Chapter 30: Blocking the Road

It wasn't loud, but to me, it sounded like a thunderbolt ringing in my ears.

Following the sound, I saw a lean old man coming out of the shadows.

The old man was dressed cleanly and neatly, like a village cadre in the early years. It's just a pair of fine eyes that flicker, and it looks very annoying.

When I saw this old man, I felt a sudden shock in my heart.

When I first met Sanglan, I went to a place called 'Huaiyuan Village' to avoid the rain.

Later, I learned that it was a dream of Nanke under the hundred-year-old locust tree.

Because of this experience, I don't think it's very strange to the old man that he said 'Chenghe Town', you must know that the cemetery is next to the moat.

What makes me feel uncertain is that this old man actually said that the three of us are 'strangers' who came beyond yin and yang!

This makes me wonder the identity of the old man, is he just like us, not of this world?

You must know that I am not the first one to go to the underworld to do things in the underworld, and many predecessors of yin and yang have such magical powers.

Soon, the idea was dismissed by me.

Because, I found that under the reflection of the ghost fire, there was a vague shadow at the feet of this old man.

It is said that in such a place, in such a dim and chaotic situation, it is rare to care about shadows. However, because of my previous experience in the Di family's old house, I know that shadows can be used as a standard for judging things. In a world that does not belong to the living, there is no shadow of the living, but the local 'natives' who have a shadow.

This old man is not a human, he is a ghost. He can tell us where we come from in one word, and I don't think it's an ordinary ghost, but an old ghost for a certain number of years.

I calmed down and hugged my fist at the old ghost, "Hello, what is the old gentleman's name?" ”

The old ghost smiled slightly, and said simply: "I am a native of this Chenghe Town, a local. ”

Seeing that he didn't mean to ask, I naturally wouldn't take the initiative to bring up such a sensitive topic as 'where we came from'.

Don't talk about this, there seems to be no side topic between this old man who seems to have appeared out of thin air.

Sun Tuzi estimated that he saw that this old ghost was quite kind, and couldn't help but blurt out:

"Old man, have you ever seen a bearded man come here?"

"Bearded?" The old ghost's eyes narrowed, his eyes slowly rolled, and he suddenly sighed, "Alas, it turns out that you are here to find him." I've seen that beard before, but now...... Alas, I am afraid that even if you find him, you will not be able to take him back. ”

"Old man, have you really seen him? Where is he? Where did it go? Sun Lu asked anxiously.

The old ghost shook his head and sighed again, and then spoke, but the words were not tasteful:

"You have come all the way to find people, and it is said that I should be kind to others, but people live in the world, and they have to work hard for their livelihood, so why not be the ghost of the world? I really can't pull away. ”

Sun Tuzi is not a fool, seeing that he has something to say, he glanced into the pockets of several of us as he spoke, couldn't help but roll his eyes, and whispered to me:

"How can this ghost in the underworld be more realistic than a living person? This clearly shows that you have to take money to do things. ”

"You talk a lot!" I glared at him.

Sun Lu pursed his lips and asked a little unconfidently: "Then what should we do now?" Ignore him and find someone by yourself? ”

I shook my head secretly, and said in my heart: Since this old ghost has the ability to see through our way at a glance, how can he easily dismiss it. Even if we don't want him to 'help', we don't dare to offend him easily, otherwise we may cause some kind of trouble."

At this time, Bai Jing tugged at the corner of my clothes and whispered to me, "I still have 20,000 yuan in my bag, why don't you use it first?" It's not ...... though It's not a dark paper, but it's always worth more than a dark coin, right? ”

"Shut up, you!" I cursed in my heart, I thought I had an extra right-hand man, but I didn't expect to be a pig-like teammate.

I felt that it was still necessary to remind this 'rich woman' who couldn't hold down the money bag, so I whispered to her:

"Do you think it's a trip abroad? And give them RM coins and let them go to the bank to exchange them themselves? You tightened my pocket, don't leave anything here, or you will bear the consequences! ”

Just as we were muttering to each other, the old ghost spoke again, but his tone became cold:

"Young man, did you all come empty-handed? In this way, you are not Mr. Yin and Yang who came to follow the law, but have transgressed the law without permission! ”

Sun Tuzi secretly screamed that it was not good: "This is another guy who turns his face faster than a book." ”

Unlike him, listening to the old ghost's obvious threat in his tone, I was a little more settled.

The old guy in front of him has probably just been a ghost for a long time, or he has heard some deeds of Mr. Yin and Yang to act in the underworld.

For Chenghe Town, the three of us naturally came abruptly, so it is no wonder that he would say that we are 'new to your land'.

He clearly wants to get some benefits from us, and I'm really not afraid of how much trouble such a character can cause.

Seeing that we had not yet meant to 'express', the old ghost's face became even more gloomy, as if he could eat us alive if he did not give him any favor.

I was about to have a seizure when I felt a fluffy mass rub against my hand.

Before I could look down, there was something more in my hand.

Just by feeling it, I felt out what was in my hand, and I was very curious at the moment, and when I looked down, I saw that the meat floss was next to my leg, looking up at me.

And my originally empty hands have a thick pile of banknotes now!

Sun Lu didn't see the origin of this 'money', but when he saw that I had 'money' in my hand, he reacted and sighed:

"Don't you say you have no money, it turns out that you still have a hand. I'm really convinced of you, it's all this time, why are you still doing this little eye. Hurry up and give the money to the old girl, and find Dou Dabeard first. ”

"Where did the money come from?"

I hesitated, but when I saw that the old ghost's face became more and more gloomy, and the old face became green and showed a ghostly appearance, I gritted my teeth and barely squeezed out a smile, and handed over the banknote in my hand.

The old ghost took the money, and his face suddenly softened a lot, but he squinted at me again, and said without yin or yang:

"Even if there is money to make the devil grind, it depends on how much it is given."

I couldn't help frowning, the old thing was really hard.

I wasn't a good temper either, and when I saw that the old ghost was insatiable, I didn't bother to entangle him anymore.

But at this moment, I suddenly felt some itching on the edge of my palm.

This time, I hurriedly looked down, but I was stunned on the spot.
