When we drove back to my small shop, there was a man and a woman standing at the door. These two people are the man and woman we saw in Lakshmi Village.
After Second Brother stopped the car, I got out and asked,"May I ask what business you have in front of my shop?”When the two of them heard my question, the woman said,"We are adventure lovers. We came here to see the red undergarment you received a few days ago!”
After he finished speaking, the expressions of the three of us changed. "We've already sold that thing a long time ago. Go back to where you came from!" Second Brother said gloomily.”
When the man and woman heard the three of us say the word "red undergarment", their expressions changed. Now, we're even more certain that this thing is in our hands.
The woman continued," I can trade with you. I believe you know that I have an embroidered shoe, right?"”
I don't want to add to the chaos at this time. Too many things have happened since the beginning. Because of myself, I have already dragged Second Brother and Hei Zi into this. If we want to die, then let us die. I don't want to implicate others.
The three of us ignored these two and walked into my shop together.
This man and woman seemed to be surprised that we ignored them. The woman followed us into the shop. After entering, he said,"I know that thing is still in your hands. Actually, we came to you this time to understand one thing."”
I looked at this beauty after hearing her words. "The reason why we came to Lakshmi Village is because of a series of unbelievable things that happened recently. We had to come to that village to find out what happened.”
It was interesting to hear her say that. They wouldn't be like me, always encountering strange things, right? That's what I thought. He just wanted to ask Hei Zi and Second Brother for their opinion and see if he should let this woman continue talking about him.
But when I turned around to look at Hei Zi and Second Brother, I realized that the two of them had been looking at that man. Seeing the two of them like this, I followed their gazes and looked over.
When I looked at the man's face, I clearly saw another face gradually appear on the man's face. He had a face that seemed to be crying but also smiling.
The woman in front of me looked very strange when she saw the three of us. He turned around to look at his companion, but after looking for a long time, she did not see anything.
It seemed that many strange things had indeed happened to them. Now, this man was probably haunted by evil spirits.
I came back to my senses and said to the woman,"My name is Liu Shuang, this is Hei Zi, and that is Second Brother. Tell us what strange things you encountered. If we can help you, we will try our best to help you.”
After hearing my words, the woman didn't seem to have reacted. My attitude just now and now had a 180-degree change!
"Oh, oh, okay. My name is Chen Qi, and this is my friend. You can call him Lei Hu. He didn't like to talk, but he was good at martial arts. He was a good companion.”Chen Qi said.
"En, I understand. Now, let your companion in. Let's talk about it in detail.”I said.
Chen Qi saw that I had become so easy to talk to, so she didn't think too much about it. She said to Lei Hu,"Hu Zi, come in, come in quickly!”
After hearing Chen Qi's words, Lei Hu hesitated for a moment before walking in. Second Brother went around and closed the door. When Chen Qi saw that we had closed the door, she became vigilant.
"You don't have to be nervous. These things are very strange. We should be careful.”As I spoke, I reached out my hand to Chen Qi, meaning to shake her hand.
Chen Qi hesitated for a moment before extending her hand. After shaking hands with Chen Qi, I naturally retracted my hand. After retracting my hand to my chest, I extended it again. This time, I shook hands with Lei Hu.
Lei Hu saw Chen Qi shake my hand. When I reached out my hand, he reached out his hand too. But this time, I didn't shake his hand. I reached out my hand to slap Lei Hu's face.
Even though Lei Hu is skilled in martial arts, he was still hit by me in this situation. As my hand struck down, Lei Hu fell to the ground. Then, the entire house suddenly let out a miserable cry. This cry was not from Lei Hu. It was a woman's voice. After the shouts, the room fell silent again.
"Hey," Blackie said. It's already like this in broad daylight. Looks like you guys are really not having a good time!”After saying that, he looked at Chen Qi. Chen Qi seemed to have been frightened by the scream just now. He looked at Lei Hu in a daze.
At this moment, Second Brother opened the door and a ray of sunlight shone in. It felt very heartwarming. Second Brother walked to Lei Hu's side and carried him on his back. Then, he said to Chen Qi,"Your friend needs to sleep now. I'll put him inside!”With that, he carried Lei Hu into the house.
Chen Qi widened her eyes and looked at me."A ghost?" I looked at her expression and chuckled."Yes, there are ghosts! Come in and sit down to rest!”
Chen Qi walked into my counter and still stared at me as if she didn't understand what had just happened. I also saw through this girl's thoughts.
"Do you not understand what happened just now?”I asked on purpose.
"Yeah, what happened just now? Why was there a woman suddenly calling out? There can't be ghosts in the daytime!" Chen Qi said in confusion.
Seeing him like this, I couldn't bear to see such a beautiful woman anxious, so I told him the truth.
"When we came in just now, the three of us saw that there was something strange about this Lei Hu, but we can't alert the enemy. So I invited you two into the house and shook hands with you to gain your trust. As long as you believe me, Lei Hu will naturally let down his guard against us. So I took the opportunity to shake hands with Lei Hu and beat the ghost out of his body!”I said it clearly.
Chen Qi's eyes widened even more after hearing that. "You know how to exorcise ghosts?"
I was really embarrassed when I heard him say that. Do you want me to tell him that when we were at Qishan, Martial Uncle cleansed our bodies. After cleansing our bodies, we could see ghosts. When I was in danger, Martial Uncle told me to use lotus flowers to drive away ghosts. He could not tell Chen Qi about these things even if he was beaten to death.
I said, a little embarrassed,"I learned it from someone else. I only know a little." By the way, why did you come here?”I quickly changed the topic.
After hearing what I said, Chen Qi calmed down and said,"Oh, it's like this. Hu Zi and I like to explore. We stayed in the primeval forest for more than a month, but we found this in the forest some time ago.”After saying that, Chen Qi took out the embroidered shoe.
Looking at that shoe, I felt that this matter must have something to do with the Pear Blossom Specter.
After taking out her shoes, Chen Qi continued,"Ever since we got this shoe, I had the same dream every night. In my dream, I appeared in a very old village. I was wearing this embroidered shoe. Then, a voice told me to find my other half. Just like that, we followed the guidance of the dream and arrived at Lakshmi Village.”
Chen Qi swallowed her saliva and continued,"But on the way to Lakshmi Village, we encountered something that made us very uneasy. Every night after we rest, we can hear people talking in the house. The voice is very soft, and we can't hear what they say clearly. But when we turned on the lights, there was nothing. Every time I wake up, these embroidered shoes are on my feet. We became more and more afraid. Hu Zi had thrown this shoe away many times, but when I woke up the next day, this shoe was still on my feet. It was not until we arrived at Lakshmi Village that this shoe was not so strange.”
After hearing what Chen Qi said, I also felt that this matter was very strange. "If that's the case, how did you know I had a red undergarment?" I asked.”
Chen Qi said," When we came to Lakshmi Village, we heard that there were two items in this village. One was an embroidered shoe, and the other was a red dudou. The voice in my dream asked me to look for my other half, so I thought it was your dudou. So we waited for you here for a few days.”
Now that things are finally clear, it seems that Chen Qi is destined to be with us.
"It seems like you guys are destined to be involved in this matter.”I told Chen Qi about the strange things that had happened to me recently, as well as the notebook and the undergarment.
Of course, in order to maintain my status, I could conceal our trip to Qishan. I don't want to rely on Uncle Chen to get through all the difficulties in the eyes of a beautiful woman.
Chen Qi was also very surprised after hearing about me. At this moment, Lei Hu walked out of the house and said to Chen Qi,"Qiqi? Where are we? Why do I only remember that we were in Black Wind Ravine!”
After Qiqi heard this, she broke out in a cold sweat. Then, she looked at me and said,"This is Brother Shuang. She saved us!”
Lei Hu looked at me and called me Brother Shuang before standing next to Qiqi. He didn't say anything else.
"Chen Qi, what did you just say? Have you been to the Black Wind Ravine?" I asked in surprise.
Chen Qi said," After we arrived at Lakshmi Village, we heard from the elders in the village that the two treasures in this village were dug out from Black Wind Ravine. Hu Zi and I went to Black Wind Ravine during the day. When we first entered, we didn't feel anything. It was just that there were weeds and tall trees. Hu Zi and I were very excited when we saw this. We like this kind of forest. There's enough adventure in here. After Hu Zi and I checked our equipment, we went into the mountain.“
At this moment, Hei Zi and Liu also came to my side. The three of us listened to Chen Qi continue.
"But who knew that after we entered the mountain, the sky would suddenly darken. But looking at the time, it was exactly noon. Logically speaking, this should be the brightest time in the forest. Perhaps because the trees here are too dense, they blocked the sunlight. At this time, there were screams in the forest. It seemed that many people were doing hard labor in the forest. Those screams were the cries of pain. From time to time, there was the sound of leather whips hitting people. We followed the sound and walked in. We wanted to see who was in the forest.”
"We followed the sound for a while. When we stood on a small hill, we saw the most terrifying scene. Right in front of us were rows of people standing together. They were chained up and were digging for something desperately. However, when the two monsters with whips turned around, Hu Zi and I were scared silly. What we saw was not a human, because when the two monsters with whips turned around to look at us, they actually had no mouth or nose. They only had a pair of things that looked like eyes.”
"When they saw us, they smiled. When they smiled, their stomachs turned into a black hole, and many human faces floated out. When Hu Zi and I saw it, we knew that they were coming to harm us. Fortunately, we all had compasses in our hands and ran all the way back to the village.”
"But after returning to the village, I felt that Hu Zi was very abnormal. He didn't talk much, but when he was with me, he was still very willing to talk to me. Ever since we came back from Black Wind Ravine, he hasn't spoken a word to me. Sometimes, when he sleeps at night, he will talk to himself. I thought that he was scared by those two monsters. Maybe he will recover after a while.”
"After seeing you guys today, I found out that Hu Zi was haunted by an evil spirit. Fortunately, you guys were here today. If not for you guys, I really wouldn't know what to do.”
Chen Qi told him everything that happened at Black Wind Ravine in one breath. I'm also covered in cold sweat. This is not a matter of luck. If we hadn't gone to Qishan and met Uncle-Master, we wouldn't have seen Chen Qi bring a ghost in! Everything seemed to be destined.
After Hu Zi heard Chen Qi's words, he no longer looked wary of us. Instead, he looked grateful. "Brother Shuang, thank you," Hu Zi said honestly.
The atmosphere was originally quite quiet, but Hu Zi's simple and honest voice made everyone laugh. Hu Zi smiled honestly.
I looked at the two of them and said,"Chen Qi, the two of you can stay with me for now. This matter is not simple. We have to be prepared!"”
After Chen Qi heard that, she looked at Hu Zi and said,"Alright, I feel that this matter is very strange now. It's good that we live together. We can take care of each other.”
That night, Hu Zi and Chen Qi moved into my small house. The already small shop was now even more crowded. I want Chen Qi and Hu Zi to sleep in the back room, and then the three of us will move to the front. However, Hu Zi said that he and Chen Qi slept separately.
This makes things much easier for me. Now, the four of us are sleeping in the back room. I've built a bed for Chen Qi in the front room, and she's sleeping in the front room.
