Chapter 86: Little Devil Carrying a Sedan Chair
Chapter 86: Little Devil Carrying a Sedan Chair
"What is this doing?"
It was morning again. Bai Rourou looked at the servants busy in the yard and asked subconsciously.
She originally didn't want to stay in the Tan Mansion for long, especially after knowing that Tan Wenjie might have different feelings for her, but since they had agreed to go to Zhuge's house together yesterday, she agreed to stay for one night.
The maids came over smartly and said, "Madam, it's the master who wants to take a photo. I heard it's a Western thing that can print a person's face on it, just like the real thing."
Mr. Tan was planning to standardize the store after Xiaohong finished the first phase of auditing and rectifying the accounts, so taking photos to keep information materials and even printing work permits were on the agenda.
Not only that, those foreign goods shops also have to introduce modern management, giving people the feeling that although the money spent here is expensive, it is worth it. The more expensive the goods, the higher the quality. In this era, those who can casually afford foreign goods are all rich people.
So many maids in the mansion dressed themselves up beautifully and wanted to take a photo.
"What Madam?" Bai Rourou's face changed and she wanted to explain, but the maids covered their mouths and laughed as they left.
We have been staying in the mansion for two days and had dinner with the master last night. Who would believe that a single man and a single woman could have no problems?
However, she could only be a concubine but not a wife. How could a wife who was married in a formal ceremony move into the house and live there without getting married?
Tan Wenjie stretched his muscles, changed his clothes and walked over.
"Didn't you say you were leaving for my senior brother's house today?" Bai Rourou asked, but she kept her wife's words in her heart and didn't ask. She would leave today and would not be likely to come back in the future. So let it be a misunderstanding.
"Yes."
Tan Wenjie stood still, waiting for the maid to help him adjust his cuffs and collar. In his heart, he spit on the evil old society, but he said, "My master wants my photo."
Hearing that he was his master, Bai Rourou didn't say much, as long as it didn't delay his departure.
He first took a few photos of Tan Wenjie, and then he waved his hand and asked all the maids and old women in the mansion to take a photo. After the photos were developed, they would be pasted on the shift schedule when it was changed. It would be better to get a work ID card as well, which could be regarded as a benefit for the employees. Taking a photo nowadays is not cheap, and only Master Tan would take photos without blinking an eye.
Bai Rourou had been busy waiting for him all day, and as the sun was setting but there was still no sign of him leaving, she couldn't help but become anxious.
Bai Rourou: "Why aren't you leaving yet?"
Tan Wenjie: "According to your method, we will have to ride a horse, take a boat, and then cross mountains and ridges. It will take at least ten days or half a month to get there."
Bai Rourou: "Then how do you want to get there?"
Tan Wenjie: "The mountain man has his own clever plan."
I took a taxi.
The night wind is bleak.
crossroads.
Tan Wenjie stood in front of the door carrying a suitcase, burned a stack of paper money, then lit incense and bowed in the direction of Renjia Town, and inserted three incense sticks in the rice bowl.
"You want to entertain ghosts?" Bai Rourou understood his plan, but she didn't object to it. The Zhuge family has long had the habit of raising ghost servants.
It is different from Maoshan. Most of Maoshan disciples are not allowed to raise ghosts. The lifelong struggle between good and evil is the first commandment after joining.
Tan Wenjie: "It's a sedan chair. Ghosts can travel thousands of miles at night and go anywhere. They are always faster than us on two legs."
Bai Rourou said, "The ghost you are talking about is not an ordinary ghost. An ordinary ghost can't fly very far in one night."
She knows more about ghosts than Tan Wenjie.
Ordinary ghosts can also carry people on their backs, but human skin is heavy and it is difficult to move forward with the person on their backs. Only those with special powers can do this.
As we were talking, we suddenly heard the sound of children singing in the air.
"The bright moon shines, the wind blows through the willow alleys
It's a female ghost looking for Ai Lang
Who is willing to love the ghost bride
Accompanying the female ghost to secretly worship the moonlight late at night
Bai Rourou turned her head and saw a sedan chair being carried by four paper ghost bearers blown by the cold wind. On both sides were young men and women wearing bellybands but with pale faces and only red rouge on their cheeks, shaking their heads and singing.
The song has no ups and downs, but there is a sense of sorrow that cannot be ignored.
The sedan stopped in front of the two of them, and a female ghost in a wedding dress flew out. Who else could it be but Xiaoyu.
However, Tan Wenjie wanted to complain in his heart, why was Xiaoyu like a sprinkler truck, flying towards him while playing music, the smell was too pungent.
Bai Rourou was alert in her heart. This ghost was quite capable and also very pretty. "Xiaoyu, do you like the rich fortune I cooked for you?" Tan Wenjie asked.
"Thank you, sir." Xiaoyu covered the lower half of her face with the fan and smiled.
The rotten half of the face should be covered.
Although Bai Rourou, who did not have the Yin-Yang Eyes, could see ghosts, she could not see through illusions like after opening her eyes. So in her eyes, Tan Wenjie and the female ghost were talking and laughing, and she felt a little uncomfortable.
It was agreed that Xiaoyu's sedan would be borrowed and the two of them would fly directly to their destination.
Xiaoyu: "I can only carry you for 800 miles at night. And my sedan chair is made of paper, so be careful not to break it when you sit on it."
Tan Wenjie: "I'll burn a plane for you later."
There is no problem even if the spaceship is burned. The only problem is that these paper toys are just for show. How far they can fly and how they can fly depends entirely on the ghost's own ability.
Xiaoyu was already pretty good, but it was a bit difficult for her to carry a sedan chair with two people on it. She couldn't fly wherever she wanted as a ghost.
As for the ghosts around Tan Wenjie, they have different abilities because they are from different worlds, but none of them has the ability to fly around carrying people.
Tan Wenjie handed the box to Xiaoyu, lifted the curtain and walked in.
He could barely fit into the sedan chair carried by four people. Just as he was sitting down, Bai Rourou squeezed in. She looked around but couldn't find a place to sit.
Oops, I actually forgot to prepare a bigger sedan chair for Xiaoyu in advance. Now the two of us can only squeeze into each other.
How careless.
Tan Wenjie had an expression that I didn't expect, but he patted his thigh, motioned Bai Rourou to sit on it, and said righteously: "Go and save your brother. It will take one night."
Xiaoyu's voice came from outside: "Hurry up and sit still."
The sedan chair was shaking, and Bai Rourou cried out "Ah!" and threw herself into Tan Wenjie's arms.
Suddenly being hit by two mountains, Tan Wenjie suddenly sympathized with Monkey King's hard work. He also had a question at this time: Monkey King was pressed under the mountain for 500 years. Did he ever think that his posture was wrong and he wanted to turn over?
It’s better not to turn over, it’s good like this.
Stab it!
Bai Rourou tried to climb up from Tan Wenjie's arms and raised her hand to grab, but accidentally tore the paper sedan.
Tan Wenjie quickly picked her up by the waist and placed her on his knees. He did not dare to step hard on the bottom of the paper sedan and could only use his core strength to hold on. Seeing that he was already more than ten meters off the ground, if the paper sedan was torn, the newspaper flying cap would not be enough, as such a strong wind would easily tear the newspaper as well.
The ghost sedan is really not suitable for humans to sit in.
The cold wind from high in the sky blew into the paper sedan. The two were so quiet that only the sound of their breathing could be heard. However, Tan Wenjie always adhered to the belief that he was worse than animals and did not dare to move.
The paper sedan is shaking, which is extremely difficult.
He flipped over his hand and took out the disposable newspaper flying cap that was not yet scrapped and put it on his head. With the paper sedan outside to block the wind, he didn't have to worry about the newspaper flying cap being torn by the wind.
The next moment, the paper sedan that was swaying and struggling to fly in the air suddenly accelerated as if it had lost its burden.
Xiaoyu, who was floating outside, was also stunned. How could it suddenly seem like an empty sedan was being carried? If it weren't for the yang energy of Tan Wenjie flying out to nourish her, and the clear magic power of the woman, she would have really thought that there was no one inside.
Thinking of this, Xiaoyu sighed quietly. Her plan of marrying herself to him still could not go forward.
Tan Wenjie looked down through the hole torn by Bai Rourou. The moonlight was dim and it was far from the ground so he could not see clearly. Instead, he could hear "Ghost Bride" over and over again in his ears. Xiaoyu must like this song so much that she played it on repeat.
Even if it is your exclusive BGM, you will vomit if you listen to it too much.
He was just about to teach the two rich and lucky paper dolls outside to sing a song "I dare not think of you when I go to the toilet, for fear that the stinky air will desecrate you", when he found that Bai Rourou suddenly arched back.
The force on the knee suddenly turned into the force on the thigh.
Hiss, she felt relieved, but it was a huge test on her core strength.
Mr. Tan is also going to be angry.
