Grandpa said, "You can choose to be reincarnated as soon as possible. If you don't want to be reincarnated, I can think of other ways for you. ”

The frozen bones said helplessly: "Now that you are a knife warrior and I am a fish and meat, what choice do I have?" I listen to you for everything, and we will do what you say. ”

Several other frozen bones hurriedly said: "Boss Feng said to do it, we will do it." ”

Only then did Grandpa know that the frozen bones of the head were surnamed Feng. Grandpa smiled: "Boss Feng? We are very fateful, my surname is Ma, your surname is Feng, you just have two more water than me. ”

Boss Feng smiled reluctantly and said, "Mr. Ma is really powerful, the fire that has been roasted for so long is still safe and sound, and his face has not changed at all. Sure enough, I underestimated you. ”

Grandpa patted his clothes, stood up, and said, "I'm almost done." Let's find a place to spend the night. You are ghosts, and you don't feel cold when you stay in the wilderness all night. I am human, and I must have a bed at night for me to sleep peacefully, otherwise I will not have the energy tomorrow. ”

Boss Feng was stunned for a moment and said, "We have never stayed overnight in a place where there are people, can you go to bed first, and we will wait for you here?" ”

Grandpa knew that as long as he let him go, they would take the opportunity to slip away, and they would never wait here for him to come back. Grandpa said: "Just because you've never had it doesn't mean you can't, with the first time, you will slowly get used to ∵ later, otherwise I would have to take your palm and go." ”

It was more useful to tie it to his hand than to the nose of a cow. As soon as Grandpa pulled the silk, he stood up obediently.

He lowered his head and sighed, beckoned to the other frozen bones, and said, "What else are you looking at?" Let's go! Mr. Ma is right, everything has the first time, and you will get used to it later. ”

A frozen bone pulled out a hat from under his ass and put it over the fire. The fire was quickly extinguished, and the hat was not burned. The frozen ghost picked up the hat, patted the dust on it, and put it on his head.

The other frozen bones picked up the unburned firewood and put it into a bag. They brought several bags, one shriveled and the others bulging.

Grandpa thought it was a novelty, so he leaned in front of the frozen bones wearing a hat to see. Grandpa found that the hat was not woven with bamboo strips with oil paper or bamboo leaf brown silk, but a large lotus leaf sandwiched from bamboo strips.

When my father was chatting with Helian Tian, I heard him say that Japanese water ghosts often have a lotus leaf on their heads in the hot summer, and the Japanese call water ghosts kappa.

This frozen bone actually made a lotus leaf into a hat and put it on his head, I wonder if the function of this lotus leaf is the same as that used by kappa?

Daddy knew that if he asked them now, even if they knew about the kappa, they still wouldn't tell Daddy the real answer. Frozen bones are people with small bellies, and Grandpa has just caught their boss and forced them to spend the night elsewhere, they must be unhappy in their hearts, and they will not say the correct answer so easily. So Grandpa simply held back in his heart and didn't ask.

However, in terms of the meaning of use, Grandpa thinks that there should be a big difference between the lotus leaves of Kappa and the lotus leaves of frozen bones. The peachwood sword given to him by the human spirit is different from the peachwood sword made by others, although it looks like a sword. This is the same as drawing a talisman, and the functions of the talisman drawn by different people are strong and weak, and some can be used and some cannot be used. In other words, this is the same as different people writing couplets, although they write the same words, but some people write ugly and some people write beautifully, ugly naturally can't be posted, and good-looking ones can be posted.

Grandpa led them on a walk until they finally came to a small village. Daddy knocked on the door and asked if he could spend the night.

The family was very friendly, and happily let Grandpa and the frozen bones into the door, cleaned them of the kang that they didn't use often, and heated the kang.

Frozen bones don't dare to sleep on the kang, they froze to death because of the lack of temperature, they died because of the temperature, so they are afraid of things with temperature.

Grandpa saw that they didn't go to the kang, so he had to go on the kang himself, but his head was facing outward, because his hand was still tied to Boss Feng's hand.

Boss Feng sat against the kang.

After spending the night in the small village, my father was woken up the next morning by the family's eight or nine-year-old child.

The kid was fussing out the window and yelling, "Daddy! Mother! Come and see! There are so many paper dolls on our windows! ”

Daddy immediately opened his eyes and woke up like a needle prick, and saw the shadow of a paper man on the window.

When Boss Feng saw his grandfather wake up, he smiled uncomfortably: "Mr. Ma originally left a hand!" I was going to sneak away last night. My brother found a lot of paper figurines in the courtyard outside. This is for you to look out for the wind, right? It turned out that he regarded these paper figures as a means for his father to keep an eye on them.

Daddy said, "You can't untie it unless I get it open for you." Grandpa glanced at the paper figure attached to the window, and continued: "My silk is only used to test you, and you can see it now, even if you break free from the silk, you still can't escape the palm of my hand." There's a little bit of consciousness on every paper figure here, and if you're leaving, I'll know even if I'm asleep. ”

Since he thought so, his father took this opportunity to dissuade him from running away. After all, this silk can't be tied all the time, and it still has to be untied in Fushun. Grandpa couldn't follow them directly to see Zesheng.

The child's parents ran outside to look at the paper figures and exclaimed, "Who cut this paper figure?" How can it be cut so beautifully? ”

Boss Feng laughed at his father and said, "Mr. Ma, listen, they say you are a girl." Otherwise, if we stay here tonight, we'll help you drain the yang energy of their family. We can tell them not to burn the kang and come and roast the fire with us. What do you think? ”

"No need. We'll be on our way in a moment. Grandpa thought to himself, they really have a small belly, and they even care so much about other people's unintentional words.

Boss Feng frowned and said, "We are ghosts, we have to hide during the day, if we walk in the sun, we will be exposed to the sun." ”

Grandpa really didn't think of this, and with a few of them, he could only rest during the day and act at night.

The frozen bones who put out the fire last night picked up the lotus leaf hat and said to Boss Feng: "Don't worry about Boss Feng, don't we all have a hat?" We can wear hats and walk, and sometimes we had to walk during the day, isn't that what we do? "This is a straightforward guy who divulged the secret of the lotus leaf hat at once.

Daddy laughed.

Boss Feng glared angrily at the frozen bones, and said sharply: "If you don't speak, no one will treat you as a dumb ghost!" ”

Grandpa said: "It seems that I can only wear a hat and set off." ”

Boss Feng took out the lotus leaf hats stacked together in one of the bulging bags, and each frozen bone was divided into one top.

Daddy was taken aback when he led the frozen bones to the courtyard. In this courtyard, not only there are paper figures in the windows of his room, but also on the walls, on the ground, and on the trees in the courtyard. The paper man's cutting skills are obviously a notch higher than last time.

Grandpa suddenly felt that the weather was not so cold.

When the hospitable host saw that his grandfather was leaving, he resolutely refused, so he had to have breakfast together before leaving.

Grandpa was respectful and obedient, so he took the frozen bones to eat with the family. Because it was difficult to see Silky herself, and Grandpa tried to pretend to be natural, the family did not notice that Grandpa's hand and Boss Feng's hand were tied together.

Grandpa ate a few bites, and then remembered that Boss Feng was a ghost and couldn't eat. Grandpa looked sideways, and the steamed buns and flatbread in front of them did not move. They all had their eyes closed, sniffing steamed buns and flatbread with their noses, and they all seemed to enjoy themselves.

The adults of the family were eating deliciously, and they didn't notice anything unusual. The child was surprised and asked the frozen bones: "Uncle and uncle, why don't you eat it?" ”

As soon as the child finished speaking, the adult who was eating with his head buried in his head raised his head. When they saw that they hadn't eaten a single bite of the frozen bones, they asked, "Is it because it tastes wrong?" ”

Boss Feng deliberately said, "It tastes good." ”

The child tilted his head and thought about it, and asked, "You haven't eaten it, why do you say it tastes good?" ”

Boss Feng squeezed out a smiling face, pretended to be gentle and said to the child: "I don't have to eat, I'll be full when I smell it." ”

The child asked curiously, "Can you be full without eating?" ”

Boss Feng pretended to be serious and nodded.

"I've heard that only ghosts don't need to eat." The child said.

The child's father hurriedly said, "Don't be angry, my child is open-mouthed! ”

Boss Feng said to the child's father: "Tong Yan is unscrupulous, it's okay." ”

Grandpa also said: "It doesn't matter what the child says. ”

The child's parents smiled awkwardly.

But the boy said, "Are you all ghosts?" He had forgotten to eat, and his eyes were glancing at the frozen bones.

The child's parents apologized again.

Boss Feng smiled and said to the child: "Yes, we are ghosts, ghosts who have frozen to death." How do you see that? ”

Grandpa didn't expect Boss Feng to directly tell his identity, or in front of the children. However, only children ask such questions, and adults don't care about them.

Grandpa gave Boss Feng a look and told him not to go overboard. But Boss Feng pretended not to see his father's gestured eyes.

The child said, "Because I look like you." ”

Not to mention, after the child said this, when Grandpa looked at the frozen bones again, he suddenly felt that their appearance was indeed a little unusual. Their faces were pale and bloodless, and their eyes were sunken into a socket, and there were heavy dark circles around them. Grandpa was by the fire when he saw them, and the red fire shone on his face, which didn't look so obvious.

Or the sharp eyes of a child.

The child's mother knocked the child on the back of the head and said, "Don't talk nonsense, the uncles and uncles just didn't sleep well last night." Keep eating your meal. ”

Grandpa was worried that the family would really recognize the frozen bones, and when he saw the child's mother say this, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

The child's curiosity was irrepressible, he took a bite of the steamed bun and asked, "Didn't you sleep well?" ”

Boss Feng replied mysteriously, "Ghosts can't sleep well." ”

This sentence aroused the curiosity of the child again. He swallowed the steamed bun, blinked his eyes and asked, "Do ghosts also sleep?" Why don't ghosts sleep well? ”

Grandpa interjected: "Mr. Feng, if you don't have a good appetite, you just don't want to eat, children should not listen to this, don't talk nonsense." ”

Boss Feng didn't think so, and winked at the kid and said, "Uncle didn't lie to you. I'm a ghost, I can't sleep well. There are still a lot of ghosts who can't sleep well. ”
