When they came to Fengdu County, Zhou Qiao and a few people found that this Fengdu is the same place as the rumored "Xudu", it has a special nickname also called "Ghost City", which represents the hell of the underworld in the rumors, and is the place where the dead live in the netherworld, and the land is at the intersection of the two worlds of yin and yang, which is the watershed between the world and the ghost world.

Zhou Qiao and the three of them drove the corpse of the female ghost to walk on the side of a road in Fengdu County, near the evening there were few pedestrians on the street, Zhou Qiao found a veil to cover the whole body of the corpse, and the fat brother and Yang Gan did not attract the attention of others under the cover.

Zhou Qiao found that this Fengdu County deserved to be called a ghost town, they didn't go far and had already seen several shops doing coffins and feng shui business on the street, the street was scattered with all kinds of paper money, and the pedestrians on the road were not surprised at all, obviously they were used to it!

Walking and walking, I came to a grocery store in the center of the county, and the signboard said that the five characters of the He family grocery store were written, and according to the female ghost, her family lived in a small courtyard behind the grocery store.

It was just before evening, but the shop had already closed for business, so Yang Qian stepped forward and knocked on the door

"Knock... Knock knock..."

After waiting for a while, I heard footsteps, the door of the store was opened from the inside, and out came a middle-aged man about forty years old wearing gray cloth clothes, the man was thin, pale, and his eyes were blank, and he looked like he was sick, and he should be the father of the female ghost.

When the thin man saw Zhou Qiao and the others, he asked, "Who are you?" Is there something wrong? ”

Zhou Qiao and the others didn't say anything, they just took a step back, and casually removed the mask of the female ghost corpse behind them, revealing her face. The man was stunned for a moment, and when he saw the corpse's face clearly, he suddenly stood in place, and it took a long time to come back to his senses, tears fell down, and his knees fell to the ground with weakness, holding the corpse of the female ghost and crying bitterly

"Xiaoxiao, my child, ......"

The man cried heartbreakingly, crying to the end of the cry was no longer crying, as early as when his daughter disappeared, he regretted it, regretted that he should not have sent his daughter to the cannibalistic church, regretted not believing his daughter's words at the beginning, he originally had a ten-thousandth hope that his daughter was still alive, and now seeing his daughter's body, he knew that his daughter had left him forever, and he didn't even have a chance to compensate him, thinking of this, he couldn't help but be even more grief-stricken, and threw himself on his daughter's cold body, crying sadly.

Alas, I knew that this was the case, why bother in the first place, the old father of this female ghost said pitiful and pitiful, say not pitiful, for so many years, he has never fulfilled his responsibility as a father, but it is a pity that his so cute and beautiful daughter, she is not even a minor and has not had time to enjoy the beautiful life of this world, so she died like this, Zhou Qiao muttered in his heart

Listening to the middle-aged man crying for a long time, Zhou Qiao didn't know how to comfort him, and held back a sentence for a long time

"Uncle, you... Condolences change! ”

After waiting for the man's mood to stabilize a little, Zhou Qiao explained the origin of his daughter, and the man choked up while wiping his tears after listening: "Thank you, thank you for helping to send my daughter back." "

"It's okay, it's just a gesture."

Zhou Qiao looked at the environment of the store and continued: "Isn't your wife at home?"

The man raised his head and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and said, "Alas, she, since the child disappeared, I have been separated from her, and I blamed my brain for being confused and being instigated by her to send the child into that wolf's den, and now even if the intestines are repentant, my child will not come back...... Now I'm the only one left here," He Zhiguo's face was gloomy, full of melancholy, and he couldn't hide his sadness for the lonely days when he was about to face the future.

After a while, he said, "Come in first, I'll make you a cup of tea, you have worked hard this big night!" ”

Zhou Qiao and the three of them did not shirk, and the three of them and the middle-aged man put his daughter's body into a clean courtyard at the back of the grocery store before they came to the outside chair and sat down.

There was a table in the courtyard with some miscellaneous items on it, and soon a pot of steaming tea was brought to the table, and there was still smoke, and the courtyard was soon filled with a faint smell of tea.

"A few little brothers, please drink tea, if you don't dislike it, you can stay here for one night for the time being!" The middle-aged man poured tea for them

Bian said politely.

Looking outside, it was already as dark as night, "That... It's a nuisance! Zhou Qiao and the others picked up the teacup and thanked them.

"You're welcome! My name is He Zhiguo, you can just call me Uncle Zhiguo! ”

"Uncle Zhiguo, please find an auspicious day for your daughter's body to bury as soon as possible, so that she can rest in peace as soon as possible!"

Zhou Qiao looked at He Zhiguo and whispered.

Hearing Zhou Qiao's words, He Zhiguo's face hesitated, sighed, took out a box of cigarettes from his pocket, took out a few and handed them to Zhou Qiao and the others.

Zhou Qiao and the three of them stopped smoking and hurriedly excused themselves, He Zhiguo saw this, took out a match from himself, lit it, took a few puffs and muttered:

"Well, I know that, but... It may have to be postponed for a few days."

He Zhiguo continued, "Because the day after tomorrow is the annual Ghost Festival, in our case, it is said that on the 15th day of the seventh month of the lunar calendar, the ghost gate will be opened, and a hundred ghosts will walk at night.

Although I don't know Feng Shui, I know that I can't commit taboos since I was a child, and I have to be very careful about this kind of festival, and I am also afraid that my daughter's body will be attacked by evil spirits during the burial, and it will be bad if it causes trouble! ”

"Oh, I see! I didn't expect it to be the Midyear Festival coming, no wonder we came all the way and saw that there were few people on the street, and the money ......was flying around," Zhou Qiao and the three suddenly realized.

"This night, a few little brothers have nothing to do, and they still try not to go out at night, so as not to be targeted by evil ghosts! During the day, you can walk around and see the capital city and the ghost gate in the sun, we don't have anything else here, but some feng shui magic tools are still quite famous, and after July 15, I will bury my daughter as soon as possible, and then it will be considered a wish to end. ”

Zhou Qiao, Yang Gan and the fat brother were already exhausted after a day's journey, and they didn't pay attention to the empty house arranged by Uncle He Zhiguo, Zhou Qiao slept on the only bed in the house, which was actually a slightly musty quilt on a board, Yang Qian and the fat brother made a bunk, and after a while, they snored like thunder......

Zhou Qiao soon fell asleep, and the female ghost named Xiaoxiao in the dream was grateful to him, even if she could see her father again after the yin and yang, she was still happy, knowing that her father had repented and her wish had been fulfilled......

As soon as Zhou Qiao woke up the next morning, he saw a chubby figure swaying in front of him, and when he opened his eyes, he saw a stupid face smiling at him

"Damn, who is this!"

Zhou Qiao was startled and almost screamed!

"Haha, Brother Zhou, you're awake!" Yang Qian walked in with a smile from outside the door

"What time is it? You guys got up so early," Zhou Qiao rubbed his forehead and said a little confused

"It's almost noon, I didn't expect you to sleep better than me, Brother Zhou!" Yang Qian teased

"Uh... Ha ha...... Isn't it a long time since I've slept in bed, I'm tired," Zhou Qiao touched his nose and said embarrassedly

Seeing the chubby little boy next to him silly, Zhou Qiao looked at Yang Qian and explained it

"He... Uncle Zhiguo said that he was from the house next door, and when he was a child, he accidentally fell into a well, but fortunately it was a dry well, and he was rescued in time to pick up a small life, but it may be that he was frightened too much and was stupid, and now he is a fool"

Uncle Zhiguo said that this child used to always like to run around with Xiaoxiao, and then Xiaoxiao went to school, and this stupid child was locked in the house by his family, and occasionally let him go outside to play.

Zhou Qiao saw that the child was only six or seven years old, with a chubby face and a round little belly, so he couldn't help but reach out and touch his head, "What's your name?" "
