Chapter 228

I think about Xu Cong day and night.

He ran up to her in such a gloomy manner.

Child: So I am so lucky?

Faced with such a bizarre scene, the child did not retreat but rushed forward joyfully, asking as he rushed over, "Where have you been? Why did you come to me just now? I've been looking for you for days, and I'm so worried."

She smiled so hard that her teeth were showing, and she came closer and closer. Who is this? ! !

She ran straight away without looking around, yelling at the clueless fog ahead, "Wait for me! Why are you running? Oh, I'm really getting anxious! Look at you! You just love to joke around! Fine, I'll chase you! Run! I'll catch up with you soon!"

She yelled at the top of her lungs, her voice particularly genuine, her legs swinging like wheels. Not only did she leave an afterimage, she was almost sending out sparks.

That 'Xu Cong' crossed his arms and snorted coldly. He was not in a hurry at all. He just waited for this pretentious little girl to get confused and run back.

It's too naive to try this on him.

Xu Cong stood in the thick fog, humming left and right, humming again and again, and suddenly his face changed drastically: "Wait a minute? Why did she run away?"

Could it be that she really couldn't see?

The child, who could see everything clearly, rushed out of the ghost wall in a daze.

He ran away without even looking back, not even returning home, but went straight to the yamen. The moment the yamen runners closed the door, he rushed in, closed the door, locked it, and dragged the stone lantern over to hold the door open.

The yamen runner who was knocked to the ground by her struggled to get up: "What do you want to do?"

The child who was peeking out of the door stretched out his hand without turning his head: "Give me a talisman to drive away ghosts."

"Okay." The yamen runner came over and pressed a talisman on the back of her head. Then he took out a rope and tied her hands. He was quite polite and said, "Thank you for the trouble. Give me the other one too."

Child:?

Small eyes, big doubts.

"I'm a ghost?"

The yamen runner pursed his lips and said, "Will anyone push me two miles away?"

What he said was very exaggerated, but he still told the children that ordinary ghosts could not enter the yamen.

It's right to hide here, but it's too hateful to bump into people. He worked so hard for the safety of the people all day, his legs became so thin, and he was kind enough to close the door for others at night. I can't say that good people will be rewarded, but at least they shouldn't be punished badly, right?

What are you doing?

"Am I holding my head high and my chest out so you can break my ribs?"

The yamen runner was so sad that he almost cried.

The child knew he was in the wrong and quickly asked him: "Are you okay? Are you going to die?"

She had heard that some people who were seriously injured looked fine, but in fact died faster than those who fell to the ground.

Yamen runner: ...

He was so angry that he put his hands on his hips and said, "What kind of words are you talking about?"

Child: "That's good. I'll find you a doctor. I'm still young and can't pay with my life."

She rolled up her sleeves and held out her hand again, "Can you lend me some money?"

Yamen runner: ...

"What?" He couldn't even believe his ears.

When An Xi came over, the yamen runners were so angry that they were about to collapse.

It has always been the case that others have only given them money. Whenever they get hit by a car, they have to pay for seeing a doctor.

In fact, what she wants is not money, but life, right?

The bailiff understood!

This is the wronged spirit coming to take your life!

If he wasn't afraid that An Xi wouldn't like to hear it, he would have really planned to arrest her based on this statement.

Unfortunately, it didn't work. An Xi knew the nature of these people. If he threw a piece of silver to him and told him to see a doctor, he would be fine.

He laughed and said, "Oh, Captain, you're sorry for the expense. It's not that serious. I'll go find some medicine and apply it on it."

He left happily.

An Xi looked at the child and said, "Two taels, remember to return it to me."

"I'll send it to your house tomorrow morning." The child felt a little heartbroken, but answered readily.

Then he hurriedly took her to find the ghost.

Of course, the ghosts have gone and the streets are empty, leaving only a faint smell of evil spirits on the road, which is very smelly.

If it were daytime, the child could follow the black air, but it was pitch dark and she could only sniff here and there, and soon lost the clue.

Anxi asks her if she recognizes the ghost.

The child stood with his hands behind his back: "We've never met before, are you here to seek revenge?"

An Xi stuffed the book of strange stories that had a corner of it sticking out of her arms back into her arms: "Read less of these things. If you don't have a strong mind, it can easily hurt your brain."

She cursed him softly, then thought for a moment and said, "But he came to you and said those things, so there must be a reason. It's not safe for you to go back. How about this? I'll go with you to pick up Aunt Shangyu and let her stay at my house first. We can talk about it later when she's settled down."

"Okay, I'm going to take the pumpkin."

"as you like."

An Xi didn't really care what she brought or didn't bring. Recently, these mysteries had been popping up one after another, which really made her exhausted.

I don’t even have time to play with my favorite fireworks.

The child could see that she was very upset, but she couldn't do anything to help, so she could only keep her mouth shut.

This strange honesty made An Xi a little wary.

"What bad idea are you thinking of?"

The child who finally became sensible:...I understand, she asked me that!

"I wonder if this ghost knows the whereabouts of Xu Cong."

"It's not impossible, but everything we say now is just speculation," An Xi asked calmly after quietly sticking a talisman behind her. "Besides seeing the black energy and knowing he's a man, what else did you see?"

"I saw...he was a little short." The child said as he recalled.

An Xi: "Anything else? Nothing else?"

The child blushed and said, "It was too dark and foggy. I was in a hurry to run, so I was lucky to see him clearly. I still remember that he had a fat belly, a small head, and a not-so-good-looking face."

"Okay, okay, I know you tried your best. If it were someone else, they probably wouldn't even dare to look at it," An Xi said perfunctorily, thinking, "But if you think about it the way you said... being short, having a fat belly, a small head, and not good-looking, what would that look like?"

“It’s just what a human looks like,” the child said.

An Xi didn't think of people, she thought of toads...

The thought was quite vivid... The thing puffed up its cheeks and made a gurgling sound in her head for a long time.

"Are you sure it's a ghost? Is it possible it's a monster?"

"That shouldn't be the case. I could feel the cold air when I got close to him. He smelled as bad as a demon. Do monsters have this smell too?"

The child wasn't very sure.

Anyway, few of the monsters she had seen had human heads, and even if they did, they were exceptionally beautiful heads.

And if it's a monster, she will see a double image of the real monster.

The child didn't think it was, but it was so dark at the time that she might have seen it wrong.
