24. Who's knocking at the door
Nan Xun looked at his wife in the bedroom through the scent.
"He Ruo, let me hug it."
He Ruojiao pushed Nan Yu away shyly, "Xianggong, you haven't washed yet." ”
Suddenly, the cowardly baby in the yard began to bark again.
He Ruonan heard a knock on the door.
There was no pattern to the sound, it was like a knock.
"Who could it be at such a late hour?"
Nan Xun came out to open the door, followed by He Ruo.
He Ruo held an oil lamp in his hand.
The door opened, and Nan Xun saw that there was no one.
The baby rushed out and circled around the ground.
He Ruo saw a black thing on the ground, and when he borrowed the oil lamp in his hand, it was three bats.
It's dead.
Nan Xun threw the three away and closed the door.
He Ruo went back to the room with the oil lamp, and heard a voice in the courtyard again: "Give me back my life...... Give me back my life......"
The voice could not distinguish between a man and a woman, as if it were near a well.
If it were someone else, if you encounter this kind of thing when you move to a new house, you must think it is haunted.
Nan Xun didn't bother to look at it, "Lady, go back to your room and sleep." ”
He Ruo said: "Xianggong, but ......"
The voice stopped abruptly, because there was a different voice than the previous one, and it said, "If you don't pay it back, you will die innocently......
"If you don't pay it back, you are innocent of death......"
The two voices seemed to be arguing in the air.
Immediately after, there was another sound of walking, and He Ruo saw a black shadow jumping outside the courtyard wall.
"Xianggong, what was that just now?"
Nan Xun beckoned, and a small frog jumped on Nan Xun's palm.
"It was talking just now."
In He Ruo's puzzled eyes, Nan Xun said to the little frog: "Repeat, what did the people who pretend to be ghosts say? ”
The little frog spoke, imitating the voice of an old man: "Brush the pig's blood, the chicken's blood, the cow's and sheep's blood, and the ......."
He Ruo asked, "What is this?" A carpenter during the day, a voice that speaks? ”
Nan Xun said: "Exactly, he brushed a lot of animal blood on the gate of the painting head, we can't smell it, but the vampire bats can smell it, and they come to knock on the door at night and crash directly into the gate." ”
Deliberately scaring people, huh?
He Ruo suddenly realized, "So that's the case, it was also a carpenter who said just now that I was returning my life?" ”
Nan Xun said: "It must be inseparable from them, on the surface, they welcome us to settle down in accordance with the immigration policy, but they still remember my revenge for killing D-level monsters before." ”
Therefore, as soon as the little frog spoke just now, he scared away the pretending to be a ghost.
He Ruo pressed the little frog's head melon with his fingertips.
"Quack, you are really useful, you have made a great contribution."
The little frog enjoyed the compliment of his master, narrowed his eyes and stuck his head out.
Nan Xun said, "It's okay, let's go out and play." ”
He shut out the little frog and the baby egg, and couldn't wait to blow out the oil lamp.
In the bedroom, He Ruo's voice was inaudible: "Xianggong, what if we have a child and are also snatched away by monsters as food." ”
Nan Xun said: "Who dares." ”
……
The next day, Nan Xun took a big brush and painted the door again.
He Ruo held his chin and watched intently. There are also pink bubbles in his eyes.
"It's worthy of my father-in-law, painting the door is so handsome."
The lacquer is painted with herbs.
It can prevent mosquitoes, rats, cockroaches, ants, and bats, all of which are shy away.
After brushing, Nan Xun asked He Ruo: "Lady, where do you want to go today?" ”
He Ruo said: "Xianggong, we ...... Can you take Sister Yun Rou over to live with you? I'm a little worried about her. ”
