Lao Dao explained: "Don't worry, you just wait to eat, we brought something, you can tell them where the kitchen is." ”

The couple waved their hands again and again, and the husband hurriedly said: "There is no light in the village after dark, where can you dare to make a fire!" ”

The woman also hurriedly said, "There is a ...... living in the cave." When you see the light, you will find it. ”

Zhu Qinglin smiled: "Don't be afraid, no." ”

Lao Tao asked:

"You've seen it with your own eyes? It's all passed down from generation to generation, it is said that there is a nose and an eye, and anyone who dies can be implicated in that Huaidong, I heard about your village a few decades ago, saying that no one can get out alive when outsiders come, and the people in your village dare not take in outsiders, saying that no one wants to marry them, but have you seen it with your own eyes? ”

The couple shook their heads and nodded sluggishly.

Lao Dao sighed and asked, "If you have to make a fire and cook tonight to save your children, will you agree?" ”

The two of them stood there in a daze, and after a while the woman began to cry, and then there was a hurried knock on the door, and the woman immediately stopped crying, and the couple hurried out.

Lao Dao took the opportunity to ask Zhu Qinglin: "Do you think they are scaring themselves?" How can I feel that the yin energy is heavy? ”

"Yes."

Lao Dao was stunned for a moment, leaned over and whispered, "Why did you lie to them?" ”

"No lie, not a ghost."

Lao Dao wanted to ask again, but the couple helped an old man into the house, followed by two young people.

The room is not big, and I can't see anything clearly, and a few more people come in at once, and it is suddenly full, Zhu Cai will not go anywhere without Zhu Qinglin's order, Zhu Tie and Zhu Jian dare not go anywhere, the old way is equivalent to Zhu Qinglin's mouth, and it is impossible to leave.

The old man was also helped by the couple to sit on the edge of the bed, but he was face to face with Zhu Qinglin, but no one could see who clearly.

The old man coughed lightly and said:

"Now that you know that there is a ...... in the village Huaidong, but also to go into the village to treat the soil baby, our whole village is grateful, but can we hurry up and heal, while it is not alarmed...... You guys get out of here? ”

"Make a fire, cook." Zhu Qinglin said very gently.

Lao Tao said:

"Old man, the rumors of Huaidong Village have been circulating for decades, right? If it is true, it must be solved, and if it is false, it must be pierced, otherwise the village will be ruined sooner or later! To save this child this time, you have to make a fire......"

"That'...... Save again tomorrow? ”

"Aren't the old man afraid that we will die in the village tonight?" Lao Dao asked with a smile.

The old man looked at the couple, not to mention children in the village, even young and middle-aged people are not many left, how many children are finally there, and how many people can live to adulthood? Maybe before he closes his eyes, the village will be ruined.

The old man lowered his head and thought for a while, then suddenly raised his head:

"Good! Firing! Early death and early life! The old man shouted, shouting out decades of panic.

The congratulatory dishes were lit with candles, and soon, the house was lit up, and the kitchen in the yard was lit up.

Zhu Qinglin looked at the child again by the candlelight, and couldn't help but sigh again and again.

The couple thought that the child was hopeless, and they were so frightened that they were about to cry loudly, Zhu Qinglin said, "Hungry." ”

The couple froze with their mouths open.

Lao Dao asked: "Hungry and sore all over your body?" It's the first time I've heard of it. ”

"It hurts, it's not sick, I'm hungry." Zhu Qinglin leaned against the wall.

Lao Dao understood and asked the couple: "You haven't fed the child for a few days?" ”

And the woman said in a trembling voice; "I can't touch it, I scream in pain when I touch him, and it hurts when the wind blows, and I only feed some gruel and vegetable soup these days."

Zhu Qinglin closed his eyes and didn't speak, and Lao Dao pointed at Zhu Qinglin and persuaded: "You can see from his appearance, the child is fine, don't worry, you will be alive in a while." ”

The couple wanted to laugh and cry, and their expressions were extremely rich.

Lao Dao looked at the old man again, he sat down in front of the old man, and asked in a low voice, "Have you ever seen the old man with your own eyes?" ”

The old man sighed, closed his eyes, and said:

"I've seen it, I've seen it once when I was a child, my grandfather and grandmother have passed away one after another, I've met once after I got married, my parents have passed away one after another, and I haven't seen it since, if I see you again today, it's my turn! Alas, as the old saying goes: thousand-year-old pine, 10,000-year-old cypress, it's better to take a break from the old acacia! You thought it was dead, but who knew it was sleeping, and it would grow branches and leaves in two years! Several times I thought that the old locust tree was dead, and that thing was gone, and I wanted to cut it, but I didn't dare to ......."

Lao Dao hurriedly asked, "What does that thing look like?" It's dark at night, can you see clearly? ”

The old man snorted and said: "In the early years, it was divided into black and white, and it only came out at night, but over the years, it still cares about day and night, and wants to come out without day!" ”

"Oh?"

Zhu Qinglin closed his eyes and said: "The black qi is clouded, the qi is within reach, the bloody nose is rushed, and the blade cannot be used." ”

The old man was surprised that Zhu Qinglin said so much, and the old man was surprised that Zhu Qinglin seemed to have seen it!

Zhu Qinglin still closed his eyes, and said again: "Move, there is a sound." ”

The old man sighed, got up and rushed to Zhu Qinglin and asked, "Are you a disciple of the Zhu family?" Have the ability to subdue demons and subdue demons? ”

Lao Dao hurriedly said: "How come I don't know that Zhu Xishan's disciples and grandchildren still have this ability? He didn't have it himself! ”

The old man was a little confused, he looked at Lao Dao and asked, "Don't you know that the disciples and grandchildren of the Zhu family are very capable?" I asked someone to invite me, but unfortunately I didn't have enough money, so they didn't come. ”

"I know they're used to deceiving people, it's good if you don't scrape together enough money, and if you do, you're cheapening them for nothing!"

"Dao Chief, you can't talk nonsense, I heard ......"

"Since you can't do it when you hear about it, let's talk about your own difficulties first! You said you haven't seen it again, and after all these years, that thing hasn't appeared again? Lao Dao asked.

"Why didn't it appear again, but, alas, I didn't see it again, the others did, why didn't you let outsiders into the village? That thing is pleasing to people, and it will appear at night after hearing outsiders enter the village, how can outsiders have a reason to live? I'm scared to death! It doesn't matter whose house the visitor lives in, they will all be unlucky! In the past few decades, outsiders have not dared to enter the village, and the people in the village have not dared to take them in, alas, slowly, Huaidong Village is like being isolated from the world, and whoever has something to do will be helped by the people of the village......"

"Since outsiders don't enter the village, it has come out less?" Lao Dao asked

"It occasionally comes out for a walk, anyway, whoever sees it, there will be a funeral at home, there is no way during the day, always have to work in the field, at night, try not to talk, do not light the lamp, do not light a fire, who wants to see it!"

"It doesn't hurt?"

The old man shook his head and said, "I haven't seen it hurt people, I saw it scared people, and then someone in the family was infected and died. ”

Lao Dao followed the old man's eyes and looked at Zhu Qinglin, Zhu Qinglin still closed his eyes and said, "It's at the door." ”
