Chapter 56: Let's inquire about the situation first
There is a folk saying called "ghost lost in the sun", which means that you are fascinated by ghosts, and you think you have experienced a lot of things, but in fact, you may not have stood still at all.
The situation just now was similar, Monk Yuanzhi and Zhou Fengchen wanted to invite the ghost to appear, but the ghost invited them to dream, and the face was really crackling.
Zhou Fengchen's face turned red and said, "I was careless, I thought that as a yin ghost, I would not be able to fix these things, but I fell into the road unconsciously, it's too embarrassing!"
Monk Yuanzhi also felt very embarrassed, and asked Zhou Fengchen what happened after he went out, and Zhou Fengchen told him about the exchange with the ghost.
Monk Yuanzhi smiled bitterly, waved his hand and called out Sun Zhenguo's family, "The matter has been resolved, it's okay, give the money!" ”
Sun Zhenguo didn't believe it and said, "Really? I didn't see anything. ”
Monk Yuanzhi was furious, "Let's take everything on ourselves, and you're still in a commotion, what do you want?" ”
Zhou Fengchen coughed and said to Sun Zhenguo: "That ghost is about 1.75 meters tall, wearing a gray tweed robe, holding a book printed with flowers on the other side in his hand, and ...... Skinny face, pale, hooked nose, and a pinch of mustache on the chin, right? ”
Sun Zhenguo was taken aback, Zhou Fengchen's description was exactly the same as the ghost he had seen, where did he dare to doubt it? Quickly took out all the money in the family and stuffed it to the Yuan Zhi monk, saying that there was so much to it, and there was no deposit at home.
The Yuanzhi monk counted eight thousand pieces, and pulled his face: "It's not enough!"
Then the family began to scrape together money again, bits and pieces, and five cents and one cent.
Monk Yuanzhi's face twitched, and he said to Zhou Fengchen: "This deal is a big loss!"
Zhou Fengchen said: "This family is poor enough, or ...... If you don't want to, the little boy has handed over all the money to buy candy, and he is crying. ”
As soon as the words fell, Sun Zhenguo's daughter, a very beautiful girl, said with a straight face: "Why are you like thieves, our family will have a problem eating tomorrow."
Monk Yuanzhi sneered and said: "As the saying goes, there is no gratuitous favor, it is natural to take money to eliminate disasters, and there is an inexplicable cause and effect relationship here, the more money we want, the less you owe us."
The girl was speechless, and Sun Zhenguo respectfully took the 1,000 yuan he had made up.
Zhou Fengchen took the money, thought about it and explained: "Sun Zhenguo, don't be poor if you don't have money in the future, what kind of adventure is it."
……
Coming out of Sun Zhenguo, the two of them had four or five thousand yuan in their pockets, and they still felt very depressed, Sun Zhenguo was fine, and their affairs were not over yet.
Back at the rental house, it was almost dawn, the two bought breakfast, and pondered while eating, the ghost must do what he said, otherwise he would have to do it all night, and he would have to watch out for the other party's revenge all day long, too tired.
Now the key question is, what the hell is Osmanthus Village, they have never heard of it.
After breakfast, the two of them slept for a while, and before nine o'clock in the morning, they rushed to the small restaurant together, Zhou Fengchen asked the proprietress for leave, and inquired about the situation in Osmanthus Village by the way, but the proprietress and Lao Li had never heard of this place.
Coming out of the small restaurant, looking at the crowd coming and going on the street, Zhou Fengchen scratched his head and said depressedly: "I suspect that this ghost is deliberately making things difficult for us, there are too many problems here, we don't know where Osmanthus Village is, even if we know, which ghost to catch?" What the hell is in the village? There is not even a person to lead the way, so we sneakily run into the village, and it is strange not to be regarded as a thief. ”
Monk Yuanzhi pondered for a while, "Then we have to make a plan, first find this place, then find a way to find out the situation, and finally think about how to do it." ”
Zhou Fengchen asked, "How to find it first?"
Monk Yuan Zhi thought for a while, "This place can't be in the city as soon as you hear the name, it should be outside the city, and it won't be too far away, and the ghost is not brain-dead, otherwise the fuck is in Malaysia, how can we get there?" I recommend...... Go to an internet café and have a look. ”
……
The two found an Internet café, Zhou Fengchen had never played with a computer, and the Yuanzhi monk was also choked enough, so he asked a female network manager to get it, and after a search, he really found such a place.
Osmanthus Village is a small mountain village, forty-seven kilometers away from Donghai City, there are many osmanthus trees in the village, and there is the master's ancestral craftsmanship of making osmanthus cake, which is a little famous far and near.
"This is it!"
The two came to the spirit, discussed, struck while the iron was hot, went to investigate the situation first as planned, and then started at night.
returned to the rental house and took the guys, and went to the nearby pedestrian street to serve a pot that bought sugar gourds, Zhou Fengchen pretended to be a sugar gourd seller, and the Yuan Zhi monk starred in his true colors, pretending to be a passing monk.
The two of them rushed to the station with their things, got on the bus to the vicinity of Osmanthus Village, and set off at eleven o'clock at noon, and it was already two or three o'clock in the afternoon when they arrived at the ground.
The location here is very remote, not far from the big river, in front of a continuous low mountain, there is only one road in the middle, osmanthus village is in that group of low mountains, standing on the road, do not look carefully, it is difficult to find.
It is October, the osmanthus is fragrant, the osmanthus village does not know how many osmanthus trees, the fragrance wafts here and makes people feel a little fragrant and greasy.
Zhou Fengchen and Monk Yuanzhi were eating a string of sugar gourds, stepping on their feet to look at Osmanthus Village, and their mouths made chirping and poofing sounds from time to time.
Monk Yuanzhi pointed to the front of Osmanthus Village, "Have you seen the big tree in the col in front of the village?" Let's separate first, I'll go from the west, you go from the east, try to be as natural as possible, ask whose house has something strange, and then meet under the big tree, and a total of them. ”
"That's it!" Zhou Fengchen picked up the sugar gourd string handle, raised his feet and left, walked a few steps and turned back and shouted: "How much does a sugar gourd sell?"
Monk Yuanzhi almost fell down, "My brother, you can sell five cents and one piece!" ”
……
Looking at the mountain and running dead, Zhou Fengchen carried a sugar gourd string handle, wore tattered clothes, carried a magic weapon leather bag on his waist, and walked for more than an hour to reach the village, the first impression of this village to him was that there were too many osmanthus trees, almost no other trees, and the fragrance was a little pungent.
There are many people in the village, many of them sitting in the shade of the trees playing cards, and many children running around.
Zhou Fengchen coughed, brewed his feelings, and shouted at the top of his throat: "Sugar gourd!" One dollar a piece! ”
This voice was terrible, and a bunch of children came running, and many adults followed.
"How much is one?"
"One piece!"
"So expensive? Can I change it for a wine bottle? ”
"Wine bottles...... Oh, don't! ”
"Two of them!"
"Come three!"
……
Ten minutes later, Zhou Fengchen looked at the bare sugar gourd skewers, dumbfounded, sold out all at once, and asked for news?
He looked around, he didn't know where the monk Yuanzhi had gone, and when no one was paying attention, he pretended to take out a sugar gourd from the purse of the magic weapon, and then walked to the village.
I just walked around, and I didn't encounter anything abnormal, so I simply ran under a big tree and watched people play cards.
It was three women and an old man playing cards, playing and playing, and a middle-aged woman said casually: "Tsui Hark, that child is really good, picking up a daughter-in-law on the road, and she looks so beautiful."
Another woman answered: "Listen to his nonsense, how can he pick up a woman on the road, even if he finds it, so coincidentally people will come back with him to be his wife?" I suspect they bought it from. ”
The woman laughed and said no more.
Zhou Fengchen pondered, is there such a coincidence? I wanted to ask what was going on, but I opened my mouth, but I was embarrassed to speak, so I turned around and went to the big tree that I had made an appointment with Monk Yuanzhi to see if he had any gains.
Monk Yuanzhi had already returned, and was eating at the bar, when he saw Zhou Fengchen coming, he greeted him and said mysteriously: "I have found out the way, what about you?"
