Chapter 21 The sprouting jujube tree trembled
[Hint: There is a new quest]
A piece of information suddenly appeared in Gu Ming's mind.
Subconsciously clicked on the task interface, only to find that it was a special task of the system:
[Explore the truth about the murder house and solve it]
[Reward: 20 points]
Seeing the task requirements, Gu Ming couldn't help but smile bitterly.
It seems that his every move is under the monitoring of the system.
What about privacy between people?
Well, the system is not people.
Tasks with points are certainly not to be missed.
Moreover, even if there is no such task, Gu Ming plans to find out.
After all, it is really worth a thousand dollars to rent this courtyard for eight taels of silver, and doing a task is nothing more than a matter of pushing the boat along the river.
So, he immediately took over the task and turned his head sideways with a smile: "Brother Leping, I'll buy some good wine and food in a while......"
"What do you want?"
He Yongliang's bracket tightened, and a sense of unease swelled up.
"It's a long night, why don't we ...... tonight"
He Yongliang immediately jumped to his feet: "Impossible, even if you invite me to eat dragon meat, drink fairy dew, humiliate me with silver, and smash me to death with your fists today, it is impossible for me to stay here overnight." ”
"You see, you offered to spend the night in this courtyard."
……
"It smells so good!"
At night, He Yongliang drank wine and ate meat at the same time.
"Nonsense, it's the so-called dragon meat in the sky, donkey meat in the ground, ......"
He Yongliang said angrily: "Come less, eat and eat, when will the five taels of silver promised to me be cashed?" ”
If it weren't for the sake of five taels of silver, he wouldn't have spent the night here if he was killed.
"What's the hurry? When the study opens and makes money, your ...... is indispensable."
"Why do I always have a feeling of being fooled?"
After a little drinking, I talked a lot, I was bold, and time passed quickly.
Before you know it, midnight falls, and yin strikes.
"Woo woo woo~"
Suddenly, there was a faint cry like a woman's voice.
"My mother's ......" He Yongliang was startled, and most of the wine instantly dissipated, and said in a trembling voice: "Wen Xing, that shopkeeper didn't lie to us, this courtyard ...... It's really not clean. ”
"Shhhh
Gu Ming listened for a while, then got up and walked out of the door to follow the sound.
The cry faintly echoed in my ears, but there was no one in the courtyard, only a large canopy of weeds and a tall date tree.
After listening for a moment again, Gu Ming's eyes slowly moved up......
Eventually, stay near the top of the trunk.
On a thick tree, a woman sat sideways, hiding her face and whimpering.
Why is it a female ghost again?
Gu Ming frowned, and he wasn't nervous at all.
After all, it's not a chick, and I already had experience dealing with female ghosts last time in Lanruo Temple.
Not to mention, I also learned two skills this time, and I feel more confident.
At this time, the female ghost seemed to sense Gu Ming's eyes, and her eyes also glanced down......
"Hey, what are you doing?"
He Yongliang didn't dare to stay alone in the house, so he ran out and looked up at Gu Ming's line of sight for a while.
Except for the branches, there is the dusk moon.
"Nothing." Gu Ming said perfunctorily, and took a few steps forward with a brush in his hand.
The female ghost also flew down lightly, standing under the tree, with a strong yin aura all over her body.
It seems that I am afraid that I will do it if I don't agree with each other.
"Girl, don't panic......"
In line with the psychology of valuing harmony and being able to move his mouth and never move his hands, Gu Ming began to persuade softly.
"Wen Xing, who are you talking to?"
Before the female ghost could answer, He Yongliang was so shocked that his hairs stood on end, and his voice changed his tone in fright.
But he soon got his mind out.
"Who are you? Did you come to pick me up? ”
The chill in the female ghost's eyes became even stronger, and her hair began to flutter, dancing like small snakes.
"No, no, no, we're just readers, you see, we don't have a talisman or a sword, and we're just a brush in our hands."
Well, that's right.
It's just that the brush is his weapon.
"Reader? So what are you doing here? ”
"To be honest, I actually want to rent this yard. It's just that some people say that the yard is ...... Ahem, the girl should know better than me. ”
"Speaking of which, do you still want to drive me away?"
"That's a bad word, I'm just kind to help you.
As far as I know, the girl didn't hurt anyone, so there must be some special reason for being trapped here......"
Hearing this, the female ghost seemed to remember something sad, her eyes turned red, and she began to sobble again.
At this time, He Yongliang finally saw the figure of the female ghost, and he was so frightened that he couldn't run, he couldn't run, he couldn't run, he could only hide behind Gu Ming with a frightened face, and he didn't dare to take a breath.
After a short while, the female ghost finally cried and told the truth.
It turned out that she used to be the maid ring here.
About 20 years ago, because of emotional problems, I couldn't think about it for a while and hung myself from this jujube tree.
The owner of the house was afraid of bad luck, so he asked someone to come and do a ritual.
As a result, a talisman was pasted on the tree, and her soul was also suppressed, and she could not get out of the tree.
Later, due to the sun and rain, the charm finally failed.
Unexpectedly, maybe the time was too long, and her soul had a little bond with this jujube tree, but she still couldn't leave.
After hearing this, Gu Ming couldn't help but ponder for a while and asked, "That'...... If you cut down this tree, will it free your soul? ”
The female ghost shook her head: "I can't tell...... In short, only by breaking away from this tree can the little woman's soul go to the underworld and enter reincarnation. ”
"Got it......"
Gu Ming nodded thoughtfully.
If she forcibly cut down the tree, it might hurt her soul.
After pondering for a while, Gu Ming's eyes couldn't help but light up: Why not try it with skills?
Since the soul of the female ghost has a bond with this tree, then this tree is no longer an ordinary tree, and most of it has been contaminated with evil energy.
After a long time, I am afraid that it will completely devour the soul of the female ghost, so as to open up the spiritual wisdom and cultivate into refinement.
It's like the tree spirit grandma in the black mountain.
That being the case, then retreat its evil and extinguish the hidden danger as soon as possible.
With this thought, Gu Ming said aloud to the female ghost: "Girl, you should stay away." I have a way to help you. ”
The female ghost hesitated for a while, then finally nodded and took more than ten steps back.
It's also the farthest she can move.
"Ahem~"
Gu Ming cleared his throat first.
Then he forcibly broke He Yongliang's hand and walked to the tree, and the "export into a chapter" and "wonderful brush" were performed at the same time.
"Heaven and earth have righteousness, the sun and the moon are bright, and ......"
As he spoke, he aimed at the trunk of the tree and waved it into the void.
"You are grass and trees, and they are yin spirits, the two have nothing to do with each other, I order you to quickly untie them, otherwise they will be burned......"
Gu Ming didn't know how to exorcise evil spirits, and he could only play freely.
During this period, He Yongliang looked at it with a blank face, and even forgot to be afraid.
He couldn't understand what Gu Ming was doing at all.
It's just that Gu Ming's brain is broken, and he actually ran to threaten and order a tree?
I don't know that the thought has just arisen,
"......
The jujube tree seemed to have a spirit, moving without wind and trembling......
