Chapter 13: The Paper Man
It was only the second year of junior high school on this day, and there was no moonlight, and I was in a hurry to catch the car, and I didn't dare to go too fast because I was not sure.
But the donkey, who was walking and pulling the cart, suddenly stood there in shock, and then I heard a woman's voice in front of me.
The woman cried out as if she had been touched by a little donkey.
Realizing that it was a collision, I didn't wonder why there were still people on the road in the middle of the night, so I quickly got out of the car and went over to take a look.
When I looked closer, I saw that it was a young woman, with a red head tied around her head, and a large black braid hanging to one side, sitting on the ground rubbing her feet and neck.
This woman is wearing a big cotton jacket with gold flowers on a red background, which looks a little strange, maybe there is something wrong with the cut of this dress, not only is the pattern very old-fashioned, but also does not show her waist very much, and the woman is wrapped like a bucket.
"It's dark, I didn't see anyone on the road, I'm sorry, are you okay?" Seeing that this was a big girl, I didn't dare to reach out rashly to help.
"Little brother, my feet hurt." The woman said anxiously, looking up at me.
I have never seen such an ugly person since I was a child, this woman's eyebrows are thick like a man, and she is still a very obvious big and small eye, and the nose is also small as if there is nothing, and the old thick lips are red.
Coupled with a gentleman's national face, this is really ...... It's scary.
I moved back, and told her not to worry, and asked her where her house was, and I would send her back and pay her for her medical expenses.
With this talk, I learned that this woman was also from Linjiazhuang, working in the embroidery workshop in the village in front of her, and maybe she was in the same embroidery workshop as Lin Miao, but she was not knocked down by a donkey, but because she was afraid of this kind of domestic animal since she was a child, so she was so frightened that she accidentally broke her foot.
I estimated that Uncle Li's donkey was scared enough when I saw the appearance of this woman.
I thought in my heart that I didn't ask more, but this woman didn't dare to take a donkey cart, so I had to carry her on my back, thinking that I was not far out of Linjiazhuang, and it was nothing to carry a woman on my back, so I walked back with this woman on my back.
But after walking for a while, I found that this woman was really heavy, heavier than my grandfather, so tired that I was sweating, looking up at the Linjiazhuang, it was indeed not far, I gritted my teeth and did not squeak, and continued to walk with this woman on my back.
It wasn't until I walked for a while that this Lin Jiazhuang hadn't arrived, I was in a hurry, and then I looked at the village, which was still so far away from me, as if I had been carrying this woman on my back for half a day.
I found that something was wrong, and my brain buzzed, and my scalp exploded, and I suddenly felt that this woman was a little familiar.
Thinking about the place where I got off just now, isn't that the small temple in Linjiazhuang?
Last time, Lin Miao bumped into something dirty here, and I was even more nervous when I thought of this, but I didn't stop, and continued to walk forward with the woman on my back, chatting in my mouth, and casually asked what the woman's name was.
But this woman lay on my back and didn't speak for a long time.
I asked her how old she was, and she still didn't squeak.
Suddenly, my brain was sweating, although I really have never seen someone as ugly as this woman, but when I helped Lin Miao settle things a year ago, I burned a very ugly paper figure for the dirty thing that entangled Lin Miao.
That paper figure is very similar to the woman on my back, just as ugly.
Thinking of Lin Miao telling me about the strange thing about her second uncle's paper bearer, I was so scared that tears were about to come out.
Especially, this time I went out to send Lin Miao home, I didn't bring my grandfather's canvas pocket at all, and I didn't have any cinnabar and charms that could drive away evil spirits, and now I was blinded by this ghost thing, and I didn't know where I was heading, anyway, this was definitely not the way to Linjiazhuang.
I thought I had to get rid of this woman as soon as possible, or something would happen sooner or later.
When it comes to exorcism, there is no such thing as a guy who takes advantage of it, so I thought of the ghost of Wu Lao Kan'er who drove away Wu Lao Kan'er on Sister-in-law Liu last time, but in fact, it only used a little of my blood.
Thinking of this, I instantly gained confidence, and my guts were fat, and I secretly bit the tip of my tongue as I walked with this woman on my back.
I don't know if it's because the tip of my tongue hurts, or because of my own blood, as soon as I saw a flower in front of me, the Linjiazhuang that I couldn't walk away from disappeared, and in front of me was a black cliff.
My foot was on the edge of the cliff, and my other foot was still moving forward.
I shuddered, and stopped, and the stones on the edge of the cliff rolled down a little bit.
I threw the woman behind me to the ground with a flick of my arm, turned around and spat at her.
In fact, it is blood foam in the mouth.
But after I vomited the blood foam, I realized that it was not a woman at all, it was just a paper figure.
I leaned over and took a closer look, and found that the paper figure was indeed the same as the one I bought last time, but it was certainly not the one I burned it, because it was already burned to ashes, and it was impossible to change it back.
If you meet a layman and see the paper figure you burned back, you may be really scared half to death, but I know these tricks very well, although I am also scared enough, but it is all because I am too nervous, who let Lin Miao tell me the story of the second uncle's paper man, which scared me so much that it left a psychological shadow.
Moreover, when it comes to deception, my grandfather is an expert, and it is easy to deceive gods and ghosts.
However, the gods mentioned here do not refer to the gods, but to the gods, that is, peers, to pay attention to it, this is called fighting.
I came to my senses for a while, picked up the paper figure and looked at it, and sure enough, I found a charm behind the paper figure.
This is someone deliberately waiting for me in the small temple of Linjiazhuang and stumbling on me.
Speaking of which, it should have nothing to do with the dirty thing that entangled Lin Miao, and the person who stumbled me was from Lin Jiazhuang.
Because he knew that I had come to Linjiazhuang and would only go back at night, so he had the opportunity to make a mistake on my way home.
I looked back at the old steep hillside, and I still had palpitations, if I woke up half a second later, this foot would really go down to find my grandfather.
This person clearly wants my life and vents his anger at that dirty thing, maybe last time Lin Miao was entangled by that dirty thing, it was also this grandson who made a ghost, if he can kill me this time, then the next unlucky one will be Lin Miao.
The more I thought about it, the more I felt that this matter couldn't be left like that, but I didn't go back to Linjiazhuang immediately, but drove the donkey cart back home, afraid that Lin Miao would have an accident, I was in a hurry all the way, got a canvas bag when I got home, grabbed a big rooster, and hurriedly ran back.
Along the way, Uncle Li's little donkey cart is about to make me fall apart, anyway, I can't see the road when it's dark, I simply don't look at it, it all depends on this donkey to find the way by itself, as long as the general direction is correct, I didn't pull it.
In this way, I saved a lot of time, but I still didn't go directly to Linjiazhuang, but parked the donkey cart near the small temple in Linjiazhuang, and took out the paper figure that I had sprayed with blood foam.
I wiped off the charm behind the paper man, lit another stick of cow hair incense, and fanned it with my hand, so that the green smoke floated on the paper man's body, but in order to prevent attracting superfluous lonely ghosts, I only fanned it twice and quickly extinguished the cow hair incense.
Soon the paper figure shook twice without wind, because the paper figure had my blood on it, and I was afraid that the dirty things that would be attracted would be driven away, so I immediately bit my finger and drew a soul fixing spell on the paper figure.
After doing all this, I carried the paper man and the big rooster into Linjiazhuang.
Although I was in a hurry all the way, it was already past twelve o'clock at this time, and the lights of hundreds of houses in Linjiazhuang had already been extinguished, and Uncle Lin's family had already gone to sleep.
In order to catch the magic stick that was thinking about Lin Miao, I didn't alarm Uncle Lin, I climbed over the wall and entered the courtyard by myself, and hid in the small wing of the Lin family.
The time was also in time, and I didn't hide for long, and another person came in the courtyard, this person was wearing a big cotton jacket, wrapped like a bear, clumsily turned into the yard, and slipped under the window of Lin Miao's house, and then put a small paper figure on the windowsill.
However, this paper figure is not the kind of paper tie, but cut out of yellow table paper, and the paper figure is painted with cinnabar and Lin Miao's birthday, and a red rope is tied.
Put the paper figure away, this person lit a stick of incense, took out the rune paper, lit it with the incense, threw it into the sky, pinched a finger with one hand, and began to chant words in his mouth, "Gengzi, Ding Hai, Jiazi, Wuchen, now called, Lin Jiazhuang Yang surnamed male, Yang Yongcheng, return quickly!" ”
At this time, the paper figure in my hand suddenly shook twice, and I suddenly realized that this person was summoning spirits, and he was a veteran.
"Yang Yongcheng, Yang Yongcheng, come back quickly......" The man seemed to find that there was no movement, so he maintained this posture and muttered a few more words.
I hugged the big rooster and carried the paper man, and came out of the small room.
