The ghost hooked

Obviously being regarded as a liar again, Xue Xiujie took out the copper coin and showed him again.

The head of the village continued: "The thing is like this. After a month, the people in the village are all emaciated, and the food they eat seems to have not entered their stomachs. I live alone, and I can only insist on going to the field once a day. I can do it. Have a meal."

Xue Xiujie said: "Minister, I am a doctor, let me take your pulse!"

The chief's eyes flickered for a moment, and he said, "I just had my pulse a few days ago, and now I'm going to call again?"

"I didn't read it a few days ago," Xue Xiujie said strangely: "I don't know the result of other people's pulse, so naturally I have to do it myself again."

Hearing this, the Li Chang stretched out his hand from the quilt tremblingly. It was not cold in the room. Seeing that his head was sweating, Xue Xiujie clasped his fingers on his wrist and said, "The weather is so warm, it's not easy without a quilt." , you are not young anymore, don't get bored."

"I'm used to it. It's cold at night and I don't have much strength. This will be covered, so I don't need to move at night." Li Chang said.

He didn't even have the strength to cover the quilt, so he looked really weak.

Xue Xiujie's pulse became more and more confused, and finally his brows were almost knotted. He looked at the few people on the side and said, "The pulse is beating strongly, and it seems to be very healthy, which is far from the physical state."

Consistent with the previous doctor's judgment, the chief's illness was indeed abnormal, and everyone was a little more convinced of the evil ghost's curse.

Although there are many thatched cottages in the village, there are not many people. Mowu and Xiaobao live in two families, while Xue Xiujie and Qin Huai live in the family behind.

Wuying didn't occupy the bed, and stayed behind to protect Wu Wu, while Xue Wen and Xue Wu followed Xue Xiujie.

Xiao Bao hugged Zhang San and sat beside the bed, not knowing what to say.He didn't know when he started to feel awkward when he was with enlightenment.

Finally Wu Wu opened his mouth and said: "It's past lunch time, what do you want to eat, I'll ask Xue Wen and Xue Wu to do it."

Xiaobao, who has never been picky about food, said: "I can eat anything."

Realization: "..."

It was Xue Xiujie's arrival that broke the terrifying silence. He looked at the two people in the house and said, "Monk, Xiaobao, let's have a bite for lunch. I brought some dry food."

Entering the house, Xue Xiujie put the food on the table, handed a small cloth bag to Xiaobao, and said in a low voice: "I deliberately threw Qin Huai away, it seems that this time I need to rely on Xiaobao. He said to Xiaobao: "Xiaobao, go out at night to see if there are any ghosts in the village."

Xiao Bao nodded, and opened the small cloth bag. Inside were a few small pancakes, which looked delightful. He picked up one and was about to stuff it into his mouth. Xue Xiujie quickly grabbed his arm.

Xue Xiujie said: "It's not for you. After dinner, you take the pancakes to find the children in the village and ask about them."

Putting down the pancakes wearily, Xiao Bao asked, "What are you asking?"

Wu Wu continued: "Inquire about the affairs of the village to see if it is true what the village chief said. After all, adults and children can lie."

Having learned the lesson from Nancun last time, even the few people who are aware of these seemingly simple villagers can't believe it completely.

Little Treasure nodded, and was a little puzzled again, asking: "Enlightenment, will you lie?"

Not before I met you, I have already broken the precept after I met you.

Wu Wu looked at Xiao Bao, and for a moment didn't know how to get the words out.

Xue Xiujie on the side looked at the two of them, wondering why they seemed to have something to say, he frowned and said, "Xiaobao, hurry up and eat, there are a lot of mosquitoes in this village, let's finish our work and leave early."

After the meal, Xiao Bao carried small pancakes in his arms and went out full of fighting spirit with Zhang San who was forced to tie a bun.

Xue Xiujie looked at it and said: "Monk, you and Xiaobao have been acting strange these few days, what's the matter?"

"It's getting late, take someone to see a doctor for the villagers!" Wu Wu said, obviously avoiding answering.

Xue Xiujie sighed, with a sense of vicissitudes of "nephew can't help uncle".

After sending Xue Xiujie away, I thought I could quietly think about his and Xiaobao's affairs, but who knows, Qin Huai came again in less than a cup of tea.

Although Qin Huai is a scholar, he has traveled abroad for many years, so he doesn't have much bookishness, instead he has a bit of a market atmosphere.

He said: "Master Wu Wu, hey! They are all busy, only I have nothing to do, so I came to chat with you."

I have nothing to do, and I also have a leisurely realization: "..."

Qin Huai is an acquaintance, Wu Wu didn't answer, but he could still continue talking on his own, he said: "Master Wu Wu, can you believe that there are ghosts in this world?"

Wu Wu frowned slightly, there are indeed ghosts in the world, and there is only one living in the umbrella in this room, but he can't tell others, he said: "Buddhism pays attention to the six realms of reincarnation, so naturally they believe in ghosts."

"That's right, I just don't know what a ghost looks like." Qin Huai said.

"There is a wall in the White Horse Temple with pictures of evil spirits painted on it. If Lord Qin is interested, you can go and have a look." Lu Wu said.

Qin Huai saw that he didn't reveal anything in his answer, and asked again: "Is there any way to exorcise ghosts if it's not Buddhism?"

"Ghosts also have their own fate..." Before Wu Wu finished explaining the Buddhist understanding of ghosts, Xiao Bao came back angrily holding the little white dog.

When he entered the room, he didn't speak, just sat on the bed with Zhang San in his arms, twisted his body, and didn't look at anyone.

Wu Wu wondered, "Xiaobao, what's wrong with you?"

Xiao Bao looked at the two of them, and said angrily, "They took the pancakes and ran away, and they didn't play with me!"

The scenario Xue Xiujie imagined is as follows:

Xiaobao took the pancakes and asked the children in the village, "Can you tell me about the things in the village? Whoever tells me, I will give them pancakes." Then the children spoke up enthusiastically, sharing various The information told Xiaobao that Xiaobao successfully completed the task.

In fact, the scene Xiaobao encountered was indeed like this:

Xiao Bao held Zhang San in his arms, rushed over when he saw the child, stuffed the pancake into the child's hand, and said, "Here for you!" The child stuffed the pancake into his mouth, turned and ran away after looking at Xiao Bao , only one person and one dog stunned.mission failed.

After listening to Xiaobao's narration, Qin Huai said: "The children in the village are all introverted, which is normal, but most of them are also very simple and will try their best to repay you."

These words successfully comforted Xiao Bao, and he asked, "Will they remember me?"

Qin Huai nodded affirmatively.

Now Xiaobao and Qin Huai had a very happy conversation. Qin Huai was well-informed and familiar with the local customs and customs of various places. When Xiaobao listened to him talking about things in various places, he opened his mouth in surprise for a while, and widened his eyes for a while. , and occasionally nodded his head, obviously very happy to listen.

There is no difference between Zhang San and Xiaobao in listening to stories, just like listening to storytelling in Zhangcun, the interest is high.

In this way, it seems superfluous. In fact, he has read a lot of books since he was a child, and he also knows the customs and customs of various places, and he can tell many stories, but he has never told Xiaobao.

Staring at Xiaobao who had regained his vivacity, Wu Wu felt very blocked in his heart, as if he had lost it before it even started, and felt uncomfortable.

When Xue Xiujie came back in the evening, the news he brought back was not optimistic. The situation of the villagers was similar to that of the village head, and they all agreed.In other words, nothing was discovered.

Qin Huai said: "No discovery is the biggest discovery. If it's not true, then everyone in the village is lying."

Xue Xiujie looked at Xiaobao and said, "How about you?"

Xiao Bao glanced to one side and said, "I didn't find it."

"Huh? Then what did they say?" Xue Xiujie asked again.

"No, I didn't say anything." Xiaobao said.

Judging from how we got along these days, Xiaobao will not lie, Xue Xiujie suppressed his anger, narrowed his eyes and said, "Did you mess things up?"

Seeing that he was about to embarrass Xiaobao, Wu Wu quickly helped to excuse him. He grabbed Xue Xiujie's arm and said, "Xiaobao is still young, so don't be so cruel to him."

"That's right, that's right, although they didn't ask today, maybe tomorrow they will repay their kindness and tell me the truth!" Xiaobao hurriedly defended himself.

Seeing Xiaobao's "although I was wrong, but God will take care of me", Xue Xiujie turned his head and glared at Wuwu beside him, you are used to it.

At the same time, Xue Xiujie also reflected on it. Sure enough, Xue Baichuan and Wu Wu became talented because of the sternness of the eldest princess, not because of his brother Xue Xiurui's pampering. He should have a better attitude towards his sister-in-law in the future.

In order to make up for the mistake in the afternoon, Xiaobao took Zhang San and the coward out as soon as it got dark at night.

He bravely stepped on the roads in the village one by one, and even ordered the coward to sneak to every house to have a look and see what he found, but unfortunately everything was normal.

The sick adults were lying on the bed, some of the children were doing housework, and some went to bed early, nothing unusual.

When everyone heard the result, they were also very surprised. If there were no ghosts in the village, why would the villagers get strange diseases?

Qin Huai said: "The people who left before have never heard of this strange disease. It is obvious that only people in the village have this disease."

"How about the people who left, we can't be sure at this time, we have to live here for a few days before we can know." Lu Wu said.

The rest of the people nodded. If they were fine here for a few days, it would be more likely that the ghosts would cast a curse.Nothing was found that day, so everyone decided to leave.

Xue Xiujie and Qin Huai went out one after the other, and went to spread the bedding when they realized it. The servant was not around, so he had to do everything by himself.

It's just that I don't know about it, Qin Huai turned back when he bent down, grabbed Xiaobao's arm and asked by ear, "What did you do just now?"

Xiaobao also cooperated and whispered: "Look for ghosts!"

"Can you see ghosts?" Qin Huai asked again.

Before Xiaobao could nod his head, Wuying on the beam flew down, picked up Xiaobao's back collar, pulled him aside, and said, "It's time to wash and go to sleep."

Qin Huai looked at Wuying with big eyes, and said in surprise: "You are actually inside the house, and you are very light-hearted!"

Only then did he see Qin Huai, he said: "It's getting late, Mr. Qin should go back to sleep earlier!"

Qin Huai nodded and said, "Let's go back now."

After hearing the sound of his footsteps fading away, Wu Ying and Wu Wu looked at each other and shook their heads.
