After leaving the teahouse, Meng Xinghe went back to the Provincial School first and hid in the side room to develop his newly invented product. It was not until it was getting dark outside that he reluctantly put down the semi-finished product in his hand and quietly walked out of the Provincial School.
I don’t know what the old man Meng and that old man Lu are doing. Instead of going home to sleep at night, they actually want to go to the Qinhuai River to watch the wind. You can go, why do you have to drag me along? Meng Xinghe complained as he walked. On both sides of the Qinhuai River at night But it was lively, with red lanterns hung high on both sides of the river, like a long red dragon along the river, the sound of strings and bamboo strings wafting out was like an ensemble playing music together, and pimps and ladies hugged each other enthusiastically when they met. Looking for fun, Meng Xinghe looked at the "Lang Qingconcubine" around him with sharp eyes, and could only sigh sincerely, this scene is familiar.
Arriving at the pier by the Qinhuai River, the dark river water was like a dark cloud falling on the ground. Many ferry boatmen extinguished their boat lights and were preparing to go home and sleep with Wen Xiangmeiyu in their arms. They saw two old men standing in front of them, and there were still people beside them. Following a few followers, Meng Xinghe walked over with a smile and said: "There is traffic on the road. Please forgive me for being late."
It was obvious that he was delayed and came late, but he still managed to come up with crooked reasons. This Meng Xinghe is really a treasure. The two old men just snorted coldly, and a thinner attendant standing next to them sighed. Xinghe said: "What nonsense, I just saw you standing in front of the flower house, unable to move, staring at the little girl's body in a daze, you can't even think about making excuses."
"You actually spied on me." The voice sounded familiar. Meng Xinghe stared at the speaker carefully. After seeing her inside and out, he stared at her breasts with a pair of wretched eyes and said, "Miss Lu, when are you going to have sex?" The story of Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai became popular in Tang Dynasty, but your makeup skills still need to be improved. If you don’t wrap it up well in some places, your secrets will be exposed."
There was no story about Liang Zhu in the Tang Dynasty, so Lu Ning naturally didn't know about it, but Meng Xinghe's words were more explicit. Lu Ning had been bullied by him before. In terms of talking skills, Lu Ning was no match for Meng Xinghe after all. She gave him a fierce look. He stopped his voice.
The Censor next to him was surprised, when did his daughter know Meng Xinghe? He glanced at the two of them and asked, seemingly confused: "Ning'er, do you know him?"
"We know each other, we know each other very well. In my last life, she chased me for several streets and left a row of teeth marks on my hand. Oh, my name was Lu Dongbin and you were the same family at that time," Meng Xinghe rushed over. He answered without letting Lu Ning speak first.
How could Lu Ning allow him to bully him like this? She picked up a cut-off oar from somewhere and without any explanation, she hit Meng Xinghe on the head, "You are a dog, a dead dog, a rotten dog, a shameless dog. "
Master Meng easily dodged Miss Lu's hidden weapon: "I am not a dog anymore, I am clearly a wolf,"
Ahem, when the two of them were having a fight regardless of their image, Mr. Meng coughed a few times, breaking the atmosphere. Meng Xinghe immediately asked with concern: "Mr. Meng, are you feeling uncomfortable? There is a lot of humidity on the river. I don't think you should go there." Come on, it’s not good if you catch a cold,”
I want to remind you that this is not a place for young people to have fun. Mr. Meng said seriously: "Since Brother Meng is here, everyone should get on the boat."
He gave the order, which was quite majestic. Lu Ning gestured with her little fist at Meng Xinghe. It seemed that the battle was not over yet. Meng Xinghe did not show any weakness at all. He only extended his sacred middle finger to show friendly welcome. Lu Ning already knew the meaning of this action, her cheeks flushed immediately, and she turned her head away in shame.
Following them on the ferry, Meng Xinghe discovered that it was Xia Lao'er who was ferrying the ferry. Xiao Yuhe poked her head out of the cabin, with a pair of dark eyes. When she saw the tall figure behind everyone, she shouted happily: "Big Brother, why are you here? It’s been a long time since you came to Qinhuai to see Yuhe. Have you forgotten me?”
Meng Xinghe stretched out his hands to hold Xiao Yuhe in his arms, "We haven't seen you for a few days. Xiao Yuhe has gained weight again. Big brother can hardly hold you anymore."
Xiao Yuhe was held in his arms, and her hands climbed up to his face. Lu Ning, who was standing next to her, saw Meng Xinghe holding a six or seven-year-old girl. She breathed a sigh of relief and said fiercely: "Shameless,"
You know how shameless I am. Meng Xinghe returned her smile and said, "Two gentlemen, I don't know where we are going to watch the wind and moon tonight. It is dark and windy at this time, so it is suitable to do some things that are not suitable for children."
Listening to his nonsense, everyone couldn't match his thick face and ignored him. Mr. Meng was silent for a long time before murmuring: "Brother Meng, to be honest, we are going to catch ghosts tonight."
Do you think I'm easy to fool? Among the entourage of these two old men, some of them, Meng Xinghe, could tell that they were Lian Jiazi. I think they were just catching rapes. Meng Xinghe was not a fool either. He followed Mr. Meng's words and said with a smile : "Sir, you have found the right person. My nickname is Ghost. As long as I stand in that cemetery, I will be the best charm to keep the female ghost's legs weak."
"You think you are Zhong Kui," Lu Ning said, having never seen such a narcissistic person before. The censor saw that her daughter, who had always disliked men, was quarreling with this scholar everywhere. She was amused in her heart, but said calmly on her face: "I have recently heard rumors from fishermen on the river that something strange has happened in the Dragon Mother Temple next to the Qinhuai River, which has disturbed the fishermen's normal work and rest, and caused panic among the people within a ten-mile radius. Tonight, I will go to find out and find out what's going on. Who is making trouble and disturbing the people of Jiangdu?"
The Dragon Mother Temple is a temple used by the people of Jiangdu to pray for good weather for a year. The sudden appearance of ghosts caused people to panic. As the censor of Jiangdu, Master Lu, of course, could not ignore it. After what he said, Meng Xinghe It turned out that the temple was haunted by ghosts. This kind of thing has happened since ancient times. It was just someone trying to use the ghosts and gods to spread rumors and cause trouble. No wonder these two old men were so anxious.
The boat rocked for a long time. Not long after, Old Man Xia, who was rocking the boat, stopped the boat in a relatively wide area. The fishermen in the nearby area heard that the Censor was coming tonight, so they had already lit torches and waited on the shore. The river that occasionally blew by Several fox howls were mixed in the wind, causing the fishermen to secretly squeeze the harpoons in their hands and look nervously at the people coming out of the boat.
The Royal Censor and Mr. Meng stepped off the boat, and the entourage behind them immediately surrounded the two of them, apparently for personal protection.
An old fisherman, holding the harpoon in his hand, bowed and walked forward and said: "Sir, the Dragon Mother Temple is right in front. Listen, that cry is heard again," the old fisherman just finished speaking. , there was a faint cry in the air immediately, causing everyone's expressions to change drastically.
"It's this kind of sound. It's this kind of crying sound that comes from the Dragon Mother Temple." A young fisherman listened carefully and said it loudly. These are fishermen who are fishing in this area. Recently, they heard Women's cries were often heard in the Dragon Mother Temple, and there were rumors that something big was going to happen.
Mr. Lu shouted angrily and boldly walked forward: "Everyone, please follow me to see what's going on. I have lived for a long time and have never seen what ghosts look like."
Mr. Lu said quite proudly and took the lead towards the Dragon Mother Temple in front. Many fishermen behind him also boldly followed him.
Meng Xinghe was at the bottom, hearing the faint crying in the air that seemed familiar, and slowly followed him with doubts in his heart.
"Miss Lu, aren't you afraid of ghosts? I remember girls are very afraid of ghosts." On the way to the Dragon Mother Temple, Meng Xinghe actually started talking to Lu Ning who was walking in front.
"I want you to take care of me," Lu Ning turned around and said coldly: "No matter how evil the ghost is, it can't be as scary as you."
"That's true. There are no ghosts as handsome as me," Meng Xinghe said shamelessly, "Hey, Miss Lu, who is that child on your back? Why haven't I seen it before?"
Meng Xinghe was talking nonsense, and Lu Ning suddenly panicked, threw herself into Meng Xinghe's arms with a cry, and said anxiously: "Where is he? Where is he? Get him away quickly."
Seeing Lu trying hard to get into his arms, Meng Xinghe said more seriously: "Miss Lu, how can you take advantage of me when I'm not paying attention? I'm not a casual person. Just give me a hug. Don't love me." Go to this place,"
Master Meng showed his fraternity, and Lu Ning realized that she had been deceived by him again. She pushed away his bear hug and cried: "Liar, liar, you only know how to bully me." She seemed to have suffered a lot. She was so wronged that Lu Ning ran away crying.
"Hey, you are a dog. Just cry if you cry. Why are you biting me?" Meng Xinghe touched a wet ball on his chest. There was probably a cyan moon inside, and he secretly vowed to beware of this next time. Girl, otherwise her mouth is very powerful.
Feeling the pain in my chest, I finally arrived in front of the Dragon Mother Temple. In the past, when there were no ghosts, the incense here was at its peak, but now almost no one comes to offer incense.
The door of the Dragon Mother Temple was ajar. I don’t know who lit two lotus lanterns and hung them on both sides like the ever-burning lanterns in the cemetery. Standing outside the temple, I saw the clay sculpture of the Dragon Mother inside, coated with a layer of light blue. The light shines on it, as if it is burning. What is even weirder is that the statue of the Dragon Mother is actually crying softly.
"The underworld fire, it's the underworld fire." When the fishermen saw the blue fire burning in the Dragon Mother Temple, they backed away in horror, knelt on the ground with a bang, and kept kowtowing, for fear of offending the gods in the temple and causing sin and anger. them.
Meng Xinghe thought something had happened when he saw a row of fishermen kneeling in front of him. He walked forward and saw the dark fire burning in the Dragon Mother Temple. Heart-broken cries came from inside. Meng Xinghe grabbed a Holding a torch in his hand, he slowly walked towards the Dragon Mother Temple.
With every step he took, the hearts of everyone behind him were in their throats.
"Evil man, what are you going to do?" Lu Ning saw Meng Xinghe walking over desperately. She didn't know how many times she had worried about him. This man was really brave. He dared to break in alone even when it was dark inside.
Meng Xinghe turned around and smiled at her: "You are worried about me,"
What time had it been? He was still in the mood to joke. Lu Ning frowned and nodded. Meng Xinghe held a torch in one hand and kicked open the half-closed door of the Dragon Mother Temple. Looking inside by the firelight, he saw that Seeing a white flash passing behind the Dragon Mother statue, he immediately stood in front of the door and said blankly: "Sister Fairy,"
