Chapter 2 The sound of the piano in the middle of the night

Blacksmith Liu coughed violently a few times, the oily and wrinkled skin on his face twitched a few times, his eyes widened as if they were about to bulge out of his sockets, he shouted in a hoarse voice, fighting with the last bit of strength, "I want Lord Hades to punish them and let them go down with me!" ”

"Dad, what nonsense are you talking about!" Blacksmith Liu's daughter knew that her father was really angry. It's no wonder that the conscience of the brother was eaten by the dog, and his father didn't even come to see him when he was sick.

Thinking that her father might not survive tonight, Liu Blacksmith's daughter wiped her tears and got up to find her father's shroud. That was two years ago, when she secretly used the money from embroidered handkerchiefs to prepare for her father. The big wooden box for the shroud was placed next to the door, and when I was turning around, I suddenly saw a figure shaking again outside the crack of the door that was not tightly closed.

Originally, Liu Blacksmith's daughter was frightened when she stayed here, but when she suddenly saw someone outside, she couldn't help but shout, "Who! With this shout, a cold wind blew, and the rotten wooden door "squeaked and squeaked" opened, and a monster less than two feet tall, with a round head and a big belly, was standing at the door, and when he saw Liu Blacksmith's daughter coming out, he actually spit out a bright red tongue at her, so frightened that she suddenly screamed, and people involuntarily fell backwards!

A man's slightly reproachful voice followed suit, "Zhonghuachi, can you put your playfulness away, people are scary, but they can really scare people to death!" The body of the "monster" suddenly "skyrocketed" into the height of a normal adult man, Zhong Huachi took off the mask on his face, held it in his hand and laughed out loud, "Who knew she was so scared, I wasn't dedicated to you, so no one knew that we had been here!" ”

Yan Heyi walked to the side of Blacksmith Liu's bed, and saw that there was a layer of fine oil sweat on the tip of his nose and forehead, and people also had more air and less air in, so he knew that people were no longer good. He vaguely remembered that Blacksmith Liu had a son, but now he was not in front of anyone, and it was really desolate.

He walked to the side of the bed, and Blacksmith Liu felt that someone was coming to the bed, his eyes were wide open, but his eyes began to dilute, and he couldn't see clearly at all. He shouted, "Is the boss here?" Until this time, Blacksmith Liu was still thinking about his son. Yan Heyi reached over and held Blacksmith Liu's dry palm tightly. There are countless cocoons of all sizes on it, and my hands are distressed, and the experiences of this life are engraved on these cocoons.

"Dad, I'm here!" Yan Heyi couldn't bear to make the old man sad, but Zhong Huachi covered his mouth in surprise, staring at him incredulously, his face was full of eyebrows, and he didn't know what he wanted to express. There were muddy tears rolling down the corners of Blacksmith Liu's eyes, and the person was speechless, just nodded slowly, slowly, his hand suddenly loosened, his head tilted, and he went.

"My God, if you can call me Dad, you will have to spend at least three years of Yang Shou. He was a dying man, no wonder he went at once, alas, pathetic, pathetic! Zhong Huachi said as he picked up the daughter of the blacksmith Liu who fell to the ground, "Our business is over, and when she wakes up tomorrow, she will cry and howl and bury her father, and her life as a daughter will be over." ”

"Don't be in a hurry to go," Yan Heyi took out a white handkerchief embroidered with Chunyan from his sleeve, covered it on Blacksmith Liu's face, turned to Zhong Huachi and said, "The person who made a bet with us hasn't come yet!" Zhong Huachi patted his head and said in surprise, "That's right, how did I forget such an important thing!" Let me calculate how much we can earn this time! ”

He took out a small abacus made of pure gold and crackled and fiddled, but Yan Heyi found that at some point, a dart with a red tassel had appeared on the wooden door of Liu Blacksmith's house, and a small paper scroll was nailed to it.

Yan Heyi walked over and pulled out the dart, opened the paper scroll, and wrote a line of small characters in hairpin letters, "See you at the small bridge in the east of the town!" This handwriting is unfamiliar and has a little familiarity, I don't know why, Yan Heyi's heart, which is harder than ice, seems to have been split by something, and it hurts faintly.

"What, Zhendong?" Zhong Huachi poked his head out from behind him and took a look, then jumped up and shouted, "No, no, this place must not be visited!" He picked up Yan Heyi and walked out, "You don't know, this town is separated by the small river that flows in the middle, half of it is the underworld and hell, and on the other side is the yang world and heaven. The east of the town is the territory of the dead, and if you look at it more, you will provoke unclean things, so you hurry up and go home with me, and you are not allowed to go anywhere! ”

He almost exerted all his strength, but Yan Heyi still stood in place, not moving. This kung fu of a thousand pounds of kung fu cannot be practiced in ten or eight years. Zhong Huachi was tired and anxious, "Okay, I won't stop you if you want to go, but if I don't go, I won't go alive or dead!" Zhong Huachi was about to leave after speaking, but Yan Heyi grabbed the pulse with his backhand, and dragged him out of Liu Blacksmith's house and went to the east.

This town is called Butterfly Flower Town, although there are not many people in the town, but it is very kind, which is one of the reasons why Yan Heyi chose to settle here. But when he got here, he heard a very strange rumor. There is a small river running through the middle of the town, which divides the whole town in two. The west of the town is where everyone lives, and it is very lively during the day. And the east of the town is the haunting place of the ghosts, and it is full of people when it passes.

Some say that that is the way of life of the dead in the other world. Someone once had the audacity to sneak up to the river in the middle of the night to see if there were ghosts on the other side. But as soon as the man reached the river, he was frightened and fainted, and when he woke up again, he had gone crazy, and he said over and over again, "There are ghosts, there are ghosts, they have come to arrest me!" "Since then, no one has dared to go to the east side of town. Yan Heyi doesn't believe in this evil, he is a living ghost in this night, are you still afraid of those dead people?

The river was flowing in a hurry, and when it reached the river, Zhonghuachi was almost crying. He begged, "Yan Heyi, for the sake of our friendship for so many years, will you let me go?" Although I am past the age of marrying, my daughter-in-law still has no words, so why don't you let me leave a legacy for the Zhong family before I die! ”

Yan Heyi let go of him, pointed to the other side and said, "Take a good look, the lights are bright over there, where does it look like there is a ghost?" Maybe your marriage is over there! Zhong Huachi shook his head like a rattle, "Even if there is a heavenly immortal waiting for me over there, I won't go!" ”

Suddenly, an excellent piano sound came from the other side of the river, and Yan Heyi's lips suddenly showed a sly smile, it seems that this time Zhonghua Pond will have to go if he doesn't go!
