Starting from helping someone rob a wedding, he was forced to hide in the Sunset Sect

The bright moon hangs high in the sky, emitting a cool light.

On the street, moonlight shone through sparse clouds.

The shadows of the trees swayed on the road, and the moonlight penetrated the leaves, scattering mottled spots of light.

Xu Yeyu looked at the scenery outside the window. In the past, he would have been asleep at this time.

But he had to investigate the strange things happening at Yangxi Inn tonight, so he hadn't fallen asleep yet.

No guest dared to stay overnight at Yangxi Inn, and he was the only one in the inn now.

The evening breeze outside the window blows gently, the leaves sway gently in the wind, and the cicadas chirp leisurely in the wind.

Xu Yeyu stood up, and the wind brought a gust of gloomy air.

Suddenly, a knock on the door broke the silence.

Someone was knocking on the door, and the knocking became more and more urgent.

There is a feeling that if the door is not opened, it will be torn down.

Xu Yeyu opened the door and found no one outside.

Xu Yeyu thought, no wonder no guests dared to stay at Yangxi Inn, it was really scary late at night.

If he were an ordinary person who had never seen the world, he would indeed be scared.

Xu Yeyu looked at a figure in the corner. It was the ghost of an old man.

The phenomenon of someone knocking on the door of Yangxi Inn late at night was caused by this ghost.

Ordinary people cannot see the uncle's ghost, so the guests opened the door and didn't see anything.

The ghost is a little weak and will dissipate on its own in a few days.

"Uncle, do you still have any memory of your life?" Xu Yeyu asked.

Ghosts stay in the human world because they have unfulfilled wishes. They can be freed if their wishes are fulfilled.

Seeing that the uncle did not reply, Xu Yeyu spoke again: "If you have any unfulfilled wishes, just tell me, I will try my best to satisfy you."

The uncle looked at Xu Yeyu with empty eyes. He didn't reply and didn't make any movement.

"Well, it seems that uncle has no memory at all, and you can't speak, so I can only send you on your last journey."

Xu Yeyu stuck a piece of yellow paper on the uncle's forehead.

This is yellow paper specially used to liberate ghosts. When you encounter a ghost with no power, just stick the yellow paper on its head and it will leave the world.

His body began to become blurred and transformed into white balls of light.

Eventually, the light balls disappeared one after another and returned to nothingness.

If the uncle's ghost could communicate, Xu Yeyu wouldn't mind helping him fulfill his unfulfilled wish.

He can fulfill most of the wishes.

For example, if his wife ran away with someone else and he wanted to take revenge on her, Xu Yeyu could do this by simply setting up an illusion array.

Most ghosts cannot tell whether something is real or fake. After you help a ghost understand his wishes, he will leave the world.

This was the first commission Xu Yeyu took after coming to this world.

The evil spirit dissipated, and there was no trace of ghosts in the entire inn.

Xu Yeyu picked up the jade pendant on the ground. It was something left behind by the uncle just now.

He earned another twenty taels of silver today, plus the two letters he delivered before.

This time when he left Sunset Sect, he had already earned forty taels of silver.

If he successfully completes the commission, he will get another fifty taels of silver!

Ninety taels of silver were enough for Xu Yeyu to eat and drink lavishly for a while.

......

......

"This is the reward for you, young man. You can open it and confirm it."

The innkeeper placed a small gray bag in front of Xu Yeyu.

Xu Yeyu put the bag into the storage ring and said with a smile: "You can stay in the inn for a few nights and observe. If there are still ghosts haunting, I will return the money to you directly."

The boss nodded and said, "I believe you, young man. I'll let the waiter stay overnight at the inn these few days. If anything else strange happens, I'll trouble you to help solve it."

The waiter standing nearby looked innocent when he heard this.

Why are you involving me for no reason?

Xu Yeyu picked up the teacup and said, "By the way, I have something to ask you."

"Please tell me, young man. If I knew, I would definitely tell you." said the innkeeper.

Xu Yeyu lowered his voice and said, "Do you know a man in his forties? He is wearing a light blue coarse linen shirt and has a scar on his face."

The boss thought for a moment and said, "Young man, you are talking about Uncle Wang, right? He just passed away last month. Could it be that the ghost that appeared in the inn is Uncle Wang?"

Xu Yeyu nodded and said, "Yesterday's ghost had these characteristics. It should be the Uncle Wang you know."

Generally speaking, ghosts can only stay in the human world for a few days, and at most a month before their souls scatter.

If the resentment or obsession is very deep, this time will be longer.

"Can you tell me about Uncle Wang?" Xu Yeyu asked.

His ghost cannot communicate, and Xu Yeyu can't find out some things.

"Let me tell you."

The innkeeper sighed and continued, "Uncle Wang was originally a warm and hospitable person, but his wife died of an illness five years ago."

"After that, he became very quiet and would only say a few words when asked questions."

“He also passed away some time ago,” the boss added.

"Uncle Wang, does he have other relatives?" Xu Yeyu asked.

Xu Yeyu still has the jade pendant left by Uncle Wang in his hand, and it would be best if it could be handed over to his relatives.

"Uncle Wang has a daughter. After his wife and he passed away, she was adopted by a kind-hearted uncle." The innkeeper replied.

Xu Yeyu nodded, looked at the boss and said, "Where does Uncle Wang's daughter live now? I have something I want to give her."

The boss stood up and said, "Young man, follow me."

Xu Yeyu followed the boss through several streets and came to a small house.

The exterior walls are made of undecorated bricks and tiles, and several strings of wind chimes are hung under the eaves, swaying gently in the breeze and making crisp sounds.

The innkeeper walked forward and knocked on the wooden door.

The wooden door slowly opened with a slight creaking sound, and a little girl, about seven or eight years old, came into view.

Her hair was tied into two ponytails, and her shiny black hair gleamed in the sunlight.

The little girl turned around and shouted, "Uncle, there are guests."

Uncle Wang came to the door, looked at the innkeeper and asked, "Manager Yang, what do you want to do with me today?"

Then his eyes fell on Xu Yeyu.

His eyes became uneasy. Why would a monk come to visit him out of the blue?

"Don't worry, I have no ill intentions." Xu Yeyu said.

He took the jade pendant out of his pocket and placed it in the little girl's hand.

The little girl raised her head and asked in confusion: "Big brother, is this jade pendant for me?"

Xu Yeyu nodded and said, "This is your father's relic."

The little girl lowered her head and held the jade pendant tightly, as if she was afraid that it would slip out of her hand.

Her eyes gradually became moist and crystal tears began to well up in them.

Tears dripped onto the jade pendant, and her voice was choked.

"My father said that he would give me a jade pendant on my eighth birthday, but I thought I wouldn't receive it..."

Xu Yeyu thought that the uncle's ghost was knocking on the guests' doors at Yangxi Inn, probably wanting them to help give the jade pendant to her daughter.

The uncle returned home and found that his daughter was not at home, but he forgot about other relatives, so he could only go to Yangxi Inn every night.

But ordinary people can't see his ghost.

Ghosts retain very few memories of their lives and can only remember some things about their own wishes.

Xu Yeyu reached out his hand, touched the little girl's head and said, "Your father asked me to hand this jade pendant to you."

The little girl looked up and saw her father appear in front of her.

"Happy birthday."

After Uncle Wang finished speaking, his figure gradually disappeared.

Her shoulders kept shaking and tears kept pouring out of her eyes.

......

......

The innkeeper and Xu Yeyu were returning to the inn.

"Young man, was it you who created the figure of Uncle Wang just now?" the boss asked in a low voice.

He felt that the Uncle Wang who suddenly appeared just now was the magic cast by the young man in front of him.

"Who knows?" Xu Yeyu replied.
