"You, are you a human or a ghost?" I looked at Master Zhao and stumbled.

Master Zhao shook his head helplessly, and reached out to pull me up, but I quickly rubbed it back, trying to stay away from him.

Master Zhao was a little impatient and asked, "What are you tossing at night?" If you don't sleep and run around, don't tell me you're sleepwalking and just woke up! ”

Seeing Master Zhao sitting on the bed angrily, he really didn't look like a murderer. I took a few breaths to try to calm myself down and then asked him, "Why are you here?" ”

"How did I get here? Didn't you give me the big phone? If you can't get through, you will hang up after two rings, and I will be so poor that you kid will save those two cents on the phone bill, but I will call you back, and you will not answer. I was afraid that something would happen to you, so I rushed here. ”

"This?" This is really not a script with me in mind, I said, "I called you, but didn't you turn off your phone?" I didn't get through! ”

"Turn off the fart machine, I don't even know the ringtone! You're still a young man. ”

My God, what's going on, I'm actually playing with an old-fashioned ringtone at this time, it's been an old trick for many years, why does this old man still use this kind of ringtone!

Then I told Master Zhao about my experience, including asking him what was going on with these paper figures.

Master Zhao's answer is very simple, the sound of knocking on the wall is that I heard it wrong, these paper figures are purely for practicing their craft, and they don't mean anything. After Shen Fei and Ye Tianming died, they felt that it was not good to keep their paper figures, so they burned them.

Then he opened the door to the dormitory with a spare key, told me to go back to sleep, and then went back to duty.

Fortunately, nothing happened in the second half of the night, and when I saw Chen Jiaqiang the next day, I found that he had stayed up all night shift, and his complexion was actually better than last night, although the eye circles were still very dark, but the degree of eye socket collapse was significantly reduced.

The next day was also very peaceful, quietly following Master Zhao to work in the factory. I mentioned the matter of resigning and going home again, but I couldn't stand Master Zhao's scare, we did come to this paper shop to get into trouble, but Shen Fei and Ye Tianming did die outside, so I don't know where it is safe, let's live one day at a time. When people have nothing to do, they have to see if they can't see it.

At night, I was on duty with Master Zhao, but not long after I went to work, Master Zhao leaned back on the chair and began to snore. At about eleven o'clock, a little girl appeared in front of the counter, just a few years old, only barely nodded from under the counter, it is estimated that she has not even graduated from kindergarten, and now she is struggling to pick up the counter and say to me: "Brother, brother, I want to buy a dress." ”

When I saw that this little girl was so big, a person came to the store at night and hurriedly asked, "Where are your parents?" What about the adults in your family? It's so late now, so don't run around with children. ”

As a result, the little girl said: "Brother, I didn't run around, I just wanted to buy a skirt, you see, I brought money." ”

Saying that, she put the two hundred yuan in her hand directly on the counter, you know, in a rural place like ours, the economy is not very good, even if it is a relatively wealthy family, it is impossible for such a young child to take two hundred yuan bills to buy things by himself. I immediately pulled my face down: "Little girl, it's not good to steal the family money, go and return it to your parents, and then apologize to your parents." ”

Seeing me like this, the little girl pursed her lips and cried aggrievedly: "This is my own money, I can spend it how I want, why are you so annoying, if it weren't for your store nearby, I wouldn't have come to you." ”

The little girl cried, Master Zhao was woken up directly, looked at the situation of the two of us, and actually asked me: "How do you sell things, and you make the guests cry?" ”

I said, "This child may have stolen the family's money, I can't sell her things, and we don't sell children's dresses in this store!" ”

Master Zhao's mouth was almost crooked by me, glared at me, and hurriedly went to comfort the little girl: "The child doesn't cry, he is new and ignorant, what kind of skirt do you want?" ”

The little girl pouted and glared at me before turning her head and saying to Master Zhao, "Be pretty." ”

Master Zhao saw that she couldn't say anything style, so he took a box from the shelf and opened it in front of the little girl.

My God, shouldn't these be the things that are burned for the dead when they go to the grave? Look at the little girl really look carefully one by one, carefully select, the white little face is full of innocent happiness, Mom, this little girl is not a person! No wonder he appeared directly in the store silently at that time, and it was really a dead man's business this night.

Seeing that the little girl picked for a long time, a pink one in her left hand and a yellow one in her right hand, she looked at it, and she was reluctant to put any of them down, and then she was so anxious that she almost cried out. Master Zhao stood behind the counter, observing the little girl's expression with a smile, until the little girl's golden beans reached the corner of her eyes and were about to fall, and Master Zhao said, "Do you like these two?" ”

The little girl nodded vigorously, looked at Master Zhao pitifully, and said with tears: "However, I don't have enough money." ”

Master Zhao smiled schemingly, and said to the little girl: "That's it, I'll ask you about something, if you are willing to tell me, I can buy one and get one free." ”

"Uh-huh, you say." The little girl nodded vigorously.

"You guys, a few years ago, a one-year-old boy lived in it, and he followed his grandfather, do you recognize it?" Master Zhao asked.

The little girl nodded: "I know, but he has a bit of a weird temper, and the family doesn't give him money to spend, he always robs us of things, and he has a giant baby ghost body, we can't beat him, so we don't like to play with him." ”

Master Zhao asked again, "Then have you seen him recently?" ”

The little girl said, "I can't see him, he has already been taken away." ”

Master Zhao asked again, "What kind of magic weapon was used to detain him?" ”

The little girl thought for a moment and said, "It seems to be a white gourd, and there are many patterns on the mountain surface." ”

Master Zhao nodded, then put the two little skirts in a basin, grabbed a handful of papier-mâché candy into it, and then set it on fire, and the little girl watched the fire light up, clapped her hands, and jumped out of the store.
