The little Taoist Master hurried back home. Now after school every day, he never stays on the road and runs back to the Patriarch Temple quickly, for fear that he will not see the Master when he returns to the Patriarch Temple.
"Little Taoist Master." The person who greeted him was not his master, but Secretary Maolin.
"Uncle Zhou, why are you here?" The little Taoist priest was a little surprised.
"I have something I want to ask you for help with," Zhou Maolin said.
The old Taoist priest explained the matter in detail and did not say how to deal with it. He just asked the young Taoist priest to help.
After hearing the whole story, the little Taoist priest said: "If the person is scary, this matter will be easier to handle. I will make preparations, and the matter will be resolved tomorrow."
"What should I do?" Zhou Maolin asked curiously.
"Don't worry about anything." After the little Taoist priest said that, he went out.
The trail leader went out to get some vegetables and came back with a hare in his hand. He also held a fish trap specially designed to catch loaches. He didn't know what was in it.
The Taoist priest prepared the meal and left Zhou Maolin to eat at the ancestral temple. Zhou Maolin always wanted to know how the Taoist priest would solve the problem, but the Taoist priest remained tight-lipped.
"Taoist, how do the little Taoist plan to deal with this matter?" Zhou Maolin couldn't tell from the little Taoist, so he was about to ask the old Taoist.
The old Taoist priest laughed and said, "It won't work if you tell me."
Zhou Maolin was dismissed with just one sentence.
After dinner, when Zhou Maolin was about to leave, the Taoist priest handed the fish cage to Zhou Maolin: "Don't look at the things inside. Otherwise, don't blame me for not telling you if something happens. Untie the tail of this fish cage."
, just put it under the window of Xiao Guilian's house. Don't open it and look at it."
"Little Taoist Priest, what exactly is in here?" Zhou Maolin held the fish cage and felt a little confused.
"It won't work if you say it. As long as you don't open the tail, nothing will happen. Put it somewhere and open it again. After opening it, you leave immediately. As long as the ghost appears tonight, everything will be revealed tomorrow morning.
"The little Taoist laughed.
Zhou Maolin held the fish cage as if he were holding a dynamite pack that could explode at any time. After returning to Xianji Bridge, he immediately went to Xiao Guilian's house and repeatedly told Xiao Guilian not to touch the fish cage before placing the fish cage under Xiao Guilian's window sill.
The tail of the fish basket was untied. After untying it, Zhou Maolin went home directly.
Night was slowly falling, but Xiao Guilian was not sleepy at all. According to the usual rules, that thing would appear soon.
"Dong dong dong!"
The knock on the door came as promised.
rustle……
A dark shadow began to move under the window.
"ah!"
Suddenly there was a scream, and the black figure suddenly fell down. The knocking on the door suddenly stopped, and then a series of footsteps were heard, and they walked away quickly.
The night suddenly calmed down.
Xiao Guilian thought to herself that the Taoist priest really had a way, and it seemed that he had scared the ghost away. He felt much calmer and fell into a deep sleep.
After dawn, after having breakfast, Zhou Maolin came to Xiao Guilian's house.
"Guilian, did anything happen last night?" Zhou Maolin asked.
Xiao Guilian talked about what happened last night.
Zhou Maolin went to the window sill of Xiao Guilian's house and found a piece of black cloth cut into a human shape on the ground, supported by bamboo strips and hung on a bamboo pole. Apparently this was how the ghost on the windowsill was created.
"Bastard thing!"
Zhou Maolin was very angry. He naturally understood that this matter was simply scary. It was too much to make a fuss for such a long time. But apart from leaving these things on the ground, there were no traces left. There was no way to judge based on these things.
Find the person who caused the trouble. But the little Taoist priest said that this matter will be revealed today. Could it be that the little Taoist priest's prediction was wrong? The little Taoist priest is so sure, he naturally has his support. So how can the little Taoist priest find out?
What about the guy who did the trick?
"Secretary Maolin, something happened! Something happened!" Just when Zhou Maolin was confused, a brigade cadre hurried over.
Xiao Yinshun, the commander of the militia company, came here. Xiao Yinshun was wearing a pair of straw sandals and a green military cap to show that he was different from other commune members. He looked nervous, and it was obvious that something big had happened.
"What happened? You are in such a panic. You are the militia company commander of the brigade and you have a gun in your hand. How can you be so panicked? How dare I hand over the gun to you?"
"Zhou Hehe was bitten by a snake. It seems that his life is in danger!" Xiao Yinshun straightened his body quickly. This militia company commander made Xiao Yinshun the number one figure in Xianji Bridge. If Zhou Maolin was dissatisfied, his position would not be stable.
.So, he had to perform better in front of Zhou Maolin.
"Let's go and have a look." Zhou Maolin already vaguely knew what was going on. "Go to the fork and wait for the Taoist Master. Tell the Taoist Master about this and ask him to come over. Be polite. I am not asking you to be tied up.
People, please!"
"I know. The Taoist Master is such a thin man, how can I kidnap him?" Xiao Yinshun said. In fact, Xiao Yinshun was originally planning to block the Taoist Master. If the Taoist Master refused to come, he would also capture the Taoist Master. But Mao Lin
When the secretary said this, Xiao Yinshun didn't dare.
Zhou Jinhe was also Zhou Maolin's family, and Zhou Maolin had already heard about Zhou Jinhe's desire to partner up with Xiao Guilian. However, even Zhou Heyuan and his father Zhou Yukun acquiesced or even went along with it, so Zhou Maolin couldn't say anything.
Zhou Maolin walked to Zhou Jinhe's house. This bachelor lived in a thatched house two houses away from Xiao Guilian's house. He walked there in a minute or two.
Zhou Jinhe was lying on the bed, looking very strange.
"Alloy, what's going on?" Zhou Maolin asked.
Zhou Jinhe seemed to be in even more pain, moaning in pain, and did not answer Zhou Maolin's words. Instead, Zhou Jinhe's relatives rushed to explain the situation.
"I was bitten by a snake. I don't know what kind of snake it was. It bit me in two places, one bite from the tiger's mouth and one bite from the ankle. Now the wound at the tiger's mouth is swollen from the hand to the chest, and the wound at the ankle is swollen from the foot to the abdomen.
.”
"Why was he bitten by a snake? Is Hehe such a hard-working person this early in the morning?" Zhou Maolin asked.
"If I ask him, he won't tell me. It must have been a while since he was bitten by the snake."
"Alloy, where were you bitten by the snake?" Zhou Maolin asked.
"Ouch, it hurts me to death! Ouch, it hurts me to death." Zhou Jinhe kept shouting out the pain, but did not answer Zhou Maolin's words.
Zhou Maolin simply stood aside without asking any more questions.
"Secretary Maolin, what should we do? We can't just wait for Alloy to die!"
"What can I do? I don't know how to treat snake bites. Have you called a doctor?" Zhou Maolin asked.
"I shouted, but they refused to come. They said they didn't know how to treat snake bites."
"I'll ask Xiao Yinshun to call the Taoist priest, let's treat the dead horse as a living horse doctor." Zhou Maolin said in a deep voice.
