Late that night, Yin Manyuan couldn't sleep because Ma Lingxiang moaned in pain. He was very annoyed, so he took two weights of cotton wool and stuffed them into his ears to avoid the sound and help him fall asleep.
When he entered the borderline state between light sleep and deep sleep, he suddenly felt that someone had pulled away the two weights of cotton stuffed in his ear holes. He also heard a slightly familiar male voice but couldn't remember who it was, yelling, "Dog Officer," Do you know who I am?
Because the lights were turned off, the room was dark, and Ma Lingxiang's moans were never heard again. Where has she gone? Why did a man come into the room?
Remember the front door of this building was not bolted at night? Besides, the bedroom door is also tightly closed. Who took the courage of a leopard and dared to break into the residence of my dignified magistrate Yin County? Aren't he afraid of being questioned and punished? Yin Manyuan was very angry and immediately got up and lit the lamp. The man was still swearing at him and calling him a dog official.
Yin Manyuan stared intently, where could there be any man? But it was Ma Lingxiang who pointed at him fiercely and yelled furiously. The scream was not like the sweet and coy female voice he was used to hearing from Ma Lingxiang, but a rough male voice - Dog Officer, let me tell you. , I am none other than Lu Hu, who was executed after you found a reason to convict me. You are such a lustful official, and when you see my wife Ma Lingxiang being pretty, you kill me, take her away, and make her your own.
You were originally guilty of a capital crime, executed yourself privately, and drowned a man named Jian Ming in the Moon River. As the magistrate of Shapo County, now that I know about this unjust case, it is natural for me to severely punish the perpetrators. What's wrong with that?
Don't say it so high-sounding. The drunkard's intention is not to drink, but to possess my beautiful wife. I also know that if my wife is not beautiful, you will not have desire. Even if you know about it, you will not bother to deal with this unjust case of human life that did not occur during your term of office. I know the little Jiujiu in your heart very well! You dog official, if you really judge the case impartially, execute me to death, and really avenge the deceased, I will have nothing to say, and I will not come back to cause trouble after being executed by you, and Hades will not allow it. I come to you now to settle accounts with the permission of Hades. The gods of Hades know that you used it to redress the grievances of the deceased and execute me to achieve the purpose of possessing my beautiful wife. Dog Officer, please think about yourself, is what I said wrong correct?
Yin Manyuan was shocked, had nothing to say, and his face was as pale as dirt. He always went to court in the Yamen to accuse prisoners, but now he was like a prisoner, being scolded and scolded by Lu Hu, whose soul was possessed by Ma Lingxiang.
At this moment, the possessed Lu Hu changed the subject again and said angrily, Ma Lingxiang is not a good person. I followed you and forgot about me. Other women are keeping their wives and chaste, but what about her? If you don't defend anything, if you don't protect anything, you are just a bitch; a ruthless bitch. Just because of this, I hate her too.
do you know? Didn't she have a swollen lump as big as a duck egg on her left eye? Let me tell you, it was my clone that turned into a poisonous cell that parasitized on her left eye. This is something that no doctor can cure. I just want to turn her into an ugly monster. Look at you, you lecherous dog official. , do you still want her?
Yin Manyuan knelt down, looked at Ma Lingxiang sitting on the bed, possessed by Lu Hu, and begged, Master Lu, please spare me! Also spare your ex-wife Ma Lingxiang.
You are delusional, give me your life. Lu Hu possessed him and said, "Although I secretly killed the man named Jian Ming, he deserves to die. If he doesn't maintain that kind of relationship with my wife for a long time, will I kill him?"
Yin Manyuan could have quarreled with him, but felt that there was no way to win or lose, and it was not the time to show off, so he just lowered his head and kept saying, I'm sorry, I was wrong...
But when he looked up, he heard Ma Lingxiang's painful moan. It was a female voice that was obviously familiar to him. He also heard the crowing of chickens in the distance.
It can be seen that Lu Hu's ghost attached to Ma Lingxiang has left. Yin Manyuan was still frightened, looking at Ma Lingxiang, who was once a beauty but now extremely ugly, and asked, "What happened to you just now?" Ma Lingxiang cried and said, "Lu Hu just possessed me and pushed me aside. No matter how I screamed, you couldn't hear me." Yin Manyuan waved his hands in despair, "Forget it, forget it, I don't want to say anything anymore."
In the next few days, Yin Manyuan was so frightened that he had no intention of taking care of the political affairs in the yamen, let alone raising the case to court.
He always claimed that he was not feeling well, and even if he put aside all the important things he needed to do, he would ask the yamen servants to invite a few Taoist priests from other places to come to his home to do the rituals, but it still didn't work.
That time, Lu Hu's ghost possessed Ma Lingxiang again, and scolded the Taoist priest for meddling in other people's business, saying that I came here to collect debts from my enemies because I received a decree from the underworld. Can you demons stop me if you come here and mess around? If you don't get out of here quickly, I'll go back to Hades and file a complaint, saying that you are pretending to be gods and fooling people in order to get some money for support. When Hades comes to investigate, I'm afraid you won't be able to protect yourself. At this point, Lu Hu burst into laughter, and the laughter resounded throughout the entire residence of Magistrate Yin, making people feel suddenly eerie and terrifying.
Several Taoist priests all left knowingly. One of them whispered to Yin Manyuan before leaving, it seems that if you can find Lu Hu's tomb, kowtow to him, admit your mistake, and strive for his forgiveness, this grievance may be solved. can be resolved. There is no other way to resolve it now. Otherwise, both you and your wife, Ma Lingxiang, will be uncomfortable and in danger.
After hearing this, Yin Manyuan asked the government servant to find a divination master for him to perform divination. He followed the Taoist priest's instructions, but it didn't seem to work. But the divination master was mysterious. He started to cast divination after he had cleansed his hands and burned incense. He threw a half-horn-like hexagram tool three times at the right time. The divination master picked it up again and again, and finally sighed and said, "Yin Zhixian, it's not good!" If the hexagram is not prosperous, it is a weak hexagram. It seems that even if you do what the Taoist said, it won't work.
At home, Ma Lingxiang refused to go out all day because the duck-egg-sized lump on her left eyelid kept getting rid of and she became very ugly. Yin Manyuan hated looking at her more and more, and even threatened to give her some money to ask her to return. If you go to your parents' house, don't come. Ma Lingxiang refused, saying, "How can I meet people like this?" If you want me to go back to my parents' home, you might as well ask me to die. Yin Manyuan said with a straight face, "You're scaring me. Am I the one you're scaring?"
That evening, the afterglow of the setting sun shone on the Moon River as red as blood, and slowly it became dark. Two water ghosts were having a midnight snack on the beach, eating loach, shrimp and clam shells with relish.
Suddenly he heard the sound of horse hoofbeats. Jianming looked up and lowered his head without saying a word. He stopped eating and walked to the river bank.
Qi Wu looked up and saw a white horse galloping over in the wilderness. There were two men and women sitting one behind the other on the horse. The woman hugged the man's waist tightly, and the man waved his whip as a show, but did not whip.
The white horse runs very fast because it does not raise its whip but raises its hooves. The white horse approached the Moon River. As soon as the man pulled the reins, the white horse stopped and snorted.
Now Qi Wu understood why Jian Ming walked away. He probably didn't want to see the woman in beautiful clothes sitting on the white horse.
She was Jian Ming's former lover Ma Lingxiang. She wore a green woolen hat at an angle, with the left brim pulled down to cover her left cheek. She also lowered her head and remained silent.
That man was of course Yin Manyuan, who was wearing a yellow official robe. He was not as energetic as the last time I saw him.
This time, he had a gloomy face and looked very worried. Suddenly, he pushed away Ma Lingxiang's hand around his waist and said to get off the horse, and he turned over and got off the horse first.
Ma Lingxiang said, Yin Lang, didn't you say you would take me to the Yinjiazhuang in front to find a local man to ask for some earth remedies to treat the lump on my left eyelid? How did you come to the river? It's dark again, why do you want me to dismount? Yin Manyuan said, go for a walk on the beach on the opposite side of the river to relax. The scenery here is beautiful. When I was a child, I played here and even fished and touched shrimps! It was very interesting, so I have feelings for this river. Come down and walk with me! Anyway, it’s not far from Yinjiazhuang. You can get on your horse and whip your whip and you’ll be there in the blink of an eye. Are you in a hurry?
Ma Lingxiang had no choice but to dismount. She still wore her green woolen hat diagonally, only half of her face was exposed, and she looked pale and thin. She followed Yin Manyuan towards the tidal flat by the river. Qi Wu kept staring at her, then approached Jian Ming on the river bank and said, "Why are you avoiding her?" Anyway, you are a ghost and she is a human. She cannot see you. Even if you stand under her eyes, she cannot see you. There is no need to avoid you. Jian Ming let out a "hum" and still lowered his head.
