Turbulent Times Chapter 473: Ghost stories and dinner
Nie Xiaoyu had almost sorted out the stories at this time, there were thousands of them, she nodded at this time, found "A Chinese Ghost Story" and began to tell.
A Chinese Ghost Story is a very classic story about a ghost in Liaozhai. In later generations, both movies and TV shows have been remade several times. Of course, the director and screenwriter will definitely make some changes, but it is Pu Song who Nie Xiaoyu found. The most original story in Strange Tales from a Liaozhai Studio, and translated into vernacular that ordinary people who have not read the book can understand.
Strange Tales from a Liaozhai Studio has been very popular for more than 300 years since it was written by Pu Songling in the Qing Dynasty. Wang Junlin believes that these stories appeared to people of this era more than 1,000 years in advance, and the effect should not be too great. Poor.
"Once upon a time, there was a scholar named Ning Caichen. He often said to people: 'I have never been greedy for women in my life'. Once, he went to a place called Jinhua and unloaded his luggage at a place called Lanruo Temple. Rest. Lanruo Temple is very magnificently built, but weeds are overgrown everywhere and there is no trace of people. It looks ghostly. Where the two monks live in the east and west, the doors are ajar. There is only a small house in the south, and the door latch is as new The same..."
The girl showed an interested expression on her face, "Is it a ghost story? It sounds good..."
Nie Xiaoyu ignored her and continued: "...Ning Caichen was just about to go to sleep when he suddenly realized that someone had come to his place. A beautiful woman. Ning Caichen hurriedly asked her why she came here. The woman smiled and said: "I can't sleep at night, I hope to marry you well." Ning Caichen said righteously: "I am afraid that others will say that if I make a mistake I have been hated for thousands of years, and my morality has been lost.' The woman said: 'No one will know at night'..."
Nie Xiaoyu is actually the worst person in the world who is not good at telling stories, because her tone of voice does not fluctuate, let alone the matching expressions and gestures, but the stories she tells are the ones that Zheng Shuyi has heard before best story ever.
"...the woman said: 'Whoever touches me, I will **** his feet with an awl when he is not paying attention, and he will feel confused, so I will **** his blood for the monster to drink Or use gold to confuse them. In fact, it is not real gold but Raksha ghost bones. If people stay, they can take people's hearts and livers. Generally, these two methods are used to seduce them.'Ning Cai The minister thanked the woman and asked when the monsters would come. The woman explained that it would be tomorrow night. When parting, the woman cried and said, "I am in the mysterious sea now, and I can't be reborn. You are righteous, and you can definitely save me from the sea of suffering." .If you can take my ashes and bury them in a place where there are people, I will..."
When talking about this, Wang Junlin suddenly said: "Okay, let's stop here today!"
Nie Xiaoyu stopped obediently, but she paused and said, "Why is this female ghost called Nie Xiaoqian, and you named me Nie Xiaoyu? Could it be that I am a ghost in your mind."
Wang Junlin said with a smile: "You are so beautiful, you are not a ghost, you are still a human."
Nie Xiaoyu was stunned for a moment, and said: "In this way, I am really a ghost."
"Ah!" Suddenly Zheng Shuyi screamed, but then blocked her mouth again, but when she looked at Nie Xiaoyu again, her expression was full of horror.
Just now she was fascinated by the story, and it was described in the story that the female ghost Nie Xiaoqian is very beautiful, just like the sister in front of her who has long recognized the woman's men's clothing. Xiaoyu's conversation, somehow she really believed that Nie Xiaoyu was not a human, but a ghost or something at that moment just now... so she called out.
Zheng Shuyi glanced left and right, and saw that the people beside her who were startled by her had turned their heads away, so she patted her chest and exhaled, and said, "Keep talking, what did that female ghost say about me? What happened next?" It's like..."
"Okay, let's stop here today! You can tell your grandfather the story you just told, and let him try to tell it. I will send someone to send you the follow-up story in a few days, and talk to you by the way. A deal." After Wang Junlin finished speaking, he left with Nie Xiaoyu.
Watching Wang Junlin leave with that beautiful sister who really doesn't seem to be human, her figure quickly disappeared at the gate of Washi City, Zheng Shuyi, who was standing at the gate of her house in Goulan, was even more stunned on her cute pretty face .
The story is only half told, and it stops at the most critical moment, and I can't hear the content behind, which makes people feel itchy and uncomfortable.
"About business? What kind of business can we discuss with us..." The girl murmured in a low voice with a puzzled expression on her face.

When Wang Junlin and Nie Xiaoyu returned to Qin Anhou's mansion, they met the eldest grandson Wuji who came to invite him to a banquet.
It was not the banquet of the grandson's family, but the banquet of the great general Han Qinhu. The reason why no name card was sent was because the banquet was tonight, and the time was just right for departure at this time.
It has to be said that at the critical moment when he fell out of favor and official position, and severely offended the King of Han, Han Qinhu first supported him outright at the court meeting, and now invited him to a banquet at his home. The friendship is indeed worthy of Wang Junlin's gratitude.
Let Nie Xiaoyu go back to the mansion by himself, Wang Junlin didn't even have time to change his clothes, so he was pulled into the carriage by Changsun Wuji and went straight to Han's mansion.
The two of them came to the Han Mansion, and after the servants of the Han Mansion communicated, not long after, they saw a burly figure striding out, dragging Wang Junlin to the mansion without saying a word...
"Wahhahahaha, this is the first time you have come to my house, let's not talk nonsense, drink three bowls of wine and then talk to the old man..."
Wang Junlin was dragged by Han Qinhu. Considering that the old guy is not young, although he is still in good spirits, his physical condition is obviously not good, so he can't struggle, but he can't give up his courtesy. He arched his hands and used a This kind of slightly embarrassing gesture salutes North Korea to catch a tiger.
"Boy...boy pay respects to Uncle Han, Uncle Han is very polite, this..."
"Don't give me this sour ceremony, sit high in the hall, drink big bowls of wine and eat meat, I will be treated by this old man. If you play this kind of fake trick again, this old man will kick you out!"
"Yes, Uncle Han..." Wang Junlin smiled wryly in his heart, but he was kind and humble.
When he arrived at the hall where the Han Mansion used to entertain guests for the night banquet, Wang Junlin discovered that Sun Sheng, the General of the Left Guard, and Yang Lin, the backer Wang, were also here, so he went forward to greet them one by one.
The banquet in the Han Mansion is in line with his status as a general, and he takes a bold and unrestrained line. The wine is a large bowl of Samle pulp, and the meat is boiled into a large piece of beef and venison, and a whole chicken.
Although cattle were equally valuable at this time, it was not like decades later in the Zhenguan period of the Tang Dynasty when private slaughter of cattle was made illegal.
