Gu Yuanwai glanced up at Zhuo Yi, and then turned his head to look at the housekeeper Zhang Lao suspiciously.

Zhang Lao hurriedly introduced: "Oh, these are the two guests who came today, and they are staying for a night." ”

"Oh," Gu Yuanwai calmed down and said, "Okay, it's good if someone comes." ”

This Gu Yuan looked a lot more relieved when he saw someone coming to borrow it. He looked at Zhuo Yi and Ji Li again and said apologetically: "I frightened the two of you." ”

Zhuo Yi smiled and said, "Where, we are grateful for the willingness of the staff to take it in." I just saw someone who seemed frightened, was it a nightmare? I did know from a friend that I didn't know if it worked. ”

"Oh, this boy has encountered such a thing before?" Gu Yuanwai said with some joy.

It's just that they didn't notice a sneer of disdain flashing in the child's eyes.

Zhuo Yi said: "I have encountered it, but I don't know if it is effective, and I need to tell me the symptoms to judge." ”

Gu Yuanwai was also tortured enough, so he directly took Zhuo Yi's hand and said, "As long as you can get rid of this nightmare for me, I am willing to give it a hundred taels of gold." ”

When the boy heard this, the corners of his mouth twitched a few times, as if he was cutting his flesh, but he didn't seem to believe that Zhuo Yi could cure Gu Yuan, and he put his mind at ease.

Gu Yuanwai grabbed Zhuo Yi and walked into the room, poured tea for Zhuo Yi and Ji Li, and asked with a smile: "I don't know the two noble surnames yet." ”

"Our surname is Zhuo, this is my little sister. Zhuo Yi took the lead and said that he had already agreed with Ji Li when he checked in.

"Oh, Zhuo Gongzi, Zhuo girl. What do you want to know?" said Gu Yuanwai.

Zhuo Yi looked at Gu Yuanwai and asked, "Yuanwai, how long have you been having this nightmare?"

"It's been almost a month. Gu Yuan said.

Zhuo Yi asked, "Did anything happen before this?"

Gu Yuanwai thought for a while and said, "It all starts with me taking a concubine. Just a month ago, I took a concubine, and since then strange things have happened a lot. ”

"Oh, what's the weird thing?" asked Zhuo Yi.

"At first, there was always a knock at the door at night, but when I opened the door, no one came. There were also people coughing outside, and I couldn't find anyone when I went to look for them. Slowly, I kept having nightmares, always dreaming that a ghost was coming to pinch me. Gu Yuanwai said.

"Oh, do you know that ghost?" asked Zhuo Yi.

Gu Yuanwai's body stiffened, his expression was a little unnatural, and then he said with a haha: "Ghost, where do I know." ”

Zhuo Yi saw that his eyes flickered, and he didn't want to ask too much, so he asked, "Do you think it's your concubine who caused all this?" ”

"Of course, since marrying her, there have been frequent strange things in the family, not her. Gu Yuanwai said as a matter of course.

"What about the concubine?" asked Zhuo Yi.

Gu Yuanwai said: "Where do I dare to keep her, give her some money, and send her away." ”

"What about after she's gone?" asked Zhuo Yi.

Gu Yuanwai sighed deeply and said, "She brought the ghost, but she didn't take it away, and the ghost didn't leave as if she thought of me." ”

Zhuo Yi nodded, and asked again, "Did you have any other reactions in your body after that?"

Gu Yuanwai thought for a while and said, "No." Oh, I seem to be in a bad mood and want to sleep. ”

Zhuo Yi pondered, and asked a little anxiously: "How is it?" Zhuo Gongzi, is there a way? I have also invited many exorcist wizards to come to the house to do it, but it is useless. ”

Zhuo Yi looked at Zhang Lao and asked, "Zhang Lao, do you feel this way?"

Old man Zhang nodded and said, "Exactly, I am like this too." ”

"What about this Gu Gongzi?" Zhuo Yi asked as he looked at the Gongzi.

That Gu Gongzi suddenly looked a little nervous, and then pretended to be relaxed and said, "I also have a slight one." ”

Zhuo Yi looked at Gu Yuanwai and said, "I want to ask you to call everyone in the mansion over." ”

Gu Yuanwai was also puzzled in his heart, turned his head to look at Zhang Lao and said, "Lao Zhang, you go and call everyone." ”

In a short time, everyone arrived.

Zhuo Yi looked at the others and asked, "Have you ever felt sleepy since you married that concubine?"

"Yes, that's what I am. ”

"Exactly. ”

After Zhuo Yi's inquiry, it was found that the vast majority of them said so, and only a few people were not obvious. And that part of the people usually stay outside the house a lot.

Zhuo Yi found that their symptoms were the same as those of himself and Ji Li, and the only things he and Ji Li came into contact with at first after entering here were those beautiful flowers and trees. There happened to be two such flowers and trees in the main house.

Zhuo Yi seemed to understand a little in his heart, but there were two other things he couldn't understand, so he asked, "Outside, is there still a knock on the door tonight?"

Gu Yuanwai said: "Yes, there was a knock on the door as soon as it was closed, and there was a cough not far outside. ”

"Then have you ever slept in another room?" Zhuo Yi continued.

"Yes, but the ghost seems to have followed me, and he will follow me wherever I go. Gu Yuanwai said with a sad face.

Zhuo Yi got up and looked at the door, and then went out to close the door, but found that there was a red liquid like blood in the corner of the door.

The boy had been paying attention to Zhuo Yi, and when he saw Zhuo Yi checking by the door, his expression suddenly became very nervous.

Zhuo Yi was puzzled, looked at the people in the house and said, "You are not allowed to come out, wait in the house." ”

"What are you, why should we listen to you?" said the boy suddenly.

Zhuo Yi stared at the son, and Gu Yuanwai also looked at the boy and said, "Cheng'er, don't be unreasonable, let's do what Mr. Zhuo said first." ”

When the boy saw the Gu man talking, he said, "Uncle, we are all in the room, and if he does anything unfavorable to us, it will not be good." ”

Zhuo Yi smiled and said, "My little sister also stays here, how about it?"

Ji Li wanted to agree, but Zhuo Yi gave her a look, so she had to agree.

Zhuo Yi closed the door again, but he stood outside the door and waited. After a while, just when Zhuo Yi was impatient, he suddenly noticed a few bats flying over.

But just then there was movement in the door, and the door was opened, and it was the boy who came out, and he said, "Okay, what the hell are you doing? ”

Zhuo Yi glanced at this son deeply, and suddenly nodded and said, "Okay." ”

Zhuo Yi walked into the room, looked at Gu Yuanwai and said, "Yuanwai, I can't do anything about this, and I don't know what's going on?"

When Gu Yuanwai heard Zhuo Yi say this, the hope that had finally risen in his heart was shattered again, and his face was full of sadness, and he looked much older.

When the boy heard Zhuo Yi's words, he was overjoyed.

Zhuo Yi took Ji Li back to the guest room to continue to rest.

On the second day, Zhuo Yi left the Gu family with Ji Li. After walking for a while except for Gujia Village, Zhuo Yi suddenly returned with Ji Li and stayed in a broken grass house.

Ji Li asked a little puzzled, "Why did you come back again?"

Zhuo Yi said, "Do you want to catch ghosts?"

Ji Li was stunned by Zhuo Yi's question, and after a while, he said with a weak and frightened expression: "Can this ghost catch?"

"Of course, do you want to catch it?" Zhuo Yi said.

Ji Li said hesitantly: "Or... Forget it?"

"Don't you want to know what a ghost looks like?" asked Zhuo Yi.

A terrifying image of a fluttering white dress, draped hair, and a long tongue suddenly appeared in Ji Li's mind. She shuddered, and shook her head into a rattle.

Zhuo Yi said: "Then you are going to miss a good show, forget it, you don't want to go, wait for me here tonight." ”

Ji Li heard Zhuo Yi say that he wanted to be here alone, looked around, and hurriedly said, "No, I don't want to be here alone, I'll go with you." ”

"That's right, don't worry, I'll protect you. I won't let you get caught by the ghosts. Zhuo Yi teased.

"Ahh

At night, Gu Yuanwai fell asleep early, and a person wearing a black robe with a big pocket tiptoed to the door of Gu Yuanwai, he took out a straw handle from the barrel, dipped something in the wooden barrel, and then brushed it on the door.

"If someone is really doing something, I want to see who you are?"

A voice sounded, startling the man. He looked up slightly and saw that it was Zhang Lao. However, he reacted quickly, threw the bucket towards Zhang Lao, and then ran to the side. But he didn't run a few steps, and then retreated a long way back.

It turned out that there were many housekeepers on all sides, and they forced the man back with sticks in their hands.

The man took off his pocket, looked at the crowd and said, "What are you doing?

The family members didn't know what was going on, but Zhang Lao asked them to guard the surroundings and not let anyone go, but now when they saw that it was their son, they were even more confused, and they didn't know what to do.

With a creak, the door opened, and it was Gu Yuanwai and Zhuo Yi who came out, followed by Ji Li.

Gu Gongzi looked at Gu Yuanwai who came out, and was shocked, but he still pretended to be calm and asked, "Uncle, you see that they want to rebel, and they actually besiege me with weapons." ”

Gu Yuanwai looked at Gu Gongzi, and said with pity and hatred in his eyes: "What are you doing here?"

"My nephew came to see my uncle, and my nephew was worried that you would have another nightmare, so I came to see my uncle. Gu Gongzi quibbled.

"Really, what are you doing with that thing?" said Gu Yuanwai, gesturing to the barrel. The liquid in the barrel spilled on the ground, some of it was viscous, it was blood.

Gu Gongzi's eyes rolled, and then he said: "Oh, this is the good prescription I asked today, as long as you apply this blood to the door, you can ward off evil spirits, and all evil spirits will not invade." ”

"Yes? It's really hard for you to be filial. Gu Yuan said with a smile on his face, and his tone was extremely cold.

"It should be, it should be. Gu Gongzi said with a smile.

"If you entertain you truthfully, I can spare you once. Gu Yuanwai looked at Gu Gongzi and said.

A smile froze on Gu Gongzi's face, and he said after a while, "I don't quite understand what Uncle said. ”

Gu Yuanwai sighed and said, "Master Zhuo, I'm sorry for you to explain." ”

Zhuo Yi smiled and pointed to the blood that fell to the ground and said, "This blood belongs to the eel, right?"

Gu Gongzi's eyes shrank slightly, and he didn't answer.

Zhuo Yi continued: "Last night, I heard Gu Yuanwai say that someone always knocked on the door, and when I checked the door again, I found that there were blood stains on the door, so I felt strange. I wanted to see what this ghost looked like, so I stayed there in the middle of the night without sleeping, only to find that a few bats were slamming against the door. I asked Gu Yuanwai to find out that it was exactly this kind of sound he heard a ghost knocking on the door. ”

Zhuo Yi grabbed a bat lying on the door.

"I see, we often see them lying on the door, but we haven't thought about them, and I didn't expect them to knock on the door. Zhang Lao said.

Zhuo Yi nodded and said, "If you don't see it with your own eyes, no one will think about them." I wonder how they slammed into this door?"

"Could it be this blood?" Ji Li said with a quick reaction.

"Well, that's the point. It's because of the eel's blood that I don't believe we can experiment. Zhuo Yi said.

When Gu Gongzi heard this, he also showed a look of sudden realization and said, "It turned out that it was this eel blood that attracted the bat to hit the door that made my uncle think it was a ghost." Damn wizard, how dare you lie to me. As he spoke, Gu Gongzi suddenly slapped himself twice, knelt down, and said with a look of remorse: "Uncle, I was deceived into thinking that this eel blood is to drive away evil spirits, and I really deserve to die." ”

"You said it so affectionately that I almost believed it. Zhuo Yi said.

"Oh, that's how the knock came from, what about the cough? We all heard it, could it be someone pretending?" asked Ji Li.

The rest of the people also looked at Zhuo Yi with a curious expression, and Zhuo Yi took out a thing, which was very small, and it was very dark at night and it was difficult to see clearly. It looks like an irregular black blocky object.

Zhuo Yi handed it to Zhang Lao, Zhang Lao took it, looked at it, sniffed it again, and finally licked it, and said, "Is this bacon?" After speaking, he handed the thing to the rest of the people to see.

The rest of the people took it in their hands and pinched it, sniffed it again, and said, "Yes, it's bacon." ”

Zhuo Yi said: "I picked up a lot of these pieces of meat in the coughing area, I don't know what the specific effect is, I don't know if Gu Gongzi is willing to solve my doubts?"

"How do I know?" Gu Gongzi looked angry, pretending not to know.

Zhuo Yi smiled: "I don't want to say no, everyone just saw you coming from there, and you scattered something there." If I'm not mistaken, it's supposed to be this meat fast, right?"

Gu Gongzi's expression suddenly became nervous when he heard this, he seemed to understand that it would be difficult to get away today, and suddenly rushed towards Gu Yuanwai. His steps were brisk, his kung fu was not low, his hands were claw-shaped, and he grabbed Gu Yuanwai's throat.

Gu Yuanwai was startled, and wanted to escape but was too late, so he stayed in place for a while, forgetting to move.

Zhuo Yi looked at Gu Gongzi and smiled disdainfully, and when Gu Gongzi was about to grab Gu Yuanwai, he suddenly grabbed Gu Gongzi's wrist, then twisted it, and then kicked it away. He didn't hit a heavy hand, he just kicked the opponent out of the air.

Gu Gongzi was kicked in the abdomen, and his abdomen was very uncomfortable for a while. The surrounding family members rushed up and tied him up.
