Hundred Ghosts

"What did that kid do?"

"No matter what, don't be disrespectful to the emperor." Lin Zi patted him lightly on the head.

That gesture was so intimate that He Huai reached out and pinched his cheeks unconsciously.

Lin Zi froze for a moment, brushed his hand away, and was about to sneak out of the door while the shopkeeper was not paying attention, when he took a closer look, he saw two servants standing at the door, one with a spatula in his hand and the other with a pot. The timing and the place are wrong, it seems that the posture is preparing to cook a dish for the guests on the spot... and the shopkeeper can't wait to stare at him.

Anyway, slipping out by the front door seemed impossible.

After He Huai poured himself three pots of tea, he finally had a plan, "Go to the second floor."

Seeing the two of them chattering, the scholar looked puzzled, "Why are you chattering together?"

"It's all right." Lin Zi felt guilty, "Where shall we stay tonight?"

"The room facing the north corner, we came too late, there is only one room left, but there are windows, please forgive me, I will book two for you."

"It doesn't matter, don't share the room with each other, it will be fine for us to sleep together." They looked at each other and said together, thinking in their hearts that this is simply wishful thinking!

Looking down from the second floor, there is a backyard with sundries below. The place under their house happened to be a corner, and there was a pile of firewood inside.

If you jump down, you shouldn't die, but it will alarm other people.

He Huai said nonchalantly, "It's okay, it's not a big problem, I'll jump first, and I'll follow you later, so it won't surprise other people."

"it is good."

He Huai turned over and jumped off the window sill, kicked his feet on the wall, and landed firmly outside the pile of firewood.

Lin Zi squinted his eyes for a visual inspection, thinking that this guy is too far away from where he landed?

Seeing that he was still not coming down, He Huai quickly waved his hand, signaling him to jump down quickly.

Lin Zi's heart skipped a beat, ready to kick on the wall like He Huai did.

The big deal is to land head first.

He gritted his teeth, fell off the window sill, and fell straight down, unable to react to kicking the wall!

When he thought he was going to hit the ground with his head, his waist tightened, and he was restrained by something and pulled towards He Huai. He Huai's reaction was much faster than him, and he hugged him on the ground. There is nothing.

But no doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

"What was that just now?" Lin Zi asked him.

"Tree roots." He Huai scratched his head embarrassingly.

"..."

The outer wall was easy to turn over. He Huai let him ride on his shoulders first, sent him to sit on the wall, and rolled over firmly by himself, and then stretched out his hand to catch him down.

The tacit understanding between the two of them was incomparable, and they ran away as soon as their feet hit the ground.

He Huai took a special look, the city gate was sealed, and the walls were covered with portraits of the two of them, and more than a dozen patrolling soldiers were walking around the wall—fortunately, they were outside and had a chance to escape.

"Where are we going?" He Huai spread his hands, "Look, this place is so far away from the capital, and even such a remote inn has a wanted portrait of the two of us posted on it. From now on, we can only sleep in wild temples and ruined temples!"

Lin Zi rubbed his hands together and shivered, "Although it's spring now, the snow and ice at the foot of the mountain haven't melted yet. Sleeping outside is probably going to kill you..."

"Forget it, take one step at a time, tonight... we can't find a place to rest tonight, let's choose a place with few people, and then we can move forward."

This is also helpless, the terrain here is open, the wind is strong, and the face is cold and painful, as if being scratched by a small ice knife. He is not afraid of anything with rough skin and thick flesh. Lin Zi can't hold it, and it is inevitable that he will not be frozen to death will get sick.

Feng Chong's face was blowing, He Huai walked in front, shielding him from the wind, Lin Zi shrank behind him, and heard the "beep" sound of the wind blowing the wood...

After walking for half an hour, they were lucky enough to come across a boulder that just blocked the wind, and the two of them sat down here to rest.

Lin Zi was tired and sleepy, and soon fell asleep. He Huai was afraid that there would be some wild beast nearby, so he kept guarding him.

It wasn't until dawn on the second day that Lin Zi didn't seem to be waking up. Looking carefully, he found that his cheeks were flushed and his breathing was rough, clearly a sign of fever.

He Huai panicked, this is not good, if you don't hurry up and treat him, your life may be in danger!

Unless...he thought of Dr. Cai.

Those injured by the long ghost were either dead or disabled, and the fisherman seemed to be recovering well under Dr. Cai's care.

Since he has this ability, Lin Zi's fever shouldn't be a problem.

I don't know where the arrest warrants for the two of them have spread... Even if they are reported to the Yamen by that time, at least they have a few words, and it is not so cheap to outsiders.

Fortunately, the two of them couldn't find their way, so they instinctively walked towards the small fishing village, which was not far from the village.

Taking off her clothes and wrapping them around him, He Huai picked him up and walked quickly towards the village.

The fisherwoman was sitting in Dr. Cai's pharmacy with her baby in her arms. Dr. Cai had just returned from the city to exchange medicinal materials. He saw that the two people on the wanted notice posted on the city wall became more and more familiar. The gold man was kidnapped by the guy worth two hundred and fifty.

Dr. Cai thought that something was wrong, the relationship between the two seemed pretty good!

He brought back a stomach full of questions, and when the fisherwoman came over, he asked her, "What's the origin of those two people?"

The fisherwoman told him everything, and then asked him, "What's the matter?"

"It's all right." Dr. Cai forced a smile.

Fortunately, this place is remote, and the reward order was not posted here... It is also fortunate that they left early, and I don't know if they are still in the capital, have they been arrested?

Not allowing him to think about it, the wind chimes at the door rang, and the people he had just thought of were standing in front of him one by one...

Doctor Cai rubbed his eyes.

"Doctor, Lin Zi has a fever, please help him! He is worth ten thousand... um."

Doctor Cai hastily covered his mouth.

Seeing the two of them, the peasant woman was both surprised and happy, and then turned to touch Lin Zi's forehead worriedly, "A few days ago, you insisted on going to the capital to find work, but look, your body was exhausted... Eh! This forehead is really Horribly hot!"

The patient is the most important thing, Dr. Cai asked him to put the person on the bed, and turned around to fetch water and medicine. His movements were a little louder, and he woke up the baby who was sleeping soundly in the arms of the fisherwoman. As soon as the baby woke up, "Wow wow wow" burst into tears, the voice was so loud and noisy, it hurt my ears!

The fisherwoman got up and hugged him while walking, humming a little tune, but he was still crying, showing no sign of stopping.

"Oh, to be honest, I've seen noisy children, but I've never seen your family crying so much." Dr. Cai wrung a hot towel and put it on Lin Zi's forehead, and couldn't help complaining.

"Doctor, don't mind, he just didn't sleep well recently, so he just cried for a while, and now the child is very good!" The fisherwoman coaxed and said.

He Huai saw that something was wrong with this child, and there was something ghostly about him, presumably he had a relationship with some ghost?

There are good and bad for adults, but harmful for children with unstable souls. Of course, He Huai couldn't let it go, so he asked the fisherwoman, "What's wrong with the little guy?"

The fisherwoman sighed, "Don't talk about it, young master, this child is so annoying. He doesn't sleep every night and cries all the time. He only sleeps for a while during the day. We haven't rested for several days... just now he was I cried because I couldn't sleep well."

"No way, we are very obedient holding him." He Huai didn't quite believe it, "Could it be sick?"

Dr. Cai waved his hand, "No, no, he has no other problems except that he is a little weak from the cold. Listen, he howls more fiercely than you! He just wants to lose his temper."

"Impossible?" He Huai clapped his hands in disbelief, "He gave me a hug."

As soon as the child landed on He Huai's body, he cried even more vigorously. His small body had great energy, and he straightened his back with punches and kicks. He Huai almost couldn't catch him!

So he had to put him back into the fisherwoman's arms.

I know that my body is yin, and it is true that I am not very popular with children on weekdays, but this is the first time I have seen someone who resists me so much.

He Huai was very depressed. When he rescued him before, he was hugged by himself most of the time.

However, he did feel that the child had a ghostly aura. Was there something dirty that frightened him, which made him cry so hard?

Is it a child ghost?This kind of ghost usually likes to play tricks on children!

But child ghosts appear at night, and are rarely seen during the day, and children don't cry as much during the day as they do at night.

The fisherwoman weighed and weighed him, and accidentally dropped the tiger hat on the ground. He Huai picked it up and was about to put it on his head again. Seeing his limp lanugo, he immediately understood.

"Has the child's fetal hair never been cut?"

The fisherwoman touched it, "It looks like it has never been cut."

His mother had passed away a long time ago, and the people around him wanted him to die soon, how could someone cut his fetal hair?

"He should have been frightened by the hair-eating ghost, and he'll be fine if he shaves his head bald."

The fetal hair must be cut, otherwise it will attract hair-eating ghosts.

Hair eaters like to eat baby hair and the hair of unmarried women, and then make a ghost relationship with them, so the baby's first hair should not be thrown away for convenience, it must be disposed of properly.

If you want to have a relationship with the ghost, you need to cut your hair indoors, and then use a torch to burn off the fetal hair, so that the hair-eating ghost will not be able to eat the fetal hair, and you will not be able to form a ghost relationship with the baby.

"Really?" The fisherwoman obviously still didn't believe it, why don't you watch it, Dr. Cai?

Doctor Cai is reasonable, "It's okay, you can try as he said, isn't it just a haircut, anyway, there is not much loss, and when I decoct Lin Zi's medicine later, I can put it directly into the medicine furnace. It still doesn't work, the next time I go to the city, I'll take him into the city and ask the doctor in the city to take a look."

The fisherwoman nodded hesitantly, "Then...then I'll find a hairdresser I know well later."

"Tsk, what barber are you looking for?" He Huai patted his chest, "Leave this kind of thing to me!"
