Chapter 3 Paper Man Prevents Disasters
I have also met this Tian Laoliu a few times, it is an old acquaintance of my grandfather, he complained on the phone that in the past two days, the old Li family in the east of the city has died two people, and asked for a bunch of paper people and paper horses, and I am afraid that I will not be able to help my grandfather tie the paper people out before tonight.
Grandpa sighed and replied indifferently: "There is a female ghost entangled with Xiao Jue, if you don't prick it out, Xiao Jue will die tonight!" ”
Tian Laoliu on the other end of the phone was silent for a while, and replied: "Okay, come and pick up the goods before ten o'clock in the evening." ”
I was frightened by the words that my grandfather said on the phone that I would die tonight, and asked him what was going on and why I would die tonight, and my grandfather reached out and touched my head, just like when I was a child.
"Don't be afraid, with grandpa here, it'll be fine."
For the rest of the half a day, my whole heart has been hanging and I haven't put it down, plus maybe it was the relationship between me and Qin Chuyun last night, in the afternoon, I felt tired and couldn't do it, so I fell asleep on the counter again.
When I woke up, it was already night, and after looking at the time, I went to Tian Laoliu's house with my grandfather, Tian Laoliu's house was in an old alley at the west end of the town, there were no street lights in the alley, and almost no one would come here at night.
When I arrived at Tian Laoliu's house, after knocking on the door was the front yard of Tian Laoliu's house, there were many paper people and paper horses in the front yard that were folded and used and had not been dried. ”
"No problem." Although I said this, my grandfather's tone was extremely heavy, and I was not so sure, and by the light in the courtyard of Tian Laoliu, I noticed that the wrinkles on my grandfather's face seemed to be more, as if the whole person had aged several years in a day.
Tian Laoliu's craftsmanship is naturally nothing to say, this paper man is simply the same as the real thing, back to the store, grandpa asked me to take off the clothes I was wearing today, put on the paper man, and then put it on my bed, cover the quilt, if I turn off the light and don't look carefully, I really have a feeling of lying on the bed.
After that, the grandfather went back to the house, and when he came out, he had an extra set of blue and white shrouds in his hand.
"Xiao Jue, you put this dress on." Grandpa said to me.
I hesitated for a moment before reaching out to take the shroud, but I didn't dare to put it on directly, and asked my grandfather if the shroud wasn't worn by the dead? What am I wearing for!
Grandpa glared at me: "Let you wear it, what nonsense!" ”
I had no choice but to put on the shroud, probably psychologically, after wearing the shroud I felt uncomfortable, the fabric of the shroud against the skin gave me a feeling of close contact with the dead.
Grandpa looked at me, nodded with satisfaction, told me to go back to the house and lie down, and explained that no matter what movement came out of the room at night, I couldn't make a sound, and I couldn't move around, just lie down honestly.
I nervously asked, "Grandpa, with this paper figure, I'll be fine tonight?" ”
"Well, sleep in peace." Grandpa comforted.
I turned off the light and lay back on the bed, my grandfather told me that the paper figure must lie in the middle of the bed, and I could only barely squeeze aside, probably after a nap at noon, I didn't feel sleepy at all at this time, I could only stare at the ceiling with dry eyes.
But no matter how sleepy you are, if you are bored for a long time, you will definitely be sleepy, just like when I was in school, no matter how early I went to bed the day before, I would be bored and sleep on the table without two classes the next day.
I was in such a state, but just when I was dazed and a little sleepy, suddenly, there was a faint sound of footsteps outside the house, coming from far and near, in the direction of my room.
I didn't take it seriously at first, thinking that my grandfather got up in the middle of the night to pee, and when I reacted, the hairs all over my body exploded, and my heart was blocked in my throat, because this footstep could not have come from my grandfather.
Grandpa had already gone back to his room to sleep, and I hadn't heard him come out of it during this time, and his room was next door to mine, and if it was his footsteps, it could never have come from far and near.
But if it's not grandpa, who will it be?
Thinking so, the footsteps had come to the door of my room, and my body was tense and straight, and even the slightest footsteps seemed so clear in the silence of the night.
There was a squeak, and the door opened, and I remembered what my grandfather had told me before, lying like a corpse, not daring to make a sound, not daring to move, and even trying to keep the sound of breathing to a minimum.
Footsteps sounded in the room, once, twice, and slowly came to my bedside, and the footsteps stopped, and I could clearly feel the person standing beside me, and this person seemed to be carrying ice cubes, and it was surprisingly cold.
The man stood next to me and 'watched' for a moment, then walked around the bed to the other end, and then there was no sound.
After waiting for a while, I felt strange, and when I was about to open a slit to take a look, the bed under me actually moved slowly and regularly.
The curiosity in my heart was even stronger, and there was occasionally a small woman's moan in the air, I couldn't help it, and I narrowed a slit to look to the side, and found that at this time, a vague female phantom was 'riding' on the paper figure beside me, and kept doing that kind of thing.
Suddenly, my head was like being struck by lightning, and the three views were subverted, I can't see the phantom of this woman clearly, but when I think of what happened in the past two days, nine times out of ten it is the female ghost Qin Chuyun, why did she do that kind of thing to my paper figure?
Soon, I thought that when my grandfather was looking for Tian Laoliu to be a paper figure during the day, he specially asked that the size of the paper figure must be similar to mine, and my grandfather also specially put on my clothes for the paper man and lay on my bed, so it seems that Qin Chuyun treats the paper man as me? !
After tossing for more than half an hour, Qin Chuyun suddenly stopped, and I heard her muttering in a low voice: "It's weird, it was only a few minutes yesterday, why did you last for half an hour today?" ”
I was speechless for a while, am I so bad?
After that, Qin Chuyun lost his interest, and after getting out of bed, the quilt was covered with the paper figure again, and he left again with light steps.
I didn't dare to sleep in the second half of the night, and when it was dawn in the morning, I rushed into my grandfather's room with a panda eye and told him about last night.
"She didn't suspect the identity of the paper man, did she?"
I blushed and told my grandfather what Qin Chuyun whispered, and my grandfather smiled coldly after listening to it: "It's okay, it's okay if you don't find out by her, it's still like this for the next few days, and when the paper man sucks up the yin qi on the female ghost, grandpa will take action and help you destroy her!" ”
As my grandfather said, in the next few days, Qin Chuyun would come to the room every night to do things with the paper man, and every time he didn't suspect it, even I went from being nervous at the beginning to being relieved later, and even dared to squint at all this blatantly.
A few times, I even secretly said in my heart, how good it would be if Qin Chuyun was not a paper man but me, maybe this is the psychology of a virgin...... Alas, no, I'm not a virgin anymore.
On the afternoon of the sixth day, Qin Yunsheng came to the store again, and after chatting with his grandfather about some family affairs, Qin Yunsheng suddenly changed the conversation and asked me, "How have you been these days?" ”
I was stunned for a while, I didn't know how to answer, I looked at my grandfather, and saw his sad face.
"It's good, it's good, thank you for your concern."
"I'm ruddy, and I'm doing well." The Taoist priest behind Qin Yunsheng suddenly spoke.
Somehow, the atmosphere became a little awkward for a while.
"If it's okay, please go back, don't disturb my business." Grandpa gave an eviction order with a cold face, Qin Yunsheng smiled meaningfully, didn't say anything, and left with someone.
After Qin Yunsheng left, I found that my grandfather's face became more and more ugly, and he hurriedly went back to the house to pack up his things.
Grandpa replied, "They should have discovered that I was replacing you with a paper man." ”
When I heard this, my body trembled, and I hurriedly asked, "What should I do then?" ”
Grandpa glanced at the time, it was already half past six.
"I'm afraid I won't be able to leave today, pack up and pack our things, let's go to Tian Laoliu's house to hide for one night, and we must leave here at dawn tomorrow!"
