Soon a servant tidied up the hall and served tea again. Judging from the old man's happy expression, he just wanted Du Wu to test my skills. After thinking about it, I wasn't annoyed anymore.
If his skills were not as good as others, he probably wouldn't have a chance to survive. On the contrary, Du Wu forced him out of his potential, and he understood Yu Bu and Tai Chi in an instant, which was a blessing in disguise.
Du Shiqing picked up the teacup, blew on it and said: "Qin Jian, I have been attracted to you since you entered the Forest of Wrongful Ghosts. To be honest, I have a girl named Chunlan who is waiting in my boudoir, and I intend to betroth you to her. So,
I just did a little research on you."
I stood up, cupped my hands, and said with a smile: "If the old gentleman wants to verify it, I naturally have nothing to say. It's just a matter of marriage. I promise it casually, for fear of being biased, so please be careful, old gentleman."
"Qin, don't be so shameless. Your adoptive father looks up to you. It's a blessing you've earned in eight lifetimes..." Du Wu stood up and shouted.
"Well, Du Wu must not be rude. This is the case. I made a wish before my death. If anyone can live and enter the forest of wronged ghosts, I will give him a daughter. This is also God's will. I hope you won't refuse."
When Du Shiqing said this, he looked up to the sky and stroked his beard and sighed: "My ancestors have been protected by my clan for a lifetime, and it's time to end it in my hands."
"Father, how can this, what belongs to our Du family... be given to outsiders?" Du Wu stood up, glanced at me, and hesitated to speak.
Du Wen pulled him to sit down and said with a frown: "My foster father is right. The Forest of Wrongful Ghosts has been here for hundreds of years and no one has been able to find the way back. But Brother Qin and his friends entered. This is God's will."
"Brother Du knows about my friend, but does he know who the old woman with the white edge is?" As soon as I heard that they knew it from the time we entered the Forest of Wrongful Ghosts, they immediately asked excitedly, maybe Caihua can still be saved.
Du Wen shook his head and said: "This Forest of Wrongful Ghosts is divided into two roads, one is our Du Village, and the other is the **. I am afraid your friend was dragged by Grandma Mu to be a substitute. You must have already reached the point of no return."
I saw two solitary graves. Those graves are your choice of no return. Your friend is afraid..."
I shook my head and sat down on the chair feebly. I shook my head and lamented secretly. I didn't expect that those two graves were really a sign of death for both of us.
Du Shiqing stretched out his finger and pinched it, then smiled and said: "Qin Jian, your friend may still be saved. If you can become my son-in-law in Du Zhai, I will personally help you ask for him. I don't think the old woman will dare not give you face."
"Father, that woman hates us to the core, how can she get someone to come?" Du Wu said with a frown.
Du Shiqing pressed the big chair with his left palm, his eyes sank, and he shouted coldly: "If you don't want to come, I have to ask for it."
Then, he added: "My Du family has been guarding this place for hundreds of years, and my descendants have been massacred because of it. My soul can't rest, and my spirit can't rest. I've had enough. Since God's will belongs to Brother Qin, I just obey God's will."
"Father, but..." Du Wu still wanted to say, but Du Wen interrupted him and said: "Du Wu, isn't this the day our people have been waiting for?"
I was overwhelmed by what they were saying, and I thought to myself that if I could really save my good brother Caihua, let alone a female ghost, I would marry a tigress, and I would accept it.
Anyway, it’s not like I’ve never had fun with a female ghost before. The ice-cold taste makes me impatient.
But until now, I have never seen that young lady, and I don’t know if she likes me.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but ask: "Mr. Du, I'm alone. I don't have any requirements, but your daughter may not be able to like me."
"This..." Du Gong and the other three looked at each other with sad expressions on their faces, as if they were in a dilemma.
My heart skipped a beat. It seemed that this marriage was not about the master and the young lady falling in love with me as the housekeeper said. It was just Du Gong's wishful thinking.
"Du Wen, go and urge Chunlan. Tell her that the uncle you are looking for is here and ask her to come out and meet her." Du Gong said sadly.
Du Wen agreed with embarrassment, and within a moment he walked out with a gloomy face and stood in the corridor without saying a word.
"What's the matter, where are the Chunlan people?" Du Gong asked. Du Wen said: "Father, Lan Mei said that she has already been engaged and will never marry another person. If her foster father insists on forcing her, she will cut off her marriage.
My pulse is broken, my soul is gone."
"How outrageous!" Du Gong was from a family with a fiery temper. His shout was like thunder, frightening the Du brothers' faces to pale.
"You can't help her. It's God's will. You have to marry even if you don't want to. Du Wen, immediately notify the housekeeper and invite all the blind dates to congratulate you. I'm going to have a big wedding banquet tonight." Du Shiqing said decisively, without any hesitation in his tone.
I don't know why, but when I heard the name Chunlan, I always felt familiar, but I couldn't remember it for a while, especially because the young lady had a strong temper, which made me like her a lot. I don't know who she was infatuated with.
Du Shiqing saw that I was a little dazed, and immediately smiled and said: "Qin Jian, you don't have to panic, I have already calculated it, Mrs. Mu is very violent, and if she wants to be reincarnated, she must get rid of her violent energy first. Moreover, in three days
It's the day when hell opens the door, and she will most likely choose that day, so your friend's life is safe for these three days."
Speaking of this, Du Shiqing said to Du Wu: "Du Wu, you rush to the ** immediately, send a wedding invitation to Mrs. Mu, and tell her that I, Du Shiqing, will invite her to a wedding banquet."
"Father, the child must have run away in vain." Du Wu stood up angrily and said. Du Shiqing laughed and said: "It would be better if she ran away in vain. If she doesn't come, I will take this opportunity to settle the score with her, haha.
!”
Du Wu was possessed of divine power but a naive mind, and walked away confused.
"Okay, Qin Jian, you go down to have a rest first, and take a look at your friend by the way. Let's have a good relationship with Chunlan in the evening." Du Shiqing said, and shouted to the servant standing below: "Send Mr. Qin up.
Room to rest."
The servant took me to a clean upper room and went down. I sat cross-legged on the bed and sorted out my thoughts.
What I am most concerned about now is the safety of Caihua. As for the marriage, everything is casual. Judging from Old Man Du's attitude and momentum, it doesn't look like he is teasing me. When he comes forward, Old Man Mu will probably give him some face.
, at least more confident than me asking for someone.
As for this weird forest, which never sees the light of day, I'm afraid it's a specific space. The life of ghosts here is no different from the life of humans in the mortal world. I can't tell you the specifics, because I have no theoretical basis for Taoism or Buddhist culture. If it's cauliflower
I can definitely say seventy-seven or eighty-eight.
In my opinion, even though Old Man Du and the others have been dead for a hundred years, they are no different from human beings. At most, this dimension has gone back a hundred and eighty years.
Judging from the dress of the Duzhai villagers and Mrs. Mu, it should be that in the early Republic of China, what did the entire family of Du Gong guard? The entire family was massacred, and who massacred them? Yuan Shikai, Zhang Xun, Sun Dianying?
Also, where is the top of the mountain where I am now, why are the people of the evil sect so densely packed here, and what is their purpose?
Everything was like a mystery, hard to guess. After thinking about it for a while, I couldn't figure it out, so I simply didn't want to think about it anymore. I asked someone about where the second cover was placed, and I decided to go see the old gentleman.
The second envelope was placed next to the pharmacy. As soon as I entered the yard, I smelled the strong smell of Chinese medicine. When I walked into the pharmacy, Du Wen was slowly mixing the medicinal materials. When he saw me, he smiled slightly and said, "Brother Qin, why are you here?"
"
I nodded and said, "My master, are you okay?"
Du Wen frowned and said: "Brother Qin, to be honest, if it were two more hours at night, the old man would probably die, but don't worry, I had the best medicine, gold and stone, and was quite knowledgeable in medical science before I died. As long as the old man takes it
Take my medicine and adjust it slowly, and you will be fine."
When I heard this, I was trembling with excitement. It was so pitiful. If Mr. Feng could be safe, I would have nothing to worry about. I could safely rescue Caihua. At worst, the two brothers would die together.
Du Wen was talking to me when a maid came in with a long red box wrapped in yellow cloth and said respectfully: "Master Wen, this is the Changbai ginseng given by the master. I tell you to take good care of the old man."
Du Wen knelt down on one knee and took the box with a respectful attitude. The box suddenly read, "Given by Huang Kao himself."
Du Wen stood up and waved his hand to signal the maid to go down, then smiled happily and said: "Brother Qin, this is a treasure passed down from our ancestors. Our ancestors followed Prince Su and General Hauge to pacify Li Dingguo, and Prince Su personally awarded it to them.
I heard that the white flag was presented as tribute to Taizu, who gave it to Prince Su. Brother Qin, you are so lucky. Mr. Du was reluctant to eat it during his lifetime. You see, how kind he is to you."
