I don't believe in ghosts today

The three of them set off from the small county town, transferred from a car to a train, and then to a car. After nearly two days of tossing, they finally arrived at the small mountain town by the Jialing River.The small cement buildings are built on the hillside, and the winding stone streets and alleys are smoothed by people's footsteps.

Uncle Xu went to the small shop to buy three bottles of water, and asked the boss, "Boss, is there a Goddess Duan in your town?"

"Why don't Goddess Duan know, she's very famous." The boss pointed out the door, there was a narrow stone road between the densely packed small buildings. "Go up, and you will be there in a few steps."

Although the distance is not far, it is full of narrow and steep stone steps.Zou Hao climbed to the top and looked back. Uncle Xu had only walked halfway with his cane.

At the end of the stone staircase is a small street with scattered shops on both sides.Suddenly there was a hot pot aroma in the air, Zou Hao turned his head and saw a small shop with four big handwritten characters on the signboard: Goddess Hot Pot.

"No way..." Zhou Yunling walked up panting, looking at the signboard, speechless. "Master, did we find the wrong place?"

"It's the address given by your master, it's not wrong. Let's go, let's go and have a look first." Li Yifan said.

Zou Hao and Zhou Yunling walked into the small shop, there was no one there, only a pot of bright red hot pot soup was rolling on the gas stove, and five sets of bowls and chopsticks were placed beside them.

"You three, why are you still in a daze, sit down and eat!" A plump middle-aged woman with wavy hair came out of the kitchen, holding a plate of hairy belly in one hand, and eating in the other. Holding the crispy sausage in one hand, he said in a rough voice like a man.

"The three of us?" Zou Hao pointed to himself, then to Zhou Yunling.

Goddess Duan's eyes fell behind Zou Hao's ears. "Isn't there a person lying on your shoulders?"

The three of them (and one Li Yifan) sat down around the round table, and Mistress Duan picked up a piece of hairy belly and put it into the pot. "Say, what's the matter?"

"Didn't Master tell you?" Li Yifan asked.

"I wish the old god told me that I have guests today, let me cook a hot pot for you." Mistress Duan picked up the tripe from the pot, put it into the oil dish in front of her, wrapped it with minced green onion and garlic, and walked towards the empty seat beside Zou Hao Cut a glance. "You came all the way here, didn't you just come to eat hot pot?"

"We do have some things to trouble you." Li Yifan said.

Goddess Duan stuffed her hairy belly into her mouth and flicked her chopsticks. "Don't be polite to me. It is my blessing to let the old god Zhu owe me favors."

After Li Yifan told Goddess Duan the whole incident, Uncle Xu finally finished climbing the stairs and walked into the store sweating profusely, out of breath: "Oh, I'm exhausted. "

Goddess Duan laughed out loud. "Blind Xu, come quickly, I haven't eaten a bite yet!"

"Sorceress Duan, tell me, what should we do now?" Zhou Yunling asked.

"We also want to set up a bureau to recruit the soul of Ah Cheng here, and invite you into the urn. Once Xiao Li's body is free, it can be returned to its original owner."

"Calling the soul?" Zhou Yunling was a little puzzled. "Will he come?"

"If we have what he cares most about, he will have to come." Mistress Duan took a piece of fish head out of the pot and said while eating. "So, the first step is to figure out who that Ah Sheng is, and what is the most important thing to him."

"Then, how do we find out?" The sorceress Duan spoke so eloquently that Zou Hao couldn't help joining the discussion.

"Now that the Internet is so developed, you can check it online and you will know. Why do you still ask me?" Goddess Duan asked back.

Zou Hao almost choked on the spicy oil, Li Yifan immediately pushed the mineral water on the table to his hand.

"Although it was introduced by the old god Zhu, well," Goddess Duan changed the subject, "If you want to ask me for help, you still have to put in a little work."

"What work?" Zhou Yunling asked.

Goddess Duan glanced over the faces of the three people (and one Li Yifan) one by one, and finally stretched out two fingers, pointing at Zhou Yunling and Xu Xiazi. "You two are going to work as small workers in my shop for a month."

"But, but, I can't do anything!" Zhou Yunling panicked.

Uncle Xu also looked helpless. "Sorceress Duan, you won't even let a blind man go?"

"It's just washing the dishes and pots, just rinse with water, it's very simple." Mistress Duan waved her hand. "You're welcome, everyone eat more!"

After eating the hot pot, the sky also darkened.Xu Xiazi and Zhou Yunling were sent to wash the dishes, while Zou Hao sat at the door of the small shop, looking down and fiddling with his mobile phone.

"Ah Cheng, Ah Cheng... Nothing can be found with this name." Zou Hao's Internet investigation reached a deadlock.

"Try logging into my email." Li Yifan whispered in his ear. "When Qin Yan came to the company to apply for a job, she sent me her resume. There should be a lot of information on it."

According to Li Yifan's instructions, Zou Hao opened Qin Yan's resume.Seeing the hometown written under the photo, Zou Hao couldn't help being a little surprised. "Qin Yan is actually from Chongqing, we really came to the right place."

"Master specially asked Goddess Duan to help us, probably at this level." Li Yifan said.

"Look at this." Zou Hao pointed to the column on the education background. The high school Qin Yan graduated from is in a county not far from this small town.

"Let's go and see together tomorrow morning."

Just as Li Yifan finished speaking, Goddess Duan came down from the stairs and shouted loudly: "You two come up quickly, and look at the room I prepared!"

Zou Hao went up the stairs, and a narrow corridor connected the four rooms.Goddess Duan pushed open one of the doors: "Come here!"

Zou Hao walked in and saw that the room was very small, except for the bed and a huge mirror on the wall, there was no other furniture.

"Xiao Li, are you satisfied?" Duan Duan asked.

"Very satisfied, thank you Goddess Duan." Li Yifan's voice was full of smiles.

"What are you talking about?" Zou Hao couldn't understand at all.This room was obviously worse than the dilapidated apartment he rented.

"Give me the money." Goddess Duan stretched out her hand to Zou Hao. "Five-star standard room, 500 yuan a night, isn't it expensive?"

"It's not expensive at all. Zou Hao, you put it on for me first."

After Li Yifan said so, Zou Hao had no choice but to transfer the money to Goddess Duan.Looking at this room with nothing but a bed in front of him, the millionaire Xiao Zou still felt very heartbroken.

At night, he slept drowsily, vaguely awakened by Zhou Yunling and Uncle Xu's footsteps going upstairs.Zou Hao opened his eyes, just in time to see the mirror on the end of the bed.In the reflection of the mirror, Li Yifan was sitting on the head of the bed, and he was leaning against Li Yifan's arms.

"I'm dreaming again..." Zou Hao rubbed his eyes, feeling drowsy.

"Haven't you heard of it?" Li Yifan said, biting his ear. "Hang a mirror in front of the bed, and after twelve o'clock at night, you can see ghosts."

"Oh, really..." Zou Hao was really sleepy, so he responded perfunctorily.

"Xiao Zou, don't sleep." Li Yifan's hand slid into the hem of his shirt, and he used his fingertips to gently outline the muscles. "Come and experience it, the feeling of ghost pressing the bed."
