Dian Shi said to Qiu Wuhen: "Sir, do you have any ideas for further investigating these cases?"

Qiu Wuhen shook his head: "I don't have a clue right now. I've checked everything I can find, and there's no sign of suicide. Then why did they die? It's really unbelievable. But I guess these four people are not the only ones, there may be others.

, so people were immediately sent to be on guard throughout the city. Once any signs of weirdness were discovered, such as weird behaviors like putting up a big iron pot to pour oil or climbing on the mast, they should be stopped immediately, and the people should be controlled, and then notified

I. Maybe only by catching someone alive can we understand what’s going on.”

This sentence reminded Chief Ke. Dianshi's eyes lit up: "Yes, yes, I will immediately send out manpower to inspect the whole city."

Chief Ke mobilized all the people, including those assigned to each street, and took control immediately once discovered.

Qiu Wuhen said goodbye and returned home.

As I walked along, I suddenly found an old man on the street climbing up a ladder to the roof. Several people below hurriedly said: "What are you doing?"

Qiu Wuhen couldn't help but his heart suddenly moved. He immediately rushed over and asked the others: "What's going on?"

"I don't know, he suddenly took a ladder and put it on the house, and then climbed up without saying a word."

Qiu Wuhen immediately climbed up the bamboo ladder, grabbed the belt of the old man who was climbing up and said, "Stop climbing up. I am Master Xing Ming from the Yamen. You come down with me."

The old man turned his head slightly to look at Qiu Wuhen and said, "Don't stop me, I've got radishes drying on the roof. It's going to snow tonight, I'll go and collect them."

Qiu Wuhen was stunned for a moment.

The person below said: "Oh, stubborn old man, come down quickly and ask your son or grandson to move more quickly. What should you do if you fall down?"

"This bastard will scatter my carrots everywhere, so I'd better go there by myself. - Oh, why are you arresting me? Let go!"

Qiu Wuhen felt that he had made a mistake? He let go of his hand with some embarrassment.

The old man climbed up to the roof again, and sure enough there were a lot of dried radishes on the roof. He collected them all and put them in a cloth bag, and then threw them down from the roof. The two women below caught them.

The old man climbed down again and patted the dust on his body. He looked at Qiu Wuhen curiously and said, "What did you just say? You are from the Yamen, why are you dragging me along? The Yamen won't let you dry radishes now?"

Qiu Wuhen said: "Misunderstanding, I thought you couldn't think about it and were about to jump off the building."

"Jump off a building? I'm only seventy years old this year, and I plan to live to be a hundred years old! What building should I jump off of? I'm really confused."

Others also looked at Qiu Wuhen like a monster. Qiu Wuhen couldn't help but turn around and leave.

From time to time, there were policemen and minzhuangs on the street, and some who knew him quickly nodded in greeting, cupping their fists and saluting.

Qiu Wuhen returned to his home. After knocking on the door, the cow water tank said: "Master, you are back."

"Yes, where are those flowers?"

"The second girl took it and planted it in the front and back of her house."

Qiu Wuhen walked over and came to Su Jinxiang's house. He saw Su Jinxiang was planting with a hoe, and several other people were helping. Qiu Wuhen had the intention to stop it, but after thinking about it, he gave up because there was no one at the moment.

I found anything wrong with this flower. After testing it with medicinal gourds, I found no dreamy effects on it, which is strange.

Just then Su Jinsong came over, beckoned her husband over, and whispered to him: "Come on, let's go inside to discuss things." He then asked the second sister: "Are you all done? Are you here when you are done?

Go inside, the old lady will gather everyone."

Su Jinxiang said: "It's done, I just need to pour some more water."

After washing their hands, they all followed the old lady's main room. Everyone in the house sat around the old lady.

Next to the old lady stood Xie Ma. She glanced at everyone and said, "The house in front has been cleaned up these days and is ready to live in. We have calculated that tomorrow is an auspicious day and we can perform the ceremony of moving in."

"Before this, we just moved in casually. We have to hold a ceremony tomorrow to settle in properly. The Xie family's house is very big, with more than ten places in the yard alone. I'm afraid everyone has some ideas in their minds these days about where they want to live.

Have you made your choice? If you haven’t made your choice yet, let’s take a look around each other. Once you have chosen a place to live, you will officially move in tomorrow. Don’t crowd everyone in the back garden. The back garden will be reserved for your husband. He must study hard.

Don’t let anyone else come in.”

Su Jinxiang was the first to object, saying, "But I just planted all kinds of flowers around the house where I live. If I don't let them come, wouldn't my flowers be in vain?"

Qiu Wuhen said: "Yes, the back garden is given to everyone. How can I have such a big garden to myself?"

But Grandma Su waved her hand and said, "No, I'm the owner of this house and I'll decide it. Second girl, what's the problem with just treating your flowers as sows for your husband? You can just go dig them yourself. You don't want to dig up so many flowers on the street."

The thing is, in the past, one plant cost a penny, but now there are more people selling it. One penny can buy four or five plants, and a basket can be bought for only five pence. We can still spare ten pence. I'll give it to you.

Wouldn’t it be enough to just buy them and plant them in front of and behind your house?”

Su Jinxiang smiled and said: "It doesn't cost the old lady money. I also have some pocket money. If it doesn't work, I'll just dig it out."

Qiu Wuhen waved his hand and said: "No, don't go to Yeji Mountain and Yeji Temple again. They are very weird there. For the sake of safety, I would rather spend some money."

He was worried that the horrific incident would scare Grandma Su. Unexpectedly, although he spoke in an extremely cryptic manner, he still caught Grandma Su's attention and asked with concern: "What happened?"

Su Jinxiang spoke quickly and said: "Two people committed suicide. It was on the cliff on the way to Yeji Temple. One person jumped off and fell to death on the way. The other person dug a hole and collapsed the boulder and killed himself. It was very disturbing.

Weird.”

Grandma Su was stunned. Everyone was worried, especially Su Jinyun who was very angry.

Unexpectedly, Grandma Su waved her hand and said: "It doesn't matter, I can stand it. Actually, I am old, what have I never seen? There are also weird things in our house. In fact, those legends about gods and ghosts are not true.

Some of the legends may be true. For example, last night, I saw something strange. I just didn't tell you because I was afraid that I would scare you if I told you."

Everyone looked at her with concern. Mother Su said, "What is going on?"

Grandma Su glanced at everyone and then said slowly: "Last night, I heard someone...talking under my bed."

One sentence made everyone's scalp numb and they looked at each other in confusion.

The second aunt forced a smile and said, "Isn't the old lady having a nightmare?"

"No, I also called Xie Ma, who was sleeping across the street. She woke up when I called her, and came over immediately to ask me what was wrong. I said I heard a noise under the bed. She lit the lantern and opened it.

I checked under the bed, but there was nothing under the bed."

Everyone's eyes turned to Xie's mother again. Xie's mother nodded and said, "Yes, that's what happened. After the old lady told me, I was really shocked. But when I looked, there was no one, but to be honest

I heard it too. And, not this night, I heard it several nights in a row. The sound was very soft and intermittent. I couldn’t hear clearly what I heard. There were men and women, and sometimes they were joking.

There are sounds, and sometimes there are cries.”

Everyone now felt like someone was blowing air on the back of their heads. There was evidence of this. If Grandma Su had said this, maybe they would have thought that Grandma Su was hallucinating, such as having a nightmare. But now she was sleeping in a

If Mother Xie in the room also said the same thing, then it must be true.

Qiu Wuhen No. 1 Others: "Have you ever heard such a sound?"

The others all shook their heads, but Mother Su nodded and said: "I heard it once too, but I thought it might be the wind outside or something, because it was very light and vague, and it did come from under the bed.

.I looked specifically and couldn’t see it, so I took a bamboo pole and poked it. There was nothing, so I went back to sleep. I thought I was the only one who heard it wrong? Since both the old lady and Xie Ma were like this.

Say, that proves that I heard it right at the time, there was indeed such a sound."

Qiu Wuhen looked at the others again.

The second aunt and the third aunt shook their heads and said: "I've been so exhausted from pulling weeds and washing things these past few days. I sleep like a pig when I touch the pillow and can't wake up at all. Not to mention the Ruowu sound below, it's just

Even if you set off firecrackers in my ears, I might not wake up."

Everyone laughed again.

Qiu Wuhen said: "Since Mom and Grandma Xie have checked that there is no one under the bed, it must be a hallucination. There are many sounds that sound weird and scary, but if you find this sound, it is actually

It's nothing. For example, when I was in the lobby of the government office, we once heard a baby crying, and it turned out that it was a cat meowing, just like a baby crying. It was scary enough before we figured it out. So there were many things that seemed weird.

Actually, once you know the truth, there’s nothing weird about it.”

Everyone nodded.

Only Grandma Su shook her head: "My husband is a man who has read a lot of poems and books. Logically speaking, I can't refute what you said, but this is the only thing I don't agree with, because I heard it really, and the sound came from underground.

Come. If you don’t believe it, ask Mom Xie, she heard it too. And not only from under my bed, but also from under her bed, which means there is really a ghost under our house."

"The Yin Spirit Master you invited last time took away all the bones. She told us at that time that more than two hundred years ago, this place used to be a mass grave. Many people died at that time and the bones were buried.

Here, it’s just buried very deep, so no one knows about it. But I feel a little guilty in my heart.”

Qiu Wuhen said: "What should we do now? Shall we move?"

Grandma Su glared and said: "Where are we moving? We have already made the house clean. Isn't it just a ghost? Let it scream if it wants to. It won't come out anyway, so what are you afraid of? Maybe it can live down there.

I'm lonely and want to chat. Unfortunately, I can't hear clearly what it's talking about. If you can hear it clearly, talk to me, and maybe I'll talk to them too. Sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night and can't sleep, and I'm thinking about how I can sleep well?

Maybe we can sleep after chatting for a while."
