After eight o'clock in the evening, the ghosts come back one after another, each of the ghosts who come back will salute Wang Laodao, express respect and gratitude, and then walk straight back to the Huangxian Temple, every time you walk into one, the name on the bamboo slip will be one less, quite magical, although the ghosts outside the Huangxian Temple are longing, but the neighborhood is quite quiet, quiet almost can be heard, even the birds do not rise and fall to this wood.

Seeing the ghosts returning to the underworld, Wang Xiaobai was not only eye-opening, but also a little secretly happy, according to this momentum, there should be no one who does not understand the rules, as long as the ghosts of the festival are back, Wang Xiaobai will also get his wish, officially worship Wang Lao Tao as a teacher, and become the successor of the Lingguan Law.

The time quickly came to nine o'clock, the ghosts returned one after another, and the ghosts were no longer visible outside the temple, but on the bamboo slips, there were still five names that did not disappear, that is, the five ghosts did not return, Wang Xiaobai couldn't help but smile bitterly, it seems that God just doesn't want him to go too well.

If you don't go back at nine o'clock, you're going to catch it, as for what punishment there is, it's a matter of the underworld, Wang Laodao looked at the five names on the bamboo slips, recited the incantation, reached out and touched the first name, like a 3D projection, a picture appeared above the bamboo slips, a male ghost was dangling on the street, Wang Laodao looked at the street carefully, noted the location, and then touched the second name, and still a picture appeared......

After the Wufu picture came out, all of them were in the county seat, Wang Laodao turned his head to Wang Xiaobai and said: "There is an old lady in the community on the right side of the old movie theater in the county, and there is a male ghost in the bungalow behind Li Ning Store across the street, you go and arrest them back, and leave the rest to me!" After being caught, return to Huangxian Temple to meet, understand? ”

"I understand, Master, I'll go!" Wang Xiaobai checked the equipment on his body, the token of the spirit officer, three yellow charms, a small gourd used to collect ghosts, the small gourd is spare, if the ghost cooperates, only a yellow charm needs to be pasted on the body, and it will follow the mage back, what he is afraid of is that the ghost rebels and makes a fuss without reluctance, so he can only use the small gourd to collect.

Wang Laodao wants to catch three, and the distance is relatively far, and they are all buildings, without waiting for Wang Xiaobai to set off, he took a step faster than he ran, Wang Xiaobai did not delay, walked out of the forest and went straight to the county seat, Wang Xiaobai is still very familiar with the county seat, after all, he has lived for three years, especially the old movie theater, although he has not shown movies for a long time, but occasionally a show or something.

Wang Xiaobai strode meteor, walked quite fast, it took less than half an hour to the county seat, today is the Midyear Festival, there are not a few people who burn paper, many crossroads have traces of burning paper, paper ashes are floating around, the whole county seems to be filled with a smell of burning paper, half past nine, at this time there are not many people in the county, but there are still people still burning paper.

Wang Xiaobai came to the old movie theater and turned right, there are rows of bungalows on the right, not even a yard, I have to say that Wang Laodao is still very intimate, the ghosts assigned to Wang Xiaobai are all near the bungalows, and the three ghosts that Wang Laodao wants to catch are all buildings with a community, I really don't know how to catch ghosts with great fanfare.

With his memory, Wang Xiaobai came to the second row of bungalows in this residential area, walked inside, and saw an old ghost standing outside the house, an old lady in her sixties, the old lady was wearing a brand-new longevity clothes, her body was intact, generous and decent, she should have suffered no crime when she died, she either died of illness or died of death, and there was no bloody breath on her body.

It stands to reason that such an old lady is the most well-behaved, I really don't know why I don't go back on time, the old lady has been standing outside, looking at a small window in front of her, and often sighs, Wang Xiaobai quietly approached, the token in his right hand, the yellow charm in his left hand, to a distance that can be attacked, and said in a deep voice: "Old man, it's time to go back, people die for their home, and they can't live if they stay in the world, the underworld has the rules of the underworld, and if it violates the rules of the underworld, it will be punished, why bother?" ”

Wang Xiaobai was ready to do it, just waiting for the old lady to escape, but I didn't expect the old lady to turn her head, her face was calm, and she didn't have any nostalgia, she looked at Wang Xiaobai quietly and said: "Little mage, if I leave, I will never come back, you let me look at my little grandson twice, I will leave, and I will never cause trouble for you!" ”

Wang Xiaobai couldn't help but be stunned, he was not afraid of the evil ghosts, and there was nothing to say, just do it directly, but the old lady was kind and talkative, Wang Xiaobai didn't know what to do, so he could only persuade again: "Old man, the world is in a hurry, this life is over, and I don't know what's going on in the next life, it's time to go!" ”

"Let me watch it for another five minutes, I'll go with you in five minutes, little mage, you are merciful, pity me for not doing anything bad in my life, just let me watch my little grandson for five minutes, I just can't rest assured of him......"

Wang Xiaobai was kind and soft-hearted, couldn't stand the old lady's pleading, felt that five minutes was no big deal, nodded and agreed: "It's five minutes, five minutes is up, if you don't come with me, I'll do it!" ”

"Thank you, little mage, thank you, five minutes will be fine......" The old lady thanked Wang Xiaobai while turning her head and looking into the window, with a look of pampering and a little helpless, Wang Xiaobai was curious and looked in along the window, and saw that it was a small bedroom, there was a small table in it, and there was a twelve-thirteen-year-old boy sitting behind the table, the lamp was on, and there were exercise papers on the table, but the boy was a little absent-mindedly stunned.

There was a middle-aged woman in her thirties sitting on the small bed in the room, holding a mobile phone in her hand, and she looked up at her son from time to time. ”

The boy looked back at the woman helplessly and said, "Mom, I want to pee!" ”

"Pee, what pee? Don't make excuses, I don't know your little bit of caution, go to pee after finishing the papers, son, don't blame your mother for being strict with you, you said that the competition is so fierce now, if you don't study hard, what should you do in the future, mom and dad save money for you to go to various cram schools, it's not all for you, I just don't want you to lose at the starting line......"

Under the woman's language offensive, the boy stopped talking, lowered his head and started to make a roll, but his face was very aggrieved, this scene is nothing unusual, in today's society, as long as the family is not too bad, it is basically staged every day, what is the old lady to worry about? Wang Xiaobai was very curious.

When the old lady heard the boy's words that she wouldn't let him lose at the starting line, she sighed and muttered to herself: "The child's life hasn't really started yet, why are you letting him run so fast?" Rushing to the end of your life? Hey, a little child, every day except school, is a cram school, there is no time to rest at all, so if it goes on, even if this child wins at the starting line, what can he do? ”

Wang Xiaobai thought deeply of the old lady's words, although his family didn't care much about him, but in the years of junior high school, his mother was not much different from this mother, and later went to the county to go to high school, and he couldn't manage it if he wanted to, and the situation gradually improved, and Wang Xiaobai was also deeply disgusted by this.

Wang Xiaobai couldn't help but say: "Don't say it, it's to learn that piece of material, you don't have to look at it and learn it well, it's not that fast material, you can't learn it well with a knife every day, not to mention that it's such a small county, what if you win the starting line?" Can you outperform all of China? ”

When the old lady heard Wang Xiaobai's words, she smiled, and couldn't help but sigh again: "Child, when you are old, you will know, this life is nothing more than an experience process, don't always think about who to beat, can live a lifetime of peace and security, healthy and healthy to old age, it is a very difficult thing, to live to seventy or eighty, it is a great achievement, to my age, it is the same as a child, can eat a little, can play a little, can be happy to be happy, live to the end, is not that the case?" ”

"For the child, the rules that should be established have to be established, just teach him the truth of being a man, the grades are almost almost, and if you like to play, you will love to play, hey, that's it, he doesn't understand it at all, and he forces a child to be dull every day......"

Wang Xiaobai, who listened to it, was stunned, the old lady's words were plain, like chatting about homely things, but you have to think carefully, but you can figure out the big truth, the ups and downs of life are not like this, from childhood to old age, it is a reincarnation, as the saying goes, old children, old children, what is the difference between old and children?

This life is not just a process and experience, wasted childhood, won at the starting line, and became gloomy, which is equivalent to losing a lifetime, not to mention that you are playing with your life, and you may not be able to win at the starting line, because there are so many people on the starting line, you may not be able to squeeze in.

Wang Xiaobai couldn't help but think, I ...... It seems like I've never won at the starting line, but I haven't lost anything!

Wang Xiaobai was still stunned, but the old lady sighed again, turned to Wang Xiaobai and said, "Let's go, I can't control it when I'm alive, and I can't care if I'm dead, I should go back!" ”

Wang Xiaobai felt that the old lady was a good ghost, and didn't want to paste a yellow charm on her, and was afraid that something would go wrong in the middle, so he still pasted the yellow charm on the old lady's chest, turned around and walked towards another family, the old lady pasted a yellow charm, floating behind Wang Xiaobai, the first one was very smooth, Wang Xiaobai was not in a hurry, identified the direction and walked quickly, ten minutes to the second location, the same is a bungalow, the difference is that the location is a little remote, far away from the male ghost in his thirties, with a bleak face, obscene in front of the door, Gritted his teeth and looked hideous.
