The ghost story told by Ji Xiaolan.

Ji Xiaolan is famous for his rich experience, humorous temperament and erudition. His note novel Yuewei Caotang Notes was very famous at that time. There are many stories about ghosts in the book, but most of them are the themes of civilization and ambition, and some of them are worth reading:

There is a story in "The Summer Story of Luanyang": An old pedant came home after drinking in the middle of the night and met an old friend who had just died. Because the two people are very familiar and not too scared, they chatted. The deceased said that people are calm after falling asleep at night, and every word in the book will shine, which ordinary people can't see. Great writers like Confucius and Qu Yuan, whose words shine directly on the sky, can compete with the sun and the moon. The second time the light was several feet high, the third time it was several feet high and the last time it was as bright as a candle. Curious, the old pedant asked the man, "I have studied for decades and didn't know there was how bright." The deceased smiled and said, "I happened to pass by your house in the middle of the night and saw you sleeping." Once a lecture was given, with 500 to 600 ink volumes, 700 to 800 classics and 300 to 400 strategies in your chest, but somehow the words turned into black smoke and hung on the roof. I really didn't see a glimmer of light in the thick clouds! "

There is a rogue named Lv Si in the south of Cangzhou who robs houses and rapes women. One day, he took some gangsters for a walk by the river. Suddenly, the sky was overcast, and he couldn't see clearly in an instant. It was going to rain soon. At this time, Lv Si saw a woman run to a ruined temple to hide from the rain, so she had evil thoughts. They slipped into the temple and threw the woman to the ground. Some people covered their mouths and began to take off their clothes. When they undressed, a flash of lightning suddenly lit up. In the corner of the light, Lv Si couldn't help being surprised: This woman is his wife! Lu's wife cried and said, "You want to rape someone else's wife, but someone else raped your wife. What a retribution! "

Lv Si hurried to find clothes for his wife, but the clothes had been blown away by the strong wind. But he had to sneak home with his naked wife on his back in the dark. Unexpectedly, as soon as I entered the village, the sky suddenly cleared up and it was bright all around! At the sight of the couple, the whole village burst into laughter. People gathered around to ask what had happened. Lu Si was speechless, leaving his wife behind, and ran to the river to dive.

Liu's bookstore in Cangzhou Xiaolian was occupied by Fox Fairy. When he went to study, Fox Fairy talked to him. If he ignores it, the fox spirit will throw a small stone at him. When Dong Siren, the magistrate, heard about it, he volunteered to exorcise ghosts. Dong Siren is a good official who loves the people and is not greedy for money. When he got to the study, he told Fox Fairy a lot of benevolence and righteousness. Fox fairy refused at first, and then said slowly, "Stop it, everyone knows." Because you are a good official, I didn't play tricks on you, but you should know in your heart that I also know that you love the people because you want a good reputation in your heart; Not greedy for money and afraid of exposure! So I won't listen to you. " Everyone was bored and left in pain. At this time, one of Liu's maids couldn't stand it anymore, so she came to scold him. Fox Fairy whispered, "Although you are ugly, you are a hardworking and capable person, who respects the elderly and is loyal to the family. Now that you have said it, I am leaving! " Say that finish into a white light, flew away.

According to legend, a private school teacher led his disciples to the edge of Confucius Temple to enjoy the cool and chat on a bright summer night. This gentleman is talking about 300 poems, with a loud voice like a bell and drum. Let the students read it and say it again. At some point, I looked up and saw someone vaguely under the Cooper at the entrance of the Confucius Temple, knowing that it must be a ghost. Thinking that there should be no evil spirits in front of the Confucius Temple, I ventured to ask its name and replied, "I am Yan Hui". The teacher was overjoyed and asked him why he came out to meet each other. Yan * * * replied: "It's for the old gentleman!" Mr. Wang was even happier and said, "Thank you for your esteem." Yan Hui said, "Sir, there is a mistake! My teacher told me to see who was outside, which was like a drunk talking nonsense. Still arguing here for so long, go and drive them away! "

There is a vendor named Li in Shucheng who sells dates between nearby counties. And then secretly kidnapped the innkeeper's wife back. By the time he got home, his wife had eloped with someone else. The man was pleasantly surprised.

He said, "It's a good thing I brought a wife back, otherwise I would have been a bachelor!" " Later, when asked, the date when his wife fled was actually the day when he abducted the man and ran back.

After a while, this * * * got tired of his ordinary life and secretly eloped with a romantic teenager. Just when the stall owner was at a loss, the innkeeper also chased Shucheng and accused him of kidnapping. At that time, * * * was long gone, and Li refused to admit it because there was no evidence. When they were arguing, an old man came out to mediate and told them that a bodhisattva is very effective, so we might as well ask the gods to judge who is right and who is wrong. When they hear this, they face God. When we arrived at the statue of Bodhisattva, a page suddenly fell from the sky, which read: "Draw a gourd clearly according to the pattern". The innkeeper saw it and left silently. Someone at the junction of the two counties knew about it and explained, "The gods know. In fact, that * * * was lured by the innkeeper to elope with him from the beginning. "

There is an old lady named Quan, who is Ji Xiaolan's younger brother's wet nurse. She told a story. She has a daughter named Li Jie who married a family in a nearby village. One day, the old lady was ill. Sister Li heard that it was too late to wait for her husband to come back to visit, so she hurried over. At that time, it was a night, and the moonlight was dim. When I was walking, I saw someone chasing me behind me, and I thought it must be malicious. At that time, I was walking to a deserted place, thinking about it. I squatted under an ancient tomb on the side of the road, tied my shawl around my neck, my long hair was fluttering, and I stuck my tongue out and stared at my eyes. When the man approached, beckoned him to come and sit down. The man came closer and threw himself on the floor in fear. Sister Li took the opportunity of running all the way and ran to her family. The family was shocked to see her, but they couldn't help laughing and cursing when they learned the situation.
