"What are you doing at the door?"

The fat shopkeeper only heard a female voice outside the door, and before he could even hear the words clearly, he was already so frightened that his knees bent, and he knelt on the ground and bowed, muttering repeatedly in his mouth: "There is a debtor who is wronged, and there is a debtor who is wronged......"

Qingfeng moved his shoulders, which were pinched by the fat shopkeeper, and said angrily to the person who pushed him just now: "Gongsun Zero! If I hadn't guarded this door, you'd have slept on the side of the road!" Hum! After Qing Feng lost his eyes, he turned around and saw the fat shopkeeper kneeling down in fear, and it took a lot of effort to pull him up.

"There is a debtor who is wronged! There is a debtor and a debtor! Although the fat shopkeeper got up, he still trembled and folded his hands in silence.

"Okay, uncle, that's a wicked girl, not a ghost." Qingfeng shook the fat shopkeeper, glared at Gongsun Ling again, and said, "Look at the old man, you can be careful that he will kick you out in a while!" Hum! ”

"How could I scare him, just now I just pushed him so gently, who knew that you would fall out." Gongsun Ling pouted, just now she saw Qingfeng blocking the door in a funny and ridiculous pose, thinking that he was naughty again, so she pushed him.

"Uncle, don't listen to his nonsense, I'm not an evil ghost, let alone a bad girl." Gongsun Ling hurriedly walked to the fat shopkeeper, shook his palms, and explained with a smile.

Chu Boyu looked at the noisy scene of the two children, shook his head, and couldn't help but glance back at the outside of the house, so he hurriedly entered the house and said, "Okay, Qingfeng Xiaoling, don't scare the store." Chu Boyu paused, looked at the half figure hiding behind Qingfeng, and said politely: "Don't be afraid, the shopkeeper, the four of us brothers and sisters are just passing by and want to stay in the hotel, not robbers and bandits." ”

The fat shopkeeper eased his nerves, sighed, and glanced at these strangers with a pair of small eyes, and when he saw Guiyun still standing outside the door, he immediately stepped forward to pull him into the house, and then closed his eyes in fear and quickly closed the door, and muttered in his mouth: "There is a debtor who is wronged, and there is a debtor......

"Shopkeeper, why are you so panicked?" Chu Boyu stepped forward to assist the fat shopkeeper to put the door bolt on and put it away, and saw that he was still reading that sentence in shock, and his heart was not as Guiyun said, there are powerful ghosts rampant!

The fat shopkeeper didn't answer, and only turned around after confirming that the deadbolt had been inserted, stared at these well-dressed and extraordinary-looking outsiders, and made a slight judgment with his eyes that read countless people, and then he put away some panicked looks, and said thoughtfully: "I see a few well-dressed people, if you want to live in a hotel, you can just do it." ”

After the fat shopkeeper finished speaking, he glanced at the four people again, pretended to be calm and walked to the back of the account table, took out an old black wood abacus, put his fat palm up, and then looked at the four people: "How many rooms do the guest officers want?" ”

"Four rooms, of course." Qingfeng twisted his waist and knocked on the account table, approached the fat shopkeeper and said, "Uncle, you inn ghost won't come in, right?" ”

"Young man, don't talk nonsense!" The fat shopkeeper's hand on the abacus was obviously shaking, "I don't think a few of us people from Yuzhou, why did they first come here, and as soon as they opened their mouths, they said that we have ghosts in Mojiawu!" It's the dead of night, don't really provoke something unclean. ”

"It's no wonder that the shopkeeper is naughty, my younger brother loves to be mischievous." Chu Boyu walked to the account table, patted Qingfeng's shoulder, and looked at the inn casually, it was indeed simple and old, but it was excellent to be able to live in such an inn in such a village.

"How can I talk nonsense, your old man wasn't scared half to death just now, why is this to blame us." Qingfeng shrugged, moved to the nearest table and chair as he spoke, pulled a bench and sat down, and lay down on the table with a limp body.

Seeing this, Gongsun Ling immediately strode forward and sat on a bench with Qingfeng, and learned according to his appearance.

The fat shopkeeper was choked by Qingfeng, and he made an angry look and said, "You outsiders, I won't do this business if you talk nonsense." ”

"There are ghosts here." Guiyun, who was standing at the door, said lightly.

"Na, that's what the man said, if you want to catch up, drive him away, I have to live here tonight." Qingfeng didn't raise his head, but just stretched out his hand and pointed indiscriminately, and his mouth was tired to death.

"If the shopkeeper has something to say, you might as well say it directly." Chu Boyu calmed down and deliberately displayed a smile, intending to calm the panicked mood of the fat shopkeeper.

The fat shopkeeper frowned, looked up and down the frail young man in front of him who seemed to be recovering from a serious illness, and then glanced at the cold face at the door, and he directly ignored the two paralyzed teenagers next to him.

Chu Boyu continued: "At this time, but when it is not a war, but the doors and windows of every house in the village are covered, if there is really an evil thing that spoils the peace of the village, the shopkeeper may wish to speak bluntly, maybe we can help one or two." "Evil thing, Chu Boyu smiled bitterly in his heart, isn't he also this evil thing!

"Childe, you can really ......" The fat shopkeeper's little eyes lit up, and he stopped talking, as if he didn't believe much in the person who looked like a sick scholar in front of him, shook his head and said: "Childe, don't go to this troubled water, I'll take you to rest, and you will leave as soon as it dawns tomorrow morning." ”

Qingfeng stood up impatiently when he heard this, slapped the table, and blew a big word. Gongsun Ling also came over when he heard this, although he didn't know how powerful the ghost in Guiyun's mouth was, but seeing that Chu Boyu seemed to be wholeheartedly helping, he also persuaded him.

In fact, when the fat shopkeeper heard Qingfeng bluntly say that there were ghosts, he began to calculate in his heart, and secretly paid attention to these people, but he was just pretending to probe, and he wanted to stop talking. Now that I heard Qingfeng's description, I met the masters, and I saw these people so old-fashioned and warm-hearted, so I took off my composure and told the matter.

It all started one night four days ago: on that day, Mo Laoqi, a merchant in the village, went to Yuzhou City to buy some groceries for trading, perhaps because he was delayed by an accident on the road, and he did not return to Mojiawu until after sunset, that is, when it was close to the time of the war. Just as he stepped on the stone bridge at the entrance of the village, a faint green light and shadow suddenly appeared in the river, and in an instant, he was sucked into the bottom of the river.

This scene happened to be seen by Mo Liangzi, who lived not far from the stone bridge at the entrance of the village, and the green light was bright at that time, and he clearly saw that it was Mo Laoqi's figure. It's just that at this moment, he thought it was his own dazzle, but he went back to the house and described it to his family, and everyone didn't care when they heard it. It wasn't until the early morning of the second day, when Mo Liangzi saw Mo Laoqi's body that was torn beyond recognition on the edge of the stone bridge, that he knew the truth of what he saw last night, and then he spread the story of the green light of the stone bridge the night before.

At first, the villagers didn't believe that it was an evil thing, Mo Laoqi's family immediately went to the city to report to the official, and the officials came, but the official messenger only took a few glances, and then fled in fright. And by the early morning of yesterday, Mo Liangzi, like Mo Laoqi, was lying on the edge of the stone bridge beyond recognition.

"The bottom of the Lishui River is not very deep, and there are children playing in the water on hot days in summer, but I have never heard of any drowning deaths." The fat shopkeeper shook his head, and the flesh on his face trembled. "But two people died in a row, and the village exploded all at once, making people panic, if there are really water ghosts eating people, then how can you live your life, who doesn't worry about the next one, it's their turn."

Chu Boyu frowned, his face was extremely ugly, he couldn't figure out what kind of evil thing it was, if he hadn't experienced life and death, and had encountered those strange things before, I am afraid that when he heard this story, he would be so scared that he wanted to find a hidden place to hide.

Qingfeng remembered that he had just boasted, if he was heard by that man-eating ghost, I don't know if he would find him directly! The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became, so he dragged Chu Boyu's arm and looked around, and when he saw Guiyun, he felt inexplicably relieved.

The fat shopkeeper continued: "At this time, everyone had to believe that it was an evil thing, so the big guy hurriedly raised some money, and hurriedly went to the nearby Taoist temple to invite the Taoist chief to exorcise evil spirits. Without further ado, he chose to set up an altar in a place not far from the stone bridge, and the time was set at the time when Mo Laoqi was killed. But this ritual has not been done yet, even the Dao Master who exorcises evil spirits has been eaten by the green light, and this time there are no bones left. ”

"That thing is so powerful?" Gongsun Zero sighed.

"But no, at that time, some brave villagers accompanied the practice, and half of the frightened souls were lost, which can be regarded as picking up a life. Now, even if we want to move, we don't know where to go for a while. After the fat shopkeeper finished speaking, he looked at the four people in the room pleadingly.

At this moment, the whining wind sounded outside the house, and the doors and windows seemed to be loosened and babbling by the wind.
