After the second brother finished speaking, he walked to the door and closed the door and window, and I got up and locked the door.

"Oh, yes, yes! The paper, pen and ink are all in the cabinet, brother, I will bring them for you. ”

The second brother waved his hand, and then drew a stack of rune paper, and said something for me and his wound, I don't know if it was the effect of the medicine or the psychological effect, and the wound was not so painful.

"These should be enough to last until the fifth watch tonight, and Dad should be able to arrive at that time, and there will be no more than an hour left and right."

The second brother said as he pasted the charm on the door and the window.

Don't worry, she didn't dare to act rashly for the time being, she also hurt her vitality just now. Besides, we still have ghost whips in our room, right? These charms can stop her for a while, so let's rest and recuperate. I hope Dad will come back soon. ”

"Huh! Good! ”

With that, the two of us went to bed and sat down.

"Eh, your face ......"

"What's wrong with my face?" I touched my face, and suddenly I noticed that my cheeks were swollen and high, "...... hiss"

"Why, I didn't have it yet."

I suddenly thought of the strange power when I was doing things for Yu Xin in the mourning hall.

I'm afraid it's the backlash of the super-duwen at that time, which didn't react at the time, but now it's manifested.

I touched my face, sighed, and said, "Hey. Don't mention this unfortunate thing. ”

The second brother looked at me, held my face and blew, "Does it hurt?" ”

"Also...... Fortunately, it's just a flesh wound. ”

"And ...... Second brother, you're too close. ”

Through the night, I couldn't see the look in my second brother's eyes, whether he was angry or distressed, I thought he would come to ask me about today's practice, and then come to talk to me about the family rules and ancestral teachings of those families.

Unexpectedly, the second brother was silent for a moment and said, "Remember, don't be reckless when you encounter danger in the future." ”

"Hmm." I was dumbfounded, and nodded my head.

"Second brother, what should we do now?" I asked.

"Sleep."

The second brother lay down and stopped looking at me. He wrapped himself in the quilt with his back to me.

"Of course, if you want to control the wind outside the door, I won't stop you, just don't tear up my talisman and re-paste it to blame the trouble."

"Hey! Hey! Big brother! Sleep sleep! I haven't lived enough! ”

I heard the muffled laughter of my second brother coming from the quilt.

"Brother, how long do you say I haven't slept together?"

"Three years? Five years? Eight years? ”

"Brother! Ignore me! I was wrong! I shouldn't have gone today, and I shouldn't have lied that the female ghost was beaten away. ”

“……”

I saw that my second brother ignored me for a long time, and I knew that I was bored, so I lay down and fell asleep.

The sound of the second brother's even breathing came from the side, and I also felt a sense of relief.

Maybe in this kind of family, they are destined to be with these gods, ghosts, and monsters...... Let's deal with it.

"Brother, I will never be unruly again." Nonsensical, I came up with this sentence against my will.

"Good."

It turned out that the second brother didn't sleep, but he just didn't want to pay attention to me.

……

"Oh, oh, oh-"

Outside the window, I heard the sound of a rooster crowing, accompanied by a rumbling thunder, and I opened my eyes.

I touched my side, and it was cold. My heart sank, and I hurriedly sat up and shouted, "Brother! ”

"What's wrong? Woke up? ”

The rain hit the eaves of the window, and the second brother's voice was very soft, and I followed the prestige, and the second brother was standing in front of the window. He looked back at me with a smile on his dark green coat.

"Hmm...... I see you're not there, and I'm a little worried. ”

"It's fine."

The second brother turned his head to look out the window again, looking thoughtful.

I wondered, "Second brother, what's wrong?" ”

"Can't sleep. Daddy has never been gone for so long without saying hello. ”

"It's the fifth watch......" the second brother's voice was extremely soft, "My heart is always shaking, and I don't know if something has gone wrong with my father." ”

"Dad is so powerful, there will definitely be nothing wrong. Brother, didn't you say that there was a difference of an hour, and my father should be back this time. If you don't come back, wait for the dawn, we won't be afraid, and we'll go to find Dad together when the time comes! ”

"Hmm." The second brother said perfunctorily.

"Bang bang bang!"

"Bang bang bang!"

A series of eager knocks broke the silence in the room, and a burst of demonic laughter came from the window as the rain poured outside the window.

"Haha...... Hahaha!! ”

The originally bright window reflected a dark shadow at this time, and the second brother hurriedly covered the window with a red cloth and looked at me with wrinkles.

"Brother...... Elder brother...... What to do? ”

"It's Yu Xin, if it's another ghost, I can't see it."

Hearing my second brother say this, my body stiffened in an instant.

"That'...... What to do! ”

"The doors and windows are sealed, and we can only hope that these charms will last a little longer."

"You rest first, get ready for the ghost whip!"

"Huh, huh! Good! I said shyly, "Brother...... I hid the whip until she finally came in and used it. ”

The second brother saw that I didn't speak again, he pulled a few more pieces of red cloth, pasted them on the other windows in the room, and sat down next to me.

"Arwen, you tell me the truth, is there anything else going on?"

"Brother, I really don't know what you're talking about...... I just went to the mourning hall to read a passage of chaodu, and then ...... And then...... Oh! Right! Earlier, I saw a dead black cat! ”

"It's Yu Xin's, brother, listen to me......"

Halfway through the words, I don't know why, Yu Xin outside the door seemed to be even more angry, the sound of the window was louder, and it was accompanied by Yu Xin's miserable laughter.

"Second brother, it's not a way to go on like this." I said with tears in my voice.
