Bend that ghost

Lu Li didn't tell Wen Zhijiang, but he was also worried and jealous.Gu Xiu knew the young master earlier than him. If he only liked this person all these years, then he would also sincerely admire him.

But he knows Wen Zhijiang better. His young master has never had anyone around him for so many years. Once such a person talks about feelings, he will really be so serious all his life.

So he is willing to trust Wen Zhijiang, give him his own space, and let him solve his own affairs.

Wen Zhijiang did not hide the conversation he had with Gu Xiu just now, and he also needed someone to help analyze it.He always felt that Gu Xiu had a sense of familiarity, but thinking about how many years they had known each other, it was normal to feel familiar.

But that faint sense of disobedience always made him feel uncomfortable.

Is it really because we haven't seen each other for so long that we have this familiar yet strange feeling?

"Since it's hard to judge whether it's true or false, then leave him alone." Lu Li patted Wen Zhijiang's back as if to comfort a child, his eyes were cold, and he said mockingly, "Since Li Ming wants a temporary truce, let's go first." Maoshan asks for an explanation, digging the Wen family's ancestral grave can't just let them get away with it so easily."

Wen Zhijiang pondered for a while, nodded and said, "That's fine, but I want to go to the ghost market tomorrow."

"Then go, but why? Why don't you just ask Song Lin if you have anything to do?" Lu Li was a little surprised. It's normal for the headmaster of Yinshan to recruit ghosts, but it's rare to come to find them in person.

Wen Zhijiang hesitated for a moment, then briefly mentioned Du Xian's matter, and finally said: "So I want to confirm, so as not to be embarrassing."

"I'm just saying that Du Xian is not what he appears to be at all." Lu Li was a little surprised, and laughed, "Looks like a scholar, look, what is he doing here? He asked the girl from the brothel to elope, and even killed the girl , tsk tsk, since ancient times, scholars are so ruthless, poor girl is really a confidante."

Wen Zhijiang was helpless, Lu Li's mouth was so pissed off, it was so cheap.

But no matter how unfeeling he said, he would still do everything well in silence.

After all, Lu Li is a mortal who needs to rest, and Wen Zhijiang's living habits are becoming more and more like a living person, and the two of them hugged each other for a while and fell asleep.

In the early morning of the next day, the sky was still dark.

Wen Zhijiang and Lu Li, who got up early, went out after a simple tidying up, walked through the crossroads into the ghost market, and entered the teahouse called Tianxiang Guose.

It was probably because it was almost dawn. Although the ghost market was not daylight, there was still no one in the store, so the first two customers were welcomed.

One of the two was dressed in a pure black knee-length windbreaker, tall and tall, with open and wanton smiles on the corners of their lips.Although the other one is wearing a camel coat in warm colors, the brows are cold and elegant like the breeze and the moon.

Standing together, the two of them are extremely suitable, and there is no slight ambiguity between the two men.

The visitors were naturally Lu Li and Wen Zhijiang.

The charming proprietress came out to greet her in person. Her exquisite figure was wrapped in a scarlet cheongsam, embroidered with patterns of flowers blooming and wealth.

The proprietress Mudan led the two of them into the box, made hot tea herself, and smiled charmingly: "Why are you free to come today?"

"Naturally, I'm thinking about Miss Peony's cup of tea." Lu Li smiled authentically, and complimented, "Miss Peony's tea art is rare."

Mudan naturally heard that Lu Li was talking nicely, and the smile on her face became brighter, but she said heartily, "Mr. Lu has a good eye, and my tea art is not inferior to those tea masters back then."

Wen Zhijiang said seemingly unintentionally: "Where did Miss Mudan learn from?"

The smile on Mudan's face remained unchanged, but there was a touch of complexity in her eyes, her jade finger twisted the handkerchief and nodded it on her lips, and said with a smile: "Where is the master, the servant's family is just a woman with a windmill, this skill of making tea... It's nothing more than trying to please the benefactor, and you can't get on the stage."

As a woman in the dust, Wen Zhijiang keenly grasped the point, exchanged a glance with Lu Li, and said again: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to offend, but with her looks, she must be considered a peerless beauty at that time."

Mudan laughed out loud, and said quite rejoicingly: "Where is it, but I'm glad that I died early. If it was a few years later, those Japanese devils came in, I'm afraid I wouldn't even die."

The formula is successful.

Before the Anti-Japanese War, the time was almost right, and Wen Zhijiang was almost sure at this time that this peony was Du Xian's little lover who couldn't let go of him until he died and dared not come to see him.

Before Wen Zhijiang could speak, Mudan said with a smile again: "I just don't know what Master Wen said to the slave family, and why?"

Seeing Wen Zhijiang this time is obviously different from the previous few times. In the past few times, he could still feel the Yin Qi in Wen Zhijiang's body, but now Wen Zhijiang is sitting in front of him, and Mudan can't feel that there is a ghost sitting in front of him at all.

He is the head teacher of Yinshan, but he went to chat in her shop when he had nothing to do. Mudan would never think that Master Wen came here because of her face, after all... gender does not meet his requirements, let alone he has a boyfriend.

If it wasn't that Wen Zhijiang was too idle, then Wen Zhijiang had something to say.

After chatting for a long time, Mudan also found out that Wen Zhijiang was testing her past intentionally or unintentionally. Although most of those past events were unbearable to look back on, why should people care if they died once?Since Wen Zhijiang wants to ask, it's okay for her to just talk.

Wen Zhijiang closed his eyes, stretched out his hand and tugged at the corner of Lu Li's clothes under the table - you still don't want to help?

Lu Li squinted at Wen Zhijiang, who pursed his lips and pretended to be calm, and smoothed things over with a smile: "Miss Peony, don't get me wrong, we have no malicious intentions, but now we can't be called Young Master Wen, Zhijiang is already the head teacher of Yinshan recognized by the ancestors of Yinshan. gone."

Mudan was a little surprised. Not everyone can be the Headmaster of Yinshan Mountain. It is said that he has to go to Wen's Ancestral Hall to worship and pass it on.The previous Wen Zhijiang was at most the young master of Yinshan Mountain, and he was called Zhangjiao just now with respect, but now it seems that the word Zhangjiao is worthy of the name.

She wasn't stupid, she knew that Lu Li was protecting Wen Zhijiang, so she told him cryptically while changing the subject, this is our Yinshan Headmaster, if you ask, just ask, don't embarrass him.

For the young couple at the stall, Mudan couldn't laugh or cry, and simply followed Lu Li's words, "My eyesight is stupid, and I will have to rely on the master to teach me a lot in the future."

"Severe words." Wen Zhijiang said lightly, just about to get up to say goodbye, and go back to let Du Xian come over to see his lover, but before he could get up, Song Lin shouted hurriedly from outside: "Peony! Peony! You What?! Come on!"

Wen Zhijiang was startled, Song Lin was always steady, so he lost his composure, what happened?Immediately, someone shook hands, looked up to see Lu Li's soothing eyes, and saw him turn his head to look at Mudan and said, "Miss Mudan, ask Song Lin to come over and say, don't make noise outside."

Mudan understood, and went out immediately, but when she came back after a while, she brought back not only Song Lin alone, but also another man in a neat suit, who was exactly Tangtang, the ghost who had met Wen Zhijiang once.

Seeing Wen Zhijiang and Lu Li, Song Lin had the urge to weep with joy, and quickly said, "It's easy to say that you two are here, I was thinking about talking to Mudan to find you two just now."

"Sit down and talk, sit down and talk." Lu Li knocked on the table, Song Linyi, who has been dead for many years, wouldn't be so flustered, Lu Li felt that something might be wrong, turned to Tang Tang and said, "Why did you come out?" ? Have all those ghosts in your underworld been resolved? Normal operations have resumed?"

Tang Tang was silent for a moment, and said deeply: "You think too much of us, there is really no good way for so many ghosts for a while, and now you can't even supply Mengpo soup. But you can't let the new dead ghosts stay in the mortal world. In the meantime, there are still ghost messengers who come out to lock up souls, and those who are really too busy will stay in the ghost market for a while."

"...All right." Lu Li looked away disappointed, "Tell me, what's going on? You two are over 1000 years old together, so what happened to your panic?"

"There are a lot of ghosts, but they are gone." Song Lin said in a deep voice, with a serious expression on his face, "Many new dead ghosts have disappeared in the ghost market recently. Originally, the new dead ghosts can't withstand the yang energy and don't know how to hide. It is possible for the new dead ghosts to be scattered. But in The ghost market doesn’t have anything against ghosts, and they can’t disappear...there are so many of them.”

"Are all the ghosts who disappeared?" Wen Zhijiang frowned. If many ghosts disappeared at once, it was no small matter.

Maybe someone is catching ghosts and refining alchemy or practicing, and they have the audacity to ask for a lot of money at once.

Song Lin was startled, lowered his head as if recalling, the more he thought about it, the more he frowned. After a while, he let out a breath, and said slowly: "Not necessarily..."

Seeing Song Lin's reaction, Mudan seemed to remember something, frowned slightly, and said in a low voice, "Even if the old ghost disappears, it won't attract attention. After all, ghosts will die sooner or later. If it is gone, it will only be regarded as the end of Yinshou. Thinking about it now... It seems that many old ghosts have disappeared these days."

"You noticed it too?" Song Lin turned his head to look at Peony, his face was a little ugly, "I really didn't notice the disappearance of old ghosts before, if it weren't for the disappearance of all new dead ghosts this time, I'm afraid no one would have noticed."

"Yes, I haven't seen the old man Zhu who often comes to drink tea in the store for a few days, I'm afraid it's also..." Mudan didn't continue, but the result can be imagined.

The expressions of the people present became ugly, Tang Tang pushed his glasses again, and said through gritted teeth: "Who is not afraid of death and dares to rob ghosts from our underworld?! Don't let me find him, or just throw him into the frying pan!"

Wen Zhijiang glanced at Tang Tang in amazement, thinking that wearing a suit had an abstinence aura, but the two times he met with Tang Tang had nothing to do with abstinence, instead he was like a dynamite bag, ready to explode as soon as he said it.

Lu Li said coolly, "Don't think about blowing up ghosts, but think about who did it."

After finishing speaking, he looked at Song Lin and Mudan again, and asked, "The new dead ghost or the old ghost, ghosts are all lost in the ghost market, didn't you two notice it at all?"

Song Lin and Mudan looked at each other and smiled wryly, they both saw the fear in each other's eyes.

Although the ghost market is not owned by the two of them, there are people who commit crimes in the ghost market. If those old ghosts really didn't die because of the end of their Yin life, then there are people who can kill ghosts in the ghost market as if they were in the land of no one.

Just thinking about it makes people shudder, will they be wiped out without anyone noticing? ?
