The day after the Winter Clothes Festival, the Jumping River Ghost returned to the prison. The Sleeping Ghost asked if there was any way to turn Bao Maoying, whom he had a crush on for a long time, into a ghost girl in order to marry Qin and Jin.
Unexpectedly, he jumped into the river and said there was nothing he could do. However, River Jumping Ghost and Sleeping Ghost whispered for a while, telling him to do this. Sleeping Ghost's heart, which had dropped to freezing point, suddenly reached boiling point again. He held Tiaojianggui's hand tightly and said, I will do as you ask.
The ghosts imprisoned in the City of Fusi are not only released during the three ghost festivals such as Qingming Festival, Hungry Ghost Festival and Hanyi Festival every year, and can go to their birthplace and the location of their relatives in the Yangshi to receive sacrificial items, there are also ghosts every week. One day off is 4 days off in a month. Generally speaking, one cannot just run into the underworld without permission. If one runs out and is discovered by the Yin Chai officer with an ox-headed horse face or black and white capriciousness, he will be arrested and sent to a place where the underworld is imprisoned and tortured.
If some ghosts escape and do not come back for more than half a month, the King of Hell will tell the official tomorrow and order the Thunder God and Lightning Lady to use the electric eyes that can see thousands of miles away to observe the target. Once the escaped ghost is found, thunder will be struck to kill it.
Then the ghosts of the dead become loose spirits - ghosts, attached to lower animals such as insects and ants; then they are no longer qualified to be ghosts. It is even more difficult to reincarnate as an animal or sentient being at a slightly higher level, and it can be said to be an eternity.
Before all the imprisoned ghosts were released, the underworld officer explained the stakes to them, so the ghosts generally did not dare to overstep their duties. Sleeping Ghost was even more honest. He followed Ghost Jumping River's instructions and went out of Fusi City on Sunday instead of running around. Instead, he went directly to the streets of Fengdu City to find a ghost boss who was in the bow and arrow business and worked as a volunteer in his store. The ghost boss is short of manpower and cannot get what he wants.
The ghost boss grew up like a burly man. He was a powerful archer during his lifetime. He loved to shoot wild geese and his skills were very good. If a flock of wild geese were flying in the sky, he would be able to hit whichever one you pointed at. ; If you ask him to shoot the goose's left eye or right eye, he nocks the arrow on the string, and with a "swish" sound, a goose in the sky will fall down due to the left or right eye of the arrow, which will make you amazed. .
That autumn, the archer looked at a group of south-flying geese and actually shot down a male goose. A moment later, a female goose swooped down from the sky, hit her head on a stone slab, and died together with her partner. The archers admire the courage of the mother goose to die for her love, and the same goes for the orderly flock of geese arranged in a single or herringbone pattern in the sky. Like humans, they also admire "benevolence, justice, etiquette, wisdom and trust".
After realizing this, he was so ashamed that he immediately dug a hole and buried the two dead geese. From then on, he stopped shooting geese and no animals. He even went to the temple to ask an enlightened monk to recite sutras to liberate the dead geese he had shot before. All geese and other animals.
He destroyed his bow and arrows, returned home and devoted himself to farming, cherishing insects, birds and other animals, and becoming a vegetarian as an atonement for his past killings. In this way, he lived to an old age and died without illness. After his death, his soul came to the underworld. The king of hell respected him and asked him to make more bows and arrows, which would be of great use.
He began to politely refuse with concern, "Lord Hell, bows and arrows are tools used to create killing karma. Can you let me do something else?" The King of Hell smiled and said, I asked you to make bows and arrows to kill the wicked ghosts who made a living by riding and shooting birds and beasts during their lifetime. They were ungrateful and committed countless evils. Only by punishing them can the grievances of the birds and beasts gathered like clouds be quelled. I told you to shoot the good guys!
Besides, the bows and arrows in the underworld are called Yin bows and Yin arrows; the bows and arrows in the Yang world are called Yang bows and Yang arrows. They are different. It's good that you have good thoughts that are afraid of causing killing, but don't worry about it.
The former archer understood what he was saying and immediately told the King of Hell that it was better to obey his orders than to be respectful. After that, he returned to his old business in the Yang world - making bows and arrows. The difference was that they were handed over or sold to the judicial department of the underworld, and then distributed to the corresponding hells, so that he could use the bows and arrows to kill evil ghosts who owed heavy blood debts to birds and beasts. .
Due to his many years of business in bows and arrows, he opened a store on the street in Fengdu City. The business became more and more prosperous, so he became a ghost boss in a proper manner.
Sleeping Ghost volunteered to work as a volunteer in Boss Ghost's store for four days a month. The ghost boss was very grateful and asked An Yangui if he had any requirements and would try his best to satisfy him. He said that he just wanted to learn how to draw a bow and shoot arrows, so that he could find a job in the underworld and become a ghost servant in hell, so that he could use his bow and arrows to kill guilty souls who deserved to be punished.
Well! The ghost boss promised that he would ask Sleeping Ghost to choose a bow and a few arrows and take them to the wild for practice. He also solemnly told you that these dark bows and arrows are only for you to practice, and you should not shoot innocent people randomly and cause trouble.
After getting the bow and arrow, Sleeping Ghost said happily, "Okay," and walked out of the store, crossed a few streets, left Fengdu City, crossed the Yin and Yang Realm, and came to the hillside with a single-family house on the outskirts of Jinse City in Yangshi, looking for The girl he would never forget before his death - Bao Maoying.
Sleeping Ghost really found Bao Maoying. She was dressing and washing herself by the creek at the foot of the slope in front of her house. Her black hair reflected in the creek like a dark cloud, like a green waterweed swaying. It was really beautiful. Extremely. A middle-aged woman sitting on the beach next to me smiled and said, not bad. You are handsome by nature, and a little dressing up will make you look even better.
Bao Maoying said, "Matchmaker, don't praise me. Please take me to meet the young man in the city who I have never met before. I can't do it casually." The matchmaker nodded and saw Bao Maoying picking up a bottle of perfume and spraying the perfume on her washed, fluffy black hair, so she started teasing, "Mao Ying, you made it smell so good, don't charm the young men in the city to death." .
Bao Maoying smiled and answered, "Do I have that ability?" I really charmed this young man to death, so why should I take responsibility? She grinned. The matchmaker said, where? You can only charm the young man so much that he will follow you around. When the time comes, the man will give you keepsakes and other gold and silver ornaments, which will be all over your head and hands. You will be dressed in jewels, graceful and luxurious, and you will be worthy of a princess!
When Bao Maoying heard this, she should have been happy, but her face darkened. That was because she suddenly remembered that Dong Pai, an old man who had passed the year of his destiny not long ago, quietly rushed to her house to give her a gold medal. She doesn’t want the ring, but she finds this approach disgusting. She subconsciously forgot about it, and a trace of smile lines immediately appeared on her face, saying thank you to the matchmaker for her kind words, and I hope that one day I can Bao Maoying.
I won't let you have that day. It turned out that An Miangui, who was already standing opposite her, said this seriously, and he shot a Yin arrow that was already on the Yin bow string towards Bao Maoying, hitting her body. Soul.
Bao Maoying, who lives in the invisible world - Yangshi, cannot see the foreign objects attacking her. She only feels a little dizzy. As she packs her toiletries and walks from the ditch to the dirt road, she frowns and says to the matchmaker, "I suddenly feel a little uncomfortable." , I don’t know how it happened? The matchmaker said worriedly, Mao Ying, have you changed your mind? I made an agreement with the young man from North Street in the city, telling him not to go anywhere today and just wait on the street for me to take you to meet him for a blind date.
Matchmaker, where did I change my mind? Bao Maoying said, trying hard to cheer up, but he was still listless.
The matchmaker saw that her face turned pale and her complexion became worse, so she believed that she was telling the truth. Then he said, let’s change it another day! Hurry up and go to the nearby Ma'anshan Hospital to see a doctor. Once your body recovers and your spirit improves, I will take you to the city to meet that young man.
She looked at the pair of casual shoes with thick rubber soles and blue uppers on her feet, and her heart was full of gratitude: The young man who asked me to do the matchmaking bought them for me. Before the matchmaking was completed, they gave me a pair of shoes. It was really So generous! By the way, I have to rush to the city alone now, otherwise the young man will still wait in the city. If I don't explain, he will blame me for not keeping my words.
After hearing this, Bao Maoying turned around and asked, why did that young man in the city fall in love with a country girl like me? The matchmaker said that some time ago, that young man went on an outing in Ma'anshan and passed by your door. You may not have noticed. He glanced at you and thought that you were tall, pure and elegant, and he liked you, so he asked me to find you. Matchmaking.
Bao Maoying said, I never look at people, so I didn’t pay attention. Her head was getting more and more dizzy. After saying goodbye to her matchmaker on the ramp, she went home and put down her toiletries, then walked out of her courtyard and walked straight to the nearby Ma'anshan Hospital.
