文1文2, Qingzhou Prefecture, is a squad leader. He is tall and big, and has great martial arts skills. One day, his father-in-law's birthday came. My father-in-law's family was in a village outside, and the whole family brought generous gifts and went to pay their birthday in a carriage. Halfway through the road, the sky that was clear just now suddenly roared with strong winds, dark clouds covered the top, lightning and thunder were roaring, and it was almost raining. The coachman Liu Shi raised his whip and rushed to the road... At this time, a "man in red" with a sharp-mouthed monkey cheeks on the roadside was blocked in panic and said his name was Yuzi, and went to Liujiazhuang to visit relatives and begged him to take a walk.
Liu Shi had to stop and ask his master Wu Zhong, who liked to stand up for justice and often helped others.
When he saw this scene, he naturally helped, but the wife next to him was a steady and intelligent woman. She never talked much about her every day and was very virtuous.
She lifted the curtain and glanced at the "person" more, with an ugly face.
said to the husband: "Helping others is a good thing, but people's hearts are unpredictable! I don't look like a good person for my wife! I heard that robbers often appear recently, and this place is remote and dangerous. It's better to be careful when you go out!"
Ke Wu Zhong heard this and laughed: "Madam, you're too worried! Could it be that it's better to be careful!" You forgot my identity. I am a yamen leader. When the robbers heard my name, they were frightened and they didn't have time to hide. They dared to move forward. If he was a robber, I would not have any effort. I caught him and made meritorious! This is a good thing! "
After saying that, Liu Shi asked him to get on the carriage. The "man" got on the carriage with great gratitude and sat in the corner.
Liu Shi whipped the horse and urged him to move...
At this moment, suddenly, a thunder sounded and the earth shook. The "man" looked ugly and his body trembled involuntarily.
Wu Zhong saw this scene and remembered his wife's words just now, and couldn't help laughing.
With this courage, you can still be a robber! Rest assured, close your eyes and rest assured.
After a while, it was raining heavily, and the carriage ran wildly in the rain...
The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and it seemed that it would be impossible to stop for a while. Strangely, the Thunder God did not leave around the carriage for a long time.
Wu Zhong's wife Wu was so scared that she was so scared that she held her husband tightly. Wu Zhong, who was brave, comforted her with kind words.
At this time, the "person" Yuzi kept bowing his head and said with a flattering smile: "It's raining heavily now and it's hard to walk on the road. Why don't we find a place to rest and wait until the rain stops before leaving. What do you think?"
He looked at Wu Zhong expectantly.
Wu Zhong felt that it was reasonable. It was still early anyway, but there was no place to shelter from the wilderness? I had to continue moving forward...
After a while, the coachman Liu Shi, who was poured like a chicken, wiped the rain on his face, pointed to the front excitedly and said, "There is a temple in front, we can go there to hide from the rain." The remaining three people were very happy after hearing this.
When we got there, several people got off the carriage and entered the temple. The temple was covered with weeds and messy, and there were spider webs everywhere.
There is an unknown statue of god who is also covered in dust.
The face that Yuko, who saw the statue of the god, was panicked.
The couple bowed and saw that the coachman Liu Shi was soaked all over, sneezing constantly, and cleaned up briefly.
saw a pile of dry firewood in the corner, so he asked him to pick up the firewood to set up the fire, sit down and rest, take off his wet robe and roast it dry.
The rain was getting heavier and heavier outside, and the thunder was rolling, and the thunder god surrounded the dilapidated temple for a long time and refused to leave.
Wu Zhong looked at it silently, worried that such heavy rain would be afraid of mountain torrents.
I felt very strange. It is said that there must be monsters where Lei Gong goes! But there are only four living people in this temple, where does the monster come from?
After a long time, Lei Gong left and finally calmed down.
That Yuko breathed a long sigh of relief.
The rain is still falling, and Wu Zhong plans to leave when the rain is light. Besides, Liu Shi's clothes have not dried yet.
Several people are drowsy.
I don’t know how long it took, but the rain finally became lighter. A few people walked out and got on the carriage and continued moving forward...
Two hours later, they finally came to their father-in-law’s house.
The Yuko did not leave and said with a smile: "I am very grateful. Since I have arrived at the door of the old man, in order to express my gratitude, I will also go to pay my birthday to the old man and have a banquet before leaving. I will be hungry." He patted his stomach.
Wu Zhong's wife was about to say something, but Wu Zhong happily agreed and took him in.
His father-in-law and brother-in-law are businessmen. They like to make friends on weekdays and make many friends. Many relatives and friends come. The voices are boiling and very lively.
rush to celebrate his birthday. The table was full of delicious food and wine, with a strong fragrance.
The group sat down and ate and had a good conversation. After a while, they were all drunk.
till night, everyone left one after another reluctantly.
Wu Zhong saw that Na Yuzi was drunk and fell asleep on the table.
It seems that he can only stay here. He ordered the coachman Liu Shi to help him in and go to bed.
Wu Zhong was also drunk and was supported by his wife and maid and went into the house to sleep.
The next morning, Wu Zhong woke up and remembered the guest Yuko who stayed overnight. He came to the house where he lived and saw Liu Shi lying on the bed, and was stunned.
What about Yuzi? Liu Shi told him that Yuko had drunk too much last night and vomited so much that she felt so angry that she saw that he had drunk too much that he didn't dare to leave, so she rested with him. As soon as it was dawn in the morning, he hurriedly said goodbye
Wu Zhong heard that he always felt strange and didn't know what was going on.
The couple left here and returned home. According to the rules, it was time for the coachman Liu Shi to go to the stable to feed the horses.
But he looks like nothing is wrong, and then look at it.
Wu Zhong asked him to go to the stable to feed the horses, but when he went out, he was confused and didn't know where to go, and went straight to the opposite direction...
"Oh! You really drank too much last night and haven't sobered up yet! This is the direction of the stable."
Wu Zhong said angrily.
Liu Shi woke up and rushed straight there...
A few days later, his wife said to Wu Zhong with a serious expression: "Have you noticed that since she came back from my mother's house, the coachman Liu Shi has been wrong. His behavior and words are completely different from before. I don't know what's going on?"
Wu Zhong was feeling the same, but he didn't know what was going on.
Taoist will change when smiling, nothing strange.
But his wife is always vaguely uneasy.
There is a youngest servant in the mansion. Everyone calls him Xing'er, who is only twelve years old.
His father died early, and his mother finally raised him alone with great difficulty, but she fell seriously ill and died.
Before his death, he begged Wu Zhong to take Xing'er in as a servant so that he can have a place to settle down.
On weekdays, the couple treat him very well, and the servants in the mansion like him very much.
He usually has the best relationship with Liu Shi, and the two get along like a father and son.
On that day, Xing'er actually disappeared. Wu Zhong and his wife ordered people to search everywhere, but only found a shoe that fell to the ground. I felt that he was in trouble and had no results in searching, so I had to repay the official.
The government sent people to search for it, but it was fruitless.
A living person disappeared like this, and everyone in the mansion was very sad.
What surprised Wu Zhong was that Liu Shi and Xing'er were as close as father and son, but Xing'er was lost, and everyone was very sad, but he was as weird as if nothing had happened.
was very puzzled. His wife also found it strange, but she didn't know what was going on.
Next, Wu Zhong felt that Liu Shi was becoming more and more weird.
One night, he came back from the yamen, and it was already late at this time.
He was afraid of disturbing his family, so he wanted to go to the stable not far away and stayed up with Liu Shi for one night.
He came to the stable and saw the lights in the house and a strange sound came from it, as if it was the cry of a chicken, and was stunned.
licked the window paper and looked at it.
I saw the "willow stone", and my eyes were cold and I was grabbing a bloody chicken to eat...
The chicken was dying and was still alive, and it started to eat... It looked very scary.
The brave Wu Zhong was so scared that he shivered. He felt that this "Liu Shi" was not a human being. He was furious when thinking that Xing'er's death was related to him.
broke into the window and slashed it away...
The "Liushi" that was eating happily, caught off guard was hit, and the pain was unbearable. The chicken in his hand fell to the ground involuntarily. Turn around and run...
Wu Zhong chased after him...
After a while, he chased after him and slashed hard... This knife hit the vital point.
"Liu Shi" screamed and fell to the ground, blood splattered... She struggled for a few times and died. It turned into a red snail that looked like a wheel, looking terrifying.
It turns out that this snail spirit ate Liushi and turned into Liushi. It hurt people in the mansion and ate Xing'er.
Wu Zhong finally understood and remembered what his wife reminded him on the road...but he himself...
Because of his carelessness, he killed two lives! It’s too late to regret!
He burned the red snail indignation... an unpleasant smell came from the air.
is not very good, the snails have turned into ashes.
After Wu Zhong returned, he ordered people to search carefully in the yard and found Xing'er's skeleton in the dry well in the backyard.
found Liu Shi's skeleton at his father-in-law's house again. He was very sad and tears burst out from his eyes, so he had to bury them well.
