Ghostbuster

On the way, the people did not encounter the ecstasy formation again, even if the walking corpses passed by, they didn't even glance at them, this trip was extremely easy.But the bad thing is that no one who set up the formation was found, and no spiritual power was found.Even Gan Yungui, who was originally happy, furrowed his brows thoughtfully, looking very cautious.

There is a thick accumulation of snow everywhere, and occasionally the wind will blow some dead branches and some snow will fall off. The footprints of each step are called ghosts to disappear.Most of the places in the woods are similar, but the signs along the road are still a bit distracting.

Looking at the snow-covered hills, it was almost evening, and everyone still found nothing.Worried about the late night on the return journey, everyone was going to go down the mountain to make plans even though they were discouraged.

Along the way, Gan Qingsi was very quiet. The yin energy in the mountains allowed him to circulate his ghost power, making him more sensitive to the surrounding situation. Although he could not perceive the spiritual power, the ghost power was still clear. He suddenly asked, "Little Tong, you Have you only encountered walking corpses for a few days?"

Bai Tong also realized the meaning of his question, and replied, "Since the day we came, there are only walking corpses."

Everyone was confused for a while, Jiang Yifa asked, "What does this mean?"

"Brother Wulang, have you ever seen a place where there are many walking corpses without even a single soul?"

Jiang Yi thought for a while, and said, "No wonder I feel something is wrong. There are many deserted graves on the road. Even if the body is dead, there will be no ghosts. Could it be that someone here has searched for the soul? In this way, Baijia must have nothing to do with it. "

"That's right, there are only walking corpses here, presumably the corpses are ordinary people, someone with a heart uses this to attack the person in the ecstasy formation, and destroys their soul in order to protect themselves." Gan Qing said.

Bai Tong said, "After Ajiu received the news from Master Gong, I went to the county government again, and found another county annals in the hidden compartment. After comparing it, I found that it was different from the existing one. It was published 25 years ago. The Mu family moved to Yuling, but I don't know where it came from. After I secretly investigated, there is no family with the surname Mu on the shrines of the people's homes, not even in the fairy gate."

"I also looked for it on the hillside outside the barrier, and there is no grave for Mu's family." Bai Su said.

"There are not many guests in Yizhuang." Bai Tong said.

After listening, everyone fell into deep thought, only Gan Qingsi rolled his eyes around, he sniffed the smell in the air, "Do you smell the smoke?"

Jiang Yi had a stuffy nose from the cold, and said, "Where is the smell of smoke?"

"Brother, this is clearly the smell of braised pork." Jin Yutang said happily.

"As expected of Xiao Yu'er, I wonder why I'm so familiar with it." Gan Qingsi said with a smile, "Let's go find the meat."

Walking along the scent, I walked around half a circle, and saw a hut standing among the layers of snow, with fences around the door, and a plum poking into the half of the body, with a little white color on the ground.The neat flower beds seem to be planted with snow, standing side by side with uneven heights, which are particularly pleasing to the eye from a distance.One tremblingly walked to the flower stand and scraped the snow on the face into the wine jar with branches. When she turned around, she saw a group of people in the woods. She stared at the opposite side in astonishment, and smashed the jar on the snow in a panic. inside.

The old woman was a little flustered, she struggled to squat down while supporting the flower table, and one person quickly went to her side to pick up the wine jar.

"Old man, I'm sorry to scare you." After Gan Qingsi finished speaking, the old woman shook her head.

"I haven't seen anyone for too many years, I'm scared." The old woman took the wine jar and staggered back to the house. When she turned her head and saw that they were still standing in the snow, she said, "It's cold outside, come in."

"Thank you old man."

The room is not considered open, and even a bit cold and damp. The mud walls are cracked several times, and even the shrine is covered with a thick layer of dust. Only one painting adds some vitality to the house. It is also a snow scene, and there are a pair of eyes. snowman.After placing the wine jar, the old woman sat down on the wooden bed with a basket and began to mend clothes. She looked up at a few people and asked, "What are you doing here in the deep mountains and old forests?"

"I have something to investigate." Gan Qingsi asked, "Have you seen anyone recently?"

A smile appeared on her shriveled lips, and the creases at the corners of her eyes deepened. She said in an old voice, "No one would come to this ghost place. It's going to be dark today, so go back where you came from."

Upon hearing this, Gan Qingsi hurriedly said, "Old man, it's almost dark. If we leave at this time, we will fall half to death in this old forest and be eaten by walking corpses. Why don't you take us in? "

Seeing his obedient appearance, Jiang Yi wanted to kick him twice, but due to the current situation, he could only keep laughing.

The old woman's eyes were full of reluctance, she coughed, then lowered her head to mend the patched shirt, and sighed, "I can't fit you here."

"Old man, do you think it's okay for us to squat outside? We will never occupy your place." Gan Qingsi greeted him with a smile, which was brilliant, and he didn't listen to people's order to evict guests at all.

As soon as the needle and thread in her hand stopped, she glanced at Bai Su, "Little girl, come cook with me."

Bai Su smiled softly and stepped forward to help the old woman's hand, and the two walked out of the gate.

"Great." Gan Qingsi sat on the bench comfortably, delighted all the time.

Seeing him happy, Jiang Yi asked, "What's the matter?"

"The old man is willing to take us in, is that okay?"

"Can that be called shelter? Didn't you insist on it?"

Gan Qingsi smiled and turned to look at the painting next to the shrine, his eyes fixed on the signature for a long time, and he whispered, "Luo makeup."

Seeing him in a daze, Xi Ruobai asked, "Do you know him?"

He shook his head, "I don't know each other, let's go, Tinghuan, let's go help."

Xi Ruobai nodded in response.

He said that he was helping Gan Qingsi, but he was sneaking around, like a supervisor standing at the door of the kitchen, talking to him from time to time.

"Old man, is it not easy for you to live alone in this winter?"

"Ah."

"Old man, did you plant the plum blossoms outside the door yourself?"

"Ah."

"Old man, that painting in the house is really beautiful, and you signed the name?"

"No."

The old woman was cutting vegetables, Bai Su was holding the spoon, Xi Ruobai was adding firewood, Gan Qingsi asked again, "Old man, is there anything I can help you with?"

The old woman really couldn't stand his words, and said, "Yes."

"What?" After speaking, he rolled up his sleeves and prepared to work.

"Keep quiet." After the old woman finished speaking, she heard two laughs, one from Bai Su and the other from Xi Ruobai.

Gan Qingsi shrank a few steps and squatted next to Xi Ruobai and asked in a low voice, "Ting Huan, am I arguing?"

Xi Ruobai smiled sideways, shook his head and said, "It's very noisy."

He snorted angrily and didn't speak any more. He was so aggrieved that even the old woman shook her head when she saw it.

Xu did not have Gan Qingsi's involvement, and he ate very quietly for dinner. Seeing that everyone was full and full, he immediately cleaned up first, pulled a small bench to wash the dishes in the kitchen, and was not even in the mood to hum a ditty.Xi Ruobai put the bowl and chopsticks into the water, and was about to roll up his sleeves when he interrupted, "No, I'll do the washing."

"Suye, are you still angry?" Xi Ruobai saw that his expressionless expression was really interesting, so he asked again, "Ignore me?"

Gan Qingsi wiped the edge of the bowl and said plaintively, "You think I'm noisy."

"When did I think you were noisy?" Xi Ruobai smiled helplessly.

He curled his lips and said, "Then you say I'm noisy."

"That's the truth."

"Wow, Xi Tinghuan, you sprinkle salt on my wound, you don't love me anymore." Gan Qingsi washed the dishes fiercely as if venting his anger, and the dishwashing water splashed around his eyes when he was about to use it He was stopped by Xi Ruobai when he rubbed his wrist, he went to Gan Qingsi's side to wipe off the water, and took a closer look.

"Did you splash your eyes?"

Gan Qingsi closed his eyes and nodded fiercely, "It hurts."

"I'll get you some water to wash."

"No."

"How can you live well if you don't wash it?"

"Kiss one." Gan Qingsi said with a smile.

Xi Ruobai was stunned, and said, "No."

"why?"

He turned his eyes and stammered, "I just splashed water."

That means you can kiss?

"Another place, here, here." Gan Qingsi pointed his chin up, seeing Xi Ruobai leaned up to brush his lips quickly, then got up and walked away.

"Master Xi! Where are you going?"

"Go back to the house."

"Aren't you comforting me?"

"Why comfort you?"

"Wow, you don't recognize anyone after kissing, Mr. Xi, you are so cruel!"

Xi Ruobai returned to his side with his helplessness, "Is this satisfactory?"

"Not satisfied."

"Then how can you be satisfied?"

"Kiss longer."

"Gan Suye, don't go too far!" Wen Sheng and the two turned their heads and saw Gan Yungui looking at him with disgust.

"Why am I going too far?"

"Don't do your business and think about dirty things all day long!" Gan Yungui accused, striding up to him, "What do you say you don't think about taking advantage of others all day long?"

"will die."

"...,"

"...,"

At night, Bai Su, Bai Tong, Jiang Yi, and Xi Ziqi sleep on the table, while Xi Ruobai, Gan Qingsi, Gan Yungui, and Jin Yutang sit on the bench against the wall and close their eyes.The oil lamp has long been extinguished, but the stove in the house is still ringing, accompanied by the sound of breathing in deep sleep, the night is a little bit quieter.The person lying on the bed lifted the quilt and put on her shoes in the dark for a long time. She staggered a few steps to the wooden box and rummaged for a long time, and finally took out some long blankets.Taking advantage of the moonlight by the window, she went to the table to cover the people, and then came to Gan Qingsi, watching the sleeping faces of the people, she stopped for a long time and sighed inaudibly.

"Senior, aren't you going to tell me?"

One sentence made the old woman's hand pause in the air, she wiped the hot tears from her eyes with trembling hands, perhaps due to some accidents, the tears in the corners of her eyes were not wiped clean, she looked at the clear-eyed person, and said, "Tell you what?" The old man's voice was very vicissitudes, hiding endless helplessness, she persuaded again, "Let's leave early tomorrow."

"Senior, do you know Xiao Yu'er?"

"Who is Xiao Yu'er?"

"Senior knows that he has both spirit and ghost powers, which may be related to Yuling." Looking at her fixedly, Gan Qingsi said, "You should be clear about the purpose of our trip, but if senior doesn't say anything, this matter will be lost." It's just buried deeper."

The old woman hunched back and walked back to the bed. She was thinking about something, and said, "I'm just a lonely old man who has lived in the mountains for many years. How do I know your purpose?"

"There are many ecstasy formations here, and there are many walking corpses. If it is not for the people of the Taoist method, how can they live in this dangerous place? The Huangfa Daoist should be a senior. I see that the senior is very concerned about Xiao Yu'er, but you know him?"

The old woman sighed, "I don't know, and I don't know."

"Then senior, can you answer a question for me?"

"You said."

"Who signed the painting?"

The old woman looked at the old painting with deep eyes, "Why do you ask this? Could it be that you know her?"

Gan Qingsi waved his head and said, "I don't know her, but I have seen the imprint she signed in the cave."

"Cave? Where's the cave?"

"A deserted island in the Weihai Sea."

With tears in her eyes, the old woman clapped her hands on her knees, and sighed, "What a crime."

At this time, most people have woken up, only Jin Yutang is still a little confused, he rubbed his eyes and looked at the scene in front of him, so when he met the old woman with hazy eyes, he saw that her eyes were full of sorrow.

"Son, what's your name?"

"My name is Jin Yutang."

"Where did you grow up?"

"Jinhua."

"Do you have a family?"

"Alone for as long as I can remember."

"Where does your name come from?"

Jin Yutang took out the red rope on his chest, and the front of the amulet was embroidered with gold characters, and the back was Jiuannian Kagura, "Originally, everyone called me Xiaotang. Brother Ying, who knew how to read when I was nine years old, told me about this amulet that I have been wearing since I was a child. There are gold characters on it, and I think it might be my surname, so let him give me a very rich name, and then I will call it Jin Yutang."

The old woman wept unbearably and said, "You were born in Yuling in November of the year of Jiu'an. Your mother's surname was Jin, your father's surname was Zhang, and your original name was Zhang Xiluo."

Jin Yutang laughed a few times and felt a little depressed, he said, "You must have lied to me, old lady, I grew up in Jinhua."

"I was the one who sent you out of Yuling back then."

Tears dripped down inexplicably, Jin Yutang still smiled and said, "So you know me, mother-in-law?"

The old woman nodded, and said with tears in her eyes, "Your father called me mother."

Jin Yutang couldn't help crying anymore.

It turned out that he had a family.
