Farming Happiness: Husband, Come and Plough the Fields

Before leaving, the head of the escort gave Xiao Lingchuan five hundred taels of silver bills, and after the return trip, there was another five hundred taels, which was to be cashed at the place.

The head of the bodyguard threatened him that if he talked nonsense, he would disband in the future. Don't even think about earning any more money from him. The bodyguard runners would exchange their lives for money every time they went. Many people left happily, but never again. been back.

Generally, merchants will be willing to give up money only for valuables. The road is bumpy, and it also depends on luck. If luck is good and smooth, they will make money. It's not enough to see a doctor or treat an injury with a little money.

So for this trip, I will give you one thousand taels. This price is hard to find even with a lantern. There are two unmarried boys in the escort agency, but they are already engaged, and the wedding date is close. Bad stuff, rejected.

"No one told them the truth. I was the only one who put ice on the body. I think it's a good thing that I don't know."

He planned to work harder on his own. As long as the three of them don't make any mistakes and follow them honestly, they will arrive at their ancestral home in about fifteen days, and the return journey will be much easier.

Li Haitang nodded, she had guessed a part of it, the savage was not a talkative person.

"Because transporting the coffin, you can only stay in tents along the way, you can't stay in an inn."

Even if it is an empty coffin, the innkeeper will keep a few people out of the door. When doing business, he is most afraid of causing bad luck, especially the ancients, who are superstitious about this.

In the first few days, Xiao Lingchuan added ice cubes, fearing that the corpse would rot, he had to change it every seven or eight hours, and often had to abandon the nearby trails and take a detour into the city to buy ice cubes.

Perhaps it was his sneaky behavior that attracted the attention of the other three people. Those people did not ask explicitly, but secretly gathered in one place, suspecting that there was a treasure in the coffin.

Many wealthy merchants may have eccentricities, afraid of attracting the attention of bandits, they use coffins to transport jewelry, which is safer. If there is really gold in it, he does not know how much advantage he is taking advantage of behind his back.

Walking for a month, one hundred taels per person plus a small yard, combined into silver, still a lot of money, transporting empty coffins, can you give so much? A few days after leaving, the three smart people suddenly woke up, and they became more and more convinced that there was something tricky behind them.

It was a coincidence that night. After a group of people bought ice cubes in the city and stored them properly, they should be enough for three days. Then they returned to the small road and traveled day and night, just in time for the first day of October in the lunar calendar, the folk cold clothing festival.

As I was walking, a cloud of mist suddenly fell, and the road ahead could not be seen clearly. A few paper money faintly fell from the sky, and the black ash of burned paper money floated in the air.

On both sides of the road, there was a cemetery, with ghost lights floating faintly. They couldn't tell the direction, so they had to stop and rest.

"Then, did you meet anything unclean?"

Li Haitang remembers reading a book, the book introduced that the fog that appears around the ghost festival is actually a kind of miasma, don't walk in the graveyard at night, children are easy to be scared out of their wits, adults are easy to encounter ghosts hitting the wall .

It is said that ghosts hitting the wall is a favorite joke of ghosts. No matter which direction you go, you can’t get out of a strange circle, dangling around, or you will return to the starting point. At this time, you can’t go any further, otherwise a Feet, will step into the gate of hell.

"If we can't get out, we will stop."

Xiao Lingchuan returned to the tent, was too tired from the day's journey, and fell asleep after a while.

In the middle of the night, he was woken up by screams, and when he got out of the tent, the three of them had already opened the coffin together, and they kept one movement, their eyes glazed over to the long-dead daughter in the coffin.

The oil lamp was thrown on the grass not far away, and the lamp oil inside spilled out, igniting the grass and illuminating everything around.

The three of them remained motionless, as if they had been immobilized, and their eyes would not move. Xiao Lingchuan breathed out, only to realize that the three of them were not dead, so he felt relieved.

"The screams I heard were obviously not the three of them, it should be a woman."

After he finished speaking, Li Haitang felt chills on her back, and quickly hid under the quilt. In the wilderness, it had just rained, and it was gloomy. After hearing this, she automatically imagined the scene at that time, and only felt chills all over.

"You, to cut a long story short, just tell me the result."

The middle process can be omitted. The savage obviously doesn't have any language talent, but why is it so scary after exaggerating the atmosphere? He shouldn't have done it on purpose, right?

Xiao Lingchuan's face was serious, and he continued sternly. Li Haitang was afraid, and ignored the deep look in his eyes, "I dragged them into the tent, and they woke up early the next morning."

After the three woke up, their faces turned pale with shock. They were actually curious and wanted to see if there was any treasure in the coffin. When they saw the female corpse, they were unprepared. One of them firmly insisted that the female corpse opened her eyes and let out a cry.

People are scary, people are scared to death, the person who claimed to see the female corpse opened his eyes is not a big problem, but the other two people developed a high fever, were drowsy, and almost died, the last person told the truth, everything was made up by himself, nothing happened .

The head of the bodyguard was too unkind, he withheld one thousand taels of silver, each person could get at most two or three hundred taels, and the rest of the silver was swallowed up, concealing the truth and making them grateful.

"I did hear the woman screaming, but I didn't tell them."

Xiao Lingchuan twitched the corners of his mouth, otherwise, it would not simply be two people who fell ill, and he didn't want to take three patients on the road together.

After resting on the road for two days, the four of them went on the road again. Every night, the three of them would hide in the tent like a frightened bird, and Jia Bing was completely dependent on him.

"Brother Xiao, has the coffin been delivered safely at last?"

It’s okay to lift the lid of someone’s coffin and disrespect the deceased. It’s best to apologize and repent. Although it may not be useful, many times, when you are frightened, you have too much imagination and scare yourself.

"It was delivered safely, but after the three of them returned, they developed a high fever again."

Xiao Lingchuan sighed, he didn't say anything from the beginning to the end.

"The two people who were so frightened before said that on the night of the Cold Clothes Festival, they did hear a woman screaming from inside the coffin..."

Therefore, the one who lied to others to have fun before was not sure whether he had seen or heard, and finally fell ill. Well, the family owed a debt instead.

Xiao Lingchuan also concealed one thing, although the three of them were not married, they had been hanging out with women since they were fourteen or fifteen years old, none of them was a child, and they had evil intentions, so it was not wrong to be targeted by a female ghost.
