Chapter Seventy-Six: The Unexpected, the Unexpected

As he spoke, he looked into the door again, as if he was thinking about something, hesitated, as if he had finally made up his mind, his body flashed, let go of the door, and said, "Come in and sit, drink hot water to warm up." ”

"Brother, look at you, we all said we weren't thirsty, we had to be so enthusiastic, how embarrassed you were for us." Lei Baoquan stepped into the door as he spoke, followed by Li Bai and Jin Guo.

The four of them came to the door of the house back and forth, Zhou Ding walked a few steps quickly to the door, turned around and said to the three people: "I asked someone to get a home remedy, saying that it can cure my wife's illness, so don't be surprised if you go in for a while and see anything strange." ”

Li Bai smiled after hearing this, and said, "Don't worry, uncle, we have seen a lot of strange things, and I am afraid that you will be surprised when you say it." ”

Zhou Ding nodded, relieved, and instructed: "My wife's body is recovering well, but it's ...... here" He pointed to his head and continued: "It may still take some time, but it's not as serious as before, so as long as we don't provoke her, it won't be fine." ”

The three of them nodded and walked into the house with Zhou Ding. As soon as they entered the door, the three people were dumbfounded, and in the hall facing the door, there was a large incense burner, and there were still a few wisps of white smoke on the incense burner, and the smell of incense choked the three people who had just come in and almost fainted.

Looking up, on the wall directly above the incense burner, there was a one-meter-square portrait, and the figure in the portrait was the well-known Zhong Kui, with a pair of fierce eyes staring at the three people.

"What's going on?" Li Bai asked Lei Baoquan in a low voice, "Do they worship this?" ”

Lei Baoquan also felt strange and replied: "When I came last time, I didn't have these things. ”

The three of them followed Zhou Ding to the back room, Zhou Ding glanced at the closed door next to him, and said, "She just fell asleep." Let's not wake her up. ”

Although they nodded in agreement, the three of them couldn't help but be startled by the yellow paper talisman posted on the door.

The four of them came to the small room next to the bedroom, where a row of old sofas and two bamboo and rattan chairs were arranged, with a low table in the middle. However, what makes people panic is that there are also a few yellow paper symbols pasted on the surrounding walls. Zhou Ding invited the three of them to sit down, picked up the kettle and poured hot water into the teapot.

"Dude. You guys are ......," Lei Baoquan said, pointing to the rune paper on the wall.

Zhou Ding put on the lid of the pot, looked around, smiled helplessly, and said: "I'm not afraid of your jokes when I say it, we, who are old, still believe in this, although for you, this is feudal superstition." ”

"Then why do this?" Lei Baoquan asked again.

Zhou Dingchang sighed: "It's not because of my old wife, when I was in the hospital two days ago, I kept saying that there were ghosts haunting her." I have to go home from the hospital. As a result, when I came back, I said that there was a little ghost standing at the gate guarding her from entering, and asked me to ask a master to break it. I can't help it, I can't let her sleep on the street, can I? So I invited a master to come over and set up two dishes, and my wife stopped. ”

"So, it still has some effect?" Li Bai nodded and said.

"Whether it has an effect or not, it's not up to the master to have the final say. I'm an old man, and I can't see any ghosts. It's not going to do anything for me. Zhou Ding shook his head.

"Brother, don't worry, it doesn't matter if it's useful or not, the important thing is that my sister-in-law doesn't make trouble, she can calm down and recuperate, and the most important thing is that her body recovers." Lei Baoquan comforted.

Zhou nodded fixedly. He got up again and poured water one by one, and said, "Take a sip to warm up, I was hesitant to let you in just now, because I was afraid that when you saw this in the house, you would think that I had a mental problem." ”

"How is that possible? If so. The three of us have long been at the top of the mental illness. Li Bai said with a smile.

"Huh?" Zhou Ding didn't understand.

Lei Baoquan glanced at Li Bai and said to Zhou Ding: "It's okay, brother, this kid has a bad brain since he was a child, don't listen to his nonsense." By the way, we're here for two things, one is to see you, and the other is to have something particularly important to ask you for. ”

"Follow me for confirmation?" Zhou Ding was stunned, "I don't know anything." ”

"I was in your bedroom...... It's what I saw by accident when I saved your wife last time. Lei Baoquan hurriedly explained, "There is a photo on the bedroom wall, a man in a military uniform, who is that person?" ”

"Oh, that's my father." Zhou Ding replied with a smile.

"Dare I ask what your father's name is?" Lei Baoquan asked, and Li Bai and Jin Guo also came up, very worried.

Zhou Ding looked at the three pairs of eyes staring at him, wondering why he asked his father's name, but he still replied: "My father's single name is a Kun character, Zhou Kun." ”

"Uh...... Zhou Kun. Lei Baoquan nodded, and Li Bai and Jin Guo next to him also sat back in disappointment.

"What's wrong? Can I help you? Zhou Ding couldn't help but ask.

"No, no, I just saw that the person in the photo was quite handsome, so I asked casually." Lei Baoquan smiled in agreement, looked back at the other two, and motioned for their expressions not to be so obvious.

Li Bai sat on the side, thinking that there was a lot of hope, but he didn't expect another empty expectation, he took out his mobile phone and looked at the time in frustration, and suddenly he thought of something, and hurriedly looked up and asked: "Uncle, you just said that the person in the photo is your father?!" ”

"That's right." Zhou Ding saw that Li Bai reacted so much, and replied a little overwhelmed.

"Isn't your father the ......" Li Bai remembered the ghost old man he had seen in the barbershop before, and asked, "I mean, hasn't your father always been a shaver?" ”

"That's right." Zhou Ding replied.

When Lei Baoquan and Jin Guo heard this, they also began to feel strange, and Li Bai then asked, "Then when did he go to become a soldier?" ”

"He wasn't a soldier." Zhou Ding shook his head.

"That photo ......" Lei Baoquan also wondered when he heard it.

Zhou Ding was stunned for a moment, then understood what they meant, and said with a smile: "You said the clothes in the photo?" It was left behind by my grandfather, who was an officer when he was younger, and our family was an officer. It's a pity that my father was very reluctant to be a soldier because his grandfather went out to lead the army when he was a child, and the family rarely reunited, so he didn't inherit it, and even if I wanted to be a soldier later, he was not allowed. ”

"But I remember your father said that four generations of your family have been shavers?" Li Bai asked.

"My father said?" Zhou Ding was taken aback.

"Uh... No, I forgot who I listened to. Li Bai hurriedly changed his words. (To be continued.) )
