Chapter 1040: Ninety Springs (16)
Early the next morning, before dawn, Yan Ze got up and went out.
When the warm tea woke up, Yan Ze brought back dew, mountain fruits, honey and fresh petals from outside.
He put the things within reach of the warm tea, lowered his head and kissed the little girl's forehead, before turning around and going down the mountain to earn money.
Wen Cha took a sip of the dew, and happily sat cross-legged on the bed and nibbled on the fruit, lazy, not to mention how comfortable.
As soon as Yan Ze walked to the town, he heard from the vendor on the side that the town was haunted last night.
He frowned slightly, and walked to the front of the shop, where there was a circle of people at the door of the pork shop, men, women and children with panicked faces, pointing at the shop.
"What's going on?" Yan Ze grabbed the stall owner who was selling breakfast and asked in a deep voice.
"Yan Butcher," saw his stall owner softened in fright, "why are you here?" You didn't stay in the yard last night? ”
"No," Yan Ze stared at him coldly, "What happened here last night?" ”
"You don't know," the stall owner was almost scared at the mention of this, "Yesterday, I closed the stall late, and as soon as it was dark, I heard the sound of someone talking in your yard, I thought you didn't leave, so I knocked on the door, and guess what happened?" ”
The stall owner showed a frightened expression, "There was a terrible cry from inside. ”
Cry?
Yan Ze's eyebrows twisted, "How can there be crying?" ”
"How do I know," the stall owner quickly shook his head, and said: "After the crying, the wind in the house was fierce, blowing my door crackling, and the pigs in your pen also howled, very evil, I knew that something was wrong, and I didn't dare to speak again, so I turned my foot and went back to the house, who knows, the cry sounded for most of the night, and it didn't stop until today, and the neighbors listened to it......"
"After dawn, everyone gathered here, saying that your house is haunted, and I am afraid that you have some kind of evil obstacle......"
"Impossible."
Yan Ze let go of him, turned around and bypassed the crowd to open the door of the pork shop, everyone looked at the crack in the door, there seemed to be a fierce battle inside, firewood and pots and pans were blown to the ground, and the laurel tree in the corner was also broken horizontally, isn't it haunted?
What was even more terrifying was that the row of captive houses where the livestock were locked up, and there was a very strong fishy smell.
Yan Ze opened the door of the ring, and the three animals to be slaughtered inside had their necks bitten off by something, and they were lying on the ground, and the blood that flowed out had become dry and fishy, and they had obviously been dead for a long time.
But the pork was not eaten, and the terrible thing was that there was a blood hole the size of a sea bowl on the belly of the corpse, as if it had been dug up by an unknown thing with its claws, and the pig's heart had disappeared!
"It's haunted!" Seeing this, someone shouted in a lost voice, "It was a ghost who eats people's hearts!" ”
"I wrote about this kind of ghost in the book, relying solely on the heart and liver cultivation of eating people and animals, once it is entangled, it will never give up!"
"Oh my God! How did this Yan butcher get into trouble with this evil spirit? It's horrible, too! Will this pork still be sold in the future? ”
"Don't say whether pork sells or not? It's still a question of whether this shop can be opened, the evil ghost has found this place, and it will definitely be found again in the future, and this shop will hang in the future. ”
Hearing this, many people felt unlucky, for fear that they would also be entangled by evil spirits, and hurriedly pushed their companions away.
"Hurry up, hurry up, this heart-eating ghost is not a joke, if we leave late, we will be entangled in the future!"
As soon as I said this, the rest of the people, everyone was in danger, and they wished that they had never been here, and they were scattered in a moment.
Yan Ze was now looking at the mess on the spot, and smelled a smell of earth.
He walked to the cinnamon tree, which had been growing in the yard since he bought it, for three years, and this year it had grown very tall, and when autumn it would be full of flowers, and he thought of making some wine from the flowers and bringing warm tea, but it was broken in the spring.
Yan Ze lowered his head and stroked the branches of the cinnamon, and the earthy smell became heavier between his noses.
He picked up a shovel not far away and dug through the dirt under the tree, and found that the monkey wine that the jar of warm tea had given him was gone.
Monkey wine is a scarce thing, and after he got it, he was reluctant to open the can, but he didn't expect it to hide it in the belly of others.
Yan Ze clenched his fists, a trace of gloom flashed in his eyes, it was okay to take away anything else, why did he take away what Wen Cha gave him?
Unforgivable!
Now that everyone in the town knows about the haunting of the pork shop, the business will not continue for a moment.
Yan Ze packed up the things in the yard little by little, and finally dragged the carcasses of the three livestock to the suburbs with an ox cart and buried them.
Of course, it is not the evil spirits who are at work, as can be seen from the wounds of the corpses.
Although the tooth marks on the corpse are not clear, the shape is by no means mortal, and there are also paw prints on the abdomen, which are sharp and flexible, like some kind of spiritual spirit.
Coupled with the faint smell of earth in the air, Yan Ze's eyes were unprecedentedly indifferent.
After he buried the body, he quietly returned to the pork shop, and the flower shop opposite didn't know why it hadn't opened yet, Yan Ze rubbed his fingers, and a trace of gloom crossed the corners of his eyes.
After Gu Wenxuan got out of school, he sent the little guy guarding the door to the town to inquire about the news, and after learning that Yan Ji pork shop was haunted, a happy smile appeared on his face, "It's really self-inflicted, this time, I see what confidence he still has." ”
The little guy was silent for a moment and said, "According to the current situation, I am afraid that the pork shop will be destroyed."
"He deserves it," Gu Wenxuan sneered, "Who made him restless and had to provoke a vicious demon?" Everything is retribution. ”
His slightly hideous expression made the little guy a little frightened, accepted the reward, and retreated to the side without speaking.
Gu Wenxuan got up and flicked the dust that didn't exist on his sleeve, and said, "In the future, you will go to the town more often to see what other tricks Yan Ji pork shop has."
"Yes."
In the afternoon, Tao Ning opened the door of the house with a weak heart, and prepared to go to Qingshan Academy to discuss countermeasures with Gu Wenxuan.
Banxia, who was sitting under the peach blossom tree drinking tea, looked up at her, "Sister, where are you going?" ”
Tao Ning was taken aback by her, "Why are you here?" ”
"Why can't I be here?" Banxia asked casually, "Could it be that my sister's name is written in this place, and I can't come yet?" ”
"That's not what I meant," Tao Ning shook her head, pretending to be concerned: "You always like to stay in the house on weekdays, why did you think about coming out today."
"Coincidentally," Banxia raised her head and looked at Tao Ning quietly, "Sister, do you remember that I met a friend of Huang Jing before I transformed?" ”
Yellow essence? Weasel?
Tao Ning's heart was shocked, and there was a bit of jealousy in her eyes when she looked at Banxia, "How many years have you been doing, what are you still mentioning it?" ”
"My sister doesn't know, that Huang Jing was kind to me in the early years, and several times in order to get rid of the pests on my roots, before it died of old age, I also made an agreement with it in order to repay the favor."
"I see." Tao Ning pretended to be calm and said, "I don't know what agreement was made?" ”
Banxia looked at her and smiled, and said, "No, last night, that yellow essence gave me a dream, saying that its juniors had done evil things that were punished by God, and asked me to teach its disobedient juniors a good lesson, so that it knows what rules are."
Speaking of which, Tao Ning was already sweating profusely, she didn't dare to look at Banxia's eyes, and said incoherently: "You...... If you want to teach, go to the back of the mountain to teach, and I will not stop you. ”
"Heh," Banxia shook her head slightly, "After waking up this morning, I really wanted to teach that junior a lesson, but I remembered what my sister said to me. ”
"What?" Tao Ning's heart jumped.
"If you do evil things, you will always be punished, it's not that the time has not yet come, since this junior has done evil, why should I be its wicked person, it's better to let Heaven clean it up, and save my effort, sister, do you say yes?"
Tao Ning: "......"
