Chapter 123 Ghost

Dan'er's cries would sound over the old house at midnight every night, frightening the people living in the old house into panic.

Some people said that Dan'er was crying for injustice, some said that Dan'er couldn't bear to leave his mother, some said that Dan'er wanted to study again, and the crying came from the stage of the ancestral hall.

Zhu Fanzi, who had not left the house for several months, came out of the house one morning shaking his folding fan in high spirits. After leaving the house, he faced the ancestral hall and chanted: "I have sharpened my sword for ten years, but the frost blade has not been tested. I will show you today. Who can feel unfair?" thing?"

After chanting, Zhu Fan flew up the wall of the old house with his hand-operated folding fan. Standing on the wall, he chanted loudly again: "The way of heaven is full, the way of earth is full, the ghosts and gods are full of harm, and the way of humanity is full of evil."

The heads of households in the old house who had been anxious for the past few days came out to watch. The one-armed Luo and the cross-footed man raised their heads and asked: "Zhu Fan, is it possible that you have become a ghost too?" "Since you have become a ghost, can you persuade Dan'er to stop crying?" ?”

"New ghosts are annoying and old ghosts are crying, and the sky is wet and rainy, chirping!" Zhu Fanzi ignored the one-armed Luo and the cross-legged man, and just looked up to the sky and chanted loudly.

The squinty-eyed woman came over and asked Zhu Shanzi: "You damn ghost, when are you going to see Yuliu? She is suffering inside."

"Yes, yes, let's go and see the jade willow." "We must go, let's go together and see the jade willow." The one-armed Luo and the cross-legged guy didn't wait for Zhu Fan to respond to the cross-eyed woman, licking their faces and walking towards the cross-eyed woman. Po.

Seeing that she could arouse the interest of the one-armed Luo and the cross-legged man, the cross-eyed woman was about to greet her with a smile when Daylily pushed her behind the cross-eyed woman and scolded the one-armed Luo and the cross-legged man: "Are you humans or ghosts? It’s impossible for a person to say such things. Dan’er cries so unjustly every night. Isn’t it because of her?”

"Hey, Daylily, do you think you can have a feast with peace of mind every day by being next to that Badger Immortal? Isn't that ghost Dan'er still disturbing your life every night?" "That's right, I think Dan'er will come and drag you down sooner or later. Go, you must be so fat and taste good." The one-armed Luo and the cross-legged guy didn't take day lily seriously at all.

"Dan'er was very kind to me when he was alive. Sister Huicai called me Sister Huicai all the time. I slept until dawn every night. It's because you are so afraid of Dan'er because you have some ghost in your heart." Arm Luo and Stilt-legged Man suddenly bumped into One Arm Luo. One Arm Luo didn't pay attention and fell to the ground. The cross-footed man reacted and ran away, with Daylily chasing after him.

How can a guy with swaying legs escape? Seeing that Daylily was about to catch up with him, he simply stood still and stretched out his hands to fight back against Daylily. Unexpectedly, Daylily didn't reach out to catch him, but bumped directly into him. This was great, the cross-legged guy fell to the ground on his back, and he fell hard. Daylily didn't give up. He took a big step and stepped forward to ride on the cross-legged man. He slapped him and cursed: "You are neither human nor ghost. I let you eat it to make you feel good."

"Good fight, good fight, Sister Huicai, beat him to death and let him go to accompany Dan'er. Dan'er won't come back and cry every night." "He must be beaten to death. He is a shameless thing. He still wants to see Sister Liu." ? Don’t take a pee and look at yourself.” “It’s obviously a rotten green onion, but it’s your turn to look at it. If we weren’t afraid to go in, we would have gone to see her.” "Here." Da Lei, Er Lei and Xiao Lei of the Tian family walked slowly out of their home. They were all yawning and listless, and it looked like they had not slept well.

"You three little leprechauns, one Sister Liu at a time, I will beat you to death." Huang Liangcai jumped up from the rocker-legged man and bumped into Tian Da Lei. Tian Da Lei was so frightened that he stood there unable to move, dumbfounded. Waiting for a moment for Daylily to hit you. As a result, Daylily stepped on one of the swing-legged man's hands, turned his body in one direction, and bumped into Tian Xiaolei.

Tian Xiaoping just wanted to laugh at why his eldest brother didn't have good eyesight? Why don't you hide for a while? He never expected that Daylily would hit him from here and there. He reacted quickly and hurriedly dodged, but ended up stepping into the gutter. Step into the gutter and step into the gutter. At most, you need to wash your shoes and feet. But Tian Xiaolei was worried about being hit by day lily. He wanted to imitate his Sister Liu to pull the onions on dry land and then Guanyin move the lotus, but the onions were not pulled out successfully. Yi Lian actually moved, and the foot that stepped into the gutter was twisted around, and the big foot was facing her buttocks.

Seeing Tian Xiaoluo lying in the gutter without even making a sound, Huangliang stopped and cursed and walked towards the back door of the old house. Tian Erlei came up to stop Huang Lili and refused to let her go.

Day Lily asked Tian Erlei: "Have I touched your little leper? I haven't even touched a hair on my head, right? Zhu Fanzi, stand high and see far, and bear witness."

"I was watching the mountain scenery from the city tower, and I heard a commotion outside the city, with flags fluttering and flying, but it turned out to be soldiers sent by Sima..." Zhu Shanzi did not respond to Day Lily, standing on the wall facing Dongshan and humming to himself.

Day Lily glared at Zhu Shanzi and then glared at Tian Erlei: "Are you going to get out of the way? If you don't get out of the way, I'll call my mother-in-law over and curse you to death."

"Why did you call your mother-in-law here?" Zhu Fanzi stopped humming and asked Day Lily.

Day Lily snorted out of her nose and said, "Can you care?"

"I can't help it, but the Badger Immortals won't let your mother-in-law step even half a step into the old house." Zhu Fanzi stood on the wall and shook his folding fan.

Daylily responded proudly: "It was the fairy who asked me to call my mother-in-law to come over and make the recipe."

"She asked you to call your mother-in-law to come over and do it? What method? Could it be that another person died in her family?" Zhu Fanzi stopped shaking the folding fan in his hand.

Day Lily spat fiercely at Zhu Fanzi and said, "Another death has just occurred in your family. Oh, no one in your family can die except you. If you die, you will have no descendants."

"Day Lily, do you dare to scold me and cut off your descendants? I'm going to kill you!" Zhu Fan swooped down from the wall like a rainbow, pointing the folding fan directly at Day Lily's throat.

Day Lily was now just like Tian Da Lei before. He was so frightened that he stood there completely confused.

Seeing that Zhu Fanzi's fan was about to poke into Day Lily's neck, a figure flew up from the sky, kicked Zhu Fanzi's fan away with one kick, and kicked Zhu Fanzi over with the other foot to the ground.

"Yushu Linfeng?" Zhu Fanzi fell to the ground and shouted involuntarily.

"Does he need him to deal with a coffin man like you?" A clear female voice sounded.

Zhu Fanzi trembled and asked: "Who are you?"

"Hahaha, Zhu Fan, it seems you can really enter the coffin. This fairy has been following you every night for several months, but you can't recognize me?" Zhu Badger laughed.

Zhu Fanzi opened his eyes and saw that it was indeed Zhu Badger. He couldn't help being shocked and asked tremblingly: "You, you, what did you say?"

"Hahaha, the bones in this body are not working, the eyes are not working, and even the ears are not working? Zhu Shanzi, do you know? The reason why I have kept you here in the past few months without disturbing you is to see what you want. What to do?" Zhu Badger smiled even more happily.

Zhu Fanzi's face turned pale, and the complacency he had just stood on the wall was completely lost. His whole body was trembling, and he stammered and asked Zhu Badger: "Then, then, what do you, what do you want? "

"Don't worry, Zhu Fanzi, I won't take your life for the time being. It's still useful for me to keep you. Sister Huacai, go call your mother-in-law." After Zhu Badger said that, he turned around and walked into the ancestral hall. Seeing Zhu Badger walking into the ancestral hall, the cross-eyed Po Yigulu, who had been knocked to the ground by Day Lily earlier, got up from the ground and ran over to help Zhu Fan. Zhu Fanzi fell hard this time. He probably injured his tailbone and couldn't get up on his own. The squinty-eyed woman helped him move back into the house step by step. After moving back into the house, he closed the door with a bang.

The stiletto-legged man who was pushed to the ground and beaten severely by Daylily got up from the ground, rubbed his face with his hands and leaned next to One-Armed Luo, who was lying on the door of Zhu Fan.

Tian Da Lei and Tian Er Lei came over to peek or eavesdrop, but Tian Leizi and his wife caught them respectively and scolded them for carrying Tian Xiao Lei back to the house.

Tian Xiaolei's foot was completely turned upside down. Needless to say, it was painful. The key is whether he can straighten it out in the future. Tian Leizi originally wanted to ask Zhu Fanzi to straighten his bones, but Zhu Fanzi himself was seriously injured by Zhu Badger.

Now in the old house and even in the entire Lvbu Village, only Zhu Badger has some medical skills, but Tian Leizi does not dare to call Zhu Badger to treat Tian Xiaolei. Maybe it is not treatment, but punishment, and Tian Xiaolei is completely punished. Tian Leizi had no choice but to ask Tian Dalei and Tian Erlei to carry Tian Xiaolei back to the house first, and then send him to the town for treatment tomorrow. After Tian Xiaolei regained consciousness, he kept moaning and crying for his father and mother all night long. He cried out that there was no egg left in the old house at midnight.

The flat-mouthed woman said that it was not Tian Xiaolei’s credit, but her own credit.

Zhu Badger asked Daylily to go over and call the flat-mouthed woman to come over, that is, to go to the old house to do something to exorcise ghosts and demons.

Ever since the old house heard cries every night at midnight, Zhu Badger knew that someone was trying to use Dan'er to fix things, but she didn't find out in time because she also wanted to use him to fix the things in the old house.

Of course he was Zhu Fanzi. He didn't go out for several months. Naturally, he didn't go out only during the day. He was very busy at night. At midnight, he flew over to the ancestral hall and hugged the pillars of the stage, crying towards the caisson of the stage.

The caisson on the stage of the ancestral hall of the old house is a curved structure. The top brackets spiral upward layer by layer and shrink inward to form a spiral caisson, commonly known as the "chicken coop top". Wang Jingjing said that the ancient stage, the caisson of the ancient stage, and the ancestral hall can be listed as cultural preservation sites.

There is a large bronze mirror inlaid in the middle of the caisson top of the ancient stage in the ancestral hall of the old house. There are eight dragon heads and eight flower baskets carved around the large bronze mirror. According to Wang Jingjing, the caisson and the bronze mirror embedded in the dome not only have the effect of warding off disasters and evil spirits, but also have the effect of amplifying sound. When the actors sing on the stage, the sound will be gathered to the four walls of the caisson, and then It curls up and is turned back by the bronze mirror when it reaches the top, thus forming a resonance and a sound effect that echoes around the beam.

Zhu Badger admired the wisdom of the ancients, and even more admired Zhu Fanzi's perseverance. When he was very old, he went to the ancient stage of the ancestral hall to cry every night when he couldn't move, and he cried for several months.

Zhu Badger understood that Zhu Fanzi was pretending to be a ghost through the sound amplification effect of the caisson on the ancient stage. His purpose was to attract the attention of Yushu Linfeng, Uncle Liu, Lu Bo and her, so that he could do some stealing.

To say that Zhu Fanzi is cheating is not to belittle him, but that he has been cheating for decades. Stealing various valuable items from every household in the old house, touching various building components in every corner of the old house, and then hiding them in the secret room he built himself.

Yushu Linfeng Zhu Yunshan has long known that Zhu Shanzi was stealing chickens and dogs, but because he had been protecting the old house on the periphery, he was unable to find out where the things he stole chickens and dogs were hiding?

Uncle Liu and Lu Bo have taken strict precautions against him since they learned about Zhu Fanzi's true identity. Zhu Shanzi flew to the ancestral hall stage every night to cry. They didn't expose him, they just wanted Zhu Badger to follow him and find out the secret room where he hid the treasures.

Zhu Badger agreed with Zhu Yunshan, Uncle Liu, and Lu Bo not to disturb Zhu Fanzi in the previous month, so that he would think that he was very clever at pretending to be gods, and everyone was frightened by him, including Zhu Badger.

Zhu Badger asked Ma Yasha and Dan'er's mother to go to the entrance of the ancestral hall every morning to burn paper money, praying that Dan'er would live a good life on earth or in heaven and not come back to affect the normal lives of the neighbors.

Ma Yasha and Dan'er's mother even went door to door to apologize, saying that Dan'er did die unjustly. I hope everyone can understand. Remember to close the doors and windows at night. Dan'er is a kind child. He just came back to cry. No. I will do something to hurt everyone, so please feel free to worry.

After some operations, Zhu Fanzi really relaxed his vigilance. After a month, although he still flew into the ancestral hall and went to the ancient stage to cry every night, his sneaking became unscrupulous and he no longer paid attention to whether anyone was following him. On several occasions, he even wanted to enter the main house to do something. , but the eight thin dogs and eight pig badgers guarded him tightly, so he could not succeed.

In addition to tracking Zhu Fanzi herself, Zhu Badger also asked her dogs and badgers to squat at fixed points at regular intervals. The hard work paid off. Last night, she finally discovered the secret room where Zhu Fanzi hid the treasure.

Last night, as before, Zhu Shanzi slipped out of his house at the last moment of Haishi, flew over into the ancestral hall, went up to the ancient stage and cried for a while, then jumped off the stage and flew out of the ancestral hall.

In the beginning, when Zhu Fanzi slipped out of his house, he would press his body against the door and look around for a while, then throw a small object with the breath of Zhu badger to the two thin dogs and two dogs squatting at the door of the ancestral hall. In front of a pig and badger, while they are sniffing, they fly up the wall of the ancestral hall.

After crying, I hugged the stage pillar and checked that there was no abnormality around me before jumping off the stage. After jumping off the stage, I was not in a hurry to leave the ancestral hall. Instead, I ducked to the left and right porters and put my ears against the cracks in the door to listen carefully for a while before throwing it away. It still smelled like a red badger. He took the small object outside the gate of the ancestral hall, and also flew out of the ancestral hall while the thin dog and pig badger went over to sniff the object.

After following him for a few days, Zhu Badger wondered where the Zhu fan could come from with so many small items that contained her breath. It turned out that the squinty-eyed woman would take advantage of the opportunity to deliver goat milk to Zhu Shanzi early the next morning, pick up the small object and return it to Zhu Shanzi. Zhu Fan was originally locked in the house by Zhu Badger, but it was the cross-eyed woman who used the lock to open it. It was not surprising that she had the key to Zhu Fan.

Nao Xi is tied up, I really tried my best to deceive my dog ​​and badger. When Zhu Fanzi and Xianyanpo throw or pick up, they will wear cotton gloves on their hands to prevent their own breath from covering up Zhu Badger's. breath.

After Zhu Fanzi flies out of the ancestral hall, he usually wanders around the old house for a while. He is dressed in tight white clothes and wears a mask on his face. Even if he meets people who occasionally go out or return at night, he will appear like a ghost. That person would be scared to death. What's more, since Dan'er's cries appeared in the old house in the middle of the night, no one came out or returned at night. Only Zhu Hu took advantage of the heavy rain and sneaked out of the old house in the middle of the night. Zhu Badger saw that his hands were empty and he didn't bring anything, so he didn't stop him and let him leave the old house. He left the donkey but didn't reach the village. He has not returned yet.

Zhu Badger followed Zhu Shanzi to Weasel's house. Zhu Shanzi completely omitted the process of stopping and looking back to look around. He jumped into Weasel's house and went directly into the master bedroom. Huang Doujiang's voice came from inside, and the sound was naturally suppressed. It was very low, but Zhu Badger could still hear the teasing laughter between her and Zhu Fanzi, after all, it was quiet at night.

Nao Xi is in prison, Zhu Fan, are you more male than a male dog? It’s okay for you to be like that with Squinty-eyed Po, but how can you be like that with Huang Doujiang? How old is Huangdoujiang? She's as fat as a sow.

Zhu Shanzi came out of Weasel's house and walked around Dan'er's house. Seeing that there was no sound inside, he returned to Weasel's house. This time he did not enter the master bedroom. Instead, he took out an object from a corner of the yard. This object was not Big, but not small, similar to his fan.

Holding the object in his arms, Zhu Shanzi did not rush to his secret room, but wandered around the old house again. Suddenly turning around, the Zhu Badger who was following behind was so frightened that he hurriedly crawled to the ground, thinking that Zhu Shanzi had discovered her. .

Zhu Shanzi turned around and ran straight to the front yard. He stopped in front of the persimmon tree belonging to the cross-eyed husband's house and stood still.

Now only half of the persimmon tree at Squint's in-law's house is left. Zhu Fanzi stands there without any obstruction. Zhu Badger doesn't dare to follow too close anymore and hides in the corner of Weasel's house to look around.

Zhu Fanzi stood in front of the half-cut persimmon tree trunk with the object in his arms for a while. Then he suddenly moved to the screen wall and stood still. Zhu Badger thought he was afraid of the two thin dogs and pig badgers guarding the main house, but he stood there for a while. Then he suddenly turned around and ran towards the backyard.

Zhu Badger had already followed Zhu Fanzi to the corner of his house. When he saw him turning around, it was too late to hide, so he had to lie down on the spot.
