Be a national teacher in Liaozhai Fanwen

Ruan Tao's words were like a thunderbolt on the ground, and everyone sitting there was speechless for a moment.

Mrs. He stood up tremblingly, her eyes were red, she grabbed Ruan Tao's hand and pulled it tightly: "Sir! What did you just say?"

Seeing this, Ruan Tao regretted that he shouldn't have said it so suddenly. Mrs. He is getting old, and this kind of news may be unbearable, but... If Mrs. He does not know about this matter, it may be hard for someone to do it. She calls the shots.

He turned his head to look at Miss Gu who was lying on the bed sadly and speechlessly, and then his eyes fell on Miss Gu's aunt, Ding Shi.

Ruan Tao sighed, first he took out a porcelain bottle from his bosom, poured out a pill for Mrs. He to take to prevent the old lady from rushing, and then said word by word: "Miss Gu has a fetus in her womb. It's been more than a month, and... it's stillborn."

Ding's hand holding the teacup shook, and the teacup shattered.

"Sir! You can't talk nonsense!" Ding cried, "Our girl is only in her prime, and she is a clean girl. If your words get out, she will die with anxiety. born……"

"Shut up!" Mrs. He scolded, "Who is dead? Who is dying so uneasy?"

"I said I wanted to take her to the He family, but you refused to let her go! You said she was a girl from the Gu family, and you could take care of her well... Is this how you take care of her?!" Mrs. He pointed at Ding, crying Angrily scolded.

Mrs. Ding didn't dare to say anything for a moment, Mrs. He turned her head and took Ruan Tao's hand, begging: "Sir, I don't count anything with a bad reputation. I just want this child to be safe and sound. You said her stomach That thing..."

"Live stillborn?" Zhao Su asked in confusion.

He has always disbelieved in these ghost stories, but when he first entered the hall and saw Miss Gu, he felt a little awkward. Miss Gu had a thin face, and even though she was covered with a quilt, it was not difficult to see that her abdomen was slightly bulging.

At first, he thought it was because he had been lying in bed for three years and drank the medicine for three years, but it turned out that he was pregnant?

"If it's really pregnant, why didn't the doctor see it just now?" Zhao Su asked half-believingly.

He doesn't believe in ghosts and gods, but even though he and Ruan Tao only met today, he also thinks that the other party will not be someone who uses such things to cheat money, so he is dubious about this matter.

"Because doctors can only diagnose pregnancies in living people, they can't diagnose stillbirths in living people's stomachs," Ruan Tao said.

"It's not completely dead. The fetus in Ms. Gu's womb is still growing up like a normal fetus after it's dead, and it keeps getting nutrients from the mother. But dead things are dead things after all, and they continue to grow. The body is also constantly decomposing, and the poison of the corpse will seep into Miss Gu's internal organs. That's why Miss Gu's body has these horrible bruises and pulses like broken porcelain signs of a living corpse. This is the poison entering the skin. Performance."

"In a sense, Miss Gu is pregnant with a child's corpse."

Ding Shi who was on the side heard this, and trembled with fright: "According to what you mean...then, is that a ghost?"

The temperature in the hall suddenly dropped, and the golden Buddha statue sitting in the center watched the crowd quietly with half-closed eyes.

Ruan Tao nodded: "In layman's terms, it's like this. If he is allowed to grow up, the day when the fetus is born will be the day when Miss Gu will die."

As soon as his words fell, Mrs. He almost fainted. Fortunately, the pill that Ruan Tao gave her just now was suspended, so she was fine for the time being.

Zhao Su frowned even tighter, he looked at Ruan Tao without looking at him, his eyes were full of inquiry.

"Sir! What, what should I do?" Mrs. He tightly grasped Ruan Tao's hand, like a drowning man grabbing the last straw.

"The top priority is to get the fetus out of Miss Gu's womb as soon as possible."

"Sir, please do it! We will give you as much money as you want. I am already at such an age, what is the use of those things? I only want this girl..."

"You are serious. The money has already been collected before, and there is absolutely no reason to collect it again." Seeing the old lady He crying uncontrollably for her granddaughter, Ruan Tao felt that her heart was sour, and she thought again Ms. Gu, who is only 15 years old and has no father and mother, suffers such a crime, her eye circles are also red.

"Just came out of the prison, came in a hurry, didn't bring anything with me, and asked me to go back and get it."

After speaking, Ruan Tao got up and walked out of the hall, followed by Zhao Su.

The moment he stepped out of the threshold of the hall, Ruan Tao looked back at Zhao Su behind him: "Mr. Zhao is not going home?"

Zhao Su brushed off the robe on his body, as if it was covered with incense ash after sitting in the hall for a while, and then stood up straight: "Since we met, it is fate. You have to see things clearly, see You have to get to the bottom of it."

The two walked outside the courtyard and got into the He family's carriage again. The driver went to Ruan Tao's house to pick up Ruan Tao. He knew where his family lived, so he didn't dare to delay for a moment, whipped his horse and rushed away.

In the car, Ruan Tao looked at the graceful and calm person sitting in front of him and asked curiously, "Brother Zhao, aren't you afraid?"

If ordinary people heard the word "ghost fetus", they would be scared out of their wits immediately. Just now everyone in the hall widened their eyes in fright, only this person frowned slightly, and his eyes were still bent, looking indifferent. Calm look.

Ruan Tao felt that if he had put some gold leaf on this person's face in the scene just now, he could have pulled him up to the lotus pedestal for offering incense.

"I don't believe this." Zhao Su replied.

He has always disliked theories about ghosts and gods, and thinks that the so-called "ghosts and gods" are just pushed by ghosts and gods when people are ill for a while and can't explain why.

Just like the "ghost fetus" that this person said in the palace today, in his opinion, the fetus died suddenly in the mother's body when it was four months old, and then the toxins produced by the decay caused the mother to be poisoned.

What this man just said about "although it is stillborn, it still grows in the mother's body" is probably because he is young and has little experience in medical practice, and because he is in this profession, so he said that .

But he is still very interested in it, just like although he doesn't believe in "theory of ghosts and gods", he still likes to read books about ghosts and monsters.

The carriage drove all the way to the east of the city. Seeing that it was about to reach the city gate, Zhao Su lifted the curtain and looked outside the car, and then asked, "I haven't arrived for so long. I don't know where Brother Ruan lives. where?"

"Gujing Village outside the city." Ruan Tao replied.

"Outside the city? Brother Ruan lives on Zhuangzi?"

"Where did Zhuangzi come from?" Ruan Tao laughed, "It's just a hut."

The carriage departed from the south gate of the city and traveled another three miles to Gujing Village. Ruan Tao's residence was under the locust tree at the east end of the village.

Ruan Tao and Zhao Su got out of the car together. Ruan Tao stepped forward to open the chai gate, and turned to Zhao Su as a gesture of invitation.

Zhao Su stood at the door and looked inside for a while, then saluted Ruan Tao, and stepped in with a little hesitation.

Seeing this, Ruan Tao raised his eyebrows and smiled, without saying anything, he closed the door and greeted Zhao Su, and went into the room to pack the things he needed.

Zhao Su looked around, the small courtyard was not big, the branches of the locust tree outside the Tianhe courtyard were seen up, and the unpaved mud floor was seen below, there was a road paved with gravel, extending from the hut hall to The gate of the courtyard.

He nodded. Although the hut is simple and crude, it is also clean.

Then, he carefully stepped on the gravel road and followed Ruan Tao into the main room.

As soon as you enter the main room, you can see an altar, but there is no place for gods or ancestors on it, but all kinds of messy things, such as yellow paper, cinnabar, compass, inkstone, copper bell, etc. The ground was covered with yellow paper, paper money, shoes, and even a pillow, which made it difficult for people to settle down.

On both sides of the altar, two dilapidated chairs were tilted and upside down, and the chairs were covered with strings of talisman seals.

Seeing this, Zhao Su's smiling eyes finally widened at this moment: "Brother Ruan! Has your family been burglarized?"

"Ah? No, it's just that the room is too small and there are too many things. I like to put everything where I can see it, so the room looks messy. Brother Zhao laughed at me." Ruan Tao patted Zhao Su shoulders.

"No problem." The smile on Zhao Su's face was a bit forced, and he said no problem but didn't take another step inside.

Ruan Tao walked to the altar, and while picking and choosing, he smiled and looked at Zhao Su who was standing at the door of the main room and refused to come in, and said: "Brother Zhao, a noble young master who was raised in the courtyard of a deep house in central Beijing, this time he followed the elder You must have seen such a small house for the first time when you came to Shangjun?"

Zhao Su was stunned for a moment, and then said, "I have seen it in paintings and books before, why do you conclude that I came with the eldest son?"

"Your surname is Zhao!" Ruan Tao smiled, "Zhao is a common surname in the world. It's not surprising that ten people bump into four people surnamed Zhao while walking on the road. It's just that Brother Zhao, your overall demeanor doesn't look like a frontier like Shangjun. People raised in the city?"

"Can't I come from the Central Plains or Jiangnan area to do business?" Zhao Su asked.

"Did you bring your family?" Ruan Tao opened a white porcelain bottle and sniffed it, then put it into his arms, "Of course not, if you bring your family, you won't be in a hurry when you come out of prison Instead, he ran around with an alchemist whom he had just met not long ago, looking around."

Zhao Su didn't answer, Ruan Tao pointed to the clothes on his body again: "The clothes on your body are made of silk weaving with golden dark flowers and cloud brocade. I have a friend who owns a pawnshop in Huai Kaifang. How many kinds does he have? The high-ranking officials who were exiled to Yelang used the clothes here, so they knew that this thing was a tribute, without the reward from His Majesty today, ordinary people can't wear it."

Ruan Tao nodded, put a string of copper coins in his bosom, picked up a piece of red silk and began to wrap a pair of scissors, and said while winding, "I'm afraid Brother Zhao might not be named Zhao, but the surname win."

The smile on the corner of Zhao Su's mouth disappeared instantly, and then gradually hooked up again. This person is much smarter than he imagined.

"Don't worry, I'm not interested in your life experience or what you are going to do now, and I have no intention of inquiring about the eldest son." Ruan Tao wrapped up the scissors, turned out a cloth pocket from the ground, and picked up some yellow paper , Zhubi, talisman and the pair of scissors were stuffed in together, and the cloth pocket was carried on the shoulder.

Afterwards, he stepped forward and patted Zhao Su on the shoulder and said, "Let's go, I just want to save that poor Miss Gu."

Zhao Su nodded, and the two walked out side by side.

After getting into the car, Ruan Tao took out the scissors wrapped in red silk from his cloth pocket and said worriedly: "I don't know if it will work, it's also my first time doing it."

This is really the first time he has encountered a "ghost fetus". As for whether this method will work, he has never tried it, and he doesn't know.

Besides, his talent is average, and his ability is not outstanding, if he can't get that "thing" out this time, then the girl...

Ruan Tao sighed, and then he thought of the scene when he suppressed Miss Gu's corpse poison in the temple just now, the speed made him feel incredible!

Ruan Tao looked at his hands, he always felt that his cultivation base had inexplicably grown a lot today.

If it was the past, it would have taken at least two quarters of an hour to suppress the poison of the corpse, but today it took effect instantly!

Could it be that he accidentally activated some hidden buff?

"What are you thinking about?" Zhao Su asked when he saw him staring at his hand for a long time.

Ruan Tao came back to his senses: "I'm thinking about Miss Gu."

"It will be fine when the stillborn baby is taken out." Zhao Su said in relief.

Ruan Tao sighed: "Where is it so easy? After the fetus is taken out, I really have nothing to do. It's just that Miss Gu can escape from the sea of ​​suffering."

"how you said that?"

Ruan Tao looked at him: "Brother Zhao hasn't married yet?"

"No." The topic jumped a little fast, and Zhao Su was a little puzzled, "Brother Ruan is not married either?"

Ruan Tao took out a sugar-fried chestnut from his purse, removed the shell and stuffed it in his mouth, saying indifferently, "I'm so Longyang."

"Cough cough, cough..." Zhao Su choked suddenly.

"Even though Brother Zhao has never married a wife, he should understand that a woman alone cannot make a child. But Miss Gu has been in a coma. Although she lives in the monastery, she lives alone in another courtyard. The family sent people to guard it in turn twelve hours a day, who can get close to her?" Ruan Tao said with deep eyes after eating the chestnuts.

Zhao Su was startled: "What does Brother Ruan mean?!"

Ruan Tao let out a long sigh, and his eyes were a little red: "Perhaps it was when the servants of the Guhe family were lazy and let others take advantage of it? I hope I am overthinking."

Otherwise, this girl is really pitiful...

The author says:

Good morning!I wonder if everyone thinks the pace is a bit fast?In other words, how big is the scope of terror that everyone can accept?There may be some slightly scary scenes later.
