Chapter 291: Old Knowledge?

"You... what kind of weapon are you?!"

A slightly startled voice suddenly came from behind, making the smile on Ye Chen's face instantly stiff.

He quickly turned around, pulled out the revolver at his waist, and aimed vigilantly at the girl in red who appeared behind him.

"who are you?"

"What do you think?" The red-clothed girl said angrily, "You just destroyed the paper cat I possessed, and you asked me who I am?"

Ye Chen was slightly startled, and then exclaimed: "It's you, you are not a monster, you are a female ghost?!"

The girl in red curled her lips, ignoring the vigilant Ye Chen, walked to the table behind him, and picked up the red paper with a distressed face.

"Oh, it's really completely broken. Do you know how difficult it is for me to cut a paper doll——Ye Chen, you have to pay me!"

"..." Ye Chen frowned, "Do you know my name?"

"Of course, I made a special trip to find you on this trip. I wanted to lure you outside Ren's mansion first, and then tell my purpose of coming, but who would have thought that you are so hateful, not only disguising garlic as sugar , and use it to bully a poor, weak and helpless kitten, I am so angry!"

As she said that, the girl in red couldn't help but glared at Ye Chen, the little girl's posture between her eyebrows made Ye Chen's heart slightly lowered.

He could feel that the female ghost in front of him seemed to have no malice toward him.

But no matter what, ghosts are ghosts, and people and ghosts have different paths, Ye Chen naturally dare not put down the revolver in his hand.

He frowned, glanced at Ren Tingting who was sleeping on the bed, and said in a deep voice, "So what are you here for?"

The girl in red put away the tattered paper cat, looked at Ye Chen and said with a smile, "Please go to the wild temple in the northwest of the village. My sister wants to see you."

"Your sister?" Ye Chen frowned and asked in surprise, "Is she also a female ghost?"

The girl in red smiled and nodded: "Of course."

Ye Chen's face was weird when he heard this, he couldn't help sighing, and said: "Humans and ghosts have different ways, although I am handsome, I am a living person after all, even if your sister takes a fancy to me, it is impossible for me to be with her , not to mention, I am still a married man..."

Before he finished speaking, the girl in red laughed angrily at him.

"You bastard, you are so narcissistic, why is my sister looking at you—bah, I really don't know what to do, so that you can know that although my sister is the body of a ghost, she is extremely talented and has the appearance of a ghost. If you want to marry, you are also marrying a powerful man of the underworld, you are just a mortal scholar, what right do you have to be looked down upon by my sister?"

Ye Chen smiled and said, "If that's the case, why does your sister want to see me?"

The girl in red snorted softly, "Sister said, he knew you before she was alive, but her memory is not complete after her death, and she can't remember her past and your identity, so I want to talk to you alone."

...Known before you were born?
Ye Chen was slightly taken aback, and thoughtfully said: "Does the girl have evidence?"

The girl in red said proudly: "Yes, my sister taught me a poem, saying that as long as you read this poem to you, you will go to see her!"

Ye Chen raised his eyebrows slightly, and said with great interest, "Oh? Read it and listen."

The girl in red coughed softly, and said solemnly: "Listen well—the scenery of the northern country, thousands of miles of ice, thousands of miles of snow drifting, looking inside and outside the Great Wall, but the only thing is wild, the big river goes up and down, suddenly lost its torrent, mountain dance... mountain dance... …What’s the matter with Shanwu?”

The girl in red was brooding in distress, like a scumbag who couldn't recite poems in later generations.

Ye Chen couldn't bear to see it, so he couldn't help but add: "Mountain Dance Silver Snake, Yuan Chi Wax Elephant, I want to compete with the God of Heaven!"

"Yep!"

The red-clothed girl's eyes lit up, she nodded repeatedly and said: "That's it, it seems that you are indeed my sister's old friend, and you even know the word my sister taught me!"

...Known before you were born?
It must be a fellow from the previous life!
Ye Chen couldn't help complaining in his heart.

Although this song "Qinyuanchun Snow" was written by the teacher in 1936, it was first published in 1945.

And the timeline of this world is extremely forward, not to mention 1945, even 1936 has not yet arrived. The person who knows this poem is either the teacher himself who has a preview in his mind, or the time travel from later generations By.

The elder sister of the girl in red in front of her is obviously the latter.

Thinking of this, Ye Chen couldn't help confirming again: "Is your sister really a female ghost?"

The girl in red said unhappily: "Of course, can I still lie to you?"

There are still traversers reduced to ghosts?
This luck is even worse than him!
Ye Chen pondered for a while, and said softly: "Reply to your sister for me, just say that I will see her at Sishi tomorrow."

The red-clothed girl frowned slightly, and asked doubtfully, "Why does it have to be tomorrow, why not now?"

Ye Chen said softly: "Because I still have to take Brother Li with me, and Brother Li is also your sister's old acquaintance."

The girl in red thought for a while, then nodded: "Alright, since that's the case, then I'll go first, people and ghosts have different paths, without the possessed paper figurine, the ghost aura on me is not good for you—oh yes Don’t forget to bring me 49 pieces of red paper tomorrow, you ruined my paper figurine, and you will pay me another one!”

"Okay, okay, I remember!"

Ye Chen smiled and nodded.

Knowing that the female ghost in red in front of him was the younger sister of the traverser, Ye Chen's mentality changed immediately.

He didn't care about the female ghost's offense before, he just regarded it as a prank by his friend's sister.

The girl in red didn't seem to expect Ye Chen to suddenly become so talkative, so she glanced at him in surprise, thought for a while, and waved her sleeves.

In an instant, an invisible wave spread throughout Ren's mansion.

Ye Chen was thoughtful, thinking that this should be the other party's unraveling of the enchantment spell.

When the girl in red turned into green smoke and disappeared before his eyes, Ye Chen put the revolver back around his waist, sat on the side of the bed, and gently shook Ren Tingting's shoulder.

"……What's wrong?"

Seeing Ren Tingting opened her eyes in a daze, Ye Chen was relieved.

……

……

The next morning.

Li Yun pushed open the door and walked into the courtyard a little depressed.

He originally thought that Old Master Ren would turn into a corpse soon, but who would have thought that nothing happened last night.

What exactly is going on?

In the yard, Uncle Jiu, who was sweeping with a broom, caught a glimpse of Li Yun's expression, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up.

"Why, are you disappointed?"

"It's a bit." Li Yun nodded, then looked at Uncle Jiu and asked doubtfully, "Uncle Jiu, aren't you going to the mountain today to find a good geomantic treasure for Mrs. Ren? Why haven't you left yet?"

Hearing Li Yun's words, Uncle Jiu was furious.

He said angrily: "It's not because of Wen Cai's lazy donkey, who can't wake up unless he barks, and doesn't dial or turn!"

As soon as the words fell, Wen Cai ran out with sticks of different lengths on his back: "Master, I'm ready!"

Uncle Jiu looked him up and down, then snorted coldly, "Where's the compass?"

Wen Cai showed embarrassment, and quickly turned around and ran back to the house to get the compass.

Looking at Wencai's back, Uncle Jiu couldn't help shaking his head and sighing: "Cut and careless, forget everything!"

Ever since he had the idea of ​​accepting apprentices, Uncle Jiu saw that his two apprentices were becoming more and more distasteful, and he always thought that if it was Li Yun or Ye Chen, he would definitely not make the same low-level mistakes as Wen Caiqiusheng.

It's better to accept a real successor as soon as possible!

If this goes on like this, sooner or later, his life will be ruined by these two bastards.

Uncle Jiu sighed in his heart, and his desire to accept disciples became stronger.

Li Yun watched it funny. Living in Yizhuang is one of the benefits, and I can see this comedy master and apprentice every day.

Soon, Wen Cai ran up to Uncle Jiu with a compass and sticks of different lengths on his back.

"Master, I'm really ready this time!"

Uncle Jiu took another look and nodded slightly: "Then let's go!"

After finishing speaking, Uncle Jiu put the broom on the base of the wall, and with his hands behind his back, he turned and walked towards the gate of Yizhuang.

Wen Cai greeted Li Yun with a smile, then hurriedly followed, and asked in a low voice, "Master, what kind of land are we looking for this time?"

Uncle Jiu glanced at him, and said calmly: "Of course the best one is Lian Zhen's patriarch, resigning from the downstairs hall, opening up and down, big and small, crossing fields and crossing gorge, bee waist and crane knees, twist and turn, center Out of the veins, the star is specially raised, the pointed map is square, surrounded by dragons and tigers, and the mountains and rivers are guarded by layers—”

Wen Cai showed embarrassment and muttered softly, "I don't understand."

Uncle Jiu snorted, "I just said this after digesting it!"

Wen Cai curled his lips and said, "That means there is something wrong with my stomach."

"It's not the stomach, it's the head!" Uncle Jiu shook his head and sighed, "Your master and I have been wise and powerful all our lives, why..."

Wen Cai immediately answered with a smile: "It's not that I am a slow apprentice, how can I appear to be wise and powerful as a master?"

Uncle Jiu twitched the corner of his mouth when he heard this, he was both angry and funny.

"Stinky boy, you're playing hob meat with master, right?"

Uncle Jiu raised his hand, making a gesture to strike, but Wen Cai quickly dodged it.

Just this time, he accidentally bumped into Ye Chen who was walking outside the door.

The compass in his hand flew out, and was easily caught by Ye Chen's empty left hand.

Seeing this move, Uncle Jiu admired it, and asked with a smile: "It's Ye Chen, why did you come to Yizhuang so early, did Master Ren ask you to come?"

"Be careful next time."

Ye Chen handed the compass in his hand to Wen Cai, then turned to look at Uncle Jiu with a smile and said, "No, I'm here to find Brother Li."

Uncle Jiu raised his eyebrows: "Oh?"

Ye Chen glanced at the compass in Wencai's hand and the stick on his back, and asked curiously, "Are you two going to the mountain to find a treasure land of geomantic omen?"

Wen Cai quickly said, "That's right, are you interested? Do you want to come together?"

What he was most afraid of was going up the mountain with Uncle Jiu to find a place with good Fengshui.

Because every time he does this, he has to carry all the things for his master, and it often takes six or seven hours to carry it. The literary physique is not as good as Qiu Sheng, and it is simply a waste for him to run for six or seven hours. The most brutal torture in the world.

It is the best thing for him to be able to pull someone to share the luggage.

But unfortunately...

"No!"

Although Ye Chen was very interested, he still refused with a smile: "I have some urgent business with Brother Li."

"Ok."

Wen Cai was a little disappointed, but Uncle Jiu glanced at the bag of red paper Ye Chen was holding in his right hand, and couldn't help feeling suspicious.

White and yellow lead to yang, red paper to lead to yin, Ye Chen is a big living person, and it's not a festival, why buy so much red paper?
