Chapter Ninety-Three: Embroidered Shoes

Cui Yue looked at the situation in front of him and muttered in his heart.

"Hey, have you seen it, why isn't there even anyone in the mourning hall?"

Zhang Hao turned his head suspiciously, also stunned.

"Hey, it's weird, why are you here?"

"Shhh

Zhang Hao recalled carefully and slapped his thigh suddenly.

"Huh? Don't say it, it's true! The whole village was unusually quiet. ”

"So all the oddities in this village are very problematic."

Zhang Hao suddenly thought of something, looked mysterious, leaned in front of Cui Yue's ear, and whispered a few words.

"What? How can it be! ”

Cui Yue's face was shocked, and his eyes glared at the boss.

"He Cui Ye, you are quiet, what am I bluffing you to do, you don't believe it, go over and take a look, it's right there!"

Following the direction pointed by Zhang Hao, at a glance, it was an inconspicuous small side house in the courtyard near the southwest direction, which was in disrepair and the doors and windows were broken. There is a string of rusty iron locks hanging on the simple gate panel, and ordinary people can't really find it if they don't pay attention to it.

Zhang Hao quietly walked to him, looked left and right, and raised his head to make Cui Yue come over to take a look.

As soon as Cui Yue approached the door panel, a smell of dirty rot came to his nose in the room, and he looked in along the gap in the door panel.

"This, this is ......"

Cui Yue's head buzzed, as if he had been hit by electricity, and he was covered in a cold sweat!

A pair of embroidered shoes!

It's that pair of red and pink mandarin duck embroidered shoes!

The house is not big, and there are no other furnishings, there is a small square table against the wall in the south of the house, and there are incense burners and candles on the case, and some moldy and spoiled tribute, which seems to have not been taken care of for a long time.

The most unbelievable thing is that there is an embroidered shoe in the middle of the case!

What's even more strange is that although the room is dilapidated and dim, the embroidered shoes are still brightly colored, as if they were newly put on not long ago.

Cui Yue saw it clearly, the pair of embroidered shoes on the case was the pair of red and pink embroidered shoes worn by the ghost shadow of Tsing Yi before, which was absolutely the same!

I really saw a ghost, I couldn't understand it, all over the world, there is a saying of worshiping gods and worshipping ghosts, but what I saw today really greatly subverted Cui Yue's knowledge, and someone would actually offer a pair of embroidered shoes in his own home!

Cui Yue felt that this matter was getting more and more weird, this ghost in Tsing Yi did have a certain connection with the whole village, which was completely different from raising little ghosts and offering hairy ghosts and gods, and it was different in nature.

Cui Yue told Zhang Hao the origin of the embroidered shoes, which also frightened Zhang Hao.

"You mean, they're offering a ghost? No, it's not, it's a ghost's broken shoe? ”

Cui Yue shrugged his shoulders, don't look at me like this, I can't figure it out.

"That's right!"

Cui Yue hurriedly pulled Zhang Hao back to the mourning hall, knelt in front of the spirit, saluted three incense sticks, and carefully asked Xiaofeng while burning paper.

"Xiaofeng, where is your mother?"

Xiaofeng had already cried into tears, crying while talking.

"My mother, my mother fainted a while ago, and this will go to the side room to rest."

Cui Yue originally pinned his hopes on Xiaofeng's mother to see if he could ask some useful clues. This will have to continue to ask Xiaofeng.

"Oh, that auntie must be overly sad, just rest for a while, don't worry too much."

"Well, Brother Cui, I know, thank you."

Cui Yue asked casually.

"Xiaofeng, there are quite a lot of people just now, how can they all go back, it's still early."

"Brother Cui, the habits in our village are different from other places, people disperse before midnight, and there is no vigil in the second half of the night."

"It's the first time I've heard of this custom of yours."

Zhang Hao felt strange and interjected.

Xiao Feng shook his head, and he didn't seem to understand.

"Xiaofeng, I passed by that small side house just now, and I accidentally saw the offering platform, it seems that it is the same as our hometown, we have the habit of worshiping the immortal family."

Xiao Feng saw Cui Yue pointing to the small side room, and suddenly his expression became very strange, and he was silent.

"Xiaofeng, did I say something wrong, if there is anything particular, I will just say it casually, don't take it to heart."

Cui Yue noticed Xiaofeng's expression and said deliberately.

Xiao Feng wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, as if he was embarrassed, glanced at the small side room, there was a little fear in his eyes, and finally spoke.

In fact, whether it is to offer hairy ghosts and gods. Or raising a ghost, you generally don't tell outsiders, because after all, it's not a glorious thing, and when others interact with you, they will also be afraid, so everyone is silent about this kind of thing.

"Brother Cui, you're right, there are indeed ghosts and gods in that small side room."

Cui Yue and Zhang Hao exchanged glances, it seems that there is a door! At least from Xiao Feng's mouth, I learned that their family was indeed supporting the ghost in green clothes.

Xiaofeng felt that Cui Yue and Zhang Hao were all good buddies, and they ran all the way to send their father to the earth for peace, and this kindness was considered his own brother in his heart, so he had no scruples about them, and told him about his offering to ghosts and gods.

"Oh, Xiaofeng, is it the same as our hometown, is it for the hairy ghosts?"

Zhang Hao asked eagerly.

"Well, I don't know much about that, because my father never allowed us to enter that side room, not even the door. Every time, he went in alone and came out alone. Remember, remember one time """

Xiao Feng fell into deep memories and muttered to his lips.

Cui Yue pointed to the small side room and said in a low voice.

"Xiaofeng, don't you know what's in that house?"

Xiao Feng's face changed for a moment, and he said in a trembling voice.

"Yes, an embroidered shoe! At that time, I was still young, and I always couldn't help but be curious, I wanted to know what was inside, and I secretly ran in, and saw an embroidered shoe on the table, and I was frightened at first, and I ran out hurriedly, who knew that as soon as I went out, I ran into my father, and my father knew that I was very angry when I came in, and my ass was opened, and I haven't been in that side room since. ”

"So the embroidered shoe has been around for a long time."

Xiao Feng nodded, thoughtful.

"I've had it since I can remember, and I heard my dad occasionally mention that he already had offerings at home when he was young."

Cui Yue was stunned, this thing has been around for dozens of years, maybe even earlier! In this way, it seems to have a lot to do with this big stone grinding plate! No wonder it's a fine thing dressed like that!

Before Cui Yue could ponder carefully, he heard something even stranger!
