Section 151, the Ghost Festival of Moon Village [I]
"Village chief, I think you will not be mistaken, in fact, not all ghosts can accept worship, some ghosts are aliens who belong to the ghosts, they often suffer from human worship, they will become more and more fierce, and they will also complain, harm people or something, they often do, so your kneeling will also make that kind of ghost hate you more and more.

"Oh, there are still those ghosts! This...... Alas! Could it be that the people in our village who die or disappear on Halloween every year are because of that kind of ghosts? If that's the case, then wouldn't we all be accomplices? ”
The village chief was in a cold sweat, he didn't expect that there would be that kind of ghost, Liu Shoucai saw that his words frightened the village chief, and hurriedly comforted him.
"Village Chief, don't be too nervous, maybe that kind of ghost didn't appear in your village, we'll help you check it out at night, don't worry!"
"Yes, village chief, with us here, you don't have to worry about anything."
Seeing Liu Shoucai and Guigu Song's repeated assurances, the village chief had a lot less worries in his heart, but he still felt a little afraid, especially when he thought of the people who died on Halloween before.
"Then it's up to you tonight, Master."
The village chief bowed to Liu Shoucai and them as he spoke, and the villagers around the village chief also bowed to Liu Shoucai and thanked them.
The sacrificial activities in the evening officially began, Liu Shoucai and Guigu Song stood in the southeast and northwest directions of the crowd respectively, and the altar was surrounded by a few bold young men called by the village chief, as long as there was a disturbance, Liu Shoucai and they would come forward to solve that thing.
As time passed, watching the moon in the sky gradually rise, Liu Shoucai felt that the surroundings had become much colder, and looked at the time, it was time for the ghost door to open, Guigu Song took out a talisman and quietly put it in the palm of his hand, as long as there were ghosts who dared to make trouble, he could completely slap it away with one palm.
"Brother Guigu, do you feel something is not right?"
After a long time, Liu Shoucai didn't feel that a ghost came to make trouble, although the air around him became very cold, but he didn't see a ghost appear, so he couldn't help but communicate with Guigu Song with his heart.
"Yes! I also feel that something is not quite right, it stands to reason that when the ghost door is wide open, those ghosts will definitely run around, and we have a sacrifice here now, those ghosts should be full, why there are no ghosts, it's too unusual. ”
"Do you think there are no ghosts at all, it's completely artificial?"
"There is this possibility, there are other possibilities, you see, the air around is very cold, and the surrounding area is also full of yin qi, but there are no ghosts, isn't it strange?"
Guigu Song's doubts are also Liu Shoucai's doubts, if he knew what was going on, where would he find Guigu Song to solve his doubts.
"Brother Guigu, I'm also confused because of this, do you think we should continue to let the village chief go on like this? There are a lot of dangers in this kind of ritual, and if it continues, I really don't know what will happen, and I have a feeling that if something happens, we will definitely not be able to help them. ”
"But now that the sacrifice is halfway through, do you think those people will end halfway? I don't believe the villagers will listen to us. ”
"Alas! And so you said, now we can only pray that everything is safe. ”
Liu Shoucai sighed, he also knew that those people couldn't all listen to him, if he angered those villagers, his kindness would also turn into a bad thing.
When the village chief took a bowl of chicken blood and poured it into the coffin, suddenly a large amount of blood flowed out of the coffin, and then there was a collision sound inside the coffin, which frightened the village chief and rolled down directly from the sacrificial platform.
"Fake the corpse, run......"
The crowd didn't know who shouted, and the villagers around were so frightened that they all scattered and fled, and the village chief had been lying on the ground and moaning because he had sprained his foot, and he couldn't leave.
"Village chief, don't worry, let's take a look first, Badou, you help the village chief to sit over there."
Liu Shoucai saw that the village chief had injured his foot, so he asked Badou to help the village chief to sit on the chair on the side, and Badou didn't care how the village chief shirked it, he directly helped him and put it on the chair, and then approached the altar to study the coffin.
"Brother Liu, did you say that the corpse in this coffin is really a fraudulent corpse?"
"Wouldn't you open it and see it? If it's really a corpse, it's really cheap Xiaobai, it hasn't eaten zombies for a long time, and this time it's a tooth sacrifice. ”
Liu Shoucai pushed open the coffin board while laughing, but it turned out that there was only a big black cat in the coffin, and the eyes of the big black cat were staring at Liu Shoucai and them at this time, which was very sad.
"Damn, this is too evil, village chief, how can you put a big black cat in the coffin? And it's Halloween, which is too undeserved. ”
Liu Shoucai was also anxious, he didn't expect the village chief to do this, and the village chief is now speechless, because he doesn't know what is going on in this matter, he remembers that the coffin was really an ordinary corpse.
"O Master! You can't wronged me, the coffin was really a human corpse, and I asked the aisle chief to do it, but now it's suddenly a cat's corpse, and I don't know why. ”
Seeing that the village chief didn't look like he was telling a lie, Liu Shoucai also felt strange in his heart, and it seemed that the problem should be with those villagers.
"It seems that someone must have done this on purpose, but why did that person cause the curse of the evil spirit?"
"Master, what do you mean by that? What demonic curse? ”
The village chief didn't understand what Liu Shoucai's words meant, so he also endured his foot pain and slowly approached and walked over, seeing the village chief coming over with pain, Liu Shoucai walked over and supported him with his face.
"That's right, during Halloween, if your sacrifice is the corpse of a black cat, then it will be cursed by evil ghosts, because the corpse of a black cat is sacrificed on Halloween, also known as the sacrifice of evil ghosts, those evil ghosts have died miserably, and now they are used as sacrificial items by you, how can they not have resentment in their hearts, I guess someone must have done this on purpose, in order to make you cursed, and then all of them will be killed by evil spirits."
"Who is so cruel, why do you do this to us, the people in our village are all kind, no one has ever done evil! Alas! ”
The village chief stomped his feet as he spoke, he felt very bored, Liu Shoucai was also depressed at this time, if he caught that messy guy, he would definitely divide that guy's body, because he and Guigu Song opened the coffin, so he and Guigu Song were also cursed.
"Village chief, don't be anxious, now that my brother Guigu has also been cursed, we will definitely help everyone unravel this curse, otherwise everyone will suffer."
"Master, I'm really causing you trouble this time."
The village chief looked embarrassed, he didn't expect that this incident would even affect Guigu Song and them, Liu Shoucai saw the village chief apologize, and he didn't say anything.
"Alright, let's go back for now! Little white second, the two of you should quickly find a place to bury the contents of the coffin! Remember, be sure to go over it a few times. ”
"Got it, you go to the village chief's house first, and I'll look for you when we're done."
The reason why Liu Shoucai handed over this matter to Xiaobai and the second child was because Xiaobai and the second child were not human beings, and they would not be subject to this curse, and they also had a special identity, so they naturally didn't have to worry about anything, so they would be relieved to hand it over to them.
After returning home with the village chief, the village chief originally wanted to call the villagers over, but was stopped by Liu Shoucai, because Liu Shoucai didn't want to startle the snake.
"Village chief, don't be busy calling people first, we can't startle the snake, let's find out the harmful spirit first."
"What the master is talking about, what is the master going to do?"
Liu Shoucai sneered, for that kind of person, he has many methods, of course, he will not mess around, let alone wronged a good person.
"Village chief, I naturally have my own way, these days, village chief, you have to be calm, don't say what you saw tonight, you just pretend that you came home because you were scared, you don't know what is inside the coffin, I can guarantee that in three days, that person will show his feet."
"Is this really the case? If that person can't breathe, what are we going to do? ”
"Don't worry, village chief, I said he will come out, he will definitely come out, these days, you don't have to say anything to your family, lest you accidentally be passed out, and that person will definitely not surface by himself at that time, what we have to do now is to wait patiently in the dark for the fish to take the bait."
"Okay, then I'll listen to you, master."
The village chief settled down and tried to calm himself down, he also knew the seriousness of this matter, so he naturally didn't dare to say anything, even if it was his wife, he wouldn't say a word.
After Xiaobai and the second child buried the body of the black cat, they recited the Chaodu Sutra a few times, and then returned to the village chief's house and told everything again.
The next day, the villagers who participated in the sacrificial activities all came, and they insisted on asking the village chief to say one, two, three, and the village chief told the villagers according to what Liu Shoucai said before, saying that he didn't know what happened later, and the village chief among those villagers didn't seem to be telling lies, and they also hurt their feet, so they didn't stay any longer, and left one by one.
"Master, how's it going? Did you just see someone in the crowd that something was wrong? ”
"Well, there is a person who doesn't look right, and he keeps checking your injuries, and he has a resentment in him, I think this matter should have something to do with him."
"Then we'll arrest him now! lest they harm anyone again. ”
"Don't worry, we have to find evidence, otherwise, how to debunk his conspiracy, and besides, we can't startle the snake now, lest he have anything else to do, let's stabilize him first."
"Then there are you Master Lao, I really want to thank you a lot this time."
"Where, we are also thinking about our own safety, after all, we are all grasshoppers on a rope now, and no one can escape."
As soon as he thought that he had suffered a curse in vain, Liu Shoucai felt very uncomfortable in his heart, and Guigu Song had a gloomy face, he hated the person who caused him to suffer a curse, if he caught that person, he would definitely make that person's life worse than death.
"Village chief, you rest first, and a few of us go out to find some clues first."
"Okay, trouble Master."
The village chief looked embarrassed, he also knew that he was injured at the wrong time, but there was nothing he could do, so he could only rely on Liu Shoucai and them to find clues.
As soon as Liu Shoucai and the others came out of the courtyard of the village, they all showed angry looks on their faces, especially Badou and Xiaobai, the two of them were originally uncomfortable.
"Humph! Liu Shoucai, do you really plan to be a turtle with a shrunken head? Why didn't you just say it? ”
"Xiaobai, what are you anxious about, we still have a lot of things to do now, besides, sooner or later, he will show his feet, and we really can't startle the snake at the moment."
"What Brother Liu said is, Xiaobai, you should calm your mood, if you are like you, we don't have to go to that person."
"You ...... Hum! What more clues? Wouldn't we just use mnemonics? No matter how bad it is, we can use magic to make him show himself, why bother so much, I really don't know what you guys think, anyway, I'm just uncomfortable. ”
Xiaobai's face was bored, and Liu Shoucai was actually very depressed in his heart, but he also knew that magic was not omnipotent, and he couldn't rely on magic for everything, he still had to rely on his brain to be a good person, so as not to use magic at every turn, and if his IQ degraded, what should he do.
"Xiaobai, in this world, ordinary people are standing in the largest proportion, and we, the people with extraordinary abilities, are a minority after all, and we can't rely on magic to solve everything, so what do we want our brains to do? If you don't use your brain in anything, sooner or later your IQ will degenerate to zero. ”
"Yes, Xiaobai, you really have to change your temper, you are a divine beast, not a human being, naturally you can't understand how powerful our human IQ is, what if you can't use magic one day? You can't give up on yourself, you still have to use your brains more. ”
Liu Shoucai and Guigu Song talked about Xiaobai one by one, and the angry Xiaobai almost went crazy, seeing that the two of them were endless, Xiaobai flapped his wings directly and flew away, no matter what Liu Shoucai and Guigu Song wanted to do.
"Alas! This Xiaobai is really true, and I don't know when I will figure it out. ”
"Alright, don't blame it, let's go to the village to investigate first, we have to solve this matter as soon as possible, otherwise when the curse opens, we will all be finished."
Guigu Song was still very concerned about the curse, so he didn't want to continue to be verbose, so he directly acted separately with Liu Shoucai and them, and after Liu Shoucai and them left separately, a sneaky person in the back ran towards the village chief's house.
"How's it going? What are they all doing now? ”‘
"Village Chief, they all went to investigate the villagers, because they all went their separate ways, so I came back to tell the village chief."
"Okay, I know, you continue to follow them, if they really investigate something, you must remember, you must kill them in this place, you can't let them out of the village, our plan can't be ruined."
"Yes, village chief."
After that eyeliner left, the village chief's face showed a murderous look, if Liu Shoucai and the others were here at this time, they would definitely be shocked.
"Auntie, I want to ask you, why does one person die in the village every year? Did any of the dead people have any anomalies in the early stage? ”
"I don't know this very well, the village chief knows much better than us, you can ask the village chief!"
The old lady's eyes are not very good, but she can still distinguish who Liu Shoucai is, last night, Liu Shoucai went to the sacrifice in the name of the master, so the whole village knows him.
"Oh! Auntie, do you feel anything strange? For example, someone behaves strangely about this dead man. ”
"No! Everyone was very panicked, but fortunately there were no dead people last night, it was really a loss to you, master, although there were very scary things in the coffin, but fortunately no one died. ”
The old lady started talking nonsense again, Liu Shoucai saw this, and knew that he couldn't ask anything, so he said goodbye to her and left, and Guigu Song and Badou didn't investigate any useful news from the villagers, so they all returned to the same place early.
"Alas! Those villagers can't investigate anything at all, I said Brother Liu, could it be that we are thinking too much? ”
"How is it possible, I always feel that those villagers seem to be hiding something, I don't think their looks are quite right, and when they encounter problems, they tell me to go to the village chief, damn it, these people simply don't get in the oil and salt!"
"Do you think they're in league with the village chief?"
"Who knows, it's just that I don't understand why they want to protect the village chief, but I always feel that there is another insider."
"Why don't you ask Xiaobai to ask those pigs, dogs, sheep and chickens or something, after all, animals don't lie, it's much easier to ask than people."
"Xiaobai doesn't know where to go, what else to ask, second, you go and ask those plants to see what they say."
"Yes, master."
Liu Shoucai suddenly remembered the identity of the second child, so he ordered the second child to ask about the plants on the side of the road, because there are plants everywhere in the village, so the second child can also inquire about those things.
After a while, the second child walked back with a cold face, looking at the second child's face, Liu Shoucai also knew that it must not be good news, otherwise, he would not be like this.
"How's it going, dick? What's the news? ”
