Chapter 39: Ghosts
After a busy night, I got Yu Xiaoting's ashes, and I fell asleep at dawn.
At about 2 o'clock, I was attracted by the aroma of food, and I woke up, and Ji Yun'er was cooking for me again.
"Thank you......"
I walked over and said something awkwardly, and she smiled mysteriously.
"Qingyuan, do you have time to go shopping with me?"
I sighed and helped serve the food, the food she made was really delicious, and when she was done, she washed the dishes, and I hurried over.
"You don't need to wash, I'll come, I'll ......"
But on second thought, why is there so much food stuffed in my refrigerator?
"Where did it come from?"
"Go to the store and steal ...... Brought it. ”
I sighed, and then hurriedly took out 1,000 yuan and gave it to her, asking her to return the money.
After a short rest, I went out, I hadn't visited the blind woman and the little old man for a long time, and I bought some fruit, and I planned to go there first.
Fortune-telling street, a little closer to the city, I took the No. 6 bus, almost 4 o'clock, arrived.
When I came to the door of the store, a middle-aged man was sitting in a store that had been renovated and opened, holding a yellow calendar in his hand.
"Oh, sir, I see that your Yin Hall is black, and I am afraid that there will be calamity, come, come in, I will settle with you."
I shook my head, do you need to say?
"Qingyuan, this ......" In the alley next to it, there was a blind woman's voice, I walked over, startled, a hand, as if from another space, stretched out, only half a section, beckoning.
I walked in, and all of a sudden, I was in the shop of the blind woman, and the little old man sat at the table, drinking a little wine, drunk, and had not seen him for a few days, and the two of them were much older.
I put the fruit down gratefully.
"Qingyuan, don't be so polite, you can come over to see your mother-in-law from time to time."
I sat down, and the blind woman touched her hands, and I reached for it.
The little old man leaned in.
"Oh, stinky boy, I haven't seen you for a few days, have you been entangled with some kind of ghost again? Look at you, the top of your head is black, if you were an ordinary person, with such a heavy evil qi, you would have died a few times ago and didn't know it! ”
I glanced at the little old man with resentment, he was a person, except for his mouth, and other places, which made me admire very much, plus he had saved me.
"Mother-in-law, today, I'm coming, it's ......"
"Qingyuan, mother-in-law knows what you want to ask."
I poured myself a cup of tea, sat down, and listened quietly.
"Qingyuan, you first remember, the sects that deal with ghosts, in this world, in addition to Naluo, Huangquan, and Ghost Mound, the Buddhists are the Sanskrit Yin headed by Putian Temple, and there are two major sects, one is the outer sect of the Buddhism, the Broken Precept Sect, the second is the Maoshan Sect, but two gates, now, they have all declined, especially the Broken Precept Sect, we have seen it except twenty or thirty years ago, and now, they no longer know their whereabouts."
I nodded, and the little old man came over, full of wine.
"Oh, kid, and ah, it's the people of the Yang world, the ghost burial team composed of a mix-and-match, which is specially responsible for dealing with ghost affairs, and there are many people from major sects."
I snorted.
"So many people? Mixed together, there won't be a problem, right? "Think about it, these sects, no matter how you say it, at least they are opposed to the people of Onizuka.
"No, these people, to put it bluntly, are all guys who have no understanding, inside the door, they can only run errands, do chores, and have a hard time, except for Sanskrit, they are neutral, and they will not spontaneously go to find trouble with any family, or go to catch ghosts, but some are unwilling to be monks, so they join this ghost burial team."
I took a sip of water, and I understood the distribution of power among the people who were now fighting with the ghosts.
"Nowadays, with Naluo and Onizuka, the power is relatively strong, Maoshan Sect, because of the strict precepts, the young people now, and they can't calm down and learn the Tao well, so over time, many of them are learning a little fur, so they come out to swagger and deceive, there are several on this street, and they were all disciples of Maoshan Sect before."
This reminds me of the day when the mustachioed Taoist priest named Mao Wang told them about the matter.
"That's right, the god of the Maoshan Sect seems to be quite capable, and the average powerful ghost should be able to be easily subdued, but the one who is pestering you is far more powerful."
The little old man said, standing up.
"Wife, I'll cook."
Then I talked about Lan Ruoxi again, and the blind woman sighed and shook her head.
"Qingyuan, among so many sects, perhaps the most miserable is the people of Huangquan, they are the largest number of all sects."
I blinked, listening inexplicably.
"The people of Huangquan can be regarded as the guides, those lonely souls and wild ghosts, after they die, the ghosts that cannot be reported are all dealt with by them, and the most special thing is that most of them are the ten halls of Yama, hand-picked, generations, can only run errands for Yama."
I thought of Naluo's person named Chenjun, and when I saw Lan Ruoxi, I called her the dog leg of the underworld.
The blind woman took a sip of water and continued.
"The people of their Huangquan, the previous generation, will basically be detained by hell as soon as they die, and the next generation must inherit the mantle, and it will be released until the next generation is born, and then the cycle will be repeated, alas."
"Why is it so bad?"
I was angry when I heard it.
"So they didn't think about resisting?"
"Silly boy, Qingyuan, after a person dies, he is bound to go to the land of the Ten Palaces of Yama and report, how can there be any resistance, if you don't listen to the order of Yan Jun, not only will your previous generation be tortured, you may, you will also be arrested and punished!"
"So many ghosts in hell? How can you let a living person do this errand? ”
"People are humane, ghosts have ghosts, there are many rights and wrongs, and ghosts may not be able to interfere, so in this yang world, living people are on errands, and things are much easier to do."
Then at 6 o'clock, we had dinner, and during the dinner, I remembered something.
"Mother-in-law, can you teach me some spells or something? Don't know what's wrong? As soon as I go out, I'm going to hit ghosts. ”
"Tuition, 2 ...... a month 3000。 ”
The little old man said immediately, I looked at him angrily, and nodded helplessly.
"After you've eaten, go back first, don't wander the streets at night."
After eating, I made tea and decided to sit down a little longer and listen more about ghosts.
"Qingyuan, ghosts, like people, are divided into three, six, nine and so on, roughly, divided into six classes, the most common is the discouraged ghost, these are ordinary souls, waiting for the opportunity to be reincarnated, and they don't want to go to the yin cao and be punished, so they stay in the yang world, and most of them die normally."
"The second type, the white-shirted ghosts, they are all in the yang world, they still have a memory, they don't want to leave, and many of them die unexpectedly, they will basically wander around the place where the incident happened, waiting for the opportunity to be reincarnated."
"The third type of yellow page ghost, this kind of ghost, is mostly killed, or committed suicide, a little resentful, but if you want to harm people, unless you meet a weak person, otherwise, it is difficult."
"The fourth type, called the black shadow, most of them are some stubborn diseases, painful death, some died in vain, the resentment is relatively large, these ghosts, after death, will still be tortured by illness, so, want to find a substitute, let yourself not be tortured by pain, once you find a substitute, will attach to that person, let the attached person, take him to suffer, until completely occupy the body of others."
"The fifth, the ghost, people have love and hatred, this kind of ghost, the resentment is very deep, because of people's seven emotions and six desires to die, the evil spirit is heavy, will harm people for no reason, and even some yin can't be arrested."
"The sixth kind, the green ghost, is the highest level of the ghost class, they can suck people's souls, and they can change their appearance, in broad daylight, they can still come out, but this kind of ghost is very rare, the one who pesters you, it should be the green ghost, specifically, we don't know much, thirty years ago, our husband and wife, once bumped into one, and almost died."
I remembered the Purple Lady, who had just entered the list of green ghosts.
"By the way, mother-in-law, do you know the Ten Thousand Ghosts Banquet?"
"Hahaha......" the little old man laughed.
"Gee, who are you listening to? This is in the ghost road, just a rumor, ordinary, a lot of powerful ghosts, in order to show their strength, divide the territory, to the list of green ghosts, you can open a hundred ghost banquet, and when you enter the list of green ghosts, you will open a thousand ghost banquet, this ten thousand ghost banquet, it should be some ignorant ghosts, made up. ”
I sighed, on the way back, I thought about the ten thousand ghosts banquet that Yin Qiu said that day, it didn't seem like he was joking, but after thinking about it, it doesn't matter what banquet he wants, anyway, it's good if I don't participate.
At this moment, I stood at the platform of Quandong Road, thinking, the ghost-run cleaning company should still be there, and at this moment, someone patted me on the shoulder.
I turned my head and there was nothing, it was going to be 10 o'clock, on the platform, the number of people was sparse, and there was no one behind me, so I wondered if I would meet again.
"Brother Qingyuan, this way, this way."
I heard a voice calling out to me, a little familiar, and turned my head to see a hand, coming from the side of the moving building, outstretching out, beckoning.
"Come here, Brother Qingyuan."
Listening to the voice, it didn't seem to be malicious, after thinking about it, I walked over, and as soon as I entered, I saw that it was the plot company, the three ghosts in our group, Huang Xiaolong, Zhang Mao, and Wang Xin.
"Grass, what do you want to do?" As I spoke, I raised my fist, maybe I was afraid of them before, but they are such a bastard and other reincarnation level, I punch one by one, look carefully, their bodies are white, they should be white-shirted ghosts.
As I spoke, I stood up with my chest straight, clenched my fists, and was about to fight, but the three of them seemed to be afraid, so they hurriedly smiled and nodded.
"Brother, we don't mean anything else, we just saw you, we just want to return the phone to you."
Huang Xiaolong took out the phone I had dropped in the place where the Rotten Face Ghost had fallen that day, and I grabbed it, turned around and left.
"Wait, brother."
I turned my head viciously.
"What?"
"That's right, you have been careful lately, you have angered the fat man nicknamed the dragon head, he is looking for you, saying that he will eat you alive when he finds you."
