Chapter 636: There Are No Ghosts on Coffin Mountain
Chapter 636 There are no ghosts on Coffin Mountain
Wei Zi glanced at him, smiled and said to Changsheng: "Come, sit here. What did you win?"
"Egg fighting, I won all their eggs!" Chang Sheng sat down and said proudly.
Putting a bunch of eggs on the table, he reached out and grabbed a handful of cherries and said politely: "Sister Wei, you guys eat it. The cherries are very sweet, and the loquats are also very sweet. They are delicious!"
"Heh." Feng Danyuan was speechless. Every teacher must have a disciple.
Wei Zi peeled off a loquat and nodded: "Yeah, it's very sweet."
Feng Danyuan started to talk about business: "How is the situation in Coffin Mountain going?"
What his subordinates reported to him was "no progress", but this was only superficial. I'm afraid only these two masters and disciples knew about some things.
Chang Sheng paused for a moment and silently changed from grabbing a large handful of cherries to picking up a small bunch.
Taoist Master Baopu calmly took a sip of tea and said, "No."
Feng Danyuan said coldly: "So you just broke the jar and just lay down and settled the matter?"
Chang Sheng shook his hand and instinctively moved his butt towards Wei Zi.
Wei Zi sighed and said to Changsheng: "How about you go outside and play for a while? There are some snacks on the carriage, let Sister Su Nian bring them to you."
Changsheng didn't leave though, he felt that Wei Zi treated him so well and he couldn't let her down.
"Sister Wei, actually we are not here to eat or drink." He whispered to Wei Zi: "In the first few days, we were looking for clues in Coffin Mountain, but after searching, we found that it was strange that there were no ghosts there.
I didn't find anything else. The master said to try another method and ask around, you can always find out something..."
After that, he added solemnly: "We are just eating and drinking."
Feng Danyuan did not pay attention to this point and asked directly: "Didn't you see ghosts in Coffin Mountain?"
Changsheng nodded: "Yes, there is not one, which is very strange."
Feng Danyuan frowned slightly. After a hundred years, he was buried in peace. The custom in the Jiangnan area is to bury the dead in the mountains. Coffin Mountain is such a big mountain. It makes no sense that not even a ghost can be seen.
Wei Zi was also confused. She asked Taoist Master Baopu: "Don't the people around here bury their families in Coffin Mountain?"
Taoist Master Baopu shook his head: "According to the people here, ancestral rules prohibit people from being buried in Coffin Mountain." After a pause, he added: "Unknown foreigners who died of sudden illness are excluded.
"
At this time, even Wei Zi frowned.
"Why aren't you allowed to be buried in Coffin Mountain?" Feng Danyuan asked.
Taoist Master Baopu pointed to the Mingqian Longjing on the table: "I prepared these refreshments today to answer this question. But after all, it happened too long ago, so there may not be an answer."
Then he said: "The second question you want to ask is, since there are foreigners buried, why are there no ghosts? I don't know, but maybe if the previous question is solved, the second question will be easily solved. Wait,
People are coming soon."
Feng Danyuan was silent for a while and said to Feng Yu: "Go and get a thousand taels of silver notes."
Feng Yu took the money as instructed and handed it to Feng Danyuan respectfully.
Feng Danyuan turned around and placed a stack of banknotes in front of Taoist Master Baopu: "Life in the countryside is hard, Taoist Master, don't wrong yourself."
Wei Zi couldn't help laughing, she picked up the teacup and drank tea to hide her smile.
Taoist Master Baopu glanced at the banknote and said, "Prince Chen is so kind, I am very grateful." He stretched out his hand and put the banknote into his arms unceremoniously.
"Master, I want to buy a new pair of shoes." Changsheng looked at Taoist Master Baopu longingly.
"Let's go shopping tomorrow." Taoist priest Baopu took a sip of tea and said, "Buy two pairs."
"Master, you are so kind!" Changsheng smiled so hard that he couldn't even open his eyes.
