Zhang Hua knew that it was not his shadow.

"Zhang-Hua-" A low, hoarse voice slowly sounded behind him.

The moment he heard that shout, his scalp exploded. Zhang Hua, who didn't believe in ghosts and gods just now, suddenly remembered what the old man in the village said: Legend has it that there are three oil lamps on the person's body, one on the head and the other two on the shoulder. It is said that it is the yang fire on the human body. When walking at night, if someone calls your name, don't look to either side, if it blows out, you will be targeted by dirty things. If you look back, you will see something unclean, and you will be summoned by a ghost......

As soon as he thought of this, he couldn't help but quicken his pace and trot under the street lamp.

Zhang Hua ...... Don't go ......."

The ghostly voice always followed behind him, Zhang Hua gasped, and his steps became faster and faster.

"Don't ...... Walk...... Ouch! ”

At that moment, the shout suddenly changed tone. It seems that he fell hard while chasing himself. After hearing this voice, Zhang Hua slowly stopped, turned around angrily, and looked behind him.

Sure enough, under the street lamp, Wang Hu sat on the ground with a smirk, rubbed his buttocks with one hand, and stood up from the ground patting the soil on his body.

"Dead fatty, what are you doing! If you don't talk well, learn what the hell to call! Zhang Hua walked up to him and accused.

"Hahaha, aren't you quite bold? I just wanted to see how good you are, but I didn't expect you to run so fast! With your guts, you dare to go to Li Minggang's house at night......"

Wang Hu felt funny when he remembered that Zhang Hua was scared by himself just now.

It's just that seeing that Zhang Hua's face is getting more and more smelly, he coughed twice and continued: "Oh, don't be angry. Isn't it safe for me to leave you alone? Li Minggang is also my friend, no, I regretted it after you left, so I deliberately caught up with you and went with you to see him. When school starts, I'm counting on him to borrow me to copy my homework......"

"Hmph, I think you just want to copy other people's homework!" Zhang Hua glanced at each other angrily, and the two children walked towards the west of the village together.

Inside the closed door, there were bursts of children's screams. The cry was heart-rending and heartbreaking, especially terrifying in the empty hall in the middle of the night. Soon, a low, hoarse murmur came from the room, and the voice sounded like a mantra, and although I couldn't understand anything, it made people feel irritated to listen to it.

There were six or seven adults standing outside the door, their faces frightened, their eyes dodging as they looked at the door, and they looked very afraid of what was inside.

Soon, the screams gradually subsided, the wooden door slowly opened, and a gloomy old lady with white hair and a skin like tree bark came out of the house.

She was holding a bowl of rice in her hand, and if you looked closely, you would find that the rice grains that should have been white and shiny were faintly glowing with black gas. The old man's eyes were deeply sunken inward, skinny, his cheekbones were high, and his cloudy eyes were bloodshot, looking terrifying.

However, after seeing her figure, the group of people standing outside the door immediately surrounded her as if they had seen a god, and one of the haggard couples rushed forward and grabbed the old man's arm for the first time, and the man with an honest face asked eagerly: "Aunt He, how is it?" Ming Gang he ......"

The one who was called Aunt He was the strange old lady who was nearly eighty years old, and she was also a famous goddess in the village next door in Wang Hu's mouth. I heard that her ancestors also did this business, and all the funeral red and white things in the nearby villages on weekdays had to be counted with her, which was said to be particularly effective. And whoever loses his soul and falls into evil, the villagers will also come to the door to ask for help from Aunt He as soon as possible.

Although the old man looks scary and the children in the neighborhood are afraid of her, she is actually very kind-hearted. Because of this line of peeping, he is destined to not be able to die well. When her mother died tragically due to an accident, Aunt He completely woke up. In order not to harm her partner and the next generation, she never married, and is still alone, living alone in a small hut in the next village.

Not only that, but she came to the door to summon spirits and charged almost no fees. Most of the villagers are simple and kind, although He Gu does not take a penny, but everyone will still consciously send some firewood, rice, oil and salt, eggs, and fresh fish to the door after their children are sick.

Two days ago, when Li Minggang's father came to the door and told him about his child's situation, the old man took his tools and followed him to Dongping Village without saying a word. In the past two days, she has barely closed her eyes, and has been bothering to stay in the room to summon Li Minggang's spirits.

"This kid didn't lose his soul." He Gu spoke slowly, and her voice was like that of a traveler who had not drunk water in the desert for a long time, hoarse: "He was entangled in something...... As far as I can see, within three days, this child will die. ”

"How so...... Aunt He, please old man, you must save him! After hearing these words, the simple woman weakened her legs, cried and knelt in front of Aunt He, and began to kowtow to her desperately: "I have such a baby in my life...... I can't live without him......"

"Su Lan, don't do this." Li Chuan wiped his tears while supporting his wife, and said to Aunt He: "Is my family Minggang really hopeless?" He's only 14 years old, he shouldn't have been targeted so early......" Before the man could finish speaking, he was interrupted by other relatives on the side.

"Brother Chuanzi, there is no way to cry now, let's ask Aunt He what to do!" A tall, thin man said with a panicked expression.

"Yes, yes, He Gu has great powers, there must be a solution...... others also chimed in.

Although the old man is old, his eyes are still keenly aware of something. He stared at Li Chuan and said slowly, "What did you mean by what you just said?" ”

When Li Chuan heard this, his expression became extremely solemn. He hesitantly raised his head and looked around, while the others shook their heads slightly, as if to warn him not to talk nonsense.

And when He Gu saw this situation, she was angry. She pointed to the people around her: "You invited me here, and now the child is in critical condition, and he will not survive tonight." If you don't say it, then I can't help it......"

"Don't, Aunt He, please save him!" Zhou Sulan dragged the old man's trouser leg and pushed away the others who were blocking him: "Although Ming Gang is not my own son, but our husband and wife have pulled him up over the years, I really can't see him suffer......"

"He's not your own?" He Gu was quite surprised by this.

"I don't have a bad stomach, I've been married to Chuanzi for six or seven years, and I haven't given him a baby......," Zhou Sulan said with a sad expression: "There are more and more gossips in the village, and Chuanzi can't get angry, so he took me to the town to work." There was a cousin of his in town, and his cousin and his wife had a restaurant on the first floor and two rooms on the second floor. We stayed there, one doing the red case on weekdays, and the other helping out in the front room. With this relationship, the two of us also settled down for a short time. But then one day......"

"Later, my cousin and his wife went to a neighboring town to pick goods, and they met robbers on the way, and they were robbed of their money and killed." Li Chuan interrupted his wife's words: "My aunt and uncle went early, and my cousin left, but fortunately Ming Gang was left, otherwise the family's bloodline would be completely broken." Su Lan and I were devastated, and we didn't have any business skills. After dealing with the aftermath for them, they transferred the shop and returned to their hometown with Ming Gang, who was less than a year old. And when the villagers saw us come back with our children, they all thought that we were our own. I think that since this is the case, firstly, Su Lan will no longer be gossiped about, and secondly, I can also take care of Minggang wholeheartedly, so that he can have a complete home again......"

Li Chuan burst into tears when he said this, and He Gu had to sigh when he heard his explanation.

"The thing that haunts your child is no ordinary wandering ghost. If you want to save your child, there's only one way to try. He Gu's words ignited the hope of the husband and wife, Li Chuan grabbed her arm and said excitedly: "You say! If you can save Ming Gang, we husband and wife will repay you by doing cows and horses! ”

"Don't say it too soon, I'm not sure." He Gu turned around and slowly inspected the people in front of him: "You are all relatives of the Li family, right?" Now listen to me and carry Ming Gang to the yard. ”

"Huh? This ......" As soon as they heard Aunt He say this, the faces of the others showed horror again. The thought of that child's shuddering appearance made everyone sweat coldly behind their backs, and they couldn't help but get goosebumps.
