I smiled and didn't answer his question, but asked, "If you want to solve the problem, just answer yes or no." ”

Forced by my words and had no way out, Li Er glanced at his wife, then nodded and said yes.

I didn't ask why the relationship with the old man was not good, just look at the family environment of this family and know that their life is not rich, if the daughter-in-law is a little unfilial, then the old man will naturally be a little angry from time to time.

I then asked about the origin of the black cat, Li Er told me that it was picked up by the old man from the side of the road when he went up the mountain to chop firewood a few years ago, and his wife did not agree with the old man to raise it, but the old man saved a few mouthfuls from his daily meal and left it to the black cat, and raised it little by little.

It's similar to what I'm speculating, everything has a spirit, even if it's a small milk cat, if you raise it from childhood to adulthood, it will be very affectionate towards you, not to mention this black cat of unknown origin?

It seems that this black cat was not an ordinary cat when it was brought back by the old man, and as the relationship with the old man gets better and better, it should do this to take revenge on the couple who don't know how to be filial, right?

But now that I knew what had happened, it was useless, and the old man's body had not yet been found, so I asked, "Has the cat not been seen since last night?" ”

Li Er nodded yes, so I then asked, "Is there anyone in the family next door to you now?" ”

"No, they all went to their son's house in the city for the New Year, and they won't come back until the fifth day of the new year." Li Er replied.

I nodded, turned around and whispered in Lin Yue's ear: "If I'm not mistaken, that black cat should be hiding in the house next door, it is waiting to see the jokes of this family, and it will definitely not go far." ”

"And how do you want to catch it?" Lin Yue glanced at me and asked in a low voice.

I smiled and didn't make a sound, turned to Li Er and said, "I need your favor, the family should have bought fish for the New Year, right?" Can you find me a piece of fish? ”

Li Er didn't understand what I wanted to do, but after hearing this, he nodded, turned around and went to the kitchen, and came over with a plate after a while.

"Go back to the house, we'll take care of the rest, and if nothing else, we'll be able to find the old man in a moment." I said to Mr. and Mrs. Li and their son.

Li Er's family was suspicious, but they still returned to the house very obediently, Lin Yue pulled my sleeve and asked, "What the hell are you doing with this girl?" ”

"It's not a ghost that we're dealing with, it's a demon, you'll find out later." I smiled at her and turned to the alley at the back of the house.

The wall between the two houses is not too high, I glanced at Lin Yue and asked her if she wanted to climb over the wall with me, this girl smiled: "Nonsense, can I rest assured that you will go over by yourself?" Of course, I have to follow. ”

So the two of them jumped over the wall together, went to the yard of the next house, and I put the plate of fish on the ground at the door, and then hid in the corner with Lin Yue.

Lin Yue understood that I was trying to lure out the black cat with fish, but he still whispered in my ear: "No, ginger tea, your method is too simple, can that black cat be fooled?" ”

I pinched a small talisman in my hand, and I didn't tell her that I just wanted to try it, but I wasn't sure at all.

However, I guessed correctly, and after half an hour, a black shadow suddenly came out of a hole in the door of the house, and ran towards the fish on the plate.

I was overjoyed, and the talisman in my hand was quickly thrown out and shouted: "Don't think about running, bind!" ”

This is a small spell, using their own spiritual power to urge the talisman to temporarily trap the moving object, fortunately, the size of the black cat is not large, so the spiritual power consumed is not much, if it is replaced by a large animal, I'm afraid my talisman will have no effect.

The black cat suddenly couldn't move, and it was still holding a piece of fish meat in its mouth and staring at us viciously, I knew that the power of the talisman seal would not last long, so I quickly found an iron bucket and came over to detain it.

Lin Yue opened his mouth wide and watched me catch the black cat between the lightning and flint, and asked with a surprised face, "Won't it?" Is it really that easy to solve? ”

I shook my head and smiled bitterly, "Where is it so easy?" This is just the beginning, just wait and see. ”

Sitting on the iron pass, after a while, I heard the sound of claws scratching inside, it seems that my talisman seal has failed, but the black cat is trapped, it is struggling hard.

I sat leisurely on the iron bucket and smiled and said, "Don't struggle, I know you can understand what I say, answer me a few questions happily, and I will consider letting you go." ”

The sound of scratching the iron bucket inside stopped for a moment, and then began to scratch again, and I continued: "Don't hold on, I am willing to talk to you to show that I already know what is happening, if you still don't cooperate, then I have to set up a pile of dry wood next to this iron bucket and light it, so that it won't take a few minutes, and your years of Taoism will be in vain." ”

As soon as these words came out, the tickling voice suddenly stopped, and after a few minutes of silence, a voice came from inside Tietong: "You are exorcists?" ”

I smiled: "Yes, but we are not looking for you to clean you up, we just want to find the old man's body as soon as possible, and it won't be difficult for you." ”

"Why should I trust you?" The black cat asked in the bucket.

If there were other people around at this time, they should have been scared away, right? Such a scene is really weird enough.

"You can believe it or not, but do you have any other choice? Why don't you take a gamble and tell me, why? I asked, sitting on top of the bucket.

After a moment of silence, the black cat completely let go of his guard and told us the reason why it hid the old man's body.

It turned out that this black cat had actually been cultivating for hundreds of years, and that time it was picked up by the old man on the side of the road was just because its original owner had just passed away, so he planned to change his life.

Unexpectedly, after getting along for a few years, its feelings for the old man became deeper and deeper, and at the same time, it also saw the old man's son and daughter-in-law all kinds of unfilial behaviors towards him, but it knew that it could not use its own magic power to retaliate against them casually, because of the existence of exorcists, it didn't want to get into trouble.

But this time the old man's death completely angered it, originally the old man just had a cold, but the bunch of couples turned a blind eye, and did not give the old man to find a doctor to treat the disease, after a long time, a small cold caused other diseases, plus the old man's age, he never got up again.

After the old man died, his soul was directly taken away by the soul envoy, but the black cat didn't want to let go of Li Er and his wife, so he made such a play, one was to scare their husband and wife, and the other also wanted to make them ugly in the village, and they couldn't lift their heads when they walked in the future, after all, the old man's body was lost in the countryside, which was a shameless thing.

After figuring out what happened, Lin Yue and I glanced at each other and said, "Okay, I admire your loyalty to the old man, but after all, people have died and cannot be resurrected, and the living people have now been punished, shouldn't you hand over the body?" Shouldn't he be buried in the ground? ”

"Okay, I don't want to make things too big, it's just a trick to get his body out, and now the old man's body is in the wing of this house, you can just move it back." The black cat said helplessly in the iron bucket.

I glanced at Lin Yue, she immediately went over and opened the door to take a look, and sure enough, she saw a corpse covered by a lot of debris, and came back and nodded to me.

But I didn't think it would convince them to just inform Li Er and his wife to bring back the corpse, so I said to the black cat: "In this way, you can help me get the corpse back, and by the way, how about teaching the couple a lesson?" ”

"Oh? How are you going to teach them? The black cat suddenly became interested.

I said my thoughts, Lin Yue covered his mouth and smiled: "Jiang Cha, you girl is too bad, why didn't I find out before?" ”

I can only smile bitterly, to be honest, I don't really want to do this, but firstly, I feel worthless for the old man, and secondly, because I was moved by the righteousness of the black cat, so I came up with such an idea.

He Lin Yue climbed over the wall and walked out of the courtyard of the house next door, to see that there was no one outside, I beckoned to the door of Li Er's house with the body of the old man possessed by the black cat and shouted: "Uncle Li, I found the old man for you, hurry up and take it back." ”

I used my loudest voice to attract a few people in the village, but those people were frightened when they saw the old man's body standing at the door of Li Er's house from a distance, and no one dared to get close, so they had to hide from a distance and watch.

Mr. and Mrs. Li and their son hurriedly came out of the house, and when they arrived at the door, they were also frightened enough, looking at me with a pleading face: "This girl, no, master, what's wrong with our old man?" ”

I sneered and said, "I know what happened, and there is a reason why the old man refuses to go home, I think you should reflect on your behavior?" ”

Li Er and his wife looked at the old man's pale face and their eyes widened angrily, they were already frightened, and knelt on the ground with a "poof" and kept kowtowing, kowtowing while muttering about what was wrong with them.

When I saw that my goal had been achieved, I immediately spoke: "Get up, the dead are gone, you know that you are wrong and you can't let the old man come back to life, so you should bury the old man properly." ”

Li Er and his wife raised their heads and watched the old man walk into the mourning hall, and then lay back in the coffin.

I shook my head helplessly and said to them: "The matter has been settled, we should also leave, remember to bury the old man well, and remember to burn more paper money in the grave during the New Year's holidays, which can be regarded as a kind of compensation for you." ”

After that, he and Lin Yue left without looking back, leaving Li Er and his wife stunned at the door of the house.

Lin Yue and I walked to Uncle Qingcang's house with a conversation and laughter, and after leaving the village, we passed by a dry bush, and suddenly heard a voice say, "Please stay, two of you." ”
