Chapter 126: The Man in the Grave
As he spoke, the stone man dragged me away.
I hurriedly said, "There is danger here at night, you want to trick me." If you want to say it, just say no now?"
Shiren sneered: "Hmph, I want to know this secret, how can I do it without paying a price." Don't worry, with Lao Tzu here, you can't die. ”
The stone man ignored me and dragged me back.
After I went back, I found that the daughter of the old Zhao family was sitting on the steps of the door, and her expression seemed to be a little angry.
I smiled helplessly, and walked up to apologize to the little girl: "Little girl, you're still angry." ”
The little girl looked at me a little bored: "Well, angry." ”
I rummaged through my pockets, took out a hundred dollars from my pocket, and handed it to the little girl: "Go, buy some candy to eat, and I will apologize to you." ”
The little girl shook her head, and her big bright eyes stared at me burningly.
I was a little embarrassed by what she saw, so I asked, "What do you think I do?"
The little girl asked, "Are you very good at fighting?" ”
I hesitated: "Normally, you ask me what I am doing." ”
The little girl said, "Then you must be able to beat those little things." ”
I said, "I don't even know what that little thing is, how can I be sure if I can beat it." ”
"Why don't you tell me what the hell that is......
The little girl shook her head: "Grandpa Shi won't let you tell you." ”
Sometimes Grandpa Shi.
The little girl continued: "I think you will definitely be able to fight, Grandpa Shi said, the whole village is not your opponent combined. ”
"Do you want to stay in the village? If you stay in the village, then even if Grandpa Shi leaves, you can help us deal with that little thing. ”
After a pause, the little girl suddenly blushed and stammered, "Of course...... If you want to be my son-in-law...... I...... I would too. ”
I couldn't stop crying and laughing.
What does this little girl think?
Of course I'm not going to stay, and when I come, I still have a heavy burden on my shoulders.
Second, I already have a sweetheart, and that is the spring spirit.
Although this little girl is very beautiful and gentle and kind, she is much younger than me, and I have no interest in her at all.
I smiled dismally, "I'm sorry, I can't promise you this, because I still have important things to do." ”
The little girl sighed in disappointment: "Well, well, I knew you wouldn't stay." ”
"You dare to scold Grandpa Shi on the street, you are definitely not an ordinary person, you are a person who does great things, how can you stay in this small village. ”
After saying that, the little girl left in despair.
I smiled sadly and prepared to go back to rest.
But at this time, I found the stone people banging in the courtyard.
Curious, I went up and found the stone man pounding a pile of wood.
I didn't expect the stone man, a rough man, to be quite ingenious, and a large pile of rotten wood in his hands turned into exquisite puppets, wooden cars and boats, very vivid.
Is this old thing still interested in tinkering with this thing?
I asked curiously.
The stone man glared at me: "I can use it at night." ”
Seeing that the stone man was not ready to explain to me the purpose of these wooden toys, I went back to rest.
As soon as it got dark, there was no one on the street. The villagers went back to their homes, the gates were closed, and the lights were turned off.
After the little girl locked the door of her house, she brought me a string of cannonballs.
"If you hear movement outside the door at night, don't open it. If the knock continues, you light this string of firecrackers and throw them out the door, and you can scare the little thing away. ”
I asked curiously, "What if I open the door?" ”
The little girl's expression suddenly darkened: "The second uncle next door opened the door, and then ......"
Open the door, and that little thing will kill someone.
I nodded solemnly: "Well, I see." ”
At about nine o'clock, Shiren suddenly put a large pile of toys into his baggage, shouldered the baggage, and dragged me to go outside.
I knew the stone man was going to take me to that grave.
I immediately broke free of the stone man's arm: "I'm not going, there's danger there." ”
The stone man glared at me angrily: "You must go, if you don't go, Lao Tzu will kill you." ”
"Okay, you have the ability to kill me. I said coldly.
But the stone man stopped talking nonsense with me, pulled me up and walked out of the firewood room, no matter how much I struggled, it would be useless.
Looks like we have to take an adventure today.
Unexpectedly, the little girl was outside the firewood room and happened to see the two of us.
After learning that Shiren was going to take me to the grave, the little girl suddenly became nervous: "Grandpa Shi, he ...... It's going to be fine. ”
Shiren laughed and said, "Girl, are you interested in this little bastard?" ”
The little girl suddenly blushed with shame and quickly shook her head.
Shiren said: "Don't worry, girl, I promise to bring him back alive." When the time comes, I will let this kid marry you and be your son-in-law. ”
The little girl did not speak again.
Shi Sheng dragged me hard and took me to the deserted mansion.
In the middle of the night, the deserted house was pitch black, and it looked even more eerie.
The stone man threw the burden to me: "Go to that grave and play with toys." ”
I suspect I misheard: "What? Let me go to that grave and play with toys? What are you kidding?" ”
Shiren said, "I'm not kidding you, I'll have to let you bring out the little things inside." ”
"Don't worry, with Lao Tzu here, you can't die. ”
"Don't go. I refused without hesitation: "You are using me as bait, why don't you go yourself." ”
Shiren said: "Lao Tzu is a lot older, and playing with toys in front of the grave is like talking." ”
I was immediately amused by him: "Lao Tzu is not young anymore, and he has long stopped playing with such low-level toys." It's appropriate for me to play with toys at the grave? No one in the world dares to play with toys in front of the grave. ”
Shiren glared: "Do you want to go?" If you don't go, Lao Tzu will blow your head out." ”
As he spoke, the stone man was ready to move.
I really had no choice but to take the toy and go to the grave.
The stone man dug in the grave for a moment, and finally dug out a dagger from it.
The length of the palm of the dagger had long since rusted on the surface, but I noticed that there were some strange patterns engraved on the handle of the dagger, which should be some kind of charm.
The stone man said: "This dagger has been holding that little thing below for more than forty years. Now that most of the repressive force is gone, it's no wonder that little thing sneaks out. ”
"Later that little thing will come out of it and gather around you...... Because they are all children, they are more interested in these toys. ”
"If you feel that there are more people behind you, don't act rashly, or you may die. ”
