Chapter 132: Straw Man

After Uncle Chen's reminder, the red cloth on the plaque has been replaced with a white cloth.

But the moment I hung it on the door, as the workers tried to adjust the angle, I always felt that it was lifeless, smoggy, and had an indescribable gloomy feeling.

Is it my delusion?

Or is there really something wrong with the plaque?

But after all, it is something that will be used forever, so you must be careful, otherwise you will be killed if you don't pay attention one day, and there will be nowhere to cry when the time comes!

Thinking of this, I directly dragged Uncle Chen aside.

"There is a problem with the plaque, pay attention, it is really not possible to take the opportunity to try it with a compass."

"Okay."

After all, Uncle Chen has known me for so long, of course he knows my skills, and he also understands that I don't like to lie.

His face sank as he nodded, and then he looked around to make sure that no one was paying attention to the movement here, so he hid behind me and Adong and took out the compass.

I've been helping with cover, so I don't have time to look back.

Only the subtle sound of the hand turning can be heard.

After a while, a calm voice came from behind him, it was Uncle Chen's.

"You're right, there is indeed a problem with this plaque, it should be that the materials inside have been replaced, and the appearance looks like willow and peach wood to ward off evil spirits, and the inside is probably replaced with the kind of trees that grow in the cemetery."

"So what should I do now?"

I couldn't make up my mind for a while.

Hearing this, Uncle Chen did not answer my question directly, but walked up and waved to several workers who were installing the plaque.

"Let's put down the plaque first, there's no rush to install it."

"Huh?"

Several workers looked back in confusion, not knowing what was going on.

I believe that they are innocent, because human eyes do not deceive people, and they have an average constitution, and they cannot do such a secret harm.

At this juncture, something happened to him.

When a worker turned around, he didn't pay attention to the movement in his hand, and accidentally scratched the plaque, and then poofed, a huge black shadow flashed in front of everyone, and everyone subconsciously avoided it.

Smack-

When I opened my eyes again, I saw that the plaque had been torn apart from the middle and shattered in half.

And what was hidden inside also fell out.

It was a small straw figure the size of a palm, with a note pasted on it with some unintelligible text symbols.

But after all, I have been with the master for so many years, and although I don't understand it, I can see that this is not a good thing, and it is probably an object used for curses.

"I ...... I really didn't break the plaque on purpose, I'll definitely pay for it, but I just don't make much money every month, and it may take a long time to fill this vacancy. ”

When the workers saw the broken plaque, they panicked and spoke intermittently.

However, although Uncle Chen kept looking down at the straw man in his hand, a muffled voice suddenly came, not only did he not blame, but praised his behavior.

"If it weren't for you, we wouldn't have found what was hidden inside."

"It's just that this matter is special in nature and is more secretive, and I hope you don't leak it to the outside world, otherwise it will cause disaster, and everyone will be worried about their lives at that time."

"I hope you understand."

Speaking of this, Uncle Chen finally raised his head, his eyes unfathomable.

At this time, the assistant suddenly stepped forward, took out a few hundred-yuan bills from his pocket and distributed them evenly to the workers, squinted his eyes and said with a smile.

"Now that you know the seriousness of the matter, and you have taken the money, can you shut up?"

As the saying goes, eat others with a short mouth, and take others softly.

Several workers looked at the red hundred-yuan bill in their hands and were moved.

Their families were poor and had not gone to school, so they had to do some hard work, which they had to work hard for a day to earn.

If you run into a denied boss again, the hard work of that day will be in vain.

So nodding your head right now is the best option.

So, they hurriedly put the money away, nodded their heads one by one, and swore that they would never leak this matter.

Uncle Chen also understood that this was a slap in the face to give a sweet date, and he could make these workers shut up completely, so he waved his hand casually to signal that they could go.

Seeing this, the workers, of course, did not dare to stay longer, and after thanking them, they all slipped away.

As soon as they walked on their front feet, a sedan sped along the road.

Uncle Chen glanced at the plaque on the ground, then looked around and said, "Arrange the broken plaques first, and let's go into the house too." By the way, I hope you don't tell Miss Jia about this today, it's not your responsibility, and you don't have to feel guilty about it. ”

"Thank you for your good intentions, then I'll go first, so I won't bother you."

The assistant was very sensible, and knew that the next step was not something he could mix, so he quickly nodded and left.

After he left, Ah Dong and I carried half of the plaque into the shop in front of us, and the rolling shutter door fell completely cut off from the outside world, and no one could see the movement inside.

When I saw that there was no one else around, I couldn't hold back my words.

"Uncle Chen, what is the situation with this straw man?"

"Someone has already targeted us, I'm afraid that the first few murders were all done by that guy in secret, but now the enemy is secret, and things are a little difficult to do."

After speaking, Uncle Chen put the straw man on the ground, took out two yellow talismans and lit them and threw them.

The straw man was instantly placed in a small cluster of fire.

By the time the fire was gone, there was only embers left on the ground.

Uncle Chen picked up a wire from the side and pulled it twice, and picked up a stone the size of a thumb cover inside, which was dark red as a whole and exuded a strong yin qi.

"It can now be concluded that the straw man was soaked in human blood before it was made."

"If we don't find the problem inside, or if we don't break it just now and the straw man falls out, this kind of plaque hanging on the door for a long time will affect our luck."

"From the very beginning, I made a small fight, I stuffed my teeth when I drank cold water, and in the end, I was hit by a car and died one day when I couldn't keep it."

The voice was faint, but terrifying enough.

I was shocked with goosebumps, I couldn't figure out who it was, how much of a grudge it was to hurt us like this?!

Moreover, we have not been in the city for a long time, and we usually have very little contact with people, so it stands to reason that we should not make enemies.

Wait, since we left the village and came to the town, we have solved a lot of murders, and we have invisibly offended many murderers and their families.

Could it be that someone has a grudge in their hearts, so they will secretly do it to us?

As soon as I thought of this, I felt terrified, and my heart chilled, so I simply told Uncle Chen what I thought.

"Uncle Chen, do you think it could be that those murderers are secretly playing ghosts and want to take revenge on a few of us? After all, I can't think of any other possibility......"
