Mystery Leaks

Chapter 63
As soon as the wind stopped, the strong chill disappeared without a trace, and I let out a heavy breath of "air-conditioning", and the ghosts seemed to retreat.

But I didn't understand what happened, so I asked, "What's going on?"

Huang Mao said: "Something should have scared them away."

"what?!"

I heard Ji Lingling shudder, how terrifying is something that can scare away ghosts?
"What's the matter with this moon?" Cao Nan was also taken aback.

"This is the devil's moon. It indicates that the righteousness is weak, the evil is strong, the resentment is strong, the hostility is strong, and it is very fierce. I am afraid that something will happen!"

Hu Lai swallowed his saliva, and said with difficulty: "I've only heard of it before, but I haven't seen it before. How evil is your village?"

I don't know how to answer, Hyakki Night Walk is already powerful enough, and now there is another blood moon, bright red, as if smeared with blood, it is definitely not auspicious.

"The red light seems to be fading." Cao Nan looked at the moon and said.

I took a look, and what he said was right. After the blood-red moon passed through a few black clouds, the red light became weaker and weaker, obviously.

"It's not aimed at us, is it?" I asked nervously. It's more powerful than a hundred ghosts. If it was aimed at us, it would be a big deal.

"Probably not." Huang Mao shook his head.

I immediately breathed a sigh of relief, as long as it wasn't directed at us, we scared away all the night-walking ghosts, and we were safe instead.

"I'll spend the night in the peach grove tonight, and leave after the cock crows." The bald bodyguard seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly rushed out of the peach grove and disappeared in a flash.

Only the four of us looked at each other in blank dismay, and then we were on guard for a while, and then relaxed after the blood moon completely subsided.

This night, I was shocked several times!

First the python, then the Hyakki Night Walk, and finally that powerful thing.

Thinking of the python, I hurriedly looked at the dark hole under my grandfather's grave, and couldn't help asking with lingering fear: "Is the python still down here, and will it sneak attack us?"

Just now, the bald bodyguard kicked me flying, which made me feel like a mess, and when I recovered, the tail that rushed out of the python disappeared.

"Don't worry, it left long ago!" Hu Lai said with certainty.

My heart finally fell back to my stomach. I blasted it just now, and it would be dangerous if it retaliated.

"By the way, did you smell anything just now?" I asked again, when the blood moon rose, a scent made me feel a little familiar, like the smell of peach blossoms, and like the scent of orchids.

I immediately thought of the woman in red, but compared with her body fragrance, there was an obvious difference between that scent.But only I can smell the body fragrance of the woman in red, so I want to ask if they have smelled that fragrance.

As a result, the three of them looked at each other, Huang Mao said: "I only smell your urine!"

I glared at him angrily, and suddenly felt strange. The body fragrance of the woman in red is fascinating, and there is also a scent of orchid, but it definitely does not smell of peach blossom.I grew up with this peach blossom forest since I was a child, and I am very familiar with the smell of peach blossoms, so I can't smell it wrong.

If it was the woman in red, how could the taste be different?If not, how could they not smell it?
I can't figure it out at all.

"Leizi, it's the same thing when we set up a tomb for my uncle tomorrow." Cao Nan comforted me when he saw my expression was different and thought I was worried about my grandfather.

I nodded, that's all I can do now.

What happened tonight was too big. Grandpa’s coffin was empty. I’m afraid it not only shocked me, but also the people and ghosts who wanted to snatch the coffin.It's hard to predict how they will react next, the magic moon is in the sky, and the random and ominous explanation made me feel even more nervous.

I'm afraid something will happen!
Judging from the situation where we are besieged by hundreds of ghosts, things are not so easy to turn over, and greed will not allow those people and ghosts to stop.

Thinking of the hundred ghosts, I still feel chills in my heart. It is so scary that there are so many ghosts in Jinpen Township, so I asked again: "Are there really a hundred ghosts outside just now?"

"Of course not. Today's Ghost Festival, the gate of ghosts is wide open, and those ghosts who return will be coerced by even more powerful evil ghosts and ghosts. That's why there is such a big formation. Don't talk about hitting the peach blossom formation, even close to it. I dare not." Huang Mao said speechlessly.

"So that's how it is." I secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and asked again: "Then how many are there?"

Huang Mao hesitated for a moment, and said, "Probably... there must be four or five of them."

"Four or five are too many, it's completely a ghost nest." Hu Lai interjected, and said, "There may not be one in a hundred or ten miles away, but there are only a bunch of them in a radius of ten miles, and all of them are quite fierce. "

"I heard footsteps when they were scared away just now, is the mandrill also coming?" Cao Nan also asked.I nodded. I heard it myself just now. It stands to reason that there is no sound when ghosts walk, and the sound of footsteps is not right.

"It should be, the thing that enslaves the mandrill is also here." Huang Mao nodded.

"Hundred ghosts are walking at night, the moon is in the sky, ghosts and evil spirits are all running down the mountain, something will definitely happen in your town." Hu Lai said very seriously.

My scalp is numb, needless to say, it's too evil.

Usually those ghosts don't come to the village easily. According to Huang Mao's words, there are many people in the village with strong yang, and ghosts don't like it.

Finally, I thought of the bald bodyguard again. He is the widow Sai Yuer's man, and he looks very respectful to Sai Yuer. It seems that his performance tonight is not ordinary; he kicked me away at the critical moment and saved me ; But that kick was hard enough, and my chest still hurts badly.

I asked the yellow-haired widow Sai Yuer what role she played in Jinpen Township, and why the bald bodyguard came here.Last time when he eavesdropped on the secret conversation between the tomb robber and Xu Jiaojiao, the tomb robber said that he had used the little red building to deal with the old ghost.

Obviously, Xiaohonglou also participated in a series of deceitful events in Jinpen Township, but their actions were all out of my sight.

Otherwise, the widowed mother Sai Yuer wouldn't come to my shop suddenly that day, and Huang Mao wouldn't run to her.

Huang Mao's face froze, and he paused and said, "Her identity is very special, it's better for you not to know, this is a taboo in the law practice, and it is not allowed to spread it outside."

"I think you are having an affair with Sai Yuer." I said angrily, deliberately provoking him, this guy does not know how many things are hidden from me.

Huang Mao quit, "Boy, don't talk nonsense, I have nothing to do with her."

"Who believes!"

"..."

After mixing a few words, Hu Lai said to me: "Meng Lei, you still listen to Huang Mao, that woman is not an ordinary person, you will know when you have a chance in the future."

I was speechless, so I could only give up. Hu Lai is more honest, not as oily as Huang Mao, and he said the same thing, it seems that he is indeed a bit taboo.

……

After that, there was a long wait. We talked a lot, but there was nothing of value. Although Huangmao knew more than me, he couldn't figure it out either.Some things didn't surface until the moment, and no one knew what was wrapped inside.

Even if the human heart is separated from the belly, ghosts are even more unpredictable.

After dawn, we immediately found tools and backfilled the grave. There was a lot of movement last night. If it was not covered up, it would definitely spread, and the focus would definitely be on me.

Of course, this is not the most important thing. I am afraid that the third uncle and aunt will be frightened, and things will become more and more evil.

After filling it, I ran back to the old house, found some old things that my grandfather had used, packed them in a box, buried them in the soil and made a clothes tomb.

Fortunately, the tombstone was well preserved in the impact of the python, and it was almost covered when it was erected.As for the original cement tomb, it can only be said that it was destroyed by tomb robbers again.

Clothes tombs are also tombs, and all procedures follow the rules of burial, but they are simplified. I wear sackcloth and mourning, burn incense and paper, and when the busy work is over, the sun has already risen.

The village was in a state of turmoil, everyone said anything, and people were in panic. Some people said they heard ghost screams, and some people said that it was just a ground cow turning over. It was not that mysterious.

I thought that after the cover-up, the peach grove would not receive too much attention, but it turned out that the third day after the incident, the whole town was boiling, and I became the focus of attention of the whole town.

Because all the peach trees in the peach blossom forest are in bloom!

Just like the season when the peach blossoms are in full bloom in March in Yangchun, they are incomparably gorgeous!
