Kunshan is not far from Gusu, and a four-day journey will take you down the river on a black-covered boat.It’s a good time for summer, when thousands of houses on the river open to the water, boats come and go through the culvert, the little lady next door squats on the water steps and rubs her clothes, her bright wrists are stained with the color of water, like frost and snow And clean.Baili Jueming stood at the bow of the boat, and Huanyi Niang threw lotus pods on his boat along the way.Later Xie Xunwei also left the cabin and sat at Baili Jueming's feet, the lotus rain stopped.

Arriving at the Yu Mansion in the evening, looking up, the blue tiles and white walls, and the plaque of Yu's family hung high on the eaves, it is a majestic and majestic house.The housekeeper who came out to greet him whispered a few words to Yu Fuchun, Yu Fuchun's expression suddenly changed, and he sent Baili Cassia to the West Wing, with a sad face on his face, "My mother is ill, treat Qin Shaoxia slowly, no wonder Qin Shaoxia." He hesitated After a while, he said, "You don't have to worry about retiring the engagement. When my mother gets better, I will definitely report it to my mother."

Even if this kid knows current affairs, Baili Jueming waved him to go.It's strange to say that along the way, I only heard them talking about Mrs. Ma'am, but never heard them mention Mrs. Yu's family. I don't know why.

The master of the Yu family, Yu Lianhai, has never seen Baili Jueming. As early as ten years ago, the Yu and Xie families jointly explored the ghost country of Huangquan, and Yu Lianhai went deep into the secret realm as the leader of the team, and never came back.The Yu family has always relied on Mrs. Yu to preside over the overall situation, but they are still standing on the left side of the river.During the encirclement and suppression of Baochen Mountain eight years ago, the first batch of flying sword pioneers to rush to the top of the mountain were the children of the Yu family appointed by Mrs. Yu.

He peeled off his clothes in front of the mirror, and his tall figure was reflected in the brass mirror. The original body was in excellent shape, with tight muscles, and fine textures could be discerned when he looked closely. Like a cold front in a sheath.However, it was different now. The rotten area started to spread from the palm of the right hand, extending towards the forearm, and a large bruise appeared on the abdomen, which looked extremely scary at first glance.

He is a ghost, and evil spirits have to attach themselves to the corpse to walk in the world.If it is a ghost, it will wander around.The light, shadow, and sound in the eyes and ears of ghosts are different from what human eyes and ears see and hear. They cannot communicate and communicate, just like a solitary smoke in an abandoned chimney. A situation where ghosts cover their eyes.Therefore, almost all ghosts instinctively search for the physical body and want to return to the human world.

Baili Jueming was different, he didn't care whether he became a lonely ghost or was sealed.He stayed here just to find out.He was running spiritual power, trying his best to maintain his body with the least amount of spiritual power, simulating the temperature and breathing of ordinary people.The use of spells is too harmful to the body, so he can no longer use spells easily, he wants to stay with Xun Wei for a while longer, and he has to find a way to settle Xun Wei's destination.The Xianmen school-aged men whom I have known in the past few days are fat and ugly, and none of them look up to them.Putting on his clothes again, he sighed deeply.

It was night, and the crescent moon climbed to the corner of the eaves.Baili Jueming couldn't sleep, so he leaned under the big locust tree and watched.Several servants walked by in the corridor, biting each other's ears.

"I don't know what's wrong with Madam, why is she so sleepy?" a maid asked.

"Who knows? The day before yesterday was the First Lord's sacrifice day, Madam set up a Taoist temple outside the city to perform rituals, and she lay down when she came back. I just heard from the Eldest Young Master that it seems to have collided with some evil thing?" Another short maid said in a low voice.

No wonder I had to mention Yu Lianhai, it turned out that Wang Ba had already gone to see Hades.Baili Cassia thought lazily.

"Impossible, the Eldest Young Master must have read it wrong. Madam is very moral, what kind of evil spirit can do anything wrong in front of Madam's eyes? I think Madam is too tired for ritual affairs." The tall maid muttered.

The two servant girls walked in, saw Baili Cassia Ming, and blessed themselves.Seeing the faces of these two girls, Baili Jueming raised his eyebrows.

When they were far away, they bit their ears again, "Is that the shabby household in Huaizuo? I heard he wants us to find a lady."

They thought that Baili Jueming couldn't hear, so they spoke more and more recklessly.

The tall servant girl sneered and said: "He thinks beautifully. Don't talk about the eldest son, which son of the Xianmen family doesn't fight for our lady? Last time, the boss of the Xiao family stabbed the lady's name on his chest. He hanged himself at home to force his mother to propose marriage. The madam betrothed the eldest son and the lady, so he gave up. Hmph, how could the lady marry such a poor and settled family?"

"Yeah, with his family background, I'm grateful to be able to enter the gate of our Yu family's mansion." The short maid touched her arm, "Hey, don't you feel a little cold?"

The tall servant girl hissed, "I feel it too when you say that."

Baili Jueming rolled his eyes, took a falling locust tree leaf, and wiped his eyelids.The locust leaves can see ghosts, the world in front of them suddenly changes, the night is misty, the small courtyard is like a gloomy big water tank, and the moonlight is like blue and white water waves.He looked at the two maidservants who were walking away slowly, and behind them was an erratic black shadow, following each step, and they didn't notice it at all.

The black figure suddenly turned its head, gave Baili Jueming a strange smile, and disappeared in a flash.

The two were talking, when they suddenly bumped into a person in front of them, and looked up, it was Baili Cassia who had just passed by.The man's stature is very tall, looking down on them is very arrogant.

When did this person come here?The two of them were speaking ill of him, but they didn't expect this man to appear in front of them suddenly, and they were shocked.Taking two steps back, he bowed his head in fear, "Young Master Qin."

"It's getting dark, go back to the house quickly. If someone calls your name from behind on the road, don't look back."

The person in front of him put down his words coldly, but when the two of them raised their eyes again, he disappeared again.

Baili Jueming traveled all the way and saw many servants of the Yu family, only then did he realize that the Yu family looked very wrong.It was almost midnight, and the yin was getting heavier. Baili Jueming stopped a few servants and told them to tell the master to lock the door. Several people in a row looked at him like a monster. He said that there were ghosts in the mansion. All the servants sneered: "Our Yu family is a big family of immortals, how could there be ghosts hiding?"

Baili Jueming sneered, "Anyway, I've already warned you, the rest is up to you."

After leaving the words, he went to find Xie Xunwei.

The night is dark, like a big iron cage under the hood, with red octagonal lanterns hanging under the eaves, laying out an ominous light like blood on the stone steps.Xie Xunwei turned off the light, took off his shoes, and meditated on the bed with his eyes closed.His yard was very quiet, as if there were no living people.He was also quiet and silent.He knew that something had entered his garden and was slowly approaching his window lattice.The thing walked without sound, like a ghost without feet.

If the candle is not extinguished, it will reveal that Xie Xunwei's shadow is expanding and deforming, like a dormant beast slowly arching its back.Now his shadow was one with the darkness, gritting his teeth and sucking blood.

The thing quietly opened the window, turned in, tiptoed, without making any sound.Xie Xun frowned slightly, evil spirits wouldn't act like this, aren't they ghosts?The shadow in the darkness continued to expand until it covered the entire canopy bed.

"Xunwei?"

A familiar voice sounded, and the shadow retracted in an instant, disappearing without a trace.

"Brother Qin?" Xie Xun Wei stood up and asked in surprise.

"It's me," Baili Jueming squatted beside his bed, "Is there nothing strange about you here?"

"No, what's the matter?" Xie Xun slightly lifted the lotus-colored bed curtain, revealing a gap, and he saw Baili Jueming frowning.

"There's something wrong with the Yu family. Have you noticed? The people here look weird." Baili Jueming said.

"Strange?" He pretended not to know, showing a helpless wry smile, "Are you saying they are ugly?"

"It's really ugly," Baili Jueming was tired from squatting, so he simply sat on the footrest, "But that's not what I'm talking about. I saw a fierce look on their faces, their faces were full of evil spirits, and their faces were red. This is a sign of great evil. Sign. I heard that Mrs. Yu's family went to the suburbs to do a ritual a few days ago, and she fell asleep after returning, which probably has something to do with that ritual."

"Oh?" Xie Xunwei asked, "Isn't the Buddhist ceremony meant to pray for blessings and avoid disasters?"

"No," Baili Jueming said, "There are yin and yang things in legal affairs. The Yu family sacrifices to the ancestors, so what they do must be yin. The undead come to the dojo to be transformed. If there is a mistake in this ritual, it will not be the undead of the ancestors that will be summoned, but the evil ghost from another side."

"Brother Qin, what do you mean that Mrs. Yu summoned an evil spirit?"

Baili Jueming said: "No, just now I ran into the evil ghost Ye Xing, and he was looking for someone to possess him. But this guy was very smart, he was quick, and he didn't catch him."

Xie Xun shook his head slightly, "The Yu family is a fairy sect, and his wife is also quite virtuous. Daoist rituals are compulsory rituals for the disciples of the immortal sect. Even rural Taoist priests are familiar with it by heart. How could they summon the wrong ghost?"

"Who knows, I'm so confused." Baili Jueming shrugged.

Just as he was talking, there was a noise outside, as if something had smashed the flower pot.Baili Jueming frowned, Xie Xunwei also got out of bed, the two of them bent their bodies against the door, poked a hole in Qian Yarn, and looked out quietly.I saw a figure at the corner door, looking in.

"Who? Come here in the middle of the night, do you want to be an apprentice?" Baili Jueming was furious for daring to peek into his apprentice's boudoir, "His grandma, I'll see if I will kill him!"

Xie Xunwei smiled helplessly, this guy himself came here in the middle of the night, why didn't he say he was a disciple?Xie Xunwei pulled him back, "Something's wrong, look carefully at his neck."

Baili Juexing stared intently, and suddenly shrank his pupils.The man was behind the door, looking in with his head tilted, but the neck was so tilted that it almost fell off his shoulders.If it looked like a normal person, his neck would have been broken long ago.The man stayed behind the door for a while, then jumped out like a sparrow, a thin figure with a crooked neck, jumped into the blue-white courtyard, and stood silently in the middle.

The small courtyard where Xie Xunwei lives is called Jingyuan. There are eight or nine rooms and a firewood house. Xie Xunwei lives in the main house by himself. .The man with the crooked neck started from the south and opened the rooms one by one. The wooden doors creaked, which was very ear-piercing in the silent night.He jumped in, and after a while, came out again.

"Those houses can't live in people." Xie Xunwei told Baili Jueming with his mouth.

Baili Jueming frowned, wondering why the Yu family didn't even give her orders?Usually there are maids and servants guarding the night outside the room of brothers and sisters, but Xie Xunwei has no one here.

The man with the crooked neck was still opening the door, he had to jump in and wander around every room, Baili Jueming and Xie Xunwei could both hear his bouncing and bouncing.This person's body is already very stiff, unable to walk like a normal person, and can only jump.There were three more rooms, and he was almost at the main house.

Baili Jueming signaled her to go back to the inner room, he bolted the door, bowed and followed behind, and they went to bed together.The crooked man's footsteps were getting closer and closer, reaching the door.He pushed the door, but it wouldn't move.It was quiet outside for a while, and there was no sound of footsteps.Baili Jueming listened silently, and suddenly there was the sound of the door latch sliding again. He was startled, and opened the bed curtain to see that there were five extremely long fingernails protruding from the crack of the door. it moves away.

Nails are so long!Only the hair and nails continue to grow after death, so the zombie must have been dead for some years.It seems that he did not succeed in possessing himself, and still used his own corpse to act.

The door latch was pushed open, and the thin, crooked neck and long shadow fell into the ground of the house, there was an indescribable horror.With a bang, he leaped onto the threshold of the main house.It was a tall, lanky man, with his hands raised horizontally, his ten fingernails were sharp and thin, almost as long as an elbow.Baili Jueming quickly put down the bed curtain.The man with the crooked neck started jumping around the room, bumping into tables and chairs several times.Through the bed curtain, the two saw the man with the crooked neck getting closer, and the terrifying shadow was reflected on the bed curtain, getting bigger and bigger.

The man with the crooked neck wandered around and whispered, "Where is the bed...the bed..."

Baili Jueming and Xie Xunwei looked at each other, he was looking for a bed!

Ghosts with low morals and low morals are lacking in sanity, and rely on the toes of their shoes to face the bed.If the toe of the shoe is facing the bed, the ghost will go to bed. Old people in the country teach their children to put the shoes back and forth before going to bed, so that the ghost will not find the bed.Baili Jueming looked down, Xie Xunwei's shoes were facing the bed.Seeing that the crooked neck man was getting closer and closer, the sound of bouncing and bang bang was heavy and rapid, as if urging his life.

Suddenly, with an idea, Baili Jueming took off the silver bracelet from Xie Xunwei's hand, opened the bed curtain, and threw it towards the opposite side.The silver bracelet slammed into the wall with a bang, then fell to the ground again, spinning around in a circle.The man with the crooked neck quickly turned around, jumped over, and slammed into the wall.

Taking advantage of this moment, Baili Jueming quickly got out of the bed curtain, leaned forward and brought up Xie Xunwei's shoes.It was only when I got it in my hand that Xie Xunwei's shoes were very big, and they seemed to be about the same size as him.Baili Jueming was a little speechless, a girl, why are her feet so big?

The man with the crooked neck bumped into the wall several times, and seemed to know that there was no way ahead, so he retreated to the back room and started to wander again.He got close to the bed, and ran across the bed curtain with his raised hands, the bed curtain was cut with a thud, and ten pointed nails poked in, almost hitting Baili Jueming's eyeball.The two of them carefully avoided the extremely long nails, and squeezed together at the corner of the bed.

Xie Xunwei couldn't help leaning towards Baili Jueming, who was squeezed against the wall by her.It was really uncomfortable, Baili Jueming pushed her.In the darkness, Xie Xun blinked slightly, looking innocent.

The nails passed over their heads, but the man with the crooked neck couldn't find anything. He mechanically said, "Where's the bed...", turned around with his feet, and jumped out like a grasshopper.

Baili Jueming lifted the quilt, tiptoed out of bed, and followed the ghost soundlessly.He stopped when he reached the door, and watched the crooked-neck ghost hop and go away.

Watching the crooked man out of the courtyard, Baili Jueming closed the door and came back, Xie Xunwei was leaning on the pillow and waiting for him, and said: "How did Brother Qin know that the ghost is coming here?"

"I guessed it," Baili Jueming said, "you are a pure yin body, and you are the best at attracting ghosts. If there are ghosts in the mansion, they will definitely come to you. Fortunately, I am here. If I don't come tonight, you will be asleep When this guy breaks in, you will die."

"Brother Qin, you are the best for me." Xie Xun smiled generously.

"Of course." Baili Jueming snorted.

This guy was as immodest as ever, Xie Xun covered his lips and smiled lowly.The melting moonlight outlined her eyebrows and eyes, and the bright red at the tip of her eyes was softer than the clouds.With such a tall body and such a heavy weight, Baili Jueming felt that she was more suitable to be a man, and if she was a man, she should also be a very beautiful man.

"Brother Qin, can you stay with me tonight?" Xie Xunwei gently grabbed his wrist, "The house is haunted, I'm afraid."

The way she begged was pitiful, people who didn't know thought she was begging her lover brother not to abandon her.

Taught her to practice well since she was a child, and when she went out in the future, gods and ghosts would make a detour.Baili Jueming was depressed, he didn't realize that when he grew up, he would become a coward.Forget it, she's a girl, so she can't whip her with straw sandals like a kid.He sighed, "Okay, I'll just sit by your bed and not go anywhere." Then he said, "Do you think this crooked neck ghost looks weird?"

Xie Xunwei frowned, and pondered: "Well, the neck? Maybe it's a hanged ghost, the rope broke the neck, so it's crooked like this."

"No, I saw his face when he entered the door just now." Baili Jueming said.

"Oh?" Xie Xunwei asked, "Could it be that Brother Qin knows him?"

Baili Jueming was silent for a while, his eyes dimmed.

He said, "I think... he looks a lot like you."
