Chapter 34: Going to the toilet
Xia Fengyi and Feiyan both sighed and hugged each other, Xia Fengyi said in a trembling voice: "Don't be scary, okay?" ”
"I didn't scare you, it's true, you two didn't go to the fasting room to eat, I don't know, just now in the fasting room, we all heard a baby crying......
This sentence frightened the two of them into a blank face, and Feiyan trembled and said, "That's it...... Just now...... We also heard it here just now...... It's the baby's cry ......."
Xia Fengyi slapped Feiyan on the arm: "I'm scared to death, you still say!" ”
Meng Tianchu laughed: "Don't listen to their nonsense, where are there any ghosts in this world!" He stood up and moved his elbow: "Okay, Young Master Ben will be a flower messenger, I'll escort you and guard you outside, you won't be afraid, right?" ”
Feiyan said happily: "Really? Great, thank you! ”
"No, you don't! I don't need to thank you for this little thing, but I will thank you when I do something big for you. ”
"Big deal?" Feiyan habitually pouted, "What can you do...... Hehe, Feiyan is wrong, the young master is very powerful, and he will definitely be able to do great things. Thank you in advance! ”
Meng Tianchu glared at her, and thought, fortunately, you changed your words quickly, otherwise you would have Lao Tzu and left you alone, and let the urine suffocate you two little girls!
Meng Tianchu picked up the oil lamp on the table, blocked the wind with one hand to protect the lamp, and walked out cautiously, although Xia Fengyi and Feiyan were still very nervous, but now that there was a big man by their side, their courage was much stronger, and they couldn't hold it anymore, so they followed him and walked slowly to the back of the temple.
When passing by the room where Qin Yiyun and his wife lived, he heard a voice in the room: "Grandma, then you rest, I'll go back to the house to sleep." Listening to this voice, it is their little maid Jiwen.
Meng Tianchu casually raised his eyes and looked at the window, only to see the silhouettes of two people reflected in the window under the light of the oil lamp in the room.
I heard Mrs. Qin hum lightly, and her voice seemed to be full of helplessness. Meng Tianchu was a little funny, Mrs. Qin hooked up with herself and the handsome scholar Zhang Zhenyu, but she didn't succeed, and she went to hook up with the little monk Xusong, but she was destroyed by the abbot Xuanyin, no wonder she was in a bad mood.
The thatched toilet of the temple is on the edge of the fence dozens of steps behind the temple, Meng Tianchu has been escorting them to the front of the thatched toilet, and then he gave the two of them the oil lamp, and said: "I'm waiting for you outside, don't worry, it's okay, there are really ghosts, I'll catch them back as pets!" ”
Feiyan glared at him and said angrily, "You still say! You have to scare us to death! took the oil lamp, lit up in front, and Xia Fengyi slowly walked into the latrine.
Meng Tianchu was embarrassed to listen to the convenient voices of others, and walked back to the Daxiong Treasure Hall, from where he could see the lights in the latrine.
He leaned against the wall, thinking to himself, it would be nice to have a cigarette to smoke at this time, alas, it has traveled to ancient times, and it is okay to have any other electricity, computers, and networks, and there are no cigarettes, which is really uncomfortable. Hmph, Lao Tzu can't quit smoking in modern society, so he came to this ancient place to quit smoking, it's awesome enough!
Meng Tianchu was thinking wildly, when he heard Xia Fengyi's crying call from the direction of the toilet: "Xianggong~!" ”
It turned out that the two of them came out after the convenience, and they didn't see Meng Tianchu, and they thought that Meng Tianchu was taken away by the female ghost holding the baby, so they screamed.
Meng Tianchu hurriedly beckoned and shouted, "Hey! Fengyi! Swift! I'm here! ”
Xia Fengyi and Feiyan breathed a sigh of relief, the two of them took care of the oil lamp carefully, and slowly walked to Meng Tianchu's side, Feiyan was frightened, but she couldn't help but say with a straight face: "You...... Why did you run so far, didn't you say that you would wait for us outside the latrine? ”
Meng Tianchu smiled: "I...... If I really want to stand outside the latrine, wouldn't I be a beautiful woman? ”
"What is the ...... of the suddenness" Feiyan said casually, and then thought that this was indeed a little inconvenient, snorted, and took Xia Fengyi's hand and walked back.
At this moment, in the pine forest behind the latrine, there were suddenly a few eerie baby crys: Wow~! Wow wow~!
Meng Tianchu suddenly felt his hair stand on end, and although the back of his spine was close to the wall of the Daxiong Treasure Hall, he still felt cold. It's as if someone is blowing into your neck from behind.
Although he was a forensic doctor, he had performed autopsies alone in a cold dissection room or morgue on many occasions. For him, the corpse is nothing more than a carrier after the end of life, an object, no different from a scalpel in his hand, so no matter how highly corrupted or even ossified the corpse is, he will not be afraid of these things that can be seen and touched, but he will also be as afraid of the invisible mysterious horror as ordinary people. This fear comes from the human reverence for the unknowable world.
Feiyan shook her hands in fright, and the oil lamp in her hand flew out, fell to the ground and went out. Xia Fengyi was even more frightened and exclaimed, and couldn't help but grasp Meng Tianchu's arm tightly, almost shrinking into his arms, trembling all over.
Seeing that the two of them were frightened like this, Meng Tianchu was not so scared, and patted Xia Fengyi's hand gently, his eyes were still nervously staring at the direction where the baby's cry came from, and said, "You go back first, I'll take a look!" ”
"Don't ......! Don't go! Xia Fengyi said tremblingly.
"There's nothing to be afraid of, there are no ghosts in the world." Meng Tianchu tried hard to break free from Xia Fengyi's hand, but Xia Fengyi subconsciously grabbed him tightly and couldn't break free.
Meng Tianchu thought to himself, this Xia Fengyi was arrogant by nature, and he looked down on Young Master Meng, the disciple he replaced, if he wasn't so scared, he would never have grabbed his hand, of course, his performance during this period of time also changed Xia Fengyi's bad impression of himself to a certain extent.
Feiyan found a reason for herself not to be afraid, and said: "Yes, the young master is right, maybe this baby is crying, and the nearby villagers are deliberately playing tricks on us." ”
Meng Tianchu said casually: "No, the little monk of the temple just now said that there are deep mountains and dense forests within a radius of dozens of miles around here, and no one lives in them except for their small temple." ”
Meng Tianchu didn't explain, but it was okay, this explanation made the second daughter even more terrified, and at this moment, the baby seemed to be more energetic, crying louder than the other, and the voice was slowly approaching them. The second daughter was even more frightened, trembling, and couldn't even escape.
