Chapter 29: It's Him

I walked out of the yard and looked at the bamboo cage, this, isn't this a pig cage?

This pig cage is made of bamboo strips, cylindrical, net-shaped, the net mouth is quite large, one end is open, the other end is sealed.

Let's put it this way, everyone has heard of the pig cage, which is the kind of punishment that dealt with improper relationships between men and women in the old society.

This is the kind of pig cage used to put people in a pig cage and throw them into the sea to drown.

In some remote areas, there are still remnants of this kind of lynching, which has been rejected by society.

Uh, it's far away again.

I looked at the pig cage, hairy, looked at my grandfather and asked, "What are you doing?" ”

Grandpa smiled mysteriously: "You'll know at night!" ”

After breakfast, my grandfather and I lay down and went to sleep.

I was tired all night, and I slept very soundly, and when my grandfather woke me up, it was already the third pole of the moon, in the middle of the night.

The whole village was silent, and occasionally a few dog barks came, which were heard very well from afar.

I got dressed in a daze and followed my grandfather out into the yard.

My grandfather kicked the pig cage and said, "We're going to use this thing to get that kid up tonight." ”

I scratched my head: "Huh? With this? It's too cruel, isn't it? ”

My grandfather smiled: "The first step in dealing with a demon baby who has turned into evil is to smooth out his evil spirit, and then you can resolve his grievances."

Resolving grievances can be done in a channeling way, but to resolve the anger requires some unconventional means.

Ghost baby obediently, if you reason with him, he may not be able to reason with you. ”

I nodded, yes, the dead kid didn't reason with me at all last night, and he was going to kill me when he came up, and this is not a joke.

I knew that my grandfather was right, so I obediently followed him and began to prepare.

I saw that he had first plastered the outside of the pig cage with yellow paper charms, and then prepared a whole bunch of things.

A celadon bowl is filled with colorful grains.

Rural children naturally recognize that it is five grains.

My grandfather said that the meaning of cereals since ancient times is 'abundant grains, the town house is secluded', this thing is very effective against evil worship, but it needs some other things to be more effective.

He took out a large needle in the medicine box and handed it to me: "Take it, if that ghost baby comes at you in a while, you will spray him with this." ”

I took the big needle, looked at the pitch-black liquid inside, felt the fishy smell coming from the tip of my nose, and asked strangely, "Grandpa, aren't you a Chinese medicine doctor?" When did I start playing with injections? ”

My grandfather laughed and scolded: "That's black dog blood, used to suppress evil spirits." ”

I really want to tell him that I don't need this thing, even with my bare hands, I can take over that dead child.

But after thinking about it, I still obediently held the needle in the palm of my hand, hand-to-hand combat is too dangerous, don't look at me beating that dead child It's cool, in case he gives me a shot, and I don't dodge, it will be even more cool.

In the end, my grandfather turned out the white paper and small scissors, quickly cut into a small person, with a red rope to do it, wrote my name on it, and chanted a spell to the little man for a long time, and then threw the little paper man into the pig cage, the other end of the red rope handed me and said, you pay attention to it for a while, if the ghost baby gets into the pig cage, you pull it out, remember, this is your stand-in, if it is harmed, your body will also be harmed.

What the? Just such a piece of broken paper, is it my stand-in? It hurts, and so do I?

Damn, use my stand-in as bait, you're still not my own grandfather?

I rolled my eyes strangely, looked at my grandfather with some resentment, and said, "This, it's too dangerous, isn't it?" ”

My grandfather pinched my nose and said, "Coward, as long as you pull it, the piece of paper will come out, what are you afraid of?" Besides, I saw yesterday that the ghost baby is obviously coming at you, and he won't take the bait if he doesn't use you as bait.

Besides, although this piece of paper is connected to you, it is your other life, and there is something wrong with it, it can help you withstand a disaster. ”

So amazing? But why do I still feel hanging?

I sighed, "Okay. ”

At this moment, the distant barking of the dog suddenly turned into a wail, and the miserable and terrible barking of the dog stopped abruptly, and I felt that the air around me was much colder.

"It's coming!"

My grandfather frowned, and quickly hid in the shadows behind the gate with the peachwood sword and the bowl of grains.

This old man, just throw myself here?

I glanced at him and saw that he was gesturing at me.

Didn't you have time to tell me to hide?

I looked at the way he waved his hand, and immediately understood, jumped into the pigsty next to me, and fell on my stomach with a pop, feeling that my face was cold and slimy, and his uncle's was pig dung.

The old sow in the pigsty was so frightened by my movements that she stood up and whirled.

I said in my heart, don't lean on me, just its weight of nearly 300 catties, won't it crush me apart all at once?

Fortunately, this guy seemed to be a little scared, and his huge body kept leaning against the wall, and he didn't come to me at all.

I hid at the base of the murky pigsty wall, my eyes peering out into the courtyard through the gap between the bricks.

The yard was quiet, there was nothing, and the dead child hadn't yet appeared.

Tonight's pigsty doesn't know what's going on, I don't know if it's inductive, the old sow seems to be scared to the point of weakness, pulling a lot of pig manure, this is called a stinking sky, I forced the vomiting mind in the pigsty, the heart said that the dead child you don't show up again, I am anxious to get out one step ahead of you.

Just when I was about to take it anymore and prepare to change places, I felt a gust of wind blowing in the yard, and the temperature of the air dropped a lot with this gust of wind, and I felt that my heart was cold.

I felt this many times yesterday, and it was a sign of the appearance of demons.

I know, the dead child is coming.

Where will he come from?

I looked at the walls around me and keenly sensed that there was a burst of black gas floating around the walls of Grandpa Liu's house.

Damn, the dead child didn't go through the gate and climbed the wall!

I hurriedly turned my attention away, only to find that there was indeed a head poking out of it.

But it was not the little head of the dead child, but the head of an adult, which was slender, and with the appearance of that head, the long body also floated up.

A snow-white plain dress fluttered in the air and fell into the courtyard of my house.

He didn't care about the pigsty in the yard at all, but ran straight to the pigsty where I was hiding.

I finally got a good look at his face, one with a pointed monkey cheek.

His uncle's is actually Liu Quan's bastard.
