Record of Yin and Yang

The last time Fang Beiming saved a group of ghosts, the heavens sent nectar of merit and virtue, and Gu Jiu was drenched in the rain. He feels that nothing has changed. However, the lifespan of those little paper people ordered by Fang Beiming has been reduced to ten days. It was extended for another five days, and when they were not needed to do anything on weekdays, Fang Beiming put them to sleep on a spot on their foreheads, so that they could make the most of their living time.

The ground was still wet, so Gu Jiu and the others rested for two days, and only sprinkled paper figurines out when the road surface was almost dry.

The little paper people went out at night, came back in the morning, and lined up to report the situation to Fang Beiming. On the first night of the search, several little paper people brought back news that they had found the big weeping willow.

Gu Jiu and the others searched for the location provided by the little paper people.

The life span of willow is generally between 30 and 20 years, and a few can reach more than [-] years.When Lan Yue died, the weeping willow was quite big in her eyes. After [-] years of growth, if there is no accident, it will be even bigger.The little paper people are only the size of a palm, and everything they see is extremely huge. Small trees with thick arms are also big weeping willows in their eyes, so after visiting several areas one by one, Gu Jiu and the others only confirmed three that can be called big weeping willows.

Gu Jiu and the others had no choice but to come out at night again, summon the nearby wild ghosts, and let them look for them.If there is an old ghost, ask him about Lan Yue and San Lang.

Helplessly, many wild ghosts have forgotten the past in a daze, and they are not local, so they have no impression of Lanyue.

The wild ghosts couldn't show up during the day, so Gu Jiu and the others drove a donkey cart to the nearby villages with several big weeping willows to inquire about Lan Yue's news. It has been a long time for 20 years. When they inquired, they always asked older people to inquire, but they still found nothing.

Gu Jiu beat his sore legs after walking for a day, looked at the river beside the road, "Master, how long is this river..."

Fang Beiming said: "The river flows into the river and sea, how long can you say it is?"

Gu Jiu: "Then maybe Lanyue's bones floated in from far, far away." That's what happened to the water ghosts they recruited from the bones that night.

Then how to find it, Wang Xiaodie's wedding is coming tomorrow, if Wang Xiaodie's wish is as simple as marrying her lover, then her wish will be fulfilled tomorrow.But Lanyue's wish has not yet come, and the effect of the ghost contract is still there. Lanyue will definitely stay until her own wish is fulfilled. With Wang Xiaodie's premature death, can she survive until the day when Lanyue's wish is fulfilled?

Dragging a whole body exhausted, it was dark when the three of them returned to Wang's house.From a distance, the three of them saw Lan Yue dancing in the courtyard of Wang's family, wearing a water-red wedding dress.

Without drums to accompany her, Lan Yue danced very quietly with a smile on her face.She has a slender figure, her steps are light, her sleeves and legs are lifted smoothly and naturally, it can be seen that she was good at dancing when she was alive.

Lan Yue was spinning on the spot, Gu Jiu looked at the spinning figure of the other party, and her mind became dizzy again.

Shao Yi's sword hilt hit Gu Jiu's head, and Gu Jiu regained consciousness immediately.

Lan Yue chuckled twice, half-covering her face with her sleeves, revealing a charming and enchanting face, she tapped her toes, walked towards them with dancing steps, and said slowly, "Daoist, have you found Sanlang?"

Fang Beiming was not bewitched, and said in a bad mood: "It's just a name, how can I find it so fast. Don't try us again, if I didn't worry about Wang Xiaodie, I would have slapped you out."

Although Lan Yue is limited by Wang Xiaodie's physical body, her ability as a ghost is not completely suppressed.

Lanyue was not afraid at all, she flicked her sleeves, and only lamented quietly: "The sycamore tree, the rain in the third watch, does not mean that love is suffering. One leaf, one sound, the empty steps drip to the light... Finding a good dream, a dream is difficult." Cheng. Besides, who knows that I am in love at this time..."

After reading the poem, Lan Yue turned and entered the house.

Lan Yue would not recite these verses for no reason, it must be from her memory.Gu Jiu got three messages from Lan Yue's words and deeds tonight: she can dance, read and read poems, but the poems are desolate and sentimental. If it reflects on her and Saburo, it may be because she has been waiting for Saburo not to return home for a long time, or she may It was Saburo's feelings for her that changed.

Gu Jiu and the others also entered the room. Gu Jiu soaked his feet in hot water, and Fang Beiming continued to carve the unfinished mahogany plaque. When Gu Jiu was lying on the bed and was about to fall asleep, he It felt like Fang Beiming walked up to him and put something around his neck.

Gu Jiu subconsciously stretched out his hand to touch it, and found a hard wooden sign. He opened his eyes and asked in a daze, "Master?"

Fang Beiming patted Gu Jiu's head, and warned, "Na Lanyue is not a good stubble. If you wear this wooden plaque, you won't be afraid that she will influence you again."

Gu Jiu nodded, and fell asleep as soon as Fang Beiming left.When he woke up the next day and saw the wooden plaque on his neck, Gu Jiu remembered what happened last night.

Today Wang Xiaodie got married, and because she came to be a concubine, she was not allowed to wear a red wedding gown. Although Wang Dacai agreed to her daughter's request, she still felt ashamed, and the family just set up a table for a few relatives who could not refuse.

Gu Jiusan will go to Hao's house as a sender.Before going out, Fang Beiming made a fortune for Wang Xiaodie, and the hexagram showed great danger.

After going out, the three followed the sedan chair for more than two hours before arriving at Hao's house.The ancients basically lived by the water. When Gu Jiu and the others entered the village, they also passed by the river. It was the same river as the one outside Wangjia Village. They also passed by here when they were looking for the big weeping willow.

As the landlords of the Hao family, the courtyard is naturally much better than a medium-sized tile-drilled house.Carrying Lanyue's small sedan chair through the corner gate, one cannot worship Heaven and Earth's parents, so the ceremony is extremely simple.Gu Jiu and the others saw the groom officer, Hao Yuanzhou, who was good-looking, and looked at Lan Yue with extremely gentle eyes, and the jealous eyes of the main room who was waiting to drink toast tea almost poked two holes in Lan Yue's back.

Gu Jiu saw that Hao Yuanzhou had a gentle smile on his face, but if you looked closely, you would find that his eyes were dull, like a manipulated doll.Gu Jiu moved closer to Shao Yi, "Brother, has the groom been bewitched by Lan Yue?"

Shao Yi nodded: "Ghost charm technique is a method used by ghosts to confuse people's hearts."

Gu Jiu didn't see Hao Yuanzhou's parents, and the three of them were invited to have tea.

It was almost dusk when the couple's worship ceremony started, and after dinner, it was already dark when Gu Jiu and the others came out of Hao's house.They can't stay overnight tonight, but they have to keep an eye on Lan Yue, so they don't plan to go back. Fang Beiming let the little paper man out to pay attention to the situation in Hao's house.

They came to the river and walked along the river bank for a while. Fang Beiming was about to see if there were any water ghosts here, and when he was about to ask him to ask, Gu Jiu suddenly tugged at his sleeve.

"Master, there are people there." Gu Jiu pointed to the front, where there was a faint glow of fire, and two vague figures faced the river bank, squatting and standing.

Someone burned paper there.

Fang Beiming stopped and took his two apprentices over.

The two people, an old man and a middle-aged man, saw them passing by and wanted to run away in panic, but the old man tripped and tripped on the ground because his legs were weak.

"Father!" The middle-aged man quickly squatted down.

Fang Beiming also squatted down to check the leg held by the old man. He squeezed it casually to comfort the two of them: "Twisted it, it's nothing serious, just take a good rest in the next few days."

The old man and his son calmed down when they saw that Gu Jiu and the others were familiar faces without any malice. The old man said, "How many of you passed by here at night?"

Fang Beiming and the others didn't wear Taoist uniforms today because they were going to send a wedding, Fang Beiming said: "We are here to send a wedding to Hao's family."

Hearing this, the old man frowned in disgust.

The middle-aged man snorted even more, but he didn't say anything. He helped his father up and was about to leave.

Gu Jiu and the others still wanted to know more about the Hao family. After all, it was the place where Wang Xiaodie made her wish. Gu Jiu looked at the fire that was still burning next to it.

Gu Jiu stopped the two of them, "Uncle, Grandpa, why are you burning paper in front of the river?"

Gu Jiucai came up to the person's waist, raised his head and spoke in a dazed manner, childish language can easily lower people's vigilance.The middle-aged man's expression softened, and he said, "It's just because the dead are buried in the river."

"Then why do you worship in secret?" Shao Yi said suddenly, seeing the change of expression of the two, thinking of their disgusted cold snort when they heard the Hao family, he guessed: "It has something to do with the Hao family?"

The middle-aged man became defensive again, "Don't make wild guesses!"

Fang Beiming cupped his hands pleadingly: "The two of you must also know about the Hao family's marriage today. To be honest, the girl in the family insisted on marrying into the Hao family. I tried to stop her, and I don't know much about the Hao family. If you can, I hope you two will kindly remind me."

Fang Beiming acted like a set, the middle-aged man was dubious: "Really?"

Gu Jiu also begged with a pitiful face.

The middle-aged man turned his head and looked at his father. Seeing his father nodding, he looked around and asked the three of them to walk a few steps to a more secluded place before saying, "In my opinion, the Hao family is a cannibal Where the bones are."

Fang Beiming asked strangely, "How do you say that?"

The middle-aged man gave Fang Beiming a sympathetic look: "Today is your sister's big day, I shouldn't have said this to spoil your interest, but the Hao family has gone too far, so I told you. The day your sister married into the Hao family is the anniversary of the death of the wife in front of the Hao family."

Could it be that the Hao family is sick, why did they choose this day to welcome the newcomers in?Gu Jiu felt strange in his heart, but Fang Beiming asked directly.

The middle-aged man sighed and said, "Hao Zhenwen is obsessed with his original partner, which angered his current wife, Hao Qiushi. In recent years, whenever the Hao family has any happy event during this season, it will be postponed to this day."

But the old man suddenly cursed in a low voice: "Hao Zhenwen, the wolf-hearted Hao Zhenwen, he killed people, but he was hypocritical, making Xiuniang feel uneasy after death!"
