Raising Ghosts Records

Chapter 37
The five flashlights that suddenly turned on made me shrink back quickly when my feet just touched the ground, what a pity!Now I might really be screwed.I really can't think of where else I can escape, so I can only climb up the tree again. At this moment, I only have an instinctive reaction to escape!Isn't climbing a tree a dead end?I don't have wings to fly away from the tree, and sooner or later I still have to come down. At this time, I really understood what it means to have a dead end.

Although Tongtong's fire has been extinguished, there are still charcoal fires burning. Those vines probably grew from the same root. Maybe they are suffering from pain at the moment, so they didn't come to tie me up again.

Because there are vines everywhere in the whole tree, it is not difficult to climb. I climbed to the top of the tree in one breath. The branches standing under my feet are only not much thicker than my fingers. As for breaking.

The top of the tree is at least as high as four or five floors from the ground. If I am unlucky, the branch I am standing on will break off, and I will probably fall to my death on the spot.

The five flashlights rushed to the root of the tree in a short while, and they all shot at the tree. I was dazzled by the light, and I couldn't see who was under the tree.

I knew I was exposed, maybe they knew I was on the tree, but they were afraid of these entangled vines, so they didn't climb up the tree to catch me, maybe they were trying to figure out how to get me down, but they saw the tree There was a fire on the tree, and then Fujiko let go and saw me coming down the tree before running out to catch me.

They already know that only fire can deal with these vines. I don't know if they will risk climbing up, but they are all adults, so they can't climb that high because of their heavy weight. I guess they dare not climb, after all, I can't escape .

To buy time, I pulled up my trousers and urinated on the still burning coals below to extinguish it, so that at least when they climbed up the tree to catch me, the vines would tie them up, and I might be able to take the opportunity to escape.

At this time, the four flashlights under the tree suddenly turned off, leaving only the brightest one. The person holding this flashlight took two steps forward and touched the old locust tree with his hand.

Suddenly this person yelled at the tree. Although I hadn’t heard that voice a few times, I was very familiar with it. This person was the bastard of the old man raising ghosts. Although I hadn’t had a few conversations with him, his voice I can recognize it even in ashes.

He raised his head and shouted to the tree: "Why is this friend up there climbing so high? Why don't you come down and smoke a few cigarettes together, and study how about this extremely rare gathering place."

I didn't answer his question. After the old man raising ghosts finished speaking, he was silent for tens of seconds and then said: "My old man is a person who likes to make friends. I lost a little thing that I have raised for five years here. I don't know. Have the friends on the tree ever seen it? It can be seen that you are also a person with real skills. If you have seen it, can you tell me, Old Chen, that you will be rewarded a lot!"

I didn't expect the old man who raised ghosts to speak so politely. Maybe he didn't realize that the person on the tree was the boy who was poisoned by him more than half a year ago.

I still didn't talk to me, because I really didn't know what to do. I just hid in the tree and looked down at the tree. The distance was too high and the branches and leaves made the other party unable to see my face.

The old man raising ghosts yelled a few more times, and several people in the company also yelled a few times, but when I heard one of the voices, I almost fell down in shock.I am more familiar with this voice. I have heard it for more than ten years. How could I not know who made this voice.

That's right, this voice is my uncle, who killed Wu Dapao in the next village because of being chased for gambling debts, and then fled to Guigang.But what I don't understand is how he appeared here, and how he got mixed up with the old man raising ghosts.

I lowered my voice and called out "Four-legged Snake," which was my uncle's nickname, anyway, everyone in the village called it that way. He was stunned for a moment when he heard it, and then began to curse, which was very ugly.Uncle must not know that the person on the tree is his nephew who was driven out of the house by him last year!When I left home last year, my voice was still that of a child, and I was only a little over 1.4 meters tall.

A year later, my voice has become thicker and I am 1.6 meters tall. Maybe if I stand in front of him and don't look at my face, he will never recognize me.

My uncle scolded all my relatives with a lot of bad words, but I didn't know that the ones he scolded the most were his sister and parents, that is, my mother and grandma. It's really sad!

After he finished cursing, he asked me who I was and how I recognized him. The old ghost raiser raised his hand, and my uncle shut up and stepped aside.

The old man raising ghosts shouted again, only to hear him say again: "The friend on the tree is my own! Then I should come down to talk about the past. If my lost little thing is picked up by your friend, you will treat it as Chen Erbing Sending you off! But I must pay you as a friend!"

These sounded very friendly words, maybe I really believed them a year ago, but I know that if I go on for a year, I will definitely end up dead.

I don't know how long it takes to spend on this tree, even if they can't come up, I won't go down, but I have to eat!I couldn't escape the disaster, so I sneered, and finally decided to discuss the conditions with the old man raising ghosts now, so I shouted to the old man raising ghosts under the tree: "Old man under the tree, do you still remember that you were kidnapped in Jiangkou last year?" The woman and boy who left?"

When the old ghost raiser heard my question, he was taken aback for a moment, then laughed again and said, "The friend on the tree turned out to be a little brother! Could it be that you misidentified him?"

I replied coldly: "You must remember! But I miss you every day. Tonight is the same as what was said on TV. The road to enemies is narrow!"

After the old man who raised ghosts heard my sentence "the road to the enemy is narrow", he couldn't help laughing a few times, and he didn't pretend to be confused anymore.I just heard him say: "You are not very old, but you are really promising. Half a year ago, you captured the fish demon that I raised for seven years, and swallowed my leech gu, and you can live to this day. It's a great skill to catch the little ghost I raised for five years!" It's a pity that I, Chen Erbing, didn't meet such an apprentice as you!This is the biggest regret in life!Why don't you come down and return the two brats to me, I promise I won't pursue the past, and I'll give you a lot of money, how about it? "

The old man who raised ghosts praised me, but he probably didn't know that it wasn't me who was capable, it was Sorceress Zhang who caught Tongtong.However, even if God-in-law Zhang alone is not enough, she is just an ordinary peasant woman who can catch ghosts because she is possessed by a fairy and has those two magic weapons.If there is no bronze knife and phoenix bone hairpin, she can only tell people's fortune, help people choose a new house for fire, a good day for marriage and so on.

I was able to catch this little black devil not because of my real skills, but because I had a bronze knife, and it was only afraid of my bronze knife.But obviously the old man raising ghosts didn't know that I had such a powerful knife, he just thought that I caught the little ghost he raised for five years with real skills, and this little ghost is like a nightmare within a nightmare for ordinary people The presence.In addition, the water ghost he had raised for seven years before, that is Tong Tong, I also had my share in catching her, of course I also relied on the bronze knife and the phoenix bone hairpin.

Maybe the old man who raised ghosts praised me from the bottom of his heart. It can be heard that in his eyes, I am a "genius" who is young but has real skills.

But praises are praises, and the account still needs to be settled. I cleared my throat and shouted to the tree: "Yes, I poached your little devil, you old fool, I followed you for several days you I couldn’t find it, and if you dare to raise so many ghosts if you don’t have the ability, you won’t be afraid of being eaten back by them. You might as well go home and raise pigs. You can also ask me to return the little devil to you. You can tell me about the woman you kidnapped The whereabouts of you, or I will kill your ghost and ruin your five years of hard work.

The old man who raises ghosts is obviously an old man, and I am very tender to negotiate terms with him. Even if he tells me the whereabouts of witch Zhang, how do I know if he made it up?Maybe even the old man who raises ghosts doesn't know where Goddess Zhang is.

The old man raising ghosts under the tree sneered after listening to me and said, "Little brother, I am here to give you a way to survive. You are still young. With your ability, a great life is waiting for you in ten years. I hope you can cherish this opportunity." , before I get angry!"

I also turned on the flashlight, and shouted to the tree that there was nothing to talk about, so let’s use it up!I informed the police well before I came, and they will find this place by daybreak.Of course, this is just a lie I made up, just to scare them away, but this idea is really naive.

To be honest, I am very afraid, if I fall into the hands of the old man raising ghosts tonight, Tongtong will be taken back by him, and I will never be able to find my sister.

After the ghost raising old man heard me tell the police, he yelled at me on the tree, "Poor boy, let me put an end to your short life!"

After the ghost raising old man finished speaking, he began to dance with his hands above his head, moaning, and after a while, a small snake came out of his sleeve.

This little snake was just the length and thickness of the chopsticks. After getting out of the old man's sleeve, he climbed to the top of his head and circled around twice before disappearing.

At this time, Tongtong reminded me to be careful, that snake was called a spirit snake, and it was filled with the ghost of a woman who hanged herself.I asked Tongtong what to do, there was no escape route, the branch would be broken if I retreated, I would die if I was bitten by a snake, and I would die if I fell to death.

Tongtong said, don't I have a needle?I pricked it with the needle, and I was sure it would be dead in one shot, so I took out the phoenix bone hairpin from the bag.

After waiting in fear for more than a minute, a little blue snake climbed onto the branch opposite me, it was about one meter away from me, only then did I see the appearance of this little snake clearly, it actually had two legs. a snake head.
