I asked again: "Then you and Senior Crazy Taoist..."
The crazy Taoist immediately said: "We are too senior, how can we do such a simple thing?"
I smiled awkwardly, looked at the old cat, and asked, "Does it look like there are only two of us?"
The old cat smiled bitterly, showed an expression that he had guessed a long time ago, and said: "What can be done? The old madman has now lost his martial arts. Even if he follows us here, what effect can he have? As for this Buddha...
...It seems that apart from being a superb medical expert, it doesn’t have any effect, right?”
When Lao Mao said this, the volume was very loud. I immediately guessed that he said it deliberately, just to let those guys hear it, which was a way to provoke the general.
The crazy Taoist was an old man and ignored the old cat at all. He picked his ears and walked out, saying: "I went to the bedroom to sleep first. I haven't slept in Lao Lin's bed yet, so I don't know."
What does it feel like..."
Dahuang quickly followed him out. He couldn't stay here for too long. Without the Huanyang Jade, Dahuang is basically a ghost now. Under the effect of the resurrecting herb, he may not be able to control himself and resurrect early.
After listening to the old cat's words, the Smiling Buddha said with a smile: "Young man, you don't have to rush to use the provocation method on me. What you said is actually right. Apart from my superb medical skills, I really don't have any very clever means of exorcising ghosts and warding off evil spirits.
...Oh, it's getting late, I've been running around all day, you two work hard, I'll go to bed first."
As he said this, this guy swung his fat body and walked slowly towards the bedroom. Fortunately, my grandfather's bedroom had a double bed. If it were a single bed, this guy and the old madman would definitely sleep in it.
No more.
After everyone was sent away, only me, the old cat, and Dahuang's cold corpse were left in the west room.
It's very cold at night in the mountains. Although it's mid-September, it still feels like the twelfth lunar month of winter.
Wild birds in the distance would occasionally chirp and purr and fly by, and occasionally there would be dogs barking in the farmyard not far away. The old cat and I looked at the tightly sealed windows and thought it was nothing.
Problem.
The old cat lit up a cigarette and said: "I think there should be no evil spirits who dare to come here tonight, right? Lin Yang, are there any unjust ghosts here in your house?"
I smelled Laomao's cigarette, which filled the air, and I felt that the room was much warmer. There is a saying in the countryside, "Smoke warms the house, and farts warm the bed." It means that after smoking, the room will be warmer, and after farting, the room will be warmer.
It feels warm under the covers, and it seems to make sense.
I thought for a while and said: "I don't remember that the elders in our family said that there are ghosts who died unjustly here, but there is a reservoir to the east of our village. There are quite a few drowned ghosts in the reservoir, and they are all very fierce. I advise you.
Just be more careful."
After hearing this, the old cat glared and said: "Then this matter is going to be tricky. The drowned ghosts are quite cruel. Lin Yang, prepare your moon-chasing knife. We will definitely have a hard fight tonight."
"
I smiled and said: "What is the Moon-Chasing Knife? This is a sharp sword."
The old cat and I were sitting on the pony in the west room. Although there were a lot of things in the west room, the space was quite open.
The temperature was cold, so Dahuang's body lying on the straw mat on the small bed melted very slowly, but after an hour or two, water drops were already dripping slowly from the straw mat on the bed.
Tick-tock, tick-tock... The sound of water drops was particularly harsh in the empty West Room. Along with the clicking sound of the old cat smoking, it was a strange symphony.
The mountain breeze outside the window began to rustle the newspapers on the window, and occasionally a strange wind sound came from the crack in the door...
In order to prevent evil spirits from coming, the lights were turned on in the west room. The two of us didn't prepare to sleep, so we just sat on the horse.
The dim lights in the west room looked particularly warm in the quiet night, but it made both of us a little sleepy.
We sat there until one or two o'clock in the middle of the night, but it was the old cat who couldn't bear it anymore. This guy smoked a lot of cigarettes, and he liked to drink water when he smoked. After drinking too much water, he naturally wanted to pee. He looked at Dahuang's body and said:
"Lin Yang, please watch for a while, I have to go pee."
I nodded and said, "Go back quickly. I guess all the evil ghosts around you have been attracted by this resurrecting herb these days. If you come back late, don't let any evil ghost get you."
The old cat curled his lips and said, "Don't worry, I've traveled all over the world for so many years, and I won't capsize in the gutter. Even if there are ghosts in this place where birds don't poop, it's not that big of a deal."
As the old cat walked out with the red rope, he lit a cigarette before leaving. I knew that although this guy had a tough mouth, he was still cautious after all, so I quickly grabbed him and asked him to wipe some cow tears on his face.
, not only can perform night vision, but can also identify the movements of ghosts.
The old cat quickly complied, and after touching the cow's tears, he walked out the door.
It was really cold in the mountains at night. As soon as I opened the door, a gust of cold wind came in, making me tremble all over. I quickly closed the door and looked at the rhubarb lying on the straw mat that had turned purple and black from the cold. I was suddenly afraid.
stand up.
Although Dahuang has been with me day and night for so long, he has always been a lively person. But now, except for the faint shadow of Dahuang that can be seen on the bed, he looks like a frozen dead person.
Not to mention his terrifying appearance, the smell alone after he melted made me feel sick. If the old cat hadn't lit up a few cigarettes, the whole room would have been filled with the smell of the corpse.
.
While I tried not to look at the corpse, I whispered to myself that the corpse was rhubarb, and whether rhubarb could bring the dead back to life all depended on it...
Sure enough, when I thought that Dahuang could become a real living person in the blink of an eye, and could continue to improve to help us deal with the Xu family, and maybe he could even catch a girl at first sight... Thinking of these happy things, I started to get excited.
, thus forgetting the horror of that corpse.
I closed the door tightly and retreated to the pony, with my back facing the direction of Dahuang's corpse, and silently closed my eyes to rest.
However, I don’t know if it’s a psychological effect or if something is really wrong. As soon as I close my eyes, I always feel that a pair of eyes are staring at me, and they are staring at the position of my neck...
Thinking of this, I quickly turned my head, but when I turned my head, I didn't find anything unusual.
Dahuang's body was still lying there quietly, and the melted water on the body was still dripping on the ground along the straw mat. However, when I turned my head again and closed my eyes, I clearly felt it again.
A gaze was cast towards me!
It was a very cold gaze, definitely not a human gaze. I was almost certain that this gaze definitely existed!
At the same time, I realized another serious problem, that is, where did the old cat go?
The old cat has been peeing for a long time, right? It has been more than ten minutes! Not to mention peeing, La Xiang should be back by now, right?
The more I thought about it, the more something was wrong, so I quickly turned my head away again!
This time I learned the lesson and never looked at Dahuang's corpse again, because I knew that Dahuang's corpse had not completely melted yet, and even if he could transform into a corpse, it would be impossible for him not to make any noise, so that look was not at all
It belongs to Rhubarb, but it should be someone else.
So when I turned my head, the first thing I looked at was not the rhubarb, but the window!
The old cat and I sealed the glass windows from the inside out with newspapers!
However, when I looked at it, I immediately realized something was wrong. Between the newspapers on the glass window, one of the newspapers had been torn open. From the gap, I saw a pair of eyes, a pair of cat-like eyes.
The reason why it is said to be like a cat is because in the dark night, these eyes emit bright light. I know that this is not because his eyes can shine by themselves, but because his eyes can reflect the light of the lights in the West Room.
I stared coldly into those eyes. After so many things, my first reaction after seeing the ghost was no longer fear, but vigilance.
I slowly touched the moon-chasing sword from my side and said loudly into those eyes: "Are you coming in or am I going out?" \t
