Sending Zhao Yu'er away, I was nervous and extremely depressed, I was thinking that the second uncle might have really brought back something terrible last time in the Shiyaba Boss Hong Mourning Hall.

"Brother, what's wrong with you?" The little sister who had been following me asked worriedly when she saw that my face was pale and worried.

I turned my head to look at my little sister, who was a head shorter than me, and saw that her face was full of uneasiness, so I took her hand and asked very seriously: "Little sister, do you think something is wrong with the second uncle?" Especially at night! ”

"Huh?" Xiaomei was frightened by my sudden question, and she couldn't speak, looking at her like this, I knew that she must have sensed that something was wrong with the second uncle, maybe Xiaomei knew more than me.

Now that I see my little sister's panicked appearance, I will definitely not be wrong, I asked: "Little sister, am I your brother?" ”

Xiaomei lowered her head and nodded, looking a little aggrieved and said, "Of course." ”

"You treat me as a brother, then you tell me the truth, do you know anything?"

Xiaomei raised her head and saw that my face was serious, and she hesitated and said, "Brother, there is something, I don't know if I want to tell you, I'm scared ......"

"What's the matter! Don't be afraid, there is a brother, don't hide anything in your heart, I will protect you. "A stone suddenly hung in my heart, and sure enough, my little sister hid something from my second uncle and didn't let me know.

"Brother, the night you and Dad went out to pay for the tuition, I woke up from the toilet at night and found that there was one more person in my room......" Xiaomei said that the whole body trembled, and then pulled my arm, although it was daytime, but I could see how afraid Xiaomei was at this time.

I reached out and touched her head to comfort her, I didn't ask, my little sister is not in a good mood now, I have to listen patiently to her tell the truth of the matter.

Xiaomei breathed a sigh of relief and continued: "I woke up that night, the room was dark, and when I opened my eyes, I found that there was one more person in the room, and I couldn't see his appearance clearly, but looking at the familiar figure, I knew who it was, and it would never be wrong if it was my father." ”

"Second uncle? Most of the night, I was afraid that you would catch a cold, so I went to your room to cover you with a quilt, and you don't want to think about it," I comforted, not wanting my little sister to be afraid.

"Brother! No! Daddy didn't go to my room to cover me with a quilt! The little sister suddenly became emotional, raised her head and a pair of watery eyes actually shed tears, Chu Chu said pitifully: "Dad sneaked into my room, and when he entered the room, he behaved very terrible, walked like a mouse without sound, and sniffed everywhere on the walls around my room, as if there was something delicious in my room." When I woke up, I saw my dad like this, I didn't dare to make a sound and continued to lie on the bed, my dad kept sniffing and sniffing on my bed, kept sniffing on me, sniffed for a while and didn't move, and squatted beside my bed in a daze, the room was very dark, but I could feel Dad's eyes watching me. ”

"That second uncle hasn't done anything out of the ordinary, little sister, you know better than me what kind of person the second uncle is, you are his biological daughter, he won't harm you." I said.

"Brother, after you listen to me, I quickly closed my eyes in a panic, and then I heard a low dark laugh from my father, and the strangest thing is that the laughter was not made by my father at all!" The little sister said in horror: "Dad laughed for a while and kept dancing strange in my room, it was weird and scary, and then I found that Dad would come to my room every night and do the same thing, brother, did you say that Dad was haunted by ghosts!?" ”

"How is that possible? The little sister is cranky, you can go to your brother's room tonight and sleep together. I pretended to smile and replied, but my heart was like a mess, listening to what my little sister said, I remembered the second uncle eating chicken blood and the whole village dog died three days ago, and said from Zhao Yuer's mouth that the ghost cave saw the second uncle is a ghost, I am now sure that the second uncle may really be haunted by ghosts, but now I can't tell my little sister about it, let alone tell Erniang that I haven't figured out what is going on.

"Yu'er, Yan'er has been looking for you for a long time, you are here!"

I turned my head to see the second uncle's honest face looking at me and my little sister with a smile, and the second uncle saw that the little sister was scared, and stretched out his hand to touch her, "Yan'er, what's wrong with you?" ”

Unexpectedly, the little sister avoided the second uncle directly, ran behind me, and buried her head in my back in fear, I could feel the little sister trembling at this time.

"Second uncle, why are you here, my little sister was frightened by what happened last night and stuck to me." I wanted to pull the little sister out behind me, but unfortunately this girl really stuck to me this time.

"It's okay, Yan'er has been timid since she was a child, Yu'er, you have to take care of your sister more." The second uncle didn't seem to take this matter seriously.

"Second uncle, do you have something to do with me?"

"Yes, I'm looking for you, Erniang said that the chickens at home were drunk blood by weasels, and all died, at this time your Erniang is sulking at home, I look distressed, I look distressed, I want you to go to the market to buy a few chickens and come back to captivity, rural people can't live without raising some chickens and ducks," the second uncle said.

"All the chickens in the house are dead? When did it happen? Wasn't it okay last night? I asked suspiciously, suspecting that the chickens at home were sucked to death by weasels, thinking of the second uncle licking the chicken blood last time, I felt a chill in my heart, wondering if it would be the second uncle who sucked all the chickens in the house out of blood, looking at the second uncle's slightly wrinkled old face, I still couldn't believe that the second uncle was a ghost.

"It's probably five or six in the morning, who knows, anyway, your second mother fed the chickens in the morning and found that all the chickens in the chicken pen died." When the second uncle said this, he paused, threw out two hundred yuan from his trouser belt and handed it to me, and continued: "Your second mother will give you two hundred yuan, you go to the market to see how many chickens you can buy back, and you can buy as many ...... as you can."

"Second uncle, two hundred dollars is too much, the little chicks can buy a lot of back, why do we have so many chickens in our family......"

I didn't say anything, and the second uncle took out ten pieces of Mao Grandpa from another trouser belt on his body and stuffed it to me and said anxiously: "Don't want a little chicken, there are a thousand or two, you go to the market to see how many big roosters you can buy back, buy as many as you can!" ”

I looked at the money in my hand, I didn't come back to my senses, when did the second uncle have so much money, my college tuition is still a problem, now give me more than 1,000 to buy seven or eight big roosters in the market, the question is why do you buy big roosters? Rural people have a big rooster in the family, and what is even more suspicious is that the second uncle said that the big rooster was swallowing saliva in his throat, something was wrong, I secretly said in my heart.

"Second uncle, why do you buy so many big roosters?" I didn't break it and continued: "How can I get it back by myself after buying so many big cocks, and does the second uncle have anything else to do?" Why don't you come with me to the fair? "Actually, I want to say why he didn't buy it himself, but gave me money to buy it.

"Your second mother is sad, I have to go back to comfort her, you just take Yan'er to the market together." When the second uncle replied, his eyes avoided me slightly, such a small detail still did not escape my eyes, looking at the second uncle's appearance, it seemed that he did not dare to go to the market, afraid of something.

"Yu'er, then this matter will be left to you, you must buy the big back." After the second uncle finished speaking, he didn't wait for me to reply, and turned around and walked towards the village.

After the second uncle left, the little sister walked out cautiously from behind me, pulled my clothes, and whispered with complicated eyes: "Brother, I don't dare to go home......"

"Then why don't you go home now, brother will take you to the market to play, today is just in time for the market, what do you want to eat, brother will help you buy it."

"Brother, you're so nice." My little sister jumped around me excitedly, and her mood improved a lot.

And on the way to the market, I was always unhappy, and I was always worried about the second uncle's affairs, and I couldn't figure out why the second uncle didn't dare to come to the market to buy chickens by himself.

"Hey, you two little girls, don't get in the way, I'm missing the hour, I have to drink the northwest wind again today!" At this time, an old man's voice shouted behind him.

The little sister grabbed a rock sugar gourd in her hand, chewed one in her mouth, turned her head dissatisfied and shouted: "Why are you like this, you take so many things to walk, and you can't get through half the road." ”

I glanced back, and it turned out to be a Taoist priest, no, it should be said that he was a charlatan, a fortune teller. The little sister is also understandable for being dissatisfied with the old man, originally today is to catch the market, the road is not wide, people come and go, the old man is holding a rod in his right hand, "Listen to your words, you can avoid disasters, count a hexagram, you can keep safe, a hexagram is ten yuan!" The signboard dragged two cages of chickens in his left hand, blocking half of the road.

"Little girl, how do you talk?" The old man was extremely dissatisfied when he heard what the little sister said, so he came to the little sister and took a look, originally thought that he was going to refute two sentences, but he didn't expect to turn around directly and didn't say a word, squeezing us away and walking forward.

"You wait," I quickly called out to him.

The little sister raised her head and looked at me suspiciously, not understanding why I stopped the old man.

"Little doll, what's the matter with your old man?" The old man turned his head, and his cloudy pupils flashed a shrewdness, as if he was a little wary of me.

"How do you sell your chickens?" I asked, the second uncle wants to buy chickens to go back, no matter what, I have to buy them back, especially now that I know that the second uncle is not a normal person, but also to meet his requirements, if the chickens in the family are not sucked up by the weasel but by the second uncle, then there are no chickens at home now, I dare not imagine that the second uncle will do anything out of line.

The old man stared at me for a long time, sighed and said, "I don't sell you this chicken, you are going to die, what kind of chicken do you eat?" ”

"What did you say?" I was surprised.

"Oh, how do you speak, don't rely on the old and sell the old, you can curse my brother just because you're old, my brother is so dignified, how can he die, you talk nonsense!" The little sister suddenly became anxious when she heard the old man's words.

"I'm telling the truth, little girl, don't talk about your brother, you are the same, Yintang is black, and you don't know that a catastrophe is coming, and most of the people around you are haunted by ghosts and don't know it, ignorance!" After saying that, the old man shook his head and ignored us.
