[A Chinese Ghost Story] Grandma is hard to be

The green trees are shaded and the summer is long, and the reflection of the pavilions and terraces enters the pool.

I had a dream. I dreamed that I was climbing on the glazed roof of the Daxiong Hall of Lanruo Temple. People were coming and going in the temple, and the incense was burning.

I was warmed by the sun, so satisfied~ I decided to turn over and dry my belly.

"I've taken good care of you, why do you want to be caught and boiled bastard soup?" One hand pinched my shell, picked me up and put me in front of me, poked my head, and smiled helplessly .

ah!I'm actually a shrinking turtle!

ah!The person who caught me was an old monster!

I struggled with all four limbs to escape, but he casually threw me into a bamboo basket...

Being oppressed and falling down, there was a pain in the abdomen!

I couldn't help but uttered in a low voice: "Don't eat me!"

Abdominal pressure disappeared.

I wake up from a nightmare.

He opened his eyes suddenly, and met two pairs of eyes, one big and one small, one round and one long.

The old demon held the little wolf in one hand and looked at me with a smile. The little wolf kicked around in anger, but couldn't even touch the corner of the old demon's clothes.

I'm a little silly, I remember I was guarding Ning Caichen's gate last night, and the wolf cub came to sleep with me, um...do you think I'm a wolf mother?Never mind, it's still warm.

Why am I running to bed now?Hmm...why is there such a familiar scent on the side of the pillow?

"Is Ning Caichen alright?"

"As soon as you woke up, you asked him what he was doing?" The old demon threw the little wolf out, like throwing me in a dream... I couldn't help shrinking my neck.

Following his every move, a faint scent of crabapple similar to that in the pillow came from the air.

==Last night... did I... share the bed with him?

I took a deep breath, suppressed the tremors in my heart, and got up quickly, I didn't want to be smelled of old monsters.

The old demon handed me a few thin sheets of willow leaf paper.

I took it in doubt, and looked carefully, isn't this the wolf reptile of the little wolf?

Bird: Did you bump into anything last night?

Dai: I touched everything in the room

Bird: Did you see anything weird?

Stay: The bag doesn't include you?

Bird angry: I'm serious with you, don't joke with me!

Dumb Angry: I mean seriously

Bird: You better get out of here immediately, there are ghosts here

……

Bird: If I see you again in Lanruo Temple, I will kill you

I closed the notebook and held my forehead. The old demon actually threatened the little wolf to eavesdrop on the corner and recorded it.

I fell into deep thought, and it was really hard to imagine the scene where the little wolf was holding a brush in his paws and writing in a serious manner...

Old monster, do you dare not to be so domineering?too arrogant...

Looking up at the little wolf who was thrown away, he stared at me resentfully, no wonder he just jumped on my stomach to take revenge.By the way, where's your guts?Isn't he your enemy?Why do you listen to him, but treat me as cold as an enemy?I am very puzzled!

The old demon looked at a letter lazily with his legs crossed, and said without raising his head:

"Did I force it when you asked it, but it was just exchanged with conditions last night."

"Huh? What's the condition?" I looked suspiciously at the little wolf who turned and ran away, and asked.

"Your qualifications."

"...What the hell is that?"

It is estimated that the letter is very important. After reading it, the old demon quietly made a trick, frowned and watched as the last piece of paper was burned before standing up, and said with a smile: "Ning Caichen should have reached the end of his life by now. □Ning’s Guobei Inn is gone, why don’t you go and have a look?”

Then you just say it now? !

He blinked his eyes, looked very innocent, and said with a half smile: "You overslept yourself, why blame me instead?"

I am silent...

We walked all the way, but we didn't find Ning Caichen's shadow.

Blue flagstone long street, simple houses, empty streets.It was clearly noon, and the sun was shining brightly, but Guobei Town, which was always bustling, was exceptionally deserted.

There is no business in the Guobei Inn, the shopkeeper is dozing off with his elbows on the ledger and his chin on his chin, and A Gen, who is wearing a second cap, is also sitting lazily at the door, holding a little black dog that I don’t know when to feed, basking in the sun. sun.

The little black dog was very unfriendly to the old demon and me. He barked a few times and even alarmed several nearby shops to close their doors with a bang.The old demon waved his hand, and the little black dog ran away whimpering with its tail between its legs...

Only then did Agen see us, and hurriedly greeted us to enter the store, and by the way woke up the dozing shopkeeper.

After inquiring, I found out that Ning Caichen hadn't arrived at the inn either.

I can't help but feel a little worried.Nothing will happen to Ning Caichen, right?But now it's broad daylight, there shouldn't be any ghosts and ghosts coming out to cause trouble!Is he lost?

I was still thinking about it, but the old demon had already explained the "old rules" of the shopkeeper, and still fried the few dishes he was used to and brought them over, so he walked to the seat by the window on his own.

Seeing him behave like this, I was relieved for no reason, and I seemed to have a strange sense of trust in him.

While he wasn't paying attention, I presumed to take a urinate and ran away through the back door.

I'm going to pick up an important prop - Xiaoqian's red wedding dress.I paid a deposit for a gold ingot, but now I'm a poor, zero-dollar household, and I can only be a thief, doing the work of a gentleman.

I'll have to deal with this kind of thing by myself!

The afternoon sun is really dazzling. I am a big group sneaking around on the roofs of the adjacent street shops, and I am still a little scared. I am a thief in broad daylight, and I am so arrogant!

Tailor shop In the narrow alleys in the west of the city, there are only eight old and dilapidated shops in the narrow alleys, and all eight shops are tailor shops, well-known time-honored brands.Rich people often come here to order clothes, and there are more than a dozen carriages parked on the wide street outside.

I don't know what happened today, the doors and windows of the eight shops are all closed, and there is no popularity.I was surprised to find that there was a white lantern hanging on the gate of the shop where I ordered the wedding dress. The owner’s family was in mourning!

I jumped onto the roof and groped all the way to the warehouse. The old tailor operated with integrity, and the wedding dress was very well made. The red gauze was beautiful, the front was embroidered with gold and silver double-threaded phoenix, and the cuffs had intricate patterns of acacia and Baifu. .

After getting the red wedding dress, I gently opened the door and walked into the corridor, intending to jump up to the eaves and leave quickly, but suddenly footsteps came from the other side of the yard, I was startled, and pushed away the nearest room room, dodge in.

Peeking outside, there are two family members in filial piety and linen, followed by two white funeral utensils carrying a row of paper figurines and paper money.From the looks of it, he's a guy from a paper shop.

Seeing them approaching step by step, I hurriedly turned around and was shocked!He actually inadvertently touched into the mourning hall where the coffin was parked!I just said how gloomy this house is!

I didn't have time to think about it, so I climbed up the beam.

After the four people I saw at first came in, a figure in black also stepped in.

I was dumbfounded when I saw that person, because I not only know this person but also know him very well!

he!yes!Yan!red!Xia!

What's happening here?

I was very surprised and curious!Does the owner of the tailor shop still have friendship with a wandering swordsman like Yan Chixia?He also came to mourn?

I have no way to get out now, so I can only stick tightly to the beam of the house, not daring to take a breath, and just wait and see what happens.

The three sides of the room were covered with white cloth elegiac couplets, and the clerk in the paper shop piled up mountains of gold and silver in the coffin and left the day after tomorrow.

Yan Chixia lit three sticks of incense and bowed respectfully to the coffin three times, stepped forward and inserted it into the incense burner, then turned around and solemnly asked the current owner of the tailor shop:

"In order to catch the murderer as soon as possible, I don't know if the head of the family would mind if Yan opened the shop now to check the old man's wound?"

The middle-aged man in sackcloth and filial piety wiped his tears, nodded, and pushed the coffin away.

Perhaps one reason is that the mourning hall is located in the darkest room in the house because the weather is hot and the corpses will stink, and the other reason is the solemn and desolate atmosphere, which makes the environment even more gloomy.The house is full of ghosts, quite like Lanruo Temple.

I couldn't help rubbing my arms with goose bumps, and glanced at the stiff, pale corpse in the coffin... At that moment, my whole body felt cold, and a chill rushed straight to my forehead!

I may not be familiar with the wound next to it, but no one is more familiar with the empty hole in the old man's heart than me!Because, grandma also had the same wound, the difference is that grandma's heart was not taken away!

The person who killed grandma was the same one who recently committed a serial gouging out of hearts in Guo Beizhen!

When I came to this conclusion, my complexion turned pale in an instant, as if my soul was suddenly taken away by the face of a bull's head and horse, which was comparable to the color of the old man in the coffin.

So... Could it be... No, no, no!Not like this!

I closed my eyes and managed to calm down to listen carefully to Yan Chixia's conversation with the middle-aged man, but my mind was completely muddled.

After a while, there seemed to be the sound of a little girl crying in the adjacent room, and the voice of an old mother had been soothing her gently.

When Yan Chixia was about to leave and had already walked into the yard, she glanced at the little girl with two big black braids in the arms of the old mother who had come to the yard to bask in the sun, and stopped in her tracks.

I slid down the beams and watched carefully.

Under the sunlight, the little girl's eyes looked extremely dull and hollow, and her lips were even a little black!She was bewitched!

Yan Chixia pursed her thin lips tightly, took out a few small dark yellow talisman bags from her bosom and handed them to the middle-aged man in charge, and gave a few instructions in a low voice. To her little daughter, her eyes were full of sadness and heartbreak!

I stared at the black coffin behind me with deep eyes, and the mournful cry fell to my heart, and I was a little preoccupied.

After everyone left, I respectfully picked up three sticks of incense, pinched the syntax formula, and wanted to ignite them, but the incense burned clearly and went out instantly.Maybe it was the evil wind, so I cast the spell again, the fire was bright, and it was extinguished again!

I am amazed!Turn around and look around!The incense does not burn, the old man is unwilling to accept my condolences!He is still here!He must have become a dead ghost!Can't show up during the day!

I gritted my teeth, looked around, and asked in a calm voice, "Does the old man blame me for not paying for the goods? Don't be so stingy~"

I took out my favorite dragon bead from my pocket, it was the only thing I had left, and it was a gift from Laoying.

I respectfully put the jiaozhu in front of his tablet.

Unexpectedly, in the next second, all the incense in the incense burner was instantly extinguished, and even his memorial tablet fell down from the altar with a "snap"!The jiaozhu seemed to be picked up by someone and aimed at me!Throw it at me hard!

I was terrified!Back again and again!But he was still hit on the forehead by the ferocious jiaozhu, knocking down the black and white prayer flags on one side!

The noise made in the mourning hall alarmed the family members of the tailor shop. I didn’t dare to stay any longer, so I quickly picked up the jiaozhu and left in embarrassment as if fleeing...

The author has something to say: It's getting more and more mysterious...

Soon... Xiaohe will be close to the truth...

And then... happy ending!ha!
