Chapter 22 He Gu
"What's wrong?" After hearing his wife's shouts outside the house, Li Chuan quickly rushed out. Mistakenly thinking that Dai Shikai and the others had hurt his wife, he picked up the flat pole that was leaning against the wall and threw it at them.
Dai Shikai snorted, pushed Ayina away, dodged the attack, and went around behind the other party to restrain him: "Brother, don't be so irritable, we just came to the door to beg for tea, why do we beat people as soon as we meet?" ”
And Zhou Sulan also came to her senses, and immediately stepped forward to stop: "Chuanzi, they didn't do anything to me, it's me...... I fell on my own. Ayina helped her up, Zhou Sulan smiled at her gratefully, and then closed the door in a panic: "You two want to drink saliva, come on, sit here for a while, let's pour tea for the two of you." ”
She glanced at her husband, Li Chuan immediately understood what his wife meant, and apologized to the two in a hurry, the husband and wife didn't even ask about their identities, so they rashly left two strangers to sit in the living room, which shows how hurried they were.
However, Dai Shikai and the others understood that they had ghosts in their hearts, and after seeing Wang Hu's ghost, it was normal for them to be shocked and ignore the two passers-by. So the two nodded, and then went into the living room and sat down to rest.
Dai Shikai looked around, and quickly locked his eyes on a room behind him. Even through a door, he could still feel the cold aura behind the door.
Just as the two of them were staring at the door, the wooden door suddenly made a strange "creak" sound, and then a pair of wrinkled, fleshy hands stretched out from behind the door. Aina was startled, and without thinking, she took out a prop from her arms, a pair of red scissors covered with rust.
This is her trump card, which Aina accidentally obtained during a mission at the risk of her life. At that time, a woman who was cornered committed suicide with this scissor, and after her death, part of her resentment attached to the scissors, which became a powerful item that could temporarily dispel ghosts within ten meters of the holder.
"Down, it's human." Dai Shikai quietly blocked her behind him, and sure enough, behind the door, an elderly woman hunched her back and walked out slowly.
This person is none other than the goddess He Gu.
Dai Shikai rolled his eyes, then pretended not to know anything, and said apologetically: "I'm bothering you, we were just passing by, and she was suffering from heat stroke, so she came to your house to beg for tea." ”
The old lady was hunched over and wearing a black coarse cloth waistcoat, which looked especially strange in the room on a hot day. However, even though she was dressed so thickly, there was not a trace of sweat on her forehead, her hair was white, her face was full of wrinkles and yellow spots, and her eyes were as bright as a cat in the night. After listening to Dai Shikai's words, the old man raised his head and looked at the two of them carefully.
Aina felt that the other party's gaze was as sharp as a knife, and when she swept over herself, she found herself with goosebumps on this hot summer day.
And the old goddess seemed to really have some ability, she quickly looked at the two of them, and her eyes quickly fell on the scissors in Aina's hand.
When the goddess saw the scissors, her eyes were wrong. A trace of consternation quickly crossed her face full of vicissitudes, and then she looked at the two people in front of her incredulously, and her expression gradually became complicated.
Dai Shikai patted Ayina, and the other party immediately reacted and put the scissors into his bag.
He Gu's eyes were always fixed on her movements, and under the gaze of the two, she slowly walked in front of them.
She trembled and shook Dai Shikai's hand, and the expression on her face became more and more elusive. She raised her head and lowered her voice and said, "Two, I'm afraid it's not as simple as traveling, right?" ”
Ayina just wanted to deny it, but Dai Shikai nodded unexpectedly: "You seem to know something." ”
He Gu's flickering eyes stayed on his face, and he said an inexplicable sentence: "There are some things, it's better to use less." ”
"What do you mean by that?" Ayina was confused, and just wanted to ask, but Li Chuan and his wife had already made tea and walked out of the kitchen. Seeing Aunt He walking out of the house, Zhou Sulan's face instantly showed panic.
"Well, you...... How did you get out...... We have guests, how ...... No, you, go back to the house for a while. In front of outsiders, she didn't know what to call the old goddess. The other party seems to regard He Gu as his family, but even so, Zhou Sulan didn't dare to call the other party "Mom", not because she was unlucky, but because she was afraid of offending He Gu and committing her taboo.
"It's okay in the house for the time being, I'm also stuffy, and I want to come out and sit." Aunt He had something to say, and the husband and wife couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when they heard "it's okay".
The old man turned to look at the two of them and said to them, "You two go in and see the children, and I will entertain these two guests." ”
When Li Chuan and Zhou Sulan heard this, they looked at each other, not knowing why Aunt He suddenly said this.
But since it was what she said, and the other party was the only savior of her family now, the husband and wife naturally did not dare to disobey her. In addition, they love their son very much, and they can't think about the motives of Aunt He's words at this moment. Li Chuan nodded, put down the teacup in his hand, and said to Dai Shikai and the others, "Then let's go and get busy first." ”
"Hey, okay, I'm sorry." Dai Shikai nodded politely.
After the two entered the house, He Gu, who was sitting on a wooden chair, suddenly spoke: "Outside the door before, what did the two of you see that you shouldn't see?" ”
"It's just a ghost, it's not weird." Dai Shikai changed his reckless and restrained appearance just now, smiled lightly, and sat on the chair next to Aunt He.
"Although I am old, my eyes are still good. Oh, I really didn't look at the wrong person. He Gu stared at Dai Shikai and Ayina, and narrowed her eyes slightly: "Although you have not been dealing with those things for a long time, but from you, I can see a lot of things from the old woman......"
"That's all you say?" Dai Shikai suddenly sat up straight, took out a rusty dagger from his arms, and gently slapped it on the table.
Seeing him do this, Aina hesitated for a moment and took out her scissors as well.
And when He Gu saw these two things, the expression on her face began to be calm. She stood up tremblingly and took two steps forward, but never dared to touch them.
She stared at the prop for a long time, until Dai Shikai took the evil blade into his arms.
"I'm an old woman from the countryside, I don't know who you are, why you can control these things." He Gu's voice was full of vicissitudes: "But young man, these things are not good for you if you carry them on your body." Even...... And it will kill you. ”
Aina frowned, and she only thought that the old lady was deliberately pretending to be a ghost and saying something horrific to scare them. However, after Dai Shikai heard what she said, his face changed instantly.
This is the same as Lu Qing's previous warning to him, so far, those who know that the props themselves are dangerous, and they have only three people who have been cut away. And this goddess, at the first sight of them, has seen through these things...... She's really got what she can do.
