Chapter 253 Soul-Guiding Rice

Su Nuobai thought for a moment: "Is the owner of this land here?"

An honest man came out, somewhat afraid to look at Su Nuobai: "Master Su, this land was mine before."

"If you were asked to buy this house, could you afford it?" Su Nuobai looked at him and asked.

The man quickly waved his hands: "I, I can't afford it."

Su Nuobai looked at Wei Lixian and said, "Master Wei, do you think this is okay? I'm afraid anyone in the village wouldn't be able to come up with that much money if they were to buy this house."

"The Wu family embezzled a lot of money. Even if we raided their house, it would still be far from enough to compensate the villagers."

"Why don't I buy this house and their fertile land and turn it into a private school, so that children from the surrounding villages can learn to read and write for free."

"The Wu family's grain fields will be used as your salary, what do you think?"

Before Wei Lixian could say anything, the villagers became excited. They had never thought that the money would be returned one day.

No matter how much, it's a good thing for them.

What made them even more excited was that there was a private school in the village, and it was free.

"Since Master Su is willing to do this good deed, I will naturally agree. As for the matter of the Master, I will take care of it." Wei Lixian agreed readily.

The rest of the matters were left to Feng Zhi. She didn't have to worry about how much the house cost or what to buy.

After he finished his work, he took a few people and went straight back to Shengjing City.

Xiao Jiang looked at her and said, "I didn't make any money today and I even lost money."

Su Nuobai raised her hand and knocked on his little head: "You are obsessed with money now. Why are you always thinking about how to make money?"

"If I were still alive, I would definitely become a famous businessman in Shengjing City." Xiao Jiang said proudly.

"Bullshit." Mo Bao retorted without any politeness.

"I say, you cat are not cute at all." Xiao Jiang said as he rolled up his sleeves and prepared to fight.

Su Nuobai felt a headache and pulled Feng Zhi forward.

Feng Zhi looked at the place she was going to: "She is still planning to set up a stall."

"It's okay to go home now. It's better to set up a stall and make money honestly." Su Nuobai sat down on the stall after saying that.

Brother Zhou ran towards them carrying an empty basket. "Master Su, Master Su. I'm really sold out. I'll treat you to peanuts and sunflower seeds tomorrow."

"I have to go back and prepare today, otherwise I won't have anything to sell tomorrow." He said and waved goodbye to the few people.

Su Nuobai took out a small stool, put it on the ground and sat down.

A peddler saw her and ran over, put down his things and sat down opposite her: "Master Su, I have been waiting for you for several days."

Su Nuobai saw a faint yin energy coming from him, but it didn't seem malicious. "Did something happen to you?"

Chen Shan nodded quickly: "This story starts from the New Year. Since the New Year is coming, I want to sell more things, so I have to go to places farther than usual."

"I came home much later than usual. On the 29th, I was traveling at night and found a bowl of cold rice with three incense sticks on it."

"When I picked it up, I remembered that this was food for the dead. I quickly put it down and hurried home."

"But from that night on, every night someone would come to my house and knock on the door to beg for food. I would open the door and see no one, only a bowl of cold rice on the threshold."

"No matter how I tried to throw it away, I couldn't get rid of the cold rice. I was just too tired at the time, so I picked it up and looked at it half-heartedly, but didn't do anything with it."

"You said he would just follow me around and not leave? How come he came back the next day after he was lost?"

Su Nuobai got the general idea. He learned that this man came across someone else's soul-calling rice on his way home, and ended up being targeted by a ghost.

"Let me ask you, when you put it back, did you check the direction?"

Shen Shan was a little confused, but he still thought about it seriously: "I was scared at the time, and I really didn't pay attention to where I was, so I dropped it and ran away."

Su Nuobai pointed her finger at his brow and looked at her memory of that night.

"Master Su, have you figured out anything?" Shen Shan was feeling very nervous.

"The direction you placed it was facing a mass grave, where there are many wandering ghosts. You aimed it at them. If that's not to treat them to a meal, what is it?"

Su Nuobai was also speechless about him. What a coincidence, it was right across from a mass grave. It would be strange if people didn't come to your house to beg for food every day.

"Ah!" Shen Shan's face turned pale: "Master Su, then, what should we do now?"

"Go buy some good wine and food, and some incense and candles, take them to the mass grave and burn them there. Explain the whole story clearly, and they'll naturally stop pestering you."

Su Nuobai told him the method.

"Su, Master Su, can you come with me? I, I'm a little scared." Chen Shan was really scared!

"That's fine, just prepare the things and come and call me." Su Nuobai didn't quite believe that the wandering ghosts in the mass grave would be so easy to talk to.

When Shen Shan heard that she agreed, he quickly put the things next to them and ran away. He was not afraid of being stolen and went to buy things in a hurry.

"This guy is so careless. He's not afraid that we will steal his things." Xiao Jiang looked at the many things on his shelf.

"Do you need it?" Su Nuobai looked at him with a smile.

Xiao Jiang pouted: "No need."

"Then you should follow him." Su Nuobai looked at him and Feng Zhi with a smile.

"Why me again?" Xiao Jiang was depressed.

"It would be bad if Mobao couldn't help yelling at a kid when he went there. It's just right for you to go." Su Nuobai continued to fool him.

Feng Zhi smiled and shook his head. He also wanted to go and broaden his horizons, so he didn't refuse.

Chen Shan bought the things and left with Feng Zhi and Xiao Jiang.

When he left, he took out nine coins and said, "Master Su, I've been looking for a bun seller for a long time but couldn't find one. Can I give you nine coins?"

Su Nuobai nodded: "Okay."

Feng Zhi took the money and accompanied him on the trip.

The mass grave looked eerie, with dead trees everywhere and many crows resting on them, staring at the people eagerly.

Chen Shan's hands and feet were trembling, and he didn't dare to go over.

Feng Zhi saw that this place was almost a mass grave, so he asked him to light incense and place various offerings. While burning paper, he explained the cause and process of the incident.

"You just want to burn some paper and use some sacrifices and think it's over? That's a nice thought." A male ghost with a ferocious face flew out from the mass grave.

"These things of yours are not enough to fill my teeth. If you are sensible, prepare such sacrifices for us every day. Otherwise, we will go to your house every day to make a mess."

Feng Zhi looked at the male ghost with a cold look in his eyes: "Then I'll see if you have the life to live like this."

After saying that, he swung the long sword in his hand, which was wrapped in a faint spiritual energy, and slashed towards him.
