The young boss shook his head: "Not everyone knows, but I happened to have been to Lancheng the year before last, and was informed that I had to leave Lancheng at noon on the 14th. The city was closed all day on the 15th, so I knew that Lancheng was on the 15th.
The tradition of closing the city. As for why the city was closed, no one has ever known. But——"
The young boss looked around and lowered his voice and said, "You asked if anyone spent the night there on the 15th of the month, but I remembered something.
I once heard a friend of mine say something. There were a few boys in their village who also wanted to know why Lancheng was closed down every fifteenth day. So, after several people discussed it, they contacted a villager called Tiedan.
Some people made a bet that he would not dare to live in Lancheng on the night of the 15th. If he dared to do so, they would each lose one gold coin to him.
Tie Dan thought that he only had to spend two gold coins to enter Lan City, but now these three fools wanted to give him six gold coins. How could he not want it? In addition, he himself had long wanted to know the fifteenth month of Lan City.
What would happen on a full night? Therefore, he accepted the bet of the three boys.
So, he brought food and paid two gold coins to enter Lan City on the fourteenth day, and then found a place to hide and stay, preparing to spend two nights there. When he came out on the sixteenth day, he would get six of the three men's coins.
A gold coin.
As a result, when the city gate opened at the age of sixteen, the man rushed out with a pale face. As soon as he saw the three people he had bet with, he stretched out his hand to them.
When the three of them saw that they had really stayed in Lancheng on a full-moon night, they quickly took out the gold coins, but instead of giving them to him first, they asked him: "Tell me first, what did you see?"
There was fear in the man's eyes, and he trembled his lips and said: "In Orchid City on a full moon night, hundreds of ghosts walk at night." After that, he grabbed the gold coins and ran away.
Moreover, he did not run toward his home, but directly toward the road outside the village, and no one in the village saw him again after that."
When the little boss said this, he looked at Tang Nanxi: "In other places, the Night Parade of Hundred Ghosts will only appear on the fifteenth day of July, but in Lancheng, it will appear on the fifteenth night of every month. Xiao
Girl, are you afraid?"
"What, a hundred ghosts walking at night?" Tang Nanxi was really shocked: "Is it true?"
The little boss shook his head and said: "I just heard about this, and I don't know if it is true. However, judging from the fact that Lancheng is closed down every fifteenth day, it is 80% true. Otherwise, why would the city be closed down?
Huh?" He looked around again and said in a low voice: "I've told you everything I know, this gold coin?"
Yun Jiang gave him the gold coin and said, "Thank you, this gold coin is yours."
The little boss excitedly took it and saluted Yun Jiang: "Thank you, girl. I'm going to cook some rice noodles." After that, he ran inside quickly, as if he was afraid that if he took a step too slowly, Yun Jiang would ask for the gold coins back.
However, when he finished cooking and brought it out, there was no one where the two of them were sitting just now.
He got a gold coin for nothing!
Tang Nanxi asked in Yun Jiang's arms: "Shall we go back to Lancheng now?"
Yun Jiang lowered his head and glanced at Tang Nanxi: "Don't you think Lancheng is weird? Don't you want to go back and see the grand scene of the Hundred Ghosts' Night Parade?"
Tang Nanxi shuddered: "No, no, no, I don't want to see it."
Yun Jiang chuckled: "Are you really frightened by the little boss's story?"
