At the dining table, Wang Xiansen and Mrs. Zhou toasted Zhou Ze repeatedly, but Zhou Ze refused to drink.
Zhou Ze's face was calm as he looked at the sumptuous food on the table. In fact, Zhou Ze could not eat at all!
Not only Zhou Ze, but Xia Weilan also looked like she was used to the delicious food.
All of this was because they could not eat the food at the moment, but Zhou Ze did not panic at all. He could feel that his soul was modifying his zombie body. Zhou Ze believed that he would be able to eat and drink like a normal person in the future. For now, it was not a big deal to endure it.
Seeing that Zhou Ze and Xia Weilan were not eating, Mrs. Zhou asked cautiously,""Mr. Zhou, is the food not to your taste? Do you want to change tables?"
" No need, no need. There's no rush," Zhou Ze waved his hand. He turned to Mrs. Zhou's cousin and said," You're the one who needs my help this time, aren't you?"”
" Yes," Mrs. Zhou quickly said." This is my cousin. She was the one who told me about this."”
"Yes, tell me in detail what happened.”Zhou Ze said.
Zhou Ze had already shown her a little something. When she saw Zhou Ze's calm eyes and was influenced by his tone, Mrs. Zhou's cousin calmed down and began to tell Zhou Ze and Xia Weilan about the strange things that happened in their village,"
"Mr. Zhou, it's like this. A very strange thing has happened in our village recently. You might not know this, but the people in our village all have the same surname and clan. Our ancestors have lived here for generations, so when the old people in our village die, they will enter the ancestral hall.”
"The ancestral hall of our village is in the center of the village. There are memorial tablets of all the deceased elders in the village for future generations to pay homage to. In the past, the conditions didn't allow it. Now that the conditions allow it, we usually leave a black-and-white photo of the old man on the spirit tablet as a memento.”
"Originally, this was nothing. Who would have thought that a few days ago, when the village children were playing around, they ran into the ancestral hall and cried out that they were very afraid and that there were ghosts. The adults did not believe it at first, but since their children said so, they went to the ancestral hall to take a look. Usually, the ancestral hall was locked until the time of the sacrifice. God knew how those children got in.”
"Sigh, but those children are right. There's really something wrong with the ancestral hall!”
Zhou Ze narrowed his eyes and said,""Something is wrong?"
"Yes, yes, do you know about the flying guillotine?”Mrs. Zhou's cousin asked.
"Blood guillotine?" Zhou Ze's interest was piqued. He smiled and said," Go on."”
Mrs. Zhou's cousin swallowed her saliva and said with some lingering fear,"It's like this. When the adults entered the ancestral hall to take a look, they realized that there was an additional red dot on all the memorial tablets with photos.”
"This little red dot looks like blood. It also looks a little protruding, like blood that has dripped on it. All the memorial tablets with photos have this little red dot, and it's all on the old man's forehead in the photo! They were all exactly the same! Moreover, the ancestral hall was clearly pitch-black, but these little red dots were bright, and it was a little dazzling!”
"At that time, the adults were all frightened. Later, the elders in the village said that there was an evil spirit, but some young people didn't believe it and tried to wipe it off. However, no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't wipe it off. It was as if it was printed in the photo, but, but there were no red dots in the photo! Now, the photos of the deceased ancestors looked like they were smiling, and they were smiling very strangely!”
"In the end, something was wrong with the ancestral hall. It was clearly daytime, but it was eerie and scary inside. There was also a bone-chilling feeling. If one stayed inside for a short while, they would not be able to stand it and run out. After staying for a long time, they even felt like they were being pricked by needles, as if someone was poking them with needles.”
"In that kind of situation, not only would humans be afraid, even livestock would be afraid. In the beginning, there were still cats and dogs around the ancestral shrine, but now, cats and dogs didn't dare to approach. The sparrows and pigeons that were originally parked outside the ancestral shrine didn't dare to stay either. There was no one inside the ancestral shrine.”
"At first, it was fine. But, but now, three people have died because of this!”
" Three died?!" Zhou Ze frowned when he heard that. It was a completely different story when someone died. Had the ghost that killed people evolved into a malicious ghost?
"Yes, three people died. There were young and strong young men and strong men. They all died when they were keeping watch at the ancestral shrine. Three people died in a row. Who dares to go to the ancestral shrine?! Now, the villagers were in a state of panic. Many people planned to move away.”Mrs. Zhou's cousin said.
Zhou Ze had a rough idea. It was definitely a ghost, and it was definitely a malicious ghost. However, Zhou Ze was confident that he could kill it.
Zhou Ze nodded and said," I know what happened. If I'm not wrong, it's probably a malicious ghost."”
" A malicious ghost?!" Mr. Li and Mrs. Zhou exclaimed in unison.
Mrs. Zhou's cousin nodded repeatedly."Yes, yes, yes. The elders in the village also said that it was caused by malicious ghosts.”
"If I can get rid of this ghost, how much can you pay?”Zhou Ze asked.
When Mrs. Zhou's cousin heard this, she could not help but lower her head and ponder. After a short moment of silence, Mrs. Zhou's cousin said,"I'll make a call and discuss it with the elders in the village.”
"Sure." Zhou Ze nodded.
After a while, Mrs. Zhou's cousin came back. She looked at Zhou Ze, then at Mrs. Zhou, and said,""Mr. Zhou, I just talked to the elders in the village. The elders said that if you can really help us get rid of this ghost, we're willing to pay 100,000!”
"100,000!" Xia Weilan could not help but open her mouth when she heard the number.
Zhou Ze, on the other hand, was not very satisfied. Although it was a good thing to help others, he had to be rewarded for what he had done.
"A hundred thousand? I can't accept this number." Zhou Ze said.
"Then tell me, how much is suitable?" Mrs. Zhou's cousin asked anxiously.
" The older generation lives in the village now," Zhou Ze said." But aren't the young people working outside?" Your village isn't poor. Moreover, there must be quite a number of people who can take out 100,000 yuan, right? This ghost killed three people. You should know what's going on. I'll take the job for 500,000.”
