Chapter 58 A poignant love story full of loopholes
Amid everyone's curious gazes, Fang Ming walked into the bathroom, and the next moment he took out a basin of water and placed it on the table.
"Fang Ming, what are you bringing a basin of water over for?" Hua Mingming couldn't help but asked curiously.
"Verify my guess."
Fang Ming smiled mysteriously without explaining too much. The next moment he picked up the jade Ruyi and threw it directly into the water.
flutter!
Yu Ruyi fell into the water and splashed a few water splashes. Before Hua Borong and others could react, they saw bubbles rising from the water in the basin, and these bubbles came from
Jade Ruyi.
"No, don't pinch me, don't pinch me!"
Zhang Qi on the side suddenly screamed, with a look of fear on his face, as if he had seen the female ghost in red, and his actions made other people's hair stand on end. After passing by, Zhang Qi told his story.
After passing by, Hua Borong and others shuddered at the thought of a female ghost in red appearing here.
"I can't tolerate you causing trouble here."
Fang Ming snorted coldly, scooped up Jade Ruyi in the basin, grabbed a handful of incense ashes from the golden incense burner with his right hand, and smeared it directly on Yu Ruyi's body.
When Fang Ming finished this action, Zhang Qi's scream disappeared, and was replaced by an extremely pale face, looking at Fang Ming, "Boss Fang, I just saw the female ghost in red again."
"I know, I have sealed this Yu Ruyi now, temporarily isolating the connection between this resentful evil spirit and you, but it is only temporary."
The incense ash in the incense burner is what Fang Ming has burned out in the past few days. The incense ash has the function of driving away evil spirits. Of course, the already formed evil spirits like Zhang Qi cannot be driven away by this incense ash.
It can only be temporarily sealed.
"It seems that my guess is correct. The owner of this jade Ruyi should be afraid of water, or to be more precise, he should have died in the water."
The test in front of him verified his judgment. When the jade Ruyi was put into the water, the resentment came out again. This was a reflection. Although the resentment was not a ghost, the source of the resentment still came from the jade Ruyi.
The original owner, so the principle is the same.
"Let me tell you a story now. This story happened during the Tang Dynasty..."
Fang Ming looked at Yu Ruyi in front of him and began to tell his guess in a low voice.
More than 1,200 years ago, a young man from a poor family successfully passed the exam and entered the officialdom with his talent.
However, in that era, it was too difficult for a child from a poor family to climb up, and the same was true for this man. The only way to climb up in that era was to cling to a wealthy family, and the best way to establish a relationship with a wealthy family was to
marriage.
The man eventually married a daughter of a wealthy family in order to get promoted. However, this man had a childhood sweetheart when he was young, but they were separated in two places for some reasons, but later the two finally got together.
However, how could the daughter of a wealthy family allow a young man to take a concubine? Even if it were a concubine, it would only be designated by the daughter. How could a woman foolishly let her husband's childhood sweetheart in?
On one side is his childhood sweetheart, on the other is glory and wealth. The man is caught in a dilemma, and the woman is so infatuated that she would rather not have a status in order to be with the young man. The two secretly make an appointment to tell each other how happy they are.
However, there is no airtight wall in this world, and the secret date between the two was eventually discovered by the man's wife. When the young man went out to perform official duties, the man's wife caught the woman with his men.
Needless to say, what happened to a woman who was caught having an affair with a married man in that era? She was immersed in a pig cage and sunk to the bottom of the water. It is pitiful for such a beautiful woman to sink to the bottom of the water forever and become that lonely soul.
Wild ghost.
When a man comes back and finds out that the woman he loves is dead, he is naturally devastated. At this moment, he realizes that all the glory, wealth, fame and wealth are not worth spending time with the woman he loves.
However, after all, they were his married couple here. They were kind to each other for a hundred days. Facing his wife, he could not retaliate. He was frustrated and chose to leave this home.
After resigning from his official position and leaving home, the man only carried a few items with him, and among them was a jade pendant and a jade ruyi, which were tokens of love between him and the woman.
Even if we can't be in love while alive, let's stay together after death.
The man dug a grave for himself. After he died and joined the army as a military official, he was supposed to join the clan and enjoy a high-standard burial, but he knew he couldn't because the woman he loved was not allowed to lie in that grave.
Only this grave belongs to him and her.
There was nothing in the tomb, only two coffins, one belonged to him and one belonged to her. Her body had already rotted at the bottom of the river after he came back. Not even the bones could be found. The only thing left was a piece of her body.
Set of clothes.
The man put the woman's clothes into the coffin, but he couldn't bear to put the jade Ruyi in it, because every time he saw Yu Ruyi, it was like seeing his childhood sweetheart.
People of that era believed that people have souls after death. As long as there are things close to the body during life, the souls will come back. The man kept this jade Ruyi in the hope that the woman's soul would come back one day.
However, until the day when the man grew old, the woman's soul still could not come back. In desperation, the man chose to seal the tomb...
Fang Ming has finished telling his story, which is full of loopholes. However, what he wants to do is not to tell the story, but to express his judgment.
He didn't know the details of that year, but the woman died in the water, there was no body, and the tomb of an official who joined the army to record affairs was so shabby after his death. These details formed the story of Fang Ming.
Maybe there are many things in this story that cannot be explained clearly or even explained, and it is even possible that the real thing is completely different from this story, but for Fang Ming, this is enough.
In short, this is a very bloody ancient love story. Fang Ming is not an author or a novelist, so he cannot conceive this story without any loopholes in such a short time. This job is left to those novelists.
Hua Borong and others looked at each other because they understood what Fang Ming meant. This jade Ruyi and the pair of jade pendants were tokens of love between a man and a woman in the tomb.
"What is certain is that the woman definitely died violently. Otherwise, the resentment would not be so strong. If you want to eliminate this resentment, there is only one way to do it."
Fang Ming looked at Zhang Qi, and after seeing Zhang Qi's expectant eyes, he said: "Find the male corpse, and then bury the male corpse with Yu Ruyi."
"This is impossible!"
Before Zhang Qi could answer, Liu Zhenguo spoke first. As a former archaeologist and now a museum director, he knew the process of archaeological work very well.
Generally, after a corpse is found in a tomb, after taking pictures and sampling, the corpse will be numbered and preserved. Of course, it will also be sent to some specialized institutions for human biological research.
"This is the only way. If you can find the male corpse, then I will add another two hundred thousand and I can help you solve the problem of the evil spirit. Otherwise, even I can't do anything."
Fang Ming didn't care about Liu Zhenguo's attitude. He had already told Zhang Qi that it was Zhang Qi's own choice whether he could survive.
"You only have three days. If it exceeds three days, the evil spirit will break out of the seal, and even I won't be able to help you by then."
Zhang Qi was silent. He didn't want to die, but he also knew how difficult it was to take out the corpses that had been stored in the warehouse. This was not something he could do alone.
"I don't think it's better than this. Mr. Zhang, go back and think about it carefully. If there is really no other way, we can discuss whether there are other ways."
Hua Borong spoke. At this time, he was the only one who came out to smooth things over. He understood what Fang Ming meant. If Zhang Qi wanted to survive, he must bring the body, and Zhang Qi would definitely not be able to bring the body. This matter is
It's up to the teachers and students to discuss it themselves.
In any case, Zhang Qi has been with Liu Zhenguo for decades. Faced with threats to his life, can Liu Zhenguo really remain indifferent?
"Thank you, Boss Fang, for clearing up the confusion this time."
Liu Zhenguo stood up. He also knew that there was no point in staying any longer. This experience had overturned his knowledge for so many years. There were some things that he had not fully digested until now.
Zhang Qi wanted to step forward to help Liu Zhenguo, but Liu Zhenguo pushed him away. In the end, he had to lower his head and follow Liu Zhenguo's footsteps out of the store.
Liu Zhenguo and Zhang Qi left, and Hua Borong was responsible for seeing them off. Hua Mingming did not follow them this time but looked at Fang Ming and asked seriously: "Fang Ming, if the body is taken out, Zhang Qi will really
Is there any help?”
After these few experiences, some of Hua Mingming's inner perseverance was also shattered. Now he has to believe some of what his old man said. There are some things in the world that he has never seen, but that doesn't mean
Doesn't exist. Some things that have been circulated among the people in China for thousands of years are not created out of thin air.
