I can keep you until five watches [unlimited] verse 59
Liu Buhua frowned, took out a golden yellow one from his sleeve pocket and sandwiched it between his index finger and middle finger, pinched a decisive gesture and said awe-inspiringly: "Let me meet her and see how deep she is." β
Li Hong reminded him in a low voice: "Mr. Liu, your talisman seems to have been taken upside down. β
Liu Buhua's expression remained unchanged when she heard this, and she said calmly: "The positive and negative of the talisman will not affect its effect on suppressing evil spirits. β
"She's gone now, I really saw her behind us with my own eyes just now, and even almost ran into ......" Xu Lu looked at Duan Ying who was walking beside Xu Chen, and paused before continuing, "Duan Ying's shoulder." β
At this moment, even Lu Ling couldn't help but rub his arm, "Xu Lu, the more you talk, the more scary it becomes." β
Duan Ying pursed her lips, lowered her eyelashes and said in a trembling voice: "She didn't panic, I did feel it all the time...... Someone was tapping me on the shoulder. β
"We are also ......" Li Luming and Yu Qinwen also echoed Duan Ying, "but we don't dare to look back, so we pretend not to know." β
Something like that happened at the first rehearsal tonight, several girls, especially Li Luming, were scared to death, and they were restless along the way, she could make up for them when she saw the villagers at that time, and now she was even more frightened and suffocated when she was patted on the shoulder when she walked at night, and she kept thinking about the horror movies and stories she had watched, and her legs were so weak that she couldn't walk, and it was impossible to turn back.
"Huh? I also felt like someone was tapping me on the shoulder. As a result, Li Hong was also stunned after listening to Li Luming's words, "I was just about to turn back when I heard Xu Lu screaming." β
Who knew that Xu Lu immediately widened his eyes when he heard this, and denied: "I didn't call that voice just now." β
Liao Xinyang asked her, "Isn't your name called?" It sounds very tender, like a girl's voice. β
"It's not me." Xu Lu shook her head, "I didn't scream, I was so scared that I couldn't make a sound." β
Lu Ling asked, "Who called it just now?" β
Everyone turned their attention to the remaining four girls: Li Luming, Duan Ying and Yu Qinwen, and one Ying Yishui, but they all said that they didn't call it.
"Don't look back when you walk at night." Liu Buhua, who was pinching the yellow talisman, sighed and said to everyone, "There are three fires on the body, two on the shoulders and one on the top of the head, and one will be extinguished once you turn around." β
"When the three lamps are extinguished, it is easy to get entangled in dirt."
The last sentence was said by Xie Yinxue.
But as he said this, he turned around and walked to Liu Buhua's side from the front of the line, then took the yellow talisman from Liu Buhua's hand, and then grabbed his wrist with two fingers and turned it lightly, and the yellow talisman burned without fire, blooming with a warm ray of fire in the dark night.
Then Xie Yinxue waved his sleeve and threw down the fire talisman, and the moment the fire talisman touched the ground, a wave of flames set off from the center, sweeping like ripples and sweeping under everyone's feet.
Ying Yishui was startled by the flames, and instinctively took a few steps back, only to find that these waves of flames were not hot, not even hot, just like a gentle breeze, and after the waves disappeared, a few dark black footprints appeared on the originally clean loess under their feet.
"Are these footprints from the ghost bride?" Ying Yishui leaned down and squatted down, studying these footprints as if he were observing medicinal herbs during the day, and frowned, "How do you look at it...... It's so small. β
These footprints are indeed surprisingly small, almost the size of a palm, like the bare feet of a three- or four-year-old child, but not everyone has them around, it only lingers around Li Luming, Duan Ying and Yu Qinwen, as well as Li Hong, Xu Chen and Chao Qinghe.
Xu Lu also has footprints behind her, but they are larger, obviously left by an adult woman.
Liu Buhua couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "It seems that there are quite a few ghosts behind us tonight." β
Xie Yinxue also raised her eyebrows slightly, her eyes slid over the faces of Li Hong, Li Luming and her party, but she didn't say anything, only said softly: "Go back to sleep first, I have already helped you relight the three fires on your body, don't look back this time." β
Listening to Xie Yinxue's words, everyone stopped walking alone, and they all got closer to the rest of the team, and after more than ten minutes, they finally returned to the village house.
Min Yuandan had already walked back, and lit the lamp in the house, and when he saw that everyone was late, he scolded again: "Come back and sleep so slowly, what's the matter with you?" Did you encounter a ghost hitting the wall? β
Everyone is now very sensitive to the word "ghost", and always feels that there is a yin wind that has also jumped into the village house with Min Yuandan's words.
Li Luming grabbed Yu Qinwen's arm and said, "Wenwen, let's go back to the house and sleep." β
"Hmm." Yu Qinwen responded, didn't dare to stay in the lobby longer, and hurriedly entered the bedroom with Li Luming.
Li Hong still hugged Liu Buhua's thigh and lived in the same room with him, Ying Yishui still lived with Xu Lu, although Duan Ying and Xu Chen had an awkward quarrel, they had no intention of sleeping in separate rooms, but Liao Xinyang didn't have the courage to sleep alone anymore, and wanted to find someone to live in the same room.
However, there were ghost footprints around him on the way back from Chao Qinghe, and Liao Xinyang was afraid that he would be targeted by the ghost if he was too close to him, so he didn't consider him; As for Lu Ling and Bu Jiuzhao...... The expressions of these two people were indifferent, and there was an aura of "don't approach the living" all over their bodies, and Bu Jiuzhao's face was more like writing the word "roll" directly, so in the end, Liao Xinyang could only turn his eyes for help to Xie Yinxue, who looked gentle and friendly.
He asked Xie Yinxue: "Mr. Xie, can I live in the same room with you?" I'm a little scared......"
Xie Yinxue had a shallow smile on her lips, but her words were not tactful at all: "I'm sorry, I don't like to live in the same room with others." β
Liao Xinyang was a little sneering: "That ......"
"You live with me." Lu Ling hugged his arm and interrupted him, "Come over quickly, I'm going to sleep." β
"Thank you, thank you!" Liao Xinyang's eyes suddenly lit up, and he thanked him repeatedly and followed Lu Ling's footsteps.
As for the rest of the people, they naturally live in one room each.
Xie Yinxue slowly stepped into the house with her hands in her hands, then turned to face the door, and closed the door.
Xie Yinxue never takes off his coat when he sleeps outside of home, he will only take off his shoes, put them on the side of the bed in a regular manner, and then lie down and begin to close his eyes and rest.
Unfortunately, not long after falling asleep, Xie Yinxue suddenly heard a slight sound of footsteps.
It appears in the doorway and gradually approaches the edge of the bed.
Xie Yinxue opened her eyes suddenly, but there was nothing in the room.
It was about six o'clock in the morning, and the sun had not yet risen, but through the half-open window, Xie Yinxue saw that the sky was already white, and the white candles on the round table in the room were still burning, and the light was bright and warm, illuminating the inside of the house at the same time, but also shining a flickering figure outside the house.
The figure was a little strange, if I had to describe it, it looked like a woman with a hijab - much like the ghost in the red wedding dress described by Xu Lu.
Did the female ghost follow them back to the village house?
Xie Yinxue stood up straight on the bed, and when she wanted to go down to the ground, she found that the shoes she had placed on the edge of the bed before going to bed were missing.
So Xie Yinxue walked to the door barefoot and cold, opened the door and looked at the courtyard.
There were no people with hijabs in the courtyard, only Xu Chen, who walked from the direction of the toilet with a candle, he didn't notice Xie Yinxue, probably because he was a little nervous to go to the toilet alone, he trotted back to the room where the door was not closed, and then kicked the door shut without looking back.
But because he didn't look back, Xu Chen didn't see that the door of his room didn't close immediately after he kicked it, but stopped when it was about to closeβas if it was blocked by a hand, and opened a distance that allowed a person to enter, and then it closed again.
Xie Yinxue couldn't help but raise her eyebrows when she saw this.
He usually doesn't open his yin and yang eyes, because some ghosts are too stumbling, and Xie Yinxue doesn't want to see them affect his mood, so he only opens his yin and yang eyes when he needs to.
However, even if he didn't open his yin and yang eyes on the scene he saw just now, Xie Yinxue could see that there was a "dirty thing" that followed Xu Chen into the house.
And after returning to the village house, Xu Chen was not the only one who encountered dirty things, and he also encountered it.
Because they have all committed some folk taboos - when they enter the house and close the door, they have their backs to the door; Before going to bed, shoes are neatly placed next to the bed.
If you don't look at the door when you enter the house, you won't be able to know if anything dirty is following you into the house.
And if the shoes are too neatly placed and placed next to the bed, they may be worn by ghosts at night, so it is best to swing the shoes around, or in one opposite direction. But remember not to point the toes of your shoes at the head of the bed, otherwise you will ...... A ghost will go to bed with you.
Xie Yinxue is not afraid of evil and never pays attention to these, but this copy seems to pay special attention to these taboos, and if you don't pay attention to it, you will be targeted by ghosts.
This is not?
His shoes were stolen.
Xie Yinxue sighed softly, and finally walked to Xu Chen and Duan Ying's house and knocked on the door.
Probably no one slept deeply that night, so Xie Yinxue only knocked on the door three times, and the door of the two of them was opened.
"Mr. Xie." Duan Ying and Xu Chen were both standing at the door, and they were stunned for a moment when they saw that it was Xie Yinxue who came, "It's so late, is there something wrong?" β
"I saw something coming into your house." Xie Yinxue said directly, "I think it's best for you to sleep in another room." β
Duan Ying frowned, looking at a loss, and said in disbelief: "How could it be...... We're shut. β
Xu Chen said: "I just got up to go to the toilet. β
"Why didn't you call me?" Duan Ying immediately turned to look at Xu Chen and asked him, "Didn't we say that if anyone wants to get up at night, they must wake up the other party?" β
"I see you're sleeping soundly, and now it's almost dawn, so I think you'll be fine." Xu Chen explained, "It's not that I didn't call you, I pushed you twice, and you didn't wake up, so I wanted you to sleep more before going by yourself." β
Xu Chen did push Duan Ying.
But Duan Ying didn't wake up, he sat up and pushed open the door to look outside, and found that the sky was already glowing with white light, and he saw that there was a person in white shoes on the other side of the toilet who had just entered, Xu Chen thought that since he was not the only one who went to the toilet, there was no need to ask Duan Ying to get up to accompany him, so he went directly into the toilet alone.
The village house provided to them by Qingfeng Village is quite large, the toilets are divided into men and women, and there are two pits on one side, separated by a low wall in the middle, and those who enter can see the whole picture of the toilet at a glance.
However, after Xu Chen entered, he didn't see any other figures.
All he saw was a pair of white shoes neatly arranged at the toilet doorβthe one he had seen before leaving the house.
Xu Chen was so frightened that he didn't even go to the toilet and ran back to the house, and only felt more at ease after lying down next to Duan Ying, but within a few minutes, Xie Yinxue came and knocked on their door and told him: Something followed him into the house.
"It's not that you don't want to wake me up, you don't take what I say to heart."
Duan Ying couldn't listen to Xu Chen's explanation, shook her head and said with a wry smile: "You didn't close the door when you went out, didn't you think that when you left, something would come in?" And at that time I was still asleep in the house, I didn't know anything. β
Xu Chen frowned and continued to defend himself: "I said, everyone is tired tonight, I just want you to have a good rest." β
Xie Yinxue was not interested in watching the little couple quarrel, and she should have reminded her, so when she heard this, she turned around and went back to the room, not caring about what Xu Chen and Duan Ying were arguing about.
This time, until dawn, there were no more moths.
And because I stayed up too late last night, everyone slept until three o'clock in the morning before getting up.
Yu Qinwen and Li Luming woke up and knocked on Duan Ying's door, but after knocking for a long time, it was next door that opened the door, and the two looked at Duan Ying who was standing at the door and said strangely: "Ah Ying, why did you change the house, didn't you live here last night?" β
"If you can't get used to living in that room, let's change it." Duan Ying's eyes were blue, and she pulled the corners of her lips, but she couldn't even hold up a reluctant smile.
Yu Qinwen and Li Luming saw that she was in a bad mood, and she didn't really want to mention the change of room, so they didn't ask any more questions, and after eating some porridge and cakes casually in the village house, everyone was driven to the village square by Min Yuandan, and continued to recite the lines and familiarize themselves with the play.
"You guys went wrong last night, you must practice today, and the official performance will be in two days, if something goes wrong at that time, I can't save you!"
Min Yuandan was holding a thin stick in his hand, although he didn't use it to beat people, he waved it with a "rustle" sound, which was very deterrent.
But everyone was a little absent-minded - everyone was still thinking about Yang Ruolan and Xue Sheng, thinking about how to meet them.
After all, what Xie Yinxue said yesterday makes sense, whether they want to help him complete this marriage smoothly or get in the way of it, after all, it still depends on the original intention of the bride and groom.
Lu Ling gathered everyone together again during the break and said his plan: "The Xue family's side is not very easy, it is too difficult to meet Xue Sheng, but it is easier to go to the Yang family to meet Yang Ruolan." Our soldiers are divided into two ways, one group of people attracts the attention of Yang Ruowen and Yang Ruoming, and the other group of people can go over the wall and go in to find Yang Ruolan directly. β
"This will do." Liao Xinyang also thinks that this method is feasible, "Then which of us will go over the wall, and which ones will attract the attention of Yang Ruowen and Yang Ruoming?" β
Xie Yinxue took the initiative to speak and said softly: "I'll go over the wall." β
This is also a matter of no choice, it is a matter of customs clearance clues, Xie Yinxue feels that it is unreliable to let others go to see Yang Ruolan, and it is the right way to see it with her own eyes.
It's just that Lu Ling and Liao Xinyang are not familiar with Xie Yinxue, and they see that he is thin and has a noble demeanor, like those young masters who don't touch the spring water with ten fingers, and not like a rough person who can easily climb over the wall, so they said: "Find someone to accompany you." β
Xie Yinxue didn't object, he opened his lips and was about to say that he would let Liu Buhua go with him.
Then I heard a deep voice beside me say, "Me." β
Lu Ling immediately clenched his fists and clapped his hands: "Then you can accompany Xie Yinxue." β
Bu Jiuzhao's proposal is in the middle of Lu Ling's arms, because Bu Jiuzhao has too few words, if they want to attract the attention of Yang Ruoming and Yang Ruowen, they have to find someone who talks a lot to entangle them, what is the use of Bu Jiuzhao, who can't make a sound with three sticks?
So Lu Ling didn't say a word, and made a decision directly: "We are pressed for time, Min Yuandan doesn't know when he will come back, take advantage of his absence now, hurry up!" β
With that, the group rushed towards the Yang family.
Xie Yinxue and Bu Jiuzhao changed directions and went around to the back wall of the Yang family to separate from everyone.
