Volume 1 The Jackal Worships the Moon_Chapter 20 The Centipede
I went to the village first to find my motorcycle, but luckily the little black dog was still in my bag, and the village was peaceful, as if the villagers were not aware of what had happened last night.
I didn't think much of it, they didn't know what it was best for, so they rode home on their motorbikes first, and after leaving the puppy at home, I took the car to the city.
I was a little nervous along the way, although the old witch who gave me an evil spell was beaten away by Luojia, but I am a top-level yang body and yin life, I am afraid that she will always have to worry about it, but fortunately, nothing happened along the way, and I successfully arrived in the city.
Since I saw the paper cart at the gas station, a lot has happened in this time, and I feel like I am in a different world.
After getting off the bus, I took the bus to the City God Temple, and after getting off the bus, I had to pass by the hotel where I had stayed before, and that frightening night made my heart palpitate, if it wasn't for the spirit talisman that I had given to me by Daochang Chen, I am afraid it would not be so simple.
I thought to myself that there must be something unclean in this hotel. I didn't take two steps, and I met the neurotic aunt that night, she was still in that dirty clothes, carrying a plastic bag in her hand, this aunt was weird, a little evil, I subconsciously detoured away from her.
When I arrived at Chen Daochang's incense and candle shop, because it was already noon, there were not so many people who came to buy incense and candles, but I didn't see Chen Daochang, and I saw a white-haired mother-in-law sitting at the door selling incense and candles from a distance.
I thought to myself, is this Daochang Chen's wife?
I walked over, just as Daochang Chen's wife sold a handful of incense candles, and when she saw me standing at the door, my mother-in-law smiled and asked, "Baby, do you buy incense candles?" ”
I shook my head and said, "Mother-in-law, I don't buy incense candles, I'm here to find your wife Chen Daochang." ”
As soon as I finished speaking, my mother-in-law said, "Baby, are you in the wrong place?" ”
I said, "How could I find the wrong thing, I provoked something unclean before, or did your wife Chen Daochang exorcise evil spirits for me, I came to him for something, isn't he there?" ”
After hearing this, the mother-in-law's face suddenly turned bad, and she said coldly, "What's the matter with your baby?" Are you deliberately making fun of me, an old woman? It's been almost half a month since my wife left, what nonsense are you talking about? If you don't buy incense and candles, hurry up, don't give me bad luck here. ”
When I heard my mother-in-law say this, I was stunned for a moment, wondering if I was really in the wrong place. I quickly took two steps back and looked up at the signboard above, and that was right. I'll just say, Chen Daochang's incense and candle shop is very easy to find, how can you find the wrong one.
I said to my mother-in-law, "Mother-in-law, I really didn't admit my mistake. When I came here the other day, you weren't there. Is Daochang Chen not at home? ”
The mother-in-law was a little unhappy and said, "Why are you unreasonable?" I told you, my wife has been gone for half a month, and he is not a Taoist, if you don't believe it, you go and ask the person next door, I have opened an incense and candle shop here for more than ten years, and everyone nearby knows me. ”
I'm skeptical, it's incredible. An aunt who sells silver jewelry next to her seemed to hear the movement, and came out to ask Granny Zhang what was wrong, if I bought incense and candles and gave fake money.
Granny Zhang said, "No. This baby came to me and said that I wanted to find my wife, and said that my wife showed him evil a few days ago, and my wife has been gone for almost half a month, so why would she show him evil. ”
The aunt who sells silver jewelry looked me up and down and said, "Young man, I see that your current appearance is evil, Uncle Chen has just been gone for half a month, and Granny Zhang went back to her hometown for funeral a few days ago, and the door of the incense and candle shop has not been opened, you are afraid that you have dreamed of it." ”
As soon as I saw this aunt, I was immediately startled and said excitedly, "Auntie, is it you?" ”
My aunt looked at me with a very strange look and said, "You know me?" ”
I said excitedly, "Of course I know, why don't I know." The day before yesterday, I was not feeling well and went to the city hospital to see a doctor, and it was you who told me that Chen Daochang, who sells incense and candles in the Chenghuang Temple, will see evil, and he used to be a Taoist priest in Qingcheng Mountain in Sichuan, and he is very spiritual. Once your son urinated on someone's grave and fell into an evil spirit, it was Chen Daochang who helped your son solve it. You asked me to come to Daochang Chen, don't you remember? ”
My aunt looked at me with a frightened face, and I thought she remembered, but my aunt scolded and said, "You dead baby, your son has just fallen into evil." I don't know you at all, when did I tell you what to find Daochang Chen. I see if there's something wrong with your baby's head. ”
I'm completely stunned now, how did this change all of a sudden, Chen Daochang died, and my aunt said she didn't know me, which doesn't make sense. The aunt spoke very loudly, she roared like this, and some people from the shops next to her came out to watch, and they surrounded me in the middle one by one and pointed at me, and many people said, this baby will not run out of the neurological hospital, right? If you're talking nonsense, let's call the police.
I tried my best to explain: "I'm not a nervous disorder, I really came to see Chen Daochang the day before yesterday." By the way, this thing on my body was given to me by Daochang Chen, mother-in-law, do you know it? ”
I took out the box that Daochang Chen gave me from my bag, which contained the bronze dagger that Daochang Chen gave me. The mother-in-law took the box and said in surprise, "Isn't this the box that my old man used to hold dry tobacco?" How is it in your hands? ”
I hurriedly said: "I really saw Chen Daochang, this is what he gave me, and there is a bronze dagger in it, which he also gave me to defend myself against evil spirits, you see, I really didn't lie." ”
I can't figure out what's going on at this time, could it be that the Chen Daochang I saw before is a ghost? It's unlikely, and it's really strange that this aunt actually said she didn't know me!
Granny Zhang opened the box suspiciously, and then her face changed, and the box in her hand fell to the ground at once, scolding me loudly, I don't know why, picked up the box and looked at it, this Nima surprised me when I saw it!
Where is there a bronze dagger inside, only a centipede more than ten centimeters long, frightened me to shake it, the box suddenly fell to the ground again, I took two steps back in horror, my face changed greatly and said to myself: "Impossible!" This is impossible, Chen Daochang obviously gave me a bronze dagger, how could it become a centipede? ”
I couldn't figure out what the hell was going on.
The frightened Granny Zhang said: "This baby must be nervous, everyone hurry up and call the police, let the police arrest him." ”
The people around me really took out their mobile phones and started to call the police, and I reacted at this time, squeezed through the crowd, and ran away.
If I don't run away again, when the police come, they won't arrest me. I ran out of breath for a long time, and when I looked back and saw that no one was chasing me, I stopped out of breath.
My head is messed up at this time, I obviously met Chen Daochang, how can I say that he died before I saw him? And the bronze dagger that Chen Daochang gave me turned into a centipede, could it be that the bronze dagger that someone found last night was a treasure, so he transferred the dagger to me?
It's unlikely that if I think about it, even if it's discovered, these people don't have to go to great lengths to transfer my bag, just take it away?
But Granny Zhang said that the box seems to be used by her wife to fill dry tobacco, and the husband and wife of decades must not admit mistakes to each other, I thought about it, and I didn't understand what was wrong with it!
At this time, I suddenly remembered that I still have Chen Daochang's mobile phone number here, and I will call him to know.
Thinking of this, I quickly took out my mobile phone and found Chen Daochang's mobile phone number, just when I was about to dial out, I hesitated, if Chen Daochang was really dead, then what I met that day was a ghost, can I get through this call?
I hesitated for a long time, but I still didn't hold back, dialed the number, and waited for the process of connecting the phone, I was nervous in my heart, and my whole heart was raised to my throat.
Just as I was thinking about it, the phone finally came through, and a beeping sound came from the earpiece.
