At that moment, the hairs on Jiao Dahong's whole body stood up. The old stubborn man's death still appeared in front of him, but now he saw the old stubborn man.

His muscles tensed, but he slowly stepped back. His eyes were fixed on the gray shadow in the corner, for fear that he would find out. He stepped back a distance and looked at the strange gray shadow from a distance, he seemed to be a little wrong, his shadow staggered but did not enter his door.

He looked at the closed door and was a little worried, if the old stubborn man entered the room, Shen Zezhi and them would be in danger. He glanced over there and slowly walked to the back of the house. I want to go around from behind to find the village chief.

At this time, Shen Zezhi, who was sleeping in the room, suddenly opened his eyes, he took his clothes and put them on, pushed open the door and came out. The moonlight outside was nice and the things in the yard were clear at a glance. He glanced at the courtyard gate and walked towards it.

At this time, Jiao Dahong found that the gray shadow trembled and seemed to be pushed back, and sure enough, it disappeared when it went to the shadows. At the same time, the door of the courtyard was opened, and Shen Zezhi walked out. Shen Ze saw Jiao Dahong sneaking under the courtyard wall opposite at a glance, and he found that Jiao Dahong's expression was not quite right, and he understood it after thinking about it. It seems that there was really something outside the courtyard just now, and this Jiao Dahong has seen it.

He walked over and looked at Jiao Dahong and said, "You're not tired, stay all night." ”

Jiao Dahong looked at him vigilantly, struggling a little in his heart, he felt that he should tell him what he had just seen, but he was afraid that Shen Zezhi would not believe it, because since Shen Zezhi appeared in the village, he had always been very hostile to him.

Shen Zezhi knew what he was thinking when he saw Jiao Dahong like that, and he said, "If you have anything to say, let's go in and talk about it, if something happens outside, I won't be able to save you." ”

Jiao Dahong instantly remembered the gray shadow outside the door just now, and he immediately followed Shen Zezhi into the courtyard. He could see that Shen Zezhi was a capable person, and his courage was not ordinary, so he probably shouldn't be afraid of any messy things.

After the two of them came in, Ji Ziyue also woke up, he walked out of the room with sleepy eyes in his clothes, Shen Zezhi looked at the light from the window and said, "Go back and rest." ”

Ji Ziyue rubbed his eyes, glanced at Jiao Dahong, and immediately became energetic: "It's okay." ”

Jiao Dahong didn't have the idea of resting now, his mind was full of the picture just now, and then he was scared. The old stubborn man was dead, and everyone in the village saw it. If the shadow just now was really stubborn, then what he saw was ...... Ghost? Jiao Dahong shivered instantly.

Ji Ziyue looked at him inexplicably, thinking to himself, is it cold on dog days?

Shen Zezhi naturally knew what was going on, and he said, "Let's go in and talk about it." ”

After entering the room and getting inside, Shen Zezhi gave Jiao Dahong a cup of hot water, and didn't ask him, just watched him hold the cup and drink water. Ji Zi was more curious to death, he especially wanted to know what happened between Shen Zezhi and Jiao Dahong just now, why Jiao Dahong's expression was so strange.

After a long while, Jiao Dahong spoke: "I saw it just now...... I saw a ghost. ”

Ghost? Ji Ziyue glanced at him in surprise, and then his gaze unconsciously drifted to Shen Zezhi. Shen Ze's natural way Ji Ziyue was thinking about something, he muttered: "Ghost? Do you see clearly? ”

Jiao Dahong swallowed his saliva and said, "I can see it clearly, it seems to be an old stubborn." ”

Shen Zezhi nodded, he was not surprised at all. The old stubborn man died at the hands of a female ghost, and he definitely couldn't go to the underworld for a while. Thinking of this, he thought of the bloody purse that the female ghost gave him, and said to himself that he had to find a time to ask for impermanence again.

Jiao Dahong asked: "You, aren't you surprised?" Don't you believe what I'm saying. I really ......."

Shen Zezhi raised his hand to interrupt him: "I believe it." ”

Jiao Dahong looked at him speechlessly, I believe that he is still so calm, you give a surprised expression.

Shen Zezhi didn't have the patience to grasp his thoughts, so he asked directly: "How is the old stubborn man's reputation in the village?" ”

Jiao Dahong nodded: "It's good." ”

"Huh? Is it? Shen Zezhi raised his eyebrows and looked at him.

Jiao Dahong raised his hand and clenched it into a fist to his mouth, coughed before he whispered: "The dead are great, and it is not good to talk about the dead." ”

The corners of Shen Zezhi's mouth curled: "That's not good." ”

Jiao Dahong thought about it and simply said: "It's not bad, I just heard that he was quite muddy when he was young, and his mother-in-law was beaten away by him." ”

Shen Ze's heart jumped and asked, "Oh? I thought they were divorced! ”

Jiao Dahong shook his head: "No, I heard that he was beaten by his stubborn uncle, and then he ran away by himself when he couldn't stand it." ”

Shen Zezhi asked: "Someone saw her leave, or did she leave suddenly, you just heard about it." ”

Jiao Dahong thought for a while: "I left suddenly, and I didn't say hello to others." Later, it was rumored that she was beaten away by Uncle Stubborn. ”

Shen Zezhi had a plan in his heart, and he said: "You can stay here tonight, it's not safe at night recently, you still don't want to go out at night." ”

Jiao Dahong remembered what happened just now, and nodded with palpitations. After that, Jiao Dahong knew what Shen Zezhi had dodged for him last night.

Early the next morning, there was a bang on the door of the old stubborn man's house. Shen Zezhi had already gotten up, was squatting on the ground brushing his teeth, he drank saliva and rinsed his mouth, wiped the towel clean and walked over to look at the door. As soon as the door was opened, a few half-sized children outside immediately rushed in.

"Is Brother Da Hong here with you?" A boy asked politely.

Before Shen Zezhi could speak, Jiao Dahong had already heard it, he walked out and frowned and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

These people were relieved to see that Jiao Dahong was safe and sound. Everyone gathered around Jiao Dahong, and the boy who spoke just now said in a low voice: "Brother Dahong, something happened again." ”

Jiao Dahong's heart sank: "Something happened." ”

The boy said: "Sister Yingzi of the Dacheng family is dead. ”

Jiao Dahong was surprised: "What? ”

Shen Zezhi also heard their words, and his eyebrows furrowed. When Yingzi had an accident, his first reaction was a female ghost. But when you think about it, it doesn't seem right. The female ghost has reached an agreement with him, and she should not continue to kill people for the time being.

The boy said again: "I died in front of Uncle Stubborn's mourning hall, my eyes widened, I heard them say that Sister Yingzi seems to have been scared to death by life." ”

After listening to this, Jiao Dahong said, "Let's go and see." ”

The other boys followed him out. Kiko Yue came over and asked, "How could Yingzi die?" It can't be an old stubborn, right? ”

Shen Zezhi said: "Let's go and see it too." ”

So Shen Zezhi and Ji Ziyue also went to see it, and when they arrived at the place where the mourning hall was set up, he saw Yingzi lying on the ground in front of the mourning hall. The mourning hall in the countryside is simply a large shed supported by plastic sheeting, in which a coffin tablet and an offering table are placed.

The people in the village came, and this time no one spoke, and the atmosphere was tense for a while, so that people didn't dare to take a big breath. Shen Zezhi walked over and reached out to touch Yingzi's Yin Tang, and his face immediately changed.

The village chief carefully observed Shen Zezhi's expression after seeing him coming, and when he saw him like this, he asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Shen Zezhi said in a low voice: "Yingzi's death is not simple, her soul is gone. ”

The village chief said, "Of course, the dead have no souls. ”

Shen Zezhi shook his head: "No, you don't understand what I mean. I mean, 'no,' no,' it's gone. ”

The village chief's eyes widened violently, and he understood what Shen Zezhi meant. Then, Yingzi's death must not be man-made, or it cannot be done by ordinary people. Ordinary people don't have the ability to make people's souls fly.

He looked around as if he remembered something, and his face turned pale. Shen Zezhi asked, "What's wrong?" ”

The village chief looked at him with a complicated expression and said, "You come with me." ”

Shen Zezhi and Ji Ziyue followed the village chief, and the villagers looked at each other, they didn't know what the village chief was going to do, but they believed in the village chief very much.

Shen Zezhi followed the village chief to an antique place, and the village chief stopped and said, "This is the ancestral hall of the Jiao clan in Jiaojia Village. According to the rules, you are not allowed to go in. However, the matter is urgent. ”

After speaking, he went in first, and Shen Zezhi and Ji Ziyue followed him unceremoniously in the ancestral hall. People say that things are urgent, and he is polite.

After entering the ancestral hall, there was a hall in front of him, and there were dozens of tablets in it, looking at so many tablets, Ji Ziyue couldn't help but feel numb in his heart.

The village chief went to the pillar incense first, and then walked behind with Shen Zezhi and Ji Ziyue. There is a small house here, the house has no windows, only one door. There was also a rusty iron cable on the door. The village chief took out the key to unlock the door and pushed the door. After the door opened, Shen Zezhi saw that there was also an offering table inside, there was no tribute on this offering table, but there were two tablets, and there were still a few runes standing on the tablets, but the rune papers on the right tablet were broken.

When the village chief saw it, he immediately walked over a few steps, and when he saw it clearly, he sighed and said, "I knew it was like this." She's out. ”

Shen Zezhi had a faint guess in his heart. Kiko asked, "Who came out?" ”

The village chief pointed to the rotten tablet and said, "She's out." ”

Shen Zezhi and Ji Ziyue looked over together, and the word Yao Xianxian was written on the tablet. Knowing that the village chief was talking about this person, Shen Zezhi said that the female ghost was called this name. He went to look at another tablet, the owner of this tablet is Jiao Yanzhi, a very elegant name, I don't know who took it. Didn't you say that he was an orphan?

Shen Zezhi already knew that this was his husband that the female ghost Yao Xianxian said. But of course, this can't be shown, and he pretended to be puzzled: "Who are these two people?" ”

The village chief sighed and began to tell Shen Zezhi and Ji Ziyue a completely different story from the one Yao Xianxian had told him before. Shen Ze was not sure whose words were true for a while, and neither Yao Xianxian nor the village chief looked like they were lying.
