I was a little stunned when I saw that the little devil who was quite fierce just now disappeared after being hit by the yellow talisman I threw.
Just now I just threw the copper coins randomly, without chanting a spell or setting up a formation. Although the copper coins would cause some damage to him, I didn't just drive him away like this!
They left their mark on Mrs. Gu, but now they give up so easily. I am a little confused about these two brats. What on earth are they doing?
"Zhao Dongfang..."
Before I could figure these things out, my sister-in-law, who was so frightened by the little devils that she shivered, hid in the corner and called my name softly.
I immediately ran to Mrs. Gu.
Sister-in-law Gu was huddled in the corner. After seeing me, he slowly stretched out his hand to me, "I'm so scared that my legs are weak. Can you help me up?"
I nodded "Okay."
Then I helped Mrs. Gu to sit on the bed aside.
Seeing that Sister-in-law Gu was so shocked that she still hadn't come back to her senses, I ran to the living room and poured her a glass of hot water.
"Sister-in-law Gu, drink some hot water first to calm down the shock."
Mrs. Gu looked at me with gratitude, then slowly took the hot water from my hand and drank it.
After drinking a cup of hot water, Sister-in-law Gu felt much better. She raised her head and looked at me, "What were those two things just now? I was sleeping well, but suddenly I felt very cold, and I felt like there was something pressing on me.
It hit my body and made it much more difficult for me to breathe.
Later, I heard someone laughing next to me, and when I opened my eyes, I saw two very scary children standing next to my bed.
I was so frightened that I hurriedly hid aside. Then I heard your voice? Zhao Dongfang, are those two children humans?"
"They are indeed not humans, they are all ghosts, but now they have been trained into imps by someone. Their purpose of coming here..."
I hesitated for a moment before saying the second half of my words, "Their purpose of finding you today is to kill you!"
After Sister-in-law Gu learned the cruel truth, she was very surprised. After the surprise, she started to cry, "Woooo... Wuwu... I am just an ordinary rural woman. I have never harmed anyone. I am walking on the road."
Sometimes, I am very cautious, for fear of stepping on an ant. I obviously did nothing wrong, but who is trying to kill me?"
Sister-in-law Gu cried very wrongedly, so I had to comfort her and said, "Don't cry yet. Aren't you still living well and nothing has happened to you?"
After hearing what I said, Mrs. Gu slowly wiped away her tears and raised her head to look at me. However, at this time, her eyes no longer had the slightest hint of gratitude, but were full of doubts and wariness.
"Zhao Dongfang, who are you?" Sister-in-law Gu asked coldly.
"I am who I am, Zhao Dongfang!" Sister-in-law Gu's change was a little too fast, and I was still a little uncomfortable with it.
"Hmph..." She snorted coldly, "I have lived for decades. I dare not say that I have seen all kinds of storms, but I am also a person with life experience. Do you think you can deceive me with such a lame excuse?
?”
Without giving me a chance to defend myself, Sister-in-law Gu spoke very quickly, and continued, "You were not sleeping in your room in the middle of the night, but you showed up in time when I was in danger. Don't tell me that you happened to listen when I came out to use the bathroom.
There was movement in my room, so come over and take a look. I don’t believe there is such a coincidence. I’m afraid you’ve already prepared it!”
"In addition, you said that you and your friends are all photographers, but you can immediately tell them that they are imps and know that they are coming to kill me. How do you know that? And most people see ghosts.
If you say that, the faint of heart will be frightened and faint, and even the bold ones will immediately hide aside. But what about you? Not only did you not have the slightest fear, you also calmly took out the peach wood sword to deal with those two
Damn it, would an ordinary photographer have such ability?"
Sister-in-law Gu's eyes were blazing: "Who are you? And why do you want to get close to our mother and daughter?"
I was speechless for a moment. Although I had the intention to deceive Sister-in-law Gu, I just exposed too many flaws.
Although Mrs. Gu said she was an ordinary rural woman, she was not stupid at all. On the contrary, she was very shrewd and saw all the problems at once.
I hesitated for a moment, and then said, "I did lie to you. The three of us are indeed not photographers. Ni Loach and I are both college students, but in addition, I have another identity. I am a Maoshan Taoist priest. The purpose of our coming here is also
It’s not sketching, but to find out the reason why Lu Chen’s family was exterminated.”
"Lu Chen?" Sister-in-law Gu was stunned. "You said you are here to investigate the cause of death of Lu Chen and his family?"
I nodded "That's right."
Then I told Mrs. Gu everything about the ghost child.
Then I took out the ghost child's spiritual tablet, and then the ghost child slowly came out of the spiritual tablet.
"Aunt Gu..." the ghost child called out very cooperatively.
"Baby, it's really you!" After Sister-in-law Gu saw the ghost child, she was stunned for a moment, and then a look of ecstasy appeared in her eyes.
Originally, she planned to step forward and hug the ghost child, but she stretched out her hand and quickly took it back.
She smiled awkwardly.
"Sister-in-law Gu, I have told you everything now. But there is one thing I want to ask you?" I said in a stern tone.
"What's going on?" Sister-in-law Gu asked me.
"Last night, when I was housekeeper, you brought some sacrifices to worship the ghost child in the middle of the night. Why did you choose to go in the middle of the night? And when I asked you about it the next day, you didn't answer the question.
I told the truth, but you hid this matter from me, what is your purpose of doing this?"
Sister-in-law Gu opened her mouth, as if she had something to say.
The ghost child stared at Aunt Gu closely, "Aunt Gu, is everything he said true?"
Seeing how angry and nervous the ghost kid is now, if Aunt Gu doesn't give the ghost kid the answer he wants, I have no doubt that the ghost kid will immediately rush up and tear Aunt Gu into pieces.
It is precisely for this reason that I never told the ghost child about this. I was just worried that he would act impulsively if he knew about it.
But now that things have developed to this point, I can't help but say these things.
And this is something I've always wanted to know.
Aunt Gu sighed softly, "I have indeed been lying to you about this matter, but I also have a compelling reason."
