Lin Laoshi felt sorry for his daughter-in-law, and wanted not to let Li go, but he was a wooden one, and before he could speak, the two had already finished discussing, and seeing that Lao Wang took out another set of white paper clothes from the cloth bag, Lin Laoshi couldn't help but say to Li: "You just gave birth to a baby, and your body is weak, this ...... Can it be done? ”

When Lao Wang heard him say this, he stopped his movements and looked at Li, Li's face was pale but couldn't hide his stubbornness, he took the paper clothes in Lao Wang's hand, put it on carefully, and said: "I'm also redundant, it's better to help Brother Wang, I'm afraid I won't be able to bear it if I wait like this, I'm afraid I won't be able to bear it......"

Lao Wang sighed and didn't say anything, she also knew that the Li family was weak, and she didn't want to take her there, but after thinking about it, if the Li family saw the child suffering and couldn't bear to take it out of the barrel, it would really be a waste of all his previous efforts, he didn't dare to take this risk, not to mention that it was not as terrible as he imagined, as long as the Li family was obedient, she could still do it to keep her safe and sound.

Li put on his paper clothes and asked, "Brother Wang, what are you going to do next?" ”

Lao Wang pointed to the corner of the wall where he was standing just now: "Stand there, look at the bowl of water under your feet, don't think about anything." ”

Li walked to the corner of the wall, looked down at the bowl of water, he couldn't see clearly in the dim light, he could vaguely see his own reflection, Lao Wang first took out a white ribbon from the cloth bag, tied it around Li's waist, and then took out a paper talisman from his arms, chattered in his mouth, pasted the paper talisman on the lid of Li's heavenly spirit, and then stood on the other side of the bowl of water.

As soon as the paper talisman was attached to the top of Li's head, she felt her head sink, and the bowl of water in her eyes was infinitely magnified, and layers of ripples appeared on the calm water surface little by little, spreading out in circles and circles, endlessly...... Li's eyes couldn't help but turn in circles with the ripples, and he only felt extremely dizzy, but he couldn't stop, and he slowly lost consciousness.

I don't know how long it took, it was like a dream that suddenly woke up, Li Shi opened his eyes, there was nothing in the gray sky, no light, no wind, as if everything was still, she was a little flustered, just wanted to shout, when she saw Lao Wang suddenly appear in front of him, made a silent gesture to her, and signaled to follow him.

Li just flashed a thought in his mind, and the whole person floated forward, she was startled, looked down, and saw that there was no land here, and stood softly under her feet in a gray smoke, Li was stunned, Lao Wang looked very impatient, and came over and whispered to her: "Don't speak, follow me." ”

Li nodded, followed Lao Wang towards the gray distance, walked about a hundred and ten zhang distance, and saw a circle in front of him that radiated light, and there were stacks of coins in it.

After walking for a while, Li Shi felt that this was an avenue, but there was no scene on both sides, no trees, no mountains, no people, only endless desolation and gray smoke, occasionally one or two people walked by, all of them were pale and silent, the clothes they wore were all black, very solemn, very familiar, but for a while they couldn't tell what kind of clothes they were, these people all lowered their heads, and no one who passed by Li Shi turned their heads to look at her.

Wait a minute...... Black color, solemn clothes, isn't that a shroud, Li suddenly remembered that his father was wearing such a dress when he died, could it be that the people who beat him just now were dead? This thought startled her, and she couldn't help but scream, in such a quiet place, Li's exclamation was extremely loud, and a man passing by her suddenly turned around, and Li saw that he was withered, his face was bloodless, his eyes had no emotion, and there was no trace of anger, he was cold and cold, and he stretched out a hand to pull her. Li Shi was so frightened that he trembled, and he didn't know what to do at all, seeing that the man's miserable white hand was about to touch her, Lao Wang suddenly appeared, pinched a piece of paper money in his hand and threw it forward, and whispered: "Go!" ”

The banknote turned into a streamer and floated forward, and the man was attracted by the banknote, like a hungry dog that saw bones, and no longer paid attention to Li Shi and chased after the banknote. Li Shi was shocked, knowing that he was in trouble, and he didn't know what to do, but Lao Wang sighed and whispered to her: "These are just dead ghosts, don't collide with them, remember my words, don't make a sound, don't move, just follow me." ”

Li nodded, covered his mouth, followed closely behind Lao Wang, no longer dared to look around, walked like this for about half an hour, and arrived at an intersection, this intersection is very wide, next to a huge locust tree, like the ancient locust at the head of the village, but it looks a little different, only feel that the leaves on this tree are windless and automatic, and there is an indescribable vivid nature, far more beautiful than the one at the entrance of the village.

In front of the east of the intersection, there is a faint appearance of a big city in the gray sky, the left and right sides lead to the north and south, but there is nothing in the distance, under the locust tree, Lao Wang stopped, took out a stack of dark coins from the cloth bag, and said to Li: "You are waiting here, remember not to speak, and you can't walk around, except for me, no matter who tells you not to agree, if there is a yin cha riding a rooster who asks you, just say that you are waiting for me, give them a dark coin, and don't say anything else, do you understand?" ”

When Li heard that he was going to stay here, he asked in a panic, "Brother Wang, don't you need me to follow you?" ”

Lao Wang nodded and said: "I'll go to Chenghuang to do something, the yin qi over there is too heavy, it's not good for you, I'll go back quickly, if I find or find out that the baby's soul is there, I'll come back to pick you up." ”

Li agreed, but the tremor in his voice couldn't hide it, Lao Wang sighed and said to him: "Don't be afraid, don't panic, just do what I say, it'll be fine, I have to hurry up and do something, if I wait until dawn, it will be too late." ”

After saying that, he didn't care about the Li family anymore, turned around and left, and the Li family also knew that this was not the time to be afraid, so he settled down, stood under the locust tree and waited patiently, while secretly praying that everything would go well for Lao Wang.

After waiting like this, the intersection gradually became lively, and people came and went on the road, some on foot, some by car, beating gongs and drums, colorful flags fluttering, and there were hideous evil ghosts pressing the weeping people to walk by, and sometimes they raised the whip in their hands and slammed the weeping people, swearing and swearing in their mouths.

Li stared, but remembered Lao Wang's instructions, did not say a word, did not move, secretly hoped that Lao Wang would come back soon, after a long time, Li also saw some doorways, those ghosts who were in a hurry by themselves were heading to the east, and those who were pressed by evil ghosts were running west, riding cars, and most of the drummers went to the north.

These people were dressed in different ways, some were dressed in red and colored, some were tattered, and more were black shrouds, she was looking at it strangely, and suddenly the smoke and dust rose on the right, and the people on the road seemed to be frightened, and hurriedly dodged to both sides, and Li Shi also turned his head curiously to look at the place where the smoke and dust came from.

In the midst of the smoke and dust, a small man with a square face and round eyes, three long beards, wearing a white official coat, a pointed white hat, holding a spirit flag in his hand, riding a colorful rooster to trample on it...... Flying in.

The pedestrians on the road stopped moving, bent down and bowed their heads, it was those fierce and vicious ghosts who saw the villain on the rooster, and they were also full of smiles, deliberately pleased, the man looked arrogant, and did not look at these people, and ran straight, although Li looked strange, but did not dare to provoke, and hurriedly bent down and bowed his head like other people.

Who knew that the man arrived under the locust tree, and suddenly pulled the reins, and the big rooster stopped in a daze, and the villain shrugged his nose and sniffed, and asked loudly at the Li family: "You have not reached the end of your life, why did you come here?" ”

This villain is quite official, holding a soul stick towards the Li family, the Li family was shocked, remembered the old king's instructions, hurriedly took out two pieces of paper money and handed them over, and said in a trembling voice: "Let this old man know that I am waiting for the king here [***] brother, he went to do something and asked me to wait here for him to come back." ”

When the villain saw the paper money in Li's hand, his face immediately softened, he stretched out his hand to take it, and said to her: "You are a person who knows things, and I won't pursue it, so just wait here, don't move around, otherwise the master won't be able to help you." ”

Li nodded hurriedly, and the villain snorted and rode a big rooster to stomp...... went far away, Li guessed that this must be what Lao Wang said about the bad patrol, but he wondered in his heart, this bad shelf is so big, why did he ride a big rooster instead of riding a horse?

She knew that the rooster was an auspicious thing that chased yin and led to yang. The sun rises, the rooster crows, the rooster is called the "yang essence" -- the essence of the sun, but the yin and yang of all things in this world are reversed, and the yang becomes yin at the extreme, although the rooster is not all crowing, these crowing roosters will become the mount of the yin difference at night, deterring the ghosts, and when the ghost door is closed, let these roosters come back, as the saying goes, people are humane, ghosts have ghost roads, the day is the time of people, and the night is the time of ghosts, the rooster returns to the world, and a dozen crows is to tell the living that it is dawn, and it is time for you to move.

Li couldn't figure it out and didn't think much about it, so he waited hard under the locust tree, but he didn't see Lao Wang come back, so he was inevitably a little anxious...... Sanniang ......"

The voice was ethereal but clear in her ears, this voice was so familiar, and she shouted it by her nickname, could it be that the dead old man saw herself? Lee's heart moved and he was about to turn back.
