Xu Jianshan didn't want to take anyone on a tour.
He frowned and looked at Yaya: "Little Taoist priest, I still want to stay here and wait for my wife."
Yaya was very serious: "You can show him around, or you can wait for your wife. Don't you believe in Yaya?"
Xu Jianshan said nothing.
Yaya continued, "And I saved you, so you have to help Yaya to offset the cause and effect, otherwise you and your wife might miss each other because of this little coincidence."
Lu Xingyun spoke up for Yaya: "Yes, yes, Xu Jianshan, you'd better listen to our young master. I am an example. Because I didn't listen to Yaya, my girlfriend got married to someone else."
When he said the last part, Lu Xingyun's eyes turned red and he wiped away his tears secretly behind others' back.
After wiping away his tears, he turned around and said to the people who were looking at him: "I am blinded by the sand. I have let it go a long time ago. You have to believe me!"
With the example Lu Xingyun mentioned, Xu Jianshan was also scared. He could only look at Jiang Lai and politely extended his hand: "Hello, Mr. Jiang, I am Xu Jianshan."
Jiang Lai knew Xu Jianshan was a ghost, but he wasn't stupid enough to actually shake hands with him. He just pretended to shake hands with him, and said with a forced smile, "Then please show me around, Mr. Xu."
Since he had promised Yaya that he would take Jiang Lai on a tour, Xu Jianshan really took it as a job. He knew that Jiang Lai wanted to turn off his Yin-Yang eyes because he was afraid of ghosts, so he spontaneously lowered the height of his floating to make himself look like a normal person walking.
"You can take a rest here." Xu Jianshan said, "What kind of tea would you like? I'll pour it for you."
Jiang Lai opened his eyes wide: "You...you are a ghost, can you still pour me tea?"
Xu Jianshan nodded slightly.
Jiang Lai found an empty seat and sat down, then said nervously, "Well, I'll have a cup of chrysanthemum tea."
Clean teacups had already been prepared on the table, and the cups that had been used for tea would be put away by Lu Xingyun and Lin Yu.
Mo Mo, who was the first to arrive at Sanqing Temple, was also helping to clean up.
Jiang Lai observed the status of the entire rest area, and then saw a clean teacup automatically fly under an open-air tap.
The faucet was turned on out of nowhere, and water flowed out, simply rinsing the teacup.
Then the teacup flew to Jiang Lai's table and stopped. A teapot filled with chrysanthemum tea flew over and poured out light yellow tea that was emitting slightly hot steam.
"I'm so envious." Jiang Lai muttered to himself, "When I saw the live broadcast of Master Yaya entertaining the workers and controlling the teacups and teapots like this, I felt envious."
Xu Jianshan sat on the bench opposite Jiang Lai, with a hint of sadness in his eyes: "Instead of always envying others, it is better to face up to your own strengths. At least, I am not happy to learn these."
Jiang Lai realized that he might have said something wrong just now, and said awkwardly: "Sorry, it seems to have reminded you of something sad."
Xu Jianshan shook his head: "It's not you who made me think of it, it's me who thinks about it all the time."
Jiang Lai took a sip of tea.
After the sweet aroma of chrysanthemums entered his throat, he slowly felt relaxed and no longer felt that Xu Jianshan was particularly scary.
So Jiang Lai asked, "I, I'm just curious, but if it offends you, please refuse to answer. What happened between you and your wife?"
He talked about how he and his wife met at school, how his wife confessed to him and they took a simple photo in casual clothes and registered for marriage, and how the country was in turmoil at the time and he was an undercover agent for the country.
In order to justify his behavior, he and his wife agreed to act out a play. He played a scumbag who fell in love with other women, and his wife was heartbroken and divorced him on the spot and left North City.
Before leaving, his wife said to him, "Sir, I may never see you again after this departure. However, I will definitely see you again, no matter where I go."
Later, when his undercover work was on track, he discovered that his weak and kind-hearted wife had become a glorious member.
However, his wife's work focus is not in North City, so they can't even see each other.
Until he passed on the important news that they could recapture North City, his undercover identity was discovered by the enemy, and he was stabbed 108 times and died heroically. He never saw his wife again.
In order to see his wife, he became a ghost and wandered around.
At that time, he did not have the ability to control objects. He could only watch ghosts like him being taken away by the ghost catcher, but he himself escaped because he wanted to see his wife.
After escaping too many times, he became a wandering ghost. Occasionally, when the moon is high and the yin energy is strong, he will want to attack innocent people and kill them.
Xu Jianshan tried his best to suppress this instinct that was consuming him until he met a Taoist priest.

The other party said that those ghosts who don't want to be haunted will be dissipated by the evil spirit of the enemy. This is the reason why evil ghosts are afraid of evil people.
The Taoist priest told him not to appear in the center of the war again, but to return to his home with his wife and wait in peace. In the future, when the country is peaceful and the people are safe, he will surely meet his wife's reincarnation again.
"I always thought she would go home." Xu Jianshan smiled, "But I just figured it out these few days. The kind Taoist priest didn't say that my lover would come to that courtyard to find me. It was my own obsession that made me think so."
"She must have died, crossed the Naihe Bridge, and was reincarnated, right?"
After Xu Jianshan finished speaking, Jiang Lai's eyes turned red: "You are a good person, you will definitely meet your wife again!"
"But..." Xu Jianshan's eyes fell on the pilgrims around him, frowning, "Little Taoist Priest Yaya is unwilling to tell me who she is."
There were so many female pilgrims present, but none of them looked familiar to him.
Has the fate of him and his lover meeting again in reincarnation not arrived yet? Or has the reincarnated lover's face changed, and he, a vulgar man... vulgar ghost, can't recognize her? Xu Jianshan's face was full of melancholy.
Jiang Lai saw that Xu Jianshan was in a bad mood, and whispered, "Qi, actually, I always thought ghosts were scary, so I refused to talk to them. Now it seems that not every ghost is scary."
At least, Xu Jianshan was a national hero during his lifetime, and he has persisted in not hurting anyone for more than 80 years after his death. As for the live broadcast yesterday, when Xu Jianshan attacked Luo Cheng, it was because he was locked up by Luo Cheng and was forced into a corner.
When Jiang Lai felt sympathy and curiosity towards the ghost, Xu Jianshan suddenly changed his expression.
He turned into his own bloody and mangled appearance when he died, and then said to Jiang Lai in a stern voice: "Mr. Jiang, you must not be curious about every ghost. Some ghosts use this to make young people like you scapegoats."
"Little do they know that harming others will eventually harm themselves. If they think they can be reincarnated by finding someone to die for them, they are actually courting their own destruction."
Jiang Lai was frightened by Xu Jianshan's miserable condition, but soon, he stared at the bleeding wounds and shed tears silently.
