Mu Sheng rolled his eyes and said, "Why am I lying to you as a child?"

When he heard this, the look on his face immediately turned from crying to laughter, hugged Mu Sheng, and shouted with a smile: "Great, I finally don't have to go." ”

Mu Sheng said with a straight face: "You don't have to be so affectionate, right?

"Hehe, once born and twice cooked, the two of us will mature sooner or later together, do you say yes? Tan Taixin grinned.

The two were frolicking, when they suddenly saw an old woman in white emerge from the north side of the house, walking slowly with her back bent, looking very strange. The old woman approached the bed and said, "You two little ghosts are so lively, can you let the old body also participate? It's been a long time since it's been so lively!"

The two were stunned, stopped playing, and looked at the old woman who suddenly appeared. Tan Tai Xin's face showed a look of thought, and he was about to speak, but Mu Sheng grabbed his hand and shook it gently, but Tan Tai Xin didn't speak again. Mu Sheng said with a smile: "The old lady just came to join in the fun." As he spoke, he moved his ass to the side and gave the old woman a place to come out.

The old woman smiled and said, "The child's mouth is strangely sweet, and he knows how to respect my old man, not bad, not bad!"

"At home, my grandfather taught me to respect the old and love the young, which is the minimum principle of human beings. Mu Sheng said seriously.

"You kid is much better than the scholar surnamed Lu who lived in this house before, and that scholar doesn't know how to respect the old and love the young, alas!" the old woman sighed and sat down on the edge of the bed.

"My mother-in-law is really healthy, and she doesn't even need to use a crutch!" said Tan Taixin on the side.

"This kid's mouth is so sweet, but it's a pity that my mother-in-law didn't bring candy and couldn't give it to you. The old woman laughed.

"Then what is the mother-in-law coming to play with us?" asked Mu Sheng, with a roll of his eyes.

"Ahem, ahem. The old woman coughed twice and said, "Shuanglu and Liubo, can you two play?"

Mu Sheng nodded, but Taixin shook his head, and the old woman smiled: "I forgot, children don't know how to play these gambling games, it's a bit difficult, what should I play?"

Mu Sheng proposed: "Why don't we play a game of guessing, what do you think, mother-in-law?"

The old woman thought for a moment and said, "It's okay, then you can come up with the question first." ”

"It's not a human or a ghost, it's changing, I don't know what this thing is?" Mu Sheng looked at the old woman with a smile.

When the old woman heard Mu Sheng ask this, her face changed greatly: "It turns out that you already know the identity of the old woman and me, and you are not afraid of mortals, and you are brave enough." ”

As he spoke, his hands and feet were suddenly broken, scattered on the ground and on the bed, and he looked at the old woman in surprise, and the old woman smiled: "Aren't you afraid of this?"

As he spoke, his head suddenly broke, fell to the ground and rolled around a few times, and after he stood still, his eyes were still looking at the two of them, and he laughed: "Two little ghosts, aren't you afraid that I will eat you?"

Tan Tai Xin was shocked, and was about to get out of bed to kick the old woman's head away, Mu Sheng held Tan Tai Xin's hand, let him calm down for a while, and looked at the old woman's head on the ground with a smile and said: "Don't blame the monster for self-defeat! What is there to be afraid of, if you want to kill us, you will have already killed our two mortals with your ability, since you didn't do anything with us, I think you don't want to kill us, or you can't kill us, no matter which of these two situations, we don't need to be afraid." ”

The head laughed and said, "What a smart boy." As he spoke, his head changed into a little old woman, and the other hands, feet, and bodies that fell on the ground and on the bed also changed into little old women, except for the shorter ones, the others were no different from the previously manifested Buddha-figures.

The old women in the room laughed and said, "Since you have seen through the hiding, then I will give you a creation, if you can find my body, you will also be rich." ”

After finishing speaking, several old women gathered in one place, and then joined into an old woman, the old woman leaned on her back and seemed to be slow, but in fact she quickly retreated to the north corner of the wall, and suddenly lost her place.

Tan Taixin watched the old woman disappear in horror and asked, "Brother Mu, is that mother-in-law a strange ......person just now?"

Mu Sheng glanced at Taixin and said, "Why don't you say it's a human or a ghost?"

Tan Taixin shook his head and said, "I didn't find any ghost qi on her, so it shouldn't be a ghost." I don't have much contact with people, but I don't feel like she's a human being, so I don't know what kind of spirit she is?"

Mu Sheng smiled and said: "It doesn't matter what she is, in short, now you and I can't do anything with her, why don't we sleep, and then think about the origin of this old lady when we wake up." ”

Yu Taixin nodded, quickly got into the quilt, and soon fell asleep. Mu Sheng smiled and shook his head, saying in his heart that children sleep so fast, they can fall asleep when they lie down, but they don't pretend to be troubled in their hearts!

The next morning, Ah Lian's brother sent breakfast, Mu Sheng took the breakfast, thinking that there was no firewood and no fire at home on a snowy day, it was very cold, and he just paid it back, but there was no way to keep out the cold, so he asked Ah Lian's brother Ah Hu to send some firewood and other things, afraid that the gold ingots given yesterday would not be enough, and took out a piece of silver ingots and stuffed them to Ah Hu.

Ah Hu hurriedly excused himself and said, "I'm afraid that the gold that the little brother gave yesterday won't be able to spend it, how dare you accept your silver again." ”

Mu Shengdao: "Take it, just keep it in your account first, and let you send more things in the future." ”

Ah Hu said that he would not accept Mu Sheng's money anymore, and Mu Sheng had no choice but to put the silver ingots back in his sleeve. Ah Hu stepped back on the snow, and went to prepare firewood and other things for Mu Sheng and sent them over.

However, in addition to asking for firewood, kettles and other things, Mu Sheng also asked Ah Hu to send him a hoe and a shovel, Ah Hu was very puzzled, this will be winter, and it is not the spring cultivation season, why do you want these two things? Mu Sheng smiled, only said that it was useful, but did not answer.

When Ah Hu brought the firewood and other things, the food he had delivered earlier was already cold, and Ah Hu helped Mu Sheng to light the stove in the house before leaving. Until Ah Hu left, Tai Xin was still asleep in bed and did not wake up. Mu Sheng had no choice but to give him breakfast and heat it on the stove.

Seeing that the new Tai Tai had not woken up, Mu Sheng thought about it carefully, the place where the old woman disappeared yesterday seemed to be on the north side of the house, if he dug up there, would he be able to know what was going on?

Thinking of this, Mu Sheng happily took out the hoe and shovel, and prepared to excavate. At this time, Yutai woke up, put on the cotton robe given by Mu Sheng yesterday, and walked into the kitchen with his shoes pulled.

"Did you sleep well?" asked Mu Sheng with a smile.
