A Chinese Ghost Story

In the capital city, Master Hua broke into the Breeze Hall with a cold face. The young men in the hall were eating melon seeds around him. Seeing him coming in, they shivered one by one, quickly got up with their legs together, and stood in front of him in a row, holding hands. , "Huh? You can't go in, the landlord, Madam ordered you not to step in here..."

The landlord Hua gave him a cold look: "Go away."

The boys shook their heads like waves, "No, no, madam will kill me..." Before the word "men" was uttered, a cool wind blew in front of them, and they all flew up. After that, rustled He landed, covered his face and his head and other injured parts were superimposed on the bottom of the stairs, looking very miserable...

Master Hua strode past, entered the inner garden with no expression on his face, kicked open the door, Su Qingchen was sitting beside the couch, counting the money in a desperate way, when he looked up, he saw his peerless face indifferently, a little He said displeasedly: "Go to the wrong door, what are you doing here when you are full, I don't know if you are welcome or not!"

The landlord Hua slapped the table in front of him, grabbed the silver in her arms, and threw it all over the floor: "I saw Jin Guang, and he said that Mei Niang is in the magic palace at the moment, and the Yinyue Dynasty has disappeared for 18 years. Why? It happened to appear just in time when Meiniang was looking for her husband's house!"

Su Qingchen squatted on the ground angrily, picked up the silver one by one, and glanced at him: "Have you seen the golden light?"

What kind of expression was that, Hua Zhuzhu's face turned dark, "put away your bastard thoughts!"

Su Qingchen stared at him resentfully, then turned around and continued to pick up money, "Oh, you also know that our daughter is not very human, she married a mortal, and she can only be a widow in the future, so naturally she wants to find a husband with a longer life .”

Louzhu Hua squatted down, looked down at her picking up the silver, "Zhuge Liuyun is pretty good, why would you want to provoke the most vicious demons in the Demon Palace?"

"I'm a demon. A demon must find a demon's son-in-law to be his backer. You have Xuanxin's authentic guardian, and I have the backing of the demon palace. It's great. It's equal to each other." Su Qingchen smiled, and his tone was sarcasm: "You Forget about the past, when you caught me, we played hide-and-seek all over the hillside, fighting to the death, and in the end, both of you almost died together. At that time, you held a heart of exorcising demons and defending the way, and you didn't kill any monsters. Absolutely, there is no guarantee that one day your head will turn around and you will not have murderous thoughts again."

"On the wedding night, I drank your Hua Gong Powder, so how can I be your opponent?"

"Don't you still have that friend Jin Guang? I always feel very unsafe living under the eyes of Xuan Xin Zhengzong."

Hua Lou said: "For so many years, I have never known you think so. It turns out that you have hidden everything in your heart. Even if you have Mei Niang, you have never been able to let it go."

Su Qingchen glanced at him, "It's not because we love each other that we got married. If you hadn't missed the crimson poison passed down from generation to generation by our fox family that night, I would have been so drunk on a whim again, I was confused I dragged you to stay overnight, and sadly found out that I was pregnant two months later. If I was not afraid that my daughter would be very pitiful without a father, I would go back to find you? I am so kind."

Huazhu's long-term paralyzed face finally showed a trace of ugliness, and Su Qingchen said more and more happily, "Oh, yes, at that time you thought I had insulted you, and you didn't know that I was pregnant with Mei Niang, so you got angry I almost sent our mother and daughter to the West, if I hadn't shouted that I was pregnant with your child, Meiniang would not have grown so big, but I really can't figure out why you would accept a goblin to give birth to you."

Su Qingchen poked his face viciously with his index finger, "Why don't you speak?"

Louzhu Hua waved her hand away, "It's right for us to separate. I shouldn't have come to look for you. I don't have many days left. I just want to see my daughter get married before I die. I will go to the Demon Palace to find her, no I will trouble you again." Turning around, he strode towards the door.

"Stop!" Su Qingchen wrapped the money in red cloth, and then glanced at the disintegrated table indifferently, "This table is carved from golden nanmu, and the market price is 3000 taels. Please trouble the host to go back. The girl sent here."

Hua Louzhu turned her back to her and said calmly: "Don't worry, I will pay you in the afternoon."

After he left, Su Qingchen slammed the door, sat on the edge of the bed and began to cry, "You idiot, I'm here to work hard to develop the antidote for you, you go to the magic palace for me Sending you to death, go, go! The monster ate you, and I will marry you to a fair-faced girl... If I had known, I should have tied you to the bed and enjoyed it for a few more years, even if you can’t bear the demonic aura on my old lady, Dead flower buds, stinky flower buds!"

Su Qingchen wiped away tears, Auntie, the niece in the mud pit is so miserable, why don't you get rid of the strong evil spirit in her body, harming others and yourself...

Someone knocked on the door panel, "Shop... shopkeeper, can you clean up the table scum, scum?" After breaking the door, a trembling old face appeared.

Su Qingchen stared at it with red eyes, and said angrily: "When did we have such a dying old chrysanthemum like you in our restaurant?"

The man shivered for a moment, showing his broken teeth: "I...I'm not,...I'm Er Gouzi's father who works as a handyman. Er Gouzi is sick..."

Su Qingchen: "..."

The stone forest of the magic palace gradually cast a glare of light, the sun was hanging in the atrium, Hua Mei Niang squinted her eyes and looked at Qiye for a while, but there was still no sign of loosening in the tightened look, she felt quite bored, so she glanced over : "Okay, then you just wait."

Seeing her sudden change of calm attitude, Qiye frowned slightly, and wanted to say something, but was interrupted by the little maid who suddenly ran out. She was a maid who had been serving the Queen Mother for many years. Qiye turned around and asked her: "What is it?"

The maidservant bowed her head respectfully, conveying the will of the Queen Mother Yinyue, "To the Holy King, the Queen Mother has a request."

Queen Mother Yinyue?A gleam flashed in Hua Mei Niang's eyes, and then she turned her head to look at the maidservant. The Queen Mother she was talking about was the one who had been in love with the majestic and majestic Sage King of the Six Paths who was said to have been by his side for hundreds of years. The Yinyue, who has been inseparable for many years, I don’t know what happened to it. If the former cold-blooded demon monarch of the Yinyue Dynasty loves him so much, will the Empress Dowager Yinyue’s palace live in a group of concubines with heavy make-up, and even, At the entrance of the Demon Palace and in Honghe Village 20 years ago, Yinyue was the main person who snatched the seventh generation's resentful couple. Her eyes narrowed slightly... Thinking about it this way, it seems that there is still a sneak attack by the river in the morning. But it has nothing to do with the queen mother who has never met.

Hua Mei Niang rubbed her nose and fell into deep thought. The maid took advantage of her inattention and secretly glanced at her from top to bottom.

The maidservant brought the queen mother's will, and Qiye put aside the question of Hua Mei Niang and the antidote for the time being, with a smile on her face, thinking that it seemed that she hadn't visited the queen mother's bedroom for a long time, and a little thought came to her heart Feeling guilty, he turned his head to look at Xiaoxue who had been left aside for a long time, and the corner of his mouth slightly curved into a gentle arc: "Xiaoxue, come with me, if you miss the warmth of the world, there must be a place that suits you very well."

Xiaoxue lowered her head slightly, with a smile in her eyes: "Yes, Shengjun."

Qiye put his hands behind his back, lifted his legs and walked away, while telling the servant girl: "Xiang'er, you don't have to follow me back to the Queen Mother's bedroom, now take Hua girl to have lunch, remember, seeing Hua girl is not a big deal. It must be brought up by the Queen Mother!"

When Hua Mei Niang heard this, she came back to her senses and interrupted: "I'm not hungry, I..."

"Sheng Jun, the Empress Dowager ordered this flower girl to go with her." She had just started when the maid named Xiang'er panicked and interrupted hastily.

"Oh?" Qiye felt a little surprised, stopped in her tracks, and frowned at her: "Is that what the mother said?"

"Yes, Holy Monarch."

Qiye raised his eyebrows, with a sense of coldness, he had ordered the four sages of the Demon Palace not to disclose this matter, but the story of Hua Mei Niang still reached the Queen Mother's ears, he wanted to send her out of the Demon Palace calmly, Now it seemed that it might not be so easy, he walked up to Hua Mei Niang, leaned over to look at her and reminded: "My queen mother doesn't like people who are mysterious and upright, it's better for Hua girl to be careful when speaking in front of her. "

Hua Mei Niang understood what he meant, and nodded without arguing. It is true that she is not looking for Boren at this moment, and Boren is going to look for her first...

In Wangqing Forest, in the dense forest, there was a sound, Zhuge Liuyun alertly made a stop gesture, Nie Xiaoqian held Ning Caichen tightly, and looked forward.

The man's eyes widened in horror, he walked over in a daze, and kept saying, "Go, go! If you don't want to die, don't come here."

"An authentic person from Xuanxin?" Zhuge Liuyun took a few steps forward, followed by two disciples of Xuanxin who were as dazed as he had been possessed by a demon.

"No, no, no! It's either a demon or a human, no, it's either a human or a demon..." He opened his mouth and spoke in a daze, then suddenly shook his hands desperately as if startled, and shouted in fear: "I don't know What is it! I don't know!"

Seeing their incoherent speech, Zhuge Liuyun quickly ran over to ask for clarification. Seeing that he was approaching him, those few people hurriedly looked around, covering their heads in fear, and fled like madmen.

"Impossible." Zhuge Liuyun scratched the back of his head, unable to figure it out no matter how much he thought, "With master and wife sitting in Wangqing Forest, how could there be monsters?"

Ning Caichen and Nie Xiaoqian shook their heads at him, what sound?They turned their heads and looked warily at the bushes behind them.

In the bushes, there was a surge, and suddenly a monster with disheveled hair jumped out. With a movement of his hand, a cloud of dark devilish energy flew out of his palm, and hit Ning Caichen who was closest to him.

"Caichen!" Nie Xiaoqian exclaimed, grabbed Ning Caichen and quickly dodged aside. She didn't even see the monster's face clearly. Just as she stood still, another cloud of black air flew out of the grass, hitting Ning Caichen in the middle. On Caichen's face, he was already exhausted from the poison of Heishan, his head shook suddenly, spit out a mouthful of blood, and flung it far away in a daze.

Behind the grass, gray hair flashed across the head, and it flew up in the wind in a mess, only revealing a pair of cloudy eyes that were almost crazy...

The author has something to say: Meiniang’s first arrival in Nanguo Town:

In Nanguo Town, there are people coming and going on the street, small stalls and hawkers are enthusiastically hawking, mysterious and authentic yellow charms are pasted all over the street, and there is a shop selling paintings on the corner of the street, at least twenty or so yellow rotten paintings are pasted on the easel Talisman paper.

"Hey, sell paintings! Mr. Nalan's beauty is out of the bath with her face covered, twelve pieces!"

It's very delicate, Hua Mei Niang looked at it from a distance, got off the horse and walked to the painting booth, and scanned it carefully in front of the easel.

The painting seller is a handsome young man who is stroking his short beard and looking at her with a smile on his face, "Miss, do you want to buy a painting? I have all kinds of paintings here! How about this one, Chunshan Xiniao The picture is unique and interesting, many women like it recently, and it sells very well.”

Hua Mei Niang smiled gently, and lowered her head to take out the silver: "I want the picture of the ten taels of silver that you just said about a beauty coming out of the bath with her face covered!"

"Huh?..." The hand touching his beard trembled, and he reacted quickly. He quickly took the money, wrapped up the scroll and handed it over, and said with a smile, "Girl, I still have your painting here." Do you want to take a look at many pictures of beauties with such graceful and graceful styles?"

Hua Mei Niang asked: "Are there any pictures of beautiful men hiding their faces in the bath?"

The painting seller was stunned.

Seeing him in a daze, Hua Mei Niang lightly shook her head and said silently, "Forget it."
