Demon Book and Strange Essay

Since I came to Hangzhou in the south of the Yangtze River, I haven't visited it well. West Street is the most prosperous street in Hangzhou County, and West Lake is a must-see for literati.Master Shen Li is not a literati, but he can still feel the elegance of the south of the Yangtze River. After a little tour, he went into the teahouse to listen to the storyteller.

What the teahouse storyteller was talking about was neither Yue Fei's loyal service to the country, nor the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, nor Du Shiniang who was sad and bitter.He told stories of ghosts and ghosts in wonderful ghost books and strange stories, all of which were written by the storyteller himself.Regarding the books spoken by the storyteller, some colleagues look down on them, and those literati who are elegant will not step here. They think that this kind of place and the storyteller are not in the elegant hall, but what those low-level guests eat is This set, and the tea is not expensive.

So this teahouse is full of seats every day.

Master Shen Li came by coincidence, the storyteller had just finished telling the last ghost story, and then started to tell the next story.

The waiter at the teahouse served Master Shen Li a pot of spring tea and two dishes of snacks, and returned after Master Shen Li gave the money.

On the stage is a storyteller in his 60s.The storyteller's surname is Jiang. He has braids and a long gray robe. With a fan in his hand, he begins to tell stories about ghosts and ghosts in this demon book.

It was also the first time for Master Shen Li to hear such a storytelling, and he couldn't help being fascinated after listening to it.

This storyteller is really different from those stories about heroic love!

This story is about a poor couple of the Ye family. The father-in-law of the family ran around in order to maintain the family's work, and finally fell into the water and died.Lady Ye missed her dead husband, so she spent money to buy an evil object with the sorceress, and the sorceress told her that as long as this thing was enshrined for seven to 49 days, her husband would return.

Miss Ye, who was thinking of the king and became a demon, enshrined this evil thing according to the sorceress.

After waiting for 49 days, this Mr. Ye really crawled out of the river that fell into the water.On the street, Ye Niangzi and Ye Xianggong met as expected.

But, how can this person be resurrected?

Everyone in the teahouse was fascinated by this, even Master Shen Li.Everyone is waiting for the storyteller to tell what will happen next.

Did Lady Ye spend her whole life with this dead husband?Or will he be killed?

"That night, Mrs. Ye met Mr. Ye. But how can a dead person come back to life? While Mrs. Ye was happy, I saw Mr. Ye opened his mouth and opened his mouth wide."

"This Mr. Ye's mouth is getting bigger and bigger, and it's getting bigger and bigger——"

"In the end, Mr. Ye swallowed Lady Ye into his stomach."

The audience in this teahouse grew their mouths.

This year, Qiuniang and her children have had a harder time than last year.The old house in Baijingfang has become more and more dilapidated over the past few decades, and it still leaks when it rains.But for the sake of the children, no matter how hard and tired they are, they have to endure.Who let the father of the child fall into the water and die a few years ago for his livelihood.If it wasn't for the child, she would have gone with the child's father long ago.

In the morning, after putting the child down, Qiuniang, with her thin body and patched cloth clothes, sent her to the restaurant with a basket of fresh vegetables grown by herself.

Inside the house, the child shrank when he watched his mother go out.

He didn't want to stay at home. Strange things would appear in this house at night, which frightened him.

Take the vegetable basket out of Baijingfang and go to the street.

When the weather is cold, fresh vegetables sell well. As long as these vegetables can be sold, she and her children can still have a bite to eat, and they will not starve to death.

Years later, the streets and alleys in the south of the Yangtze River became lively.

So what if the country changes hands, so what if there is no emperor to rule the world.Whether there is or not, the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China are the same for ordinary people at the bottom.

People like them can only grit their teeth and live.

When Qiu Niang took the fresh vegetables in the basket to Wanyuan Restaurant to deliver them.Among the crowd, the vegetable basket in her hand suddenly fell from her hand, and her face was full of shock and disbelief. Facing the person in front of her, she couldn't help screaming loudly: "My child's father! You, you are back!"

Her words became a little weird and distorted because of the person in front of her. Hearing such a voice, Shang Yin stopped and turned his head to look.And other people on the street followed the voice and looked towards the owner in the direction of the voice.

"What's the matter with this man! He's all wet."

"This, isn't this Qiuniang's husband!"

"Ghost! Ghost!" Someone recognized this person as Qiuniang's husband who had been dead for several years and couldn't help screaming.

In spring, when the sun was shining and the sun was shining, this bustling street was inexplicably tinged with terror.Qiu Niang tremblingly walked up to her husband who had been dead for many years.

Everyone only saw Qiuniang's husband grinning, and his mouth got bigger and bigger until he opened the huge mouth and wanted to swallow Qiuniang who was already stunned in front of him. When I was inside, a cigarette rod pierced through the air and pierced Qiuniang's husband and nailed it into the wall. The cigarette rod missed a few points in the wall.Qiu Niang's husband who was pierced instantly dispersed into a cloud of black mist. Shang Yin stepped forward to put his hand into the black mist, but he couldn't touch anything.But when the fat chicken that rushed over wanted to eat this strange thing, it didn't eat anything.The black mist disappeared quickly.

After the black mist disappeared, Qiuniang collapsed to the ground.

Shang Yin, who couldn't feel anything, went to the wall and took back his cigarette stick.

Yanshi Zhenwo, who came down after hearing the noise in the restaurant, helped Qiuniang who was frightened.The faces of the people around were all pale, and they haven't recovered yet.

They, they are in broad daylight!

If it wasn't for Shang Yin, Qiu Niang would have been swallowed by his ghost husband!

Sun Su'er, who followed Shang Yin, was so frightened that his legs went weak.

This, where did the ghost come from in broad daylight!You must tell the young master about this!

After a long time, everyone dispersed with uneasy hearts.At this moment, this Jiangnan is obviously the most beautiful Jiangnan, but it is a bit weird.

Helping Qiuniang to sit on one side, Yanshi Zhenwo walked up to Shang Yin and asked, "What is it?"

From the words of others, he could judge that the thing was not a monster.But if it was a ghost, how could this thing appear on the street full of yang.Moreover, today is a warm spring day.How did this ghost appear?

"I don't know." Shang Yin replied.He poked his hand into the black mist just now, he couldn't feel anything, couldn't grasp anything.This thing is not a monster at all.

Even Shang Yin didn't know what it was, Yanshi Zhenwo frowned.

"Let's go." Shang Yin said.Then take the fat chicken home.

Yanshi Zhenwo sent Qiuniang back.

In the teahouse.

After the storyteller finished telling the latest story of the demon book, there was applause in the teahouse.Everyone shouted: "Good! Good!" So Mr. Jiang's grandson walked around the teahouse with a plate and received a lot of rewards.

Master Shen Li listened happily, and gave several copper coins to Mr. Jiang's grandson before leaving back to "Shen's Tailor Shop".

After wandering around for a day, Master Shen Li's mood improved a lot.Thinking about it, I will come back another day to listen to Mr. Jiang's storytelling.

Sun Su'er followed Shang Yin for a day, and when Shang Yin returned home, he didn't go out again, so he turned back.

It was going to get dark, no matter how lively Hang County in the south of the Yangtze River was at night, and no matter how brightly lit the streets were, at this moment he could only feel a chill.

Thinking of what she saw during the day, Sun Su'er felt chills all over her body.

When I returned to Gao's house, the young master was indeed not there.He gave the money to a girl, and asked the girl to give the money to Xu Ying to see a doctor for the child.

I'm afraid I won't be able to tell the young master what happened during the day until tomorrow.

This Hangzhou County is neither big nor small.The story of the ghost during the day still spread.After hearing this rumor, some people scoffed and didn't believe it.Some believe it.Because there are too many people who have seen it, so most of them believe it.

The people who saw it said: If Shang Yin hadn't pierced that ghost husband with his cigarette stick, this Qiuniang would have been swallowed by her husband long ago.Have you ever seen Qiuniang and her man's mouth open so wide?

This incident spread to the ears of those who listened to the book in the teahouse, and there was such a strange feeling in their hearts.

Because, when Qiuniang met her ghost husband during the day, they were listening to Mr. Jiang's story in the teahouse, which happened to be the story of Lady Ye being bewitched by a sorceress to serve an evil thing to resurrect her husband, and in the end she was devoured by her husband and died miserably.

Gao Fei returned home the next day, and when Sun Suer told him what happened yesterday, Gao Fei naturally didn't believe it.He thought that Sun Su'er had misunderstood and deceived him.

Sun Su'er felt bitter. She saw strange things twice, and one of them happened right in front of her eyes.Gao Fei still didn't believe it, alas, unless Gao Fei really met him, he really didn't believe it.

"Master, Young Madam has taken Miss out to see a doctor." Sun Su'er said.The child cried every night and did not know what was wrong with him.

"Understood." Gao Fei said.

Just when Gao Fei took Sun Su'er out, he was stopped by the old lady: "Master, Madam is looking for you."

Gao Fei was a little annoyed, but he had to go.His mother came to him just because she wanted him to take a concubine.

With Gao Fei's permission, Xu Ying took the child to see the doctor early in the morning.After seeing it, the doctor in the medicine hall said that the child was healthy and painless, and finally only prescribed some tranquilizing medicine for the child.

The old doctor shook his head: "There are so many children coming to the doctor recently..."

After taking the medicine, Xu Ying didn't go home right away, she finally came out, she was going to see Shang Yin's half-brother.

Xu Ying's feelings for Shang Yin are complicated.They hadn't been close since childhood, because Shang Yin was Xu's legitimate son, and she was just a concubine. At that time, his daughter pretended to be beautiful and kind-hearted Shang Yin. In front of him, she felt a sense of inferiority.This sense of inferiority accompanied her growing up, and later she married her cousin Gao Fei according to her aunt's wishes.But so what?She likes Gao Fei, but Gao Fei is only her sister, and after a long time, she becomes impatient.

It would have been better if she gave birth to a boy, but a girl, and even my aunt began to dislike him.

Thinking of this, Xu Ying couldn't help feeling sad, she was destined not to live for herself in this life.

Right now, the only person who has a relatively strong blood relationship with him, apart from the child in his arms, is Shang Yin.Except for Bi Shu, whom he grew up with, Shang Yin is indifferent to everyone.The child in his arms is the grace of his salvation, and this kindness must be remembered no matter what.

After buying some things, Xu Ying knocked on the door of Shang Yin's house.

"Knock knock knock!"

"Shang Yin, are you home? I'm Xu Ying." She called.

"What's the matter?" Shang Yin's voice came from inside, as if he didn't intend to open the door.

"I'll come and see you." Xu Ying said.

"I'm fine, you can go back." Shang Yin said.

"Can you open the door first? I brought you some things, and brought little Bao'er to see you." Xu Ying said a little nervously.

In this world, except for the immature child in her arms, subconsciously, she regards Shang Yin as the most trusted person.Xu Ying waited patiently, and after a while, only the sound of flapping wings was heard, and the door opened.

The door was opened by Fei Ji, and Shang Yin was sitting in the front hall.

Xu Ying entered the door and said to Fat Chicken: "Thank you." Thank you for opening the door for yourself, thanking it for saving Xiao Bao'er.

Fat Chicken "cuckoo" twice and then led Xu Ying to the front hall.

In the front hall, Shang Yin put out the cigarette and put the fruit he brought on the table.If facing Shang Yin in the past, she would be envious and inferior, but facing Shang Yin in front of her, she would only be a little afraid and restrained.

"Little Bao'er has been crying every night for the past few days, so I took her out to see the doctor today. I'll stop by to see you." When she heard that Bi Shu died, Shang Yin must be sad.

"What did the doctor say?" Shang Yin asked.

"He said the child is fine, and he prescribed a medicine to soothe the nerves." Thinking that Shang Yin was caring for little Bao'er, Xu Ying showed a slight smile.

In fact, it is not, Shang Yin just remembered what Yanshi Zhenwo said about the child crying at night.

"Let me see." Shang Yin said.

Xu Ying was flattered.She carried the child in front of Shang Yin, the child was awake, she looked at Shang Yin with her black eyes and then smiled at Shang Yin.Shang Yin stretched out his hand to touch the child's forehead, and there was nothing wrong with it.

Xu Ying was a little happy, carried the child back to the seat, and then said something about her recent affairs before leaving with the child in her arms.

After sending Xu Ying out, Fat Chicken flew to the front hall table to pick up apples, really enjoying it.

Shang Yin picked up the cigarette stick and knocked on the table again and again.

He was thinking about what happened yesterday.

"What do you think," he said.

The fat chicken eating the fruit "Googoo" said, "I don't know, I've never seen anything like this before."

There is nothing in the three realms and six realms that it cannot eat, the only difference is whether it likes to eat or not.But the strange thing that appeared under the blue sky and broad daylight yesterday, let alone eat it, you can't even touch it.It is extremely strange.

Even the fat chicken doesn't know what it is.

Shang Yin pondered in his heart.Fat Chicken swallowed a piece of fruit and said, "Shang Yin, don't you think the current Hang County is strange?"

"Where is the strange? Where is the strange?" Shang Yin said.Is it the reason why he stays at home behind closed doors all year round?Even Yanshi Zhenwo and Feiji noticed the strangeness, but he didn't notice the strangeness in Hang County?

"It's not the first time I've encountered this thing." Fat Chicken squatted on the table and said to Shang Yin.

"Oh?"

"One day I went to the West Lake to look for fish to eat. A water ghost crawled out of the West Lake. I wanted to eat him, but he crawled back into the lake by himself. When I pecked him, he disappeared by himself. I obviously didn't Eat him, didn't kill him, he disappeared by himself. And it was also daytime." Fat Chicken said.

After hearing what Fat Chicken said, Shang Yin took a puff of cigarette and let it out.

"Something has come to Hangzhou Mansion." Shang Yin said.

"On the day Bi Shu died, I couldn't find anything. Shang Yin, tell me, do those strange things have anything to do with Bi Shu's death?" Fat Chicken said.

"I don't know." Shang Yin was thinking about whether to investigate this matter. He didn't like to do things that were thankless.

"I miss Bi Shu." Fat Chicken spread its wings and said a little lonely.

There is no clue about Bi Shu's death, and now there is something completely unknown. Is there really no connection between them?

In the Lingyin Temple, Yanshi Zhenwo and the crazy monk are sitting on stools and playing with Buddhist beads.Yanshi Zhenwo accurately caught the Buddhist beads thrown to him by the mad monk, and then accurately threw the Buddhist beads into the crazy monk's hands.

"Master, what exactly are those things you said?"

The crazy monk happily caught Yanshi Zhenwo's Buddhist beads, and he said hahahaha: "I don't know it as a teacher! I don't know it as a teacher!"

No one knows which of the crazy monk's words is true and which is false, but the true self of Yanshi knows it.

"I don't know if Shang Yin will investigate this matter."

Hearing Shang Yin's name, the mad monk trembled, and the Buddhist beads fell to the ground without catching them: "Shang Yin is a monster."

Shang Yin is a monster, ever since Shang Yin was killed by Gao Fei and General Deji, the crazy monk has said that about Shang Yin.Before Shang Yin changed, Shang Yin often played with the crazy monk.Yanshizhen I still remember that at that time, the crazy monk also liked to play with "Little Yin'er" Buddhist beads, but since Shang Yin was murdered, the crazy monk called him a monster.

This really made him feel strange.

No answer can be found here with the crazy monk, he stayed in the temple tonight.

After night fell again, Hang County came alive again in the night.The streets and alleys of Hang County are covered with red lanterns, and the night scene in the south of the Yangtze River comes alive with a touch of strange beauty.In the Japanese Concession of Gongchen Bridge.Li Miaoqing did not wait for Gao Fei to come tonight.

He wanted to know who the "Shang Yin" he was in Gao Fei's eyes, so he went to inquire during the day.I thought I couldn't find out why, but I didn't expect that everyone in Hang County knew about Shang Yin.He even knew about the fact that he went to the Japanese Concession to buy opium every month.

After hearing about Shang Yin, Li Miaoqing thought to himself: Since he harmed Shang Yin back then, why did Gao Fei have such indescribable desire and emotion towards Shang Yin.

Li Miaoqing showed a strange smile, wondering what Shang Yin's expression would be if he knew that his cousin Gao Fei, who had hurt him, had such thoughts for him.

He wanted to meet Shang Yin, and wanted to know what Shang Yin looked like.They all said that he and Shang Yin looked alike, and he wanted to know how much alike they looked.Even though he had never met him before, he became very interested in this person.

"Are you asking about Shang Yin? Hey, you really look like Shang Yin." When inquiring, those people said so.
