Forced into a substitute marriage? The concubine’s unparalleled medical skills amaze the world

The matter at Heyuan Pass was left to Pei Xuan. After Heyuan Pass was over, he went directly to other disaster-stricken places in Jiangbei.

During the rainy season, basically many places in Jiangbei are affected by disasters, but Heyuan Pass is particularly serious. This is also a gift from the Xie family.

Although there were floods in other places, the situation was much better.

Pei Xuan alone is enough.

And they have more important things to do in Jiangbei.

The famous families in Jiangbei have existed for hundreds of years, and the first-generation government offices in Jiangbei are completely inferior to those famous families.

What Zhou Jingxuan wants to do this time is to separate the power in the hands of Jiangbei's prominent families.

The first stop was Xie’s house.

This is thanks to the contract signed by the two Xie brothers.

Since the two Xie brothers are no longer here, it is natural that the debt should be repaid by someone from the Xie family.

This trip to Ningzhou is completely different from the previous trip to Heyuan Pass.

Rest while walking along the way.

When I finally get out, I always want to see more and play more.

Coming out of Heyuan Pass, the journey is completely different.

Although flooding still exists, refugees are rarely seen.

Listening to the sound of rain along the way made me feel a little more comfortable.

In the evening, Jiang Si and his party settled in a hotel.

The hotel is not very good, but it is the only place nearby where you can stay.

It takes half a day's journey to reach the county seat.

The hotel looks simple from the outside, but it's nice inside. There are many people staying in the lobby.

Zhou Jingxuan and others paid for the room and found a table to sit down at.

It was raining outside, but it was very warm inside.

A flash of lightning flashed, followed by a rumble of thunder.

The hotel door suddenly opened, and a group of well-dressed people walked in.

At the head were a pair of young men and women, followed by their servants.

The man wiped the moisture from his body, and the woman looked a little unhappy and wiped the moisture from her shoulders with a handkerchief.

Jiang Si glanced at it and then looked away. The two paid for the room and found a seat to sit down, which happened to be not far from Jiang Si and the others.

The cold wind blew in, bringing rain in, and the waiter hurriedly stepped forward and closed the door.

The hall became lively again.

One of the tables at one of the tables was a little loud. It was a drunk man. He had one foot on the stool and a wine bottle in his hand: "Have you heard about the haunting in Meiling?"

He took a sip of wine, then deliberately lowered his voice and said, "This is Meiling."

"I heard that there was a female ghost here. Many years ago, because her husband disliked her for being ugly, she found other women outside."

"After this Aunt Mei knew about it, she didn't know where to find a folk remedy. She said that if you peel off a human face and stick it on your own face, you will be as beautiful as a flower."

"The prettier your face is, the better it will look when you put it on."

"This Aunt Mei has gone crazy, killing young and beautiful girls everywhere in exchange for her husband's love for her."

The man had a drunken blush on his face, and his voice was a little louder: "At the beginning, Aunt Mei's man did treat Aunt Mei better because she became more and more beautiful after she put on human skin."

"But the good times did not last long, because Mei Gu killed many girls, and everyone became vigilant and did not let those young girls go out."

"Mei Gu will never have a chance to strike again."

"The time a face can be used is limited. Aunt Mei can no longer find the person to do it. She can only use the human skin that was taken off before."

"But human skin will rot over time, and the human skin on Gu Mei's face rotted and fell off that night."

The man drank another gulp of wine, his voice deliberately sounded a bit sinister, and the timid one was shrinking into a ball.

As if to complement the man and heighten the terrifying atmosphere, a thunder exploded above his head, and then the cold wind blew open a window.

Everyone in the hall was shocked.

The proprietress of the hotel twisted her waist and cursed: "Wang Da, you are scaring people again!"

"I've heard this story eight hundred times."

The proprietress directed the waiter to close the window, and Wang Da chuckled: "It's a rainy day like this, it's a good time to listen to some stories."

"Besides, I'm not trying to scare people, it's something passed down from the older generation."

The windows were closed, and the people who were scared before regained their composure. No one wanted to show their timid and fearful side, and they all shouted: "Go on, tell me what's next."

Wang Da raised his head and took a big sip of wine: "Boss Boss, this is what they asked me to say. I didn't mean to scare people."

The landlady glared at him, then twisted away.

Wang Da then continued slowly.

"Where did you just talk?"

"Oh, come to think of it, that night, Mei Gu, with her face that was almost rotting, was waiting for her husband to fall asleep."

"When the relationship between the two became more intense, Aunt Mei's husband suddenly felt that something had fallen down."

"He turned sideways and held the object that fell on his face in front of the candlelight, only to find that it was a piece of human skin that was about to rot."

"Mei Gu's husband screamed in fright. Mei Gu hurriedly stepped forward, stretched her head to her husband's side, and asked in confusion, what's wrong with your husband?"

Wang Da was talking about hard work, and Jiang Si and the others' dishes were just served.

The waiter glanced at Jiang Si and his party, then looked at Wang Da: "The food has been served. Please use it, sir."

Everyone was attracted by Wang Da's story, and Jiang Si and his party were no exception.

They were all a little curious about the follow-up.

Wang Da was startled and said loudly: "Good guy, that Aunt Mei is not good-looking to begin with, and she has been wearing human skin for a long time, which has caused her own face to be completely rotten."

"She stretched her head over like this, and what Mei Gu's husband saw was a rotten face, very close to him, and she called him husband."

"Mei Gu's husband was so frightened that he ran out screaming in his underwear."

"When Mei Gu's affair was exposed, people in the village said she was a monster or a monster. Led by Mei Gu's husband, they burned Gu Mei alive."

"After Mei Gu's death, she became very resentful and turned into a fierce ghost."

"There used to be a lot of people living in Meiling, but after Aunt Mei died, they all left."

"They often meet a woman in the middle of the night with a rotten face. She will stop people and ask, am I beautiful?"

"When someone answered, she killed the person."

"Some people also say that Aunt Mei will stop people and ask her about her face?"

"When she meets a beautiful girl, Mei Gu, she will peel off the person's face and press it on her own face."

Wang Da tried his best to open his eyes wide: "A month ago, a girl died in Meiling."

"She was covered in injuries, and her face was ripped off."

"The big guy said it was Mei Gu who did it."

After saying that, he glanced at Jiang Si and the woman who just entered the door, and smiled: "These two young ladies are very beautiful."

"You have to be careful, don't let Aunt Mei see it."

"Otherwise, Aunt Mei will steal your face and do it herself!"
