"Later, an expert said that the daughter of the Zhou family drowned in the well, and her body was swollen and stiff. She couldn't bend down, so she could only hide under the bed and no one could find her."
Lin Xing asked: "So, now everyone in Wangjia Town sleeps under the bed every day?"
Old Man Li: "That's not the case. With the ghost making so much trouble, who would dare to sleep on the bed?"
Lin Xing asked again: "If everyone sleeps under the bed, then no one will be killed?"
Old man Li sighed, "Oh, that's not the case. Someone just disappeared a few days ago. Maybe she got up at night and met the little girl from the Zhou family, and was killed by this ghost."
Lin Xing then asked: "Where is this Zhou family?"
Next, Lin Xing had another conversation with Old Man Li, asking for more clues about ghosts.
He said to Bai Yiyi in the backpack, "Master Bai, what do you think? You have been traveling around the world for so many years. Have you ever encountered such evil spirits?"

Seeing Lin Xing suddenly talking to himself, Old Man Li's heart skipped a beat and he couldn't help but look around twice.
Bai Yiyi looked at the outside environment through the gap of the backpack, and her heart couldn't help but be a little nervous: "Lin Xing, aren't you afraid?"
Hearing the thumping footsteps approaching, Niu Er began to tremble with fear. The footsteps stopped in front of Niu Er's bed.
"Don't worry, Master Bai. No matter what happens, I will be the first to die. If I die a few more times, the problem will be solved."
Then he said to the driver, "Master, you go to sleep first. I want to go out for a walk."
"Master, I have found the best craftsman in the area for you. When the time comes, I will carve the inscription written by the late emperor for the chaste women in the world on the main plaque for you..."
Bai Yiyi hesitated and said, "I don't quite understand this, but just by listening to these words, we can't say that it must be caused by evil spirits, right? If you want to make someone disappear without anyone noticing, many experts can do it."
Recalling the approximate location that Old Man Li mentioned, Lin Xing strode over with big strides.
"Generally speaking, you can always encounter something when you go to the place where the evil spirit died."
…
He woke up instantly, with only one thought in his mind: "Could it be that the drowned Miss Zhou has come looking for me?"
Niu Er now felt much safer. Although the wooden floor beneath him was very hard, he gradually fell asleep.
"Afraid?" Lin Xing said, "Come to think of it, I haven't felt this kind of fear for a long time. Maybe it's because I'm so numb."
On the other side, Lin Xing was walking on a dark street, wondering where he could meet the legendary ghost transformed by the daughter of the Zhou family, so that the other party could kill him a few times, which would help him to improve his skills.
Listening to Bai Yiyi's words, Lin Xing nodded secretly, but a trace of doubt surged in his heart: "Jing Shiyu seems to know a lot about evil spirits and Taoism, but Master Bai, as a senior leader of the nine major sects, doesn't seem to know much about it."
After a while, when Lin Xing finally found the well in the backyard of the Li family, he discovered an old man squatting in front of the well and burning yellow paper.
A strong stench of decay came over and kept drilling into Niu Er's nasal cavity.
"Are you still going out for a walk so late?" After Old Man Li poured the wine and handed it to the other party, he was about to persuade the other party when he found that Lin Xing was walking very fast and in the blink of an eye he was completely integrated into the darkness outside the store.
As he spoke, he had already laid down on the bed: "Why should we take the ignorant words of a bunch of fools to heart? Go to bed early, and when reinforcements arrive tomorrow, we will take action."
The sound of "dong dong dong" kept coming into his ears. Just when he was feeling strange, he heard a creaking sound and the door was opened.
On the other side, a bandit in the guest room said, "Captain, should we...sleep under the bed?"
Thinking of the other party's previous behavior, he suddenly felt a chill in his heart: "Is this young master possessed by evil spirits?"
"Your parents are ready to pay for a chastity arch for you. The whole town will know that you are a good girl."
Only when Lin Xing got closer did he hear the other person mumbling something.
It was pitch black everywhere, with the windows creaking as the wind blew through them, like a ghost town.
…
But the next moment, the yellow paper had been completely burned to ashes, leaving Lin Xing no time to see clearly what was written on it.
Walking along the way, Lin Xing found that there seemed to be no one left in the Li family's house.
With a thud, the head jumped towards him.
This man's name was Niu Er. Although he was born strong and had killed many people as a bandit in the past, he had been afraid of ghosts and monsters since he was a child.
The bandits lay down on the beds one after another, and soon began to snore due to the long journey.
But one of them tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep.
In a daze, he suddenly heard someone knocking on the door of the room.
Lin Xing looked at the old man's back and thought to himself, "I heard from Old Man Li that Miss Zhou has a teacher. Could this be him?"
After the other party left, Lin Xing walked forward, glanced at the burnt yellow papers, and suddenly saw some words on one of them.
But after hearing Old Man Li's stories about ghosts, Lin Xing always felt that there were many problems and the authenticity seemed very questionable.
Since neither he nor Master Bai knew much about evil spirits, Lin Xing decided to try it out based on his own experience from reading ghost stories.
"Sure enough, we should go to Mr. Zhou's house first."
The old man with wrinkles all over his face snorted coldly and said, "Humph, I have been in the martial arts world for more than 20 years, and I have killed hundreds of people, if not thousands. If I were afraid of ghosts, I would have scared myself to death long ago."
While lying on the bed, the words that old man Li said kept ringing in my mind.
After hearing Lin Xing's words, Bai Yiyi suddenly felt a strong sense of security.
Finally, he couldn't help but quietly got up and crawled under the bed.
Lin Xing said to Old Man Li: "Uncle, pour me a pot of wine."
"Ning'er, just go with peace of mind."
After a while, a large courtyard appeared in Lin Xing's eyes. He climbed over the wall in two or three steps and began to look for the location of the well.
The whole room suddenly became silent.
Then Lin Xing looked at the well and found that the well mouth had been blocked with large stones.
With Lin Xing's current strength, he can naturally lift the boulder again.
But after lifting the boulder, he looked down at the well and found that the well was extremely deep and he could not see clearly what was inside in the dark night.
Lin Xing threw a stone down and heard a soft thump coming from deep inside the well. He suddenly realized, "There's no water... Is this a dry well?"
