After Rebirth, I returned to Miaojiang to inherit my family business

“Have you packed everything? Don’t forget anything. It’s a five-day drive!”

“Food and clothing. Don’t press the clothes and food prepared for your grandma, cousin and younger brother. Be careful when you take the bus. You can’t say that you are dirty!”

In the bustling station hall, Mother Wu prattled about hanging big bags and small bags on Wu Rong’s hands, which was more anxious than going out.

“Alas, your grandmother’s body, I had long wanted to bring her to the city. The old lady is very stubborn. You two are just as stubborn as a mold!”

Mother Wu sighed. At the beginning, there was still time. It was only a week before Grandma Wu arrived at her ninetieth birthday. However, it would take five days on the way from Yangjiaping to Qiandongnan Security Zone, leaving them little time to prepare.

Originally, she wanted to go with Wu Rong, but Wu Rong was determined. Mother Wu was angry at first and became worried when she saw him off today. After watching the passers-by carefully, she whispered to Wu Rong:

“Have you hidden the seal script that Taoist Priest gave you?”

“Hmm.”

Wu Rong touched his chest, and the seal script Fu Qing gave him was carefully sewn into a amulet by his mother, so that he could take it with him.

“What are you touching? Are you afraid that others won’t know that you have good things with you?”

When her hand was knocked off, Mother Wu said in a low voice, “Thank you for ing back. This is a real good thing. It’s fate that people gave you. Contact him more later. If you can learn something about body protection, you don’t have to travel so far back to the Miaojiang…”

“The Z-M3056 train is arriving, please take your tickets as soon as possible and line up at the entrance.”

“Come on, e on, the train has arrived. It’s time to go!”

“Dog child, remember to call me when you get on the bus! Tell me when you get to the ground!”

Wu Rong answered calmly and easily picked up the bags and checked tickets with the crowd. He was tall and taller than others. He was very handsome and stood out in the crowd. When Wu Rong had just put his luggage away and sat down, the auntie in the bed opposite him said enthusiastically, “Young man, you are so brave. You don’t have an elder to look after you when you go out alone?”

“The Yunnan Guizhou Line will pass through five ghost regions, which is very dangerous. Young man, dare to e alone?”

Wu Rong’s mother didn’t like his job in the bar, and she hated the room and Wu Rong’s younger brothers. Originally, Wu Rong just asked for a week’s leave in the bar but didn’t talk about it carefully. Unexpectedly, his brothers came to see him off spontaneously.

On the platform, the mother, who had always been shrewd and tough, held her hands tightly and had reddened eyes. The younger brothers also frowned and smoked silently.

He didn’t blame Mother Wu for being worried, the younger brothers for being worried and for the aunt being curious.

It was too dangerous for ordinary people to travel far.

The scenery outside the window changed, and the city was left behind. The sky was suffused with faint blue light, which was pletely free of pollution. The blue was pure and bright. It was said that every city has an exorcism and anti ghost array. The security zones of cities were enveloped like eggshells, and ordinary people would not walk out of this “eggshell” in their lifetime, because it was too dangerous for them.

The train roared and whistled, and the light outside the window suddenly darkened. It seemed that from day to night, the warm yellow car light came on in the buzz, and the decorative charm carved on the car body shone slightly, dispelling ghosts and evil spirits. The light of the car body vaguely lit up the surroundings – the weeds were luxuriant, the dead trees were ferocious, the mud was creeping, and there seemed to be some terrible monster hidden below.

In the distance, there were a lot of ghostly fires floating, which were gloomy and terrible. They stayed far away in the wilderness, and seem to be looking in the direction of the train. The appearance of these non-current ghosts represented that the train had left the scope of human civilization and entered the ghost land!

It took a very long time from the appearance of the sinkholes and the arrival of the ghost land to the human counterattack and the recapture of the lost land. But until now, half of the land was still under the shadow of ghosts. The Asian Union was not a whole, but it has many safety zones, safety cities, and each urban area was a ghost land of large or small size. The safety zones were connected by special trains that were more like extended buses.

The breath carried by the ghost itself would pollute the surrounding environment and form a ghost land, just like the starving ghost Wu Rong met that day. But pared with the ghost land that the train was now entering, it was nothing. The ghost territory formed by Level C evil spirits could cover a city, the influence of Level B ghost can spread to a province, and further up if it was an A-level ghost generals. The legendary S-rank ghost king had an covering ability even more terrifying and unimaginable.

It was said that in the early days of the miraculous recovery, the ghost king born in a small country in Europe directly reduced the whole country to a ghost land, and all the souls of people in the country were polluted and became slaves of the ghost king.

Of course, there were fewer ghost ghosts than giant pandas. Most of them were in the depths of the ghost territory. During the journey from Yangjiaping to Qiandongnan, the vehicles would only pass through the periphery of a medium-sized ghost territory formed by a fierce ghost and a small ghost territory formed by the gathering of four evil ghosts. The most dangerous time was just to pass through the center of a ghost territory.

But even with train protection, crossing the ghost territory was still extremely dangerous for ordinary people. The yin aura in the ghost realm would subtly distort the souls of ordinary people, making them bee ghosts after death, so that there were more and more ghosts in the world. Therefore, every train was guarded by a ghost keeper or celestial master sent by the public security.

The strong protect the weak, and ordinary people support the capable, not bullying the weak. This was also the reason why human beings could stand firm in the miraculous ghost recovery and survive tenaciously.

“Young man, are you going over a trip?”

After a round of chatter, Auntie came back and talked to Wu Rong again: “Now people can go out and have a look. When we were your age, the alliance was not stable, and the safety zone was not safe. The ghosts came out to kill people when it was dark. Whether they could live or not depended on their lives.”

As she said this, Aunt rolled up her sleeves and revealed her left hand to Wu Rong. He saw that half of her left hand was scorched, as if she had been caught by something. From the middle finger to the little finger, they all shrunk. Only the thumb was normal. Aunt said that she was bitten by a child ghost. Several brothers and sisters in her family lost their lives, even her parents. She was the youngest, holding the family’s Da Hua and hiding under the bed, shivering.

“It was the Taoist Priest who saved my life. He was about your age at that time. He was very powerful. Once he hit the sword, the kid lost his soul. The Taoist Priest said that I could survive, thanks to Da Hua.”

Auntie touched the bottom of the bed. Beside the cloth bag was a bamboo basket covered with cloth.

Later, when Da Hua was gone, I gave it a good pillar of incense.”

Auntie picked up the bamboo basket. Something in it moved. It seemed that it was still alive.

“Auntie, why do you still take living things to the car?”

The middle-aged man on the bed was packing his things. He said curiously, “It’s time for the conductor to make an inspection tour. You should hide it well.”

“How can you talk? I brought it up with a sense of fairness. I won’t go out without it!”

The old lady gave the middle-aged man a rude look. She simply ignored him, holding the bamboo basket in her arms and talking to Wu Rong: “Young man, I think you are honest. OK, you can learn from those little bastards. It’s not bad luck to raise a pen fairy and a dish fairy. It’s important to keep a defensive object when you go out. Here, this is the grandson of Da Hua.”

Aunt opened the indigo cloth covering the bamboo basket to reveal the contents. In the bamboo basket, there was a red feather rooster. At first sight, it was a good chicken. Its crown was red as blood, its hook and sharp mouth were sharp, its eyes were energetic, like an eagle’s eyes, and it was full of sharpness and integrity.

“This time I will go back to the stockaded village to send Xiao Hua to my distant cousin.”

The aunt loved to touch the chicken head, half to show off, half to say proudly: “In those days, our stockaded village had the best chicken. Even the Taoists from Qingcheng Mountain came here to buy things. If it hadn’t been for the big Da Hua to scare away the little devil, I wouldn’t have been able to support until the Taoist priest came.”

From ancient times to the present, the cock has always been considered as an animal that could ward off evil spirits. The cock crows at sunrise to chase yin and guide yang. In ancient times, it was called “yang essence”. Taiping Yulan of the Song Dynasty wrote that “When a rooster sings, a hundred ghosts hide.” Evil spirits and monsters cannot see the light, and they are more afraid of the integrity of chickens.

“Xiao Hua cries when he sees a ghost. Tell me, is it better to raise chickens than those fox spirits?”

Wu Rong nodded, and what Auntie said really came to his heart. The world was recovering mysteriously, and ghosts are dominant, but they aren’t invincible. Everything was mutually reinforcing. When one side was strong, the other side will naturally bee stronger.

If you own a rooster and a black dog, you may have a sign in advance when the phone ghost calls.

Wu Rong moved his heart and looked at Xiao Hua. Aunt was right. This chicken really looked like someone who has gone through the world. Feeling Wu Rong’s eyes, Xiao Hua turned its head calmly.

“WA, WA, WA, WA!!!”

“Ouch, ouch! What’s wrong with you? What’s wrong with you?”

Auntie was panic stricken and almost didn’t hold the bamboo basket. The big rooster barked like crazy, which attracted everyone in the carriage to see. The big cock flapped its wings while barking. It had great power. With great effort, the bamboo basket came out of Aunt’s hand, and the ball rolled back like a chicken, rolling all the way into the bed. Some splashing white liquid was left on the ground, and chicken feathers were also adhered to it. Xiao Hua was scared out of feces.

The carriage fell into silence for a moment, leaving only the loud scream of the rooster.

Wu Rong rubbed his ears and felt upset. The idea of raising chickens disappeared instantly. He never felt that the crowing of chickens was so harsh and unpleasant, which made people upset. Unconsciously, he gave a veiled glance at Auntie.

The crowing of a chicken ended with a trembling sound.

“Ouch, A-Hua, A-Hua.”

The old lady called twice with heartache and murmured: “Why did the A-Hua cry suddenly? No, no, is there a ghost in our carriage?”

The author has something to say:

Wu Rong: Who is the ghost?

Detective Holmes Aunt’s Xiao Hua: I’m afraid!
