In June, although the summer in the north is not as hot as in the south, the hot wind in the air can still make people sweat.

Aunt Lu has lived in our house since she came back from visiting relatives in Hebei, and I lived in with her, I don't know why I can't do without her, my father said, Fu Lu has no mother since he was a child, and he lacks love.

The fire kang in the West House collapsed and had not been built yet, so I squeezed together with my second sister and the mother and son of the Lu family on a kang bunk, and my father slept on the rocking chair in the study.

Recently, the poultry in the village has always been lost for no reason, at first the village chief Liu Sangui thought that he had recruited a weasel, and he searched for several days without finding any trace, but the number of chickens and ducks was gradually decreasing day by day.

Liu Sangui also visited the homes of several idle lazy people in the village, because several families affected by the disaster reported that suspicious footprints were found next to the chicken coop duck rack, so Sanbo guessed that it might be man-made.

My family has six chickens, four males and two females, recently the village has lost too many chickens and ducks, the second sister every day before going to bed to catch the chickens into the house, with a rope tied in the kitchen.

It was about two or three o'clock in the morning, and everyone was asleep, and I seemed to hear the laughter of the female ghost again, and the voice was very close, as if it was in the house.

I'm a little scared, Master said before that this woman has too much resentment, and if she is buried in the wrong place, I'm afraid she will turn into a zombie.

I was afraid, the more I was afraid, the more I wanted to pee, and I didn't dare to get up, so I had to hide under the covers. It was very hot in the quilt, and I felt that the sweat on the top of my head was about to flow into my eyes over my eyebrows, and I really didn't dare to lift the quilt, I was afraid that I would see the female ghost as soon as I showed my head.

I felt that the second sister next to me was also trembling, so I stretched my hand along the edge of the quilt into the second sister's quilt. The second sister was really awake, and she immediately held my hand, and her palms were sweaty like mine.

I heard the chickens fluttering, and Dad coughed and turned on the light.

I asked my dad where to go, and my dad said to go to the toilet, and I said I would go too, and the second sister also got dressed and said she would go along.

Before I could get off the ground, Aunt Lu and Lu Youcai also sat up, and they were both awake.

Aunt Lu whispered, you three let me lie down and sleep honestly.

I said I really want to pee, and Dad said, you can find a vial in the house and catch it.

At this time, the sound of chickens fluttering in the kitchen was heard again, and I couldn't help but run over.

Pushing open the kitchen door, I walked softly inside, empty in the mess.

I lay down and wanted to sleep but I felt that I couldn't sleep, and my father's snoring from the study was very noisy.

After a while, the voice came again, sharp and hairy.

I somehow got the courage to get off the kang and put on my shoes, went to the drawer, took a few talismans that Master had given me when he left, and sneaked into the kitchen.

The moonlight shone through the window and the kitchen was white, and I regretted it as soon as I stepped in, but it was too late, and as soon as I entered the door, I was caught by the hanged man.

I was suffocated by her pinching, my face was already red, tears were flashing in my eyes, and my feet were kicking back and forth. During the struggle, she took out the talisman drawn by the master from her pocket and held it in her hand, at that moment, the female ghost seemed to really have some scruples, and her hand was not so hard.

I was at a loss to dangle the spirit rune, and the female ghost seemed to see my uselessness, and the strength in her hand became more and more sufficient.

I looked up at the female ghost in a panic, I don't know if she was looking at me, because she was all white, and I was staring at her with a dying star.

It occurred to me that Master had taught me the method at that time, so I raised the sword finger in my left hand and held it flat on my chest, and held the talisman in my right hand, and opened my mouth to recite the mantra, and there was a burning sensation on my back, and every time I knotted my sword finger, I did this.

The female ghost should still exert her strength, her hands were not idle at all, I couldn't help but flutter the two little hands to hit the female ghost, but when I touched the female ghost, she didn't move, and even let out a more arrogant laugh.

I subconsciously threw the talisman in my hand to the female ghost, and at the same time read in my mouth: "Taishang Laojun is as anxious as the law!"

A miracle happened, the female ghost's arm touched the talisman, and suddenly the fire flashed, and the other hand let go of me and jumped to the side. I fell to the ground, didn't care about coughing, got up and tried to run out quickly, but I didn't even have the strength to call for help, so I could only rub my neck and cough vigorously.

The female ghost had recovered by this time, screaming at us and preparing to jump, I sat on the ground and breathed heavily, my ass was wet, and I was scared to pee my pants.

Before the female ghost could rush over, a golden light rushed in front of me from behind me, and it was still the same flat-headed boy, he was still dressed like that, with yellow shorts and a white tank top, and a pair of red sandals on his feet.

I saw him swaying and walking in front of the female ghost, and said in a contemptuous tone: "You are looking for death, right, your eight-and-a-half-year-old grandfather and I take care of everything every day, don't you just cultivate into a stiff hair, and you dare to bully people, right?"

When he saw that I was well, he turned to the trembling hanged man and said, "I will spare you for the time being, but I will turn you into the flesh, and I will not hurt your soul, and let you return to your original appearance, and everything is determined by heaven, and if you do evil again in the future, I will destroy you with my own hands." After saying that, he saw that the hanged ghost bowed to him three times, he stretched out his hand and pointed, and the ghost suddenly turned into a star, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.

It took less than two minutes for the flat-headed boy to eliminate the female ghost, turned his head to look at me with tears on his face, bared his teeth and smiled, scolded "no fun", and then turned into golden light and approached me......

The night was fine, they were still sleeping when I woke up, I couldn't lie down, I rolled over and sat up, only to feel a hot pain in my back.

After that day, the chickens in the village were never lost again.

As the days passed, Dad said that the matter over there in Jiyang was solved, but he didn't want to go back yet, and it was enough to have an eldest sister over there.

I know that my dad is tired, he likes this idyllic country life, and he doesn't want to get involved in the business world anymore.

Aunt Lu opened a small shop in the village to pass the time, and my father also studied and fished all day long, leisurely.

Lu Youcai and his second sister are old and know that they have studied, and they have no time to take care of me except for doing homework every day.

The friends in the neighborhood never took me to play, and they seemed to know that I didn't have a mother, so every time they saw me, they would shout at me, "The little cub without a mother is out again!"

At first, I would chase after me and fight, but then they were scared, and every time they scolded me, it was followed by stones.

They called me Little Cub for several years, and I gradually became introverted and silent.

In the blink of an eye, I have reached the age when I should go to school, after all, I am eight years old, and it will be too late if I don't study.

On the first day of school, my father told me a thousand times: "Son, your name is Ye Fulu, you have to stand up and answer when the teacher calls the name." ”

I nodded, but was silent.

I don't like to talk anymore, I'm afraid that some friends near my home will be assigned to the same class as me, and I'm afraid of being scolded as a "little cub".

"Students, today is your first day on campus, I am the homeroom teacher of your first grade class, and I am very happy to lead you to study hard in your first school year. Whoever I call by name, he will stand up, understand?" the homeroom teacher spoke Mandarin with a strong Northeast accent.

"Understood!" we shouted in unison.

As the roll call began, I watched as the classmates in front of me stood up one by one, wondering when they would be able to call me.

?“ Ye Fulu", "Ye Fulu", "Didn't Ye Fulu come today?"

?“ Coming, teacher, I'm coming. Suddenly I realized that I stood up with my head bowed tremblingly.

?“ Why didn't you stand up when you shouted at you?I don't know what I'm calling when I'm so big?" the teacher looked angry, as if I was doing it on purpose.

?“ Teacher, they all used to ...... They all call me a little cub. ”

?? The teacher looked at me, sighed, and motioned for me to sit down.

After I sat down, I don't know who took the lead and shouted "little cub", I subconsciously responded, and immediately burst into laughter.

The teacher had a calm face, knocking on the blackboard with a ring ruler, and everyone was quiet, but there were still one or two sneers from time to time.

This title stayed with me all the time I was in school.

Ridicule, teasing, and humiliation made me, who was originally taciturn, more introverted, accustomed to walking away quickly with my head down when I saw the crowd.

It turned out that there was more ridicule and harsh laughter on campus.

It's almost the New Year, I'm eight years old, my father won't give me a birthday, the eldest sister who came from Jiyang brought me a big cake, I haven't eaten this thing, the first time I ate it, I think this cake is more delicious than the big stuffed buns made by Aunt Lu.

On the night of my birthday, I heard my second sister secretly ask my father: "It's been almost five years, what if Liu Laodao comes to pick up my brother?"

Dad sighed, alas, I'm also worried about this, I really can't take some money and send it away!
