Chapter 40: The Legend

In fact, not only Secretary Wang wanted to figure out what was going on, but I also wanted to know what was going on. Last night's events were so chaotic. I broke Xiao Liu and her boyfriend, saw Sister Wang and a white skeleton, and saw the shadow on Xue Qian's body.

I felt a little dizzy, so I slowly closed my eyes and began to sort out my thoughts.

After a while, Secretary Wang patted me on the shoulder and said, "Brother Zhao, can you speak now?" ”

I opened my eyes and saw that the vial was almost finished, and the nurse was about to pull out the needle.

I opened my mouth and felt a slight pain in my throat, but it didn't matter if I spoke quietly.

So I nodded and said, "I'm fine." Then I propped myself up on the bed and slowly sat up.

I turned my head to look, but Xue Qian hadn't woken up yet. I sighed: "Yesterday was really thrilling. ”

Secretary Wang waved his hand: "Brother Zhao, there are many people here, let's go out and talk." ”

Then, he lifted me up like a prisoner and helped me slowly downstairs.

The two of us sat on chairs on the first floor. There were people coming and going, but no one noticed the two of us.

Secretary Wang patted my thigh: "Brother Zhao, you went to catch a ghost last night, right?" ”

I nodded: "Secretary Wang is like a god." ”

Secretary Wang laughed and said, "I understand when I see your knife." ”

Then I remembered my two treasures, and quickly asked, "Where is my knife?" Did you pick it up? ”

Secretary Wang nodded: "Don't worry, it's all picked up." When I examined Xue Qian just now, I found a tooth in his mouth, which is also yours, right? As he spoke, Secretary Wang handed me a paper bag.

I opened it, looked at it, nodded, and said, "Yes, it's mine." Then I solemnly put it on.

Secretary Wang let out a sigh of relief and said, "Your knife is temporarily in the police station, but you don't have to worry, I can get it back for you." As for the white bones, you don't have to worry, the test results have come out, the man has been dead for decades, and you are probably still wearing open crotch pants at that time, we will not wrongfully accuse you of murder, haha. ”

I smiled bitterly twice, and then briefly told Secretary Wang what happened yesterday afternoon. Of course, I omitted Xiao Liu's boyfriend, and I also omitted the shadow on Xue Qian.

After hearing this, Secretary Wang was silent, and after a while, he hugged my fist: "Brother Zhao, I thank you for the people in our district." ”

I waved my hand: "Secretary Wang, every time you see me, you have to hold me up to the sky, I deserve it." ”

Secretary Wang didn't smile this time, he said very solemnly: "If it weren't for you, I wouldn't believe that the legend was true." ”

I was stunned for a moment and asked, "What legend?" ”

The district chief whispered in my ear: "Anyone who is a little old has heard a legend that there was a feng shui master back then, and he had long seen that there was an anti-dragon over there, and he was worried that one day the anti-dragon would be born, and it would inevitably be a disaster, so he went around and built such a brick tower with his own strength." ”

I nodded: "No wonder this brick tower is broken like this, it turned out to be built by turning edges everywhere, and there must not be much money." ”

Secretary Wang couldn't help but put on an official tone: "Hey, that's no way, the old society, the people don't have a good life, and everyone doesn't have much money." ”

Then he continued: "When the feng shui master left, he once said that this brick tower can only be pressed for a few decades, and after a long time, even if the reverse dragon will not be born, there will be evil ghosts in this place. After all, one side of the water and soil supports the other side, and it is not strange that one or two evil ghosts appear in that kind of vicious place. ”

I asked, "So, what did the feng shui master say?" ”

Secretary Wang nodded: "That master said that a few decades later, when the reverse dragon was extremely weak, dozens of walnut trees were planted in that place. Cut off the reverse dragon at the waist, and this feng shui will naturally be broken. ”

I asked curiously, "Why didn't you just plant trees back then?" That's a lot cheaper than building a brick tower, right? Ay? Why do you have to plant walnut trees? ”

Secretary Wang said: "Everything must be done step by step. Back then, the reverse dragon was in the limelight, and even if you planted a walnut tree, you couldn't live. Only one brick tower can be built, and it slowly wears out. As for why walnuts are grown. The master said that walnuts belong to fire, which is just right to restrain the yin energy of the reverse dragon. Moreover, this tree bears fruit every year, and these fruits can slowly uproot the evil energy of the dragon. ”

I nodded: "In this case, you can't eat the fruit from these trees, right?" ”

Secretary Wang nodded: "You can't eat it." Within three years, the eater will die. Within ten years, the eater will get sick. Ten years later, although it doesn't matter if you eat them, those walnuts will definitely be extremely unpalatable, and no one wants to eat them. ”

I nodded: "Secretary Wang has to explain it clearly to the surrounding residents." ”

Secretary Wang nodded: "Don't worry about this, I naturally have a way." ”

The two of us were talking there, and suddenly someone hurriedly walked over: "Master Zhao? Why are you here? Are you okay? ”

I looked up and saw that it was Xiao Liu, and the handsome boy was also following him.

Maybe it was because I broke their good deeds last night, and now I am a little embarrassed when I see the two of them, I said to Xiao Liu: "I'm fine, but I have a friend who hasn't woken up yet." ”

Then I asked him, "Are you looking for me?" Can I help you? ”

Xiao Liu said a little anxiously: "My sister-in-law has been asleep, and it is useless to call it." ”

As soon as I heard this, I couldn't help but pat my head: "Oops, I forgot about it." "Last night we had a big battle under the brick tower, but we forgot about Sister Wang's soul. There was a lot of chaos at that time, and no one paid attention to where she went, could it be that her soul was lost?

I stood up and said, "Take me to see it." ”

Then I hurried outside. I took two steps and said to Secretary Wang: "When Xue Qian wakes up, let him call me." ”

Secretary Wang nodded and agreed.

Xiao Liu and I hurriedly walked to Sister Wang's house. Sister Wang was lying upright on the bed, breathing very slowly, and she was really unconscious.

Xiao Liu asked me anxiously, "What should we do now?" ”

I waved my hand: "Don't worry, let me think of a way." "Actually, I can't do anything about it. The false name of this master is probably going to be exposed today.

When I was hesitating, I suddenly found a can of milk powder and a few small clothes on the table next to Sister Wang's bed.

I looked at Xiao Liu suspiciously: "She has a child?" ”

Xiao Liu said in surprise: "No, my brother has been dead for more than ten years." ”

I scratched my head: "That's weird." These things seem to be prepared for giving birth. Then, I said to Sister Wang: "Offended, offended." Then he lifted her covers.

After the quilt was lifted, everyone froze. Because Sister Wang's lower abdomen was slightly bulging, she was obviously pregnant.

The young man blurted out, "Your sister-in-law steals." ”

I shook my head: "It's supposed to be a ghost stealer." ”

Xiao Liu slowly sat next to him and asked in a low voice, "Stealing ghosts?" How could she steal ghosts? ”

I said, "I'm afraid the specific reason will only be known when she wakes up." But looking at her appearance, it seems that she plans to give birth to this child. ”

Xiao Liu drooped his head, as if he had no idea. kept muttering: "My sister-in-law has always been very conservative, and she usually doesn't gossip much, how can she do such a thing?" I just can't figure it out. ”

After a while, he slowly raised his head and said, "Master Zhao, no matter what, you can save my sister-in-law's life first, and the rest will be said when she wakes up." ”

I nodded, and said, "We need to find her soul first." Well, come with me to the brick tower and see if there are any clues. ”

At this time, it was getting late, and it was appropriate to find Sister Wang's soul. I took Xiao Liu and the boy and set off slowly.

Along the way, the boy was deadly silent. And he kept holding Xiao Liu's arm, and it could be seen that this young man was in love with Xiao Liu.

When we arrived at the brick tower, we found a sign on it saying that danger should not be entered.

A few of us ignored it and slipped down with our phones. But the inside has been cleaned up, nothing has been found, and the cold air from before has disappeared.

I walked around and sighed, "I'm afraid, the spirit isn't here." ”
