Chapter XIX. Arbitrage messages
I think it's a little funny in my heart, but at the same time I think it's very beautiful, it's a pity that this girl is a little silly, otherwise she and Da Mao still look very harmonious together. Maybe it's because of us so-called normal people who have lost that innocence, for silly girls, this is probably a very normal and casual action, but for Da Mao and me, there is a trace of ambiguity.
Da Mao looked at me and looked at him with a wicked smile, and his face turned red all of a sudden. So he hurriedly said, okay, okay, let's continue to play the game, now it's time for us to ask you again, yes, there is candy to eat. The silly girl nodded happily, probably thinking that no matter who asks questions in this game, no matter who answers, it will always be herself who eats the candy in the end.
Da Mao thought for a while and asked, who is that sister who went out shopping with you today? The silly girl smiled and said that she didn't know each other, but her sister was very good, liked to laugh, and always gave her candy to eat. After answering this question, the silly girl reached over and tried to grab the candy from the sugar pocket in Da Mao's hand and eat it. Da Mao's hand shrank, but he still handed her one, and then Da Mao asked again, are you seeing this sister for the first time? Haven't seen it before? The silly girl said yes, the first time I saw it today, no one came into the house to play with me before, and my sister came here to talk to me for a while.
It seems that the order of this game is out of order here, and the silly girl doesn't care, just a problem and a candy. So I then asked, "You said that this sister told you a lot, what did she say?" After asking, I also handed over a piece of candy.
The silly girl said that my sister praised me for my good looks, and said that after finding that aunt here, she would take me to meet the big brother who called me, and said that the big brother liked me very much!
Big brother? Who is this person she is talking about? Could it be the mysterious person behind the scenes who has never shown up? If it was him, wouldn't his purpose be to find the female ghost? Why do you need this stupid girl? So I quickly asked again, did that sister tell you why she took you to that big brother? At this time, the silly girl looked twisted, as if a child was shy, and said to the index finger of both hands, she said that the big brother said that I was good-looking, and he wanted to take me to eat a lot of sugar.
It's hard for me to describe how I felt when I heard this, this silly girl obviously couldn't lie, and if she said that, it proved that the woman had really said these things to her during the day, at least something like that. If this woman's stone is coaxing a silly girl, then there are many ways to say, why do you want to praise her for her good looks? And why do you say that the big brother likes her? If it's really what I think, then will this "big brother" be a little too subordinate, is he planning to bully other girls when he sees others being stupid?
But I also thought that if I were the mysterious person behind the scenes, I would rather find someone with a disability to help me find the ghost, at least she is easier to manipulate than a serious master like Da Mao, and it doesn't cost much.
Just as I was thinking about this, I suddenly heard Da Mao ask, have you seen that big brother? The silly girl said without hesitation, yes, before I came here, the eldest brother took me to play for many days and gave me a lot of candy to eat. Da Mao glanced at me after hearing this, I nodded, I understood what he meant, if this girl herself was not stupid, presumably the person behind the scenes would not have met her, let alone played with her for so many days. It was precisely because the other party was a fool that he felt harmless, so he let down his guard. He probably never thought that it was his overconfidence that gave us an opportunity.
So I handed her another candy and asked, "When that big brother came to you, how did your father promise you to follow him?" The reason why I ask this is also my biggest question. Because this girl is mentally handicapped, she is a person who is relatively unable to take care of herself, and under normal circumstances, parents will bother more than ordinary children, just like with a small child. This girl is eighteen years old, and she doesn't look ugly, how could her parents be so relieved and bold to give her to a stranger, and go out for so many days?
The silly girl took the candy from my hand and stuffed it into her mouth, and then replied, and my father and mother happily agreed, and the big brother gave my father and mother a thick stack of papers, and my father and mother happily let me go with him.
I felt a sigh and sadness in my heart, and it was obvious that the "stack of papers" in the mouth of the silly girl, if I didn't guess wrong, should be banknotes. In other words, the stupid girl's parents sold her for money, no wonder they didn't worry about it after coming out for so long. Probably the people behind the scenes want to say that instead of spending money to invite other masters, whether it can be done or not, the cost of secrecy is very large, but anyone with a little conscience will finally tell this matter one day, and Da Mao chose to tell me under such circumstances. It's better to spend money directly to buy a fool with yin and yang eyes, once and for all, if there is the same need in the future, you can continue to use it, the cost is low, just a bunch of candy is enough to send it.
I think it's a little sad, but after all, it's none of my business, this is Zhou Yu beating Huang Gai, one is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer. However, the silly girl's words have been confirmed by this, and the logic is smooth. It's just that after he really finds the female ghost one day, it can be imagined whether he will care about this stupid girl or not.
Da Mao then asked, are you bored here every day? The silly girl said, it's not boring, it's just that I always can't sleep well at night, and when I close my eyes, there are always people flying around here, and when I open my eyes, I can't see it. The roof was always creeping, like a mouse. When she said this, the silly girl suddenly showed a look full of fear, she shrunk her neck, her hands kept swinging, as if she had been saying no, no, no, different, and then said, I am most afraid of mice, rats are going to bite my toes, biting ears, I am most afraid of mice...
Who knew that Da Mao actually asked casually, which made this stupid girl scared. And Da Mao's question, in fact, didn't ask the idea at all, because the main purpose of our coming today is to talk, so every sentence has to be carefully asked, and every candy has to be understood before giving, but he came to such a painless question, I feel that Da Mao seems to care about this silly girl.
Seeing that she was scared, Da Mao hurriedly handed over a candy, and said as if coaxing a child that he was not afraid, come on, eat candy. It was a very useful trick that diverted the silly girl's attention in an instant, but what she had just said caused me some incomprehension. Da Mao once lived in this house, he and Wang Chengqian are both conscious and capable people, and they have not seen anything "flying around" in this house for a month, can it be said that it is a ghost? But it shouldn't be, although this girl was invited, but in the final analysis, her role is still a buyer rather than a seller, although everyone here controls some ghosts, but they will never condone ghosts to run around in the middle of the night. She also said that there was always a rustling sound on the roof, saying that there were mice, but since we entered the bamboo forest earlier, we found that there were no rats here, not even small birds and insects and ants, and there were almost no animals in this yin-gathering place, where did the rats come from? This place has been abandoned for such a long time, isn't the rat going to starve to death here, isn't it allowed to eat bamboo, and it's not a giant panda!
And just when Da Mao and I climbed onto the roof, I also noticed that there was nothing else on the roof except for the tarpaulin and tiles, and the tiles had not been moved for too long, and they were all stuck together because of the condensation of dust in the air, and the sound of rustling was naturally unlikely to be the sound of the wind blowing the tiles.
I couldn't figure it out, so I put the matter aside for now, and then asked a question of candy, trying to get something out of the silly girl's mouth for something that I thought might help us.
From his mouth, I learned the general appearance of the mysterious person behind the scenes, the other party is short hair, which may be related to the previous military experience, the eyes are not big, he doesn't like to talk, the body looks strong but not fat, and the mouth looks a little strange, as for the specific strange method, maybe the vocabulary is limited, and the silly girl can't express it clearly anyway.
The time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye it was close to two o'clock in the morning. I heard the sound of people walking around the door, and thought to myself that it was probably around this time that some of the vendors were starting to get ready to close their stalls, and the rest of the people would stay until dawn. And the silly girl had been stretching and yawning since a few minutes ago, and she had eaten so much candy that night that she had burped. So I thought to myself, it's almost over, I can't pester other girls in the middle of the night and don't let me sleep. So I said to the silly girl, "Then my brother will go first, remember that this is our little secret, and we can't tell anyone that we have been here, otherwise there will be no candy to eat."
The silly girl clapped her hands and said yes, but the clapping hands had obviously lost the excitement she had before, and it seemed that she was really dozing off. So I asked Da Mao to climb out of the roof first, and as soon as the two chairs overlapped, I easily climbed the beam and got out of the hole. Afraid that the roof would not be able to bear too much weight, I asked Da Mao to go down to the ground first and whistle before I climbed out.
Soon the big hairy whistle sounded, and I said goodbye to the silly girl, and then crawled out.
