Chapter 7: A Hundred Ghosts Walk at Night
The fortune teller calls himself a noble son and has been practicing fortune-telling for decades. He has never seen such a great virtue as the Pang family, he said that the ancestors of the Pang family have accumulated virtue, and good fortune came to find them. Ask their father if he is free from illness and in good health.
Pang Zhijin thought about it, his father Pang Zhu was not to mention that he was sick, even colds and coughs rarely occurred, and he was in his sixties, and he was healthy and climbed the stairs without asthma.
After confirming this matter, Gao Chongzi said that Pang Zhu was chosen by good fortune, and God wanted to take him to be an immortal, but his longevity was too high, so he had not been able to return to heaven. If you help him, you will definitely be able to make Pang Zhu soar day by day.
At first, Pang Zhijin didn't believe it, how could he let his father die early. But after coming back and asking Pang Zhu, I learned that their ancestors had a county magistrate, who was a well-known Qing official at that time. In this way, the husband and wife began to believe in the matter of good fortune and ascension to immortals.
According to Gao Chongzi's instructions, they wrote Pang Zhu's birth date on paper. Then I made a lotus lantern, put the eight characters on the lotus lantern, and let the river wash away on time at twelve o'clock in the middle of the night.
He changed Pang Zhu's red clothes again, and covered his room with statues to protect him.
That night, Pang Zhu shouted that his ears hurt, and Pang Zhijin followed what Gao Chongzi said, where it hurts, use cinnabar, so he sealed Pang Zhu's ears with cinnabar.
The next day, Pang Zhu shouted that his nose hurt again, and Pang Zhu used the same method to light cinnabar. Then there are the mouth and eyes. After the order, Pang Zhu fell down and never woke up again.
Pang Zhijin also panicked, for fear that Pang Zhu would die, but when he saw Pang Zhu's glowing face, he believed in Gao Chongzi even more.
After Pang Zhijin finished speaking, I thought it was ridiculous, this person who was bent on making his father an immortal actually harmed Pang Zhu with his own hands, but he couldn't easily say it now, for fear of alarming Gao Chongzi's evil way.
After understanding what happened and knowing where Gao Chongzi lived, my father went out that night, leaving me with He Cong at Pang Zhijin's house.
I couldn't sleep at night, sitting at the head of the bed, looking at Pang Zhu's room, with mixed feelings in my heart. Suddenly I heard a noise in the room, and with curiosity, I walked out of the room.
It was pitch black in the hallway, and my heart pounded with every step I took, after all, that room was a scarier thing than hell to me.
Pang Zhu's room was not closed tightly, revealing a crack in the door. I posted it to see it more clearly, and what I saw made me shudder.
The portraits of the gods on the wall turned into hideous ghosts, they sucked Pang Zhu's seven orifices, and white light was sucked from Pang Zhu's body into the ghost's mouth.
Pang Zhu's face turned iron-blue, revealing a painful expression. I couldn't resist pushing the door in, but my mouth was covered by a hand behind me, and one arm wrapped around me and took me aside.
Through the moonlight, I saw where the other person was. He motioned for me not to speak, pointed to my room, and led me inside.
Closing the door, He Cong's face was a little ugly.
"Do you know how dangerous it is just now? Those are all powerful ghosts who can kill you at any time, if they find out and report it to Gao Chongzi in time, our plan will be over. ”
Although He Cong suppressed his voice, I could hear that his voice was full of worry and anger.
"I'm sorry I didn't think about it, but I really can't stand it. I just need to think that Old Man Pang is in so much pain at the moment, I want to go in and kill those ghosts. ”
In retrospect, it was true that I was too reckless.
He Cong breathed a sigh of relief, "Don't worry, when Master Yun comes back, we will have a solution." ”
There was a sound of going upstairs outside the door, it was Pang Zhijin who closed the supermarket and came up to rest. He Cong and I immediately silenced, wanting to wait for Pang Zhijin to return to the room.
Who knew that he, Pang Zhijin, didn't go back to the room, but turned on the TV in the living room and watched the national football team.
He Cong and I looked at each other awkwardly, in the dead of night, we were in the same room, it didn't seem to be very suitable. But Pang Zhijin is outside, and when he goes out at this time, he can't explain it.
We just sat on the edge of the bed, and the other stood at the door, staring at each other for a long time, the TV was still on, looking at this, Pang Zhijin was going to watch all night.
I feel that my head is big, and I don't want to talk about lonely men and widows in the middle of the night. I don't know him at all, and I don't know his details, what if he is the enemy of our Mo family? I fell asleep in the middle of the night, and he clicked me with a knife, who should I go to to cry out?
No, you can't sleep, you have to wait until he's gone before sleeping.
I took out my phone and played boringly with cutting fruit, but he was honest, leaning against the door and not moving. It was quiet outside the window, and the shouting in the living room was obvious, and after waiting for a while, he opened the door.
I was so scared that I didn't hold it, and the phone fell to the ground, what was he going to do? Go out at this time? What does Pang Zhijin think?
Luckily, he just looked outside, quickly closed the door again, and he walked over to my bed.
I'm inexplicably nervous, although you are very handsome, but I am not a casual person.
"I thought he was asleep, but I didn't expect to be actually watching. Let me sit for a while, my legs are sore. ”
He Cong sat on the bed as he spoke, and after he found my phone on the ground, he picked it up for me very thoughtfully. But because I played for too long, the battery was already out, so I could only put it at the bedside to recharge.
The two of us sat side by side on the edge of the bed, each hearing each other's breathing, but not knowing what to say.
"Aren't you sleepy, or you go to sleep, and I'll keep watch over you." ”
He turned his head and asked me.
Guard, guard, what? Now in my opinion, the most dangerous thing is you.
"I'm not sleepy, I can sit a little longer. ”
I answered him softly.
You have to hold on, you can't sleep!
He Cong said "oh" and did not speak, his eyes were like a shining star in the middle of the night.
"Are you yin and yang, what do you see?" I couldn't help but ask him.
"I see the world you can't see, but I can't say it now, as the saying goes, don't talk about people during the day, and don't talk about ghosts at night. If we say them now, they can sense that in a moment the room will be full of those things. ”
"Then don't talk about it. "I just feel a chill in my back.
He Cong smiled, his teeth were also bright.
I don't know when I fell asleep, but by the time I woke up, it was already dawn outside. And I was lying in bed without any image. He didn't seem to have moved all night. Still in the same position as last night, sitting motionless on the bed. His eyes were closed, and I could see his long eyelashes. A man has such long eyelashes, like a woman.
I moved my legs and woke him up.
"Are you awake?" He Cong's voice is very good, especially in the morning, lazy and a touch of clarity.
"You wouldn't have slept all night sitting last night, would you?
I kind of admired him.
He smiled: "It's nothing, I'm used to it." ”
Habits? Does he usually sit and sleep? What a weirdo.
He Cong opened the door and looked at it, and turned back to me.
"It's okay to come out, no one. ”
Watching He Cong go out, I was a little confused, what is this, how did it look like what happened.
When my father came out of the house, he was also a little shocked when he saw me coming out with He Cong, and he grabbed me and asked me if He Cong had bullied me.
I promised him that if this boy was not honest, I would not let him see the sun tomorrow. Father is relieved.
During breakfast, Pang Zhijin asked me when I could have a banquet, and I told him that it would be okay tonight, and after saying some things to prepare, he drove out to buy them.
My father said that he wanted to see the surroundings, so he took me out with him. We arrived at a river in the town, which was less crowded and had a good environment.
"It's going to be a chef tonight, I really don't understand anything, what should I do?" I was a little timid.
But my father didn't care, "Tonight, chef, you don't need to leave your soul. I'll give you the side dishes, and you can take the spoon. I got some black dog blood last night and added some food to them, and when they are injured, we can force Gao Chongzi to show up, as long as Gao Chongzi shows up, he will definitely not be able to escape. What their evil cultivators are most afraid of is also the blood of the black dog, and when the time comes, splashing it on him like this is equivalent to asking him for half his life, and we can use the soul attraction lamp to lure him out of the soul of Pang Zhu, so that Pang Zhu will be saved. ”
Listening to what my father said was very powerful, I was worried about whether it would be completed smoothly.
"If I say that I can still have a way to deal with those wandering ghosts, if you want to deal with Gao Chongzi, I may not be able to help. ”
He said disappointedly.
"Why can't you help? You have to help with the side dishes, and the work of splashing black dog blood is also yours. ”
The father smiled mysteriously and continued, "We all have roots and mana, and we can't escape the eyes of Gao Chongzi. He will guard against us, but you are different, you just have yin and yang eyes, without any evil bones, he will be negligent to you, and then you will be unprepared. ”
He Cong nodded: "That Lixin helped me listen to the hundred ghosts in case I needed it." If I take it with me, it will attract the attention of Gao Chongzi. ”
"Why do I take it? I don't know how to use it, this thing won't recognize its owner, right?" I heard that the treasures all recognize the Lord.
"Yes, it recognizes its owner, so it's up to you to keep it, and it's all yours sooner or later anyway. ”
He Cong smiled, as if he was teasing me, this sentence seemed to me to be a complete joke.
In the evening, the Pang family made a big pomp, the whole courtyard was full of wine tables, I pretended to look at the ingredients in the back kitchen, and my father and He Cong had a decent way of cutting vegetables.
The Pang family asked a few neighbors to help and made the house very lively. It was the first time for a mortal to become an immortal, and many people seemed very excited.
In addition to being nervous, I was also a little scared. In order to better complete the plan, my father temporarily opened a ghost eye for me, which means that I can also see ghosts, and if I see a ghost breaking into the kitchen, it is not a horror. He breathed a sigh of relief and comforted himself not to be afraid. The underworld has gone, and I'm afraid of what a few wandering ghosts will do.
Today's dishes are very simple, I buy home-cooked food, and my father asks me to play at a normal level. As for the black dog's blood, he had already soaked it in corpse oil, and every time he added it to the dish, those wild ghosts wouldn't see anything at all.
Stir-frying is not an easy job, I just did a few of them, I felt that my arm hurt, and my father said that I didn't master the secret of ghost cooking, so I struggled so hard.
All the dishes are stir-fried and placed on the table. The three of us also walked out of the kitchen and into the yard.
The Pang family made it very grand and invited all the ancestral tablets out. A red cloth was placed on each seat, making it very solemn.
I looked at those tablets and thought to myself, where are your ancestors here to eat, they are all lonely ghosts.
After a while, a gust of wind blew, and I heard a commotion outside the door, and I couldn't help but look around. Good guy, where did all this stuff come from? It's a hundred ghosts walking at night.
When my father saw this scene, his face was full of shock and solemnity, "No, how can this be?"
He pulled my clothes and asked softly, "Did you bring it with you?"
"No, I put it under the pillow in my room. "I kind of regret why I didn't hold it at all times.
Obviously, it was a few wild ghosts under Gao Chongzi, and it suddenly turned into a mighty hundred ghosts at night, and I panicked all of a sudden, it seems that tonight is in a catastrophe.
