People in the world need gold to make friends, but not much gold, but no deep friendship.

Even if you promise to make promises, you will eventually be in a leisurely way.

This poem was written by Zhang Wei, a poet of the Tang Dynasty. It is called "Inscription on the Master of Chang'an Wall". It refers to the matter of friendship. Most friends in this world often interact with each other for profit. When the benefits are over, the friendship will fade. When friends talk about sermons and papers, once they reach the interest, they will be like strangers.

Just like Li Zhiyuan, he was originally a famous talent in Weinan, but because of the Ruan family, he had abusive local wealthy people and was sent back by a servant for insulting the county magistrate in Pucheng. Therefore, the local officials were too far away from it. Only Tao Wangsan did not avoid other people's opinions and came here to pay tribute to Li Zhiyuan.

This alone made Su Yang look down on him much more.

Thousands of ideas and schemes are common here, but the only way to walk alone and be consistent is the back of this world.

"Mr. Tao."

Su Yang stopped in front of Tao Wangsan, smiled and said hello, "Young Master is so kind."

Tao Wangsan had just walked out of Li Zhiyuan's home, with tears vaguely hanging on his face. At this moment, he saw someone greeting him in the middle of the passage. Seeing that this person looked very handsome, he did not dare to neglect. He quickly wiped his tears, bowed respectfully to Su Yang, and asked, "I think you look very handsome, who are you?"

Su Yang looked at Tao Wangsan's shocked and suspicious appearance and praised him: "I am Li Zhiyuan's friend."

When Tao Wangsan heard that it was Li Zhiyuan's friend, he felt sad and shed a few more tears. He looked at Su Yang and said sadly: "I didn't expect that Zhiyuan's friend in Pucheng could follow him all the way."

Su Yang reached out and patted Tao Wangsan and said, "True feelings are shown in times of adversity. This juncture related to interests has measured a lot of people's hearts. The young master can come to pay tribute regardless of the world, which shows his heart."

Tao Wangsan turned his head and looked at the mourning hall in Li Zhiyuan's home. There were only two lonely lamps, a straw mat, dozens of relatives and friends, and they were miserable and sad, and there were not many crying sounds. Seeing this made him feel even more lonely.

"Mr. Tao."

Su Yang looked at Tao Wangsan and said, "I came from another place and there is no place to accommodate this Weicheng. I wonder if Mr. Tao is convenient for me to stay in the house for one night?"

Tao Wangsan's expression changed when he heard this, and his face became uncomfortable.

He is indeed a sincere gentleman. He lives in a ghost house and cannot offend him. The person in front of him is a foreigner. If he lives in a ghost house and is fascinated by the appearance of the two women, he will inevitably have his soul back to the darkness. How could he make a decision?

"Young Master!"

Yang Ergou was a little anxious when he saw Su Yang wanting to live with Tao Wangsan. Naturally, he knew that the place where Tao Wangsansu lived was a famous ghost house in Weinan. It was very unknown. There were several people dead there. Therefore, when he heard that Su Yang wanted to live in Tao Wangsan's house, he said panic: "If you don't have a place to live, you can stay in my house for a while. My brother and I will give you the bed at home."

Tao Wangsan was relieved when he heard Yang Ergou say this aside.

Su Yang looked at Yang Ergou and praised her. He reached out and took out a piece of gold in his arms, handed it to Yang Ergou, and said, "Please take this money and buy three-piece wine and food for me and Brother Tao and send it to Brother Tao's residence. Today, Brother Tao and I will be drunk before we can stop."

Yang Ergou was holding gold. He had never handled so much money. After getting the gold, he felt uneasy and stood there and didn't know how to move for a moment.

When Tao Wangsan saw Su Yang holding gold, he knew that Su Yang was not a poor person, so he quickly said, "Brother, since he has a lot of money, he should look for a restaurant. My place is deserted and remote, and I am afraid that the hospitality is not good."

There were ghosts at home, so Tao Wangsan naturally could not bring Su Yang to the ghost house.

Seeing Tao Wangsan doing this, Su Yang smiled and said, "But the ghosts in the house cannot see people?"

Tao Wangsan looked at Su Yang, and Su Yang looked at Tao Wangsan and said, "Brother Tao, I'm afraid there are more ghosts than you have seen."

When Tao Wangsan heard this, he felt that he had a breath, but he was very confused about the person in front of him.

"Let's go."

Su Yang patted Tao Wangsan on the shoulder and said.

Tao Wangsan looked at Su Yang and then took Su Yang towards the Jiang family's ghost house.

On the way, Tao Wangsan also told Su Yang about the house in Jiang Bulang's house. In the ghost house, he and Xiao Xie Qiurong had developed to the two women cooking for him, and he began to teach these two women to read and read.

The two of them walked from the city of Weinan and headed towards the suburbs. They also had their names on the road. Tao Wangsan knew Su Yang's name. Seeing that he was about to approach the mansion, Tao Wangsan asked: "Brother Su, you gave the money to a stranger. Are you afraid that after this person gets the money, he will refuse to admit his account and not send the wine and food?"

Su Yang smiled and shook his head, saying, "But just one ingot of gold, he took it and took it."

Seeing Su Yang like this, Tao Wangsan smiled bitterly and said, "Brother, he is open-minded." He can't learn this kind of free Ran who treats money without any money.

He didn't know that Su Yang's dissatisfaction came from his current lack of money. Whether it was the money earned for the Orphan spinning machine or Su Yang who knew how to turn stones into gold by himself, money was no longer a problem for Su Yang.

The old house in Jiang Bulang's family is located in the outskirts of Weinan City.

Tao Wangsan brought Su Yang to the old house. Although the mansion was called an old house, the house was old and not dilapidated. It was dark now. Tao Wangsan held the lights at the door. Su Yang followed behind him. Seeing that the courtyard was neat and elegantly arranged, there were ponds and rockery in the house, old wood weeping willows, and flowers were all over the front of the steps. When he walked into the main hall, Tao Wangsan placed the lights on the main house, got up and went outside to prepare tea.

Tao Wangsan left, and the lights here turned green.

Su Yang looked at the door and saw a beautiful woman coming with the lights. After seeing Su Yang, she pursed her lips and chuckled, walked into the main hall slowly, put the light on the table, looked at Su Yang, and asked, "Young Master, do you know that this place is a ghost house? How dare you get into it without any chance?"

Su Yang chuckled. This was the woman in the ghost house and did not welcome him. Seeing that the woman in front of him was not old, she guessed that it was Xiao Xie, and then said, "I know there are ghosts and gods in this world. These ghosts and gods gather together, coming and going, seemingly there are, and there are not, gathering or scattering, and joy or sorrow, scattered in this world, just like wild grass and flowers blooming and falling. These ghosts, those with evil and powerful nature, will be punished by heaven, and those with a fair mind and righteous nature will be harmless to others. Therefore, even though I know the ghost house, I am not afraid."

When the woman heard Su Yang Taotao's argument, she frowned and said, "Did you know that this man and ghost cannot be in the same house? Otherwise, the energy of the underworld will hurt people and take their lives in the dark. Even if the ghost does not hurt people, people will naturally have a short life?"

In the past, the people who watched the door in the house died because of this.

It is precisely because of this that Tao Wangsan and the two of them were together, always abiding by the law and not overstep the line. Their relationship was broken through. After Tao Wangsan encountered a disaster, Qiurong was taken away by the ghosts and gods in the City God Temple and forced to marry him as a concubine. Xiao Xie tried every possible way to protect Tao Wangsan. When the three of them gathered again, Tao Wangsan said, "I wish to die for you today", intending to do something between men and women with Xiao Xie Qiurong.

Xiao Xie Qiurong refused.

Their real wedding night was waiting for Xiao Xie Qiurong to be a villain.

"I'm not afraid."

Su Yang looked at the woman in front of him and smiled, "I just stayed here for a night. If I want to spend a lot of energy overnight, I have to indulge in my desires to do it. But I am open and honest. It is not just a private matter to come here. How can this ghost harm me?"

Only evil heart can attract evil.

If the heart is right, it will be difficult for ghosts to break.

This concept of evil and unrighteousness is useful to most reasonable ghosts. Xiao Xie and Qiurong are both reasonable ghosts.

The woman looked up and down at Su Yang, and saw that Su Yang looked calm. Even when she faced her, she did not change at all. Her eyes were clean and pure, like a gentleman, and said coldly: "I am a ghost!"

Su Yang bowed and said, "I have been long-awaited for a long time."

"Thank you!"

Tao Wangsan and a woman came from outside. Tao Wangsan saw Xiao Xie beside Su Yang and shouted.

The woman next to Tao Wangsan was a little older. Not to mention her appearance, she was far better than ordinary people. She brought hot tea on the table in front of Su Yang.

Xiao Xie pouted slightly, stepped back to Tao Wangsan, and said, "I think he is not afraid of ghosts, which makes him awaken his heart..."

Tao Wangsan bowed to Su Yang and said, "As Brother Su saw, these two are the female ghosts in this house." He pointed to the woman who had just talked to Su Yang, and said, "This is Xiao Xie, surnamed Ruan." He pointed to the older woman beside him and said, "This is Qiu Rong, Qiao."

Qiu Rong is for Qiao, so he naturally got married before his death.

The young Xie surnamed Ruan is Yunying's unmarried body.

Su Yang nodded and chuckled to the two girls.

When writing Xiao Xie's article "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio", Pu Songling naturally followed the idea of ​​"I want everything". The final Tao Wangsan was a harmonious finale. However, when it was time to shoot modern film and television dramas, this "I want everything" idea was amazing. The male protagonist could only have one woman. Therefore, in various versions of film and television dramas, Tao Wangsan faced a choice, that is, choose Xiao Xie or Qiu Rong.

86 When I was in the Stories from a Chinese Studio, Tao Wangsan chose Qiurong.

Then the later students chose the name of the article Xiao Xie.

At this time, Su Yang saw that they were both extremely beautiful and had to change their places and only take one of them, which was really a headache.

Tao Wangsan sat down at this time, and each of Su Yang held up tea bowls and tasted the tea gently.

Seeing this, the two girls of Xiao Xie Qiurong did not disturb them here and left with them.

After a while, Yang Ergou brought wine and food outside the ghost house, and did not dare to enter the door. He shouted loudly through the door. Su Yang smiled and stood up outside, then took the wine and food brought by Yang Ergou.

"Young Master, this is the remaining money."

Yang Ergou held the money in his hand and exchanged it with Su Yang in full swing.

"Ha ha……"

Seeing Yang Ergou's appearance, Su Yang praised him very much and said, "You are so arrogant, but this nature is very precious. Take back the remaining money..." Su Yang put it in Yang Ergou's ear again and whispered: "Get out of your door, under the stone mill at the door, someone buried 100 taels of silver. You and your brother took the money at night. You and you can both marry a wife when you look back."

After hearing these words, Yang Ergou was full of joy. He said goodbye to Su Yang and ran back quickly.

Seeing Yang Ergou leaving, Su Yang turned around and returned to the ghost house. He opened the package and saw that it was pork head meat, pork ribs, roast chicken, peanuts and other things, which were also rich. After preparing the wine and food with Tao Wangsan, Su Yang took out three pairs of bowls and chopsticks from Tao Wangsan's home and placed it in front of the table.

"Brother Su, what does this mean?"

Tao Wangsan looked at the three pairs of bowls and chopsticks on the table and asked, "When you talk to Yang Ergou, you will have three people, and we only have two of us, but who else is going to come to the appointment?"

He and Su Yang are two people, and Xiao Xie Qiurong is two female ghosts. These three bowls and chopsticks cannot be distributed in any way. Therefore, Tao Wangsan thought that there should be another friend.

"good."

Su Yang smiled and pointed to the yard and said, "Look, isn't he here?"

Tao Wangsan looked outside and saw that under Jingyue, Li Zhiyuan, wearing white clothes and neatly dressed, walked in from the yard, bowed to Su Yang and Tao Wangsan each, and sat down at the table.

Tao Wangsan looked at Li Zhiyuan. He had been with Xiao Xie Qiurong in the ghost house for a long time and had no fear of ghosts. At this time, he saw Li Zhiyuan coming here, and he was only happy. He just paid tribute to his old friends in the Ridge and met again tonight. This was really a happy event for Tao Wangsan.

"Thank you, Brother Tao, for seeing you off."

Li Zhiyuan said to Tao Wangsan, then looked at Su Yang, and said, "Thank you for your hospitality."

Su Yang nodded with a smile.

"Brother Li."

Tao Wangsan looked at Li Zhiyuan and said sadly: "Since you and I parted last year, I don't want to be separated by yin and yang..."

Li Zhiyuan saw Tao Wangsan crying, sighed and said, "It was all the dog officials in Pucheng who bullied the people there, privately paid taxes, and made the people plundered by the people. Sitting in the yamen, he even wanted to sprinkle all the bone paste that people had damaged. The family I taught had gone there since winter, and soon they had been involved in a lawsuit. So he arrested Mr. Huang, housekeeper, Huang family, and relatives of the Huang family, and detained them one by one in the yamen. He solicited bribes every day, forcing all the masters and sons of the Huang family to death. Many relatives of the Huang family have dispersed their property, and the case was considered to be withdrawn."

Li Zhiyuan shook his head and said, "I was so angry that I ran to the yamen to scold him. Maybe this thief still had some conscience and didn't beat me to death directly in the yamen and could still send me back."

After telling about the matter in Pucheng, Li Zhiyuan still felt a sense of depression and said, "I appeal to the City God. This Weinan City God cannot control Pucheng, which really makes me die with my eyes!"

When talking about the events before his death, Li Zhiyuan's resentment has not subsided.

When Tao Wangsan heard this, he was filled with righteous indignation and cursed angrily: "The government of Daqian has been ruined until now, and no one can manage it. Especially since the King of Qi entered the capital, the government has become more and more corrupt! I really want to be a knight and cut these dog officials with one blow!"

Su Yang drank a glass of wine, looked at Tao Wangsan and said, "Okay."
