I have never seen the book of ghosts and gods since I was young. I don't believe that there are ghosts in the world!
The woman outside the door stood for a long time without moving. Zhu Shu was afraid and pushed Liu Yue to go out to watch.
Liu Yue would not say anything, so she tried to hold her feet and never moved an inch forward.
Zhu Shu is so angry that he wants to hit her again. But at this time, he hears a sound of "kowtow" behind him.
It's like a knock on the door.
Zhu Shu's whole body is stiff, and Liu Yue is holding Zhu Shu's wrist again, shaking with fear.
They looked at each other and convinced themselves that they had just heard the wrong thing, but the "kowtow" was heard again at the next moment.
Liu Yue finally can't stand it. She covers her head, squats on the ground, hugs her knees and shivers.
Zhu Shu opened his eyes in horror and mechanically twisted his head back
Their current position is right in the hall, behind them is the whole ancestral hall, and the coffin of tangqin'er who plays horizontally.
It's very simple that there are only three sides around the wall. But in such an environment, how can they make a sound behind them?
Then I think of the sound and image of "kowtow" very much. Someone's fingers are bent to knock on the coffin wall. Zhushu's eyes are red after all, so I summon up courage to look into the coffin.
Just as Liu Yue said, the eyes of tangqin'er were shaken by Zhushu, but she forced herself to continue to look. Her eyes went from tangqin'er's face to her bloody chest, to her arms on both sides.
The arms are vertical on the side, there's nothing wrong, so it's not her knocking.
So where does the "kowtow" sound come from?
At this time, the figure of the woman standing in front of the hall moved. She walked forward slowly, walked two steps, stopped again, smiled again, accompanied by a whisper: "see..."
Zhu Shu retreats abruptly, his back clings to the coffin, and he is scared to sweat.
"Your Hair... "
Zhu Shu covers his head and looks at Liu Yue.
See Liu Yue has shrunk to the back of the coffin, shivering desperately shaking his head, and like Zhu Shu, clinging to his head.
"Come Catch you... "
"Knock."
The voice outside the door didn't fall, and there was a knock in the coffin behind her. Zhushu couldn't stand it any longer. She covered her ears and screamed, "ah --"
her cry made Liuyue cry too.
The cry of the two was like a huge wave, which blew the cold night apart
Zhushu quickly ran behind Liuyue, put Liuyue in front of her, closed her eyes and screamed. Liuyue resisted Zhushu's strength and retreated to her death, shouting with her at the same time.
After shouting for a long time, they heard a series of footsteps running outside. Then the candlelight was dazzling and the man's voice sounded anxiously: "what's the matter? What's up? What happened? "
Zhu Shu looked up and saw that there were two patrol townspeople. She rushed to hide behind the townspeople, pointed to the coffin and said, "there are ghosts here..."
The hall was lighted with candles, and it was as bright as daylight in a moment. The townspeople pacified Liu Yue and Zhu Shu, and recognized their identities. Although they were amazed at how miss zhangjiatang and her servant girl would come to the ancestral hall in the middle of the night, they were still kind enough to answer their questions: "the cellar is closed to Grandma Li. She is the God who talks about the sound of percussion. Maybe it's her ghost."
Zhu Shu hurriedly shook his head and pointed to the outside of the gate: "there is another woman, right at the door, who still talked and said that she saw us and would come to catch us..."
The townsman scratched his head: "no, we didn't see people when we came. Besides, no one came to the ancestral hall on weekdays. Today, Li Po was detained. The mayor sent us several people to patrol and guard. There were no women in the patrol."
Zhu Shu doesn't believe it: "it's just someone. The woman stood outside for a long time, and she was very funny. She laughed like a ghost asking for life..."
The townsman said helplessly, "no one really. Speaking of it, what are you doing when you come to the ancestral hall so late?"
Hearing this, Zhu Shu looks at Liu Yue and pulls Liu Yue, who is scared and trembling, to her body and says, "our miss and Miss Tang are good sisters who share the same spirit. Miss Tang is so sad that she wants to come to see Miss Tang for the last time. She could come back tomorrow, but Miss Tang says she can't sleep tonight. We have to catch up all night Come... "
The townsman sighed, "I will send someone to take you back. It's not safe for two girls to go on the street in the evening."
Zhu Shu nodded in panic. After this, she dared not stay any longer.
Liu Yue would like to leave now, especially the sound of "kowtow" always reverberated in her mind, which made her not even have the courage to stay in this hall for a moment.
After seeing off the two masters and servants of Zhangjia, the patrolling townspeople looked at the eye hall, put out the candles in the room, and walked out the original way.
After they left, outside the silent ancestral hall, the shadow of trees swayed, and in the coffin of the ancestral hall, there was a clear sound of "kowtow".Then, a female figure reappeared in front of the hall door. This time, a smaller figure appeared beside the figure.
"Sister yu'er, didn't she say she wouldn't let you come?"
Xiaoli takes Li yu'er's hand and criticizes her unhappily.
Li yu'er is quite aggrieved. She looks at the dark hall of the ancestral hall and points to it and says, "to play, to play together, to play hide and seek..."
"It's not hide and seek. We have business to do!" Xiao Li is helpless. He looks around and makes sure there is no one around. He leads Li yu'er into the lobby. After he enters, he goes straight to the coffin. As soon as the man passes by, he sees a swarthy thing flying out of the coffin. The dark little thing hovers over the coffin for a while and falls steadily to tangqin'er's head.
Xiaoli quickly reached out to wave: "Pearl, can't be naughty."
The black bird was driven to the edge of the coffin. The sharp Falcon was red, and Xiao Li was angry when he saw it.
"Don't steal. I haven't checked yet." Said to catch the little blackbird.
The blackbird stole away from the gap between his hands, then jumped into the coffin, sat on tangqin'er's bloody chest, bowed his head and chewed meat on her wound, took it and swallowed it immediately, then rubbed his mouth on the corner of the coffin happily.
The sound of "kowtow" rings again, which is the sound of the little black bird when it touches the coffin along the wall.
Xiaoli, one big and two big, stared at the one big and one small in front of him. He was so angry that his cheeks were all puffed up. He taught: "sister yu'er is not obedient. She asked you to sleep well. Why do you want to follow her? If you don't have cloud to look at her, you won't obey me! Pearl is not good either. She promised to accompany me to check the corpse. How can she secretly greedy? I know the fresh corpse is delicious, but if you are hungry, we can go home and eat mince. How can we destroy the evidence? "
Li yu'er was scolded pitifully with her head down, but the Pearl was bold, not only didn't admit her mistake, but also replied with a clear voice: "Jie Jie, Jie Jie..."
Xiao Li let her blush and said in a low voice: "Shh, keep your voice down. I know it's wrong for me to run out without my mother's knowledge, but I'm just curious. I just want to see if what they said is true. Will that Miss Liu really come to take the legs of this dead man tonight? How would she take it? Is it cut off? With what? After cutting it off, how can I put it on my leg? That Miss Liu can really change other people's legs to her own, can she still use them normally? I want to see how safe she is. I want to learn! I have brought the scalpel, gloves and mask. Do you think she will agree that I offer to be her assistant? Would you like to have it repaired? My mother is so stingy, and I don't have much money for my private house. I don't know if it's expensive for her to repair? Pearl, it's said that blackbirds like to collect jewels and jade to build their nests. Have you hidden a lot of private money behind us? You can lend me some money. I'll write you an IOU and return the interest to you... "
