On the day of Yin Wujia Sanqi, I burned a piece of paper for the old man early, hoping that the old man's spirit in the sky would bless me through this calamity. In the midst of www.biquge.info the smoke and fire of the pen, fun and pavilion, my brother Zhang Ah Si and I buried our heads in burning paper, not saying a word, and we didn't know what to say.

After returning to the hotel, I saw Zhao Haipeng standing upright in front of the glass door of the living room in the lobby, his eyes squinted, looking at the flame burning for the old man on the street.

"What's wrong?" I asked, looking at his serious expression.

Zhao Haipeng raised his hand and glanced at his watch, then took out a box of cigarettes, tore open the package, and said to me: "You don't feel that something is wrong?"

After being reminded of this, I suddenly felt that this morning was empty and deserted, but it was a little weird, but I really didn't notice what it was that seemed weird.

At this time, my brother Zhang Ah Si suddenly realized: "I know! It's a chicken! The rooster didn't crow today!"

In my restaurant, there is only one live rooster, which Zhao Haipeng bought from the vegetable market in order to relieve my grievances, and now it is raised in the backyard and fed by my younger brother Ah Si.

Ju said that the chicken is a "red life urn" that has been born for ten years, and the chicken blood has given birth to "blood poison", which is comparable to the existence of arsenic, and its blood is the most yang thing, so the old lady who can dispel the changes of resentment in our crisis is our savior.

The chicken has no comb, but the red tail and black feathers, sharp claws and golden beak, are still mighty, I keep this "benefactor" at home, and can still chirp every morning to announce the time, although it is a little disturbing to the people, but it is a good omen.

But this morning...... The chickens didn't crow!

After more than ten days, it has become our habit to smell the chicken and open a store, and today I suddenly can't hear the chicken crow, which naturally makes me a little nervous and indiscriminate.

I immediately asked Zhao Haipeng, "Do you know what's going on?"

Zhao Haipeng put the cigarette in his mouth, shook his head and walked away. And when Zhao Haipeng turned around, the first guest to eat also walked in, I greeted him with a smile, and started the day's business again......

To my surprise, throughout the day, except for the morning when the chickens did not crow, they were surprisingly calm, the guests came to eat, ordered, the chengguan collected protection fees, and the environment bureau smiled, everything seemed so natural.

In the midday sun, I was blowing the fan, turning on the radio, and busily cashier with the front desk. In the evening, I sent away waves of guests who were full of wine and food, and after wiping the table with Ah Si Zhao Haipeng early, I was ready to close the door and "hide".

According to Haipeng, as long as everything is calm when the door closes on the 21st, the catastrophe is over.

At the moment when I closed the door curtain completely, I let out a long breath, spit out the gloom that had accumulated in the past few days out of my chest, and then patted Zhao Haipeng on the shoulder and said, "Today...... Even if it's over, right?"

Zhao Haipeng didn't seem to expect things to go so smoothly, so he was a little confused.

After a long time, he nodded and told me, "On the twenty-first day, everything in the store is peaceful, it should be ...... It's over!"

Zhao Shuihe confirmed again: "That's right, according to the old rules in the Five Organs Temple, if you "scatter evil and block grievances" for twenty-one days, until the sun sets and closes the store, there is no ghost in the store, you can burn high incense." ”

The repeated confirmation of the two "masters" of the Five Organs Temple made my heart feel happy all of a sudden, and for the first time in many days, I leaked a knowing smile, and my tense nerves were also loosened.

In the excitement, I hugged Zhao Haipeng and my younger brother Zhang Asi and laughed.

I shouted, "It's all right, it's too peaceful......!" Let's go on skewers! Eat as much as you want! I'll take it all!"

As I spoke, I put away the car keys, didn't even leave anyone to watch the store at night, and directly beckoned everyone to eat roast mutton at the barbecue stall on Siyan Street.

The cold wind is constant at night, and occasionally there are newspaper fragments, moths to the fire, and those little things are floating on the incandescent light bulbs above our heads, which affects the mood, but the hot fried instant noodles with dripping red oil meat skewers are really good, and the food is warm on my body, and a few bottles of wine are in my stomach, and I am also a little drunk and hazy.

At this time, Ah Si, who was drunk, jumped out, and shouted to Zhao Shuihe for a while, "Pomegranate sister is long, pomegranate sister is short", and finally said that he could perform magic tricks and could turn the incandescent light bulb above our heads away.

Seeing Ah Si's embarrassing performance, I hurriedly asked him to stop, but the drunk Zhang Ah Si was no longer a normal person, I only saw him suddenly take the light bulb off the top of the table, and he was about to swallow it in his mouth when he spoke!

While foaming at the mouth, this guy pointed to his big face plate and mung bean eyes, and smiled shamelessly at Zhao Shuihe: "I said pomegranate girl, I will give you this light bulb to disappear, you will wash my feet for free......! I'm going to go with these two corns. ”

After speaking, Ah Si opened his mouth to swallow the light bulb.

Ah Si, this bastard has played too much, I can't watch him swallow a light bulb, and Zhao Shuihe can't dig corns in his face.

So, I hurried ahead of the curve, snatched the bulb from the kid before he could put it all in his mouth, and kicked the unlucky guy out of the way.

After Zhang Asi gnawed on the, I scolded a few words angrily, and then hurriedly compensated Shuihe and the barbecue stall owner for a smile, and twisted the light bulb on the barbecue stall back.

It was screwed up, powered on, and everything was normal, but when the light bulb full of Zhang A's four salivas lit up again, we were stunned to see that the yellow-white halo of the bulb flickered a few times, and instantly turned blue-green.

Almost at the same time, all the lights at the barbecue stand went out, except for the lamp on my table, which shone green and flickered very unsteadily.

I, Zhao Shuihe, Zhao Haipeng, everyone sitting here was reflected in the dim light, like a ghost who had just crawled out of a coffin.

The whole world fell silent, I couldn't even feel the movement of air, and the people and noise around me disappeared completely.

It's as if time has stopped.

Looking at everyone's more and more serious faces, I eagerly asked Zhao Haipeng: "Old Zhao...... This...... What do you mean?"

Zhao Haipeng didn't answer me immediately, he first held down Zhao Shuihe, who was trembling and panicking, and then said to me: "Adapt, don't say 'dead' words, no matter what you see for a while, don't leave this seat!"

Listening to these things I didn't understand, I could only nod my head, and at this time, in the dim street on the opposite side of the barbecue stand, a black shadow, carrying a green paper lantern, leisurely "floated" over.

The guy with the lantern was dreamlike, and he walked with a limp, like a mechanical zombie, which reminded me of my grandfather's story.

In that story, Huo Hailong passed away with a group of resentful ghosts with green lanterns, and now, my grandfather and I have a past with my stepfather...... Do you want to repeat it on me?

A gust of wind is blowing in the face.

As if to confirm the fear and worry in my heart, a dry and cold song suddenly sounded in the direction of the black shadow.

The song is tragic, desolate, and cold, and my heart trembles when I listen to it, and my heart is broken!

The man with the cyan lantern was clearly singing to us: "I love you, but you love him, my heart is broken for you......"

Listening to this song with a complicated meaning, I suddenly understood that this ghost who was looking for my life was ...... Definitely a ghost with a lot of feelings.

At this time, the guy who was carrying a lantern and singing a song was ...... Finally came over.

From the appearance, it was just an ordinary old man in his seventies, this person was thin, half a head shorter than me, wearing a Tang costume with blue flowers on a black background, a mustache, round glasses, pointed ears, squinted eyes, a pair of flip-flops under his feet, and he walked with a snapping sound.

Of course, although he is very weak, I don't dare to be careless, because since the scene of the last time I complained about the old lady, I have already understood that these resentful things are not something that people can identify with the naked eye, just like the so-called "ghosts and ghosts", they will change the law to make you careless, and when people see their horror, the time of death will come.

The old man who sat down smiled, he looked at me, and said first: "Let me introduce myself first, my name is Wu Yaoxian, known as Wu Demon Lao, and my identity as a layman is a fortune teller, but in fact I am a goblin...... The first time we met, I didn't sing well, so bear with me. ”

Wu Demon Lao's straightforwardness surprised me, I didn't expect a goblin to be so generous to admit that he was a goblin, and I didn't expect a goblin to be a fortune teller.

Because this straightforward answer was a little too weird, the three of us sat there, staring at him with wide eyes, and no one answered.

The demon elder looked at our nervous expressions, and said with a smile: "Why is the atmosphere so stiff? You weren't so honest when you killed my children and grandchildren, right? Now you see me...... Scared?"

The demon elder's repeated questioning made me a little embarrassed, so I took the lead in asking, "That...... Demon Elder, you came here to find us...... What's the matter?"

"Isn't this clear?" Wu Demon Lao picked up the beer bottle that originally belonged to Ah Si, took a sip of wine and ate a skewer, he chirped, pointed at me and said: "You, the one who opened a black shop......, harmed my three demon grandchildren, and killed me by such cruel means, is it tolerable or unbearable, today, I am here to ask for your life, understand?

When this Wu Demon Old Man spoke, he was angry, and he couldn't see an old demon's style at all, but when a person said that he wanted my life so casually, I suddenly felt ...... Why is it so funny?

If it weren't for the green light, I doubt very much that he would be an ordinary person who came to cheat and eat and drink.

Wu You's funny appearance shocked the people who sat down again, and he quickly collapsed his previous powerful aura, especially Zhao Shuihe, who couldn't hold back and laughed out loud.

I didn't know that there was something wrong with this girl's tendons, so she actually asked, "I said, old man, how can you be a goblin like this?" ”

"Tease?" The old man's aura changed suddenly, and then the green tendons on his forehead suddenly appeared, and his thin face was distorted and deformed at an extremely fast speed, transforming into the appearance of a black cat's head......

The cat's head, glaucoma, and bloody fangs are no different from ghosts.

In an instant, an unusually cold breath came from the direction of the old man, pressing my chest painfully, and then with a "bang", the miserable green light bulb above our heads shattered at the same time.
