Qiu Wuhen was so happy that she quickly said to the medicine gourd in her mind: "Thank you for your help."

The medicine gourd swayed twice and said, "You fully deserve this."

Qiu Wuhen happily stood up and bowed to Fei Zhixian: "In this case, thank you magistrate for your commendation. I will do my best to assist the magistrate in managing the place."

The magistrate laughed loudly and felt a stone fall in his heart. He was really worried that Qiu Wuhen would not want to go.

After hearing what he said, he said happily: "Inspection inspections are actually jointly managed by the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Personnel, and the same is true for local areas. Local officials are also officials in the city, because you may also be responsible for local public security and bandit suppression.

Work."

"Of course I'm only responsible for your small area, not the entire county. Don't worry about it now. We'll discuss it later when the official hat is firmly on. Leave everything to me. Just wait for the good news."

Qiu Wuhen left the Yamen and returned home. He planned to wait until he got the appointment letter and was about to take office before telling the old lady and the others, so as not to be happy in vain.

In the evening, Qian Jinzhi came first, bringing a lot of exquisite dishes and a jar of fine wine. She came to the Su family and said she wanted to calm the Su family because the Yin Spirit Master was coming to catch ghosts tonight.

After the banquet was served, Master Yin Ling came. Grandma Su thought that she would have to spend some time to invite her before she was willing to join the banquet. But as soon as she said it, she agreed immediately, but she asked that she could only put vegetarian food in front of her, but she didn't mind.

Share a table with others.

This made Grandma Su a little scared but also very happy. It seemed that this master was really no different from ordinary people.

Fortunately, Qian Jinzhi had already anticipated this and brought several plates of vegetarian dishes with brand new bowls and chopsticks placed in front of her.

Master Yin Ling ate and drank tea with everyone. Although Qiu Wuhen's family's current living standard was acceptable, Su Jinsong was still reluctant to give up money and saved the money so that her husband-in-law could go to Beijing to take the exam.

.

Therefore, the family has limited it to two pieces of meat per meal. Fortunately, Qiu Wuhen insists on eating white rice.

After the banquet, Master Yinling went down the rope to the well, and they covered it with a board. Then everyone exited the house and went back to their own rooms, trying not to make any noise so as not to disturb Master Tai.

Unexpectedly, the bell was rang at the second watch. Qiu Wuhen and the others had already made an agreement with Yinling Master Tai to ring the bell as a signal to indicate that she was coming up.

Qiu Wuhen and the others heard the sound and ran over quickly, opened the cover, and pulled her up.

The Yin Spirit Master was so frightened that his face turned pale and he said, "There are really ghosts, and there are so many ghosts with different sounds. It's really scary. No, no, no, I can't do it. Say goodbye!"

Saying that, he hurriedly walked out.

Qiu Wuhen was really shocked. Didn't the master vow to catch ghosts for the Su family before? Why was he so scared now?

Qiu Wuhen couldn't stop her and kept sending her to the door.

Master Yin Ling stopped too quickly, turned around and said to Qiu Wuhen, Qian Jinzhi and others: "You should no longer live in this house and move out as soon as possible."

After she left in a hurry, they returned to the inner house. No one spoke, they all looked scared.

An old nun who meditates in a tomb can't get rid of these ghosts, so who else can she do?

For a while, no one dared to go back to their rooms to sleep, so they might as well sleep with the old lady. Anyway, her room was big, so she could move a few small beds and squeeze them in.

Of course, Qiu Wuhen and Su Jinsong still slept in their attic, not in the same room as the old lady and the others.

As a result, Qiu Wuhen and Su Jinsong had just returned to the attic to wash up and get ready for bed when they heard the old lady screaming.

The two of them hurried over to take a look. All the women from the Su family came out pale with fright and stood in the yard at a loss.

After Qiu Wuhen asked, he learned that they heard ghosts crying and wolf howling again, so he could only suggest: "Why not move outside and live in the guest room temporarily first."

Grandma Su nodded in agreement, but said to Qiu Wuhen with doubts: "Master Zhang said that you are very stubborn and are not afraid of ghosts and gods at all. Why can't you control these ghosts?"

Qiu Wuhen smiled bitterly: "I can't listen to his words."

His wife Su Jinsong didn't like hearing it anymore and said, "Husband, Zhang Tianshi's words are very effective. You can't say that."

Qiu Wuhen thought for a while and said, "How about we go like this? I'll go down into the well to see what's going on and see if I have the ability to eradicate these monsters."

Of course Qiu Wuhen didn't believe in the theory of ghosts, but he was a little curious about what it was that could scare the soul of a teacher who was practicing meditation in a grave, Taidu, so he decided to go and have a look.

Su Jinsong immediately objected: "No, you haven't learned Taoism. How can you go down and catch ghosts? If you are going to be caught by ghosts, who will our family rely on?"

"The old lady didn't just say that my life is very tough, that's what Zhang Tianshi said. And you also said that Zhang Tianshi's words are absolutely effective. Since they all say that I have this ability, there is nothing to be afraid of."

Su Jinsong was speechless, and Qian Jinzhi said, "Don't worry, I'm here with you. I'll go down with Mr. Qiu, and I'll take care of you if anything happens."

Qiu Wuhen turned to look at her: "Are you really not afraid?"

"There is nothing to be afraid of. As you said, the so-called gods and ghosts are just that we have not figured out the reasons for them. In fact, they are all false."

"Although I don't really believe what you said, the strange things that happened before have been proven to be in line with the reasons you said and can be explained. So I believe it will be the same this time. Let's go down and find out the reasons.

Bar."

After a good discussion, the two of them used ropes to hang down the well, along with two lanterns. Fortunately, the well was dug quite large during the excavation, so it would be no problem for two people to go down and add lanterns.

The Su family members were extremely nervous up there, and Su Jinsong kept telling her husband to remember to ring the bell immediately when they were in danger, and they would pull them up.

It was difficult for a group of weak women to pull Qiu Wuhen up, but fortunately there was a water puller, which saved much effort.

Qiu Wuhen agreed, and the two of them went down to the bottom of the well. The well mouth was covered with wooden boards, and two lanterns illuminated the well brightly.

Qian Jinzhi took a look and found that although the ground was flat, she still didn't want to sit down.

Qiu Wuhen didn't care about that, he sat cross-legged on the ground and said, "I'm going to close my eyes and rest my mind now, and listen carefully to what's going on."

"Okay, I can listen even while standing."

Qiu Wuhen stopped paying attention to her and closed his eyes. But at this moment, the faint howling of ghosts and wolves really reached their ears. It was loud and small, near and far. They couldn't hear it clearly, but the sound was indeed there.

At this time, a hand grabbed Qiu Wuhen's shoulder. Qiu Wuhen was startled. He quickly opened his eyes, turned around and saw that it was Qian Jinzhi.

She looked pale, grabbed the bell and kept shaking it, and said in a hurry: "Let's go, let's go, it's really a fierce ghost. Neither of us know how to catch ghosts, let's go quickly."

Qiu Wuhen shook his head and said, "I haven't heard clearly yet. If you want to leave, you can leave."

At this time, the top cover was opened, and Su Jinsong's anxious voice said: "Ms. sir, are you okay down there? We'll pull you up right away, don't worry."

Qiu Wuhen raised his head and said, "No need, I'm fine down there. You just need to pull Shopkeeper Qian up. She's scared."

Qian Jinzhi gritted his teeth, raised his head and said, "No, it's okay. I accidentally touched the bell just now. Please close the cover."

Su Jinsong felt relieved when he heard that her husband was fine. He put the cover back up again, and the Su family all retreated again, restoring peace and quiet.

Qian Jinzhi finally slowly squatted down and leaned next to Qiu Wuhen. The voice began to get louder and louder, getting closer and further away.

She was so frightened that she closed her eyes, grabbed Qiu Wuhen's arm with her hands, buried her head in her arms, and did not dare to look around.

Qiu Wuhen opened his eyes wide, but all he saw were walls and no ghosts.

The sound is always there, getting louder and louder, and it is extremely noisy, but it is not clear what the sound is.

It seemed like someone was talking and yelling, but nothing could be heard clearly.

Qiu Wuhen tried to put his ear against the cave wall and listen. This was a little better, but he still couldn't hear any source. He listened to everything from the front, back, left, and right, including the ground, and the same thing happened.

But every time he moved somewhere, Qian Jinzhi moved her body to follow him, still holding his hand tightly, so tired that his hand ached.

Qiu Wuhen said angrily: "With all your virtue, you came down to protect me. You are so scared and you don't want to leave."

"You, why aren't you scared at all?"

"What's there to be afraid of? The ghost won't come out and the ghost is just screaming down there. What's the point of screaming!"

"Don't say that, it will scare people to death. Grandpa Gui, Tong Yanwuji, don't listen to him, we have no intention of seeing you."

Qiu Wuhen said: "Okay, stop talking and let me listen to what they are talking about."

Qian Jinzhi quickly shut up, still holding Qiu Wuhen's arm tightly, burying her head in her arms, and pressed close to him. It seemed that only in this way could she absorb the power of not being afraid of ghosts in him and calm her down.

They stayed like this until the fourth watch, and the voice gradually became quieter. Qian Jinzhi was also very sleepy after a night of torture, but she didn't feel sleepy at all.

After hearing the voice decrease, he immediately said to Qiu Wuhen: "Otherwise we should leave quickly, it's really scary."

Qiu Wuhen said: "I want to wait until the sound completely disappears."

At this time, the cover opened a crack, and Su Qingsong's voice said: "Mr. sir, what do you think? Do you want to pull you up?"

Qiu Wuhen said: "No need, wait a little longer until the sound is completely gone. The sound is much quieter now. They are probably tired from having been noisy all night."

Su Jinsong agreed and closed the cover again.

Waiting until dawn, the sound finally disappeared completely.

Qiu Wuhen tugged at his ears and turned to look at Qian Jinzhi.

Qian Jinzhi turned pale and said, "Why are you not scared at all? I was scared to death. If you weren't around, I would have been scared to death."

"The ghost has gone home, it's time for us to leave."

They grabbed the rope and rang the bell. The Su family also stayed up all night and waited. When they heard the bell, they ran over quickly, opened the cover and dropped them both out.
