Chapter 34: The Ghost Gate Banquet (I)
I thought to myself, girl, do you know that although this thunder charm is fun, it consumes all Brother Zhou's human blood?
However, Zhao Xiaoyi was very understanding of my bluff and the plan to knock on the mountain and shock the tiger, winked at me, and said in a matter-of-fact manner: "Brother Zhou, without further ado, let's hurry up, shall we?" ”
I nodded, and she took the lead and stepped over the big stone stone again, but after just two steps, she suddenly turned around, stretched out a slender finger in the air, and said, "Brother Zhou, I have a proposal?" ”
I laughed and said, "What? ”
She said: "Let's go one trip after another, it's too tiring, since we want to make trouble, I think, why don't we limit it to 100 steps?" ”
I think what she said makes a lot of sense, which not only saves time, but also increases the pressure on the other party, so I said: "Okay, let's limit it to 100 steps, or you can count, and if you don't show up in 100 steps, you will explode immediately." ”
When the little girl heard this, she immediately became excited again, and cleared her throat, raised her voice an octave, and began to shout counting, and moreover, she took a step unconventionally and added a number.
I followed her and watched with interest as she played, wondering if that ghost would really believe our ultimatum. If not, am I really going to blow it all down? Will you be deceived by the nearby villagers when you turn around?
It's not that my ideas are vulgar, but because as a senior leader of a large company, I have to consider these practical problems, not to cause trouble to the company, back and forth, I think it is necessary to blow up, but it is not necessary to blow up all of this, you can focus on breakthroughs, for example, only blow up the courtyard walls on both sides, see what the reaction is, maybe I will break this somewhat clever ghost wall.
However, what happened next made my worries disappear, because when Zhao Xiaoyi counted to forty, one of the courtyards seemed to suddenly become brightly lit, and I could even hear the noise of life coming from inside.
Yes, after tossing for nearly two hours, those ghosts finally appeared, and it is estimated that at this time, a battle was being set up in that courtyard, waiting for me and Zhao Xiaoyi to arrive, or to throw themselves into the net.
At this time, the little girl, who was still excited just now, suddenly stopped, and then turned her head to stare at me, with a look of horror in her eyes.
I was immediately happy: "Xiaoyi, why don't you go, the light in the room in front of you suddenly turned on, it should be the ghost brother who has set up a banquet and is ready to entertain us, let's go!" ”
Zhao Xiaoyi stood still, and said knowingly: "But, Brother Zhou, is there really a lot of ghosts in that courtyard?" ”
I suddenly lowered my voice and said, "I'm not sure if there are many of them, but what is certain is that there will definitely not be human beings inside, at least not normal human beings." ”
Zhao Xiaoyi became nervous, and even her voice began to tremble a little: "Brother Zhou, who will they be, is it the person found by Sister Zhang's cousin, or the people who marry them?" ”
I analyzed rigorously: "I think nine times out of ten, it should be the ghost groom who smiled at you, because Cao Lei has no ability at all, and, if it were him, he would definitely not show up, either continue to besiege us until dawn, or escape silently, but if it is your groom's brother, everything will make sense." ”
Zhao Xiaoyi's little face began to turn red and white, indicating that she was really nervous, or scared, but she said with disgust: "Brother Zhou, look at what you said, whose groom is the elder brother?" Besides, why are you so sure of him, don't you just take a second look? You can't just pester me like this, right? ”
I pointed to the brightly lit courtyard and smiled a little mysteriously: "Whether it's or not, let's go in and have a look, don't you know." ”
After I finished speaking, I took the lead and walked towards the gate of the courtyard, but found that Zhao Xiaoyi did not follow, but continued to stand in place, as if petrified.
I had to turn around and try to pull her along, but I found the little girl in fists with her hands, trembling as if she had been swinging.
I was suddenly a little worried, what happened to this girl, was she scared, or was she suddenly ghosted? walked over and patted her on the head, and asked softly, "Xiaoyi, what's wrong with you?" Is it because of fear? ”
Zhao Xiaoyi nodded, then shook his head again, his lips trembled and said, "Brother Zhou, that, in case, they..."
I saw that Zhao Xiaoyi's eyes were clear, not like a ghost, so I smiled and said, "Stinky girl, it's really scared?" Hell, haven't you ever seen it, as for being scared like this? Besides, weren't you still shouting to find a ghost to settle accounts just now, and now that you're really here, you're like this again, could it be the legendary Ye Gong Haolong? ”
Zhao Xiaoyi suddenly twitched his nose, his beautiful eyes widened, and he glared at me and shouted, "Who... Who's scared? Who is Ye Gong a good dragon? People are mainly worried about the ghost who hit the wall, is it really the ghost groom..."
I suddenly feel that Zhao Xiaoyi's psychology is a bit strange? Didn't she and the ghost groom have a friendly exchange of smiles? Why are you scared now?
Could it be... Is this called "being more timid about homesickness"? No, it should be called "closer to ghosts and more cowardly", right?
Thinking of this, I suddenly joked: "Hey, I said classmate Zhao Xiaoyi, look at your hands are soft, could it be that you fell in love with that ghost groom at first sight and fell in love with him." ”
Unexpectedly, my words caused trouble all of a sudden, Zhao Xiaoyi suddenly cried, tears fell straight like a basket, and stared at me with a resentful look, which made my heart hairy, and I was a little at a loss for a while, and I didn't know how to comfort her.
But after a few seconds, Zhao Xiaoyi wiped a handful of tears, and suddenly looked up at me again, his eyes were still full of resentment, and said in a very serious tone: "Mr. Zhou, who I like, I know in my heart, I don't need you to talk nonsense, I hope you don't make this kind of joke in the future, I can't afford it." ”
After all, I am several years older, and I have been in the society for a long time, and I can be regarded as a person who has come over, and my mind is racing, and I soon understood the mood of the little girl, and saw her rare serious appearance, so I quickly apologized: "Stinky girl, you know I'm joking, why are you serious?" ”
Of course, as a leader, even if you apologize, you must also pay attention to a little bit of language art, and you can't give people the feeling of being low-voiced, so I used the above sentence of "the wicked sue first", but please believe that my heart is very sincere, so I almost took out a red heart and showed it to her.
But the little girl didn't buy it, she was still angry, and suddenly shook her hand, and walked straight to the gatehouse, I was a little caught off guard, and reached out to fish, but I didn't pull it, so I had to follow.
Zhao Xiaoyi walked to the front of the courtyard gate, regardless of thirty-seven twenty-one, and suddenly began to kick the door frantically, looking at her posture with her legs, it was obvious that she had undergone long-term professional training, it seemed that this girl had been completely enraged, and she was ready to kick the field.
I knew that the little girl was actually angry with me, and I was very sorry, so I hurriedly walked over and grabbed her, and comforted her with kind words: "Xiao Yi, it's all Brother Zhou's bad, don't be impulsive, this will startle those ghosts, in case you change your attention, it won't be fun." ”
When Zhao Xiaoyi heard my words, he immediately quieted down, but he still glared at me angrily, and without saying a word, I touched my chin and said: "Brother Zhou, do you think it would be more polite to knock on the door gently, Sun Tzu's Art of War, salute first and then soldier, is the best policy." ”
My ridicule seemed to have worked, Zhao Xiaoyi bit his red lips lightly, his beautiful eyes were like cold stars on an autumn night, and the anger in his eyes seemed to have disappeared mostly, but he still said: "I want to knock you?" ”
I nodded, and was about to knock on the door, but at this moment, I heard the sound of the latch being pulled from inside, and I stopped raising my hand.
Soon, the door opened, and a dark figure poked its head out of it, staring at me with a very unfriendly look.
When I saw the person in front of me clearly, I was dumbfounded, I never thought that this person was Sister Zhang's ghost brother Cao Lei.
