A strong man must be capable if he dares to walk in the wilderness.
When Bai Ying came, he couldn't return the sword in time. The strong man only turned slightly on the stairs, and Bai Ying threw himself against his chest.
When he was about to wave his sword to parry, the strong man saw Bai Ying running down the stairs.
"That little white fox." The strong man breathed a sigh of relief, but then he thought of the red ghost and couldn't help but touch the amulet on his chest.
When a traveler walks in the wilderness, he is not afraid of encountering strange animals or demons, but is afraid of ghosts and enchantments.
Ghosts are invisible and unpredictable; they are charming and difficult to detect, so he wears an evil-proof thing on his body.
Just when he touched his chest with his hand, his heart skipped a beat. It was broken and the jade pendant was gone.
"It must be that little white fox!" When the strong man was angry, "pop", someone behind him slapped him on the back of the head.
The man turned around and still saw nothing but darkness.
He was sweating profusely for a while, but the strong man was also brave, so he forced himself to steady his breathing and walked upstairs step by step.
The wooden ladder kept creaking and creaking, accompanied by the rustling sounds of his men in the lobby, which made the strong man feel uneasy.
If he had Yu Sheng's eyes, he might be able to see a female ghost with a phoenix crown floating behind him.
She has gained a lot of benefits from staying in the inn these days, her ghost power has increased sharply, and she can freely change between the tangible and the intangible.
She blew gently, sending an eerie chill to the strong man's neck.
The strong man looked around and put his head out of the second floor floor. Suddenly he saw an ugly face standing there under the moonlight streaming through the skylight, looking straight at him.
"Mother." The strong man was startled, his ankles softened, and he rolled down the stairs.
"Hehe." In a daze, the strong man heard the woman's clear and melodious smile.
"Who?" The Heavenly Master's house was close to the wooden ladder, and he had sharp ears and eyes, so he was immediately awakened.
He carried the wooden box sword and left the room. He saw the dog staying quietly under the moonlight, and gave him a faint look when he opened the door and came out.
"Gouzi, what's the sound?" Tianshi asked Gouzi, raised his sword and slowly went downstairs. After lighting the lamp and looking around, no one was seen.
He shook his head in confusion, went upstairs and scolded the dog, "You're sleeping late at night, don't make trouble."
After it became quiet again, the black-faced strong man was helped out from behind the counter by his subordinates.
"There is a ghost in this inn," said the strong man. "It has a green face and fangs, bulging eyes, a crooked mouth, drooling, and the facial features are squeezed together. It scared me to death."
The subordinate was dubious and said: "Boss, can we still find him?"
"Look for something." The strong man said, "It must be difficult to keep such a vicious thing in this inn. It's best to leave early."
At the fifth watch of the rooster's crow, when Yu Sheng stood up and put the food and wine on the table, the passersby had already woken up.
Yu Sheng was yawning, but when he saw the dark-faced man with a bruised nose and swollen eyes, he stopped immediately, "Hey, what's wrong with you?"
The dark-faced strong man smiled, revealing his mouth that was missing one of his front teeth, "I accidentally fell when I got up at night."
What he said was so leaky that I just wanted to laugh for the rest of my life, without asking any further questions.
They hurriedly finished breakfast, paid the bill, and set out on the road at dawn.
Yu Sheng weighed the three thirty dollars in his hand and said with a smile, "This money is really easy to make."
He turned around and went upstairs, stopping at the corner and asking, "What is this?" He picked up a jade pendant.
Engraved on the jade pendant is a strange figure with a human body and a bird's head, holding an oil-paper umbrella. Her clothes and belt are fluttering, swaying under the light, as if they are blown by the wind.
"Who dropped it?" Yu Sheng was confused, so he put it away for the time being, climbed up the stairs, picked up the dog, and went back to the room to catch up on his sleep.
On this day, there was not a single guest in the inn.
Yu Sheng spent the whole day helping out at Uncle Liu's house. After tasting his rice, the villagers praised Yu Sheng for making it moderately soft and hard, fragrant, glutinous and delicious.
As for the beast digging into the ancestral grave, Yu Sheng dragged the Jin Yiwei to track it for several days, but there was still no trace. Maybe he really didn't dare to come.
The funeral should not be too sad. I have been busy for four days in a row, and on the fifth day of the funeral, I was even busier. I had already forgotten about my promise to Zhou Jiuzhang.
Zhou Jiuzhang remembered, counting the days on his fingers.
"There are five days left." When Zhou Jiuzhang left the Chu Mansion, he turned back and said to Chu Ci.
Bu Ju smiled and said, "This is already the third time. It makes me want to taste the delicious food that you will never forget."
Zhou Jiuzhang said proudly: "It was the city lord who specially entertained our father and son, but you couldn't bear to accept it. This time, brother is willing to take you to have a try."
"Thank you very much." Bu Ju playfully handed over his hand.
At this time, a servant in green clothes came towards them and bowed: "Young Master Chu, Mr. Bu, Mr. Zhou, I am from the Zhuang Mansion."
Zhou Jiuzhang frowned and was about to speak angrily when he was stopped by Chu Ci. He asked with a smile: "What's the matter?"
The servant handed over an invitation and said: "My young master recently got a treasure, and I specially invite the three young masters to appreciate it at Xunweizhai in three days."
"Appraisal of treasures?" The three of them looked at each other. Chu Ci took the invitation and said, "I understand."
The servant then straightened up, took three steps back, turned around and left slowly.
Bu Ju said: "Treasure appraisal, could it be the porcelain vase I saw at the inn last time?"
"It must be." Zhou Jiuzhang grinned from ear to ear, "That boy from the Cai family has got a baby. He will definitely give it to Zhuangzi if he can't keep it warm."
"Now there's something good to watch." Bu Ju said with a smile.
Paper money was flying in the air, the coffin slowly lowered, and with a handful of earth covering it, another once-living life left the world.
Ah Huang was held tightly by his sixth uncle, sobbing incessantly, making the air more desolate and desolate.
Yu Sheng felt a little sad. He looked around and saw the sword pouch on the archway. He felt certain in his heart and realized that immortality was not far away.
When they returned, Ah Huang lay down in front of the grave and refused to go back. In the end, everyone forced him back.
After the funeral, the town became quiet.
When Yu Sheng was helping Uncle Six pack up and return the tables and chairs borrowed from each family, he listened to Baozi and the others lying on the jujube tree complaining about boredom.
They picked green jujubes and gnawed them. When Yu Sheng was frightened, they jumped down from the tree and ran away like monkeys.
In the evening, Yu Sheng, Tianshi, and Cao'er set out a jar of wine and a portion of green vegetables, and sat at a table outside the inn, chatting and enjoying the cool weather.
The big man from Jinyiwei also sat over after a while. His name was Fu Nan.
"It's hard to get rich, it's hard to get rich, it's hard to get rich, hey, this name is really good." Yu Sheng teased the big man in Jinyiwei.
Fu Nan sneered, "Yu Sheng, Yu Sheng, Yu Sheng, your name isn't that good either."
They both looked at the Heavenly Master.
Yu Sheng said: "By the way, I've been calling Heavenly Master all day long, but you haven't told me your name yet?"
The Heavenly Master said: "I am proud to be a Heavenly Master, so you can just call me Heavenly Master."
"How can that be done?" Yu Sheng said, "As soon as a guest enters the inn and calls the waiter, and then asks his name is Tianshi, isn't this a sign of tarnishing the 'Tianshi' sign?"
"Yes, yes." Yu Sheng, who is rare in wealth and hardship, agreed.
Cao'er looked at Tianshi suspiciously, "You can't say your name, right?"
"How could it be?" The Heavenly Master was a little excited. Seeing that he couldn't shirk it, he said, "My name is Gao Xing."
For the rest of his life, he asked, "What's your last name?"
"Surname Bai."
"My surname is Bai, my given name is Gao Xing." The big man from Jin Yiwei thought about it and said, "It's a good name, what's so hard to say about it?"
"Pfft", Yu Sheng and Cao'er finally couldn't hold it any longer.
"You must have done it on purpose." Tianshi bit down and looked at him fiercely.
Fu Nan scratched the back of his head and muttered: "Bai, happy, Bai happy? Bai happy!"
"Haha, Bai is happy." Fu Nan laughed and leaned forward and back, making Tianshi couldn't help but shake his head and laugh.
