The Ghost King takes a concubine? Holy shit, he's been dead for thousands of years and still thinking about taking a concubine, and I'm a good man living in modern times and still a single dog, how can I feel?
But then the question arises. Su Xiaoniu said that the necessary condition for this phenomenon to occur is a living person who is targeted by the Ghost King... Who is this living person?
"Could it be Xuanxuan?" I suddenly became excited, and I breathed a sigh of relief at the thought of finding Xuanxuan quickly. But why could I hear so many girls bathing, while the brothel owner only heard one or two?
I've been unable to figure this out. Even Su Xiaoniu only gave a partial explanation. Perhaps it's because my senses are more acute than those of ordinary people. But that's not the root cause. Suddenly, I remembered the Pisces jade pendant Zhang Haitao had given me, and I quickly pulled it out of my pocket.
I kept this jade pendant and Xuanxuan's two supernatural photos close to my body. At this moment, I took out the jade pendant, and with the faint moonlight shining through from outside the tent, I was shocked to find that the two intertwined jade fish on the jade pendant were actually swimming up and down.
"This is..." I rubbed my eyes and looked again, and still saw the jade fish swimming. It was incredible!
The madam also saw this miraculous scene and said in surprise: "How can this fish move?"
"I don't know either." I drooped my ears, completely unaware of what was going on.
"Let me see." The brothel owner reached out and took it. She looked left and right, and after a while, she was stunned. Her eyes were wide open, and she looked very surprised. She said, "It's really lively outside. Just like you said, there are many girls taking a bath..."
She hadn't said that before, only after she took the Pisces jade pendant. At the same time, I couldn't hear the ghost slaves' bathing sounds clearly anymore. The sounds became very vague, and once the wind blew, they were completely drowned out.
At most, you might occasionally see a white shadow passing by outside the tent...
This made me even more certain that this Pisces jade pendant was indeed mysterious, and even had a certain connection with what Su Xiaoniu said about "the Ghost King taking a concubine."
At this time, the madam threw the Pisces jade pendant to me and said, "Put it aside for now. I'll discuss it with Brother Tao and the others tomorrow. Don't think too much and go to sleep."
I nodded, put the jade pendant aside, closed my eyes, and tried to fall asleep. But the white shadows and the sound of the girl taking a shower made me lose all desire to sleep.
I tossed and turned until about five in the morning. I didn't sleep a wink that night, and it wasn't until after five, when the sky was just beginning to light, that I felt sleepy and fell asleep.
When I woke up again, it was already past nine in the morning. I was the only one left in the tent. I was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly got up and ran outside. I just called out "Uncle Zhang" when Lao Sha came up behind me and said with a smile, "Xiao Fei, are you awake?"
I breathed a sigh of relief and nodded, "Where are Uncle Zhang and the brothel owner?"
As Lao Sha packed up the tent, he said, "We all know what happened between you and the madam last night. Brother Tao believes that this jade pendant is related to Xuanxuan's disappearance. And it just so happened that the jade pendant reacted last night. And according to the madam, many things that look like female ghosts appeared at the same time bathing by the river last night. We have summarized these doubts and decided to go to the nearby Xiaohe Cemetery to investigate. Now the two of them are holding the Pisces jade pendant and going there to inquire about the situation. Brother Tao asked me to wait here for you to wake up, and then follow them."
I nodded in realization and said awkwardly, "Sorry, Lao Sha, I overslept."
"You encountered a supernatural event that happens only once in a century last night. It's normal that you couldn't sleep all night. We deliberately let you sleep a little longer." Lao Sha turned around and smiled at me. The tent was almost packed up.
I helped Lao Sha pack up his things and carried them into the car. Lao Sha then drove the brothel owner's sports car and took me to the Xiaohe Cemetery.
Lao Sha said that Zhang Haitao and the madam had set out at around 6:00 in the morning, and although they were walking, they should have reached the Xiaohe Cemetery by now. We drove, and the Xiaohe Cemetery wasn't far from the Kongque River, so we arrived in a moment.
