Half a month later, the weather warmed up, the land froze, and the matter of bringing river water into the fields was also opened. Li Chenghe once again became the object of discussion among the people in the town, and while praising him, there were also some different voices. Some people found out that this Mrs. Li Wu had not shown up for a long time, and they speculated whether something had happened.

No matter who asked, Li Chenghe smiled and said, "She is not in good health and is resting at home." But the more calm he became, the more outrageous the speculation became. Fortunately, Banxia, who served the Wu family, often came out, and some people confirmed Li Chenghe's statement from her mouth.

It is not difficult to divert river water into the field, as long as you dig a ditch, but everyone has money to contribute, and it is a powerful contribution. But what worries Li Chenghe is that there is a section of this ditch that will pass through the east of the town, and when they heard about it, many people retreated. There are also some people who do not believe in evil, and they can't bear the persuasion of their families, so they have found a few excuses.

When he told the old man Yu about this, the angry old man patted the table and said, "A bunch of foolish worms, what's the matter, the east of the town has become a ghost land, don't you get close to the living?" I think Heyi and Huachi are living well, no worse than any other! ”

Li Chenghe asked cautiously, "Old man Yu, have the two of them really been to Zhendong?" The old man Yu glared, "What, is that fake?" He asked the two of them to call him and said in front of Li Chenghe, "You ask yourself." ”

Hearing that Li Chenghe came to inquire about what happened in the east of the town that night, Zhong Huachi immediately came to his senses, and said with his eyebrows fluttering, "If you want to ask about the situation that day, listen to me slowly!" That night was dark and windy, and I couldn't see my fingers. The two of us wore night clothes, and after a few incidents, we entered the east of the town. After crossing a few streets, suddenly, a dark shadow flew in front of me with a cold swish!"

He said it with emotion, and Li Chenghe, who was frightened at that time, turned pale. Yan Heyi had no choice but to interrupt him, "Can you tell the truth, Master Li, don't listen to him, that day, we did encounter something strange in Zhendong." ”

Yan Heyi simply told the events of that night, although he didn't exaggerate, he still heard Li Chenghe in a cold sweat, "According to Yan Gongzi, where is there indeed a ghost, otherwise how could he fall down when he stepped on a person's head?" Old man Yu, I think, this matter needs to be thought about carefully, otherwise it will be difficult to convince the public. ”

"If you want to dispel everyone's doubts, there is a way that is most suitable." Yan Heyi said to Old Man Yu, "I will go in Huachi again, if we can come out alive, everyone will naturally believe that it is not a terrible place, and it will not bring disaster to anyone." ”

"No, no, absolutely not!" Li Chenghe's face immediately changed, "Young Master Yan, Young Master Zhong, I can't let the two of you take risks, perhaps, I'll think of another way!" But the way Li Chenghe can think of is to reprocess money again and again. Even though he has paid a penny a day, people still have a wait-and-see attitude.

So the old man Yu had no choice but to agree to Yan Heyi's proposal, and held a grand and grand send-off ceremony on the stage in the town.

Twelve jars were neatly arranged in two rows, each tied with red silk. The old man Yu was in the middle, Li Chenghe, Yan Heyi, and Zhong Huachi were standing on both sides, and the people below heard that the two sons were going to Zhendong to catch ghosts, some were timid, some were surprised, and some did not believe it.

Old Man Yu cleared his throat and said, "This time, the two sons are not only to eliminate harm for the people, but also to go to a piece of the big guy's heart. If they return safely in three days, it will be enough to show that the rumors are just rumors. ”

Someone shouted, "Old man Yu, if they can come back, we are willing to dig a ditch without your old money!" Everyone echoed, and the old man Yu stroked his beard and laughed, "Okay, manly man, once you say it, the horse is difficult to chase, it is appropriate, Huachi, drink this bowl of Zhuangxing wine, you can go!" ”

It was dusk, and the sun was setting and it was getting dark. Yan Heyi clasped his fists at the old man and said to everyone, "Everyone, let's go!" The big guy personally sent them across the small bridge to the east of the town, and watched for a long time before leaving. He Bi stood by the bridge and wanted to go with them several times, but was stopped by Yichun, "They are very dangerous to go, and they are already too busy to take care of themselves." If you go, will you not be a burden to them? If they want to take care of you, they will inevitably be restricted, and if they are injured because of you, can you go with your heart? ”

He Bi thought about these words carefully, and also felt that it made sense, so he had to sigh and say, "Okay, as far as your big reason is concerned, I just don't go." But I have to come and wait for them every day, and you must not stop me! Looking at Hebi's anxious back, Yichun couldn't help but sigh, turned to look in the direction of the east of the town, and stood alone for a long time.

This time I came to the east of the town again, and the preparation of Zhonghua Pond was very sufficient. When Yan Heyi saw him take out garlic, glutinous rice, black donkey's hooves, and black dog blood in the pig's bladder from the cloth bag he was carrying, he couldn't help frowning and shaking his head, "Do you think these things are useful?" ”

Zhong Huachi patted his head in annoyance and said, "Look at me, how did you forget such the most important thing?" He casually took out another pile of rune paper and shook it in front of Yan Heyi, "With these, I am not afraid of any powerful zombies!" ”

Yan Heyi lit the torch, and the surroundings suddenly lit up. The last time I came, I was in a hurry, and I wasn't very impressed by this place. This revisit to the old place, he has more calm. Zhong Huachi asked, "Where are we going now, the only place we are familiar with is that ......."

"It seems that you are comfortable being served by those girls, so you can't forget it!" Yan Heyi thought that the strangeness in the Embroidered Red Pavilion had not yet been figured out, and it would be a good idea to go again. At that moment, the two of them identified the direction and went to the Embroidered Red Pavilion.

The streets were deserted, not a single sound, not even a single figure. Thinking of the lively scene when he came last time, Zhong Huachi wondered, "Why is it so quiet, is it because we came at the wrong time, haven't they gotten up yet?" The two of them came to the gate of the Embroidered Red Pavilion, only to see that the door was closed and the inside was also pitch black.

Yan Heyi knocked lightly on the door twice, and when he saw that no one responded, he tried to push on the door, and with a "squeak", the wooden door opened a crack. A musty smell came out of the crack in the door, and Zhong Huachi immediately pinched his nose and said, "What's the situation?" Yan Heyi shouted at him, and walked in lightly with a torch.

The beams of the house are crooked, there are dust and cobwebs everywhere, and the tables, chairs and benches are rotten and moldy, and they are placed crookedly, and it is no longer possible to see the magnificence of the past. Zhong Huachi exaggeratedly shouted, "No", and couldn't help but open the door curtain to see the room where he was "imprisoned" at that time!
