Gaiden 2 Happy New Year

Chinese New Year's Eve, which is the day before the New Year.

Almost every household is pasting Spring Festival couplets and setting off firecrackers to welcome the arrival of the new year. The streets are also bustling with children, changing into new clothes, and young women dressing themselves up. But at night, these streets become deserted as they gather with their families for Chinese New Year's Eve.

Twilight now lives in an inn, which is also very lively. Almost all of the people who live here are vendors who don't have time to go home, and they drink and sing.

Here, there is indeed a feeling of family reunion.

Twilight occupies a table in the corner alone, he uses a little spell to drive people away, and he is now a background picture where no one notices him.

The people at the next table were a few Northeast men, especially after drinking, their voices became a lot.

A man in a mink robe said, "I heard that this small county town is haunted!"

His voice was so loud that he silenced everyone as soon as he spoke. The latter were all listening with their ears pricked up and looking at each other.

The mustache at the same table with the mink robe man said: "What kind of unlucky words do you say for the New Year, bad luck!"

The mink-robed man took a sip of wine and continued: "It's because of the New Year that I told you, no one wants to encounter some strange things during the New Year. I hope you'll be careful. ”

He took a piece of meat and threw it into his mouth, chewing it and saying, "You don't know, many people have frozen to death in the past few days!" My brother-in-law is a fast arrester, and he's investigating these cases. ”

A fat man with a shiny face at the same table said: "It's been such a mess these days, and there are many homeless people!" There are also many homeless people who freeze to death! ”

"It's not!" The mink-robed man interrupted him and continued, "Those who have froze to death are at home, and the house is warm, and some people are in front of the fire, but they still freeze to death!" You say it's not evil? ”

"My brother-in-law also said that the common denominator of those dead people is that the house broke into a homeless man, the one who is not a human being, a ghost is not a ghost, and he did these cases!" The mink-robed man said in a low voice.

Everyone present knew that ghost stories were almost always used to scare children, and they didn't take it to heart. They all have a fluke mentality - there are so many people in this city, even if I encounter a ghost, it won't be my turn......

They never thought that they were those unlucky bastards—

The closed door was suddenly blown open by the cold wind, and the warm and warm house was in stark contrast to the cold outside, and as the dividing line was the homeless man at the door. He brought the cold wind in. The man was dressed in tatters, which did not correspond to the lively festival.

The people in the room who had just been drinking shivered, and everyone stopped. The tables approaching the door all stood up unconsciously......

Almost everyone has one idea - it can't be so evil, right?!

The shopkeeper hurried over, and he couldn't help but cover his nose, because this person was really ugly! The homeless man in front of him is a Manchurian banquet with all kinds of rancid smells, which makes people feel like vomiting when they smell it!

"Guest officer, we are full here, can we go elsewhere......" As he spoke, the shopkeeper just pulled him out.

"Don't touch him!" The mink-robed man shouted loudly, "It's so cold outside, why doesn't he exhale white gas when he breathes...... And look at his feet! ”

When he said this, everyone looked at the feet of the homeless man, whose lower body was so weak that it seemed to be blown away by the wind!

"You...... You're a ghost! The shopkeeper was the first to call out.

Taking this as an opportunity, the people in the store dispersed. The timid ones hid directly under the table, and the less timid ones were directly frightened and collapsed on the ground. The brave man directly picked up the stool and smashed it at the ghost, but the physical attack was ineffective, and the stool passed through his body.

At this time, even the brave people were intimidated, and they hid.

"I'm so hungry, I'm so cold......"

The ghost was wailing, and he stared straight at the man closest to him who was sitting on the ground with a limp leg, and walked towards him step by step.

"You, don't come here! You're not welcome here! The man who spoke almost burst into tears.

Bai Du looked over and said, "For the New Year, you are a guest when you enter the door, how can there be a reason to sweep people out of the house." Over there, he doesn't welcome you, so come over here, and I'll treat you to a drink. ”

The ghost's empty eyes seemed to have a highlight at this moment, and he was stunned for a moment, and then slowly walked over.

Twilight's position is close to the kitchen, and several people have taken refuge in the kitchen. "Hey, are you crazy? He's a ghost! Do you want to be eaten by him? A well-wisher reminded. Twilight turned a deaf ear and just looked at the ghost that came by.

"I'm so hungry, I'm so cold......"

The ghost used to be human as well, so he also carries the human repeater essence with him, he ...... It doesn't seem like he can say anything else.

The man in front of him was ragged and full of stench, and if he was still alive, it is estimated that few people would choose to treat him squarely. Bai Du looked into his eyes and said with a smile: "There is wine and food here, you won't be hungry after eating, and you won't be cold after drinking."

Tears seemed to roll in the ghost's eyes, and he nodded slowly, then shoved the food into his stomach one by one. Bai Du looked at him and couldn't help but laugh and said, "Eat slowly, no one will rob you."

He ate quickly and quickly, and quickly cleaned all the food on the table, and his eyes seemed to brighten a little as he watched Twilight, and he continued, "Thank you, thank you, everyone else saw me run away......"

Twilight asked, "Aren't you going home?"

"I ...... There is no ...... home," he said, and the ghost lowered its head.

"What about your family?" Twilight asked.

"No, they're all dead......" the ghost choked.

Twilight smiled slyly, "Then you know that you're dead?" ”

The ghost was stunned and slowly looked up at Twilight, his expression seemed to tell Twilight that he remembered.

"Yes, I'm dead...... I was supposed to send a batch of goods to Guizhou, but I ran into bandits on the way. He paused, and then said, "I was thrown down the mountain by them, and I was not dead, I, I was going to go to my friends in the provincial capital, and it turned out to be ......."

"You died on the road." Twilight finished his sentence for him, and then said, "You're dead, you shouldn't be here......"

"But I hate them......," the ghost, stinking into obscurity, stood up and slapped the table, "I want revenge!" ”

"Just like the bad people in this world who are harmful to death, there are good people. Believe me, they will get their retribution. Twilight unleashed some of her spiritual power, suppressing him a little.

The ghost was stunned and asked, "Will they get retribution?"

"I think so." Twilight laughed.

The ghost was a little sad and seemed to be laughing again. He seemed to have been thinking for a long time, and no one knew what he was thinking.

"Are you still hungry?" Twilight asked suddenly.

"Not hungry...... he replied slowly.

"Are you still cold?" Twilight asked.

"It's not cold...... said, his body was decomposing, he was relieved, he got what he longed for the most before he died, although he was a little regretful, but also satisfied.

Eventually, the ghost disappeared under everyone's amazed gaze.

Twilight poured a glass of wine on the ground, "I salute you!" May you feel the warmth of the world in that world. ”

The crisis was lifted, and the people who were hiding slowly came out. They curiously ask about Twilight's exorcism, and Twilight tells them that all he has done is to get the ghost to let go of his attachment to the world and let him leave on his own.

At this time, the sound of New Year's firecrackers was already heard outside, and Twilight raised his glass: "Happy New Year, everyone!"

"Happy New Year!" The others drank their wines as well.

Last year's worries disappeared with the past year, and everyone greeted the new year with a smile. Unlike the terrifying atmosphere when the ghost broke in before, the inn was full of happiness at the moment.

Twilight loves the atmosphere and it feels great to leave a home for people on the go. Later, he also opened an inn, but that was a later story.

Note: There is still more than half a year before the New Year, so I am here to give you an early greeting! laugh
