On the west side of the village lived a family of widows who had died young, and had a son, who was eleven years old.

One night just the other day, something knocked on the door of the widow's house, and it knocked for a long time. The widow's son could not stand the noise, so he ran and opened the door, and then stood alone at the door, and for a long time he stared at the door where there was no one at all, and he could not leave, and then he was stupid, and he giggled during the day, and in the evening he pointed to the intersection at the west end of the village and went crazy, saying that there was a man standing under the locust tree.

It was a real thing, because there was a lot of knocking at the door, and everyone in the neighborhood heard it. A few bold people set up a ladder to look at the whole thing, and said that there was really no one outside the door, but the door kept ringing until the widow's son opened the door.

The widow watched her son go crazy for two days, and asked someone to invite a goddess from a nearby village. As a result, the goddess came, but she didn't even dare to enter the widow's house, so she turned around and left. When she left, she left a sentence, saying that the evil had already entered the door, and she was in the house, and she couldn't cure it, so if she didn't want to be entangled, she would quickly move with the child.

The evil man entered the door, and there was no one alive.

But as soon as this incident came out, even the mother's family didn't dare to let them go back to live, where could she take her stupid son with a widow? The two of them stayed in the evil house every day, waiting for death.

There were constant knocks outside the door, and Old Man Li's pale face was covered with beads of sweat.

He made up his mind not to open the door. But thinking about it, I suddenly forgot whether the third young master who loved to go out and hang out had come back, if not, what if it was the third young master who knocked on the door? After struggling for a long time, he gritted his teeth and decided to go to the third young master's room to have a look first.

Creak!

The door made a noise, and the chaotic knocking outside the door suddenly stopped at this time, Old Man Li glanced at the yellow charm pasted on the crack of the door in disbelief, lit the lantern, and limped towards the back house.

In the second half of the night, the bats that were hooked out of the mountain by the blood of the yellow eel began to hit the door more frequently, and more of them hung upside down in the dense forest around Li's house, as if they knew that there was actually nothing, but they were stimulated by the fishy smell and were reluctant to leave.

It wasn't until dawn that the bats gradually dispersed.

Chen Xiaodonkey and Zhang Hu hid in the forest in front of the door all night, but they didn't dare to close their eyes, and their eyes were red.

Doesn't seem to have much to gain?

Zhang Wat had doubts, this seems to be a bit contrary to common sense, if someone knocks on the door and doesn't open the door, it doesn't matter, at least he should ask loudly inside, 'Who's?' Yes.

Looking at Chen Xiaodonkey's posture of preparing to leave, Zhang Wat lowered his voice and said, "Zhibai, didn't they hear it?" ”

"I must have heard it, but I didn't dare open the door."

Chen Xiaodonkey shook his head. Last night he heard footsteps three times, each more than the other, which proved that there were more people approaching the gate each time. Bats are also keen in hearing, so when they hear something approaching, they instinctively pause and hide, and when the bats hit the door last night, there were three abrupt pauses with the footsteps he heard.

It also shows that he heard correctly.

There is a way to say it, Zhang Wat nodded and didn't ask more.

Chen Xiaodonkey walked to the door of Li's house and checked it, and found that the worry that he didn't ask last night was completely superfluous, and not a single bat was killed. And the smell of yellow eel blood on the gate has also become very weak at this time, and it is estimated that it will be completely dissipated in a short time.

He waved to Zhang Hut, and the two of them left quickly while it was still slightly dark.

As soon as he walked down the small dirt slope where Li's house was located, Zhang Wat suddenly stopped, his face was a little wrong, and said, "Zhibai, you go first, don't wait for me." After saying that, he half-bent over, clutched his stomach and quickly ran into the woods by the roadside.

Is this a person who has three urgency?

Chen Xiaodonkey rolled his eyes, but he didn't have to wait, anyway, the two of them went back to the city and the Taoist temple, and they didn't stop by.

Returning along the east-west road, Chen Xiaodonkey quickly walked to the west entrance of the village, but just as he stepped into the village and was about to pass through the village, the door of the first house in the village was suddenly knocked twice.

The sound of 'bang' was not loud, but it was especially obvious in the quietest time of the day, Chen Xiaodonkey's footsteps suddenly turned his head to look over, a little boy in an old shirt was standing at the door, slowly moving his hand away from the half-open door, his eyes staring straight at him.

He and the little boy looked at each other for a few seconds, and were a little uncomfortable by the eyes, and scolded in his heart that this bear child came out before dawn and was scary, and he didn't bother to leave.

But just as he lifted his foot, the little boy suddenly spoke.

"Big brother, someone is calling you there, why don't you ignore it?"

"Where?"

Chen Xiaodonkey was stunned for a moment, and he didn't hear anyone call him.

The little boy pointed in the direction behind him and said, "There, under the locust tree." ”

He turned his head suspiciously, and looked in the direction the boy pointed, thinking that this kid was playing a prank, but he didn't expect to see a figure there, it was Zhang Wat.

Is this calf so fast, so let yourself go first? Chen Xiaodonkey couldn't help but be angry.

However, Zhang Wat stood under the big locust tree, and did not go this way anymore, but kept waving his hand to signal him to hurry over, and at the same time, the voice also came, "Zhibai, come and take a look!" Hurry up! ”

The voice was not loud, but Chen Xiaodonkey still heard it clearly, and couldn't help but curse and hurriedly walked over there, because he seemed to be in a hurry when he saw Zhang Wat.

"Don't look at it! Come back! ”

Just as Chen Xiaodonkey had just taken two steps back and stepped out of the village, a low voice suddenly came, and someone grabbed him by the shoulder from behind and pulled him back.

Chen Xiaodonkey was caught off guard, squatted on the ground backwards, and was about to scold, but when he looked up and saw the person who pulled him back---- "It's useless?" He suddenly froze, and then couldn't help but look towards the locust tree again, the locust tree was dark and empty, not to mention people, not even a ghost.

Zhang Wat ignored Chen Xiaodonkey, but quickly turned around, poked a finger at the little boy who also didn't react, and scolded in a low voice: "Looking for death!?" ”

The boy's face turned pale and retreated, and Zhang Wat pounced on him to make up for it. The kick was not ordinarily hard, and the boy flew back upside down, slamming the half-open door wide. It's just that after falling to the ground in the courtyard, he immediately struggled to get up, and looked at Zhang Wat fiercely through the door, as if he wanted to pounce out, but he was a little scared.

At this time, there was movement in the house, and a very haggard woman rushed out of the house, protected the boy, and looked at Zhang Wat who was standing outside the door and Chen Xiaodonkey, who had just gotten up, with hostility in her eyes.

Chen Xiaodonkey opened and closed his mouth, but did not speak. Zhang Wat said in a low tone, full of warnings: "Take care of your son at night, don't let it out and harm people!" With that, he stretched out his hand and closed the dilapidated black courtyard door.

The two walked quickly through the village without saying a word, and when they got out of the village, Chen Xiaodonkey breathed a sigh of relief. He vaguely guessed what had just happened, but the more he knew, the more unsteady he became, and confirmed in a low voice to Zhang Hu: "It's useless, what happened just now, how did I see you standing under the locust tree?" ”

Zhang Wat shook his head and said, "There is something under the tree, but it's not me, the little boy is looking for a replacement for the dead ghost for the things under the tree!" After a pause, he said, "It's strange, Zhibai, why are you confused?" Generally, only people who lack yang energy or are unstable will be recruited. ”

Are you unsteady? Chen Xiaodonkey smiled bitterly, in the past few days, hasn't he been troubled by that anonymous letter and has been very worried and unstable. He avoided the topic, thinking of the extremely uncomfortable eyes of the little boy just now, and wondered: "That little boy, what's the situation?" ”

Zhang Wat groaned slightly and said, "There is an evil in that house, and it should be the door that the child opened in the middle of the night." I pointed at him and kicked him again, and the child should be better for the next few days, but if he doesn't move in another seven days, he will have to wait for death. As for why he found you, if I guessed correctly, he should be with the one under the locust tree, otherwise, he wouldn't lead you to the bottom of the big locust tree. ”

Chen Xiaodonkey gasped.

There are two evil people at the head of a village, and the village doesn't look like a big feng shui pattern, how can they get into trouble with these things? He said, "What about the family, is there a solution to this matter?" ”

Zhang Wat pouted and said, "When the evil enters the door, there is no living person." It's not so absolute, but it's tricky to deal with, what do you care about this nosy? ”
