Chapter 9: The Evil Cat (Part II)
At midnight, when everything was quiet, what would you think if someone called your name, anyway, I was terrified, and when I heard that shout, I really didn't know how to describe the scene. Although I was scared, I still had the courage, that was Wolf Seven, that was Wolf Seven, as soon as the voice sounded, Wolf Seven sat up all of a sudden, and then arched himself and looked around like a wolf.
Wolf Qi's action alarmed the family, and his mother and grandmother got up, and then turned on the light, seeing that Wolf Qi's grinning teeth were not scary. The lights in our back room came on, and my grandfather and father also got up and rushed over, and when they opened the door, they were also shocked to see Wolf Qi. At this time, I only listened to my unobtrusive father say: Dad, what did I say, this wolf cub is different from people, you look at the big night and don't sleep, I'm afraid that I want to eat people, and you still let my little evil play with him, isn't that looking for death.
Shut up! Grandpa glared at my dad fiercely, and at this time I cried out loud, hugged my grandmother next to me and said: Someone called my name, it's scary!
The family was stunned after hearing this, and at this time Wolf Seven suddenly rushed out, and the figure was quickly swallowed by the night. When Grandpa saw this strange behavior, he asked his father to quickly go door-to-door to inform all the male laborers to gather at the foot of the back mountain, and then Grandpa went back to the back room to get a satchel and put it on his back.
Seeing this, my father didn't dare to slack off getting dressed, so he told my wife to take care of the house, and then ran out as well.
In short, this night the village was like a fried pot, the male laborers were pulled to the foot of the mountain by my father, the night was very long, I don't know what happened at home, in short, early the next morning my grandfather came back with everyone, including the wolf seven, at this time the wolf seven was already dying, the body was scratched by thorns, when the grandfather put the wolf seven down, I saw the wolf seven miserable and cried again. Grandma pulled me aside, and then Zhang Decai from the village hurriedly came with a medicine box on his back, this guy is the barefoot doctor in the village, and after he came, he bandaged Wolf Qi briefly, and then said to my grandfather, this child can't die, it looks like he should be tired, and he will be fine after a few days of rest.
After Zhang Decai left, the villagers began to discuss, of course, the theme is around the back mountain and Wolf Qi, some people say that the reason why Wolf Qi appeared in Houshan last night is because there are wolves calling him, and some people say that Wolf Qi has been raised by wolves since he was a child, and he has a different ability, and he can see things that ordinary people can't see, anyway, he has everything for a while.
For a while, rumors spread, and grandpa called a few housekeepers and elderly people in the village to the back room to talk for a long time before coming out, at this time grandpa picked me up and said to me: Xiaoxiao went out with grandpa.
I don't know where my grandfather took me to, but I am very familiar with this road, and this direction should lead to the back mountain. Sure enough, after walking for a while, I walked with my grandfather into the back mountain, under the leadership of my grandfather, I saw a house not far ahead, maybe someone lives here, when I arrived at the place, I knew that this is not an ordinary house but a temple, at this time I seem to remember, this should be the temple of the immortals.
After my grandfather put me down, he shouted to the temple for me to come out. It didn't take long for an old man to come out of it, and when the old man appeared, I saw that this old guy was the old guy who saved me and Wolf Seven last night, but I didn't expect him to live here.
After the old Shi Tou walked out of it, he saw me and my grandfather for a moment, and then walked over, glanced at my grandfather and said: You have nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, come here today to say something.
My grandfather smiled and sat down cleanly and said: What else can there be, of course I begged you for that matter, you don't seem to know what happened in the village last night, after you left, we all went to sleep, but in the middle of the night someone called my grandson's name, and the wolf cub chased out, the whole village went into the mountains overnight to search for a night only to find the wolf cub, I am afraid that it will change later, and I will repeat the scene ten years ago, so it is not too late to make amends, and this is to come to you.
Old Shi Tou smiled faintly and then raised his old face full of folds, looked at me with a pair of cloudy old eyes, and said after a while: Your grandson's soul was taken away by that evil cat, if it wasn't for the wolf cub chasing him out last night, I'm afraid your grandson is long gone now, that wolf cub is related to your grandson, is the patron saint of your grandson, you have to thank people a lot.
After hearing this, the grandfather's eyes lit up and said to the old Shi Tou: Then you mean that as long as the wolf cub is there, my grandson will be fine?
I didn't say that, don't think about it, as the so-called secret has its own fixed number in the dark, and you can't hide if you want to.
Ah! What you say is equivalent to farting! It's better not to say it, I'm asking you, what should I do about this, my Bu family is such a grandson, if he has anything long and two short, then our Bu family is not going to cut off the incense. Grandpa said anxiously.
The old Shi Tou smiled and said: What are you anxious about, haven't I finished speaking, although there is the wolf cub to protect, but the symptoms are not cured, you must find the evil cat, you go down the mountain to prepare a fish, the bigger the better, and then use cinnabar to point the eyes of the fish, the fish belly is filled with dog blood, the old Shi Tou thought about it and went into the hall to grab a handful of incense ashes, and then put it in a bag and handed it to my grandfather, and then said: Smear this incense ash on the fish, and then prepare ten barrels of gasoline, these things must be prepared before the sun goes down, Put the fish on the big millstone at the east end of the village, and leave ten strong men who belong to the dragon, and I will go down at dusk, so you can go and prepare first.
After listening to this, Grandpa let out a long breath and said: I am relieved to have your help, and I am about to leave after I finish speaking, when the old Shi Tou suddenly said: You can go, this child can't go for the time being, he has lost his soul now, and he is afraid of being found by something when he goes back, so stay with me first, and I will take him down at dusk.
After listening to this, grandpa nodded and said, Xiaoxie, aren't you looking for the Dixian Temple, this is the place where you play first, grandpa will pick you up at night?
At that time, I was completely attracted by this immortal temple, and I wished that my grandfather would leave quickly, so I nodded hurriedly when he heard him say this.
Grandpa smiled at me and took out a piece of candy from his pocket and handed it to me and left, if I had gone down the mountain with my grandfather at that time, there would have been no follow-up to it, this is all fucking fate, and it can't be changed.
When I saw my grandfather gone, I looked east and west, and it was strange to see everywhere. At this time, the old Shi Tou came over to me and said: Little ghost, you play here, I will boil water, and make you something to eat at noon, after finishing speaking, the old Shi Tou walked into the backyard, and I stood at the door of the Dixian Temple, and I always felt that there was something in this temple that attracted me, so I walked in.
When I walked into the Dixian Temple, I was dumbfounded, here is not as good as I imagined, in the center of the hall there is an offering table with red paper and black pen written I don't know what it is, in front of a large incense burner, the table is placed on the left and right of the lantern, and the table is placed with fruit, I see that there is nothing fun, so I want to go out, but at this time someone shouted: Hey! Where are you from.
I turned around and saw a child on the left side of the table, who was as old as me, and said, "You are calling me."
The kid looked at me with confused eyes and nodded.
I was brought here by my grandfather, what about you. I asked rhetorically.
I'll live here! The kid said confidently.
It was only then that I noticed that the child was wearing a blue cardigan, a pair of blue pants underneath, and a pair of black sneakers. I didn't know what to say to him, so I took a piece of candy from my pocket and put it in my mouth.
The kid probably hadn't eaten candy before, but when he saw me eat it, he looked at me with some greed and said, "What are you eating?"
Sugar! You haven't eaten it, it's sweet.
Sweeter than the fruit of the tree? The little dirty old hat asked stupidly.
Of course, if you don't believe it, I took out a piece of candy and handed it to him.
The little old hat couldn't wait to swallow it, and almost ate the candy wrapper because he was in a hurry. I almost laughed as I watched from the sidelines. Well! It's really sweet, so be it, you come with me to my house, and I'll let you taste the fruit of my house, how about it.
The little old hat invited me, but I hesitated, thought about it and said: There is an old man here who won't let me go, let me wait for him here, wait for next time, how about it.
After listening to me, the little old hat's face changed slightly and said: The old man here is very fierce, so let's go to my house to play for a while, and then I will send you back.
I thought about it for a while and said, "Okay, but it's only going to be fun for a while, and I'm afraid that old man will be angry."
Don't worry, no problem, it's really not okay I asked my dad to come out and clean him up, and while I was talking, I had already walked out of the hall with this little old hat and walked to the depths of the back mountain.
