"How can a powerless woman like me help you?" Zhang Meng looked at her with pursed lips.
"It's very simple. As long as you help me take my bones out from under the willow tree behind your house, I will give you food. I know a place with a lot of food. Of course, if you want gold, I can give it to you too. I can also tell you where there is gold to dig." Zhang Yu said seriously.
Zhang Meng thought about it seriously. If she could get food just by helping her remove the bones, this deal was actually quite worthwhile.
Now her family is short of food, and she is worried about where to get it.
After some serious consideration, Zhang Meng nodded vigorously. "Okay, I promise to help you take out the bones. But you can't lie to me about what you promised me just now. If you lie to me, I will bury your bones again."
Zhang Yu sneered, but still responded, "I know, I know. I'm telling you, don't underestimate us ghosts. We ghosts are also trustworthy, okay?"
Zhang Meng wasn't in the mood to listen to her nonsense, so she interrupted immediately, "Then let's do it later, after my grandma and the others fall asleep, okay?"
Zhang Yu replied with a bit of disappointment, "We have to wait a little longer!" Glancing at her, Zhang Yu immediately said, "Okay, we've been waiting for so many years anyway, so it doesn't matter if we wait a little longer. I'll listen to you."
At this time, Grandma Zhang's voice was heard outside, calling Zhang Meng. Zhang Meng panicked and responded outside, "I'm here, I'll be there right away."
Seeing how nervous she was, Zhang Yu burst out laughing. "Don't be nervous. You're the only one who can see me in this house now. As for your grandma and the others, they can't see me."
Zhang Meng finally breathed a sigh of relief, glanced at her floating, and quickly said, "See you tonight."
After saying this, Zhang Meng quickly ran out. It was her first time dealing with a ghost, and she was quite scared.
At nine o'clock in the evening, Zhang Meng, lying in bed, made sure that her grandmother and brother next door were asleep, then she quietly opened the door and walked into the utility room in the west room.
"You're finally here. If you hadn't come earlier, I would have thought you were going to go back on your word." As soon as she came in, a cold wind suddenly blew towards Zhang Meng's face, followed by a sinister voice ringing in her ear.
Zhang Meng took two steps back in fright, looking palely at the female ghost Zhang Yu who suddenly appeared next to her.
"But, am I so scary? I was a young girl when I died. I don't know how beautiful I was." Seeing that she was so afraid of him, Zhang Yu looked at her with disdain.
Zhang Meng swallowed hard, "You're a ghost now, of course I'm scared. And you suddenly appeared in front of me without a word, anyone would be scared."
Zhang Yu curled his lips, and immediately his eyes were filled with impatience, "Hurry up, hurry up and help me dig out the bones."
Zhang Meng took a deep breath and responded, "I know. Come with me and show me the place." After that, she picked up the hoe and walked out of the house.
After walking a few steps, he realized that the female ghost beside him had not followed him. "Why aren't you following me? Don't you want me to dig out your bones quickly?"
Zhang Yu lowered his head and whispered, "I can't leave this room."
Zhang Meng put down the hoe and walked up to her. "Why is this happening?"
"Because someone buried a talisman under my bones. It was that talisman that has trapped me in this house since my death."
Zhang Meng exclaimed "Ah", this plot seemed like a movie plot from her previous life.
In her previous life, she would occasionally watch TV when she had free time, and there was a period of time when these ghost movies were the most popular.
Seeing how disappointed she was, Zhang Meng quickly persuaded her, "Okay, don't be sad. I'll help you dig out the bones. Just wait here."
Zhang Yu immediately raised his head and said to Zhang Meng with a smile, "Thank you so much. Don't worry, I will definitely do what I promised you. Go quickly."
Zhang Meng looked at the smile on her face and suddenly felt as if she had been deceived.
But no matter what, since Zhang Meng has promised someone else something, she must do it.
So when there was no one around, Zhang Meng carried a hoe and came to a willow tree behind his house.
This willow tree has existed as long as she can remember. She is seventeen years old now, which means that the tree must be more than seventeen years old.
However, what she didn't expect was that there was a skeleton buried in the place where she loved to play as a child.
Because he didn't know where the body was buried, Zhang Meng dug a piece here and there under the willow tree. After digging countless holes, he finally found something wrapped in a straw mat on the east side of the willow tree.
As soon as she brought it up, she suddenly heard Zhang Yu's voice in her ears, "Yes, this is it. I am finally free."
Zhang Meng fell to the ground in shock. She looked up at her helplessly and angrily, "I beg you to tell me next time you show up. If you do this again, I'll be scared to death."
Zhang Yu chuckled and put his hands together to apologize, "I'm sorry I scared you again, but don't worry, you helped me, and I'll help you too. The food you want is in a cave on the mountain. That's where my family used to store food, but it was all gone before my family could even eat it."
Seeing that she seemed to be getting sad again, Zhang Meng had no choice but to persuade her again, "Don't be sad. At worst, when my life gets better, I can find a monk to help you pass away."
Zhang Yu shook his head and said, "No, I won't reincarnate. I want to find the murderer who killed my family."
Zhang Meng scratched his neck. He felt a little uncomfortable talking to a ghost. He was afraid that if he said something that the ghost didn't want to hear, it would get angry at him, which would be terrible.
"Can we go get the food tomorrow? My family is short of food right now." Zhang Meng looked at her cautiously.
"Okay, I'll come see you tomorrow. You go back to sleep, and I'll go out for a walk to see how many people like me there are in this village." After saying this, Zhang Yu disappeared from Zhang Meng's sight with a whoosh.
Although he knew that the other party was a ghost, Zhang Meng still felt a little uncomfortable when he saw the other party disappear from his sight without a word.
Having found food, Zhang Meng slept soundly for the rest of the night.
When she woke up the next day, Grandma Zhang saw her granddaughter covered in dirt and scolded her with a smile, "You little kid, you slept on the floor again, didn't you?"
Zhang Meng looked at the mud on her body and didn't dare to tell her grandmother that she had gone to help ghosts last night. She could only smile foolishly and pretend to be confused to get away with it.
