Chapter Twenty-Six: The Birth of a Ghost Fetus (Part II)
Master's reaction immediately caused everyone to be shocked, not only the old woman and Zhang Zhishu, but even I followed the second monk to figure it out, could it be that something was bad? Obviously, looking at Master's expression, I already know that something is wrong, because Master has never joked, he is a serious person, and there is no nonsense to talk about in front of him.
"What's wrong?" Zhang Zhishu looked at the old woman and hurriedly asked the master, "Mr. Yang, you can't scare us, what's wrong?" ”
The master sighed deeply before he said, "Alas, it was also because I didn't tell you that this situation would have happened, if only I had told you earlier." Now that breakfast has been eaten, forget it, remember, from now until midnight, no matter how hungry your daughter-in-law is, you can't let her eat or even drink half a sip of water. She has a big appetite now, alas, in fact, where is her appetite, but the appetite of the ghost fetus, it is about to be born, I am afraid that I want to save enough strength to break through the last difficulty, if its aura before the birth can not be weakened, it will be difficult for me to get rid of it, now your daughter-in-law's food, the essence of it, has been absorbed by the ghost fetus! ”
"Huh? I'm me, I'm ...... I don't know this either, Mr. Yang, it's all my bad ......" The old woman suddenly shook her head and sighed with self-reproach, and then asked in a trembling voice: "I thought it was my daughter-in-law who wanted to eat, but I didn't expect it to be the ghost fetus, I knew this, I should have endured it and didn't let my daughter-in-law eat." Mr. Yang, you don't think this meal will be a bad thing, right? ”
The master thought for a moment and said, "The impact of a meal is probably not great, and the ghost fetus continues to replenish the essence in preparation for the needs of the birth, so from now until the time of the birth at night, it will inevitably make trouble, and your daughter-in-law will definitely continue to want to eat." But you remember, her current hunger is not really hungry, but the ghost fetus is hungry, you must hold on, you can't be soft-hearted, otherwise it will be a big deal! ”
"Good! I listen to your Mr. Yang! The old woman nodded hurriedly, but before she could finish speaking, she suddenly heard her daughter-in-law's shout from the inner room...... "Mother, I'm hungry, I want to eat......"
Hearing the voice of her daughter-in-law shouting that she was hungry, the old woman suddenly panicked, she wanted to open her mouth to agree, but when she saw the master in front of her, she was in a hurry. Maybe even she didn't expect how far away this promise and real adherence were, but it was enough to see that she was sincere to this daughter-in-law, otherwise she wouldn't be so anxious. The master didn't say anything, but motioned for the old woman to go into the inner room to comfort her daughter-in-law.
The old woman nodded again and again, and turned and went into the inner room.
At this moment, the master said to Zhang Zhishu: "You have to prepare something tonight...... Unexpectedly, this time it was the master who leaned into Zhang Zhishu's ear and muttered for a while, as if he had said a lot of words, and then stopped.
"Oops! I'll get these things for Mr. Yang before it gets dark tonight. Zhang Zhishu agreed, as if he had thought of something again, and hurriedly said: "Mr. Yang, do you need to find two more villagers to help deal with that ghost fetus that night?" You two masters and apprentices......"
The master shook his head and said, "Dealing with that ghost fetus does not depend on a large number of people, but a large number of people will make mistakes, and the two of us master and apprentice are enough to deal with the ghost fetus." ”
After sending away the anxious Zhang Zhishu, I found a gap and asked Master, "Master, what did you say to Zhang Zhishu?" Can't that be said? ”
"Of course you can't say!" Master glared at me, and then said, "Last time, I deliberately didn't say it, but this time I really want to solve the problem in private, otherwise one wrong step will make Niuwa Village doomed!" Ergou, if you are full, go and sleep, there are still big things to be busy tonight! With that, Master turned and walked out.
I hurriedly called out to Master, "Master, then, where are you going?" ”
The master said casually, "For the master, I want to find a convenient magic weapon." After speaking, the master walked out of the courtyard quickly, leaving me to look at the master's back blankly, until it disappeared, I turned around, but saw that the old woman was still in the inner room to take care of her daughter-in-law did not come out, and it was not good to disturb them, I looked left and right, I went directly to the west house, this west house is the place where widow Liu used to be a kitchen, I found the firewood pile behind the stove, lay on it and fell asleep.
The past two days have really exhausted me, and my bones have almost fallen apart, and if I don't rest, I'm afraid it will be really difficult to stay up until the night to help Master deal with that ghost fetus. I don't know why, the more sleepy I get, the more I can't sleep, I don't know how long it took, it seems to be asleep, and it doesn't seem to be asleep......
The sound of a mournful suona attracted my attention, I raised my eyes and looked, only to see a group of people on a dirt slope in front of me, and that group of people were all wearing white filial piety clothes and filial piety belts, as if they were doing a funeral. I frowned, what kind of funeral is this? Scratching my head, I couldn't help but step forward, and when I came to it, I saw that there were more than a dozen people around the grave, all of them were bowing their heads and wiping their tears, but I didn't see tear stains on their faces, but they didn't say a word, which made me feel so strange.
I looked at the grave again, and saw that there was indeed a coffin inside, but the coffin had not yet been covered, no! If a normal person dies, the coffin should be covered before the funeral, and when you get here, you should nail the coffin, why is there no coffin lid? Where did the coffin lid go?
I don't know why, I actually helped this group of people find the coffin lid, but I walked around and didn't find where the coffin lid was, I was stunned, so I had to come to them, just about to tell them how to bury this without a coffin lid? But at this time, I glanced coldly at the dead man lying in the coffin, and it was okay not to look at it, which almost scared me to the ground.
That, the corpse of an old man in the coffin, stared at his eyes and looked straight up, this and that...... This is clearly a blind eye!
I was so frightened that I stumbled backwards, but at this moment, I didn't know what I tripped under my feet, and I fell on my back, and I grinned in pain. I hurriedly patted the dust on my body, and just wanted to rub my buttocks, but at this juncture, I was horrified to see an old ox, the old ox was nothing strange, but the strange thing I saw was the two sharp horns on the head of the old ox, which were rushing towards me at the moment, and the old scalper was also rushing towards me fiercely, as if he was going to kill me with his horns!
"Ahh I was so frightened that I got up to the ground, turned my head and ran, but I saw a big tree with a crooked neck not far in front of me, I immediately jumped up, I didn't know that I just came to the tree, only to see the mad bull behind me actually mooed, the front hooves slammed on the ground, and pounced on me, the sharp horns were about to pierce my ass, I didn't care about anything else, flew up and kicked the horns......
"Two dogs! Two dogs! Two dogs, wake up! In a trance, Master's voice came into my ears urgently, I opened my eyes coldly, and sat up at once, but I saw that the room was lit with oil lamps, and on the side, Zhang Zhishu and Master were looking at me in astonishment, I looked around blankly, and the sky outside was already dark, so ...... Am I dreaming?
Master hurriedly asked, "Are you having a nightmare?" Sleep is shouting and kicking, and I don't think it's fun to fight on weekdays, right?! ”
"Uh......" I immediately lowered my head in embarrassment, and turned to ask Master in a low voice, "Master, when I fell asleep just now, did I really shout and kick?" I...... How could I be so stupid......"
"Alas, maybe it's because I've been too busy these days, I'm tired, and I'm deranged, and it's okay to be cranky." Master glared at me helplessly, and then said, "It's getting dark outside, you should hurry up, it's going to be very busy tonight!" After speaking, the master walked out with Zhang Zhishu, but I sat on the firewood pile in a daze, carefully recalling the dream just now, in that dream, how could I dream of a group of funeral people? And there is also an old man who is not blind, and there is ...... There was also a mad cow who tried to kill me with his horns, but luckily I ran fast, otherwise I might have died in my dreams.
It's not the dream, it's the dream, the people, and the cow, which I haven't seen in reality! Not even a single impression, what's going on? It's outrageous, alas, it's really outrageous, besides, if it were in reality, I shouldn't be afraid of a cow coming, anyway, I've also practiced, even if the cow strength I can't compare, so that the ingenuity can still deal with a mad cow, but in the dream, I seem to be a lonely and desperate person, not even a little counterattack ability, just thinking about retreating, running for my life.
After thinking about it for a long time, I put aside the strange nightmare for the time being, stood up and patted the dust on my body, and then walked into the hall, in the hall, the master was busy with something, I looked carefully, and saw that there were a lot of copper coins piled up on the table, and there were slender red ropes, and the master was using those copper coins and red ropes to string together at the moment, what was this doing?
I asked curiously, "Master, what are you doing here?" ”
When the master heard this, he said casually without looking back: "Didn't you always complain that the teacher didn't make you a magic weapon these days?" Now as a teacher, I will make a copper coin sword for you, so that you can also protect yourself, and subdue demons! "Hearing Master's words, I looked at the copper coin that had been strung in Master's hand, and sure enough, it was the hilt of a copper coin sword, and my heart was happy, is this the sun coming out of the west? How could Master have thought of making me a magic weapon?!
