The contents of my grandmother's phone calls are still the same. Have you had a good meal recently? are you full? Did you lose weight again
In the past, Lan He often said that when he was full, he just looked thin. But now he can finally say with great confidence: I'm full!
Grandma was very satisfied with this answer, and then asked if she was looking for someone? Lan He was young, but in her grandmother's opinion, it was time to find someone, and there was no sign of her personal problems being resolved.
Even Lan He's mother said, is there anyone in the crew who likes you? If not, go back home and take you on a blind date.
"Mom, what are you talking about?" Lan He was just focusing on her career. She ran around for auditions in her spare time.
When it comes to good feelings, there is indeed something vaguely floating in his heart, but this hazy feeling, even he can't accurately capture it, just prevaricates, "I'm busy with work, I'll talk about it when I'm free."
After chatting for a while, he hung up. Not long after Lan He finished the phone call, Chen Xingyu's video also called.
She knew that Lan He had returned from the crew and wanted to invite Lan He to be a guest at her house. The two made an appointment before Lan He packed her luggage and wanted to cut her bangs by the way.
Since the filming of "Treasure", his bangs have covered his eyes, and the character styling in "Chasing" will comb his hair back, which is usually put down and covers his eyes.
But when he was holding the scissors, he heard what seemed to be a sound outside the door.
rustling... rustling...
It was like, like a worm crawling through—not one, but many, many, scrambling across the wall, making a sour sound.
Lan He walked to the door and glanced at the cat's eyes, only to see that it was pitch black outside and couldn't see anything.
What the hell, who covered my cat's eyes
While Lan He was wondering, the black color disappeared again, or, in other words, crawled away—
Countless spiders and centipedes were lying on the wall outside the door, blocking the lights in the hallway and the cat's eyes for a while.
Vomit, Lan He is a little sick.
Is the next door refining Gu? The movement is too big!
Lan He began to hesitate whether to call the property, or not, it seemed that he was very unscientific. If he wanted to call, he had to listen to Ying Shaoxian to sell Amway, and both choices had to be played out.
Lan He was only annoyed for a while, but the bugs seemed to have finally found some way. A spider came in through the crack of the door and planted its head on his shoe. It was as big as half a palm, and its long, slender limbs supported its huge belly, and because of its size, it was able to clearly see the eight dark eyes scattered on its head and chest, as well as the slender limbs on its limbs. hair.
After Lingding's limbs moved a few times, the appendages stepped on Lan He's instep where the slippers were exposed. He could almost feel the fine bristles on the spider's limbs brushing on his skin due to the bouncing action...
"Hey!" Lan He felt that his scalp was about to explode, and he had goose bumps all over his body. Without thinking, he took a few steps back and kicked his legs so hard that the slippers were kicked away, and the spider flew out. Fortunately, he moved fast, and when he flew out, he saw the spiders spit venom on his slippers.
- Originally, when Lan He saw Gu worms coming in, he wondered if Ying Shao wanted him to believe and sent them on purpose. But the spider spit venom, he is not sure, Ying Shao has big eyebrows, not like that kind of person.
It was only the second one. After one broke through, other Gu worms rushed in one after another, covering the floor and walls, covering the original beige wallpaper into black and brown.
Lan He wanted to vomit, so she rushed into the room with bare feet, and even thought about it distractedly, how could Ying Shao be able to support so many worms when he looked so poor? This is so different from the story my grandmother told. How many worms can a Gu Master raise? Did Ying Shao run a farm? !
Lan He didn't turn his head or looked under his feet. He was afraid that he would step on something anytime, anywhere, and it would not explode in an instant. Almost rushed to the room at the fastest speed in life, opened the suitcase and took out two paper bags, which were the nails of Miss Hu and Hu Qijiu.
Lan He once rejected Miss Hu and Hu Qiujiu, but the moment he really saw Gu insect, he wanted to thank these two foxes and thank them for life.
Lan He didn't even catch his breath. As soon as he grasped these two things, the rustling sound that was overwhelming outside became much clearer and smaller for a while, as if a buff had been added.
He walked out of the room and looked again. There were no dense insects. There was only a spider and a centipede lying on the ground. The spider's two limbs rubbed and rubbed on its chest, and the centipede with its forearm was also swimming.
But now their movements of shaking their heads and tails, in Lan He's view, are just bluffs.
Of course, just like this was enough to make Lan He disgusted, especially the spider stomped on it with several eyes and was still rubbing his hands, making his hair stand on end, hating his eyesight deeply.
Lan He retreated to the corner, and the two Gu insects were also afraid of the fingernails in his hand that vaguely exuded the scent of the fox fairy, and slowly approached.
"Which one do you want to choose?" Lan He asked in disgust, holding two paper bags. "If you don't tell me, then I will help you choose."
Obviously, Miss Hu's attack power is higher, and she can kill chickens with a butcher's knife. Lan He threw off Hu Qijiu's nails and burned them a little. She wanted to wait for the nails to grow on her right hand. It's slowly growing fluff...
Lan He: "??"
In the blink of an eye, his right hand became a hairy claw, like wearing a glove, and the nails were still correct, but they didn't look as fierce, especially after he tried to retract the nails into the paw pads...
Lan He understood for a moment, this is the claws that Hu Qijiu used to rub Liu Dao's stomach, and what she gave was mainly the ability to cure diseases.
At the same time, Lan He also felt that his sense of smell was sharper... Ah, I have become stronger and hairier, Lan He thought. He carefully distinguished, and found that the taste of these two Gu worms is not the same as the Gu ghost next door, and it does not seem to be the same owner.
In this way, although the farm is fake, it's not Ying Shao's trouble, Lan He thought, that he was right about his neighbors.
The two Gu insects had already crawled in front of them, and Lan He could see it more clearly. The spider Gu mouths were open, and they could spit out Gu Qi at any time. They are all biting each other, and the one that remains is the most poisonous.
Lan He was born in Hunan Province, and has heard many legends about Gu insects, but his grandmother generally called the release of the gu as a "grass-free ghost", and most of the people who raised the gu in the Miao Village were grass ghosts. Even grandma herself, because she lived in Miao Village for a long time, would cure some minor problems - Miao Village has 3,000 Miao medicines, 800 single prescriptions, and there are also herbal medicines that are said to be able to relieve Gu Qi. Grandma said that she used traditional recipes to remove Gu Qi s story.
He grew up in a city himself, and it was the first time he saw a Gu worm with his own eyes. The first time he was disgusted, it seemed that being a Gu Master requires great perseverance.
Lan He endured the discomfort and stretched out his hand, or in other words, stretched out his claws, and caught the spider Gu very keenly, and then held down the centipede with his backhand. Mao's paws covered them and chanted incantations: "The golden rooster in the sky croaks, the grass rooster in the ground croaks, the two chickens together, eat the filth of the worms and snakes in the world..."
I saw two worms slumped in his palms, the Gu Qi dissipated, and they slowly degenerated into ordinary worms.
"Go, catch the mosquitoes." Lan He flicked the spider out, and put the centipede in the empty wine bottle. He remembered that his grandmother said that the big centipede could not be caught in the city to make wine...
After finishing the two Gu worms, Lan He breathed a sigh of relief and rushed to wash his feet.
Lan He strongly suspected that these Gu insects, like the previous Specter Ghosts, had gone the wrong way. After all, there should be a Gu Master in this building.
Gu worms also have a bad sense of direction. Although the two rooms are of the same type, their orientations are opposite. He decided to put the house number on the door in the future, otherwise he would always be mistaken.
And just because of these things, he felt a little uneasy. If there is any ghost Gu in the future, and he leaves his soul again, what should he do with his body
Because he still had the ability of Hu Qijiu, Lan He immediately thought of a way. He took out the paper he had asked for from Police Officer Wang before, and there were a few left, and put it on the inside of the door and window: "People come to separate the paper, ghosts. Come to the next mountain, Qianxie can't get it out, Wanxie can't get it out!"
After the curse, Lan He accepted the law.
"Hmm..." Lan He thought about it, and washed Mao's claws with hand sanitizer and dried them before accepting the law. To be honest, if it wasn't for his reason, he would want to drop an external dewormer when he saw Mao. .
Then I washed my real hands again, otherwise I would always feel weird that my hands would be used to eat. After dealing with these uninvited guests, Lan He lay down peacefully, her soul leaving her body.
I just resolved another matter for Ying Shao, and now it's time to eat again, can you not ask Ying Shao to grab something to eat
…
A district in Beijing.
Lou Ye and the Qiandi Gu Master, whom he had known for several years, were drinking and laughing, chatting about what he had done recently, and suddenly became a little worried: "Ying Shao is stunned, and his arrogance is very fierce, if he loses, he won't Come on, let the fish die and the net break, how are you, brother?"
The Gu Master spat, scolded in Miao language, and said with a contemptuous smile, "He is a yellow-haired boy who has only raised Gu for a few years. These are the spider Gu and centipede Gu that I have cultivated for a long time, but he wants to break… "
Before he finished speaking, he suddenly felt that his heart was empty, and the whole person was stunned.
The grandfather asked, "What's wrong?"
Only then did the Gu Master let out a scream: "Ying Shao—"
…
"Ha Chi!" Ying Shao sneezed and rubbed his nose, "It smells so good!"
He was making a pot of bibimbap with shiitake mushrooms and mashed potatoes with his two junior brothers. He was poor, and he didn't buy too much meat. The potatoes were already stewed to a soft powder, and the diced mushrooms and mashed meat were colored yellow sauce. Shallots add color to it again, the soup is immersed in the rice, and it is mixed a little to make it more uniform, and the aroma is mixed with the heat and steamed up.
The younger brother is sending a message to his father: "Dad, you don't need to pay me, I'm fine, I'm going to eat bibimbap with mashed potatoes and mushrooms tonight, it's delicious..."
In the heat, a shadow appeared in front of him, so frightened Ying Shao hurriedly put down his spoon, "Come, come master?"
"Well, I passed by here and caught a few worms." Lan He tentatively said, "But it has something to do with you?"
"I didn't release Gu." Ying Shao said without hesitation, "We didn't release it." There is no business, let's release hair Gu.
This Lan He knew that he didn't put it there, just to elicit the following words, "Well, that's for you? Otherwise, why would he be wandering around here."
"Could it be that it's Lord Lou..." Ying Shao didn't offend many people, so he immediately suspected Zhengzhu, "We did offend people, but he didn't raise the gu... Uh, could it be the person he was looking for? So Are those Gu worms taken away by Lord Lai now?"
"Well, no thanks." Although he said so, Lord Lai's eyes were fixed on their bibimbap.
For a while, I didn't prepare fragrant flowers and fruits for offering, and Lord Lai's eyes were so fiery, Ying Shao was silent for 30 seconds in hunger. Would you like some bibimbap…”
He is very happy to be able to climb impermanence, and for this, he will spare no expense.
"Okay." Lan He connected it almost immediately, "I don't need the spoon, I just use the pot."
Ying Shao: "..."
With the owner's permission, Lan He ate a big pot of bibimbap.
The younger brother bowed his head silently and changed his WeChat: Dad, give me two hundred yuan, I may eat roasted gluten tonight...
"It tastes good." Lan He said with satisfaction after eating, "Then I'll go first, you guys take it slow."
Ying Shao wiped away his tears and had to be grateful: "Okay, Laiye, thank you Laiye."
It's all gone, Lan He didn't know what to think, suddenly he didn't want to waste it, and decided to float to Juehui Temple.
... Is Xiao Song still in Juehui Temple? Only half or even a third of his name is known.
She had been wearing a hat before, but today Lan He just wanted to play with Xiao Song, so she simply folded the hat and uniform and put it away. The uniform this ghost was wearing was naturally made of paper. He pondered to scare Xiao Song - this time, he didn't know if he could scare him. The last time Xiao Song thought it was a dream.
Lan He drifted all the way to the direction of Juehui Temple, and the orientation of Juehui Temple was still a bit biased, and there were few pedestrians when he saw it.
"Dudu-"
The horn sounded, Lan He turned around and saw that it was a colorful bus.
000 Road.
…
Zhou Huiqin is an employee of an Internet company. She floats in the capital and often works overtime. Every time she gets busy, the pressure is even greater. In order to save money, the house she rented was far from the company, and she had to take the subway and then go back by bus every day.
Zhou Huiqin usually commutes to get off work with her colleagues who live with her, but these two days her colleagues have taken leave to go home, so she can only act alone.
It was too late to work overtime today. When I got out of the subway, there was no one on the road. Zhou Huiqin stood by the roadside waiting for the bus. From time to time, I opened the app to refresh the real-time bus information to see how long it took for the nearest 414 road to reach this stop.
"Huh... I'm so sleepy." Zhou Huiqin murmured, not only so sleepy, but also so tired, working overtime these days has taken her spirits away, and she's also extremely unlucky. She made several small mistakes at work today.
"Dudu."
A bus appeared in the field of vision. There were so many people on it that the number of roads was unclear. Zhou Huiqin rubbed his eyes, um, it was the 414th road. She reached out to stop her, and a few seconds before the bus stopped in front of her, an idea flashed in her mind:
Two or three minutes ago, she looked at the bus app, and it showed that there were still ten minutes to the station... This trip seems to be a bit fast
Either the driver is racing, or the app is inaccurate. Although it is usually quite reliable, there is no bug in the program, right
Zhou Huiqin didn't take it to heart at all, let alone open the app to confirm, just got on the bus and swiped the QR code...
"Huh?" Zhou Huiqin found that the QR code could not be swiped, and the deduction was never displayed.
Driver: "Don't swipe if you can't do it. You won't be charged."
"No, no, I have cash." Zhou Huiqin looked at the driver, only a side face, and the voice seemed to be not the usual 414 driver, and the driver had a hunched back with a bag bulging around his neck, looking like he was working It was a lot of effort, but the car drove smoothly and quickly.
But in a big city like Beijing, the flow of people is not common. If Zhou Huiqin doesn't take this bus one day, no one will care. Zhou Huiqin just took a second glance at the driver's appearance, and felt that life was not easy, so she took out the money and threw it into the coin box, turned around and walked to the back of the carriage.
Ah, today's 414... It seems a little crowded, like a moving company has come up.
Zhou Huiqin looked around, and there were TVs, safes and other furniture and appliances on many seats, and even large refrigerators and washing machines. So the few places left were crowded with passengers, and the top light was not bright enough. In the dim light, everyone bowed their heads slightly, a car full of urban bowheads.
Zhou Huiqin thought about it for a while. Just now, the driver said that he would not charge her money. He would not move to a private bus because he used the public equipment for private use today.
She was standing next to a refrigerator, and there was a man holding the refrigerator next to her, probably from a moving company. Zhou Huiqin couldn't help but take a second glance, because the man was quite handsome.
It's a pity that the other party kept his head halfway down and didn't react at all to her scorching gaze. Zhou Huiqin was not so outgoing, and he was too tired, so he could only withdraw his gaze angrily.
Mu Ran stood for a long while, Zhou Huiqin stared at the window and moved her eyes. She takes this bus every day, and the route is very familiar. She should have turned left at the intersection just now, but why did the driver take another fork in the road.
Zhou Huiqin couldn't help shouting: "Master, you drove wrong!"
Driver: "That's right."
Zhou Huiqin was so frightened that she quickly raised her head to confirm, "No, this is Route 414, Master, this route hasn't changed. The terminal should be Quanfu Square."
Driver: "No."
Zhou Huiqin suddenly stopped talking. She wanted to continue arguing with the driver, but she suddenly found that the passengers in the car were silent and did not seem to respond to the route at all.
Or, since she got in the car, the passengers didn't respond. It's just that she has been in a trance and didn't pay too much attention. Now that I think about it, they are too quiet.
At first, she thought that everyone was tired so late, and it was nice to be quiet on the bus, but these people not only didn't talk, they didn't play with their phones. It's just that everyone keeps their heads bowed slightly, and even the angles seem to be exactly the same.
Zhou Huiqin shut her mouth, panicked after realizing this, and cold sweat leaked out a little bit. She looked at the man next to him who was holding the refrigerator.
She suddenly felt that the whole car was eerily silent...
In retrospect, the worst thing was the driver... With so many people in the car, he didn't shout "Go in, it's still empty" after the new passenger got on! !
I don't know where I'm driving now, and the road around is getting darker and darker. Zhou Huiqin grabbed the pillar hard and wanted to speak and tell the driver to stop, but at this moment, she seemed to be overwhelmed by fear, unable to breathe, and she was afraid that the silence would be broken. , there will be more horrific consequences, both options are deadly.
Zhou Huiqin glanced forward, the driver's crooked face appeared in the rearview mirror, and the corner of his mouth seemed to have a faint smile.
Haha... Zhou Huiqin took a deep breath, her legs were so soft that she couldn't stand, but at this moment, the bus stopped suddenly, she fell and sat on the ground, her knees hurt.
Car stopped? Zhou Huiqin tried to get up and wanted to take the opportunity to get out of the car, but the back door didn't open, and after another person came on the front door, it closed immediately and the car started again!
"I want to get out of the car..." Zhou Huiqin finally couldn't take it anymore and whimpered.
The driver said coldly: "I haven't arrived at the station yet."
The people who got on the bus just now also squeezed into the compartment: "Little girl, where are you going?"
Zhou Huiqin took two steps back and looked at each other. He seemed to look more normal than the others, at least not with his head down and wearing a mask, revealing only a pair of beautiful warm brown eyes.
Could it be that he came up by mistake? Zhou Huiqin stopped retreating, choked and said, "Get out of the car, get out of the car, this car... these people..."
As soon as the other party stretched out his hand, he supported her, perhaps because his eyes were too beautiful, Zhou Huiqin didn't hide, and while feeling the other party's cold fingers, he also heard him say in a hurry: "Only large or placed in the The heads of the people who are stuck in high places are placed at an inclination of thirty degrees downward, which is for the convenience of people to watch."
Zhou Huiqin took a cold breath, and the paper, the paper stuck people...
The driver also laughed: "Yes, little beauty, you are the only one in this car. The terminal station, Hanjun Cemetery!"
So he's a ghost too? Zhou Huiqin looked at the cold hand on his wrist and looked into his eyes again, almost fainting.
"Don't get dizzy yet, I'm here to help others." Lan He supported the girl hard and said to the driver, "Please turn around and take the girl back to the exit first."
He was looking at the car from the side of the road. It was wrong. A car was wrapped in paper, and the driver was just a ghost. They might have been transporting furniture back. Why was there a stranger who stopped the car at that time.
When the driver heard Lan He say this, he was very angry, "I kindly give you a ride, what nonsense are you talking about here."
Lan He calmly said, "I want to ask you, why are you tricking her into getting in the car?"
I don’t know if it’s because of what Miss Hu said. The city seems to be getting more and more chaotic. He has lived in the capital for a few years. Although he is more careful not to go to sparsely populated places, it was really rare in the past few years. encounter such a thing. Yan San has said that the capital is densely populated with high-level people. On average, each community can be allocated one. The general chaos will be solved before he finds it.
The driver simply stepped on the brakes, stopped, and said with a smile: "Who lied to her, she stopped the car by herself, and I will transport my goods by myself."
Lan He said: "Since it's wrong, let her go down."
The driver sneered, "I think, since you're here, go and accompany me. With so many friends, let's have a party together."
Friends, are these paper stickers? Lan He still finds it strange that his grandfather is a clothes maker. He knows how many paper sticks he will buy for a funeral, especially if such a large piece of paper sticks are made exquisitely, one pair is enough, "These are all yours. Is it?"
"Of course not, it was stolen, what's wrong?" The driver was quite righteous and rubbed the big bag on his neck.
-Why did you hide paper money to make it before, or the owner chiseled it himself on the spot, because the chisel was placed there, and it was easy to be taken away by ghosts and gods. Lonely souls and wild ghosts will steal them, and the gods of the underworld will even confiscate them.
Therefore, before burning things for relatives, they should read or write their names, and at funerals, they should also burn paper money after offering incense, otherwise the deceased will not receive it.
Zhou Huiqin touched her upper teeth against her lower teeth and kept rattling. She couldn't help leaning towards Lan He. She was quite scared at first, but now it was obvious that only this ghost was helping her.
But at this moment, the hunchbacked driver said quietly: "I just want to take you to a party, do you know what he wants to take you out of?".
Zhou Huiqin's face stiffened.
The driver chuckled: "Look at this guy, he doesn't even dare to show his face, maybe he died so miserably, you will die in the same way as him, for the ghost..."
The driver who looks like a wicked person, and the young man who looks kind-hearted, for some reason, Zhou Huiqin actually thinks the latter is more terrifying. Is it true that the more dangerous things need to be disguised, in order to deceive people? She subconsciously raised her head and glanced at Lan He who was wearing a mask. What was under the mask... The more she thought about it, the more frightened she became, and she screamed and shook off Lan He's hand.
"Don't be afraid, he scare you, the more afraid you are, the lower your anger!" Lan He warned.
"Do you dare to get out of the car and follow him? Look outside..." The driver said sensibly.
outside? There was no light outside. Zhou Huiqin can't believe the two now, he just feels that there are wolves in front and tigers behind.
The driver saw that she no longer believed in Lan He, and was still fanning the flames: "The more harmless it looks, the more terrifying it is. Little girl, come over soon, I can take you back... "
His tone was full of temptation. Zhou Huiqin looked at him and felt that her mentality had completely collapsed. How could she choose! She burst into tears: "Can you let me go!"
…
Lan He was speechless and put down the chains wrapped around his sleeves.
The driver's eyes froze for a while: "??"
Zhou Huiqin looked at the chain and didn't react, and cried, "What are you doing!"
Lan He then took out the thin uniform, swung it into shape, put it on his body, put on the tall hat, and was fully equipped, which instantly conformed to the traditional image to ensure that anyone could recognize it at a glance, "What a mess, I'm just an ordinary righteous criminal who passes by here after get off work. Do you believe in him or me now?"
Zhou Huiqin: "… "
driver:"… … … "
The author has something to say: Lan He: The trial pack is really fragrant! I don't want to wear formal clothes, I want to keep stocking up on trial clothes!
