Section 12 Removal of spirits

"Brother Peng, what is this?" Xiao Qiu couldn't help but ask.

"It can't be a crime, right?" Xiaobei also asked.

"It's okay, dig, I'll take care of it." Zhang Peng patted his chest and said.

Xiao Qiu and Xiao Bei glanced at each other, both looking a little hesitant. Xiao Yunuo walked over and said, "Brother Xiaoqiu, Brother Xiaobei, what we do is to do the right thing for heaven and not break the law." ”

"If the police uncle knows, maybe he will send you a little red flower." Xiao Tianqing said crisply.

Xiao Qiu and Xiao Bei finally put their minds at ease and continued to dig. It's not that they don't believe Zhang Peng, but this matter is too weird. However, many people in the compound have seen the master from Lotus Mountain, who is extraordinary, dusty, and very unusual. I also know that the Xiao family sisters studied under the masters, and they are far from being comparable to ordinary husbands and vulgars, so they no longer hesitate.

After a few moments, the wooden box was lifted, about a meter long, half a meter wide, and seventy centimeters high. It's not very heavy, about fifty or sixty kilograms. It's an old-fashioned wooden box with an arc-shaped top. The closure was wrapped in a circle of iron, and a lot of willow nails were punched, and there was rust on it.

"What's in there?" Zhang Peng took the portable lamp and observed for a while, and asked Xiao Yunuo.

"I fear the true body of the evil spirit, but the spirit body has dissipated, and there is no threat for the time being." Xiao Yunuo turned his head to look at the Jetta and said, "Just get some gasoline and firewood and burn it." ”

Xiao Qiu climbed out of the dirt pit and was about to go back to the car to smoke some gasoline, but Zhang Peng suddenly stopped him and said that he wanted to open it and take a look.

"There might be antiques or something." Zhang Peng said. Most of the surface of the box has fallen off with red paint, and judging from the exposed wood grain, it must be made of large pieces of camphor wood. In other words, this box is quite valuable, and the average poor family cannot afford it.

"Antiques?" Xiao Qiu and Xiao Bei turned their faces sideways at the same time and looked at the wooden box. Speaking of money, no one doesn't like it, even Xiao Tianqing's eyes lit up.

Since you're going to burn it, why don't you open it up and take a look at it first. Zhang Peng threw an inquiring look at Xiao Yunuo, who closed his eyes and looked away, which means "no eyes". Zhang Peng was immediately overjoyed, and urged Xiaoqiu Xiaobei, "Quickly get the tools and open the box." ”

After a while, Xiao Qiu took a crowbar from the trunk of the car, first carried the wooden box out of the pit with Xiaobei, then put on a mask and began to pry the lid of the box.

"Squeak...... Squeak......"

Zhang Peng was far away, stretched his neck to look over, and Xiao Tianqing was holding his arm, nervous.

This wooden box is very hard, Xiao Qiu pried for several minutes, only opened a gap, and replaced it with Xiao Bei to continue prying.

"Squeak...... Click...... Click......"

"Click!"

With a crisp sound of metal breaking, the wooden lid jerked upward, and a foul smell rushed out. Xiao Qiu and Xiao Bei hurriedly covered their noses and stepped back. Zhang Peng was more than ten meters away, and he was so stinky that he wanted to vomit, and the smell was like meat that had rotted for a long time, which was both pungent and disgusting.

After a few minutes, the stench was much less, but it was still disgusting. Xiaobei took a flashlight to shine in, and after seeing it clearly, he involuntarily took a few steps back, and retched with a "wow" sound.

"What's that?" Zhang Peng asked.

Xiaobei was still a little sluggish, Xiaoqiu was bolder, stepped forward to take a look, and said to Zhang Peng, "A corpse." Then he observed for a moment and added, "Looks like a teenager and is holding something...... Like a ......," he rummaged with a crowbar, "a doll." ”

Zhang Peng approached the past, endured the vomiting sensation in his stomach, looked at it a few times, and then squatted aside and retched.

Xiao Qiu overturned the box and poured out all the things. Xiao Tianqing hid behind Xiao Yunuo, wanting to see but not daring to look.

I saw the yellowed corpse, the whole body was decomposed, white bones were exposed everywhere, curled into a ball, and a light green doll was held in his arms.

"Huh?" Xiao Qiu found a small package and picked it up with a crowbar, and the rotten cloth cracked in one fell swoop, and with a "bang", a pile of silver shiny things poured out.

Zhang Peng and Xiaobei immediately came to their senses, leaned over to take a look, but were disappointed, they were all coins of one dollar. But there are a lot of them, and it looks like there are thousands of pieces.

Xiao Qiu rummaged for a while, but didn't find anything valuable, so he went back to the car and got half a tank of gas. Xiaobei found some dead branches and leaves everywhere, piled them on the corpse, poured gasoline on them, and lit a fire.

The fire burned for nearly half an hour, and when it was almost over, Xiao Qiu and Xiao Bei used shovels to shovel the ash back into the pit and refill it with soil.

By the time it was ready, it was almost five o'clock in the morning. The sound of roosters crowing everywhere, and seeing that the villagers were about to come out, the five of them got into the car and went straight to the compound of the power plant.

Xiaobei counted in the car, and there were more than 1,800 coins in the pile. Zhang Peng said generously that he would pay them for their hard work. Xiao Qiu said no, those who saw it had a share, turned around and exchanged it for a red ticket, and gave Zhang Peng 500.

At half past six, Zhang Peng and the two sisters returned home. The three of them took a new bath, and Xiao Yunuo made some fried eggs and ham sausages. Zhang Peng was still a little sick to his stomach, and he couldn't eat some eggs.

After breakfast, the three of them went back to their rooms to sleep. Zhang Peng has been frightened these days, and he has not slept well, and as soon as he lay down, he made a slight snoring sound, and slept soundly and deeply.

When I woke up, it was three o'clock in the afternoon.

Zhang Peng opened his eyes and looked left and right, the Xiao family sisters who were still sleeping soundly suddenly had a feeling of being separated from the world. He felt so relieved that he decided to get some sleep.

It wasn't until half past five, when Ma Jinglei called for dinner below, that they woke up. After brushing her teeth and washing her face, when she went down, Ma Jinglei had already set up a small pergola, set up the meal, and looked at them with an unhappy face. Both sisters kept their heads bowed and did not dare to speak.

"Auntie, it's all my fault, I dragged them to watch a movie with me last night, but I didn't pay attention for a while, and it was too late." Zhang Peng hurriedly stepped forward and took the initiative to admit his mistake.

Ma Jinglei smiled at Zhang Peng and said, "It's still our Xiaopeng who is the most sensible." Then he pulled Zhang Peng to sit down, and then shouted at the two daughters with a straight face, "Don't come soon, the food is cold." ”

"Oh~" The two sisters said in unison, walked over obediently, automatically and consciously cooked the meal, and then sat still, not daring to move the chopsticks.

It wasn't until Ma Jinglei opened her mouth and said, "Don't eat it yet", that they picked up the dishes and chopsticks and ate them.

"Aunt Ma, your skills are getting better and better, each dish is so delicious, much better than the chefs of those five-star hotels outside. Compared to you, they are literally making pig food. ”

"I suddenly found that you are not like three mothers and daughters, but like three sisters."

"Auntie is so beautiful, if my mother had half of you, I would definitely be so handsome that I would shock the world."

During the banquet, Zhang Peng's mouth seemed to be smeared with honey, and Ma Jinglei's heart was full of joy, and she vigorously served him vegetables.

When the two sisters saw that Zhang Peng had even sold his mother in order to please Ma Jinglei, they turned their heads from time to time and snickered.

After a meal, Ma Jinglei was not only angry, but also in a very good mood, and even agreed to drink a bottle of soda with her two daughters for the first time. Ma Jinglei has extremely strict requirements for them, and since they were young, they were not allowed to eat snacks and drink cold drinks indiscriminately, saying that it would affect the development of girls, so they rarely ate except for meals.

And she is the other extreme to Zhang Peng, pampering, coaxing, and protecting, almost unprincipled. For so many years, he has never even said a word heavy, even if he is naughty, he still smiles gently, "Xiaopeng is still young and ignorant." ”

As for her own daughter, at the age of four she was beaten with a little rattan and could not make a single mistake.

That night, the two sisters spent the night at Zhang Peng's house. However, as usual, the rooms were divided, Zhang Peng slept in the big room, and they slept in the small room.

Early the next morning, the two sisters took a factory car into the city and went back to school.

Zhang Peng slept until more than ten o'clock before getting up, and after half an hour, he ate a bowl of noodles at Ma Jinglei's, got on the factory car at noon, and went back to work in the city.

said that he was going to work, but in fact, he was passing the time, and it was unrealistic to ask him to brave the scorching sun, walk through the streets and alleys, and sell daily necessities everywhere. He actually thought about developing Ma Jinglei into a customer. But Ma Jinglei took a look at their products and said that the quality was too poor to trap the old neighbors in the factory, so Zhang Peng had to give up.

When I returned to the company, it was already one o'clock at noon, I said hello to Aunt Zhou, the accountant, blew a few cows with the salesman Xiao Tang, and drank tea with the boss Zhang Dazhong for half a day, and Zhang Peng's day's work was over.

I got on the bus, returned to the compound, had dinner at Ma Jinglei's, went home to watch TV for a while, and the day passed like this.

On Wednesday, according to Zhang Dazhong's request, he came to the ancestral hall of Wangjia Village on behalf of the company "Dazhong Commodity Co., Ltd." to attend Lao Wang's funeral.

When the incense was offered, there were words in his mouth.

"Uncle Wang, I avenged you, burned to ashes and buried."

"Actually, I wanted to call you an ambulance that day, but I didn't know your address, so I couldn't say."

"I took your 500 yuan myself, this is what we said it was, it's not weird."

"As for the two hundred, you won't need them anyway, so you should be ......"

"I'm funding people in need."

"Do charity, accumulate blessings and virtues, you are down there, and you can live comfortably."

"I wish you to be reincarnated as a rich second generation in the future, and you will no longer worry about your wife."

"Uncle Wang, if you think Xiaopeng is okay, the candle will not be extinguished, and I will know."

As soon as Zhang Peng's words fell, suddenly a gust of wind blew, and a candle was extinguished.

"Hey, why did the candle go out?" "yes, what's wrong?" "Where's the wind?" The villagers wondered and re-lit it.

"Wocao ......" Zhang Peng scolded in his heart, and then said to Lao Wang's black and white photo, "Lao Wang, as for it?" ”

The wind rose again, and the candle went out again.

"Hiss......" The villagers took a cool breath at the same time.

Zhang Peng was angry, ruthless, and said in a low voice, "Lao Wang, you are not my brother's opponent, I advise you to give up early, otherwise my brother will let you be ruined, just like that broken doll." ”
