"Alright, you should all go inside now, it's getting dark soon."
Upon hearing this, everyone disregarded whether the woodshed was crowded or not, prioritizing safety above all else, and immediately prepared to go inside.
However, at that moment, Fang Xiu suddenly spoke up: "Wait a minute."
Everyone stopped in their tracks and looked at Fang Xiu.
"What's wrong, Brother Xiu?" Li Xiaoru asked, puzzled.
Under everyone's gaze, Fang Xiu took out a 1,000-yuan ghost money note from his pocket and said to Lu Ziming indifferently, "This is our accommodation fee."

Fang Xiu smiled slightly: "From beginning to end, you kept emphasizing that I should put away the ghost money, but you never said a word that I didn't have to spend money."
Lu Ziming was even more confused: "No, Brother Fang, the more you talk, the more confused I get. Isn't it the same thing to tell you to put the money away?"
