Chapter 85 Miss Ghost (ETL)
===
Chapter 85 Let’s go to see your mother Yu Ze
After being put down, Miss Ghost tidied up her clothes and checked herself, fearing that she didn’t look good.
Gu Ye comforted the ghost, “You looked fine, it’s beautiful.”
Miss Ghost asked embarrassedly, “There’s nothing wrong with my appearance?”
With a serious tone, Gu Ye answered, “No, your lover will definitely fall for you if he sees it.”
Miss Ghost pursed her lips embarrassedly, “Thank you. He said he would come back to marry me so he will definitely come back.”
Gu Ye asked sympathetically, “What if he can’t come back ever?”
“No,” Miss Ghost said firmly, “He promised me, he would definitely not lie to me.”
Gu Ye sighed, “Qingyi, go ask this big tree what happened in this yard.”
Qingyi was a bamboo that grew in the Temple of the God of War hundreds of years ago. She absorbed the power of human faith and turned into a human form a hundred years later. Then, she was injured by people from the Xuanshu Association and was saved by Gu Ye. In order to repay his kindness, she agreed to protect Gu Ye for a hundred years. Since she is a plant, she can communicate with other plants.
Qingyi put her hand on the tree. After a few minutes, she pointed to a place in the corner, “There used to be a well here, and that man was her teacher. After he died, he was pushed into the well. After she knew it, she committed sui-ci-de in the name of their love.”
Hearing that, Gu Ye’s expression changed. Miss Ghost shook her head in disbelief, “Impossible!”
As a bamboo, Qingyi does not have much human feelings, and will not understand the female ghost’s feelings. So she added bluntly, “Your father thought he was poor and killed him.”
“No!” Miss Ghost said agitatedly, “My father will not! My father will not do this! He will not die! He said he would pass the imperial examination! He will come back to marry me! I want to wait for him here! No matter how many years! I will wait for him!”
Miss Ghost became more and more agitated as she spoke, holding her head, not daring to look in that direction. Although she had lost her memory of that period, that place still made her instinctively resist.
Gu Ye calmly watched the ghost break down and cry. Even if it was cruel, he still had to tell her the truth, “He died a long time ago. It’s impossible for him to come back to marry you. You have bitterly waited for hundreds of years in the human world and experienced the changes of dynasties, but you still haven’t waited for him to come. Even if you wait for thousands of years more, the result will be the same. He will not come back. He is already dead.”
“No! You guys are lying!” Countless thoughts flashed in Miss Ghost’s mind. As Gu Ye and Qing Yi told her the truth, some memories that she had left behind and dared not touch gradually came back, making her collapse mentally and she took a few steps back. Not wanting to listen to their words that hurt her heart, Miss Ghost’s ghostly figure flashed and she ran away.
Gu Ye sighed helplessly, “A wait of several hundred years, a dream in vain. After all, the person is no longer here; ‘there are flowers but no fruits’. Qingyi, follow her, and don’t lose her. If we don’t let her face the reality, she will not end this bitter wait.”
Qingyi nodded and followed the aura of Miss Ghost. Gu Ye went to ask Chang Ping, “Teacher Chang, do we still have a few security personnel left in our crew?”
Chang Ping was scared when he saw Gu Ye talking to an invisible person just now. Now he admires Gu Ye very much. When Gu Ye asked, he nodded quickly and actively cooperated, “Yes, is there anything we can help with?”
“Since they are all young and strong men, that’s easy. Do you have a hoe and a shovel? I need them to help me dig a well.”
“Dig a well?” Chang Ping was stunned by the question. When he saw Gu Ye was not joking, he answered seriously, “Yes! We have tools here because we repaired the ground before. I will go and call someone!”
Soon, Chang Ping called over 6 or 7 young men, all holding tools in their hands. With more people, the men felt bolder and followed Gu Ye to the back garden. Gu Ye pointed to the flat ground in the corner and said, “Thank you for your work, please help me dig out this well.”
Several people looked at each other. One of the men who looked more friendly and liked to joke around couldn’t help but say, “Then where is the well?”
Chang Ping glared at the young man and said, “This is the famous master I invited.”
Everyone wanted to see if Gu Ye was really that amazing, so they dug hard. Soon, they dug up the soil layer about 20 centimeters above and discovered a large stone slab below.
“Shiet! Could there be really a well?!” The security personnel were worried. They all knew that the crew was haunted, so someone asked worriedly, “Will we dig up the ghost’s hiding place?”
After hearing this, the men became even more scared. They all looked at Gu Ye with a troubled expression, not daring to do anything else further.
Gu Ye smiled and comforted the men, “Don’t worry, this is not the hiding place of the female ghost. It has been hundreds of years, and the person down here has long turned into dust. I’m just checking to see if there are any personal accessories left.”
“Someone died in it?!”
“China is so big, where haven’t people died in? Where haven’t we fought a war on? There might be people who died right under your feet now. We are not doing anything wrong, so what are we afraid of? Keep going!” Chang Ping encouraged everyone, “After we finish this matter tonight, I will give everyone red envelopes tomorrow morning, 800 yuan per person.”
‘Money can make the devil work’, so when the red envelope reward was mentioned, the security personnel mustered up their courage and lifted the stone slab. There was really a big black hole underneath, which looked like a well that had dried up long ago.
The well was surrounded by bluestone slabs, and the workmanship was exquisite, so there was not much damage. Gu Ye waited for the dust to settle, then looked inside with his hands behind his back. It was pitch black and nothing could be seen.
Chang Ping shone a flashlight, but could not see much as well.
Gu Ye turned and said to the empty space in the corner, “Gou Ya, go down and look for anything left down there.”
Everyone felt a cool breeze around them, and a black object jumped into the well. This scared the security personnel, who hurriedly stepped back. 2 minutes later, a bark sounded from the bottom of the well. Then, a jade pendant floated up by itself onto Gu Ye’s hand.
The expressions of the onlookers changed, and Gu Ye smiled, “Don’t be afraid, this is my divine beast!”
Security personnel: “…”
After a little joking to ease the mood, Gu Ye ended up amusing himself. Taking the jade pendant to Qingyi, he found that Miss Ghost had been forced into the dark corner by Qingyi and was squatting there crying.
Gu Ye walked over and handed the jade pendant to Miss Ghost. He comforted her, “As a poor scholar, he shouldn’t have such a quality thing in his possession. That means he took the token of love you gave him with him before he died. He didn’t let you down.”
Miss Ghost held the jade pendant in both hands and cried bitterly, “I remember it, I remember it all. Why do you have to tell me? Can’t you just let me wait for him forever?”
Qingyi said indifferently, “Instead of living in a dream, it is better to face reality. Otherwise, what is the difference between you and a fool?”
Qingyi’s lack of tact is making Gu Ye speechless so he waved his hand to signal: You step back, I will talk.
Qingyi turned into a wisp of green smoke and got into Gu Ye’s backpack. Only Gu Ye and Miss Ghost were left at the scene now.
Seeing Gu Ye’s gentle expression, Miss Ghost let down her guard and cried, “At first, he was my teacher. He was very knowledgeable and had a good temper. We fell in love with each other over time. But my father didn’t agree with us being together. He looked down on him and believed that he was not worthy of me. He drove him away and wanted to marry me to someone else. After hearing the news, Teacher begged my father to give him 2 years; to wait for him to take the imperial examination and come back to marry me. My father refused. Then, fearing that Teacher would spread the news and ruin my reputation, he killed him.”
Miss Ghost held the jade pendant tightly with both hands and put it on her heart as if she wanted to sense the other’s heartbeat. Her eyes were red and her ghost aura started spreading. The more she spoke, the heavier her resentment became.
“My father had his body pushed into the well, which my maid coincidentally witnessed and she ran back to tell me. I was filled with grief and anger. That night, I put on a wedding dress for him and followed him to death. He hated me! He must have hated me! Otherwise, why couldn’t I find him?”
Gu Ye held a talisman between two fingers and pasted it on Miss Ghost’s forehead to suppress her resentment and killing aura. He said gently, “You have waited for hundreds of years, that’s enough.”
“Not enough! Teacher must be angry! I have caused his death!” Miss Ghost’s resentment became stronger and stronger. If it weren’t for the talisman, she would have turned into an evil spirit on the spot, “I hate it! But I don’t know who to hate! Hate my father? Hate my mother? Hate myself?”
Gu Ye pasted another talisman on Miss Ghost’s head and said lightly, “Then you should hate that unfair world. Maybe he is waiting for you in this world. The world now is fair and you can be together.”
This word of fairness made Miss Ghost’s eyes light up. She looked up at Gu Ye for confirmation, “Really?”
Gu Ye smiled, squatted down, and said gently, “Yes, you can look for him in this world. If you are destined to meet him in this world, no one can prevent you from being together. Let go of your obsession and reincarnate. Maybe he has been waiting for you.”
Half an hour later, Chang Ping looked at Gu Ye coming out of the back garden holding a jade pendant. He asked nervously, “Master Gu, is this ghost gone?”
Gu Ye said with relief, “She left and went to find her sweetheart.”
Hearing that, Chang Ping was relieved, “So, we can continue shooting tomorrow?”
Gu Ye nodded, “No one will use your props to dress up in the future.”
Chang Ping happily stuffed a red envelope into Gu Ye’s pocket, “Thank you, Master Gu! You’ve worked hard!”
After Gu Ye got in the car, he opened the red envelope and saw a check for 200,000 yuan. He raised his lips, took the money, and put the jade pendant away. After hesitating for a while, he drove straight to Yu Ze’s home.
Some people have deep feelings but shallow fates, and they have no chance to be together in their lifetime. For those who can be together, how much blessing did they cultivate in their previous life? If you don’t cherish the person in front of you, even God can’t stand it.
Realizing that this was not the route home, Ye Li, who had been silent all the way, asked from Gu Ye’s bag, “Where are we going?”
Gu Ye smiled and said, “I’m taking you to recognize the road home1 and to visit your mother.”
…
Yu Ze had a lot of work at the company today, so he didn’t get home until after 10.00 pm. Just after taking a shower, he heard Gu Ye knocking on the door, “Wife, open the door. Your man is home.”
Yu Ze was very surprised by the visit and automatically ignored Gu Ye’s naughty words. As soon as he opened the door, Gu Ye threw himself on him. Yu Ze subconsciously hugged the person in his arms tightly.
Gu Ye hugged Yu Ze and then raised his head. He angrily tightened up Yu Ze’s pajamas and said, “The child is here! You as the mother, should pay attention to the (indecent) impact (to the child)!”
Yu Ze: “… mother? Who?”
