Sure enough, as soon as Xia Chong's hand reached into the water, a biting cold air penetrated straight into her bones, like a thin needle piercing it, and her fingers were instantly frozen stiff, so she pulled her hand out of the water.

But when she looked at it again, she found an even more terrible thing, the water of this Jingting Lake can be said to be crystal clear, but in this water, there is not a single fish, not even a single aquatic weed, the whole lake is lifeless, only a few ripples under the breeze.

Xia Chongming gasped suddenly, like retreating from behind, and stumbled into Lin Luo, who was standing behind, she felt that her legs were weak, so she leaned on Lin Luo and said weakly: "Luo Luo, there are no fish in this lake......"

Lin Luo looked at her suspiciously, helped her up, pointed to a place and said, "How could it not be, are you not good-looking?" Wow, isn't that it, you haven't even seen such a big fish. After speaking, he pouted.

But in Xia Chongming's perspective, there was nothing but the quiet lake. Dai Chuchen on the side also leaned over when he saw this, and looked over, Zhang Kewei also happily introduced that this is a koi fish in the lake, big and good-looking, and not afraid of people.

The remarks of the three made Xia Chongming look confused when he heard it, and seriously doubted if there was something wrong with his eyes, why could everyone see it but she couldn't see it? Oh no, there was a problem with her eyes, and now it seems that it shouldn't be good, but now she can't make sense of this situation, she can see what ordinary people can't see, but why can't she see what ordinary people can't see?

For a while, Xia Chongming fell into a puzzling whirlpool, she rubbed her eyes repeatedly, and looked at the lake, but what she could see was still the dead pool of lake water.

As her strength gradually increased, Xia Chongming's eyes were already obviously red, his eyes were covered with subtle bloodshots, and his left eye was also crying because he rubbed too hard.

At this moment, an old man's voice suddenly came into her mind, and the old man said slowly in his old voice, "Miss, don't rub it. The old man looked at it and felt very distressed...... "His voice was a little concerned and regretful, and he looked very helpless.

However, this voice made Xia Chongming violently recall the ghost thing that almost killed her two days ago. She shuddered and looked around, could it be that the old man chased after her that day?

Just as Xia Chongming was wandering around, another passage came into her mind, the same old man's voice, but this time the tone was very humble and respectful: "Miss, the old man has harmless your heart, please rest assured." If the young lady wants to find out, she can follow the old man to the shade of the tree, where the sunlight is too strong for the old man to come out. ”

After Xia Chongming heard this, although she still didn't believe it, because it was daytime, her courage was also a lot fatter, she said hello to the three people who were discussing Zhenghuan, and walked to a bench under the shade of a tree not far away. Before she could sit down, a wisp of green smoke flew out of the ring on her hand with a "whoosh", and instantly turned into an old man in rags, and his body still exuded a faint blue light.

The old man stood in the shade of a tree not far away, curtsied, bowed his head, and said, "What does Miss want to ask?" Xia Chongming was taken aback when he saw the old man's appearance, this was clearly the ghost thing that wanted to eat her on the day he came back from the grave.

So she hurriedly got up and tried to step back, looking at the ghost with a wary expression. However, the smell of blood on the old man's body at this time had faded, and with the faint blue light, it actually made Xia Chongming feel a little righteous and awe-inspiring. But the terrible memories before suddenly reminded her of how strong the disguise of the ghost was, maybe this kind appearance was even pretended by him.

After a while, Xia Chongming saw that he didn't attack her, so he strengthened his courage and stammered, "You, why are you here?" How did you get out of the ring? As he spoke, he stepped back, farther away from the old man.

Seeing that Xia Chongming was so afraid of him, the old man actually knelt down and bowed, knelt on the ground, and said sincerely: "After I attacked you that day, I was found by your mother, and then she was subdued." She used this ring to purify my blood, cut off the evil spirit in my heart, and restored me to the right path, so that I no longer kill people now. She also instructed me to take care of you, and the best reward was that I could cultivate with the help of the aura in the ring, which was rich in aura and very beneficial to me. Now that my ghost qi has become more and more refined, I am not sure that I will be able to reincarnate again in the future. ”

He just lay on the ground and finished telling the ins and outs of the matter, without moving the slightest crooked thought in the whole process. This made Xia Chongming a little surprised, she remembered Su Jin's actions before the business trip, so she believed what the old man said.

It's just that in his narrative, there is one thing that makes Xia Chongming feel very puzzled, can't this person be reincarnated? Xia Chongming coughed lightly twice, and said solemnly: "Well, then you tell Miss Ben why you can't reincarnate now." After speaking, Xia Chongming slowly moved his steps again and sat on the chair again.

Unexpectedly, as soon as these words came out, the ghost on the ground had a bitter face, he choked in his throat, and said: "Miss, it's not that the old man is unwilling to reincarnate. It's that the old man has become a powerful ghost when he dies, and Lord Yama won't accept it. In addition, the old man has been wandering in this world for too long, and his soul is no longer complete, and now his soul has completely dissipated. If you want to be reincarnated, you can only rely on cultivation in the later stage and fill your soul with ghost qi before you can be reincarnated. ”

As he spoke, tears flashed in his eyes, and Xia Chongming's heart trembled when he saw this.

She said in a soothing tone, "What did you die for?" Why did you become a ghost? Can you tell me about it? After saying that, she raised her hand and motioned for the old man who was lying on the ground to get up.

The old man wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and said sadly: "Miss, remember not to say this to other ghosts in the future, this is a big taboo." Don't worry, the old man will tell you about his background. ”

Xia Chongming sat on the bench and listened to this tragic story quietly with his cheeks on his cheeks.

……

"You stinky old man! Pay it back! Otherwise, buy your daughter to a brothel!" ”

A group of people were desperately chasing an old man with white hair, the old man was in tattered clothes and covered in dirt. After a while, the old man collapsed and sat on the ground, surrounded by a group of strong men.

One of them stood up, raised his head and raised his eyebrows, and said, "Coach Zhang, you won't run away again today!" "This person is dressed in brocade clothes, silk and silk and gold and jade, and he looks rich and noble. Although the appearance is very handsome, it exudes a squishy energy from the bones, which makes people scratch their noses. Obviously, he was the leader of the group.

The old man who was surrounded in the middle hurriedly knelt on the ground and kowtowed together, his forehead hit the ground and there was a clang, and blood soon appeared on the ground, and he begged: "Pay back!" Pay it back! Please don't touch my daughter! Zhang Chefu was extremely desperate at this time, he was just an ordinary family member who made a living by pulling carts.

Unexpectedly, a few years ago, I accidentally picked up a priceless treasure on the outskirts of the city, and wanted to exchange it for a few dollars, but I didn't know that I met a bad person, and not only deceived the treasure but also made myself owe a huge amount of money. This creditor is fine if it is someone else, but it is the young master of money in the city. This young master Qian is well known to everyone in the city, and he is a well-known "Zhou Peel".

Not only that, but he colluded with the government, even if he was involved in a life lawsuit, he could walk on the street the next day, so the people were afraid of him and did not dare to provoke him.

A few nights ago, this young master Qian came to the door to ask for debts, and in a fit of rage killed Zhang's wife, the only daughter of Zhang's family was taken away by him because of her good looks, and the family was ruined overnight.

"Humph! Where do you have so much money, you stinky old man? I think even if you sell your house and your broken car, you won't be able to exchange it for a few dollars, so let's obediently dedicate your daughter to our young master! Otherwise, I don't think you will survive today! The dog behind Young Master Qian was arrogant here, and after speaking, he spat out the saliva on the coachman's face.

Zhang Chefu had nothing to do at this time, no matter how much he saved money and borrowed money, it was not enough for one ten-thousandth of what he owed, so he could only kneel on the ground in despair and kowtow while saying: "Young Master Qian, please do well, forgive me for two days!" I'll have enough money for you, please don't touch my daughter!" Be merciful. ”

His forehead was already blurred with blood, but the people around him did not show any pity, but intensified their efforts, spitting on him, and even spitting on him, and even snatching the tiles next to him and throwing them at him.

"That's it! A stinky old man and what is his name, call me! Young Master Qian laughed contemptuously and kicked the coachman hard. At the sound of an order, the hooligans and ruffians around them rushed towards Zhang Chefu with great vigour.

Seeing this, Cheman Zhang hurriedly got up and ran away, but how could an old man outrun so many strong men? To block them, he threw the car behind him. The wooden cart that had been used for decades was reduced to pieces under the chaos of a group of people, and this was the only thing that could be exchanged for money in Zhang's family.

"It's over!" Zhang Chefu wailed in despair. He knew that there was no room for maneuver now, and that his only way to survive at this moment was to run forward, and if he didn't run, he would die under the chaos of these men. So he closed his eyes, took his old legs, and ran forward with all his might.

"Bang!" There was a neighing of horses and the sound of violent crashes. At some point, the coachman had already run to the middle of the road, and by chance, a carriage came at a gallop.

Before he could see what he saw, the poor coachman was knocked out at once, and the horse, visibly frightened after the collision, ran forward uncontrollably. The coachman, after being hit, was trampled by the frightened horse, and finally died under the horse's hooves, and the death was terrible......
