Chapter 91 There are more ghosts than people in the village
[Fairy Huo's daily fortune-telling: The Buddhist beads and bells in your hands will attract fierce ghosts. The fierce ghosts will get familiar with your breath on the first night. Within three days, your whole family will be taken away by the fierce ghosts.]
Yang Xiaoqing felt horrified.
She showed this text to Yang's father and mother.
The two were also startled.
Mother Yang grabbed Yang Xiaoqing's arm and said, "What should we do? We are definitely not the only ones in the village who received this thing. The village chief and others, and your aunt..."
Father Yang's face looked a little heavy.
"Let's notify the villagers first. We can't just stand by and watch someone die."
Yang Xiaoqing shook her head decisively, "No!"
She took a deep breath and said slowly in the face of her parents' confused gazes: "Now the villagers regard the words of Mr. Wen and the monk as sacred. If we expose them now, they won't believe us."
Don't underestimate the power of faith.
Yang Xiaoqing didn't dare to gamble her own life against the conscience of the villagers.
It is obvious that Mr. and Mrs. Yang have not given up the idea of helping the villagers.
"Xiaoqing, you can't be so cold-blooded. We are all from the same village. You can't give up saving them just because you suspect they trust the bald donkey and the man surnamed Wen more."
"They watched you grow up, too, Xiaoqing."
Yang Xiaoqing clutched her parents' arms tightly, her brain working rapidly, trying her best to stay rational and not be overwhelmed by the fear.
"Dad, Mom, listen to me. Now it's not a question of who the villagers trust more."
"We can't make a fuss!"
"Mr. Wen and the monk have something that can summon ghosts. If they use the powerful ghosts to fight us, the whole village will be wiped out!"
Yang's father and mother fell silent.
Yes, we are all ordinary people with mortal eyes.
How can it be compared with those crooked ways?
They really wanted to save the villagers.
But what if the price is to sacrifice your own life?
Can anyone really be so generous and selfless?
Yang's father and mother thought they couldn't do it.
Yang Xiaoqing immediately said: "Dad, Mom, what we need to do now is to quickly pick up Master Huo."
It is better to leave professional matters to professionals.
Yang Xiaoqing has a very clear understanding of her rookie nature.
She thought it would be better for her not to cause trouble.
Yang Xiaoqing sent a private message to Huo Ning in the background asking for the address.
However, Huo Ning rejected her proposal.
[Fairy Huo's daily fortune-telling: No, your parents are likely to be attacked by snakes when they go out, so you should watch over them at home.]
Yang Xiaoqing was stunned.
Didn’t Master Huo say that if we burn the talisman for three days, everything will be fine?
Why do they still get retaliated by the snakes!
[Fairy Huo's daily fortune-telling: I told you before that you must be sincere. Nothing went wrong in the past two days, but the problem occurred today.]
Tears welled up in Yang Xiaoqing's eyes.
She looked at Yang's father and mother aggrievedly, "Why don't you believe me!"
"After today, we will be free from snake disasters!"
"Now all our efforts have been in vain. You two can't even leave the house!"
She is really tired and exhausted. Why can't her parents trust her a little more?
Yang's father and mother remained silent, feeling remorseful in their hearts.
My daughter has told me that Master Huo is amazing, so why am I so bewildered that I have to believe in that bald donkey and that witch?
The couple shed tears silently, and the three of them were speechless for a while.
…
It was already three o'clock in the afternoon when Huo Ning arrived at the village.
She walked to Yang Xiaoqing's house and knocked gently.
Yang Xiaoqing asked through the door, "Who is that?" After hearing Huo Ning's voice, she almost knelt down as soon as she opened the door.
"Wuwuwu, Master Huo, you are finally back!"
"If you don't come, I feel like I'm going to die in the village!"
Yang Xiaoqing hugged Huo Ning's arm and cried her heart out.
Huo Ning's mouth twitched, and he pulled his arm back, "Let's talk business."
Yang Xiaoqing nodded in confusion.
However, Yang's father and mother lowered their heads and did not dare to look at Huo Ning.
"Master Huo, how do you know where my home is?"
Yang Xiaoqing poured Huo Ning a glass of water and asked curiously.
Although she gave the specific address, their house was actually quite difficult to find.
Huo Ning took a sip of the water and said casually, "I just caught a ghost and asked him."
She originally wanted to ask someone.
However, when I got to the village entrance, I saw that every door was closed and there was no one in sight. I had no choice but to ask the ghost.
Huo Ning sighed: "Your village is quite amazing, there are more ghosts than people."
Yang family: "..."
Well, this is really depressing news.
Huo Ning added, "If I don't buy a ticket today, Tong Village will be completely reduced to a ghost village tomorrow morning."
"Everyone in the village died overnight. It was reported on social news. It shouldn't be a big deal."
Yang family: "..."
Yang Xiaoqing was about to cry, "Master, please stop talking."
"Okay." Huo Ning spread his hands and took back the more frightening words. "Who among you knows where babies are abandoned in the village? Take me there."
She could actually do the math herself.
But she is lazy.
If you can trouble others, don't make things difficult for yourself.
"I know."
Mother Yang raised her head, looking somewhat sad and solemn.
There is an abandoned baby tower in Tong Village, with bones piled up like a mountain, including the skeletons of newborn babies.
There were the skeletons of a baby of three or four years old.
Every night, there were sounds similar to wolf howling at the side of the tower, as if the beasts were also mourning for these poor babies.
When she was a child, she was almost thrown into the baby tower by her grandmother.
Father Yang showed a worried look on his face. "The abandoned infant tower is on the mountain. The village chief has said that no outsiders can enter the mountain. Now there are probably people guarding every foot of the mountain."
"And you just said that we would encounter snakes when we go out..."
Huo Ning glanced at Father Yang.
"You won't run into any snakes when I'm here. Just point the way."
Yang Xiaoqing smiled slyly and patted his chest.
"Leave it to me!"
"I know a way that no one else knows!"
When she was a child, she loved to play and ran to the mountains every day. She discovered several mountain roads that no one else knew about.
But I haven't walked here for many years, so I guess the road will be a bit difficult.
But avoiding the villagers is definitely not a problem!
Huo Ning thought for a moment and said, "By the way, take two hatchets and sickles."
Yang Xiaoqing thought she was going to take the hatchet and let them chop off some thorns when they saw them.
Unexpectedly, after reaching the deserted edge of the mountain, Huo Ning looked at the thorny bushes, chanted a long spell, and then grabbed the air twice with his hands.
An old evil ghost in a Tang suit and a fierce ghost in white clothes and a white skirt immediately appeared in front of me.
Huo Ning immediately showed his elegant and easy-going nature, "Cut these grasses and thorns for me, quickly, or I won't be able to save you!"
Two ghosts: "..."
The two ghosts began to do as they were told, cursing. In less than two minutes, the road ahead was bright.
Yang Xiaoqing was shocked.
Yang's father and mother were even more grateful that they had listened to Xiaoqing and not made any alarm.
Otherwise, they might have been beaten to death by the bald donkey and the witch who controlled the fierce ghosts.
After all, these masters can control ghosts to do things for them!
The three of them came all the way to the Abandoned Infant Tower.
A female ghost, her body covered in blood and her clothes stained red by blood, was wandering outside the door with a wandering gaze.
Behind her, there were so many ghost babies that it was impossible to see the end of them.
These ghost babies are all girls without exception.
