Lao Wu came back from taking the medicine, and although he had some doubts when he heard that the old ghost was going to hide me tonight, he didn't ask in detail.

Although I barely survived the first night, I also realized that the evil was so powerful that this place could not be stayed, and I thought that it would be better to hide me, it is better to hide it in a place where I am alone!

Sure enough, just as I thought, before I could propose it, the old ghost said:

"It's up to you tonight, send you farther away, neither of us can follow."

Lao Wu was a little worried, and asked after a while:

"Just let him go on his own? So why are we two staying? ”

The old ghost replied in a low voice while rubbing medicine on the injured scalper:

"The two of us have to stay here and make a false appearance, and lure the evil here."

As soon as the old ghost's voice fell, I was the first to disagree.

"This won't work, it's too dangerous to bring you here!"

"You don't have to worry about the two of us, let's make sure you survive."

The old ghost gave the scalper medicine, patted the cow's back lightly with his hand, and said in a low voice:

"Huahua, then I'll leave it to you tonight!" With that, he picked up the medicine box and turned around and went out.

................................

Under the instructions of the old ghost, Lao Wu and I buried the bull under the apricot tree in the yard, and the cow named Huahua has been standing there watching the bull bury, the wailing of "moo" is endless, and the tears of the mournful cow have wet the dry soil on the ground.

After burying the ox, the old ghost began to prepare intensively for tonight's escape, he asked Lao Wu to go to the village to fold the wicker, planning to tie a villain with willow sticks, and I stayed in the yard to help him clean up the wicker branches.

The old ghost's dark skin could still be seen in his iron-green face, and after cleaning the last of the wicker, I said:

"Uncle Ghost, I feel that the evil that came last night is not the same as before."

The old ghost lowered his head and asked busily in his hands:

"What's different?"

"The few times it appeared before, it was all for what I had in my hand, it was nothing more than a deception and a scare, but last night was different, it seemed to have come to take my life."

The old ghost sneered and replied:

"You're thinking too much, how can it be different, it's just that I wanted to kill you before, but I didn't kill you, right?"

I shook my head in confusion.

"No, there was no killing intent in the previous few appearances, it was really different from last night."

"Don't think about it so much, you must save your life in the remaining two days."

"Uncle Ghost, I don't know if it's convenient for you to say, how do you know that I am going to die in three days, and there will be evil spirits to ask for my life?

The old ghost bent a wicker in his hand and soaked it in water and said:

"You have an obvious yin aura on your face, and the jargon is called "ghost impression", which is a great omen, and you will usually be found in three days. ”

Although I don't understand the word ghost impression, I guess it's the evil that marked me.

I gasped and remembered what I had happened in the cave in Hutao Village, and the huge snake shadow on the cave wall!

After the old ghost finished tying the wicker man, he took the scissors and cut a lock of hair on my head, stuffed it into the wicker man, turned his head and said:

"Take off your clothes for me, too."

I didn't say a word, and quickly took off my clothes and handed them to the old ghost.

The old ghost took my clothes and draped them over the wicker man, muttered something I didn't understand, and sprinkled some water on it.

After all this was prepared, the old ghost stared at the wicker man for a long time, and sighed softly:

"I don't know how long this stand-in can last, as soon as it gets dark at seven o'clock tonight, you will follow Huahua and hurry up!"

I turned my head to look at the courtyard when I heard this, and for a whole day, this cow had been lying beside the bull's grave and refused to leave, whether it would work out or not, whether I could survive tonight, the old ghost and the ox had great kindness to me!

Don't catch ghosts, don't come out, don't show the way, the old ghost broke these three rules for me.

I was grateful, but also a little puzzled, and asked:

"Uncle ghost, why are you helping me?"

The old ghost sighed, and did not beat around the bush:

"Mr. He's entrustment, I have to help with this."

"Mr. He's entrustment?"

I was stunned when I heard this, Mr. He has been dead for so long.

"When did Mr. He ask for it?"

"It was the person who came with you who told me, you don't care about these things for now, and everything will be said until you have a life to live."

I recalled that at the dinner table, the old ghost refused to help because of the rules, but since Lao Wu said two words in his ear, the old ghost changed his mind, thinking that what Lao Wu said at that time must have something to do with Mr. He.

Now at this critical juncture, I will suppress these doubts, and only hope that I can get through this and tomorrow nights smoothly!

When it was getting dark, the old ghost led me into the courtyard, put a noose around the neck of the ox, and handed me the other end of the rope, and said:

"You hold on to this rope, follow Huahua, don't talk, don't look back, where it takes you, you just have to follow, you know?"

I nodded and asked worriedly:

"Then what about you and Lao Wu, the evil is brought here, will you two be in danger?"

"It's okay, you can rest assured that the two of us are evil, but the evil is very cunning, and I don't know how long this method can hold it back, so let's get on the road."

After the old ghost finished speaking, he leaned his head into the scalper's ear and whispered a few words, I didn't hear what he said, but guessed that he should have told the scalper where to take me.

After instructing me and the ox, the old ghost took out a roll of dry tobacco and lit it, pointed to the door and whispered:

"Let's go, you will pass by the ancestral grave circle on the way, remember what I told you, don't look back."

Old Wu also beckoned to me, I dragged the rope, led the way by the ox, and followed it slowly out of the gate.

At seven or eight o'clock, some people in the village were sitting in the shade at the door of their houses after eating, and a man in his forties might see me face to face, and he was dragging a ox rope in his hand, and mistakenly thought that I was stealing cattle, so he asked me:

"Who are you, why are you leading Wang Qianyi's cow?"

Naturally, I didn't reply, I didn't turn my head to look at him, and followed the scalper step by step.

When this man saw that he was being ignored by me, his temper came up, and he stood up and pointed at me and shouted:

"Stop! Talking to you, where the fuck did you come from? Is it stealing someone's cow? ”

I still didn't stop, the old scalper had already led me far away, and seeing that I still ignored him, the man came over and stretched out his hand to stop me, and even grabbed my collar and scolded viciously:

"You're a cow stealer!! Are you mute? ”

I don't want to have any argument with him, not to mention that the old ghost told me not to talk and not to turn back, I would never dare to make an exception, I glared at him fiercely, and scolded in my heart: Lack of heart, have you ever seen a cow stealer walk so slowly?

It is estimated that this man also saw that I was not a thief, but he felt that I ignored him and made him lose face, I just broke free from his hand, he was even more energetic, and turned his head and shouted to the people on both sides of the village road:

"There's a thief, there's a cattle thief, everyone hurry up and break his legs!"

This man is full of food and support, shouting very hard, my heart is tight, this is troublesome, if a group of fellow villagers really come out and treat me as a cattle thief, I can't get out of the village today, the sky will be dark soon, and the big trouble will easily follow me!

When I was in a hurry, I heard "Bang! With a bang, this man suddenly flew out more than three meters away!!

I was shocked to see that it was the old scalper who led the way and kicked him with his hind hooves, and the man couldn't shout half a sentence anymore, squatting in the corner of the wall and holding his stomach with a red face.

After the old scalper kicked away the troubles that were in the way, he turned his head and immediately regained his composure just now.

The village road is very long, I followed the scalper one after another and walked for more than ten minutes before leaving the village, the scalper knows the direction very well, and can always choose the route without the slightest hesitation at many forked intersections.

It was getting dark, and it was difficult to walk on the village road, and I was worried about the old ghost and the old Wu while stumbling forward, and the big trouble was about to go, and I didn't know what would happen over there, and I didn't know how long the wicker man could deceive it.

After walking for half an hour, the old ox no longer travels along the road, but changes the route to take me to the mountain, here the wild grass is tall and thorny branches are numerous, I am fortunate to suffer it, the broad body of the ox has added a lot of wounds cut by weeds and branches, even so, the old ox did not hesitate at all, there is no painful humming, it is still determined to lead the way in front, no detour, no retreat, very moved me!

After following the old scalper up the hillside, we gradually entered a gloomy and dense cemetery, which should be the ancestral grave circle that the old ghost said, as if all the dead people were buried here in the nearby ten miles and eight villages, and there were countless graves of all sizes so large and small that they could not be seen at a glance!

However, casually glancing left and right, I was almost scared to pee my pants, and I saw that there were people sitting on the tombstones in front of these grave circles on both sides of me!!

They were old and young, male and female, staring at me with straight eyes, as if they were going to pounce on me at any moment.

I don't know if the old scalper saw them, still kept moving at a uniform speed, my heart was beating wildly, I simply closed my eyes and stopped looking, suddenly, I felt that there seemed to be a force behind me pulling the corners of my clothes!

Can't look back!!

The old ghost's instructions sounded in my ears, and I had the heart to slap my hand back, but I was afraid to touch something terrible!

The force behind me grabbed the corner of my clothes was getting stronger and stronger, I pulled the rope and pulled it back, and the old scalper seemed to sense that I was wrong, raised his head and "mooed" twice.

Strange to say, the old scalper's scream, the power behind me disappeared in an instant!

I couldn't see the road ahead, and I didn't know how long it would take to get out of this ancestral grave circle, but I was just relieved when I heard someone shouting behind me:

"Li Yao, why are you going?"

My heart was shocked, it was Lao Liu's voice!!
