Chapter 90: Setting the Trap

I didn't expect the second baby to be like this, and I still think about his brother Shishan, who is really a sensible and good boy. This situation and this scene can't help but make a group of old men sigh for it, the relationship between these two brothers is really deep...... When Shi Laosan heard Erwa's words, tears fell, and a middle-aged man who looked rough and burly was deeply moved to tears by the words of a fifteen-year-old boy.

Shi Laosan gritted his teeth and said to Erwa gently: "Erwa, your brother will be fine, don't worry, Uncle Shi will help you find the dwarf mule and save your and your brother's lives even if he is desperate, don't worry!" ”

After saying these words, Shi Laosan's voice was already a little choked, and then he walked out of the inner room with his fists clenched, my nose was also a little sour, and I comforted the second baby, and like Shi Laosan, I turned around and rushed out of the inner room.

Only the master and the second baby whispered something, and then walked out slowly, Shi Laosan saw the master come out, and immediately said angrily: "Mr. Yang, I don't care, even if I take my life this time, I can't let these two children die, I'll go to the villagers, even if I kneel down and beg them, I have to let them accompany me into the ghost forest again!" ”

Before Shi Laosan walked out of the door in a huff, he was stopped by the master: "Brother Shi, don't get excited, we must catch the dwarf mule this time, but how to catch it, we must think about the plan in advance, you must know that the dwarf mule is a bit of a wise mountain spirit, elusive, and some subtle Taoism, to catch the dwarf mule, it is not enough to be full of blood!" ”

"Yes, Uncle Shi, my master is right." I hurriedly comforted: "Uncle Shi, since my master has promised to help catch the dwarf mule, he will definitely come up with a proper way, so let's listen to how my master arranges it." ”

Mountain spirits and ghosts, and the mountain spirits are in front of the ghosts, it can be seen that the mountain spirits really have to deal with them, but they are more difficult to get rid of than the ghosts, and the ghosts may be able to get rid of them with charms or magic weapons, and the mountain spirits are different, the mountain spirits are by the mountains and rivers, and the essence flowing between the mountains is the foundation of cultivation, that is to say, the deep mountains and old forests are the nests of the mountain spirits, if you want to deal with the mountain spirits, at least you have to find them, if you can't even find them, let alone others.

Another point, the mountain spirit is not an ordinary person who wants to catch it, if it is not for some Taoism, if it is not for some good fortune, I am afraid that it is difficult to even encounter, and the mountain spirit appears from time to time, wandering in the mountains, wisdom, cunning, may be unimaginable to ordinary people.

Therefore, Shi Laosan's courage is commendable, but it is indeed a little impossible to deal with the mountain spirit with courage alone.

You know, it's a mountain spirit, not a game in the mountains......

Shi Laosan sighed deeply, hugged his hands together and smashed them, and said, "Mr. Yang, then what should you do?" I'll listen to you! ”

The master nodded and said, "You first find a few young men to stay at Shishan's house, and then find a black cat, tie it to the door, and let them not leave the door for half a step, so that the Shishan family is not worried, and then there is the matter of catching dwarf mules, you go to find a bag of corn on the cob, and then find a red rope, the red rope must be strong enough, and then ......."

By the time Master had explained everything, half an hour had passed, but I hardly understood anything about these strange practices, but time was pressing, and I didn't bother to ask Master what he was saying, so I had to wait until afterwards to ask.

After another half an hour, the three of us walked out of the stone village and walked briskly towards the ghost forest. Shi Laosan carried a bag of corn cobs on his back, and said with doubts on his face: "Mr. Yang, why did you go into the ghost forest late at night?" Can this be seen clearly? ”

The master smiled slightly: "It's easy to catch late at night, do you think you can catch it by seeing clearly during the day?" Then you have been busy all day, why didn't you catch it? ”

"This ......" Shi Laosan was speechless for a moment, and then said: "That's it, we searched for a day during the day, and we didn't even find the shadow of a dwarf mule." But Mr. Yang asked me to carry a bag of corn on the cob, can I catch a dwarf mule? I don't quite understand ......"

The master raised the cloth bag in his hand and said, "The corn can't catch the dwarf mule, and the things that catch the dwarf mule are carried in my hand!" ”

Shi Laosan immediately said in surprise: "Isn't that the fishing net you asked me to find?" Just that can catch a dwarf mule? But the fishing net will break as soon as it bites, what if it runs away? Mr. Yang, are you really useful for getting these? ”

Master smiled and said: "This fishing net has been soaked in the blood of black dogs, and the dwarf mule is most afraid of black dogs, maybe for ordinary people, this fishing net may not be strong, but for the dwarf mule, this fishing net is simply a heaven and earth net, once you go in, you can never get out, covered by the fishing net soaked in the blood of the black dog, the dwarf mule will inevitably be very honest, and it is easy to catch, okay, just say this, don't ask any more, the front is to the ghost forest, the dwarf mule is not an ordinary animal, waiting for you to catch, it is a mountain spirit, We can hear all the voices in the mountains, and if we talk too much, it will surely ruin our plans! ”

Shi Laosan just wanted to pick up the rolling pin in his hand and ask what this was for, but after hearing Master's words, he didn't dare to ask any more. I smiled: "Uncle Shi, don't ask any more, my master won't tell you everything, if you know the doorway, won't you all be arrested by you in the future?" ”

"Huh!" Shi Laosan smiled embarrassedly and said, "That's the same, the dwarf mule is a baby, if you know how to catch it, then you can't catch it?" I still don't know, lest I can't help but catch it in the future and get into trouble! ”

In fact, I know the fun of this, the rolling pin is just a rolling pin in the eyes of ordinary people, but in the terminology, there is also a wicked saying, called knocking on the mountain and shaking the tiger generalissimo, as for how there is this statement, it was originally an interesting story, but Shi Laosan does not know, but I have heard that the rolling pin is naturally used for rolling dough, and the dough shaped like a hill is rolled flat, such as leveling a mountain, the mountain can be flattened, and what is in the mountain must not be swept clean, the master asked Shi Laosan to carry a rolling pin, which is nothing more than to deal with dwarf mules.

However, this time I went to catch the dwarf mule, but it made me feel interesting, compared to dealing with evil ghosts and zombies, this catching dwarf mules is like me catching game in the deep mountains, I didn't expect the master to have this hand.

When he arrived at the Ghost Forest, Master asked Shi Laosan to pour out those corn cobs, then tie them from the middle with red, tie one corn cob every other zhang, and then pull the red rope all the way to the deepest part of the Ghost Forest. After doing this, Master asked Shi Laosan and I to dig a hole at the source of the red rope, and then put the fishing net soaked in black dog blood inside, everything was ready, and the Master beckoned: "Get out of here, leave the ghost forest, and none of you should come in before dawn!" ”

"Uh......" I was stunned and said, "Master, why don't I stay and help you?" Are you doing it alone? ”

Shi Laosan was also full of curiosity, and he didn't know what the master would do next, so he hurriedly said: "Anyway, it's all here, or let me and Ergou stay and help Mr. Yang collect the net, so as not to let the dwarf mule run away!" ”

The master thought about it, his face suddenly became serious, as if he suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly said: "No need, I'm worried that something will happen tonight, you two will go back to Stone Village now, you don't need to worry about it here, I will go back after dawn, but you have to remember that you have to wait until dawn no matter what, you know?" ”

I asked in surprise, "Master, what can happen in Stone Village?!" ”

Master glared at me and said, "Why is that nonsense! Don't go back yet! It's late and everything we've done has been in vain, go ahead! ”

I pouted, I couldn't resist the master, so I had to walk out of the ghost forest with Shi Laosan inexplicably, I thought about it, but I still couldn't think of what medicine was being sold in Master's gourd, so I casually asked Shi Laosan: "Uncle Shi, what medicine do you think is being sold in my master's gourd?" Why did you suddenly let us go back to Stone Village? That's weird, isn't it?! ”

Shi Laosan smiled bitterly: "Ergou, Mr. Yang is your master, even you don't know what your master is thinking, and I don't know even more." ”

I walked slowly, tossing back and forth, I knew that I would be driven back when I arrived in the ghost forest, so I didn't go, the master could do the work alone, and he had to drag me and Shi Laosan to go together. Just as I was complaining as I walked, I suddenly heard a chaotic dog barking from Stone Village, and it seemed that the dogs in the whole village were barking wildly. Hearing this scream, Shi Laosan glanced in the direction of Stone Village in astonishment, and said hurriedly: "In the middle of the night, are the dogs in Stone Village crazy?" What's it called?! ”

"Uncle Shi, is there usually such a situation?" My heart couldn't help but tighten, it seemed that Master had asked me to go back to Stone Village, and something was really going to happen.

Shi Laosan shook his head and said, "Usually there is no such situation, but last time that Long Po suddenly ran to Stone Village, and the dogs in the whole village barked wildly, Long Po ...... Yes? Could it be that Long Po is going to Stone Village again tonight?! ”

My face was also unusually ugly, it seemed that Shi Laosan coincided with what I thought, and hurriedly said: "Uncle Shi, let's go back to Stone Village quickly, Master asked you to find a few young men and a black cat in Shishan's house before, so to speak, Master expected that something would happen to Shishan's family tonight, but just now he drove us back to Shishan, maybe tonight's matter is not so simple, let's go back quickly!" ”
