Build the Traveler Alliance from scratch

Chapter 291 An old friend during his lifetime?

"You...what kind of weapon is this?!"

A slightly startled voice suddenly came from behind, causing the smile on Ye Chen's face to freeze instantly.

He quickly turned around, pulled out the revolver from his waist, and carefully aimed at the girl in red who appeared behind him.

"and who are you?"

"What are you talking about?" the girl in red said angrily, "You just destroyed the paper cat I possessed, and you ask me who I am?"

Ye Chen was slightly startled, then exclaimed: "It's you, you're not a monster, you're a female ghost?!"

The girl in red curled her lips, ignored the wary Ye Chen, walked to the table behind him, and picked up the red paper with a distressed look on her face.

"Oh, it's really completely broken. Do you know how difficult it is for me to cut out a paper man - Ye Chen, you have to compensate me!"

"..." Ye Chen frowned, "Do you know my name?"

"Of course, I came here specifically to find you. I wanted to lure you outside Ren's house first, and then tell you the reason for my visit, but who would have thought that you are so hateful, not only disguising garlic as candy" , and you use it to bully a poor, weak and helpless kitten, it really pisses me off!"

Saying that, the girl in red couldn't help but glare at Ye Chen. The little girl's posture between her eyebrows made Ye Chen's guard slightly lower.

He could feel that the female ghost in front of him didn't seem to have any ill intentions toward him.

But no matter what, ghosts are ghosts, and people and ghosts have different paths. Naturally, Ye Chen did not dare to put down the revolver in his hand.

He frowned, glanced at Ren Tingting who was sleeping on the bed, and said in a deep voice: "So what are you here for?"

The girl in red put away the tattered paper cat, looked at Ye Chen and said with a smile: "Please go to the wild temple in the northwest outside the village. My sister wants to see you."

"Your sister?" Ye Chen frowned and asked in surprise, "Is she also a female ghost?"

The girl in red smiled and nodded: "Of course."

Ye Chen had a strange look on his face when he heard this, and couldn't help but sigh, and said: "People and ghosts have different paths. Although I am handsome, I am still alive after all. Even if your sister falls in love with me, I can't be with her." , not to mention, I am still a married man..."

Before he could finish speaking, the girl in red laughed angrily at him.

"You guys are so narcissistic, why should my sister like you? Bah, you are really ungrateful. I want you to know that although my sister is a ghost, she is extremely talented and has the appearance of a ghost. Even in the future, If you want to marry, then you are marrying a powerful person from the underworld. You are just a mortal scholar, what qualifications do you have to be taken seriously by my sister?"

Ye Chen smiled and said, "In that case, why does your sister want to see me?"

The girl in red hummed softly: "Sister said that you were his old friend during his lifetime, but her memory was incomplete after her death, and she couldn't remember her past or your identity, so she wanted to talk to you alone."

...An old friend during his lifetime?

Ye Chen was slightly startled and said thoughtfully, "Does the girl have any evidence?"

The girl in red said proudly: "Yes, my sister taught me a poem and said that as long as I read this poem to you, you will go to see her!"

Ye Chen raised his eyebrows slightly and said with interest: "Oh? Read it and listen."

The girl in red coughed lightly and said solemnly: "Listen carefully - the scenery of the North is covered with ice for thousands of miles, and snow is drifting for thousands of miles. Looking inside and outside the Great Wall, there is nothing but vastness. The rivers up and down suddenly lose their torrents, and the mountain dance... the mountain dance... …What’s Shanwu doing?”

The girl in red is troubled and meditative, looking very much like a scumbag from later generations who cannot memorize poetry.

Ye Chen couldn't bear to see it, and couldn't help but add: "Silver snakes dance in the mountains, wax elephants ride in the mountains, I want to compete with God!"

"Yep!"

The girl in red's eyes lit up and she nodded repeatedly: "That's it. It seems that you are indeed my sister's old friend. You even know this poem that my sister taught me!"

...An old friend during his lifetime?

He must be a fellow from his previous life!

Ye Chen couldn't help but complain in his heart.

Although the song "Qinyuanchun·Snow" was written by a teacher in 1936, it was first published in 1945.

The timeline of this world is extremely early, not to mention 1945, not even 1936. People who know this poem are either the teacher himself who has already drafted it in his mind, or someone who has traveled through time from later generations. By.

The sister of the girl in red in front of her should obviously be the latter.

Thinking of this, Ye Chen couldn't help but confirm again: "Is your sister really a female ghost?"

The girl in red said angrily: "Of course, will I still lie to you?"

There are actually time travelers who have turned into ghosts?

This kind of luck is simply worse than his!

Ye Chen pondered for a moment and said softly: "Reply your sister for me and tell her that I will go see her tomorrow."

The girl in red frowned slightly and asked doubtfully: "Why does it have to be tomorrow, not now?"

Ye Chen said softly: "Because I have to take Brother Li with me. Brother Li is also your sister's old friend."

The girl in red thought for a while and nodded: "Okay, in that case, I'll leave first. People and ghosts have different paths. Without the possessed paper man, the ghost energy in me is not good for you - oh yes Come on, don’t forget to bring me forty-nine pieces of red paper tomorrow. If you ruined my paper figurine, you’ll have to compensate me for another one!”

"Okay, okay, I remember!"

Ye Chen smiled and nodded.

Knowing that the female ghost in red in front of him was the sister of the time traveler, Ye Chen's mentality immediately changed.

He didn't care about the female ghost's previous offenses, and just regarded it as a prank by his friend's sister.

The girl in red didn't seem to expect that Ye Chen would suddenly become so talkative, so she glanced at him in surprise, then thought for a moment and waved her sleeves.

In an instant, an invisible wave spread throughout Ren's house.

Ye Chen was thoughtful, thinking that this should be the other party who had broken the enchantment spell.

When the girl in red turned into smoke and disappeared from sight, Ye Chen inserted the revolver back into his waist, sat on the edge of the bed, and gently shook Ren Tingting's shoulder.

"……What's wrong?"

Seeing Ren Tingting opening her eyes in confusion, Ye Chen breathed a sigh of relief.

The next morning.

Li Yun opened the door and walked into the yard with some depression.

He originally thought that Mr. Ren would turn into a corpse soon, but who would have thought that nothing happened last night.

What exactly is going on?

In the yard, Uncle Jiu, who was cleaning with a broom, caught a glimpse of Li Yun's expression and couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.

"Why, are you disappointed?"

"It's a bit." Li Yun nodded, then looked at Uncle Jiu and said doubtfully, "Uncle Jiu, aren't you going to the mountains today to find a good Feng Shui treasure land for Mr. Ren? Why haven't you left yet?"

After hearing Li Yun's words, Uncle Jiu became furious.

He said angrily: "It's not because Wencai is such a lazy donkey. He won't wake up if he doesn't bark, and he won't turn around if he doesn't!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Wencai ran out carrying ruler sticks of different lengths: "Master, I'm ready!"

Uncle Jiu looked him up and down and snorted: "Where's the compass?"

Wencai looked embarrassed and quickly turned around and ran back to the house to get the compass.

Looking at the back of the literary talent, Uncle Jiu couldn't help but shake his head and sighed: "It's so careless and careless!"

Ever since he had the idea of ​​​​accepting a disciple, Uncle Jiu has become more and more dissatisfied with his two apprentices. He always thought that if it were Li Yun or Ye Chen, he would definitely not make the same stupid mistakes as the talented Qiu Sheng.

It’s better to accept a real successor as soon as possible!

If he continues like this, his life will be ruined sooner or later by these two bastards.

Uncle Jiu sighed in his heart, and his desire to recruit a disciple became even stronger.

Li Yun looked funny next to him. This is the advantage of living in Yizhuang. You can see this comedy master and apprentice every day.

Soon, Wencai ran to Uncle Jiu holding a compass and carrying ruler sticks of different lengths.

"Master, I'm really ready this time!"

Uncle Jiu looked at it again and nodded slightly: "Then let's go!"

After saying that, Uncle Jiu put the broom on the wall, put his hands behind his back, turned and walked towards the gate of Yizhuang.

Wencai smiled and said hello to Li Yun, then quickly followed and asked in a low voice: "Master, what kind of land are we looking for this time?"

Uncle Jiu glanced at him and said calmly: "Of course the best one is Lian Zhen's Fazu, who resigned from the downstairs hall, opened tents up and down, sometimes big and sometimes small, walking through fields and gorges, with the waist of a wasp and the knees of a crane, moving in the center. The veins are coming out, there are special acupoint stars, the pointed diagram is square, surrounded by dragons and tigers, and protected by mountains and rivers - "

Wencai looked embarrassed and whispered: "I don't understand."

Uncle Jiu snorted: "I only said this after digesting it!"

Wencai curled his lips and said, "That means there is something wrong with my gastrointestinal tract."

"It's not the stomach, it's the head!" Uncle Jiu shook his head and sighed, "Your master and I have been wise and powerful all my life, how come..."

Wen Cai immediately smiled and continued: "If I am not a slow disciple, how can I appear to be a wise master?"

Uncle Jiu twitched his lips when he heard this, feeling angry and funny in his heart.

"You bastard, are you going to play meat with a knife on a knife with your master?"

Uncle Jiu raised his hand, intending to strike, but Wen Cai quickly dodged.

Just by hiding, he accidentally bumped into Ye Chen who was walking outside the door.

The compass in his hand flew out and was easily caught by Ye Chen's free left hand.

Seeing this hand, Uncle Jiu showed admiration and asked with a smile: "It's Ye Chen, why did you come to Yizhuang so early? Did Master Ren ask you to come?"

"Be more careful next time."

Ye Chen handed the compass in his hand to Wencai, then turned to look at Uncle Jiu and said with a smile, "No, I'm here to see Brother Li."

Uncle Jiu raised his eyebrows: "Oh?"

Ye Chen looked at the compass in Wencai's hand and the ruler stick on his back, and asked curiously: "Are you two going to the mountains to find Feng Shui treasures?"

Wencai quickly said: "Yes, are you interested? Do you want to come together?"

What he fears most is to go up the mountain with Uncle Jiu to find a place with good Feng Shui.

Because every time he does this, he has to carry everything for his master, and he often carries it for six or seven hours. Wen Cai's physique is not as good as Qiu Sheng's, so running down for six or seven hours is simply a waste for him. The most brutal torture in the world.

It was the best thing for him to have someone to share his luggage with.

But it's a pity...

"No!"

Although Ye Chen was very interested, he still refused with a smile: "I have something urgent to do with Brother Li."

"All right."

Wen Cai was a little disappointed, but Uncle Jiu glanced at the bag of red paper held in Ye Chen's right hand and couldn't help but feel suspicious.

The white and yellow paper connects to the yang, and the red paper connects to the yin. Ye Chen is a living person, and he is not celebrating the holidays. Why did he buy so much red paper?
