"Ghost Village?" Xiaoguo and several people said in surprise.

Lao Meng nodded and said, "Yes!" This Zhuangzi is warm in winter and cool in summer, and it is an excellent place to escape the heat and cold. Last summer, the owner of Zhuangzi brought his beloved concubine to Zhuangzi to cool off, and when the heat in the city dissipated and he planned to leave, the concubine was also pregnant.

It's just that this little concubine returned to the mansion, and within a few days, she was sent back to Zhuangzi. It is said that he was afraid that the lady of the house would be jealous and persecuted, so he hid in the Zhuangzi to raise a baby.

Until this spring, everything was peaceful! Seeing that the concubine's belly is getting bigger and bigger, and another month will give birth, this concubine suddenly went crazy! The child was not saved! It's a baby boy, eight months old, and he already looks like a baby!

The master of Zhuangzi was full of grief and indignation, and specially asked someone to investigate the matter, but in the end, it was still fruitless!

The master remembered the old love and left the concubine in the Zhuangzi, eating and drinking for recuperation.

However, this little concubine is crazy every day, and from time to time she shouts to the open space, 'Good boy, come to my mother', as if she really saw a ghost, which made Zhuang Shang's people panic.

A month after the incident.

One day, before going to bed, the concubine whispered to the little maid who served her, saying, 'Chun'er, my child, is coming to pick me up'!

The little maid thought she was just talking crazy, and she didn't take it to heart.

The next day, Chun'er woke up to find that the concubine, who was originally asleep, had suddenly disappeared mysteriously.

That night, the maid slept in the outer room, and did not hear any unusual noise in the inner room that night!

This matter is not over, the day after the disappearance of the concubine, there was the sound of children crying in Zhuangzi every night!

The subordinates were worried all day long, and the hired farmers were so frightened that they left Zhuangzi one after another, and in the end only a few children were left, because they held the hands of the master because of the deed of sale, they could only stubbornly stay in Zhuangzi.

But when it was dark, he hid in the house, not daring to step out of the door.

The haunting of Zhuangzi became more and more outrageous, and the master had no choice but to invite a mage to do the Dharma in Zhuangzi for several days in a row, but the cry of the baby at night did not decrease but increased.

I heard that since it became a ghost village, the mansion in the city seems to have been contaminated with bad luck, and bad luck has been repeated, first the lady who was three months pregnant had a miscarriage without warning, and then, the owner inexplicably lost his errand in the official mansion!

Ay! It is not an exaggeration to say that Zhuangzi has become a ghost village!

No, it is precisely because of this that the owner of the Zhuangzi is busy selling there, and the price is ridiculously low, and even so, no one wants to buy it! ”

After the story is told, the room is quiet, and there seems to be a cold air flowing in the space, making people feel chilled all over the body.

"Grandpa Meng, if that's the case, why do you want Master to buy there, so that we are not afraid that we will provoke that ghost and become contaminated with mildew?" Nuan'er loves and fears such ghost rumors, she saw that everyone was silent, and asked timidly.

Old Meng Haha smiled and said, "Scared you, right?" I just heard you mention the Zhuangzi to be sold, so I thought of this Zhuangzi, and deliberately said that if you listen to the story, how can you really buy that murderous land! ”

Nuan'er took a long breath and said with a smile: "I see! Grandpa Meng really loves to scare people! ”

"This old boy still likes to play tricks on people like this!" Jiang Shang scolded with a smile.

Lao Meng escaped because of Xiaode, his body became healthier day by day, he had a smile on his face, and he gradually regained his former talkative and cheerful spirit.

Nuan'er is the age of playfulness, saying this, but the bottom of her heart is itchy, faintly disappointed.

"Joke is joke, Guo'er, uncle will ask around, if there is a suitable Zhuangzi, I will tell you!" Lao Meng said and stood up.

"No need!" Xiao Guo, who had been silent, said suddenly.

Lao Meng stopped.

Xiao Guo smiled and said, "Uncle Meng doesn't have to inquire anymore, we will buy that ghost Zhuangzi!" ”

Seeing that everyone looked at him in surprise, Xiaoguo smiled and said nothing.

"Master, seriously?" Only Nuan'er said excitedly.

Xiaoguo nodded firmly.

"Guo'er, you can't buy it!" Jiang Shang hurriedly said, "You are out and about, these unclean things, it's better to provoke less!" ”

Xiaoguo picked up Xiaoyu who was sticking to his body and begging for something, stuffed it into Mingze's arms, got up and walked to his father-in-law's collapse, sat down, and said with a smile: "Father-in-law, don't worry, just believe in Guo'er once!" Your daughter, I, can not only accept the crying imp in the village, but also find a good place for you to recuperate! ”

"Master, do you know how to hunt ghosts?" Nuan'er suppressed her beating heart and looked at Xiaoguo adoringly with shining eyes.

"Of course!" Xiaoguo said proudly, "When the master buys that Zhuangzi, I will take you to catch ghosts!" ”

"Guo'er, do you really want to buy that ghost Zhuangzi?" Lao Meng regretted it a little and talked about it on a whim.

"Of course, without further ado, Uncle Meng will take me to the master of the Zhuangzi and discuss the price!" Xiaoguo couldn't wait.

Lao Meng glanced at Jiang Shang, and saw that the elder brother looked helpless, but he didn't object, so he had to compromise: "It's okay!" ”

"Senior brother, Grandpa Jiang will be handed over to you!" Nuan'er saw Xiaoguo walking out of the room, and exclaimed urgently, "Master, I'm going with you too!" ”

Jiang Shang and Ming Ze were relatively speechless, and they both shook their heads and sighed.

When Xiaoguo and the others returned, they already had a bunch of keys in their hands.

"Master said, then get up and go to Zhuangzi to catch ghosts, senior brother, do you want to go together!" Nuan Er rushed to the road.

"Master, seriously?" Ming Ze always thought that Xiaoguo was joking, but when he saw that Zhuangzi was really bought, he couldn't believe it.

"That's right! Although the former owner of Zhuangzi said that the houses there were all newly renovated last year, the father-in-law should not move too much, so for the sake of insurance, we should go and check it out first, and then take him over! "Little fruit road.

"Brother, please come over and have a look in the afternoon! Mingze also went over! It's not a problem for me to get out of bed now, and I don't have to be watched. Jiang Shangdao.

Although Xiaoguo had no fear and swore an oath, Jiang Shang still felt that he couldn't follow him, and his heart was very unsteady.

"Good! Brother, don't worry! It's daytime, and the ghosts don't dare to come out to make trouble, and I will desperately protect the children if there is a situation! Lao Meng's expression was serious, and he looked like he was about to be generous.

Seeing this, Xiaoguo laughed and said, "It's not life and death, father-in-law, Uncle Meng, don't you do this!" ”

Zhuangzi was more than twenty miles away from the town, and the road was relatively flat, and they rode in a carriage, and arrived at their destination in about an hour.

Xiaoguo stood outside the gate of Zhuangzi, looking at the surrounding environment, and saw that Zhuangzi was facing mountains on three sides, and a clear river flowed in the south, with plenty of sunshine, and the mountains blocked the invasion of cold air, so it was no wonder that there would be a climate like spring all year round.

I couldn't help but admire, and said: "Surrounded by mountains and rivers, it is really a good place!" ”

Nuan'er had already jumped out of the carriage, picked the chrysanthemums on the side of the road, held them in her hands, and took them back half of them in Grandpa Jiang's room, and half of them were given to Xiaode as a gift!

Lao Meng took out the key, opened the heavy iron lock on the door, and replaced it with a new lock.

Several people got into a carriage and drove along the stone road towards the inside of the Zhuangzi.

The servants in the Zhuangzi moved out long before the change of hands here.

The deed states that the Zhuangzi covers an area of 200 acres, which belongs to the owner from the north to the back of the mountain range and the south to the river.

Xiaoguo lifted the curtain and watched all the way, flashing crops on both sides of the road.

About half a pillar of incense, the carriage drove into the racecourse and stopped beside the stable.

The group walked through the fenced vegetable fields to the housing area.

But seeing the bricks and tiles are green, the houses are tall and neat, there are two independent courtyards, and they are quite novel and unique, which are obviously for the owner's small residence.

Among them, there is a courtyard where a few peppers are planted.

Several people hurried to see Zhuangzi, and they were still in the future for lunch.

When Xiaoguo entered the kitchen, he found that the pot stove was still there, and the porcelain jar was full of oil, salt, rice and vinegar.

She touched her belly and said with a smile: "I was curious, I didn't feel hungry, but now my curiosity is gone for the most part, and my stomach is bulging!" Otherwise, let's get some food first, fill our stomachs, and then visit again? ”

Nuan Er saw that Zhuangzi had not seen anything strange happen except for the lack of people, and her interest gradually weakened. I just found eggplant on the side of the vegetable field, so I went to pick it and burn it to eat! ”

"Mingze, you go with Nuan'er!" Lao Meng was a little relieved and said.

"Good!" Ming Ze hurriedly answered and ran in the direction of the vegetable garden after Nuan'er.

After a while, the brother and sister came back with a few green handfuls of eggplants.

Xiaoguo had steamed the rice on the stove, and in the kitchen, found a few potatoes and some dried mushrooms.

"Today, let's change our appetite and eat some vegetarian dishes!" Xiaoguo smiled.

For a few days in a row, because Jiang Shang was injured, they stewed the soup of the big supplement, and Xiaoguo and they also ate and drank.

I don't know if Jiang Shang has made up for it, but there are a few Xiaoguo, and their faces are much rounder.

"Master, how are you going to eat these?" Nuan'er consciously cleaned up the vegetables.

Xiaoguo took out a few small porcelain bottles from his arms, thought for a while, and said: "Cut the potatoes into shreds, make a spicy mix, and then make a fish-flavored flavor, and make the eggplant braised and fried, as for these dried mushrooms, just make a hot and sour mushroom soup!" ”

At the moment, Ming Ze and Nuan'er worked together, cutting or frying, Xiaoguo kept reminding and correcting on the side, and Lao Meng took the initiative to add firewood to the bottom of the stove.

"Mingze, after the shredded potatoes are shredded, soak them in water for a while before cooking, so that the dishes made will have a more crisp taste!" Xiaoguo said.

Ming Ze hurriedly responded, doing it correctly, and secretly remembering it in his heart.

"Nuan'er, don't mix the batter too thin, otherwise the eggplant slices won't be able to hang on the batter, and you will eat too much oil when frying, and the food will be too greasy!" Xiaoguo said again.

When Nuan'er heard this, she hurriedly added some flour to it.

"Uncle Meng, the fire is finer."

When Lao Meng heard this, he hurriedly put the firewood in his hand that he wanted to add to the bottom of the stove and put it back into the pile.

Xiao Guo's eyes kept turning on the three of them, and seeing that everything was going on in an orderly manner, she nodded with satisfaction.
