Chapter 36 Ghost City
The road to the village happens to pass through this road and then turn from a downhill fork to the road in front of Wusi Village.This carpenter is also a low-minded person. When he was young, he encountered a lot of pickled things, and his yin and yang eyes were not closed until he was 50 or [-] years old.

Speaking of it, he was unlucky, many people walked from here before without encountering the ghost market, but he saw it.Although he didn't suffer any direct injuries that time, he was so scared that he didn't dare to take this road again for more than half a year. Every time he went to the market, he had to take the long way before, and suffered a lot.

That day, when he happened to be on the road behind the old man's house, he was a little tired and took a rest on the spot.Because it was too early, there were not many people going to the market on the road, and only occasionally ran into one every ten minutes.Perhaps the carpenter himself was a little curious about the previous legends about the shade and other things here, so he looked down. Fortunately, he almost fainted on the spot.

Although it is far away, I can't hear the sound, but I can see that the old man's house is full of people, coming and going, very lively, there are clothes sellers, vegetable sellers, children and adults.When the old man’s row of houses was still there, there were not so many people. Later, the houses and ruins suddenly disappeared and turned into a wide street. There are houses with corners on both sides of the street. The layout looks like ancient of.The people on the street are constantly flowing, bustling, bustling like a market in the world.It's obviously a wasteland, where did the market come from? Just by looking at it, you can tell that there are no people!
Before the carpenter could look or think too much, he subconsciously threw away a load of things and began to run quickly.The moon in the sky seems to have not disappeared yet. Hidden behind the clouds, the whole hill is so quiet that even the birdsong is very clear. I don't know what sound suddenly sounded in the grass beside me.Fear is like a seed that sprouts in my heart and grows into a voluptuous emerald green vine. When I pull it lightly, my internal organs tremble in fear.

That day, the carpenter ran all the way home, and collapsed as soon as he got home. He was so paralyzed that he couldn't stand up when he stood on the ground. He was not tired but frightened.His face was pale and pale, his lips were trembling, as if he had lost his soul, his eyes were dull for a long time until his wife slapped him before he woke up, and he began to talk about what happened before.

"What? You lost all your goods? Why don't you lose yourself?" Before the carpenter could finish speaking, his irascible wife was about to start scolding.

"Let me tell you, that shady place is the haunted place in the next village. I really saw it today. There are a lot of people there, and one person's shadow is very clear, as if going to the market. I was so scared that I immediately went to the market." I ran back, if you don’t believe me, go and see for yourself..." Before the carpenter finished speaking, he fell back and really passed out, and didn't wake up until the next day.

His mother-in-law is also very courageous. That morning, she was the one who took advantage of the time and hurriedly pulled a car of wooden furniture home. They were all sold for money. People picked up cheap.

It's strange to say that when the woman went there, she didn't see anything. After the carpenter woke up, he was scolded again, but this matter still spread in several nearby villages.Sure enough, I saw more than one, and then another passer-by saw it while walking in the middle of the night. What was even more strange was that on the fourteenth and fifteenth of July that year, many people in Huang Jianguo's village heard footsteps, talking, etc. The sound of noise, quarrels, and hawking, you can tell from the sound alone that it is indeed a market in the underworld.Old people who know a little bit said that this is a ghost market. I once heard it from my elders, but I didn’t expect to see it in my lifetime.

Because the news of the ghost market spread farther and farther, it once attracted a lot of Taoist priests who threatened to help collect the souls, and even the ghosts were attracted.Similarly, the more dangerous the place, the more curious people want to try it out.Originally, everyone in the village knew that there was a problem with that piece of land, and taught their children not to go there, and not even look down when walking on the road, but some naughty little bastards still sneaked away.Newborn calves are not afraid of tigers. It is impossible for adults to suppress the impulse in the hearts of children with thousands of reminders, and my father went there secretly back then.No, if you go decisively, something will go wrong.

This was when my father was a teenager, and the ghost market had existed there for several years.On the night of July [-]th and July [-]th, because it is the ghost festival, all ghosts go out, so the ghost market is extraordinarily lively, and the sound can be transmitted to the other side of the mountain.However, fortunately, my father didn't go there in these two days, otherwise there would be no way of returning safely.There were several children who went there at that time, all of them were from our village. After all, it was separated by a village, so the children in Wusi Village were even more curious about whether the ghost market in the next village really existed. Mysterious and unpredictable, the children couldn't help being agitated, and finally a few teenage boys hit it off and started the adventure.

My father did many adventurous things when he was a child, such as the ginseng essence he met before.This time it is a real adventure, because it is dealing with the legendary ghost, so the children are more eager to try.Going home, wanting to go home, first of all, you have to prepare.I don't know who told me about the black dog's blood to ward off evil spirits, so I thought of carrying a small bottle with me like a father, so that I can deal with any danger at any time.In case there are ghosts, they can be frightened, can't they?I have to say that although they are young, they still know a lot, and they don't know what they are pretending to be all day long.

But where to get this black dog blood?There must be a full bottle, not to say that there are so many ghosts over there, a little bit is definitely not enough.Don't be an idiot if you come across one after the sprinkle is over and then another one.Boldness also requires carefulness, all of which must be considered in place.

"Xiao Si, where do we go to find this black dog's blood?" The father sat by the river thoughtfully, holding a piece of dog's tail grass in his mouth, propping his hands on the river bank, his feet dangling in the water, Feel more comfortable.The early summer wind carried the aftertaste of spring, with a slight fragrance of flowers and grass. A group of teenagers gathered and played on the grass on the river beach as usual.

At this time, there is not much farm work to do in the field, and everyone has more leisure time to relax.Originally, I was planning to go down to the river to catch crabs, but there are not too many crabs at the moment, but there are many small fishes swimming freely and happily in the clear river water, and they are so casual on the grass. It is also a beautiful thing to lie down and look at the white clouds in the blue sky.

"Brother Ping, didn't the old man Chen's house in our lower village feed a big black dog, but it seems to be very fierce. Are we going to kill the dog secretly and let the blood out?" Xiao Si'er said while making gestures to wipe his neck , As soon as these words came out, everyone else was amused.

"Little Sier, how dare you steal a dog? I'm not afraid that your mother will catch you and beat you so that you won't be able to get out of bed for half a month! Hahaha..." It was a boy named Aidang who said this. It doesn't look like a mischievous person on a daily basis. It's really thanks to the name his parents gave him at the beginning, and he was expected to learn from the advanced model of the Communist Party and make contributions to the country when he grows up. Really!

"You stupid boy, we need to steal a dog to kill and let blood? If you are found out, you will be scolded, not only your parents will scold you, but also the old man Chen? You don't know that the dog is his lifeblood, He has been raising him for seven or eight years, and he is closer than his grandson!" Er Huzi has grown up now, and before he knows it, the little kid back then has grown into a tall and straight boy, and his face has begun to have The edges and corners have changed, and the baby fat of the past has also disappeared over time.It is said that he has been very honest for several years since the time of stealing ghosts.However, the nature of the country is easy to change, and the nature is hard to change. If it is a little older, it will be restless.In fact, this is also good, it proves that the child did not bear too much psychological burden because of that incident, otherwise the situation like today would not happen.His parents are still happy that their son has become cheerful again, a man just needs to be brave, and they will be very happy as long as he can grow up happily.

"Then what do you say? Brother Huzi, I still don't understand what you mean." Little Si'er became more and more puzzled. If you don't kill the dog, there will be no black dog blood. Otherwise, what else can you do? "Oh, I see, haha." He thought about it in a blink of an eye, as if he suddenly had a new perspective, his eyes were bright and bright, with a hint of cunning.

"Tell me, tell me, let me see if you can come up with it." Er Huzi wanted to see what ideas this little idiot could come up with.

"On a night where you can't see your fingers, the wind is blowing, the moon is hidden behind the clouds, the sky and the earth are silent, and everyone in the village is asleep. Several of us put on black night clothes, picked up shiny kitchen knives, The great action of slaughtering dogs and bloodletting began. At twelve o’clock in the middle of the night, we each pushed open the door, and while our parents were asleep, we quietly went to the big tree in the lower village to gather. Then we successfully met and discussed, and went to Chen’s house together, saying Sooner or later, before the black dog rushed out of the yard, I went down with a club, and the dog fell to the ground without barking. Brother Xiaoping took out a knife and quickly slashed at the dog's leg, blood spurted out, and the tiger Brother Zi took out a bottle from his arms with lightning speed and quickly filled the bottle full of blood. When the bottle was full, we retreated quickly. All operations ended perfectly, and there was dog blood, and the dog was not killed Death, how, how. Are you intoxicated? Haha, applaud me, applaud me!" Xiao Si'er looked like a monkey, jumping up and down, thinking that he was a hero in that martial arts figure.

"Tch, do you think you are a martial arts hero? Even night clothes?"

"Cut, return the kitchen knife? It's not shameful to throw it away, who uses a kitchen knife for bloodletting..."

"Cut, it's too fast to cover your ears. When did you learn Chinese so well? Show off..."

The other little friends showed disdain one by one, blowing away little Si'er's enthusiasm, "Could it be that my plan is not perfect? ​​I think it's great!" Xiao Si frowned, his eyes squeezed into A slit, with an embarrassing expression on his face, he was about to be buried and cried, and he knew how to beat people all day long, hum!
"Haha, have you ever thought about it, even if the dog can knock you out with a stick, how much blood can be released from the dog's legs, and the blood is still gushing out? You think it's killing a pig. It probably wakes up before you finish letting the dog go. Not to mention biting you or yelling twice to wake old man Chen up, we can't run away. I really don't know what you are thinking!" Er Huzi couldn't help it, thinking of the scene that Xiaosi depicted Feeling like a dog thief, and an amateur at the same time, he covered his mouth and laughed, the more he laughed, the more he couldn't help it, and finally he laughed until his stomach hurt and he lay down on the grass and rolled around.

"Then go a few more times and let a little bit of blood out every time, it seems that there is not much blood on a dog's leg..." Xiaosi suddenly felt that what he said made sense, but he was born with a lack of meridians in his brain, and the key point was not in it. Is it good here?It's easy to get caught once and go several times. I really think I am a master of martial arts, and I can come and go without a trace!
"My God, the point is not here, okay? Er Huzi doesn't mean that the blood on the dog's leg can't be drained at one time. The point is that the dog barks a few times and the person is drawn out. Where shall we run then?" Father Looking at Xiao Si's tangled appearance like constipation, I really can't bear to hit his young and fragile heart.
