Maoshan ghost hunter

Lao Wan and Chen Maozi both came to Jiangxi to do business. How could they expect to encounter such a thing? That's what they do, but being robbed of everything by a bunch of deserters who haven't become bandits, Lao Wan and Chen Maozi are really hard for me to accept, and they both want to kill each other.

The cost of doing business is gone, and it is meaningless for the two of them to go to the hinterland of Jiangxi. Fortunately, the goods they brought are still there. They plan to find a nearby county after going down the mountain, and sell the goods they brought. At least enough money to go back. Although I didn't make any money this trip, it wasn't too bad. After all, they came to deal with the goods, and they had already caught bandits and didn't bring too much money.

Ye Shaoyang is going to Longhu Mountain, of course he has to keep going.Cuiyu followed him.So the four parted ways at the foot of the mountain.Lao Wan took out his own map, gave it to Ye Shaoyang, and explained to him how to travel, "These places I drew for you are absolutely not allowed to go, these places have been haunted by bandits. "

Ye Shaoyang identified it carefully, pointed to a place not far from him on the map, and said, "Why is this place surrounded? It's also a place for bandits?"

"This is not a place where there are bandits, but an inquisition." Lao Wan said, "You can't go to this place, you must take a detour. Those morticians have many rules, so don't offend them."

"Dead corpse craftsman?" Ye Shaoyang was stunned, "Isn't it only found in the west of Hunan? How come there are also here?"

Lao Wan said: "I don't know, anyway, it is said that it is the public hall and righteous village, and there are a few exorcists who live there, and they are responsible for expelling corpses to the south. You must take a detour, don't run into them!"

Ye Shaoyang thanked him and asked about the details of expelling the corpse.Lao Wan didn't know too well, but he heard that there were a few morticians who lived in the yizhuang for a long time and went to several surrounding counties to get business. Rush back to his hometown for burial.

Chen Maozi had heard a thing or two about expelling corpses and told Ye Shaoyang.Adding his own understanding, Ye Shaoyang finally understood the general situation:

Since the late Qing Dynasty, Huizhou merchants represented by Hu Xueyan have risen, and southern Anhui is very prosperous. Li Hefei also took good care of Anhui politically, so many people from surrounding areas went to Anhui to work. Until the Republic of China, Prime Minister Duan was from Anhui. Anhui is his base camp, so it goes without saying that he attaches great importance to it, and vigorously develops industry.

Some industries are very dangerous, and people often die. At that time, there was no safety awareness. Anyway, people would die in war. As long as there is a bowl of food, no matter how dangerous the occupation is, there will be competition.As a result, there are only a lot of people from surrounding areas going to work in Anhui, and some people often die in other places.

These workers are hard-working people. After death, the family members can't afford to hire a carriage, and they have to travel long distances to transport the body back. Moreover, there are no official roads in many places in the south, even if there is a carriage, they can't get through.But the tradition in China is that Ye Luo returns to his roots. After a person dies, he must be buried back to his hometown.

Chasing corpses has become the best way to transport corpses back to their hometowns.The mortician is used to drive away, the cost is relatively low, and at least a few corpses will be removed at a time, so the money collected by each family is actually not much, which is within the acceptable range of the families of the deceased.

Because people die in other places all the year round, several morticians gathered together and built a yizhuang in a deserted mountainous village. The so-called yizhuang is a place where the dead are parked. Most people in southern Anhui and northern Jiangxi know that When there are dead bodies that need to be chased away, the mortician will take the corpses to the Yizhuang for a while, gather three or five corpses from the same direction, and then drive them back together...

Chen Maozi said that when he didn't go up the mountain before, he heard people talking about Yizhuang in the teahouse. He said that because of the war recently, the roads were impassable, and even rich people couldn't send the corpse home through the main road. , I can only find morticians, so the business of Yizhuang has been very good recently, and there are not enough morticians.

At first, Ye Shaoyang just learned about it casually. When Chen Maozi said that there were not enough morticians, his heart moved and he thought of something.

Lao Wan and Chen Maozi gave Ye Shaoyang some good advice, and then the four said goodbye on the spot. Lao Wan and Chen Maozi went down the mountain to a nearby county to sell goods.

Ye Shaoyang and Cuiyun will continue to the northeast of Jiangxi, to the Yingtan area.

In this dilapidated house, Ye Shaoyang and his two unpacked their luggage and checked it. Most of the dry food they brought was soaked in water and could no longer be eaten. The remaining dried meat was only enough for two people for three days at most.

Originally, according to the plan, they were supposed to enter the county town in one day, and after some shopping, they hired a carriage to go to Longhu Mountain, but now... they have no money, and even food is a problem, and there are hundreds of miles to Yingtan. In the past... even if Ye Shaoyang was not afraid of wasting time, he would starve to death on the way.

Therefore, the most important thing right now is to find a way to make money.

Cuiyun, a country woman, naturally lost her mind when she went to another place, and just stared at Ye Shaoyang in a daze.

Ye Shaoyang didn't even have any ideas, after all, he had traveled through time and lacked life skills in this world, and his only specialty was spells.

"Let's go here." Ye Shaoyang pointed to a place circled with a brush on the map.Cuiyun was illiterate, but the picture was still readable, so he leaned over to take a look, frowned and said, "Isn't this the location of Yizhuang that Uncle Wan said? What are you going there for?"

"Get rid of the corpse."

Ye Shaoyang uttered these two words unswervingly, and when Cuiyun heard it, he was stunned on the spot, staring at Ye Shaoyang in a daze, unable to say a word.

"To make money from corpses." Ye Shaoyang added, shrugging his shoulders, "I don't know anything else, that's all I know."

Only then did Cuiyun realize that he was serious, and hurriedly said: "Hurry up the corpse, have you ever rushed before?"

"No rush. But it should be fine."

Ye Shaoyang scratched his head and said.The technique of driving corpses is a kind of witchcraft in Miaojiang. It is slightly related to Taoist magic, but it is not a real Taoism. The trick, but among the 380 six talismans he has mastered, at least five or six can control corpses. Even if the magic power is not enough now, it is still easy to use the magic talisman to absorb innocently and show off a few corpses.

Cuiyun didn't know the details, and after hearing Ye Shaoyang's reluctance, she immediately became worried, and hurriedly said: "I know you have some magic skills, but you haven't overtake the corpses, those corpses can move, it's scary to think about it, In case something happens, what should we do? If it’s not going to work, you’re strong, why don’t you go to a nearby county town and do something to make money..."

"It's definitely not enough to work as a coolie." Ye Shaoyang said, "With so many refugees now, the most indispensable thing is coolies. Even if you find a job, the money you pay is too little, how long will it take to earn money? If you drive corpses, although you can make money It’s not much, it’s probably enough to take a trip.”

Cuiyun didn't want Ye Shaoyang to go, but Ye Shaoyang promised that nothing would happen, Cuiyun couldn't hold him back, so he had to listen to him.

Ye Shaoyang looked at the marks on the map. It was about a hundred miles from here to Gongtang Yizhuang. If he walked, it would probably take a day or two. The dry food on the two of them was enough to get there.

Ye Shaoyang didn't delay any longer, he greeted Cuiyun and hurried on his way.Along the way, Cuiyun was always worried about the three small yellow croakers that were robbed, and she was very depressed. She always felt that it was her own responsibility for losing Ye Shaoyang's wife, and Ye Shaoyang could only comfort her in various ways. For Cuiyun's kindness, he was moved a little more.

Regarding the process of being robbed, Ye Shaoyang occasionally remembered, thinking of that guy named "Little San", who wore some unusual magic weapon on his body, which made a hundred ghosts invulnerable.

Ordinary people absolutely don't have magical artifacts of this strength.

But compared to this incident, what Ye Shaoyang can't forget even more is what the mistress did: in a few words, he persuaded his chief and his companions to become bandits, and he could shoot and kill the fleeing companions without hesitation.

This is a very deep and ruthless person. If he does not die in the future, Ye Shaoyang believes that he will definitely become a remarkable person, and even grow into a hero.

Ye Shaoyang was very curious about his real name, and even more curious about his life experience after becoming a bandit.But this has nothing to do with me.

Because it had just rained, the soil was wet and slippery, and they walked very slowly. The two walked until it was dark, followed the lights, and entered a small village in the deep mountains. Mother, seeing that there were only two of them, a man and a woman, she readily let them in.

Later, Ye Shaoyang found out that although this area is a deep mountain, it is a node in the direction of this generation of mountains. People who hike into the mountain often pass by this small village and spend the night here. The locals are used to it.

This family is an old couple. When Ye Shaoyang and Cuiyun arrived, they were lighting a fire and cooking. Cuiyun naturally went to help, and they got close to the aunt, and they quickly became acquainted. Afterwards, the four of them ate together , Since entering the mountain, Ye Shaoyang and Ye Shaoyang have never eaten rice cooked by a firewood stove. It is really a great enjoyment to drink hot rice porridge now, and it is more fragrant than anything they have ever eaten.

Ye Shaoyang swallowed a mouthful of porridge in satisfaction, glanced at Cuiyun, and found that Cuiyun was also looking at him, both of them understood each other's thoughts, and smiled at each other.

While eating, Cuiyun chatted with the old couple, and learned that the family’s surname was Liu, and they had three sons, one of whom was enlisted in the army, the other went to school in Guangzhou, and only one was doing small business in a county not far from the foot of the mountain, occasionally going up the mountain. visit them.

When asked about herself, Cuiyun lied that she and Ye Shaoyang were siblings, and they came to Jiangxi to seek relatives, but because they encountered bandits, they had to walk here.When the old couple heard this, they felt even more pitiful.

Ye Shaoyang asked them about the surrounding situation. The old couple said that this village is called Sigu Village. The reason why it has such a strange name depends on the ancestors of the village. It is said that the ancestor of this village was a General, because of avoiding disaster, he took a group of relatives and subordinates to hide here, opened up mountains and rocks, cultivated land by himself, was self-sufficient, and lived a life like a peach blossom garden. After the Ming Dynasty fell, the descendants of the general also got used to it. The environment in the mountains has been reproduced.

Because of the arrival of guests and the sweetness of Cuiyun's mouth, the old couple were very happy. Old man Liu excitedly took out the five-poison wine he made himself, and asked Ye Shaoyang to taste it.

Ye Shaoyang knew it was not a good thing as soon as he heard the name. Sure enough, after old man Liu opened the wine tank, Ye Shaoyang took a look and found poisonous substances such as scorpions and centipedes in it. In order to save face, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and catch the wine glass he handed over.

Old man Liu poured him a glass of five-poison wine, but he said that he couldn't drink this kind of wine when he was too old, so he went to another vat to make some rice wine and drank it by himself. "The name of the village "Thinking of the Old Village" means to miss the old master. Younger, do you know who our ancestor is?"

Ye Shaoyang shook his head.

"The ancestor of our village was a general under Emperor Jianwen of the Ming Dynasty. His surname was Liu and his name was Tong Zhan. He helped Emperor Jianwen defend the city and made great contributions."

"Oh, it's amazing." Ye Shaoyang complimented, and the image of Emperor Jianwen Zhu Yunwen appeared in his mind.

"Let me tell you, Emperor Jianwen didn't actually die back then. According to what my ancestors left behind, Emperor Jianwen ran to the south, then crossed the ocean, went to an isolated island, and died there..."

Ye Shaoyang smiled. These folk rumors and unofficial history are always far from the real history. If he had never met Emperor Jianwen, he might really believe it. However... just before he came to this world, he still talked to Emperor Jianwen He had fought side by side, not to mention the first time they met, he beat him until his wits died, and killed his wife.

These old events, when I think about them now, it feels like a lifetime away, but they are so vivid, as if they are right in front of my eyes.

Regarding the whereabouts of Emperor Jianwen, of course Ye Shaoyang would not say anything, so as not to be regarded as crazy by old man Liu.But... He suddenly thought of a fact: Emperor Jianwen of this era is still staying in that ancient tomb... If he has enough strength, he can even release him.
