Being a ghost and having multiple personalities

This village is no different from the usual places. The two of them first entered the village along a small road. There was a suspension bridge in the middle of the small road. Under the bridge was an abyss. After crossing the bridge, a field appeared.

But they don't know what is growing in the field.

At this time, a man with a hoe walked past them leading a child.

Zhang Lingyue asked, "Dare to ask, is the old village ahead?"

The man nodded, and was about to walk away when he suddenly turned his head and said, "Are you here to ask Old Man Cheng about the death of his daughter again?"

Zhang Lingyue didn't know what this man was talking about, but he always felt that his words were related to what they wanted to ask, so he said, "Old man Cheng?"

At this moment, Zhang Lingyue suddenly thought, Didn't elder brother and Ji Ziyu say that everyone in this village is not old? Why is there an old man?

Seeing that Zhang Lingyue was puzzled, the man said, "You are not the same group of people who came to ask about his family some time ago!"

Zhang Lingyue guessed that the group of people he was talking about should be Zhang Geng and the others who came to ask about things some time ago, so he immediately said, "We are a group of people, and this time we are also here to find the old man!"

When the man heard this, he looked like he had seen a ghost, and then he left after muttering, "See you, old man Cheng!"

Zhong Guchen was about to catch up and ask this man where Old Man Cheng's house was, but Zhang Lingyue stopped him and said, "Forget it, let's ask as we go!"

As they had heard before, the people they met along the way had dark and rough skin, but none of them looked old.

Another strange phenomenon is that there are several coffins in front of every household here, and some people are still working on them.

Zhang Lingyue walked up to a person who was seriously sawing wood, and asked, "Brother, where is Old Man Cheng's house?"

The work in this man's hands didn't stop, he just looked up at Zhang Lingyue and said, "I came to look for him again, I said I'm dead!"

"Dead?" Zhang Lingyue was shocked.

The man smiled, straightened his waist, put the saw in his hand aside, wiped his face with the towel hanging around his neck, and said:

"It's not uncommon for a person to die. There are a few people here who are not about to die."

It seems that this person is probably in his thirties, if according to their rules here, if one has to end one's own life after one's life is over, this person really won't live for a few years, but he downplayed the matter, which is really shocking People are ashamed!

Zhang Lingyue asked, "Then Cheng's daughter..."

"Like his father, unruly!"

Zhang Lingyue asked suspiciously, "How to say?"

"Old man Cheng, he is almost fifty and still alive, don't you think it's strange?"

Zhong Guchen said, "What's so strange?"

Zhang Lingyue poked him with his elbow, but he didn't speak anymore. Zhang Lingyue asked again, "Then what happened to his daughter?"

"The old man Cheng must have encountered something evil. I heard that there are people in Tang County who can do this, so someone from the village went to Tang County to find those fairy gates. After a few days, only two hairs came. Head boy..."

Zhang Lingyue could tell that these two brats must be Ji Ziyu and Hu Huaigu, and the old man Cheng was the one that Ji Ziyu said was forced to commit suicide.

The man continued, "These two boys didn't help much, but what do you say, the old man's daughter actually fell in love with one of them, and we are all from the same village marrying from the same village. Is there a precedent for seeing outsiders? The old man Cheng committed suicide because of his shame. We were afraid that the old man was possessed by the evil ghost and would come back, so we asked the two boys to do some magic and leave. The daughter of the old man Cheng Without a father or a lover, Madman ran off to nowhere. It was only after several months that she fell to her death under the suspension bridge!"

Zhong Guchen suddenly frowned and said, "But we came over that suspension bridge just now, and there are high braided rope fences on both sides of the bridge, she shouldn't be able to fall down so easily!"

The man shook his head, maybe he had enough rest, picked up the saw again, and was about to start sawing wood, but he was taken aback for a moment, and then said, "There is one more thing that I forgot to mention to the people who came before."

Zhang Lingyue hurriedly said, "What's the matter?"

"That's the man. You must obey the rules, otherwise you'll hurt the whole village if you don't live well. Ever since Old Man Cheng and his daughter died, we've been haunted here from time to time, and we never went to Tang County to find someone to see , I randomly found a few Mr. Yin and Yang, but they all said that there are evil things, but they just can’t find them anywhere, but they won’t cause any harm to people. Forgot. But about a year ago, less than a year ago, there was a monk resting here. He said that there was a suppressed evil here, and we suddenly remembered that. The monk was walking back and forth on the suspension bridge Let's go, saying that this evil spirit has been converted, and will never be a demon again in the future!"

Zhang Lingyue first listened carefully to every word in it, for fear of missing a detail, then suddenly heaved a long sigh of relief and said excitedly, "I got it! I got it!"

Zhong Guchen looked puzzled, "What... what do you know?"

"Let's go home quickly!" Zhang Lingyue pulled Zhong Guchen back and walked back, and Zhong Guchen let him pull him like this.

After they passed the suspension bridge, Zhong Guchen said again, "What do you really know?"

Zhang Lingyue slowed down a little, "Haven't you heard that old man Cheng was the evil that Ji Zi wanted them to get rid of, and the girl who died after being pregnant with Hu Huaigu's child was old man Cheng's daughter!"

"I can hear that, but what's the use of it?"

Zhang Lingyue said again, "I think Xiang Hongniao was changed by that girl!"

Zhong Guchen asked suspiciously, "How do you know?"

Zhang Lingyue said, "It must be that after the girl died, her soul was suppressed by others, so the accumulation of resentment disturbed the people in the village. Later, the monk released the ghost and rescued her, but the resentment of the soul was too heavy. He didn't really get her over, and that soul turned into Xianghong bird. It just so happened that Ji Ziyu came to Zhehuagu again this year, and met that Xianghong bird!"

Zhong Guchen thought for a while and said, "This guess is reasonable, but it doesn't seem to make sense. For example, how do you know that the monk didn't save his soul?"

Zhang Lingyue continued to pull Zhong Guchen away, "So this is guesswork, but I think there is still a possibility. I seem to have glimpsed an explanation on the matter of transcendence in the book in my brother's room before. At that time, I just I looked at it in a daze, and when I learned about it today, I suddenly remembered it!"

……

It was evening when they returned to Zhang's mansion, and Zhang Geng was not in the mansion, so Zhang Lingyue took Zhong Guchen and found the book in Zhang Geng's room.

"Look!" Zhang Lingyue showed Zhong Guchen the page about transcendence, "It says..."

Zhong Guchen leaned over to look over, and read, "The case of the white-headed old mother supporting the spirit, and the pink beauty turned into paper money; wait for the next year's cold food festival, let's just say hello... what is this..."

"No, it's the next line!"

Zhong Guchen looked at the last line of small characters, "Ordinary people are full of resentment, and worry about life and death; saints cross the river without seeing a boat, because tourists are thinking about the cold before!"

Zhang Lingyue nodded, "That's the sentence. When a person dies for some reason, he must have received some bad treatment during his lifetime. Only after death will he bother the living. Those who save the dead cannot save the dead because the dead soul is too revengeful... "

Zhang Lingyue turned another page, "In fact, there is another sentence on this page: Advise people to do good and not to do evil, and those who go to reincarnation steal off the ship."

Zhong Guchen excitedly said, "This means that people should do more good deeds and less evil, otherwise even the undead who are successfully saved may sneak back when they pass away!"

Zhang Lingyue nodded again, "That's right! That's why I guessed that the woman's soul hadn't succeeded in being overthrown at all. She lied to the monk, and the monk released the things that suppressed her before, so she came back to dissolve Made 'Xianhong Bird'!"

Zhong Guchen cast a kind of admiration in his eyes, and said, "Zhang Lingyue, I can't see that you are quite smart!"

After being praised, Zhang Lingyue seemed a little embarrassed, pursed his lower lip, and said, "I have to tell my brother as soon as possible for such an important discovery!"

As he spoke, footsteps came from outside Zhang Geng's door, and then the door was slammed open. Zhang Lingyue and Zhong Guchen were shocked.I saw Zhang Geng staggering and sitting on the ground leaning against the wall, his whole body reeking of alcohol.

Zhang Lingyue squatted down and patted his face, and said softly, "Brother?"

"Huh?" Zhang Geng said vaguely without moving his eyes.

Zhang Geng called Zhong Guchen over, and the two of them carried the drunk Zhang Geng to the bedroom.

Zhang Geng refused at first, but Zhang Lingyue said helplessly, "You can't sit on the ground, you should lie down on the bed first!"

Only then did Zhang Geng let the two people beside him walk, and he still mumbled as he left, "Ji...Ji Ziyu...he just...is too lustful!"

Zhang Lingyue let go of his hands suddenly, and Zhang Geng almost fell to one side. Fortunately, he was already at the bedside, so he fell onto the bed.

Zhang Lingyue stood straight, and asked with a blank face, "What's wrong with Ji Ziyu?"

Lying on the bed, Zhang Geng let out a long sigh of relief, and said, "Ji Ziyu—the emotion is too strong—you will get angry if you say a few words—"

Zhang Lingyue pulled Zhong Guchen out of the room, and Zhong Guchen looked into the room and said, "Brother Zhang, is he alright?"

Zhang Lingyue said, "It doesn't look like something happened, let's tell him about it tomorrow!"

Zhong Guchen nodded and followed Zhang Lingyue back to his room.

They opened the door, and since there was no light in the room, the red lantern in Zhang Lingyue's room was very conspicuous.

Zhong Guchen took off the lantern as if he had seen some rare treasure, and said, "Why didn't I notice it before, you still have such a thing!"

But Zhang Lingyue didn't take it seriously, after lighting the lamp, he took the lantern back from Zhong Guchen's hand, "What's so unusual about this?"

Zhong Guchen said, "This must be a lot of money. Anyway, you usually...don't go out at night, why don't you give it to me!"

"Tsk!" Zhang Lingyue looked at Zhong Guchen, "Someone gave it to me, I can't just give it to you!"

As soon as the words fell, there was a figure standing outside the door, Zhang Lingyue said, "Who is it?"

The people outside replied, "Second Young Master, Zhong Fuzong has come to bring Young Master Zhong back!"
