You can't imagine how terrified I was when I saw Lao Lu's face appear in the painting on the wall. I distinctly remember him saying to me, "The paintings on the walls are all about dead people." ”

Doesn't that mean......

The hairs on my body stood on end at the thought of this, and the violent heartbeat almost suffocated me.

The more I thought about it, the more I felt that something was wrong, that the acquaintance between this old man in a black coat and me was not an accident at all, but more like a well-planned intentional contact. Is he a human or a ghost? Why did he contact me? Why did he tell me his story? My heart couldn't calm down for a long time, and I couldn't seem to take my eyes off the portrait on the wall at all. I'm just a little writer, I've lived in a simple house for ten years, I haven't even seen a flower bathhouse, where have I ever seen such a weird thing?

I want to escape.

I swear I'll never run around this broken lake again.

At this moment, a creepy voice suddenly came from behind me, "You're here......"

I stared at my huge eyes and suddenly turned my head, and the old man in the black coat stood behind me silently at some point! I was startled on the spot, and shouted in panic, "Are you a human or a ghost?" ”

He didn't answer me.

He slowly sat down in his chair, staring solemnly at the teacup in a daze, as if he had fallen into some kind of contemplation. I asked him if he was a human or a ghost, but he chose to remain silent, wasn't that intended to scare me? I was originally timid, and a writer was born cranky, and the more he didn't speak, the more scared I became.

In the face of my question, the old man in the black coat never answered. After a long time, he slowly stood up, walked to his broken wooden bed, and pulled out a round object from under the bed. I thought that the thing he took out for a long time must be an important item that could solve all the doubts in my heart, but I didn't expect that what he took out was actually a "scale".

Lao Lu said in a low voice: "Do you want to know if I am a human or a ghost?" ”

My eyes widened in horror, and I didn't dare to answer at all.

But at this time, Lao Lu asked me in a light tone: "How much do you weigh." ”

I trembled and said, "150." ”

Lao Lu asked me to stand up and weigh it, and see if the scale was accurate, and I didn't dare not do it, so I stood on the scale stupidly. The number on the scale was exactly the same, and the red hand landed exactly on 150.

At this time, Lao Lu asked me again: "How much do you think I am?" ”

I said, "120 at most." But I suddenly came to my senses and was surprised: "No, how can you talk to me about this?" ”

Lao Lu ignored me, he slowly stood on the scale with an expressionless face, I stepped forward to take a look, and the number displayed suddenly scared me! This old Lu, who is as thin as a match, is a full 230 pounds? I suddenly raised my head to look at him in surprise, but I suddenly saw that on the wall behind Lao Lu, the shadow of a woman was lying on his shadow of Lao Lu!

I froze in fright, but when I looked up again, there was nothing. I looked at Lao Lu in horror, pointed to the wall behind him and stammered, "Queen...... Behind...... I just saw ......"

Lao Lu walked up to me and gently helped me steady. The contrast between the frightened me and the calm him was clearly stark. He glanced at the things on the table and smiled slightly: "Bought it for me?" ”

I was already scared stupid, how the do I know the north, south, south, north, west, and north, laughing and crying, "It's all yours." ”

Lao Lu beckoned me to sit down, and he knew that I was not scared, so he poured me a glass of water, so he went on to tell me his story:

After Lao Lu and the old man escaped from the ancient tomb with the "Yin Yang Cauldron", they ran for a long distance before they dared to stop. The two of them leaned against a big tree and panted, and the old man covered his waist and bared his teeth and grinned: "Damn, I didn't expect that there are really ghosts in this world, this time it is really an eye-opener." ”

Lao Lu gasped, smiled bitterly and said, "Who said it wasn't." But then again, your old man is really good, the female ghosts have all practiced for you, and I can't see that your old arms and legs are still a practitioner. ”

When the old man heard this, he almost broke his bladder with a smile, but he pretended to be modest, waved his hand lightly and said: "Hey, when my old man was fighting at the dock in Nanjing, the nickname given to me was "Little Dolgon on South Changjiang Road", which means that when I fought in a group, the damn dragon entered the sea, the phoenix took off, and the head of the general was taken from the army like a bag. I told you when we were drinking in Sanlitun that time, don't keep listening to what the gang of Wang Ba calves in the institute said, when there was a group fight in Nanjing, I picked up the food stamps that fell out of people's pockets next to me, I said that it was all rumors, you still don't believe me, what's the matter, now I finally believe it. ”

The old man waved his hand triumphantly, but suddenly found that he was still tightly grasping the hard object used to smash the female ghost in his hand, and Lao Lu also saw it, so he praised it: "This stone is really more timely than Song Jiang." If you hadn't touched it in a panic and smashed the female ghost with a call, why would the two of them be radishes or melons now, you really have to say something else. ”

The old man was like the Empress Dowager Cixi caressing the jade cabbage next to her pillow, and while stroking the stone, he still muttered in his mouth: "Yes, yes, this stone really saved our lives today." As he spoke, he couldn't help but be moved, and the two lines of hot tears were more than when he touched a nursing home discount card last year.

He looked at the stone in his hand that helped him beat the female ghost, and choked up with tears: "Don't say anything, brother, from now on you will be my old man's brother." In the future, as long as I eat dry, I will never let you drink thin food. If I wear Adi, I will never let you wear Hongxing Erke. ”

The old man who escaped death stroked his precious stone while caressing his precious stone while he was heartless.

But when he touched it, for some reason his face froze all of a sudden!

Lao Lu, who was used to seeing him startled, asked angrily: "What's wrong with you?" ”

The old man stared at the seemingly ordinary stone in his hand, but his face was like ashes, and large cold sweat fell down his forehead like a torrential rain. Even if Lao Lu didn't bother to take care of him, he had to get nervous when he saw his appearance. "What's wrong with this old man?" His heart beat a drum. You must know that even if he saw a real female ghost in the ancient tomb today, he was not shocked by this appearance.

The old man said excitedly: "Old Lu, this ...... What the is this rock! ”

When Lao Lu heard this, he hurried to take a closer look, but he couldn't see the reason.

It's obviously a broken stone, or a broken stone flake. The pimples are pimple, black and autumnal, although the shape is a little peculiar, but it is by no means a valuable thing. If you take this thing home, you can pad the mahjong table, and you can't even change the bowl of stew when you get it to Pan Jiayuan, and I don't know what his old man is excited about.

The old man carefully observed the stone in his hand.

After a while, he finally confirmed the true identity of the object.

He suddenly shook his body, his pupils were like a cow, and he exclaimed loudly: "Old Lu, let's make a big deal now." This thing turned out to be a legendary artifact: "Jade of the Living Dead"! ”
