The situation in Jintang has just stabilized, and Huang Mengting needs to stay for two more days to handle the affairs in the hall.

Master Fang and Master Xie were both dead, and many things in the hall needed to be connected. Huang Mengting was so busy from morning to night.

Anyway, we were all out for fun. Since we couldn't leave in the past two days, we simply didn't bother Huang Mengting, and the four of us sneaked into Fengdu City to play alone.

In fact, during the day, Fengdu City is a small county town in Linjiang, which is no different from an ordinary county town.

Perhaps due to geographical location, the population in the county is not very large, and the streets are clean and deserted.

Since you have arrived on Chongqing's territory, hot pot is definitely an indispensable delicacy.

We found a time-honored hot pot restaurant, which is called "Chongqing Old Hot Pot", and the taste is still quite authentic.

The rich spicy flavor is paired with Sichuan's unique numb flavor, and the spicy and fragrant smell comes to your face. Just looking at the hot pot full of peppers, it feels hot and joyful, and the diners are in a great mood.

We were eating hot pot and drinking beer in big mouthfuls. This feeling was really great.

Although the food in Jintang is very good every day, for us, the delicacies of mountains and sea are not as attractive as roadside stalls. I would rather choose to eat hot pot every meal. The feeling of spitting fire in my mouth can only be described in one word.

Our dinner started eating from the evening and drank until almost midnight.

The boss came over and urged us three times. When the last time, Leizi was a little unhappy. As long as this guy was drinking, he couldn't even pull him away. I saw that the boss was talking a few more words, Leizi would probably copy the wine bottle and explode his head.

Lei Zi slapped the table and said, "What's wrong? Are you afraid that we can't afford to pay?"

Facing the vicious Lei Zi, the boss could only smile and say, "Big brother, don't be angry, I don't mean to drive the passengers!"

"Then don't talk, I'm happy yet!" Lei Zi glared at the boss, and his fierce gaze was like a knife, which actually stabbed the boss two steps back.

The boss looked up at the wall clock on the wall, looking a little anxious. He rubbed his hands and said to Leizi: "Brother, I didn't drive you away. You came to play outside, right? Maybe you don't know the rules here!"

"What's the matter? What's the rule?" Lei Zi held a cigarette in his mouth, and the ruffianism he used to be in the society was revealed again.

The boss said: "That's right. Isn't our Fengdu Ghost City here? There are two worlds in Fengdu Ghost City!"

"Two worlds? What does it mean?" Lei Zi asked with his squinted eyes.

The boss coughed twice, lowered his voice, looking mysterious: "There is one world during the day, and one world at night! The world during the day is dominated by living people! At night, Fengdu City is... the underworld! As long as twelve o'clock, Fengdu City is dominated by ghosts!"

I looked at the wall clock on the wall. It was already 23:45, and there was only a quarter of an hour left before midnight.

I looked at the owner of the hot pot restaurant. He looked about forty years old, with dark skin and a little bald hair. I don’t know if it was because he stayed in the kitchen all day long, but his head looked shiny. Especially, he was wearing a pair of glasses, and the lenses seemed to be covered with a layer of oil smoke forever, which was blurry.

The atmosphere in the room suddenly became quiet and looked extremely strange.

There was only one table of guests left in the hot pot restaurant, and many waiters were off work, leaving only the boss.

A gust of wind came back from outside the door, causing the incandescent lamp above our heads to sway, and the shadows we reflected on the wall also swayed.

After a few seconds of silence, Lei Zi suddenly burst into laughter, which scared the boss.

The boss was so scared that he staggered backwards and almost fell to the ground.

He quickly held his glasses and looked at Lei Zi in confusion: "What are you... laughing at?"

Lei Zi said: "You think we are three-year-old children? If you want to drive us away, just say it clearly, what are you doing for these planes? You also make up these ridiculous reasons to scare us? Haha, you are really looking for the wrong person! Let me tell you, even if Fengdu City becomes an underworld at night, we are not afraid!"

Seeing Lei Zi's attitude, the boss became more and more anxious: "Brother, what I told you is the truth, why don't you believe it? You said you went to Fengdu for a long trip. If... if there is something wrong with you, it is not easy to explain to your family, right?"

"Damn!" Lei Zi slapped the table and stood up, rolled up his sleeves, and almost poked his fingers on the boss's nose: "You bastard, are you cursing us?"

Leizi was going to beat someone with alcohol. The boss was so scared that he ran around the table: "Big brother! Brother! Grandpa! If you are really not afraid of death, just stay here. I can't control you anymore!"

I saw that the boss didn't seem to be joking, so I asked Lei Zi to sit down and gave Chen Shiba a look, asking him to look at Lei Zi and not let Lei Zi make trouble. Then I stood up and said to the owner of the hot pot restaurant: "Brother, let's talk!"

When I walked to the door of the hot pot restaurant, I handed the boss a cigarette: "Sorry, our brother may have drunk too much and was more excited. Don't take it to your heart!"

The boss took the cigarette: "Brother, you are still a reasonable person! As for you, I am really for your own good. I don't want any accidents you have in Fengdu City!"

I smiled, patted the boss on the shoulder and said, "Brother, I understand your kindness! But can you tell me that this Fengdu City... is it really as terrible as you said?"

The boss lit a cigarette and said seriously: "Every place has rules for every place. Let's put it this way, if you obey the rules of Fengdu City, then there will be no accidents. But if you do not abide by the rules here, you may get into trouble!"

"Rules? What rules?" I asked curiously.

The boss said: "For thousands of years, there has been an unwritten rule in Fengdu City. After midnight, you must not continue to stay on the street, otherwise you will be provoked by unclean things!"

Speaking of this, the boss vomited a smoke ring and put it in my ear, and said mysteriously: "Brother, what I said to you just now is true, without any false statement! Our Fengdu is two worlds, the world of living people during the day, and after midnight, it is the world of ghosts. If you stay outside after midnight, you may... hit a ghost!

You are still young, and I don’t want to see something happen to you, so I really don’t drive you away, but I want you to rush back to the hotel before midnight and don’t come out again!”

Hit the ghost?!

I smiled. For us, we were not afraid of hitting ghosts at all.

If you want to say that you are real fear, it should be those ghosts who are afraid of us.

I didn't say anything. The boss saw a smile on the corner of my mouth, thinking that I was laughing at him in my heart, and immediately got angry and stood up: "If you don't believe it, I can't do anything! I'll tell you everything I can. If you insist on being obsessed with it, I don't want to be pulled into the water! If you don't leave, I...I'll leave..."

I glanced at the wall clock on the wall, and there were only less than ten minutes left.

Deep down in my heart, I don’t want the boss to stay here. One is to affect our drinking, and the other is that if something really happens, I don’t want him to be a burden, so I want to help him away as soon as possible.

I took out a few old man's heads and stuffed them into the boss's hand: "Is this money enough?"

"Enough! Enough!" The boss nodded.

I raised my chin and said, "Well, you go back first. I have given you the money for dinner. It's okay to drink a few bottles of beer?"

When the boss thought that my advice was very good, he could rush home on the one hand, and on the other hand, he also collected money, so there was no reason to stay.

"Drink! Drink whatever you want! I sincerely hope that you don't have any accidents!" The boss accepted the money and his face improved a lot: "To be honest, two years ago, I came here with two backpackers, about the same age as you. After graduating from college, I came out to have fun before work. I also ate hot pot here very late. I was drunk and didn't go back to the hotel. I hit a ghost that night, and died and was crazy!"

Speaking of this, the boss looked at the time again: "Ah! Midnight is coming soon, I have to rush back!"

After the boss waved goodbye to me, he rushed out of the store and his figure quickly melted into the night.

The boss left and I went back to the table to sit down.

"Send it away?" Lei Zi was overjoyed.

I nodded: "I paid the money first and let the boss leave first!"

"This boss is really noisy and can't do business at all!" Lei Zi curled his lips, took a sip of beer and cursed: "If you hadn't stopped me just now, I would have shaved him and cut him down!"

"Maybe the boss didn't lie to us!" I raised my wine glass and glanced at the wall clock.

"What? You won't believe such low-level nonsense, do you?" Lei Zi sneered, took a piece of beef from the pot, and ate it in a slight way: "Well, it's delicious! It's delicious!"

I took a sip of wine, put down my glass and said, "I don't think the boss is saying anything! He doesn't need to make up such nonsense to scare us! Fengdu City may be what he said. It is the world of living people during the day and the world of ghosts at night. Didn't Brother Wei say it before? In fact, the reason why Fengdu City is called Fengdu Ghost City is because there are really ghosts in Fengdu City. This is a gateway to the underworld of the living world, so it is not strange that there are two worlds of Yin and Yang here!"

Chen Shiba said: "It can be seen that the order of yin and yang here is quite good, at least the distinction between yin and yang is not chaotic! The human world and the ghost world are managed separately, and the well water does not interfere with the river water. After so many years, we have been peaceful!"
