Chapter 33: Serve hot

Views:

Xu Qinglang was vomiting so hard that he almost vomited bile.

Zhou Ze shook his head slightly. This kid is still too young. He must have watched few ghost movies when he was young. This kind of encountering ghosts in the wild and eating with ghosts is actually the most classic scene.

The delicacies originally placed on the plate were actually maggots, earthworms, cockroaches, ants, etc.

This joke has been overused.

Even if he didn't have an eating disorder, Zhou Ze wouldn't move a chopstick.

Do you still expect the ghosts here to go out to buy food every day and build a stove to cook for you

Zhou Ze remembered a case in the past where a man went to visit a friend, and the friend said that his wife was out traveling, so he had to entertain him alone. He stayed at this friend's house for a week. The only drawback was that there were too few vegetarian dishes in this friend's house, only meat, but the broth was really delicious.

After he said goodbye to his friend and came out, he met his neighbor, who said that his friend had not gone out for almost a month and had locked himself up at home all day.

The man vomited immediately after hearing this.

Zhou Ze subconsciously picked up the drink in front of him, then put it down.

I almost forgot.

It's passerby urine.

"My husband, you are not feeling well, so please go down and rest first." The ghost lady looked at the maid in black skirt beside her.

The maid nodded and came over to support Xu Qinglang.

Xu Qinglang directly pushed away the maid's support, sat up straight, and said:

"Just tell me what you want to do. I don't want to play any more tricks."

Well, Xu Qinglang was angry.

It was completely angry.

The ghost lady stood up and walked in front of Zhou Ze. Zhou Ze could clearly smell the fragrance emanating from her. Her graceful figure and voluptuous figure made people imagine a lot.

Zhou Ze breathed a sigh of relief.

I have been with Xu Qinglang for a long time, but I am still normal.

However, Zhou Ze did not have the courage to lift the ghost lady’s red veil.

It is natural for a beautiful woman to become a withered skeleton.

From the layout and decoration here, it is clear that this ghost lady has been dead for a long time. If you lift her veil and she is in a good mood, she might show you her face when she was alive;

If you are unlucky, your eyes will be blinded by the skull face full of maggots.

Zhou Ze remembered reading a report in his previous life that it was very popular for husbands to accompany their wives into the delivery room at that time;

Many young people think that this can make the husband understand the dedication and greatness of his wife. Later, a Japanese husband became depressed after accompanying his wife in childbirth. He developed a psychological trauma and could no longer lead a normal life as a couple. In the end, he had to choose to divorce.

At this moment, Zhou Ze knew clearly that he had always had a neighbor who was more beautiful than a woman. If he was frightened by the face of this ghost lady again, his orientation might really go to an unpredictable abyss.

In his past and present lives, it seems that he has never really gotten what he wanted with women. Zhou Ze doesn't want to skip ahead and play the advanced game in this life.

"Sir, I asked you to come here instead of visiting you. It's not that I am rude or deliberately neglecting you. It's just that I really have no other way to leave this place."

The ghost lady cried to Zhou Ze.

"As for this gentleman, the reason why we invited him here is because more than ten years ago, when he was just a child, he once passed by here and left a joke. He told his companions at that time that if the female ghost was really like Wang Zuxian in the movie, he would be willing to marry her home."

Xu Qinglang opened his mouth wide when he heard this.

He himself had forgotten about this. How could this happen

Zhou Ze glanced at Xu Qinglang, meaning: I didn't realize that you look so effeminate, but you mature so precociously.

"What's the matter, specifically?"

Zhou Ze didn’t say directly that you are very naughty and I will take you back to hell.

Little Loli once said that he was the most shrewd person she had ever met.

indeed,

Zhou Ze now has a clear idea in his mind. Without benefits, performance, or tasks, there is really no need for him to sacrifice himself for the prosperity of Hell.

"Don't worry, sir. I will leave today and my soul will return to the netherworld." Madam Ghost smiled and continued, "My surname is Bai. I am the daughter of a scholarly family during the Daoguang reign. Unfortunately, my fate was full of misfortunes. I died on the eve of my wedding and was buried here. It has been nearly two hundred years since then.

Although I am a ghost, I have never done anything evil. I have protected my neighbors and made them live and work in peace. Mr. Shao'an once wrote a plaque for me. Since then, I have a temple body and can receive incense.

However, in the past sixty years, the temple has fallen into disrepair and can no longer be found. Today, no one knows that there was such a temple here. "

"Who is Mr. Su'an?" Xu Qinglang asked with a blink.

"Zhang Jian." Zhou Ze replied.

"Oh, him." Xu Qinglang understood now.

Zhang Jian was a well-known figure in the late Qing Dynasty. He was the one who drafted the abdication edict of the Qing emperor. He was the top scholar in the late Qing Dynasty and also a national entrepreneur.

The Yin Temple mentioned by the ghost lady does not refer to a messy place, but a temple that is not recognized by the court etiquette and laws, and is an illegal temple for worshiping gods.

"Then you are quite awesome." Xu Qinglang recovered from the vomiting just now. After the ghost lady said that she invited him here just because of a joke she made when she was a child, he relaxed. It was good that she was not forcing him to be her husband.

He has been practicing for two hundred years and has had a temple built for him, receiving incense and offerings. This should have allowed him to transcend the level of a ghost, right

"Now, my cultivation is complete and I am about to descend into the netherworld. However, there is one thing I must not ignore."

Madam Ghost bowed to Zhou Ze and pleaded:

"My body has not decayed for two hundred years due to the burial conditions. It is still alive. My soul is about to enter the netherworld, but I cannot take my body with me.

Moreover, over the past two hundred years, my flesh body has become evil because of my soul. I don't want to leave my flesh body behind after my soul passes away. If something unexpected happens and it wakes up, it will do something harmful to the world. Therefore, I beg you to help me."

"I want to, how can I help you?"

Zhou Ze rubbed his hands. Since this ghost lady was going to go to hell herself, that was the best thing. This was turning herself in.

No, it's not like turning oneself in. In fact, it's more like the ancient rebels who, after growing to a certain size, accepted the imperial amnesty and cleansed their identities and obtained official positions.

But no matter what, don't confront yourself head-on.

"I would like to ask the officials to help look after my body until the next Cold Clothes Festival night, when you can burn it with bamboo or wood." said the ghost lady.

"Help to look after it?" Zhou Ze thought about it and nodded.

"Has the officer agreed to my request?" Madam Ghost confirmed, "I would like to thank you, officer."

“You’re welcome.”

Zhou Ze subconsciously picked up the wine glass again.

Um,

Put it down again.

"Then I'll take my leave." The ghost lady's figure began to slowly disappear, and she left very decisively.

Zhou Ze pursed his lips, and the next moment, he found that the surrounding scenes had all disappeared, and he and Xu Qinglang were sitting on two stone pillars.

The banquets around them disappeared without a trace, and all that was left was jagged rocks and dense weeds.

Xu Qinglang lit a cigarette, feeling a little melancholy.

"Are you disappointed that you didn't see what your wife looks like?" Zhou Ze asked.

"Why don't you lift the veil and see for yourself?" Xu Qinglang snorted coldly.

A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. Zhou Ze had taken advantage of him countless times tonight, and Xu Qinglang had memorized all of them in his little notebook.

"Your wife, how can I dare to cross your path?" Zhou Ze looked around and stomped his shoes on the ground. "Is the body of Mrs. Bai under this land?"

"That should be it." Xu Qinglang was also a little uncertain, but soon, his eyes spotted two rusty shovels lying in the grass in front of him, "That should be it, the shovels are ready for us."

Zhou Ze came over, and he and Xu Qinglang each took a shovel. There was nothing else to say, so they started digging!

The two men dug together until the early morning, sweating profusely, and finally touched something hard underneath. After clearing away the dust on top, they could see clearly that it was a mahogany coffin.

It took another half an hour for the two of them to completely clean out the coffin.

"Let's open the coffin," Zhou Ze said. "It's almost dawn, so let's finish it quickly. Otherwise, if someone sees us and calls the police, they'll think we're tomb robbers."

"Come on." Xu Qinglang wiped his sweat, "I feel sick."

"Didn't she say her body wasn't rotten?"

“Who knows whether it’s true or not?”

Zhou Ze shook his head. There was nothing he could do. This was something he had promised to do. Xu Qinglang was only helping out out of friendship. If he didn't want to do something, he had to do it himself.

After prying open the nails of the coffin, Zhou Ze stood at the side and pulled hard, and the coffin lid was opened. Then, Zhou Ze took out his mobile phone and turned on the flashlight to shine downwards.

"Hehe... it's really pretty."

Xu Qinglang also came over. Indeed, the woman lying in the coffin was wearing a white dress, with long hair draped over her shoulders. She had a dignified and beautiful face, and there was not a single problem with her body. She looked like she was sleeping.

"She is your wife, why don't you take advantage of her while she's hot..."

Xu Qinglang pushed Zhou Ze hard, "What nonsense are you talking about? Hurry up and carry him back home."

This time, Xu Qinglang was very proactive. He jumped down and picked up the female corpse.

But as soon as he lifted the body off the ground, Xu Qinglang's expression changed immediately. He immediately put the female corpse down and then kept rubbing his hands.

"Hiss... So cold, bone-chillingly cold. This corpse has such a strong evil spirit, it's clearly about to turn into a zombie. That Mrs. Bai must not have told the whole truth.

She must have been deliberately nourishing her own body for the past two hundred years out of a woman's natural love of beauty.

Now that I have completed my merits and am ready to leave, I have left behind such a big trouble."

Zhou Ze went down personally and picked up the female corpse. He immediately felt the chill that seemed to stimulate the soul.

But in the next moment, Zhou Ze found that his nails began to grow longer, and the coolness, which was the evil spirit that Xu Qinglang had mentioned before, began to actively flow into Zhou Ze's nails.

For a time,

The tingling and numb feeling made Zhou Ze's soul tremble completely. It seemed like a kind of nourishment.

“Hu… Um… Hiss… Woo…”

Xu Qinglang, who was still checking his palms to see if he had frostbite, heard Zhou Ze's voice and pointed at Zhou Ze with a look of shock on his face:

"You beast,

You actually took advantage of the heat!"
