Chapter 10: Lord Chenghuang
"Dry? What's that? Manager Wang was the first to ask.
"That's right, this is obviously a dead child, why did it become a drought?" Others were puzzled.
Only Li Ergou had a solemn face, and when he saw Sister Bao'er's reaction when she saw the black jar, he had already guessed in his heart.
This little drought is most likely the unborn child who is very beautiful.
"Bao'er, is this a big and beautiful child?" Li Ergou walked up to Sister Bao'er and asked in a low voice.
Da Mei got pregnant unmarried, and was finally forced to have an abortion and induce labor, few people know about it, Li Ergou doesn't dare to publicize it, otherwise, maybe Da Mei will go to him at night.
"Well, it should be."
Sister Bao'er nodded, and then wondered: "But we obviously buried him outside the city, how can he be here now?" ”
Li Ergou's face changed again and again, and he only felt that his head was big for a while.
What happened to Fengyuan Building? First, the elevator was haunted, and then there was a maze of ghosts hitting the wall, and the burial of corpses in off-road vehicles in the green belt.
Now even the drought has come out.
The point is that the big and beautiful child has only been dead for a few days, why did he become a drought and was buried in the wall of the underground parking lot of Fengyuan Building?
There was a lot of fog ahead, and Li Ergou didn't know when he would be able to find out the truth about his father's disappearance twenty years ago.
Whenever he feels that he is one step closer to the truth, something new will happen.
In the dark, it was as if there was an invisible giant hand pushing the whole thing forward, but he couldn't do anything about it.
"As soon as the drought comes out, the red land is thousands of miles, and there is no drop of water, everyone must be careful, don't get rid of the talisman paper on the dead child's head, otherwise Yangcheng will suffer."
The fat man said with a solemn face.
It is no better than ordinary evil spirits and zombies, it is a legendary monster that can cause drought, the corpse does not rot, and it is extremely fast, walking like the wind.
Legend has it that during the time of Song Zhenzong, the drought was strange, and the water in the salt pond dried up. In desperation, Song Zhenzong could only ask Zhang Tianshi for help, and Zhang Tianshi sent Guan Yu to subdue.
Guan Yu fought hard for seven days before he subdued the demon, and he was also named the "King of Righteous and Brave Wu'an".
At that time, there was Zhang Tianshi, and it was about Yu, and it was easy to solve.
But now, Yangcheng doesn't have so much power, and looking at the fat man's appearance, it seems that he can't do anything about this drought.
If something happens, it's going to be miserable.
"Is it really that mysterious? I think this little thing is a dead child! Manager Wang said casually.
He was also bold, and had little fear of ghosts and gods, so he found a broom and stabbed the little dartle a few times.
"Stop!"
The fat man shouted angrily, but it was still too late.
After the dead boy rolled on the ground a few times, the talisman paper attached to his forehead fell aside, and the fat man's face changed when he saw this.
"Manager Wang, you're in a big trouble now."
The fat man hurriedly stepped forward and picked up the yellow rune paper, wanting to put him back on the forehead of the dry fish, but unfortunately he was still a step too slow.
The little dartle kicked his legs and stood up.
His two eyes glowed green, stared at everyone for a while, and then jumped into the hole that had been blown out just now, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.
"It's broken, Yangcheng is going to have a big drought!" The fat man said in a deep voice.
As soon as this drought fish touches the soil, it will immediately flee, faster than the earth grandson. If he escapes, it will be difficult to find him again.
Because of this sudden change, the onlookers became nervous, and only Li Ergou and Sister Bao'er secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
If Da Mei really came out to harass people several times because of the child's affairs, then it should be settled in the future!
However, for the sake of insurance, Li Ergou still made an appointment with Sister Bao'er, took the time to go to the place where the child was buried, and then went to the hospital morgue to take a look.
If the beautiful corpse has returned to the morgue, it means that her wish has been fulfilled and she can be buried in the ground.
Otherwise, strange things will happen.
But what's going on with Uncle Beard? There is also the elusive ghost reader "Hell Ghost", Li Ergou feels that there must be something in Fengyuan Mansion that he hasn't noticed.
And this is likely to be the breakthrough to uncover the truth of the unsolved case 20 years ago.
"Fat man, do you have any other way?"
Knowing that he had made a big mistake and was still in front of so many subordinates, Manager Wang felt embarrassed for a while, and begged bitterly there.
"There's a way, but it's a bit of a hassle."
The fat man scratched his head, and after satisfying everyone's appetite, he said slowly: "We can ask the local city god to ask, as the Yin Si, he must know the traces of the little drought." ”
"Lord Chenghuang?"
Manager Wang was puzzled, and the others also raised their heads.
Li Ergou's eyes widened, this fat man is really arrogant, he has only heard of incense at the City God Temple, and it is the first time he has heard of it when he asks the City God about it.
"A petty official in the underworld."
The fat man waved his hand and said, "Manager Wang, you don't have to worry about the rest, just leave it to me." ”
"It's good!"
Manager Wang thought about it, and said to Li Ergou: "Ergou, I'll give you a few days off, and you will fully cooperate with the fat man to solve this matter." ”
Li Ergou was stunned for a moment, and then nodded in agreement.
In this way, he has been looking for the secret behind the Fengyuan Building, but unfortunately the progress is slow, and the arrival of the fat man may be a turning point.
After lunch at noon, Li Ergou took a taxi with the fat man to the Chenghuang Temple in the east of the city.
Fortunately, Yangcheng is only a county-level city, otherwise it will cost a lot of money to take a taxi, and with Li Ergou's current income, after deducting rent and living expenses, there is basically no money left.
Li Ergou still has to save his wife's book, but he doesn't dare to spend money indiscriminately, and when he usually goes out, he either walks or rides a shared bicycle, and the number of times he takes a taxi can be counted on his fingers.
"Brother Ergou, let's go in!"
There were no monks in the Chenghuang Temple, only a manager, and after the fat man paid some sesame oil money, he walked in with Li Ergou.
After entering, I saw a majestic and solemn statue of the god.
"Chenghuang little god, I saw your fat man, why don't you come out and see you soon?" The fat man, who was also a tiger, shouted at the idol as soon as he entered the door.
Although the city god is just a small god, the fat man shouts like this, and he is always a little less in awe.
"Fat man, can you tell him to come out like this? Shouldn't it be to kneel down and kowtow a few times and then beg him to come out? Li Ergou couldn't help but ask.
For some reason, he always felt that the fat man's trick was not very reliable.
"No, my master is very high, and if you want to kneel, you have to kneel for the fat man." The fat man waved his hand and said arrogantly.
Seeing this, Li Ergou didn't say anything more.
The fat man dares to say this, naturally he has his confidence, otherwise how arrogant he is now, how painful it will be to slap his face later!
But they waited for a long time, and there was still no movement in the house.
"Fat man, can you do it!" Li Ergou asked in a low voice.
The fat man looked embarrassed, and said angrily: "You little city god, you dare to pose in front of the fat man, it seems that it is not good to move the real character." ”
After saying that, he took out a few pieces of yellow rune paper and recited the incantation.
