Chapter 13: I'm Really Afraid of Ghosts...
"Hey, you're fine, right?" The pedestrian looked at Xiaoling helplessly, turned his head and asked me lightly who had walked to the door and was about to leave.
I turned around and smiled at him, waved my hand and closed the door, really! Am I really a child? A small spirit is not enough for me to breathe, and does it really dare to provoke me?
When I got up early in the morning, I moved my body at the door and saw a scene that made my head full of black lines, and the pedestrian was helpless with a bucket ready to fetch water, and the roll of unknown objects hanging on his back seemed to be the legendary spirit behind it. I knew it was Suzu, but I didn't know what she was trying to do, was she really scared by a spirit and didn't dare to leave the quilt, and at the same time didn't dare to leave the pedestrians? You're not too young!
"Yo! Good morning. The pedestrian smiled weakly at me and continued to move forward with difficulty.
I kindly helped him hold the bucket and let him free his hands to take care of Xiao Ling, and then said sympathetically, "You must have not rested last night, right?" It's really hard for you. ”
The pedestrian looked at me with resentment, yawned and said to me, "It's good that you know, Xiao Ling, she keeps arguing in the middle of the night, don't you hear?" ”
Shall I not sleep in the middle of the night and run into the air to study how to get out of this island, and I will tell you? I said lightly, "I sleep relatively dead, unless there is a big earthquake, a tsunami, a volcanic eruption, or the end of the world." ”
"I won't complain about the front, if the world is over, you better not wake up, and die in a dream." The pedestrian complained weakly.
I stood next to the well to draw water, looked around at the girls who had gathered here early in the morning, and I said, is there only one well on the whole island? Last time, I only saw Lingling alone, and this time there were several of them. Especially Ayane! Isn't your home at a shrine halfway up the mountain? As for running so far in the morning to get water here!? You don't have to be as close to pedestrians as you want, right?
Everyone was surprised to see the current appearance of Xiao Ling, and after learning the reason why Xiao Ling became like this from the passers-by, they were even more shocked!
"Ahh Sure enough, everyone knows that legend. "The pedestrians poured the water I had brought into the buckets, and it was incomprehensible that all the people believed in such legends.
"Of course, it's one of the seven incredible things that everyone on this island knows!" Chikage, the most knowledgeable, explained to pedestrians.
"Sure enough, there are legends like this everywhere." The pedestrian and I sighed helplessly, could it be that these incredible legends are Japanese traditions?
Ayane looked at Xiao Ling with some amusement, and now Xiao Ling was still rolled up in the quilt, only revealing a small head, and hugged him behind the pedestrians with tearful eyes, refusing to let go. Ayane smiled helplessly: "But, this little bell looks like a spirit behind it!" ”
"It's been like this since last night...... pedestrian's smile helplessly, he really has no way to take the current little bell, and he can't rest assured that the little bell can't get off.
"Well! It's pitiful, but kawaii! "I gave a thumbs up to the little bell.
"Little Suzu, this kind of legend is specially made up to prevent children from approaching dangerous places, or to prevent children from mischievous. How can there be a ghost or a curse......" The pedestrian confidently explained to the girls who were also worried and scared, and finally smiled at Xiao Ling and said, "So, Xiao Ling doesn't have to worry." ”
"Really?" Xiao Ling looked at the confident appearance of the pedestrians, and finally felt a little sense of security and calmed down, but no matter how she looks at it now, she has a feeling of praying for comfort, which is really cute!
Just as Suzu was about to come out of the quilt, Ayane's eerie voice came out: "I saw it, there is a white hand behind Suzu......"
"Nani !!??" In just a moment, Xiao Ling grabbed the pedestrian's neck in fear and looked around in horror. If I'm not mistaken, the pedestrian's neck just made a "click" sound, I put my hands together, pedestrian, you go all the way!
"Hehehe, it's been a long time since I've played tricks on Xiaoling like this, and I finally avenged Xiaoling." Ayane looked at Suzu and smiled happily, and it seemed to me that she didn't mean to stop at all.
"I can see it very clearly with the blood of a shrine maiden on my body, and there is a sticky shadow of an evil spirit on the back of the little bell......" Ayane showed a professional magic stick to scare the guests, with a gloomy expression, and the voice was also very terrifying to say to the little bell: "As long as you are possessed, you will appear anywhere in the end, and then your soul will be led to the underworld......
Suzu didn't stop yelling as Ayane spoke, but thankfully she did let the pedestrian go, even though he was now in a semi-comatose state. Anyway, Ayane, you are so scared that Suzu is really no problem? Even ordinary people are extremely scared and there is a possibility that they will suddenly lose their minds......
"Say no more!!" Xiao Suzu was finally frightened and broke her nerves, and directly turned to Ayane, who was silent...... But why is it that even after being treated like this, Ayane's whole body faints, and there is still a satisfied smile on her face? Could it be that she's an M?
"That's why I told you not to do that." Lingling sighed helplessly, and patted Xiao Ling, who was completely rolled into the quilt, Xiao Ling was now scared and didn't dare to face the outside world.
............ Devil's dividing line...........
In the end, I moved Suzu back to the house with the pedestrian who finally woke up, and Suzu clutched the quilt tightly, and no matter how much she persuaded her, she couldn't get her out of the quilt.
The pedestrian reluctantly gave up persuasion, shook his head and asked me, "What should I do?" Xiao Ling's symptoms are getting worse and worse now, and she can't work anymore. I'm not worried about letting her stay at home alone, or will you stay? ”
"I'm still looking for thorns to study today, so you might as well stay." I flashed to the door in an instant, smiled and waved at the wide-mouthed passers-by and said, "Take good care of the little bell!" ”
"Damn! Let him run away! The pedestrian muttered, looked at the shaking quilt, and then at the wood-burning stove, and sighed helplessly. The conscience of heaven and earth, he has never used firewood to cook and eat, and he has not even cooked by himself!
I was making a small piece of furniture, and the old woman suddenly appeared and said to me lightly, "I heard that the little bell broke the Jizo Bodhisattva statue and was possessed by an evil spirit......
"You want to ask me, why don't you help Suzu banish the evil spirit?" I didn't raise my head, and said lightly: "I think you can also see from that jade pendant that I am also a person with special powers, but you probably don't know the **** cultivator." ”
I looked up to wipe my sweat, smiled faintly at the elder woman and said, "I will only attack the real evil spirits, and the one that Xiao Ling provokes is just a spirit monster who likes to play pranks, and nothing will happen." Besides, isn't this situation a good fit for her to take her relationship with pedestrians a step further? ”
"Hehe, it would be great if that was the case." The elder woman smiled as well, turned around and slowly left.
This old woman actually wants to come to my bottom? I shook my head helplessly and went on with my work. In other words, there are really various benefits after brain development, at least learning things N times faster. But it's obvious that there is no way for us to cook for us now, and I hope that the things made by pedestrians are not too unpalatable.
I went back to Kosuzu's house early, because I was worried about whether pedestrians would make too much raw rice or something, although I wouldn't do anything delicious myself, but at least it could stop pedestrians from making mistakes and let me eat something unpalatable! But what I like is that the pedestrian guy is in a hurry when cooking, but at least he doesn't misplace the salt and sugar......
"Little Bell, okay, come out, dinner is ready." Like a child coaxing a child to eat, the pedestrian beckoned to the little bell who had been hiding in the quilt all day and said, "Although it may not be delicious, I did it with a heart, so come out quickly." ”
Maybe it was because she stayed in the quilt all day and didn't see anything strange, but Suzu finally got better and finally got out of the quilt. Pedestrians and I were relieved to see her come out, just be willing to come out, and there will be nothing to do when she comes out.
"But I was a little surprised!" The pedestrian guy didn't have the etiquette of eating at all, and said to Xiao Ling while picking up rice: "Xiao Ling also has something to be afraid of..."
"What do you mean by that?" Xiao Ling puffed out her mouth angrily, and said angrily: "I used to be more afraid of ghosts than others, and I didn't dare to go alone at night or in a dark place." Since I started living on my own, I've improved a little, but as soon as I hear a ghost story, I ......."
"I'll make it easier." I found that Xiao Ling already wanted to cry a little, and sighed helplessly and said to the passerby: "You can comfort Xiao Ling, the girl's tears are ......" Shaking my head, I ignored the inexplicable eyes of the pedestrian and walked out.
Hawkers, I just can't bear to see girls shed tears! When children are scared, they will want to find their mothers for comfort, but if Suzu is scared now, she can't find her mother, and I have a deep understanding of that feeling! Back when I was living in the mountains with Goku, I was hesitant and scared, but I couldn't say anything to my family, and although Son Gohan treated me like a grandson, I couldn't really treat him as my grandfather. In that environment, I became stronger and more lonely, and I tasted all my thoughts silently by myself.
"Well, let's get Suzu's parents back before leaving." I looked at the bright stars in the sky and said to myself lightly and very firmly.
"Wow!!" Just when I was feeling sad, a scream that looked like Ayane sounded behind me, and I wouldn't be surprised that Ayane would be here. If she hadn't taken advantage of the fragility of Xiaoling's heart, it would have been the strangest thing to run over and continue to scare Xiaoling, and now she probably did it herself, and she met the spirit who likes to play pranks.
I myself was a little embarrassed, and I actually lost my usual vigilance because of the momentary emotion, and I didn't even notice that the spirit was approaching. But then again, Ayane, aren't you one with the blood of a shrine maiden? Looking at your dress, you can be regarded as an authentic alternate witch, being scared like this by a spirit, are you worthy of that cute witch costume on your body!?
