Chapter 195
The so-called ghost sighting is a specific kind of terrifying phenomenon.
In ancient times, before going on an expedition, who would go and who wouldn't go would be judged on the battlefield, and whoever was called would have to go out and serve as a soldier.
However, the battlefield is dangerous. How many people have fought since ancient times?
For Ding, who is singled out, being singled out is the end of hell. Whether he can come back alive depends on whether his fate is tough enough. There is no room for accommodation.
This is called general ordering troops.
The ghost's command refers to the saying of "the general's command of the soldiers".
A ghost or other terrifying thing will kill one person every day, and it cannot be hidden or evaded.
If you die at the third watch, you will never live until the fifth watch.
This is an extremely horrific scene. Killing is only one aspect, and on the other, it is torture.
Because no one knows who will die next.
During this period of time, the Qiao family and the Gao family encountered ghosts.
The two families take turns, one of you dies and the other of me dies.
One is not too many, one is too little, and even if one dies, there will never be a mistake.
Moreover, the state of death is very uniform, that is, losing the head.
The incision was smoother than the beheading at Xishikou.
The two families were in constant panic. They looked for people to look after things, but it was of no use. Three of the people who looked after things were dead.
No one dares to look at the back, it's a big disaster.
Just look for Qin He, but in fact there is no way to move, any straw you can grasp will be considered a life-saving thing.
Today it's the Qiao family's turn to be the ghost.
Qin He didn't go to see Qiao's family. He took a nap to regain his energy and waited until dark before going out with the shovel and going to Qiao's alley.
Qiaojia Hutong is a well-known rich alley in Beijing. It is full of rich families, and the courtyards are more luxurious than the others.
Perhaps the reason for the bad luck in the Qiao family is that the surrounding yards have lost their popularity and most likely have moved away.
But the Qiao family can't move away, because there is a rule for ghosts and ghosts: those who escape will die first.
At first, the Qiao family also thought about escaping, but in the end they all died, and those who stayed gained peace.
After coming and going again, no one dared to escape.
But the result of not escaping is to wait for death slowly, and one day it will be your turn.
Qin He didn't know how much hatred and resentment there was, but it was clear that he wanted the Qiao family to torture them in an extremely frightened mood without giving them any pleasure.
Qin He found a big tree and looked down at the Qiao family courtyard from above.
At this moment, the Qiao family's courtyard is brightly lit. It is a huge house with lanterns hanging high everywhere. They are afraid of being swallowed by darkness. Only light can bring them a little sense of security.
All doors, windows, entrance halls, and corridors where people can move around are all decorated with various symbols, jade tablets, ink lines, and glutinous rice. Some are to ward off evil spirits, some to suppress corpses, and some to suppress spirits.
Yes, if you look carefully, quite a few of them are genuine and not meant to fool people.
These should be the "legacies" left by the spectators who died earlier.
Being an observer is extremely risky, especially when faced with a murderous situation like this. If you have never fought before, you don't know how you died.
It's hard to get money.
But there must be brave men under heavy rewards.
Now there is a man, who is dirty, slovenly, and as thin as a piece of firewood. He wears a large Taoist robe, which is very inappropriate. He is currently in the pavilion in Qiao's courtyard. He has a chicken leg in his left hand and a chicken leg in his right hand.
A pair of long chopsticks are being used to pick up food in the soup pot.
The tables were set up in the pavilion, the stew was steaming on the stove, and the Taoist priests were busy with their work.
The Qiao family gathered around the pavilion and set up multiple stoves, and they did not dare to stay in the house.
Obviously, this Taoist priest gave them a great sense of security.
Qin He was delighted when he saw this.
This is an acquaintance.
"Taoist Priest, do you think we need to add more ingredients?" Qiao Dai said to the Taoist priest cautiously and respectfully.
These days are too difficult for the Qiao family. Taking turns with the Gao family, one person dies every two days. People are in panic. Qiao Dai can only look for someone to look after things. No matter who they are, as long as they come, one hundred taels will be paid.
I will collect the silver first. If the matter is settled, I will give you a thousand taels of silver immediately.
Qiao Dai didn't dare to shout if there were too many people, fearing that they would scare them away before they came.
One thousand taels is not too much, it is just right.
Originally, there were quite a few people who came here, and they were all quite famous in the world, but as soon as they heard that they were specialized in cutting heads, they were scared away, or they stayed and actually had their heads cut off.
Qiao Dai was almost desperate. She begged her grandfather and grandma everywhere, and even made an exception and even secretly asked Feiyuwei.
As a result, Di Lu went south, and the whole Feiyu Guard was in chaos, and no one had time to take care of his business.
But I never expected that a great master would be welcomed into my home today.
The chief disciple of Lingyunguan, Taoist Master Wu De.
Lingyun Temple is known as the number one temple in the north of the Yangtze River. It is a Taoist holy land. It has always had contacts with Feiyu Guards and the imperial court. Its strength and heritage are absolutely beyond words.
