24.Chapter 24: Another game
Jiangjia Village, which is less than ten miles away from Fanjia Village in the mountainous area of northern Fujian Province, has always been quiet and comfortable, but it has recently become lively. First, after decades of singleness, Jiang Ying was introduced to a chubby wife from another province in her twenties, spent half of her life's savings, set up dozens of tables of banquets, and invited the people of the whole village. But only a few days later, Jiang Yingcai was found dead on the bed. The Jiang family called the police at that time, and the police in the county took away Jiang Yingcai's new daughter-in-law, and they didn't know what to ask. People passing by his house at night can always hear her screaming, saying that she has seen a female ghost.
Jiang Yingcai's nephew, that is, his eldest brother's son Jiang Huanghuang, is twenty years old this year, and he always likes to go to Fanjia Village to play with Luo Wencheng on weekdays. No, if there is such a big event at home, Jiang Huanghuang will not be idle. He ran back and forth to Fanjia Village twice, the first time to Luo Wencheng's absence, and the second time, he finally found Luo Wencheng playing with a little boy he didn't know in the Chenghuang Temple in Fanjia Village.
After he shouted a big brother, he ran into the City God Temple.
Luo Wencheng glanced up at Brilliant and said, "What are you doing in a hurry?" After speaking, he lowered his head and continued to play chess with the little boy.
"Brother, my uncle, my uncle is dead, it's that Jiang Guang. Jiang Huanghuang said breathlessly.
"When is he dead? Isn't he the daughter-in-law he just took it? I heard that he is still a beauty. Luo Wencheng said jokingly, with a posture that he had nothing to do with himself.
"I'm not kidding you, I'm dead, dead in my own bed. What's no one, it's just a fat woman, or a mourning star, and she started pretending to be crazy and stupid as soon as my uncle got up!" Jiang Huanghuang said angrily.
"Sanqing, you play by yourself for a while. Luo Wencheng patted the little boy's head, stood up, and pulled Jiang Huanghuang to the side. In the past few days since Li Laosan left, he has been running to the Chenghuang Temple every once in a while, taking care of his master Lao Liu Tou, who is inexplicably sick, and taking care of Li Sanqing, who has just recovered from a serious illness. So he's busier than anyone else these days.
"Call the police?" Luo Wencheng asked softly.
"I reported it, and the police said that he died of a heart attack, but my uncle has always been in good health, and it can't be a heart attack! Also, his new daughter-in-law, who is now chattering every day, always says that she has seen a ghost! Jiang Huanghuang said mysteriously.
"What the hell?" Luo Wencheng frowned and took out a cigarette.
Before Luo Wencheng could take out a cigarette, Jiang Huanghuang reached out and grabbed the cigarette case, took a cigarette and lit it, took a deep breath, and said, "Yes, I think, that house is really not clean!"
"Then what are you doing here, you should go to Guiyun Mountain to find those bald donkeys!" Luo Wencheng snatched back the cigarette and lit one for himself, without the slightest bit of big brother demeanor.
"Hey, those monks can be used for a fart! I don't want you to help invite your master Liu Lao Immortal to take a look, it's best to be able to do a magic thing to overdo it, my uncle has been a bachelor for half his life, and finally tasted the taste of a woman, just like this, it's really pitiful!" Jiang Huanghuang said seriously.
"You pull it down, my master and his old man are unwell, you better try your best to find two bald donkeys to do something. Luo Wencheng still didn't care.
"This ......" Seeing that Luo Wencheng didn't agree, Jiang Huanghuang didn't know how to carry out this conversation. He subconsciously glanced at the old Liu Tou who was sitting next to Grandpa Chenghuang meditating, and the old Liu Tou happened to open his eyes and look at Jiang Huanghuang, Jiang Huanghuang quickly withdrew his gaze and lowered his head without speaking.
"Are you from Jiangjia Village?" old Liu Tou suddenly spoke, asking knowingly.
"Yes, yes, old fairy. Jiang Huanghuang was flattered.
"Your new daughter-in-law said that she saw a ghost, has she described what the ghost looks like?" Old Liu Tou jumped down from the altar, touched the wine gourd on his waist and took a sip, and then walked to Jiang Huanghuang's side.
"That, that's not it, she just said that she saw a female ghost, yes, a female ghost. This was the first time that Jiang Huanghuang had approached Lao Liu Tou so closely, and for some reason, this sloppy old man with a lame foot turned out to be intimidating to him, and standing beside him, he felt extremely uneasy.
"Oh, that's right. Old Liu Tou said this, stretched out his hand and pinched his fingers to calculate, and then continued: "I see, it is a bad fate in a previous life. ”
"You, are you saying that there really is a female ghost in our family?" Jiang Huanghuang was creepy.
"Count, it doesn't count, it's just a fetter, you don't understand!" said Old Liu Tou faintly, and took another sip of wine.
"Don't drink all the time! You're sick and still drink all day!" At this time, Sanqing, who was staying in the corner, suddenly jumped out, pointed at Lao Liu's head with one hand on his waist and the other, and shouted loudly.
"It's okay if you don't drink it, it's okay if you don't drink it!" Seeing this, Lao Liu Tou snorted, and hurriedly hung the wine gourd back on his waist. Sanqing sat back in front of the chessboard and studied it for a long time, unable to leave
The next move.
"Old immortal, then, what should we do now, they all say that you are always an immortal, but you can save our family. This sudden strange scene did not attract Jiang Huanghuang, he gently grabbed the corner of Lao Liu's clothes and begged.
"You wait!" Old Liu Tou shook off Jiang Huanghuang, limped to the locked hut, took out a bronze key from his pocket, opened the door and locked it. After a minute or so, he came out of the house again, still holding something in his hand.
"You take this back first, hang it on the door, and I'll go to your village tomorrow." Old Liu Tou walked back to Jiang Huanghuang's side and stuffed the things in his hand into Huihuang.
Brilliant took it and saw that it was a small cloth bag, and it already had signs of mold, and I don't know how long it had been hidden in that room. He was about to open the cloth bag to see what it contained, but the back of his hand was slapped heavily by Lao Liu's head.
"Don't open it, or you'll bear the consequences!"
When Jiang Huanghuang heard this, he nodded hurriedly and held the cloth bag tightly in the palm of his hand.
"Master, do you really want to go, but your body ......," Luo Wencheng said nervously.
"It's out of the way, anyway, I haven't been out for too long, so I should take a walk and relax. Old Liu Tou said slowly.
Luo Wencheng saw that his master was firm, so he didn't say anything, and then turned to Jiang Huanghuang and yelled: "What are you doing in a daze, why don't you hurry back?"
When Jiang Huanghuang heard this, he immediately turned around and left.
Lao Liu Tou sat back next to Grandpa Chenghuang again, closed his eyes and recuperated, Luo Wencheng, returned to the edge of the chessboard, and continued to play chess with Sanqing, but the result was still the same, Sanqing was killed and did not leave a piece of armor.
"Uncle Luo, when will my dad come back?" Sanqing once again threw out the question.
"When you win against me in chess, he'll come back. Luo Wencheng said with a grin.
"Then, come again!" Sanqing said and began to play chess.
Luo Wencheng was stunned, but Old Liu Tou laughed.
