Chapter Ninety-Seven: Departure

was scolded by me like this, and the shopkeeper shook his head violently and said that there was no such thing, saying that he believed in ghosts and gods very much and never dared to be disrespectful. But the wife on the side was obviously stunned, her eyes widened in shock, her mouth was open in a daze, and she exclaimed for a long time: "Ah! I...... I remembered that I thought it was in the middle of July this year that I used water to destroy the money paper that people had burned. ”

When I heard this, I rejoiced and said, "Yes, that's it, that's it!" ”

At this time, the man on the side was so shocked that his mouth opened wide, turned his head to look at his wife in surprise, and asked, "You...... You ruined the money paper that people burned? ”

In fact, not only the shopkeeper was surprised, but even the old professor and the three young people at the table next to him were shocked by the proprietress words. Especially the three young people, who had been talking about me as a liar pretending to be a ghost, when they suddenly heard the proprietress say this, their eyes widened in surprise, and their faces were full of incredulity.

Yes, in their eyes, I am a liar who pretends to be a ghost, and I am also a foreigner, how can I know what happened to the proprietress two or three months ago.

At this time, the woman's face turned white with fright, and he asked me in horror: "Sir, is it really because I ruined other people's paper money last time that I got into trouble?" ”

I nodded: "Yes, why do you think you would splash other people's paper money with water, isn't this your own guilt?" ”

Yes, I don't understand this matter, it stands to reason that people in this kind of mountainous area are very superstitious, and it is impossible to do such a foolish thing for no reason.

Sure enough, the woman shook her head in fear and said, "No, I didn't mean to." ”

Then, the woman told me that on the night of Halloween on July 15, her husband went back to his eldest brother's house to burn paper money for his parents, leaving her alone at home to watch the store. At night, the street was full of braziers and paper money, so she was very scared, closed the door early, and hid in the room on the second floor and did not dare to go out.

Before going to bed, she washed her feet in the room, because she didn't dare to go downstairs to pour water, so she poured the footwashing water directly through the window.

She was also startled at the time, but she stared at the brazier for a long time, but she didn't move, so she didn't take it to heart the next day.

Speaking of this, the woman looked at me with an innocent face, took my hand and begged: "Sir, you have to help me, I really didn't mean to, I was afraid that day, so I accidentally splashed water in the brazier." Woo......"

When she said this, the woman cried in fear. You know, she just saw me talking to the air in the store, and it was clear that the woman knew that the ghost was in the store right now.

After listening to his wife's story, the man was also frightened, and understood that he had indeed done something wrong, so he hurriedly begged me to help with this.

Seeing that both of them regretted their mistakes, I also knew that this would be easy to do, so I said to them: "It will be easy for you to admit that you have done something wrong, let me tell you the truth, you offended a mother-in-law, who came up to collect paper money in the middle of July, but was washed away by you with a basin of water. And she didn't receive the paper money burned by her mother-in-law's family, so don't you have to suffer below, you have no money to spend, no clothes to wear, you really hurt your mother-in-law! ”

When the husband and wife heard this, they knew that they had indeed made a big mistake, so they nodded again and again and said that it was their own fault, and asked me to talk to the mother-in-law and not embarrass them anymore.

I said, "Actually, you should also know that the mother-in-law is already in the store, well, how about I make a decision for you?" ”

When the two of them heard me say that my mother-in-law was indeed in the store, their faces turned white with fright, and they dared to talk more, so they nodded violently, saying that everything was up to me.

Of course, at this time, the old and three young people watching the excitement at the table next to them were also staring around with wide eyes, obviously wanting to see where the mother-in-law was.

Now the shopkeeper and his wife have also admitted their mistakes, and they are willing to listen to me for everything, so I turned to my mother-in-law and said: "Mother-in-law, you also heard, the eldest sister did not mean it, and she also regretted her previous mistakes. ”

The mother-in-law didn't seem to be angry, she glared at the woman resentfully, and said hatefully: "I've been crying for a few months by this woman, is it just enough to lose some money?" Unless she gives me three rings and pays me several times the money, I won't let her go like this. ”

Hearing this, my face changed and I said, "Mother-in-law, you are not good, as the so-called forgiving and forgiving people, why force others like this?" What's more, you have already harmed her a lot, and even the yang fire has been blown out twice by you, if you continue to think about it, don't regret your life! You don't need me to remind you of the punishment for asking for your life, do you? ”

When my mother-in-law heard me say this, her face changed and she showed fear. Yes, people have been tossed so badly, and if you still care, you just have to be unforgiving, which is a bit excessive.

In fact, ghosts are the same as people, reasonable, after hearing me say this, the ghost mother-in-law finally sighed and said: "That's it, then I'll just let her go for your sake, otherwise I will never spare her!" ”

I was relieved to hear that she had accepted the conditions I offered, and then I said to her: "I will help you decide this matter, you can go down and wait, she will burn the paper money later, you can just take it below." ”

Speaking of this, I asked my mother-in-law's name, and then I straightened my face and said coldly: "Go, don't come to trouble anymore!" ”

The mother-in-law glared at the woman, and wanted to say something, but when she saw me with a straight face, she finally had to sigh and recite the word, and then quietly walked away, turned around and waited.

At this time, the shopkeeper and his wife saw that I had turned around, so they hurriedly asked me if I had finished talking.

I nodded and told them: "Mother-in-law is gone, but you can't be disrespectful anymore, this promised thing must also be done, wait for her to burn paper money, burn more is not a bad thing, if the mother-in-law is too little, then it will not be so simple for her to come up again." ”

When I said this, I said it with a straight face, but to the horror of the two of them, the lady nodded violently, and as she said this, the man ran out of the store, saying that he was going to buy paper from the paper shop. At this time, although it was night and most of the shops were closed, they knew each other in a small town like this, so he was going to knock on the door to pick up the goods.

Actually, I also deliberately scared them, worried that they would not do things carefully. You must know that this is my master's decision for my mother-in-law, and if it is not done, my mother-in-law will come to me to settle accounts. Although I won't be afraid of her, but I can't help it, I can't beat her away, right?

Soon, the shopkeeper brought a load of yellow paper, and burned it all in front of the store. And this matter is settled.

After doing this, when I returned to the store, the proprietress had already fried several dishes and put them on the table, because she had resolved the trouble, she was happy, and she also called the old and three young people at the table and invited them to drink together.

Sitting together, the owner and his wife were naturally grateful to me and toasted frequently. And I also learned that the old and the young, the old ones are indeed professors in the university, and the two men and one woman, and the three young people are the students of the old professor.

The old professor was full of respect for who I was, and thought that my profession was mysterious. The three young men below him were the complete opposite, looking at me with a cold, unfriendly look in their eyes. Maybe I think I'm still a pretending ghost.

However, to my surprise, when the shopkeeper asked me if I was here to see feng shui, and I told him that I wanted to go to Temple Mountain, the old professor on the side exclaimed, saying that they were also preparing to go to Temple Mountain, saying that this time it was a companion.

Doesn't this surprise me, how can this old man and three young people, four cultural people, go to that kind of deep mountains and old forests, and they are not afraid of danger?

When I asked, I learned that the professor was specialized in botany, and I heard that the vegetation in the temple mountain was primitive, and the mountain was full of treasures, growing more than 200 kinds of herbs such as Codonopsis, Gastrodia, Wolf Venom, Ganoderma lucidum, He Shou Wu, etc., as well as the precious ginseng, the king of herbs, so I wanted to take three proud students to investigate.

At this time, the shopkeeper and his wife on the side were in a hurry, he was like Wang Quan, when he heard that we were going to Temple Mountain, he immediately showed a frightened expression, saying that he couldn't go there, otherwise the mountain god would blame him, and he wouldn't be able to live.

The professor and his three students were naturally full of smiles, and they didn't care about the mountain god, but I felt a little less optimistic, the ordinary gods were blessed in the hearts of the people, but why did the mountain god of this temple mountain make the people so afraid? Obviously, this mountain god is not a good stubble.

I wanted to learn some things about the mountain god from the shopkeeper, but he only knew that when he went to the temple mountain, the mountain god would blame, and Wang Quan didn't know much about the mountain god.

In this way, we thanked the shopkeeper for his kind reminder, and the next day, I left the town with the professor, a group of five, and set off for Temple Hill.

It's just that what we didn't expect was that this time we went, it would be a nightmare to greet us.
