Yu Jie sat across from me, Zhao Xi sat next to me, and then I listened to Yu Jie tell me about some of the things he encountered during his trip with his girlfriend Qiao Xiaomu, as if telling a story. Of course, he definitely wouldn't tell me some of the private things that happened during the trip, and only mentioned a few key points.
Yu Jie said that they went to Kaiping, Guangdong for a trip, because before that, they saw group tour tickets on mobile APPs. They were very cheap, only 188 yuan per person, and they did not need to pay for food, clothing and accommodation afterwards. The regular trip was for a week, and the goal was - the uninhabited ghost village in Kaiping, Guangdong!
The so-called "forbidden area" is strictly off-limits. It's also a "blind spot" rife with dangers. This has piqued the curiosity of many young people. Qiao Xiaomu coaxed Yu Jie into buying a ticket to go with her, saying she wanted to see what the deserted ghost village was like and whether there were any ghosts.
However, Yu Jie, who had encountered ghosts before, refused to give up. He repeatedly asked to change places, but Qiao Xiaomu refused and insisted on exploring the deserted ghost village. Finally, unable to bear her, he had no choice but to go. Then something happened. The entire tour group disappeared inexplicably. Yu Jie had yang deficiency, so I gave him some amulets for self-defense. This allowed him to return to Jiangzhou with his girlfriend safely. However, when his girlfriend was in the deserted ghost village, she came into contact with something and became entangled by a corpse toad, which led to her current situation that was neither human nor ghost.
"In other words, the incident happened in the uninhabited ghost village in Kaiping, Guangdong, right?" I fell into deep thought.
Yu Jie nodded and said yes. "When the tour group disappeared, it seems that one of the tourists called 110 to report the incident, but because they didn't provide enough details, the signal was lost, so now even the police have nowhere to take action. But recently I heard that someone has re-reported the case. The police in Kaiping, Guangdong should have been dispatched. I think they will find the missing tourists soon... Why are you asking this?"
I spread my hands and said, "Nothing much. We just need to save your girlfriend. We have to go to that ghost village first and find a plant called rotten grass. If we use that grass smoke to fumigate her, the thing wrapped around her will come out."
When Yu Jie heard that we had to go to that ghost village again, his legs started shaking with fear and he almost knelt in front of me: "Brother, please forgive me, I don't want to go to that ghost village anymore!"
I asked him to sit down calmly and said, "I didn't ask you to go. Just take care of your girlfriend and wait for me to come back."
Yu Jie cried and said, "Xu Fei, you are really my good friend!"
I smiled and said, "Why are you being polite? We are brothers after all."
"Having you as my brother, I don't feel like my journey was in vain!" Yu Jie held my hand tightly and said, "You must come back safely! I'll be waiting for you, bro!"
I made an OK sign, and then I saw Zhao Xi holding her belly, looking at me reluctantly. My heart softened instantly, and I went up to her and said, "You are pregnant, stay home and rest, don't run around, understand?"
Zhao Xi nodded, her eyes red: "I will take good care of myself."
I smiled, walked out of the hall, and prepared to leave. I heard hurried footsteps behind me, and a gentle arm like jade held me tightly. I turned around, and Zhao Xi said seriously with a small face: "Xu Fei, this is for you."
She held a piece of blood-red jade in her hands, with a dragon pattern carved on it. I asked her what it was, and she said, "This is a jade that has been passed down from our Zhao family's ancestors. It is made from the essence and blood of the Candle Dragon. In fact, Huo Liang wanted to obtain this jade, but he thought that as long as he had my body, he could obtain our Zhao family's Candle Dragon blood through the art of harmony. In fact, that is wrong. The real Candle Dragon blood is on this jade. This jade contains the essence and blood of all the women in our Zhao family. I don't know what will happen to the man who possesses it. I only know that he will become very powerful. This is what my grandfather told me."
My hand trembled, and suddenly I felt that the jade in my hand was extremely heavy, as if a hundred thousand mountains were pressing down on me, making it difficult for me to breathe. I said in surprise, "How can I afford such a valuable thing..."
Zhao Xi shook his head and said, "No one would be more suitable than you. This is the only way I can help you. It's also a thank you for taking care of me these days. You must accept it."
