Hundred Ghosts

The sweet potato tasted sweet and soft, as if it could melt in the mouth throughout the winter. After Lin Zi ate the sweet potato, he washed up and went to rest. After staying up all night, he was so tired that he closed his eyes and fell asleep.

When I opened my eyes, it was noon on the second day, the sky was gray, and large snowflakes were falling from the mist, even in the room, I could feel a bit of chill.

"Master, there's a lot of snow outside!" Xiaocai shook the snow off his clothes, and couldn't hide his excitement in his tone.

"You just went to play in the snow?"

"Yeah! General, he built a big snowman!" Xiaocai gestured, "Master, do you want to go over and have a look?"

"Okay!" Lin Zi put on his clothes, the snowman was almost piled up, and several senior brothers were helping to shovel the snow.

"Brother, you're awake!"

"Why are you so free?" Lin Zi laughed.

"It's snowing too much today, and there are no pilgrims coming. Master said that we have all been miserable recently, and we are on vacation!"

"Lin Zi, do you think the snowman is big?" He Huai patted the snowman's head with a smile.

"Big is big... But it would be great if it wasn't piled up right at the door..." Lin Zi sighed, these guys don't care about things, and this time they have to go around the door.

Several people touched their noses and smiled awkwardly.

"Forget it, remember to pile it up nicely... What else can I do, let you dismantle it?"

"Thank you, brother!"

He Huai said triumphantly, "Look, what I said is right, your senior brothers have softened their hearts, and I will definitely not blame you..."

Lin Zi glanced at his mouth, is this guy the one who started it?

Lin Zi was not a lively person, but he just told them not to get cold hands before going into the house. He was naturally afraid of the cold, so he might as well go in and read a book to warm himself up by the fire instead of making a snowman outside.

But He Huai grabbed the corner of his clothes, "Hey, don't go, let's play together."

He breathed out, "Cold."

"You're afraid of the cold because you've been roasted too much. Look at me, you never call it cold." He Huai made up his mind to let him stay and play in the snow together.

"Okay, okay..." Lin Zi compromised, rubbing his hands together and said, "Then you guys continue, I'll watch."

"Brother is too perfunctory." The brothers also want him to help.

But Lin Zi really didn't want to touch the cold snow, so he said, "You guys pile it up, I'll show you something fun later."

"Brother, tell me what's so fun?"

"We'll talk after we've piled it up."

"..."

Everyone quickly pressed the snowman's body firmly, and Xiaocai used a carrot as a nose and two dried chestnuts as eyes. He looked decent, but a bit ugly.

"Okay?"

"All right, all right!" Everyone looked at him in unison.

"Brother, what's the fun?"

He Huai smiled, "I seem to know."

Lin Zi walked up to the Snowman, pulled out a Zhang Fulu from his cuff, clamped it with two fingers together, and walked in front of the Snowman.

The talisman burned out without fire, but the snowman moved.

"Wow! Brother is so amazing!" All the brothers were amazed and ran to the snowman to watch.

He Huai laughed out loud, "You are really messing around! How dare you lend your anger to the Snowman!"

"You guys are full of energy, it's okay to be a little angry." Lin Zi blinked and said, "It will return to normal after a while."

Although the snowman can move, he can't leave the original place. He can only do some simple actions, such as patting its head, and the hands made of its two branches can hold the head, and wave their hands away, round and round. It looks really cute.

Lin Zi knelt down and pinched another snow-white rabbit. The little rabbit was no bigger than a palm, so cute, it could jump up and down in the palm of your hand, and it immediately attracted Xiaocai.

"Master is amazing! Can you give this to me?" Xiaocai looked at Little Snow Rabbit eagerly.

Lin Zi gave it to him, but the child's body was too hot and his hands were hot, and the snow rabbit melted in a while.

Seeing Xiaocai's dejected face, Lin Zi comforted him, "You study hard, I will teach you in the future, and you can have whatever you want in Xuexue!"

"Thank you Master!"

After playing for more than an hour, the fat uncle came over and called them to eat. There was a round three-colored cat squatting on his shoulder, which looked familiar. Lin Zi thought carefully, wasn't it the one he brought back?I remember that it came back once later, and then I haven’t seen it for a long time. I thought that the wild cat was not familiar with it, so I left, but I didn’t expect to go to eat and drink with my uncle!

Lin Zi hugged it and weighed it, good guy, it was extremely heavy, it seems that it has accumulated a lot of fat in the cold weather!

It struggled to get up from Lin Zi's embrace, and ran in front of the snowman, crushing it with a thousand pieces of gold... The head of the snowman who was still shaking slightly was broken by hitting the top!

There was a moment of silence at the scene. The headless snowman Kong touched the nearby field, and the hands of the dead branches were also broken. It looked a little scary and a little pitiful.

"Stay away from it." Lin Zi told everyone to disperse. After a while, the snowman stopped moving, and the snowman's head that fell on the ground collapsed into pieces of snow.

"Why don't you guys eat first and make another one in the afternoon?" Lin Zi suggested cautiously.

"Senior brother wants to help together!" The younger brother said with a smile.

"Okay." Lin Zi agreed, and then turned to the uncle, "Do you want to play with the uncle?"

Fat Master Shu glanced lazily at him, then slowly shook his head, "No, I have sweet potatoes to roast."

I really want to bake sweet potatoes with my uncle... Lin Zi licked his lips.

But when he was playing crazy in the afternoon, he forgot about it again.

He could also make a snowman, but Lin Zi was angered by their intentional behavior of not coming to help just by looking at them, so he used a little trick to make each of them hold a handful of snow on their faces. With a sharp smile, he grabbed Xue and smashed Lin Zi, and then threw each other in the face, without any regard for the feelings of the brothers.

Lin Zi silently remembered the people who smashed him, thinking that tomorrow he would punish them for reciting talismans...

That's right, it is to use the power from the senior brother to suppress them...

"Hey, Lin Zi, why are you in a daze?" He Huai ran over, and caught off guard and pressed his snow-covered hand to Lin Zi's face. Lin Zi was so cold that he jumped back, grabbed a handful of snow and put it on his collar. stuffed inside.

Xiaocai made a snowball for his master and threw it over.

"Ouch..."

Then suddenly a strange man's voice came from the snow.

Everyone's movements froze, and saw that the visitor crawled out from the snow, with a sour bookishness in his every move, he patted the snowflakes on himself leisurely, strode up to Lin Zi and knelt down, " Daoist! I beg my wife!"

It was the man who approached Lin Zi yesterday to ask him about the sex in his wife's belly.

Lin Zi quickly helped him up, "Sir, get up quickly, what's wrong with your lady?"

"My wife gave birth this morning, and she hasn't been born yet."

Lin Zi felt a little uncomfortable. Your wife is about to give birth and you have been with her all the time. Did you still have the mind to ask the baby's gender yesterday?

Now that your wife is having a difficult labor, instead of going to the best doctor in the capital, why are you looking for yourself instead?

"But Pindao is a Taoist priest, he only exorcises ghosts, he doesn't deliver babies... Mister, it's better to find a good doctor for your wife to see."

Dystocia has something to do with the physical fitness of the mother and the child. It is definitely more useful to find a doctor than a Taoist priest.

Unless you encounter a ghost.

"But the midwife said that my wife is in good health, and she could have given birth, but she was targeted by the ghost of childbirth, and it was useless to find a doctor. I must go back to you Taoist priests to drive out the ghost!" He said anxiously.

If you really encountered a childbirth ghost, then you really have to take a look, Lin Zi said immediately, "The poor Taoist will come with you to have a look first."

"I'll go with you too." He Huai walked up to Lin Zi and said.

"Master, I will go too!"

"The place where women give birth is not good for men. It is enough for me to go alone. You all stay here honestly."

"Okay then, the mountain road is slippery, master be careful!"

"Okay... Mister, lead the way." Human life was at stake, and Lin Zi left the two of them behind before he had time to give instructions, and hurried down the mountain with the man alone.

His house is really not close to the Taoist temple, he walked non-stop for more than an hour before he arrived, Lin Zi's legs, who were not very active, were weak!

His house is located in a small yard on the corner of a street. Pots of blood were brought out, and the yard was filled with the smell of blood. The mother's voice sounded very tired, but the midwife was still making her exert herself.

Lin Zi looked around, but there was only a midwife, but no doctor.Even if Lin Zi didn't understand this, he knew that it was time to call a doctor to look at it, so that it would be convenient to treat the mother in case of excessive bleeding.

"Why didn't you ask the doctor to come here, sir?"

He lowered his head in shame, and said in a low voice, "Xiaosheng is too shy to hire a doctor, but my wife is in good health and there will be no problems... The Taoist chief should help to see if there is anything unusual around here."

"You!" Lin Zi didn't know what to say, he went down the mountain in a hurry and didn't bring any money, "Go and borrow some money, you smell the blood, your wife can't hold it no matter how healthy she is, I'd better ask a doctor to give it to you." Take a look, lady!"

"Okay, I will invite her when she is born!"

Lin Zi was so angry that he couldn't speak, he just felt that his appearance was really hateful, he could do whatever he liked, he should do his own business first.

Lin Zi walked around the area, but did not find the birth ghost.

Childbirth ghosts are relatively common and common ghosts, which are transformed from women who died of dystocia.Birth ghosts will entangle living pregnant women and hinder their delivery.Sometimes pregnant women have dystocia, so it is common to ask Taoist priests to guard them near the house. Firstly, they can drive away the ghosts of childbirth. If the mother dies, they can directly sing mourning and send them out, so as not to become ghosts of childbirth again.

Lin Zi turned around again, but there was still no trace of the ghost. The women in the ghost world looked almost the same, the only difference was that there was a red line called "blood bait" in the throat of the ghost, and the ghost usually relied on this red line After entering the pregnant woman's abdomen, this blood bait is then connected to the fetus, so that the pregnant woman cannot give birth.Then, the birth ghost will pull the blood bait hard to cause severe pain in the pregnant woman's abdomen. No matter how strong the woman is, as long as she is pulled hard a few times, she will undoubtedly die.

Impossible, Lin Zi scratched her head, the midwife said that the physical fitness of the parturient is good, unless the ghosts are causing trouble, she shouldn't be in such pain.
