Huangquan Roadside Inn

The Qingxin Pearl in Baixi's hand can track the soul, but the white light of the Qingxin Pearl disappeared when it reached Yuzhou City.

Qingyun was still a little puzzled, so he couldn't help asking: "My lord, why is this light..."

Bai Xi took Qing Xinzhu back and let out a long breath, looked sideways at the two people in front of him, and said helplessly: "It is recorded in the Book of Life and Death that this soul came from Yuzhou City, and she probably returned to Yuzhou City. Why does the white light stop, I'm afraid she is hiding."

"She is a fierce ghost. If she is not caught, she will do harm to others." Qing Yun said hastily.

"Of course my lord knows, do you think everyone is as stupid as you?" Yue Cheng at the side gave Qing Yun a blank look, and sighed helplessly.

Qing Yun glared at him sideways, and stood on the other side of Bai Xi with a cold snort. Bai Xi looked at the two bickering children in front of him, feeling a little helpless:

"Okay, let's go to Yuzhou City to eat something, inquire about the origin of this soul, and wait for her to relax her vigilance before capturing her."

Qingyun and Yuecheng agreed, and then walked into Yuzhou City together with Baixi.

Xu Shi caught up with the day of the market, the city of Yuzhou was full of people, the goods were overwhelming, and the stalls were full of cosmetics and hairpins.

Qingyun is not very old, only sixteen or seventeen years old. He has been a ferryman not long ago. He still has some nostalgia for everything in the world. Looking at the gadgets on the stalls, he touches them here and there, and follows them. Behind Baixi, she couldn't be happier.

Only Yuecheng's face was gloomy, his brows were slightly frowned, and his face was full of worry: "My lord, you said that there are so many people today, then..."

"No, it's noon at this moment, when the yang energy is at its strongest, even the most powerful evil spirits won't come out." Bai Xi said confidently, looking at the tea shed at the corner of the street, he hurriedly led Qingyun and Yuecheng away Go to sit down, ask for a pot of tea, and listen to the chatter of the workers behind them.

"Have you heard that the number one scholar of the Qiao family is getting married?"

I don't know who made such a remark, suddenly the people who were drinking tea and eating dry food quietly gathered together with the teapots in their hands.

"The Qiao family, is that the Qiao family in East Fourth Alley, the young master Qiao who died in love with the girl from the Mei family?"

"Yes, it's him."

"It's been four or five years since the girl from the Mei family has been gone. Poor old parents, Wan Guan's family wealth was gone, and they couldn't get justice for their daughter in the end. It was Mr. Qiao who said he died for love with others, and in the end he was greedy and afraid die."

…………

Hearing the discussions behind her, Bai Xi suddenly remembered that the escaped soul was called Mei Ruhua, who was from Yuzhou City. Hearing what they said, the girl from the Mei family should be Mei Ruhua.

"Big brothers, ask me, what's the matter with the girl from the Mei family and the young master from the Qiao family?" Bai Xi hurriedly turned around with the teapot in hand, and asked with a smile as he poured more tea for those present.

Those people looked up at Bai Xi, then at the person sitting in his seat, and said with a smile: "The three are from other places, right?"

"We are all failed scholars, and we don't plan to take the exam again, so after listening to what you said, we think about going back to the village in the future and writing a storybook, so that we can earn some money." Bai Xi smiled. .

He had a good-looking face, and such a smile was even more pleasing to the eye. The middle-aged man who drank his tea put down his tea bowl and began to talk about a well-known joke in Yuzhou City five years ago.

Why is it a joke, because in the eyes of all of them, what the Mei family girl did is a joke.

Five years ago at the Flower Festival in Yuzhou City, Mei Ruhua, a girl from the Mei family, accompanied by her nurse and maidservants, went to the Flower God Temple to worship the Flower God and pray for marriage. Qiao Shu fell in love at first sight.

One looks like a fairy, and the other is suave.

Although Qiao Shu's family was poor, the girl from Mei's family was stubborn, so she decided on Qiao Shu, and asked her younger brother to be an enlightenment teacher through her parents, and brought Qiao Shu into the mansion, relying on her younger brother every day. Send a book to understand lovesickness.

A young girl who is just in love has no reason not to be indifferent to a talented person like Qiao Shu, especially a handsome talented person, so what if his family background is poor, Mei Ruhua likes it, so she falls headlong into it, and can't listen Advice from others.

But Qiao Shu gradually alienated Mei Ruhua because of his family background, and Mei Ruhua was an infatuated woman. Qiao Shu alienated her, so she went to look for him. Mei Ruhua was locked in the embroidery building.

The Mei family's parents also approached Qiao Shu, and he promised that he would never set foot in the Mei family again, cut off contact with Mei Ruhua, and even wrote a final letter.

The Mei family's parents were very satisfied, but Mei Ruhua cried to the death and almost committed suicide.

Cuiyu, Mei Ruhua's personal maid, couldn't see her girl's sad appearance, so she secretly acted as a messenger, delivering letters between Mei Ruhua and Qiao Shu.

At first, Qiao Shu had a firm heart and ignored Mei Ruhua's letter, but gradually he was shaken, but he still couldn't see Mei Ruhua because of his commitment.

In order to make Mei Ruhua give up, the Mei family's parents also arranged a marriage for her, which can be regarded as the right family.

Upon hearing that Mei's parents had engaged Mei Ruhua, Qiao Shu, who had been vacillating before, was also shaken. That night, he sneaked into Mei's house secretly, took Mei Ruhua out of the house, and prepared to elope.

Not wanting to be reported, the Mei family's parents led someone to capture Mei Ruhua and Qiao Shu, and beat Qiao Shu hard in front of Mei Ruhua.

Mei Ruhua cried because her heart was broken, and finally couldn't bear the torture of her beloved, so she gave up elopement with Qiao Shu and prepared to marry with peace of mind.

Qiao Shu was seriously injured and kicked out of Mei's house, but he was still thinking about Mei Ruhua who wanted to marry someone else, and because Mei Ruhua couldn't marry the one she loved, when Qiao Shu met her secretly, Turning Luan and Phoenix upside down, I have tasted the cloud and rain for the first time.

Seeing that the wedding is approaching, but Mei Ruhua has a body. The girl who has not left the court has a body. This is a great shame to the Mei family. Under the pressure of Mei's mother, she reveals the fact that she and Qiao Shu have been married for a long time.

Mei's mother was so angry that she couldn't get sick, and the marriage fell through. Therefore, Mei's father drove Mei Ruhua out of the house and severed the relationship between father and daughter.

Penniless Mei Ruhua had no choice but to seek refuge with Qiao Shu. When Qiao Shu learned that she was pregnant, he cared for her very well. However, Qiao's mother looked down on Mei Ruhua, a woman who was pregnant before marriage. Rao is her own grandson in her womb, she is still dissatisfied and targets her everywhere.

In the twelfth lunar month of winter, I had to carry water and chop firewood. Because Qiao Shu was a scholar, he couldn't carry it on his shoulders or hands, so Mei Ruhua did all the big and small things in the family. Busy more than, and finally slipped tires.

Qiao's mother looked at her coldly. Even in the confinement period, she didn't have a hot meal. Because of Qiao's relationship, Qiao Shu couldn't find a place in Yuzhou City to sell calligraphy and paintings, or to be someone else's mansion. My husband, life is getting more and more difficult, every day when he comes home, he has to listen to his mother's accusations against Mei Ruhua, and finally he can't bear it anymore, and he slams the door and leaves.

Qiao Shu slammed the door away, and Qiao's mother became even more displeased with Mei Ruhua, beating and scolding her frequently.

Until one day, Mother Qiao led another man back home. The man took a fancy to Mei Ruhua's beauty and forcibly made love to her. generally.

It wasn't until the man went out satisfied and gave her a piece of silver that she showed a long-lost smile.

That eerie, sickening smile.

Mother Qiao, who had tasted the sweetness, brought more and more men to the house, sometimes three or four in a day, and Mei Ruhua was forced by Mother Qiao to become a secret prostitute.

Qiao Shu had a drink with his friends every day and came back very late, so he didn't notice Mei Ruhua's strangeness at all.

Mei Ruhua regretted it, but she never had the face to go back to her parents, and hated Qiao's mother to the core, thinking how to make her suffer for the rest of her life, so she secretly bought medicine and poured it into the wine cup between herself and Qiao Shu .

Originally, both of them drank poisonous wine, but in the end, only Mei Ruhua died in Huangquan, while Qiao Shu survived a catastrophe and was rescued.

Although Mei's parents hated their daughter for being blindfolded, they still felt distressed. They heard that Mei Ruhua died in Qiao's house, or died of poisoning, so they started a lawsuit, suing Qiao's mother and son for killing others.

Who would have thought that among the people who drank with Qiao Shu every day, there was a son of a high-ranking official in the court. He just moved his tongue, and Qiao Shu's mother and son were released from prison.

From then on, the Mei family's parents sued the Qiao family, and they were kicked out of the yamen.

Qiao Shu, on the other hand, made a connection, went to the capital in the year of the imperial examination, and won the first prize in the examination, which can be regarded as a glorious ancestor.

It is said that the one who returned was given a marriage by the sage, the prime minister's niece, the head of Huirong County, and she was promoted steadily. The world only knew Qiao Zhuangyuan, and they all forgot the poor Qiao Sheng back then.

After listening to the stories told by those people at the tea stand, Bai Xi suddenly remembered the time when Mei Ruhua appeared in the inn.

She couldn't pass through the gate of the underworld because his resentment was too heavy and his obsession was too deep, so she stayed in the underworld inn.

Now she has become a Sha, a ghost, presumably because she felt that Qiao Shu married someone else, and she was unwilling to do so, and became a ghost under the catalysis of resentment.

"My lord, is this girl from the Mei family..."

Just as Qingyun was about to speak, he was blocked by Baixi, and continued to add tea to the storytellers. After the pot of tea was exhausted, Baixi left with Qingyun and Yuecheng.

"My lord, where are we going to find that ghost now?" Qing Yun followed Bai Xi's footsteps and asked.

"Go to Qiao's house." Bai Xi replied.

"Why?" Qingyun asked puzzled.

"You're stupid, you don't understand even if you tell me, just keep up." Yuecheng taunted Qingyun mercilessly, and Qingyun's eyes widened in anger.

But Yuecheng caught up with Baixi like a normal person.
