Longevity starts with learning

"The Li family's daughter-in-law is a famous beauty from all over the country. It's a pity that she met a useless husband. In order to pay off the gambling debt, she actually sold her to a brothel..."

"The Li family's wife was also strong-willed and hanged herself in the brothel that night."

"How could the bully of the brothel just give up and find the Li family the next day with the body of the Li family's daughter-in-law?"

"That was a lot of trouble. The entire Li family was evacuated, and all the men in the Li family were beaten half to death..."

"But even so, the man from the Li family remained stubborn and ran to the casino again that night. The body of the Li family's daughter-in-law was left there. The kind-hearted neighbor nearby helped restrain it and took it outside the city. Buried."

"Everyone thought that this matter would just go away, and the Li family would be defeated like this."

"But what happens next, I'm afraid you can't imagine..."

Speaking of this, the storyteller suddenly became more critical, which immediately attracted the audience to urge him one after another. Those who knew enough began to stuff coins into the money jar in front of the storyteller.

Even Chu Mu couldn't help but be a little curious.

According to what the storyteller said, it seems that it is not difficult to guess what will happen next. If the man of the Li family is so virtuous, the fall of the Li family is undoubtedly inevitable. It is not impossible to say when, and it is not impossible to die outside.

But looking at the storyteller's pretentiousness, it is clear that things are not that simple.

After Chu Mu picked up the teacup and took a sip, his eyes seemed to focus on the storyteller again.

"I'm afraid you won't believe it, but this is really the case."

"On the eighth day after the death of the Li family's daughter-in-law, the man from the Li family suddenly went crazy when he woke up from his sleep. He begged for mercy and admitted his mistake when he saw anyone, and even mentioned the name of the Li family's daughter-in-law..."

"The bully who ran the brothel was also found hanged in the brothel. The most horrifying thing is that the room where the bully hanged himself was actually the same room where the Li family's wife hanged herself. Even the location of the hanging was exactly the same..."

The storyteller's eloquence is really good. When he said this, the chaos in the restaurant suddenly subsided, and there was almost silence. Even Chu Mu suddenly felt a deep chill suddenly enveloped his whole body.

"Really or not...can't it be the resentful spirit of the Li family's wife?"

After a while, someone finally asked something.

"I don't know anything about this matter, but when the people who came from the inspection station even the county captain were alarmed, they didn't find out the reason. In the end, it became an unsolved case..."

"But if I think about it, reincarnation in the world will bring unfavorable retribution. Even if the Li family's daughter-in-law turns into a resentful spirit and comes to take revenge, it is only natural..."

The storyteller took a sip of tea, shook his head and said calmly.

Chu Mu couldn't help but be startled when he heard the words "inspection station". He thought the storyteller was telling a story, but why was he talking about an accident?

"Why have I never heard of such a mysterious thing? Old Man Li, you couldn't have made this up, right?"

Others questioned it, but as soon as he finished speaking, before the storyteller spoke, someone in the audience spoke up to defend him.

"This is really true. It's just that I was still young when it happened. It caused panic in the city. The inspection department didn't find out for a long time..."

"Yes, I have also heard from my grandfather about this matter. They all said that the resentful spirit of the Li family's daughter-in-law was seeking her life. By the way, the man from the Li family seems to be still alive. There is a madman at the south gate of the county. Isn't there a lunatic there? , it seems to be that man from the Li family..."

The chat box seemed to be opened, and knowledgeable people in the audience spoke out one after another.

"Sir, your food and drinks."

Before Chu Mu could think more, the waiter interrupted Chu Mu's thoughts.

"Sir, your food and drinks are ready. If you need anything else, just call down."

Chu Mu nodded, glanced at the food and wine on the table, and then looked downstairs again.

The chatter box has been opened, and the excitement around what the storyteller is saying is already getting more and more lively.

Combined with what others have said, the authenticity of what the storyteller said can be basically confirmed. The only doubt is obviously whether it is man-made or the so-called theory of gods and ghosts.

After thinking for a moment, Chu Mu finally didn't think much about it. According to what everyone downstairs said, the matter happened at least several decades ago. The specifics have been wiped away by time.

What's more, the three of them became a tiger and spread rumors. It is estimated that not many people know the details.

Chu Mu shook his head. He didn't really believe in the theory of gods and ghosts.

Although bizarre things like time travel have occurred, if there really is a theory of resentful souls...

Then this Nanshan Iron Mine has probably become a ghost nest long ago.

After all, during the time he was at the inspection station alone, dozens of lives were lost in the mine!

As far as he knew, this was not a special accident in a special period. It was almost normal in that mine.

After all, the mines have been mined for too long, the facilities in many places are in disrepair, and the mining technology is too primitive.

Of course, the most important thing is the inaction of the mine managers.

It can be said that every piece of iron smelted in the iron smelting plant is stained with blood.

If there were really resentful souls, it wouldn't be right for so many lives lost in the mines if they didn't kill a few patrol inspectors every now and then to cheer them up.

But in the past month since he had been in the mine, Chu Mu had never heard of a patrol inspector losing his life.

Facts obviously speak louder than words.

But when the lunatic in the south of the city said it, Chu Mu remembered it in his heart. When he went to the county seat later, he would take the time to check it out without delaying anything.

Thinking in his mind, he changed the teacup in his hand into a wine glass. After a glass of wine went down his throat, the heat suddenly rose. The coldness that had been standing in the wind and snow for a whole morning seemed to dissipate a lot in an instant.

The spicy taste of Shiquan chili was strong, and the roast goose was fat but not greasy. The combination of the two made the taste even more delicious.

A sip of soju, a mouthful of roast goose dipped in Shiquan chili, and a mouthful of rice sent by the store.

Chu Mu just sipped and tasted lightly, listening to all directions, and he ate this leisure meal happily.

After drinking and eating, this body seemed to have never touched the wine. After a pot of soju, it was a little drunk.

He felt dizzy, but his whole body was warm, as if he was in a hot stove.

Chu Mu was not in a hurry to leave the restaurant. He leaned against the fence, listening to the noise in the store, and rested for a long time before calling the waiter to settle the bill.

A roast goose, a pot of liquor, thirty coppers, can barely be considered good value for money...

After paying the bill and leaving the restaurant, the wind and snow finally stopped completely. The heat was still flowing in my body with the alcohol, but there was no chill.

Although the wind and snow stopped, the passers-by on the street were all in a hurry in the cold. Some wealthy families even drove carriages or sedan chairs. Under the influence of alcohol, Chu Mu seemed a little leisurely.

Walking slowly, I don't know when, accompanied by the sound of the orioles, the faint fragrance of powder also entered my nose.

"Fengyue Tower..."

The orioles and swallows were so charming.

The cold winter did not affect her professionalism at all. The skirt was flying, the gauze was vague, and the charming figure walked into the wind and snow to greet Chu Mu.

Chu Mu smacked his lips. Wasn't he going home? Why did he get here?
