Ordinary people in the world of Uncle Nine

Chapter 73
...

"No! There was no wind blowing in the town in those few days!"

When Mrs. Huang talked about this, Uncle Jiu frowned. There hasn't been any wind in Renjia Town recently, but it's still a bit muggy these days.

"Please ask the neighbors around to see if they feel the wind that night!"

In order to verify his conjecture, Uncle Jiu asked Huang Laofa to go to the neighbor's house to confirm that it was so sweltering these days, if it was windy, maybe they would have an impression.

And soon Huang Laofa came back from the outside with a look of surprise on his face. Seeing his expression, Uncle Jiu's speculation became more certain in his heart.

"Uncle Nine, I asked a few nearby households, and they all said they didn't hear the wind blowing outside!"

Sure enough, I learned from Huang Laofa that none of the neighbors in the surrounding neighborhood felt the wind blowing nearby that night, except for the wind blowing at their house that night.

"That's right! This is a ghost marriage!"

Uncle Jiu has confirmed that Huang Laofa's daughter met a ghost and got married.

Ghost marriage is a kind of yin marriage. Yin marriage is also known as yin marriage, ghost marriage, and ghost marriage. It is a bad custom that has been passed down for a long time among the people.

In ancient times, people believed that after single men or women passed away, they were afraid that they would be lonely down there, so their parents would choose suitable objects for them to match their yin relatives. There is also a saying that a lonely grave will affect future generations. A ghost marriage is held for the dead.

There are two types of yin marriage: the dead and the dead, and the dead and the living. The former is to find the corpse of the same dead after the death of the deceased.

In Li Mu's world, the more famous yin marriage in history is Cao Cao's son Cao Chong, who died at the age of 13. At that time, Cao Cao hired a dead woman surnamed Zhen as Cao Chong's wife to match them with a yin marriage. .

But with the passage of time, this kind of nature gradually changed. From the beginning, the parents of both parties reached an agreement, and later they stole the corpses of the dead, and in the end, some men and women with suitable horoscopes were brutally killed and used to give When the situation intensified, the imperial court went out to suppress this phenomenon, but this trend is still passed down among the people, especially in some remote areas, where the imperial court's weak supervision is even more prevalent.

The yin marriage between the dead and the living usually has only one son or daughter in the family, and after his death, the parents will spend a lot of money to find a living person as the other half, and someone will worship and return them for them in the future. It is possible to take over the responsibility of caring for an aging parent at home.

But what Xiaoli encountered was obviously neither of the above two types.

"A ghost married? You mean my daughter was taken by a ghost?"

Upon hearing Uncle Jiu's words, Huang Laofa's face changed drastically, and he asked Uncle Jiu for confirmation in fear.

"That's right, has Ling Qianjin been to places like the cemetery recently?"

"No, my daughter seldom goes out. Except for going to the market during the day, she spends her time learning embroidery at home!"

Mrs. Huang shook her head. Her daughter was influenced by her and rarely had contact with outsiders, let alone going to places like cemeteries.

Mrs. Huang's words made Uncle Jiu frowned, which made him a little puzzled. Judging from the current situation, the other party's target is clearly Huang Xiaoli.

But not going out means no chance to provoke the other party, so how did he find Huang Xiaoli?
After asking this question to Huang Laofa and his wife, they looked at a loss, so Uncle Jiu had no choice but to put the question aside.

"Master, what is the meaning of the days that Huang Xiaoli is talking about?"

At this time, Li Mu became suspicious of what Huang Xiaoli said.

Li Mu's words made Uncle Jiu's body tremble, and he hurriedly dragged Huang Lao to ask anxiously.

"How many days has your daughter been like this?"

"It's been five or six days, what's the matter, Uncle Jiu, is there something wrong?"

Huang Laofa looked at Uncle Jiu ignorantly and said, and after Uncle Jiu heard it, he calculated according to what Huang Xiaoli said just now that there was one day left, that the ghost groom would come to marry Xiaoli on the seventh day.

And today is exactly the sixth day, that is to say, after tonight, the other party will appear at this time tomorrow.

"There is still one more day. Before dark tomorrow, check to see if anyone in the town has died recently. Mostly single youths!"

Seven days, it happened to be the night when a person returned to the soul after death, and the other party found Huang Xiaoli so familiarly, it was obvious that she had known her before his death, and might even be someone who liked Huang Xiaoli.

As for why it took seven days to marry Xiaoli, it was because the other party hadn't been able to show up before that, and could only make a marriage contract with Huang Xiaoli through dreams to consume her anger. One day to marry Xiaoli.

After explaining the ins and outs of the matter to everyone, Uncle Jiu first prescribed a medicine for Huang Xiaoli to replenish her depleted vitality.

After someone boiled the medicine and gave it to Xiaoli, they saw that her complexion was obviously better than before.

"Uncle Jiu, what should we do next?"

At this time, it was still dark, and everyone in the town hadn't woken up yet, even if Huang Laofa wanted to inquire, he couldn't do it.

"Let Ling Qianjin go to your room to rest tonight, I will arrange a formation to isolate her breath, so that the other party can't find her, but this will also scare the snake!"

Now the only link between the other party and Xiao Li is through dreams, and once the breath is cut off, the other party will be vigilant if they can't find Xiao Li, and I'm afraid they won't show up easily!
In this way, even if Xiao Li is saved now, it is inevitable that the other party will make a comeback in the future.

Now the other party has spent seven days in trouble because of lack of strength. Once they are given time, they may not be given time to react the next time they commit a crime. After all, Uncle Jiu and the others cannot be by Xiaoli's side every day.

"Then is there any other way?"

As soon as he heard that it was possible to scare the snake and let the other party notice, although Huang Laofa felt sorry for his daughter's state, he still understood the truth that if you beat a snake and survive, you will inflict harm on yourself.

"I have a method here. Use Xiaoli as a bait to set a trap in your house, and when the other party shows up, trap him inside and get rid of it once and for all."

Uncle Jiu would naturally not be merciful to this kind of ghost who disregarded the life and death of others for his own selfish desires. After explaining the plan to Huang Laofa and his wife, he comforted the two and returned to Yizhuang with Li Mu.

"Master, is it okay for us to leave like this?"

On the way, Li Mu asked Uncle Jiu with some doubts, if the two of them have left, is it really okay to leave Huang Laofa's family behind?
"It's okay, this ghost groom hasn't matured yet, they are still safe tonight."

"But why does the soul of a person who just died have such great ability to turn Huang Xiaoli into this?"

As usual, the ghost who just passed away is still in a state of confusion at this time. It shouldn't have such great abilities. Even if it is a dream, it can only be given to relatives. Huang Xiaoli and him have confirmed that they have invaded her dream. This made Li Mu a little puzzled.

"You can ask him at that time, what makes him obsessed so deeply!"
