Good, this can't be eaten

"Line up, line up." Xie Chi clapped his hands, "Don't touch things! Don't run around, just stay there, there's still something for you to cooperate with tomorrow, you understand?"

The little sister's mother is not coming back tonight, she is staying in the hotel temporarily, it was suggested by Xie Chi, because no one knows what will happen tonight, it is inconvenient to have too many people in the family, in case you accidentally hurt something It's obviously better to be more vigilant.

After making arrangements for those little water ghosts, Xie Chi went to wash his face and brush his teeth, and got ready to go to bed. Everything that needs to be arranged has been arranged, and everything that needs to be notified has been notified. Then just wait.

She was lying on the bed with the dumplings in her arms, and was about to brush her phone and go to sleep, when she heard the noise outside, Xie Chi felt something was wrong, jumped off the bed, and walked outside with the dumplings.

She opened the door and saw that many people had gathered outside, all holding a flashlight in their hands, and they didn't know what they were talking about. Seeing that Xie Chi had come out, some people walked forward bravely.

"Hand over the things you brought back!"

"We all saw it! You brought a lot... back, hand it over! It must be burned! Burn it all!"

One of the women seemed to have just lost her husband, her eyes were red: "I'm going to burn them to avenge my man!"

Xie Chi was puzzled, what gave them the courage to think that they could burn a group of ghosts to death?To be honest, if Xie Chi didn't stop him and let these brats move, the village could be wiped out in just one night.

The kind that doesn't have one left.

They... are too confident, right?

Xie Chi tilted his head: "Are you sure? Do you really want me to let them out?"

When Xie Chi said that, they were a little more scared, probably because they remembered the appearance of those little ghosts and felt a little fear in their hearts.

But the more this happened, the more they wanted to burn those scary-looking little ghosts to death, because only by burning all those little ghosts could they be really safe.

The more guilty and fearful they are, the less they want the little ghosts to see the sun tomorrow.

After all, most people in this village have done something against their conscience, even if they didn't do it themselves, they have been accomplices.

"Get out of the way! I knew that you came to our village for some purpose, and it really wasn't a good thing! Do you want to get out of the way!"

"We won't be polite if you don't get out of the way!"

Two young strong men came out from the crowd, and tried to drag Xie Chi by force. They had just walked over, and before they had time to make a move, countless heads popped out from behind Xie Chi, one on top of the other.

That scene could be called panic, countless big heads came out of the door frame behind Xie Chi, staring at them leisurely.

The two of them were so frightened that they backed away again and again, not daring to take a step forward.

They said they would burn those water ghosts to death, but when those water ghosts really appeared in front of them, none of them dared to move.

"I really don't understand what you're thinking." Xie Chi stretched out his hand and touched the head of the water ghost in front. I had just touched it, and Tuanzi silently moved her hand to the top of his head.

Xie Chi: ...

Xie Chi touched several of them, and then said: "If I don't restrain them, guess if you can really burn them? There are 172 children present. Do you know how much resentment they have in their hearts?"

"You think I'm here to harm you, and I'm too lazy to correct your thoughts, because I really don't want to save people like you. If you are brave enough, you can go forward and try to see if your heads are hard enough."

She grinned, with a bit of contempt in her smile. If these people really dare to come up, she still admires their courage.

Sure enough, after Xie Chi finished speaking, none of them dared to move, they all hesitated like a stone.

Xie Chi really thought this scene was a bit funny, she hugged her arm, with a half-smile: "Hurry up if you want to come, don't disturb my sleep."

Diliu, another bunch of heads popped out, looking out one after another, probably looking for his biological parents.

The people who were swept by their eyes felt a chill in their bodies, and they didn't know what they thought in their hearts. One by one, they retreated slowly. Originally, they had surrounded the entire doorway, and within a short time, they had already retreated several meters. outside.

The most courageous one was actually a woman, that is, the one whose husband died. She screamed and snatched an oil barrel, and held a lighter in the other hand: "If you don't dare, I dare!"

Before she came over, a water ghost crawled out from behind Xie Chi. The little ghost baby should be relatively small in this group, and it felt a little stunted before death.

It crawled out slowly and looked up at the woman.

After a while, as if confirming something, he called out softly.

The woman was carrying the oil drum, looking crazy, but after being stared at by the ghost baby for a while, she seemed to remember something, bang, the oil drum in her hand fell to the ground, and her whole body trembled crazily.

After a few seconds, the woman dropped everything in her hand and rushed towards the ghost baby: "Xi'er! Is it Xi'er!"

She knelt on the ground and actually hugged the ghost baby. With trembling palms, she touched the back of the ghost baby's head as if confirming something.

After touching it, she seemed to have lost all her strength, she sat back abruptly, her eyes were dull, and tears flowed down her cheeks.

"Xi'er... Mother's Xi'er..."

After she reacted, the woman wailed loudly, crying very embarrassingly, and there was a little despair in her embarrassment. Her howling voice was ugly, but it sounded like a piece of broken glass being sawed back and forth in people's hearts, a blunt pain.

She hugged the ghost baby tightly, and cried for a long time, until the tears dried up in the end, she was almost howling dryly.

Those people who had retreated a bit, saw that the ghost baby in her arms was still, they became more courageous, and quietly lifted the oil barrel to get closer.

When the woman saw it, she held the ghost baby in one hand, and lifted the oil drum in the other: "Who dares to come here!"

She said hoarsely: "My man is dead! My daughter is gone! I'm just a loner! Whoever dares to move will die together!"

She is like a mad dog, biting anyone who dares to get close, those people finally dare not come close, one side is those ghost babies, and the other side is guarded by women, they have the heart but not the courage, you look at me, I look at you , It seemed too timid to leave, and I didn't know what to do when I stayed, so I was in a dilemma.

The woman ignored them and just hugged the ghost baby, sitting on the ground and crying. She was full of guilt and was aroused to the extreme at this moment.

The ghost baby in her arms should be called Xi'er by nickname, it was her first child.

Pregnant in October, feeling the little piece of meat in the belly grow into a doll bit by bit, only women know that feeling.

When Xi'er was born, their family was still very poor. At that time, families with some money could go to the hospital, and those without money still delivered at home. There were special stable women in the village, which were much cheaper than in the hospital.

Her Xier was delivered by the midwife. After five or six hours of pain, pots of blood poured out, and finally the daughter was born. The umbilical cord was cut with scissors, and the baby was completely separated from her belly. .

What she didn't expect was that when her mother-in-law took the child and heard that it was a daughter, she immediately threw it on the ground, and her face turned ugly at that time.

She was completely exhausted because of the childbirth. Seeing her daughter being thrown on the ground, she struggled to get up to hold her. The child's bones were soft, and the back of her head was sunken. She hadn't picked up her daughter for a minute before her husband died. walked in.

The husband said that the family could not afford a little girl, and he said he would take the little girl away to be raised by relatives, so he took the child away.

After that, she never saw Xi'er again. In fact, the woman also knew in her heart that at that time, how could anyone nearby be willing to raise another daughter who was not her own?

They don't have any rich relatives, most of them are from families like theirs, and they want to have a son if they try their best. No one is willing to raise other people's daughters.

But she always had some hope in her heart. Even if every time she mentioned Xi'er to her husband from then on, she would be perfunctory, she also secretly hoped that Xi'er was indeed adopted by someone else's family, and she didn't say that Xi'er was adopted. What a good day, at least you can grow up in peace.

Until I saw that little ghost baby.

That is her Xi'er.

It's not just because her Xier is malnourished, she was born smaller, and it's not just because of the sunken back of her head.

Also because of the mother-daughter nature, the moment she saw the child she could be sure that it was Xi'er.

She has already let her daughter down once, how could she make her daughter burn again after she made a ghost?

She wasn't afraid, she wasn't afraid that she would be bitten to death like her husband, if that was the case, she would admit it.

She just thought that no matter what, she would hug her daughter again...

Xie Chi stood at the door with a group of little ghosts behind him and a group of villagers in front of her. In the open space between her and the villagers was the woman holding the little ghosts.

She cried for a long time, and at last she had no strength left, and she kept moaning long and short: "Xi'er..."

"Xi'er..."

"Do you hate mother?"

"I'm sorry for you, Xi'er..."

"I'm sorry……"

The little ghost in her arms was ignorant, and raised its head in a daze. No one knew whether it hated it or not. It just tilted its big head and stayed quietly in the woman's arms, with a thin body All huddled together.

After a while, it suddenly struggled out of the woman's arms, and slowly crawled towards Xie Chi without nostalgia. It may have long since forgotten its mother, because sometimes hate is longer than love.

It crawled behind Xie Chi, and stretched out its head to glance at the woman quietly.

Perhaps in its heart, this woman is just the family of the man it killed, nothing more.
