I glanced at Mr. Lu with apprehension: "Fortunately, you stopped me." Otherwise, I will become the next Mr. Chai. ”

Mr. Lu smiled and said proudly: "At that time, I already saw that something was wrong. Suicide is such a thing as suicide for everyone. How could the bull head and horse noodles let us go so lightly? ”

I thought about it for a while, and said to the eldest prince: "I want to live a normal life, and I don't like to participate in the empty house, after I find the old ancestor, can you let me go?" ”

The eldest prince looked at me twice as if he was looking at a monster, and then said, "I can't decide whether you go or stay, and after you find the old ancestor, he will make the decision." ”

This sentence upsets me, I thought to myself. Are the people in the empty house too domineering? Why should I be accused by you?

If it had been before, I would have reluctantly agreed. But now it's different. I said, "Aren't you taking me too seriously by doing this?" ”

As soon as I said this, the Yin Ghost Woman was obviously a little nervous. Obviously, she could tell that my tone was wrong, so she winked at me.

If it had been in the past, I would have seen the ghost woman and had to hide. But since the appearance of the eldest prince, my opinion of her has changed a lot. Because I found out that she has been defending me, consciously or unconsciously.

The eldest prince sneered and said, "We take you very seriously, you are very important." Without you, how would we find our ancestors? How to revitalize an empty house? To tell you the truth, some of the devils are gradually not taking our empty house seriously. That's because we're in Taoguang, and if you think you can on our necks, then I don't mind showing you how I do it. ”

The eldest son's words made it clear that he was going to tear his face with me. I looked at Mr. Lu next to me. He was now so weak that he couldn't do anything at all. In fact, even when Mr. Lu was in his heyday, he didn't dare to do it here. Virgin Li.

I grinned, trying to pretend to be contemptuous, and smiled. The eldest prince was unforgiving, and said, "Zhao Mang." You'd better be polite to me. You are now the only clue to find the ancestor, that's true. I really can't touch you. But what about after finding the ancestor? You're not going to be of much use. When the time comes, I will kill you, and it will be a matter of one word. ”

When I heard this, I couldn't help but gasp.

The eldest prince stood up and patted me on the shoulder: "So, you'd better be polite to me." You will do whatever I tell you to do. Don't shirk. ”

At this moment, I made up my mind to learn Taoism from Mr. Lu.

I sat on a stool with a gloomy face, not wanting to talk to the eldest prince anymore. Mr. Lu sighed and asked on my behalf, "When will your ancestor appear?" ”

The eldest prince shook his head: "He didn't say it." Maybe three or two days, maybe three or two months, maybe three or two years. You don't have to worry, how you lived and how you live now. When the ancestors want to see you. Naturally, there will be news. ”

Then he turned around, smiled maliciously, and asked me, "Is there anything else?" ”

I didn't say anything, just shook my head slowly.

The eldest prince said, "That's good. I will send two palanquins to send you back. ”

Mr. Lu was stunned for a moment and asked, "Ghost carrying a sedan chair?" Isn't it the dying that can sit on it? ”

The eldest prince looked at the two of us and said, "Aren't you the ones who are dying now?" ”

Then he went outside.

A few of us walked behind, and the Yin Ghost Woman said with a laugh behind me: "Zhao Mang, you don't have to be afraid. The eldest prince won't touch you. I have heard that when the old ancestor was leaving, he told him that if he found someone who passed the guò test, he should respect this person as he respected him. ”

I nodded, and suddenly said, "No wonder you all knelt down to me." ”

The Yin Ghost Woman said: "Yes, so after the old ancestor comes back, no one will dare to harm you." When the time comes, if you want to be an ordinary person, no one will stop you. You relax. ”

As soon as the Yin Ghost Lady said this, my originally hardened heart began to soften again. I thought to myself: If I say that, I don't seem to need to learn Taoism. Isn't it just waiting for someone in an empty house?

However, I looked at the thin figure in front of me, and my eyes became cold again: "Dao art still needs to be learned, I always feel that this kid has bad intentions." You have to have a skill to defend yourself. ”

When we walked outside, Gu Yue was waiting for us. When they saw me and Mr. Lu coming out, they all came over to thank them in person.

I was surrounded by ghosts, snakes, and gods. While they clearly had no ill intentions, I still felt a little hairy.

I asked the ghost, "What does this mean?" How can you thank me? It seems that you have a very deep relationship with that old ancestor. ”

The Yin Ghost Woman smiled and said; "They are grateful to you, on the one hand, because of your ancestors, and on the other hand, because of you. Because every year of testing, each city's empty house has to send a representative. Most of the people sent out from the empty houses were their own children. These little ghosts all failed, and when they went back, their vitality was greatly damaged, and the end was very miserable. And the owner of the empty house will also be punished. In short, if you pass the test today, you will be spared our hard labor. ”

Mr. Lu smiled next to me and said, "If you are not careful, you have become a great benefactor of the empty house." ”

I smiled bitterly and said, "Look at the face of the eldest prince, do I look like his benefactor?" ”

Mr. Lu smiled and did not speak again. The surrounding cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods surrounded us and walked out of the ancient tomb.

I silently thought to myself, "I really can't imagine that one day I will meet so many ghosts, and I am not afraid." ”

When we walked out of the tomb, we found that it was a large area of wilderness. It was dark outside and the air was cold. I was thinly dressed and shivering as I stood on the ground.

That's when I remembered that I had been sitting in the tomb for three months, and it was already winter outside.

I took two greedy breaths of air and muttered, "I'm alive, I'm alive again." ”

Mr. Lu hurriedly said beside me: "Zhao Mang, don't get excited. The two of us are very weak now, and if we faint, I'm afraid we won't be able to slow down. ”

As soon as I heard this, I quickly shut my mouth.

In the middle of the wilderness was a sedan chair that was extremely wide. There are a total of eight imps in front and behind the sedan chair, apparently preparing to carry the sedan chair.

Mr. Lu looked at me and said with a smile: "This thing is an eight-lift sedan chair." ”

I waved my hand and said, "Don't joke about such a scary thing, what if you have a psychological shadow and don't dare to marry a daughter-in-law in the future?" ”

The eldest prince made a gesture of please next to the sedan chair. Mr. Lu and I sighed and had to get in.

The eldest prince said outside the sedan chair: "Before dawn, you two can go to Huaicheng, and after you go back, take care of yourself, and your body will recover." ”

Then he said, "Let's go." ”

Mr. Lu and I sat in the sedan chair and waited for a while, but the sedan chair never moved. I was wondering when a white hand lifted the curtain of the car.

Then Gu Yue staggered in. She lowered her head and said a little shyly, "My father asked me to give you a ride." I didn't want to come, but ......"

Mr. Lu hurriedly pulled me to the side and said, "Sit down." ”

The sedan chair was originally very spacious, more than enough for two people. But if you sit for three people, it's a bit crowded. In addition, the sedan chair carried by those little ghosts was not too stable, and it dangled all the way. I'm really worried that before I can reach Huaicheng, my fragile body will be crushed first.

Halfway there, I suddenly heard a rooster crow. Gu Yue, who was sitting next to her, was startled and said, "It's dawn so soon?" ”

She lifted the curtain and asked, "What's wrong?" Why is it dawn so soon? ”

The little ghost carrying the sedan chair was also puzzled and said, "Is it dawn?" I don't think so. ”

Gu Yue said, "Then let's go on." ”

The little ghost carried the sedan chair for a while, and suddenly stopped. Then a little imp came in, looking at the three of us suspiciously.

Gu Yue cautiously asked, "Is there an accident?" ”

The little ghost looked solemn and said, "The weight of the sedan chair doesn't seem to be right." We just felt the sedan chair sink suddenly, and something came up. ”
