Section 29 Rumors of He Shou Wu

Sure enough, it appeared!

I suddenly turned my head and saw a male ghost about my age floating behind, wearing a school uniform, with a pale face and a bloody neck! But I'm not very nervous about seeing all kinds of ghosts, and this guy looks like a new ghost, so I whisper, "Bold and wicked!" Why are you pestering your aunt?! ”

The ghost's originally dull gaze instantly regained its brightness, and he asked in surprise, "Can you see me?" ”

"Of course."

When my aunt saw that I suddenly turned around and talked to myself, she also stopped and asked, "Child, what's wrong?" ”

"I see that ghost,"

Hearing this, the aunt's face was slightly nervous: "What kind of ghost?" ”

"Don't worry, let me ask." After speaking, I looked at the young male ghost: "Why are you pestering Auntie?" What kind of grudge is there? ”

"No grudges, she ...... She's my mom. ”

What the? My face changed! Auntie said yesterday that she also has a son who is in high school and has good academic performance, is this ghost in front of her? But how did he die? Could it be that Auntie hasn't received the news of his death yet? So I asked cryptically, "When were you killed?" ”

The ghost's eyes dimmed, and his voice replied in a low, eerie voice, "A week ago. My mom worked hard to earn money for me to go to school, but I didn't ...... Are you a Taoist? ”

"Yes."

"Can you do me a favor and let me meet my mother?"

I looked embarrassed: "Yes, yes, it's just ......"

I mean, there's only a little bit of cow tears left, and I don't want to use them casually, but it's okay to help him pass the word. But he seemed to misunderstand and thought that I was taking the opportunity to rub oil, so he said: "As long as you help with this, I will give you a thousand-year-old He Shou Wu!" ”

I obviously don't believe this, although I don't know the value of He Shou Wu, but a thousand years must be very valuable, if he really has, will he live so hard? But instead of refusing, I asked, "Can you tell me how you died?" ”

The ghost nodded: "My name is Xue Yuanliang, because my hukou is not here, I can only go back to the countryside to study in high school, my mother is here to set up a stall to make money for me to go to school, I know she is very hard, so I go out to make money during the holidays, until a few days ago, under the introduction of others, I found a job with a high salary." ”

When I heard this, I knew that it must have been this job that killed him, so I didn't intervene and waited for his next step.

Xue Yuanliang continued: "The employer is a university professor with a male student, they are engaged in botany, and they want to go into the mountains to find out if there are any precious plants. My hometown is in a mountain village in the mountains, so I am very familiar with the environment, and the old professor hired me, saying that I would go into the mountains to explore for about a week, and I would be paid 200 yuan a day. After I asked the school for leave, I took them into the mountains, and it was last Monday. ”

I asked, "And then what happened?" ”

"At first, I was very calm, the old professor was also good, and when I was asked how my academic performance was, I replied that I was in the top 10 in the whole school. The old professor said that if I am interested in botany, I can apply to Capital University in the future, and he is the professor there, as long as I study hard with him, I will not have to worry about a way out in the future. I was very excited to be invited by the professor of Capital University, and I agreed to come down at that time, and I was even more respectful to him along the way. ”

"Is he a bad guy?"

Xue Yuanliang said sadly: "No, he is not a bad person. We searched in the mountains for five days, found a lot of precious plants, just when we were about to leave, suddenly found a plant on the cliff, the old professor said that it seemed to be the leaves of He Shou Wu vine, and it seemed that the age was not low, he insisted on going down to see, so he hung the climbing rope he carried with him on the tree, and climbed down alone. Soon, the old professor said excitedly below, this turned out to be a thousand-year-old He Shou Wu! It's a once-in-a-lifetime treasure! ”

Speaking of this, Xue Yuanliang suddenly showed a frightened look on his face: "Millennial He Shouwu, as soon as you hear the name, you know that it is precious, just when we are happy, we suddenly hear a roar from behind!" When I looked back, there was a tiger with black stripes on a white background standing there! And it's an adult tiger with a huge size! It directly threw the professor's student to the ground and bit off the neck in one bite! I turned and ran, not daring to linger! But the tiger chased after him, and it was extremely fast! I only felt a white shadow flash in front of me, and my neck was torn apart...... Then the tiger went up to the rope and bit it off, and the professor fell off the cliff......"

I frowned: "The beast has that high intelligence? Will also bite the climbing rope? ”

"I also know it's incredible, but that's the way it is, as long as you agree to my conditions, I will tell you the location of He Shou Wu. As for how to deal with that white tiger, it's not my problem. Xue Yuanliang said: "Because my mother has a bad heart, my aunt didn't dare to tell her about my death, but paper can't stop after all, in this case, it is better for me to tell her in person." ”

I wasn't interested in that He Shou Wu, just out of the joy of helping others, I nodded and said, "Yes, but the time is only one hour." ”

"No, at least three days and three nights!"

"You lion open your mouth, I don't have that many props. If she had to do it for three days and three nights, she would only have to extinguish the fire on her shoulders, which would cause damage to her body. ”

"So, is it okay for three hours?"

"No, two hours at most, no more."

Xue Yuanliang thought for a while and agreed: "Okay, when can I let her see me?" ”

"Tomorrow, I didn't bring props today."

"Okay, then I'll wait for you here at this time tomorrow."

At this time, the aunt asked beside her, "Child, who are you talking to?" ”

I took a deep breath, looked at her with some pity, and said, "It's nothing, Auntie, go back first, this ghost doesn't want to harm you, and you also know each other, I will arrange for you to meet tomorrow night." ”

"Meet the ghosts?"

"Yes, I'll look for you at the night market tomorrow night." With that, I turned and left......

……………………

The next day, early in the morning.

The ugly ghost asked me how I was doing last night. I told Xue Yuanliang about it, and the ugly ghost's face changed slightly after listening to it: "Is it really a thousand-year-old He Shou Wu?" ”

"I felt like he was making up stories, just trying to get me to help, and saying that there was a very smart tiger, and I didn't believe it."

The ugly ghost shook his head: "No, he shouldn't be lying. The so-called life is a lifetime, and the grass and trees are autumn. Polygonum multiflorum is a herbaceous plant, and most herbaceous plants can only live for one year, Polygonum multiflorum is a little more, but it is only more than ten years, coupled with natural disasters and wild beast bites, wild Polygonum multiflorum may not even live for more than ten years. Unless it grows in a place where 'vitality is condensed', it is not impossible for He Shou Wu to absorb the essence of vitality and live for thousands of years, but that thing only exists in legends, and I have never seen it. ”

"What about the tiger?"

"It should be a demon, it is protecting He Shou Wu, and when He Shou Wu sucks up the 'anger' there, it will eat He Shou Wu."

After hearing the ugly ghost's explanation, I was shocked: "So, the thousand-year-old He Shou Wu is really a treasure?" Can it be like in the movie, after eating, you will become an immortal? ”

"No, you can't. However, absorbing the vitality of the thousand-year-old Polygonum multiflorum can nourish the essence and blood, strengthen the muscles and bones, activate the nerves and detoxify, and prolong life. To put it simply, after eating, the blood can be purer and full of positive, and it can also strengthen the muscles and bones, open up the veins, increase longevity, and even detoxify some highly toxic substances. ”

"So powerful?"

The ugly ghost nodded with only half of his head: "Of course, He Shou Wu has absorbed thousands of years of vitality, and it is not surprising that it has this effect." ”

I was now trying to improve my strength quickly, so I said with some yearning: "Why don't we go find the thousand-year-old He Shou Wu." ”

"You want to die under the claws of that youkai?"

It's also said that although things are good, you have to have a life to get them, and if you leave your little life there, it's better not to go. So I stopped fighting He Shouwu's idea and said, "That's right, it's more reliable to practice down-to-earth, okay, I'm going to go for a run." ”

"Actually, if you want to get He Shouwu, it's not that there is no chance, I will come to you tonight, and after the ghost completes his wish, I will bring him back, and carefully inquire about the situation of the tiger demon, if the Tao is not high, we still have a chance."

I went downstairs and jogged and said, "What's the chance?" Even if what Xue Yuanliang said was true, I wouldn't be able to go. First of all, taking time off is a problem, secondly, travel expenses are also a problem, and finally, if I suddenly disappear, the deputy governor may do something to my parents. ”

The ugly ghost floated beside him and said, "The vice governor, you can let Master Jiang find a reason to drag it out." Sooner or later, your identity will be revealed, and the Ghost King will also make a move against you, so it's better to increase your strength while he hasn't noticed you yet......"

……………………

After lunch, I took the bus to Master Jiang's hardware store.

As soon as I entered the room, I found that he was sitting in front of the computer browsing something, and I said hello: "Master, what are you busy with?" ”

"Oh, I'll look at GDP."

I took a closer look, and this product was searching for fruit dan peel on Taobao.

What is the GDP? Are you tm when I'm stupid? But I came here today to discuss important matters, so I didn't bury him, but said: "Master, I recently wanted to go far away, and the vice governor will ask you to help me delay it." ”

Hearing this, Master Jiang almost didn't jump up: "You kid don't want to run away, right?" No, I've got to pack my things too! ”

Looking at his busy figure, I said: "Master, take a break for a while, I won't run away, after all, my parents are still here, I just went to the field to buy Niu Tears, and I will definitely come back in two weeks, but I'm worried that the vice governor is in a hurry, so you can find an excuse to prevaricate." ”

Master Jiang reluctantly said, "That's it, okay, I'll help you for free once." ”

"Master, this time it's not just free, you have to give me some funds. You know, I went to buy Niu Tears because I helped the vice governor. Actually, it's okay if you don't have to pay the funds, but you can't help the vice governor when the time comes, don't blame me if you go to prison. ”

"You're taking advantage of the fire!" The master gritted his teeth angrily: "Say it! How much to get! ”

(Make it up tomorrow, sleepy to death...... )
