The dead should rest in peace

  Standing at the head of the bridge, I saw that the other end of the bridge had already begun to disappear, my feet fell empty, and my body leaned back.

  One misstep and I almost dropped the little white dog in my arms, the little white dog let out a cry of alarm and bit down on my arm, its teeth sinking deep into my flesh, the pain was excruciating but I couldn't shake it off, if I shook it off, it would definitely fall into the river filled with corpses.

  Uncle on the bridge shouted at me, "Hold still and don't move."

  I didn't dare move, tightly grasping the bridge railing that had yet to disappear. It was becoming increasingly illusory, and just a little bit more, Uncle's position would also vanish.

  The river water had a glance, and there was no corpse when I came at midnight. The river water is calm.

  Uncle stretched out his hand and grabbed me, pulling me towards him. I and Xiao Bai safely landed on the undestroyed bridge. Uncle looked at the other end of the bridge, "The Tianliang Bridge has been destroyed, it seems that only..."

  I looked at Uncle in confusion, he stretched out his hand and took out the yellow talisman that he had been carrying with him. I remembered that this was the same yellow talisman that was suppressing the steel wire mesh door outside, except that the fox on top of the yellow talisman had disappeared.

  The yellow ribbon unfolded and stretched out, connecting the other end of the bridge.

  Uncle got up, my waist tightened, the wind whistled in my ears, and when I opened my eyes again, I had already arrived on the other side of Ximen River. Uncle pinched his fingers to retrieve the yellow talisman and reattached it to the steel wire mesh door, everything returned to its original state.

  The Ximen River was quiet, and the whole city of Wanjing began to ring with the shouts of vendors selling vegetables. I held Xiaobai in my arms and returned to the hotel with Ahui.

  As soon as we arrived at the hotel, Xiao Bai jumped down from my body. Uncle helped me bandage the wound that was bleeding after being bitten by Xiao Bai. Xiao Bai wandered around under my feet, constantly rubbing against my legs and calling out to me, its eyes no longer red.

  Uncle said, "Xiaobai feels sorry for you and hopes you won't take it to heart."

  "Haha, don't worry, I'm a broad-minded person, friends should be together through thick and thin."

  Xiao Bai listened and was even happier, sticking to my feet and rubbing against them.

  Uncle bandaged my wound for me, and I asked Uncle, "The fox on the yellow charm, is it Xiaobai?"

  Uncle smiled and said that I was getting smarter, "Xiao Bai is a clever spirit, but it's also a ghost thing. Six years ago, something big happened here, many people died, but every corpse was buried the next day. It appeared on the Ridge of Bones, thinking it was a natural disaster, but later such things became more and more."

  I looked at the wound wrapped by Uncle, the technique was pretty good, "what's next?"

  Uncle sat down beside me after putting away the things, "Later, a Taoist came from the mountain. That Taoist might have been because of his poor Taoism, seeing Xiaobai inhaling corpse energy, drew a yellow talisman and suppressed Xiaobai."

  Suddenly I felt a strong dislike for that Taoist priest, "His moral integrity and conduct are not good, how can he suppress Xiao Bai?"

  Uncle said lightly, "So that Taoist priest went mad. For six years, no one has seen him again, and it's unknown whether he's dead or alive."

  It seems that this person still has retribution, Xiaobai eats not living people, sucking the dead man's corpse gas has nothing to do with him, and it also prevents the corpse from changing.

  "Even if it's a dead person, they should be buried and at peace, this is custom, respect for the deceased."

  "But..." I wanted to make excuses for Xiaobai, but Uncle's words seemed reasonable too. The deceased needs to rest in peace, and Xiaobai dug up the corpse and brought it to Shigu Ridge, which was indeed Xiaobai's fault. Looking at Xiaobai, I suddenly had nothing to say.

  Uncle patted my shoulder and stood up, "Spirits and souls, even ghosts have their own survival rules. Xiao Bai is a ghostly creature that feeds on corpse energy for a living, which is not wrong, but he dug up someone else's corpse and didn't return it, that's where he went wrong."

  I glanced at Xiaobai and he jumped onto me. I smiled softly, "Xiaobai, you're so mischievous."

  He looked back at me and I shut up.

  But Xiao Bai was suppressed at the bottom of the river and couldn't come out, what about Liu Xi Jun?
