Chapter 20: Tell the Truth

These things, Jiang Li said whatever he wanted, I just need to follow his footsteps.

When I came home, I was still the same, and my father and grandmother were depressed.

Dad was smoking a smoky cigarette, grandma leaned back on the chair and stared at the roof and hummed, Jiang Li sat next to grandma in a chair at the back of the house, and said to grandma: "Old man, Chen Xiao and his grandfather's box, can you show me?" ”

Grandma didn't look back and pointed to the room where Grandpa had died before, and said, "It's on top of the cabinet, you can go and see for yourself." ”

Jiang Li's grace stood up and went to the side house to see his grandfather's box, and when Jiang Li entered the house, grandma mysteriously beckoned me to come over, I sat next to my grandmother, she took out the photo on her body again, pointed to the little girl staring at the camera behind her father and mother, and said, "Xiao Wazi, I really let this girl doll be your daughter-in-law?" Do you want it? ”

Such a good-looking little girl, if it was really my relative, or someone I knew in my family, I would definitely be willing to play with her, I used to be used to loneliness, and now I am anxious to have a playmate, and I don't know what a daughter-in-law is.

He fixed his head and said, "I want it." ”

Grandma smiled and touched my head: "Then I'll tell her, you can't bully her." ”

I said, "I see." ”

During the period when I was talking to my grandmother, Jiang Li also walked out of the side house, and as soon as my grandmother saw Jiang Li coming out, she immediately shut up and stopped talking about this matter, intentionally or unintentionally avoiding Jiang Li.

Jiang Li noticed something, but he didn't pierce the membrane, smiled and walked over and patted my head: "Go to sleep, I'm tired all day today." ”

I groaned, ran to the house and lay back on the bed, Jiang Li stayed in the hall to talk to my father and grandmother.

Now I sleep a lot more peacefully than before, and I fall asleep when I lie down.

I had a very strange dream at night.

I dreamed that the little girl in the picture my grandmother showed me was standing in the corner of my room, with her head down, and I was lying on the bed staring at her.

Before this dream was finished, I was woken up by Jiang Li, and when I woke up, I smelled a foul smell on the bed, and then I looked closely, I actually vomited in my sleep, and the bed was full of filth.

I immediately lifted the quilt and sat on the edge of the bed with an embarrassed face, I couldn't bear to look at the disgusting things on the bed, Jiang Li frowned, then stepped forward and touched my forehead, opened my eyes and looked at it, and didn't say what was going on, but said, "Go, go wash you." ”

It's late at night, my father and grandma have already rested, and it's too late to boil hot water, so Jiang Li scooped cold water and put it in the basin, asked me to take off my clothes and rub it for me, and complained while rubbing: "I, Jiang Li, have never done such a thing in my life, that is, you, if you were someone else, I would just pick it up and throw it out." ”

I was already embarrassed, and when he said that, I blushed to the base of my ears.

But just as it was about to be washed, the door was suddenly pushed open and there was a thud, and a black mass was thrown in through the crack in the door.

In the countryside, wooden doors are installed with large openings and closings, and even if the latch is inserted, a crack will be left, and the gap between the threshold and the door will be larger if you push it slightly.

Jiang Li immediately stood up and picked up the black thing, and when he opened it, it turned out to be a black shoe.

I came out of the basin, wrapped myself in Jiang Li's robe, and walked over and asked, "Master, what does this mean?" ”

Jiang Li said: "Shoes are homophonic to evil, someone throws shoes at your house, it is equivalent to throwing evil at your house, your family has been retaliated, I'm afraid there is something to come to the door tonight, go and help me bring my peach wood sword." ”

I immediately ran to get all the things Jiang Li brought, Jiang Li had a spare robe, he took out one and draped it on his body, squeaked open the door, took a chair and sat outside the door, and looked back at me: "You can continue to sleep, I'll keep watching, if you're afraid, stand behind me." ”

I grinned, and immediately crossed the threshold to stand behind Jiang Li, facing the dark night with him.

I stood there for a while, not noticing any movement, so I asked, "Master, are we mistaken?" No one came. ”

Jiang Li smiled and hooked his hand at me, I bent down, he wiped his fingers on my eyelids, I opened my eyes again, and my heart trembled.

The outside of this house was already densely packed with people, more than when we went to Du Hai's village before, not to mention hundreds, they gathered outside the house, looking at Jiang Li.

I was a little scared, Jiang Li didn't look back and said to me: "What are you afraid of, Master is here, and no one can enter the house." ”

I said, "Who the hell threw the shoes in?" ”

Jiang Li said: "This is also a kind of black witchcraft, called the truth, sometimes the words said will become a reality when people use them, it is called the truth." Some things are used by people to play their role, and they are called physical objects. This kind of curse technique is the same as Zhang Duangong's curse technique, from this point of view, that person is in the village, he didn't blatantly do it to us before, but now he can't wait, it means that we have touched his identity or interests, guess who else? ”

I don't have to think about it, today we went to see Grandpa Mi alone, Jiang Li also punctured the fact that the bracelet on Grandpa's hand has turned black, if it is really Grandpa, he must know that Jiang Li has suspected him, and this matter is the most likely thing for him to do.

"Grandpa." I say.

Jiang Li smiled but didn't say a word, still sitting at the door, and these lonely souls and wild ghosts surrounded outside were stunned and didn't dare to take half a step forward.

After sitting for about half an hour, the lonely ghosts and wild ghosts around outside gradually dispersed, and when they were all gone, Jiang Li stood up and tidied up his robe, and was just about to enter the house, when there was a fire next to the house, followed by the shouts of the villagers: "Has Master Jiang slept?" ”

Jiang Li looked at it intently, and after confirming that it was from the village, he replied, "No." ”

As the fire gradually grew, two old men in the village trotted forward, panting for a long time before they could hold back a sentence: "Something happened, Xiao Wazi and his grandfather had an accident." ”

Jiang Li and I were stunned, we just guessed that the shoes were thrown into my house by my grandfather, and there was not much time for my grandfather to have an accident.

Jiang Li immediately asked, "What's wrong with him?" ”

The villagers said, "If you are dead, go and see if you can be saved." ”

The voices of the people in the village woke up my father and grandmother, and they got dressed and came out and asked what was wrong, and after it was clear that my grandfather had an accident, I immediately followed them to my grandfather's house.

Death is a big deal, and many people in the village have gathered in front of the second grandfather's house, and the second grandfather is also there.

Seeing Jiang Li coming, they got out of the way and let Jiang Li in.

I followed Jiang Li closely, and when I walked into the house, I saw my grandfather leaning on his back on the chair, his eyes staring at the roof, and his body was already stiff.

Jiang Li reached out and touched his grandfather's body, and then said, "It's been a few hours since I died, how did the old man die?" Did you know? ”

The old man in the village said: "I got up in the middle of the night to pee, and when I saw that the lights in Chen Jiaxing's house were not turned off, I thought he hadn't slept. ”

If Grandpa Mi died a few hours ago, then it would definitely not be Grandpa Mi who threw things into our house, I looked up at Jiang Li slightly, wondering what he thought about this matter.

Jiang Li said: "Even the soul is gone, normal death will not be so fast, and the one who can take people's souls is either ghosts and gods, or Fangshi." ”

The people in the village immediately said, "Isn't Master Jiang a Taoist priest in the village?" ”

They talked about this matter without the slightest hint of obscurity, and naturally some people would think about it more, but Jiang Li didn't care, stood up and walked around the room, and finally put his eyes on the grandfather's cupboard.

Inside the cupboard was the food that my grandfather hadn't eaten at night, and there was a tin pot, Jiang Li stood in front of the tin pot for a while, then took the tin pot out, opened the lid and said, "There is corpse oil in it, and the old man died after eating corpse oil." ”

This sentence immediately made everyone in the village explode.

My old Chen family is not only a father-in-law and daughter-in-law, but now there is another one who eats oil on the dead man's body.

"Chen Jiaxing looks quite normal, how could he be so confused that he eats corpse oil? Master Jiang, are you mistaken? Some villagers questioned what Jiang Li said.

The father next to him said with a dilated look in his eyes at this time: "This is my father's oil." ”
