Jiang Yingyue and Shen Zihan couldn't help but exclaim, their voices much louder than those three sticks of incense exploding and falling to the ground.
"Shut up!" Old Qiu Tou looked at the frightened Jiang Yingyue and Shen Zihan with an unkind look, his voice was low, and he was obviously dissatisfied. The two of them were so frightened that they just suppressed their screams.
"The scene was a bit unexpected, but it wasn't out of control or anything to make a fuss about."
Old Qiu Tou put away the four yellow symbols at the four corners of the map and put them under his nose and smelled them. His expression was very serious, but after a while, his frown gradually relaxed.
Lao Qiu Tou walked up to Tan Xuan and cupped his hands towards Tan Xuan. He said with a hint of guilt: "Mr. Tan, I'm really sorry. I'm not a good scholar and my ability is limited. I can't be of much help in this matter."
Tan Xuan's face remained calm. He looked at the broken sandalwood on the map and was about to turn into powder, then curled his lips and said, "Don't tell me those useless things. If you are not good at learning, you are sorry for your master, and
What does it have to do with me, tell me, what did you find? What is going on in this situation?"
Old Qiu Tou gave a wry smile, picked up the map on the ground and shook it twice, then folded it and put it back into his rickshaw. Then he picked up other things, and after they were all packed together, he said to Tan Xuan
: "Mr. Tan, this Jiang Mingcheng did not wander around the world after his death. His soul went directly there. My technique is limited by the rules of the two realms and cannot break through the barrier between the two realms, so this situation occurs."
Tan Xuan frowned slightly and asked, "You mean Jiang Mingcheng went there directly after his death and didn't stay in this world at all?"
Lao Qiu nodded, "What can be inferred from the situation just now is indeed what you said."
"After he died and no longer wandered around in the world, did a special escort take him away?" Tan Xuan muttered a few words and then shook his head, "But with his virtue, which escort would take a fancy to him?
, Impossible. And what he told Shen Zihan in his dream was that he was with that female ghost."
"Could it be that the female ghost picked him up directly?" Xiao Di answered from the side.
Old Qiu Tou directly shook his head and denied what Xiao Di said, "It's impossible. Taking away the souls of newly deceased people so quickly is not something that ordinary ghosts can do. Unless the other party is at the level of a ghost king, he can have that ability. But generally
How could a ghost at that level come here specifically for a kid? Is there anything special about that kid?"
Tan Xuan snorted at the side and said: "What's so special about him? Whether he is a good person or a bad person, he is not qualified. What kind of Yin God of that level would go out of his way to do this for him.
"
Lao Qiu tightened his gray beard and said with a puzzled expression: "Then this situation is puzzling to me, the old man."
Seeing that the expert Tan Xuan was looking for was helpless, Jiang Yingyue's mood plummeted even more. She looked at Old Qiu Tou and begged: "Master, please help me think of a solution again. I beg you."
Lao Qiu shook his head, sighed, and said: "Oh! It's not that I won't help you, but I really have no other way. Yin and Yang are separated, your brother has already gone over there, and there is nothing I can do for you. You
Let's ask Mr. Tan, maybe he will have other ideas."
Tan Xuan glared at Old Qiu Tou. He didn't expect the old guy to push himself out so easily to block the hole of the gun. As a result, Old Qiu Tou just smiled at him without any hint of guilt.
"Tan Xuan, please think of a way. No matter where he is in Mingcheng, he is suffering now. Tan Xuan, please, please think of a way. That female ghost must have evil intentions.
, please save him..."
When she begged Lao Qiu Tou, Jiang Yingyue was at least a little reserved, but when she faced Tan Xuan, she didn't care at all. Her face was full of tears. Although she didn't cry, her expression was even uglier than crying.
"hiss……"
Tan Xuan's brows furrowed deeply. He found that Jiang Yingyue seemed to have learned the true story of Zhang Chunlan. He really wanted to kill someone if he caught him. It didn't matter whether it was a life-saving straw or a hair. Anyway, it was...
Never let go at all.
Seeing Jiang Yingyue's sad, helpless and begging look, Xiao Di couldn't bear it anymore. He pulled Tan Xuan's arm and whispered: "The one you know in white is called Sister Quan'er.
Isn’t your friend very powerful? She can definitely solve this matter, why don’t you invite her here?”
When Jiang Yingyue heard Xiao Di's words, she grabbed Tan Xuan like crazy, "What, you know someone else, then invite her over quickly, please. As long as you can help Mingcheng
, I can do anything you ask me to do, even if I work as a cow or a horse for you in my next life..."
Tan Xuan glared at Xiao Di, then threw away Jiang Yingyue's hand and said with a bored expression: "I'm just helping you, do you want to drag my friends in too? They work all day long.
I'm so busy that I don't have time to take care of this trivial matter in Jiang Mingcheng. Do you want to think about this?"
"But Mingcheng..."
"It's nothing. In your heart, your brother's affairs are important, but others are also busy with other people's affairs. Don't plan to let others revolve around you. Your family's affairs are not worth mentioning in the eyes of others.
"
Annoyed, really annoyed, Tan Xuan was already extremely annoyed by Jiang Yingyue's indifferent behavior. After scolding Jiang Yingyue, he also nagged at Xiao Di.
"Don't give random ideas. I've helped them enough. After this time, I won't care about their family's bad things anymore. Why did you bring Sister Quan'er and the others in and get angry with them? Just Quan'er.
Sister's temper, if she sees the virtues of her family, it would be nice not to take them all away, but to help them. Go ahead and dream. Especially Jiang Mingcheng's bastard, if Brother Gou sees it, he will slap him
You have to beat him to pieces."
"ah!"
Hearing Tan Xuan's words, Jiang Yingyue shivered with fright and did not dare to continue begging. Although Xiao Di was not very happy, he believed Tan Xuan's words. After all, Yu Jing was in the state when she saw Sister Quan'er.
You can see clearly that if he didn't have a bad reputation, he wouldn't have that kind of deterrence.
The crowd was completely shocked. The night wind mixed with moist and cool water vapor hit everyone's faces, penetrated their not-so-thin clothes, and also chilled someone's heart. Everyone focused on something different.
, Tan Xuan looked at the dim river surface, while others looked at him directly or secretly.
After a moment of silence, Old Qiu Tou finally spoke, "Mr. Tan, why don't you contact the people behind you? Maybe they can help."
Tan Xuan withdrew his gaze, turned to look at Old Qiu Tou, and shook his head slightly, "You should have heard about the virtues of those people, saving ghosts, and being perverts. Do you think they can afford to shame that person?"
"But now I don't even know how that kid got there, so I can't help at all." Old Qiu Tou stamped his feet in annoyance, and then whispered: "If it really is someone over there,
The guide came to take him away. Can the two of us argue with them? We can't control this matter, and we can't handle it. Even if you are the ghost king, you still have to take action. My ability is not enough.
It’s stuffed between people’s teeth.”
Tan Xuan laughed, glanced at Old Qiu Tou, and said with disdain: "You have really lived your life in vain, you are too timid, and your brain is not working well now. I have told you that, with those few years
With such a bad temper, they wouldn't even look at Jiang Mingcheng. How could they come to pick him up? Although his ancestors had accumulated some bad virtues, they had been ruined by his family over the past few generations. There was no doubt that it was those people who took him away.
Possibility. As for ghosts at the level of ghost kings and above, there is no need to think about it. That kid can't do anything. He can't be captured to make feed for the crops. He doesn't have any nutrition. What's the use of catching him? Besides, Jiang Mingcheng is dead.
It didn't take long for me to arrive at the scene, and there was no smell left by those big ghosts at all. Do you think they have the courage to cross the line so unscrupulously?"
"Then how did he get there so quickly?" Old Qiu Tou was still puzzled.
Tan Xuan patted Lao Qiu on the shoulder and said with a smile: "So I said you should stop cheating on the street and learn more knowledge. You have little knowledge. Who told you that you will be bitten if you go there?
Those guys just have to take it over."
"Is there any other way?" Old Qiu Tou immediately asked with curiosity.
Tan Xuan smiled slightly, "The so-called yin and yang are just different forms. From yin to yang, and from yang to yin are not just the conventional methods. Jiang Mingcheng can go there directly without having to be guided by those guys, only he and the female ghost are needed
Sign a contract, and when he dies, the female ghost will take him away with the contract. Everything is reasonable and legal, and everything is explained clearly."
"You said that boy from Jiang Mingcheng signed a contract with the female ghost before he was alive?" Old Qiu Tou opened his eyes wide in surprise, and his eyes were bright and dark in a very strange way.
Tan Xuan nodded, "That should be it. People like us know better how powerful the so-called contract is. They can only be so straightforward with the agreement as the premise, otherwise they can't go there so happily and without anyone noticing.
side, and some procedures have been omitted.”
Old Qiu Tou stroked his beard and thought for a while before agreeing with Tan Xuan's words, "What you said is quite possible, but I didn't expect that this kind of situation would happen to an ordinary person. A living person makes a contract with a ghost. This is what I think.
It’s something I didn’t even dare to think about, I didn’t expect this kid would do this.”
Tan Xuan snorted, "He is so bold and thinks about those things all day long. It shouldn't be difficult for that kind of person. Maybe when the female ghost asked him to sign the contract, he didn't even think about the pleasure of the female ghost.
I signed it as soon as I thought about it.”
Old Qiu Tou nodded in deep agreement, "Oh! That's right. The word "sex" has a knife on its head, and it might fall down at some point."
After sighing with emotion, Old Qiu Tou suddenly changed his tone and said, "Mr. Tan, that boy is over there now. Whether he is enjoying happiness or suffering, this is beyond our control. How about forget it."
"ah!"
Hearing that they wanted to leave it alone, Jiang Yingyue immediately refused and begged Tan Xuan and the others with a sad face again.
"Tan Xuan, master, you can't ignore it."
"Everyone living in the world, whether alive or dead, must be governed by rules. Living people have their own rules, and dead people have their own rules. There is a difference between yin and yang. Only those who break the rules can be punished. Your brother
There is nothing we can do about this situation if we want to. Little girl, I can understand your feelings, but you can't force others to make things difficult for you and let others be punished for breaking the rules for your sake. Although it is said that people will be punished by heaven and earth if they don't do it for themselves,
But you can’t let others be punished for your own sake. Girl, I hope you learn to put yourself in someone else’s shoes, otherwise you may lose a lot in the future.”
Old Qiu Tou was not Tan Xuan, and he had no scruples when speaking. He made his attitude clear in just a few words and didn't care what Jiang Yingyue's expression was.
"This..." Jiang Yingyue was at a loss when Old Qiu Tou said that, and she squatted down and sobbed softly.
"Hmph!" Old Qiu Tou snorted disdainfully, "put away your pretentious and pitiful behavior. This trick is of no use to me. What you do will only make me hate you."
After saying that, Old Qiu Tou turned around and cupped his hands to Tan Xuan, "Mr. Tan, my ability is limited. Even if I know the cause of the kid's death, I can't help you. I'm sorry to disappoint you. I'll ask you again when I have the opportunity."
You drink to apologize, and I will leave today."
"What are you talking about? There is no disappointment at all. To be honest, this incident was quite unexpected. If it weren't for their unintentional words, I wouldn't have thought that Jiang Mingcheng signed a contract with a female ghost.
That's why the contract went there so happily. We know the rules here, and there is no need to explain them to them. That's fine, you go back first, and I will come find you when I have time."
"Okay, I'm leaving then. Goodbye."
Old Qiu Tou held hands with Tan Xuan again, said "goodbye" to Xiao Di and left. As for Shen Zihan who had been dumbfounded and Jiang Yingyue who was still crying, he didn't even look at it. Soon, his
The back figure disappeared into the dark night.
"Oh! It's getting late, let's go."
Old Qiu Tou could no longer be seen, and Tan Xuan also waved the other three people to leave.
Xiao Di and Shen Zihan agreed happily and immediately walked to Tan Xuan, but Jiang Yingyue squatted on the ground motionless. Although her sobs were muffled by the sound of water flowing beside her, her shoulders were still shaking under the night light.
.
"Sister Xiaoying, let's go." Shen Zihan walked to Jiang Yingyue and greeted her. Unfortunately, Jiang Yingyue didn't respond and was still sobbing inaudibly.
"Jiang Yingyue, let's go." Xiao Di also came over to comfort her. When she saw that Jiang Yingyue still had no reaction, she turned down her face and said, "This method won't work. Let's ask Tan Xuan to think of other methods for you.
If you have something to say, what's the use of crying like this? Can you make Jiang Mingcheng cry to death, or can you cry him out from the hands of the female ghost?"
Xiao Di's words had an effect, but they didn't persuade Jiang Yingyue to cry. Instead, they made her cry even louder.
Xiao Di was annoyed and yelled at Jiang Yingyue: "That's enough. Don't say that Old Qiu Tou is bothering you. I'm already bothering you. If you want to cry, just cry here. Don't come back to Jiang Mingcheng again in the future.
Fantanxuan, if you want to see your brother, you should leave with us quickly and think of other ways."
"Hey!"
Tan Xuan was speechless for a while. He felt quite relieved after listening to the first half of Xiao Di's sentence. After all, Lao Qiu Tou had just said something that he had been embarrassed to say for a while. The reason why he helped Jiang Yingyue was not because of his relationship with her. After all, that
In the end, there was only resentment instead of love. His help this time was just to see Jiang Yingyue's pity. Of course, it was Xiao Di who was moved to pity, and his sympathy was passive at best.
But what Xiao Di said next left him speechless. Good guy, he sold him out again and renewed his sympathy without his consent.
Sure enough, after hearing Xiao Di's words, Jiang Yingyue stood up and asked Tan Xuan while wiping the tears on his face, "Are you really still willing to help me?"
Tan Xuan sighed, "Is there anything I can do? Someone has already made the decision for me. I have to help even if I don't want to."
Before the joy on Jiang Yingyue's face could be fully expressed, Tan Xuan continued: "Let me explain the matter clearly to you first, so that you won't say that I am not sincere in helping you later. Your brother's matter should not have happened in the first place.
People should take care of it, as Old Qiu Tou said, people have their own rules, ghosts have their own rules, and anyone who crosses the line will be punished. As long as your brother and the female ghost don't harm the world, I shouldn't ask him where he is.
The life there will not take risks or break the rules for you. Don't make any other demands from me, and don't talk about repaying me by working as a cow or a horse in your next life. I don't need it. All I can help you now is
Find someone to find your brother's ghost. Please come up and let you meet. Whether to reunite or to complain is up to you. Then dust will return to dust and dust will return to dust. It doesn't matter if you go back and cry to death, he lived there.
It doesn't matter whether it's a pig or a dog. This matter is settled here. I won't take care of things that shouldn't be involved. Also, I've said ugly things in front of you. No matter who you are, if you still bother me endlessly, I will
I'm really rude to you, you have seen what I am capable of dealing with living people..."
Tan Xuan spoke a lot in one breath. I don't know if he was influenced by Old Qiu Tou. Anyway, he spoke very directly and very happily. He said everything he had been holding in his heart for a long time. As for whether he was ruthless or not,
He didn't care about hurting people, he said everything that needed to be expressed anyway.
Jiang Yingyue was stunned. She didn't know whether Tan Xuan's words were too harsh or the amount of information contained in Tan Xuan's words was too great. Anyway, she didn't respond for a long time.
Xiao Di pushed Tan Xuan and scolded: "Tan Xuan, what are you doing? Why are you saying anything at this time?"
Tan Xuan snorted coldly and said: "It's better to say some things. Anyway, you have to say it sooner or later. This way, you won't have to explain it clearly later, which will cause another trouble."
"It's up to you."
Xiao Di rolled his eyes at Tan Xuan angrily, but there was no reproach in his eyes, instead there was some joy.
Xiao Di said to Jiang Yingyue again: "Jiang Yingyue, you also know that Tan Xuan has this temper. Did you hear what he said clearly? If you think it is possible, let him think of a solution for you.
If you think it’s not possible, then there’s nothing we can do.”
"Okay then, I'll thank you for the hard work."
A choice without a choice, how else to choose, Jiang Yingyue could only nod in agreement.
"That's it, let's go." Xiao Di smiled and took Jiang Yingyue's arm and walked towards the car.
"Are we going to find other people to help now?" Jiang Yingyue asked hopefully.
Tan Xuan's face turned dark instantly. Fortunately, the light in the middle of the night was too dim and it was not obvious. Xiao Di also felt ashamed.
"What are you thinking? Aren't you going to rest at this time? If you don't rest, others will have to rest as well. Go back and have a good sleep. Let's see what Tan Xuan does tomorrow."
Jiang Yingyue stayed at Tan Xuan's house that night. This time she did not continue to refuse and completely obeyed Xiao Di's arrangement. She still lived in the same room she had lived in before, but her identity was completely different when she moved in again. And there was Shen Zihan in the same bed.
The next day, Tan Xuan and Jiang Yingyue slept until three o'clock in the morning before leaving the bedroom. At this time, Jiang Yingyue and Shen Zihan were already waiting quietly in the living room. It seemed that they did not sleep well last night. Shen Zihan sat People on the sofa were still yawning again and again. As for Jiang Yingyue, she was staring at a pair of dark circles under her eyes.
There was no politeness, or even greetings. Tan Xuan and Xiao Di took a shower and came out with Jiang Yingyue and Shen Zihan. There was nothing they could do, it seemed that these two couldn't wait any longer.
We had breakfast at the gate of the community. Regardless of whether others ate or not, Tan Xuan did not eat less, because he made it clear that after eating this meal, it was not certain when he would have the next meal.
Tan Xuan drove the three women and set off. He didn't tell them where they were going or who they were going to meet. He just drove in silence. Even Xiao Di, who usually had the most problems, was silent today. It's not that she didn't. He asked, but Tan Xuan didn't answer after he asked, and then he simply stopped asking.
Tan Xuan drove the car to the funeral street behind the city hospital. Xiao Di had been to this street several times. When she saw Tan Xuan driving the car here, she knew who the master Tan Xuan was looking for. Sure enough, Tan Xuan parked the car at the door of a house she was familiar with.
"Are you looking for Lao Lu and Xiao Lu?" Xiao Di asked. After the car stopped, she took the lead in pushing open the car door.
"You don't have to get out of the car." Tan Xuan unbuckled his seat belt and got out of the car without even turning off the engine.
"Well……"
Xiao Di was a little puzzled, but he closed the car door obediently, and then explained to the two people behind him how powerful the young man in this shop was and how his maid was a paper doll. Shen Zihan was stunned and trembling. As for Jiang Yingyue, she had been in a daze. She had been like this since she left home in the morning. She didn't know whether she didn't have a good rest or was too stimulated.
Tan Xuan went in for a while and then came out. He took a business card in his hand and said goodbye to the boss and his son inside at the door. Then he returned to the car and turned around and left.
"Aren't you asking Lu Zhengyang for help?" Xiao Di asked doubtfully.
"He couldn't help me with this, so I asked him to introduce me to someone who could help." Tan Xuan glanced at the address on the business card again and threw the card aside.
