Chapter Title: The ghost story of the old white fox

Provided by: Spirit March

Time: November 3 minutes local time

Location: Cloud City Book Club, the column of the underworld

『Text』:

Time: 8 p.m

Location: In a poplar forest on the outskirts of White City

White Market, is the jurisdiction of State X.

The place where X state is located is in the southeast of the mainland, although it is a little far away from Guizhou, but it is relatively close to the city where Tianshi is located, and it can be regarded as a close neighbor.

This is in a poplar forest on the outskirts of White City.

As for the poplar forest, although the name says "poplar", in fact, there are other trees in it, but poplars account for most of them.

See, on a small dirt slope in the woods.

Here, there is a very thick and very tall old tree, which looks like a "locust tree" because the branches are full of small yellow flowers, and when the breeze blows, many of them fall...... If you look closely, you can see that there is a thick layer of skin on the trunk, but for some reason, a large area has been cut off, probably because it is a long time, so what you see is just a scar.

A light breeze blows through ...... The moon was obscured by dark clouds, and a ray of moonlight shone on the ground in front of the tree!

For a moment, I only felt a white mist around me......

A gust of wind blew, and I gradually couldn't see everything around me clearly!

When the wind stopped, I saw a table and a chair in the moonlight!

There are also two red candles and a folding fan on the table......

Time ticked by.

It's so quiet that you can hear the sound of the hour hand moving around ...... click!

"Ding! ——”

In the wilderness, the sound of a bell rang, but it was only one.

After the bell sounded, I looked carefully at the tall tree trunk, and a white point of light appeared, which became larger and larger, and slowly gathered, and suddenly turned into a human figure...... An old man with a white beard in a brown robe stood there, hunched over and with his hands behind his back.

With his usual pace, he walked to the chair made of Nanmu, pulled it out, and sat down slowly.

Familiar actions: Pick up a thick leather book and open it; Pick up the folding fan on the right and open it; The left hand touched the left shortcoming......

I can only hear "Smack!" ——".

The voices of the elderly reverberate through the trees:

"Now, let's talk about this face-changing ......"

……

Time: 9 o'clock in the morning

Location: Ghost Inn in a barren place on the outskirts of Tianshi City

"Wait, what are you doing?"

As soon as Shenchen came out of the back room, he saw Liuyue standing on the table with something hanging on his feet, and couldn't help but ask curiously.

"What else can you do! It's a holiday?! ”

"Holidays?" Shenchen thrust his waist and said, "No, why didn't I know that we should celebrate the holiday?" What kind of festival is it? ”

"Halloween!" Liuyue replied, the movements in his hand did not stop, and then hung his red cloth strips, and said while busy: "Every Halloween, our inn will usher in a lot of big guys, we don't have some rehearsals, others will look down on us at all...... Feed! Convert, hand me the lantern......" Convert, who was wiping the table, listened, and hurriedly handed him the red lantern.

"No......" Shenchen was a little speechless, and said, "I didn't mean you, you are like this...... Liuyue, you're crazy about making dead people's money, aren't you? That's the Stygian coin! We can't spend it! ”

"What's wrong with not being able to spend it?" Liuyue glared at him and said, "Can't we accumulate virtue?" …… Also, it's Halloween, since people are here, we can't let people see our tattered appearance, right? …… In that case, how can we get our façade? ”

"Oops!" Shenchen snatched the lantern in the air and said, "You two listen to me, during Halloween, we promised the two big brothers black and white to go to the ghost market, when the time comes, who will watch the store?" You? Or are you? ”

Hearing him say this, the busy two were also stunned, and indirectly, they short-circuited in a short time......

Shenchen shook his head slightly, walked to the table, hung the red lantern on Liuyue's wrist, and then went out.

After the former went out, the two people in the room also came back to their senses, with the obvious words "Who am I?" on their faces. Where am I? Liuyue glanced at the red lantern hanging from her wrist, and threw it to the ground without saying a word.

scolded in his heart: Damn! Lao Tzu's efforts were in vain......

Compared to him, he was calm, he turned around, threw the rag, and walked into the back room...... Then, the sound of dishes and chopsticks colliding sounded!

……

After Shenchen went out, he drove a sports car to Guizhou, which was the closest to here, and the car stopped at a restaurant in a certain neighborhood in Guizhou.

To be honest, he didn't come here to date so-and-so, but to eat seriously!

I saw him walk into the house, pick a corner and sit down.

When the waiter came over, he ordered something casually, and watched the former leave.

He took off his sunglasses, picked up the tea set on the table, poured a cup of tea and tasted it slowly.

At this time, three middle-aged men in suits and sunglasses walked in through the main entrance, and they looked around and saw that there was only an empty table opposite the underworld, so they sat down there.

After the three men sat down, they actually put the suitcases next to their feet, and they looked vigilant, as if they were selling drugs......

Hades heard them speak:

"Hey! Have you figured out what I told you? ”

"What do you think? Your price is a bit pricey......"

"Oops! The main thing is that TA is too big! ……”

"No, no, no! A little less...... It's because TA is big, so people won't accept it easily! ”

"How much, you say?"

"Twenty thousand!"

"No! Too little! …… At least 50,000! ”

"Fifty thousand? We were talking about 30,000! ”

"Thirty thousand is too little! If you send TA out again, won't it be a hundred thousand?! I only need 50,000, isn't it too much? ”

"Okay! Just 50,000! ……”

These words sounded a bit like that to Shenchen.

Let's listen to what Shenchen thinks first:

TA？ Who is it?

Also, why is TA so big?

Thirty thousand, fifty thousand?

No...... What are these people selling?

It can't be a forbidden item, right? Is it to make people eat can ......

Oh, my God! It's a drug!

Do you want to make a move? Do you want?

Just when Shenchen was thinking about whether to make a move, the door of the store was opened again, and a girl about the size of Cai'er walked in with a schoolbag on her back, she was wearing a white school uniform and a ponytail...... She looked around, but finally shifted her gaze to the three people wearing sunglasses, and at this time, one of the three men actually stood up, took off his sunglasses and waved at the girl, who saw it, walked over to this side, and sat next to the man who waved just now.

Shenchen couldn't help but smack his lips: What's the situation?!

Hades stretched out his ears to listen to their speech:

"How? You alright? ”

"Hmmm! OK...... The age is in line with it, and it's pretty enough. ”

"What does she mean?"

"Hah, what's the point of a child? Adults call the shots! ”

"Uncle, what do they mean?"

"It's just to send you to study, don't thank you soon!"

"Thank you! ……”

"Is she clean?"

"Don't worry! Absolutely! ”

……

Hearing this, Shenchen couldn't listen anymore.

At this moment, what he thought in his heart:

No way! I thought I was selling drugs? Unexpectedly, the drugs are gone, and they are actually sold alive?! I'll go to your uncle's, how can I bear this kind of thing? You scumbags! He deserves to be subjected to eighteen layers of hell......

"Sir, your dish ......"

At this time, the waiter came to the table with the food.

"It's you?!" Shenchen's vision was blocked by the waiter's posture, and he wanted her to move the place, but when he looked up, he saw that it was no one else standing in front of him, it was Bingmeng.

Bing Meng didn't expect that he would actually meet Mingchen, smiled slightly, and said, "I didn't expect you to come here?" I thought ......" said, smiling and shaking his head, placing the meal on the table.

"By the way, why are you working here?"

Bing Meng smiled and said, "Isn't the family poor? So I came out and found a couple of part-time ......."

"Oh!" Shenchen nodded, and just wanted to ask something, but not far away, the voice of the proprietress came, "Bingmeng, come here!" The beef noodles on the 24th are ready! Deliver ...... to guests."

"Got it!" Bingmeng answered. She looked at Shenchen and apologized, "I'm sorry, I'll go and get busy first." With that, he turned and ran towards the kitchen.

Looking at her back, Shenchen smiled and shook his head.

Picking up the chopsticks, I was about to eat, but there was a reversal in my mind:

No way! I haven't taken care of the selling of people yet!

He looked up at the table in front of him, but he didn't expect that in just a few minutes, the two men sitting opposite the girl suddenly stood up, picked up their bags and were about to leave, not forgetting to pull the female student when he left. And the uncle of the female student went out with a smile after the three left, walked in the opposite direction of the three, and probably ran away.

I'll fuck your uncle! Why don't you wait for Lao Tzu to finish eating?!

Shenchen was not in the mood to eat anymore, so he casually took a few bites, took another sip of soup, pushed open the door of the store and ran in the direction where the three of them left.

Fortunately, the speed of the three of them was not fast, and the underworld quickly followed.

And at the intersection of the traffic light, two men actually dragged the female student into a dead end......
