He also wanted to say a few words to this female ghost.
……
"I'll go with you!"
Back at Lanruo Temple, Ning Caichen turned on the lamp overnight to fill up the ledger, and did not dare to stay here alone after dawn, and rushed to Guobei Town with Chen Wei.
Just after leaving the jungle, Chen Wei paused, with a strange expression on his face.
"What's wrong?" Yan Chixia noticed something strange and asked back.
"It's okay... let's go."
Chen Wei came back to his senses, smiled, and led the horse to leave.
Yan Chixia muttered: "It's weird, I don't know what I'm doing!"
Along the way, he always felt that Chen Wei was hiding something from him, but every time he asked Chen Wei, he would not tell.
Shaking her head, Yan Chixia greeted Ning Caichen to follow.
……
The three of them had just left the forest, deep in the wilderness, Lanruo Temple suddenly disappeared like a dream.
Chapter 230 I Can't Eat This Meal!
"Ah, this one looks a bit like it!"
"Do you want to take it back?"
"Officer, it's not me! It's really not me!"
"Stop talking nonsense! Take it away!"
"Officer! You are wronged! I have a mother!"
"Troubleshooting! Hit me hard!"
As soon as he entered Guobei County, there was a sound of begging for mercy from a distance on the street. Following the sound, several yamen officials wearing red scarves were forcibly escorting a peddler to the county yamen jail.
The people nearby just watched with cold eyes, and after the little official left, they continued to work on their own, as if it was commonplace.
……
"Hey, this is the inn, you can rest here, I just want to go in and collect the bill."
Ning Caichen pointed to an inn beside the street, and took the lead to go in.
"Boss, I'm back again."
As soon as he entered the door, the boss raised his head and saw Ning Caichen, and screamed in fright, almost knocking down the bar behind him.
After Ning Caichen explained the reason for his visit and showed the rewritten ledger, he still couldn't believe it:
"Did you really live in Lanruo Temple?"
"Of course!" Ning Caichen smiled slightly and took back the ledger.
"Should I pay the 70 taels written in the account book?"
The shop owner was startled and frightened. He just felt that this scholar was not simple, so he didn't dare to pay any more credit.
This is the person who came out alive after spending the night in Lanruo Temple!
Which family in Shiliba Village, Guobei County didn't know that there was a ghost in Lanruo Temple. Even the county government officials were afraid of that place, and the few waves of government servants sent out to investigate did not come back alive.
Not only the boss, but the people next to him heard the conversation between Ning Caichen and the boss, and also recognized the poor scholar who came over yesterday to collect money. When they heard that he came back alive from Lanruo Temple, they all surrounded him in shock, Whispering next to him.
……
Chen Wei and Yan Chixia were also in the inn, sitting by the window, and invited the waiter to serve good meals.
Ning Caichen put the silver in the bag, came over to thank him, and said that he would take advantage of the festival to go out for a walk. Yesterday he saw a picture of a beautiful woman washing her hair on the road, and he still misses it. Today, with the silver, he wants to Going to buy the painting.
Yan Chixia waved his hand, and Chen Wei nodded his goodbyes.
Just in time for the Obon Festival, the market in Guobei County is now more lively than usual.
It's just that in addition to the common stalls on the street, there are more paper-making men and charms selling. From a distance, you can see peddlers selling portraits of door gods.
Suddenly, a suona sounded, playing sad and solemn music, the faces of people on the street changed slightly, and they retreated to the sides in a panic.
Chen Wei looked through the window, and saw a yellow-robed Taoist priest walking slowly in the direction of the sound of the suona, throwing yellow paper in his hands as he walked, and servants holding white paper lanterns on both sides, with a big memorial ceremony written on it. After the words, there is the Suona team, and then there is the endless paper bundle team like a long dragon. These paper bundles are different from the ones sold in the nearby shops. They are not only more delicate, but also much more gorgeous than the paper bundles.
……
Chen Wei asked: "Which family is this noble person dead?"
"No!" Yan Chixia shook her head, took a sip of her wine, "It's because the Yulan Basin will start soon."
Chen Wei understood, no wonder the team was so large, it turned out that it was going to be a practice meeting.
In this world, the Dharma conference is a very solemn event. It is a kind of sustenance for the living to liberate their dead relatives.
In their cognition, through the Yu Lan Puja, the injustice of the dead can be eliminated, so that they can enjoy peace in the underworld.
It is hard enough to live, but not to suffer after death!
Therefore, this festival has been passed down, and it has become more prosperous and grander every year, and now it has become the biggest Dharma conference every year!
……
No wonder they are superstitious, because this is indeed a world with demon cultivators.
But sadly, the power of gods and Buddhas in this world is not manifested, only demons roam the world.
In the end, the Ullambana Festival was nothing more than enshrining demons and goblins, allowing unjust ghosts to enter the city majestically and stir up trouble.
Not only Chen Wei could see it, but Yan Chixia could also see the ghosts mixed in the team.
These guys usually dare not enter the county town for fear of being overwhelmed by the popularity, but recently it is the ghost festival, and the puja is set up to commemorate them, so they follow behind the team one after another, looking at the scene on both sides of the street curiously and greedily.
There are lonely souls and wild ghosts, but there are also demons and ghosts mixed in.
When the team passed in front of the inn, there was a starving ghost lying in front of the window, looking at the food on Chen Wei's table, showing a greedy expression, stretching his head over, wanting to inhale.
The corners of Chen Wei's eyes twitched, and he looked at Yan Chixia. On the table were only the meals Yan Chixia ordered herself.
He didn't like his appetite, so he didn't order anything.
Surprisingly, Yan Chixia didn't drive away the starving ghost, but threw a steamed bun over.
"It's not easy for these guys. They starved to death while they were alive, and after death they are also in the weak position among ghosts. They won't survive for long. If they can't be reincarnated, even if they don't dissipate by themselves, they will be eaten and devoured by other ghosts."
The starving ghost wolfed down the steamed buns, refused to leave, and looked up at the food on the table.
Yan Chixia snorted coldly, and the starving ghost ran away without a trace.
……
The queue was long, and it wasn't just starving ghosts.
Chen Wei looked at all kinds of ghosts mixed in the team with a lack of interest, children, old women, women in rags...
Suddenly, Chen Wei blinked and met a ghost.
A gray ghost!
The gray-clothed ghost is not the same as other lonely ghosts. Surrounded by black air, it is not completely human. With sharp teeth and pitch-black claws, it looks like a beast instead of a human.The lonely ghosts around him avoided it far away, for fear of being attacked and eaten by it.
It was originally looking at the surrounding scene with great interest, and its eyes especially stayed on pedestrians for the longest time.
Suddenly it felt that someone was watching it, its neck stiffened and turned 180 degrees, so it saw a young man silently looking at it.
It got excited, screamed, and flew over.
This kind of person who can see ghosts has much higher aura than ordinary people, and if he eats it, his power will increase greatly!
But as the distance got closer, he suddenly discovered that the young man was not afraid of him at all.
"Is he a Taoist priest?"
A thought arose in the gray-clothed evil ghost's mind. His spiritual intelligence was similar to that of his life, and some memories had also been revived. He vaguely knew that Taoist priests are very powerful professions.
It's a pity that at the dinner table, Chen Wei was dressed like a rich man, while Yan Chixia looked like a martial artist.
……
"Pfft!"
Just as the gray-clothed ghost rushed to the window, Chen Wei picked up the chopsticks on the table and inserted one end between the ghost's eyebrows.
Then the evil ghost was like a deflated doll, the black energy on his body exploded, the evil ghost flew back, rushed left and right, and then disappeared with a bang.
Yan Chixia threw down the bowl and chopsticks in disgust, a little speechless.
It was so disgusting, the food on the table was sprayed with resentment by the evil spirit, and the aroma of the rice was washed away!
I can't eat this meal!
……
Chapter 231 Don't Go!
"I hate these newly formed ghosts the most!"
After the memorial procession passed by, Yan Chixia repacked some food, and left the inn with Chen Wei.
Lonely ghosts are not harmful, big demons know taboo, and will not attack in a daze if they can't figure out the details of the other party. Only these ghosts, whose memory has been restored but not fully recovered, are smarter than lonely ghosts, but their brains are lacking .
So when I see some human beings with high spirituality, regardless of the three sevens and two ones, they instinctively go forward to swallow the breath.
Just like those seventeen or eighteen-year-old gangsters in the society, they think they are invincible in the world, relying on their recklessness, they are not afraid of the sky and the earth.
Such a ghost, either was lucky enough to become a ghost king, or ran into a Taoist priest and lost his soul.
Obviously, this grey-clothed evil spirit was not so lucky.
……
The two got on their horses and prepared to continue on their way.
Suddenly I heard Ning Caichen shouting from behind: "Hero Yan, Xiongtai Chen, wait for me! Don't go!"
Turning around, I saw Ning Caichen leading an old horse towards the two of them.
Seeing Chen Wei and Yan Chixia stop waiting for him, Ning Caichen looked happy and was about to get on his horse and catch up.
But before Ning Caichen got on his horse, there was a commotion in the rear!
A group of officers and soldiers rushed over with knives, their faces excited and insolent:
"Who told you not to leave?!"
"The magistrate of the county arrests people, whoever shouts, don't go!"
"Wow! Don't go!"
Looking left and right, the people around him fled away one after another, only Ning Caichen stayed where he was, neither on a horse nor not a horse.
The person who had just shouted was not found. Seeing that Ning Caichen was still here, a small official stepped forward to grab it and put it on Ning Caichen's neck. He said fiercely:
"Come down! Tell me, did you tell me not to leave! Where is the suspect!"
"Where is the suspect! Tell me!"
"Yes, speak up!"
Ning Caichen tilted his neck back in fear, and said in fear, "What suspect?"
The little official stared:
"Still quibbling! Say it!"
"I think you may be an accomplice of the suspect, come with us!"
"That's right, come with us!"
……
Ning Caichen was planted as an accomplice of the suspect just by saying a word, and was about to be taken to prison.
Yan Chixia frowned, and rode over.
