Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Green-Skinned Imp

The structure of the room is the same as that in Wang Hua's house.

Zhang Yuan walked straight to the kitchen, and the old woman next to him grabbed him with one hand, and asked in a fierce voice: "What do you want to do when you break in inexplicably?"

Zhang Yuanyi pulled his hands off his robe with a cold expression, and said, "Old lady, you have been raising ghosts for so long, you should have harmed a lot of people." ”

The old man's face changed when he heard this, and he replied calmly: "I don't know what you're talking about. Then he pointed at the two of them with his right hand and shouted hysterically: "I will call the police and arrest you two gangsters who broke the door of the house and forcibly broke into other people's homes!"

Then he pretended to shake off the Buddha beads a few times, stared at the young man in front of him, and said viciously: "If you do such nonsense, sooner or later you will go to the eighteenth layer of hell." ”

Zhang Yuanyi did not continue to argue with the old man, but rummaged around in the kitchen, and after a while, he opened the kitchen cabinet and took out a large jar that was a foot round from it, and there were several gray charms pasted on it.

When the old lady saw this scene, she no longer cared about accusing the two, and hurriedly rushed up, wanting to snatch the jar back.

Fang Liuge, who had already entered the house just now, saw that the situation was wrong, and immediately stepped forward to stop her.

Zhang Yuanyi said coldly: "Do you still refuse to show up now?" The words fell, and the jar he held in his hand was still motionless.

As soon as Zhang Yuan raised his arms, the altar floated in the air, and he spun around, and then he pinched the trick with both hands, slapped his palm on the altar wall, and shouted: "Out!"

A puff of black smoke came out of it, condensing in front of everyone into a child, who looked about seven or eight years old.

The child had a strange layer of cyan skin, his pupils were red, the whites of his eyes were black, and his hands were clawed towards the little Taoist priest in front of him, but it was difficult to get in when he was a palm away from Zhang Yuan.

The child turned his head and wanted to pounce on Fang Liuge, but it was still the same as Fang Cai, and as soon as he took a step, he was cut off by force.

The green-skinned imp was trapped by Zhang Yuanyi with the Dao method, scratching up and down in the five-foot-wide formation, and a terrifying low roar kept coming from his mouth.

At this point, the old man sat on the ground weakly, without his previous majesty, and the Buddhist beads in his hand were scattered all over the ground, rolling everywhere in the house.

Two lines of tears flowed from her cloudy eyes, and she choked up and asked, "Can you let him go?"

Zhang Yuan squinted his eyes and said, "If I'm not mistaken, this little ghost should have nothing to do with you." ”

The old man's voice was like a mosquito: "That's right, he was a street child I adopted six years ago, and I saw that he was pitiful, and I was old and helpless, so I wanted him to accompany me, and the child happily agreed." ”

The old lady looked up at the trapped little ghost, and said with a wry smile: "But the good times didn't last long, one day when this child went to the well in the courtyard for me to fetch water, he fell down." Every time I told him, only one pot at a time was enough, he used to be very obedient, probably because he was bullied outside that day, and when he came back, he sulked, and he didn't admit defeat, and filled the whole bucket. ”

Zhang Yuanyi looked at the old man and said, "After he died, you looked around for a way, found someone to make this altar for him, and painted a few requiem talismans." As for the Buddhist exorcism charm on the door, I'm afraid it's just to hide people's eyes. ”

"Yes, I met a talented person in my early years, and I only said that he was entrusted by the deceased, and he helped me in the past by doing good deeds and accumulating virtues, eating fasting and reciting Buddha. The old man wiped the tears from his face with his dry palm.

She continued: "But I didn't expect that soon after this child became a ghost, his temperament changed greatly, not as peaceful and obedient as before, but he was angry at every turn, and his words were full of anger, once I saw blood stains on the corners of his mouth, I asked him what he ate, and he said let me leave it alone, and the next day I heard that someone had died nearby, and the corpse was eaten to the bones. ”

When the old man said this, his tears could not stop flowing, and he cried: "He pleaded with me not to find someone to get rid of him, and I couldn't bear it, so I agreed." But later, instead of restraining in the slightest, he intensified, and finally became what he is today, I am also seventy or eighty, I don't ask for anything, I just want someone to accompany me, talk, chat. ”

Zhang Yuanyi asked angrily: "Woman's benevolence, do you know how many people have died because of your momentary kindness?"

The old man also knew that he had made a big mistake at this time, and he didn't dare to raise his head with guilt, but kept crying.

Zhang Yuanyi took out a locust wood bracelet, pointed at the cyan ghost, and read in his mouth: "Enter!"

I saw that the little ghost's figure began to dissipate, no matter how much he struggled, it was to no avail, and after a few seconds, it turned into a wisp of black smoke and slowly flew into the bracelet.

Zhang Yuanyi put the bracelet back in his sleeve, picked up the jar and beckoned Fang Liuge to walk out together, and said to the old man before leaving: "For the sake of your kindness to others before, I don't care too much about you, I hope you will do it yourself well in the future." ”

Out of the door, Fang Liuge picked up the jar handed over and asked, "Lao Zhang, after this person becomes a ghost, will his personality change drastically?"

Zhang Yuanyi replied: "After becoming a wild ghost, there are many less shackles in the world, and the ugly desires that have been suppressed in my heart have a cathartic moment. If you've been bullied by a bulli, what do you want to do first thing when you become a ghost?"

Fang Liuge looked like he took it for granted, "I must have gone to him for revenge." ”

Zhang Yuan nodded and said: "That's right, most people have this mentality, but this little ghost cannibalism shouldn't be like this, when he was a street child, he experienced a lot of human suffering, and his mentality must be extraordinary." ”

He went down the stairs and walked towards the building in the southeast corner, and continued: "Later, being taken in by the old man, no matter what, it is equivalent to having a home, and it stands to reason that gratitude should be greater than hatred, but it is not so much. Moreover, listening to the old man, he was not like this at first, but suddenly changed his temperament one day. ”

"Then do you know what the hell is going on?" Fang Liuge asked curiously.

Zhang Yuanyi stood outside the door of a house, knocked on the door, and said softly: "Just ask." ”

There was no sound of walking in the house, and the door opened inexplicably.

The female ghost and old woman inside were sitting at the table, looking at the two of them and saying with a smile: "I've been waiting for you for a long time, it's finally here now, sit down, the tea is going to be cold." ”

Fang Liuge didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in the old man's gourd, for the sake of insurance, it was better to see what Zhang Daochang next to him did, anyway, he was a handicap.

Seeing Zhang Yuan sit down generously, Fang Liuge also sat down, and at the suggestion of Zhang Daochang, he put the jar on the cabinet next to the tea table.

Zhang Yuan got straight to the point and said: "Old man, the connection between this little ghost and the evil ghost in the northeast corner, I think you should know something strange, can you tell us about these two descendants." ”
