The Witch of Xiangxi

Chapter 160 Zombie Sideshow Troupe
Xia Xiangxi really guessed it right, the boss really brought those zombies to perform juggling.

Xia Xiangxi has heard of "ghost opera". Sometimes people will hear the voice of an opera troupe singing on the road at night. According to folklore, it is probably a powerful official. The troupe and actors were buried, and only then did they meet and set up the stage in the middle of the night.

It was really an eye-opener, Xia Xiangxi didn't know that ghosts would also celebrate her birthday in the underworld, and invited zombies to perform juggling.

Before the stage kicked off, the boss even congratulated a certain old lady on her birthday.

Xia Xiangxi just saw an old lady wearing a blue silk and satin birthday suit, appearing in the center of the ghost group, because her back was facing Xia Xiangxi's direction, she couldn't see her appearance.

A group of ghosts gathered, although the yin energy was heavy, but the hostility energy was very light.Most of the people who want to come here to bury are people who have died of old age, and there is no such heavy resentment left behind.

In addition, it is not uncommon for such people to serve these ghosts and earn money from ghosts.There are indeed some people in this world who use witchcraft or spells to help ghosts in the underworld to do things.This kind of thing mostly originated in ancient times, and it existed before the founding of the People's Republic of China, but it disappeared later.

Grandpa also said such a thing. Grandpa once took in an apprentice. That apprentice was smart and tactful. Grandpa liked him very much back then and taught him all his skills.But that apprentice actually used his ability to work for ghosts, helping ghost messengers and rich ghosts.

One year, on the grandfather's birthday, the apprentice gave the grandfather a piece of porcelain.Although grandpa felt that the porcelain had a certain earthy air at that time, he didn't doubt it too much.Most of the folk porcelain are Ming wares unearthed from ancient tombs, and none of the Ming wares can do without that kind of yin.

It happened so coincidentally that a wealthy family came to grandpa's house to do business, and when they arrived at grandpa's house, they saw the precious porcelain at a glance. At that time, the man didn't say anything, and immediately reported to the government when he left the house. It was the Republic of China, and the warlords were in power. , Indiscriminately, a group of soldiers arrested grandpa and grandpa, and the porcelain was also confiscated.

Grandpa was called wronged at the time, he did not rob or steal, even an official can't just arrest him!

That rich man showed up and said that the porcelain in the grandfather's hand was the top-grade Ru kiln porcelain in the Song Dynasty, and it was priceless. Now, if grandpa hadn't dug up his family's ancestral grave secretly, how could he have obtained this buried treasure?
At that time, grandpa couldn't speak clearly, so he recruited his apprentice.The warlord arrested the apprentice and questioned him, and the apprentice said that the porcelain was obtained by him doing business for the ghost family, and it was not a stolen item.

How could the warlord believe it? The apprentice said that he would invite the ghost who gave him the treasure to testify.The warlords wanted to find out the truth, so they listened.In the middle of the night, the apprentice really invited the ghost.The matter ended like this, and both the grandfather and the apprentice were released.That apprentice refused to admit his mistakes, saying that he was doing things for ghosts because he had accumulative virtues and dealt fairly.The grandfather was so angry that he fell ill and expelled the apprentice from the school.

After the apprentice left the division, he couldn't gain a foothold in the north, so he went to the south with his fellow countrymen in a fit of anger, but just in time for the war in the south to be fierce, that person died under the guns of the rebels.

Believe me, grandpa was also sad for a long time.

Grandpa still remembered how good his grandpa's apprentice was, because at that time grandpa was still young, and grandpa's apprentice treated him well.Once grandpa fell into the pond, it was the man who rescued grandpa from the water, and he was regarded as grandpa's savior.So after Grandpa got seriously ill, besides always talking about Miao Village, he would often talk about that person to Xia Xiangxi, saying that that person was both good and evil, but his behavior was a bit eccentric, just like Huang Laoxie in Jin Yong's works, saying He is a good person, but he is not considered a good person; he is said to be a bad person, but he cannot be found guilty of too much.

At that time, Xia Xiangxi felt that the person grandpa mentioned was like Captain Jack in Pirates of the Caribbean, and it was really difficult to judge good and evil.It seems to be a big mistake in terms of right and wrong, but as that person said, he and the ghost are also fair deals, and he has not done anything that harms others without conscience, so how can it be considered a big evil?

People always love to remember when they are old.Grandpa said it was a pity, he didn't know the real name of that person at that time, and he always called him "Fifth Brother" along with the big guys. Grandpa will also sigh, he doesn't know the real name of the fifth brother, and if the paper money is burned, he doesn't know if the ghost postman can help grandpa deliver it to the fifth brother.

In front of him, Xia Xiangxi saw the old boss who made deals with ghosts that his grandfather mentioned, and immediately thought of the fifth brother that his grandfather mentioned.

At this time, the zombies on that stage were performing arhats.The zombie that was supposed to jump to the top missed the leader and fell headfirst onto the edge of the platform, breaking its head and arms all at once.The head came down from the stage and rushed to the feet of the birthday lady.This time, he got into trouble.

A male ghost in his fifties pointed at the old boss and yelled, "You dead five, how do you do things? My old lady passed her birthday, so it's fine for you to be late, and committing such a taboo, can't you seek death? "

When Xia Xiangxi heard that the male ghost called the boss "Old Five", he suddenly thought, ah, what a coincidence?Is this person who deals with ghosts also the fifth child?Xia Xiangxi couldn't help laughing out loud when he heard the male ghost swearing at him after falling down.They are all ghosts, how can they be unlucky?

Xia Xiangxi also laughed, and that's why she felt bad.Now she must be discovered by those ghosts.Even though these ghosts are not fierce ghosts, she, a witch, can't hold back the ghosts!It is certain that you will suffer at that time.

The male ghost heard the laughter, so he didn't suspect that someone was nearby, he jumped angrily and shouted at the ghosts around him, who laughed that just now?If you dare to make trouble for him, you must not want to live a good life.

If Xia Xiangxi hadn't been scared already, she would really be made to laugh out loud again at this cold joke.They are already ghosts, how can they still live well?
And the ghosts who watched the juggling just now were all afraid of the male ghost, so they shrank back in fright and went back to their respective places.The venue was soon vacated, leaving only the boss, the zombies, and the male ghost's family on the stage.

The old lady in the birthday suit was also annoyed at this time, she left her seat on crutches, and wanted to go back to the ghost tomb.

Seeing this, the male ghost became even angrier, pointing at the boss on the stage and cursing again.

The boss hurriedly apologized, saying that he was killed by someone on the road, and the fallen zombie was torn by a dog. He couldn't find a good needle and thread, so he tied the zombie's body with a branch. , That's why I showed this bad luck, please don't be angry with that male ghost, he doesn't need money for juggling this time.An extra day of acting would be an apology.

But the male ghost was not forgiving, scolded the old Si repeatedly, and said cruelly that the old Si would never leave again today, and asked him to go to the underworld to become a real ghost theater troupe.

Even Xia Xiangxi thought that male ghost was too much.Killing people is nothing more than nodding their heads, and mistakes in performances are also unavoidable things that the troupe and performance troupe will encounter.
