seriously, "Ahem, Mr. Mu is talented, he helped the shop solve the haunted matter, Mr.'s accommodation is free these days, count me as a cousin." ”

For some off-line shopkeepers and Xiao Er, Mu Feng didn't know what to say except shaking his head, he only sighed about Wu Niang's encounter, it is not easy to be a man, and it is even more difficult to be a woman. Perhaps he should be glad he was a man.

And people live in the world, no matter which era is good, it may not be the best era for them, but it is also the best era.

The current Wu Niang's experience is certainly worthy of sympathy, but Mu Feng is even more sympathetic to his own experience, he is unwilling to be trapped in this era, although there are not too many things that tie him up in the later generations, but he wants to finish college and help Dijiang find his head, he has not seen Xiao Huang born.

If he's missing, someone will still remember him, right? His grandfather will be sad, maybe the shopkeeper will help find someone immediately, his roommate will also worry about where he went, Dijiang will complain that the person who is not easy to wait for is gone, and Ying Yi will also say that he just went back to Hong Kong Island once, and the two didn't even say goodbye, so they couldn't meet again.

He's not a carefree person anymore, and he wants to go home.

Although he didn't know who the person who burned the paper money was, Mu Feng didn't believe that there would be no one here who could help.

In fact, since Mu Feng stepped out of science and entered a strange world, he has always had a question, when did the so-called ascension opportunity come from and what is the cause? Did the monks make an effort to find an alternative way out when the earth's aura was depleted?

Even so, not all people have disappeared, there will always be people who stay, just like Di Jiang, who have stayed on the earth for various reasons, or in the space of the Huaxia Realm.

And if there are really strange people, where are they when the country is in danger?

This is a question that further arose after Mufeng came to this era. In the later years, because of the ten years of literature. The reason for the revolution, as well as the fact that there was a lot of war before, more things have become a mystery, maybe coming to this era is for him to solve this puzzle.
