Chapter 47: The Female Ghost Doll
Chapter 47: The Female Ghost Doll
A few days later, it was Chinese New Year's Eve.
That night, in the Captain's Mansion in the south of Guanping City, Tian Zhen, the captain of the guard, went straight to the study in the backyard after eating the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner and settling the family servants.
Because it was the end of Chinese New Year's Eve, the whole house was busy all day, and the people went to rest, and the whole backyard seemed quiet, without the noise of the day.
The light in the study was still on at this time, and Tian Zhen pushed the door and walked in. I saw that in the study, a man was holding a yellowed old book, sitting on the ground under the bookshelf in the study, and watching with relish by the lamplight.
This man is the original little guard Liu Yang, and now he has got his wish and has been promoted by Lord Tian Zhen to become the chief guard of the Nancheng Guard's Mansion.
When Liu Yang saw Tian Zhen coming in, he hurriedly got up from the ground, knelt down and saluted, and said with sincere fear: "I was fascinated by the despicable sins, and when the adults came, I didn't know ......."
Tian Zhen nodded to Liu Yang, motioned for him to get up, and said, "What are you looking at?"
Liu Yang held the book in his hand with both hands and handed it to Tian Zhen.
"Not bad... Not bad... Not bad... I didn't think you would read this book, do you understand?" Tian Zhen read this book, which was a copy of "The Outline of Military Training" that he had collected in his early years, and he couldn't help but be a little impressed by the somewhat unscrupulous man in front of him.
"Back to the words of the adult, I only understand a few things, but in many places, I still don't understand very much..."Liu Yang was praised by Tian Zhen's three consecutive 'good', and he was a little dizzy and a little excited.
"This "Military Training Outline", I don't know who left it, when I was young, when I traveled to Huichuan, I saw a blind old man, selling this book on the street. On a whim, I spent twenty taels of gold and bought it back..."Tian Zhen rubbed the yellowed old book, his eyes flashing with memories of his youth.
"Twenty taels of gold...... Liu Yang looked at the broken book, and asked for twenty taels of gold, which was his own fifty years of money!
"Why is this book not worth it?" Tian Zhen looked at him with a confused look and smiled.
Liu Yang touched his forehead and said curtly: "If you go back to the adult, I don't know if it's worth the humble position, but what is said in it is really quite reasonable......
"It's worth it or not, what does it matter, as long as you like it. If you like it, take it back and read it, and if you don't understand anything, you can ask me......"
Liu Yang took this valuable broken book, and he was a little excited in his heart. Regardless of whether it was really worth twenty taels of gold or not, the Lord Captain was willing to reward himself, even if it was worthless, it would be a great honor.
"Thank you, sir......" Liu Yang put the book in the shirt on his chest, and after tidying up Zhou Zheng, he bowed his head and was about to bow to Tian Zhenxing.
Tian Zhen waved his hand and said, "At the end of today's year, I called you to come because there is something for you to do tomorrow..." Then, he said, "Tomorrow, I must send this to Lin Lao's Mansion... Remember... As before, don't be discovered!"
"Yes..."Liu Yang didn't know why Lord Shouwei did this every time, and let him send him a token secretly, although he couldn't figure it out, but as Tian Zhen, who had the grace of promoting himself, he didn't dare to have any dissent.
"It must be delivered tomorrow, there must be no mistakes..."Tian Zhen watched Liu Yang put the bamboo tube close to his body, and then admonished.
At the end, Tian Zhen also specially asked Liu Yang about his recent situation and asked him how he should spend the Spring Festival. He knew that Liu Yang was a single person and a child with a hard life.
"Back to my lord, after the family property was occupied by my uncle's family, my father and mother passed away, and I live alone every year... It doesn't feel interesting, and I plan to stay in the house this year and wait for the adult's punishment..."
"It's rare for the New Year, you will stay in the house to eat and live these days, and after finishing your business tomorrow, go to your parents' graves and burn some paper money......"
"Yes..."Liu Yang solemnly kowtowed to Tian Zhen, his eyes moistened.
"What are you crying about, a manly husband can bend and stretch, and when he has the opportunity in the future, he will take back what belongs to him, it will be good..."Tian Zhen helped Liu Yang up and led him to the window of the study.
The two sat down and began to drink and talk, all of which were trivial things in Guanping City.
Drinking and chatting, Liu Yang felt that his eyes were shaking, he raised his head, and was suddenly surprised to find that in the courtyard outside the window, there was a female doll wearing a red short shirt, who was standing on the wall with agility, and a harrier turned over, swished, and jumped into the yard.
How can a young female doll be able to jump over the wall and jump over the eaves? On this dark night, jumping into someone's yard is certainly not a good person! Moreover, how can an ordinary female doll have such skills, and such a high wall cannot stop her!
If something goes wrong, there must be a demon. What happened next made Liu Yang unforgettable for the rest of his life.
I saw that the female doll, after turning over and standing in the yard, a strange smile appeared on her pretty face, and suddenly, from a distance, she stretched out her hand and grabbed Tian Zhen's head like lightning.
How long can a person's arm be! It stands to reason that from such a distance, it is absolutely impossible to touch Tian Zhen's body. But what happened next made Liu Yang break out in a cold sweat.
The height of the female doll was not more than half a foot, but her arms stretched longer and longer, as if they could be extended infinitely, until they reached a distance of six or seven feet. Seeing that she grabbed Tian Zhen's hair, she dragged him from the couch by the window to the ground in the courtyard.
Tian Zhen was caught off guard, let out a miserable scream, and the cotton hat on his head was torn off, and he didn't know where to go. The whole person fell to the ground with his hair scattered, motionless, so that others did not know whether he was dead or alive for a while.
The girl doll saw that she had hit it, and her voice was sharpened, and she laughed again. The laughter was clear, disturbing, and like a sharp weapon, scraping people's eardrums, it sounded so mad!
After a moment, she turned her face to Liu Yang again. Then, the white miserable claws stretched out, closer and closer, closer and closer......
Liu Yang was so frightened that he didn't dare to move. It was only when the hand with the pointed nails came to him that he came to his senses, and in a hurry, he had to cover it with the flask in his hand.
Left grabbed left block, right grabbed right block, two people passed a few moves. The female doll saw that she couldn't succeed for a while, so she left Liu Yang, dragged Tian Zhen, and ran away towards the courtyard gate.
The female doll was simply powerful, Tian Zhen was dragged to the ground, no matter how he struggled, his face was called the slate bricks on the ground, and the flowers were scraped off, and the blood was dripping, which made him cry out in pain.
Obviously, he just fainted, and at this time he was woken up by pain.
The family members in the Captain's Mansion heard Tian Zhen's cry and ran out to see. I happened to see the corner of Tian Zhen's clothes, flashing at the door, and Liu Yang who was stumbling and stumbling behind him. I can guess that something unexpected must have happened. And the people did not hesitate any longer, and followed after them, and pursued them.
The female doll didn't look back, and directly dragged the guard Tian Zhen to a deserted house on the street. The family members in the back shouted while running, which shocked the residents on the street and came out to watch.
Looking further, a five or six-year-old female doll, her arms were almost stretched into noodles, and her slender hands, like flying a kite, were holding an unkempt person with a bloody face, and the person did not know whether he was dead or alive.
Such a scene is really weird. They wanted to see what was going on, and they joined the chase.
The female doll saw that there were too many people, and she didn't dare to fight, so she let go of her hand and threw Tian Zhen aside, while she calmly cut her hair, jumped on the wall of the deserted house, and disappeared.
When everyone was panting and surrounded them, they saw Tian Zhen covered in bruises and blood. I don't know what's going on, but there is an extra blood hole more than an inch in the chest, and the person has already had no breath.
Someone in the Captain's Mansion knew some medical science, so he squatted down, pinched and pressed, and tossed for a long time, Tian Zhen was still angry, and the person was still unconscious.
Two men of great strength came forward, put him in the middle, and carried him back. After returning to the Captain's Mansion, he let him lie flat on the couch and poured some medicine, but after a long time, he did not wake up.
Looking at Tian Zhen, who was covered in blood, his face was as pale as snow, and the whole person seemed to have suddenly aged to the extreme, obviously a dead man.
Everyone was full of sadness, and Mrs. Tian and some other female dependents cried and choked on the spot.
"This is so decent, how can this be! You can't leave us orphans and widows behind..."
Suddenly, the house was full of mourning. Before dawn, Chinese New Year's Eve had not passed! Tian Zhen, who was the head of the family, suddenly suffered this catastrophe, and for them, the blow was as huge as the sky had fallen.
Just in the house of the captain of the south city of Guanping City, when the family members and subordinates were mourning, Liu Yang was still on the street, chasing the frightened female doll.
At this time, he carried a waist knife that he had just snatched while he was in chaos, looking for the direction in which the female doll disappeared, all the way to the west, looking for it.
At the end of Chinese New Year's Eve, the streets at night were empty. Liu Yang also climbed the eaves of a family with the strength of wine, wanting to climb high and look into the distance to see the figure of the female doll.
"Giggle..."
A little doll with clear eyebrows and delicate cuteness. Suddenly, he appeared on an eaves not far from him, still smiling at him.
That smile is like a breeze blowing, as if it can make new green shoots emerge from the peach blossoms and willows that are beginning to bloom, which makes Liu Yang feel like a spring breeze. It's so beautiful, it's still immature, and it's fresh and shy. However, it is that little bit of red, some bit of green, that makes people's eyes shine suddenly.
After a glimpse, the heart flower is in full bloom.
This female doll is not only good-looking, but also born to be beautiful, so that people can't give birth to the slightest malice.
If there was no previous encounter, maybe Liu Yang would have been bewitched by this female doll. But at this time, when he saw it, it was as if he had been bitten by a snake and scorpion, and his whole body was numb. A kind of horror from the bottom of his heart made him almost lose his footing and almost fall down.
"Who are you?" Liu Yang endured the horror in his heart, holding the waist knife in his hand, and the clothes on his back were already soaked.
The doll didn't answer him, just looked at him and smiled, as if she was watching some joke.
Liu Yang was seen by the female doll, her scalp was numb, and her body shook violently.
"Ahh
Liu Yang lifted the knife and jumped up, and the others had already reached the roof where the female doll was standing.
It's too late, it's too late.
Suddenly, a white light flashed, and the waist knife reflected a cold light, which had slashed at the female doll's immature neck.
