Chapter 74: You can only take one of the two
These crimes are heinous, and since we can't sue them, it's better for me and Uncle Xu to eliminate harm for the people.
Touching the dark to Li Guan's house in the east of the city, seeing the singing and dancing to the level, a beautiful sound, the furnishings in the house are very luxurious, the house is full of golden and charming eyes, it is really rich and exposed, even this plaque is golden, to the inside, Uncle Xu and I did not say a word, took off the head of this Li Guan, frightened the surrounding singers The soul is not possessed, and the birds and beasts are scattered.
The other two are like this, put the heads of these three people on the court, the second morning, the official found that the three heads on the public case, all of them were frightened, Uncle Xu and I took the eaves above, uncovered the tiles and saw a group of minions panicked, covered their mouths and snickered, suddenly laughed, looked up at the bottom of the teeth, and said loudly: "Who?" ”
Uncle Xu took me to fly to the sky, and suddenly heard the people shouting below, and this is the manifestation of the living Bodhisattva, I was very happy, waving at them, the people below were actually kneeling on the ground and kowtowing, Uncle Xu was invisible, others could only see me, he was in my ear, and scolded in a low voice: "The limelight is for you to rob." ”
"What's that? Anyway, if you do a good deed, you also have some cultivation. ”
After flying forward for a long time, I vaguely saw some people, and Uncle Xu hurriedly put me down and said, "How is it here?" ”
There are many restaurants here, there are many people, people on the street are shoulder to shoulder, and it is not the same as the place where you lived in the past, and the ears are boiling and noisy, and there is a burst of food fragrance.
I don't know where this is, it is so prosperous, the streets are wide, the sound of horses' hooves, bustling, people come and go, and there are vendors selling some food on both sides, shouting "Sugar gourd!" Sugar gourd! There was a shout over there, "Sugar Man!" "Sugar Man" turned around, and there were still some people selling jujube mud cakes, Qingtuanzi, etc. behind him.
I couldn't help swallowing my saliva, and immediately decided to stay here, Uncle Xu smiled and said, "Xiao Qiu'er, you foodie!" ”
The people take food as the sky, Uncle Xu naturally doesn't understand this truth, I didn't bother to explain, I turned my back to the place, walked to the place where the sugar gourd was sold, reached out and took one, and said to the vendor: "Pay for the one behind you!" ”
The vendor stretched out his hand to Uncle Xu: "Two pennies!" ”
Seeing this, Uncle Xu also took one and threw the four cents into the hands of the vendor.
The two of us ate while walking on the street, except for the cold weather and some cold mouths, but the food was sour, but now if we want to live here, we must first find a place to live, otherwise how can we survive this night.
But when you ask, the houses here are too expensive, but an ordinary two-room small house, with a single courtyard, costs one or two silver a month, which can scare me and Uncle Xu away, the price is too high, and I can't afford to provoke it!
After walking around, even the most ordinary inn costs five hundred coppers a month, although the price is much cheaper than renting a house, but the inn does not include food, and the silver is not less than that, after all, there is a sugar gourd here, it costs two pennies, and it is only a penny on weekdays, and the cost here is too high.
Later, I learned that the place we came to was the capital of Xia Liangguo, no wonder it was so prosperous and lively, so it makes sense, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, it is naturally extremely rich.
But it's bitter for me and Uncle Xu, the price of this capital is too high, and I only have one or two pieces of silver left, if we rent a house, there is no food there, and we can only take one, then we naturally choose food.
After all, it's winter, it's dark early, seeing that the sky is getting darker and darker, and the wind around is getting stronger and stronger, roaring towards me and Uncle Xu, the two of us wrapped up our clothes tightly, but we still can't withstand the cold, it's best to stay at home in this weather, but where is home?
I couldn't support it, so I said to Uncle Xu: "Uncle, why don't we leave the capital and go to some other places, how can this silver be enough to spend once, and slowly find a job to do." ”
Uncle Xu nodded helplessly, and mentioned his husband again, saying that his husband has a good brain, and I am stupid, so I can't think of a way, and I am not to be outdone and scold him An old man can't come up with any ideas.
At this moment, a sound of mourning sounded in my ears, the first two people each held a sign, one left and one right were quiet and avoided, Uncle Xu and I immediately hid on both sides of the road, but my eyes were glancing, these people were so strange, they were all dressed in white.
There are a few people in the line, both men and women are crying, wearing white flowers on their heads, wearing sackcloth on their bodies, and a coffin in the middle, carried by eight people, I only then understood that this is a funeral, but how to travel at night, isn't it clear that I can't see the road? It is also really inconvenient to be buried.
Uncle Xu suddenly blindfolded me and said, "Close your eyes, don't speak, and pretend you don't see anything!" ”
Suddenly, I felt a chill on my body, and I heard a sharp and piercing voice in my ears: "Why don't you come with us?" ”
Then came Uncle Xu's voice: "Leave later, you go first." ”
Because of Uncle Xu's instructions just now, I didn't say a word, but I unconsciously had a layer of cold sweat on my body, because the voice just now was a little distant and empty, not like a human voice, but like a ghostly voice, with a little coldness.
After a long while, the footsteps became farther and farther away, and the sound of mourning and music was no longer audible, so Uncle Xu put down his hand and hurriedly took me away from here.
Finally left this place, I suddenly found that the sky was a little brighter, Uncle Xu patted his chest, and said as if relieved, Xiao Qiu'er, we just went to the wrong place.
I don't understand what Uncle Xu means, I can't go all this way, how can I go to the wrong place?
Seeing that I didn't understand anything, Uncle Xu said: "We just walked the ghost road, that's why I met the ghost, if I didn't blindfold you, your soul would have been hooked, as long as you don't speak, close your eyes, they won't see you." ”
After thanking Uncle Xu for saving his life, I remembered the words of the female ghost just now, and asked, "Then Uncle Xu just now he seemed to be telling you to leave, why didn't you go with him?" ”
Uncle Xu's face changed before he became serious, and he turned to the ground and spitted: "I won't leave, the fun of this world, I haven't thought about it, now that I can just transform into a human form, how can I easily say and leave, and if I leave, you don't know that you must close your eyes and not speak, you must be hooked by them." ”
After saying these words, Uncle Xu said to himself: "It's strange, how can there be ghosts in this market, and how can there be ghosts?" ”
After a while, he said: "It seems that there is too much yin qi there, and there must be a lot of deaths!" ”
I nodded blankly and said, "But when Uncle Xu just walked on that road, he was refreshed, and he walked like flying, so he must be very comfortable." ”
"Comfortable is comfortable, but you look at that gloomy, there is nothing to do, my Uncle Xu doesn't like that, it's too dull, too boring."
At this moment, a burst of crying sounded, startling us, and when we turned around, it turned out to be the voice from the mansion behind us, and the voice of a man crying and grabbing the ground reached our ears: "Dad, why did you go, and my son is still filial piety?" ”
It was a person in the house, who had just passed away his father, although the deceased was the greatest, but today it was too unlucky, and I had two encounters, unlucky things, I pulled Uncle Xu's sleeve and said, "Let's go quickly!" ”
But Uncle Xu didn't move, his eyes stared straight at the house, I followed his eyes to look over, it was no different, if there was, it was not the New Year, but there were two very big door gods on the left and right on the two Zhu doors.
I don't think so, the things posted by rich people are different from ordinary people, which is not surprising, but it's a pity that the old man is staring at the two door gods, and he can't move a step.
Seeing him like this, it was like seeing a beautiful girl, I stood in front of him, opened my arms and said, "Uncle, can you not look like this, you almost drool, how can these two door gods make you salivate?" ”
After saying this, Uncle Xu's eyes began to move, and then he looked at me and said, "Xiao Qiu'er, what are you standing in front of me?" Do you want to insult me? Although my Uncle Xu is not a decent man, he doesn't eat everything! ”
I was so angry that I hit him on the head, but when I looked at his eyes again, I was stunned again, and I looked straight at the two door gods.
This is really strange, I immediately blocked in front of him again, he immediately moved again, he didn't seem to remember everything just now, could it be that it was because of these two gods?
I was busy pulling him out, and sure enough, Uncle Xu returned to his previous situation, and when he saw that he was a few hundred steps away from the house, he was very puzzled and said to me: "Xiao Qiu'er, when will you know how to spell?" Drag me here, and I don't even notice it! ”
Looking at Uncle Xu's somewhat adoring gaze, I was very proud, pointed to the two door gods on the door, and said, "Uncle, you don't remember anything just now?" ”
Uncle Xu shook his head in confusion: "What's wrong?" ”
"Just now you saw that the eyes of these two door gods were straight, no matter how I called you, you didn't respond, as if you had fallen into an evil spirit!"
Uncle Xu looked at the two door gods from afar, but because he was a little far away, he didn't see it very really, he took the initiative to move forward again, and when he saw it clearly, he began to be blank again, no matter how I called, he didn't answer, but I had to move him to the position just now, he came to his senses, and shouted again and again: "It's really weird, just follow the devil!" ”
"It seems that these two door gods are your nemesis." I laughed, "So you're also scared." ”
"It stands to reason that I'm not afraid of the door gods, but these two door gods are quite weird."
