"You have no idea, that Miss He's fighting power is amazing! She scratched Qiu Qing's face all over, and He Chusheng even got slapped twice!" Xiao Hei was full of excitement. "Nobody's watching the show anymore, everyone's watching them. I think if they fight for a while longer, maybe some people will cheer for them."

Fang Zhiyi asked with a smile, "And then?"

"And then? The enemy's men came. How could they not be worried when their own daughter was beaten up? They immediately arrested both men surnamed He and took them back. But He Chu was really lucky; he was bailed out by Qiu Qing right away. Only He Yuling suffered, but..."

It looked around and said, "I overheard He Chusheng talking to Qiu Qing about He Yuling, how she was pestering him so much that Qiu Qing was stomping her feet. So he came to the provincial capital to avoid suspicion... The most important thing is that he proposed to marry Qiu Qing, but he wanted her to cooperate with him in putting on a show."

Fang Zhiyi raised an eyebrow: "This has abruptly pulled us back to the main storyline."

Xiao Hei nodded: "That's right~ I reckon those two troublemakers will be back soon."

"What's meant to happen can't be avoided... This paranoid and morbid guy is most likely to become a vengeful ghost, a terrible omen."

Where are you going?

"I've taken their money, and I'm going to the river to exorcise the evil spirits."

"You can?"

"Yes, but not really. However, I have a way."

As night fell, the riverbank was very quiet, without even the chirping of insects, except for the occasional sound of flowing water.

Fang Zhiyi walked along the riverbank with her head down, stopping every few steps: "This money is really hard to earn, it's so cold."

He had walked around twice but hadn't seen anything strange. If he hadn't asked the hanging ghost not far away beforehand, he would have thought that the family that hired him was hallucinating.

Fortunately, he noticed something was wrong on the third lap. First, he heard a fish jumping out of the water. Fang Zhiyi stopped and looked at the water. By the moonlight, he saw what appeared to be a large black fish floating belly-up towards the shore, very close to him. You have to understand that in those days, a pound of meat was very precious, and a fish was a delicacy that ordinary families could only afford to eat once every one or two months.

Fang Zhiyi stared blankly at the fish, sighed after a moment, and continued walking with her head down.

Sure enough, the fish disappeared very quickly.

Not far from him, another figure appeared. That person also walked with his head down, moving faster and slower depending on Fang Zhiyi's pace. Moreover, he seemed to know the area well, walking close to the riverbank without fear of falling in.

"There are fish," the man suddenly said, pointing to the water.

Fang Zhiyi followed his hand and looked over. Sure enough, a fish was floating on the surface of the water, and it was quite big.

"Let's catch some fish," the man continued.

Fang Zhiyi rolled her eyes: "These water ghosts have used the same tricks to death. Don't they know how to come up with something new? Trying to catch birdfish and fish in the middle of the night."

Seeing that he was about to continue walking, the water ghost seemed a little anxious. Without thinking, it left the water's edge and moved closer to Fang Zhiyi.

He put his wet hand on Fang Zhiyi's shoulder: "Let's go into the water."

Fang Zhiyi turned around and smiled.

The kind that can scare ghosts to death.

The water ghost was stunned, and then saw the person in front of it, who was tightly wrapped in a coat, suddenly pull the coat open. In an instant, the water ghost felt a golden light pierce its face! The inside of this person's clothes was filled with talismans and spirit tablets, and the inside of the coat was completely covered!

"Ah!!" The water ghost screamed in agony, instinctively trying to return to the water.

"You've already come all this way, why are you leaving?"

A talisman was thrown directly at his face. Yes, a talisman.
