"Tonight, I will stay on the first floor to watch the night."
"Old man, Sun Yushu, you stay on the second floor and take care of the two old people inside."
boom!
The half-man-high knife box in Fangzheng's hand fell to the ground with a heavy sound, and there was a clang of gold and iron, which made the eyebrows of the old god stick and Sun Yushu twitch.
Isn't this a musical instrument
Why does it sound...as heavy as a solid block of iron
"Brother Fang, thank you... But, won't it be too hard for you to stay up all night like this? Why don't Brother Fang rest first, and I'll stay there for the rest of the night." Sun Yushu had a heart, and offered to share the burden for Fang Zheng.
But he didn't know that with Fangzheng's current physique, meditation could offset the sleep of ordinary people. Even if you stay up late for a night or two occasionally, it doesn't have much impact.
"No, if you really encounter a ghost, ordinary people's vigil won't be of much use." Fangzheng thanked him for his kindness.
"That ghost is not an earthbound spirit. If we keep hiding in the dark world like a cockroach, none of us will be able to find it."
"Now we can only wait until it takes the initiative to throw itself into the trap. If the ancestral hall collapsed because it was trying to force out your teacher, then it has succeeded now, and it will definitely come to your teacher again."
Afterwards, Fangzheng Dama Jindao sat on the first floor, holding the vertical knife case with one palm.
"Go to the second floor and take care of the two old people. If anything unusual happens, call immediately."
…
It is night, and the time is passing by every minute and every second.
The night was getting darker.
As Fangzheng said, the only thing they can do now is to sit back and wait.
People in the countryside go to bed early at night. Although the ancestral hall collapsed tonight, and the villagers discussed it for a while, they still couldn’t bear the sleepiness brought about by the dark night, and the villagers quickly took a rest.
Li Gaokang was woken up in the middle of the night by urinating, feeling his bladder was getting more and more painful, so he hurried out to pour water on the big tree at the door.
Today, I don't know what happened at home. The sewer was suddenly blocked and the toilet could not be used, so I had to solve it on the spot.
While turning on the water, Li Gaokang turned his head to look at Tao Wenguang's house, which was right across from his house.
It turned out that Tao Wenguang's house was brightly lit, and the lights on the first and second floors were always on. Li Gaokang can understand this. After all such a big thing happened, it is probably difficult for Tao Wenguang's family to sleep, right
Li Gaokang thought of the barking chickens and dogs recently, and thought of the chickens and dogs in the village also barking like crazy before the landslide tonight. This series of strange things happened, could it be that something evil entered the village
Rural people have always believed that black dogs and roosters can ward off evil spirits and see things that people cannot see.
like ghosts...
As soon as this word came to mind, Li Gaokang couldn't help but shuddered. He hurriedly stopped and continued to think, and secretly cursed himself for being sick.
Scaring myself at night.
His scalp was numb, as if he felt someone standing behind him, he quickly turned around to look behind him, but luckily there was nothing.
But at this moment, suddenly, the chickens and dogs in the countryside began to bark wildly. Li Gaokang was frightened immediately, he hurriedly solved it and prepared to go back to the house, but... slap, slap...
Li Gaokang had just taken a few steps when he suddenly heard footsteps following behind him.
Pat... Pat... He took a few more steps, and he heard it right, there were indeed footsteps following him behind him!
"Who is it!" Li Gaokang emboldened himself, turned around and shouted.
call!
It seemed that a gust of wind blew past, causing goose bumps to appear on the arms outside the short sleeves, and the hairs stood on end, but there was no one behind him.
But when Li Gaokang walked again, there was the sound of footsteps following behind him again, Li Gaokang's face turned pale, he didn't dare to look behind him, he just wanted to run home as soon as possible. But it is so close at hand, the brightly lit doorway seems to never end, no matter how you run, you can't reach the doorway, and the light and shadow are infinitely elongated.
call out! Snapped!
A copper coin was tossed and covered with a scarred palm.
"Guess, is it a word or a picture?"
Li Gaokang's face was pale and he saw that under the shadow of the old tree at the door, a strange person appeared at some point, his whole body was wrapped in a black windbreaker, and even his face was not exposed.
Li Gaokang was frightened, he suddenly remembered a rumor in the countryside,
If a person walks at night and hears footsteps behind him or someone calling his name, don't look behind him, as long as he looks back, he will blow out three fires, he... he is...
Li Gaokang desperately wanted to run, but he couldn't get out, and the strange man in the shadow seemed to be entangled with him, throwing copper coins again and again, repeating the same words: "Guess, is it a word or a picture? "
One is running non-stop,
One keeps repeating a sentence,
It's like a stuck video tape, repeating over and over again.
But at this moment, Mo Ran!
A knife case emitting scarlet light and wrapped with cinnabar ink thread suddenly fell from the sky, boom!
It hit the ground straight and hard, because the force was too great, and the knife box was embedded in the ground several centimeters.
Before the ghost hit the wall and shattered, Li Gaokang found out in horror that he thought he was running, but in fact he was rolling in the urine-stained mud where he was. At this moment, his face and body were covered with mud with a strong urine smell.
Li Gaokang fainted from fright on the spot.
"This is how you borrowed the sun?" There was a figure with a long black shadow dragged by the street lamp overhead, and it was Fang Zheng.
Shh~
Snapped!
A shiny white coin was thrown in the air, and then was covered by the palm of the right hand on the back of the left hand. Fangzheng looked at the weird man in the windbreaker hiding in the dark shadow like a cockroach in front of him, and imitated the other party and stretched out his palm and said with a smile: "Guess, Is it a word or a flower?"
However... Phew! Snapped!
"Guess, is it a word or a picture?" The weird man in the windbreaker in the dark shadows stretched out his scarred palm, and this time he was the one who was speaking.
Phew, snap, after Fangzheng caught the coin, he held out his hand: "Guess, is it a word or a flower?"
call out! Snapped! A pair of bruised palms full of scars was handed to Fangzheng: "Guess, is it a word or a picture?"
…
"Guess, is it a word or a flower?"
"Guess, is it a word or a picture?"
Under the shade of an old tree, there are two figures throwing coins at each other over and over again, one is hidden in the dark shadow, and the other is standing under the light in the middle of the road.
one for darkness,
One is light.
In this way, the two weirdos kept at a stalemate in the middle of the night, tossing coins over and over again, and handing out their palms, asking each other to guess pros and cons.
two minutes, three minutes...
In this stalemate cycle, Fangzheng always had a playful smile on his face.
It seemed that the game was about to continue... The window on the second floor of Tao Wenguang's house was pushed open, and the head of the old magic stick was poked out, and the expression on Ruju's face was like that of a boudoir, and he shouted depressingly: "Little brother, you are haunted! "
"I agreed to go out to the bathroom, but I didn't answer for a long time. I didn't expect you to run across the street and play a small game with someone in the middle of the night? Who is that person?"
