This is the fifth bowl of water I drank tonight, in fact, I am not thirsty, I just don't want to sleep until dawn, I need to get up in the middle of the night to see what is going on in the front hall, this has to start from a month ago when the shopkeeper Qi Yunliang met Li Tiezui on the set.

A month ago, I and the shopkeeper Qi went to the set to do the goods, and happened to meet the famous Li Tiezui in the city, Li Tiezui saw the shopkeeper Qi, and hurriedly came up to say hello, when asked about the situation of the restaurant, the shopkeeper Qi immediately frowned, sighing, indeed, since the emperor was driven out of the Forbidden City, the world is completely chaotic, today is President Yuan, tomorrow is Cao Dashuai, this Shenbei City belongs to the three provinces of the junction, today Commander Bai has been once, tomorrow is Li Dashuai again, every time, the people of Shenbei City have suffered from the seedlings, Strong men and women, our Juxianlou is dominated by soldiers every day, and the hospitality of good wine and food is not paid, and if the two sentences are not right, they will be slapped in the face, and in the past three days alone, I have been beaten twice

"Wuzhi Mountain", the common people have gone out of the city to escape the disaster, the surrounding restaurants are also down, the pass, this Juxianzhuang is Qi Yunliang's ancestral family business, when the old shopkeeper Qi Yuxiang lived, this Juxianzhuang is also one of the best restaurants in Shenbei City, upstairs and downstairs, the lights are brilliant, but the old shopkeeper smoked the Fushou ointment, and within a few years, the restaurant was tossed with such a façade, and he also smoked himself, before leaving, he pulled Qi Yunliang, who had just returned from studying in the provincial capital, and told him, It is no longer difficult to sell Juxian Building, lying on the bed staring at Qi Yunliang with big eyes, Qi Yunliang sighed, nodded ruthlessly, and the old shopkeeper swallowed this breath.

So until now, Qi Yunliang has not closed Juxian Building, Li Tiezui asked this, I scolded in my heart, isn't this a matter of lice on the bald man's head, how many restaurants are left in the city now?

You eat all the big and small restaurants in the city, can you know if people give the nickname Li Youzui? You can't open which pot you want.

This Li Tiezui saw the bitter gourd on the face of the shopkeeper Qi and snorted happily, he was happy, the shopkeeper Qi looked at me, I looked at the shopkeeper Qi, the two were stunned at first, and then the shopkeeper Qi's face was red, and his fists had begun to creak, I also clenched the flat shoulder in my hand, looked at Li Tiezui's height, and finally targeted his legs, thinking that as long as the shopkeeper shouted, he immediately discounted this grandson's legs.

As soon as Li Tiezui saw the two of us like this, he quickly smiled, pulled the shopkeeper Qi to a secluded place and said: "The shopkeeper misunderstood, I laughed because you met me today, and our store still has the rescue, just ask the shopkeeper Qi if he has the courage", and then lay on the ear of the shopkeeper Qi, muttering something, the shopkeeper Qi's eyes lit up first, and then smiled bitterly twice, shook his head, Li Tiezui looked at it and quickly said

"Don't believe it, shopkeeper, I'll go to you this afternoon, and I'll tell you carefully, I promise that as long as you follow my plan, within ten days, you will see results!" After saying that, he left without looking back, leaving me and the shopkeeper Qi stunned in place, looking at his match-like figure, limping and disappearing into the crowd.

This Li Tiezui is a foreigner, no one remembers what his real name is, since he said that he grew up in the Taoist temple from SD, the orthodox Quanzhen school, since he was a child, he learned "Six Yao Bagua" and "Ziwei Doushu" with his master, he can not only catch demons and ghosts, but also touch the bones and weigh the catties, the most proficient is the feng shui of the house, his legs are the result of inadvertently leaking the heavenly machine and being punished by God when telling fortunes to the president, whenever it comes to this, Li Tiezui will definitely look up to the sky and sigh: "Fate is destined to have this catastrophe!" ”。

In fact, no one takes his rhetoric seriously, which one of the fortune tellers in these years does not say that he is the reincarnation of the immortal spirit child, as soon as the soldiers come, one by one rolled up the cover faster than the rabbit, this Li Tiezui does not go, he said that he watched the stars at night, secretly arranged the plate, he couldn't go, and there was a lot of wealth waiting for him, in fact, everyone knew that he didn't go because he was worried about the widow of the king in the north of the city.

So Li Tiezui's words in addition to Qi Yunliang plugged, did not have any effect, did the goods and returned to the store early, because there were no guests, the chef of the back kitchen took leave to pick up the old lady in the countryside, the store had a day off, the kitchen guy went to the gambling game, shopping, the store was left with me and the shopkeeper Qi, after eating at noon, the shopkeeper Qi was settling accounts, I heard someone knocking on the front door, I opened the door and found that it was Li Tiezui outside the door, and when I came to the store, the shopkeeper Qi let Li Tiezui into the inner room, plugged in the door, I was so strange outside, This Li Tiezui is just a fortune teller, can he really make this Juxian Building make a comeback?

The two talked until dark, and the shopkeeper ordered the kitchen apprentice Wang Er, who had just come down from the gambling game, and was bragging with me about how to kill the Quartet today, to go to a few appetizers, I heard that I hurriedly went to warm a pot of wine, and the wine and food were sent into the inner room, and the shopkeeper Qi plugged the door again, and the two continued to talk secretly, until late at night, Li Tiezui left, lying on the table outside and had slept for two nights, I went in to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, the shopkeeper looked at the lights on the table blankly, and suddenly looked up and asked me: "Xiaofeng, do you believe in ghosts?" I was suddenly stunned, I didn't know what to say, the shopkeeper shook his head and said: "It's not early, go to sleep after cleaning up", to be honest, of course I believe that there are ghosts, when I was in Ci'an Hall, I often heard older children tell the story of ghosts and gods, it is said that Ci'an Hall was built on a mass grave, and later leveled the ownerless lonely grave to build a Ci'an Hall, and Ci'an Hall will have some children who die every year, and they are also buried on the hill behind Ci'an Hall, At that time, the disobedient children were scared and said that they would be punished to sleep alone on the hill at night, and then the bold children heard this and immediately behaved like sheep, I remember one year, I had diarrhea at night, the thatched house was in the courtyard, and it was convenient to get up in the middle of the night, just came out of the thatched house, and the corner of my eye saw a green and faint light, which floated towards me little by little, by the moonlight, I tried hard to see what the light was, but I couldn't see clearly, the green light was getting closer and closer to me, I remembered that this should be the ghost fire they said, At that time, I only felt that my scalp was numb, and the clothes on my body were soaked with cold sweat, I wanted to run, but I couldn't open my legs, and a stream of heat flowed out from between my legs, and then a wild dog came out of nowhere, barking at the green light, and a sound of Wang, as if a thunder sounded in my ears, I was suddenly awakened, and ran back to the room, and the next day I not only washed my pants, but also was fined to do 50 more soles, and was not allowed to eat at noon.

So when I heard the shopkeeper Qi talk about ghosts, I couldn't help but feel shocked. I was an orphan and was thrown at the door of Ci'an Hall, and my old Liu Tou said that I was wrapped in a cotton coat with three words in it

"Zhang Xiaofeng", I don't know if it's the name of the owner of the cotton clothes or the name that my family gave me, since then, I'm called Zhang Xiaofeng, but no one in Ci'an Hall is called that, because the partners around me are either dogs or Erya, and suddenly come out with such an official name, it sounds very uncomfortable, so everyone calls me Xiaofeng, Lao Liu Tou said that when I picked me, I found that I had a big birthmark on my back, the birthmark was too big and the shape was too weird, I thought it was an infectious disease, but Lang Zhong saw it, and said that there was nothing wrong with it, just like that, I stayed in Ci'an Hall until I was 12 years old, according to the regulations, 12 years old had to fend for myself, just two days before leaving the old Liu Tou took me to Juxian Building to pull swill, usually the old Liu Tou took Dabao to go, as a result of today Dabao fever, bedridden, I temporarily topped this shortage, at that time Juxian Building was the time of the wind and water, the shopkeeper Qi Yuxiang looked at my appearance Zhou Zheng, asked a few words and answered normally, then agreed with me to do a lot of work in Juxian Lou in the future, no wages, but food and housing, Since then, I have stayed in Juxian Building.

Qi Yunliang took me to the market again early the next morning, and bought some incense paper candles very strangely, I thought about the old shopkeeper's tail seven for a long time, what to do with these things?

But I didn't dare to ask. Qi Yunliang was absent-minded all day, his brows were furrowed, and he sighed from time to time, at night, the guests were gone, I packed up and stopped, ready to close, Qi Yunliang suddenly called me: "Don't close the door", I asked curiously: "Shopkeeper, are there any guests coming?" It's all like this", at this time I found that a trace of panic flashed in Qi Yunliang's eyes, and a cough suddenly came from behind me, and as soon as I turned around, Li Tiezui was standing behind me;

"Shopkeeper Qi, have you thought about it?" , Qi Yunliang nodded, and then instructed me: "Xiaofeng, it's okay for you, go back to sleep", I hummed, and just as I was about to leave, I heard Li Tiezui ask Qi Yunliang: "There is no one else in this store except this kid, right?" Qi Yunliang snorted, and Li Tiezui said to me: "Boy, don't come out when you hear any movement, remember!" I turned my head to look at Qi Yunliang, Qi Yunliang also stared at me, I turned around and said to Li Tiezui, and went back to the house.

However, I didn't expect that this time I ended up with a human life and a ghost case, and my life was completely different from then on.
