During the discussion, Wang Pengpai noticed that Xu Chen was in deep thought.

“I’m thinking that all of us got one round-trip ticket each, that is, we can only go back and forth from Mourning Stream once.”

Xu Chen rationalized his thoughts, “For example, Leader Miao and Hou Feihu brought two ghost babies, and Wang Pengpai and I sent two babies over. This is the first round trip.”

“Then Lin Xi and Shi Tao brought two ghost babies. Zhao Hongtu and Yu Hean sent two babies over. This is the second round trip.”

“In this case, after the two round trips, the position of the people on both sides will be exchanged, and the position of the ghost babies and babies will also be exchanged, and the ship will be on the other side of the Cordoned-off Village. For the last voyage, as long as the four of us board the boat and return here, that will be all.”

“So, we have four round trips. Leader Miao and the others also have four round trips. There is enough time, and the number of round trips is sufficient.”

“Yes, that’s it.”

Zhao Hongtu naturally nodded, “What’s the problem? Do you think that the other side of the bank is the side we should be on? Do we have to go to the other side?”

“Let’s see where the ghost babies on Leader Miao’s side wind up going, but I think this side should be the endpoint.”

Xu Chen adjusted his glasses, “That is to say, in the end, our tour group and the ghost babies have to come back here.”

“Then we’ll just follow suit with what you said.”

Zhao Hongtu was curious, “What are you worried about?”

“Xu Chen is right.”

Wang Pengpai suddenly sighed and looked terrible, “This is really a problem.”

“Why exactly are you guys talking in riddles??”

Zhao Hongtu said discontentedly, “Can’t you please speak properly? I don’t understand what…...”

“Xu, Younger Brother Xu.”

At this time, Yu Hean’s uneasy voice rang out. The simple and honest man was uncomfortable. He pursed his mouth and asked carefully, “You, how did you forget Huihui when you counted the number of tourists?”

Zhao Hongtu was instantly dumbfounded. Wang Pengpai and Xu Chen looked at each other. Their eyes were full of helplessness.

“This is the key to the problem.”

.

“There are four people and four babies opposite us. Here, there are five people and five ghost babies.”

Miao Fangfei frowned, and the drawing on the ground was already messed up.

“The ghost babies must go to the other side, and our tour group must be together. So, for example, our tour group and the ghost babies have to go to the other side as our final destination and comply with the ferry rules said by Guide III.”

“In the first round, Shi Tao and I will sent two ghost babies there, and Wang Pengpai and Xu Chen will bring the babies over here.”

“In this case, two ghost babies and two babies will be exchanged on each side. However, there are three ghost babies, two babies and the boat will be here.”

“The number of ghost babies and babies has to be the same, so in the second round, Lin Xi will send the ghost baby there alone, and Yu Hean and Zhao Hongtu will bring the babies on our side.”

“In this way, there will be three ghost babies on the other side. There will be two ghost babies and three babies here in Cordoned-off Village.”

“Then in the third round, Hou Feihu and Yu Hehui will take the ghost baby on the other side. By this point, the two sides will be completely exchanged. The ship will be on the ghost baby’s side.”

Miao Fangfei’s voice was low when she said this, as if she was making a difficult decision. Hou Feihu and the others frowned grimly,  and no one’s breathing could be heard.

“Someone has to drive the boat and pick up Zhao Hongtu and the others.”

Miao Fangfei took a deep breath, “But each person’s ticket is only one round trip.”

The one who brought the boat to this side would have run out of round trips.

That person wouldn’t be able to come back.

“There must be another way, there has to be.”

Shi Tao clenched his teeth and took a branch to write and draw on the ground, “There shouldn’t be a dead end.”

“Yes, there shouldn’t be a dead end.”Miao Fangfei said, frustratedly. She grudgingly felt that if Yu Hehui did not exist, the eight of them would not die. Everything would be in order.

However, the crux was that there was one more person. The most important thing was that Yu Hehui possessed the most valuable ghost baby.

He must head to the other side of the shore, but they couldn’t abandon him.

“An adult can only take one ghost baby. This restriction is too strict.”

If a person could take two or three ghost babies, the restriction would be more flexible, but——

Of all the solutions they came up with, they needed one person who could make more than one round trip, and this was why it was a dead end.

“Will Brother 9 get on board?”

Lin Xi suddenly said, “If Brother 9 gets on board, the situation will be different.”

After listening to his words, Miao Fangfei and others looked at each other. Then Miao Fangfei shook her head and sighed.

“Yes, but this possibility is very low. Guide III can shuttle between the two sides of the shore. Why does he need to take the ferry?”

“Moreover, the tour guides can’t participate in the tourists’ attraction, let alone help the tourists. Guide III, he, sigh.”

This method may not work, and the possibility was very low. But Miao Fangfei and others really couldn’t think of any other way.

“Maybe Wang Pengpai’s side will have new ideas.”

Shi Tao cheered up and said optimistically, “After all, we have no communication with the other side, and we don’t know what the situation is like across the river. Who knows, there may be a way when we reach the foot of mountain.”

“It’s five fifty already, we only have ten minutes left.”

Miao Fangfei also raised her spirits, “Let’s go through what we want to bring again and review the rules. Don’t overlook anything.”

Wei Xun, who was being discussed by the tourists, was standing on the bank of Mourning Stream, overlooking Cordoned-off Village.

The fiery and crimson resentment of Cordoned-off Village engulfed the sky, stronger than the resentment of Little Dragon Farmstead. The density of resentment was frightening and unnerving.

The resentment of Little Dragon Farmstead had enveloped Wuluo Mountain, trapping the rotten villagers and the corpse driving team. The resentment on Cordoned-off Village had trapped even more humans and other living things.

Wei Xun narrowed his eyes and saw the fiery and filthy resentment soaring into the sky. It was very thick and acted as a shackle, gathering all over Cordoned-off Village. A dark and red terrorizing figure could be vaguely seen where the resentment intersected. Wei Xun silently stared at her, his mind whirring. His body felt weak, and chills crept up and down his spine. He could tell how powerful the other party was.

The figure just glanced at Wei Xun from the corner of her eyes, but most of her attention was focused on Yu Hehui.

Or rather, the ghost baby held by Yu Hehui in his arms.

“Only by sending the ghost babies to Mourning Stream would the ghost babies be able to break the curse and reincarnate, right, Pingping?”

Wei Xun bitterly stated, “Children, on the other hand, would never want to leave their mothers. You’ve sent the ghost baby away, but you’re still here. Isn’t it too cruel?”

“The child can’t find you. What if he cries? Pingping, you should come down and send him off.”

Finally, he saw Pingping again, but she was standing too high, and Wei Xun’s wings didn’t grow out. He could only look at Pingping and sigh.

He wanted to lure her down. But Pingping was really ungrateful.

“Who is Yu Hehui? A wild ghost you found? No, Yu Hean should really have a younger brother, right?”

Wei Xun said to himself, “His brother also joined a tour group, and he died on a tour? When you saw Yu Hean’s memories, did you shape an imaginary brother in his memories and stuff him into the tour group?”

“No, you’ve possessed Miao Fangfei before. Are you so bored that you created Yu Hehui and put him among the tourists again? Or do you like to have another layer of insurance?”

“You wanted to give the baby to Miao Fangfei. Why did you give it to Yu Hehui? Let me think, let me think……”

“Did you know that the zombified flying fox king will come to rob the children during the reincarnation ferry?”

“You shouldn’t meddle too much in the second scenic spot before it is time for you to appear. Are you worried that these tourists can’t beat the zombified flying fox king and protect your child?”

“If the tourists can’t protect the ghost baby, at most, an attraction in the second scenic spot will fail, and the completion degree will be low, but your child will be gone.”

Without anyone’s awareness, the shadowy figure bound by resentment and curses had been staring indifferently at Wei Xun from above the Cordoned-off Village. The bloodthirsty resentment swelled, but Wei Xun just sneezed twice, and his eyes glowed.

He gave Pingping face and lowered his voice, but his hoarse voice was more like a devil who could see through people’s hearts, “So you created Yu Hehui and asked him to protect your child, right?”

“Let me guess, let me guess what Yu Hehui is.”

Wei Xun was more and more elated. He flexed his fingers one by one and whispered, “Yu Hehui is very strong. You believe he can protect the ghost baby even with the threat of the zombified flying fox king. The zombified flying fox king’s strength is not weak. For the time being, let’s hypothesize that Yu Hehui is a spiteful ghost like you.”

“Since he’s a spiteful ghost, Yu Hehui is already dead. When you were snatched away by Wu Laoliu and fought him, Yu Hehui also disappeared. When you returned, he also reappeared. That is to say, he is attached to you, isn’t he?”

“Yu Hehui and Yu Hean’s affections do not appear to be made up. Of course, it’s possible that he’s good at disguising himself. But he doesn’t need to hide himself. After all, the combined strength of Miao Fangfei and the others is insufficient to deal with Yu Hehui. Even if they doubt him, they won’t be able to get rid of him easily. I’m not the kind to be inquisitive. Since disguise isn’t necessary, he’s more likely to be the “real” Yu Hehui, right?”

“It was a fox who wanted to eat the baby when drawing the peach-wood talisman. It was also a fox who washed the ghost baby during the washing on the third day custom. In fact, you don’t like foxes. It should be Yu Hehui’s favorite. When he was a child, Yu Hehui was favored by Third Grandmother Hu. He has a bright future. It’s natural that he can control the foxes. ”

“Yu Hean was only hiding in the cowhide when drawing the peach-wood talisman. The fox scratched around the room, but surprisingly, it didn’t hurt Yu Hean at all. Of course, Yu Hehui didn’t want his brother to get hurt. Yu Hehui can appear on the tour and communicate with you anytime. It is most likely that he has died on another tour. To sum up——”

Wei Xun clenched his fist in his left hand, tapped the palm of his right hand, slightly tilted the corners of his mouth, and said with a smile, “Yu Hehui was a tourist who died on a tour, but because of his outstanding talent, he was used by the Travel Services as a BOSS similar to you. Maybe he was also one of the BOSSes of the Intoxicating Xiangxi tours, so he could get to know you.”

“So I think……will there be two tours to Intoxicating Xiangxi, ongoing at the same time?”

The menacing glint in Wei Xun’s eyes intensified. He ignored Pingping’s venomous glare. The more he spoke, the more enthusiastic he grew, and his eyes glittered.

“Yu Hehui is very special. He has his memories. He wanted to see his brother. You hired him to guard the ghost baby. So the both of you came to an agreement, right? In fact, I’m curious. Can the BOSS of another tour come to our tour? Running around on different tours will not work. If you suddenly go elsewhere, it’s not normal, is it?”

“Yu Hehui first appeared when he was taking photos at Little Dragon Farmstead, but his sense of existence was always very low. He didn’t come to light until we passed the Ferocious Bone Plank Road. Yu Hehui has been present since then. His regular appearances indicate that he was no longer required there, therefore Yu Hehui either died or was killed by the tour group on that tour.”

“Say, am I right, Pingping?”

Wei Xun muttered the last sentence with difficulty because the terrifying killing intent spilled out, and the spiteful ghost’s killing intent engulfed him fully. This kind of excitement made Wei Xun smile happily, and his whole body trembled slightly with the excitement brought by the life and death crisis.

Look, even if Pingping was still floating on the sky, he could get the stimulation he wanted.

Wei Xun enjoyed escalating her killing intent, but he couldn’t go too far. Fully irritating Pingping at once was contrary to his idea of sustainable development.

After all, in this tour, only Pingping could bring him such excitement.

“But you didn’t think of it, right, Pingping? I killed the zombified flying fox king!”

Wei Xun said with a smile, “Your child is safe.”

As soon as this sentence came out, the towering evil ghost’s killing intent halted, and it soon it converged. Wei Xun breathed a sigh of relief and his heart itched again. He looked at the blood shadow of Pingping on the top of the chains of resentment and continued to tease her like a bad-hearted cat pushing a bottle:

“Pingping, at what price did you invite Yu Hehui here? I want to say that Yu Hehui didn’t do anything much and met his brother for nothing. You should give me the rewards instead. Those who are capable should be rewarded. Am I right, huh?”

“I also gave your child two balls to play with. It’s all my hard-earned points.”

But no matter how much Wei Xun teased her, Pingping ignored him. Seeing that it was six o’clock, Wei Xun sighed and said, “The great spiteful ghost will never default on her debts, right, right?”

He walked to the bank of Mourning Stream and saw Miao Fangfei and Shi Tao  board the ferry with two ghost babies, looking nervous and grim. At the same time, the lively sound of gongs and drums beating and a pleasant bamboo flute could be faintly heard in the direction of the Cordoned-off Village.

The beating three dynasties banquet and the reincarnation ferry attraction had begun.
