vs 6 Old Wild Ghosts
vs 6 Old Wild Ghosts
"You go quickly, there is a lot of yin here, and staying for a long time will hurt your body." For the sake of her helping him resolve his concerns for years, he had to get her out of here as soon as possible.
"Can you watch me go? I'm afraid of making a mistake. "Chen Guifeng's IQ is not high, and his sense of direction is even more idiotic, and taking the wrong path may be something that will happen.
"Hmm." Fu Ning nodded.
Chen Guifeng smiled, revealing two rows of beautiful little teeth. As Fu Ning said, she took eleven steps towards the path on the right, then took three steps back, and then took a few steps to the path on the left. She stopped, wondering, why did the other party ask her to walk like this? She wanted to turn around and ask Fu Ning why, but she forgot that the other party had explained that she couldn't look back.
"You don't want to go out." Before Chen Guifeng turned around, he heard Fu Ning's fierce reproach, and the voice seemed to be behind her.
Chen Guifeng was taken aback, and did not dare to make a move for the time being.
"Walk fifty steps forward and look back." Fu Ning's voice sounded behind him again.
Chen Guifeng counted her steps and walked straight forward, and when she counted fifty in her heart, she turned around and looked back. I found myself on the dirt road I had just walked on, and the small bushes were still standing quietly. A gust of wind blew, and Chen Guifeng saw the straw hat that he didn't wear just now and fell to his feet. The scene just now didn't seem to have happened, and I couldn't see half of Fu Ning's figure at all.
Fu Ning watched Chen Guifeng arrive safely in place, and Fang planned to leave.
"Boy, you don't eat meat, but I'm not a vegetarian." A short and thin old man appeared in front of him, dressed in clothes from the Republic of China. He was followed by a thin boy in his teens, who did not have much cloth on his body, and looked very poor.
"If you have the ability, you can catch up, why do you have to live in me." Fu Ning didn't put the comer in his eyes at all, and said in a contemptuous tone.
The old man saw Fu Ning's arrogant posture, and his tone of voice was even harsh. He couldn't help but look at the other party from head to toe, the other party was full of yin energy, but his heels did hit the ground, his body was real, and his eyes were shining. He frowned, and he couldn't figure out the origin of the other party for a while, but he could guess that it was not small.
"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding." After the old man saw Fu Ning's posture clearly, he didn't dare to be presumptuous anymore, and said flatteringly, "How dare the little one make a fuss in the chief's life, I'll leave." He floated away with his steps.
"Standing." Fu Ning called the old man coldly.
"Sir, do you have any orders?" The old man said humbly. An old face glowing with blue was full of flattering smiles. His eyes are gray, his gait is unsteady, and he can tell at a glance that he is a wandering ghost. Originally, he was just passing by here, and he happened to meet Chen Guifeng, who had injured part of his yang qi due to Fu Ningling's cold yin qi, and was about to take the opportunity to suck her essence, but asked Fu Ning to stop Chen Guifeng's behavior of looking back, otherwise this rare delicacy on board would be in hand. The old wild ghost was very angry, but he couldn't afford to provoke the other party.
"If you dare to ignore the Underworld Law and suck the essence of mortals at will, don't blame me for being unkind." Fu Ning saw that this old wild ghost was not a good thing, so he coldly warned the other party.
"No, sir, the little one has never harmed a mortal so far. A small guarantee will not be used to steal such bad attempts later. The old wild ghost said sincerely.
"Sir, can you make me your sidekick?" The boy saw that the old wild ghost was blindly obedient to Fu Ning, presumably the other party was a powerful person, and he didn't have the slightest advantage with the old wild ghost, because the other party was too selfish, and he couldn't starve him to death if he couldn't feed him. Now that there is a good master, if you can change jobs, you have to jump immediately.
Fu Ning didn't even have the patience to look at the boy, and his untidy appearance made him avoid him. "You're not qualified to follow me." He said lightly.
The boy could read Fu Ning's disgust with him, and he said pitifully, "Sir, I was born in the war-torn era, and I was killed by a cannonball. I didn't do anything wrong in the yang world, but the judge said that I was young and ordered me to do such drudgery as moving bricks and mud, and required me to do it for 50 years before I could arrange for reincarnation. I couldn't bear the hardship, so I had to wander around with the elders. Dare to ask sir, was I born in that era and was killed by a bombing? If I could control my own destiny, would I have left the sun so early? ”
It turns out that the new law stipulates that those who report to the prefecture before they are under the age of 60, even if they have done all their good deeds, they must still be arranged to serve fatigue in the prefecture until they reach the age before they are allowed to reincarnate and return to yang. As for the level of work, it depends on the skills of the parties.
"You take it to the judge, he will arrange for you to work lightly, if you wander outside for a long time, sooner or later you will be taken in and used by the strong." Fu Ning casually tossed a green coin to the boy.
The boy happily took the coin, he was happy to fall from the sky, this is a status symbol, the wages paid by the underworld to Fu Ning, ordinary ghosts can't get it at all. It can be of great use in the underworld. The old wild ghost was salivating when he saw it.

That night, grandma's house was lively. In front of the courtyard and behind the courtyard, three wine tables were set up, and Yan invited the people who went up the mountain to worship their ancestors today. I saw that the tables around the six were full, and the sounds of laughter came and went, which was more lively than last night's. Chen Liyan, the eldest grandfather in the village, sat in a wheelchair and greeted everyone with a red face.
Chen Guifeng suffered from typhoid fever during the day, and at this time he was listless, and his appetite naturally couldn't keep up with yesterday's poor eating and choking.
"Sister, are you okay? Such a sumptuous and delicious dish doesn't make you look at it? Chen Guicun jokingly asked his sister who was not in the state, hasn't his sister always loved to eat big fish and meat.
"I'm so tired that I don't want to eat."
"Sister, let me tell you something strange." Chen Guicun said mysteriously in Chen Guifeng's ear while gnawing on a duck leg.
"What?" Chen Guifeng cheered up a little spirit.
"But I'll tell you when you've got to finish eating this big drumstick." Chen Guicun said and took a chicken leg with chopsticks and put it in Chen Guifeng's bowl.
Chen Guifeng obediently picked up the chicken leg and nibbled on it, although she was quiet on the outside, she was very gossip on the inside, and she just liked to listen to idle things.
"Do you know what strange things happened when we went to the ancestral spirit hall to worship today?"
"I'm outdated, I don't know."
"I usually ask you to follow me to the morning exercise and run, but you just don't go, lack of exercise, and know that your physical strength is not as good as others." Chen Guicun criticized her sister's tone like a teacher teaching a student.
"If you like to talk about it, just say it, don't say it, I'll ask Brother Guiyuan to go." Chen Guifeng was most dissatisfied with him, Chen Guicun was more like her brother, and she educated her tone.
"Don't go, brother, I described it much more than him." Chen Guicun immediately became serious, "At that time, after we cleaned up the surrounding weeds and dead branches, someone was responsible for burning clothes and incense inside, and someone was responsible for setting off firecrackers outside. The firecrackers were set off for more than 20 minutes, very lively, and there were cannon fodder for dozens of miles, and the people around them couldn't see it. I burned more than 200 firecrackers alone. Later, I heard from my mother and aunt that only two-thirds of the clothes, ingots, and candles in our basket were mysteriously missing before they were used, and the other families brought them were complete. Everyone said that it was the ancestor who appeared and ate it. ”
"That's all?" Chen Guifeng was disdainful.
"Don't you think it's very unusual? Our mother and aunt went back to the house and searched for it, but they did not miss the house. Chen Guicun said suspiciously.
"Maybe I fell off on the way." Chen Guifeng felt that Chen Guicun was making a fuss.
"Then you have to see the corpse, and there is no trace on the way." Chen Guicun is particularly concerned about this matter.
Chen Guifeng was speechless. In the afternoon, she walked around the village, planning to meet Fu Ning by chance, but she couldn't see the other party's figure, and she was not thick-skinned enough to be embarrassed to inquire about a man she had only met once. had to faintly, she believed that she would meet again.
After the banquet was dismissed, it was already eight o'clock in the evening, and there were no public street lights in the village. There were only a few small scattered stars in the distant evening sky, there was no moon to appear, and the whole village was unusually quiet and dark.
Chen Guifeng went to bed early to rest, and he was too tired. In the morning, Chen Guifeng felt so cold, she woke up sleepy and lifted the quilt, and inadvertently saw a fire outside the window. She just got out of bed and suddenly woke up, is the backyard on fire?
Chen Guifeng got out of bed and put on a long coat, gently pushed the door out, and walked through the front yard to the back yard. From a distance, I saw my grandfather sitting in a wheelchair, and my grandmother knelt on the ground and burned clothes. The paper was accompanied by yellow, green, red, and blue light, which reflected the faces of the two of them extremely strangely. Grandma whispered the words of the sacrifice. Chen Guifeng vaguely heard the words "wrong, go well, don't come". She felt strange in her heart, but she didn't dare to disturb, so she had to return to her room to continue resting.
--- --- --- --
The next morning, after breakfast. Everyone started planning their trip for the day.
"We're going to the next village today." Uncle Chen Xiahui said.
"Which village?" His son Chen Guiyuan asked curiously, he was going to meet his college classmates.
"Fujia Village." Chen Xiahui said.
Chen Guiyuan nodded in agreement, he had been to that village many times before. Li Hong disagreed, "I won't go, the people in that village ......"
"We must go, we are going to pay homage to one of his former comrades-in-arms on behalf of Dad." didn't wait for Li Hong to finish, Chen Chunhui interrupted her words in time, and stared at Li Hong with unfriendly eyes, do you want the next generation to know the rights and wrongs of your father's grievances?
Li Hong agreed, and there was no more controversy.
"Dad, I don't want to go, I want to visit my grandmother." Chen Guifeng said that anyway, modern people don't pay attention to unmarried women to worship their ancestors.
It's okay to go to other places, but it's not okay for her to go to her grandmother's house, Chen Chunhui hesitated how to refuse her daughter's request.
"Guifeng, you can go if you want. It's rare to go back to the countryside, and it's right to walk around. The eldest aunt said with a smile.
Without waiting for his parents to speak, Chen Guifeng fled and walked away. Leaving Chen Chunhui and Li Hong and his wife looking at each other impatiently. Chen Guicun wants to keep up with his sister's footsteps, and going to his grandmother's house is much more interesting than paying homage to an ancestor. But Chen Guiyuan grabbed his hand, and his eyes were saying, do you want me to be a young one?
In the end, Chen Chunhui and his entourage of six people rushed to Fujia Village in the car driven by Chen Guiyuan. Chen Guifeng took her grandmother and drove her car to Lijia Village. Lijia Village is much farther away than Fujia Village. The road is muddy and sandy, the scenery is beautiful, but the road is crooked and difficult to walk, grandma sat in the passenger seat to guide Chen Guifeng.
Twenty years have passed, and it is the first time that Chen Guifeng has visited her grandmother in person. She remembered that her grandmother had always disliked her, and every time she went to live in Shenzhen, she would treat her like an enemy. Now that she is Chen Guifeng, she may be able to change her grandmother's attitude towards her.
An hour later, when he finally arrived at Lijia Village, Chen Guifeng parked his car in the open space outside the village, and walked towards the village with a large bag of gifts.
