Record of Yin and Yang

Because this screen is so beautiful, Master Liu had nothing to do after dinner, so he moved a stool and sat in front of the screen to appreciate it carefully. When he was indulging in it, the stool behind him suddenly fell to the ground with a bang He wondered if the mouse knocked it down, the screen suddenly changed horribly, and then the tables and other stools in the room moved in a mess...

Now, after being frightened, Master Liu regained some sense, and looked at Gu Jiu and the others suspiciously.

Gu Jiu smiled helplessly, "Master Liu, you don't suspect that this screen is our fault, do you?"

The middle-aged male ghost whispered behind Gu Jiu: "I just dropped a stool, and he was frightened by the screen." , except that he knocked down the first stool, all other things in the room were made by him after being frightened. He was really frightened at the time...

"Could there really be ghosts in this world?" Master Liu also understood that the abnormality of the screen and other movements in the room just now could not be achieved by a few tricks, and just now he listened to Shao Yi read the scriptures several times Wen, my heart quickly settled down, I felt deeply, and I couldn't help but become more frightened.

"Yes..." Master Quan's expression was indescribable, and he patted Master Liu's shoulder empathetically,

Gu Jiu told Master Liu to send out the servants before explaining the situation to Master Liu. When Master Liu knew what the screen was embroidered with, he wished he could throw it away immediately.

The middle-aged male ghost couldn't wait to ask Gu Jiu: "Does he not want this screen? Otherwise, give it to me later. There is not a single burial object left in my cemetery that was looted by grave robbers. It's really shabby..."

Gu Jiu glanced at him, "You have a good idea."

"..." The middle-aged male ghost curled his lips unhappily, and secretly glared at Master Quan: If it weren't for these people, he would still be sleeping soundly in the tomb with his tomb objects in his arms.

Master Quan, who didn't know it, was instantly clouded, and he shivered from the cold.

"Master Liu, we will clean up the things on the screen for you, but I hope you will not disclose this matter to the public for now." Gu Jiu said to Master Liu.

"Clean it up, will it be all right?" Master Liu said.

"Yes, it's just that its raw material will not change in any way." Gu Jiu said, meaning that the hatred and resentment are gone, but the embroidery thread will still be wrapped in blood that never disappears, and the hair is made from the dead. down, and this will always be there.

Master Liu's terrified expression added a bit of heartache, "If you had told me earlier, I wouldn't have spent so much money to take pictures."

"You won't believe me if I tell you." Master Quan said.

Tens of thousands of silver, Mr. Liu sighed heartbroken. He bought this screen to give it away to seek other developments, but no matter how good the screen is now, he dare not take things that are stained with dead people. I went to give it away, because it is bad luck and unlucky.

Master Liu blamed all his former idols, "Is Deng Yiyuan mentally ill? You don't need good embroidery thread, why use the blood of the dead? There is also the hair of a dead person. She doesn't feel afraid when she embroiders?"

There are two possibilities for this embroidery thread. One is that Deng Yiyuan didn't even know that the red color of the embroidery thread was not dyed with dye, but she just used hair embroidery on this basis. purchased.As for the other possibility, Deng Yiyuan did it on purpose. She purposely used embroidery threads dyed with the blood of those who died with resentment, and also specially used hair that hid resentment.

Just waiting for Gu Jiu and the others to check.

Unexpectedly, Master Liu threw the screen, which was still a treasure, to Gu Jiu and the others, and asked them to clean it up.Gu Jiu and the others arranged the formation, and spent the whole night cleaning the air from the screen, and then returned the screen to Master Liu in good condition.

Master Liu is currently in a state where he doesn't even want to look at the screen, but if he doesn't want to, he spent tens of thousands of taels of silver to take pictures of it, so he can only ask his servants to hold the screen comfortably.

Master Liu promised Gu Jiu not to bring this matter up. If he could, he hoped that the matter of the screen would not be leaked out, so he would still have a chance to send the screen out to do business. It's a pity.

When Master Liu left, he also bought a lot of amulets from Gu Jiu and Shao Yi back home, and the money he earned was enough for my younger brother to eat chicken for a month.

After that, they were invited by Master Quan to live in Master Quan's house.

Although Gu Jiu and Shao Yi were in charge of sending the male ghost away, and promised to repair the cemetery for the male ghost, so that the tomb robbers would not let the tomb robbers find it easily in the future, but Master Quan who was involved in it could not ignore it, so what materials were needed, The workers are all contributed by Master Quan.

Fortunately, the male ghost still remembered where his cemetery was, and luckily it was not far from here, otherwise he would not be able to go back for a while. While waiting for the cemetery to be repaired, Gu Jiu and Shao Yi found Deng Yiyuan's home.

Deng Yiyuan is over [-] years old, unmarried in this life, and did not live with her family when she came out of the palace. She bought another house by herself. Apart from a few servants who served her three meals a day, she also adopted more than a dozen orphan girls. Life, let them learn embroidery by the way, if there are suitable seedlings, they will be accepted as disciples.

Gu Jiu and Shao Yi arrived at Deng Yiyuan's residence. Through the wall, they heard the joyful laughter of many girls. Gu Jiu climbed the wall and took a peek. They were all young girls in their twenties and thirties, laughing and having fun in the yard.

After observing for a while, Gu Jiu fell back to the ground while no one noticed, patted the dust on his hands, and shook his head at Shao Yi: "I didn't find anything."

Then they looked around and found that everything was normal, and there was no Yin Qi, resentment or other dirty things in the yard, including the surrounding area.

"Let's bring a few little paper figurines over in the evening." Gu Jiu thought for a while and said.

Just as Shao Yi was about to nod his head, his ears moved suddenly, and he heard something. He pulled Gu Jiu back a few steps to hide, then poked his head again, and saw a little girl flashing out from the door. All her attention was on the door, as if In order to prevent others from finding out, he looked like he was sneaking away.

Seeing her sneaky appearance, Gu Jiu and Shao Yi followed her and decided to follow her to have a look.

The little girl ran away all the way, wandering around the city, not noticing that there was someone behind her, and finally she came to a messy street, and found a middle-aged beggar who was sleeping in a shady corner with no one there, He shook himself awake, "Uncle Feng, Uncle Feng, wake up!"

Gu Jiu and Shao Yi watched from the sidelines.

The beggar woke up from his deep sleep, saw the little girl, and wondered: "Big girl, it's such a hot day, you're not staying in Xiuzhuang, what do you want me for?"

Da Ya anxiously said: "Uncle Feng, Tiantian is gone."

"Tiantian? Didn't you say that she was sent to another embroidery shop?"

"No!" The big girl shook her head, "Master Deng told me so, but Tiantian and I have already agreed that no matter where we are separated in the future, we will try our best to contact each other. Tiantian has been away for a while now." It's been more than a month, and she said that she will send someone to bring me a letter when she arrives, but I haven't received any news from her yet."

"Big girl, could it be that you are overthinking?" Uncle Feng said, "That girl Tiantian has a lot of forgetfulness. Maybe it's because she came into contact with new people and things over there, so she didn't think of contacting you for a while..."

"No." Da Ya said firmly, "Although Tiantian is playful, I still understand her temperament. Uncle Feng, don't you find it strange? Pinger and Xiaomeng are also like Tiantian, and they clearly agreed Will be in touch forever, but once they leave, it’s like they’ve completely disappeared, there’s no news at all.”

"But Master Deng doesn't look like someone who would do such vicious things." Uncle Feng said in a low voice.

"Know people, know faces, but don't know hearts." Da Ya said, she stood up, took out a handkerchief from her bosom, and handed over a dozen copper coins wrapped in the handkerchief to Uncle Feng, "This is the money I have saved these days , Uncle Feng, hide it for me."

"What are you doing?" Uncle Feng didn't take the copper money.

Da Ya said: "When I have almost saved enough money, I will go to find Tiantian in person, otherwise I will not be able to feel at ease."

Uncle Feng seemed to want to persuade Da Ya, but seeing Da Ya's face was determined, she finally stopped talking and put the copper money into her chest, "Okay, Uncle Feng will keep it for you."

Da Ya just smiled and said: "I sneaked out, I have to go back, and I will come to you some other day."

Uncle Feng waved his hand, "Go back quickly."

Daya returned the same way, Gu Jiu and Shao Yi discussed a few words, and stopped Daya without hesitation.

Da Ya saw the two strange men, and took a step back vigilantly, "Who are you? What are you trying to do secretly?"

Seeing the stern look on her face, Gu Jiu tried her best to smile kindly, "Don't be afraid, we just happened to take a nap there to enjoy the cool." He pointed to the place where he hid just now.

Da Ya's complexion changed. Although she spoke to Uncle Feng just now in a low voice, the place Gu Jiu and the others pointed to was very close to them, so I couldn't be sure if the other party heard anything.

Gu Jiu said: "Don't be afraid, we heard a few words just now, are you looking for someone? We can tell fortunes and can help you."

Da Ya pursed her lips and did not speak, sarcasm flashed in her eyes, her eyes rolled around, as if she was thinking about how to escape from them.

Da Ya is very defensive, but she is still young. Gu Jiu guessed her birth history based on her appearance, "Your mother passed away when you were three years old, right? There are two older brothers on the top and one younger brother on the bottom. An elder brother died in infancy, separated from his family when he was six years old, and has been living in the market since then.”

Da Ya raised her head in shock, Gu Jiu's calculations were accurate, her mother died of illness when she was three years old, her second brother drowned when she was five years old, caught fish in the river, and when there was a famine in her hometown when she was six years old, his father replaced her. A bag of grain, she was originally bought back as a child bride, but the person who bought her was not lucky, all the family members died in a flash flood, she escaped by working outside, and then followed the fleeing people The refugees traveled from place to place and lived by begging.

Because she lived at the bottom, she saw a lot of low-level people of all kinds, and she had come into contact with a lot of charlatans, so when Gu Jiu said she could tell fortunes, she thought that the other party was also here to cheat money.

Seeing that he was very accurate, Da Ya said without hesitation: "How much do you count once? I don't have much money."

Gu Jiu said, "Do a good deed every day, and don't need money."

The big girl was suspicious, but quickly reported a horoscope, "Thank you in advance, you can help me figure it out, where is the owner of this horoscope now?"

Almost no need to calculate, Gu Jiu got the horoscope and read it once, and knew the result.

Gu Jiu looked at Da Ya who was full of hope, and said slowly, "His head fell to the ground."

"What do you mean?"

"Killed."
