My ghost wives all want to kill me?

After Li Gui got in the car, the driver followed the navigation and drove towards Fangxi Village.

Holding the steering wheel, he looked at Li Gui through the rearview mirror from time to time, speaking curiously.

Large orders like this are usually done by several people, and it is quite rare for someone like Li Gui to do it alone.

"That's about it. Let's go back to my parents' house and visit."

It wasn't a lie. Li Gui felt that the driver's words had other meanings.

"That's better. I can sleep at my wife's house for one night and it won't be too late to come back tomorrow."

Li Gui was even more confused. The driver didn't know what he was doing, so why did he have to say he would be back tomorrow.

"Why do you say that? Master."

The drive of more than two hours was not a short one, and the driver seemed to be waiting for Li Gui to ask this question.

"Young man, you are not a local, and you don't follow Jiulin news. Jiulin City has not been peaceful recently. Major cases have occurred frequently in the past few months."

He probably pays close attention to current affairs, so the driver shook his head as he spoke.

"These cases are basically murder cases. I heard people from the city police talking about it. These murder cases are all related to one person. Do you think it's strange?"

Glancing at the rearview mirror, the driver was still expecting Li Gui's next question, but he didn't expect the young man to finish listening. Instead, he took out his mobile phone with a strange expression.

"It's really weird."

"Really, what kind of place is Jiulin? It's a small third- and fourth-tier city. Normally, it would be good to have a big case every four or five years. But as a result, in the past few months, there have been big cases every week. I heard that there are still a lot of cases." A young man discovered it, and anyone who looked at it could tell that something was wrong."

The driver was minding his own business, but Li Gui didn't answer.

"In my opinion, these police officers should arrest this young man or find a few people to keep an eye on them. Even if there is no evidence, they should always be on the lookout for such dangerous elements who disrupt social order."

Seeing his uncle talking happily, Li Gui wanted to say something several times, but he held it back.

Finally, a phone call came, giving him a reason to drop the subject.

"Li Gui."

The call was from Wang Xinlan. As soon as Li Gui answered the call, he heard her tired voice on the other end.

"How's it going? Did you find the jade pendant?"

"Well, Mengmeng brought the jade pendant along with her, and the small iron box contained only her family photos."

Maybe like Li Gui, Wang Xinlan was a little listless because she hadn't rested all day.

"It took me a long time before Mengmeng agreed to let me use it for one night."

Muttering to himself, Li Gui frowned.

"One night?"

His original intention was to wait for Xu Xingxing to wake up and try to ask about the soul summoning ceremony. During this period, Wang Xinlan kept the jade pendant.

But now, it seems almost impossible.

Mengmeng suffers from a serious mental illness and places great importance on her mother's relics. Wang Xinlan, whom she has the best relationship with, can only lend them out for one night, but not necessarily the next time.

"Is there a problem?"

Li Gui's silence made Wang Xinlan on the other end of the phone keenly aware of something strange.

"A bit, but I will take care of it. You keep the jade pendant first and I will contact you in the evening."

Not sure the specific extent of Xu Qing's injury, Li Gui planned to wait until night to see if Xu Qing still couldn't communicate normally.

She can only let Wang Xinlan return the jade pendant to Mengmeng and wait for the next opportunity.

"Well, okay, be careful, I'll wait for your call."

After finishing his communication with Wang Xinlan, Li Gui took back his cell phone and began to close his eyes and rest.The driver was originally waiting for the young man to finish the call and continue chatting, but Li Gui obviously didn't care much about his topic, which made the talkative driver feel inexplicably uncomfortable.

I can only turn on the radio and listen to the cross talk coming from it to relieve my boredom.

Time passes little by little with the clock, and the horizon gradually turns to dusk. Surrounded by the mountains, Fangxi Village has the unique tranquility and beauty of the countryside. The simple-decorated residential buildings are connected to some old tile-roofed houses. The smoke from the kitchen to tempt people’s appetite.

Dining in rural areas is different from that in big cities. Elderly people and children in every household like to hold a large porcelain jar or a rooster bowl with a gap, fill it with food, walk out of the house, find a mat to sit and eat, and if they happen to meet an acquaintance, , and can also say hello with a smile.

Not unpleasant at all.

However, Lao Wangtou prefers squatting to sitting.

Squatting down makes me full faster. Although there is no shortage of food now, the habits developed over the past few decades have still remained.

"The village has been very peaceful recently, and there is still meat to eat every meal. If this happened before, I would never dare to think about it."

Seeing his grandson coming out and sitting on the threshold with a rooster bowl, Lao Wangtou put down the ceramic jar and took out the cigarette rod stuck behind his butt. He couldn't help but want to take a few puffs and miss the past.

The old man in his seventies does not understand the technology of the new era. After finishing the farm work every day, the only way to entertain himself is to tell stories about his past experiences to his back.

But before Lao Wang could stuff tobacco into the cigarette rod, a white car drove slowly from the other end of the village.

This made Lao Wangtou's movements in his hands stop. The other villagers around him who were still enjoying their meals spontaneously raised their necks and looked at this sudden 'uninvited guest'.

After about ten seconds, the car door opened, and a tall, handsome man carrying a big bag walked out.

This boy is very handsome. If he were from the village, Old Wangtou would definitely praise him.

But the reality is that when Old Wangtou saw him, the initial comfort on his face completely disappeared, and after a few seconds, he immediately turned to panic.

"Run!"

Before he even had time to pick up the teapot, Lao Wang dragged his grandson and ran into the house. His strong body showed agility that was not suitable for his age. He pulled his grandson, closed the door, and inserted the door latch, all in one go.

When other villagers watching the excitement saw the young man, they hurried back into the house as if they had seen a ghost.

This made Li Gui, who had always been self-proclaimed charming and with a smile on his face not long after getting off the car, a little embarrassed.

"No, I haven't said anything yet."

The private car turned around and drove away. Li Gui had already left the driver's uncle's phone number.

When he returned to his hometown, he felt very complicated. He originally wanted to say hello to the surrounding villagers, but he didn't expect that they would not give him this opportunity at all.

"I still need to bring some simple gifts. I wonder if Auntie's shop sold paper money, incense and other offerings before."

Chapter 473: Revisiting the old place. Tsuchiya

Without paying too much attention, Li Gui walked deeper along the narrow street.

It has been almost a few months since I first came to Fangxi Village, but this small village surrounded by mountains seems to be isolated from the world. The narrow streets and both sides have basically remained unchanged.

The roads were still full of potholes, and the houses were so compact that a piece of paper could not fit inside. Two new street lights were installed in the middle of the street, but no bulbs were installed. A wooden ladder was lying next to it.

"Sister, business is good."

Walking from the side, he returned to the familiar shop. After a few months, Li Gui saw the fat proprietress sitting at the door, wearing an apron and holding a rice bowl. Her husband was sitting opposite with a basket on her back.

"Oh my god."

She didn't react at first. It wasn't until Li Gui walked towards her that the landlady realized her face was frightened. She wanted to ask her wife to close the rolling shutter door, but someone who had been prepared for it slipped in in a flash. .

"Auntie, what are you doing? You open a store and don't let people buy things?"

Li Gui was a little depressed. He had not done anything sinful and outrageous to both humans and gods. Why did the villagers here look at him as if they were seeing a god of plague.

"Here, you, are you a human or a ghost?"

The uninvited guests made the two shop owners stand up in fear. Li Gui ignored them and looked around the shop for the 'gifts' he needed.

After more than ten seconds, the boss lady's husband, an uncle in a sweat-stained shirt, stood up and asked timidly.

"Uncle, what are you talking about? Have you seen any ghosts that can come out during the day, and they have shadows and can shine in the sun?"

"This....."

Seeing Li Gui standing at the door, waving his hands towards the sun, the couple, both in their 40s, looked at each other with doubts.

"You went to the earthen house above, are you okay?"

Finally, the landlady asked in disbelief.

"It's okay. I'm living a good life. I just went over and took a look. I didn't dare to stay any longer. I took a taxi on the road above the house and left that day."

Li Gui could still remember that there was a road above Yiyi Tsuchiya. He looked around with the help of his donkey, and finally saw the 'gift' he wanted to take to meet his parents in the glass cabinet inside the shop.

"Brother and sister, how do you sell this yellow paper?"

No one answered. Li Gui was still curious and was suddenly hit on the shoulder.

When he turned around, he found the other half of the landlady holding a rice bowl several meters away from him.

"It has temperature and is alive."

"Really alive?"

"real."

Unexpectedly, the two of them were still struggling with this issue. Li Gui was speechless while carrying his backpack.

"Now that you know I'm a human being, just help me bring incense and paper money. I'm still in a hurry."

After asking Li Gui many questions, the two eldest brothers and sisters gradually determined that Li Gui was really a human and not a ghost.

While looking at him, he held a red plastic bag and filled him with paper money and incense.

"It's not the day to say goodbye yet, young man, you don't want to go up there, do you?"

After loading the offerings, the landlady handed them to Li Gui.

"That's right, let's go see Granny Zhang by the way."

"Oh, don't go back. That mother-in-law was buried just a few weeks ago. That place is really unlucky. If you can escape the first time, you may not be able to escape the second time."

She really didn't want Li Gui to die again, so the proprietress stood at the back door of the glass cabinet and kindly tried to dissuade her, regardless of her husband's obstruction.

"Grandma Zhang is dead?"

But for Li Gui, who returned to Tsuchwu as if he had returned home, his attention was instead on the boss's wife's first words.

"Last month No. 15, Lao Xu and I carried it up and buried it."

This time it was the boss's husband who spoke. He couldn't persuade his wife, so he could only explain bitterly.

"Although it is said that people will get old sooner or later, people in the village still suspect that it has something to do with the house above. If you really want to say goodbye, take the back path up the mountain. You can bypass the house above."

NO.13 The earthen house has almost become a nightmare in the village. When talking about that house, the villagers become angry. Li Gui knew that this impression would not be changed for a while, so he could only nodded silently.

"Okay, please help me decorate more."

After coming out of the shop, the sun in the distance showed signs of setting. Li Gui walked forward. The proprietress of the shop wanted to remind him that he was on the wrong track, but was held back by his wife.

"Forget it, everyone has his own destiny, we can't control it."

I took out my mobile phone, walked to the middle of the street, and climbed up the familiar alley toward the mountainside. On the left and right sides, there were still desolate and lifeless scenes. The ground was overgrown with weeds, wooden poles randomly wrapped with wires, and the steps with cracked stone slabs. The lifeless house seems as if nothing has changed, but also as if everything is changing.

It took about ten minutes for Li Gui to walk to the bamboo forest on the slope below Yiyi Tuwu.

However, this time he did not choose to climb into the earthen house along the woods. Instead, he walked up the steps, walked through a trodden path, and came to the tile-roofed house of Granny Zhang opposite.

The door has been locked, and large chunks of plaster painted on the surrounding walls have fallen off, revealing the dry soil inside. Unattended firewood is scattered on the ground indiscriminately. There are only dry leaves in the courtyard, which can no longer be seen. To Shou's figure here.

Li Gui walked to a chair in front of the threshold. The chair was pointed in the direction of No. 13 Tsuchiya opposite.

"Grandma Zhang, I believe that Yiyi's mother-in-law and others have forgiven you a long time ago."

Taking out some paper money from his pocket, Li Gui lit it and placed it at the door. When the paper money burned out and four sticks of incense were left on the soil under the stone slab, he left the tile-roofed house and walked towards Yiyi's house opposite.

After coming up, there was a smelly ditch next to the steps that extended all the way to the road, but it had long been dry, and the few wooden boards on top were strangely well-preserved.

Li Gui stepped over and followed the path that was almost buried by weeds and branches to the door of Yiyi's house.

Under the fault in the courtyard is still the unknown big tree that bent half of its body. On the walls outside the house, the white plaster has almost completely fallen off. There are still fallen tiles on the ground. There is a layer of embers in front of the white rice placed at the door.

Li Gui stood in front of the house, took out his notebook and compared the crayon drawings with the scene in front of him.

"Although it has faded badly, the only thing that still has a bit of red in the house is the door of the house, which should be Yiyi's blood door."

After bypassing the sacrifices in front of the door, Li Gui tried to push open the red wooden door with severe paint peeling.

As the door hinge turned, a creaking sound was heard. Standing at the door, the room illuminated by the flashlight was different from what he had imagined.

It's not the same darkness that swallows up the light.
