A letter left in a ghost den? The first time I heard the word "ghost den" was from Hu Lingshang. It was from hearing about a guy called the Lord of Ghost Den. Since the words left on the bamboo slips included the word "ghost den", it must be related to the Lord of Ghost Den. Since the bamboo slips were left by the Lord of Ghost Den, then the place where the box was found must also have a great relationship with the Lord of Ghost Den.

From the information we have gathered so far, we can learn that the Zhenming Umbrella was originally an evil weapon of the Lord of the Ghost Cave. Just now, Yunwen told me when she was still conscious underwater that the material of the Zhenming Umbrella was a kind of tree called 縢 as recorded on the bamboo slips. It was said that it was made by Zuo Muxin. I remember that the bamboo slips said that wooden hearts are divided into yin and yang, so there should be two wooden hearts of yin and yang. If Zuo Muxin made this umbrella, there should be another one.

Since ancient times, yin and yang are mutually exclusive. Zuo Muxin is the yin, and was made into this kind of evil umbrella. So there should be a yang side, You Muxin. Could that be the antidote to the Zhenming umbrella? Yin disappears and yang grows, and yin grows and yang disappears. This is the truth. If this is the case, why not investigate in this direction? Maybe we can find a way to save Yunwen?

"Yes, I should have thought of this. Yunwen, aren't you afraid that your appearance will affect me and make me feel inferior? Then if I help you cancel this so-called contract or curse, can't we go back to the past and live in peace? I should make up my mind to help you do it, so that you will not cancel our engagement, right?" I said.

Yunwen stood in front of me woodenly. I couldn't tell what her expression was, but I could vaguely feel that there was worry in her eyes. I didn't know why, but I had made up my mind to fulfill the promise I made in the cabin and let Yunwen truly live, instead of being half-dead.

The only clue now is the strange copper box. After all, there are sawdust and a letter from the Lord of Ghost in it, and it is empty. It is the closest to the You Muxin I am looking for. Today, I saw that the hyena queen Huahua's attitude was obviously different from before. From this, I can think that maybe the things hidden in it were taken away and hidden by her, and among the hidden things, You Muxin might be there.

Thinking of this, I have to go back to the hyena people's residence on the hillside of Diaolou Mountain to ask for Huahua.

Now the sun is not as scorching as before, so I lay on the shore in the sun for a while, drying myself naturally. When I was almost dry, I put on my clothes and went back the same way. Although Yunwen was soaked, she was a living corpse now, living and conscious on the breath of her residual soul, so her body had no concept of temperature at all. Although she was soaked just now, it was basically no problem for her.

Because of the lesson from last time, this time, I carried her directly up the ramp from downstream to upstream. After going up, I opened the door to the backyard and saw Bai Lu sitting in a chair in a daze. When she saw me come in, she immediately stood up and said, "Are you done washing?"

I nodded and said perfunctorily, "Well, but I have to go out now. You don't need to water the land today. You can take care of the house."

She walked towards me and said, "Go out? Where to? You regret it again and plan to call back that vixen who keeps taking advantage of you, right?"

I was too lazy to talk nonsense with her, so I said, "Yesterday I heard you call her Sister Lingshang, why did you change your tune today? I handled the matter wrongly today, and I really have to go and apologize to her someday. Okay, I'm in a hurry here, so I won't say any more to you. If you have time at home, sweep the floor and tidy up. If you want to rest, that's fine. After all, we have enough food now, and there's not so much to worry about. I have to hurry out, and we'll talk about other things when we have time."

After I finished speaking, I was about to leave. Bai Lu got so angry that she blocked my way and yelled, "Zhou Bo, I've been waiting for you for a long time. Can't you sit down and chat with me? Tell me clearly today where you are going and what you are doing, or I won't let you leave."

I said with disgust: "Song Bailu, you have crossed the line. You are not my wife, so don't act like a mistress. Besides, I have made it clear, don't think I don't know what you have done. I will give you some time to reflect on yourself and I won't let you be embarrassed by the punishment you have given me."

After saying that, I pushed her away and went out. Yunwen followed closely behind me. Song Bailu chased to the door and shouted, "Reflect? You are the one who should reflect. Why did I do that? Why did I let that little hyena man scratch me on purpose? Why did I trample on the fields? Wasn't it all to make you trust me and value me, so that you can understand that only my wisdom is worthy of you? If I don't do these, you will only treat me as a maid and old woman, and you won't even look at me, let alone become your wife. I do this because of you!"

I was stunned. I didn't force her to say anything, but she took the initiative to admit more, thinking that I had already noticed it. I did guess about the field, but I was caught off guard by the matter of the little hyena man. It turned out that Song Bailu wrote, directed and acted in a sad drama, just to make me believe that the hyena man was bad. She had foresight and made me feel that she was worthy of me and that other girls were not as good as her, so I looked at her differently.

Now I finally understand the situation. It really caught me off guard.

"How dare you say these things? Your little conspiracy caused the little hyena man to be bitten to death by his own mother on the spot, and he lost his life. What wisdom are you still talking about? It's so stupid! I will let you kill me sooner or later, and I will come back to settle the score with you." I sighed.

If I hadn't been busy dealing with Yunwen's affairs, I would really have gotten angry and scolded her. However, the box was still in Huahua's "bedroom", and since the bamboo slips had been taken away by me, I was afraid that the strange copper box would be disposed of, so I had to hurry over. So even if I was dissatisfied with her now, I could only scold her temporarily and could not continue talking.

After saying that, I headed out of the yard without looking back. It was a good opportunity to take a walk in the hot summer, so I led him out together. When we reached the gate of the yard, I heard Song Bailu shouting at the top of her lungs: "Okay! Zhou Bo, you forced me to do this, you forced me to do this."

I don't know what she wants to do, but I know she has always cherished her life, she would never commit suicide or harm herself, and now I can't take care of her, after all, my affairs are also very urgent. I don't know what she is angry about? I have already clearly told her the conditions before, in the future, I will be responsible for food, clothing, housing and transportation, but I will not take care of other things, and she agreed at that time.

Why is she going crazy again? Well, I can only say that some women's hearts are really wavering and hard to figure out.

We can only talk about everything after I have dealt with my affairs and during dinner.

So Yunwen followed behind, and I led Sanfu, and we passed the hyena people's stall area again. However, this time, they seemed to look at me with something strange. The patrolling hyena guards were no longer visible, let alone the big fangs. The number of people setting up stalls was also much less. More importantly, some mermaids were heading towards the hillside and directly entered the hillside occupied by the hyena people. According to the past, isn't this a taboo?

Otherwise, why did they install an iron fence gate at the bottom of the hill and arrange guards to guard it? Isn't it to prevent others from entering that sensitive area in the future?

Moreover, those mermaids seemed to be in a hurry, using their fish tails to walk fast, as if they were rushing to do something. But that place was the residence of the hyena people. There were caves carved into the mountain walls, and they were filled with women, children, and the elderly. What could the mermaids do there?

I thought, oh no, they are going to auction the things in the box, so all the mermaids have been sent there!

Thinking of this, I asked Sanfu to squat down and report Yunwen up. I also got on the horse and shouted, asking Sanfu to gallop away. I thought to myself, I hope the things will not be auctioned off, otherwise those mermaids will take them to the underground sea and I will not be able to find them.

We were galloping all the way, but I seemed to sense something was wrong. The jungle around me seemed to have eyes staring at me. By listening to the sounds, I could sense that something seemed to be hidden in it. Moreover, from the military training during that period, I was already familiar with the rhythm of the hyenas moving in the bushes, and this rhythm seemed to be the sound in the jungle. The sound of stones rolling down the mountain wall also made me a little uneasy.

In short, it can be summed up in one word, and it is murderous!
