Infinite flow: I have a trick! I have a trick for fighting ghosts

"Oh my god! I was almost scared to death!" Li Mingjie stepped into the backyard while breathing heavily.

His forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat, his face was as pale as paper, and there was still a look of fear in his eyes.

In the distance, Shangguan Qingye, who heard the sound, immediately stood up and looked at the people with pale faces.

"Hey, didn't you go to check those two rooms? Why are you here?" There was a hint of confusion and worry in Shangguan Qingye's voice.

"No, you two are in such a mess, aren't you?" Li Mingjie couldn't help laughing when he saw Shangguan Qingye's face, which was so pale that it looked like a human.

His laughter was playful and light-hearted. Seeing Shangguan Qingye and Nanyu's embarrassed looks made him feel much better.

It turned out that not only they were in pain all over their bodies, but the two coffin builders were not much better off.

"Don't mention it!" Li Mingjie waved his hands, looking helpless.

He held his stomach tightly with his hands, a painful expression on his face.

"It was a dog-eat-dog fight, and it almost bit me."

Li Mingjie waved his hands and covered his stomach. The abdominal pain he just felt was not just a simple stomachache. It was more like childbirth without anesthesia, and it almost hurt to death.

"Dog bites dog? What the hell?" Shangguan Qingye asked with a puzzled look on his face.

"Shit, I don't know how to explain this to you. Anyway, that idiot Wen Zishang used 'Summon' and ended up summoning a green-robed bald ghost."

Li Mingjie said while breathing heavily.

"What? A green-robed bald ghost? Isn't this that thing?" Shangguan Qingye immediately turned around and looked at Nanyu.

"Are you saying that you are in danger?" Nanyu pulled Wusheng in front of everyone, glanced at them and spoke.

"Yes." Zhang Jiaqiao took out the booklet from his pocket and put "Loyalty" in his hand for the two to see.

Zhang Jiaqiao recounted the entire process from the moment they entered the "Wedding Hall" to the moment the crisis occurred in the "Ancestral Hall".

He described the story in great detail, but his voice was slightly trembling, and it was obvious that he had not fully recovered from the danger he had just experienced.

Zhang Jiaqiao gently opened the booklet, showing the two the specific content of "loyalty", and told them that the wedding dress ghost had suffered the "loyalty punishment".

After Nanyu finished reading the booklet, he took "Zhongzhen" and weighed it carefully.

"Loyalty? Loyalty is good." Nanyu murmured to himself.

His voice was very low, but Shangguan Qingye next to him still heard it.

"What's good?" Shangguan Qingye asked curiously.

"Nothing, I just think this thing is pretty good." Nanyu answered vaguely.

He thought to himself that this "loyalty" should be very useful for feeling pain, such as stringing intestines, cutting open the abdomen and cutting flesh.

However, he did not say the second half of the sentence, but only gave a truthful evaluation in his heart.

"Wen Zishang, does a door appear every time you use 'Summon'?"

Nanyu asked with a slightly raised eyebrow.

"Yes, how did you know?" Wen Zishang nodded and replied with a look of surprise on his face.

"Hey, do you know where that green-robed bald ghost came from?" Shangguan Qingye asked meaningfully.

The corners of his mouth rose slightly, and there was a hint of cunning in his eyes.

"Where did it come from?" Wen Zishang asked. Everyone except Zhang Jiaqiao was a little curious.

Shangguan Qingye stopped pretending and pointed at the coffin under the locust tree with white flowers falling.

"Yes, he is the one you summoned."

"What?! Sure, sure."

Wen Zishang was stunned at first, then he laughed.

"Isn't this also lightening your burden? You don't even have to build a coffin."

"Lao Wen, have you ever thought that we have to go back upstairs to find the peach wood hairpin?" Li Mingjie said at the right time.

"Uh...this...this can't be blamed on me, right?" Wen Zishang said helplessly.

Nanyu slowly shifted his gaze away from the crowd and looked towards the hall.

The hall was pitch black with extremely low visibility. There was no sign of a dog-eat-dog fight, only endless silence and the unknown.

When everyone saw Nanyu looking behind him, they also turned their heads.

When they found that the Wedding Dress Ghost and the Green Robe Ghost did not catch up with them, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

My tense nerves were slightly relaxed at this moment, and the worries in my heart temporarily dissipated.

"Since there's no danger yet, let's sort out our thoughts first."

Zhang Jiaqiao's voice was steady and powerful, echoing in the quiet backyard.

Everyone nodded in agreement.

"Okay, let's go to that pavilion over there." Shangguan Qingye raised his hand and pointed to the small pavilion next to the fish pond. "Be careful, there's a well over there," Nanyu reminded.

Shangguan Qingye nodded to show that he understood.

After everyone arrived at the small pavilion, they all sat down.

They laid out on the table all the useful clues they had picked up at the beginning.

A half-page of a thin and dark red "喜" character, a folk remedy for having a child, a yellowed booklet, and the word "忠贞".

There are also wooden figures, love knots, and a yellowed diary in a human-skin suitcase.

Nanyu also took out the skull and placed it on the table.

The skull raised his eyebrows and mumbled, as if he wanted to say something but didn't.

"We now know her full name."

As Zhang Jiaqiao spoke, he slowly opened the booklet he took out from the wedding hall, and then pointed to the name on the booklet - Zhu Sisi.

Now everyone still has a long way to go to complete the task, but compared to their previous confusion, they are no longer running around like headless flies.

They began to have some clues and preliminary directions, just like seeing faint signposts in the fog.

"Now let's complete the tasks that we can touch first. And what is the Heart Gate?"

Li Mingjie asked, "What does this mean?"

Nanyu kept thinking about what the Skull said at Zhao Cuizhi's house.

"No taboos, punish evil and avoid."

"In the middle of the night, dark clouds covered the sky."

"The 18th day of the first lunar month is an auspicious day"

"Marriage will happen as soon as the Ghost Gate opens, and some are childhood sweethearts."

"She was raped by many people and abandoned in a well as a baby."

This sentence seems to mean that a girl married her childhood sweetheart on the 18th day of the first lunar month, but later she was bullied by many people and the baby was thrown into a well. But if you think about it carefully, it is not true at all.

Nanyu pondered over it in his mind, and suddenly a sentence he had heard in his previous life came to mind:

"In ancient times, there was a kind of wedding called a ghost marriage, which meant arranging a marriage for someone who had died unexpectedly."

Isn’t the day for weddings for the dead usually the day with the heaviest yin energy?

"Marriage takes place when the Ghost Gate opens." Doesn't this mean a ghost marriage?

The more Nanyu thought about it, the more it made sense.

But what does "having childhood sweethearts" mean? Looking at Qiao Yang's diary, he and his wife were not childhood sweethearts at all.

All the evidence shows that Zhu Sisi is not the childhood sweetheart who was arranged to have a ghost marriage.

"Do you think it could be two people?" Nanyu suddenly spoke, looking at Shangguan Qingye.

"Huh? What two people?" Shangguan Qingye looked confused and was a little bewildered by Nanyu's sudden words.
