Chapter 12: Night of Horror
Ah Hua and Ah Biao came back quickly, and they stood at the door with large and small bags, hesitating and not daring to enter.
"Come in, what are you doing standing outside?"
Zhang Ling walked through the body of a geist to the door, smiling at the two of them with a frightened face.
"That, great, master, are you really sure it's going to be okay?"
Although Ah Hua was born in the army, when he encounters something like a ghost that he can't see or touch, and is scared from childhood to adulthood, that fear is deep-rooted.
"Don't worry, I'm here, you don't have to be afraid!"
Zhang Ling glanced at the little ghost who was lying on Ah Hua's shoulder with a bare buttocks, and comforted with a smile
The two looked at each other, pretending to be bold and walked into the courtyard, they had just entered the courtyard, a gust of mountain wind blew, and the door behind them creaked shut, and the frightened two trembled, almost throwing out the lunch box in their hands.
Looking at the ghostly mansion, Ah Hua suddenly felt that Zhang Ling's smile was also a little eerie, and he beckoned like those ghosts who hooked the soul.
Compared with Ah Hua's fright, Ah Biao seems much calmer, he is a nervous person, although he is also very in awe of these ghosts and gods, but he firmly believes in one thing, he is not afraid of ghosts calling the door if he does not do bad things.
He took two steps with his lunch box, looked back at Ah Hua, who was still standing at the door, and said, "Let's go, do you have an egg standing there?" ”
Walking into the hall of the Lu family's ancestral house, this place has been cleaned up, except for some floating dust, everything is placed properly, and there is no sense of clutter.
Lighting up the chandelier in the living room, Zhang Ling couldn't help but look at this ancient old mansion, where all the Chinese furniture is placed, Bogu shelves, eight immortal tables, and mahogany high-backed chairs......
It is not difficult to see that the owner here is a very traditional person, and he is not like the imitation European furnishing layout of the big families in the middle and late Republic of China.
After watching for a while, he and Ah Hua sat down at the round mahogany table with a marble countertop, took out the lunch boxes from their pockets and put them on the table.
Suddenly, those fast food boxes and the elegant atmosphere around them immediately formed a strong contrast.
"Master, there are nothing too good in the small place here, our brothers try to pick up some fresh mountain vegetables and game for you, please bear with me if you have any neglect!"
When Zhang Ling heard this, he hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Brother Ahua, you are too polite, this is already very rich, by the way, what about the pig-killing knife I want?" ”
"Here's it!"
Ah Biao took out a sharp knife from a black plastic bag, and judging by the wear and tear of the blade, it did look like it had been used many times.
"This is what we got from the butcher in the town, and the turtle son is really black-hearted, just such a broken knife insisted on asking for five hundred yuan, if it wasn't for the reimbursement......"
"Ahem!"
Hearing Ah Hua's cough, Ah Biao realized his gaffe and hurriedly closed his mouth.
Zhang Ling smiled and took the pig-killing knife and put it into his broken canvas bag and said with a smile: "I think you two are a few years older than me, why don't we just be brothers, I call you eldest brother, how about you call me brother?!" ”
Ah Hua was just about to speak, Ah Biao preemptively smiled and said: "Okay, Brother Ah Ling, my Da Biao likes a refreshing person like you, come on, let's have two drinks today!" ”
"Okay!"
Zhang Ling took the liquor bottle handed over by A Biao, opened the cap and touched it with him, drank two big sips, and laughed loudly: "What a sweet wine!" ”
Zhang Ling's boldness and calmness relaxed Ah Hua's tense nerves, and he grabbed the wine bottle and shouted, "Okay, Brother Ah Ling, let's have a good drink today!" ”
After three rounds of wine and five flavors, Ah Hua and Ah Biao's words gradually increased, they tore off the tie around their necks, and boasted about their glorious history.
Zhang Ling didn't say much, just a quiet listener, and from time to time he also praised a few sentences, which made the two even more proud.
Gradually, the few bottles of wine that Ah Biao bought back bottomed out, and the two guys slowly slid from the chairs under the table.
Zhang Ling stood up shakingly and dragged the two guys onto the Luohan bed in the side hall, a burst of alcohol surging up, and his consciousness became a little blurred.
So he pushed the two of them to the side, and also lay down on the spacious Luohan bed, and fell asleep a few minutes later.
Sleeping until midnight, Ah Hua was awakened by urine, he rubbed his somewhat stinging forehead and sat up, he listened to the snoring sound next to him and looked around the dark surroundings, he lay down again, he didn't dare to go to the toilet alone.
But after a few minutes, Ah Hua was really suffocated and about to burst, he shook Ah Biao awake and said, "Hey, get up, get up, accompany me to the toilet!" ”
"Go, go, go!"
Ah Biao turned over and was about to fall asleep, so Ah Hua pulled him up and whispered, "Don't sleep, hurry up and follow me!" ”
Ah Biao scolded and followed Ah Hua in a daze, at this time his strength had not yet passed, and his steps were a little frivolous.
It was late at night, and the bright moonlight poured into the room through the wooden window, and the two of them walked in the direction of the toilet by the moonlight.
But when they reached the parlor where they had just eaten, they heard a snap, and a cup fell from the table to the ground and shattered, and the crisp sound sounded particularly harsh in the quiet of the night.
Ah Hua's face became paler and paler, and he even felt some kind of liquid flowing out of his crotch.
Suddenly, a vague figure appeared on the wooden window, it was a woman dressed in white, she slowly raised her head, and a pale and distorted face appeared in front of the two of them.
Ah Hua immediately screamed in fright, and a stream of yellow liquid flowed out of his trouser tube, and Ah Biao was also drunk by the grimace, he pulled Ah Hua and ran back.
But as soon as they turned around, an old and shriveled human face appeared in front of the two of them, yes, only one face.
Just as the two of them sat down on the ground in fright, the table next to them also began to vibrate, and the white lunch boxes all shook to the ground, and the wine bottles also fell to the ground with a crisp cracking sound.
With the bright moonlight, there were more and more ghosts in the hall, they were floating in the air blankly, walking in the walls, constantly wandering in the room, Ah Hua and Ah Biao were about to faint with fright.
"Bang dang!"
Suddenly, the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground sounded, and the two guys, who were already mentally tense to the extreme, immediately screamed like a girl.
As soon as they turned around, they saw Zhang Ling coming out and throwing the pig-killing knife on the dining table and shouting loudly: "Get out of here, Lao Tzu's spring dreams have been destroyed by you!" ”
Strange to say, as Zhang Ling's voice sounded, the ghosts in the room disappeared without a trace in an instant, and the trembling table returned to calm again.
Zhang Ling looked at the room that had returned to peace, scratched his belly, and said to the two people who were sitting on the ground trembling: "Go, go to sleep!" ”
