During the Ming Dynasty, there was a young woman named Li Ping'er in Huai'an. She was born like a flower and was a rare beauty. Many men in the village liked her very much, but she married Hu Tiehua, a carpenter in the village. She always abides by the wife's manners and does not get close to men outside. She usually stays at home to cook housework and prepares three meals a day.
1 In the evening of the day, Li Ping'er was cooking. She added a few pieces of meat to the pot and a few pieces of firewood, but there was no fire. When the rice was about to be prepared, a rustling sound suddenly came from outside. Li Ping'er suddenly felt a sense of fear. She jumped to the water tank beside her, and from time to time she let her eyes surface to check the situation outside.
The rustling sound was made by a romantic ghost. He had two rows of sharp fangs and a green face. He often came to cause trouble for Li Ping'er and wanted to pull Li Ping'er to hell together. Li Ping'er was naturally reluctant, but he had no choice but to endure his troubles.
When all the noise outside disappeared, Li Ping'er crawled out of the water tank. She wiped the water droplets on her body and looked at the food in the pot. She found that only the meat soup was left inside, and the pieces of meat had been eaten clean by the romantic ghost. She shook her head helplessly, and recalled a past event as the sun sets down.
Five years ago, Li Ping'er was an ordinary girl and lived a carefree life. She fell in love with a man named Hu Tiehua, made a marriage with him, and married him. After the marriage, they lived a life of respect and living a very comfortable life. However, such days did not last for too long, and Hu Tiehua encountered an accident.
Hu Tiehua encountered a group of robbers on the way out to work. They not only robbed Hu Tiehua of all his money, but also killed Hu Tiehua and threw his corpse in the wilderness.
Afterwards, Li Ping'er found Hu Tiehua's body. She cried bitterly and decided to avenge Hu Tiehua. She sued the robbers to the government and successfully captured the robbers and sentenced them to death. After the revenge was avenged, Li Ping'er stayed at home and almost cut off contact with the men outside. She had been alone at home.
Later, something strange happened to Li Ping'er.
That day, she was lying on the bed to rest, feeling a chill around her neck, and she immediately got up from the bed and faced the gaze of the romantic ghost. He was pinching Li Ping'er's neck, and soon pinched Li Ping'er to faint. When she woke up again and got out of bed, she found another self on the bed.
A few days later, a villager came to her house and carried another her out, and buried her in the cemetery at the entrance of the village. Li Ping'er desperately shouted that she was really good, but the villagers seemed to be unable to hear it, and didn't even give her a look.
Li Ping'er blocked the way of his neighbor Aunt Wang, thinking that Aunt Wang had been with her for a long time, and might be able to see her. However, Aunt Wang did not stop because of her obstacles. She penetrated Li Ping'er's body and later told the neighbors that she was cold behind her back, as if there was something, but she turned around but saw nothing.
Li Ping'er fell into despair. She knelt on the ground for a long time. The romantic ghost appeared in front of her again, trying to pull Li Ping'er to hell together. Li Ping'er refused and ran away from the romantic ghost again and again. In the two years after
, Li Ping'er had been living at home. She herself didn't know that she had been strangled to death by the romantic ghost. The romantic ghost was talking about it all day long at her home. She didn't believe it, and firmly believed that she was still alive, otherwise she would have been arrested by Wuchang.
In fact, when Li Ping'er just passed away, he visited her house, but they recognized the wrong ghost and brought a girl from Li Ping'er's neighbor's house to the underworld.
The romantic ghost not only likes to hook up with Li Ping'er, but also likes to seduce other beautiful girls in the village. He is determined to find a girl to go to hell to suffer together, so that his miserable life will be easier. However, Li Ping'er escaped from him again and again. He gradually gave up Li Ping'er, stared at other girls in the village, and killed several beauties.
This incident alarmed the village chief. He invited a mage to the village, captured the romantic ghost, and handed it to Wuchang. The romantic ghost did all the evil things during his lifetime, and carried dozens of lives. Wuchang took him to the place he should go. When the romantic ghost entered hell, he did not pull a satisfactory girl, and they all ran away.
From then on, Li Ping'er has never been disturbed by romantic ghosts again, and no other ghosts have come to the village. Li Ping'er has been living in the village like this.
