The crooked way can also lead to heaven

"Hey, Uncle Lin, this Ye Ran is like a pervert. Do you have to make him your bodyguard?"

"Ahem, Xiaoxiao, although Master Ye usually behaves a little exaggerated, his strength is unquestionable."

"I know that the person you are looking for will definitely not be weak, but he is too weird. It is impossible to communicate at all..."

"That's true, but Master Ye is famous for keeping his word in the industry. As long as he receives the money, he will definitely do things properly."

"How about this, Uncle Lin, I will teach you how to communicate with him. Remember, talk about money when something happens."

"This...Okay, I'll try."

Luo Xiaoxiao hung up the phone and looked in the direction of Ye Ran, with a complicated look.

Is this kind of person who always takes a knife really that easy to talk to?

Although it's unpleasant, if you encounter danger on the road and need his help, it's always not good to have a bad relationship.

"Master Ye..., what's the meaning of the oil-paper fan on your back? It looks so beautiful. Can you show it to me?"

Luo Xiaoxiao came to Ye Ran and found a random topic to start with, hoping to ease the relationship.

Ye Ran turned her head and glanced at her, then turned her head away and said lightly: "No, besides...just treat me as a transparent person, there is no need to deliberately communicate."

The smile on Luo Xiaoxiao's face froze instantly, and she stood there awkwardly.

He is the daughter of Luo's Group in Tianhai City. Wherever he goes, he is worshipped as an ancestor. This is the first time that he has been given a cold shoulder outside. Just thinking about it makes me angry!

Then he stomped his feet, snorted lightly, and left the place, went to the cabin and beat the pillow frantically.

...

After sailing on the sea for a day and a half, when everyone opened their eyes again, the ship had docked at the pier.

Everyone discussed chartering a car to go to the destination directly, and they could observe the scenery along the way without delaying the trip.

Even if the other few were not second-generation rich, their families were definitely well-off. As soon as they got off the boat, they started spending money. Their reckless appearance attracted many strange looks.

Ye Ran followed behind and shook his head slightly. After all, they were just young men who had not experienced the beatings of society.

Although the public security is not as good as before, unpleasant things can still happen in some remote areas.

"Master Ye, do you want to eat?"

Luo Xiaoxiao handed over a candied haws, thinking that they were originally in the same industry, and it would not be good to be xenophobic.

Ye Ran didn't even look at her, and passed by her.

Luo Xiaoxiao put her hands on her waist and wanted to get angry, but she still forced herself to hold it back.

The town under her feet was not big, just the size of a street, and you could see the end at a glance.

After discussing with the driver, they set off for the village.

Seeing the pastoral scenery outside the window along the way, these rich kids were very excited. I think they are used to living in the city.

Ye Ran sat by the window with his head propped up in a daze, and the winding mountain road was everywhere.

The team arrived at noon, and it was already evening when they approached the village.

Everyone got off the car by the road because the place they were going to was not accessible by car, so they had to walk.

"Is this the rural scenery? I must take more photos to talk to those buddies when I go back!"

Zhou Hao excitedly took out his mobile phone and started taking pictures, and the others also took videos and photos.

"Okay, okay, let's go in early and find a place to stay. It's getting dark." Luo Xiaoxiao said.

Zhou Hao was very attentive, helping to carry the luggage and taking the initiative to clear the way.

Ye Ran walked at the end of the team, and his steps paused slightly when he passed a bush.

Looking over, there was a tombstone hidden in it. If you don't look carefully, you really can't find it.

It was nothing at first, but there were too many tombstones along the way. This place is obviously a cemetery.

"Placing the burial area on the road into the village, what a weird custom?" Ye Ran thought.

After moving forward for a while, a house finally appeared in sight, with smoke curling up.

It's just that the spacing is relatively sparse, basically separated by a distance of more than ten steps.

There are quite a few people at the entrance of the village. The one in front is an old man with a cane, wearing an old-fashioned Zhongshan suit.

"You should be archaeological experts. Welcome, welcome. I am the village chief of this Huangshan Village. You can just call me Lao Zhaotou."

Lao Zhaotou said with a smile, showing a kind look.

"Old man, please take us to the place where we live first. I'm hungry after walking here." Zhou Hao said first.

Lao Zhaotou nodded: "Okay, the accommodation has been arranged. Come with me."

After walking for about a few minutes, they passed through the dense bamboo forest area, and a small courtyard appeared in front of them. Pushing the door and entering, it can only be described as dilapidated and desolate.

It's unknown how long no one has lived in this place. The sundries piled up on both sides should have been sorted out recently.

Ye Ran doesn't care. People in the rivers and lakes sleep wherever they go. It's good to have a place that can shelter from the wind and rain. Most of the time, people like them use the ground as a bed and the sky as a quilt.

But...

Ye Ran looked around, then pushed open the main door and took a few more glances, and found that there were still cut white silk on the beams, and a few pieces of paper money in the corners of the ground.

The ground was dusty, but there were a few places that looked very clean, in long strips and not far apart.

There was an incense burner on the long table by the wall, and the incense sticks inside had not yet burned out.

"This place should be an abandoned charity cemetery. Judging from the traces, the coffins inside were cleared out not long ago."

"Strange, in rural areas, the dead are usually buried directly, so why would a special charity cemetery be opened to put the bodies in it?"

Ye Ran frowned slightly, but he couldn't see more clues just from the surface.

"Uncle Zhao, why are all the other rooms locked except the one in the middle?"

"Do you want us to sleep on the floor and squeeze into this room in the middle?"

Zhou Hao also wandered around and looked back with a puzzled look on his face.

The others were still chatting, and when they heard this, they looked over and found that the other rooms were not only locked, but also covered with yellow talismans.

"Uncle Zhao, what's going on?" After coming to his senses, Luo Xiaoxiao also asked.

When this question was mentioned, Old Zhao's face was full of pain and he sighed softly.

"You all don't know that there has always been a custom in our village that outsiders are not allowed to enter."

"To be honest, this place used to be a charity cemetery, but it was abandoned for some reason. This is the only place in the whole village that can provide you with accommodation. Please don't blame me."

"What?!"

"Charity cemetery!"

Zhou Hao couldn't help but raise his voice and accused him with some displeasure: "Uncle Zhao, we have given you a lot of money, why did you take us to a place where dead people can live?"

Luo Xiaoxiao pursed her red lips lightly, and there was some grudge in her heart: "Yes, Uncle Zhao, can't we really change places?"

Old Zhao shook his head with an embarrassed look on his face: "Alas, there is really no place in the village, I'll say this, you can only live here."

After that, he didn't entangle any more, turned around and left with his crutches, not giving everyone a chance to refute.

Looking at his leaving back, Ye Ran's eyes burned slightly, the old man didn't tell the truth

The charity cemetery looked like it had been abandoned for a long time, but I always felt something was wrong. The anomalies along the way from entering the village to now all told that this village was unusual.

"Forget it, let's stay here tonight. We are all students of the archaeology department, and dealing with corpses is a common thing."

"If we are scared just because of this, then we should not do this industry."

Luo Xiaoxiao sighed slightly. Originally, this trip was to complete the graduation conclusion. Even if we don't deal with corpses now, we will still go tomorrow.

Hearing what the leader said, the others couldn't complain anymore. After saying a few more words, Xiaosheng began to look for his room.

"What era is it? Still doing these feudal superstitions. I will live in this room today and see what will happen!"

Zhou Hao tore the yellow talisman in front of him in one go and pushed the door and walked in.

Luo Xiaoxiao turned to look at Ye Ran, who was silent, and walked into the central hall after a brief thought.

Others may not believe this, but she must believe it.

Although I majored in archaeology and everything is scientific, there are some things that science cannot explain and can only be attributed to the direction of metaphysics.

Luo Xiaoxiao has encountered this kind of thing more than once, which is why he specially hired a guard who knows Taoism.

Ye Ran took down the ink-black oil-paper umbrella and gently placed his fingers on it. The umbrella body actually jumped slightly.

"This place... is full of ghosts."
