Rong Qiubai saluted Master Qiao: "Qiubai has seen Master Qiao. ”

Master Qiao slowly turned over and stood up, pointed at them with trembling hands, and asked loudly, "You guys explain it to me clearly, what's going on?!" ”

Qiao Shanshan's eyes were fierce, and she said, "Sir, didn't you say that you can let me get all the Qiao family's property immediately?" Don't do it yet! ”

Rong Qiubai took out a knife hidden in his sleeve, smiled slyly, and slowly walked towards Master Qiao, and said in his mouth: "Master, I'm sorry!" ”

Old Man Qiao's legs were weak, and he sat down on the bed, his face was frightened, and he looked at Qiao Shanshan in disbelief: "I'm your father!" ”

Qiao Shanshan glared and said fiercely: "What about my father? You have always been eccentric, and you think about Qiao Zimei if you have anything good, do you know what day it is? When Qiao Zimei was with Lu, you gave her a golden hairpin, what about me, I am with Lu today, but you made me lose my mother! ”

"Don't say so much!" Rong Qiubai said, glaring angrily, and stabbed the knife at Master Qiao.

When Qiao Zimei saw this scene, she immediately reached for the knife and wanted to hold it, but unfortunately her hand penetrated the knife, and the ghost couldn't touch the real thing.

Fortunately, Master Qiao dodged this attack, and he shouted: "Silly girl, do you think you are really born to He Jiao?" ”

When Rong Qiubai heard this, he quickly wanted to stab him a second time, but he didn't want to be pulled by Qiao Shanshan's arm, Qiao Shanshan asked Master Qiao, "What do you want to say?" ”

"Don't say so much!" How could Rong Qiubai allow Master Qiao to tell the truth, the property of the Qiao family, he had the chance to win, and pushed away Qiao Shanshan, who was pulling his arm, so that she fell to the ground, and quickly wanted to stab again.

When it was imminent, Qiao Zimei fell to Rong Qiubai's body, and 'Rong Qiubai' immediately became kind-eyed, the hand holding the knife hung down, and as soon as he let go, the knife fell to the ground with a "clang".

Master Qiao was so frightened that he had half his life left, sitting on the bed and patting his chest violently to gasp, Qiao Shanshan was surprised by Rong Qiubai's changes, but her mind was still on what Master Qiao said, she got up and asked Master Qiao: "Who was born to me?" ”

Master Qiao straightened out, walked to the cabinet, took out a long dusty wooden box from the drawer, opened the wooden box, took out the picture scroll inside, and slowly opened it.

Master Qiao looked at the beauty on the painting, his eyes were slightly moist, and he said slowly: "Xiulan is not only Mei'er's mother, but also your mother, I was ignorant when I was young, I often messed with flowers and grass, I met He Jiao, at that time your mother was still pregnant with you, I also insisted on marrying He Jiao into the door as a concubine, Xiulan was so angry that she was born prematurely, and finally died of dystocia, and then two or three years, He Jiao has not come out, she asked to give you to her as a daughter, at that time you and Mei'er were still young and ignorant. I've always been not partial, but put my fault on you, I have been numbing myself, making myself feel that Xiulan died because of giving birth to you, covering up the fact that I made her angry and gave birth prematurely, so that I don't feel so guilty. ”

'Rong Qiubai's eyes were also moist, she also saw this portrait for the first time, the first time she saw her mother's appearance, no wonder she and her half-sister, who was two years apart in age, were said to be twin sisters, it turned out that they were born to the same mother, and Qiao Shanshan looked very similar to her mother.

After listening to what her father said, Qiao Shanshan frowned, Qiao Zimei was actually her sister with the same father and mother, and He Jiao's murder of Qiao Zimei was the one who gave He Jiao advice, and she was a little uneasy in her heart.

'Rong Qiubai' was very sad, and his voice was a little hoarse: "Who can do nothing, I think Xiulan has forgiven you." ”

When Master Qiao heard him speak, he was angry, pointed at Rong Qiubai with a trembling finger, and scolded angrily: "You! Don't get out yet! ”

'Rong Qiubai' lowered his head and retreated. He walked all the way to the bustling street, and saw a beautiful woman with two maids following her, smiling crookedly, walking over quickly and reaching out to pinch someone's buttocks.

Without waiting for the beauty to attack, Qiao Zimei broke away from Rong Qiubai's body, this womanizer has been doing evil for many years, and now he still wants to swallow his father's property, this time he feels better!

The beauty was startled and shouted, and the two maids around her immediately shouted loudly, attracting several men to grab Rong Qiubai and beat him violently. Rong Qiubai was beaten so that his bones hurt all over his body, and he was still ignorant for some reason.

The sky gradually darkened, Qiao Zimei saw that Daddy and her sister had untied the knot, and the bad guys had also suffered the consequences of their own actions, she was deeply comforted, and a comforting smile appeared at the corner of her mouth, she had nothing to worry about, and now all she can do is accept the master of fate, although she was born in a rich family in this life, but she has lived too hard, she hopes that the legend of the bridge is true, and after drinking Meng Po soup, she can forget the people who have hurt her in this life, and the suffering she has suffered, but where is the bridge? How should I go on the road of reincarnation?

Suddenly, as she passed through the alley, she saw a ghost of her kind, an old woman, sitting in the depths of the dark alley, and she walked over, and the old woman had been watching her in silence as she walked towards her.

She asked the grandmother, "Grandma, why don't you go and be reincarnated?" Is it time yet? ”

The old grandmother smiled, her face was wrinkled, and her voice was hoarse: "I've been here for more than a hundred years!" ”

Qiao Zimei was puzzled: "Why?" ”

The old woman said: "I was killed in this alley, and I must find a stand-in to dissolve my resentment and reincarnate." ”

"And this kind of rule?!" Qiao Zimei was stunned. No wonder there is no black and white impermanence to hook her soul, she was also killed by someone, wouldn't she have to be like an old grandmother, she had to find a substitute to be reincarnated?

Qiao Zimei said again: "Is there no other way?" I don't have any resentment now, I don't want to hurt anyone! ”

The old grandmother said: "If you don't have resentment, you can naturally find the ghost gate, and if you can't find the ghost gate, it proves that you still have resentment!" I don't dare to hurt people, but I don't know how to get rid of resentment, but fortunately, after more than a hundred years here, I have watched the changes in the world and understood the warmth and coldness of people, but I am used to it, but I am ...... Somewhat lonely! ”

Qiao Zimei asked herself if she really didn't hate anyone, where did the resentment come from?

She asked the grandmother, "Is there no other way to go?" ”

The old grandmother smiled: "There are still a few roads!" ”

There are so many roads, and Qiao Zimei seems to see hope: "Which ones are they?" ”

The old grandmother's expression became serious, looking a little bluffing: "First, you have to go through the judgment of the ten halls of Hades, if you are guilty, you have to suffer from hell before you can be reincarnated, if you are not guilty, you can choose to be reincarnated or stay in hell to cultivate as a ghost and immortal, but there are almost no innocent people; Second, it is to fall into the Lethe River, the Lethe River is full of lonely ghosts, poisonous snakes and monsters who dare not suffer from hell and cannot be reincarnated, you have to wander in it for a thousand years before you can be reincarnated, whether you are reincarnated as a human or a beast depends on your merits during your lifetime! Thirdly, like me, if you wander in the yang world all the time, or accumulate a thousand merits, or look for a substitute, and if you do one of the two, you will be reincarnated. ”

Qiao Zimei felt unreasonable: "I don't understand, isn't it detrimental to yin virtue to find a stand-in, why has it become a shortcut to reincarnation?" ”

The old grandmother said: "Hehehe, everything has a certain number, and if you are caught as a stand-in, it will definitely not be much better, or a great traitor, or there should be such a catastrophe in your life, you hurt him, it is equivalent to helping the person who was harmed by him, do you think it is so easy to catch a stand-in?" I've seen a ghost waiting for a stand-in, and in a hundred years, I haven't been able to catch one! Because if you hurt a good person, you will soon go to hell and be punished! ”

Qiao Zimei suddenly felt that the old grandmother was very kind, and she had never harmed anyone for more than a hundred years, and she asked, "Grandma, have you been accumulating merits?" ”

The old grandmother smiled kindly: "I, I'm a useless ghost, I'm afraid of the suffering of hell, I'm afraid of the horror of Lethe, and I'm afraid of harming people, but I still have three hundred and two merits left, and I can enter reincarnation!" ”

Qiao Zimei's admiration for her spontaneously arose, and said: "Grandma, fate treats you so unfairly, and you can still be so kind, it's really commendable!" ”

Not far away, a young man was besieged by several officials, and he pounced on a girl and tried to kidnap her, but the old woman was quick and pushed the girl away, so that the prisoner fell to the ground and was caught by the officials.

Qiao Zimei was surprised, and when the old grandmother came back, she asked: "Grandma, you can actually touch that girl's body, I haven't been able to touch the real thing since I died!" ”

The old grandmother smiled and narrowed her eyes: "As long as the mental power is enough, it's fine, you have to try a few more times!" ”

Qiao Zimei nodded, suddenly silent, all her thoughts were thinking about how to go in the future, in fact, the grandmother said a few roads, she thought that the best was the first, accept the judgment of the king of Hades, she asked herself if she had not done a bad thing in this life, naturally she had a clear conscience, as long as the king of Hades sentenced her not guilty, then she could be reincarnated with peace of mind.

The old grandmother seemed to see her thoughts, and said with a smile: "Try what you want to do, how to get the opportunity to be reincarnated, I also heard it, what do you want to do, think about it yourself!" ”

Qiao Zimei frowned, thoughtful.

The old grandmother sighed and said, "Little girl, let me tell you honestly, I used to be a goddess, and what I told you just now was also taught to me by my master, but I am not good at academics, and I often cheat people out of money, and some people even don't go to seek medical treatment when they are sick, but they come to me to worship God, and finally the medicine stone is invalid for a long time, so I don't dare to go to the Hades Palace, I remember that the master said that except for the people who died after the end of their life and death in the book of life and death, there are hell messengers to pick them up, all the people who die horizontally, and those who have great grievances, must be wandering spirits, and they must dissolve their grievances, If you don't have any resentment, as I said before, you will naturally be able to find the ghost gate! ”

It turned out that she was a goddess, or a goddess who cheated people out of money and harmed people's lives, no wonder she didn't dare to reincarnate, she asked the grandmother: "What is the unfinished life?" If I die, isn't it the end of my life? ”

The old grandmother shook her head with a smile: "Yang Shou is over, it is a good death, and a horizontal death is not over, that is, Yang Shou is not over, but due to some kind of karma, the soul is out of the body, and the people who die are all evil results planted by evil causes!" ”

Qiao Zimei frowned: "In my life, I haven't done anything bad!" ”

The old grandmother shook her head: "No, no!" If you want to know the cause of the past life, the recipient of this life is! ”

The old grandmother asked Qiao Zimei to stretch out the palm of her right hand to show her fate, the old grandmother squinted her eyes and looked at it carefully for a while, and said: "Your life is really bitter, you are often abused, and the Ai Lang you meet is also a ruthless and unrighteous person, the original lifespan was eighty-one, but he died at the age of seventeen, you will meet the noble person of fate in the future, but ......"

Qiao Zimei saw the old grandmother stumbling and asked, "But what?" ”

The old grandmother said: "No matter how many setbacks you encounter in the future, you must have a good heart and do good deeds, you have to believe that God lives up to the good people!" ”

The old grandmother looked at the moon hanging high and said, "I'm hungry, I want to go back and smoke incense, do you want to come along?" ”

Qiao Zimei shook her head.

Grandma left with a smile, didn't float a few steps, and suddenly turned around and said, "By the way, as long as you see a large piece of blood-red flowers on the other side, and when you come to the end, the ghost door is closed." ”

"The other side of the flower?" Qiao Zimei muttered, what kind of flower is this?

"See you soon!" The old woman did not wait for her to ask, but left lightly, and soon blended into the night and disappeared.

Qiao Zimei walked aimlessly, the cold wind was blowing, blowing enthusiastically the signboards and lanterns of the shops on the street, and she also felt cold to the bone.

There are no pedestrians on the street, occasionally a few souls walk quickly with their arms crossed and shrunk their bodies, it seems to be extremely cold, Qiao Zimei plans to go back to Qiao's house to rest, when she thinks of the offerings prepared by her father, her stomach is even hungrier, and she can't help but speed up the pace of going home, her body is light and fluttering, and she walks like a breeze in one, and she doesn't feel tired no matter how fast she walks.

When Qiao Zimei was in a hurry, a snow-white suddenly appeared in front of her, with a white dress, silver-white hair and snow-white tail, she turned her back to Qiao Zimei, turned half of her face, and her voice was soft and soft: "Where are you in a hurry?" ”

Qiao Zimei was stunned and paused, this tail that is so agile behind the buttocks is a cat demon!

The cat demon turned around, her light blue eyes stared at Qiao Zimei tightly, her eyes were sharp and cunning, and the soft and beautiful voice was suddenly different, her eyes, just like that night, stared at the prey in front of her unscrupulously, and this time, there was more imperative on her face.

Qiao Zimei turned her head and ran, shouting: "Don't eat me, I'm miserable enough in this life, I don't want to be a ghost and be eaten!" ”

The cat demon stared at the prey that fled like a mouse, and let out a crisp laugh, she was not in a hurry to chase, this laughter seemed to have a more deterrent effect.

Qiao Zimei was afraid of affecting her family, so she didn't dare to run home, and ran around like a blind fly.

The cat demon was cautious this time, and didn't want to run away from the meat in her mouth, so she reached out and grabbed Qiao Zimei's arm and pulled her back hard, pulling her into her arms, her chest was close to Qiao Zimei's back, her left hand choked her throat, and her slender nails slowly crossed her smooth face, whispering in her ear: "In addition to letting me let you go, I will allow you to make a wish!" ”
