Chapter 129 The Centennial Bridegroom Ghost

As soon as I heard Tongtong's words, I immediately became more vigilant, quietly walked to the sparse corn field, and looked towards the direction of the pond hut.

Although it is already No. 14, the moonlight is very bright, but it is difficult to see clearly from a little distance. Fortunately, there is water wiped by Tongtong on my eyelids.

At this time, a person appeared on the path opposite the pond hut. In fact, it should be said to be a ghost, a male ghost.This ghost is wearing a black long gown, the kind used in the late Qing Dynasty, with a black hat on his head and a big red flower hanging on his chest, the kind used for marrying wives.The whole body looks like the groom's official dress in the movie, and he is not from this era at all. It has been hundreds of years since he died by visual inspection.

This ghost is tall, more than 1.8 meters five by visual inspection, he is floating without touching the ground, the big black gown is fluttering with the wind, it feels empty inside, as if there is no body in the gown.That paper-white face was not what a human face should look like at all, it looked like a white paper man.Unlike ordinary ghosts who cannot see the face and legs, the fact that the bridegroom ghost can appear in such a state shows that it has been around for some time.The ghosts who can have this ability are firstly because they have a lot of resentment when they die, and secondly, they die in a good place, a living burial place created by heaven and earth, and this kind of place will not rot if they bury their bodies.

My heart rose to the top of my throat, and I saw the ghost of the bridegroom drifting towards the hut. When he reached the door of the hut, he didn't knock on the door.

The bridegroom ghost stood like this for more than half an hour, and finally got close to the door of the hut. The strange thing was that it didn't raise its hand to knock on the door, but the door made a "dong dong" knocking sound.

I had already agreed with Sangu beforehand that it was not me who knocked on the door, so now I haven't heard her ask who is outside.

I took out the bronze knife and prepared to call Tongtong to rush up together, but at this moment, Sangu's frightened voice sounded in the small room, and she yelled "God Immortal!"

Then I saw a big black dog coming out through the wall, and the groom ghost turned back and fled immediately. The dog Daxian chased after it, and Tongtong came out of the pond and chased after it, and disappeared into the darkness together.

I turned on the flashlight and jumped out of the cornfield, yelling "Oops, let it run away, the third aunt was too anxious, and when I knocked on the door, I was so scared that I called the dog god, I was not ready."

I immediately went to the door of the small house and asked Sangu if she was okay!

The third aunt said that she was scared to death. After I opened the door and walked in, she told me that it was really useful to call the dog Daxian, and the knock on the door stopped as soon as I called, and asked me if I was a ghost or a thief, and if I had been caught.

I lit the kerosene lamp and told Sangu that it was a ghost, but I was scared away by her calling the dog a fairy.

The third aunt was still terrified, so I asked me to help her up and tell her everything I saw just now.

After I told you, the third aunt was even more frightened, and said that she didn't expect it to be caused by dirty things, but she invited someone to see it and said she sent it away. Now this ghost is looking for it again?
I told her that not everyone who can send ghosts is so clever. The immortals enshrined in the family are divided into strengths and weaknesses. Maybe this ghost is stronger than the immortals enshrined in their family. How can they be sent away like this!

The third aunt asked me to carry her home quickly, she would never dare to approach this place again, her hands and feet are weak now, that's why she was terrified and yelled Gou Daxian.Because she knew I was outside, she wasn't so scared, otherwise she would have fainted or even died of fright.

I immediately carried Sangu back home, Ye Feiji and the others were already asleep, Tongtong came back not long after I put Sangu on the bed.She was standing not far from the door, and I walked over, and Tongtong told me that the ghost had disappeared in the cowshed in the next village, and even she and Gou Daxian couldn't find it, so they returned.

I went back to the room and asked my third aunt to take the dog tooth, went out to the door and let Gou Daxian slip back in, and took it back to the room for Sangu to take it, telling her not to be afraid, just call Gou Daxian if you have something to do.

Tongtong and I went out, and she took me directly to a dilapidated old brick house, saying that the cowshed where the ghost was hiding was in this house.

This dilapidated big house was built with green bricks, and it was obvious from a glance that it was the old house of a wealthy landlord.

Tong Tong and I walked in and saw that the inside was covered with all kinds of weeds, and the walls were covered with wild loofah vines.The old house is divided into three parts, the hall, the patio, and the front door. All the doors in the house are rotten, and the whole house is just an empty shell.There are many rooms in the old blue-brick house. I counted seven or eight rooms. There are four rooms on both sides of the hall, two rooms on both sides of the patio, and two rooms in front.

Tongtong took me to the door of the room on the right side of the courtyard, and said that I was hiding in this room.

I shone in with a flashlight, and saw two cows inside, a big cow and a calf. The eyes of the cows were green like demon eyes by the flashlight.

I took out the bronze knife and walked into the room with a flashlight in one hand. Immediately, a smell of cow dung came to my nostrils. Fortunately, I was used to the smell after herding a lot of cows when I was young.

The windows of the room were covered with cobwebs, and there were cockroaches running around on the wall. At this moment, I was standing in the room one meter away from the door, looking around with a flashlight.Tong Tong said that the ghost of the bridegroom hid in this room, but the bronze knife didn't respond, it turned red when it touched the spirit of the ghost.Although Tongtong is by my side, she has long lost her ghostly aura, so as long as Tongtong doesn't touch the bronze knife, she will be fine.

I don't understand. According to Tong Tong, the bridegroom ghost is in this room. There is nothing in the room. Where can the ghost hide, and even Tong Tong and Gou Daxian can't find it.

I went to other rooms, all of which were empty, and some rooms had attics, but I dared not climb up because they were in disrepair for a long time, and I was afraid that they would collapse if I climbed up.Let Tongtong go up to the attic, but didn't see anything. It stands to reason that this kind of deserted old house is a paradise for lonely souls and wild ghosts. How could there be nothing?

I quit the old house and let Tong Tong go back to the bead. On the way back, I was very puzzled and planned to ask the old people in the village about the situation of the old house at dawn.

After returning home, the third aunt hadn't fallen asleep yet, so she told me that she didn't dare to sleep!I was afraid that the ghost would come to the window to find her when she fell asleep and asked me what to do.

I moved a stool to her bedside to tell her to sleep peacefully, and I just sat here and guarded it. When it comes, I will be able to make it unable to leave again.

I just sat on this stool and fell asleep without knowing it. At dawn the next day, my third aunt woke me up and said that she slept well last night, let me go to bed too!
I told Sangu that I was already asleep and there were important things to do!It's okay to sleep again at noon, so I walked to another room, Ye Feiji was still sleeping soundly, Xiao Jianzaki had already woken up, and looked at me with open eyes.

Sister Xuefei was cooking breakfast. I took the two packs of cigarettes and went out. I walked under the big banyan tree at the entrance of the village and saw many old people sitting there waiting to bask in the sun.I have observed these old people, most of them are in their 90s and 70s. In rural areas, people in their 90s and [-]s still have to do farm work.

There were seven old people in total, and all of them were men. I walked up immediately, and every one of them was very polite and called "Mrs. Gong".This appellation was used by our great-grandpa generation. All men are called "Grandma" and women are called "Mother-in-law".Calling "uncle" or "uncle" to people from the grandpa generation is as common as calling uncle and aunt directly to people who saw their parents on TV.

These old people asked me where I came from, and I said it was Huang Yao, who also belonged to Zhaoping County, and they knew it.

After I called all the old people, I took out cigarettes and shared two with each of them, bragging with them, asking them to tell ghost stories they encountered when they were young.But what they said was not related to the old house I went to last night. There are too many people here, so I can't ask openly.After nine o'clock in the morning, some old people went home for breakfast one after another, and finally there was one gray-haired one who hadn't left yet.

This old man’s surname is Qiu, so I’ll call him Grandpa Qiu, but for the sake of easy reading, let’s write it as Grandpa here!Qiu Taigong is 89 years old this year, but he still has good ears and teeth and good health.According to him, he was born in this village and never left. His son was 60 years old and had a short life. He passed away last year.He has a grandson who is the leader of a bank in Wuzhou. Although he has settled down in Wuzhou, he visits him every month.

After chatting with Taigong Qiu, I asked about the abandoned old brick house in the next village.

Qiu Taigong squinted his eyes and fell into the memory. It took a long time to turn his head and tell me that the old house had been abandoned when he was a child. The production team in the 60s wanted to demolish it, but just as soon as they started, two bricks flew down from the roof, killing two people on the spot. No one dared to demolish it, and it has been abandoned until now.

I asked Taigong Qiu, do you know what happened to the old blue brick house, or are there any stories about the old house in the village?

Mr. Qiu said yes, the old house belonged to a landlord, and it is said that the landlord's son hanged himself on the night when he married his wife, but no one knew why he hanged himself.After the landlord's son hanged himself to death, the daughter-in-law who had just passed the house for a day also ran back to her mother's house. The old landlord and his wife couldn't stand the blow and died that day.It was such a happy night, but suddenly turned into the death of the whole family, how miserable it is!

As soon as I heard Mr. Qiu's words, I stood up in shock and lit another cigarette for Mr. Qiu, asking him to tell me everything he knew and heard.

Taigong Qiu took a puff of the cigarette, tilted his mouth and sprayed all the smoke on my face, saying that I am young and curious!But he doesn't know anymore, this happened before he was born, the house was deserted when he was a child, this is what his father told him when he was a child, telling him not to play in that house.

I asked him again if the son of the landlord who had hanged himself was tall and wore a long black gown on his wedding night.

Qiu Taigong sprayed cigarettes on my face again, saying that he really didn't know, it was time to go home and have breakfast, and asked me to bring another pack of cigarettes the next day, and he would tell me other stories.As he said that, Taigong Qiu stood up, put his hands behind his back, and went home in a hurry, leaving me with a depressed face.

I went to the next village, and went outside the old blue brick house, and saw a lot of big spider webs under the eaves. At this time, a middle-aged man with a swollen face came out, holding a cowherd in his hand. Rope, followed by two cows.

I immediately went up to ask something, but the man sprayed me with saliva, scolding me and asking me why a child came here.
