Huang Quan's companion

Chapter 47

In early November, the two pedestrians and ghosts finally rushed back to the county seat.

It was only when He Tang saw the county stele that he realized that this place was called Jishan County, which was named after the Jishan Mountain to the north of the county seat.

When they entered the county town, there was scattered light snow and the sky was gray. There were few pedestrians in the county town, and even the salesman carrying a shoulder pole disappeared. Only a few horse-drawn carriages hurried across the road.

Lao Fang has not woken up for three days, Ruyi is in a hurry and asks the groom to drive to the hospital.

The doctor in the clinic still said that Lao Fang had contracted a cold, and the prescription prescribed by Yang Jinshu was the same as Yang Jinshu's. After seeing the medicine, Ruyi felt a little depressed, so she leaned against the bedside and began to cry.

The doctor suddenly panicked: "Madam, your husband is fine, just take a few doses of medicine and he will be fine, don't worry!"

Ruyi wiped her tears, and said: "Doctor, my husband has been like this for more than a month. I have seen many doctors along the way, and they all said that there is no problem, but my husband has always been ill, and recently he couldn't even wake up. This... ...How can this be good..."

Speaking of the emotional part, Ruyi lay on her husband's body and wailed loudly, startling the doctor and the drug boy beside her.

The doctor couldn't bear it, he turned his head and muttered with Yaotong for a while, and then hesitantly said: "This madam... I have a way, I don't know madam..."

When Ruyi heard this, she quickly raised her head, her eyes were red and swollen from crying, and she hurriedly asked, "Doctor, tell me."

"Madam has been away from the county for several months. I'm afraid I don't know the current situation in Jishan County... Did you find that there are few pedestrians on the road along the way?"

Ruyi nodded: "But... isn't it because of the snow?"

"Madam's words are wrong. Today there is only light snow outside, how can it be so deserted." The doctor sighed and said, "Madam doesn't know something. It's hard to live in Jishan County now!"

Ruyi wiped her tears, stood up slowly, and asked, "Doctor, what do you mean?"

The doctor looked around, ordered Yaotong to close the window, and then said: "Now this Jishan County is haunted by ghosts every day, and we can't live there anymore!"

"how do I say this?"

"Ma'am, have you ever heard that the Zhu family in the county is haunted by ghosts?"

Ruyi nodded hesitantly, and asked, "Didn't you say that the Taoist priests from Qinglian Temple were invited to capture the ghost?"

"Hey, Qinglian Temple only arrested his son with a foreign surname who died two years ago! After those Taoist priests left, something happened to Zhu's family again!"

Ruyi didn't know about Mrs. Seven, nor Zhu Xiaowu's real identity, so she hurriedly asked, "What's the matter?"

The doctor then told the ins and outs of the matter.

Yang Jinshu followed Ruyi and the others all the time, and now he also listened to the whole matter.

It turned out that after Qinglian Temple captured He Tang, the Zhu family locked up Mrs. Seven, and within a few days, they invited another group of masters to look for Zhu Xiaowu's trace. They said that Zhu Xiaowu had been captured by He Tang Killed to death, thrown in a mass grave and eaten by wild dogs.Zhu's family began to arrange Zhu Xiaowu's funeral, and Mrs. Seven was possessed by an evil spirit, she became mad, scratched Mrs. Liu's face, and tried to kill someone. The Zhu family had no choice but to ask the master to do it. The evil spirit on Madam's body was so powerful that it actually killed Madam Seven and dozens of people from Zhu's family.

Although these words are nonsense, the general process is not different from what Seventh Madam said.

After the tragedy happened, only a few wives and servants left in the Zhu family escaped the catastrophe by chance, while the eldest wife of the Zhu family, the master of the Zhu family, and many servants and servants all died unexpectedly.People from the county government came to investigate the case, and learned that the murderer was the Seventh Lady who was possessed by the evil spirits, and ordered the whole city to arrest him. However, the government officials found the body of the Seventh Lady in the mass grave. The death was miserable, and it was probably the evil spirits who backfired on her.

The case was settled, and the Zhu family fled in fright. Only the sixth lady was left, and led a group of servants to reorganize the Zhu family.

"The sixth lady is not an ordinary person. She was disfigured, and such a tragedy happened to the Zhu family. She is a girl, but she can manage the huge Zhu family. It's amazing!" The doctor boasted first. In a word, he changed the subject and whispered, "I just heard that the Sixth Madam is fierce, and the servants are very afraid of her, saying that she is also possessed by evil spirits..."

He Tang sneered in the umbrella: "Where is she possessed by evil spirits? She is much more powerful than evil spirits!"

Yang Jinshu tapped on the handle of the umbrella to signal him to keep quiet.

The doctor continued: "We also heard that the injury on the sixth lady's face... seems to have disappeared..."

Yang Jinshu's pupils shrank, his expression turned a little cold.

If a mortal is disfigured, how can he get better easily?Even if the injury on Mrs. Six's face is treated by a famous doctor, it will take time for the scabs to heal and return to smoothness. It has only been two months now, how can it be healed?

Ruyi was also surprised, and whispered, "This...it seems unlikely..."

Yaotong interrupted suddenly: "Someone saw her locking herself in Zhu's ancestral hall at night, and there were strange noises from that ancestral hall every night. I heard someone said that it was the sixth lady paying homage to the ghost!"

The doctor quickly stopped him: "What nonsense are you talking about!"

"I'm not talking nonsense, everyone has seen it! Mrs. Liu of the Zhu family sends a large carload of ingots, paper, money, and white candles to Zhu's house every day. The Zhu family is all buried in the Zhu family's ancestral tomb. She bought so many things to pay homage at home. who?"

Ruyi understands: "The ancestral hall of the Zhu family also has memorial tablets, and it is not too much to offer sacrifices every day."

Yaotong snorted and retorted: "Ordinary sacrifices, just put some melons and fruits and snacks, and the Zhu family also offered livestock..."

"Shut up!" The doctor stopped loudly, staring at the medicine boy and said, "Who are you listening to gossip? You don't recognize herbs all day long, but you can hear all the gossip!"

The drug boy was taught a lesson, stepped back aggrievedly, and stood aside, not daring to interrupt anymore.

The doctor lowered his voice and said to Ruyi: "Ma'am, we are not very clear about the Zhu family's affairs, but because too many people died in his family, and Jishan County has been haunted by ghosts for the past two years, many people in the county have moved out. Well, the family who kept it also invited all kinds of experts to catch ghosts. What's more, it is also useful to have a house full of gods and Buddhas. I think your husband may be infected with some kind of unclean spirit, but It doesn't look serious, you can ask an expert to exorcise the evil spirits, maybe your husband will get better in a few days."

"An expert?" Ruyi was at a loss, "I...I don't know any expert...Doctor, do you have a suitable candidate?"

"This... There are many families in the county who have high-level people. If Madam wants to invite me, I can find someone to help you find out a thing or two."

Ruyi nodded quickly: "Okay! Please trouble the doctor!"

The doctor waved his hands again and again, and still told her not to slack off to decoct Lao Fang to treat his illness, and told her not to stay in the county town, lest her soul be taken away by the starving ghosts.Ruyi was also afraid that something would happen to Lao Fang and Xiao Wu, so she left her home address and left.

They live in the outskirts of the city, although it is farther away, it is much cleaner than the county town, and there are few evil ghosts to come and go.

There was no one living in the house for several months, so Ruyi gave the groom some extra money, asked him to help tidy up the house, settled the money, and sent him out.The groom saw a woman with a sick husband and a child, and felt compassion for her. He helped her light a fire, boil hot water, and warm the house. under the shed.

Thank you very much from Ruyi, the groom sighed, put his coat together and said: "I can't go in this horrible weather, I might as well keep it for the winter, if there is business coming, I will drive away. If Madam needs to drive to the county for a few days Big Brother, you can just call me for medical treatment. However, you have to pay more for the evil in this place..."

"Brother, thank you very much... If you don't mind, I still have an empty room in my house with complete bedding, but I haven't returned for a long time, I'm afraid it's a bit moldy..."

"Hey, it's okay, as long as it works, then... I'll bother Madam!" The groom scratched his head, feeling a little uncomfortable, and asked again, "That... madam... your dinner..."

"Oh... are you hungry? I'm going to do it right now..." Ruyi had just taken two steps, and felt a little embarrassed when she remembered that she didn't buy food at home.

"I don't choose, you can do whatever you want!"

Ruyi told Zhu Xiaowu to help look after Lao Fang, and went to the cellar to find ingredients for cooking.Fortunately, they live in a remote place, the neighbors have been helping to take care of them, there are no thieves in the house, and there is not much food for the winter.The neighbor heard the noise and came to check, and saw that they had come back, chattered happily for a while, and brought a basket of steamed buns and half a pork leg from his home, saying it was a gift for them for the New Year.

After Ruyi thanked them, she also moved a chicken from the cellar as a gift in return, thanking them for their daily care.

She is good at cooking. She made porridge for dinner, stewed a pot of vegetables with pork leg, cabbage, frozen tofu and beans, served with steamed buns from neighbors and pickled cucumbers at home, which satisfied the groom and Zhu Xiaowu. Praise again and again.

Ruyi finally had a smile on her face, but when she thought of Lao Fang, the smile quickly collapsed.

After Zhu Xiaowu and the groom both fell asleep, Ruyi put on a thick cloak, put the lampshade on the candlestick, went out under the light snow, went around to a deserted place, and whispered: "Madam? Madam... …Are you there?"

Wan Niang had been waiting for a long time, she appeared from the shadows and greeted her, "Ruyi."

When Ruyi saw her, she immediately knelt down, making two dents in the snow with her knees.She raised her face, the blue and black eyes due to fatigue were clearly visible, her lips were white, and she pleaded tremblingly: "Madam... Ruyi has never asked Madam anything, and now... now there is no other way, please Madam Ruyi! "

After speaking, he leaned over and kowtowed.

Wan Niang hurriedly stopped her, and said anxiously: "Ruyi! What are you doing! The ground is covered with snow, it's so cold to kneel, get up!"

Ruyi refused to get up, with tears in her eyes, she grabbed her arm and begged, "Ma'am... I am afraid that Lao Fang has also... been disturbed by evil spirits, you... you have great powers, can you save him? Mr. Yang Daoist Min is very knowledgeable and powerful, so he must have a solution! Can you...can you speak for Ruyi and ask for a favor for Ruyi?"

"Ruyi, get up!" Wan Niang pulled her up and said angrily, "If I can help, I still need you to speak? Take it easy and listen to us."

Ruyi sobbed and looked at her, apparently not listening.

Wan Niang had no choice but to grit her teeth and knocked her out.

He Tang jumped out from behind and asked, "Miss Wan, what are you going to do?"

"She is not awake now, I entrusted her with a dream..." Wan Niang sighed, "I was the one who got them involved, and we must not let them have trouble."

He Tang was a little worried: "Can you do it?"

"It's okay, I'll have a good chat with her in her dream." Wan Niang calmed down, looked at him and said, "You and Jin Shu go back to find out if there are any ancient books that can be used. It's useless, I don't want Ruyi's disease to go to the doctor indiscriminately."

"Okay, let's go back right away, you should be more careful."

He Tang went to find Yang Jinshu, and together they went to the back of Yang's house. Wan Niang helped Ruyi into the house to take care of her to lie down, covered her with a quilt, and stood aside, weaving dreams quietly.It took more than two hours to cast this spell, and Ruyi still cried in her dream, telling her how well Lao Fang treated her, and begging Wan Niang to save Lao Fang...

Wan Niang finally escaped from Ruyi's dream, and when she opened her eyes, she saw Shi Tianning standing aside, looking at her quietly.

"You didn't go back?" Wan Niang was surprised.

Shi Tianning glanced at her lightly: "I will protect you."

Wan Niang suddenly felt warm.

Although Ruyi's house lives far away, it is a bit desolate after all. If the ghosts who come and go come in to disturb her out of curiosity, she might be injured in the middle of weaving her dream.Although it can be restored to normal after a period of recuperation, Shi Tianjing's quiet standing aside saves her from trouble.

This man always has no virtue in his mouth, but his actions are extremely appropriate.
