Chapter 4 The sound of a gong
"Shh." Zhang Xiaohua immediately stretched out a finger and put it beside her mouth, made a gesture of silence, then carefully glanced out of the door, then turned around and lowered her voice, "Small sound, don't attract it."
I looked at Zhang Xiaohua with a cautious expression and stared at me very seriously, as if I was signaling me that I would better not mention the word "ghost", otherwise,,
Since I walked out of Shibali Village, the ghosts I have seen have more people than this girl has seen. If they are ordinary ghosts, I can easily settle them. They are afraid that I will not have time. I still have to be afraid of them. It is a joke. But when Zhang Xiaohua looked at me with a look of intimidation, I couldn't help but laugh and said, "What are you afraid of? Even if there is really, I can't eat you, haha."
Lao Zhang suddenly interrupted, "Okay, stop making trouble in Huahua. The seventh day of the lunar calendar is right. No matter how powerful it is, it is just a breath, and it cannot be eaten. We never do anything bad in our lives, and we are afraid of those ghosts and strange things to do."
The old lady poked the crutch on the ground with dissatisfaction and said, "Damn old man, you are not afraid. People are preparing to order something outside. Our family is good. Not only does it have nothing, but it is also just yelling about taboos."
Lao Zhang smiled bitterly and said, "Okay, okay, I won't say it anymore. You mother and I go to the east room to sleep. Tonight, I will sleep in the west room with Chuqi. Go to bed quickly. Don't fuck women's houses that useless heart."
Zhang Xiaohua helped the old lady walk towards the east room. When she approached the door, she suddenly turned her head and looked at me, and gestured without saying a word. When I saw it, she was asking, "Can you really catch a ghost?"
I smiled, and happened to be seen by Lao Zhang at this time. I immediately glared at Zhang Xiaohua. Zhang Xiaohua pouted, gave me a blank look, and helped the old lady into the east room.
Close the door, Lao Zhang and I walked into the west room and moved the oil lamp in the main hall to the west room. The originally dark west room suddenly became much brighter. On a wide bed, the quilt was neatly spread on it. Lao Zhang smiled and said, "On the seventh day of the lunar month, go to bed early."
Of course, I didn't feel sleepy and hurriedly asked Lao Zhang: "Uncle, why do people who die in your village use bamboo rafts and water to bury them, and,,."
Lao Zhang's face turned cold and he interrupted me and said, "That's not water burial, that's elimination of filth."
"Yes." I frowned and said, "Removing filth, what is removing filth? Is there anything dirty on the body?"
Lao Zhang looked a little ugly, he was silent for a moment, and whispered: "Qinqi, can you really help our village?"
I said without comment: "Since I encountered this, it was this incident that attracted me. If I could help, I would do my best. Uncle, just say it."
Lao Zhang lowered his head and thought for a while before he slowly spoke: "Oh, the old rules in the village are gone. Anyone who is contaminated with that thing will become an extremely ominous filth. According to the rules left by our ancestors, they cannot be buried in the village. They must be removed from their ancestral homes. Just pretend that there is never this person in our village, and then let him go down the river and completely cut off relations with our village. In this way, we living people can retain auspicious energy and eliminate filth."
I nodded slightly and understood a little. It turned out that the corpse I saw before was the filth removed by the people in Zhangjia Village. But,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
After thinking about it, I said, "Uncle, what is the name of the young man who died today? When I entered the village, I saw his mother crying at the entrance of the village. "
Old Zhang sighed again and said, "His name is Xiaolou, Zhang Xiaolou, their family, but he is only one son,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
I also sighed, Yes, Xiao Mo Ye of Alpaca Village, isn't it the same? If you want to say that in this life, a person's life will experience three disasters and nine difficulties, it is like the sky falling, and in the end it is only sad alone.
When Lao Zhang said the sadness, his voice suddenly increased a little, and he said angrily: "I don't know where the dead girls came from. They always pestered some young men in the village. Humph, now the whole village is so terrifying that no one dares to go out until dark. Some even make blood on the blade and hang it on the door. Some put on statues of gods and burn paper money every day. I'm not afraid of it. If I touch it, I must twist its neck."
Haoran's righteousness emanates from Lao Zhang's body, and I can't help but open my eyes. It's true that I am a firm and determined nature. No wonder I'm not afraid of any evil spirits. In fact, Lao Zhang is the nature that many ordinary people should have. In life, you should cultivate Haoran's righteousness into your body. What are you afraid of?
However, ordinary evil spirits will not do anything. Anything that has something to do is not something ordinary righteous can resist. I think the things outside are not intended to mess with Lao Zhang's house at all, otherwise Lao Zhang would not be able to resist it, because since that thing can kill a few people in a row, Dao Dao must be quite big, well,
I said, "By the way, uncle, are you all the families with the surname Zhang? I think the villages here are all very large."
Old Zhang breathed a sigh of relief and said, "There are not all. There are four villages here together. It looks quite small. Our Zhangjia Village is a village. To the south is Niujia Village, to the west is Xiaozhuang Village, and to the northwest of Xiaozhuang Village is Yanjia Village. If we say that there are more people in our Zhangjia Village, the other three villages have very few people."
I frowned and said, "Has this happened in the other three villages?"
Lao Zhang thought about it, shook his head with uncertainty and said, "It shouldn't be there,."
"Uh." I smiled in surprise and said, "What does it mean that there should be no one? You villages are all together. Can such a big thing not spread?"
"Dongdongdongdongdong~~~"
As I was talking, I heard a sound of gongs coming from the street outside. I couldn't help but look at Lao Zhang. Lao Zhang immediately turned his head and blew out the oil lamp on the head of the bed. The room suddenly fell into darkness.
I hurriedly asked, "Uncle, what's wrong?"
"Stop talking loudly." Old Zhang whispered, and then said slowly: "This is a patrol team composed of several farmers in the village. After nine o'clock in the evening, it is the hour of the hour. This knock is to let the villagers hide at home and sleep. No one should go out. They can't open the door until dawn tomorrow. Moreover, if you make a noise at this time, what will happen again will be the fate of each family. No matter whether they die or not, no one will dare to go out to take care of things. Go to bed quickly."
I gradually adapted to the dark environment, but I felt that the outside of the window was bright. After all, there was moonlight outside. I looked out the window quietly for a long time, then smiled slightly. I always said I was not afraid, but I was actually just for the sake of face. Isn’t I still afraid?
Just waiting for the middle of the day, I will go to meet the ghost thing that scares the villagers tonight and disrupts the villagers' families.
After a while, after hearing Lao Zhang's sound of sleeping sound, I quietly walked out of bed, opened the door and walked out,
