In broad daylight, you generally don't see ghosts.
Because there is a sun during the day, the yang energy is very strong, and ghosts and ghosts usually hide in the shadows in the dark, and only come out to wander after the sun goes down.
If you really encounter something unclean or strange things during the day, it must have happened in a house or a building, because there are always parts of those places that cannot be exposed to the sun, such as a house that has not been lived for a long time. , If you want to go in, you must knock on the door first, and then invite the door god again.
But now Su Jinzhi is seeing a ghost in the daytime.
Not everyone can see ghosts. There is a saying that if someone encounters something unclean, either his luck is low and he has been very unlucky recently; or he is haunted by ghosts and is here to claim his life.
Su Jinzhi's ability to see ghosts has something to do with his yin and yang eyes.
But now that he saw that the Xie family's feet were covered with pale and terrifying hands, he couldn't help but began to reiterate how serious the burning of the Xie family's ancestral grave was. He originally thought that as long as he survived last night, he would be fine, but now he is not sure.
Su Jinzhi swallowed the porridge fed by Xie Lincheng, and asked him, "Do you have any enemies?" He suspected that someone was using the hands of Xie's family to deal with Xie Lincheng, after all, burning ancestral graves was really too damaging.
"I have many enemies." Xie Lincheng didn't pay much attention to Su Jinzhi's question, and lowered his head to lick away the water on his lips. The young man's lips were hot and soft, Xie Lincheng didn't want to leave as soon as he touched them, he bit the young man's lower lip lightly.
Su Jinzhi let him kiss him for a while, and when he saw that the man was going too far, he avoided his lips, frowned and said, "I'm asking you seriously." Why is Xie Lincheng doing this? There are also a group of paper ghosts watching!
Unexpectedly, Xie Lincheng was more innocent than him, so he grabbed his hand and kissed on his fingertips: "Third Master, Xie also answered seriously."
Su Jinzhi turned around and thought about it, Xie Lincheng's body is full of bloody aura, he is still a marshal, and his blood debt will definitely not be less. He can sit in this position today and offend countless people, and his enemies are even more unknown. It's just that due to Xie Lincheng's power, he dared not confront him openly, so it's not surprising that he used some tricks secretly.
Xie Lincheng had been fine before, probably because of the evil spirit of blood on his body, and the only way to get rid of this evil spirit was to find his own family members to deal with them. The best way is to burn the graves of the ancestors.
If the old people don't live well in the ground, they can't live in peace, and their shelters are burned down, and they become lonely ghosts. After the resentment has accumulated to a certain extent, it will be difficult to resolve it.
Su Jinzhi was sure that if he hadn't been here to help Xie Lincheng last night, he might have been caught too. Like the group of Xie's family members below, he had a pair of blue and white dead hands on his ankles.
"What's wrong?" Seeing Su Jinzhi frowning, Xie Lincheng asked him.
"I'll ask someone to investigate." Su Jinzhi then told Xie Lincheng what he thought in his heart, and Xie Lincheng's expression became serious when he heard it, "Are you still talking about me, did you step on the dregs of medicine when you came to Xie's house last time?" , did you get sick like that?"
Su Jin was taken aback, and smiled nonchalantly: "I'm ready."
Xie Lincheng did not speak, looked at the blue and black eyes of the young man, raised his hand to stroke his cheek lightly, and said in a low voice after a long while: "I will treat you well."
"En." Su Jinzhi responded lightly, and before Xie Lincheng urged him, he picked up the boiled medicine and drank it.
However, seeing that he was so cute and calm, Xie Lincheng couldn't feel happy at all. Why didn't the third master react at all after hearing his confession? Su Jinzhi really didn't have any special reaction, Xie Lincheng didn't have any love talk skills in this world, how could he react
Marshal Xie is uncomfortable, he just wants everyone to feel uncomfortable with him.
But the Xie family was very quiet today, no one came out to touch Marshal Xie's brow, because everyone was frightened last night, so they all rested in the house to catch up on sleep.
Xie Lincheng saw that there was no one to vent his anger on him, so he went to sleep with Su Jinzhi in his arms.
Su Jinzhi stayed at Xie's house for the second night, so he was worried about Xie Lincheng. Because of the ghosts during the day, he wasn't sure that nothing would happen tonight, so he got up after the sun went down, kowtowed to the tablets of the Xie family ancestors with Xie Lincheng, and stacked some ingots and paper money burn.
But tonight went smoothly, the ingots and paper money were quickly burned out, the candles were burning well, and nothing strange happened.
He slept too much during the day, but couldn't sleep at night. Xie Lincheng looked at the young man sitting next to him with downcast eyes and concentrated on folding Ming ingots. The warm light shone on the young man's fair skin, which made him as gentle as jade, so he couldn't help but feel a little moved, and quietly sat beside the young man, wrapping his arms around his waist.
The waist is also very thin!
Xie Lincheng put his arms around the young man's flexible waist, feeling that one hand was not enough, so he put the other on it.
Su Jinzhi was a little amused, stopped what he was doing, and handed a piece of Mingyin paper to Xie Lincheng: "Marshal Xie, if you are in a hurry, why don't you fold the ingots for me."
Xie Lincheng frowned and stared at the piece of paper, and was about to reach out to pick it up reluctantly, when he heard the second wife's hysterical yelling from outside——
"Help!"
"Help! There is a ghost!"
The cry was so shrill that Su Jinzhi shuddered immediately.
Soon, the lights in Xie's house were turned on, and the noisy voices of the servants rang out. Xie Lincheng's soldiers rushed over and knocked outside the gate of Xie Lincheng: "Commander, are you alright?"
Now Su Jinzhi and Xie Lincheng couldn't stay in the house anymore, they could only open the door and go out to have a look. When going out, Xie Lincheng didn't forget to put a coat on Su Jinzhi's body to keep out the wind, and after wrapping the young man up tightly, he asked the soldiers: "I'm fine, what's going on outside?"
"Outside, outside..." The soldier's face was pale, and he couldn't speak clearly.
The second lady's miserable screams continued, Xie Lincheng saw this, and walked outside directly past the soldiers.
Almost everyone in the Xie family was woken up, so the hall was extremely bright, candles were lit, and there were a group of strong guards standing aside holding torches and sticks, watching in horror. The outer courtyard, but they all just watched from a distance, no one dared to step forward.
Su Jinzhi and Xie Lincheng probed out to have a look, only to know why they reacted this way. Not to mention this group of servants who have never seen the big world, even Su Jinzhi couldn't help but feel his legs go weak—
The second wife was carried out with her bed.
Being ghosted by a group of paper people.
Those paper ghosts were all wearing red shrouds, and there were two blushes on their faces. They smiled strangely and made "hee hee hee" laughter from time to time, bouncing and lifting the second lady. and ran out the door with her bed.
Su Jinzhi loves the paper ghost the most, because he himself was carried over a sedan chair by a paper doll.
If Xie Lincheng hadn't appeared suddenly that day, Su Jinzhi would not have known where he would be carried. Xie Lincheng obviously remembered what happened that day, and immediately raised his hand to hold him.
"Help!" The second lady was still yelling, but no one in the entire Xie family dared to step forward.
Moreover, the state of the second lady seemed to be a little bit wrong, she didn't seem to see that the servants of the Xie family were there at all, and the shouts she made came from instinct. When everyone took a closer look, they found out why.
In addition to the four paper ghosts who carried the second lady away, there was also a paper figure lying behind the second lady. The paper figure covered the eyes of the second lady with soft hands that seemed to be coated with a layer of wax, so what did the second lady do? Can't see it either.
The paper figurine seemed to be aware of their gaze, and turned back to them with a cunning smile. A few timid maids screamed and collapsed.
Except for the second wife, the rest of the Xie family were also carried out by the paper people one after another. Some people woke up and shouted hysterically like Mrs. Xie; He carried it out, and walked towards the gate of Xie's house, not to mention how spectacular the scene was, even Xie Lincheng was stunned in place.
So before dawn on the second day, the news of the Xie family's haunting spread throughout Qingzhen.
Many of the slaves who saw the ghost last night found the housekeeper of the Xie family to resign after dawn. They didn't even want this month's monthly silver, so they hoped to leave the Xie family. The housekeeper also wanted to leave the Xie family, but he was a slave of the Xie family who had signed a death contract, and he could not leave without the master's permission. What's more, there are soldiers from Xie Lincheng.
Although the soldiers were also afraid, they were much calmer than the slaves. After all, the soldiers who followed Xie Lincheng this time belonged to his personal guards. Of course, they were loyal. They had seen blood on the battlefield, and their mental quality was very high. Besides, they also saw it last night, those ghosts thanked their family members, they were fine, and their marshal was fine, so the next day they still had time to get together to gossip about last night.
When Su's mother heard about this, she rushed to Xie's house early the next morning to take Su Jinzhi back to Su's house.
However, when she arrived at Xie's house, she happened to bump into Su Jinzhi and Xie Lincheng sitting in the hall having breakfast together. There was only a bowl of vegetarian porridge in front of Xie Lincheng, and there were a few green leaves floating in the porridge, but her son's porridge bowl had a lot of boiled lean meat and dried meat floss, which could be eaten from a distance. Smell the aroma.
"Thank you, Marshal Xie?" Mother Su looked at Xie Lincheng incredulously, "Are you alright?"
"Mrs. Su." Xie Lincheng immediately raised his hand to ask the servants to give her a seat when he saw Mother Su coming, "Has Mrs. Su eaten breakfast? Do you want to eat some with the third master?"
"No, no, I've already eaten." Su's mother quickly waved her hand and refused. She sat next to Su Jinzhi, carefully looked at her son's face, and found that her son's eyes looked good except for some dark spots from not sleeping well.
She knew that Su Jinzhi was resting at Xie's house recently, saying that he was going to cure the ghosts of Marshal Xie, but she heard that Xie's family was carried away by paper ghosts this morning. She thought that Xie Lincheng was also carried away by the ghosts. , but did not think that others were still there.
But Xie Lincheng quickly explained to Su's mother: "Thanks to the third master, Xie is safe and sound."
"It's fine, it's fine." Su's mother smiled, and glanced at Su Jinzhi. She came to Xie's house today because she wanted to take Su Jinzhi back. After all, Xie's house was recently haunted by ghosts, she was afraid that her son would also be stained with something unclean.
Su Jinzhi met Su's mother's eyes and knew what she was thinking, so he pulled her aside and whispered: "Mother, I want to stay at Xie's house for a few more days."
"Why?" Mother Su was very puzzled.
"Marshal Xie's affairs are not over yet, I have to stay and cure his ghost."
"But... their Xie family doesn't have any graveyard soil." His son must collect the graveyard soil for the treatment of ghosts, but the Xie family did not pay Su Jinzhi. Su's mother didn't understand why his son wanted to help so hard. Xie Lincheng.
Su Jinzhi was silent for a while, and finally said deeply: "Because, I want to quit the soil."
Su Mu was stunned for a moment.
Su Jinzhi continued: "Mom, I won't collect graveyard soil as a reward in the future, and I may help some people cure ghosts for free to accumulate evil for our family. Anyway, our family is not short of money. My brother and father will support me, right?" ?”
"Yes, yes, Tang'er, if you can think about it, it's good." Ordinary people would be angry if they let their elder brothers and fathers support them to eat rice, but Su's mother was very happy when Su Jinzhi said that. What about their family? It hurts to be born, because Su Jinzhi's body is weak, before his brother and father hoped that he would stay at home and recuperate well, and they didn't want him to go out to treat people and collect such sinister things as grave mounds.
Su's mother and Su's father persuaded Su Jinzhi many times before and he refused to listen, but in the end they could only acquiesce. Now that Su Jinzhi wants to open up, Su's mother is not to mention how happy she is: "Your father will be very happy when he finds out."
"By the way, mother, you can send someone to bring over the remaining soil in my house later." Su Jinzhi learned from the pain and decided to destroy the box of soil. The grave soil should not be thrown around casually, otherwise it will be accidentally touched by others. If he got involved and caused an accident, the karmic debt would be on his head, so Su Jinzhi still planned to take it over and destroy it himself.
"Okay." Mother Su nodded, talked to Su Jinzhi again, and left.
"You really want to quit the soil?" No. 1 suddenly made Su Jin jump.
"En." Su Jinzhi responded.
"Loving to eat graveyard soil has almost become the instinct of this body." No. 1 said, "It's not so easy for you to resist your instinct."
"Instinct can be restrained. As long as you want to restrain it, there is nothing you can't do." Su Jinzhi felt that this body's attachment to the graveyard soil is like a drug addict's drug. Judging from his situation in the past few days, eating The soil on the grave is not good for him at all, and he has to protect Xie Lincheng these few days, Su Jinzhi feels that he shoulders a great responsibility - after all, he can't live without Xie Lincheng.
A drug addict can quit drugs, so he can also quit dirt.
No. 1 laughed: "It seems that you really want to save him."
"Isn't my mission to save him?" Su Jinzhi asked No. 1, "By the way, you and No. 0 have not shown up for a long time."
Number One said: "Number Zero and I are here to guide you to get used to these worlds. Now that you can get along in these worlds like ducks in water, what are Number Zero and I going to do?"
"That could not be better." Number zero is okay, but number one will definitely come out, Su Jinzhi doesn't want to hear the voice of number one.
Number one asked him, "You seem very happy?"
Su Jinzhi denied it flatly: "Your illusion."
Number One smiled coldly, and suddenly asked him another inexplicable question: "Are you enjoying these two worlds?"
"The last world was fine." Su Jinzhi immediately cheered up and answered No. 1's question carefully, "There are ghosts in this world, it's too scary."
"These worlds are all fake, don't you forget?"
"I haven't forgotten, but do you think I'm not afraid of fake ones?" Su Jinzhi emphasized, "Those paper ghosts are too scary. Can you consider making a mosaic for those paper figurines like the previous test papers and books?"
"It's good if you don't forget it." No. 1 didn't agree to Su Jinzhi's request, and disappeared after leaving such a sentence. No matter how Su Jinzhi called it, it didn't appear.
After Su's mother left, Xie Lincheng moved back to Su Jinzhi's side again, and talked into his ear. Su Jinzhi couldn't help shrinking his neck because of the heat. Dirt?" Xie Lincheng has seen Su Jinzhi eating dirt, and to be honest, that appearance is a bit scary, if ordinary people see the person they like has such a weird habit, they might not like it right away, and even stay away from it. open.
But as long as that person is Su Jinzhi, Xie Lincheng won't even blink if he eats human ashes.
But this is because Xie Lincheng doesn't know the danger of Su Jinzhi eating the soil from the grave. If he knew, he would tie Su Jinzhi to the bed with a rope, and he wouldn't let him touch such a sinister thing.
"En." Su Jinzhi nodded with a firm expression.
Xie Lincheng smiled, and just about to say something to him, some voices came from the courtyard outside the hall. With yesterday's experience, Xie Lincheng guessed that it might be someone from the Xie family who came back, and went out to see that it was indeed the case.
They looked even more embarrassed than yesterday, their faces were pale, and their eyes were black and blue, like dead people. The mud prints that did not reach the ankles yesterday had already reached the calves today, and the hands were also covered with mud, as if they had been digging in a muddy field, and there was black mud between the fingers.
But what Xie Lincheng didn't know was that the Xie family went to dig the soil today.
The news that they were carried away by paper figurines last night had spread throughout Qing Town, and they heard some on the way back, but this was not what frightened them the most. What they were most afraid of was that they still woke up in the Xie family cemetery this morning - standing in the dirt like yesterday. The only difference is that yesterday's grave was only below their ankles, and they could get out with a little push; today, the soil was buried up to their calves, and they had to dig it out with their hands to get out of the grave. .
