Chapter 161: Digging a Grave

On the way to the broken temple, the more Duanyang thought about it, the more frightened he felt, so he went to a half-immortal's house in the middle of the road, knocked on the door and asked for a spirit rune. The half-immortal told him that as long as he attached the ghost slaying talisman to the ghost's body, the ghost would be gone, and it would never trouble you again.

With the spirit talisman given to him by the half-immortal, Duanyang finally felt much more down-to-earth, so he hurried to the broken temple......

Outside the ruined temple is a lonely grave, the ancient trees cover the sky, and the black shadows of the ancient trees are shaking in the cemetery under the moonlight, which is even more gloomy. I've heard the old man talk about the ghosts that have been making trouble here for decades, how can Duanyang not be afraid?

Fearfully walking through the lonely cemetery, he entered the broken temple, the broken temple was still lit with oil candles, the lights were on, and a man was sitting on the ground in the broken temple, this person was not Yuqing, who else would there be.

Now that Duanyang saw Yuqing again, he was naturally frightened, and he didn't dare to step forward when he stood at the gate of the temple. When Yuqing saw him coming, he asked him why he was so late tonight?

Duanyang squeaked for a long time, and finally asked him, who are you?

Yuqing was stunned for a moment, and then said I am Yuqing, your brother, don't you even remember me?

When Duanyang heard this, he asked Yuqing in a panic: "Why are you lying to me, you are obviously a ghost, and you still say that you are my brother." ”

Yuqing suddenly laughed, and he said: "How could I lie to you, I obviously said that I have lived here for a hundred years, but you don't believe it." ”

Duanyang's heart fell to the bottom of the valley at once, knowing that Liu Zi and the old man outside the grove really didn't lie to themselves, this Yuqing was really a ghost. His back was wet all of a sudden, cold sweat fell, he threw down the good wine and food in his hand, and said Since you are a ghost, how can you still be my brother separated by yin and yang, and I can't send good wine and food here from today.

How do you know that Yuqing refused, and told Duanyang, we made an agreement, I will teach you spells to gamble money, and you will send me wine and food, how can you talk now and not count?

Duanyang saw that this ghost really didn't follow, so he thought about what to do if he really haunted me in the future, it was better for me to stick a spirit rune on him and kill him.

Thinking of this, he slowly walked towards the ghost, then took out the spirit rune, and was about to slap it on the ghost's body. At this time, the ghost also found out, and hurriedly jumped up and said: "You have no conscience, I am kind enough to help you, not only teach you spells, but also take out the gold ingots from your coffin and give you a copy, and now you are rich but want to kill me!" ”

Duanyang was startled, knowing that this time he really angered the other party. At this time, the ghost Yuqing continued: "I see you pitiful, although you eat, drink, prostitute and gamble, but your heart is not bad, I think I still want to give you all the gold ingots in the coffin in the future, but you are so ungrateful." ”

As soon as Duanyang heard that there was no gold ingots in his coffin, he was immediately a little moved, but now that money is compared to his life, no matter how greedy he is, he will not dare to come nonsense. So he said to the ghost, it's not that I want to harm you, it's not that I'm not untrustworthy and ungrateful, it's because you're a ghost, I'm a human being, and I'm afraid.

After hearing this, the ghost sighed and said, "Although I am a ghost, I will not harm you, and I have helped you, what are you afraid of?" ”

Duanyang shook his head desperately, where would he not be afraid, he had heard the old man say that if you stay with the ghost every day, the ghost will pretend to be a good person at first, the purpose is to blow out the three yang fires on your body, and when the time comes, maybe your soul will be hooked. And he has also heard a lot of stories about female ghosts hooking men, at first a hundred were good, but in the end they absorbed the man's yang energy.

Thinking of this, Duanyang was one hundred people who didn't dare to call this brother brother anymore, he said: "The elder brother is good to me, and the younger brother also knows." But we are separated by yin and yang, even if you really want to be good to me, I can't come to drink with you every night, if it's fate, let's be brothers in the next life! ”

The ghost said, "Since you say so, then I don't force it, as long as you let me go today, don't hurt me with the talisman, and don't do that ungrateful thing, we will still be brothers." When the time comes, if you don't have any money to spend, you can come to me, and I have gold ingots in my coffin, and you can take them. ”

As soon as Duanyang heard the ghost say this, he was really moved, so he nodded and agreed. Then the ghost told Duanyang that there was a lonely grave under an old locust tree a hundred meters away from the temple gate, and that was where my coffin was.

At this point, the ghost sighed and said, "Originally, I also planned for you to enshrine my bones in your home, so that you can win every gamble, and your family will definitely be rich." Alas, that's it, everything is fate! ”

After speaking, Yuqing turned around and walked out of the broken temple and disappeared without a trace......

Originally, this matter was over here, and the ghost promised not to trouble him, but after Duanyang went back, his gambling addiction did not change, and he was bored in the casino every day as before, gambling in the dark, and sometimes he didn't even want to go home.

However, since the separation from Yuqing in the broken temple, Duanyang's luck has not worked, that is, every gamble must be lost, and he has never won. In less than half a year, the family fortune that had just become rich was gambled by him again, and finally sold the house, owed a large amount of foreign debts that could not be repaid, and the debt collector came to the door to ask for debts in three days, which made Duanyang's family miserable.

Maybe someone will say, didn't he recite the spell that Yuqing taught him when he gambled?

In fact, Duanyang will recite that spell every time, but since the separation from Yuqing, this mantra has not worked at all, it's okay not to recite it, and a thought is even more unlucky.

Changed back to the poor, it was okay before, but now it is a family and has children. Duanyang was so addicted to gambling and gambled bankrupt, his wife didn't want to live with him, he was scolded by his wife every day at home, and chased by loan sharks every day outside, Duanyang felt desperate again.

In this despair, Duanyang suddenly remembered what the ghost in the broken temple had said before, saying that there was a lonely grave under the locust tree a hundred meters outside the temple gate, and there were gold ingots in the coffin in the tomb.

He had also thought about whether to take the gold ingots in the coffin before, but at that time he still had money to spend, and he was worried that the ghost was deliberately deceiving him, so he never had the courage to take the gold ingots in the tomb. But this time it was different, this time he was penniless, and if he didn't make some money, not only would his wife leave him, but he would also be chased and beaten by loan sharks.

As the saying goes, if this person is poor and crazy, the concepts of honesty and morality are not important, Duanyang thought about it, and now he can't live without money, so it is better to go to the coffin of the Yuqing brothers to get some gold ingots to use.

Duanyang thought to himself, although it was not good to dig other people's graves, but he couldn't be blamed for this, because it was Yuqing himself who had said it before, so he thought to himself that even if he really dug up the grave, it was estimated that most Yuqing would not blame him. Besides, now that he has reached such a field, he really has no other way.

One night, he picked up a hoe and went to the suburbs, and walked into the grove alone in the middle of the night with a flashlight. Into the depths of the woods, he came to the ruined temple.

The ruined temple is the same as half a year ago, overgrown with weeds, desolate and dilapidated, with layers of pine and cypress withered vines, surrounded by mounds, and the lonely and low tombs overgrown with weeds look so eerie and terrifying in the moonlight. In addition, Duanyang heard the old man say before that the wilderness and lonely tombs here are often haunted, and they can scare people half to death during the day, and the situation is in the middle of the night.

However, in order to get the gold ingots and go back to turn over the book, although Duanyang trembled with fear, he still stepped forward.

Walking through the low graves, you can see the exposed black coffins from time to time, and some of the graves are even exposed to the white bones, which shines with a strange cold light in the moonlight, which makes people feel chills in their hearts.

Duanyang walked forward with a flashlight, and kept thinking about the lonely grave around him. Then, according to what Yuqing said more than half a year ago, he finally saw an old locust tree a hundred meters away from the broken temple, he hurriedly stepped forward and walked over, and sure enough, there was a lonely grave on the old locust tree, which was quietly located there.

Duanyang knew that this should be Yuqing's grave, so he first called out softly a few times to the Yuqing brothers, but in addition to the squeaks of crickets, there was only the whirring mountain wind around, and there was no response from Yuqing at all.

But at this time, Duanyang couldn't care so much, he folded his hands and bowed a few times, and said: "Brother Yuqing, the younger brother has been very bad luck for half a year, and he has lost all the money he earned before, and now he can't live anymore, so I want to come to the old brother to borrow some money for the time being." If the younger brother turns over the book another day, it will definitely be returned twice as much. ”

With that, he rolled up his sleeves, picked up his hoe, and began to dig......
