Chapter 625 The man who weeds in the middle of the night
The yin energy above the head was still circling like during the day. Li Mazi sat for a while and was out of patience, but I felt that there would be abnormalities in the middle of the night.
In order to prevent the possible shock of the ghost spirit, I hid under the bed with Li Mazi and put a sunshade on my body. As the night deepened, the surroundings gradually became quiet, and only He Kui's snoring was left in my ears.
I looked sideways through the window and found that the sky was cloudy outside and there was no moon. I was even more convinced that the ghost would come out.
But as time went by, my confidence gradually disappeared. By the time it was past two o'clock, the yin energy on my head remained the same, and I couldn't help but feel a little discouraged, and Li Mazi had already fallen asleep under the bed.
It seems that the Yin Ling will not come tonight, so I woke Li Mazi up and crawled out from under the bed. After Li Mazi got up, he muttered and said, "Brother Zhang, I'm sleeping well, why are you knocking around?"
"What did I knock?"
I was a little confused by what he said, and I said angrily.
Li Mazi exclaimed, then moved his ears a few times before shook his head and said, "I clearly heard the sound of crutches just now, and thought you were knocking..."
Before he could finish speaking, I covered his mouth, then lay down and put my ears on the ground and listened carefully. Sure enough, I heard a vague sound of a cane-like knocking from the ground, as if someone was walking around.
The sound came from the ground. I was about to ask Li Mazi to dig the floor with a shovel, but the sound suddenly became farther away, as if it was heading towards the door. I quickly got up, held the Tianlang Whip and chased out.
Because only when I get close to the ground can I hear the sound, I have to lie on the ground and listen to it after chasing me for a while. When I chased me to the entrance of the village, I lay down again, but I never heard any more movement.
"After... lost?"
Li Mazi asked in a daze. I nodded helplessly, patted the soil on my body and walked home.
"Brother Zhang, I think the movement just now was made by Mr. He. What do you think?"
On the way back, Li Mazi asked in a low voice, and I found that this kid suddenly became much smarter since he was seriously injured last time.
"It should be him."
I nodded and said, during the day, I felt that Mr. He's body was no longer in the grave, and I further determined this idea through the movement just now.
Moreover, ordinary ghosts cannot walk underground at all, so he is likely to be a zombie!
After returning to the room, I squatted by the basin to wash the dust on my face, but Li Mazi exclaimed. I quickly turned around and found that he was staring at the roof with a dull face. I subconsciously looked up and suddenly found that the yin energy surrounding the roof had disappeared.
"What's going on here? Could it be that the old man took away the evil spirit?"
Li Mazi calmed down for a long time before coming back to her senses and asked with some confusion. I don’t know what’s going on, but it’s never a bad thing to disappear.
I was not in the mood to sleep after this incident, so I simply hit the floor and lay on the ground with Li Mazi and waited. When it was almost dawn, a slight sound suddenly came from the quiet underground. I sat up and winked at Li Mazi.
He was stunned for a moment and understood what I meant, lay on the ground and listened, then reached out and pointed to the ground.
I moved quietly in the direction of his fingers. After a while, Li Mazi's finger stopped. He then listened for a while before getting up and said to me, "Let's go."
I quickly drew a circle under my feet with my Emei thorns, then looked up and the yin energy began to circle on my head again.
"Do you want to dig it open?" Li Mazi tried to ask.
I thought about it and said I would wait until dawn! After all, the one who came just now was probably Mr. He, not to mention that the things below were very yin, so I dug it better during the day.
"That's fine. Judging from this attitude, it's like this every day, so don't worry about it running away."
Li Mazi nodded with deep conscience, and then we took advantage of the dawn to take a quick break and took a nap.
I don’t know how long we slept, but we were woken up by He Kui. He rubbed his palms and said with a strange look: “Master Zhang, I just went to the greenhouse and found something strange!”
It turned out that after He Kui returned to the countryside, he started to set up greenhouses and planted some off-season vegetables. He would go to the greenhouse to check it out every once in a while, but recently his daughter's health has become worse and worse, so he has no intention of going to the ground. Yesterday, I just rescued her daughter, and He Kui couldn't wait to go to the greenhouse to weed with a hoe on his back. Unexpectedly, when he went there, he found that the greenhouse was clean and there was no weed.
It seems that people are helping him weed every day during this period. The village has set up a camera for the greenhouse area to prevent anyone from stealing vegetables. He Kui then retrieved the video and wanted to see which kind-hearted person was secretly helping him.
As a result, no one had entered the greenhouse during the surveillance video!
"Brother Zhang, it seems that he is really Mr. He."
After hearing He Kui's words, Li Mazi couldn't help but say something.
Seeing this, He Kui asked me in confusion what was going on, and I told him about what happened last night.
Yesterday I thought the sound was the sound of a crutch, but now it seems it should be the sound of a hoe. Poor parents in the world, even though Mr. He died, he was still worried about his son. After hearing this, He Kui's eyes turned red and asked me what to do next?
"The old man should have been a corpse, otherwise the corpse would not move around by itself. But he must have no malice towards you. As for the yin energy that hurts the child, it should be related to the hoe used by the old man."
I tried to analyze it because after the old man took the hoe away, the yin energy disappeared. When he put the hoe back, the yin energy came back. As for why the hoe had such strong yin energy, I'm afraid that I could only dig it out to know.
After hearing this, He Kui hesitated for a long time and asked me if I could solve this problem without hurting the old man.
In fact, he had been very concerned about his father from the beginning, and it could be seen that he was really a filial child. I nodded and told him that since the old man had no malice, he should be comforted and relieved. He Kui's expression improved after hearing this and asked me if I would dig the ground now.
"Dig, take advantage of the sunshine now, it will be easier to dig!"
I opened the doors and windows, and then put a talisman around the piece of land I circled out, and then signaled He Kui to take action.
Li Mazi consciously picked up a shovel and dug it with He Kui, but the progress was very slow. Because the house was too old, it might be that when Mr. He built the house, he placed a lot of broken bricks underground to lay the foundation.
While they were digging a hole, I asked He Kui's wife to fill a basket of wood ash. Whenever they dig a little, I would sprinkle a layer of ashes inside so that they would not have too much effort.
As they dig deeper and deeper, what they dig out is no longer broken bricks, but black soil.
I squatted on the side and pinched a small pinch on the tip of my nose and smelled it, and found a very heavy smell of pig iron on it!
It seemed that the hoe was just below. He Kui and Li Mazi were already tired and sweating profusely. I was afraid that they would be rushed to the yin energy, so I called them up and went down to dig them up. At the beginning, I didn't feel much effort, but when I dug the third time, I felt a force sucking the shovel and couldn't lift it up at all. It was obvious that the thing underground began to exert force.
"Pork, sprinkle ashes on me!"
I shouted loudly, then quickly recited the "Tao Te Ching". At the same time, Li Mazi poured the remaining half of the basket of ashes in one go. Although I was choked to death, my body became lighter.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, I dug it quickly with all my strength, and the shovel suddenly made a crisp sound. I looked carefully and found a piece of iron in the soil. I quickly dug it for a while and finally dug out the thing.
As expected, this was a rusty hoe, with pools of black marks on the hoe handle, and it seemed that blood had been scattered on it.
I asked Li Mazi to throw the hoe into the yard. When I looked up, I saw that the yin energy on my head had dissipated. I struck while the iron was hot and made some Feng Shui changes to the small objects in the room. Soon all the yin energy in the room disappeared, and even a little more vigorous energy was added.
After He Kui heard that the Yin Qi had dissipated, he was about to fill the pit. I stopped him and said with a smile: "The old man should come to get the hoe tonight."
"I understand." He nodded, his eyes turning redder.
