Hundred Ghosts

The moon is sparse, so it is not a good time to kill people.

Lin Zi thought it was good, he didn't need to sleep in a broken temple tonight.

In the middle of the night, the moon was hidden in the clouds and mist, and rustling sounds really came from the backyard.

"Let's go out and have a look?" Lin Zi asked tentatively.

"Go and see." The middle-aged man shrank his short and thick head.

"No, let's go together if we want to go." He Huai decisively dragged him over.

In the yard there is an unknown, black shadow that looks a bit like a cow, and it looks strange.

"Bastard..." A hoarse middle-aged voice came from the shadows.

Ok?

Lin Zi scratched his head, why are ghosts still swearing at people these days?

"That...my surname is Wang, and I live in the eighth place..." The middle-aged man raised his hand embarrassingly.

"..."

"Baby, I'm sorry for you..."

The middle-aged man's face turned serious, "This voice... Are you Zhongshu?"

"what happened?"

"Zhong Shu is my friend!"

Lin Zi spread his hands, "That's right, it really is a debtor."

He rushed over excitedly, "Zhongshu! Why did you leave so early? I miss you so much!"

"Brother Wang, I'm sorry! I haven't paid off your debt yet!"

"Brother is fine, is 50 taels worth our affection?"

Lin Zi thought to himself, that's not what you said yesterday.

"Hey, be careful, don't spit..."

Before he finished speaking, Wang Ba had already sprayed his saliva on Hei Ying because he was too excited.

The black shadow struggled in pain, and then turned into an old scalper and fell on the ground.

He ran over helplessly, "Dao... Daoist, what should we do?"

"Just sell him. Remember to sell enough for 50 taels. He only appeared to pay off your debt. After paying off the debt, he will return to his original state."

"He's my friend, how can I sell him for money?"

"It's really not kind, but if you don't sell him for money, he will never be reincarnated."

He Huai said, "Actually, I have a good idea. You give us 50 taels, and then you give me the cow and I will give you the money."

"Is it because I lent you money and then sold you the cow in exchange for my money?"

"Yes."

"Then... am I at a loss?"

He Huai immediately pulled Lin Zi in front of him and said, "It costs 50 taels to invite Daoist Lin to play."

"So expensive? Didn't you say it's free?"

"I'm just kidding."

"..."

Just think that I owe him 50 taels, and give them the cow directly.

"Then what's next?"

"Sleep in your room first, and sell the cow tomorrow."

"No... Who did you sell it to?"

"Butcher."

His eyes were darkened.

"If that's the case, I'll just lead the cow and sell it myself, and I was fooled by you for nothing... No, he is my friend. I gave it to you because I trust you. How can you do this?"

"Otherwise? Thirty bales of grass for offering every day?"

"I……"

"He has the consciousness of being a human being. No matter how you say it, animals are inferior to humans. If you raise him for one more day, he will have to experience the shame and pain of being a beast for one more day. It's better to wipe his neck... By the way, if you can't bear it, You can do it yourself."

"impossible!"

"So, you have to ask the butcher for help. Of course, you can go there and pull the body back to bury it. It doesn't matter if you don't bury it. It's just the difference between letting the body rot and entering the mouth. It's better to enter the mouth, at least it can be buried." In exchange for a lot of money." He Huai suggested.

The scalper nodded tearfully.

He had to compromise.

On the second day, after slaughtering the scalper, he asked someone to take the corpse of the scalper back. To be honest, he was quite unlucky. It cost him another two taels of silver to send the scalper and bring the corpse back.

The only advantage is that his house doesn't have to be sold.

After Lin Zi left, he suddenly felt something was wrong on the way, "It's over, the cow was taken away by him, we got nothing."

He Huai suppressed a smile, "I just heard from the person in the teahouse that there was a house nearby, and it was quite empty. We can go and stay for one night."

"Well, it's better than sleeping in a broken temple."

"Of course, the owner of that house just moved out there a month ago, and the things inside shouldn't be too old. I heard that there are black-haired beauties in that house."

"Oh?"

"But I won't let you have an affair!"

"..."

Before dark, the two of them hadn't seen the house, but they were stopped by a scholar.

He carried the bookcase on his back, and looked very hurried, "Wait, you two, don't go any further!"

"what happened?"

"There are... there are monsters!"

"what?"

"It's the house that turns east ahead! There are monsters inside!" He panted.

Lin Zi stepped forward and patted him on the back, "Don't worry, take a breath first... tell me later, what's inside?"

"There are monsters inside!"

"impossible……"

The scholar took out his purse, "Please, both of you, take me out of here quickly, let's talk about it later, I... my legs are a little weak..."

The scholar is quite rich, Lin Zi and He Huai carried him to the inn, he booked three upper-class rooms, Lin Zi liked this kind of ending, anyway, where to sleep is not sleeping, there is a clean and tidy place Wouldn't it be better...

However, he was very interested in the monster that the scholar said, and after washing up and eating supper, he planned to ask about it in his room.

The scholar saluted first, "Thank you both."

"Thank you for your kindness, but can I ask you? What is the monster you are talking about?"

His home is in the center of the county seat, surrounded by noisy surroundings, which is simply torture for a scholar, so he chose a deserted house outside the city to rest for a while. There are many houses and a pond in it. East and west school for further study.

It was fine at first, until the evening half a month ago, he saw a black-haired beauty standing by the window of the opposite house, that beauty was really beautiful, with long fluttering hair, delicate face, fairer skin than snow , Glancing at her, his mind was on her, and he couldn't remember anything in the book.

This afternoon, he finally couldn't bear to go to that place to find a beautiful woman, but the inside was empty, because there was no repair there, and there was a thick layer of cobwebs in the corner.

He decided to wait for the beauty to appear.

He went back to his room first, and when the woman was standing in front of the window again, he exchanged glances with her and quickly ran to the house.Unexpectedly, standing there was a monster with a beautiful woman on the upper body and a turtle on the lower body!

Lin Zi said, "I think you must have encountered a turtle ghost." Lin Zi said, "Many people like you have encountered it before. It usually appears in deserted ponds. The upper body is human, but the lower body is It's a turtle."

"That's right! That's what it looks like!"

"Don't be afraid, you'll be fine if you run away, it won't come after you."

"What if?"

"No way." Lin Zi found a way to cheat money, "Why don't you take me to that place, and I'll help you get rid of her?"

"Really?"

Lin Zi pretended to say, "Really, but we haven't had a good time recently..."

"Master Dao, I know what you mean."

He took out a bag of broken silver from the bookcase.

What a fine young man!Lin Zi wanted to praise him.

It's too late tonight, and it's too late to go. After a day's rest, the scholar will lead him there.

The house is quite big, even bigger than He Huai's General's Mansion, and there is a pond in the middle, which looks a little muddy because of the desertedness.

"This is where you saw the turtle ghost last night?"

"Actually, it was in that hut. I saw her leaning against the window."

"The beauty is doing her make-up, you have a lot of good fortune." He Huai teased him.

"Nie Yuan! If it is an ordinary woman, I will marry her no matter what, but it is such a monster...I..."

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, we'll help drive her away."

The sky was gloomy, and the three of them stayed in the scholar's original room. The scholar said, "I usually meet her at this time."

"You light the lamp."

His shadow was reflected by the dim light, and suddenly a woman's soft call came from the opposite side, "Liu Lang, have you still come to see me?"

Lin Zi pushed him, "Say it."

"Ah... yes, it's me." He bit the bullet and answered.

The turtle ghost on the opposite side cried pear blossoms with rain, "I'm sorry, Liu Lang, I didn't mean to lie to you."

"No... it's alright."

He said bravely.

"Then can Liu Lang see me again?"

The two of them pushed him again, and he hurriedly replied, "Okay...Of course!"

"Actually, my family was also a human being. My family was ransacked by robbers, and no one in my family was spared except my family." Her voice floated faintly again, "My family chose to dive into the water to avoid being abused. I didn't expect my body to be eaten into this picture. appearance……"

"Actually, they are quite pitiful."

He Huai encouraged him, "Why don't you marry someone?"

"This...but! She is a monster!" the scholar said anxiously in a calm voice.

"What's the matter with the demon, didn't you still fall in love with her at first?"

"That... that is..." He stammered and blushed.

"Liu Lang, my slave is waiting for you behind the hut in front of the pond."

"Let's go, hey, the girl is kind, right?"

He walked over bravely, and He Huai hugged Lin Zi from behind and sat in a blind corner in front of the house. With him as a cover, the turtle ghost did not find them.

Turtle ghost is really beautiful, she looks charming and charming, she looks like a girl from a rich family, but she is wearing clothes common to previous generations, she looked at the scholar with affection, "Liu Lang, this is the first See you once!"

"Ha... yes."

"I know that Liu Lang is uncomfortable. Seeing me like this, Liu Lang must be very scared, right?"

"It's not..." At least not from the upper body.
