"Another banquet? What to do? Is it real or fake? When I went to discuss with Lao Zheng with this idea, Lao Zheng was also stunned and asked me.

"If you want to do it, you can do it! Just make up for your regrets that day and tie the knot completely! I turned my head to Xiao Zheng and said, "You can rest assured, I guarantee that your couple will enter the cave room smoothly tonight!" ”

Due to the hasty preparations, the old Zheng family could only simply prepare five tables of banquets, and the guests invited were also some close relatives. But even so, there are still people who don't want to come, seeing that there are not even enough people at the five tables. At this time, some brave young people in the village also came to join in the fun, saying that they wanted to see how we caught ghosts. So Lao Zheng, after our consent, invited them to also eat and drink at the table and make up the numbers.

Of course, the mustache inevitably has to explain: "No matter what happens for a while, don't disturb us, and don't look at us deliberately, just as we don't exist, eat your wine in peace!" ”

The banquet was still scheduled for 8 o'clock. The wedding arrangements of the previous days are basically still there, and the couplets and lanterns are all new. The bride, Zhang Xiaomei, put on a red bridal outfit again and came out to toast with the groom's official Xiao Zheng. In addition, as soon as the firecrackers are set off and the wine order is made, the atmosphere that should be there when drinking the wine will immediately come out again.

Mustache and I also mingled into the crowd for a feast, but we repeatedly declined the kindness of the other guests at the table, and we didn't drink at all. As I ate, I kept an eye on the talisman paper I had hidden in my hand. It was a primary-level warning charm, connected to the ghost trap that had been placed around the Zheng family in advance. I learned it all from the remnants of the spell myself, and this was the first time I had used it in practice.

The principle of this set of runes is very simple, that is, to add an extra flying talisman to several ghost traps, once a trap is triggered, this warning talisman in my hand will light up a dot accordingly, showing the location of the place. This kind of warning charm Boss Su will too, and I have always wanted to ask him for advice. But since I also have a ready-made textbook in my hand, I can use it to draw a scoop from a gourd, and it doesn't hurt to try it.

The mustache is good at fighting ghosts and driving away ghosts, but this kind of means of finding ghosts and attracting ghosts is the strength of Yin Xiu, and he can only watch this Taoist cultivator. He was more anxious than me at the wine table, and soon came to give me a look, asking me if I was moving.

I was disgusted by his constant winking at me, and I was afraid that the guests at the table would misunderstand our relationship, so I kept coughing and shaking my head. The eldest brother sitting next to me always came to care about me and asked me if I wanted to drink something to moisten my throat?

I had no choice but to smile reluctantly, and I was about to decline his kindness. At this moment, the talisman in my hand suddenly flashed!

I fixed my eyes and saw that the place where it was lit up was in the west. I jerked to my feet, pulled a mustache at the same time, and shouted, "Outside the Western Wall!" ”

The mustache also reacted quickly, and immediately jumped up and ran out of the Zheng family's courtyard after me. Our sudden outburst shocked all the guests present, and the noisy atmosphere just now suddenly cooled down.

Seeing this, Lao Zheng hurriedly stood up to comfort everyone: "Don't panic, everyone! Eat, drink, and don't disturb the masters! ”

The mustache and I quickly ran out of the gate of Zheng's house and went around the outside of the west wall. I had two traps under the wall over there, one of which had been triggered, but no ghosts were trapped inside, and the rune was destroyed. It seems that it was because I set up the formation for the first time, or maybe I didn't cultivate enough, and the trap I laid couldn't trap the ghost who hated to marry.

I hurriedly looked up and soon spotted a chubby figure limping away in the distance. I pointed in that direction and said to the mustache behind me, "Over there!" She's hurt, let's catch up! ”

The chubby ghost really couldn't run fast, and we chased after him closer and closer. After chasing, I found that the direction of the hated ghost escape was the same route as last night. At the end of the chase, I thought it would run into the orchard, but I didn't expect it to get into the farmhouse!

Last night I was dazzled, but tonight I and the mustache really saw the ghost run in, and it turned out that its nest was still hidden in this family. The mustache ran straight to the gate and began to knock on the door with a "bang".

The farmer who had come out last night quickly came out again, opened the door and saw that it was us again, and asked in surprise, "What are you doing here, two masters?" ”

The mustache gasped, "We're chasing a ghost, but this time we've seen it enter your house!" ”

The farmer still did not suspect him, and quickly invited us in. This time, our search will be much more detailed than last night's. With the consent of the host's family, we also opened several boxes and cabinets, but found nothing. I didn't give up, and I took out the porcelain vase, released the diu and asked him to help us find it. The farmer looked dazed, not knowing who I was talking to with an empty bottle, and I didn't bother to explain it to him.

But even if you add it, after some searching, I can't find out where the hated ghost is hiding!

Finally, the mustache called me into the back room, pointed to a window in the back wall, and said, "Could it have come in just by borrowing the way and getting out from here?" ”

I said, "I can't rule it out." After all, there was a minute delay between the time we knocked on the door and the time the host opened the door. That's enough time for it to run through the house and out there. ”

The mustache cursed, I didn't expect this ghost to be so cunning, and he actually knew how to choose an escape route, and his anti-tracking ability was too strong!

We are not happy, and the face of the host is not very good at this time. The farmer watched us tossing and turning around the house for a long time, and didn't find a fart, so he said angrily, "What do you want to do?" For two nights in a row, you said that you wanted to come in and catch ghosts, but you looked at it all over the cabinets, I think you two only have ghosts in your hearts! ”

I hurriedly apologized to him, and quickly took the loss back, and left with my mustache in my hand. At this time, there was no point in going back to Zheng's house, so we simply drove to Changxing Town to stay in a hotel, rest for one night, and then do what he thought.

You're halfway through the mission, you can't just give up halfway, right? Besides, after two days of failure, the mustache and I also felt very aggrieved. As soon as the two of them combined, they both agreed that they still had to find a way to completely solve this matter before they could go back. So, on the third day, we drove to Taolian Village.

When I went to Zheng's house, I happened to meet Xiao Zheng and Zhang Xiaomei drying quilts together, and the two of them looked very sweet talking and laughing. The mustache always likes to make jokes about others, so he goes up directly and asks, "How is it?" Did the cave room go well last night? ”

Zhang Xiaomei's face turned red in an instant, and she was ashamed to answer. Xiao Zheng is an honest man, although he is embarrassed, he still nodded, and he was a little proud. At this time, Lao Zheng also walked out, and when he saw us, he came over to hold hands, and said gratefully: "Thank you two masters!" Last night's wedding was a success! My old Zheng family's face has finally been recovered! ”

We were also happy for them, and hurriedly said, "Congratulations! Congratulations! ”

Lao Zheng asked again: "That dirty thing...... It's all cleaned up, right? ”

"Not yet." The mustache shrugged his shoulders and replied.

This sentence made everyone's smiles disappear again. Lao Zheng kept rubbing his hands, and said with a sad face: "When is it going to be a trouble?" ”

"So here we go again today. Don't worry, we won't just go back until we settle this matter clearly! "I advise Lao Zheng.

The mustache pointed in the direction of the west and asked Lao Zheng, "Is there a graveyard or anyone buried in the orchard west of your village?" ”

Lao Zheng was stunned for a moment, shook his head and replied, "I haven't heard of this." There is a collective cemetery in our village, on another hillside to the east. The dead in the village are usually buried there, and they will not be buried everywhere. ”

"What about the family down the hillside of the orchard to the west? Is it a single family? I was attentive and asked about the farmer last night.

Lao Zheng said: "Oh, you're asking**, right?" He does live alone, but he is not from our village, he is an outsider, and he only moved here two years ago. ”

As soon as I heard that I was not from this village, I immediately became interested and continued to ask, "What did he do when he moved to Taolian Village?" ”

Lao Zheng said: "He came to help the boss look at the orchard." He is said to have lived in the town, but when his wife died and his daughter got married, he was willing to come here to help guard the orchard. But he was a bit withdrawn, and he didn't want to associate with the people in the village, and we rarely went to him. ”

I suddenly had a question in my heart, and then I asked Lao Zheng: "Are there many young people in your village who have been married in the past two years?" How many are there? ”

Lao Zheng saw that I asked this question very strangely, so he really frowned and thought about it, before he replied: "Our Taolian Village has a small population, and it seems that there are really few families who have held a wedding wine in the past two years, maybe this year my family and the Lin family have done it next to each other twice." ”

I nodded, and I had a little more in my heart, so I didn't ask any more. When the mustache saw that I looked confident, he pulled me aside and asked, "What?" What's your idea again? ”

"Don't you think that ** is suspicious?" I asked him rhetorically.

"It's a little suspicious, but we've searched twice and found nothing!" The mustache said helplessly.

"I still think he's very problematic." I muttered, "One is that he appeared in Taolian Village for exactly two years, and the other is that the ghost who hates to marry has run into his house twice, and these coincidences seem too many together." ”

"Another point is that ghosts are more true to their own nature than humans, and they are more likely to react instinctively. For example, when fleeing from danger, they react in the same way as many animals, and the first thing they think of is to run back to their hiding place to take refuge. Therefore, the fact that this ghost does not run anywhere, but runs to his house, is enough to prove this. To say that it is just a borrowing or putting ***, I don't think such speculations are convincing enough. ”
