Chapter 123: Halfway Encounter

I didn't think much about it, and walked straight to the front, but because I scolded Scar Ghost just now, my mood was invisibly much better.

"Gege, were you really talking to a ghost just now?"

Aunt Wang glanced at me timidly, still a little incredible.

"Aunt Wang, don't you believe it?"

I said it naturally, but I didn't think much about it, anyway, they also saw it, and it was impossible to lie, but I didn't expect that Aunt Wang would be even more frightened after hearing my words, and in a hurry, she grabbed my hand and looked around, as if the ghost was around him.

"Do you believe in ghosts?"

I'll go, Qixi's words made me almost choke to death with saliva, what is this? Aren't ancient people particularly superstitious, and this guy Qixi still doesn't believe in the existence of ghosts in this world?

"You don't believe it?"

I looked at Qixi, he didn't want to be so scared like Aunt Wang, it seemed that he had seen too much life and death, too many cruel scenes, and a ghost couldn't scare him at all.

"No, I haven't seen ghosts, but I still don't believe in ghosts, I've read a question chapter before, it seems to be about ghosts, and all ghosts are generated by people's minds, and I can't remember what the specific name is."

Qixi still scratched the back of his head when he spoke, as if he was thinking about it there, I naturally knew that the article he said was "Ordering Ghosts" that we learned in middle school, which was written by Wang Chong of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and now I still remember one of the sentences called: Between heaven and earth, there are ghosts, and the spirit of non-human death is also caused by people's thoughts and thoughts, so what is the reason? Due to the disease......

After all, I hadn't seen a real ghost at that time, and I remember it clearly because my tablemate told me a ghost story after learning this text, which scared me into screaming in the classroom, and attracted countless students to come back and see what happened to us.

Now when I hear Qixi's words, I think back to my old self, to be honest, at that time I really thought that those who believed that there were ghosts in this world were quite naïve, but now I think that Wang Chong, who wrote the article "Ordering Ghosts", was very naïve.

Although his articles have been praised by many ghostless and atheist people, and have been favored by many people, and the articles have also entered the textbooks, since I saw the ghosts, this article, I feel that it is nonsense there.

"I understand you, but after washing, you should never see a ghost!"

I didn't explain to Qixi that there are ghosts in this world, I don't want to impose my own thoughts on him, in other words, I might have explained a lot of ghosts to him before, but now I won't.

It's a good thing that others don't believe it, so why should I believe it, I want him to see a ghost, maybe it's not a good thing for people to see a ghost.

At least that's how I am, nothing good has happened to me since I met Ki-hee.

"I, alas~~~"

Ki-hee seemed to want to say something, but her lips twitched a few times, and she still didn't say it, I don't know what she was going to say, but I was quite expecting what he was going to say.

But I didn't ask too much, and it was not easy to force him if people didn't say it.

I walked on, and before I knew it, I came to the brook, where I had always heard a voice giggling when I was here yesterday, but today I have walked here, but there is no such voice.

Could it be yesterday's laughter that of the scarred ghost?

I don't think so, because Scarring's laughter is kind of rough and thick.

"Do you know what this is? I've never seen it, the mountain god is not like the mountain god, and the stone dare is not like the stone god. ”

Although my family is in Shanghai, I have seen statues of mountain gods and stone dangdang, but this is the first time I have seen them.

Because this stone statue is a human head and a sheep body and a snake tail, it feels too strange, and when I saw it yesterday, it made me feel strange, although I have seen it, but today I took a closer look at it, and I felt even more strange.

"I've never seen anything like this, I guess it's the patron saint here!"

Aunt Wang shook her head and said she didn't know.

"I haven't seen it either, but I've heard of it!"

Qixi nodded, this sentence aroused my interest, and I immediately asked him to tell me what it was.

"I heard this thing from our old man when I was a child, and he said that he had seen a very powerful thing before, with a human head and a cow's body, and a fishtail. It is said that the ability of that thing is very great, it is a tree at the head of a village, as if it protects a village, so that the village can not accept natural disasters, and the wind and rain are smooth every year, and do not accept deception; Every year is safe and sound. ”

After listening to Qixi's words, I probably understand what this thing is, although this guy is not Qixi talking about human heads, sheep bodies, and snake tails. But the two are almost the same, and this should be the patron saint here.

"Didn't you say it's amazing?"

I looked at Qixi, I was very curious about how much energy this guardian god had, although these things were not so-called gods or anything, but I think they were also gods here, but they didn't have a proper name, but the people in this area believed in him.

"They are indeed very powerful, I remember the old man said before, when the Qing army was fighting against the stubborn army of the previous dynasty, a former army led the troops into a village in order to attack the Qing army, but after the gang went in, they never came out of that village, but saw their corpses in a mountain forest several years later, when only white bones remained."

Qixi also glanced at the stone statue when he said these words, and I could see that his eyes were full of timidity, and he didn't dare to look at the stone statue very boldly.

"Maybe those people were killed by the people in the village, or maybe our army killed them, after all, they went to another mountain forest."

Aunt Wang's words are also what I want to ask, who knows if those people were killed by others, this kind of thing is the easiest to appear in ancient times, and you can't verify what others say about some strange things, right?

"The remnants of the former Korean army, they can exist for so many years, they are all experienced in a hundred battles, where is it so easy to defeat, not to mention that a group of village names can kill them and throw them into the mountains and forests a hundred miles away? It's impossible. ”

Qixi shook his head, and denied Aunt Wang's point of view in one sentence, I thought about it, it is also like this, how can an army be killed by a group of villagers, and it is impossible that it will be thrown into the wilderness after the incident.

"Did you Qing soldiers kill it yourself? Aren't our Eight Banners soldiers very good? ”

I don't think it's the villagers, it's the Qing army, and as for whether it's the so-called guardian saint of the village, I don't dare to deny it.

"The old man who told me about this is from the army, and he said no. And in the army, if you kill so many people, it will have to be reported, and that is a matter of receiving rewards, a person has a head of tens of taels of silver and hundreds of taels, such a large army, tens of thousands of people, how much silver does it get? ”

Qixi's words scared me stupid, I thought it was just a small team or something, tens of thousands of people, why didn't he say it directly just now, if he said it directly, we wouldn't think that it was a problem that the villagers killed them so stupidly.

And tens of thousands of people, so much silver, it is indeed a lot, this Qing Dynasty is too rich, kill a person will cost dozens of taels, some even hundreds of taels, if it is a general, it must be tens of thousands of taels.

Now the society will kill a person will give you decades of prison and life imprisonment or something, of course, for those enemies, the state's reward policy I guess there are also there.

"Then what do you mean by saying so much, that is, so many people are really destroyed by such a village guardian spirit?"

I still can't believe it, can it really call the wind and rain, of course, I don't question the energy of this thing that is not much different from the gods, I think that Ying Hong didn't just use a fire torch to burn thousands of water ghosts?

"We can't afford to mess with this thing anyway."

Qixi didn't answer me directly, but glanced at the stone statue again, signaling me not to stay here longer, it was better to leave.

I also understood, I nodded, and glanced at the stone statue, which didn't matter, I actually saw the stone statue's eyes roll.

My mother, my heart thumped in fright, my heart was pounding, and sweat was pouring out.

"Do you see his eyes?"

I stood stunned and asked, not daring to turn my head, and I didn't turn my head to see if the stone statue's eyes would still roll.

Or you can move your mouth.

"Gege, don't you talk nonsense?"

Aunt Wang looked at me suspiciously, and her tone was a little strange, as if she was afraid.

"Gege, it's not appropriate to stay here for a long time, let's leave quickly!"

After that, Qixi stepped forward and pulled me and Aunt Wang to leave the pavilion, but when we didn't expect it, when we were about to leave the pavilion, there was something around the pavilion.

It seems to be a transparent film, and it is like a transparent wall of water, and it is still shaking. This thing is like the wall of water that appeared when Tang Seng was caught in the river and locked him up in Journey to the West, I was dumbfounded.

What's even more stupid is that I actually touched it with my hand, and it felt quite cool at first, the water wall was elastic, but what I didn't expect was that I flew back upside down and fell heavily on the ground.
