Chapter 1: Ghost Things

Fu Chengye has become a ghost, even he himself doesn't know what is going on, he only knows that after waking up, he has been standing under an old locust tree in the wilderness, unable to move.

No matter how many people passed under this old locust tree every day, or how many wild beasts roamed the wilderness every night, Fu Chengye couldn't move and couldn't communicate with any living beings.

Only the yin qi at night every day makes Fu Chengye feel a little relieved, as for everything that comes and goes every day, Fu Chengye is like watching a silent movie, and he can't fit in at all.

It wasn't until one day, when a person hanged himself on the old locust tree, and a translucent shadow flew out of his body and turned into a black shadow under the fusion of yin qi, Fu Chengye realized that he had been dead for a long time.

It's just that Fu Chengye still doesn't understand what kind of world he is in, and why he still looks like an ancient civilization but has so much research on dark forces.

As time passed, Fu Chengye, who had never been able to contact anyone in this world, slowly regarded everything in front of him as a movie, except for necessary modifications and absorbing yin qi every day, he was still observing the changes in this world, the development of human beings, and the formation of demon beasts, so as to relieve the loneliness caused by standing alone under the old locust tree.

In this way, a full hundred years have passed, and in a month of cold starry night, Fu Chengye can finally get in touch with the people of this world.

What made Fu Chengye open his mouth was the paper money that was burned to ashes, and this paper money turned out to be burned to him by a middle-aged uncle who looked to be in his forties not far away.

Watching the ashes of paper money slowly turn into copper coins in his hand, the silent movie in Fu Chengye's eyes also became sound.

The middle-aged uncle's cries also moved Fu Chengye.

"All the ghosts and gods, please come and get the money, I'm going to die, please show me the way, so that I can enter the Yin Si ...... smoothly"

"All kinds of ghosts and gods, please come and get the money, get the money and help me bring a message to the ancestors of my Xiao family, my Xiao family is considered to be the last, no one worships the three festivals and five ceremonies every year, please make plans early......

"All kinds of ghosts and gods, please come and get the money......"

In this call, Fu Chengye had more and more copper coins in his hands, and when he saw that the middle-aged uncle had burned all the paper money, and when he untied his belt and wanted to hang himself on the old locust tree, Fu Chengye suddenly spoke.

"I said, 'Why do you seek death?'

The middle-aged uncle was about to hang himself on the old locust tree, but as soon as Fu Chengye said this, he was directly frightened and sat on the ground.

Looking at the middle-aged uncle's panicked appearance, Fu Chengye couldn't help but smile, at this time, the middle-aged uncle seemed to have discovered Fu Chengye's location, he pointed to Fu Chengye and said, "You old ghost, why do you want to scare me if you have nothing to do." ”

Fu Chengye was stunned for a moment, and asked in surprise, "Can you see me?" ”

Without waiting for the middle-aged uncle to answer, Fu Chengye asked one after another, "Wait, you know that I am a ghost, and you are not afraid of me?" ”

"What are ghosts to be afraid of?" The middle-aged uncle stood up and said nonchalantly, "Isn't it just a ghost, who hasn't seen it when worshipping ancestors on three festivals and five ceremonies every year, but you, a lonely ghost, have nothing to do when you come out to scare people, it's nothing to scare mortals like me, if you meet a martial artist, you can look good." ”

The middle-aged uncle's words were casual, but Fu Chengye's eyes froze, he understood that the so-called martial arts official family was the high-end combat power of this world, and at the same time, Fu Chengye understood that people and ghosts in this world can communicate.

Fu Chengye smiled and threw the dozens of copper coins he had just received in his hand, "I've been here for so many years, this is my first income." ”

"It's no wonder." The middle-aged uncle sighed, "It seems that your life is even more miserable than mine, you haven't even left any money to buy the road, you have been staying around here all these years and can't leave." ”

Fu Chengye didn't answer, but asked rhetorically, "What about you, looking for death here, leaving yourself money to buy roads?" ”

"Of course." The middle-aged uncle took out three copper coins from his pocket, "Wait a minute, I'll put it in my mouth, this is yin money, yin and yang are universal, just now I turned paper money again, so that the nearby ghosts are satisfied, this road is open, I can go back to the ancestral grave of the family by the way." It's just that I pity my son, and I won't even be able to enter the ancestral grave in the future......

The middle-aged uncle cried as he spoke, and Fu Chengye also took the opportunity to ask a few words, and learned some things from it.

The middle-aged uncle in front of him is surnamed An, is a farmer in the nearby Shili Town, and his family is not a big family in Shili Town, three years ago, the family went to the water and burned the belongings and his father to ashes, in order to let his father bury in the ancestral grave to accept the protection of An's incense, he sold his own son into the Xu family in Yuan'an City as a housekeeper.

At that time, it was said that he would take five taels of silver to redeem it after three years, otherwise he would be sold into the Xu family forever.

In the past three years, Old Man An has also fought his life, except for the first year when Fuling returned to his hometown for half a year, he usually works in the fields, and he also goes to work in his spare time, and finally got five taels of silver before the deadline.

Originally, I wanted to take my son home, work hard for another two years, and build the house that burned down that year, but I didn't expect that the five taels of silver that I had just entered the city were stolen quickly.

At this time, the old man lost hope of living, and exchanged more than 30 yuan that was not stolen for three yin coins and some paper money, and went out of the city to find a place to hang the southeast branch.

Unexpectedly, at the last moment, Old Man An actually met Fu Chengye, who had not suddenly integrated into this world, and the two talked like this.

During the conversation, Fu Chengye learned that the world in front of him was simply a world where ghosts and gods lived.

From the day everyone is born, the first thing they see is definitely not their parents, but the ghosts of the ancestors in the family.

The incense paper money offered by the three festivals and five ceremonies every year is not empty, the incense is the food of the ghosts, only by taking incense regularly, can the ghosts not lose their minds, and the paper money is used to rent the underworld, only the underworld has an ancestral cemetery, those ghosts have a place to live, and will not dissipate due to the loss of power.

As for lonely ghosts like Fu Chengye, it is not uncommon, but they often become powerful ghosts in the wild, living on blood and food, and in the end they can only end up with life and death.

As for things like gods, Old Man An doesn't know much, but it's a little certain, that is, gods are incarnated after the death of high-grade humans, because in Yuan'an City not far away, Chenghuang was the first R county commander of Yuan'an City after his death.

When Fu Chengye was studying the rules of this world, Old Man An also vomited out all the depression in his heart, and his mood became much better, he patted his clothes, and walked to the edge of the old locust tree, ready to hang himself up again.

When Old Man An was about to kick off the stepping stones, Fu Chengye suddenly asked again, "Old Man An, do you want to redeem your son." ”

Fu Chengye's sentence almost didn't make Old Man An hold his breath, and it took him a long time before he reacted, pointed at Fu Chengye and said, "You little ghost is okay to scare me, I will be scared to death by you if I don't hang myself." ”

Fu Chengye showed a strange smile on his face, "I just remembered this, and you should thank me for it, if I hadn't stopped you just now, if you died, your son would really not be able to redeem it." ”

Old man An looked at Fu Chengye for a long time, and after making sure that Fu Chengye didn't lie to him, he knelt directly on the ground, "Little brother, I beg you, you must save our family, I am such a son, as long as you save my son, even if I make you a cow and a horse." ”

"I don't need you to be a cow or a horse." Fu Chengye threw away the copper money in his hand, "How did it happen this time, you help me sell all the paper money in Yuan'an City to me." ”

Old man An was also stunned when he heard this, "All the paper money? ”

"That's right." Fu Chengye nodded affirmatively, "You have also seen that I am a lonely ghost, how can I do it without any money in my hand." ”

Old man An understood Fu Chengye's meaning as soon as he heard it, but he really can't blame Fu Chengye, because no matter what the hell it is, even if he can incarnate into a human body and enter the city, he can't go to the white shop to buy paper money by himself, this is an iron rule set by heaven and earth, and there is nothing to talk about.

Although he had just integrated into this world, Fu Chengye had already felt a few untouchable rules, and in order to have money in his hands and not panic, he had to take a detour and find a way to avoid all this.

After all, Fu Chengye is saving Old Man An's whole family, this is the money given by Old Man An, even if Fu Chengye asks more, it will not conflict with the laws of heaven and earth.

Old man An only hesitated for a moment, nodded and agreed.

Seeing that Old Man An was like this, Fu Chengye did not delay, and directly pointed to the east of the old locust tree and said, "You go thirty-three steps forward here, there is a big stone, dig down about one foot and two inches along the stone, you can see ten taels of silver, take five taels to redeem your son, five taels should be able to buy back the paper money of the whole city." ”

When Old Man An heard this, he didn't care about talking to Fu Chengye, and strode towards the east, Fu Chengye leaned his back against the old locust tree, while watching Old Man An's actions, while thinking about how the thief who often robbed and killed people in the wilderness would have reacted if he found that the broken silver he had hidden was taken away.

Soon the old man An found the broken silver that Fu Chengye said, he quickly returned to Fu Chengye, put down the three yin coins, and kowtowed heavily.

"I don't know if Engong can tell me his name, I, An Daquan, redeemed my son, and I must come to bring incense to thank Engong."

Fu Chengye was about to say his name, but when the words came to his mouth, he changed direction, "It's good if you have this heart, redeem your son, call Engong three times in a row, and I will naturally collect the debt." ”
