Chapter IX: Complaints
I stared at my phone, and my eyes swept to see several bloodstained faces clinging to our backs.
A few pairs of sinister eyes looked at us like nails.
"Cousin, I've said it, don't look in the mirror, but you just don't listen, it's okay now, scare yourself!"
I don't know if this brother heard us talking, anyway, this guy has been sticking his hand outside, as if he was talking to a parking boy: "Little brother, is there a seat?" Find me a seat in this car, you can see if it will work......"
My cousin didn't notice it, he put down his phone quietly, and then pretended not to know anything and pretended to be stupid.
It was pitch black around the crematorium, especially at this point after a rainy day in the winter.
The crematorium is built on the mountain, the terrain can be said to be quite remote, the mountain depression is full of towering pine trees, a cold wind blows, the canopy of the trees rises and falls like waves, and the situation is like a world of ghosts.
"No parking here! Parking is full! ”
I don't know when, a parking guy walked over to us and said loudly.
My cousin and I were eager to knock ourselves out with a stick.
In the darkness, the origin of this little brother is still unclear, but now it is good, this little brother directly told us that the parking space is full......
This is a huge cemetery, and we don't see any of us anyway.
The parking guy has a great figure and is a standard handsome guy, especially in a uniform, which makes him even more handsome.
"Is there any place to park?" The elder brother asked respectfully at this time.
"See? At the foot of the hill over there, walk along the fence, and there is a cemetery around the corner, where there is an open space where you can park, man, there are important people here tonight, don't smash my factory! ”
My cousin and I looked at each other in amazement, and we didn't understand what this little brother meant, but this little brother's eye bubbles rolled out of his eye sockets at some point, and this little brother was about to reach out to grab his eye bubbles, when his head suddenly fell again.
"Driver, let's go, don't go yet! There are ghosts! My cousin and I shouted in unison.
The driver was also frightened, and at this time he hung up the reverse gear, stepped on the accelerator frantically, and the wheels almost idled on the ground and raised black smoke.
"Little calf, who is a brother with you, I am a big living person, you are a dead ghost, we are not people all the way!"
In the process of escaping, the driver still did not forget to argue for himself so strongly.
My cousin and I kept looking at the parking guy in front of us in horror, for fear that he would chase after us at this time.
At this time, the little brother was bent on his waist and kept touching his head, until the car exited a few dozen meters away, and the stone in my cousin's heart fell to the ground.
Seeing that the tiger's mouth was out of danger, suddenly someone tapped me on the shoulder.
I thought my cousin was looking for me, but when I scanned the central rearview mirror next to the driver, I realized that the scruffy dead ghosts had already pounced on me and my cousin with their teeth and claws, and were about to choke my neck.
"Get out of the car, we're home!" A familiar female voice came from among the hideous faces.
"Editor-in-Chief Qian!" I subconsciously felt a sense of intimacy, so I said in my heart.
The car came to an abrupt halt, and I woke up smartly.
An eye-catching street sign appeared in front of him: "Liu Village".
"Liangzi, this is Liu Village who had a taxi accident a few days ago!"
Suddenly, my cousin realized something.
I couldn't believe my eyes, Liu Village was so far away from the crematorium in Nancheng, how could we run from the crematorium to Liu Village in the blink of an eye?
At this moment, the watch in my cousin's hand rang, and my cousin read the information in fear.
"It's all said, don't look in the mirror, today is the first seven of these people."
"As soon as the people in the car come out and see that they can't see themselves in the mirror, they know that they are dead."
"These people who are unwilling to be dead will desperately pull the soul of the Yang people to comfort themselves, and when the time comes, you will have a hundred lives, and I am afraid that you will not be able to withstand the pull."
"Fortunately, this driver was bought by me, as soon as he heard the words of getting off the car, it means that his trip is over, otherwise I am afraid you will die in the wilderness today."
WeChat vibrated one after another, there is no doubt that this is a series of accusation messages, and my cousin and I finally understood something.
I understand what Editor-in-Chief Qian means, if we hadn't looked in the mirror, maybe this brother had already brought us to our destination smoothly according to the set itinerary, and now everything may have to start again.
My cousin looked at the information in this WeChat and couldn't help but feel remorseful.
"Is our destination a cremation van?"
My cousin couldn't help it, and finally sent the message straight to the point.
WeChat rang quickly: "I had a meeting in the crematorium, my brother originally came to pick me up, ghosts take one step, mortals have to walk a thousand steps, and now everything is disrupted by you, so it will be a blink of an eye from the crematorium to Liu Village, and it will be equivalent to a dream for you......"
"So what do we do now?"
"You guys are out of shit luck, today Nancheng held the province's triennial imperial examination, the invigilator is Han Huanhou Zhang Yide, because many candidates cheated in the last imperial examination, so this year's scientific examination in Nancheng is the key supervision object appointed by the king of Yama, many upright celebrities in the ghost world have rushed over, you can only find Huanhou Zhang Yide at this time, and sue the dragon king with a complaint, your Tongtong will be ......saved at this time."
Speaking of this, we only understood the kindness of the editor-in-chief of Qian, and the identity of the editor-in-chief seemed to gradually become clear.
"You mean to kneel down to the chincha?"
The message on the other end of the phone replied quickly: "Almost, the place where Huan Hou stayed tonight in Nancheng is in Ding Ji Archway, I entrusted the relationship to get an invitation to meet guests, just about to go in to get the invitation was disturbed by you, the parking brother is Zhang Yide's grandson of our generation, as soon as I saw a living person break in, I directly terminated all the foreign guest meeting activities tonight, so it is estimated that it will be a little difficult to see Huan Hou tonight......"
My cousin and I were on a rollercoaster of ups and downs.
Since ancient times, there has been a saying that "Hades is good to see, but little ghosts are difficult", and without invitations, we must know what is at stake.
My cousin stood on the side of the road and sighed at me and said, "Your sister-in-law is really my nemesis...... no matter how perfect everything she plans."
After listening to my cousin's complaints, I was also a little uneasy, what Editor-in-Chief Qian said was right, the mirror in the ghost car can be reflected, but only the mirror brought by the yang person can't be reflected, this is the difference between people and ghosts.
Just as we were racking our brains, Tongtong's watch rang again.
"I remember, at two o'clock in the morning, there is a banquet for a mouse to marry a girl in the Liangli Temple, Zhang Huanhou will definitely be invited to attend, the two miles of the temple is the real body statue of the righteous rat, the righteous rat in the early years to save his companion from the belly of the snake, holding the snake tail and fighting for a long time before the snake spit out the companion from the mouth, this matter was later reported to the local land god to the Yama Luo Division, when the place only built a two-mile temple to worship, we just need to go to the Liangli Temple to worship the righteous rat first, with the reputation of the righteous rat will definitely present us with grievances!"
I know the land of Liangli Temple very well, and I went to the mountains and rivers with those crooks a few days ago.
This small temple is located in the Black Wind Ridge of Zhaodi Mountain in the south of the city, this place is very close to Liu Village, but there is a waterway in the middle, and if you want to go to the Black Wind Ridge, you must find a ferryman.
Legend has it that there are a few very cruel monkeys on the mountains of this place, this monkey is good at diving, but if there is a night walk, the monkeys first enter the water to overturn the boat as much as possible, if someone escapes, the monkeys often use a boulder to smash people's heads, and then eat human brains before leaving.
So at night, no ferryman dared to come out to ferry, only Niu Lao Er has insisted on night ferrying all these years.
In the past, there were more than a dozen Tujia villages of all sizes in Liangli Temple, and the total population of more than a dozen villages was more than 2,000.
Niu Lao Er, who came into being, became a celebrity in the county, and his deeds were also made into a propaganda film by the county's propaganda department, and the advertisements were hit on CCTV.
Niu Lao Er's body is obviously not as good as before over the years, when we passed a few days ago, it is said that the old cold leg has been living in the hospital, yesterday I saw a message from him in the public account, saying that he has now been discharged from the hospital with illness to work, but at ten o'clock in the evening must be closed.
I asked my cousin what time it was, and he looked at his watch and said, "It's half past eight!" ”
As soon as I heard this, I felt that our time was a little insufficient: "Cousin, without further ado, let's hurry over, it will take an hour or two to walk from here to the Immortal Crossing over the mountains and mountains, and we will leave now!" ”
Before leaving, my cousin also asked the editor-in-chief if he wanted to go with him.
Editor-in-chief Qian replied: "There are a lot of ghosts and elves in the Black Wind Mountains, and it is a little inconvenient for me to go alone as a single woman......"
My cousin and I had no choice but to embark on the journey in a hurry, and the two of us went non-stop, over the mountains and mountains, and finally arrived at Xianrendu at 9:50.
At this time, there was an old man smoking a dry tobacco pot next to Xianrendu, and when I looked at my cousin, my heart was happy.
Niu Lao Er was very enthusiastic: "Young man, do you want to ferry?" You're lucky today, I was on my first day on the job today, and I was just about to close the stall, and you came. ”
The old man had a thin mouth, and when he spoke, he didn't forget to feed the dry tobacco in his mouth.
When I saw the old man's smile, I naturally felt a lot of relief and said, "It's good to arrive, my cousin and I are afraid that we won't be able to catch up, Master Niu, can you hurry up, our brothers are in a hurry." ”
The tool of the ferry is very simple, a simple bamboo raft and a gasoline engine, this old man looks like a person who does business, as soon as we say this, he pulls up the starting lever of the gasoline engine, and the gasoline engine roars all at once.
The river in Nancheng comes out from the Qinba Mountain, and the terrain is quite complicated, especially this section of the waterway, which is not allowed to give up three points compared to the Three Gorges of the Yangtze River.
The river was thick with water vapor, and the low temperature made us more awake, and my cousin and I had already turned our attention to the surrounding scenery.
The sound of insects and birds on both sides of the strait is still endless, and it is really pleasant in a piece of blue mountains and secluded water.
But when I looked up and looked ahead, I felt a little terror.
"Cousin, do you see if there is also a row of bamboo rafts in the water area in front of you? And there was also a person standing on the bamboo raft! ”
Before I could finish my sentence, I heard a murmur in the water gradually leaning towards us, and then I looked at a bucket-thick shadow that was already surrounding our raft.
"Liangzi, have you noticed that this Niu Lao Er is a little weird, you look at his head, it doesn't look like a dragon head?"
My cousin asked me softly.
