Male Meng Po

Chapter 3 The Red Line

The girl's face was already pale, she looked at the 'waiter' in front of her in horror, her lips trembling uncontrollably, and after the waiter put the white water on the table and left erratically, the girl realized that her back was already covered with pain. layer of cold sweat.

She wanted to stand up, but her legs were already weak.

Moon Banqi: "Don't be nervous. Xiaobai just came here yesterday, and I'm just waiting for the first seven to go home and take a look, and I'm going to reincarnate."

In other words, no harm.

These words did not comfort the girl, she felt even more terrified.

"Really, really, really..." The girl's hands were shaking.

"It's just a ghost." Yue Banqi said, stuffing the water glass on the table into the girl's outstretched hand.

The girl seemed to have calmed down a little, and took advantage of the opportunity to hold the water glass and pour it into her mouth suddenly. After drinking it, she remembered that the glass of water was brought by that ghost, and almost threw the glass away.

Yuebanqi: "Do you have any ghosts that you miss?"

The girl was taken aback: "What?"

Moon Banqi: "This is the Wangxiang Terrace, the connecting point between the Yang world and the underworld. The living people who can come here are all people who have entanglements or deep concerns with the underworld."

The girl came back to her senses, looked down at the cup in her hand, then suddenly raised her head after a while, and asked curiously, "You said you were Po Meng, is that true?"

"...my name is Meng Ye." Yue Banqi replied, "My yin job is Meng Po."

Girl: "Are you a girl?"

Moon Half Seven: "Male. Newly appointed recently."

The girl opened her mouth wide in surprise: "Can you still change positions?"

Moon Half Seven: "..."

Is the point here?

Seeing that Yue Banqi looked at her silently, the girl also felt that her question just now was a bit silly, she chuckled, lowered her head again, slowly rubbing her fingers against the cold cup in her hand, and said after a while: "Actually, I'm fine too. The person I really want to see. There is one person who is involved."

Yue Banqi listened to her quietly.

"Do you know... ghost marriage?"

Yue Banqi didn't know about his own memory in the past, but Yue Banqi remembered such things clearly in his mind.

Ghost marriage has existed since ancient times. It was originally intended to make the deceased not alone in the ground. Some people thought that the appearance of a lonely grave would affect Feng Shui, so they held a ghost marriage ceremony for two dead ghosts and then buried them together.

This is understandable.

Ghost marriage was once very popular in a certain period.

It's not a bad thing for the underworld. There are many men and women who have been married in the underworld and think that each other is good after meeting in the underworld. Before the day of reincarnation, they stay together for a period of time in the underworld.

It doesn't matter even if they don't get along, when the time for reincarnation comes, the fate will naturally be broken.

However, it is not a good thing for the living to marry the dead.

Once a person dies, he should lose contact with Yang, and the so-called first seven means to go to Yang to have a last look.But at this time, he suddenly married someone in the yang world, that is, he has a little concern for the yang world. If the other person who is married to the ghost does not come to the underworld for a long time, the ghost who is married to the ghost will not want to reincarnate, and some will even stay in the underworld. Hanging around people in the Yang Realm is a waste to everyone.

Yue Banqi squinted his eyes to look closely at the girl, and sure enough, he saw a dark shadow wrapping around the girl, flickering.

Yue Banqi said: "This ghost marriage has not yet been concluded?"

The girl nodded: "I'm only engaged and engaged, and the auspicious day hasn't arrived yet." After she finished speaking, she laughed at herself again, even getting married depends on the date.

She came out today because the dark marriage made her feel upset, so she came out for a walk, and ended up here.

"My name is Li Qianqian." The girl smiled.

"My name is Yuebanqi."

The girl was startled: "You still have a name?"

Seventh day of the month: ...

Why can't there be!

Li Qianqian apologized, "Sorry, I always thought Po Meng was the name..."

Yue Banqi said: "The person who takes office is called Po Meng."

The previous one was born in the Western Han Dynasty. At that time, women did not have serious names, and she never married. She practiced until she was in her 80s. Because of her surname, she was also called Meng Po during her lifetime.

The people who deliver soup by the Naihe bridge that Yangjian often mentions are mostly about her.

It is also said that Meng Po is a stunning beauty, referring to the second Meng Jiangnv.

"Ghost marriages are not good for you. In the past, there were living people who married ghosts. On the day of the burial, the married women would be buried alive together." Yue Banqi said in a flat tone.

Li Qianqian sneered and said, "Do they still want to bury me alive? I don't know when you will take over as Po Meng. Now it's a society ruled by law."

Yue Banqi shook his head: "Even if you are not buried alive, your lifespan will be affected. Do you want to make this marriage?"

"Of course I don't want to! But what can I do!" Li Qianqian was very excited, "My hometown is in the countryside, and I don't have much money! If I don't sell me, who will give me 10 yuan for nothing? My elder brother is almost thirty, and his girlfriend talks about it. not on..."

Her mother is even considering saving 3 yuan to buy a wife.Of course it's against the law.

Although she is so neatly dressed, the materials are not very good, all of them are street goods.

Part of the money from part-time jobs is sent to the family, and there is not much left for myself.

For girls in their twenties, the only hobby is to find some good-looking clothes and cosmetics in street stalls.

Walking into this teahouse was simply a whim, and I was already in the shop when I came back to my senses.

"10 yuan, a ceremony, everyone thinks it's worth it." Li Qianqian whispered.

Even she thought so herself.

10 yuan is enough to build a house in my hometown and find a wife for my elder brother.

As for her, she can send less money to her family in the future, and she will naturally be more relaxed with the 10 yuan.

Good for everyone.

Li Qianqian raised her head and asked, "Master Meng."

"My name is Master Meng."

"Uh...Master Meng, will there be any harm if I get married in the dark?"

Yue Banqi thought: "There will be bad luck."

Li Qianqian: "Except for bad luck?"

Yue Banqi: "Others are not certain, some people will lose their lifespan. Some people will encounter disasters, and some..."

Yue Banqi frowned and thought, as if something flashed through his mind, but unfortunately he didn't catch it.

Li Qianqian: "It's okay."

Yuebanqi: "It's okay?"

Li Qianqian nodded heavily: "Master Meng, do you know what is the scariest thing in this world?"

Yue Banqi wondered, "For a stranger, it's death."

Li Qianqian shook her head: "There is no money."

Yuebanqi didn't understand.

Li Qianqian: "If you don't have money, you have nothing. When I was young, I couldn't eat candy, and when I grew up, I couldn't afford beautiful clothes. I don't have the confidence to walk on the street, and I feel inferior wherever I stand. When your friends are by your side When talking about what cosmetics are useful, you can only laugh on the sidelines, because you have never seen what they said. There are places where you don’t even have the courage to step in. Master Meng, this is a life without money. I Now, I'm desperately trying to make myself rich."

However, parents favor sons over daughters, drop out of school when they are young, and send home any money they earn from part-time jobs, saving it for the elder brother to be his wife.

The girl who grew up being scolded by her parents didn't have much courage to resist at this time.

It's not that 10 yuan can't be saved, but how many years will it take her to save it? Will her elder brother still be an old bachelor when he is 40 years old?Or sell her to other old bachelors for gift money?

No, her future must not be like this.Compared with marrying someone you don't like, it's much more cost-effective to get married and get a lot of money just by going through a procedure.

"When my eldest brother gets married and has a wife, I don't have to send so much money. I save money for myself, and then find a boyfriend and build my own home." Li Qianqian smiled sweetly, full of hope for the future.

And that smile was being surrounded and swallowed by the gradually thickening black mist.

Yue Banqi said: "Who is the one who married you?"

Li Qianqian lowered her head and thought, "I only remember that he came from the village next door. But he has already made a lot of money doing business outside, and then he thought of marrying his younger brother to the ghost, saying that he can leave safely. His name seems to be You Tianren. Unexpectedly The one who died has been dead for four or five years."

Yue Banqi murmured this name, it was very strange, it was not in the list of recent reincarnations, presumably either he did not accept the trial, or he was punished in hell.

Otherwise, even if he is reincarnated as a pig, he still has to walk on his bridge of Naihe.

Is it a ghost outside?

This is really rare. Judge Cui once proudly mentioned to him that the business of black and white impermanence has been doing very well recently, and there are not many lonely ghosts in Yangjie.

What a coincidence, he came here with a stranger who was married to a lonely ghost.

"I've finished drinking the water, and I've had enough rest. Thank you, Mr. Meng." Li Qianqian stood up and smiled, before walking out of the shop.

Seeing this, Yue Banqi immediately ran after her, stroked her shoulder lightly, grabbed a handful of black mist in his hand, and said, "At this time, seven days later, come here again."

Li Qianqian: "Why?"

Yue Banqi smiled and said, "I invite you to drink tea."

Li Qianqian said: "But..."

Yue Banqi: "Don't worry, this is Wangxiang Terrace, whether it's a stranger or a ghost, it's the safest here."

Li Qianqian hesitated, "Okay, if I still have time."

Yue Banqi watched him leave the store, then lowered his head to look at the dishonest black mist in his hand.

It's not just Yin Qi, it also contains resentment.

Really suspicious.

"Go and call Brother Zhong..."

Before Yue Banqi could finish speaking, the curtain behind him was lifted, and a big man with iron face and curly temples came out, sat down on the chair, and said loudly: "Fat Qi, come on, have a big bowl of tea Come on, I want to be cold, I am thirsty."

Yue Banqi almost didn't stuff this cloud of black mist into the mouth of the visitor.

Who is Fat Seven!

Call Mengye!

The author has something to say: Yuebanqi: I am Lord Meng, and my name is Yuebanqi.Not Fat Seven.

Zhong Kui: Doesn't a month plus half make you fat?

Moon Half Seven: What simplified characters do people born in the early Tang Dynasty learn?

Zhong Kui: Isn’t the addition of traditional Chinese characters fat?

Moon Banqi: ...Yes.
