He looked away in disappointment, turned around and wanted to try the ghost hand, but suddenly thought that his parents were still next door not far away.
In the same yard, the original owner has died, and his parents should not be spared either.
He stood there hesitating, wanting to go in and see what was going on inside, but he was a little timid. After all, he had never seen a dead person with his own eyes. Finally, he thought again and said solemnly to the easternmost room,
"Don't worry, I will avenge you!"
In addition to the clear meaning of this statement, it also means that Hou Jiuming strengthens his inner thoughts. If he does not kill the ghosts, he will not be able to live.
Between the two parties, it was life and death from the beginning.
If Hou Jiuming wants to live, he can only kill ghosts.
…………
A sleepless night.
Before dawn the next day, Hou Jiuming began to make preparations.
I didn't sleep all night last night. In addition to being uncomfortable and confused when I first came here, I also made a preliminary plan on how to kill the ghosts.
After hastily eating some cornbread that irritated my throat, I went out with a hatchet and a cane.
Don't rely on strength to kill ghosts alone.
All he could think of were some methods from previous film and television works.
Black dog blood, rooster blood, peach wood, willow branches, and finally, child urine.
I don’t have the first few things at home, but I only have the last one, which I carry with me everywhere. I was born single for eighteen years and am absolutely authentic as a child.
Following my memory, I came to a house not far from my home.
Looking at the dilapidated and closed door, I raised my hand and knocked.
"Bang bang bang~"
"Second Master, open the door. I am Jiu Ming!"
"Bang bang bang~"
Just after two knocks, there was a "creak~" sound of the wooden door opening in the courtyard, followed by a burst of footsteps and worried words,
"You bastard, why are you running around blindly if you don't stay at home to recuperate?"
While they were talking, the closed door opened, and an old man with white beard and hair, but extremely energetic, came out. When he saw Hou Jiuming, he quickly stepped forward to help him and walked home.
"Second Master, my parents are gone!"
The second master, who was helping Hou Jiuming to walk in, stopped immediately when he heard this, as if he couldn't believe it. However, thinking of the current situation in the village, he reluctantly accepted it and said in a complicated tone,
"It's good to go, so you don't have to worry all day long. Let's go, take me there and see them off for the last time!" He thought Hou Jiuming came over to ask him to preside over the funeral for his parents.
But unexpectedly, Hou Jiuming refused and said, "Second Master, I don't want to continue like this. Instead of waiting for death in frustration, it's better to fight that evil ghost directly!"
The second master, who was still immersed in the news of the death of his descendant, suddenly heard Hou Jiuming say this and was obviously a little overwhelmed. He turned to look at his eldest brother's grandson whom he had not seen for a few days.
Unexpectedly, I found that this kid's demeanor had undergone a huge change.
Some time ago, when this kid learned that people in the village were being killed by ghosts one after another and there was nowhere to escape, he became decadent and chose to give up on himself.
But now, he saw firm determination in the other party's eyes.
"Could it be that the death of his parents stimulated Xiao Ming and caused him to change?"
Although he didn't know what happened to Hou Jiuming to make him change so much, the second master still decided to support his junior. Anyway, it was already the worst outcome. No matter how bad it could be, it could only be a step earlier.
"If you need anything from me, just tell me and I'll help you!"
"Thank you, Second Master!" Seeing that Second Master chose to help him without asking any questions, Hou Jiuming was moved in his heart, "This is family affection and unconditional trust!"
…………
Next, the grandfather and grandson first went to Hou Jiuming's house to settle down the original parents, which meant tidying up their disguises and covering them with straw mats, and then they started running around the village.
It took a whole day to get everything done.
At night, all the remaining villagers gathered in the Houwan Village Ancestral Hall.
Everyone has more or less weapons in their hands.
Kitchen knives, manure forks, hatchets, long sticks, all kinds of things are available.
In addition to these, there are also some slightly stronger people holding long whips made of willow branches and sharp peeled peach wood sticks.
And within easy reach, there were sealed bamboo tubes.
These are all the results of Hou Jiuming's hard work during the day.
When he first heard that he was going to resist, those people looked at him strangely.
But with the participation of some unwilling people, the remaining people seemed to have figured out that instead of waiting for death, it would be better to take the initiative and maybe break two of the evil ghost's teeth.
As a result, the whole village gathered in the ancestral hall.
…………
Time passed bit by bit, and soon it was midnight.
Tonight, it was another cloudy day, with dark clouds covering the entire sky, not a trace of moonlight missing.
Usually, ghosts appear at this time.
Today was no exception. When the old man in the village estimated that the time was midnight, a cold wind suddenly blew out of thin air outside.
Then, Hou Jiuming noticed that the same green light as last night appeared at the entrance of the village.
"Here we come!" Hou Jiuming couldn't help but remind everyone.
Hearing this, everyone was frightened and couldn't help but cheer up, staring nervously at the door of the ancestral hall.
"Woo~wu~wu~"
The cold autumn wind passed through the alley, making sounds like ghosts crying.
The atmosphere of the ghost's arrival makes it even more terrifying.
I don’t know why the ghost is looking for its target. When it appears, it goes straight to the ancestral hall with a clear purpose, as if it already knows that everyone is gathering here.
"Chickens and dogs are bloody, children are ready to urinate!" Seeing the ghost coming straight towards him, Hou Jiuming did not dare to delay and immediately gave the order.
As soon as the words were spoken, the person who had been assigned responsibilities in advance immediately picked up the bamboo tube on the table, opened the cork of the bottle, and ignored the choking smell inside, staring at the door, waiting for the next order.
"Woo~wu~wu~"
As the ghosts got closer and closer, the whining sound of the cold wind became louder and louder. All the old and young people in the ancestral hall did not dare to take a breath.
Hou Jiuming, on the other hand, stared wide-eyed as the ghost approached step by step.
Fifty meters, thirty meters, twenty meters, ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two, one. When the green light completely entered the ancestral hall, Hou Jiuming immediately screamed.
"Splash~"
The villagers, who had been highly concentrated, poured out the things in their hands without any hesitation after hearing the order.
Chicken blood, dog blood, and child urine, with a pungent smell, instantly covered everything in front of the crowd like a goddess scattering flowers, leaving no gaps.
In addition to these, there were some people who also threw the peach wood sticks in their hands.
The rushing chicken blood and black dog blood hit the target first.
In the middle of the originally empty main hall of the ancestral hall, white smoke suddenly came out, as if something was covered in a highly corrosive solution, making a "sizzling~sizzling~" sound.
At the same time as white smoke was rising, a very sharp scream that could not be distinguished between men and women was heard.
