As soon as Wen Ran and Wen Ran walked away, Jiang Yuying's parents immediately started arguing. Jiang's father blamed Jiang's mother: "I shouldn't have listened to that family back then, what kind of ghost marriage, now it's all right, I picked sesame seeds and lost watermelon. This dark marriage is over, how can it be so easy for people to withdraw from the engagement!"

Jiang's mother immediately quarreled: "For whom did I agree to the ghost marriage? It's not for your son! And you also agreed to this at the beginning, but now you blame me!"

Jiang's father slapped the table with a slap: "I told you not to be in such a hurry, just hurry up! 50 yuan! What do you think about this matter!"

Thinking of the 50 yuan, Jiang's mother's heart was also bleeding: "I will go to Xiong's house tomorrow, and the [-] yuan has not been moved, so I will refund it."

While Jiang's mother was talking, their son Jiang Yufeng came back: "What money will I get back? What will I get to buy a house for me after getting the money back? Is this marriage still going to end? That girl is back? I want to talk to you about the ghost marriage." Son? Where is she?!"

Jiang Yufeng is not short, about 1.7 meters [-]. Although he was born in the countryside, he has never done farm work since he was a child. All the best food in the family is close to him. The roughness of a person, not to mention the soft skin and tender flesh, is indeed grown up because he is the root of the Jiang family. From now on, the two elders will count on their son to take care of them, and their daughter will marry off sooner or later. So the preference is for the Pacific Ocean, the son is raised as a master, and the daughter is raised as a slave.

The attitude of parents also determines their sibling relationship, and also determines Jiang Yufeng's three views. In his perception of the world, Jiang Yuying should sacrifice for him and be squeezed by them for the rest of her life. , actually ran away, maybe how to work hard all these years.It is her honor to be able to exchange her for a little gift now!

Knowing that her son had misunderstood, Jiang's mother hurriedly said: "Yingzi is indeed back, and brought back a man who said he wanted to marry Yingzi, and the bride price would be 50, but the man knew that our family gave Yingzi a ghost marriage, so he was not happy. , so I request that the ghost marriage be withdrawn, otherwise this marriage will be blown up."

When he heard 50 yuan, Jiang Yufeng's eyes lit up. His girlfriend's house didn't want any bride price. He only asked for a house in the town. The house here is not too expensive. It's good to buy a house for 50 yuan. That's right, [-], then they still have hundreds of thousands left. When the time comes to set up a shop and do some business, their family will be able to get out of this muddy land.

Thinking of a rich future, Jiang Yufeng swallowed his saliva: "50 really?"

Jiang's mother said: "Of course, I said it face to face, but the problem is that this marriage has already been concluded, and people may not be willing to withdraw."

Jiang Yufeng licked his lips: "Then try it tomorrow, the Xiong family can't be offended, at worst we can find a younger and more beautiful one for their family, just add some money, if it doesn't work, just fight with the Xiong family a negotiation."

Mother Jiang: "How to discuss?"

Jiang Yufeng chuckled: "Let the ancestors of their family be quiet for a while, we pretend to have withdrawn from the ghost marriage, anyway, if we get the money, then don't think about us giving it away, not to mention, if we really want to anger the ancestors of the Xiong family, It’s hard to tell who’s unlucky.”

Hearing his son's words, Jiang's father couldn't help but lit a dry cigarette and took two puffs: "Is this possible?"

Jiang Yufeng said with a smile: "Why not, and you all know what the Xiong family is capable of. If that girl really found a rich man, she might be able to cooperate with the Xiong family."

The Jiang family couple suddenly didn't quite understand: "What is the cooperation?"

Jiang Yufeng's eyes showed greed: "The Xiong family has a capable ancestor, and their ancestor married a girl, and the girl found a man who can give 50 yuan, what do you think we can cooperate with, that man If he is good enough, he might be able to make a fortune with the ancestors of the Xiong family, but if he is not good enough, is this a ghost that ordinary people dare to provoke?"

Hearing his son's words, the two of them suddenly became more active. They no longer focused on how to get rid of the ghost marriage. Even if the ghost marriage couldn't be refunded, it was a way to get money. Thinking about it this way, Mother Jiang Immediately, I felt that this money-losing product didn't seem to be losing money that much anymore, and it was going to go well. They really didn't have to worry about eating and drinking for the rest of their lives.

On the other hand, Wen Ran, who returned to the town, finally found a chain hotel with reasonable conditions, but the distance was a little far.

Jiang Yuying scrambled to pay the room fee, but was stopped by Wen Ran: "There is no need to worry about such a small amount of money. I'll wear the talisman for you. No matter what you hear or see at night, just lie on the bed and don't move."

Jiang Yuying nodded nervously, and said again: "Why did we choose such a far away place on purpose to live out?" Although she didn't have much contact with Wen Ran, it didn't seem like Wen Ran didn't like the bad environment because he disliked it. People who want to live well after traveling so far, so I couldn't help but ask curiously.

Wen Ran smiled and said, "Wouldn't living in your house just give your parents a chance to attack?"

Jiang Yuying was stunned: "Do it?" It wouldn't be what she thought, no matter how courageous her parents were, they probably wouldn't be able to do it.

Wen Ran didn't say much. Although he doesn't know the Jiang family, he understands human nature. Since the Xiong family can find a wife for their ancestors, it must not be for no reason. Ordinary people have access to the power of ghosts and gods. But when you grow up, you can do anything, so it's always right to be on guard.

Probably because Jiang Yuying came back, so the old ancestor who was married to her was even more disturbed. Before, they were far away and could only play tricks through dreams. Now that the distance is closer, they directly move their real bodies.

The town on their side is not big, and there is almost no nightlife. At about eight|nine o'clock, there are basically no people on the road, and at twelve o'clock in the middle of the night, there is only the sound of insects.

On the street without street lights, there was a burst of fog for no reason. When the thick fog emerged, even the sound of insects stopped.In the mist, a few people with stiff expressions, but their mouths were strangely cleft to the ears, were walking on tiptoes, carrying their favorite son, towards the hotel where Jiang Yuying was staying.If Jiang Yuying could see the people carrying the sedan chairs, she would definitely recognize them as the group of paper figurines who carried her to the hall in her dream.

The paper figurines flew lightly to the upper floors of the hotel, and floated into the room through the open window, but after entering the room, the group of paper figurines were stunned, because the one in the room was not the bride they were going to welcome, but a man.

The paper figurines have no thinking, and their action is completely dependent on ghost energy. Naturally, they can't identify people, but they can sense the smell of marks. The people in this room are not marked, so the paper figurines want to retreat. Go out and find another room.

Without waiting for the paper figurine to move, Wen Ran directly threw out a paper chain from his hand, and surrounded the paper figurine and the sedan chair: "Since you're here, don't leave." As he spoke, he casually moved towards his side, Ben The paper figurine, which didn't weigh much, was directly locked by him.

Taking a closer look, Wen Ran immediately frowned in disgust. The handicraft of this paper piercing was not an old handicraft inherited from the family.

This paper figurine is not the kind of ordinary paper figurine that can be torn apart casually. After being trapped, the paper figurine suddenly changed its momentum. There were four sedan chair bearers and four bride welcomes. The paper figurine, Qiqi turned to look at Wen Ran.

Those rigid eyes, but the weird mouth that was split to the ear, it was indeed a bit scary to see it at night.But in Wen Ran's eyes, it's not that scary, it's just that it's so ugly that people don't want to look at it too much.

At the moment when the ghostly aura on the paper figurines surged, Wen Ran retracted the chain in his hand, and before the paper figurines had time to attack, they were tightly bound together. They were made of paper, so naturally they would not make any sound, so Can only struggle crazily.

Wen Ran didn't bother to compete with these paper figurines, so he activated a fire talisman and burned the paper figurines clean.

As soon as the paper man was burned, the ancestor of the Xiong family sensed it. This old ghost has lived for many years. Even though he has never been out in this mountain, he is not completely ignorant of the outside world. At least he knows There is a kind of person in this world who specializes in hunting down demons and catching ghosts.

Originally, he was quite happy, his dark marriage partner came back on his own initiative, which was obedience to him, but he didn't expect that he came back this time, and brought a ghost catcher with him.

Thinking that he has been a ghost for hundreds of years, is he still no match for a person who has only lived for a few decades?

Jiang Yuying, who was sleeping in the room next to Wen Ran, thought that she would not be able to fall asleep. After all, returning here was equivalent to coming to that ghost's territory, but she didn't expect that she fell asleep in a daze after lying on the bed for a long time.It's just that in her sleep, she seemed to hear someone calling her name, and Jiang Yuying subconsciously wanted to answer, but just as she opened her mouth, she suddenly woke up.

She remembered what Wen Ran had warned her, so she kept silent, pulled the quilt over her head, tightly grasped the talisman Wen Ran gave her, and just lay on the bed motionless.But then, the movement in her room became louder and louder, from a small sound to gradually louder and more orderly footsteps.

Jiang Yuying's heart tightened suddenly, she knew that these were Yin soldiers, and in the constant nightmares, these Yin soldiers often appeared.

As soon as the Yin soldiers appeared, the temperature in the room dropped to freezing point. Jiang Yuying, who was wrapped in a quilt, was shivering slightly. She didn't know whether she was cold or frightened. She felt that her room was full of people standing at the moment. ghost.One ghost is enough to suffocate people, a room full of ghosts, just thinking about that scene, she feels like she is going to die suddenly on the spot.

However, apart from the temperature in the room being too low, the sound of footsteps also stopped, and there was no other movement. Jiang Yuying really wanted to pull back the quilt and take a look outside, but she knew that sometimes people die because of their own curiosity, so Lying obediently on the bed without moving, it lasted until dawn. When the light in the room became brighter and brighter, Jiang Yuying moved and lay down on her stiff body, and slightly opened a seam of the quilt to look out. The room was empty, nothing.

Jiang Yuying sat on the bed, she didn't expect that the night passed without incident.

When Jiang Yuying came to look for Wen Ran, Wen Ran was having breakfast, seeing Jiang Yuying's appearance, Wen Ran smiled: "Didn't sleep all night?"

Jiang Yuying nodded: "I heard footsteps in my room last night, and then it suddenly became very cold, and I didn't dare to pull the quilt to look."

Wen Ran said: "It's a good thing you didn't watch it, otherwise you would have been scared to death."

Jiang Yuying asked nervously, "Did those ghosts really come last night?"

Wen Ran said: "I've been here, I'm sure, it's indeed a Yin soldier, not some messy idle ghost, so this matter is still a bit tricky."

No matter how many idle ghosts there are, it's not a good thing, and they can be overrun by spending more energy, but it's very difficult for Yin soldiers to be overrun, because they have military souls, and the condensed power of military souls may not even be able to withstand ghosts from the underworld. , not to mention living people.

After hearing this, Jiang Yuying's palms were sweating nervously: "Then what should I do? Will they come again tonight?"

Wen Ran said: "It will definitely come, but don't worry, since I brought you back, I will take you away. While those things can't come out during the day, you should catch up on sleep." I got Jiang Yuying a new talisman, the one had been corroded by Yin Qi last night, it might not be powerful enough, so I had to replace it with a new one.

Leaving Jiang Yuying in the hotel, Wen Ran went out to wander around by herself. This town is indeed not big, and it took less than an hour to ride a bicycle around the whole town.When I turned around the Kuma Glass Shop, I saw a strange person.

It was a middle school student, wearing a school uniform, rushing to do his homework in a small cake shop opposite the glass shop.

Wen Ran was born with yin and yang eyes, and he still has yin and yang eyes that can observe Qi, but seeing too much of some things is actually not good for him, so Wen Ran keeps his eyes closed if nothing happens. As long as he doesn't deliberately, he is basically It can shield other people's aura, except for Qi Yunjing, whose aura is too strong to be shielded.

Originally, Wen Ran didn't intend to go into that dessert shop, but when he passed by, he felt that the child's face gave off a sense of disobedience. When he walked in, the scent of the dessert shop couldn't cover up the smell of death on the child.

Any existence has its own way of expression. Even things that cannot be seen or touched have a unique taste or sound, so death actually has a taste. Some ordinary people are very inspired, even without special training. You can smell it, but most people can't.

Wen Ran smelled the smell of death on the child, so he opened his eyes and took a closer look at his aura and face. Both the aura and face told him that the child was dead, even for a long time. But now he is still sitting here alive, interacting with people like an ordinary boy, and seeing that the aura on his body is similar to the aura emanating from the Xiong's store opposite, Wen Ran guessed that he might be from the Xiong's family, What's more, he was the reason why the Xiong family found a ghost marriage for that old ghost.

Wen Ran kept staring at the boy, and even the wooden man noticed it. The boy looked up from the book and saw a good-looking little brother sitting opposite him, and looked away shyly for no reason.

Wen Ran smiled at him, and then waved. The boy pursed his lips slightly and hesitated for a while, but he still put down his pen and walked over, and said in Mandarin with a local accent: "Are you looking for me?"

Wen Ran: "Why don't you do your homework in your shop and come here?"

The boy was obviously taken aback, and looked at Wen Ran curiously: "You know me?"

Wen Ran said: "I know, I don't know, you look a lot like your father, so I know you are a child of the Xiong family, and I am probably a distant relative of your family. There may be some contradictions in the older generation. I don’t know each other anymore, so I don’t know your family well.”

The boy sat across from Wen Ran, and became even more curious: "Distant relative? Are you here to find my father?"

Wen Ran shook her head: "No, I'm here to look for the ancestral grave, and I want to pay respects. Do you know where the ancestral grave is at home?"

The boy said: "It's on Pigeon Mountain, but if no one is carrying it, you probably won't be able to find it, because it's just a graveyard, except for my family who knows which one it is, and outsiders don't know it. There's not even a tombstone."

Wen Ran: "It's okay, can you point me to a rough place, I'll just go up and have a look."

The boy thought for a while, turned back to get his homework, tore a piece of draft paper, and drew a simple map for him. He had a good impression of this good-looking little brother in front of him, and he believed his distant relative's words, But after all, he was a stranger, so he didn't say to lead him up the mountain. He still had some precautions: "If you really can't find it, you can come to my house to find my father, and let my father take you there."

Wen Ran nodded, and said again: "Is your head injured?"

The boy touched the wound on his head that had healed to the point where it only needed a bandage to stick it up and said, "Well, I was hit by a car before, but it's almost healed."

Wen Ran patted the boy on the head before leaving, and glanced at him with a smile: "I'm leaving."

The boy said: "Are you really not coming to my house as a guest? The grievances of the older generation should have nothing to do with us now."

Wen Ran smiled when she heard the words: "I'm afraid your father won't welcome me."

After Wen Ran finished speaking, he left the dessert shop. The boy sat in the shop for a while, then packed his schoolbag and went back to his own shop. Their house was made of glass, and they often had to cut it. It was dusty and noisy, so he went He was doing his homework at the dessert shop opposite. Originally, he wanted to talk to his parents about the relative he met just now, but seeing that his parents seemed to be entertaining guests, he thought about it and went home first.

At this moment, the Xiong family and his wife looked at the Jiang family three with unfriendly expressions: "This dark marriage has already been concluded. You can take it as your current marriage. You can leave if you say you want to leave? If you really want to leave, yes, I will take you to the front of your ancestors." Say it yourself, and bear the consequences yourself!"

Jiang Yufeng hurriedly said: "We are not saying that we must leave. There is always room for discussion on this matter. The ancestors in your family are so powerful. Haven't you thought about developing this business into the city in the future?"

Although Xiong Qiang's shop is not too big, he is still a businessman. He has been in business for so many years. If he couldn't even see the calculation in Jiang Yufeng's eyes, he would have lost everything a long time ago, so he was full of dissatisfaction. Nai said: "I don't care what you call, it's none of our business. It was agreed at the beginning that you voluntarily agreed to the ghost marriage with a gift of 8 yuan. Said, between me and you, money and goods are settled, and there is nothing to do in the future, so don't come here!"

Hearing that Xiong Qiang wanted to drive away even if he didn't want to listen, Jiang Yufeng hurriedly said: "That man is from a big city, if we can catch up with him, it will be easier to develop in the city in the future, don't you want your Is my son stuck in this small town all his life?!"

It's okay not to mention his son, but when he mentioned his son, Xiong Qiang drove him away without hesitation: "How our family develops is our family's business, and it has nothing to do with you. If you want to plot people, that's your business, don't Involving my family, will you leave? If you don't leave, don't blame me for being rude!"

Xiong Qiang's attitude was really beyond Jiang Yufeng's expectations. He had thought about all kinds of possibilities, but he never thought that people would be so hostile to them and drive them away without even sitting down and drinking a cup of tea. If the Xiong family doesn't cooperate with such a plan, wouldn't his 50 yuan be completely hopeless?

Thinking of the possibility that the money he got would be lost, Jiang Yufeng became impatient: "We're announcing the engagement! We'll return your dowry money to you, and you return the marriage certificate to us!"

Xiong Qiang's face turned cold: "I said, it's okay to resign the engagement. I went to my ancestors and told them that the marriage certificate had already been burned to the ancestors. If you don't know the way, I can take you up there. Don't talk about anything else!"

The Jiang family stayed in the village farming all their lives. Except when beating and scolding their daughter, they were justified. As soon as they came out to face outsiders, they would instantly short-circuit others. Therefore, when their son was negotiating with others, they dared not even say a word, let alone Knowing what to say, he looked anxiously at his son until he was directly pushed out of the door: "Hey, what should I do?"

Jiang Yufeng is only a high school diploma. He has been in such a place that is bigger than his palm all his life, and he has never been out. , he was even more irritable: "What to do, what to do, how do I know what to do! It's so annoying!"

After Xiong Qiang sent Jiang's family away, his complexion was still unsightly. Mrs. Xiong, who had been sitting by the side without speaking, turned blue even more: "Are they regretting it? What if they really want to break the contract?"

Xiong Qiang comforted his wife: "Break the contract and let them break the contract with the ancestors themselves. If the ancestors are angry, they are just throwing fire at them. After the dark marriage is over, our deal with their family is also over. If they dare to rely on us, our family will be destroyed for so many years. The business is not done in vain!"

When Mrs. Xiong heard her husband's words, she was still worried in various ways. Just in time, her son called and asked when they would be home. The two of them were not in the mood to stay in the store anymore, so they closed the store early and went home.

When they got home and saw their son in good health, the manic depression of the husband and wife eased a little.

Seeing his father, Xiong Hao hurriedly told the people he met in the dessert shop today.

Xiong Qiang's expression changed again: "Did you tell him where our ancestral grave is?"

Seeing that his father's face seemed wrong, Xiong Hao said with some fear: "Well, Dad, is there really a big enmity between our family and that little brother's family?"

There are no distant relatives in Xiong Qiang's ancestors who have a bad relationship. They have lived in this area for generations, and it is not good to ask the ancestral grave. This reminds people of a very bad place, but he does not want to scare his son. So he said: "No, Dad doesn't know what kind of distant relative it is. In this way, Dad will go and see, and you stay at home with Mom."

His wife also looked at her husband worriedly, she just wanted their family of three to be well, why something always happened.

Wen Ran, who was on the Xiong family's ancestral grave at the moment, found a stone pier and sat down, while folding the talisman papers, he said: "We can still have a good talk if we come out by ourselves, but if I beat it out, then there is nothing to talk about. Pick one and you pick one."

A gust of cold wind responded to him.

Wen Ran smiled: "I like those of you who are unwilling to cooperate the most. Do you know what I am best at? I am best at beating those disobedient guys until they are obedient."
