Chapter 18: The Longevity Lock

Chengbai knew that ghosts were the most deceiving, but for some reason, when he saw the eyes of the female ghost, what he felt was the sincerity in her eyes.

Is she really as harmless as she appears? Perhaps, after all, he just stunned Li Sijiu at the beginning, and didn't kill him.

But Cheng Bai still kept an eye on it, he remembered that in a classic TV series in his previous life, there was a classic line that impressed him deeply: the more beautiful a woman is, the more she will deceive people.

What's more, it's a female ghost.

"Tell me, what the hell are you looking for here?"

Zhiqiu Yiye does not have the consciousness of pity and cherishing jade, in his eyes, ghosts are ghosts, and they are the existence of heaven and earth.

The female ghost's eyes were flickering, obviously a little hesitant, but when he saw the indifference in Zhiqiu Yiye's eyes, his heart suddenly trembled, and he said, "I, I'm actually looking for a long-life lock." ”

"Longevity lock?"

Zhiqiu Yiye was stunned and said: "You are a lonely soul and wild ghost, what's the use of wanting a long-life lock?"

The female ghost hurriedly said: "No, no, it's not for me." ”

Longevity locks, as the name suggests, can be worn to live a long life, but for the most part, this is just superstition.

According to the folk saying, as long as you wear this ornament, you can ward off disasters and evil, "lock" life, many children from the birth of short, hung this ornament, until adulthood.

The female ghost's original name was Su Fang, and after marrying into the Xu family, she changed her name to Xu.

The Xu family is a partial house of the Xu family, ranking thirteenth, because of her status as a concubine, her status in the Xu family was not high, until one day she was pregnant with Xu Youcai, and Xu Cai and her movement gradually increased.

Later, Xu Youcai was born, and Xu's status also rose with the tide, and other wives and concubines were very dissatisfied with this and began to oppose Xu's everywhere.

At first, their actions were just petty fights, and Xu didn't pay attention to them, but by the time she really realized that she had become the target of the public, it was already too late.

At that time, not long after Xu Youcai was born, an unknown monk told her that when he became an adult, there would be a catastrophe.

Xu believed it to be true, and went back to her parents' house to ask for a long-life lock for him, and then that afternoon, she hurried back.

However, when she returned to the county, she was unexpectedly intercepted by a killer.

In order to save his life, Xu desperately escaped, but in the end he was blocked by the killer in a desperate alley.

Seeing that her life was short, Xu was quite unwilling, she was worried that the longevity lock would be discarded and destroyed after death, so before she died, she used all her strength to throw the longevity lock into the wall behind her.

Later, Xu was killed, thrown into a deserted well, and then the county ordered the case to be closed by bandits for money and murder, and the whole process was as fast as if it had been arranged.

Therefore, this incident did not cause the slightest splash in Montenegro County.

For Xu Cai, Xu was just a concubine, and he didn't care about her death at all, so he agreed to the result of the county order without looking at it.

After that, Xu's resentment could not be eliminated, and after more than ten years, he finally turned into a ghost, and then he couldn't wait to come to the place where he died to find the longevity lock, but found that this place was unrecognizable.

But she didn't give up easily, so she began to search every night.

......

Xu's story was slowly told, but everyone fell silent for a while.

The content of the story is really touching, but it is also very ordinary.

Because in the Shang country, this kind of thing happens almost every day, but it is precisely because of the ordinary that people do not know what to do.

Xu's maternal love is so admirable and lamentable, but it seems that only she herself regards the longevity lock as one thing from beginning to end, and if she sees Xu Youcai's squishy appearance now, I don't know if she will be angry and blackened directly.

Cheng Bai was having a headache about how to solve this matter, and inadvertently saw the second pillar walking past him, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

"Erzhuzi, where did the longevity lock around your neck come from?"

Erzhuzi stopped, scratched his head and said, "Oh, young master, you said this, this is what I found when I went to the thatched house in the afternoon, and I thought it looked good at the time, so I put it on." ”

Cheng Bai's face was suddenly covered with black lines, and he found it in the thatched house?

How big is your heart, don't you know how to wash before wearing it?

It's a shame for my left family.

"Haha, Erzhuzi, your luck is really good, come, let your young master try this longevity lock. ”

Zhiqiu Yiye finally seized the opportunity to become white, how could he let it go easily, although he didn't get along much with Erzhuzi, he already fully understood his character.

He can now say with great certainty that he can't see through Erzhuzi's character at all...... Well, I don't understand it at all, but it's about the same as I understand it completely.

"Oh, young master, here you go. ”

Erzhu took off the longevity lock from his neck and handed it to Cheng Bai, he was so angry that he really wanted to beat him.

However, he didn't notice Cheng Bai's disgusted eyes, which were still getting closer and closer.

Cheng Bai seemed to see a piece of 10,000-year-old getting bigger and bigger in his eyes, and his face suddenly became more and more ugly.

"Hehe, boy, you can take it. ”

Knowing the way of schadenfreude in the autumn leaves.

It's really relieving, see if you dare to lose your master's shoes in the future.

At this moment, Xu suddenly said loudly: "Huh?

"Familiar? ”

Cheng Bai was as amnesty as he was, and pushed the hand of the two pillars in front of Xu.

Xu Shi took the longevity lock with trembling hands, and carefully observed it a few times, and finally determined that this was the longevity lock he had lost, and his eyes suddenly became excited.

"That's right, that's it, that's it. ”

Xu Shi was so excited that he subconsciously put the longevity lock on his face and rubbed it gently.

Cheng Bai didn't have time to remind, so he could only watch the other party make such a disgusting action.

That's a pit picked up, hey, why don't you wash it first?

Looking at Xu's close contact with the longevity lock, Cheng Bai only felt that there were countless worms wriggling on his face, he really had a habit of cleanliness, really.

Fortunately, Xu's action didn't last long, so she put down the longevity lock, looked at Erzhuzi and said gratefully: "Thank you." ”

Erzhuzi didn't know what was going on until now, and looked at the female ghost in front of him blankly.

"Alright, you go down first. ”

Cheng Bai was worried that he would embarrass himself again, so he hurriedly said.

Zhiqiu Yiye saw that he couldn't make it white, and he could be said to be very disappointed in his heart, but he still had an indifferent expression on his face.

Now that Xu has obtained the long-life lock she dreamed of, it stands to reason that she should be released directly, after all, she has not caused any substantial damage to the dart game.

But no matter how Cheng Bai thought about it, he felt that this matter could not be so simple.

The Xu family always wants to see Xu Youcai now, even if she can really get her wish at that time, can she let go of her hatred for Xu Cai and reincarnate with peace of mind?

If the Xu family saw Xu Youcai's current appearance and washed the Xu family in a rage, then Heishan County didn't know how many innocent people would suffer, which was not what Cheng Bai wanted to see.

Hey, that's a nuisance.
