Volume 2 Chapter 25 Being Stared at by a Ghost
After the ancestor left, Ding Ruiyun woke up half a day later. He looked very energetic, but his face was frighteningly pale. The paler the ghost's face, the healthier it is!
I remembered what she hadn't finished saying when she was taken away by the ghost, so I asked her what she saw later.
Ding Ruiyun said: "I saw Fan Xiaobing and Fu Xueman together, they were so happy looking at my body. Fan Xiaobing said that he asked Master Mao to help him exorcise the ghost and kill me in order to marry Fu Xueman. If I hadn't just died and was weak, I couldn't get close to their strong yang bodies, I would have eaten them both alive!"
I felt heavy in my heart after hearing this. First, I didn't expect Fu Xueman to be such a hateful girl, and second, there was another evil-minded master. I still can't figure it out. Since Fan Xiaobing killed Ding Ruiyun and removed the stumbling block, why didn't the two of them get married? Why did Fu Xueman have to get involved with me?
I asked Ding Ruiyun: "Where is your water cellar located?"
She said it was in the southwest corner. I nodded. That was the location of the five ghosts, usually the location of the toilet. Since the water cellar was built there, it must have been instructed by a famous person to arrange the five ghosts' transportation bureau. I looked at Ding Ruiyun again, thinking that Fan Xiaobing's real intention was probably not just to get rid of you, the stumbling block, and marry Fu Xueman, but to make you a scapegoat to help the person who exorcised the talisman pay off his debts, killing two birds with one stone!
This trip to the underworld was quite rewarding. I learned the true identity of Fu Xueman from Ding Ruiyun, and also found out the reason why Liu San and others' business failed. However, I still haven't figured out what kind of relationship Fan Xiaobing has with the underworld, and how he can use the ghost messenger to let Ding Ruiyun reincarnate. Of course, the purpose of this is not to let me get the secret from her. Once reincarnated, she will forget her past life, which is no different from killing someone to silence him.
Not long after, Shen Bing woke up. She moved hands and feet and found them to be quite agile. All her injuries had healed.
"Hey, country bumpkin, where is your great grandfather?" She looked left and right but couldn't find her ancestor, and her face was full of curiosity.
I said angrily, "Isn't that your ancestor grandpa? You've called him that before, why are you being so rude to him?"
Shen Bing glared and tilted her head and said, "What? I was just being polite."
"Is it polite to be called grandson's wife? Do you also accept it?"
Shen Bing's face flushed, and she pinched him and said, "It's not my turn to speak, so don't take advantage of me."
I was too embarrassed to make a bigger joke to Ding Ruiyun, and thought about going out to find Director Cui, thinking that he should have finished the meeting by now. When the ancestor went out, he disappeared into the wall, but I bumped back and got a big bump on my head.
Shen Bing took advantage of my misfortune and said I deserved it. I finally got my revenge for the car accident that left her with a big bump. I touched the bump on my head and smiled bitterly. What's the connection? You are an old dog who never forgets the food you have eaten for thousands of years.
At this moment, the old man's voice suddenly rang in my ears: "Xiaofeng, I forgot to tell you how to get out. Just recite 'heaven, earth, gods, people and ghosts' three times in your heart, and you can pass through the wall and get out." I almost fainted with anger. I should have said it earlier, otherwise I would have had a big bump on my head. The old man might have used a sound transmission note, and I couldn't reply. This thing is like a mobile phone in the world of the living, and it is probably only used by high-end ghosts.
I silently chanted the names of gods, ghosts, and humans three times in my mind, carefully reached out my hand and touched the wall, my arm came out, and then I dared to pass through the wall with my whole body.
I looked around and saw no ghosts. I ran to the management office. When I was about to reach the door of the management office, I suddenly found Tan Qing and the ghosts waiting outside the door. They knew I would come here and were waiting for me!
I hurriedly hid behind a corner of a house on the street, wondering how to lead them away? Just at this time, I saw Ma Dawen wandering out of the tavern again. Where did this guy get the money to buy drinks? Doesn't he only have the 100 million left? I slapped my forehead and remembered that he must have been among those who robbed money outside the bank.
I quietly slipped along the street behind Ma Dawen and dragged him into an alley. This guy was about to scream, but fortunately I reached out and covered his big mouth in time.
"It's me. I'm doing you a favor. This is my reward." I said as I took out the two remaining gold ingots from my pocket.
When the boy saw the gold ingot, he was more fond of it than seeing his own father. He sobered up about 70% of the way up. He snatched the gold ingot and rubbed it on his clothes to see its quality.
I whispered something in his ear and he nodded and said it was okay. This kid really has a talent for acting. He ran out of the alley in a panic and shouted to the alley across the street: "Xi Feng, don't run. It's me, Ma Dawen. Give me some money and I promise I won't report you..." He shouted and ran into the alley over there.
When Tan Qing and the others heard this, they immediately ran over and turned to chase Ma Dawen. I took the opportunity to run into the management office in one breath, panting and asking if the director was there. The two registrars pointed inside and made an annoyed expression. What does it mean? Is he doing something with a female ghost in there again?
I walked outside and coughed twice, and from inside I heard Director Cui shouting angrily, "Who the hell is coughing outside? Get away!"
Hearing that he was in a bad mood, I smiled and lifted the door curtain to go in. The old man was holding his head and leaning on the desk with a sad face. When he saw that it was me, he glared at me unhappily.
"What's wrong, Director? Who are you angry with?" I asked with a smile.
"It's all because of you. You robbed a money bank and destroyed a private ghost club on Xingui Street, and I was keeping you in the dark and protecting you. During the meeting, the director almost threw me into the frying pan." He said this without blushing. Damn it, I robbed the money bank, and you were not responsible for destroying that club, too? You were kept in the dark and tried to make yourself as clean as a white radish.
I held back my anger. After all, I had to rely on him for a pass. I said to him, "Director Cui, I did it all by myself, but I need to take care of it, right? How can I send the Yin-boosting pills if I don't go back?"
Director Cui frowned, looking very embarrassed. He was silent for a long time, and suddenly beckoned me. I walked to the desk and heard him whisper, "This is really not easy to handle. There is a ghost targeting you."
This time it was my turn to frown. From his tone, it didn't sound like he was extorting money, but rather genuine. I asked, "Is it an old ghost named Tan Qing?"
He shook his head. "No, that guy is not qualified. He is just a dog of Master Feng. Master Feng has set his sights on you. He is a very powerful noble in the underworld and has a good relationship with the Director. The Director said at the meeting that you should reincarnate as soon as possible to avoid causing trouble for the underworld. If you want to get a pass to return to the world, Master Feng must let you go."
The old man was honest with me and was a man of loyalty. It was not in vain that we went through so much hardship together in the underground meeting room.
I thought to myself that this was going to be a difficult situation. The reason he targeted me must be related to Ding Ruiyun, and Tan Qing was stirring up trouble. If I wanted him to let me go, I would have to wait for the sun to rise from the west. It seemed that the sun could not be seen in the underworld.
