When I looked back, I saw Daoist Qiu coming out of the house, and Daoist Qiu looked a little tired.

He said to me, Zhang Yan, is your master gone?

I hummed and asked Daoist Qiu, "Daoist, are you okay?"

Daoist Qiu said it was okay. He then said to me, "Did your master ask Bai Qi to stay and help you?" ”

I said yes. Daoist Qiu pondered for a moment, and then pinched his fingers and calculated. Then he said to me lightly, rest first, and set off tomorrow.

I said okay.

Daoist Qiu turned around and entered the room, and Tianshi Cao quickly chased after him and talked to Daoist Qiu. I said to Bai Qi, General, it is inconvenient for you to travel during the day, if you don't mind, can you stay in my underground office for the time being?

Bai Qi didn't say anything at all, and said a promise as soon as he opened his mouth.

After Bai Qi spoke, I opened the paperwork, and he entered it.

I stood in the landlord's yard stunned for a moment, I looked up at the sky, the starry night was dazzling, but I was already wrapped in a chill in my heart.

Xiao Wanwan didn't know when she stood beside me, I reached out and pinched Xiao Wanwan's hand, Xiao Wanwan didn't avoid it this time, but took the initiative to lean on my shoulder, Xiao Wanwan said to me softly, Zhang Yan, no matter what you fight for, you have to remember that I have always been behind you.

I hummed.

"Look at your little couple's true affection. It's really enviable. "The landlady didn't know when she was in the compound.

Xiao Wanwan hurriedly left my shoulder, and said shyly, Auntie, don't laugh at us. Zhang Yan, I'll go back to my room and sleep first. I said okay and looked at the back of Xiao Wanwan running away. I spent some time in the yard by myself, and then went back to my room to sleep.

On that day, at dawn, we rushed from Kaifeng City to Xianyang, and on the train, I also told Daoist Qiu about the underworld. Daoist Qiu asked me not to mind, saying that this time it was the underworld that did something wrong, but let me not forget my roots, and still keep in touch with the underworld.

I said okay.

The train ran along the tracks, all the way to the good day, and when I got off the train, I felt that my legs were weak.

Xianyang City is a thousand-year-old city, and when you get out of the train station, you are still attracted by the city's style. Daoist Qiu said to me, Xianyang City, in the past, was a battleground for soldiers, and here can be every piece of loess buried with white bones.

As soon as we arrived in the city, Cao Tianshi suggested that everyone eat something good to make up for it first.

We didn't have any other opinions, so we found a restaurant and started eating, just after a few bites, someone came over and greeted us, and he opened his mouth and said, presumably a few people are not locals, right?

I looked at the man, who was tall and thin, about thirty years old, with moles on his eyebrows and sunken cheeks. His eyes looked a little cloudy. It's not very well dressed either.

Cao Tianshi put down his chopsticks and said, isn't it what?

If the tall and thin man smiled and said no, I have to tell you about the strange things that happened in Xianyang recently. Before he could talk about strange things, he sat down by himself, and asked the shopkeeper to add an extra pair of chopsticks and pour himself a cup of tea.

Just as I was about to pick it up, I covered the cup with my hand. I said to him, "We don't seem to know each other yet, do we?" Isn't it rude for you to sit down and eat?

He laughed a few times and said, "Friend, why do you have to know each other when you meet, you are a guest from afar." As he spoke, the shopkeeper had already waved his chopsticks. I picked up the chopsticks and ate something, and didn't give us a chance to speak at all, he chewed the food and said, "Recently, a strange thing happened in Xianyang City, every night there was a woman sitting under the tree crying, crying was a sad person, there was a good thing, so he went forward to persuade the woman, but the person who went to persuade never came back. And there are more than one or two to persuade you, and so far it is the seventh, so I advise you that if you meet that crying woman at night, it is better not to be troubled.

Cao Tianshi said angrily, make up a story to cheat eating and drinking, right? When I'm done, I'll leave. Cao Tianshi began to get up and drive people away. Soon the tall and skinny man was driven away.

The tall and thin man said to us, Lao Tzu was kind enough to tell you about the matter, but instead of thanking me, you drove me away and turned around to have an accident. and you have good fruit to eat. Cao Tianshi asked him to leave quickly, and after the thin and tall man left, we finished the meal with peace of mind.

When the shopkeeper came to collect the money, I asked a lot, is there really a woman crying at night?

The shopkeeper said, it's true, you should find a place to stay after eating, and it's best not to go out at night.

The look of the shopkeeper did not look very good, it was the afternoon, we found a hotel to stay, and I took a hot shower when I entered the room. I was tired, so I fell asleep not long after.

I don't know how long I slept, in a daze, as if I heard a voice ringing in my ears, I opened my eyes, reached out and rubbed it, and found that the room was still dark, I turned on the light, and the sound outside became clear, like someone was crying outside. When I went to the window, I saw a young girl crying with her head buried in her knees under a tree outside the hotel.

I was still a little confused, but I became a little more sober.

Isn't this the woman who is thin and tall during the day and cries at night? She cried very sadly, and I almost felt compassion when I cried, but I thought that more things were better than less, and it was better to do the right thing, so I closed the window again.

After closing the window, I couldn't sleep myself, tossing and turning, and in the dead of night I heard crying.

I wanted to take another look, but at that moment another voice came from my ear, and he asked, "Girl, are you alright?" ”

The woman said it was fine.

My curiosity came to my mind, and I wanted to open the window to take a look, how happened to the person who comforted the woman in the middle of the night? But when I went to the window, and was about to open it, I heard a scream. I quickened and pushed away, but the outside of the hotel was empty and there was nothing.

I froze for a few seconds, knowing for sure that something had just happened.

I went out of the hotel and looked around, but I didn't find any clues. It's strange, a big living person, disappearing so quickly?

Just as I was about to go back, a beautiful voice came from behind me, and when I looked back, I saw a woman wearing a cheongsam standing behind me, with her slender white legs exposed, and the towering place looked slightly magnificent.

She said to me delicately, "Brother, are you looking for someone?" ”

She is dressed a little charmingly, along with her appearance.

I was suspicious and said, "Are you the woman who sat down here and cried?" ”

She said to me, yes! Brother, people have a poor background, and no one hurts, sometimes it's better to die than to think about it. Brother, would you like to listen to what people have to say? As she spoke, the woman swayed towards me. There is an indescribable charm all over the body.

"Brother, are you willing to help others?"

She got closer and closer, and I asked, "What about the person you were talking to just now?" ”

The woman said charmingly, brother, where was there just now?

When she came to me, she put her hand on my shoulder, and I took a step back, and she was empty, and she said to me, "Brother, don't you feel sorry for people?" She took another step closer, and her movements became a little bigger, and she stepped forward to hug me, and I had just broken free when I saw her open mouth and bite at me.

The fangs and her pretty good face really don't match. I figured out my own axe.

But the woman didn't stop, turned around and quickly disappeared into the street.

A cold wind blew on my face, I didn't chase it, I went back to the room with my heart, and the next morning, when we got together, Xiao Wanwan also asked me, did you not sleep well?

I hummed and didn't deny it. Then I told them what happened last night.

I said to Daoist Qiu, "Daoist, that woman last night was definitely not a living person, but she was not a dead person either. ”

Daoist Qiu said that if it is neither, then it may be a spirit. Daoist Qiu said to me, ignore her for now, she will still come to the door. Let's go to Xianyang City first and find the general surnamed Meng. Daoist Qiu's words stunned me for a few seconds.

Because I haven't had time to tell Daoist Qiu about it.

But considering his ability, it would not be surprising even if he knew it in advance.

After we finished breakfast, we began to inquire in Xianyang City, asking if there was anyone with the surname Meng. But after some inquiry, everyone in the city said that there was no such person.

I thought to myself, my master must not lie to me.

In the end, there was no news about the general surnamed Meng, but the news of the death of a person last night spread in the city, and everyone talked about it, saying that it was a ghost who came out to harm people.

Daoist Qiu suddenly said to me, Zhang Yan, do you want to find a general surnamed Meng?

I hummed.

Daoist Qiu said meaningfully, then you still have to work hard tonight to lure that woman out?

I looked at Daoist Qiu in surprise and asked, "What do you say?" Governor. ”

Daoist Qiu is, this Xianyang City is not trivial, and it can't be measured with common sense, Poor Dao calculated a hexagram last night, but he didn't find any trace of that woman. So, the woman was certainly not in the city.

Cao Tianshi opened his mouth and asked, "Where is that?" ”

Daoist Qiu suddenly smiled and didn't say anything. Cao Tianshi continued to ask, and Daoist Qiu said angrily: "As long as you talk a lot, can't you hide some secrets if you want to do so?" ”

Master Cao, I stood there and thought about it for a while, but I didn't come up with any clues. I asked Xiao Wanwan, "Wanwan, do you understand what the Taoist chief said?" ”

Xiao Wanwan said to me that what Qiu Daochang meant should be that the woman should have another hiding place, but this hiding place is definitely not an ordinary place. I thought to myself, doesn't that mean not saying it?

Soon the time came in the evening, and Daoist Qiu said to me, if I am not mistaken, the woman will come to you in the evening.

I asked Daoist Qiu, "Why is that woman staring at me?"

Daoist Qiu told me that this time is different from the past, and you are different from before.

What's the difference, I ask? Before Daoist Qiu could answer me, a strange cry came from under the window......
