I don’t know if the real method worked, or because I bought something. This time I finally collected some information. Although vague, it can at least prove that there are spells in this small town, and one of them is getting older. The old man also enthusiastically gave me directions.
"Hey, I said why you disappeared when I walked. It turned out to be lazy hiding here! Get up, let's go shopping over there." I was chatting happily with the old man, Li Xiaorou holding a bunch of things I got it back and stared at me angrily.
I had to stand up with a smile, thanked the old man, and continued to go shopping with Li Xiaorou, secretly planning to wait for the middle of the night to check at the well that the old man said.
This tour lasted another two hours, until I walked around the ancient town, Li Xiaorou gave up with satisfaction, took me back to the hotel she had booked, and wanted to take me to chat, but I hurriedly assumed that I had booked it. On the excuse of leaving the room, he threw things away and ran out.
I didn't go directly to check the well, so I found a homestay near the well and opened a room.
First set the alarm clock and take a nap. When it was still late at night, I sneaked out the door with the compass.
The street was already empty at this time, and even the lanterns had been extinguished. Only the streetlights at a distance still stood by the ancient town.
Along the street, I quickly found the ancient well that the old man said. Sure enough, I found an abnormality. Finally, I found a charm under the floor next to the well, which had exactly the same characteristics as the old Taoist explained in advance.
I quickly put the charm into my backpack, looked around, and confirmed that there was no one around, then carefully sneaked back into my room and lay down to rest.
The purpose of this visit was achieved, and I suddenly felt that the burden that was originally pressed on my body was missing, and I slept very sweetly.
The next day, in a daze, there was a rapid slamming of the door outside the door, and at the same time a woman shouting: "Mr. Hou! Mr. Hou! Are you inside, Mr. Hou?"
"What's the matter? Are you sick? Come here to smash my door early in the morning." I had to stand up and get up, and opened the door, cursing angrily.
I thought it was the landlord who was smashing the door.
It was Li Xiaorou's pretty face that appeared in front of me.
"It's great that you're okay!" Seeing me appear, Li Xiaorou patted her chest with a "relaxed" appearance. Without waiting for me to ask questions, she immediately asked: "What are your plans today?"
I was baffled by her operation, but I still replied: "Of course I left here." What I said was true. As soon as I got the charm yesterday, I wished to leave the ancient town and return to the city. To the old Taoist priest, I would have left overnight if it hadn't had a car.
"Well, let's go together, let's go now." Then, Li Xiaorou wanted to reach out and drag me.
I subconsciously took a step back, avoiding the other person's touch, and said, "Wait, did you tell me this early in the morning?"
"Of course not." Li Xiaorou waved anxiously, looked around, then lowered her throat and said, "I got up a few days early and saw people in this small town gather in groups to discuss. What's the matter, the expression is very nervous, I asked again, this town is actually a water ghost, I heard that the spell to suppress the water ghost has been torn off, this will be the townspeople's house-to-house search!"
Hearing this, I was stunned, no way!
The news that Li Xiaorou brought to me immediately frightened me, and the people became sober. I quickly looked around and found that there were no other people. I immediately let out a sigh of relief, and pulled Li Xiaorou into the room and closed the door.
"What nonsense are you talking about? If others hear about it, can this boss still do business?" With a complaining look on my face, I accused Li Xiaorou.
In fact, what I was thinking was: Let’s not say whether that spell is the one used to suppress the water ghosts. Even if it is, I won’t just hand it over. After all, it’s a matter of life and death. After the female ghost, I will come back with the old Taoist priest to solve the water ghost! However, Li Xiaorou said that the townspeople would conduct door-to-door searches. What can be done
When I was accused, Li Xiaorou blinked her eyes, her face showed a trace of grievance: "What are you doing? What I said is true. When I went out, the boss looked at my luggage twice before returning it. Give it to me." He said, still working hard
Raised the travel bag in his hand.
I noticed that Li Xiaorou had brought all her luggage with her, so she had to comfort her: "I didn’t believe you, but your voice was quite loud just now, and it’s not good to be heard by others. , You wait for me, I will pack things up, let's leave together."
Li Xiaorou nodded obediently, and sat obediently on the chair beside her.
I picked up a change of clothes and toiletries, went to the bathroom to wash up in a hurry, and then started to pack my things.
Thinking of that charm, I rolled my eyes, I took out the small purse where the charm was hidden, and handed it to Li Xiaorou, saying: "This is my personal belongings. It contains my ID card and other things. I will buy it later. When you get the ticket, please help me to buy it! In case of a search by those townsfolk, I don’t want my things to be lost."
After blinking, Li Xiaorou seemed to understand something, nodded, took the small wallet and stuffed it into her lady's shoulder bag.
After finishing packing things, Li Xiaorou and I went out together. Just when we arrived in the lobby downstairs, we found that there was immediately crowded with people below. The landlord's sister was blocking the door with a group of people.
Seeing this, I immediately glanced at Li Xiaorou next to me with gratitude. Had she not confided in the news, I would have been caught on the spot. Not only would I not be able to take the spell away, I would have to be beaten severely.
I motioned to Li Xiaorou to wait for me, then settled the money for the room, and then took her to go out.
"Wait, big brother, I'm sorry, something happened in the town. Someone stole something from our town. Everyone is tracking it down. Brother, please open your suitcase and let us check it." The eldest sister stretched out her sturdy arm and stopped in front of us, and said politely.
Li Xiaorou immediately shouted: "My luggage has been searched. How many times are you going to search?"
"It's okay, it's okay, we didn't do anything wrong anyway, let them see if they want to see it." I pretended to comfort Li Xiaorou, took the initiative to put down the luggage bag in my hand, unzipped it, and took a step back.
Seeing my cooperation in this way, the landlord’s face suddenly changed a lot: "Offended." She said, winking at the two people next to her.
