Chapter 45: A Hundred Ghosts Walk at Night

I listened to his strange experience and fell silent. But after thinking about it for less than five seconds, I decided to put this matter aside for a while, after all, there are still too many uncertain factors in it, and it doesn't help to speculate more. Let's take it one step at a time.

The three of them didn't pursue it too much, after all, I already said that this is all a dream, and when it comes to these suspenseful concepts, ordinary people don't need to make logical inferences.

After eating, we continue to move forward, after all, this is the North China Plain, the terrain as a whole is a flat river, occasionally there are a few hills, at most it is a small dirt bag. Looking into the distance, large fields occupy the view, but unfortunately it is not as fertile as the land in the northeast, and the crops are not so luxuriant, and you can faintly see a few villages in the distance.

After all, we walked on a country road, not as wide and unobstructed as the official road, with potholes and many stones, which was a very big test for the wood-wheeled car we were sitting on. Father Yan said that at this rate, it is estimated that it will take about a month to walk to Luoyang.

As it approached evening, it rained as if it had been raining for nothing, but it was enough to wet the dirt on the road, and I could clearly feel that the wheels were beginning to slip and that there was a danger of capsizing into the nearby gutter at any moment.

Father Yan looked forward, saw a few faint lights, and shouted, "Stinky boy, it seems to be a village in front, I think we will stay there tonight!" ”

My side had already driven the horses in fear, and immediately responded: "Okay! Then he drove cautiously and with great difficulty towards the light.

But after walking for a while, I felt that the lights did not look like the oil lamps lit by ordinary people, there were many of them, as if they were moving slowly, and they were approaching us.

I think it's strange that if it were the occasional pedestrian on the road, there wouldn't be such a large number. But if it were a lot of people, how could they act so collectively on such a rainy night?

Father Yan also felt strange, and said in a low voice: "It seems that something is wrong." ”

Rui in the car was deaf and bright-eyed, and when he heard what he said, he immediately poked his head out of the curtain and said, "What's wrong?" She looked in the direction I was pointing, and saw the lights, frowning, and looking quite puzzled.

I made a quick decision and pulled the carriage to the side a little bit. I wanted to respond to all changes with the same and see what the people in front of me wanted to do. Later, I thought that Wang Shaoting's injury was not healed, and if he waited until he encountered it before reacting, he would fall into passivity, so it was better to strike first.

Immediately leaned close to Rui Wei's ear and whispered: "Let's go, let's go over and have a look, if the situation is not good, see the ghost and the ghost, see the person beating people." Then he asked his father and Wang Shaoting to get out of the car together, and first go to the grass next to the ditch to hide for a while.

Immediately afterwards, he Rui Wei went one after the other, facing those points of light.

By this time it was already dark, and the sky was covered with thick clouds, and the surroundings became almost pitch black. We didn't dare to rush too fast, and when we were less than two hundred meters away from those points of light, I stopped and stopped.

I saw dozens of staggering humanoid black shadows walking towards me, some tall and some short, some fat and some thin, and the parts of their faces were not real. Some of them, as if they were holding lanterns in their hands, were affected by the light rain, and the lights flickered, reflecting the shadows of people nearby.

I whispered to Rui, "What do you think? Is it a human or a ghost? ”

She stared at the dark shadows for a few seconds, then whispered, "Not sure, I'll have to get closer." But she moved slightly in her sleeve, and I guess she had already taken out the dementor stick and held it in her hand.

The rain was also strange, the raindrops were very small, even if there was no wind, they floated in the air, flying irregularly, falling lightly on the face and hands, followed by an indescribable chill in the heart, which was really suitable for the tension that the two of us were preoccupied.

150 meters, 100 meters...... It's getting closer. Rui Wei suddenly shouted: "Look! ”

I took a closer look, and at the moment when the lights flickered, I could see that some of the people in the darkness were obviously much taller than the others, such as ...... There was an extra head, and the part of the neck was as thin as a finger, and when it walked, it swayed, as if the extra head was about to fall off.

I was a little shocked in my heart, as a professional medical staff, I am not afraid of people, whether it is the living or the dead, or even the miserable dead, and all kinds of parts of the human body, in my opinion, they are all ordinary things, and there are rules to follow.

When I first started to study at the secondary school, there was a course dedicated to practicing our guts, specifically to go to the laboratory and spend the night with the dead. It was not an ordinary dead person, it was soaked in a huge glass bottle filled with formalin solution as a specimen after death, and sometimes it felt a vibration, and Bai Huahua's body would squirm gently with the solution, just like a real person. I often look at that face and wonder if this person will suddenly open his eyes to look at me.

The content of the exercise is to sleep with this thing for a night. It's such a simple exercise, and there are many people who can't complete it, some are too scared to go, some go to escape in the middle of the night, there is no way, it's all women, and I especially like to tell them ghost stories before they go.

As for me, I didn't take this environment seriously at all, and I still snored thunderily when I slept.

This is probably one of the benefits of a materialist education, the preconceived notion that there are no ghosts in the world.

But since I left the Northeast and came to Beijing, my outlook on life has suddenly been a little reversed, and whether what I used to believe is true or not has become unclear, and I have begun to be in awe of these supernatural things.

Seeing the strange form of those black shadows now, my heart began to grow, and I asked Rui worriedly, "Is it really a ghost?" What type of ghost is it? ”

Although I couldn't make out her face, I could clearly see that she was glaring at me, and that look was full of contempt. But her next words made me feel like I had given me a big hug, and it was extremely warm.

She said, "What the hell, that's a man, with an umbrella." ”

Also, how can there be a ghost with an umbrella, and the ghost is not afraid of being wet, it turns out that the top of the head is an umbrella, but I was preconceived a little timid, so I failed the vision of 5.2 in my eyes!

But for the sake of caution, I still didn't take the initiative to lean in, waiting for them to come slowly. When I really got closer, I saw that it was really a group of people, and there were dozens of people, some old and some young, some with umbrellas, some with lanterns, supporting each other, walking slowly on the road.

Just when they were only a dozen meters away from us, I let Rui Wei stay still and took the initiative to walk over. Chao led a few people politely smiled politely: "Hello everyone! In Xia Tao Yong, I happened to pass by here, and I wanted to go to the village in front of me to stay, but I don't know if you are people from the village in front? ”

Changing his name to Tao Yong, one is that I think this is more accustomed, and the other is to avoid Tao Zhihuan's reputation from causing trouble outside. Besides, it has to match Wang Shaoting's title of "Brave Boss"!

At the forefront is a middle-aged man, judging from his dress, his family should be relatively wealthy. The person who followed him was thin and tall, older than him next year, but he held a lantern in one hand and an umbrella in the other. When the middle-aged man heard my words, he seemed a little irritated and said, "Yes, our village does not accept outsiders, let's go!" ”

I smiled and said, "You see it's so dark and it's raining, it's really inconvenient for us to travel anymore, just spend the night overnight, and we can pay for what we need to eat." ”

I thought he was a snob, and he refused to do it when he didn't see the benefits. Unexpectedly, after I said this, he still waved his sleeves and said, "No reception, no reception!" ”

At this time, the uncle beside him couldn't help but accost: "Young man, it's not that we don't want to entertain you, it's really a little inconvenient, I didn't see that we all escaped, our village is haunted at night!" ……”

Uncle Fugui stopped him sharply and said, "Why are you talking to him about this? ......" then beckoned to the people behind him, "Hurry up!" Hurry up! ”

As soon as they mentioned the word "ghost", my eyes lit up, and I clapped my hands and smiled: "That's really a coincidence, I happen to have a companion here, who specializes in catching ghosts!" ”

I was thinking that wouldn't God help me, but I actually happened to run into Rui Wei's strengths, if this helped them solve the problem of haunting, maybe not only the problem of borrowing money was solved, maybe they could also make some money!

But it turns out that I was wrong again, not only Uncle Fugui, but even the few people who walked in front behind him, when they heard the word "catch ghosts", they were all shocked, and waved their hands again and again and said: "No need!" No more! ”

This abnormal behavior made me suspicious, and at this time, Rui Wei also happened to catch up from behind, seeing this scene, her face sank, and she also showed a suspicious look.

But this aroused my curiosity, and I reached out to block Uncle Fugui's way, and asked, "This is strange, since it is haunted, why don't you let me catch it?" ”

The obvious panic on Uncle Fugui's face confirmed that there was something strange in this. I deliberately said loudly to Rui Wei: "I said, junior sister, didn't Master teach us that we should take it as our duty to drive away evil and help righteousness!" When the road is uneven, draw a sword to help, we will take it as a good thing and help them get rid of those ghosts for free! ”

Rui Wei almost vomited when he heard this, and said to me in his eyes: What kind of master's teachings, have you seen my master!

But the crowd began to stir up at these words, and some of the young juniors rushed up, their faces flushed with anger, as if I had dug up his ancestral grave.

Uncle Fugui saw that the scene was a little out of control, and his attitude softened suddenly, and he came over and persuaded me with good words: "This brother, it turns out that you two are still skilled masters, disrespectful and disrespectful, so let's do it, although it is a little inconvenient to go to the village now, but we still have a place to settle down on the mountain in front, if you don't dislike it, come with us over there to arrange your food and lodging?" ”

As soon as I heard it, in order to prevent us from entering the village, I proposed such a rich proposition, and it seems that there is a lot of literature in this village. But the biggest problem now is to arrange these people, and the rest will be taken care of after I have eaten and drunk enough!
