The next day, nothing happened, but, because of absenteeism for no reason, Qiang Shun and I were called by the leaders of the factory to be trained, training it, anyway, I have long been used to being trained by the leaders, and it is not once or twice.

On the third day, we became the night shift, leaving work at eight o'clock in the morning, I remember that day just got off work, before the factory gate, the old man in the cemetery called again, the old man was glued to us, endlessly.

I took the phone and said in a polite tone, didn't I already tell you last time, we can't take care of your business, you go find someone else.

When the old man heard it, he immediately begged on the other end of the phone, I was going to hang up the phone after I finished speaking, but when I heard the tone of the old man at this time, I couldn't bear it, after all, people invited us to drink two meals, and I didn't even give the face to listen to the phone, besides, people are so old.

The old man said that he could not find anyone else, and that even if the old man begged us, if we left him alone, he would not be able to do this work, and if he did not have it, he would have to go and ask for food.

I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, what the old man said was not only pitiful, but also the truth, an old man of his age, there was really no place to ask him for work when he went out to find a job, and besides, there was an old bachelor, and there was no one to support him, and he probably had to ask for food if he lost this job.

I, Liu Huanghe, am not a hard-hearted person, although I sometimes behave unkindly, but I am not a person who can really be ruthless, and finally promised the old man to go over tonight to have a look.

Hanging up the phone, Qiang Shun asked me: "Who is looking for you this time, I still sound like an old man." ”

I glanced at him and said, "Don't you hear, it's still the old man in the cemetery, or the ghost of the Republic of China." Then I said, "Don't go this time." ”

"Why?"

I said, "Don't get there, you won't be able to see anymore." ”

Qiang Shun suddenly looked very disappointed, smashed his mouth, but didn't say anything, probably he was also afraid that he would not be able to see again after getting there.

At this time, the two of us had already walked to the carport at the gate, stopped at the carport and paused, I turned around and walked towards our factory director's office, Qiang Shun hurriedly asked me, "Huanghe, what are you doing?" ”

I turned my head at him, "I'm going to the old man tonight, I won't be able to work the night shift, I'll ask the factory director for a leave, otherwise he should say that I'm absent from work." ”

When Qiang Shun heard this, he quickly followed me, and when I looked at him, he said, "You can wait for me here in the carport, why follow me." ”

Qiang Shun smiled: "I'm going to ask for leave with you." ”

I straightened my face, "Didn't I tell you just now, I don't need you to go this time, so don't follow me." ”

When Qiang Shun heard this, his face immediately became very unnatural, like an abandoned child, but he didn't squeak or stop, I walked to the factory director's office, and he followed me.

I couldn't help but look at him, and seeing his posture, it seemed that he still wanted to go to the cemetery with me. Anyway, the factory director has long not allowed the two of us to ask for leave together, and the leave will only be granted to one person later.

The factory director happened to be in the office at the time, and as soon as I entered the office door, I was afraid that Qiang Shun would take the lead, so I immediately told the factory director that I wanted to ask for leave.

As soon as the factory director heard that I was going to ask for leave, he immediately pulled his face down, then glanced at Qiang Shun again, and asked, "You are also here to ask for leave?" ”

Qiang Shun hurriedly shook his head and said, "I don't ask for leave, I'll come and take a look." ”

The factory director's face suddenly improved a little.

This time I took this leave, it was not too smooth, because I had just been absent from work the day before yesterday, and I came to ask for leave today, just like the director said, we are not a hotel here, you can come when you say you, and you can leave.

In the end, the leave was still asked to come down, but it took a little more to spit on the stars, to my surprise, Qiang Shun not only did not open his mouth to ask for leave, but also helped me say a few good words on the side, and behaved very well, but, after the leave came, I suddenly felt that he seemed to have some purpose for me to speak.

After leaving the factory, I called the old man in the cemetery and asked him to prepare something for me during the day today, and I went over at night to solve the problem for him.

When I called, Qiang Shun listened with my ears pricked up next to me, and after the call, he asked me what I was going to do, so I told him what I thought, and he asked again, this thing can be done tomorrow morning, I nodded, if nothing else, it should be done. Qiang Shun didn't say anything anymore, and looked thoughtful.

There was nothing to say for a day, it was night, half past eleven, I first brought Qiang Shun to the gate of the factory, explained to Qiang Shun, and after work, I will come back to pick you up, as for the cemetery, don't copy your heart, don't wait for me to leave on the front foot, you sneak over again, this is not good for your eyes. Qiang Shun smiled and nodded.

After seeing Qiang Shun honestly walk into the factory, I rode a motorcycle straight to the cemetery, and in a blink of an eye, I walked to the T-junction again, but this time I was quite surprised, the street lights were actually black this time, not lit. If it's not lit, it's not lit, I thought at the time, it's best not to light up, so as to save a flicker, flickering and flickering, and my heart should respond.

When I came to the cemetery, the old man waited at the bottom of the steps again, and this time, he made a few dishes in the room, and the wine had been poured, but the old man was still very enthusiastic, and asked me why I didn't come, and I didn't explain much to him.

After entering the room, the old man advised me to drink, but I don't know why, I found at this time, as long as Qiang Shun is not by my side, I rarely open up to drink with people, and drinking is also a symbolic point to the end, as if, these people are not worthy of me to drink with them, even now, it has been seven or eight years since Qiang Shun died, so many years, I have never met a person who can really drink with me, sometimes, drinking is also drinking the heart, the heart is close to drink more, the heart is far away to drink less, Or even not to drink.

After drinking two glasses, the old man still wanted to pour it for me, so I hurriedly waved my hand, and said that if I drank too much, I would not be able to do the right thing, and when the old man heard this, he stopped persuading me.

At this time, the time had come to more than twelve o'clock, but until now, I have not seen the ghost of the Republic of China come out after beating me and the old man started drinking.

At this time, I asked the old man, "Daya, we have been waiting for more than an hour, why hasn't this ghost come out today?" ”

The old man took a sip of his own wine, seemed to be quite puzzled, and said, "I don't know, usually I would have come out at this time." ”

The two of them stopped talking, and after a pause, the old man got up from his chair and said, "No, no, no, I want to pee again, you wait for me for a while." ”

When I heard this, I frowned slightly, and an uncertain thought appeared in my heart, because I have been here three times, and this phenomenon has occurred twice, and this third time, will this phenomenon also appear?

I watched the old man leave the room and burrow into the bush. After a long pause, suddenly, the old man's face appeared outside the window with a cold face, this time the light in the room was on, and I looked at the old man by the light that came out of the window, the old man's face was pale at this time, one hand held the flashlight in his trousers, and the other hand quickly pointed to the bush behind him.

I immediately frowned again, and said in my heart, why is it so evil? This is the third time this has happened.,I found out at this time.,As soon as this old man goes into the forest to pee.,That thing comes out.,If you don't pee, it doesn't seem to come out.,This,It shouldn't be a coincidence.。

The old man saw that I was still not moving, and urged me outside the window: "Master Liu, Master Liu, that thing is coming out again, you should come out quickly." ”

I got up and picked up a black plastic bag from under the table, which contained what I had asked the old man to prepare during the day. Walking out of the room with a plastic bag, the old man had already fastened his trousers, raised his hand and pointed to the depths of the bush, and whispered to me, "He's right there." ”

I looked into the depths of the bushes, it was pitch black, I couldn't see anything, I looked back at the old man, and said to the old man, "Daya, there's nothing to do with you here, go back to your room, turn off the lights, and don't come out until you are not told to do so." ”

The old man nodded and fled back to the room, I carried a plastic bag unhurriedly into the bushes, in the forest walked about ten meters away, I saw the depths of the forest, a black shadow swaying back and forth, still with his head down, as if looking for something, just this black shadow, in my eyes is very normal, but in the eyes of normal people, they must be scared.

I didn't dare to go any further to the shadow, so I found a slightly larger bush nearby, crouched behind it, and poured out all the contents of the plastic bag.

There are some things in the plastic bag, but there are not many things: yellow paper, red head rope, wicker, peach wood wedges, and the rest are all incense ash, and there is another bag of incense ash.

With all these things in order, I leaned out from behind the bushes and looked at the dark shadows not far away. At this time, I mainly want to judge the range and regularity of the black shadow's movements, and then put up a formation to catch him.

I saw the black shadow circling around the bushes around him, and there was no sign of leaving or leaving, and the range of activities was not very large, so I immediately relieved myself.

The red-headed rope was unfolded and measured, and then visually measured the range of a hillside under the black shadow, the red-headed rope was almost twenty meters long, and counted the number of peach wedges, eight, and all of them were the old man's scale according to what I said.

Then he picked up a large piece of yellow paper, folded it in half a few times, tore out six paper people, picked up the paper man, the red head rope, the peach wood wedge, and the bag of fragrant ash, went straight down the mountain, and went around to the bottom of the bush, that is, the bottom of the black shadow's range, without alarming the black shadow, the eight peach wood wedges were like a net, and the fan was pierced into the ground, and the two peach wood wedges on both sides were about eighteen meters apart, and then the torn paper people were worn on the red head rope, and the red head rope was wrapped around those peach wood wedges. It is equivalent to connecting all those peach wedges together, and at the same time, between every two peach wedges, leaving a paper figure, in this way, it is made into a fan-shaped barrage, the red head rope is about ten centimeters from the ground, to put it bluntly, it is like a stumbling rope, and then, sprinkle the incense ash behind the red head rope.

Red head rope, incense ash, this is equivalent to sealing the way down the mountain for the black shadow.

Finally, I went back to the bushes before, took the wicker, and quietly went around to the area where the black shadow was, and when I was ready, Huo Ran appeared not far from the black shadow and shouted at the black shadow.
